Chapter 205: I can't help it
The two teams of men and horses carried their respective goods in two directions.
Zhang Guangbei watched Zhu Zhiyuan ride away on horseback. Zhu Yuanwai is a man of temperament, in order to make Zhang Guangbei believe that he will always try to save himself, he is willing to promise his daughter to himself.
But he still reported to Zhu Yuan under a pseudonym, so will this agreement be counted in the future? He said that his daughter was smart and beautiful, and that was still the best way to count.
Three years, three years in the cottage and bandits, I must not have met acquaintances, right?!
Shopkeeper Qi looked at Zhang Guangbei's back and said to the people around him: "I have fought for all of you for a chance to have more lives." Tell the brethren to be polite to the little doctor! If you really want to have a pain, you have to beg someone. ”
The black blind man, the black-faced slaughter, the mountain madman and others nodded together. After thousands of years of Confucian education, the great Chinese people are illiterate thieves, and they also know that scholars are literary and opera stars. There is still awe in his bones, not to mention, this is still a doctor. Copycat has always wanted to have a character.
"There are a lot of goods to eat this time, contact Wu Jin and sell the goods. In addition to the daily necessities we need, the extra money will help us buy some weapons and horses. After the shopkeeper Qi finished his order, he knocked the horse's belly and drove the horse to Zhang Guangbei's side: "Little doctor, let's go on the road too." If you need anything, just say it. ”
"Medicinal materials, pen, ink, paper, inkstone, half of your goods are in it, find it out. There are also newspapers in Nanchang or Hangzhou. That's all I need for now. ”
The shopkeeper Qi smiled, it was good to be able to make a request, which showed that the little doctor also accepted his fate. Although the twisted melon is not sweet, it is still a melon, which is stronger than nothing.
The shopkeeper turned around and said loudly: "The little doctor said that he wants to report to the palace, and every time you go out to do errands in the future, you have to buy some back!" A group of bandits agreed.
In the palace of King Chu in Nanchang, Wu Jin lived like a year, and his heart was restless.
His family lives in a small courtyard in the Chu Palace, and there are people watching him when he enters and exits. The business outside the house can only be remotely commanded by Steward Feng.
At present, during the cotton harvest season, the floods will recede, and the cotton from the north will continue to flow in. Cotton is the raw material of cloth and the source of life. Every year in this season, it is the most intense time of the open and secret struggle between the cloth and the cloth, the price is low, and you can't collect much. The price is high, and the cost of cloth is also high. Harvest early and produce new cloth early, and the price is also cost-effective at high prices. There is inventory after the late harvest, and the cotton can be shipped until it comes out next year.
In short, there are pros and cons to each other, and there is no one-size-fits-all solution. The real way to deal with it is to prepare the silver, look at the market, touch the cotton, and make a temporary decision! But he is in the palace of the king of Chu, what can he do in vain?
Although Wu Jin is under house arrest, he still has the freedom to walk. Stuffed in the small courtyard, his head will become more and more dull, how can there be a way to help King Chu recover the loss of hundreds of thousands of taels of silver?
It's just that there is a eunuch by his side at all times. Even if Wu Jin had sex with his wife and concubine, the eunuch was also standing behind the screen.
Wu Jin is used to this shadow, anyway, wherever he goes, the shadow is there. This shadow occasionally spoke up, mocking him a few words, which was really aggrieved.
If you want to return to your previous life, you must complete the task of the King of Chu as soon as possible. But this is hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, how can you find it casually? Once you miss again, you have to go to see Zhao Ji. Wu Jin didn't want to go yet.
Therefore, it is better to endure this kind of house arrest than to attack rashly, unless there is a perfect solution!
Wu Jin, as usual, was walking by the Wangfu Mirror Lake, thinking about how to use the prince's resources to take advantage of others. The previous goal was to target Qin Feng, but there was no safe plan for exhaustion, so Wu Jin could only expand his thinking and infinitely enlarge the target of the attack.
Nanchang has a lot of water and many lakes. There are two lakes in the palace of the king of Chu, one small and one large, connected together. The small lake is surrounded by dense forests and is somewhat hidden. It is suitable to do some hidden things, and Zhao Ji indulges in the small lake. After drowning, they were pulled up and disposed of separately. It is impossible to really feed the fish, the fish and shrimp in the lake, that is to be eaten.
The big lake is wide, the scenery is good, and when the lake surface is calm like a mirror, the reflection is clear and visible, and it is called the mirror lake.
Mirror Lake is suitable for playing, for strolling and thinking.
Wu Jin was pondering, and suddenly saw a figure standing in front of him, Wu Jin looked up and saw a gray-clothed Taoist standing in front of him. The Taoist looked at him suspiciously: "Don't just look at your feet when walking, it's easy to bump into people." ”
Before Wu Jin could answer, the eunuch behind him had already saluted respectfully: "I've seen the Immortal Dao Master." ”
Wu Jin was surprised in his heart, he had never seen this dead eunuch so low-browed. This immortal Dao is in the palace, and he can eat very well! Zhao Ji said about the longevity of the Tao, but Wu Jin has not met it since he entered the palace. The palace is so big, it is difficult to meet a person. But everyone is in the palace, and they will always meet.
Wu Jin also followed Shi Li and said, "Wu Jin has seen the Immortal Dao Master. ”
The Immortal Dao Elder looked Wu Jin up and down: "You are Zhao Ji's friend?" ”
"Exactly."
"The Wu Jin who invited Zhao Ji to play with the concubine?"
