Chapter 46: Zhao Junren
"Dad, I'm back, is the meal ready? Starve me to death. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info" Zhao Junren shouted in his mouth, strode into the house, and when he saw Jiang Yun, he couldn't help but say: "Little brother, wake up?" ”
Jiang Yun has been talking with Father Zhao for more than an hour, and he has a general understanding of the environment in Yizhou, and he is wondering how to get the entry and exit permits, so he can go back early. When I was worried, when I saw Zhao Junren walking into the house, I couldn't help but stand up and salute: "Little brother Jiang Yun, thank you Brother Zhao for taking a righteous action to save my life." ”
I've seen it from afar before, but now when I look closer, I feel a little different. Zhao Junren has a delicate face, but compared with Jiang Yun's thin and delicate demeanor, he has a little more perseverance and handsomeness.
In the words of later generations, Jiang Yun belongs to Xiao Xianrou, and Zhao Junren is a full man, as his name suggests, not bad at all.
In terms of Jiang Yun's natural cognition, as long as he is more handsome than him, none of them are good! It's all paper tigers, targets that must be defeated! But Zhao Junren is different, even if he throws away the identity of a life-saving benefactor, Jiang Yun can't find the slightest fault with his appearance, this kind of health, self-confidence, peace, and kindness from his temperament will make people involuntarily feel close.
"Don't, in this outer land, the most superfluous thing is these false gifts." Zhao Junren threw the bamboo basket full of fish behind him in the corner, walked to the table by himself, poured a glass of water, drank it all and wiped his mouth casually with his cuffs, and said: "If you really want to thank me, take care of your body earlier, and find some work, and when you earn some money, you can pay me back the medicine fee." ”
Dao is a real person, Jiang Yun smiled when he heard this: "This is nature. ”
An unintentional remark made Jiang Yun worry again. A moment ago, he was still figuring out how to get out of here, but now that he thinks about it, how to survive here first is the top priority, right?
What's the most painful thing in the world? The people are gone, the money is gone...
What is the most painful thing in the world? The people are still there, the money is gone...
Well, he's got both. All his belongings were left in the county office, but he couldn't go back when he came to Yizhou, God knows which bastard he would get cheaper in the end with his hard-earned money!
Silver is still secondary, and what hurts Jiang Yun the most is that the only thing that Zhu'er left him, the money bag, has also fallen.
Forget it, if you think about it for a long time, let's think about how to make some money first. Being a rice worm with peace of mind is not his style.
Li Junren glanced at Jiang Yun and couldn't help but be happy when he saw him with his head down and a troubled look on his face. "I said, don't take it seriously, just talk about it, how can I really ask you to ask for money. If this were the case, wouldn't my act of kindness, which even touched me, become a transaction? Brother Jiang, you can live in peace, I can prick a fork more, and it will be enough to take care of your mouth. ”
"Come, eat." Father Zhao walked in from outside the door with dishes, placed them on the wooden table one by one, and greeted: "Xiao Jiang, you are weak, this fish is warm, suitable for you, eat more, just like your own home, you are polite." ”
"I'm hungry, so I'll use it first, Brother Jiang, you can do it yourself!" Zhao Junren grabbed a night's white rice, took two bites in a row, and said vaguely: "Dad, please clear the fish today, take advantage of the good weather in the past two days, dry the fish, and wait until the end of the month, I will take it to Lufu together." ”
"Okay, you eat yours." Father Zhao answered, picked up the fish basket, turned around and walked outside the house.
"Don't you eat?"
Zhao Junren pursed his lips and said, "My father has a weak stomach and doesn't usually eat dinner." Brother Jiang, come, you can taste this fish, it tastes good, and it doesn't have thorns. ”
"Okay." Jiang Yun took a piece of fish meat and put it in his mouth and chewed it, looked at Zhao Junren and asked, "Brother Zhao, what is the Lu Mansion you just said?" ”
"Of course, it's the Lu family, one of the three major families in Yizhou, this is Shuibei, just on the land of the Lu family." Zhao Junren stuffed two more mouthfuls of rice as he spoke, chewed it twice at will, swallowed it, and continued: "Our family has been doing things for the Lu Mansion since the sixth generation of our ancestors, and the fish in the whole house are all called by our family. ”
"So, you're from the Lu Mansion?" When Jiang Yun heard this, his expression moved.
