"Okay, let's sit down and talk...... Chang said with a smile: "It's said that it's a close relative, and it's rare to get together like this for so many years, the last time the second brother came over, Brother Han was still young, and the grandfather and his father were still there, and it has been more than ten years......

Everyone was also embarrassed when they heard this, Zhang Han himself didn't care, Chang Ning glanced at Zhang Han a few times, and couldn't help but feel a little sympathy in his heart.

Looking at Zhang Han again, his eyebrows were delicate, his demeanor was calm, and he let his father and second uncle into the house to talk, and he was also calm when talking, and his tone was full of confidence, Chang Ning also listened carefully to the content of the conversation, and gradually felt some admiration for Zhang Han in his heart.

After all, she is the daughter of a merchant, Chang Ning knows some superficial things in Shangdao, Zhang Han's words are precise and sophisticated, and when he tells the story of Lingqiu, everyone also admires his decisiveness in first forbearance and then a fatal blow, and unconsciously, the whole room is dominated by Zhang Han, and everyone's emotions are fluctuating with his words.

"Cousin," Chang Wei's heart shook when he heard this, and he immediately said to Zhang Han: "I heard that you are going to Saiwai, take me with you, right?" ”

Zhang Han said: "You say I'm going to play? There are a lot of horse bandits outside the Sai, and the Northern Tartars are also divided into a number of shares, some of them have a relationship with us, and most of them don't recognize us, in case there is a conflict missing, but I'm afraid that you won't be able to cry when the time comes. ”

Chang Wei said: "Although I am not good at martial arts, nor do I know archery, but I love to ride a horse, I am not afraid of not getting off the horse for a day, I can also endure hardships, take me with me, see the world, and in the future, like my cousin, you can be so capable." ”

Chang Jinquan originally did not approve of his son's going, he only had this son under his knees to grow up, before there were two sons who died early, and there were two children under the head who didn't know if they could grow up, the medical conditions and health conditions of this era were too poor, and the infant mortality rate was far higher than the imagination of future generations, even if the Chang family was such a rich family, the disease was almost helpless when finding the child, Chinese medicine has pediatrics, but Chinese medicine basically relies on experience to make prescriptions, good Chinese medicine can be fine-tuned according to the condition, and the almost only know to stick to the rules, Traditional Chinese medicine is bitter and hard to swallow, and it is too easy for children in this era to kill themselves with a flu.

But Chang Wei's words also made Chang Jinquan excited.

Zhang Han's age is less than two years older than Chang Wei, and Zhang Han already has such an achievement, Chang Wei Tianzi is not bad, if he really goes out with his cousin and increases his knowledge and knowledge, maybe he will really achieve great achievements in the future, even if he is not as good as Zhang Han, I am afraid that he is much stronger than ordinary businessmen.

"Brother Han, bring your brother with you, and tell him to go and have a long experience!" Chang Jinquan has already thought about it, knowing that he can't bear the wolf if he is reluctant to let the child trap, and there must be a ruthlessness in the business field.

"Since the second uncle said so...... Zhang Han felt helpless, looking at his mother, he obviously agreed with him to pull Chang Wei, after all, he is Chang's maiden junior, Chang Wei is promising, Chang is also happy, Zhang Han had to respond: "I will take Brother Wei with me, I must protect him thoroughly, but he may not be obedient, when the time comes, I will whip him, the second uncle should not be unhappy." ”

Chang Jinquan said: "You think I don't whip him? This kid doesn't know how many beatings he's been beaten, he's very skinny, you just have to beat, I won't be angry. ”

Chang Wei said depressedly when he heard this: "What kind of skin do I ......have?"

Everyone is laughing, Chang Ning is also laughing, Zhang Han noticed that she was almost silent, just sitting on the side and listening quietly, sometimes with wide eyes, sometimes with a shallow smile, in the curved eyes of the moon, sometimes full of laughter, which is intoxicating.

At this time, she let go of her smile, as if the peony flowers were in full bloom, and almost nine points of the color between heaven and earth were condensed on her face.

"No wonder people say that beauties can fall into ......"

At this moment, Zhang Han could only think like this.

"By the way, I also gave my mother and two uncles, as well as Brother Wei and my eldest sister, and brought some soil from Lingqiu."

What Zhang Han took out was a pile of gold ornaments.

In addition to iron ore in Lingqiu, there are several small gold mines, gold mines in the Ming Dynasty are almost all private mines, in the early years the Ming Dynasty emperors were very interested in opening gold mines, but in the civil official group of the collective resistance, the cost of gold mining is far higher than the income, and finally had to give up, the Wanli Emperor still likes gold, most of his inner treasury gold is Yunnan tribute gold, in the folk, because of the use of the silver standard, the value of gold is underestimated, the people can not afford it, the rich people only use gold to make some jewelry items, the monetary value is very low, This led to the gold and silver ratio of the Ming Dynasty is also very low, since the opening of the sea in Longwan, a large amount of gold was exchanged by the Spaniards and the Portuguese Dutch for silver to Europe to be minted into gold coins, after the middle of the Wanli, a large amount of gold outflow, the gold ratio of the Ming Dynasty gradually increased, but at the end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, there was still a large amount of gold successfully replaced by the Europeans.

