Li Daqi's fleet has two fleets, a total of more than 60 ships, all of which are 500 to 800 stone cargo ships, under Li Daqi's order all the ships have arrived in the capital, because of the large scale, in the capital ships are very nervous at the moment is quite eye-catching.

Li Daqi was more worried that they would be requisitioned by the military, so during the day, the boats were moored in the small river dozens of miles away, and only after night did they quietly sail into the Bianhe River and moored at the pier outside Baoyan Zhai.

But even so, Li Daqi still didn't dare to be careless, and only let four ships come to act as ferries to transport people and goods to the periphery and board the ships, especially since the Jin State had invaded the Great Song Dynasty, and if the fleet was discovered by the government at this time, it would inevitably be requisitioned.

Although the ferry boat did not come until after dark, the people who were going to go south by boat came from all directions, these people were the clerks of Baoyan Zhai and their families, Li Daqi employed nearly 200 people in the capital, including clerks, workers and craftsmen who developed new products, plus their parents, wives and children, there were as many as 1,000 people, and some fellow villagers from Tangyin County would also take the boat south.

Of course, it will not be that everyone is willing to go south, nor will it be all left by boat at one time, everyone will go south in batches, today is the third batch, and the place of resettlement is not a place in Hangzhou.

In recent years, Li Daqi has bought a large amount of land and houses in the south, mainly in Hangzhou, Mingzhou, Suzhou, Jiangning and Jiangxia, and there are also a small number of houses in Jiangling, Guangzhou, Quanzhou and Chengdu, but they can be ignored.

Hangzhou, Suzhou and Jiangning are mainly based on urban houses, while the manor land is mainly concentrated in Mingzhou and Jiangxia, Mingzhou is today's Ningbo, where Li Daqi has docks, warehouses and three manors.

Jiangxia is mainly based on manors, Li Daqi purchased 2,000 hectares of land there, forming ten Baihua manors, and Lushan Academy has also moved to Jiangkou Town in the south of Jiangxia County last year.

Jiangkou Town is also a major transit place for Baoyan Zhai, including the Li family, Wang Gui and Tang Huai families, many Tangyin clans are gathered there, plus more than 1,000 students of Lushan Academy, Jiangkou Town has been prosperous like a county seat, and has been called Xiaotangyin in Jiangxia.

Today, a group of about 300 people who moved south went to Hangzhou, and everyone carried large bags and small bags, and each person could also carry a suitcase, and they brought almost all their wealth with them.

Bao Yan Zhai was crowded with people, everyone found a place to sit on the ground, several familiar people gathered together, their backs leaned on their soft wealth, the weather was relatively hot, and there were constantly men bringing herbal tea and snacks.

Although there are many people in Baoyan Zhai, they are very quiet, for fear that the government will come to find trouble, this kind of large-scale crowd is generally allowed to gather with the approval of the government, and the imperial court does not allow the large-scale migration of the population of the capital to the south, so it must keep a low profile.

There were also many young children in the southward migration crowd, they were held by their mothers, gently shaking and coaxing, because Li Daqi was well prepared, Bao Yanzhai had plenty of food, water and medicine, everyone consciously kept quiet, patiently waiting for the night to fall.

Li Yanqing was instructing a few bookkeepers, "You go and tell everyone that there are only four ferries, and the luggage and people should be separated, and the people should be sent over to change boats first, and then the packages and boxes will be sent, and everyone will write their names on the baggage and boxes." ”

Several bookkeepers went separately to make arrangements, and at this time, another family came in, but it was Tang Zhenzong, his wife and two daughters, who also carried five or six burdens and three boxes.

Li Yanqing hurriedly greeted him, "Zhenzong, are you going to leave today?" ”

Tang Zhenzong shook his head, "I won't leave today, but my wife and daughter will go over first, and I will deal with the aftermath of the inn, and I will go with you when I turn around." ”

The Tang family's only asset in the capital is the Tang inn, and many businessmen who realize that the situation is not good, the Tang family also wanted to sell the inn covering an area of three acres last year, the location of the inn is very good, close to the state of Xiwazi, at least 80,000 yuan, but the tooth man Li Gouer ran for him for a year, this inn is no one wants to take over, Tang Zhenzong continued to reduce the price to 30,000 yuan, still could not find a buyer, Tang Zhenzong had to die this heart.

However, Tang Zhenzong listened to Li Daqi's advice when the price of silver was 1,500 yuan, and exchanged all the 30,000 yuan accumulated in the store for silver, seeing that the price of silver continued to rise, which also made Tang Zhenzong's heart feel a lot more comfortable.

Li Daqi patted him on the shoulder, "Let my sister-in-law and the child go to my study to rest, there is something I want to ask you to do for a favor." ”

"What's the matter?"

