Bai Junwan followed Zhou Zhong into the room, and then after the two of them sat down, she spoke: "Zhou Gongzi, I heard Sister Bang'er say that you are going to live overseas for a while?" ”

"Yes, because of some things, we have to leave for a while, but you don't have to worry, there will still be people left behind in the Zhou Mansion, and you can still live in the inner house, and if you need anything, you can also order the people to do it." Zhou Chong said with a smile, since the Bai sisters have already paid the rent, then he can't drive the people out of Lu, not to mention that the other party has a good relationship with Aunt Wang and Bang'er, so Zhou Chong also has arrangements for them.

However, after Bai Junwan heard Zhou Chong's words, her face showed hesitation, Bei Yan gently bit her red lip, and after a while before she spoke: "Zhou Gongzi, although I know that my next words are very presumptuous, I still want to beg you once, can you take our sisters away?" ”

"You...... You're going too? Zhou Zhong said with some surprise, but then he was a little embarrassed, because there are too many secrets on the side of the Chamber of Commerce, and it is okay for their family to live there, but the Bai sisters are outsiders, if they are allowed to live in it, I am afraid it will bring some inconvenience to the Chamber of Commerce.

Bai Junwan saw the embarrassed look on Zhou Chong's face, and hurriedly explained: "Master Zhou, we don't want to stick to you all the time, as long as you can send us to Shuangyu Port, then we will find ships to go to other countries, and we will never trouble Gongzi again." ”

"To other countries?" Zhou Chong looked at Bai Junwan with some surprise when he heard this, and then asked, "Okay, Daming, don't you stay." Why do you want to go to other countries? And do you know what is going on in other countries? ”

"This ......" Bai Junwan also hesitated for a while after hearing this. However, the most reluctant still said, "Zhou Gongzi doesn't know, our sisters also have their own hardships, Daming no longer has a foothold for us, staying here in the past has brought a certain danger to the Zhou Mansion, only when we go overseas, can we have a glimmer of life." And no one will be implicated again! ”

Seeing Bai Junwan's face full of sad expressions when she talked about the worst of the worst, Zhou Chong couldn't help but feel moved in his heart, and wanted to open his mouth and promise to take the other party to Shuangyu Port, after all, she had already said that when they got there, their sisters would leave and would not trouble themselves again, but when he thought of the overseas situation, he couldn't help but feel soft in his heart, and asked again: "Mrs. Bai." If you want to go to Shuangyu Port, I can take you there. But I would like to ask you, which country do you plan to go to in the future? ”

Hearing Zhou Chong ask this question again, Bai Junwan also hesitated, they just wanted to escape from the city as soon as possible, and they didn't seriously think about where they wanted to flee to, so they saw that she thought about it for a while before replying: "We don't know the way, but we can do it anywhere, as long as we leave the Ming Dynasty, we don't have to worry about being caught up." ”

When she said this, Bai Junwan also showed a very reluctant expression on her face, if she hadn't been forced to be helpless, how could the two sisters want to go overseas, and the two of them were weak women, so they fled to other countries, God knows what kind of experience Lu Dao would have? But they have already been prepared, if there is a glimmer of life overseas, then raise Qingqing, but if someone wants to bully them, it will be a big deal and death.

Zhou Zhong was even more sure at this time that the Bai sisters were definitely not ordinary people, but he was not good at asking this question, so he chuckled after listening to the other party's words and said, "Wa Guo? North Korea? Nanyang? You are thinking too simply, and I bet that if you go so recklessly to these countries, with the beauty of your sisters, there are probably only two ways, one is to die in chastity, and the other is to become the confinement of the local magnates. ”

"For what, every time the Central Plains is in turmoil, aren't there many people who go out to sea by boat to live in these countries?" Hearing what Zhou Zhong said so bluntly, Bai Junwan couldn't help but blush, but she still asked a little unwillingly. She was well-read and knew a little about everything, so after offending the big man, she wanted to flee overseas.

"Hehe, you don't know the situation of overseas countries at all, for example, take the Japanese country you said as an example, you must have heard of the Japanese invaders, the reason why these Japanese invaders are formed is because the Japanese are constantly at war now, and almost the whole country is at war, and you two weak women go there, it is simply to die."

Speaking of this, Zhou Zhong paused for a moment, and then said: "As for North Korea, although there is no war now, it is a faint king, and this king of North Korea is lustful and wantonly searches for beautiful women in the country, if you sisters go there, it will be even more sheep, some time ago I destroyed the two chambers of commerce of the Japanese and the Koreans in Shuangyu Port, it is because of these beasts who abducted and sold the women and children of my Ming Dynasty, do you still want to go now?" ”

After listening to Zhou Chong's introduction to the Japanese Kingdom and North Korea, Bai Junwan also shuddered, she really didn't expect the Japanese Kingdom and North Korea to be in such a mess, fortunately she met Zhou Chong and knew the situation of the two countries in advance, otherwise if she broke in without knowing it, the consequences would be really unimaginable.