The small gold mine in Lingqiu does not produce much, but the scale of about 10,000 taels a year is much worse than that of Shandong Zhaoyuan, so it is not well-known.

"Mother, this is a gold bracelet inlaid with turquoise phoenix patterns, you wear it just to see." Zhang Han took out a pair of bracelets and put them on for Chang's with his own hands.

Women are born with no immunity to shiny things, even at Chang's age, and Chang's face is full of happy expressions when she wears a heavy and shiny gold bracelet on her hand.

For the two uncles is an okra pattern jade gold ornament, one for each person, the material is gorgeous, in line with Chang Jinquan's aesthetics, he is happy to accept it, Chang Jinyou pouted, with an expression that is not in his eyes.

Chang Wei was given a small pony whip with a golden handle, and Zhang Han said with a smile: "When I bought it, I didn't know that you were going to export it with me, this is an unpredictable prophet." ”

After such a meal, the relationship between Zhang Han and Chang Wei is close, in this era, the relatives are still the most reliable, Chang Wei looks smart, sensible, and sweet-mouthed, Zhang Han really likes this kid a little.

When giving it to Chang Ning, Zhang Han's face was a little shy, and he said: "The eldest sister is this peony leaf ornament, which should be worthy of you." ”

Chang Ning's face was slightly red, he took it, smiled lightly, and said, "Thank you big brother for having a heart." ”

Zhang Han made a joke in Lingqiu once, but this time he inquired about it, and gave his sister, even if it was a cousin's gold jewelry, it was okay.

This golden peony has five separate leaves, and in the middle is a huge golden leaf peony petal, golden and bright, the color is gorgeous, Chang Ning holds it in his hand, and the green onion leaf-like fingers are even more beautiful by the gold, Zhang Han has the heart to ask her to wear it, but she is not embarrassed.

A banquet of wine was eaten until three o'clock in the afternoon, the bell in the corner of the house rang three times, the banquet was scattered, Chang Jin and Chang Jin were all drunk, Chang Wei took people to help the two elders to rest, Chang Ning also went back to the inner house, Chang looked at Zhang Han, who was quite normal, and asked, "How is your eldest sister?" ”

Zhang Han pretended to be stupid and said, "What? ”

Chang Shi seemed to have a smile on his face, and said: "Ning'er has lived here for a long time, and many people already like her, and my mother asked your uncle to refuse, if you don't like it......"

Zhang Han is in a hurry, Chang Ning is such a heavenly and beautiful country, if he is not tempted, he is still a man in this world? Although I don't know much about people now, she looks quite demure and elegant, and her temperament seems to be assertive.

"Mother, this, that ......" Zhang Han was still cheeky, and after snorting a few times, he said categorically: "The eldest sister looks very good, I like it very much!" ”

Chang laughed, and after half a ring, he said: "I mentioned this matter to my second brother, and of course he agrees with it, but I don't know what the eldest brother means." ”

Zhang Han said: "What are the specific plans of the uncles now?" ”

Chang said: "They have been looking for a mansion in Xinpingbao, and they will move out after a while, I only teach them not to worry, the eldest brother is a nerd, you have a lot of books here, and there are many exquisite things, he is really not in a hurry, the second brother is in a hurry to move out and open the shop again, and then rely on our business name here to do business...... There are a lot of subtle things here, you can discuss with your second uncle, just ask him to make more money, you don't have to suffer too much, my Chang family also has five or six generations of business, but you don't have to suffer too much from your nephew. ”

"So the second uncle is dedicated to business, and the eldest uncle's interests are completely different from his?"

"yes." Chang sighed lightly: "If Ning'er is from your second uncle, this matter has already been calculated, the eldest brother's behavior has always been a little strange, I can't figure out his thoughts." ”

"Mother, you can rest assured." Zhang Han smiled and said: "Uncle's interest is actually miscellaneous learning, learning but not being able to use it, I'm afraid it is the reason for his weird temper, you don't call him to use it, I give him the opportunity to use it, so coax him, tell him to go or not, of course Sister Ning will stay." ”

"You have always been a little roundabout when you were a child, and when you grow up, you can't see that you are still cheeky." Chang smiled: "Go ahead with your business." ”

……

Zhang Han didn't dare to delay, the time was short, there were many things, and one by one he had to do it properly.

He went out first to the direction of the mule and horse line, the Jiang brothers and other six guards guarded the left and right behind him, Zhang Han knew that Yang Qiu also buried a hidden pile all the way, always pay attention to the movements on the street and suspicious faces, in addition, Xinping Fort is full of people Yang Qiu buys, businessmen from all over the country, passers-by, and those who visit relatives and friends, although Xinping Fort is a big fort, there are still a number of people who come in every day, Yang Qiu wants to try to grasp the overall situation, so that Zhang Han is good, and all the industries in Xinping Fort and Yusheng, It's basically safe.

The layout of the farther ones is also being done, but the time is too short, and there are too few people to use, and Yang Qiu is also a clever woman who has no rice to cook, so she can only take her time.
