Martial Sage

On the bustling streets of Yangzhou, such a team in armor and fighting suddenly appeared, attracting many people to stop and hide from the side of the street to watch.

Between the two rows of imposing soldiers, the luxurious boxes on the eight carriages are particularly eye-catching.

Many people looked at the red flower on the horse's head and the thick leather velvet under the box, and they talked a lot.

"Tsk tusk, you look at the row of noodles, bound by yellow silk, guarded by a hundred soldiers, presumably this box must be a rare treasure that is hard to find in thousands of years."

"Hi! This must be the precious jade glass that the high official of the Tang Mansion wants to bid for! The governor himself opened the way, you can't go wrong, you can't go wrong!"

"It's more than a clear way. I heard that for this auction, we personally sent invitation letters to major merchant families at this time. Presumably, the entire Yangzhou wealthy businessmen will gather."

"Isn't it! For the past three years, the Zheng family has been convening this treasure-watching conference, but I didn't expect to be replaced by this high official today."

In the whispers, the carriage slowly moved forward towards the most famous Baoxuan Pavilion in Yangzhou.

Someone in the crowd looked at the carriage line, gritted their teeth, turned and disappeared into the alley.

This person is in charge of the Zheng family. This time, he has lobbied twenty wealthy businessmen, large and small, and has exhausted all his coercive and profitable methods.

Those wealthy merchants who are relatively small and well-known naturally know the position of the Zheng family in Yangzhou, and their own merchants have to rely on the help of this shipbuilding family, so they naturally dare not go against it.

But things are often not absolute, and there are also a few big wealthy businessmen who have taken a fancy to the business opportunities of this city full of wind and rain, and there will be so easy to let go.

Even a foreign businessman threatened that Yangzhou is not only the Zheng family growing up, but also Jiang Xiaowu and Yu Sanniang's fleet, if they are pressed in a hurry, they will tear their face with the Zheng family.

It's about the life and death of the Zheng family, and it's not easy to be in charge, with a gentle smile on his face, shaking hands and making peace.

As soon as he left the mansion, he went straight to Jiang Xiaowu's mansion, trying to pull this one on, coercing these wealthy businessmen to buy Tang Hao's colored glaze.

But it just happened that by accident, the housekeeper Zheng directly ate behind the door, and Jiang Xiaowu disappeared.

Thinking of what happened along the way, the manager felt a bit of fire, and walked towards the area of ​​Aunt Yu's merchant ship with a bit of a tooth.

For the merchant ships in Yangzhou, the division of specifications is extremely clear.

The craftsmen under Yu Sanniang mostly suppressed the Zheng family in the technique of nailing and tenoning, and Jiang Xiao worked hard to make more big ships for voyages.

Jiang Xiaowu's clan builds more frigate boats, is good at shuttle torrents, and delivers some important goods. They are even better in the art of airtight cabins.

As for the Zheng family, it is between the two, which has its own advantage in keel construction. Relying on the power of General Chaotang Yan, it is inevitable that there is a sense of overbearing. Over the years, it has occupied a lot of two docks and attracted a lot of middle-level transactions.

As soon as he stepped into Yu's three-year land boundary, he was greeted by the strange eyes of the wharf porters, hot, even with a hint of hatred.

The three masters in charge of shipbuilding are vying and fighting, and it is inevitable that these short and long workers will stick to each other.

Maybe it was to fight for that cent of business, maybe it was for some trivial things, and couldn't swallow the bad breath.

When there is friction and conflict, the two parties have to come forward to solve the problem with laughter. Therefore, the long-term and short-term workers below are very familiar with the face of the Zheng family.

Feeling the hostility in his eyes, the Zheng family steward was like a man on his back, a little uneasy in his heart.

This time, he went alone for the Zheng family's big plan, so he had to bite the bullet and walked to a boat moored by the dock.

"Yeah! Zheng Jiali is in charge? But I got muddled and went to the wrong place?"

Cold words and cold rain came from the bow of the boat next to the big ship.

Manager Zheng Jiali raised his head slightly and looked over.

One person, with a long whip in his hand, covered in bronze tendons, and wearing a half-old open-chested gown, was staring at himself.

A smile appeared on his face for an instant, and the manager of the Zheng family greeted him with cupped hands from afar.

"Huang Guanshi, fortunate to have a good time!"

"Can you talk to Patriarch Yu for a few words?"

The manager of the Zheng family knew in his heart that this surnamed Huang was a celebrity under Yu Sanniang. He had a strong physique and was fierce as a tiger in fights, completely in a desperate posture.

It is precisely because of this person that in the past year, no one dared to make trouble on the pier on the border between the Zheng family and the Yu family.

If it hadn't been for Yu Sanniang at this time, I was afraid that the Zheng family steward would not have any intersection with this person.

Huang Guanshi squinted slightly at the Zheng's housekeeper, with a penny and pestle on the boat deck.

"I have something to put on hold and say."

"Sanniang has something to do, so I have no time to talk to you."

After listening to this, the Zheng family manager secretly groaned.

The auction will start tomorrow. If you can’t see Yu Sanniang today, where is there any time to inform the big merchants under him?

If this is the case, if Tang Hao builds a ship, General Yan's position in the Yangzhou generation will not be preserved, and the Zheng family will definitely be implicated by that time.

The Zheng family manager smiled, leaning forward, the smile on his face became fascinating.

"Guan Shi Huang, you and I are the masters of taking people's money and doing things for others."

"The Patriarch has a few words to bring to Sanniang Yu, and he has repeatedly told the old man to bring it personally. You can do it for your convenience."

Snapped.

A loud whip was pumped in the air, and a huge crackling sound exploded in the air.

"I don't want to say the words a second time!"

"Come on again, this one whip, but you want to see blood."

A low voice was heard on the dock at dusk.

The long-term and day-time workers who had just looked forward to throw down the goods in their hands and slowly gathered.
