"Qingniang, Lou Yun is shrewd and cunning, very powerful, but narrow-minded, everywhere to his Quanzhou City's selfish interests, Quanzhou and Tangfang are far away, although you are friends with the Chen family, he may not be able to help Tangfang and help you build a ship, but Huang Qige and I have bought a shipyard in Mingzhou this year, and we can build a ship for Tangfang in Mingzhou-"

He earnestly persuaded her that she had been living in seclusion in the Ji family's courtyard for the past three years, and had not reacted to his marriage in the Great Song Dynasty, he could not help but be extremely vigilant, although he was lucky, and came to the door three times to ask for relatives in the hope of reconciling with her old relationship, but he had long known that the future would be not small.

After all, after the marriage was ruined, the friendship he had with the three sisters and brothers of the Ji family seven years ago who had established Tangfang was gone.

Huang Qilang, who has not come out of the yard, how he can look at people's faces, he has already called the boatmen and the little guys to shrink inside without saying a word, just waiting for this man and woman to solve their old grievances, don't let him be caught in the middle and be difficult to be a person, and even more difficult to do business.

"The mountain is high and the emperor is far away, from Tangfang to Mingzhou Port, it will take seven days to sea, and then from Mingzhou to Lin'an City, and it will take a few days to sit along the river, not to mention the wind and waves in the middle, if I am bent on counting on the envoy of the Great Song Dynasty to come forward for my Tangfang, I am afraid that the 30,000 people in my workshop will not be able to work together to build Tangfang in this ten years——"

Naturally, she will not tell Wang Shiqiang, she has been looking for a secret port along the coast of Fusang in the past two years, although she has not started to build ships, but she does not need to ask for help.

"The people in my fang are all of the blood of Middle-earth, and I have been looking at my homeland for a long time, although I am not the people of the Great Song Dynasty, but I don't know that the envoy has come to the sea of my Tang Fang, but I don't have the reason to welcome it - Wang Gangshou is too worried."

While speaking, the sound of footsteps sounded from the small street entrance of the old street, she and Wang Shiqiang stopped at the same time, their eyes were slightly sideways, and they looked at the entrance of the small street.

"Big lady."

His horse face is long and narrow, his face is scorched, and his eyes are slightly protruding for some reason, and he stands under the continuous green ink mulberry wall at the edge of the courtyard, like a terrifying demon with a horse face in the underworld.

He also seemed to be self-aware, bowed his head and held a splashed ink thorn, and said respectfully:

"Big lady, Mr. Li sent the villain to send a post."

Wang Shiqiang had already prepared, and he saw that it was Ji Hong, the big guy in Ji's warehouse, and the henchman of her second brother Ji Chenlong. His heart was cold, and he was not worried.

Of course, some of his people in Gaoli were watching Ji Laoer's movements, not worrying about his sudden return.

And this Ji Hong, more than a year ago, he accompanied Ji Lao Er to study in Goryeo Kaijing, and he had to go back to Tangfang every other month to inquire about the affairs of Ji's warehouse, and today he just stopped by to say hello to Sister A for Ji Lao Er.

What's more, Ji Erlang's henchmen may not be her henchmen.

"What's the post?"

She turned her face again and smiled and beckoned him closer, "When did you come back from Goryeo?" ”

"Back to the eldest lady, the villain returned to the workshop yesterday, Erlang ordered the villain to say hello to the eldest lady, and the villain also brought Erlang to the eldest lady's soil-"

Of course, he wouldn't mention the fact that he asked to see him yesterday, but was sent away by Xiao Ruiniang beside her outside the door with a few words.

As early as when the workshop was opened, he had offended the eldest lady because of violating the rules of the workshop, if it weren't for Erlang's intercession, he would almost become the first person to be kicked out after the opening of the Tang Fang, so he has not been treated by the eldest lady.

Today, he finally grabbed an opportunity to come to the door, of course, he had to meet the eldest lady and give gifts in person, so that he could go back and give an explanation to Erlang, lest Erlang think that he didn't know what to do and still hated the eldest lady.

"Wang Shiliang, the seventeenth son of the Wang family, posted a post outside the gate to ask to see the eldest lady."

As he spoke, he took a few steps closer down the street, the black iron hilt of the knife at his waist striking the copper trim of the red lion-patterned armband around his waist, making a sullen and intermittent sound.

"Seventeen sons?"

She tilted her head and smiled, and asked rhetorically.

Wang Shiqiang's eyes swept over the ink-splashed thorn in his hand, and he naturally knew that Wang Shiliang was his mother-in-law's biological son, one of his six half-brothers.

