Rushankou Port is located in the southernmost part of Rushankou Town, Rushan County, Weihai City, and has long become an important port for domestic maritime trade because of its geographical location and superior port conditions. In later generations, "there is Lushun Pass in the north, and there is Rushan Pass in the south". As early as the Tang Dynasty, there were ships from other cities. With the development of navigation technology, in the Song Dynasty, the maritime trade of Rushankou became increasingly prosperous, and merchant ships from Jiangsu and Zhejiang came here to exchange southern rice for local cocoon silk, grain and other local products. During the Southern Song Dynasty, the Song and Jin were divided into the Huai River, and the maritime trade between the south and the north was restricted, and Rushankou was also among them. In the Yuan Dynasty, the southern grain transportation to the north rose, and the maritime trade of Rushankou was revived. Southern merchant ships brought rice, bamboo, tea, timber and other goods here in exchange for local silk, soybeans, gold, etc. At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, a sea ban was implemented, but because the merchants engaged in private trade and made a lot of profits, the maritime trade in Rushankou never stopped.

Rushankou Port is not very far from Haiyang Qianhusuo, and Song Youliang, Xu Erduo, and Zhang Shishi rode horses to Rushankou in less than an hour. According to the memories of his previous life, Song Youliang can be sure that he must have come here to play, but Xu Erduo and Zhang Shi have never been to Rushankou Port. There is a straight stone road leading to the dock by the sea, and the shops on both sides of the stone road are next to each other, and the goods from the north and south are placed on the counters, and the merchants with different accents are haggling loudly and pointing at the goods. Xu Erduo and Zhang Shishi entered the Grand View Garden like Grandma Liu, and everything was fresh. Of course, Song Youliang, who has seen the bustling metropolis, will naturally not be attracted by this level of "prosperity", but is more just curious about the life in the ancient market

"Miss, you are everyone's best lady at first glance. This guqin is made of fine 50-year-old cedar wood~~ Two hundred taels of silver is worth the price~~~"

When Song Youliang was looking around, he heard such words around him, and couldn't help but turn his head to see the source of the sound. It was a large storefront, and the owner was selling a guqin to two girls. Although Song Youliang was some distance away from the guqin, Song Youliang clearly saw that there were only a dozen rings on the wood.

"It's a profiteer deceiving people again~~" Song Youliang looked at the look of the girl dressed as a young lady, and knew that she obviously liked this piano very much, but she felt that the price was high. Song Youliang couldn't help but stepped forward and said: "Girl, this piano is indeed made of fir wood, but this fir is a fir tree of seventeen or eighteen years at most, and it is not a fifty-year-old fir at all~~"

Song Youliang's accosting surprised the girl, and she turned her head to look at Song Youliang, Song Youliang's eyes couldn't help but light up, this woman was ten years old, and she was alive and well from the embryo of a classical beauty. The eyebrows and eyes and facial features, the yao nose and cherry lips, the bright eyes and bright teeth, the muscles are like clotted fat, and the fingers are like roots of jade garlic. The clothes worn on the body are paddy field clothes made of fine materials, with exquisite Suzhou embroidery, and the hairpin on the head is also very exquisite.

"Presumptuous, how can you talk to our young lady like this~~" The woman dressed as a maid next to the girl was only ten ** years old, wearing a blue red armor, and the maid saw that a disciple came up to talk, and immediately stopped between Song Youliang and the girl

"Little girl, how do you talk to my son-in-law~" Xu Erduo also said loudly unceremoniously

"Where did the wild man come from~~Chewing his tongue in the blue sky and daylight~" The shopkeeper saw that someone was stirring up the situation, and hurriedly wanted to drive Song Youliang away

Song Youliang was still admiring the classical beauty in front of him, the woman came back to her senses from the surprise just now, but she didn't shy away from Song Youliang's fiery gaze, and seemed to be used to it. However, seeing that there was no greed and obscenity in Song Youliang's eyes, he smiled and asked, "How does Childe know how many years this fir is the material?" ”

Song Youliang saluted, pointed to the annual rings on the qin, and said: "This is called annual rings, just like the wrinkles on a person's forehead, the older you get, the more wrinkles you have." There are only 17 rings on this wood ~~1234~~~ a total of 17, at best, it is only 17 years of cedar, where did it come from 50 years? As he spoke, Song Youliang turned his head with a smile and looked at the boss with an embarrassed expression

"Nonsense~~" The shopkeeper looked at Song Youliang, who was wearing a military jacket and bubble nail military boots, "You are a poor military household, a barbarian who doesn't know about the palace merchants, where do you know this?" Miss, don't listen to his nonsense, I'll sell you cheaper~"

The young lady smiled: "Groundless, it may not be without a cause, what this son said is the Tao, there must be some truth~"

