Chapter 114: Tenderness in the Cabin
"The proprietor ......" Liang Xing stepped forward and whispered, "Could it be someone from Lingqiu?" ”
"Unlikely." Zhang Han said: "The Han family has almost been dug up, and the villains of the family are almost dead, and Han Tong himself is dead, how can there be such a dead man now, the main family is dead, and he has to risk his life to avenge him?" If it wasn't the Ming Dynasty at this time, I still believe it when it was the Warring States Period, now, Liang Xing, do you think it's possible? ”
Liang Xing didn't read the book in vain for a while, he also knew some of the so-called ancient winds, the so-called two peach killed three soldiers, Tianheng five hundred heroes, the heroic wind of the ancient Han people was not understood by future generations, and saving one's life was the mainstream, and in later generations, these ancient Han people were the object of ridicule. Zhang Han said when he explained to everyone that some people may not understand it in hindsight, but if it were not for the blood and fierceness of the ancient Han people, how could Huaxia occupy such a large place and snatch so many easy-to-cultivate territories in the north, west and south?
As for this time...... Liang Xing shook his head and said: "If Han Tong is still there, under the coercion and temptation, there may really be dead soldiers, and now it is absolutely impossible." ”
"Where's Han Qi?" Yang Qiu interjected: "I want to put someone on Han Qi's side, now he is one of the most powerful people we have offended, but the mansion of the political envoy can be inserted for a while, even if he goes in, he can't get close, although there is news over there, it is all trivial, this matter comes out, I am thinking, could it be the person Han Qi found to do this?" ”
Everyone was silent, Zhang Han looked around, and said with a loud smile: "There will be people from the Qing Military Hall who will come to check, the people who assassinated me are all dead here, it doesn't matter much, it will inevitably offend people in business, but there are still a few people who are dead, and this matter is also beyond my expectations, the two uncles, as well as the mother, Chang Wei, the eldest sister, everyone has dispersed to rest." ”
Everyone has a look on their faces, of course, there are enemies in business, and even the risk of going out is not small, the folk customs around the country are strong and weak, good and evil, pole bandits everywhere, merchants do need to take risks, the control of the imperial court in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties declined, and the homeless bandits are everywhere, which is also the reason for the boom in the dart industry in Shanxi and Hebei in the early Qing Dynasty, I have never heard of businessmen being assassinated at home, and it is also three men in black who come to assassinate in the middle of the night, Is this something that an ordinary businessman can encounter?
Chang Jinquan only faintly felt at this time that Zhang Han's nephew's business was probably not so simple, no wonder it rose so fast, expanded so rapidly, the more dangerous those businesses with large profits, the more they had to seize any opportunity to expand, once the pace of expansion was stopped, all kinds of hidden dangers would be exposed.
"Okay......" Zhang Han faintly felt the distrust of everyone, the worry in the eyes of his two uncles and mother, especially the fact that he felt that the Chang family might withdraw from the matter, which made him feel a trace of oppression.
Seeing that there were trustworthy people all around, Zhang Han took a deep breath and slowly explained the specific reason for his exit.
“…… That's the way it is, it's not Lingqiu, it should be done by people who have interests in my exit, it is conceivable that within ten or eight years, as long as the road goes smoothly and there are no major problems, Yusheng and I may develop to millions or even tens of millions of family assets, this wealth is too big, it is too tempting, it is worth breaking the law and prohibiting, and even to the point that I must take my life to compete with me for this wealth, it is not that I am doing things that hurt the heavens and reason, it is really that this cake is too big and tempting, and it is worth fighting for my life......"
"I see...... Chang Jinquan has always been strange to Zhang Han for continuing to take out the silver to collect grain, cloth and groceries, and at the same time strange and Yusheng meddling in the iron-making industry, after all, the iron industry is recognized as a low-profit and difficult inferior business, that is, those gentry in Lingqiu are treasures, and which of the really rich and powerful gentry is involved in the iron industry, it turns out that Zhang Han has his own big hills and ravines in his heart, from iron to cloth, to grain, the whole package is complete.
"Brother Han, you are amazing!" Chang Jinquan was excited, clapped his hands and said to Zhang Han: "From iron to cloth, to grain, from Beiyu to Dongyu, this is a big article, you did a good job, you did a good job!" ”
Chang Jin said disapprenously: "In the end, it is also a loophole in the imperial court and selling things to the Tartars, what is there to call it." ”
No one present paid attention to him, and Chang Jinyou himself was not particularly disgusted, but after all, he was a scholar, and he naturally looked down on Tartars, and he didn't like to talk about the benefits and harms nakedly.