Seeing her raise her hand to take over the famous thorn, Huang Qilang, who walked out of the courtyard when he heard the sound, had already shown an anxious look, he had been friends with Ji Qingchen for many years, of course he knew that she was for Tangfang's business, even if he knew that Wang Shiqiang would marry another person, he would never openly turn his face with the Siming Wang family.

But her friendship with Wang Shiliang is to divide Wang Shiqiang's power in Tangfang and get back the Tangfang property that she has assigned to the name of Siming Wang because of her fit and gratitude.

This Wang Shiliang's ship was originally in the fleet a hundred miles away, and he actually chased Wang Shiqiang to Tangfang, which can be seen that it was premeditated.

Maybe she secretly summoned her.

"I remember that this Shiliang prince is the brother of the great proprietor of the king? This is his first trip to the sea? ”

She didn't look at Wang Shiqiang, she just talked to herself.

Wang Shiqiang's eyes were a little scattered, and he fell behind Ji Hong indifferently.

The new Song businessmen who arrived in Tangfang, as a rule, had to be guaranteed by the head of the gang, and asked the owner to ask for a meeting, and after checking the survey documents issued by the Great Song City Bo Division, and proving his qualified identity in business, they could get acquainted with each other.

Ji Hong heard her ask about Wang Shiliang, but when there was no Wang Shiqiang in front of him, he raised his head carefully, grinned, and replied calmly:

"Yes, eldest lady, Wang Shiliang is the youngest son of the third room of the Wang family, the villain has inquired clearly, he is nineteen years old this year, he went to the sea to do business after failing the imperial examination twice, his half-brother was born in Lin'an City, and married the fifth daughter of Liu Gang's first family in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, his mother's family is the second lady of Hu Gangshou's family, and his mother's wife Hu set for him is also Miss Chang of Taizhou Xie family, a few days ago, Wang Lao Gangshou, Xie Gongzi, Liu Gangshou, Hu Gangdu have handed over the news, please take care of one or two."

"Ordered Miss Xie's sister-in-law?"

The four Gangshou seals attached to the post were bright red, and she was really surprised to see the seal of the Xie family as a guarantor for Wang Shiliang.

"In addition to Wang Lao Gang, Xie Thirteen Gongzi also handed it over for us to take care of?"

Although the Liu family and the Hu family are also one of the leaders of the six maritime merchants in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, they have only made their fortunes in recent decades, not to mention the nouveau riche Huang Qilang, who is far inferior to the long-standing Siming Wang family, and has always looked at the Wang family, while the Taizhou Xie family must not be underestimated.

The Xie family is the only maritime merchant family in Jiangsu and Zhejiang that can be compared with the Wang family.

The mother of the seventeenth prince Wang Shiliang was originally from the Hu family, and then ordered this Xie family affair for him, even if he went to sea for the first time, he would be invincible in the East China Sea in the future.

No wonder this kid dares to let out a rumor and want to compete with Wang Shiqiang, the brother.

Although he is far from being Wang Shiqiang's opponent, and sooner or later he will have to suffer at his hands, but his coming to the East China Sea is exactly what she wants.

"Since you are a member of the Wang family, you also invite the senior officials to go to the Ji family's warehouse with me to meet you?"

She suddenly changed her temperament, and she was not in a hurry to go outside the water gate to greet the fleet of the Great Song envoys who stopped fifty miles away, and asked Wang Shiqiang with a smile.

And Wang Shiqiang's eyes turned to her eyebrows, lips, and apricot eyes, deep face, and her expression was peaceful.

He already knew that with her temperament, it might still be a small matter if she couldn't get married, but since he Wang Shiqiang was not her husband, of course she would have to take back the Tangfang property in his hands.

It was written by Huang Qilang seven years ago, and he agreed with her that he had obtained a total of fifty or sixty key wharves, warehouses and warehouses on twelve rivers in Tangfang on behalf of the Siming royal family, as a reward for helping her build a workshop.

These properties can be regarded as compensation when he asked for control of the twelve rivers but she refused.

"I know that Wang Shiliang is not your opponent, in order not to make the family ugly, I will inevitably give him a few docks, but you only need to start with the docks in his hands, and spend a year or two to get back all the properties that were originally allocated to my family - in this way, Tang Fang and I will have no relationship at all."

He laughed casually, but his voice was cold, and he said:

"I don't care about these properties, but I advise Qingniang not to go to see him-"

He turned his hand sideways, and his eyes fell on her smiling face, with a hint of coldness, "Today, in addition to letting Fujian maritime merchants enter the workshop and join forces with Wang Shiliang, does Qingniang also plan to put aside the original verbal agreement with me?" Take back these inheritances just so that after you break the contract, I will be helpless against you? ”

"I don't understand what Wang Gangshou said?"

She smiled in surprise, as if she really didn't know why, "Aside from the marriage contract three years ago, what other verbal agreement do we have?" ”
