"It's easy to do things with money, and it's easy to say what you can buy with silver." Zhong Chenglin said magnificently.

Qiao Yixi looked at him with a strange expression, "Did you already know?" ”

Zhong Chenglin smiled and said nothing.

Qiao Lixi no longer dwelled on this matter, but asked: "Then our business will be handed over to you, and it is up to you whether you can become an imperial merchant or not." ”

Zhong Chenglin nodded, "On the Qiao family's side, how do you deal with it?" ”

"Have fun," Qiao Yixi said disapprerovingly, "Qiao Laosi wants to become an imperial merchant so much, how embarrassed it is not for him to get what he wants." ”

"It's okay, seeing a little bit of it slip away in your hand, that's the most cruel."

Two and a half children, sitting under the plane tree, holding the tea in front of the Ming Dynasty, talked lightly about human life.

"By the way, Ming'er Qingming, the old witch is going to toss again, right?" Zhong Chenglin asked.

"Ming'er wants to go back to the clan to worship her ancestors, Qiao Linzi's side, she will also go by the way, after all, she is buried in the ancestral grave, the temple, it is estimated that there is no need to go."

"The old witch is really willing to do it for Qiao Linzi." Zhong Chenglin pouted.

After a pause, as if remembering something important, Zhong Chenglin said casually: "This time it's all up to Jinzhen to be well-informed, otherwise, we will miss this opportunity." ”

Qiao Yixi nodded "mmmmmm

Zhong Chenglin said again: "Qiaoqiao, you say, how can we thank Jinzhen?" ”

"Thank him for what?" Qiao Yixi asked strangely.

Zhong Chenglin silently lit wax for Gu Jinzhen, and said step by step: "Without him, we would not have to lose money when we bought so much tea?" ”

Hehe!

Qiao Yixi squinted at Zhong Chenglin.

Is it true that she is a child and doesn't understand anything?

If Gu Jinzhen hadn't arranged it, they wouldn't have let Zhong Chenglin buy so much tea at a high price, although they had plans to disrupt the tea market in southern Sichuan, they wouldn't be so quick and so resolute.

Doing business is the same as fighting a war, who doesn't think about it, ponder and ponder before making a decision?

Zhong Chenglin touched his nose, "If we can do business with the Ministry of Internal Affairs, it will be Jinzhen's credit." Qiaoqiao, you say, when Jinzhen comes back, shall we invite him to a meal? ”

"Okay."

Is it just a meal?

Sure enough, Zhong Chenglin said again: "Actually, Jin Zhen is also very bitter at the border alone, the stall in the Dingguo Marquis's Mansion, you also know, he followed the Marquis of Zhenyuan when he was six years old, he didn't have a mother's pain, he didn't have a father's love, he was a soldier, and he could still receive a letter from his family, he didn't have anything." ”

"So what?" Qiao Lixi asked very kindly.

Zhong Chenglin leaned in front of her awkwardly, "Look, that kid's best friends are the two of us, or shall we write to him?" ”

"Write a letter?" Qiao Lixi looked at Zhong Chenglin amusedly.

This guy is really fighting.

It's just, what the hell is writing a letter to Gu Jinzhen?

She didn't think that her relationship with Gu Jinzhen was good enough to exchange letters.

Decisive refusal.

Zhong Chenglin suddenly cried with a sad face, "Qiaoqiao, it's just a letter, it's nothing." ”

"Since it's nothing, then you write."

"I'm definitely going to write, let's do it together."

Qiao Lixi looked at him vigilantly, "What do you want to do?" ”

"It's to find someone to write to Jinzhen with me, so that he won't be alone." Zhong Chenglin said pitifully.

Qiao Yixi looked at Zhong Chenglin carefully, "Say it." ”

Say what?

Nature is the purpose.

Zhong Chenglin bit his cheek.

Madan!

Who said this girl is easy to deceive!

He almost betrayed his hue!

But if people don't want to, they don't want to!

Thinking of the consequences of not completing the task, Zhong Chenglin let it go, "Jinzhen doesn't have any friends, so he is familiar with the two of us, and besides, I will cooperate with you on behalf of him to do business, so I thought, otherwise, we will also write a letter to him, so that he will not be alone at the border." ”

Qiao Lixi didn't believe Zhong Chenglin's words, but Zhong Chenglin said that she was not really unsophisticated, she was just writing a letter.

"Okay."

"And ...... What? What did you say? ”

Qiao Yixi rolled her eyes.

……

Southern Xinjiang, station.

The climate in southern Xinjiang is humid, the land is vast and there are few people, and there are many dense forests, so there are miasma all year round.

And the boundary between the dynasty and the barbarians is bounded by this continuous dense forest, the dense forest is the imperial dynasty, and the dense forest is the barbarians.

It's just that this boundary is not absolute, and there are people on both sides who are ready to test the boundary line, and no one dares to cross the boundary easily.

The barbarians were afraid of the Shen family army of the Marquis of Zhenyuan, while the imperial dynasty was afraid of the poison and Gu of the barbarians.

The station is outside the dense forest, stationed along the vegetation, and the range is extremely wide and scattered, so this is an extreme test of individual ability and team combat ability.

Gu Jinzhen sat in the boss's tent and looked at the sand table in front of him with a solemn expression.

The Shen family army has been stationed here for more than 30 years, and it can be said that the boundary of this land has basically been figured out, and this sand table is the landform of this dense forest, except for ......

