Night.

Shenjing City, southwest Guanyin Temple Street.

The eight major cloth lines in the capital, the old number of Dongsheng.

The Dongsheng Zhao family and the Hengsheng Wang family have been old rivals for decades, the Hengsheng Wang family has a ritual department Shangshu as a backer, but the Dongsheng Zhao family also has a Metropolitan Inspectorate Zuodu Yushi as the backstage.

Everyone is half a catty to eight taels, and they are equal.

The blue of the Wang family's Hengsheng cloth is the most colorful.

However, Zhao Jiadong's popular red is unparalleled in the world and the world's favorite.

Originally, this situation was difficult to break, because even if any officialdom was a little bad, but for decades, the two major brands have built a strong enough foundation with Jinshan Yinhai and officialdom connections, and in a short period of time, as long as they don't die, they will basically be fine.

However, no one expected that the accident still happened......

In the back house of Dongsheng, the second master of the Zhao family and several shopkeepers sat in the main hall, and the atmosphere was solemn.

On the table next to Zhao Donglin, the second master of the Zhao family, there was a foot of cloth, which was blue and dazzling.

On the other side, there is a narrow lock of red cloth, which is even more bright and eye-catching.

There are two rows of chairs under the hall, Zhao Donglin looked at the first person on his right hand and asked: "Shopkeeper Sun, you are the head shopkeeper of the Dongsheng tube dyeing cloth trough, and you are also a master craftsman, you look at these two pieces of cloth, what kind of hall is it?" ”

After pausing for a moment on the two pieces of cloth on the table, Shopkeeper Sun's brows furrowed tightly, and said: "Second master, generally speaking, dyeing blue cloth is to use soil alkali, soju, lime, and kraft glue as accessories, and then use blue indigo to be cold dyed many times, and finally it is colored. The Hengsheng Wang family naturally has some secret recipes, but the dyeing cloth is not much worse at all. But this blue cloth is not the case. After I got the cloth, I took someone to wash the cloth with rice milk, and it turned out that the cloth was not dyed with indigo at all, but mixed with mixed colors. The same is true of the blue cloth, and the same is true of the red cloth. ”

When Zhao Donglin heard this, he was silent for a while, and asked: "In other words, unless we get the formula, we can't mix such a color ourselves?" ”

Shopkeeper Sun's face was gloomy, and he shook his head and sighed: "There is no possibility. ”

Zhao Donglin said again: "Then, if the Hang Seng gets this red cloth recipe, let's ......."

As soon as these words came out, Rao is many shopkeepers were already worried in their hearts, but they were appealed to, and everyone's faces still changed greatly.

Shopkeeper Sun sighed and said, "Then, our Dongsheng is in big trouble!" ”

Huo Ran, the old shopkeeper on the left, got up and said loudly: "We must not let Hengsheng get this way!" This is to dig our Dongsheng's roots! ”

Several other shopkeepers chimed in: "Yes, this is very true! If Hengsheng is allowed to go, it will be terrible. ”

A young and strong shopkeeper in the back stood up and said angrily: "Second master, I heard that the master of this party has no followers, so it is better for us to ......."

Zhao Donglin's face sank when he heard this, and he shouted: "Bastard! Hear, which bastard did you listen to? Immediately dispose of the man. There is no heel, there is no heel, the Hengsheng Wang family can give him 30,000 silver? He met the holy driver in the Drunken Immortal Building, and even a dog knew about it, but you didn't know? This person must not move his thoughts, sit down for me! ”

Another shopkeeper said, "Second master, but according to our people in the Wang family, the Hang Seng doesn't seem to be ready to dye red. If they do get it, it is impossible for them to have no movement at all. ”

Zhao Donglin's face moved when he heard this, and he said, "Perhaps, you are preparing to dye the tank?" ”

The shopkeeper shook his head and said, "The Hang Seng is not only dyed blue, but also red. We also have people in their dyeing shop, and if they get the recipe, they can just go to the vat and dye it. Now there has been no movement, which shows that the Hang Seng may not have a prescription. Second master, we still have a chance. ”

When Zhao Donglin heard this, he stood up and said, "Yes, we still have a chance!" In the Hang Seng Ship, there is indeed no such red cloth coming out. If he really has a recipe, why should he rush to dye blue first? His family's blueprint is ranked first, and dyeing it red can really hit us! ”

The other shook his head and said, "Second master, even if there is a chance, that Jia Qiang has already left Beijing, and now I'm afraid it's too late." ”

