Lord of the House

Vol 4 Chapter 27: Variety

After drinking in the Gu Mansion, the big trees transplanted on both sides of the chariot and horse sidewalk connected to the Donghuamen official road are all shaded. A bush, a fluffy weed.

New houses on North and South Long Street and Back Street have been built one after another. In the past three months, more than 130 merchants have moved from Quyang Town to Hekou. The opening is frequent until every three days, and the estuary has the appearance of a town, which is divided into nearly half of the prosperity of Quyang Town.

Zhao Qinmin sat on the carriage and looked at the estuary where the new houses were lined up in front of him. The lights of the corner tower could compete with the bright moon in the sky, and the dozens of surrounding houses on the west side were like fortresses. ?

After the Qujiatong bandit case, the limited land within the estuary fence was no longer sufficient for merchants to build shops or for wealthy gentry to build private gardens. The scale of the Hekou town has expanded from the fence, but the fence is still retained, dividing the estuary into two areas: the inner and outer areas.

Lin Jingzhong, Cao Zi'ang, Zhao Hu, Ge Cunxiong, Zhao Qingshan, Lin Xulu, Chang Sun Geng, Sun Jingxuan, Sun Jingtang, Zhao Shuhan, Ge Siyu and others, as well as the people of Hekou, were eagerly waiting at the south gate of the fence, waiting for Lin Fu to return. So many people blocked the south gate of the fence to three floors inside and three floors outside.

Lin Bie sat on the front of the car, sat up straight and bowed to the people and the people who greeted him at the south gate, and said, "I've been tired of waiting for a long time, Lin Bie apologizes here."

Zhao Shuhan walked forward with a big smile and said, "I thought you would come back drunk in the Gu Mansion, but looking at your appearance, you can accompany us to drink more..."

Lin Fu said with a smile: "If you don't think I'm so rude, it's okay to accompany you to drink until dawn..."

"Go to Siyu's new house, we have prepared wine and food," Zhao Shuhan said. "You don't have to worry about hurting the beautiful woman in your house."

"What about Mr. Wu, Mr. Ge, and Zhao Zuigui'er?" Lin Fu asked, "Zhao Zuigui'er is an alcoholic. I haven't invited him to drink for a long time. Don't forget him. How many tables of wine are enough for us?" He bowed to Zhao Qinmin again, "Please also invite Mr. Zhao to come over and have two more..."

"I'll go home first, and I'll come over to give you a toast later." Zhao Qinmin said, he knew that these people were waiting here because Lin Fu was alone. Lin Fu invited him to refuse inconveniently, and he didn't want to go there. I just left it in the corner and was left out in the cold, thinking about going home for a while, and then going to toast a round of wine is to deal with the errand.

Lin Bie didn't embarrass Zhao Qinmin and asked him to go home first to reunite with his family.

Lin Fu saw the maid next to the Seventh Madam looking out at the entrance of the alley, and was anxious to see Sister Yingxiu, but Zhao Shuhan, Ge Siyu and others were very kind, so he couldn't say that he was in a hurry to see "Auntie" Let's go; he also greeted Sun Jingxuan and his cousins ​​Sun Jing, and asked Yun Xiacao whether the journey to Yanjing went smoothly.

Sun Jingxuan and his cousins ​​Sun Jingxuan left for half a month to return from Yanjing.

After the **** battle at Jiyang, the East China Sea bandits withdrew from the Taihu Lake Basin, and the prefectures and counties along the Taihu Lake were extremely short of wood, ceramics, iron, paper, tung oil and other materials. Sun Jingxuan took advantage of the fact that the Xihe Society still had some capital and there was still some time before the shipment in Autumn Cao, so he purchased a lot of supplies in Jiangning and entered Taihu Lake for sale together with the ships under the names of Jiyun Club and Lin Family Warehouse.

When passing through Jiyang, Sun Jingxuan couldn't catch up with Lin Fu's schedule, so he couldn't see it.

The party struggle between the DPRK and China is fierce, and it is difficult for those who gain the upper hand in the party struggle to maintain long-term prosperity.

The Sun family is not greedy for temporary wealth, but only hopes that Xihe will provide long-term shelter for the poor and lowly Xihe boatmen and sailors.

The fundamental interests of the Sun family and the Xihehui lie in this, and it is impossible for them to be too aggressive in politics, and it is impossible to gamble politically. Otherwise, no matter how many times they succeed, only one disappointment is enough to break the Xihehui into the group. In the eternal abyss.

Although Lin Fu and Gu Wuchen both won decisive and brilliant victories in the battle of Hekou, Sun Jingxuan had nothing to regret or regret for withdrawing in advance. .

Of course, Sun Jingxuan didn't want Xihe to get caught in the vortex of too deep political/political struggle, but it wasn't that he didn't want to maintain a good personal relationship with Lin Fu.

Putting aside the interests of the Xihe Society, although Lin Fu's behavior was displeased by Qingliu Shilin, Sun Jingxuan quite appreciated and agreed.

For example, Lin Tie rescued the disaster on Xisha Island and vigorously promoted local resettlement of refugees on Xisha Island. Although the local people resisted, most of the boatmen and sailors belonging to the Xihe Association were guests living in Jiangning, Shanxihe County, which was rejected by the locals. People, Sun Jingxuan naturally agrees with Lin Bie in terms of personal emotional standpoint. In addition, there are a few people who have the courage to lead a lone army to move out of the city and fight for several days when the East China Sea bandits are attacking. Not going back?

