Pirate Song

And Zhao Yuju even added fuel to the fire and told everyone about Gao Huaiyuan's joining the army vividly. Everyone was fascinated by what they heard. They were all young men, and none of them were bloody! If it weren't for the fact that his family didn't agree,

Some people really followed Gao Huaiyuan to Daye, but now they see that Gao Huaiyuan and Huang Yan Zhouhao have achieved great successes, and they are still huddled in Shaoxing city doing nothing.

Then I got a little excited.

Sure enough, before the Spring Festival, two people found Gao Huaiyuan and wanted to leave Shaoxing with Gao Huaiyuan to go to Daye for some experience. They said that they had obtained the consent of their family members. Although Gao Huaiyuan was happy, he still hesitated.

, after all, these two friends have no foundation compared to Huang Yan and Zhou Hao, and as friends, Gao Huaiyuan didn't know if they could obey his instructions like his subordinates Li Ruohu and others, so he had to postpone talking about this matter after the New Year.

, take advantage of these few days to think about it!

Different from Gao Huaiyuan's leisurely life, Gao Jianqian lived an extremely busy life these days. He kept going in and out of some deep houses and compounds in the city all day long, constantly visiting the young men who had been beaten up by Gao Huaiyuan, and spending money.

Send some expensive gifts and apologize for Gao Huaiyuan's behavior.

For this matter, these young men came home to complain to their father. Seeing their precious sons being beaten as hard as a pig's head, of course these powerful men refused to let it go and came to Gao Jian one after another to argue with Gao Jian.

Although he is the general magistrate of Shaoxing, there are some people he cannot afford to offend. Even if Gao Huaiyuan is justified, he still has to apologize to them.

This made Gao Jian very annoyed, and he became a little angry when he saw Gao Huaiyuan, and he couldn't help but alienate Gao Huaiyuan a little, which made Gao Huairen secretly happy.

However, everything has a bad side, and naturally there is a good side. Someone soon revealed Gao Huaiyuan's identity and found out that he was the third son of Gao Jian, the general judge of Shaoxing Prefecture, and Gao Jian's third son was on the street.

The news of the beating of these dandy boys spread quickly in Shaoxing City. Many ordinary people secretly applauded Gao Jian, thinking that Gao Jian was much better than other officials. At least he had a good son who dared to fight against injustice.

, which gave Shaoxing people a bad breath.

In this way, Gao Jian won a good reputation, and his popularity immediately surpassed that of Magistrate Mei and others. This incident also brought some benefits to Gao Jian, at least it will make Gao Jian a good leader in Shaoxing in the future.

When I was an official, when I was dealing with civil affairs, I received the support of many people and it became much easier to do things. This can be regarded as a great blessing among misfortunes!

However, as Gao Jian expected, after the eldest young master of the Su family, Su Dingjun, was hit by Gao Huaiyuan and his nose was crooked, the marriage, which had finally been negotiated through someone else, was completely ruined. The Su family would never agree to it again.

Their daughter married this thug-like Gao Huaiyuan, which made Gao Jian sigh many times and complained to Gao Huaiyuan for a while.

Gao Huaiyuan pretended to have a look of regret, and snickered a lot in his heart, so he just laughed it off and continued to go about his business.

Although Gao Huaiyuan's main purpose of returning to Shaoxing for the New Year this time was to visit relatives, he also had some other things to do. Before he left Daye, Huang Zhen had approached him and asked Gao Huaiyuan to come to Shaoxing when he returned to Shaoxing this time.

Helping to acquire a restaurant as a bridgehead for Zuixianlou to move eastward. This is inseparable from Shaoxing’s geographical location, because Shaoxing is adjacent to Lin’an, Hangzhou, to the north, and Qingyuan Mansion (Mingzhou is also known as Ningbo in later generations) to the east.

Located in the hinterland of Zhejiang and Zhejiang provinces, it was one of the most prosperous cities in the Southern Song Dynasty.

