Chapter 272: The Second Trip to Hangzhou

After Su Guanxue told Jiang Feng that she could find a way to deal with the problem of money, both parties seemed to have forgotten about this matter. In this year, Jiang Feng entered the capital city of Dengzhou for the first time, and the external propaganda was that the training of recruits had been completed, and now the scourge of the Japanese had been eliminated.

After this reason was said, the officials around him had to flatter and say that Master Jiang had worked hard and worked hard to benefit one party. The truth of the matter is just that Jiang Feng feels that he can breathe a sigh of relief now, there is no need to continue to fight on the mountain, the necessary precautions are of course necessary, and the guards at the city gates around are all taken over by the soldiers of the Dengzhou battalion to ensure that the city gates will not be used as obstacles in an emergency.

Life will always go on, Liu Fangrui and the Su family sisters, who have been depressed on the mountain for a long time, feel very happy that they can come to the Dengzhou capital city under the mountain, I didn't expect that there would be more happy things, and the day after the whole family settled down in Dengzhou, Jiang Feng went over and said to the female dependents:

"I have been on the mountain for more than a year, presumably you are already stuffy, and our father-in-law in Hangzhou has not visited us for a long time, and I will set off tomorrow to lead you out to enjoy the mountains and rivers."

When several female dependents heard this, they were really surprised, the last time they went down to Jiangnan, although Jiang Feng was on the sea and land, there were swords and swords, and flesh and blood were flying. But a few girls are still very comfortable, the young lady of Zhejiang's political envoy, this is also a first-class identity in Zhejiang, the eunuchs and nobles in the city are going to come to greet them, not to mention the land of Suzhou and Hangzhou, known as the paradise on earth, the beautiful scenery is unparalleled in the world, eating and playing is naturally indispensable, and several relatives are very happy to play.

However, these girls did not have any hope of coming a second time, not to mention that the distance between them is so far, and the transportation in this era is not convenient. And the so-called marrying chickens follow chickens, after the girls get married, they can't go back to their parents' homes at will without the permission of their husbands and in-laws.

Of course, this is the rule of the Ming Dynasty, not the rule of Jiang Feng. Looking at the cheering appearance of several girls, the girls around twenty years old on weekdays are all making a steady appearance of adults, and at this time, the liveliness and childlike innocence in their hearts were somewhat revealed, and Jiang Feng was also happy in his heart.

Jiang Feng went to Hangzhou to visit his father-in-law this time, obviously he had already planned it on the mountain, and after deciding, the people below acted quickly, and the chariot and horse guards were all ready to be completed quickly, or a team of 200 people, this time Zhang Liang accompanied him, and Luo Yi returned to Dengzhou from Shijiu to sit in the town.

Luo Yi, Zhao Xiucai and Liu Twelve jointly decided the affairs of the Dengzhou camp, and the affairs of the Shijiu camp were managed by a hundred households. Shipbuilding and private salt, all kinds of private business matters are fixed routines, as long as they follow the rules, Huang Ping since that time said that he wanted to move to other provinces for the elderly, this matter came to the end I don't know why, inexplicably there is no sound, presumably Huang Jin said something to him again, and now it is quite embarrassing to advance and retreat.

But Jiang Feng knew that his private salt business really needed Huang Ping's partnership with a person with a real background, so he simply treated the past as if it had not happened, and directly sent a letter to Huang Ping, saying that he was going to visit his father-in-law's house, and that he might not be in Shandong during the Spring Festival, so the unified distribution of private salt was handed over to Brother Huang to carry out Yunyun, and the annual distribution of private salt was actually a bumper harvest of silver money. The salt merchant and the salt lord must both be honored.

But after Jiang Feng did a few things, everyone gradually understood that whoever had the gun in his hand and who spoke was the most powerful, all of them were inclined to the direction of Dengzhou, and Huang Ping's extra oil and water were getting less and less, and now Jiang Feng made this move, which was also to give Huang Ping a chance to continue to develop in Shandong.

It takes five days to get to Jining on a fast horse from Dengzhou. Jiang Feng let his letter go first, and he took his family and team to slowly move towards Jining, the hub of the canal. After arriving in Jining, Huang Ping went out of the city fifty miles to greet him with great enthusiasm, and Jiang Feng knew in his heart that his actions still worked.

Speaking of which, to the surprise of Liu Fangrui and the Su sisters, the people accompanying them this time were Xia Cuiyu. Since Xia Cuiyu was robbed back to Jiangfu, Liu Fangrui and Su Guanyue have already acquiesced to this fact in their hearts, and only Su Guanxue has shown a certain degree of hostility towards Xia Cuiyu.

