Chapter 110: Su Hanzhen's favor

Brothers, the third day is even hotter, sweeter than roasted sweet potatoes, let's smash the monthly pass! ――

"What did you say?" Qi Huan didn't understand what he meant, "What... Land exchange? ”

"Does Mr. Qi know about the piece of land at the north end of the new bridge?" Wu Jin continued to ask quietly.

"Oh! You mean that the land that my niece bought, I know, and the title deed is also in my shop. ”

Qi Huan frowned, he suddenly understood what Wu Jin meant, "You mean.... Swap with the land in the north bridgehead? ”

Wu Jin nodded, that's what he meant, in fact, he didn't care much about the land at the bridgehead, if he was willing to change, it would be a slight loss to him, but he could take a bad breath, if he didn't want to change, he could also earn more than 10,000 taels of silver, so to speak, no matter which one Qi Huan chosen, he could agree.

Qi Huan had already gone to see the land in the north of the bridge, although the location of the land was not bad, but that was not what he wanted, after all, the north of the bridge is a residential area, where there is no business atmosphere, the average person will buy things to the south of the bridge, where the shops are dense, there is more choice, unless it is to sell exclusive monopoly goods, the purchase of silkworm seeds and white silk in the north of the bridge can be, but the sale of silk is not good, Qi Huan has been in business for many years, he believes in his own judgment.

What's more important is that Qi Huan didn't know that Wu Jin and his niece Qi Fengwu fought for the land in Beiqiaotou, the two had fought fiercely, and in the end his niece won, if he knew, I am afraid he would not hesitate to reject Wu Jin's suggestion, the Qi family is not short of this money, and honor and face are more important.

At this time, Wu Jin took out the land deed that had been divided and put it on the table, this is the piece of land that Qi Huan wants, Wu Jin tempted the other party again, "To be honest, I don't want to sell this land, I plan to use it to build a restaurant, but the land in Beiqiaotou I think it is more suitable to be a restaurant, if Mr. Qi is willing to exchange, then I will make a deal, if Mr. Qi is unwilling, then I will ask a craftsman to start building a restaurant tomorrow, I came today for this matter, and I finally confirmed to Mr. Qi." ”

Qi Huan is actually willing, although it is not bad to open a restaurant on the land in Beiqiaotou, but he doesn't want to open a restaurant, but he is a little embarrassed, the name on the land deed in Beiqiaotou is his niece Qi Fengwu, it stands to reason that his niece must sign and draw a mortgage to transfer, but he can also sign on behalf of him, as long as the land deed is in his hands, the county government will generally not embarrass him.

"Okay!" He finally nodded and agreed, "We'll make a deal." ”

......... At noon, Wu Jin was sitting at the pawnshop counter planning his future bank, which is the bank of later generations, but this era does not have all kinds of rules and regulations of later generations, and there is no difference between money and other shops, but the capital needs a little more.

He now sells land in his hands and gets a total of more than 80,000 taels of silver, generally speaking, the largest piece of capital to build a money village is land, but now the land does not cost money, only need to build a ten acres of bluestone mansion, as well as an underground treasury, at least 5,000 taels of silver, although he does not want to be as luxurious and luxurious as Qi Dafu Village, but at least he has to decorate it like a look, and then plant some strange flowers and plants, and ask for five or six thousand taels of silver, and then there are expenses for hiring, advertising, etc., he still has more than 60,000 taels of silver in his hand, which seems to be a lot, But he has other plans, in fact, he is not well funded.

The figure at the door of the pawnshop flashed, and Huangfugui hurriedly walked in, holding a title deed in his hand, "Wujin, I'll do it for you!" ”

Wujin was overjoyed, hurriedly got up and came over, and took over the title deed from Huangfu Gui, this is the piece of land at the north end of the bridge, which has been changed in the county office, with his name written on it, Huangfu Wujin, he couldn't help but laugh proudly, he must show the Miss Qi family, he seems to see Qi Fengwu's annoyed and angry look, he can imagine how shocked Qi Fengwu's expression will be when he sees this title deed, interesting, it is simply interesting.

"Wu Jin, I think you've lost a lot."