Wu Jin was slightly stunned: "Exactly, no matter what, Zhao Ji is Wu's best friend." Brothers are like siblings......"
"No need to explain! Your concubine is your master, yes, you can play! Ha ha! The Immortal Daoist laughed and raised his hand to point: "People like you must be very interesting." Come, come with me to the gazebo and sit down. "I love Search.com
Wu Jin's heart moved, and he nodded yes. The two walked into the gazebo one after the other.
The Immortal Daoist and Wu Jin sat down opposite each other, and the Immortal Daoist raised his head, looked at the shadow standing aside and said in surprise: "What are you doing here?" ”
The eunuch replied respectfully: "The small one has to be with Wu Jin at any time." ”
He replied respectfully to the Immortal Daoist and called Wu Jin by his name. The Immortal Daoist looked at Wu Jin, who was embarrassed, and his face sank: "Get out of the way!" Poor people talk to people, you eunuchs dare to eavesdrop? ”
The eunuch had a bitter face: "But the prince ......"
"Get out of here, don't let my eyes see you!" The Immortal Dao Chief said impatiently.
The eunuch hesitated for a moment, then turned around and left. Seeing that Wu Jin was convinced, this is the distinguished guest of the Chu Palace!
The immortal Taoist put forward the theory of family loyalty, which made the king of Chu suddenly open. Give the king of Chu a little more allocation, so that the king of Chu can avoid the loss of hundreds of thousands of taels of silver. Even Sun Changshi had to take it.
Since then, the king of Chu has treated him more respectfully, and the immortal Dao chief is a transcendent existence in the palace. Drink and have fun with the prince during the day, preach to the prince at night for stargazing, and then practice double cultivation by himself later.
But the Taoist chief still has a bad temper, almost scolding people when he sees them, and scolding people when he meets them. There's no way, if you want to play high, you have to be coaxed.
However, the immortal Taoist has a word first, only in the palace for seven seven and forty-nine days, and one day is less than one day. When the rest of the palace thought of this, they would be able to tolerate him. Not only tolerance. If you can dodge, you can dodge!
That's how it offended the others.
When the sky is clear and the stars are bright, the immortal Taoist will invite the prince of Chu to gaze with the prince of the world to discuss the Tao of stargazing, pointing to the night sky to popularize some stargazing knowledge for the father and son of the king of Chu.
It's a necessary process, let's put it this way, if you want to win someone's money, whether it's playing mahjong or poker. There is one most important condition, the other party has to know!
People don't know mahjong, they don't know how to play poker, how can you win?
Because the rest of the palace hated the immortal Dao leader, they did not participate in this kind of stargazing gathering.
At first, Sun Zhengyi was afraid that the King of Chu would be bewitched by the Taoist again, so he participated twice, but was scolded by the immortal Taoist for a while, and borrowed the star to criticize. Sun Changshi is also a reader, and he can also quote scriptures to refute it. The killer weapon of the Immortal Dao is: "Your family members are not in the Chu Palace, and you are not worthy of discussing loyalty and future with me." This is the weakness of Sun Changshi's life, Sun Changshi had to say fiercely: "It's still on the way!" ”
"Let's talk about it later!"
In such a battle of wills, Sun Changshi suffered. In fact, they have already suffered a loss, and several family members who originally stayed in the residence have now gone to Nanchang.
What's more, the more these words are said, the bigger the pimple in King Chu's heart becomes. As for the longevity of the Dao, after a few days, people pat their butts and leave, leaving only a butt of ash for themselves. How to look, how not cost-effective.
So Son didn't participate in stargazing.
Finally, the Immortal Dao Master is only responsible for popularizing stargazing knowledge to the King of Chu's father and son, which is so confusing! Therefore, with the status of the immortal Dao Chang in the palace today, how dare the eunuch disobey half a point?
watched the eunuch walk into the distance in an orderly manner and hide his figure. Wu Jin complimented: "The Taoist is full of momentum, and Wu Jin is envious." ”
The Immortal Daoist looked at Wu Jin, his face was torn off, and he said with a smile: "You are forced to stay, I come and go freely." You have begged the king, and you have delusions first. The prince has a request for me, and he is extremely courteous, how can you and I compare? ”
"What the Taoist chief said is." Wu Jin looked ashamed: "In the past, Wu Jin had evil thoughts, and he couldn't harm others, but he was banned by mistake. and his family suffered this unjustified disaster. Regret it late. Today, I am fortunate to meet the Taoist, can I pray for the Taoist's guidance? ”
"I invite you into the pavilion, just to talk and relieve your boredom. You want me to give you pointers, but you are greedy again. The Taoist shook his head.
Wu Jin scolded secretly in his heart, it was you, the chief of the dead road, who asked me to come to the pavilion, and I was interested in handing out the words, do you still want to pretend to be a gesture?
"If Wu Jin suffers alone, he is also to blame. But the family is innocent and trapped in this palace, Wu Jin is uneasy. Wu Jin's concubines and wives also have great admiration for the Taoist, if the Taoist dislikes Wu Jin's delusions, can you bring a few of Wu Jin's concubines or, Mrs? Wu Jin had to hand over the olive branch again and put on the dessert.
Immortal Dao Chang looked at Wu Jin in a daze, and Wu Jin's face slowly became embarrassed.
The Immortal Dao Elder shook his head slightly: "Poor Dao is devoted to cultivation, and I have no interest in your Dao Dao. Wu Jin's face darkened.
Changsheng Dao Chang said again: "But everyone has a fate, and no one in this mansion nagging Poor Dao." Anyway, if you want to be poor, where do you want to point? ”
