Chapter 535: Reborn

The time limit for the fleet to dock in Quanzhou for half a month has arrived, and a lot of goods have been sold, but there is still an endless stream of wealthy merchants who want to purchase strange goods.

The amount of transaction contracts signed by Shen Jin and Lu You in dozens of days is huge, and it is impossible to deliver all the goods sold in more than ten days, after all, it only takes a cup of tea to sign a contract and get the bill of lading, and the delivery is less than one or two hours, and more than half a day.

After discussion, it was decided that the fleet would be divided into two, Shen Jin would lead seventy ships full of goods to Mingzhou, and Lu You would temporarily stay in Quanzhou to finish, and then go to Mingzhou after the goods were delivered and the transaction was completed.

Yang Congyi had to stay in Quanzhou temporarily to deal with Tang Xun's funeral, and when he saw Tang Xun's family, he would return the relics before he could leave Quanzhou and return north to Mingzhou or Lin'an.

Seventy seagoing ships, guided by two warships, soon left Quanzhou Bay and headed north to Mingzhou along the coast, bringing strange goods from afar back to Jiangnan, the richest place in the Great Song Dynasty.

The remaining dozen or so ships of cargo remained in the port, presided over by Lu You, and continued to trade with merchants, and most of the empty ships that had been unloaded left the port and were concentrated in the Quanzhou shipyard.

Traveling thousands of miles, the sea water is soaked and bumped, the ship will inevitably be damaged, most of the ship repaired, as long as it does not go to the South Sea, it can still be used.

The more than 20 warships that stayed in Quanzhou were ready to return to Liuqiu.

It takes nearly a month for Jianpu to come and go to Quanzhou, Yang Congyi does not plan to wait for Tang Xun's family to arrive in Quanzhou all the time, before they come, he has to bring the Jingwu army back to ask for placement, after all, he is the supervisor of the army, and the position of the commander on behalf of the commander, it is also his duty to take some time to place the Jingwu army.

Therefore, after the first batch of 70 ships of the Huiyi fleet left Quanzhou, soon the second fleet also left Quanzhou Bay, and the huge Shenzhou was particularly eye-catching in the fleet.

Except for the Huiyi fleet, everyone thought that they were going to catch up with the fleet that left first, and went north to Mingzhou, Shaoxing, and Lin'an.

Two days later, warships and Shenzhou appeared on the coast of Liuqiu.

The elite army landed and returned to the training camp, and with them returned with the 2,000 escorts on the ships accompanying them, and from then on, their garrison was also in flux.

And Yang Congyi then left Shenzhou alone with several beautiful women gifted to him by the national teacher of Zhancheng, entered the county seat of Liuqiu, and placed them in a mansion.

"Siniang, you live here, a few of them will be your maids in the future, usually teach them, if there is anything for them to do for you, don't go back to Quanzhou in the near future."

Yang Congyi held the hands of a woman in her twenties and whispered.

"Well, I know. Don't entangle with them after you return to Quanzhou, I have already made arrangements before, and I believe that it will not be long before they will forget me. Tang Xun nodded, looking at the person opposite, his eyes full of tenderness.

"Okay, I'll go first, the Jingwu Army and the Escort Army will have to make some arrangements. When the return is over, I will come to see you and take care of yourself. ”

"Okay, you also take care of yourself, often run around, pay attention to safety, I'll wait for you to come back."

The two quickly separated, Yang Congyi left, and Tang Xun stayed in this small world.

Looking at the four weak women who couldn't understand words, Tang Xun's feelings became complicated.

There is no doubt that this world belongs to her alone, from today on, Tang Xun is dead, Tang Siniang is reborn, this is the freedom she couldn't ask for before, but after she really got free, she felt lonely.

The past of more than 20 years has fallen into the water with Tang Xun, and it has become a thing of the past, and the first half of Tang Siniang's life is blank, and the new life can only start today

From now on, when it comes to the past, in this world, I am afraid that the only people who are related to her are Yang Congyi and Liuniang.

Sitting silently alone, she actually shed tears, I don't know whether it is sad or happy, I'm afraid she can't tell herself.

Yang Congyi stayed in the Liuqiu camp for three days, integrated the 2,000 guards into the Jingwu army, and then began to expand the camp.

In addition, the Jingwu army also has a task, that is, to open up wasteland to the south, reclaim farmland, and open up horse farms.

The Jingwu army is now 5,000 people, and when the return is over, there are still two or three thousand escort troops going south, and they will also come to Liuqiu, so many people want to eat, and it is impossible for grain to be requisitioned all the time, and Liuqiu has fertile land, as long as the fertile land is reclaimed, the grain can be completely self-sufficient.

In addition, the 500 horses purchased by the fleet from the Seljuks were very adaptable, and the losses at sea were not large, and now there were nearly 400 horses, and if the horse farms were opened up and properly managed, they could breed a large number of good horses in the vast streams, so as to make up for the lack of horses in the south.

After taking Su Zhong, Luo Cong and others to personally demarcate the area of cultivated farmland and horse farms, Yang Congyi soon left Liuqiu and returned to Quanzhou.

On the third day after he returned to Quanzhou, the Tang family came.

