In front of Zhaode Fang, there were several fast horses, and three men wearing the armor of the sailor stood at the door.

After a while, Yang San came out and led the three of them to the inner courtyard.

Ruan Xiaoqi looked left and right, there was only the back of a Taoist priest, and next to him, many Taoist children sat on the futon and circled.

Ruan Xiaoqi scratched his head, was patted on the shoulder, turned his head to see that it was Song Jiang, and said happily: "Brother, where is Shaozai?" ”

Song Jiang pursed his mouth and said, "That's it." ”

"My God, our Shaozai has really become a monk?" Ruan Xiaoqi's face was full of surprise.

Song Jiang smiled and said, "Shaozai is a Taoist, and he is still the junior brother of the head of Yanqing Guan, and the deputy head of Taoism in the world." ”

Ruan Xiaoqi couldn't help but be speechless, secretly thinking that Shaozai was really unfathomable, and he could mix everywhere.

After practicing a full set of Baduan Jin, Yang Lin was refreshed, got up and turned his head, and saw a group of people gathered outside the courtyard, peeking with their heads exposed.

"Ruan Xiaoqi, why are you here?"

Ruan Xiaoqi hurriedly ran over and said with a smile: "Shaozai, our Chenghai Master enters Beijing at this time of year to report on his work, which is a rule that has been handed down from the past. Hehe, this time the villain came, and he brought nothing for Shaozai, only a few wild ginseng. ”

After finishing speaking, the sailor general behind him handed over three or four small boxes, Yang Lin opened it and saw that a flat and bearded ginseng looked like five or six catties, and a yellow-brown thing that didn't look like ginseng.

"What is this?"

Ruan Xiaoqi saw that there was a plump and beautiful woman standing beside him, so he stepped forward and said with a smile: "There is a species that only exists in the far north, its name is the fur seal, and this is the fur seal whip. ”

Yang Lin snapped the lid shut, waved his hand and motioned Yun Niang beside him to put it away, sat down on the rattan chair under the tree in the courtyard, and asked, "Where did you get this?" ”

"Back to Shaozai, this is a trade between the Goryeo and the Jurchen barbarians in the north, and I want to ship it to Mizhou to trade, and I was given by my subordinates..."

Yang Lin frowned, and interrupted: "Bastard, Lao Tzu has already said, now Mizhou Port, Mingzhou Port, and Huating Port are all in charge of our own city department, and you thief and bird still dare to rob and take Lao Tzu's words as a gust of wind in your ears?" ”

Ruan Xiaoqi was startled, and hurriedly said: "Shaozai is angry, it's not that the villains are forced to rob them, it's really some Goryeo barbarians who don't follow the rules, they don't go to our ports in order to evade taxes, but trade with some coastal merchants on the islands and reefs." ”

When Yang Lin heard this, he was immediately disgusted, the Great Song Dynasty opened the country to trade with Siyi, which was a great favor compared with the previous dynasties.

You must know that when it came to the later Ming Dynasty, they just didn't do business with the Wa Kingdom, which almost drove them crazy.

Now that the country is open, and you have to take advantage of these small advantages, pay taxes obediently and make a lot of money, so you will be disgusting for this tax money, right?

Yang Lin said in a deep voice: "This time I have played Your Majesty, and invited the kings and royal families of all foreign countries to come here to watch the ceremony. When the time comes, I will negotiate with the Koreans, and if I don't restrict the domestic merchants, I will give them some looks. ”

From Ruan Xiaoqi's words, it is not difficult for Yang Lin to see that the Jurchens have begun to seek development.

They secretly did business with Japanese Goryeo earlier, even if they were oppressed to adjust the price of ginseng to the price of cabbage, now that there is such a good product to sell, the price must not be so low.

"Our good neighbor, the Great Khitan Kingdom that has been repaired forever, trouble is coming..."

Song Jiang was stunned and said, "What's the trouble?" ”

"It's bigger trouble than the sky, and it is estimated that Da Liao still can't hold on."

Song Jiang couldn't ask the answer, his heart was itching, and he scratched his ears and cheeks and said, "Could it be that the Great Song Dynasty is going to start the Northern Expedition?" ”

Looking at the current world, there is only one Song Dynasty that can compete with Da Liao now, at least on paper.

Yang Lin ignored him, patted Ruan Xiaoqi on the shoulder and said, "After you go back, train the sailors diligently, and there is a lot of planting and promoting the brothers in Mizhou Port." It's like this official promoting you, understand? ”

Ruan Xiaoqi said with a smile: "The villain understands, and he listens to Shaozai." ”

"Well, let's go, you are the commander of the Navy, it's not good to stay with me for a long time."

