CHAPTER XV
After dinner, Yu Shao asked himself to keep vigil again, let Agui and them go back to rest, and come early tomorrow morning to replace. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Ah Gui shirked a few times and did not force the young and vigorous Yu Shao, Ah Gui thought that Yu Shao also had the meaning of avoiding suspicion, Shen Bing followed him inseparably, but Yu Shao seemed to be a son who abided by etiquette, and Shen Bing was also like a young lady from a big family, they had a strict family education, so they didn't want others to think that he had something to do with Shen Bing. Agui knows very well that decent people pay attention to this, that is, after his brother-in-law became developed, he also began to be vassal. Ah Gui can't figure out that there are such two young ladies who are destined for life, but they like to live in the rivers and lakes, and they have to come to the sea to adventure. Gui shook his head and got together with the boatmen to tell some faint jokes.
Yu Shaoke didn't know that Ah Gui was thinking like this, he actually agreed with Shen Bing.
"Bingbing, I originally said that I would practice in the morning, but I didn't sleep all night, and you also worked hard with me all night, I want to read these cheats first." Yu Shao said to Shen Bing.
"That's good, it's still a long time anyway, it's okay to remember the content of the cheats first, just in case, if you lose these cheats, it's hard to get them back." Shen Bing replied.
"But I'd like to hear your story tonight." Yu Shao said with a smile.
"It's not a story, it's something I've experienced in my own life." Shen Bing said seriously.
"It's not so sad to treat it as a story, I don't want to see you talk about your blood and tears in tears, it's too heavy."
"Well, I'll just give you a rough idea."
"Well, let's go up then."
Yu Shao and Shen Bing took the futon and went to drive the boat again.
Yu Shao carefully checked the various instruments on the ship to see if there were any mistakes that were prone to failure. Shen Bing spread out the futon and lay down in the quilt by himself. Shen Bing was afraid of the cold and liked to talk to Yu Shao in the bed, so Yu Shao turned his head to look at her. Yu Shao was very obedient and at the mercy of Shen Bing, Xiao Cen Cen looked at her, Yu Shao didn't want Shen Bing to be in a fuss as soon as he came up.
"Brother Yuzi. My surname is Shen, in fact, you should know the legend of my grandfather. Shen Bing said.
Yu Shao smiled and said, "You are Shen Wansan's granddaughter, I seem to already know your origin, right, I don't dare to ask about your background because I am afraid that you will be sad." ”
"Hey, I don't know that Brother Yuzi understands me everywhere, how can you not know my background with your intelligence." Shen Bing said with a sigh.
"When I was in the Wang family's compound, I heard you say that you are from Zhouzhuang, and I already understood. What other characters with the surname Shen are worthy of being hunted down by the current emperor? That is, your grandfather Shen Wansan, the rich Jiangnan giant rich in the world will make Zhu Yuanzhang a killer. Yu Shao said with a straight face.
"You know a lot about my grandfather." Shen Bing squinted his eyes and said.
"It is rumored that your grandfather had a cornucopia, and if he put a golden hairpin, he could take out a large handful of golden hairpins; Put in a silver ingot, you can take out a pot of silver ingots, inexhaustible, so you can be rich in the world. Yu Shao said with a grin.
Shen Bing also smiled and said, "Brother Yuzi, you won't believe this too." ”
"I believe in such a fetish. But it can also reflect the fact that your family has a huge amount of money and land all over the world. ”
"I don't actually know how much property my family has, everyone says that my family is rich in the world and the richest man in Jiangnan. I was in the middle of it and didn't think so. However, it is true that everything I usually use is not something that can be bought at random in the market, and the same things are very different from each other, including the fact that I eat every day with a table full of delicacies from the mountains and seas. ”
"Not only is it the richest man in Jiangnan, your family is the richest man in the world."
"How so? Brother Yuzi. Shen Bing was at a loss for his family wealth. She was so young, she had always been a carefree little girl, and she would care about the affairs of the family. Many business minds are due to Shen Bing's nature.
"When Zhu Yuanzhang attacked Pingjiang, Pingjiang Zhang Shicheng's Great Zhou regime relied on your grandfather's financial support to hold Pingjiang for eight months. But after the city is broken, Zhu Yuanzhang must hate your grandfather to the core. ”
"I've only heard my mother talk about it."
"You shouldn't have been there back then, so you wouldn't know. Your grandfather is a shrewd businessman, and when he saw the grim situation in reality, he had no choice but to start a loss-making deal with Zhu Yuanzhang. ”
"What kind of deal?" Shen Bing's eyes widened as he looked at Yu Shao.