Although Zuixian Tower has become famous in the Jingxi Road area, after leaving Jingxi Road, very few people know about Zuixian Tower and Shenxianzui. The most prosperous area in the Southern Song Dynasty was because of Gaozong Zhao

After Hangzhou was established as the capital, the economy began to be concentrated in the two Zhejiang areas. In addition, Mingzhou has been an important port for maritime trade since the Tang Dynasty. It became more prosperous after the Southern Song Dynasty. If you want to gain a foothold in the two Zhejiang areas, you must first establish a foothold in the two Zhejiang areas.

Find a place and set up a bridgehead first, so Huang Zhen finally set his sights on Shaoxing, where his family was in trouble.

Although Gao Huaiyuan understood that Huang Zhen still couldn't swallow his previous breath and wanted to gain reputation for the Huang family by standing up again in Shaoxing, Gao Huaiyuan did not object to Huang Zhen's idea, and regarding Zuixian Tower's eastward movement,

He also held a supportive attitude. Huang Zhen chose Shaoxing as the first place to open Zuixian Tower. There are undoubtedly many benefits here. First, Huang Zhen is originally from Shaoxing and is very familiar with the people and sophistication here. Secondly, it is also a high-end place.

If something happens to Dad Huaiyuan's territory, Gao Jian will have to take care of it. There is no need to spend a lot of money to open up the joints on the ground.

Therefore, Gao Huaiyuan agreed with Huang Zhen's idea and asked Huang Zhen to take advantage of the Chinese New Year to arrange the various businesses on Jingxi Road first. He would take advantage of these days before the New Year to buy a place for Huang Zhen first.

Later, when you come back, you can directly open a Zuixianlou branch for use.

So Gao Huaiyuan asked his young brothers to disperse into the city and ask around for good land that was planned to be transferred. He soon received the news. Someone told him that there was a family named Sun in the city. Because the business was not good, they planned to sell it in the near future.

He transferred a restaurant under his name at a low price and is looking for a buyer.

Gao Huaiyuan immediately went to the Sun family's restaurant to have a look, and was very satisfied with the result. This restaurant is located in a prosperous area. It is a three-story wooden restaurant facing the street. The layout is very good, and there is also a relatively large backyard.

There are dozens of rooms, which is very suitable for being a branch of Zuixian Tower.

Gao Huaiyuan was not stingy with small sums of money. He disguised himself so that no one could see his actual age. He found shopkeeper Sun and quickly negotiated the deal for his restaurant. He settled the money immediately and delivered the house directly.

The land deed and other items must be signed by both parties and filed with the government to complete the transaction.

The shopkeeper surnamed Sun De was struggling to find a buyer for a while, and the price was not too high. Both parties were happy to complete the transaction. Since then, Gao Huaiyuan finally owned a property belonging to him in Shaoxing, and took advantage of the Chinese New Year.

During this period, two subordinates were arranged to guard the place, and they quietly took over the property, only to hand it over to Huang Zhen to run the restaurant after the new year.

During the New Year, Gao Huaiyuan had to be dragged around Shaoxing Mansion by Gao Jian. He visited some local gentry and dignitaries such as Magistrate Mei and gave him a generous gift. Although Gao Huaiyuan was not happy, there was nothing he could do about it.

, after all, he knew that Gao Jian was paving the way for him, hoping that he would get to know more powerful people, which would also be helpful to his career in the future. Therefore, Gao Huaiyuan was patient and was led around by Gao Jian like a puppet.

After a lot of thinking, I finally got over this painful task.

Seeing that the New Year was over, Gao Huaiyuan immediately said goodbye to Gao Jian and wanted to go back to Daye County, but Gao Jian took him and had a long talk, repeatedly telling Gao Huaiyuan not to act recklessly like before.

, especially once you obtain the Daye County Captain for him, you must work hard and not let down his high expectations, etc.

Gao Huaiyuan naturally nodded repeatedly and agreed in a good-natured manner, dealing with it first. After all, Gao Jian was making plans for him, and he had to listen. Moreover, Gao Jian had been an official for many years and knew the way of being an official.

Many of the words told to him were wise and clear words in the officialdom, and Gao Huaiyuan learned a lot of subtleties.

During the chat, Gao Jian also told Gao Huaiyuan some official news about the relationship between the Song and Jin countries that he had obtained during this period, saying that although the Jin Kingdom had lost two battles in a row in Zaoyang, its determination to destroy the Song Dynasty was not dead.

