"Fourth master, those troublemakers have gone back."

Huang Yunheng nodded slightly, signaling that he knew, and a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes. The tenants came to the Huang Mansion to beg and kneel in the ancestral hall, but Huang Siye didn't pay attention to it. Trouble? The Huang family is protected by a high wall, and there are dozens of people in the Zhuang Ding Courtyard, as well as knives, arrows, bows and crossbows, and they are not afraid of the people. They rebelled best, and the soldiers trained by the county's 100 regiments were strong and strong, and they just happened to kill chickens with knives to show the monkeys. Huang Siye is only worried that after the opening of Mulberry Garden, these disgruntled poor customers will make trouble. If it is normal, I must teach this troublesome lesson a lesson. However, Huang Siye has more important guests, so he is magnanimous and does not care about these poor customers.

"What's going on outside the Yellow Member?" The guest surnamed Lu asked casually.

"It's a trivial matter," Huang Yunheng didn't care, and asked with a smile, "I want this batch of goods, when will it arrive?" ”

"Five days from now." Lu Changsheng looked left and right, and said in a low voice: "This batch of goods is only 30% of the price on the market, as long as Huang Yuanwai hoards it for a while, he will make a lot of money." Lu first congratulated the outsider. He took a sip of the teacup, exhaled, and said with a smile, "Doing business is about credit, and Huang Yuanwai only needs to prepare two taels of silver." ”

"Next time there is such a deal, Shopkeeper Lu still has to think about Huang."

The two smiled and exchanged a few words together, and the shopkeeper Lu got up to say goodbye. After Huang Yunheng sent him away from the small gate, he summoned the housekeeper Liu San'er and instructed: "Arrange the treasury in the next few days, and in five days, there will be a batch of important goods to be delivered to the village." ”

"Don't worry, sir." Liu San'er said respectfully, "This matter is on the villain." ”

Huang Yunheng nodded, and whispered, "Be careful, don't let people notice." ”

This batch of goods is not coming from the right way, it is undoubted, I am afraid that it is a thief. The owner of Lu's shopkeeper, Qiu Darui has some friendship with Huang Yunheng, but his methods are far more ruthless than him. Huang Yunheng originally heard that he had gone to Guanxi to do business with the Liao State, but when the Liao army went south, Qiu Darui contacted the merchants in the southeast to raise grain and grass for him and loot the people's wealth. Huang Yunheng went his way and made a windfall. After the Liao army retreated, Qiu Darui never appeared again, and Huang Yunheng thought that he had retreated to Hebei with the Liao army, but the clinker people came to the door and introduced such a lucrative deal.

"The goods are complicated, I'm afraid it's stolen goods, but I don't know where the stolen goods are?" Huang Yunheng groaned, "Could it be that the retreat of the Liao army is left behind?" Or...... When did the surnamed Qiu get in touch with Haikou? This man really has a lot of hands and eyes. After thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't think of a reason, although he was afraid, he couldn't give up the seventy percent of the profits. Although the interest rate of usury is high, the poor ghosts have long been unable to squeeze oil, otherwise, Huang Yunheng would not have to take back the tenant land to rebuild the mulberry garden.

"The goods are not engraved, whatever, support the bold, starve the cowardly."

Huang Yunheng muttered to himself, suppressed the fear in his heart, fell back on the recliner, let out a long breath, and closed his eyes.

............

The sky was gray, the rain was dripping, the boat docked in Xuanzhou Mansion, and the shopkeeper Lu hurriedly went down to the dock with an oil-paper umbrella. There were few pedestrians on the bluestone road, no one paid attention to his behavior, he hurriedly walked into the Gaosheng Inn, and threw off the oil-paper umbrella under the blue and black eaves, and the shopkeeper welcomed him into the store flatteringly.

"Come in."

This sound made the shopkeeper Lu's heart tremble slightly, and he opened the door with bated breath, and the smell of borneol came to his face.

The No. 1 room faces due south, although it is a rainy day, the room is still very bright, and the copper stove is smoking cigarettes. The shopkeeper only said that the big officials who lived in the store were exquisite, but he didn't know that just such a thin stick of incense was more than the salary he earned for a month's hard work. In the faint smoke, a glance came over, and Lu Zhang stood in a proper manner, and said respectfully: "Dongjia, Huang Yunheng agreed." His subordinates made an appointment with him to deliver the treasure five days later. ”

The room was as silent as empty, and Shopkeeper Lu didn't dare to look up at the owner's face.

Qiu Darui hated to be stared at his face the most, because he only had one eye and the other, and it is said that when the Liao and Song Dynasty were fighting, a stray arrow pierced through the eyeball, and the strength was exhausted, and it almost penetrated his head. The shopkeeper Lu didn't dare to squint, and Qiu Darui also hated people staring at his sleeves, the left and right hands caged in the sleeves, one hand had four fingers left, and the other hand had three left. It was when he was trading with the Mobei Erbo Department that he was frozen in a snowstorm.

After the Liao army retreated, he risked staying in Jiangnan, bribes, and threats, and most of the properties he bought at a very low price when the Liao army entered the army were retained. Seeking wealth and danger, being ruthless to oneself and being even more ruthless to others, this body is the best proof. If it weren't for that, how could he have experienced ups and downs and amassed a net worth that can be called a rich country.

