774. Chapter 773: Grievances
Xie Jianning couldn't have imagined that Yin Chaoyang would play such a trick to harm him, when the ship was just smashed out of a hole by artillery, he was still thinking, it doesn't matter, as long as he holds on for a while, he will wait for reinforcements, this method of luring the snake out of the hole was discussed with Yin Chaoyang, for fear of leaking the news, so he did not let many people know, people who know some inside information, except for the people under him, is Yin Chaoyang, even Wang Li didn't say anything, just afraid that Wang Li and the previous Qin Bohou had something unclear and bad.
As for Zheng Rong's side, because he is in charge of the Shenji Battalion, and he has always been at odds with Yin Chaoyang, so he didn't inform Zheng Rong about it, and after the plan is completed, no matter how big the disagreement is, the two can also be reconciled, after all, they are all the guys brought by the Shenji Battalion, and when they report their merits, Zheng Rong's share is indispensable.
I just didn't expect something like this to happen halfway.
When the enemy's artillery smashed onto the ship one by one, he knew that something was wrong, he was doing official business in Quanzhou all the year round, and there were always a few months of typhoon weather in a year, which forced him, a landlubber, to learn to water, but unfortunately just climbed to the plank, the two legs were affected, and along the wave, he was paralyzed on the plank, unable to move, and the two legs were heavy as if they were wrapped in lead.
When I woke up again, it was like this, and I wanted to know who did it.
It's just that Xie Jianning can't figure it out, apart from him as the governor, can Fujian be under the jurisdiction of Yin Chaoyang? Is it because Yin Chaoyang is too anxious, or has he already thought of a perfect strategy?
Sitting on the dart car, Xie Jianning looked at the sky motionlessly, the sky in Fujian was always blue, and the clouds hung high, like cotton. Some things don't understand, he won't embarrass himself again, there will be a day when the water will come out, but now the important thing is Fujian's official business, at this moment it must have been a mess, if you go back alone, your body is half wasted, even if you can have spiritual food, I am afraid that the saint will take care of him, so you can only deal with the affairs at hand first, and then wait for the new governor to come, and then hand it over to others one by one.
Slowly, he closed his eyes, not thinking about the loss in his heart, or melancholy and other feelings, sometimes external forces are unavoidable, and now this situation is careless, no wonder others.
β¦β¦
After recuperating for half a month, Chanyi's body is very good.
In March, the spring breeze blows through the willow trees, the willow buds seem to be long, the window is full of green, the birds are gradually falling in love with the branches, Chanyi pushed open the window, and sighed secretly in her heart, it is really very different from the scenery of Yunfu City.
"Princess, Mrs. Zhou is here," Jinping raised the curtain and brought the bird's nest to her from the little maid's hand, "Waiting in the flower hall, the slave said that you are still taking a lunch break." β
Chanyi nodded, Mrs. Zhou came over to discuss the matter of opening a shop in the city, this is a big deal, and it can't be delayed. She ate a few bites of bird's nest and felt a little unappetizing, so she put it down, got up and changed her clothes, "You go and prepare the account book I sorted out yesterday first." β
Jinping said: "It's ready early, don't worry." β
When she arrived in the flower hall, Mrs. Zhou's eyebrows were a little gloomy, and when she saw Chanyi, she hurriedly stood up: "Princess, you are here, the shop in the west of the city has been cleaned up, just waiting for you to be free, let's go and see together." β
With an impatient look, Chanyi couldn't help frowning, before Mrs. Zhou pulled the line to let the Ma family inherit the benefits of Chu Shaoyuan, and vacated the business of selling horses and salt wells under her hands, and gave them to Chu Shaoyuan, although the Ma family has a big business, but in the end they lost these two biggest sources, and they were a little nervous for a while, so they thought about opening a few shops in the city to buy and sell furs and tea.
But starting a new business requires more than just connections, so Mrs. Zhou tried to pull her in, and also used her name to follow the situation, and took advantage of the businessmen in the city, so that they could give up a few profits.
Seeing Mrs. Zhou's anxious appearance, she sat down on the chair quietly and raised her head to look at Mrs. Zhou: "I remember that Mrs. Zhou once said that the biggest tea merchants in western Sichuan are the Xu family and the He family, and the two of them are almost monopolizing the tea in western Sichuan. β
In fact, when it comes to tea shops or something, Chanyi doesn't have much interest, although tea is a money-making business, but compared with horse trading and salt, it is far from it, even if the poor people are poor, they have to eat salt, and those who can afford to buy horses are rich and noble, so after these two things are occupied, other fur businesses are good, tea is good, more or less not as popular as these two.
