[The second bullet on Monday, thinking about it, it is more reasonable to release it at 12 o'clock, eh, what, robbery! ] Collections, tickets, comments, rewards, everything]

The "Dawn" and "Jinfeng" and the two lucky ships left the Hulukou private port on their front and back feet.

Needless to say, Yang Dijiao's small fleet sent the first batch of 429 people to Niudao, and the "Dawn" was Chu Fan's gift to his sister.

Out of the private port, the four ships parted ways, and the "Shuguang" rode the southeast wind and went straight to Dagu in Tianjin.

In order for her sister not to be bullied in her husband's house, Chu Fan prepared an extremely rich dowry for her sister.

The bride price sent by Ding Yimo, except for picking some precious furs to make robes for the family, added boxes to Chu Qin's dowry almost unchanged; In addition, Chu Fan also made several sets of head and face jewelry for his sister, not to mention gold, silver, jade, and more than a dozen pearls, filling Chu Qin's eight treasure chests; Chu Fan also picked a lot of good things to add to Chu Qin's boxes for the congratulatory gifts on the wedding day, including the three-foot red coral given by Yang Dijiao, which is definitely at the level of an heirloom in the mainland!

The reason why he is so generous is not that Chu Fan wants to pretend to be forced to put on a score, but that the basis of the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law and between concubines in this era is still material - your dowry is richer, and your voice can be higher!

For Chu Fan's generosity, Ding Yimo is also both grateful and happy - Chu Qin's dowry is also his Ding Yimo's private money to a certain extent, to put it mildly, even if the Ding family declines in the future, someone will not be able to collect the dowry!

So looking at the large and small cages stuffed in the bilge of the "Dawn", with a total price of at least 10,000 taels of silver, Ding Yimo felt that he should talk to his brother-in-law, thank him well, and talk about business by the way.

Going up to the wet deck, Ding Yimo looked at the dark clouds that were spreading all over the sky, stretched out his hand and tried it, and after making sure that the rain had stopped in the morning, he stretched out his feet and stepped out, and walked straight to Chu Fan, who was standing alone on the bow of the boat.

"Yixian," Ding Yimo called softly, "What are you thinking?" ”

"Brother-in-law...... Ah, no...... What the! Chu Fan was awakened by Ding Yimo coldly, and replied with a dodgy gaze, which made Ding Yimo quite strange.

He didn't know that Chu Fan was thinking about the absurdity of last night just now.

Ding Yimo entered the cave room, and Chu Fan also entered the cave room!

It's just a matter of overthrowing the milk tea sister, the key is that Chu Fan can't even remember how many shots came last night, and the only thing that can remember the details is the one when the sky is about to dawn, but because he was in a hurry, Zhang was in a hurry to urge Chu Fan to go on the road in the yard.

What a pity!

The first time I came to this world, I was still with such a pure and lovely little beauty, and I was so confused that people couldn't find much aftertaste when they wanted to, it was really a tyrannical thing!

What made Chu Fan even more embarrassed was the sentence that Xian Cha came to his ear at breakfast and asked, "Who is Yan Ruxue?" …… You called that name many times last night. ”

In a panic, Chu Fan almost knocked over the porridge bowl - holding a girl but calling another girl's name, is there anything more stupid in the world?

Fortunately, when Chu Fan turned his head to look over, he found that the narrow expression on Xiancha's face was more sad and vinegar, and she didn't wait for Chu Fan to react, she turned around after smiling.

But now that Chu Fan thinks about it, he can still deeply feel the sourness and helplessness in the idle tea talk and in his eyes, alas! The blessings of Qi people are not easy to enjoy!

As soon as his thoughts turned, Chu Fan felt that he should really be grateful for this evil feudal society - if it was put in the future generations, he would call another woman's name and try it?

Seeing that he was absent-minded, Ding Yimo thought that Chu Fan was drinking too much wine last night, so he didn't speak, and stood silently beside him.

It wasn't until Chu Fan came back to his senses that he said to Ding Yimo in a bright voice, "Brother-in-law, thinking about things is out of my mind, rude, rude!" After that, Ding Yimo smiled and asked, "Drinking too much?" ”

Of course, Chu Fan got off the donkey and nodded in acknowledgement.

Ding Yimo then expressed his words of thanks tactfully, and Chu Fan followed with a polite expression, and then he got to the point.

Ding Yimo said that he had already read the articles of association of the East India Company, and since he was doing business, his brothers still had to settle accounts, let alone his uncle? So he told Chu Fan that after he returned to Zunhua, he would definitely recommend it to his father and strive to get money to buy shares.

Chu Fan said that it doesn't matter whether he buys shares or not, the key is that the Ding family's dozen or so shops along the canal will be the key point for the sale of fairy grass cigarettes in the future; Of course, it is best to take shares, so that the motivation will be greatly improved; It doesn't matter if you don't buy shares, as a regional agent, Chu Fan believes that Ding Yimo will soon see the huge profits of cigarettes, and he is not afraid that he will not go all out to promote.

In addition, Chu Fan also made a request to Ding Yimo, that is, to ask Ding Yimo to borrow a few of his skilled hands in managing accounts - Chu Fan's stall has a lot of people, but there are almost no people who can manage accounts, not to mention the wealth and power, and Chu Fan always feels unreliable when it is handed over to outsiders, and it is serious to ask a few people who know the roots from the Ding family.

"No problem!" Ding Yimo agreed with a smile, "You don't need to ask my father about this, I can call the shots...... I'll call you three people over first, they're all old ones! ”

After talking about business, Ding Yimo was about to return to the cabin to accompany Chu Qin, but was stopped by Chu Fan, "Brother-in-law, after you go home this time, where are you going to place my sister?" ”

Ding Yimo was stunned for a moment - Chu Fan asked this, although it was a little rude, but it was also the proper meaning of the question.

"Of course it's at Zunhua's house!" He replied without thinking about it, "Is it possible to let your sister follow me to suffer in Zhangjiawan?" ”

His arrangement was the most standard of the era - men earned money as laymen, and women served their in-laws at home.

Unexpectedly, Chu Fan grabbed his sleeve and said, "Brother-in-law, listen to my advice...... Million! Don't let my sister live with you in Zhangjiawan! ”

"Why?" Ding Yimo was stunned.

"Brother-in-law, you have to believe me, it's hard to say now...... But a year later you'll know why. Of course, Chu Fan can't say that the Tartars will enter the fortress next year, and the surrounding area of Beijing will be slaughtered into a blank field, and it will be easier for Zhangjiawan with convenient transportation to escape than Zunhua in the north—if he dares to say this, God knows what kind of demon Ding Yimo will see him.

To put it mildly, Chu Fan finally asked Ding Yimo to agree to take Chu Qin to live in Zhangjiawan for a year, and after repeatedly reassuring Chu Fan, Ding Yimo got up and went back to the cabin, but he thought about Chu Fan's intentions in his heart: Could it be that this kid is afraid that he will steal his mouth in Zhangjiawan and let his sister stare at it?

After arriving at Dagukou, the "Shuguang" could not enter the inland river, so it had to change to a boat and continue to march towards Zhangjiawan.

When he arrived in Zhangjiawan, Chu Fan accompanied Ding Yimo and his wife to Zunhua, which was considered to be the completion of the send-off.

Chu Fan only stayed in Zunhua for two days, and then got up and rushed to Beijing.

He had long wanted to visit Xu Guangqi, the teacher.