"Well done." With a compliment, the shopkeeper Lu bowed down and said, "It's all the face of the owner." ”

"Hmph, Huang Yunheng is a timid person, if you don't do it, I'm afraid he won't dare to take it." Qiu Darui sneered, "However, where is his family business, he can run away from the monk, but he can't run the temple, and if he does it this time, he can't do it in the future." There was a chill in his words, which made people shudder. The shopkeeper Lu clearly remembers that not long ago, a shopkeeper was tied up by Qiu Daguan and sunk to the bottom of the sea because of his unfavorable affairs, and the rich man in the countryside who didn't know how to lift up was killed by bandits for no reason.

"If it weren't for the location of his kennel that happened to hide our goods, I wouldn't have lifted Huang Yunheng, a rat."

Qiu Darui's hoarse voice was full of contempt, and he ordered: "This matter is left to you, and I will go out for a few days." ”

"Yes." Shopkeeper Lu hurriedly agreed, "Don't worry. ”

Qiu Darui waved his hand, and the shopkeeper Lu withdrew from the door tremblingly. Looking at the closed door, Qiu Darui had a look of disgust on his face. Since he was wanted by the Military Intelligence Department, he no longer dared to walk outside in his true form. Over the years, he has become more and more accustomed to this kind of life. He has been mixed with the Mobei Barbarians all the year round, and his mentality has also changed a lot, and he has become more and more regarded as an ordinary thing. For the sake of power and wealth, there is nothing that cannot be abandoned. Especially look down on this kind of cautious Song people, who dare not disobey only because of the lives of their wives and children.

After a while, another henchman knocked on the door and entered.

"Preparing a ship to Hangzhou." Qiu Darui instructed, "Send a letter to Pu Daguan, we have sold this batch of goods." ”

"Yes." The shopkeeper agreed, ready to go out on errands.

"Wait." The shopkeeper immediately stood still, and waited respectfully, as if he were accustomed to such a situation.

One eye stared fiercely ahead, as if there was a trap, and as if there was a treasure. When Qiu Darui makes the most important decision, he never gives himself too much time to hesitate. While the shopkeeper was waiting for a short time, many considerations that had been hesitating for a long time passed through his mind, and he took a deep breath and said, "Please ask the official Pu to talk about it for me, I want to visit the Metropolitan Governor of Fauatu." Tell Pu Daguan that if this matter is successful, I will be grateful! ”

The shopkeeper retreated, Qiu Darui looked at the rain curtain outside the window, and a few swallows were huddled in their nests under the eaves.

His eyes narrowed, and a sneer appeared on his lips. He has always felt that businessmen can only make the fastest and most money when they stand by the side of powerful forces, so when he makes money, he doesn't want to be separated from the strong people he relies on. Listening to Pu Abin, after the big water eater grabbed a handful in Quanzhou, he was very satisfied. Now you can only deflect the trade winds, and you will return to the Great Eclipse with a full load of captive. However, Qiu Darui felt that this was not the best result. If the Great Eater can leave some of the warships behind and constantly harass the sea route between the Song State and the Great Food, these merchants can not only help sell the stolen goods, but also monopolize the treasure trade between the two countries, the Great Food and the Song State, then it will be the real daily gold fight.

Ezhou, the palace inside, Zhao Qi looked at the palace attendants kneeling in the hall with a gloomy face.

"Your Majesty, it's not that the villains are incompetent, they have a life, these palace maids are all good women, and they are not concubines or slaves when they enter the palace to serve Your Majesty, and if Your Majesty does not canonize them as concubines, they will not be lucky. Even if His Majesty wants to canonize the concubine, he must follow the etiquette system, follow the ancestral family law, and only after passing the ceremony can he be lucky. Chen Xiangye said that His Majesty did anything ridiculous, it was the sin of the villains around him to seduce him. The Ninety-Five Emperor is not punished by the imperial court, and the villains will atone for their sins, Your Majesty, you can pity the poor villain. ”

The attendants wept and kowtowed, and their foreheads were swollen. A palace maid with a pale face and a somewhat childish face huddled in the corner of the dormitory with her knees folded, looking at this scene in horror. Zhao Qi has always had the disease of widowhood, and he still likes to be lucky and immature. In the past few years, he has been turbulent and displaced, and he still cares about the dignity of the king. The second great ceremony was imminent, but there was almost nothing to do with him, and the emperor's anger became more and more vigorous, and he gradually made old mistakes. Originally, he wanted to be fortunate to someone, but the palace maid accepted it with shame and resentment. Today, this palace maid was unwilling, not only struggled desperately, but also called for help and attracted the attendants. Zhao Qi was furious, and ordered the attendants to hold down the hands and feet of this slut, but every one of these attendants dared to help, but knelt down and kowtowed to admonish. They persuaded and persuaded him, and even carried out the prime minister's mansion to suppress him, which was simply rebellious.

"You, you," Zhao Qi pointed at these kowtow insects with a grim face, "What the hell is listening to the Prime Minister's Mansion?" Or do you listen to me? ”

A sentence was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and everyone in the room did not dare to speak. In order to prevent the internal servants from interfering in politics, the Prime Minister deliberately selected illiterate people to enter the palace, but no matter how simple a person is, he also knows that he is fundamentally powerful. The emperor is just the main family, and even the palace maids cannot be happy at will, and it is even more impossible to execute the chamberlain. If you offend Xiangye in your heart, it will be a short life. However, such thoughts can only be in the heart, and no one dares to say it. There is a head chopping machine standing on the bamboo gate, and several chamberlains have seen the head killing.
