"Fu'er, this Shang Yu, do you really want to kill him afterwards?" Li Yinzi looked at Shen Fu with a smile on his face and asked, with a hint of worry in his tone.

"Mother, this Shang Yu has learned too much from that Lu Shaobeishou. I will not take his life for the time being, first, I have not yet obtained his bargaining, and second, when he is about to go to the west to fish, he offers to let me hoard a large amount of rice and grain, and temporarily stop cotton and linen cultivation this year. From his suggestion, it seems that if this person can be used by me, he will definitely be helpful in the future for the restoration of Minyue. Shen Fu was slightly stunned when he saw his mother's expression, but immediately replied.

"Stockpiling rice and grain, stopping cotton and linen planting? Isn't that contrary to the rules of my Shen family over the years? In this way, it will reduce the direct income of millions of taels per year, how can this be? Fu'er, this must not be, Shang Yu, this kid will persuade you like this? It's child's play. Li Yinzi immediately said in surprise.

"Mother! The cultivation of cotton and linen and other materials takes time, and if they are collected from outside and then form a large number of workshops, the profit after making cloth will be several times that of planting. The rice is ripe in more than three months, if the manpower is properly deployed, three seasons can be obtained in a year, my Shen family has nearly 100 granaries idle, plus from outside the purchase, will be able to hoard a large amount of rice and grain within the year, so that two years later, the world will be in chaos, and my Shen family will not sit on the mountain. Shen Fu said with a smile on his face.

"It's nonsense! In this way, how can my Shen family have so much cash for circulation? Li Yinzi did not carefully analyze the meaning of Shen Fu's words at all, but immediately raised questions.

Before Shen Fu took over the management of the Shen family's property, she had always been in charge of the Shen family's huge family business, and she had always used cotton and linen and other things to continuously exchange a large number of silver taels for the Shen family, but now she wanted to grow those worthless rice grains, Li Yinzi was naturally puzzled.

"Mother! You don't know this, my Jiangnan is the land of fish and rice, naturally this rice grain is very light, thirty percent of the land planted rice can be eaten by half of the people in the Central Plains, but that is in peacetime, if the world is surrounded by rebels, when the war continues, not only can not grow grain, but to buy a large amount of rice and grain to supplement their land shortage. ”

"Now that I know that I am really a descendant of the Minyue royal family, I must first expand my financial resources, so I can't let go of this opportunity! Accumulating a large amount of grain, setting up a cloth weaving workshop, the army needs not only food but also clothing and other things, these will be the biggest source of wealth for our Shen family in the future! Shang Yu could see these things at a young age, how could I be willing to kill him? When he said this, Shen Fu's eyes faintly flashed with jealousy.

Shang Yu just took a boat from Zhouzhuang all the way to watch the crops on both sides of the river, and he was able to come up with a way that was enough to expand the Shen family's wealth again, which made Shen Fu a little uneasy in his heart, but he thought that Shang Yu was currently a guilty body, if he fled to another place, how could he know that he would be captured by the Yuan army, so he would rest assured that Shang Yu would be sent to Xiyu Village.

Xiyu Village is located in the middle of nowhere, not far from that, it is a place where small groups of water thieves haunt, and Shang Yu will not easily leave the village to go to that dangerous place.

"I see, this little child has such a vision! If war breaks out, the land south of my country will be a granary, which has not changed since ancient times. This Shang Yu child, you really regard him as a brother, and it is okay. After listening to what Shen Fu said, Li Yinzi immediately said in surprise.

Shen Fu was slightly unhappy in his heart after hearing this, his mother was very kind when Shang Yu kowtowed to her, and only then did he call Shang Yu a child, this kind of title he had never heard from his mother since he was thirteen years old, and when he heard his mother's words at this time, he couldn't help but feel even more resentful of Shang Yu in his heart.

"Mother, this Shang Yu is named Shen Wansi according to my wishes, I am the name of the third out of ten thousand, give him this name, presumably it will not insult him! What do you think of the fact that I will find a time to include him in the family tree, as the son of a distant family who has passed the household registration to his mother's name? Shen Fu didn't think that his mother would really agree with him, and asked tentatively.

"So good! Fu'er, so that Yu'er can do things for my Shen family wholeheartedly, and my mother likes this child very much! In your spare time, you and your mother went to see him. If you make the best use of your talents, your road to recovery will be better! Li Yinzi immediately said happily.

"Yes, then I'm done." Only then did Shen Fu understand that his mother really had a motherly heart for Shang Yu, the young man he met for the first time, and replied with a smile on his face but jealousy in his heart.

"Fu'er, how did you handle the matter of Zhouzhuang Xiangyong? That's a big deal about the safety of Xiyu Village. Li Yinzi saw that Shen Fu answered simply, so she asked another thing.

However, after Shang Yu was sent to Xiyu Village, Shen Fu said that he had something to do and went back to his house, and Shang Yu was arranged by Yu Liu, the manager of Xiyu Village, to a small courtyard according to Shen Fu's request.