Li Daqi asked a female clerk to take Tang Zhenzong's wife and daughter to the study to rest first, and then pulled Tang Zhenzong aside and whispered to him: "I want to ask you to go back to Tangyin County to help me move the tomb." ”

This is the second time that Li Daqi has told Tang Zhenzong about this matter, and moved the bones of his wife to Hangzhou.

Tang Zhenzong smiled bitterly and said to Li Daqi: "Daqi, it's not that I don't want to help you, I also happen to go back to Tangyin, deal with the affairs of the Tang clan, and help you move the tomb is a gesture, but I still have to persuade you, in fact, there is no need, your Li family clan cemetery is over there, and Yun Niang's mother's cemetery is also in Tangyin, why do you have to move her tomb out, moving to Hangzhou is a departure from your hometown, and I say something unpleasant, you only move your wife's tomb, but you don't care about your parents' tomb, it's really not appropriate." ”

Li Daqi was silent for a while, in fact, he didn't want to move the tomb, but his son told him a few times that he would move his mother's tomb to Hangzhou, and Li Daqi asked Tang Zhenzong to help.

However, Tang Zhenzong's last sentence said in essence, if Li Daqi only moved his wife's tomb and ignored his parents, he would be poked in the back, and his parents were buried in the family cemetery, and they could not be moved at will, which was actually a dead loop.

Li Daqi pondered for a long time, so he had to sigh and say, "That's it!" You go and help me level the tomb, plant a few trees next to it, and go back and bring back the tombstone. ”

"That's right, it's the same to build a mound in Hangzhou! My father's tomb was also going to be treated in the same way, and a clothed mound was built in Jiangxia. ”

"When will you go back to Tangyin?"

"There are still more than a dozen families who want to bring them out, and the time is relatively tight, and I plan to leave tomorrow."

Li Daqi thought for a while and said, "I heard that Brother Yue'er's father died, so you simply brought Brother Yue'er's family out, and Yanqing told me a few times." ”

"No problem, I'll do it by the way."

........

At night, four cargo ships quietly arrived at the dock at the back door of Baoyan Zhai under the cover of night, a cargo ship can seat thirty people, the first batch of one hundred and twenty people lined up in turn to get on the ship, the ship sailed away from the dock, soon disappeared in the night, and sailed to the transit place thirty miles away, they will transport all the people and luggage out of the capital overnight, and sail to Hangzhou after changing ships at the transit place.

........

As soon as the morning dawned, Li Daqi came to Cao's house, the porter knew Li Daqi, and hurriedly invited Li Daqi to sit in the house for a while, and the porter ran to report, not long after, Cao Yan, the eldest son of Cao Ping, hurried to the gatehouse, hugged his fists and saluted: "Let Li Yuanwai wait for a long time, please enter the house to rest!" ”

Li Daqi smiled slightly: "Excuse me!" ”

He then followed Cao Yan to the guest hall and sat down, Cao Yan said apologetically: "My father's condition has just improved, he is still recuperating, and he can't see guests, please forgive me!" ”

"It doesn't matter! Anyway! It's the same with the eldest brother. ”

"I don't know what to see when you come to visit?" Cao Yan asked politely.

Li Daqi smiled and said: "Actually, there are only two things, the first is to visit the old man's condition, since his condition has improved, it is enough to make people happy." ”

"Thank you for your concern, please continue!"

"The second thing is that Baoyanzhai still has more than 20 ships outside the city, all of which are cargo ships of 500 stones, does Cao Fu also need to transfer some of the clansmen to Hangzhou first?"

Cao Yan was immediately overjoyed, this is also something he has been very troubled about these days, the Cao family has hundreds of clans and hundreds of maids and servants in the capital, although they can also take an ox cart to the south, but it is too hard to take the car, and there is a lot of wealth that cannot be transferred, he is anxious about this matter these days, Li Daqi suddenly told him that there are more than 20 ships, how can he not be overjoyed.

"Thank you so much Li Yuanwai, I'm worried about this matter! Now the ships have been requisitioned by the military, and there are no ships to be found at all. ”

Li Daqi smiled slightly, "You're welcome, we're also relatives!" At present there are only twenty-five ships, and in twenty days the fleet will return to more than sixty, and I propose to send the people away first, and then transport all kinds of goods. ”

"Just what I want, I wonder how many people can be transported by twenty-five ships?"

"If you squeeze a little, you can seat 600 people, and if you want to be comfortable on the road, about 120 or 30 people will be about the same."

"Alright! I'll make arrangements first, I'll give the staff a clear plan early tomorrow morning, and then I'll leave tomorrow night! ”

Li Daqi nodded, "No problem, when you are ready, set off from Hongqiao Baoyan Zhai." ”