On this day, the Jin general Pu San Anzhen was appointed as the deputy marshal of the left to assist the Jin crown prince Wanyan Shouxu to continue to attack the Song Dynasty. It seems that the battle between the Song Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty can still be fought!

Gao Huaiyuan was slightly startled. He had accidentally heard of this servant San Anzhen in his previous life. He could be regarded as a famous general in the late Jin Dynasty. If this man attacked the Song Dynasty as a commander, the Southern Song Dynasty might suffer a big loss.

Yes, and he also knew that this Wanyan Shouxu was Jin Aizong, the last emperor of the Jin Kingdom in the near future. It is a pity that the Jin Kingdom has not yet realized that the country is about to be destroyed, so it is their turn to be unlucky!

"I really can't understand what the gold master is thinking. They are now surrounded by enemies on all sides. The Mongolian army is attacking one after another in the north, the Xixia army is watching in the west, and our Song Dynasty's hundreds of thousands of troops are confronting the Jianghuai area in the south. There is also the Red Coat Army revolting in Shandong.

, successively attacked various places in Shandong, couldn't the gold master see that their great Jin Kingdom was in danger?" Gao Huaiyuan couldn't help but sigh in the end.

Gao Jian raised his eyebrows and glanced at Gao Huaiyuan, seeming a little surprised and saying: "Sanlang is still so concerned about the affairs of the Jin Kingdom. It seems that you have paid much attention to the war between Song and Jin Dynasties! Is it possible that you still want to serve in the army again?

Can’t do it?”

Gao Huaiyuan heard this and quickly explained: "Dad, don't worry, Sanlang will never do something like that again. The boy said this just because he heard some things about the north when he was serving in the army a few years ago.

, Just talking casually, I will never make the decision without permission again and take risks!"

Gao Jian then nodded to express his relief, and then said: "If that's the case, then I'm relieved. In fact, you see it well, even better than your father and I. According to what you said, the Kingdom of Jin is really

The energy was exhausted. It is said that the Jin Kingdom sent some envoys to Lin'an to negotiate peace a few years ago, but they were unable to cross the Huai River, so they had to give up and go back. Now the Song and Jin countries are at war. For us in the Song Dynasty, the situation is very serious.

That’s right. Now Li Quan, the leader of the loyal army in Shandong of the Jin Kingdom, has surrendered to our Song Dynasty and has successively captured cities in Shandong. After some time, I am afraid that the Jin Kingdom will not be able to destroy our Song Dynasty, but it will be destroyed by our Song Dynasty first.

!But these things are beyond your control. For now, you should go back to Daye County and wait for the news!

Although there is no war in Daye, it is close to Ezhou. If the river defense fails, the Jin Army may invade Daye County in a large scale. Even if you become a county captain, it will probably be a difficult job!

But in general, you don't have to worry too much. Judging from the current situation in front of the army, it is not easy for the Jin army to cross the river, so there is no need to worry too much about this matter.

This time when you return to Daye County, I have arranged for a guest to accompany you back. This person is a local scholar in Shaoxing.

After seizing the fame, he was living at home in great desolation. When my father came here for the first time, he found this man, so he showed his kindness and hired him as a guest in the palace. This man has been with my father for many years, and he is very grateful to us, the Gao family, for the care he gave to him.

He has no chance of promotion and is unwilling to engage in business, so he can only serve as a guest of the court and is very loyal to me!

Now you are likely to become the captain of Daye County, but you have not read much to begin with, and this person has been with me for many years, and now he is well versed in the way of being an official. If he goes to Daye County with you, he can become one of your

Great help, you have to be kind to him, he will definitely become your right-hand man and save you a lot of trouble!

Moreover, my father has also reached an agreement with him. I will be responsible for taking care of his family affairs from now on. He is also willing to go with you to Daye County to help you. I will introduce him to you tomorrow and you will return to Daye County together.

go!"

After Gao Huaiyuan listened to Gao Jian's words, he suddenly became a little nervous. Judging from Gao Jian's words, it seemed that his father was completely sure about his position as county captain this time, and even the staff had been properly arranged for him.