"Young Master Yu, you are the young master's righteous brother! This was originally the place where the young master lived when he came, and now it is yours, and your house is also close to the water before and after, which is convenient for boating, and there is also this servant in the house for you to use! If there is any need, send someone to inform the small one! Yu Liu was secretly surprised in his heart, seeing that Shang Yu was very born, when did the Shen family have this family?

Shang Yu was wearing a fine woven cotton robe given to him by Shen Fu at this time, his hair was also tied up, although his face was still a little immature, but there was also some momentum and murderous aura in his expression, which he practiced when he was in charge in Quanzhou, and those slightly murderous aura were obtained after he killed more than a dozen people in Yongchuan, but Shang Yu himself didn't know it.

"Steward Yu, I'm sorry for you!" Shang Yu jumped from the boat driven by Yu Liu to the shore with a small package, to be honest, he was still not very suitable for sailing on the water along the way, but he just forced himself to suppress this discomfort.

"Young Master Yu, then I will retire first." After Yu Liu finished speaking, he motioned to the boatman to turn the bow of the boat and go the way he came, he still didn't want to ask too much about the things arranged by the master's family, and the young man seemed to be preoccupied, so it was better to leave as soon as possible.

Shang Yu didn't answer, just waved his hand to signal that Yu Liu could leave, turned his head and walked towards the gate of the courtyard, which was only a few steps away.

This house is surrounded by water on all sides, and the house is dozens of steps away from the house, and there is a small mound behind the house, with several unknown giant trees, and the house only covers an area of about one acre, which is incomparably small compared to the main house of the Shen family, which covers an area of dozens of acres.

After entering the courtyard, Shang Yu saw a strange scene, a young man dressed in family clothes was standing on a bamboo stool, holding a bamboo pole with his back to him and poking it on the roof, and a maid dressed as a girl next to him was saying, "Hurry up!" In winter, there are no bees in this sugar honeycomb, and it can be used as medicine when taken off! Belch! ”

This girl had many freckles on her face, but it made people look infinitely delicate and lovable, her face was facing the courtyard gate, and when she saw Shang Yu enter the door, she immediately stopped talking, and her face showed a horrified expression.

Shang Yu felt a little funny, and when he was about to say hello, he heard the young man say, "Aren't I stabbing this?" You don't rush to be good or not. Hey, why don't you speak? ”

The young man's posture of holding the bamboo pole remained unchanged, and when he saw the girl looking at the courtyard gate in a daze, he couldn't help but say, "Is it that Brother Jiusi is coming back to the big fish again?" I see how big that fish is, and how attractive it is to my Xiaoying? As he spoke, the young man turned his head to look in Shang Yu's direction.

After just one glance, the young man let go of the bamboo pole in his hand, and the person also fell off the bamboo bench unsteadily, grabbed Xiao Ying and shouted loudly: "Help! The ghost of the business steward is here. Pulling Xiao Ying, he wanted to run to the room of the house.

When Shang Yu saw this scene, he couldn't help but be startled, and said in his heart: "Didn't Brother Shen Fu inform them of the news that I was coming here?" ”

Although he thought so, his figure flashed, and he stopped in front of Mu Thirteen and Xiao Ying with a speed like the wind.

"Thirteen, Xiao Ying. What do you run? I didn't do anything bad. Shang Yu looked at Mu Shisan and Xiao Ying and said with a smile, the two in front of him hadn't seen each other for more than two months, and their height had grown a little, so they were obviously well taken care of in the Shen family.

After hearing this, Mu Shisan immediately pulled Xiao Ying to kneel on the ground, and said with a crying voice: "Business steward!" You must have become a fairy, if you are a ghost, it will not appear during the day, and I will never say bad things about you behind Xiaoying's back in the future, please leave quickly! Every year we will give you money for burning paper, I hope you have a lot of it, don't scare us. ”

Seeing that Shang Yu was dressed brightly, and stopped him and Xiao Ying at the door of the room at a ghostly speed from the gate of the courtyard, Mu Shisan was so frightened that he became incoherent.

Shang Yu sighed, this strange way of meeting made him a little uncomfortable, he originally thought that the scene with everyone would be very touching, but he didn't expect to be regarded as a ghost and god by Mu Thirteen, his most admired subordinate.

At this moment, a person jumped out of the door of the ground room behind Shang Yu, holding a piece of yellow paper in his hand and slapped it behind Shang Yu.

"Ding Seventeen? What are you doing with this ghostly thing? I'm not dead, what are you doing with these things? Shang Yu couldn't help but wonder.

Holding the charm he had just drawn and wanted to suppress the ghost, Ding Seventeen immediately cried and said, "You must be a ghost immortal!" Steward, I beg you to spare us! ”

Shang Yu also secretly thought in his heart why his skills became sensitive, his body felt extremely light, and he was able to stop in front of Ding 13 and Xiao Ying in an instant, and Ding 17 could catch the air attack from behind, could it be that his body changed in the few days that he was tied up by Li Yanhong?

"You fools! I'm still alive, and I was just sent to this western fishing village by my cousin, what are you talking nonsense? Don't you see a shadow under my feet? Shang Yu said angrily and funny, and only after he finished speaking did he let go of Ding Qiqi's wrist as thick as dry wood.

