Zhang Mingxia saw that Wickham got into the carriage and didn't come out, so he opened the curtain of the carriage a little strangely: "Brother Zihan, what's the matter?" ”

Zhang Mingxia, the bad guy, Wickham scolded in his heart, and then turned his head a little annoyed and said: "The two girls in the car are frightened, I am shocking them, is there anything wrong with you?" ”

Zhang Mingxia saw that Wickham's expression was a little distorted, and he was very puzzled, and when he turned his head, it turned out that the two girls were little beauties, so he understood what was going on, and laughed a few times embarrassedly: "It's okay...... It's okay, it's just that the carriage has been blocking the middle of the road, and the driver in the carriage behind us asked if we could go? ”

Ye Shihan said with some worry when she heard this: "Our carriage jumped out after the horse was frightened, and we ...... Won't drive a carriage. "Besides, it is also an extremely inappropriate thing for a lady to show up.

With such a good opportunity to perform, Wickham naturally would not let it go, and hurriedly patted his chest and said, "Miss Ye, please rest assured, we will help you." ”

Then, Wickham turned his head and whispered to Zhang Mingxia: "Brother Mingxia, can you drive a car, the younger brother can only ride a horse, and he has never learned to drive a car." ”

Zhang Mingxia couldn't cry or laugh a little, and said with a bitter face: "I will, Brother Zihan, you can rest assured." ”

After listening to Zhang Mingxia's answer, Wickham breathed a sigh of relief, driving a carriage in England is something inferior people do, and Wickham's predecessor was a promising young man who graduated from Cambridge University, so he naturally disdained to learn this skill. So Wickham didn't find the skill to drive a carriage in his memory

。 After the two big men sat outside the carriage, Wickham asked into the carriage, "By the way, Miss Ye, where are you going?" ”

"Thank you Lin Gongzi for your help, you can go to Dafeng Commercial Bank." Ye Shihan's cowardly soft voice came out of the carriage, and Wickham's heart rippled again.

God is fair to everyone, and what you gain is what you lose. The three advantages of body, appearance and voice are rarely concentrated in a woman's body, and some girls are very beautiful, but their voices are as prohibitive as scalpers. Some girls have very sweet voices, but their looks are good enough to be sorry for the audience, Wickham, who has been in college for four years, has a deep understanding of this, and there are too few girls like Ye Shihan who have all three.

Wickham said happily to Zhang Mingxia: "Brother Mingxia, did you hear it, go to Dafeng Commercial Bank." Zhang Mingxia was a little depressed in his heart, thinking that no matter how he looked at it, he looked like a subordinate of a carriage.

After hearing the four words of Dafeng Commercial Bank, Zhang Mingxia asked with some hesitation: "Dafeng Commercial Bank?" Isn't this business firm the one that Ye Laosi is in charge of? Hey, Miss Ye, do you know Ye Wensheng of Dafeng Commercial Bank? ”

Ye Shihan replied two meters, and the little maid in the carriage hurriedly said: "The fourth young master is the brother of our young lady, what do you say our young lady is doing in Dafeng Commercial Bank?" ”

Wickham and Zhang Mingxia glanced at each other, both of them had a look of surprise in their eyes, they didn't expect that they could save Ye Wensheng's sister by saving someone casually on the street, it was really fate.

Zhang Mingxia laughed and raised his horsewhip: "Miss Ye, I am your fourth brother's friend, and we are about to go to Dafeng Commercial Bank to find your brother." ”

"Huh?"

In the backyard of Dafeng Commercial Bank, a young man in a long robe held a Miao knife used by the Qi family army back then, and was studying a set of knife techniques attentively.

If there were people who practiced martial arts, it would soon be clear that the sword technique practiced by this young man with an elegant atmosphere was not a fitness technique, but a killing technique in the army. The knife technique seems simple but extremely powerful, and the moves are aimed at the opponent's vital point. It is conceivable that if that sharp Miao knife were slashed at a person's body, even if it was not a corpse on the spot, he would be seriously injured.

This young man is Ye Wensheng, one of the four great families of the Thirteen Elements - the fourth young master of the Ye family. This Ye Wensheng is not simple, he was only nineteen years old and passed the examination, which is rare in the whole of Guangdong. It's just strange that after the fourth young master of the Ye family passed the examination, he did not go to Beijing to take the examination, but began to take over part of the family business, and he has also done well in the past few years.

However, it is a pity that although the fourth young master of the Ye family is capable and talented, he is the concubine of the Ye family, as long as the eldest son has no accident, then the Ye family's family business will not have his share.

An old man walked quickly to the backyard and said respectfully to the young man: "Fourth young master, the young lady's carriage has arrived at the back door of the trading house, but the person who drove the carriage is not a subordinate in the house, and sitting next to the coachman is a blonde and blue-eyed man. ”

Ye Wensheng's hand shook, and he stuck the knife on the floor with a "bang", and said gloomily: "What the hell is going on?" Can't wait for Madame's side to make a move? Ye Shihan is his half-sister, since their biological mother passed away, he and his sister have relied on each other for their lives, struggling to survive in the Ye family's mansion.

The old man walked over, forcefully pulled the Miao knife out of the ground, and then inserted the knife back into the scabbard with an expressionless face: "Young Master, anger will not only solve anything, but will also make you lose accurate judgment!" ”

Ye Wensheng solemnly took the Miao knife and hung it on the belt under the robe: "Fu Bo, I was impulsive just now. "Fu Bo was the subordinate of Ye Wensheng's mother who married back then, and he almost watched their brother and sister grow up, so Ye Wensheng did not regard Fu Bo as a subordinate, but an elder who could be trusted.