"Zhu Yuanzhang set the capital of Nanjing, and he wanted to build a huge Nanjing city, so that your grandfather funded the construction of one-third of the capital, and the section of the city wall funded by your grandfather was built with glutinous rice. At that time, Zhu Yuanzhang was poor and white and didn't have much family background, but your grandfather was rich and comparable to the country, and Zhu Yuanzhang still begged your grandfather at that time, but he was always unhappy. But Zhu Yuanzhang still made an official for your father and your uncle, and also built 1,654 corridors, four restaurants, and countless houses in Nanjing City. What a beautiful home you were when you weren't born. ”
"Brother Yuzi, how come you know the situation of my family better than me, I haven't heard my father talk about being an official."
"Although your father is rich, but the frustration of officialdom is inevitably depressed, he will never talk about unpleasant things with you at a young age, I am so old, my father has never mentioned his past prosperous years, in the eyes of the elders, we will always be children."
"But how do you know?"
"According to hearsay, the world is also full of rumors, and it may not be true, even you don't know, how can I tell if this is the case."
"Well, only my grandfather knows the truth about these things." Shen Bing's mood was a little low.
"Your grandfather was smart and confused for a while, and he actually asked for funds to reward the three armies, and then Zhu Yuanzhang was furious and scolded: 'The army of the world is punished, and the people are also chaotic.'" I'm going to behead your grandfather. ”
"This is a good thing, Zhu Yuanzhang is really a bastard emperor, my grandfather is so generous, he wants to kill him like this."
"Don't forget that 'the whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister.'" The whole world is Zhu Yuanzhang's, including Shen Wansan, who is also his people. There is a reason for the grass people to treat the emperor's army, and the emperor will tolerate those who are richer than him, won't the world laugh at the emperor and not as rich as you Shen Wansan, your grandfather's move is simply looking for death. ”
"Hmm. That's the reason, but Brother Yuzi, you can't arrange my grandfather. Shen Bing pursed his lips and spoke to Yu Shao's horizontal eyes.
"I said it a little heavier, but I respect Mr. Shen for heaven and earth, what a smart person he is." Yu Shao said apologetically: "Fortunately, Queen Ma soberly admonished: 'Concubines who hear the law are also punished for illegality, not for ominousness. The people are rich and the enemy is the country, and the people are ominous. Ominous people, the sky will be a disaster, Your Majesty will not be punished. Zhu Yuanzhang felt justified after hearing this, and was a little relieved. spared Shen Wansan and didn't kill him, and exiled your grandfather to Yunnan. ”
"Queen Ma also viciously scolded my grandfather for being an ominous person." Shen Bing was a little angry.
"Thanks to Queen Ma's vicious words, your grandfather's life was saved."
"Well, I don't know how grandpa went to Yunnan, it's a lot older."
"Actually, when I heard that you asked me to escort you to Yunnan, I am even more sure that you are Shen Wansan's descendant."
"Hey, there is a providence in the dark, and my Shen family is destined to have this catastrophe."
Yu Shao leaned over, stroked Shen Bing's head to comfort her not to be sad, and said softly, "It's all over." Tomorrow will be a sunny day. ”
"With Brother Yuzi by my side, I won't despair, you are my sun." Shen Bing said affectionately.
"I wanted to hear from you, but it turned out that my mother-in-law said a lot." Yu Shao wanted not to let Shen Bing think of sad things. just joked.
"Hmph, Brother Yuzi, it's good that you don't treat me as a child in the future, since you know my background very well. Just tell me the truth, I just want to hear Brother Yuzi talk to me. ”
"That's for sure, I used to be busy running for my life. I really haven't had a good chat with you. ”
"Well, we'll open our hearts and say nothing in the future."
"Okay, I've said so much, it's your turn." Yu Shao said with a grin.
"What shall I say?"
"It's still the story of your grandfather Shen Wansan, how did he make a fortune, I will learn from you in the future, so that I won't starve to death on the streets." Yu Shao said with a smile.
"Hmph, how can you starve to death on the streets, how many beautiful women want to give you silver and two flowers." Shen Bing no longer looked sad.
"Mock me again, I have confessed to you, in the dark night I don't know what the black gauze woman stuffed me, and at dawn I found out that it was the silver ticket she extorted, and I don't know why she gave it all to me, and I only kept the travel expenses." Yu Shao explained.
"I'm just saying, you don't often tease me for coming, you are in a hurry." Shen Bing said with a smile.
"Heh, you really hold a grudge, and a little is endlessly publicized by you everywhere." Yu Shao pretended to be angry and said.
"I'm talking about this, let's talk about my grandfather, I also listened to my mother, I don't know if it's true."
"I just like you to tell stories, real things are stories after a long time."
