426. Decision to Withdraw from the Church

Soon, Yao Fangyu gave all her dowry silver to Feng Mo'er. Nangong Jin, on the other hand, gave her a list of Jing Shang Tang, not only with their names, but also with the addresses of each business. By the way, he pulled out more than 20 people from Cheng Zhaofeng and gave them to Feng Mo'er, who was both a bodyguard and a thug. As for the rest, no matter what Feng Mo'er did, Nangong Jin chose to believe it.

However, Feng Mo'er did not live up to Nangong Jin's trust. After thinking about it carefully for a few days, she gave Nangong Jin a detailed operation method. Like Quanyin, it is the form of a casino and a green building, and even the name is similar to Quanyin, called 'Jingyin'. Nangong Jin just added a piece of content, no matter what method is used, Jing Yin will account for 10% of the shares of every business under Jing Shangtang.

Everything in the Moon Harbor has to be done again, but fortunately, there is a foundation, and the actual loss of Xiang Ji in the Moon Port is not too big, a total of two small ships, and some goods that have not been shipped out of the Moon Port but have been carried.

Wu Xin checked it carefully, and planned to rebuild the Yuegang Xiang score. Nangong Jin disagreed, the reason was very simple, waiting for the news of Zeng's demise.

However, although Wu Xin stayed in Quanzhou, he was not idle. Nangong Jin gave a copy of the method of purifying low-alcohol wine that he took from Du Ling. With this method, Wu Xin built a winery in Quanzhou, specializing in purifying wine transported from Nanyang.

Nangong Jin sent the first batch of purified Xiangji pure wine to the north through his own freight, and gave it to the defenders of the Acropolis. Of course, there are a lot of people who have given Tianchengwei, and the good name is 'happy wine'. Nangong Jin's real idea is not to give it to everyone to drink for nothing, but to let the defenders at the border see the hope of making money through this batch of free wine, and they can sell this wine. Because, he clearly knew how good those Tatars could drink, and one bowl of pure wine in Xiangji could cover at least five bowls of them.

Gao Changjing, who was in Tianchengwei, also received an order to turn his foot shop into a restaurant, and eating in this restaurant was just an embellishment, ** using Xiangji pure wine to exchange all the drinks that could be found, as well as pure Xiangji pure wine. At the same time, such restaurants were also opened in Quanzhou and Huguang, which made the wine transported from Nanyang not enough to sell for a while.

It's just that in the past few months, although Zeng Yiyi was beaten and fled in all directions, he did not die, and Yuegang still seems to be under the threat of pirates. Nangong Jin was simply not polite, and in the name of sending wine, he asked everywhere for escort. Unexpectedly, let the sailors see the financial route, and they proposed to escort the ship as long as they gave the silver, and half of the ship was paid. Nangong Jin smiled bitterly and obediently handed over the silver.

Fortunately, it didn't take long to receive the news that Zeng Yiyi was finally killed in a suicide attack, and Yu Dayou won a big victory again. But the escort of the merchant ships in Yuegang did not end because of this victory.

Nangong Jin was busy with his own money-making plan, and he really didn't expect that the military parade that kept the entire cabinet busy until it was dark would also come to the door. Looking at Ling Zheng, who had not seen him for a few months and had been transferred to the staff department of the Ministry of War, especially when he heard his request, Nangong Jin couldn't answer for a while.

Ling Zheng's requests all revolved around the landing of the Northern Army, and the purpose was to inform Nangong Jin that the Ministry of War had decided to let the Northern Army of the Army participate in this military parade. An official letter, clearly written.

First of all, in order to look good in the parade, the entire army of the Army was replaced with the latest equipment. The Lubei Army is still under the command of the Nangong clan, so this military expenditure is paid by the Nangong clan. Nangong Jin calculated in his heart that according to the number of people who took refuge in Tianchengwei for the first time, there were only a few hundred people, and they should be able to afford it.

Second, the Lu Beijun appeared in order to practice the formation to the saint. And there are only two armies that practice the formation, the Lu Beijun Army and Qi Jiguang's Qi Family Army, so there must be no mistake in asking Nangong Jin to personally drill it.

Third, at the time of the official military parade, the Lubei Army broke away from the Nangong clan and changed from a recruit to a regular army.

The first two points are forgotten, but the last point is definitely not up to you. But after all, Ling Zheng represented the imperial court, and Nangong Jin had no choice but to take him back to Pingyang.

One stone stirs up a thousand waves.

In the Nangong Mansion of Pingyang, there has been a discussion on whether to hand over the four halls in the north for five days. The people involved, in addition to the father and son of the Nangong family, there were also several clan elders, as well as the heads of the various houses of the family, and even the four hall masters.

In the entire chamber, more than 20 people were divided into three opinions. The first disagreed, and even felt that this proposal was simply ridiculous, because the Nangong clan never withdrew from the court; The second felt that there seemed to be conditions for negotiating with the imperial court, from money and silver to taxes and fees, listing the benefits to be obtained; And the third kind actually thought of reorganizing the old, weak, sick and disabled into four halls and handing them over to the imperial court.

In the past few days, Nangong Jin has been sitting at the last seat without saying a word, her eyes staring at her toes, wandering out of the world. In addition to occasionally answering the questions of the people present, the hall master of the four halls also looked at Nangong Jin from time to time, as if waiting for him to make a statement.

