Yue Zheng stared at the chopsticks on the bowl in a daze, and only after a long time did he speak: "Actually, after I sold the little hairpin to Song Jinfeng for six taels of silver, I returned to Songjiang and returned to my old business to do the work of fishing. Over the years, he has also saved some family funds, married a wife and had children. ”

Speaking of this, he glanced at Yue Yue, who was eating sauced beef, and sighed: "In the past few years, I have never thought of looking for the sister who was sold by me back then......"

Speaking of this, he was a dark-skinned man in his thirties, and his eyes turned red, and tears were about to drip at his sight.

Yue Zheng raised his sleeves and pretended to wipe his nose, secretly wiped his eyes, and continued: "Last year, I took out all the money I had saved to build two big boats, and hired a few fishermen from around me to go out to sea to fish......

"Oh?" Chen Xian pondered slightly, and then asked, "What does the eldest brother mean?" ”

"I can't afford to hold a big boat on my own, and over the years, somehow fishing has become more and more difficult, and I often get nothing out of the sea." When Yue Zheng said this, his mood became more and more depressed, and he said cowardly: "Even so, I may be able to hold on, but there are strong people who are embarrassed, and they want to accept my two big boats at a low price, and I don't agree, so they gather a few people to coerce ......"

Sea? Isn't this Ming Dynasty a sea ban? Chen Xian was puzzled for a while, but suddenly remembered that it was the twelfth year of orthodoxy, and it had only been more than ten years since the last time the Three Treasure Eunuchs went to the West, and it was not the era of strict defense against the sea in his habitual impression.

As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves, but saw that one of his arms was covered with bruises and purple.

"Oh......" Chen Xian squinted, turned his head to look at Mi Yu and Su Xinxuan, and saw that Mi Xian's eyebrows were tightly locked, obviously very annoyed by what happened to Yue Zheng, while Su Xinzheng only raised his eyebrows and ate the food by himself, as if he had already seen this kind of thing.

"Did you sell your uncle's boat to them?" Chen Xian asked.

"No ......" Yue Zheng shook his head: "My two ships cost a total of nearly five hundred taels of silver, and they only paid five taels, and now as long as they can't find me, they can't report to the government......"

"What does my uncle mean by staying in Hangzhou for a few days to avoid the limelight?" After Chen Xian said this, he put down the chopsticks and looked at Yue Zheng with an indifferent smile.

Yue Zheng nodded gloomily.

Chen Xian quietly listened to his words and patted his sleeve: "It's full." ”

"Brother—"

"My sister, Feng Niang has ordered, I really can't let you come......"

Suddenly, there was the sound of hurried footsteps outside the door.

"Crunch." The wooden door was pushed open, but it was Lu Xiaochai who was crying with pear blossoms and rain, and at this moment she was still followed by a running hall junior with an embarrassed face.

As soon as she entered the door, she saw a table full of dishes, and saw her lover sitting at the table looking at her with a smile, so she took out a Xiupa, dipped the tears on her cheeks, and then looked at the black and thin man faintly and called, "Brother......"

Yue Zheng was obviously a little excited, his hands trembled slightly at this time, and when he thought of his selfish actions, he felt even more ashamed, and finally just asked with a stiff expression, "Sister?" ”

Lu Xiaochai's tears flowed down again, and she nodded silently.

More than ten years is too long, so long that Yue Zheng can hardly believe that the woman in front of him, who is more delicate than a blooming flower, is actually his own sister, even if his eyebrows and eyes are still a little similar to his memory, but he still feels a little strange.

Her younger sister has become the Oiran of Hangzhou City, and she is in love with the promising Wenqu star Chen Xing, and she will inevitably enter a wealthy family with Chen Xingzhi's high school in the future.

When Yue Zheng thought of this, he felt that he had come to join his family, which was really selfish, and it was even more difficult to speak for a while.

Lu Xiaochai was slightly stunned when she saw that Yue Zheng was silent, but she was always weak and kind, and when she raised her eyes, she saw a black and thin child sitting at the table and looking up at herself, so her heart softened, and she asked, "Is this my brother's child?" ”

"His name is Yue Yue." Yue Zheng nodded.

Chen Xian saw that the occasion when the brother and sister recognized each other was nervous, and he felt that it was because he was not suitable for these outsiders here, so he raised his eyebrows at Mi Yu: "Brother Mi, Brother Su, the charcoal in this house is too stuffy, go out and take a breath!" ”

The three of them went out of the room, found a random corridor chair on the corridor and sat down, Chen Xian stared at Mi Hao, and said, "Brother Mi, when I saw my uncle roll up his sleeves, you looked angry?" ”

"Coercion by force, forced buying and selling, it is really hateful!" Mi Yu nodded.