It was Lin Fu who was not afraid of life and death and led his own army to move out of the city to contain the East China Sea pirates, that made Jiyang County the only county where the East China Sea pirates made a large number of crossings this time, but did not loot and loot. Maybe Qingliu Shilin won't feel anything, the people of Jiyang County will be grateful to Lin Fu, and all other people who have lost confidence in the government will naturally have a good impression of Lin Fusheng.

After the **** battle in Jiyang, an obvious change was that many merchant ships and merchants from Pingjiang Prefecture to Jiangning preferred to stop at the estuary.

Another obvious change is that after the **** battle in Jiyang, the ships under the names of Jiyun Club and Linjia Warehouse entered Taihu Lake to sell urgently needed local materials, and also tried to purchase local tea, rice grain, sugar, cloth yarn, silk and satin. When it comes to other products, local exclusion has been greatly weakened, and some local forces have even taken the initiative to cooperate with Jiyun Club and Lin's Warehouse, the most important of which are the Taihu Water Village forces that Lin Fu had come into contact with before raising grain.

Sun Jingxuan could touch and feel these changes.

On the surface, it seems that Jiyunshe and Linjia Warehouse can enter the Taihu Lake Basin to purchase materials. This attack by East China Sea bandits has dealt a great blow to the aristocratic forces and the forces of the water villages along the Taihu Lake. The commercial system along the Taihu Lake has been severely damaged, but this is not the key. Sexual factors, fundamentally speaking, the **** battle of Jiyang had a profound impact on the prefectures and counties along the Taihu Lake.

In the past, except for the autumn water time, the Xihe Club was entrusted by Jiangning merchants to transport the goods to the counties along the Taihu Lake for sale. He could not receive business from merchants in Pingjiang, Danyang, and Huzhou, but Sun Jingxuan had some contact with the water village forces in Taihu Lake, and he knew them well.

Lin Fu had come into contact with many Taihu water village forces who had raised food before. They had no status in the court and the opposition or in the official circles, but they belonged to the armed forces in the village. They were unwilling to be reduced to lake pirates, and even more unwilling to be involved with East China Sea bandits, but they were not enough to resist the invasion and harassment of East China Sea bandits, and the government did not trust them and even took precautions against them.

Such an embarrassing position made these Shuizhai forces feel good about Lin Bie, who had previously extorted them in the name of "raising grain", and were willing to maintain a relationship. This has nothing to do with Lin Tie's position as the chief inspector, and the Taihu water village forces have nothing to do with Qingliu Shilin, who is the representative of the aristocratic family in the local area. Anji Meixi's sniping at pirates, splitting troops to defend Xisha Island, and **** battles under Jiyang City have become more and more popular among the people, winning the favor of the Taihu Water Village forces.

This is the key factor for Jiyun Club and Lin's warehouse to penetrate into Taihu Lake.

Sun Jingxuan followed the crowd to the new house of Ge Siyu Ge's family in Hekou, and looked at the back of Lin Bie, who was sitting on the soft sedan chair and surrounded by the crowd. After thinking about it, if he really had the guts to take a gamble, he would bet his chips on it. Lin Fu might be a small business with big profits. It is a pity that the 2,000 members of the Xihe Society who have no social status and the nearly 10,000 family members who are waiting to feed, make him unable to let go of this kind of gambling.

Of course, Wen Pei is married to Lin Jingzhong as his wife. What does Lin Fu need? As long as it does not involve sensitive political and opposition disputes, Sun Jingxuan will do his best to assist. For example, the resettlement of refugees in Xisha Island requires a large amount of supplies from outside, whether it is Jiyun. Neither the club nor the Lin family had enough boats, and the Xihe Association provided great help, which also kept the two sides in good relations.

In Ge Siyu's new house, they drank and drank until the morning light. Drunk, with blurry eyes, she lay in front of the bed and saw that the figure in front of her looked like a moon. She was about to hold her hand, but she fell weakly on the head of the bed and fell asleep dizzy.

Su Mei's hand was held by Lin Bie~www.wuxiaspot.com~ A heart was throbbing like a dangling heart in his throat. When he saw that he fell asleep without realizing it, he burst into laughter and wanted to kick him. one foot.

"It's true, I'm too bad for Sister Su Mei. When he wakes up tomorrow, I have to chop off his dirty hand." Xiaoman smiled and moved Lin Bie's dead body to the bed, and took his robe off. After taking it off, he undid the bandage on his injured leg, and to see how the wound healed, he was going to clean the wound and apply medicine again.

Su Mei looked at the scar on Lin Bie's leg and felt pain in her heart, but she didn't care to avoid suspicion, so she helped Xiaoman to untie the bandage.

Liu Yue'er brought in the hot water to wash Lin Fu's face, and saw Su Mei accompanying Xiao Man to treat Lin Fu's wound, she hurriedly said: "How can you let Miss Su do such dirty work? I can do it with Xiao Man. Now," he complained distressedly when he saw that Lin Fu had fallen asleep drunk, "It's true, the leg injury is not good, so I dragged him to drink so much wine, and no one can control him."

Su Mei put her hand away in embarrassment. Although the defense between men and women in the Leji household is not that serious, it is very inappropriate for her to walk into Lin Bie's bedroom, not to mention that she has to touch his bare/naked skin to help deal with it. Wound.

Su Mei's face was a little hot under the lamp, and she said, "It's getting late, I should go back to rest."

After the estuary became more and more prosperous, the family of Fanlou and Fans set up a property in the estuary, and Sumei also set up a courtyard in the estuary, and lived outside the city from time to time.

Xiaoman looked at Xi Wei Chenguang outside the window, and said with a playful smile, "It's still very early!"
