Chapter 183: Back to the door

In fact, Wu Jin not only wants to make a lot of money in this preparation, he also wants to get the full support of the Qi family, which is also one of the reasons why he wants to marry Feng Wu, but they have just gotten married, and he is embarrassed to bring up this matter, he is afraid that Feng Wu will be too careful, thinking that he is interested in the Qi family's financial resources to marry her, but when he returns today, he will definitely talk to the Qi family about assistance, and he hopes that Feng Wu can help him in this matter.

Feng Wu took the pen and paper, but she didn't write it again, seeing that she was about to go to the Qi Mansion, she couldn't write anything, she glanced at her newlywed husband, and saw that he was silent in thought, so she asked with a smile: "San Lang, what are you thinking?" ”

"It's nothing, I'm thinking about how to talk to my father-in-law later."

Feng Wu is a smart woman in Bingxue, she immediately understood what her husband meant, and she would talk to the Qi family about her future plans later, so as to get the support of the Qi family, which was very important to him.

In fact, Wu Jin thinks a little too much, women are like this, once they get married, and after giving their whole body and mind to their husbands, all her thoughts will be on her husband, Feng Wu is very clear about the strength of her mother's family, she knows what kind of help her mother's family can give, so she smiled and said: "Don't worry, I'll talk to you later, I know in my heart." ”

Wu Jin saw that Feng Wu was thoughtful for himself, and he was very grateful to her in his heart, so he smiled and gently stroked her hair, "It's really embarrassing for you." ”

"Husband!"

Feng Wu hugged her husband's neck and said coquettishly emotionally: "As a husband and wife, we have worked together for a hundred years, and I have been a gentleman, but can I not worry about the monarch?" ”

...... The Qi family prepared a grand welcome for Feng Wu's return, in fact, this welcome was more because the heir Liang Wangfu Wujin became the son-in-law of the Qi family, in order to welcome the arrival of this prince and son-in-law.

Dozens of Qi family members had gathered in front of the Qi Mansion, and when Feng Wu's carriage appeared in their sight, everyone shouted together, "It's coming!" Here it comes! ”

Qi Wannian smiled with a smile, he had a lot to say, just to wait for a good talk with Huangfu Wujin today.

The carriage slowly stopped, Wu Jin got out of the carriage first, and then turned around and helped Feng Wu's hand to get out of the car, this subtle action made all the Qi family members smile with relief, which showed that their little couple was very harmonious and happy in the cave room last night.

Feng Wu saw that his parents and grandparents were in the front, so he pulled Wu Jin, and the two knelt down together, Feng Wu said: "Daughter Feng Wu and her son-in-law go back to the door to give a gift to her grandfather and father!" ”

"Son-in-law has no jin, give a gift to my grandfather and father-in-law!"

Qi Zhu, who was standing at the front, hurriedly helped them up, "Hurry up, please get up!" It's all my own family, so I don't have to be so polite. ”

At this time, the deafening sound of firecrackers suddenly sounded at the gate, and the Qi family stepped forward to welcome them back to the door, and Qi Zhu hurriedly separated everyone and revealed the threshold of the Qi Mansion.

There are not too many ceremonies in the Daning Dynasty, it is more of a symbol, which means that the woman's family accepts this son-in-law, for ordinary people, the daughter and son-in-law return to the door to put on a big banquet, invite relatives and friends to drink, and for large families, in addition to the feast, the woman's parents and elders have to talk to their daughter and son-in-law to understand their future life arrangements, and the mother's family will generally give help within their ability.

There is not much etiquette in detail, and each family is mainly for entertaining guests, but there is still a common rule, that is, the son-in-law crosses the threshold, and the son-in-law crosses the threshold, and is officially accepted by the woman's mother's family.

In front of everyone, Feng Wu took Wu Jin's hand, and the two crossed the threshold of the Qi family together, and the surrounding Qi family cheered together and responded with warm applause.