Zhao Donglin asked in a deep voice: "This Jia Qiang, who met the Holy Driver in the Drunken Immortal Building, is indeed a member of the Jia family on Rongning Street?" ”

One person hurriedly replied: "Yes, it's from Ning Guofu." However, this Jia Qiang and Ning Guofu seem to have broken up, and there is not much contact. However, he has a close relationship with a member of the Rong Mansion, a person named Jia Yun. Now it is Jia Yun who helps Jia Qiang deal with things. That recipe may be in his hand, and the news of the Hang Seng releasing 30,000 taels of silver, I guess it was deliberately released. Otherwise, how could such a confidential matter be passed on like this? Second master, let's go directly to find that Jia Yun to buy a son! ”

After Zhao Donglin got up and paced back and forth a few times, he said slowly: "Well, Jia Zhen from Ningguo Mansion...... But there is a side of the relationship. Well, early tomorrow morning, I'll go there myself and prepare 10,000 taels of silver tickets. ”

All the shopkeepers were shocked and said, "Second master, Hengsheng is said to have given 30,000 taels ......."

Zhao Donglin sneered and said, "Hmph! It is naturally more expensive to find that shaft, but it doesn't take much to go directly to his own family. In this way, first send someone to ask Jia Yun, then Jia Qiang can leave a recipe, how much silver does it want, we can prepare. As long as he is sure that Fang Zi is in his hands, then the rest will be easy to do. ”

This is the nature of a businessman.

……

The next morning, on the canal.

"These five bird plays, one is a tiger, two is a deer, three is a bear, four is an ape, and five is a bird."

"Tiger play, limbs from the ground, the first three throws, but two throws, long waist, side feet to the sky, that is, back distance, front, but each seven passes."

"Deer player, limbs from the ground, the introduction of the neck, three on the left and two, left and right stretch out the feet......"

"The bear player, is leaning on his back and holding his knees with his hands......"

"Poof!"

Watching Vivian learn from Li Jing who demonstrated the five bird operas, when it came to the bear play, seeing the antics of the ancs, Daiyu couldn't help but smile, and shook her head and said, "Xiaojing, I really can't do this...... Rest yourselves. ”

Li Jing felt helpless when she heard this, but after Li Fu used the ginseng soup last night, her breath was much calmer, and she came back with a life, which made her grateful to Daiyu from the bottom of her heart, coupled with Jia Qiang's advice, so everything followed Daiyu, and said with a smile: "Don't be in a hurry, the tiger bear is indecent, my aunt can learn deer opera first." ”

Daiyu smiled and bowed her head, but she didn't say anything about learning or not, and after letting Li Jing and Vivian sit down, Zijuan served tea.

Vivian looked at the blue-glazed orchid teapot and the white-bottomed porcelain pot on the table, and sighed: "It's so beautiful, I originally saw some Yanguo porcelain in the Jinmen General Town Mansion, and I thought it was the most beautiful, but compared to this one, it was almost like a clay pot." ”

Zijuan smiled: "You foreign woman is still weird to talk." ”

Vivian didn't like this title, shook her head and said, "I'm not called a foreign woman, my name is Vivian." ”

Daiyu hurriedly smiled: "She's laughing at you." ”

Vivien shrugged her shoulders and smiled, "Okay, then I'm laughing too." ”

After everyone laughed, and let her go to enjoy the white-background porcelain bowl in her hand, Daiyu asked Li Jing, "How did you become a young helper?" ”

Li Jing smiled, didn't hide much, and talked about how to raise him as a boy when he was a child, how to practice martial arts, how to grow up step by step, how to fight in the rivers and lakes, how to run darts and walk the rivers and lakes, how to negotiate with other gangs, and how to fight for territory if the negotiation failed.

Even if you pick a wonderful talk, it will be enough to talk about it for an hour and a half.

Not to mention that Daiyu, Zijuan and Snow Goose listened attentively, even Vivien stopped admiring stubbornness and listened attentively.

After he finished speaking, Daiyu sighed: "You are really not easy to ......" but she was a little puzzled, and she endured it but asked carefully: "Xiaojing, you are so powerful, how can you be willing to be a roommate for Brother Qiang?" ”

This really doesn't fit her character as a female boss......

When Li Jing heard this, she smiled, and explained how she and Jia Qiang didn't know each other, how they became business partners, how they were bullied by the prince of Huai'an Houfu, and how Jia Qiang stepped forward to protect her, and finally, Jia Qiang also agreed to her unreasonable and rebellious requests.