"My grandfather's real name is Shen Fu, the word Zhongrong, the third in line, after becoming a huge rich, they all called him Shen Wansan, originally Wu Xingren's family, born in the Yin Shi family, but after a flood, he drifted to Zhouzhuang, a hundred miles away from Nanxun, where he started farming. Grandpa often went to Pingjiang, that is, Suzhou, where there were businessmen everywhere, and grandpa saw that it was fun and profitable, and he was naturally interested in doing business. Grandpa, along with his father and his younger brother, cultivated the fields in Zhouzhuang, worked diligently, turned the reeds and thatched fields into granaries, planted rice and rape, and also planted mulberry and silkworms. The land of Zhouzhuang is fertile, the climate is mild, and the irrigation is convenient, which is very suitable for planting. Gradually, with surplus money, my grandfather began to expand the farmland, rich in gold and jade, and slowly built a lot of large granaries. Later, he accumulated a huge amount of money, and the land was all over the world.
Later, my grandfather met Lu Deyuan, a wealthy man in Suzhou Fujia Jiangzuo, and admired his grandfather's intelligence and business credit, and felt that he was already old and had seen through the red dust. If the huge wealth in his hands is not passed on to others, once the situation is turbulent, it will cause disaster. So he gave them all to his grandfather, and went to the Kaiyun Hall by Chenghu Lake to become a Taoist priest until his death.
Grandpa's family was already well-off and became the head of the local wealthy family, and after getting this huge amount of money from Lu Deyuan, he was even more powerful. Grandpa continued to open up the farm house, and at the same time began to do business.
Zhouzhuang waterway is convenient, 'east to Shanghai, south to Zhejiang', is the base of trade and circulation of goods. Grandpa bought a lot of ships to transport silk, porcelain, grain and handicrafts from the mainland to overseas, and also transported overseas jewelry, ivory, rhino horn, spices and medicinal materials to Middle-earth, and started the foreign trade activities of "competing for wealth", and soon made himself the richest man in the south of the Yangtze River, creating a miracle that is unimaginable to the world. ”
Shen Bing talked about his grandfather's incomparable scenery, and he was extremely proud in his heart.
"I'm very interested in sailing, probably because I inherited my grandfather's mind."
"No wonder you mingle with the boatmen as soon as you get on the boat, and you have to teach me how to sail, this is also your nature, maybe in a few years, you will go to sea and cross the ocean like your grandfather, and you will also become a rich woman." Yu Shao said with a smile.
"Then your brother Yuzi must come to help me and accompany me across the ocean, you are the rich man." Shen Bing also said with a smile.
"Hahaha, it's easy to say."
"Brother Yuzi, you are duplicitous, when the time comes, when you leave, I don't know where to look for you, and I don't think I can see you when I get to the Wang family's compound, you are chasing the wind and the moon everywhere, and even your family can't control you."
"Yes, then you will take care of me then." Yu Shao teased.
"Of course, I just have a way to control you, but not now, I will have a way to control you in the future."
"Oh, then I'm relieved, I'll be at ease with you in charge, and everything will follow you." Yu Shao laughed widely.
"Do you know how grandpa lived after he became a huge rich?"
"What a show, let's hear it."
"After grandpa made his career, he also knew how to be elegant. He often entertained dignitaries in his lavish home
People, in addition to the delicacies of the mountains and seas and the beauty of alcohol, also have three classes of female music. In addition to the staggered cups, the female musicians performed music and dance to entertain the guests. They were both courtesans and musicians, and they played most of the Kunqu operas that grandfather and his friends loved to hear. The crowd watched. There were as many as 60 people who served as guards and guards in the Huawu alone, and they also served snacks and food every night, and they had to eat 10 urns of wine and 30 plates of braised hooves in one night. ”
"Tut-tut, it's enviable." Yu Shao shook his head exaggeratedly and said.
"I'm also hearsay, you don't have to believe it."
"But I yearn for that kind of fun." Yu Shao deliberately said mischievously to Shen Bing.
"When I have a lot of silver, I will let you live like this." Shen Bing said with great ambition.
"Hey, forget it, I'm used to wandering around, and I can enjoy such a luxurious life." Yu Shao changed his expression. Seeing Shen Bing's real appearance, don't let her misunderstand that she really wants to live a luxurious life.
"I just want Brother Yuzi to experience such a day, and if I can't get used to it, I will accompany you to the rivers and lakes again." Shen Bing is really domineering.
"Okay, you have to experience everything in life, you can live the life of poverty if you want to, and the extravagant life will not be achieved overnight, but fortunately I have Bingbing, which can make me experience the life of an emperor. Hahahaha. Yu Shao laughed unconsciously. (To be continued.) )