"Haha-" Su Xinqi smiled, squinted his eyes and said, "Just because of this, you are resentful of being like this?" If you really set foot in the countryside, what you see and hear every day, won't you be so angry that you will draw a sword and kill someone? ”

It seemed that the contemptuous meaning in these words angered this noble son, who usually did not speak much, he frowned, and said in a dissatisfied tone: "My Ming Dynasty is now clean and honest, the country is prosperous, and it is unprecedented for the people to live and work in peace and contentment in a hundred years, why did Mr. say this?" ”

Su Xinzhi raised his eyebrows, and was about to open his mouth to refute, but was interrupted by Chen Xian urgently: "Hey, I just want to ask, is Brother Mi interested in doing one thing?" ”

"What's the matter?" Both turned their heads to look at him.

Chen Xian smiled: "We bought my eldest brother's fishing boat. ”

"This ......" Mi Yun was stunned, wondering in his heart, could it be that he wanted to use silver to fund his eldest brother, who met for the first time? If it's silver, then there is, not to mention three or five hundred taels, even three or five thousand taels is not a problem, but this shouldn't be his original intention, right?

"We're going to buy a few more boats, the more the better, the bigger the better." As if he saw what Mi Yu was thinking, Chen Xian raised his eyebrows and continued: "No matter how extravagant Brother Mi's family is, I'm afraid he has never been involved in fishing and hunting, if he can find a way here, maybe it will also be of some benefit to Brother Mi's troubles?" ”

The trouble that Chen Xian said was naturally the words that Mi Yu said about no more goals when they met for the first time. Chen Xian figured out that this Mi Yu was either a high-ranking official or a son of a wealthy family, and if he wanted to do something outside of the family's industry, I am afraid that this fishing industry or maritime trade would be the best direction of development.

"I want to...... Fishing for profit? Mi Yu hesitated and opened his mouth to ask, and then frowned and said: "But that Yue Zheng said that it is difficult to fish now, and fishermen like him say so......"

"Brother Mi doesn't have to worry about this." Chen Xian smiled mysteriously, and said step by step: "Thinking about the three treasure eunuchs back then, what kind of glory was that? ”

"Cut-" Su Xinzhi poured a basin of cold water in time: "Just buy a few fishing boats, and you can dominate the four seas?" If this is the case, then the fishermen of Fujian and Guangzhou are already dominant! ”

Chen Xian glanced at this guy, and continued to say to Mi Yun: "I bought fishing boats to form a fleet, not only can I dominate the four seas, cough cough, not only can I make a lot of profits, but also help many people who fled because of famine!" ”

Mi Yu thought for a long time, and didn't know what Chen Xian was referring to, so he simply didn't think about it anymore, and then thought about it, and then he didn't have much silver, so he said: "How much silver does Brother Chen need, three thousand taels is enough, if it is not enough, I am afraid that I will ...... it after I return to Beijing."

Atmosphere! Look at the people who are called local tyrants, they can be depressed for a long time because of a hundred taels of silver flower sticks, and their own family background is compared with this local tyrant, which is simply a drop in the bucket, plus this guy doesn't care when he speaks, he can kill people.

"Enough is enough!" Chen Xian waved his hand and said sourly: "After all, we are inexperienced, let's make it smaller...... first."

In fact, the silver in Chen Xian's hand is absolutely enough, but he has always figured out that the identity of this Mi Yu is not simple, and then he thinks that the sea ban of the Ming Dynasty will be strict at some point, if he pulls Mi Yun on the boat now, maybe he can use the relationship behind him to turn around at that time.

"Hmph, although you kid is rich, you are stupid!" Su Xin glanced at Mi Yun with contempt, and snorted coldly: "Chen Xian, this kid is scheming, he sold you, I'm afraid you have to help count the money!" ”

Mi Yu was stunned, and glanced thoughtfully at Chen Xian's cousin from the countryside, how could he beg for food and speak so arrogantly?

Chen Xiansheng was afraid that Su Xin would punish his good deeds, so he immediately clapped his head and said: "Don't listen to this nonsense, this matter should be sooner rather than later, and when I hold a combing banquet for Xiaochai, we will go to Songjiang together......"