"Not really." Lu Junren held chopsticks in his mouth, thought for a while, and said: "It's just responsible for sending fish to them, and going to Lu Mansion to trade at the end of each month, this is an errand handed down by the ancestors, and it has been sent for a long time, and it is somewhat affectionate, and Lu Fu also takes care of us, unless the fish we send out is not enough, they generally don't ask other families to buy it." Well, I guess it's a relationship between old customers. ”
"Then dare to ask Brother Zhao, is there a way to get an entry and exit permit from the Lu Mansion?"
Zhao Junren smiled: "You also know this?" But Brother Jiang, I'm afraid you're going to be disappointed. Not to mention that it is impossible for our family to get it, even most of the Lu family members can't do it. Access permits were only granted to caravans under the direct jurisdiction of the family's upper echelons. My father should have told you the general situation, but there are some things that he may not know. ”
Zhao Junren picked up the bowl, took a sip of fish soup, and continued: "The three major families are in charge of half of Yizhou, with the Mushui River as the boundary, so that they can be peaceful. This will inevitably cause all-out competition between the major families, and it is very likely to lead to a rekindling of war in Yizhou, and once the war starts, it is not that it can be stopped, if the Shanyue people take advantage of the loophole, no one can afford the consequences. ”
"I know this, my husband has already told me in detail."
"Herein lies the problem." Zhao Junren smiled and said: "The Lu family is the first family in Yizhou, but the ancestors of the Lu family are extremely kind, for other families who come to settle in Yizhou, not only will they not suppress it, but they will try to help them, it is in this situation that the Yang and Li families can develop and grow, and with today's scale and status, they are even on an equal footing with the Lu family." With the precedent of the Lu family, no one dares to openly suppress other families, otherwise wouldn't it seem petty and make people poke their backbones? The big family has a good face, and no one will do this. But now in this situation, no more big families with the ability to disrupt the balance are allowed. Therefore, the three families still will not suppress the development of other families on the surface, but secretly they firmly control the right to enter and exit Yizhou. ”
"Control the rest of the family population? Don't let them go out and call friends? Jiang Yun was stunned for a moment, slightly disdainful, and this pattern was too small.
"This is one thing, and the main thing is to control the import of materials, especially gunpowder."
Jiang Yun suddenly said: "This can make sense." No matter how the other families develop, in the plain area of Yibei, as long as there are no firearms, it is absolutely impossible to compete with the three major families. ”
"Well, it's good that you know. Therefore, the entry and exit proves that you don't think about it, you can't get it. This thing can be said to be directly linked to firearms, who has this thing, will have the opportunity to smuggle firearms from the Great Zhou into the country, you say the three major families can be cautious? It is impossible to get it unless you trust someone absolutely. ”
Hey, this trouble seems to be far more troublesome than you think!
"Alright, I'm done." Zhao Junren burped, stood up, picked up the harpoon and said, "Brother Jiang use it slowly, rest early after eating, I'll go out." ”
"Huh?" Jiang Yun was stunned and said, "Do you want to go out fishing so late?" ”
"Yes, the fish caught during the day are all dried fish, and I can't buy them for a few dollars. In the evening, you have the opportunity to catch some high-priced fresh fish. ”
"Brother Zhao is very short of money?" Jiang Yun couldn't help but sigh with emotion, the model workers didn't fight like you!
"Yes." Zhao Junren nodded, his expression darkened slightly, and after telling "rest early", he turned around and walked out of the door. "Dad, I'm going out, Brother Jiang, you can help take care of it."
"Okay, you go, I'm at home." Daddy Zhao's voice came from afar.
Short on money? It seems that I really have to find a way to make some money and spend it, and send some to the Zhao family by the way, and the right to repay the favor. But then again, are the old Zhao and the two so short of money?
Jiang Yun's curiosity was aroused.