Okay, now things seem to be a bit troublesome. Once dad arranges for him such a guest, then there will be one more dad around him, and many things may not come to light soon.

Among them, doesn't it mean that there is an extra spy by his side?

Gao Huaiyuan also knew that in the Song Dynasty, the Mubin was actually the master who served as an official in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. However, due to the system of the Song Dynasty, most of the Mubins were minor officials employed by the government, and now they have a status similar to that of a supervisor.

There should be very few full-time court guests like this. My father actually found such a person to use as his staff. It seems that he is really being kind and righteous to him. In this way, he can't even say no.

, what should I do now!

Gao Jian saw Gao Huaiyuan lowering his head and said nothing, so he felt a little unhappy and said, "Sanlang doesn't seem to appreciate his father's kindness! Is it possible that you are still dissatisfied with me doing these things for you? Yes.

I know that people like Mu Bin are very hard to find these days, so you are very lucky to have this person to help you, wouldn't you?"

Gao Huaiyuan seemed to be very unhappy when he heard Gao Jian's words, so he quickly said: "I don't dare. Sanlang thanks dad for his kindness. How can he be unhappy? It's just that the kid felt a little sudden just now. Could it be that dad is like this now?"

Are you sure you can win the position of county captain for your child? My child is thinking, if I fail to get it, if I ask the retainer to follow me to Daye County now, won't I become a laughing stock? My child is thinking that if it is

In this case, it would be better to wait until the matter is confirmed and then let Dad go to Daye!"

After Gao Jian listened to Gao Huaiyuan's words, he gently stroked the beard under his chin with his hand and said with a smile: "It turns out that Sanlang is still considering things so thoughtfully! It seems that my father has underestimated you! If you can think like this, your father and I

I'm really happy. It means that you have thought more about it now, and it is safer to think about it this way! Not bad! Very good! Haha!

But you don’t have to worry about this matter. I didn’t have much confidence as a father at first, but the gifts you brought me when you came back this time helped me a lot. The sword you gave me,

After adding the set of glazed tea sets, my father has full confidence that the Daye County Lieutenant is not a very popular official position. With these things to pave the way, it should not be a problem to fight for such an official position for you.

Got it!

The guest of honour, whose surname is Ji Mingxian, is very shrewd. You must respect him and never treat him like other people. You can call him Mr. Ji and treat him as the teacher your father invited for you. You also have it on hand now.

After Ji Xiancheng follows you to Daye County, you can spend some money to buy a property for him in the county and settle him properly. He will definitely give you some advice!"

Ji Xiancheng? I have never heard of this name. After Gao Huaiyuan recited the name silently in his heart, he remembered it firmly. Since this was the case, he just took him back to Daye County with him. The worst is possible.

At that time, I bought him a house in the county town and arranged for him to live in it. I only used it to support an idle person. Anyway, I couldn't let him come into contact with my core industry before I fully trusted him.

As for returning to Shaoxing to visit Gao Jian this time, Gao Huaiyuan somewhat regretted it. If he had known that Gao Jian would use the precious things that he had given him as gifts, he would not have given them to him. Now it seems that the position of county captain is not guaranteed.

It fell on his head. Is he really going to be a county captain? How useful is this small official who is as sesame as a mung bean? Gao Huaiyuan really looks down on the errand of this Daye County captain.

I feel that it is not worth it for my father to spend so much effort and mobilize all the troops just to get such a small official for him!

After arranging with Gao Jian to return to Daye County, Gao Huaiyuan returned to his residence. These days, he was a little strange because his second brother Gao Huairen had not seen him again since he scolded him.

This guy has appeared before. Could it be that he has changed his gender? Gao Huaiyuan couldn't guess what this guy was doing.

But Gao Huaiyuan has been more careful these days, because he knows the character of Gao Huairen. Although this guy is not as arrogant as the boss Gao Huailiang, he is also a sinister person. He is afraid that this guy will take advantage of his time in Gao Mansion to give him

There was also no trouble for these people under his command, so he looked after Liu Er very closely, and also restrained Li Ruohu and others very strictly, trying not to let them leave the house as much as possible, so as not to cause trouble again.dd
