At the end of May, it was the height of summer in Nanjing. The blazing sun is scorching the earth, the water surface of the Qinhuai River is steaming like smoke and mist, and the long leaves of the ancient willows on both sides of the river are also wilting.

Similar to the weather, it is the hearts of the people floating in Nanjing.

Since the first batch of banned ships came back, a large number of foreign goods rushed into the entire Nanjing market, and the people of Nanjing were dazzled, and their minds were more lively. As soon as a few batches of goods went out, a lot of silver was earned, and as soon as the foreign goods entered the market, a lot of silver went into their pockets.

Nowadays, everyone who does business wants to climb into the business of going overseas.

Of course, those who have this kind of mind are those businessmen, and for the idlers in Nanjing, the Japanese envoys are the gossip after dinner.

Of course, this kind of gossip is not like a cold bystander like the past has nothing to do with it, and it has to be more righteous indignation, everyone talks about the Japanese envoys, and they have to talk about the upcoming Doumo, and therefore, they have more expectations for the Li family.

"Ah Tang, I heard that your host's virgin girl is coming." At noon, it was the height of summer, and the cries of those who knew were hoarse, and there was no sound, as if they were about to die.

This person is also lazy, Yao Niangzi from the cloth village next door to Li's Mozhuang carried a small stool and sat in the shade in front of the shop, but the other end reached into Li's Mofang and asked Ah Tang, the guy in Mofang.

"Well, it should be almost there, Shopkeeper Zheng took Wenjie to the dock to pick up people." In the ink shop, Ah Tang was making an abacus, muttering and reciting the abacus formula.

"I guess it's time to come. If you don't come, it's too late. I heard Ah Tang say that he had already gone to pick up people. Yao Niangzi said excitedly. He turned his head and followed the people on the street to spread the news.

After Mrs. Yao finished speaking, she looked at the door of the Yi Housheng not far from the diagonal opposite, Luo Wenqian was holding a teapot and walking slowly, so she also raised her voice and asked: "Luo Dong's family, you just came back from Huizhou, you tell us, this time you are fighting ink with the Japanese people." How sure is the Li family? ”

"yes, yes." On the other hand, there was a worried expression on his face.

To tell the truth, at the beginning, no one took those Japanese people seriously, the Ming people have their own Ming people's bearing and grace, and they really didn't take a few Japanese people in their eyes, but this time the ink that even Ji Yingsong took out was really extraordinary, which made the Nanshuo ink division annihilated, and it was inevitable that he was a little worried.

"Yao Niangzi. When has Miss Li ever disappointed? Luo Wenqian did not reply directly to Yao Niangzi's words, but asked rhetorically.

He came from Huizhou. Although he set off a little later than Zhen Niang, he took the land route, but he arrived in Nanjing faster than Zhen Niang and them. The first few days arrived.

"That's, don't say it, Miss Li is really not worried, I have confidence in Miss Li." Yao Niangzi patted her chest and said.

On the other hand, a few people should also co-author, although Zhen Niang is a woman, when she first came to Nanjing, she was also highly suspicious, but after two years of hard work, now in this area of Guanjie, she has to give a thumbs up, which is quite the style of a Hui businessman.

And said Cao Cao, Cao Cao said.

It was noon when the Li family and his entourage arrived in Nanjing, and when they got off the boat, Mofang's car stopped at the dock, and Zheng Fuli took Sun Wenjie to pick up people.

So I went straight to Guan Street.

"Shopkeeper Zheng, how is the business in Nanjing?" Zhen Niang sat in the carriage and poked her head out to ask Zheng Fuli about the things in Mozhuang during this time in Nanjing......

"Since last year, it has been good, especially after getting the right to pay tribute, in recent times, there have been a lot of orders, at the beginning of spring, the ink workshop has been working overtime, and now it has entered the summer, and it is more leisurely." Zheng Fuli said, and introduced the approximate business in the first half of this year.

Zhenniang nodded, this was expected.

As he spoke, he arrived at the door of the ink shop.

The people who sat outside the shop and chatted saw that the Li family and his party had arrived, and they greeted them warmly, but they saw that the Li family was filial piety, and they couldn't help sighing, some time ago, from Huizhou to Nanjing, people came and went, and caravans arrived every day.

Originally, when such a thing happened, he should have been filial piety at home for the first three months, but the Li family received the holy decree, and they were originally merchants, so they would not pay so much attention to it.

Zhenniang also got out of the carriage with her father.

I didn't stay in Nanjing for more than half a year, Zhen Niang came back this time, and I still felt that Nanjing had changed a lot, not to mention anything else, just she came all the way, and there were several shops with foreign goods, which was the change brought about by the ban.

And with the lifting of the ban, the pace of people's lives seems to have become faster.

This point was felt as soon as she entered the official street, originally at noon this summer, the ground of the official street was hot, and there should be no pedestrians, but now, it is full of people.

Zhen Niang and the others also responded to everyone's voices, and were about to enter the house, but suddenly heard a commotion from the Yihousheng Money Village.

"Everyone, there is no reason for this in the world, I am obviously a bill of exchange from the Righteous Welfare Bank, how can there be any reason not to redeem it." A black-faced man in his forties stood at the door of Yi Housheng Qian Zhuang and scolded angrily.