....... In Qi Wannian's study, Wu Jin and Feng Wu sat down, in addition to Qi Wannian, there were also the eldest son Qi Zhu and the fourth son Qi Huan in the room, this was the first time they talked as a family.

In this kind of conversation, changing roles is the most important, how Wujin changed from a royal highness to the son-in-law of the Qi family, this change in identity, how harmonious the relationship, how to remove the embarrassment between them, this requires a communication bridge.

And Qi Fengwu is the bridge between them, and she also knows this, so she takes the initiative to sit next to Wujin.

Qi Zhu smiled and started the topic from the run, "I came back a step late for this run, I didn't expect it to be so bad, Baifu Commercial Bank was almost completely squeezed out of Donghai County, in Jiangning Mansion, Baifu and Donglai also suffered heavy losses, this matter caused a great sensation in the DPRK, I got the news, it is possible that the household department will send someone to investigate this matter." ”

Qi Huan was a little worried, and he hurriedly asked, "Is the eldest brother's news accurate?" I mean, the household department is going to send someone to look into this. ”

"I also know a little bit about what my father-in-law said."

Wu Jin took over the topic and said with a slight smile: "Fourth Uncle don't worry, Uncle Shen Guo won't be dedicated to this matter, he just comes to go through the motions, and the level of the person who comes is not high, it seems that he is just an outsider." ”

Qi Wannian heard what Wu Jin said, so he asked him: "Wu Jin, what do you mean by this, why doesn't Uncle Shen pay attention to this matter, I don't understand a little, Baifu has suffered heavy losses, and it has a great impact on the King of Chu, how could he not pay attention to it, can you tell us about it?" ”

"Grandfather, don't ask, Wu Jin must have a point in saying this, you just know it."

Feng Wu was worried that her husband would be embarrassed, so she hurriedly blocked it for her husband, and everyone laughed together, saying that girls are outgoing, this is true, only one day after getting married, she completely protected her husband, Qi Wannian shook his head and smiled: "I can't afford to mess with you girl, I won't ask, okay!" ”

Wu Jin hurriedly smiled and said: "This matter is indeed a big secret, only a few people in the entire court know, but since we are a family, I can tell you that I only hope that my grandfather, father-in-law and fourth uncle must keep this secret, this matter is very important." ”

Everyone saw that although Wu Jin was talking about this with a smile, his tone was very serious, and they all nodded in unison, and Qi Zhu hurriedly waved his hand to let the maid next to him retreat.

Wu Jin slowly told everyone about his deal with Shen Qiwu, and the Qi father and son looked at each other when they heard it, they never dreamed that the Nanshan faction actually supported the prince, and Baifu Commercial Bank was actually the prince's source of wealth, which was a bit unbelievable.

Qi Zhu pondered and said: "Then this time we will hit the Baifu Commercial Bank hard, but we don't have to worry about Uncle Shen's revenge, but we have to pay attention to the prince's secret arrow, right?" ”

"Actually, I don't think my father-in-law needs to worry too much about the prince, after all, I made the move this time, the prince understands in his heart, he still has to ask me, and he won't do anything to Qi Ruifu for the time being, as for the Nanshan faction, what matters to him now is not how to retaliate against us, but how to reduce his own losses, so at least for half a year, Qi Ruifu is not in any danger, and he can use this period of security to expand in Chuzhou and fill the gap in Baifu's withdrawal."

Qi Wannian nodded and said with a smile: "Wu Jin is right, this time Qi Ruifu can win a big victory, in fact, there is no Jin behind us to support us, I heard that the emperor has ordered the Chuzhou water armament to fight the Phoenix Society, I remembered the attack on the Phoenix Society thirty years ago, almost the entire Chuzhou was mobilized, mobilized hundreds of thousands of people, major merchants donated money and materials, money, food and materials piled up, at that time, the Dongyang County Wang Huangfu Zhiquan was in power, control the entire Chuzhou, Baifu Commercial Bank was established at that time, to undertake the supply of the entire military supplies, Nanshan sent four county kings only to contribute 600,000 silver, set up the Baifu Commercial Bank, as a result, the Baifu Commercial Bank made 6 million in one fell swoop, although the attack on the Phoenix Society failed, but the Baifu Commercial Bank succeeded, and this time, the emperor ordered Wujin to be the commander, I thought of the Baifu back then, I don't know ......."