The shopkeeper said disdainfully: "Poor soldier, what do you know?" It's just to see that Miss is beautiful, and I want to come up and talk~"

A poor soldier on the left, a poor soldier on the right, said that Song Youliang is so angry, "You profiteer, do you dare to bet with me, if you lose, I will give you a hundred taels, and if you win, you will give this qin to this young lady~~"

"Bet~~ Bet on what?" The shopkeeper was a little weak-hearted

"Just bet on how to look at the age of the tree~~" Song Youliang was full of confidence

"The shopkeeper of my dignified Shengfeng made a bet with you, a poor soldier, and lost my identity when it was passed out~" The shopkeeper said disdainfully

"Bet~ Why not?" As soon as the shopkeeper's voice fell, a middle-aged man suddenly interjected behind Song Youliang's back

Song Youliang turned his head to look, only to see a tall, delicate-looking middle-aged man standing behind him, he was wearing a blue and blue robe, a folding fan in his hand, and a three-legged toad jade pendant hanging from his waist

"The owner~~" The shopkeeper turned out to be just a guy, "The owner, this poor soldier is making trouble, insisting that our fifty-year-old fir guqin is a seventeen-year-old fake~~" The guy hurriedly said

"Little brother~~" The owner of the shop was half a head taller than Song Youliang, and looked at Song Youliang with a condescending look, "I am Shen Fuping, the proprietor of this shop." I am older than you and have never known you in my life, and I have no grievances, so I should not have bullied the small and dealt with you. It's just that my Shengfeng is a well-known warehouse in Rushankou, and you say that I sell fakes, which is a big thing that insults my reputation as Shengfeng. Today, no matter what, I have to deal with you to understand~~" Shen Fuping said: "Let's bet on the age of the tree, if you win, I will give you two hundred taels of silver." This qin bai is given to this young lady~~ If I win, you will work in my store for nothing~how~? ”

Zhang Shi hurriedly said: "How can my son-in-law work in your house for nothing? ”

When Shen Fuping saw them shouting Gongzi with their mouths open and closed, and seeing that the three of them were all dressed as military men, he couldn't help but crook his mouth contemptuously

The shopkeeper looked gloating, and said secretly in his heart: You are a troubled poor soldier, our Shen Ye is a well-known figure in Rushankou, and you still want to go around today if you can't finish eating?

Song Youliang saw his aggressive momentum, but he also had the heart to win, and was about to agree, but the young lady smiled: "This son, this husband, I think forget it~~ This matter is done by the little woman, it is better for the little woman to be a Lu Zhonglian~"

"That's not good~~ It's about the reputation of my Shengfeng~"

"I understand Miss's kindness, but now it's a matter between me and this Boss Shen~~"

Song Youliang and Shen Fuping refused to give in to each other, and the surroundings were surrounded by people watching the excitement, and neither of them refused to give in at this moment. In the stalemate, suddenly a group of people drank and neighed, and a team of samurai dressed in black pushed aside the crowd and came to Song Youliang and others, the first person was a tiger's back, and a scar on the face of the national character from the corner of the eye to the corner of the mouth was very terrifying, adding to the fierce atmosphere, the strong man bowed to the young lady, "Mark Liu Ziming, welcome the young lady back to the village~"

"Huizhai" Song Youliang and Shen Fuping were both surprised, "Could it be that this little girl is the daughter of a nearby cottage king?" ”

Liu Ziming raised his eyes and saw Song Youliang and Shen Fuping, and immediately stood up, holding the handle of the knife, and asked, "Miss, are these pickled untouchables bothering Miss?" As soon as Liu Ziming raised his hand, several men in black made a sound of drawing knives, and stepped forward to take someone

The young lady smiled: "Wait~~ Take this person away~~" The county lord stretched out his slender white finger and pointed at Song Youliang

"Me?" Song Youliang was stunned, "This young lady, I'm on your side~~" Song Youliang was just about to distinguish, more than a dozen steel knives were already on his chest, waist and neck, Xu Erduo and Zhang Shi were just about to draw their knives, and they were also surrounded by black-clothed warriors

The young lady smiled again: "Miss Ben is happy to take you, so I will take you~~~" said that she made a grimace, and then got into a carriage with the support of the maid. Poor Song Youliang was carried on a horse by several black-clothed warriors, and followed behind with his hands tied

"Return to the Inspection Division~~" Liu Ziming shouted loudly

Song Youliang hurriedly shouted: "I am ~~" He just wanted to shout that he was the son of a thousand households in Haiyang, but he thought to himself, wouldn't shouting like this disgrace the face of the Song family? Anyway, the other party is also a public person, and it is not too late to reveal his identity when he arrives at the inspection department

Seeing that the young master was kidnapped, Xu Erduo and Zhang Shi hurriedly went back to the Qianhu Institute to move the rescuers