Ye Wensheng's attitude of changing his mistakes made Fu Bo feel relieved, and his voice softened: "Madame will not do this kind of thing, after all, her identity is there, there is no need to make a black hand to a little girl, she is still waiting for Miss Yong to marry the Pan family." The other is that the Liangguang Governor's Mansion and the Customs Superintendent Sheng pay close attention to the Yi people, and the lady will not get involved with those Yi people, so the two people outside should have other purposes here. As for whether the young lady is okay, the young master will know when he goes out to see. ”

Ye Wensheng calmed down and thought about it, it was indeed as Fu Bo said, just now he was concerned and chaotic, and his worry about his sister made him lose his bearings.

Ye Wensheng opened the back door, looked up, and shouted in surprise: "Brother Mingxia, why are you?" Zhang Mingxia jumped down from the carriage with a big grin: "Why can't it be me, are you kid just looking forward to my accident?" Ye Wensheng scratched his head a little embarrassed: "Last year, there was a big search in Guangzhou City, who knows what happened to you." ”

At this time, Ye Shihan got out of the carriage with the support of the little maid and hugged Ye Wensheng's arm affectionately: "Brother! You have to thank Lin Gongzi and Zhang Gongzi, if they hadn't saved me, you wouldn't have seen your sister now! ”

Ye Wensheng looked at the strange foursome with some strange eyes, and asked suspiciously, "What the hell is going on with you?" ”

Zhang Mingxia laughed, and walked into the yard with a familiar car: "It's not a good place to talk outside, let's talk about it inside, or Wensheng, your kid is not even willing to let us drink tea." ”

Ye Wensheng also felt that there were many people on the street, not to mention that Zhang Mingxia was still a wanted criminal in the imperial court, and his identity was sensitive. Then he said, "Yes, please come with me." After saying that, he glanced at Wickham meaningfully.

Ye Shihan smiled at Wickham, saluted, and walked towards the inner house in the depths of the courtyard. She is an unmarried girl, and even if she is bold, she does not dare to contact a strange man, even if that person is her savior. Wickham looked at the figure of Miaoman in the distance, and felt a little lost in his heart.

In the main hall in the backyard, Zhang Mingxia briefly introduced the identity of Wickham, and then told Ye Wensheng the ins and outs of the matter, Ye Wensheng only knew that the gentle Yiren not only saved his friend Zhang Mingxia in Nanyang, but also subdued the crazy horse just now and saved his little sister.

"Lin Gongzi's great kindness, Wen Sheng can't repay it!" Ye Wensheng stood up as he said and gave Wickham a big salute.

Wickham hurriedly helped Ye Wensheng up, and said embarrassedly: "Ye Gongzi is serious, whoever encounters that situation will help." ”

Hearing Wickham's pure official words, Ye Wensheng was a little surprised: "I didn't expect Lin Gongzi's official words to be so good!" Wickham was a little helpless, since coming to Guangzhou, all the Chinese who have come into contact with him will be amazed by his fluent Chinese, who knows that he is a real Chinese? Wickham didn't say such an unbelievable thing as crossing over, but repeated his words about Zhang Mingxia.

Ye Wensheng said with some joy: "It turns out that Lin Gongzi and I Hongmen still have such a relationship, and now they have rescued Brother Mingxia and my little sister successively, this is the will of God." "Wickham had already guessed that Ye Wensheng and the Hongmen Relationship Department were simple, otherwise he would not be so familiar with Zhang Mingxia. It's just that he doesn't know what role Ye Wensheng is in Hongmen, and he doesn't want to know.

Zhang Mingxia took a sip of tea, and then said to Ye Wensheng: "Brother Ye, today I brought Brother Zihan to find you, and I have a deal to hand over to you." When Brother Zihan docked at Penang Island in Nanyang, he happened to buy a batch of fine rosewood, a total of 150 rosewood, I wonder if you can eat this batch of goods? ”

"What? One hundred and fifty fine rosewood! No matter how calm Ye Wensheng's heart was, he was also taken aback by this number, "Since the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, the red sandalwood in Nanyang has been cut down, I didn't expect Lin Gongzi to be so lucky that you can meet such a large number of red sandalwood in Nanyang." ”

Ye Wensheng just sighed at Wickham's good luck, but he didn't doubt Zhang Mingxia's words at all. The two of them are lifelong friends, and the other party will not use this kind of thing to entertain themselves.

"It's not my luck, it's Brother Xia who deliberately made me make this fortune. I decided to divide this batch of rosewood into two parts, one of which is Brother Xia's! Wickham knew in his heart that it was not his luck, and without the information provided by Zhang Mingxia, he would not have known that there was a batch of rosewood piled up in the warehouse at the George Town dock that no one cared about.

It stands to reason that Wickham should do the same. Hearing this, Ye Wensheng's gaze at Wickham also became different, thinking that this Yiren is also a principled person and will not take advantage of others in vain.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Mingxia's face changed suddenly, and he said: "If Brother Zihan still regards me Zhang Mingxia as a friend, this matter will not be mentioned again!" If it weren't for you, I might still be a slave in Penang, and I would still share these rosewood with you, so wouldn't I be a forgetful person? And if it weren't for your identity, I wouldn't have the ability to buy this batch of rosewood from the governor of Penang. ”

Seeing that the other party said solemnly, Wickham didn't want to say anything, thinking that he was looking for an opportunity to compensate Zhang Mingxia in the future.