For five days, Nangong Dingkang finally couldn't stand the scene of 'the public says the public is reasonable, and the mother-in-law says the mother-in-law is reasonable', regardless of the people who are still discussing fiercely, they looked at Nangong Jin and said, "Ah Jin, what do you think?" ”

Nangong Jin seemed to be startled, as if she didn't expect to ask his opinion. More than 20 people present looked at him in unison, with different eyes. Everyone seems to have thought that this should be the initiator of this incident.

Nangong Jin smiled and said, "For the saints, the whole world is not the king's land, and we are all called the people. Monarchs, fathers and sons, not to mention that we are not even ministers, grass people. I don't have any ideas. ”

The scene was eerily quiet, and even the whispered chatter stopped talking. Nangong Jin's meaning is very clear, except for obedience, the Nangong clan has no room for bargaining at all. Only the eyes of the four hall masters flashed with joy, and for them, there was the possibility of breaking away from the Nangong clan, making military achievements, and taking a career path, which was another life. However, they also knew that Nangong Dingkang would not let them go.

Nangong Dingchang in the second room slapped the table, stared at Nangong Jin and said, "It's all about you who brought it back!" I've seen a few Tartars and thought I was sorry, and I was also in charge of the military, hum, Pingyang wants you to take care of it?! also gave a reward, is it someone who has found out, and it shouldn't be given to you at all! I don't think you're capable of that. ”

Nangong Jin's face was expressionless, and Nangong Dingchang finished speaking.

Nangong Pu was unhappy in his heart, and without waiting for Nangong Jin to speak, he looked at Nangong Dingchang and said, "Uncle Chang, what Ah Jin said is right. There is no reason for us to discuss this matter. What's more, now the imperial court has designated Ah Jin to train his troops. ”

Seeing that Nangong Pu was so faceless, Nangong Dingchang was even more angry in his heart, and said angrily to the sky: "Since there is no discussion, what are you asking us to do?!" Five days, when we are empty? ”

"The withdrawal of the church requires the consent of the clan." Nangong Dingkang didn't look at this clan brother, and said calmly: "If everyone agrees, then these four halls will be withdrawn." However, from now until the day before the parade, it is still set up for the four halls of the Nangong clan, and the halls will be withdrawn after the parade and all handed over to Tianchengwei. ”

Nangong Dingkang called everyone in the clan to be present, and his original intention was only to explain the matter, and spending these five days was just to let everyone accept this order.

Nangong Dingchang stretched his face, not daring to contradict Nangong Dingkang, but stared at Nangong Jin and snorted coldly, "Everyone, there is something at home, go first." He stood up and strode away.

I only heard Nangong Dingkang say behind him: "I will let someone send you the decision to withdraw from the hall in one moment, and the second room only needs to sign it." ”

With Nangong Dingkang's decision, the clan elders only spent a stick of incense to prepare the resolution, and everyone seemed to have forgotten all the discussions in the past five days, and obediently signed according to Nangong Dingkang's intentions.

Nangong Jin didn't know Nangong Dingkang's thoughts, but he was confused by this scene. It's so simple, why take five days.

Nangong Dingkang continued to ask Nangong Jin in front of everyone: "Ah Jin, what else does the imperial court want?" ”

All the requirements were made clear and clear from the beginning. Nangong Dingkang seemed to deliberately let him say another word to promote everyone's memory.

Nangong Jin cleared his throat, "What the Lubei Army wants to show is a formation, and this must be practiced skillfully before the parade." Also, we have to pay for the replacement of equipment. In addition, for the consideration of the Lubei Army, the training was carried out in Tianchengwei, and then it was necessary to rush to the capital early to familiarize themselves with the venue. Also, I can't do these things alone. Nangong Jin said and looked at Nangong Dingkang, "What they mean is that the head of the family needs to preside over this matter." However, this point is not written in the official document, probably because I don't want us to have an excuse and a way out. ”

In fact, the last one, when Nangong Dingkang first heard it, he had doubts. The need for the head of the house to preside over is secondary, the key is to take the head of the house hostage. However, Nangong Dingkang didn't intend to explain, looked at everyone and said: "This is the case, everyone knows about it." Next, I will go to Tianchengwei with Ah Jin and the four hall masters, and Pingyang will be temporarily handled by Ah Pu to handle daily affairs. Tianchengwei is not too far away, and he can discuss things in time. If you have any other questions, it's up to you. ”

Everyone here looked at each other, the military parade is next year's thing, there is almost half a year, Nangong Dingkang is going to live in Tianchengwei for a long time in this half year? Isn't Nangong Pu the de facto patriarch?

Everyone looked at Nangong Pu, there seemed to be no expression on his face, but the corners of his eyes were relaxed. Yes, this matter was decided before everyone came over. Although I don't know why Nangong Dingkang supports Nangong Jin so much, it is not a bad thing for Nangong Pu. However, no matter how happy it is, it will not be shown on the face.

This was the first gathering of ladies in the city after the Pingyang War, and Shen Xueying held a banquet in Hongshenglong. Interestingly, after the war, the original Hongshenglong was doubled in size, and after taking down the destroyed houses around it, a garden was built.

There are three private rooms faintly under the small bridge and flowing water, rockery flowers and trees, although the space is not large, but it is very quiet. The banquet of the ladies in Binh Duong City was here, but less than half of them were present. The ladies gathered together, more reminiscing about the past. Such a party is not very interesting except for sadness. It was only half an hour younger, and Shen Xueying lost interest.

However, the people Shen Xueying really asked for were not these ladies.