Chang Jin ignored the eldest brother, and continued: "This time, Wei'er and your cousin have to learn better, this is a big deal, do a good job, within ten years, and Yusheng can overpower the Fan family, but also more than the Puzhou Zhang family back then, with a huge net worth of millions, a hundred years old, this is the best time for Yusheng to rise, and it is also the best opportunity for us to do business and learn from it, Chang Wei, you listen well, you have to be cautious in everything, listen to your Brother Han's instructions, do you hear clearly?" ”
Chang Wei also had a solemn face at this time, he was only fifteen, but he had been helping on the Chang family's cabinet for six or seven years, he was well-informed and knew that he was powerful, so he replied in a deep voice: "Don't worry, Dad, I will listen to Brother Han in everything." ”
Chang Shi said on the side: "Second brother, this matter is so dangerous, I don't want to call Brother Han to ......"
Chang Jinquan's eyes widened, and he said in surprise: "Eldest sister, why do you say such a foolish thing?" This is done, your family will be rich for 200 years, and Brother Han and the North and East have a relationship, no matter how many years the Ming Dynasty still has the royal spirit, and what new dynasty is built, the wealth of the Zhang family is a hardcore crop, no one can take it away, which dynasty will not have such a merchant who can deal with the Tartars? What about such a big thing, such a good prospect, what about taking risks, how can there be wealth to be picked up on the ground? Brother Han has come to this point, how many people expect him to get rich, how can the people above him allow him to shrink back, and how can he be so calculated with so much foreshadowing before? If you don't leave the plug, the smuggling thing can't be done, and it is difficult for He Yusheng to maintain the current situation, you are really a woman, just say some foolish things. ”
My uncle started the state of spraying here, and Zhang Han could only listen with a wry smile on the side, but he was also glad in his heart, if it wasn't for the second uncle who was here and saw the assassination with his own eyes, his mother and mother might not have been able to pass this level, but now it's okay, naturally someone will help him speak, and it is almost impossible for Chang to refuse.
For a while, the people from the Qing Military Hall came, of course, they couldn't see anything, and the servants carried the three corpses away, but they probably couldn't find anything, so they burned and buried them directly.
It's not Lingqiu, it can't be Han Qi, the forces behind these three corpses are cold and huge, Zhang Han is also secretly vigilant in his heart, Yang Qiu and Liang Xing are even more aggressive, doubling Zhang Han's guards in the fort, a whole squad of guards follows every day, the Zhang family's hidden piles outside and Mingli's guards have increased, and it is estimated that unless the other party sends out an army, it is impossible to cause anything else in Xinping Fort.
Zhang Han knew that at the most tense time just now, the dart line in the fort had been urgently mobilized, Wang Changfu and others gathered more than 200 dart divisions, weapons in hand, horses on the side, at any time to deal with the most urgent emergencies, the result did not develop to the worst point, but this also made Zhang Han very vigilant, no matter how Xinping Fort is also someone else's territory, there is its own uncontrollable force, in the future, it is necessary to choose a suitable place, build a new larger territory, and completely decide by yourself.
He knew that from the Eastern Jin Dynasty to the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the Han landlord Haoqiang built a large number of dock forts in the north to protect his family and people, perhaps in this troubled era, this is a very good way.
"This is really dangerous......" In the east wing hut in the backyard, the lights emitted a faint light, the willow kept chattering in his hands, and his mouth kept chattering, Zhang Han felt a hot pain in his shoulder, but in front of him was the soft little hand of the willow flying up and down, the snow white skin was tender, and the nose was faintly virgin fragrance, this small pain, but there was no need to take it too seriously.
"Young master, bear with me." There was a soft reminder from behind the shoulder, and then Zhang Han felt a sharp pain in the shoulder, and then a burst of coolness, and then Yang Liu began to hold a soft white cloth to bandage the wound for Zhang Han.
Zhang Han's shoulders and upper body are bare, his skin is also very good, exuding a unique luster of young men, there seems to be endless vitality under the skin, Yang Liu's hand keeps moving on Zhang Han's skin, feeling that his heart is beating faster and faster, as if he is about to jump out of the cavity.
Just when everyone left, they remembered the injury on Zhang Han's shoulder, but fortunately, the doctor had arrived and sent the medicine in, but it was difficult for a female dependent to come in the inner courtyard, at this time Zhang Han named Yang Liu to clean and bandage himself, Yang Liu couldn't remember his psychological curve at that time, anyway, it was a mess.
At this time, all her thoughts settled, and her hand kept stroking Zhang Han**'s back, at this time, Yang Liu felt that she and the man in front of her finally had a real time of intimacy, although this closeness was not what she had imagined when she slept alone at midnight.
"Thanks, Willow."
After bandaging Yu, Zhang Han sat up straight, and Yang Liu put on his robe for him, and then cleaned up the dirt.
He just sat like this, watching the girls in front of him busy cleaning up, sometimes bending over, sometimes turning around, in the dim light in the middle of the night, Yang Liu's figure seemed to be more attractive than during the day, Zhang Han felt that his heart was also throbbing, and he felt that the atmosphere in the room had become awkward and strange.
Hearing Zhang Han's thanks, Yang Liu turned his head, pursed his lips and smiled: "It is a blessing to be able to serve the young master as a subordinate, so why do you need any thanks." ”
"I don't think so." Zhang Han smiled, but did not elaborate.