The most important thing is that the emperor wants to rectify Jiangnan, on the letterhead received from Yunfu City before, Xia Mingche clearly wrote that the emperor has sent his third uncle Xie Yanning to Jiangnan, which is considered to be facing the four princes, so how can the Xu family easily let out the profits?
Chan Yi didn't forget what was going on with the Gu poison in herself before, so she said that Jiang Yaya was involved, but if the Xu family didn't have any ideas, they wouldn't dare to do it so blatantly if they were afraid of giving them a hundred dares.
Chu Shaoyuan once investigated, the Xu family is more or less involved with the four princes, although it cannot be categorically said that the Xu family has taken refuge in the four princes, but it is still certain to wait and see, and the important thing is that after the Xu family did this matter, it completely offended Chu Shaoyuan, although Chu Shaoyuan did not immediately clean up the Xu family, but looking at the Xu family's appearance in Yizhou City these days, he knew the heart of the head of the Xu family, and refused to send someone to say a few soft words, which shows that the head of the Xu family is still more inclined to the four princes when choosingγ
It's okay to do this, so that she can still be a little unbearable.
So she didn't refuse Mrs. Zhou's proposal to open a shop, most of it was also related to the rectification of Jiangnan officialdom, since the Xu family refused to bow their heads, they couldn't blame others for pressing them down and bowing their heads.
Mrs. Zhou was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered that Princess An had asked her lightly before, about the tea merchants, the biggest tea merchants in western Sichuan are the Xu family and the He family, and the Xu family is very quiet these days, not at all high-profile at all, but the He family, which is silent on weekdays, appears more and more frequently in people's sights, Prince An seems to be very interested in the Xu family and the He family, although she is one of the best noblewomen in western Sichuan, but for these generations of businessmen and heirlooms, it is still somewhat difficult to enterγ
Mrs. Zhou thought of this, smiled and nodded: "The princess doesn't know, although the Xu family and the He family are both tea merchants, they are very different, Xu is the head of the two families had a conflict because of some old things, so they don't get along, I don't know these things very clearly, but there is one thing I have heard people talk about......
After all, this little lady doesn't look like a person who likes to ask about other people's secrets, but in the usual relationship, she can also feel Prince An's faint alienation, although she is polite and humble, but in the end, she is slightly contemptuous, probably because she is born in her own family, and she is different from the ladies of the family that Prince An has always interacted with, so she will be treated like this.
She smiled to cover up the thoughts in her heart, and finished her words in a warm voice: "It turns out that when the He family and the Xu family ran the horse gang together, they were born and died, but later because of a death lawsuit on the road, the He family carried this charge for the Xu family, and then the Xu family was able to escape, and the He family broke the way of the horse gang with this charge on their backs.
"At first, there was naturally no business, but later because of the noble people they had met when they ran the horse gang, their tea business gradually expanded, and later the Xu family also wanted a piece of the pie, and at this time the He family did not fall out with the Xu family, or treated the Xu family as before, but unfortunately later the Xu family attached Gao Zhi'er, and kicked the He family away.
The He family was very puzzled, and didn't understand why the head of the Xu family would turn his face ruthlessly, and then gradually stopped contacting, and after a private investigation, the He family knew that the problem was in the murder case. β
Chanyi blinked when she listened, a homicide case, what kind of homicide case will completely break up the two families?
Mrs. Zhou looked at Shang Chanyi's puzzled eyes, and the smile on her face couldn't help but be three points deeper, and she lowered her voice and said: "The master checked it in private, it seems that it was because of the murder case that the person could live, but the Xu family was greedy for money and profit, and dragged the person to death, and then the person's clan came up, and after being blinded, they bit the He family and didn't let go, the He family was benevolent and righteous, and they didn't ask and carried the case on their backs......
Mrs. Zhou didn't say anything about it, and Chanyi expected it, but she still listened carefully.
Mrs. Zhou added later: "And I heard that the family is also a big family, although it is far away in the south of the Yangtze River, but it has a very wide network, otherwise the head of the He family would not be sent to the prison so easily." β
Chanyi's heart jumped and asked, "Is that family's surname Jiang?"
Mrs. Zhou frowned and thought: "It seems that Jiang is doing something, the old man is said to be not in pain when he dies, and he also promised his grandson a baby kiss, which can be regarded as a kind of consummation." β
Sure enough, Chan Yi said in her heart, it is really a link after a ring, which is unexpected.
It's strange that the He family will poison the Xu family, and they are so secretly framed, I'm afraid that if it is given to their heads, it will be unbearable.
She smiled: "In that case, let's go and see the shop today, and open it sooner and save trouble sooner." β
As for the Xu family and the He family, since they have already entered the game, don't think that they can get out of the way, especially the Xu family, after doing all the bad things, do they still think that once they will fly on the branches and be the strange Lu Buwei? It's really ridiculous!
