Li Shichao listened to the investigation of many secret agents in Jiangnan, and all the spearheads were pointed at the city of Nanjing, as expected by the imperial court, the state capitals in Jiangnan were already indecisive about the new policy, but they did not dare to disobey Zhu Youzhen's holy decree and the official documents of the cabinet, and when it was implemented, they all saw that Nanjing did nothing, and more than once put aside the urging documents sent by the cabinet and did not ask about it, and the officials of these state capitals gradually became bolder, which led to the attitude of the state capitals of Nanzhili towards the new policy today, and all the sources are Nanjing.

Li Shichao is very helpless in the face of this situation, if it is according to his ideas, he must play Zhu Youzhen and introduce the situation here one by one, but he is not the person in charge, the person in charge is Wen Tiren, he can't get around Wen Tiren, he can only return to the post station and discuss with Wen Tiren.

Li Shichao and five brocade guards walked to the streets of Nanjing, which was even more prosperous than the Beijing Division.

This Nanjing is the capital, the political status is the highest in addition to the Beijing Division, plus Nanjing is the ancient capital of several dynasties, the scenery is beautiful, there are many scenic spots, and there are countless people who come here to play, just say that the Qinhuai River, there are many stories of talented and beautiful people on the Qinhuai River.

Li Shichao and five Jinyi guards came to the Qinhuai River, they didn't come here to have fun, but to meet for a while that merry young master Jin Shangyou, Jin Shangyou's family is rich, and his father is the prefect of Nanjing, although the official position in Nanjing is not too high, but it is also a real power, Jin Shangyou's days in Nanjing are very comfortable, every day out to mess with flowers and grass, and no one cares about him at home.

It is also quite a coincidence, Huaxiang Building, the largest flower building by the Qinhuai River, has Hua Dan performing today, and Jin Shangyou will definitely be on the spot, Li Shichao and several Jinyi guards also entered Huaxiang Building and sat under the stage.

After Li Shichao sat down, he looked up and looked back, and Jin Shangyou was sitting in the private room on the second floor, hugging left and right, so unhappy.

This Huaxianglou is a place where you need to spend a lot of money to live happily, and all the people who come here to have fun are young people with assets and backgrounds.

The sound of popularity is endless.

At this time, the glamorous Huaxianglou was quiet, and a woman came up in the stands, wearing a scarf and holding the pipa.

The music is very beautiful, but here are some sons who come to find fun, where will there be a master of music theory, everyone thinks it is really good, more or look at the girl on the stage, the girl is exquisite, and the exposed glasses also have all kinds of style.

After the song, the old bustard came to the stage, holding the girl with one hand, waving her gorgeous handkerchief with the other, and shouted: "This girl's name is Shen Yingting, she just turned eighteen years old this year, I don't know which son will be blessed tonight to spend a good night with our family Tingting." ”

"Old bustard, don't be crepe, just say it, how many silver taels." A man sitting at the table next to Li Shichao shouted loudly, very vulgar, that Shen Yingting frowned, thinking that she was also disgusted with this son, but she couldn't decide her fate, this Qinglou was like this.

"Chen Gongzi, don't worry, we still have the old rules here, five hundred silver taels, and the one with the highest price will get it." The old bustard said with a lewd smile.

Li Shichao's vision changed, these five hundred taels are a huge amount of money, how many cannons can be made, how many firearms can be produced, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it can even pull up an army of thousands of people.

"The one with the highest price will get it, and the young master will have eight hundred taels." As soon as the son surnamed Chen opened his mouth, he added three hundred taels of chips, and it was obvious that he was bound to win tonight.

After listening, many people retreated, only a few sons of the private room on the second floor increased the price, and after taking turns to increase the price, this romantic night was sold for more than 1,300 taels.

Li Shichao has been observing the Jin Shangyou sitting in the private room, he has not increased the price once, is it possible that he is not interested in this woman, just when Li Shichao pondered, the price increase seemed to have reached the decisive moment, the most fierce is still the son surnamed Chen who just opened his mouth to shout the price, 1,500 taels, although Li Shichao is the commander of the same knowledge, the court member, but for him, this silver tael is also astronomical, even if he sold his real estate in Beijing, he can't get so much silver taels, thinking so, Li Shichao is more determined that Chongzhen's new policy is right, And now they are very angry, the soldiers of Liaodong are facing the attack of war every day and every night, and they are dedicated to the country at any time, and the people of Shaanxi are all starving, which, this Nanjing is so extravagant, it is really too hateful.

The old bustard smiled when she saw that the price was so high, and she spent less than a hundred taels of silver to cultivate this girl, which was really a million profits.

The old bustard said: "Chen Gongzi drove to 1,500 taels, is there anything higher than him, is there anything higher than him?" ”

At this time, Jin Shangyou, who had not spoken, let go of the two women in his arms, walked out of the private room, and said to the stands below: "One thousand six hundred taels." ”

The old bustard saw Jin Shangyou shouting 1,600 taels, and he couldn't control his emotions with joy: "Jin Gongzi, out of 1,600 taels, Jin Gongzi, out of 1,600 taels." ”

When the son surnamed Chen heard Jin Shangyou speak, he turned his head, looked at Jin Shangyou and sneered: "Jin Shangyou, now that the patrol envoys have arrived in Nanjing, you still don't want to plan how to save your life with your Lao Tzu, and you dare to run here to rob a woman with the master." ”

Hearing the words of this son surnamed Chen, Li Shichao felt strange, why did he say this, could it be that this surnamed Chen knew some hidden secrets.

Jin Shangyou glanced at the son surnamed Chen and said softly: "Chen Heng, if you talk nonsense again, not only will my father be unkind to you, but even your father will not be able to spare you." “

After Chen Heng listened, he thought about it, didn't speak, sat down, and took a sip of wine.

The more Li Shiyue heard it, the more he felt interesting, and he also had some thoughts in his heart.

Jin Shang swam down the second floor, walked to the stage, and took the girl to go upstairs.

"Jin Gongzi, the official hasn't made an offer yet, are you too anxious?" Li Shichao said with a smile on his face.

When Jin Shangyou heard Li Shichao's words, he turned his head and looked at Li Shichao, with some doubts in his heart, this is Hualou, even if an official comes here, he will not call himself an official, but this person claims to be an official, is it possible that he wants to know that he has an official position? However, Jin Shangyou is not afraid.

"Then this lord, which yamen in Nanjing does he work in?" Jin Shangyou said indifferently.

"Wrong, Jin Gongzi, this official is not serving in Nanjing, he is serving in Beijing, and he only went to Nanjing for business today." Li Shichao stood up as he spoke.
