After Mr. Josephine and his wife parted, they hugged and kissed their three children, Kate, John and Elizabeth, and the family excitedly talked about their lovesickness and joy at first sight. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Until a crew member came to Mr. Josephine and asked for advice on how the cargo on board was to be placed.

"Your Excellency and Madam, please wait a moment." Mr. Josephine hurriedly greeted Liu Shi Peng Jin, and gave a few more words to Mrs. Josephine and the children, and then walked quickly towards the fleet.

I saw that Mr. Josephine stretched out his hand to summon a person who looked like a steward, and whispered to him, and after the visitor nodded in agreement, he turned around and said with a smile: "My lord, madam, let's go back to the inn first, and leave it to them here." ”

The people who were able to go out of the sea with him again and again, and persevered, were the right-hand men whom Mr. Josephine trusted and relied on, and he was completely worried that someone would take advantage of his absence to enrich himself.

The rich remuneration that Mr. Josephine gave them was not comparable to a small profit.

The two families of ten people got into the carriage again, and the family sat in one and galloped all the way to the inn.

When they arrived at the inn, the shopkeeper greeted him from inside, and when he saw Mr. Josephine, he couldn't help but congratulate him, and invited the group to the store with a smile.

It happened that everyone hadn't eaten breakfast yet, so Liu Shi ordered two salty and sweet porridges, steamed buns, meat patties, and all kinds of seafood accompaniments.

While waiting for breakfast, the two sides greeted each other after a long absence, and learned that Mr. Josephine and the caravan had encountered danger three times and twice at sea, but at last they all came through without danger, and everyone was worried and happy.

When Mr. Josephine heard that Liu Shi and Peng Jin's family were about to leave Quanzhou in the next morning and take a boat to the capital, he hurriedly said: "I have just returned from overseas, and my lord and wife are leaving, which is really unfortunate. Otherwise, my lordship, stay for a day or two, and then I will send a ship to send you back to Beijing!" ”

Mr. Josephine is sincere in his words and sincere in his expression, everything he has now is obtained with the help of Liu Shi, not to mention sending a ship to send Liu Shi and others back to Beijing, or sending a ship of eight sails to Liu Shi He is also willing to do so.

Liu Shi and Peng Jin were unwilling to work so hard, let alone trouble Mr. Josephine, so they smiled and shook their heads and said politely: "There is no feast in the world, even if you stay for two more days or separate, it will not be troublesome." ”

"How can this be considered trouble!" When Mr. Josephine heard Liu Shi say this, he insisted more and more.

As if he suddenly thought of something, Mr. Josephine's eyebrows flashed, and he said excitedly: "Don't hide it, in fact, I have always wanted to go to the capital in person to see the prosperity of the imperial capital at the feet of the Son of Heaven, and to see if it is possible to expand the caravan one step further." ”

However, Mr. Josephine did not seem to be in a hurry about this matter, and he thought that the most important thing for the caravan at present was to accumulate sufficient resources, so he never mentioned this matter to others.

At this time, it happened that Liu Shi and others were going to return to Beijing, and the opportunity was right, but Mr. Josephine made up his mind.

If everything had been done until it was fully ready, there would be no ocean-going caravans today. Thinking that when the Japanese invaded the southeast sea of Daqi, he keenly sensed the opportunity and gave it a go, which led to today's achievements.

Maybe this time, he seized the opportunity again and temporarily decided to go to Daqi Kyoto, and there would be unexpected gains!

Even if you can't find a suitable development path and opportunity at that time, it is worth the trip to send Liu Shi and his party from Quanzhou to the capital to repay Liu Shi's past kindness and enjoy the glory of the imperial capital by the way.

When Mr. Josephine thought of this, his heart became more and more determined.

"Okay, then that's it." Without waiting for Liu Shi to answer, Mr. Josephine was tough in front of him for a rare time, and said with a smile: "I usually listen to adults, but this time adults have to promise me once." ”

Mr. Josephine usually listened to him because of the difference between the government and the people, and "compelted" to obey; This time he listened to Mr. Josephine because of the importance of his friends, and it was inconvenient to refuse.

Liu Zhi understood what Mr. Josephine meant, and couldn't help laughing when he heard the words, and no longer refused, and responded happily: "Okay!" Then I'll listen to you this time! ”

So the group renegotiated the plan and prepared to go to the capital together on a certain day.

Everyone was very happy to hear the news, they had been together for so long, and they were suddenly separated, and no one wanted to.

Especially the children, who were so happy to hear that they were going to the capital together, and that they could continue to play together!

Nuan Nuan has even begun to promise that when she arrives in the capital, she will definitely do her best to fulfill the friendship of the landlord and take Kate, John and Elizabeth to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the imperial capital and eat all the delicacies of the imperial capital.

After Mr. Josephine entrusted the affairs of the trading house and the caravan to a trustworthy person for the time being, he chose a building ship with eight sails on it, and led his wife and children, as well as the old shipwrights with rich sailing experience in the fleet, to escort Liu Shi and others north.

Before parting, Peng Jin quietly put the silver ticket that was enough to pay for their consumption at the inn for the past few days, along with a text message explaining the situation and thanking them, into the small box where the shopkeeper kept the money every day.

By the time the shopkeeper found it and chased it to the port, the ship had already left the shore and sailed smoothly and swiftly towards the rising sun.

The shopkeeper watched the boat drift away in a daze, gradually turning into a black dot floating in the sky, blinked his dry and slightly painful eyes because he had been open for a long time, lowered his head to look at the silver ticket in his hand, and sighed lowly: "Good official, ......"

I don't know if there will be such luck in Quanzhou in the future, ushering in a good official like Liu Shi who has a clean breeze on his sleeves and does his best for the country and the people.

The joy of gathering together made everyone's mood relax and happy, standing on the deck one by one, facing the cool and slightly astringent sea breeze, and enjoying the infinite scenery of the sea.

The blue and deep sea is vast, calm and serene, and the gentle waves chase the boats, kissing the boats one after another, seeing them off thousands of miles, and they are reluctant to give up; Under the clear sky, the white clouds flutter leisurely, and the seagulls under the clear sky spread their white wings, fluttering, and occasionally swooping down quickly, agilely picking up a silverfish that just jumped out of the water.

The morning sun rises higher and higher, gradually becoming hot, sprinkling countless bright and warm rays, gently and quietly embracing and soothing all things in the world.

Looking at the coastline of Quanzhou, which is getting farther and farther away, until it gradually disappears, reluctance and melancholy gradually hit his heart, lingering, Liu Zhi silently waved his hand in his heart, and said silently: "Farewell." ”

He worked hard for three years, and gradually became stable and rich Quanzhou, I hope that I can have the opportunity to see each other again in this life, and I hope that the people of Quanzhou will be rich, and the days will be more and more prosperous.