"Grandfather, I can't say any more."

Feng Wu interrupted her grandfather's words with a smile, "I already want this business opportunity first, grandfather can't grab it from me anymore!" ”

Qi Wannian laughed, "It seems that I'm really old, and I can't rob young people anymore!" ”

Qi Huan hurriedly smiled: "The second girl is the first to get the moon near the water, of course my father can't compete with him, but I estimate that the second girl may not be able to do the job, and I have to come to beg you." ”

"Fourth uncle!"

Feng Wujiao said angrily: "Could it be that I have only been married for a day, and the Qi family will not care about me?" ”

Although everyone was a little joking, Qi Wannian knew very well in his heart that Feng Wu wanted to take over this big business, this must be what Wu Jin meant, and it was clear from Wu Jin's silence on the side that she was doing it for Wu Jin, and the Qi family really couldn't stand idly by, since the topic had gradually deepened, Qi Wannian felt the need to talk to Wu Jin about the future, but he was not very good at taking the initiative to speak, and Qi Wannian gave his eldest son a look.

Qi Zhu understood, so he smiled slightly: "Feng Wu, the family doesn't care about you, don't worry!" I will definitely support you, so don't make trouble. ”

Qi Zhu said to Wu Jin again: "Wu Jin, tell me about your plans in the future, everyone cares about you." ”

The words began to get to the point, Wu Jin pondered for a moment and said: "After the change of Jin'an, the King of Shu, the King of Xia, the King of Gui, the King of Qin, the King of Jin, and the King of Ji who supported the King of Chu were all cut down and seized power, and they all disappeared without a trace for forty years, and their descendants sank, only the King of Liang, who supported Emperor Jin'an, was still standing, and Emperor Yong'an made his relatives feel painful and his enemies were happy, and what he did seemed incomprehensible, but in fact, the reason why King Liang has stood up to now is that he holds the army in his hand, so that the emperor is helpless, but the emperor does not want to seize power, This is also the reason why I came to Chuzhou as the heir of King Liang, the emperor is through me to cut the domain of King Liang, I have repeatedly considered, if you want not to be cut by the emperor, the most important thing is to have your own army, now the king of Qi, the king of Zhao, the king of Chu, the prince, in fact, they all have an army in their hands, once the emperor goes west, the world is in chaos, the kings take the heir, how can I protect myself? So I have decided to establish my own army in Chuzhou, this time in order to prepare for the Ryukyu, the imperial court has issued several decrees, the day before yesterday the imperial court has a new decree, ordering the coastal counties to recruit 100,000 civilian water warriors, to assist the officers and soldiers in attacking the Phoenix Society, if I can seize this opportunity, I will have the power to protect myself. ”

Although Wu Jin's words were said a lot, the meaning was very obvious, 'Once the emperor goes west, the world is in chaos, and the kings take the heirs, how can he protect himself? This is the most critical sentence, and it is also the sentence that touches the Qi family the most.

After a long time, Qi Wannian said slowly: "If the world is in chaos, Qi Ruifu will be someone else's Chinese food, if there is no Jin to protect himself, Qi Ruifu can also protect himself, we are willing to raise 100,000 troops for you." ”

He looked at his eldest son Qi Zhu again, and Qi Zhu thought for a while and said, "The Qi family should have no problem getting 1.5 million taels of silver a year. ”

At this time, Feng Wu, who had been silent, spoke, "Father, grandfather, fourth uncle, we are not in business, we are for the Qi family to protect themselves, but also for the long-term prosperity of Qi Ruifu, let's not talk about the specific amount, I think, how much military spending does Wujin need, how much military spending should the Qi family take, I think this is the sincerity of our Qi family." ”