At this moment, a surprised voice came from the courtyard gate: "It turns out that the business manager has already come?" ”

Hearing the voice, Shang Yu was a little familiar, and when he turned his head, he turned his head and saw that it was the older Gu Jiusi, only to see that this person was carrying a carp that was several feet long and still trembling and still trembling and walked inward, with a look of surprise on his face.

"At noon, I saw a letter from the young master of the table, but I didn't expect you to come so quickly, and I haven't had time to tell everyone!" Gu Jiusi looked at Shang Yu with a smile and said.

Only then did Shang Yu turn his head and say to Mu 13 and Ding 17, "How?" I've said it all, I'm not dead! There was a hint of chivalry on his face.

Mu Thirteen, Ding Seventeen, and Xiao Ying's faces changed several times after hearing this, and only after a few breaths did they understand, and immediately cheered, grabbed Shang Yu's arm, and tears appeared in their eyes.

"It's great that the business steward is not dead!" After Mu Shisan reacted from the shock, he grabbed Shang Yu's hand and said, tears flowing uncontrollably from his eyes.

"It's true! The business steward's arm is a hot land, not a ghost, what a miracle! Ding Qiqi's mouth trembled for a long time, and he only said this sentence.

"Business manager, have you seen our young lady? Now that she heard that she is on Emei Mountain, she doesn't know if she is doing well? Xiao Ying saw that Shang Yu was really not a ghost, but she said this, and she was the only one among these family members and maids who knew about Lu Wan and Shang Yu, and when she was separated from Lu Wan, Lu Wan told Xiao Ying about the affairs between Shang Yu and her, and Xiao Ying was a little worried about her own young lady.

"Xiao Wan is on Emei Mountain?" After hearing this, Shang Yu was like being struck by lightning, and thought to himself: "What can I do if I know her whereabouts?" I'm in a sinful state at the moment, and I don't have anything to look for, do I need food all the way to find her? ”

"What are you people still doing in the courtyard? Why don't you call all the servants and maids in each room? In the future, the business manager will be our young master, and we can't call him the business manager in the future, Mu Thirteen, Ding Seventeen, go and call someone. Xiao Ying, you serve the young master first and enter the main hall. "Gu Jiusi is the eldest among the families, and after the group arrived at the Shen family, they were arranged to be in this Shen family's house in the West Fishing Village, and he was the leader at this time.

What Shen Fuxin said was that Shang Yu changed his name to Shen Yu and temporarily lived in another house to avoid the eyes and ears of the officers and soldiers.

In the evening, Shang Yu got rid of the inquiries of the Lu family and the maids, and was a little tired and sent back to the room prepared for him by Mu Shisan.

Looking at the front and back rooms, Shang Yu felt a little empty in his heart, and said in his heart: "The study, the spacious bedroom, and more than a dozen family members and maids, all of which were given to me by the Shen family, and my title has changed from business manager to Young Master Shen Yu, but my parents, master, and Xiao Wan are not far away from me." ”

"Young Master Yu, don't blame me for being too talkative! The young master takes too much care of our Lu family, and every day he cleans up this house, and then waits for a guest to entertain him, and there is a tael of silver per month, although it is less than half of Quanzhou, but the things here are very cheap, but in fact, they can buy more than twice as many things as Quanzhou, I think you seem to be a little depressed, can you talk to Thirteen? Seeing that Shang Yu was browning, Mu 13 asked tentatively.

After Shang Yu heard Mu Thirteen's words, he replied: "Thirteen brothers, I'm fine, but I just remembered that the Lu family's old man disappeared at sea, and my mother was also missing, and her whereabouts were unknown. ”

"It's good that you're okay, the old man is good, and the name of benevolence and righteousness in Quanzhou is all over the world, and the Quanzhou volunteers frame our Lu family, and one day in the future will be revealed to the world, and my aunt will be fine!" My grandfather is also in the ship. Mu Shisan persuaded Shang Yu, but his eyes began to turn a little red.

"In any case, we will live, thirteen, tomorrow you will take a boat tour of the village with me, and I will be familiar with this village. Now you go back, I want to rest. Shang Yu remembered the agreement with Shen Fudi, and he also had to calm down and think about what he was going to do during the time he was hiding in Xiyu Village, he had been on the road recently, and he really needed to think carefully about where he would go in the future.

"Young Master Yu, then I'll go down first." Although he called the young master in his mouth, it was to cover up Shang Yu's identity, and all the Lu family's family members and maids would call Shang Yu like this in the future, but in their hearts, they regarded Shang Yu as a hero, Shang Yu was calm and calm in the caravan, and finally jumped off the cliff in the mountains, which was a hero in their hearts.

After speaking, Mu 13 lowered his head and retreated, and closed the door.

Shang Yu sat down at the table and opened the package on the table, and when he saw one of the objects, his face immediately showed a hint of joy.

"Brother Shen Fu didn't want to take possession of my book, it seems that I misunderstood him." Seeing this book, which was not afraid of fire, returned to his hand, Shang Yu couldn't help but be overjoyed.
