Li Meng got up early, but now Liu Qian was already waiting outside the house, and respectfully said that the town guard had urgent official business, so he would not come to see him off. Li Meng knew that this was an old man who was unwilling to experience a farewell, both of them were adults, and they would feel a little embarrassed if they were emotional, and every farewell in this era was likely to never see each other again.

The guards by their side are ready to move, and all they have to do now is to find ships to transport the armor and harness from the arsenal.

Tell Liu Qian about this matter, it seems that there are preparations over there, Liu Qian just smiled and said, the nephew and young master will leave in the afternoon, and the arrangements have been made here.

The guards who followed Li Meng also knew about Shandong's life, these people were all die-hard descendants of the Jiaozhou battalion, and when they heard that the Jiaozhou battalion was suffering in Shandong, they were worried in their hearts, and their emotions and anger were inevitable, everyone wanted to go back earlier, and they had already prepared everything last night, just waiting for the morning to start.

So even from morning to afternoon, these people also felt anxious, Li Meng was also a little anxious, the people of the town guard prepared a rather sumptuous lunch, after the people were full of food and drink, Liu Qian, who was full of smiles, came over to greet Li Meng, saying that he could go on the road.

The Father Federer's health was very bad, it should be because of the weakness caused by lack of nutrition, and he couldn't recover in a day, Li Meng also equipped him and Su Anqi with a carriage alone, and the old priest sat in the carriage and prayed sincerely, saying that it was a blessing from heaven.

Although Dunglas preferred to be scolded yesterday, he would have brought back food for Su Anqi and the priest, but on the way from the town guard to the ferry. The habit of being lazy and lazy is full.

Several times I wanted to rub a carriage to sit. were pulled down by the soldiers of the Jiaozhou camp, thinking that you, a big man, followed the old and weak to grab what kind of car to sit in, of course, if it is not lazy, there are many places where Nanjing City can make money. Why bother to make money in the casino.

This Deng Yangren has no trace of foreigner appearance except for his golden eyes, and his tongue is very convenient, he has seen a lot from Europe to the Ming Dynasty, and he is a familiar temper, just listen to his babbling along the way. The relationship with the Jiaozhou battalion is heating up quickly.

But the question of the merits of axes, guns and spears. The Jiaozhou battalion will definitely not be sloppy, since the matter is urgent at the moment, but you Deng Yangren will follow you to Shandong, and you must be superior when the time comes.

Dungrass gave in on other things, but he insisted on not relaxing, and he was very persistent, and the two sides agreed to a competition.

Originally, after knowing the news from Shandong, everyone was anxious, but after seeing Li Meng's calm expression this morning. Everyone was anxious, but their minds calmed down, and they didn't feel anything.

The time to travel in Nanjing was not too long, and it took half an hour to go out of the city to the ferry, and in front of him were a few people from the town guard mansion leading the way, and Liu Qian was accompanying Li Meng. The two sides were also speechless.

Li Meng saw the ferry as soon as he saw it on the horse. But there were a few acquaintances who hurriedly ran over to this side, and it was the Zheng family I saw a few days ago. For Zheng Shark.

When I met with Li Meng that day, the two sides greeted each other, Zheng Shark just hugged his fists and bent down to salute, although Li Meng had an official body, but it was an equal salute, but today was different, first Zheng Shark trotted over, and before Li Meng dismounted, he took the initiative to smile and lean down and kneel, kowtow to Li Meng, and said in a loud voice:

"If you offend that day, please atone for your sins."

This obviously means that a few days ago, Li Meng couldn't see the old man kneeling in front of him, not to mention that the relationship between the Jiaozhou camp and the other party was still very close, and he wanted to get off the horse, but he was dragged down by Liu Qian on the horse, although Liu Qian was a subordinate in the town's guard, but at this time he was very powerful.

didn't put the kneeling sea tycoon below in his eyes at all, just turned his head and said to Li Meng with a smile:

"The Ba Min Commercial Bank heard that the nephew and young master were going to return to Shandong, and took the initiative to provide ship transportation, which is really worthy of praise!"

There are righteous people, it is clear that they have offended the Weiyuan Marquis, at this time, if you don't come to climb the town guard mansion and Li Meng's high branches, it is difficult to guarantee that someone will be retaliated against that day, and bargain with Li Meng that day, who would have thought that Li Meng was actually a relative of the eunuch who guarded the town, and it was too late for such a person to stammer, let alone negotiate conditions.

Of course, the shopkeeper Zheng was also secretly scolding in his heart, thinking that you have such a powerful relative, what are you looking for our Zheng family to do, isn't this a trick?

After Liu Qian found them, the Fujian Commercial Bank was immediately mobilized, and some of the ships that had been loaded were also emptied, specifically for Li Meng's side to load people and goods.

It seems that in the morning, armor, horse harness and other things have been transported here, Liu Qian and Li Meng went to several ships under the leadership of the Zheng family to count, and the armor and horse harness have been shipped.