It was not someone else, but Tang Xun's father, whose face was very dark and gloomy, and he looked much older than the year before.

The relationship between the two was very good before, Yang Congyi wanted to build a port in Xinghua, and Tang's father immediately took out a large amount of money to support it, although the port did not help his business much, but he didn't mind too much, but felt that he should support it.

Now that the two have met, they don't know where to start.

"Uncle, I'm really sorry, my little nephew didn't take a good look at Brother Tang, I can't escape the blame!"

Yang Congyi broke the silence and took the initiative to take the blame on himself, whether he could make him feel better, he was not sure.

"He's almost thirty years old, how could he be so careless?"

Father Tang had tears in his eyes, he finally cultivated Tang Xun, and he also expected him to glorify his ancestors and continue to bring glory to the Tang family, who knew that he would never return, let alone glory, and even his life would be gone.

"The sea is very risky, and the last time the fleet went to sea, thousands of people died at sea. This time the fleet returned to Guangzhou smoothly, and he also led the team to Guangzhou to trade a batch of goods, thinking that it would be safe and sound, but he did not expect this misfortune to happen to the fleet on the way back to Quanzhou. ”

"What happened that night?"

Father Tang stared at Yang Congyi, his eyes were full of doubts and sadness, as if he wanted to dig out some secrets from him.

Yang Congyi sighed: "The weather was not very good that night, it was cloudy, and the cabin was a little dull, Brother Tang asked me to go to the deck to blow the wind and breathe, and later I called the dancers and singers accompanying the fleet to the deck, sang and danced, and passed the time." Later, Brother Tang was a little tired of listening to the music, so he got up and went to the side alone to clean up, there were not many lanterns hanging on the deck, it was a little dim, and I didn't pay attention to what he was doing. Later, when the song and dance were over, it was about to rain, and I asked him to go back to the cabin, but I didn't hear a response, and I searched the deck and cabin, but I didn't see him. Later, a few guards found a hairpin on the side of the ship, which was Brother Tang's belongings, and from that distance, he was likely to fall into the water, but unfortunately it was very dark at sea and he couldn't see anything. I immediately ordered the accompanying warship to come and search and rescue, and after several days of searching, I found only one piece of clothing, which he had worn that day, and came back and searched for many days in that sea, but no other relics were found. ”

After speaking, he handed over all the personal belongings left by Tang Xun on the ship, the hairpin, and the clothes to Father Tang, and asked him to take them back to his hometown, so that he could have a thought.

After listening to Yang Congyi's narration, Father Tang didn't ask anything more, nor did he criticize too much, but the relationship between the two was probably difficult to go back to.

Twice supervised the return to Yi, Tang's father helped Hui Yi a lot, and this time he took his child again, no matter who it was, he would not feel good.

Father Tang did not accept Yang Congyi's retention, nor did he accept his reparation, so he left Quanzhou with Tang Xun's relics on the same day, asking him to return to Jianpu for burial and return to the ancestral grave.

Originally, looking at Father Tang, who was much older, Yang Congyi couldn't bear it, but when he thought of Siniang's suffering as a man over the years, he could only forcibly suppress it, she had already paid a lot for the Tang family, and she should be free and live the life she wanted.

The Huiyi fleet left in Quanzhou has not much goods, and it is estimated that it will be sold out in two days, and then Shenzhou will have to set off and take Lu You and others to Mingzhou.

The transaction in Quanzhou, Lu You also did a good job alone, basically did not need Yang Congyi to worry, he randomly checked a few transactions, and there was no problem.

Lu You is an honest and ethical scholar in his bones, from a scholarly family, not to mention that he is also a famous patriotic literati in history.

The result was satisfactory, and Lu You lived up to Yang Congyi's trust in him.

The fleet left immediately, and I don't know how long it would be before returning to Quanzhou, and he couldn't do this kind of thing if he didn't go home before leaving, even if he had some contradictions and misunderstandings with his family.

"Master, you're back! I haven't seen you for the past few days, and I've made us anxious! ”

Lian'er, who opened the courtyard door, looked surprised, and her eyes were full of longing.

"This is my home, and with you here, where else can I go. I'm hungry, do I have anything to eat? ”

Yang Congyi calmly returned to the courtyard, as if he was fine, calm and not half tempered.

"Master, you rest for a while, and I'll do it."

Lian'er closed the courtyard door and went directly to the kitchen, the master was not at home all the year round, and she felt very relieved and happy to be able to cook a meal for the master herself.

"Siyuan, see what good things Dad brought you?"

As soon as he saw the child, Yang Congyi immediately showed a smile and took out a string of agate beads from his arms.

Unexpectedly, the kid glanced at him, but ran towards Gu Qingchen instead, without the slightest intention of picking up his things.

"You give such a valuable thing to a two-year-old?"

Gu Qingchen pulled the child, very unhappy.

"Then ask Madame to help Siyuan take it."

As he spoke, Yang Congyi took a few steps forward and handed the agate beads to her with a smile.

"A string of beads wants to buy me?"

Gu Qingchen said this, and as soon as he raised his hand, he held the agate bead string in his hand.

Yang Congyi smiled awkwardly, did not answer, and looked down at the child standing on the side.