Mo said that Daiyu, Zijuan and Aunt Xue were stunned when they heard this, and even Vivian called it incredible, because even in the West, after a woman gets married, her surname has to be changed to her husband's, not to mention the children.

Zijuan said incredulously: "Little Qiang Second Master really promised you?" ”

I'm afraid that only a son-in-law will be like this, right?

And the son-in-law is the most despised man in the world......

Seeing them behaving like this, Li Jing smiled and said, "So, I am willing to be a concubine." ”

Xue Yan pouted and said: "Where are you a concubine, you live in the Li family, you don't have to stand up for the rules, and you don't need to raise the child under the name of your wife, and Xiaoqiang's parents are gone...... You don't have to stay at home, you can go out if you want to be naughty, you are more comfortable than your wife! ”

She was a little jealous......

Xue Yan was born as a maid, in slave nationality, and will become a family in the future, even if Daiyu lets her out of the country, I am afraid that it will be difficult to live to the point where Li Jing is.

Daiyu watched it funny from the sidelines, although her heart was also a little chaotic, but she still blessed: "Brother Qiang has no parents, and the clan is ...... I can't control him. He is the most trustworthy, and since he has made it, I think it was really promised to you. You have to live a good life in the future......"

These were the words of the elders, and Li Jing had to stand up and listen to the teachings......

"Sit down."

Daiyu smiled lightly: "You don't have to be polite, Brother Qiang doesn't recognize me as an aunt very much, and she keeps saying that she is a distant relative." ”

Li Jing didn't know how to answer, and Daiyu didn't make it difficult for her, and asked, "What about Brother Qiang?" ”

On the side, Vivian hurriedly replied: "I know, I know, Jia asked me to write a letter to Uncle George last night, and then early this morning, he let his entourage get off the boat and ride a fast horse to Yangzhou." ”

Daiyu was surprised: "What letter?" ”

"Just ask Uncle George to see your father!"

Vivian smiled, and Li Jing added: "Our lord said that the boat ride is still too slow, he sent someone to hurry up the horse, not to care about horsepower, and not to be stingy with silver, let people take the letter to Yangzhou first, and find Vivian's Uncle George to see your father." Our lord said, I can't take your great favor in vain. I was supposed to go in person, but I couldn't rest assured that my father ......."

In fact, it stands to reason that the canal is closer, and the actual road by land is twice as much as the canal.

Normal walking, the canal takes only seventeen days, while the overland route takes twenty-eight days.

But if the 800 miles are urgent, and the horsepower is not cared for, the horse will change when the horse is tired, so that you can get to Yangzhou in seven or eight days......

Vivien grinned, "Miss Daiyu, Jia is so good to you. ”

Zijuan said angrily: "It's Daiyu, not a hairtail!" ”

Snow Goose reminded: "It's good if you call the girl." ”

Vivian shrugged her shoulders and smiled, "Okay, Gu Liang! ”

Daiyu didn't have time to pay attention to this, she asked in a hurry, "Vivian, your uncle surnamed Qiao, can really save my father?" ”

Vivian shook her head and said, "I don't know, Gu Liang, I can't lie to you." However, Uncle George, like Uncle Andrew, is proficient in medical skills, and the direction of proficiency is different, so maybe there is a way. I've heard Jia talk about your father's illness, I've vaguely heard about it, and my uncle seems to have a medicine in his hand that can treat it, but I really can't remember it clearly. Guliang, don't cry, you are so beautiful, the Lord will definitely bless you. ”

Daiyu was both moved and anxious, and said: "I knew this was the case, I should have spoken to me and brought the ginseng!" ”

Li Jing said with a smile: "Aunt Lin gave a little too much ginseng yesterday, and our lord divided half of it and put the iron head on his body, and sent it to Yangzhou along with the letter, rest assured." Aunt Lin, let's exercise our bodies. Your body and bones are better, and when you arrive in Yangzhou, you can take more care of your grandparents. My mother also went early, if it weren't for a good body and bones over the years, I wouldn't be able to hold on to it now, taking care of my father until now. ”

Daiyu was moved when she heard this, looked at Li Jing with red eyes and said, "I...... Can I really do it? ”

Li Jingsa smiled and said, "Originally, I was also weak and sick, but it was a little bit of practice that made me famous." Aunt Lin is everyone's best girl, and she is different from me who is reckless, so she doesn't have to practice so ruthlessly, just practice to be stronger, and she doesn't take medicine all year round. ”

Hearing this, Daiyu slowly nodded and smiled: "If this is the case, it is also my luck." ”

But she was still thinking about whether her father could be saved......