But then, things began to increase in Dengzhou Mansion, and Jiang Feng didn't have the heart to concentrate on the Xia family, although he promised Xia Cuiyu to get rid of Xia Qingjiao, a scum who had taken refuge in the Japanese Kou, and restore the reputation of the Xia family, but the strength in his hands was not enough to support the task of landing in Fujian. Moreover, the economic task of Jiang Feng's fleet is also very heavy, and it is impossible to interrupt the income of maritime trade.

After staying in the Jiang Mansion for a few months, Xia Cuiyu felt that this was not a way, before the Jiang family moved to the Thousand Households in Yantai Mountain, Xia Cuiyu took the initiative to say that if she was in the Jade Building, she could use it as an eyeliner for Jiang Feng in the city to find out the news, anyway, when she was in Jingshi, she also did the same thing in the name of the gambling house.

Jiang Feng thought about it for a while, Xia Cuiyu's proposal was probably the most suitable way, so he had to agree. Unexpectedly, during his time in Yantai Mountain, Jiang Feng was not half a step away from the barracks in Dengzhou, Xia Cuiyu's Jade Tower played a huge role in Dengzhou's capital city, and all kinds of news gathered on Yantai Mountain through the Jade Building, which can also be said to be quite meritorious, but Jiang Feng brought Xia Cuiyu with another intention this time.

Liu Fangrui was a little reluctant in her heart, thinking that what she said at dinner that day allowed her to marry another one was also a place left for Su Guanxue, why did this Jiang Feng climb up the pole and directly bring Xia Cuiyu onto the boat. But things are already like this, and when Liu Fangrui and the Su sisters were in Dengzhou Mansion, they dealt with Xia Cuiyu, and their attitude at that time was already acquiescing.

But the development of things is not the same as the ideas of several girls, when Jiang Feng was on the official boat, he lived with his family, but he arranged a separate boat for Xia Cuiyu, and Xia Cuiyu brought the maids to serve, which made Liu Fangrui scratch her head.

After a few days of feasting with Huang Ping in Jining, Jiang Feng and his entourage got on the official ship, and Shandong guerrillas went to Zhejiang to visit relatives, which is actually quite a nonsense thing, how can the big man of the town guard leave his post so easily, but after Jiang Feng spent some silver, it was convenient for each yamen.

The most prosperous area of Daming's economy is almost all around the banks of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal and other canal branches, which are naturally interesting along the way.

When I arrived in Hangzhou, the climate has gradually changed from the heat of summer to the pleasant of autumn, it is the best season in Hangzhou, after entering the Yangzhou boundary of Nanzhili, it is the so-called paradise on earth along the way, not only the scenery is beautiful, but also the place of incomparable wealth.

Since Jiang Feng killed 60 Japanese pirates outside the city of Hangzhou, plus a few Tieding training militias left behind to repel several Japanese pirates outside the city, Hangzhou City has restored its former prosperity a lot, and when he was at the boundary of Suzhou, Monk Li, who came ashore in Ningbo and hurried ashore, also followed the boat.

He got the news on the sea boat, knowing that Jiang Feng and his party would definitely not walk too fast on the canal, and that the main thing for play would definitely be stop-and-go, and now Monk Li, who had completely recovered his former wealth, knew that he could not leave Jiang Feng's private ports in Shandong at all. And he also understands that if he follows closely at this time, the oil and water obtained in the future may be greater, and it is not only oil and water.

It was precisely because he thought of these that Monk Li simply ignored Jiang Feng's absorption and transformation of his subordinates, he knew that as long as these people entered Jiang Feng's camp, they would not go back and follow him at all, but he was still willing, and he also mobilized his children and nephews to take the initiative to participate.

Now Jiang Feng's problem is that there are enough ships, but there are not enough sailors, and now the crew and captains on the "Rooster" are all scattered on various ships, and the sailors on Jiang Feng's first ten ships, as long as they are not too incompetent, they all have small official positions.

And these people are not only from what they were from before, but now they are all desperate to follow Jiang Feng's fleet to do it again, Jiang Feng's conditions are very simple, my fleet is the highest salary in all fleets, and there are a large number of positions and promotion opportunities, although the current sea is full of gold, but it is also windy and waves, attached to such a strong force, why not make money with peace of mind.

Now Monk Li is seizing every opportunity to flatter Jiang Feng, although he came to Hangzhou to visit relatives, but Monk Li understands in his heart that if there is nothing else, Jiang Feng will definitely not leave Dengzhou and leave the province. I can be regarded as half of the head snake in Hangzhou, and there will definitely be places where I can help.

Sure enough, the night before arriving in Hangzhou, Jiang Feng called Monk Li to his ship, and now the relationship between the two sides is the relationship between superiors and subordinates, not the so-called alliance, but everyone thinks that this state is quite normal, and they acquiesce to each other.

On the boat, Jiang Feng was not polite, and asked Monk Li directly:

"Are you familiar with the place here, do you know the best place to open a restaurant there?"