But then Bai Junwan reported the last glimmer of hope and asked: "The Japanese Kingdom and North Korea are not good, what about Nanyang, I heard that many people from the Central Plains live there, we should be able to go there, right?" ”

Zhou Zhong sneered and said: "You don't even want to think about Nanyang, there are many native kingdoms there, and there is no royal law at all, you two weak women want to live there, it is simply wishful thinking, not to mention that I have already obtained accurate information, the Franc machine people in the extreme west have arrived in Nanyang, and there is a fierce conflict with the local natives, if nothing else, there will soon be wars, so even if you reach Nanyang, you will not be able to live in peace for a few years." ”

At this time, Bai Junwan was completely desperate, and her beautiful face also showed a little gray, as if the whole person had lost all hope at once, and even her beautiful eyes were a little dead.

Seeing Bai Junwan's desperate appearance, Zhou Chong couldn't help but sigh and said: "Madam Bai, I know that you have offended a big person, but Da Ming is so big, as long as your sisters find a place to hide, are you still afraid of being found?" ”

For the comfort, Bai Junwan shook her head sadly and said: "It's useless, although Da Ming is big, there is no place for our sisters, and when we lived in the Zhou Mansion before, it actually brought a great risk to the Zhou Mansion, and the slave family here made amends to Zhou Gongzi!" ”

Bai Junwan said that after the most embarrassing, she stood up and saluted Zhou Chong, and then turned around to leave, just looking at her lost soul, it was really unbearable.

"Wait a minute, Madam Bai, you are well-read, don't you know how to do arithmetic?" Zhou Chong suddenly said at this time, he and the Bai sisters met twice, and they were also fated to each other, plus their sisters and Aunt Wang and Bang'er also talked very well, so Zhou Chong really couldn't bear to watch the two sisters go to a dead end, so he wanted to give each other a way out.

"Arithmetic?" Bai Junwan was a little puzzled when she heard this, but she still replied, "I naturally know how to do arithmetic." ”

"That's okay, our Chamber of Commerce will definitely develop next year, and now there is a shortage of manpower in all aspects, if you know how to do arithmetic, then follow us to the Chamber of Commerce and help Sanniang manage the finances of the Chamber of Commerce." Zhou Chong opened his mouth and said, he knew that Bai Junwan was a woman with great self-esteem, even if she lived in the inner house before, she still insisted on supporting a family of three with her own embroidery, so Zhou Chongcai proposed to let her go to the Chamber of Commerce to help Sanniang, so that she would be more acceptable.

However, Bai Junwan obviously hadn't reacted at this time, and said a little stunned: "But...... But arithmetic is not the same as settling accounts, and I don't know much about settling accounts. ”

Zhou Chong smiled when he heard this: "Although arithmetic and accounting are a little different, the foundation is the same, then you can follow Sanniang to learn more, and Miss Bai and Qingqing can also go together, then they are all family members of the Chamber of Commerce, and it is justifiable to live in the Chamber of Commerce." ”

At this time, Bai Junwan finally reacted, knowing that this was Zhou Zhong helping herself, which made her grateful, and she wanted to say something thankful with tears, but she didn't know what to say.

"Okay, I don't need to say thank you, you can hurry up and pack your things, we're going to leave tonight." Zhou Zhong also knew that Bai Junwan's self-esteem was very strong, and it was the first time he had seen her cry in front of people, as for what words of thanks, it was really a little difficult for her, so he asked her to prepare things.

"Well, Gongzi Zhou, you are a good person!" Bai Junwan also found that she was really a little out of shape at this time, and after hearing Zhou Chong's words, she also wiped her tears, and then said very gratefully. However, her words made Zhou Zhong a little speechless, he didn't expect that he had helped the other party so much, and he only got a good person card.

Bai Junwan wiped her tears out of Zhou Chong's yard, and hurriedly went back to pack her luggage, Zhou Zhong shook his head a little self-deprecating after sending the other party away, his own troubles were enough, and the Bai sisters' troubles were nothing.

At dusk, all the people in the Zhou Mansion packed up their salutes, and Steward Xu also hired a few big carriages, and everyone drove in the direction of Qingcun Port in the carriage. However, not all the family is gone, so Wangcai stayed with the guards of the two chambers of commerce, after all, the mansion also needs someone to take care of it. In addition, Wu Shan has also been renting in the mansion, and he also promised to help Wangcai take care of the Zhou Mansion during Zhou Chong's absence.

When Zhou Zhong came to Qingcun Port with his family, the ship sent by the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce was already waiting on the port, so the whole family got on the boat, but the Miss Jinxuan had not yet arrived, so she waited until it was completely dark, and then saw an ordinary carriage coming to the port from a distance, and then slowly stopped at the bow of Zhou Chong's ship.