After reading these goods, Liu Qian signaled that he had something to say to Li Meng, Li Meng let the guards around him stay farther away, Liu Qian beckoned to the people behind him, someone drove three big carts over, and the cars were all iron-clad boxes, Li Meng noticed a detail, the ruts were very deep, and it was obvious that the weight of the goods pulled by the carriage was not light.

Liu Qian lowered his voice and said:

"Seven thousand taels of gold, and thirty thousand taels of silver tickets, this is the money that the lord ordered the villain to give to the young master last night."

More than 100,000 taels!? Li Meng was immediately taken aback by this amount, even if he owed money to repay the debt, the 50,000 taels he lent out doubled all of a sudden, although the eunuch of the town guard mansion was Xuanhe, but the expenses were also large, he had only been in office for half a year, and he had given himself so much, how much could he have left.

This eunuch Liu didn't look like a greedy person, looking at Li Meng's surprised expression, Liu Qian smiled and explained first:

"The lord came to Nanjing to take office, the merchants in Nanzhili, the generals everywhere put together 150,000 taels of meeting gifts, the town guard is less spent here, and there is more filial piety, the lord said, this silver is also pension money left on his side, and it is more useful to you here, young master."

Li Meng shook his head, there was some indescribable feeling in his heart, and he was quiet before he spoke:

"I can't see each other today, so please ask Steward Liu to thank my uncle on my behalf!"

After getting Li Meng's reply, Liu Qian nodded with a smile and waved his hand to the back, and the servants on the side of the cart all jumped out of the car and put those boxes on the boat.

This is not over, seeing a lot of things, Liu Qian greeted the bow of the boat, and saw a general wearing a mandarin duck battle jacket quickly walked off the boat, walked in front of the two people, and bowed down.

Li Meng knew this person, it was Qianhu Huang Ping, this person didn't get up after kneeling, Liu Qian said with a smile:

"Among the generals of the Praetorian Guard, this Huang Ping came from the Beijing Division with the master, and it used to be a small military academy in Beijing, and the elders in the family are the old friends of the master, and they are considered to be motivated children. It's just that in the guards of this Nanjing city, people were raised, and they pestered the master several times to say that they wanted to be released to be a military academy, but they couldn't find a suitable place, this child and the nephew and the young master are also fateful, and he stayed in Jiaozhou for a while, and he came to Nanjing and had this opportunity, and the master said that he would let him and the young nephew! “

As soon as the words fell, Huang Ping, who was kneeling there, knocked his head a few times again, and said respectfully:

"Please ask the young master nephew to take Huang in, before and after the saddle, he will definitely die."

Seeing Huang Ping in the barracks that night, as well as the emotions of this Qianhu, Li Meng had a good impression of him, but it was difficult to say whether such a person was willing to serve in the army by his side, or whether the old eunuch or someone else kept an eye on him.

But what is the identity, he always has to take it in here, Li Meng didn't say anything kind like please, just said indifferently:

"Young Master Nephew is a private title, let's call it an adult in the future!"

Hearing Li Meng say this, Huang Ping immediately knew that this was the other party taking him in, and kowtowed a few times on the ground, and retreated respectfully, Liu Qian added:

"Huang Ping still has a few cronies here, and he has to take care of his nephew."

Li Meng nodded, watching several of his subordinates finish the inspection on each ship, and the guards are all on the boat, thinking that the matter should be over when he is looking for a boat, giving money, and giving people, but seeing that Liu Qian has not yet said goodbye, he is a little puzzled, and is about to ask.

I heard Liu Qian say with a smile:

"The deeds of the nephew and young master fighting the little marquis in Meilou have now spread all over Nanjing City, and the commentator in the teahouse tavern has made up this matter into a joke!"

Li Menggan laughed a few times, this matter is not very glorious no matter how you say it, but I don't know why the other party is bringing it up now.

The smile on Liu Qian's face was very intriguing, and he said respectfully over there:

"Master nephew, and there are a lot of years this year, and there should be some people in the room who are waiting... When he spoke, Liu Qian clapped his hands, and a group of people came over there, Li Meng looked at it, but he was a little dumbfounded, but there were a few sturdy mothers-in-law holding two women walking towards this side, the reason why it was not said to be support, because the two women were always struggling there.

But these two women didn't cry and scold, but it was also strange, when passing by Li Meng's side, a girl turned her head and looked at him hatefully, and scolded in her mouth:

"Shameless!"

The mother-in-law on the side immediately took out a handkerchief, seeing that the handkerchief was very clean, and stuffed it directly into the woman's mouth, and still got on the boat, but the woman behind her glared at Li Meng expressionlessly, and it was the same result, behind these mothers-in-law, there were also six or seven little maids, and there were also people Li Meng knew.

The scolding woman in front is Gu Hengbo, and although the woman in the back doesn't know her, she is unusually beautiful between her eyebrows and eyes, and there is a sense of coldness, which is also stunning.