"This is not a bill of exchange from our bank at all, so naturally it cannot be cashed." Luo Wenqian stood at the door of Yi Housheng, and said a little lightly.

"Phew, why isn't it your bank's money order? Look at this secret deposit, this pattern, what's wrong? The black-faced man said incessantly.

"The secret is right, the pattern is right, but even so, this bill of exchange is still fake." Rowan squinted and continued. Then he waved his hand and said to several guards in the bank: "Come on, take him down, twist him to the yamen, and say that this person made fake bills of exchange to cheat money." ”

Luo Wenqian's latter words are not groundless speculation, although this bill of exchange is bearer, but the secret deposit of each bill of exchange is different, and now the black-faced man took out the bill of exchange, the secret deposit and the pattern are no problem, which means that he must have a close relationship with the holder of the real bill of exchange, so that it is possible to know the secret deposit of the bill of exchange, so as to forge such a similar fake bill of exchange.

And even if it weren't. The provenance of this bill of exchange should also be checked.

Therefore. I'm going to take him to the officials.

"The surname is Luo. Don't you dare! Dare to love you not only don't want to admit it, but also want to beat a rake, right? Well, you told me, why do you say this money order is fake? The black-faced man yelled in a hurry. Then he said to the onlookers: "Everyone is watching, and you will be judged." ”

As soon as his words fell, the onlookers looked at Luo Wenqian, and Zhenniang was also anxious for Luo Wenqian in her heart, this kind of thing is very tricky. This era is not as good as all kinds of anti-counterfeiting methods in later generations, a money bank, if the secret and pattern are broken, it will be almost a disaster for the money bank.

And at this moment, Li Jingfu stepped forward with an arrow: "Feng Daniu, are you crazy or something?" Accusations have been made against my family, and this is my future son-in-law. This is Li Jingfu's arrow step forward, grabbing the black-faced man's angry way.

This black-faced man's name is Feng Daniu, he is bearded outside the gate, and he has also been to gold mines before. Li Jingfu had a relationship with him.

The black-faced man named Feng Daniu didn't expect to kill a Cheng biting Jin halfway, and he really planned to hum angrily. It's just that after seeing Li Jingfu clearly, it was Haha who teased: "Haha, it turned out to be Fu Ye, we can meet in Nanjing, then it can be regarded as fate." The black-faced man said, but said to Fu Ye: "What, Fu Ye, this is your son-in-law?" You've finally got your daughter off? ”

That Feng Daniu said, with a joking face, Li Zhenniang on the angry side rolled her eyes, and on the other hand, Li Jingfu was exposed by him, and he was also unhappy.

"It doesn't matter if my daughter is married or not, tell me, what's going on? If you don't make it clear, I'm not done with you. Li Jingfu glared at Feng Daniu angrily, this guy has never been a good bird.

"Fu Ye, you are not authentic, I worked hard to get a bill of exchange, I got this bill, I didn't want to take it, Yi Housheng actually didn't redeem it, you and I didn't finish, I still haven't finished with you. Dare to love you as a raccoon dog. Then Feng Da Niu also glared back at Li Jingfu.

Li Jingfu gasped angrily.

"Okay, it seems that you don't cry when you don't see the coffin, then I'll make it clear to you." At this time, Luo Wenqian said, and then to the onlookers: "Everyone, my righteous Housheng money bank's money order, in addition to the secret and pattern, there is also an anti-counterfeiting measure, that is the ink color of the pattern, if you have the village bill of exchange, do not guard against it, the pattern of the bill of exchange is usually black, see if the bill of exchange is level with the eyes, and then look at the light, the color of the pattern will become purple light, and the brother's bill of exchange pattern is not colorless, therefore, I said that his bill of exchange is fake. ”

Hearing Luo Wenqian say this, the people around him looked amazing, Yi Housheng Qian Zhuang had not announced this before, but everyone had also heard of it, Yi Hou Sheng Qian Zhuang's anti-counterfeiting measures were very strict.

So a few merchants who happened to be in the money bank to make a money order immediately held the money order to the line of sight, and then faced the light, and sure enough, the pattern on the money order turned purple.

It glows dark red like purple jade light and ink.

Everyone couldn't help but coax it, they didn't expect that Yi Housheng Qianzhuang still hid such a hand, but thinking about Luo Jiu's background, it was not unusual to be able to make this kind of ink.

At this time, Feng Daniu was also angry and stomped his feet and said: "Could it be that my bill of exchange is really fake, a straight lady thief, I have been fooled." ”

"It doesn't matter if you're fooled or not, let's go to the yamen first." While saying that Xilai hated the black-faced man who had made too much trouble before, at this moment, he couldn't help but say that he wanted to let a few guards pull him away.

Feng Daniu was naturally reluctant at this time, most of what he did was a business with no capital, where could he go to the yamen.

"Luo Jiu, this Feng Ye is also a well-known man in the Northland, I don't think he deliberately slandered you, he was also fooled, why don't you give me a few thin noodles, I'll be a peacemaker, let's talk about things, how about it?"

At this time, a few fast horses came over, and a young man in his twenties jumped off the horse and bowed to Luo Wenqian.

"It turned out to be Qin Sishao, long gone." Luo Jiu squinted, and he also arched his hands.

"The fourth son has always been good?" At this time, Li Jingfu on the side also laughed.

Zhen Niang raised her eyebrows, and understood, the people of the Qin family have arrived!!