Ruan Xiaoqi saluted and turned around to leave, Yang Lin coughed lightly and said, "Sea seals... Bring more. ”

"Understood, villain understood."

Song Jiang looked at Ruan Xiaoqi's distant back and said with a smile: "Can this muddy boy support Master Chenghai?" ”

"Am I relying on him? There are so many people left in Mizhou Port, plus Xujiazhuang, he can still make a mistake for me, I will break him first. ”

As Yang Lin was talking, a few maids came in front of him, and after washing and wiping his face, Yang Lin continued: "This Chenghai Master is in command, but I bought it from Cai Jing for more than 100,000 yuan. ”

Song Jiang's old face turned red, but fortunately he was dark enough to see it. These high-ranking officials selling their official positions have simply become the norm in today's imperial court, and Song Jiang is a somewhat conservative person in his heart, and he can't be as plain as Yang Lin.

At the turn of spring and summer, it was very comfortable under the shade of the trees, Yang Lin chatted with Song Jiang for a while, and said with great interest: "Stay here today, have lunch with me and then leave." ”

Song Jiang smiled and agreed, at this time, a young man in light armor walked into the courtyard, and after coming in, he looked left and right, and saw Yang Lin running under the tree and said excitedly: "Father-in-law!" ”

It was Yang Tianci who came, this kid didn't like to practice martial arts, but in order to be like a few brothers, he wore armor every day and walked around the little wolf camp.

Yang Lin is angry when he sees these goods now, last time he brought a South China tiger, and he almost scared himself and the room full of concubines to death. A few days ago, another explosive was released, and in the middle of the night, the audition blew a hole in the wall of the Zhaodefang school grounds.

"You kid is a ghost, what kind of bird thing did you do to make your father angry."

Yang Tianci called out and said, "Father-in-law, I have built the rocket you want, do you want to try it?" ”

Yang Lin knew that this cadre was very talented for strange skills, and he had found him many craftsmen and ancient books since he was a child, and he was overjoyed when he heard the words, and got up and said: "It's about the same, even if Lao Tzu didn't raise you in vain, take it out and take a look." ”

Yang Tianci clapped his hands, and there were two children who were about the same age, but they were much taller than him, and they were carrying a bamboo tube-shaped thing in with a smile.

Yang Tianning and Yang Tianan, one of them was carrying a cloth bag behind him, and came over with a smile: "The child visits his father-in-law, isn't his father-in-law angry?" ”

"Is this the thing?" Yang Lin circled around, but he looked good, and the leads were complete.

Yang Tianci divided five by two, and tied wings to the bamboo tube launcher, and said: "In order to prevent this thing from falling and hurting people, we only launched this kite, and then went to the sky, this bag is a live buckle, and it can be held when flying, and it can be automatically untied when it falls!" ”

Yang Lin was very interested and said, "Hurry up and try it." If it succeeds, the previous account will be written off with you. ”

Yang Tianning was overjoyed and urged: "Third brother, hurry up." ”

The fuse ignited, and Yang Lin rushed behind Song Jiang, pulling his shoulders and showing his head.

Hearing only a sharp sound, the bamboo tube exploded halfway, and the kite really flew into the sky, and after a while, it rained flowers in Zhaodefang.

Although it is very little, it adds up to a lot, and when the time comes, it will be enough for Zhao Ji to pretend to use it.

Yang Lin came out from behind Song Jiang at this time, shook his sleeves with his hands behind his back, and said, "Yes, you two little monkeys, also learn from God, don't know to make me angry all day long." ”

Several female dependents in the nearby courtyard were all attracted to the courtyard, and they came to this courtyard with their young age.

Seeing that there were many living people, he timidly hid behind Yang Lin, staring at the launcher on the ground with wide eyes with great interest.

Yang Lin smiled: "Jiangmen Tiger Girl, are you still afraid of life?" ”

Chong Guiyi pointed to a few godsons and asked curiously: "They are so young, and they also wear armor, are they all military men?" ”

Words with a slight northwest accent came out of the mouth of a Lori, especially such a cute Lori, which made people listen to it very comfortably.

Young Mu Ai, Yang Tianning saw such a beautiful young lady, and rushed forward and asked, "Father-in-law, what is this?" ”

Yang Lin smiled and held Taotao and said, "This is you, well, stepmother." ”

The three monkey cubs hurriedly stepped forward to salute, blushing as if they were really ripe peaches.

Although the family is a family of military generals, his great-grandfather is a great Confucian from the top of the generation.

The seed master has the heart to train his favorite little daughter into a little lady, so there are many rules, what is not a skirt, no smile is not teeth, and the behavior of sitting and lying down must pay attention to manners and demeanor.

At this time, Tao Tao returned to everyone's beautiful style, met her godson quite decently, and exchanged a few words.