Look down, look south.

This is a barbarian military stronghold, and like his station, it is the place where each other wants to explore the most.

For so many years, in addition to the stationing places of both sides, the entire dense forest, both sides have figured it out.

The two sides are at an impasse.

Although this is also a kind of checks and balances, this kind of checks and balances are not stable, and whoever is well-informed will have the upper hand.

Gu Jinzhen sat back on the bookcase irritably, looking at the two stacks of letters on the table, the most of them were the soldiers' family letters, and the few were from the capital.

"Someone."

"Master." Tang Yuan, dressed in a military uniform, appeared at the door of the tent.

"Send it all down." Gu Jinzhen pointed to the letter on the left hand and said.

In order to prevent the leakage of military information, every letter must be opened and checked, whether it is sent or received, only after the inspection has no problems, it will be sent. Although there is a suspicion of peeping into privacy, it can be treated very well in extraordinary times. However, the specific operation is also very fast, because many of the men who are conscripted into the army do not have one, let alone literacy, so there is a fixed day in the army every month, which is written by the military advisor and others, and the men dictate and write a letter back home.

In addition to letters, there are also things that are sent, and Gu Jinzhen does not restrict the freedom of these people, provided that the war cannot be delayed.

Tang Yuan went out with his things in his arms, and after a while, he came back in a hurry, "Master! Father! ”

"Good grandson." Gu Jinzhen spoke quietly.

Tang Yuan was stunned for a moment, and the previous appearance of being a monkey was anxious, and he suddenly calmed down for three points.

"Say." Gu Jinzhen was impatient.

The thing that can make the glutinous rice balls so out of shape should be a big deal.

But now, Tang Yuan is not in a hurry, "Master, those letters, the subordinates are asking people to check, this time there are not many letters, there are five thousand people in the camp, there are only ten or so letters, and there are a few packages, all of them have been checked, no problem." ”

Gu Jinzhen nodded.

The rice balls stood still.

Gu Jinzhen looked at him with a smile, "Talk about business." ”

"Master, my subordinates just want to ask, how to deal with the letter in question?"

Gu Jinzhen frowned.

The army of the Marquis of Zhenyuan has been stationed here for decades, the soldiers have changed one after another, and there have been tens of thousands of correspondence and parcels in the barracks, and there have been no mistakes.

"Take it and I'll take care of it myself." He wanted to see which one was not afraid of death and dared to spy on the military!

Tang Yuan excitedly held the problematic letter in both hands, put it on the bookcase, and quickly withdrew without waiting for Gu Jinzhen's arrangement.

After taking a deep look at his overly excited subordinates, Gu Jinzhen turned his gaze to the bookcase.

The body is stiff!

Although he tried his best to hold back, it was not difficult to see the trembling brought by excitement in the awkward posture of his body.

Tentatively, he cautiously reached out and picked up the letter on the table.

The names of the two people above are very eye-catching.

One is his, and the other is Qiao Yixi's.

Jojo wrote to him!

Gu Jinzhen grinned at the corners of her mouth, pressed the envelope to her chest and took several deep breaths, forcing herself to stabilize her emotions.

Although he knew that there were personal soldiers guarding outside the tent and no one would trespass, Gu Jinzhen still commanded with a straight face, lifted his robe, and sat down steadily.

Call!

Exhaling a heavy breath of turbidity, Gu Jinzhen carefully tore open the envelope.

After reading it at a glance and ten lines, I suppressed the excitement in my heart and carefully re-read it again, and I felt that it was not enjoyable, so I read it twice at a turtle speed of ten times in one line, and then gently put down the letter. The smile on the corner of his mouth was still there, and he thought with some regret in his heart: If only Jojo could write a few more pages.

Unable to suppress the excitement in his heart, Gu Jinzhen immediately picked up the pen and wrote a reply, but the letters in the army were not so frequent, and it would take a long time for this letter to be sent.

Therefore, when the excitement in his heart was squandered with the emotions between the lines, Gu Jinzhen's emotions also stabilized, and he carefully put the letter into the dark grid.

There is still some time before the unified letter is sent, he can add it at any time, and by the way, see if there are any good things to send to Qiaoqiao.

Therefore, when Qiao Yixi received Gu Jinzhen's diary-style reply, her face was ignorant.

Zhong Chenglin reacted quickly, and quickly helped the dead party find a reasonable explanation, "Jinzhen, this kid is still a little conscientious, knowing that we are interested in southern Xinjiang, and he described it in great detail, and when we have the opportunity, we don't even need to invite a guide." ”

"Really?" Qiao Lixi asked suspiciously.

Zhong Chenglin gritted his teeth and let go, "Isn't it?" We do business, all over the world, we should go everywhere, go to see, maybe we have found a business opportunity? ”

That's right.

Because of the traffic restrictions and the influence of the geographical environment, this flood of things that no one cares about, maybe it goes to other places, it is a treasure that everyone is looking for, and the merchants?

Qiao Lixi thought of a very popular advertising slogan in her previous life - nature's porter.

"Qiaoqiao, don't look at Jinzhen's long-winded writing, like bookkeeping, report what you do and what you eat every day, in fact, it is also a reference for us. What if we pass and don't adapt to the soil? So, this is also a reference for us. For the sake of his friends, Zhong Chenglin also fought hard.
