Li Xiang looked pensive, he suddenly thought of a very important question, after the Southern Song Dynasty, Jiangnan became the economic, cultural and political center of the country, with the rapid development of ocean trade, the commerce of the Southern Song Dynasty appeared unprecedented prosperity, and early capitalist production relations began to appear, and the total economic output of the Southern Song Dynasty alone accounted for 50% of the world.

After the great emancipation of the merchants, with the rapid development of the ocean-going trade, the merchants not only obtained countless pearls and agate and other huge wealth, but also used this wealth to buy great power.

Li Xiang secretly thought, after changing himself, what will he do next after gaining huge wealth and great power?

Li Xiang was taken aback by this idea, but immediately, he laughed dumbly, no matter how powerful the Wen family is, it is only a merchant family after all, can it still fight the emperor? I'm thinking too much.

Unexpectedly, when Li Xiang went out to play the next day, he met the Zhang family again, but this time it was not the son of the Zhang family.

It turned out that the carriages of both sides were coming towards each other, but this street could not accommodate two carriages in the wrong way.

The other party's attitude of driving the car was very bad, and the coachman said loudly to Li Xiang: "If you don't get out of the way quickly, this is the carriage of the Zhang family, if the second lady is unhappy, you will be guilty!" ”

Hearing that the other party's carriage was the carriage of the Zhang family, although he didn't know who was in the carriage, Li Xiang didn't want to weaken his name and retreat half a step, although the Zhang family was powerful, he Li Xiang was not easy to bully.

Li Xiang got out of the carriage, walked forward, and when he walked to the Zhang family's carriage, he arched his hand and said loudly: "Under Li Xiang, I don't know which person from the Zhang family is in the car?" ”

It's just that there was no sound coming out of the Zhang family's carriage, and no one came out of the carriage, Li Xiang frowned lightly, and said secretly, what a big shelf!

Before Li Xiang could say anything more, he saw a man in a green shirt with a proud face walking out of the side, pointing at Li Xiang and reprimanding: "I don't care if you are Li Xiang or Li Bai, since you know that it is my Zhang family's carriage, why don't you make way for my master quickly, and if you are slow for a moment, I will send you to the yamen!" ”

Li Xiang sneered very angrily, and before he could speak, he saw that this man who was obviously a member of the Zhang family continued: "Look at your clothes are also bright, don't be ignorant, hurry up and give way, my master still has urgent things to do, don't delay my master's precious time!" ”

It's really a dog fighting people, a slave of the Zhang family is so superior, and his words are arrogant, which shows how the behemoth of the Zhang family is powerful and blessed on weekdays.

Li Xiang's face was covered with frost, and he reached out and snatched the horsewhip from Zhao second-hand on the side, and with one whip, he whipped it in the face of the arrogant Zhang family slave in front of him.

Then, before the slave could react, the horsewhip swept through a line and slapped him in the face. Under the severe pain on his face, the slave of the Zhang family screamed miserably, staggered, fell to the ground, covered the left side of his face with his right hand that was severely whipped by Li Xiang, pointed at Li Xiang, and shouted with disbelief: "You, you dare to beat me!" He didn't know why the other party knew that he was the Zhang family, but he dared to do such a barbaric act, and it was up to the owner to beat the dog, wasn't he afraid of retaliation from the Zhang family!

Li Xiang's whip was whipped extremely hard, and blood flowed out from the gap between the five fingers of the right hand of the slave who was covering the left side of his face, and then half of his face flowed down his fingers and cheeks, and his face looked a little hideous.

In the carriage, Huan'er had already poked her head out to see the excitement, and when she saw this bloody scene, she couldn't help but let out a low voice, looking a little scared. But although there is timidity, there is a trace of happiness in her heart, the little girl doesn't know why she feels like this, probably proud of Li Xiang's toughness.

Because the horsewhip was stained with the blood of the slave of the Zhang family, Li Xiang threw the horsewhip on the ground in disgust, spat on it, and said disdainfully: "Why don't I dare to beat you, to be a dog, you have to know the dog's proportions, the master speaks, why do you need this dog to come out and lick it." ”

The slave of the Zhang family was obviously forced by Li Xiang's momentum, and he stared at him and didn't dare to make any more nonsense.

Li Xiang no longer looked at the Zhang family slave who was smacked by him and collapsed on the ground, and said sarcastically to the Zhang family carriage that seemed a little quiet: "Li has taught this dog slave a lesson for Your Excellency, I wonder if Your Excellency can come out and see it?" He was a little curious about who the Zhang family was in the carriage, he actually played such a "big name", the dogs were beaten, but he still didn't move, this patience did make Li Xiang admire, could it be that there were any talented people in the Zhang family? No, if it is a talented person, he must know how to act in a low-key manner, but the servants of the Zhang family are so arrogant, which is in stark contrast to the silence in the carriage.

Oh, just when Li Xiang was secretly frowning, the curtain of the carriage on the opposite side was finally opened, and a woman bent out of him.

Li Xiang's eyes gathered, and he thought that he was immovable, the "talented" person was actually a young girl, and her slightly green figure and face showed that she was only fifteen or sixteen years old.

When he saw the smear of food at the corner of the girl's mouth, Li Xiang smiled dumbly, it turned out that he was hiding in the car and eating, no wonder he didn't have time to come out.

Before Li Xiang could speak, the Zhang family slave who collapsed to the ground and had just been whipped by Li Xiang saw that his master had finally come out, and like a fly finding a rotten egg, he crawled forward and cried: "Second Miss, this is the person, not only did not let our carriage pass, but also insulted our Zhang family, and the villain retorted and was beaten badly. It doesn't matter if the villain is injured, it can't weaken the reputation of our Zhang family! After speaking, he pointed to the whip mark on the left side of his face.

Li Xiang was stunned, he didn't expect this slave of the Zhang family to be so "able to talk back", reversing black and white, and he was a little admired in his heart, and it didn't seem to be completely unreal, at least this ability to reverse black and white is good.

Zhang Wan glanced at Zhang San who was beaten in disgust, but secretly relieved her hatred in her heart, this Zhang San has been in the house with the favor of the eldest sister on weekdays, even she, the second lady of the Zhang family, is not in her eyes, making small reports, reversing black and white is a common thing, if it weren't for Uncle Zhang, who drove him on weekdays, went home to save his relatives, I'm afraid that this arrogant slave would not "deign" to be a coachman for him.

It's just that the eldest sister sent Zhang Sanlai really just to be a simple coachman, I'm afraid there is also the responsibility of surveillance!

She is used to being weak on weekdays, and she has always cared not much about the property at home, but she doesn't care, it doesn't mean that others don't care, especially the eldest sister, as if she is afraid that she will rob the property, relying on her father's favor, in charge of the finances of the house, and the expenses of her sister, who are concubines, can be described as "tight" abnormal.

But after all, she doesn't want to compete with the eldest sister, and she has no right to compete with the eldest sister from the big house. Just today, as soon as I returned to my hometown Chongqing Mansion from Lin'an, I heard that Sister Shiya, who had always loved her when she was a child, was actually interested in someone.
