"If the owner comes a few days earlier, you can also see the Dragon Boat Race, and those days are very lively."

Seeing Shi Mo Guangyan, Zheng shopkeeper showed a reassuring smile on his face, Shi Mo's family has been in business for a long time in Dajin and Da Song, but there is no one who is as loyal as him. He carefully looked at Shi Ma Hirohiko, and found that the owner was stronger than during the New Year, obviously, although he had suffered some hardships in the past few months, he was still living well.

"I just went to the Royal Street, and I came to you." Shi Mo Guangyan was not polite to him, and treated the shopkeeper Zheng as if he were a family member: "In the future, Lin'an will be even more prosperous." ”

Shopkeeper Zheng dusted off his body for him: "That's not the case, it's just that in the past few days, we have opened six new shops in Renfang here, and several more workshops have been opened in Wulin Fang (Note 1) in the north. ”

"How's the shop doing?" Shi Ma Guangyan asked casually, he didn't really care about the business of his northern goods store.

"The business has been better in the past six months, although the meeting is becoming more and more worthless, but our shop collects mostly copper coins." The shopkeeper Zheng took out the account book and was about to check it for Shi Mo Guangyan, but was pushed away by Shi Mo Guangyan.

"I can't trust you!" Shi Mo Guangyan said with a smile: "Count the time, tomorrow at this time, there will be two of us ships to Lin'an, you are ready to prepare, find a few big houses, place the children on the boat, let them stay here for the night, and the day after tomorrow we will hire a car to send them to Shaoxing!" ”

Shopkeeper Zheng was overjoyed when he heard this: "In this way, I have somewhat repaid the favor of the Zhao family!" ”

"How to pay it back!" Shi Mo Guangyan sighed: "If it weren't for Yuzhang Villa, I'm afraid that now I would still be guarding this small shop and worrying about three meals a day!" ”

What he said was not false, if it weren't for Zhao Heju giving him Wanguan, even if he turned over, he wouldn't have been able to do it so quickly. He is a very far-sighted person, the more he is like this, the more he feels that Zhao Heju's actions that day are amazing, he is an adult, and he is already a great high-roller, not to mention an eight-year-old child!

"The little master of Yuzhang Villa is definitely not a thing in the pool." Thinking of the confession of Yuzhang Villa that day, Shi Mo Guangyan stopped talking.

With Shi Mo Guangyan's instructions, Zheng shopkeeper was busy looking for a house and a car, he had lived in Lin'an for a long time, and he was familiar with these things, but it didn't take too much time. The next day, he went to the Yanqiao River wharf, and at noon, he brought back a group of children.

These children were all found by Shima Guangyan from Lianghe Liangjing Road, and seeing their trembling appearances, Shopkeeper Zheng couldn't help but feel a little unbearable. What do you want these many servants to do, more than thirty in Chinese New Year's Eve, and seventy or eighty this year, could it be that they are being resold to others?

"Hugh is noisy, this is the Great Song Dynasty, don't break in at will!" As for why Yuzhang Villa wanted to buy so many children, Shi Mo Guangyan was also confused, but it was not impossible to think that Zhao and Ju could throw a million dollars and get some children to raise and play. His family was originally a Khitan nobleman, although it has been sinicized for a long time, but it always retains some northern alien relics, and there is little kindness, so these children are a little harsh. But I still remember Zhao Youju's entrustment, I didn't abuse me all the way, Rao is like this, nearly 100 children who got on the boat from Jiaoxi, there are also more than 20 corpses sunk in the sea, and they can't reach Jiangnan alive.

Therefore the children were in awe and awe of him, and when they heard him reprimand, they immediately fell silent.

"Owner, these many children have to spend a lot of copper coins, right?" Shopkeeper Zheng asked.

"I didn't spend a penny, I picked it up for nothing. Don't you know that the land of two rivers and two capitals is now full of wolf smoke, and it is really a great blessing for these children, or their parents died in the war, or their families were separated in the war, and they were picked up. Hearing the shopkeeper Zheng ask, a trace of fierceness flashed between Shi Mo Guangyan's eyebrows: "Dajin has a faint monarch and a minister, but it has caused these ordinary people to suffer!" ”

"The Hu people are so tyrannical?" The shopkeeper Zheng was dumbfounded, and when Shi Mo Guangyan came last time, he also said that the Hu people were still in a stalemate with Dajin in the Zhongdu area, but in just a few months, the war had burned to the banks of the Yellow River!

Shima Hirohiko shook his head, his heart hardened after the upheaval in his family. Therefore, he sneered: "I don't think it's that Hu Ren is powerful, it's that Dajin is too incompetent." However, it is also a good thing that the Hu people hit the Yellow River, otherwise it would be difficult for me to take advantage of the opportunity. ”

Since Shi Mo Guangyan came back, the shopkeeper Zheng wanted to ask him if the trip went well, but he was afraid of touching his sadness, so he never mentioned it. ”

"It's very smooth, far beyond my expectations." Shima Hirohiko smiled.

He didn't say anything, originally he wanted to take advantage of the time when the Mongolian people went south, go to one or two horse farms in Jinguo, buy off the officers who supervised him, and bring one or two hundred war horses to the south. However, the situation in the Jin country collapsed, and almost the whole country was like a headless fly, and the people were in a panic, and many officials in the Jin country horse farm abandoned their posts and fled. When he found out about this, he ventured a boat up the Yellow River to the east of the Dajin River. Because of the defense of the Hu people and Daxia, Dajin has several horse farms here, two of which have been broken by the Mongols, Shi Mo Guangyan came at the right time, bought off a horse farm master who wanted to abandon his post and escape, drove more than 600 good horses out of this horse farm, and found a boat to go south along the Han River into Jinghu Lake. At this time, Da Song is a horse, and it can be sold for 200 yuan, not to mention a good horse that can be used as a combat horse! Most of these batches were sold to the court of the Great Song Dynasty, although it was inevitable to give away money when they were handled, but Shi Mo Guangyan still bluffed people under the guise of a big gold horse dealer, and the big head was still his own own. In just this trip, he made a profit of 150,000 yuan, and the 10,000 yuan given to him by Zhao Heju increased fifteen times! (Note 2)

He was a man of heart, and when he sold horses, he sent people to collect children from all walks of life in Dajin, and after selling horses, he hurried to Jiaoxi, where he received these children who were sent, and then went south by sea.

This experience is very easy to say, but it is dangerous and unimaginable to ordinary people. Not to mention that he was almost captured by the Jin soldiers when he was exploring the horse farm, not to mention that when he rushed to the horse farm, he met the Mongolian rangers, that is, he drove the more than 600 good horses south, and there were no less than five or six mountain bandits along the way.

"Alas!"

When Shima Hirohiko was recalling his hardships all the way, a child suddenly fell in front of him, he looked at him coldly, and instead of helping him, he shouted: "Get up, get up quickly!" ”

Note 1: The government-run handicraft workshops in Lin'an in the Southern Song Dynasty were concentrated in the area of Wulinfang and Zhaoxianfang, while the private enterprises were all over the city.

Note 2: This is the novelist's words, and although the profits of horse trading were extremely lucrative at that time, it was not so simple.