Huangfugui has always been obsessed, and was ridiculed by the shopkeeper Liu of Qi Dafu Qianzhuang, and even the scribe of the county government to change the title deed also said that they lost money in this transaction, and he saw that Wujin was still laughing happily, so he finally couldn't help it, "I have calculated, you have lost at least 5,000 taels of silver in this transaction, and Qiaobei can't be compared with Qiaonan!" Qiaobei is a residential area, how can you go to Qiaobei to buy things, that piece of land is worth six or seven thousand taels of silver at most, but you take more than 10,000 taels of silver worth of land to exchange, it is really a big loss! ”

Wu Jin saw that the fifth uncle was distressed, so he smiled slightly: "Fifth uncle, the account can't be calculated like this, scarce things are expensive, when I bought the land west of the Eight Immortals Bridge, didn't you also say that I lost?" ”

Huangfu Gui was stunned, and then slapped his head hard, "I'm far inferior to you, just when I didn't say anything." ”

"Wu Jin, I heard that the Eight Immortals Bridge was rebuilt by you?"

I saw a middle-aged man walk in at the door of the pawnshop, Wu Jin was stunned for a moment, and the person who came was Su Hanzhen, "My lord, why are you here?" ”

Several guys in the pawnshop were so frightened that they stood up one after another, and Huang Fugui was even more frightened, "My lord, please sit inside!" ”

Su Hanzhen nodded, and he smiled slightly at Wu Jin, "Wu Jin, I have something to do with you." ”

"My lord, let's go inside and talk about it!"

Wujin invited Su Hanzhen into the inner hall to sit down, poured him another cup of tea, and then sat down opposite him, "My lord, what's the matter with me?" ”

"I'll tell you two things first."

Su Hanzhen smiled slightly: "The first is that Gao Heng and Chen Zhi have already left, Gao Heng left early in the morning, Chen Zhi left at noon, your eldest brother will not have any more troubles, but the Huangfu County Duke may be unlucky, this is the first." ”

Su Hanzhen and Wu Jin both laughed, imagining that Huang Fuqu would carry the black pot in the end, which was more interesting than anything else, but Su Hanzhen still had something to do, the smile on his face quickly disappeared, and he looked at Wu Jin, "The second thing I want to ask you, last night Xu Yuan's second son was beaten badly at the gate of the county school, and he was beaten badly, it is said that both arms were all broken, I want to ask, is it your hand?" ”

Wu Jin shook his head, "I can clearly tell the adults, it's not me, I came back to sleep yesterday afternoon, I didn't sleep all night the day before yesterday, I couldn't stay up, and it wasn't at my instigation, this matter has nothing to do with me." ”

Although it was not Wu Jin's hand, he knew who did it, his uncle Chen Anbang, Chen Anbang once told him that he wanted to warn Xu Yuan well, so he attacked Xu Yuan's son.

Su Hanzhen looked at Wu Jin's eyes, and when she saw that he was very calm, she also felt strange in her heart, who could it be?

He groaned, then changed his train of thought and smiled, "Okay! Let's not talk about it, I went to visit Weiming just now. ”

"I haven't gone yet!"

Wu Jin was a little ashamed, "I'm going to visit him at night." ”

"Hmmm! Wei Ming's injury is better than I expected, and he will be able to heal in ten days at the earliest, and he will be in Beijing at that time. ”

The Jinshi exam was held in Luojing in mid-September, and now it is late June, and there are still two and a half months to go, it is the time to set off, Su Hanzhen let go of the Buddha to understand what Wujin was thinking, he shook his head, "I said that he wants to enter Beijing not to mean that he will enter Beijing to catch the exam, but there is another big event, think about it again, what will it be?" ”

Wu Jin's mind turned, and he suddenly reacted, "My lord is saying that the East Palace tax silver enters Beijing?" ”

"Exactly!" Su Hanzhen smiled and praised: "You are very smart, you actually guessed it." ”

He sighed slightly and said: "Originally, I planned to release the tax silver into Beijing at the same time as the household tax silver in February next year, but Uncle Shen Guo is also paying attention to this tax silver, so that I can't wait any longer, and the prince is also in a hurry, this time the escort tax silver is 900,000 taels, plus more than a dozen granges in the East Palace in Chuzhou, the accumulated land endowment in the past few years is about 100,000 taels, a total of 1 million taels of silver, whether the army of the East Palace can be kept, it is a move here." ”

"What do you mean by letting my eldest brother escort me?"

"You should have been an escort."

Su Hanzhen smiled slightly and said: "You are the head of Hu Cao, but my official written appointment has not yet been issued, so the head of Hu Cao is still clear, and it is his duty to escort the tax money into Beijing, and when his injury is a little better, he can set off." ”

Wu Jin's brows furrowed, he felt that there were many problems here, the most important of which was security, and he asked again, "Are you going to let the army escort you?" ”

Su Hanzhen's eyes also flashed with a hint of worry, "Wu Jin, that's why I came to you, I also want to have an army escort at the end, but unfortunately, this time there is no army to escort you." ”

"Why?"

"The reason is very simple, to mobilize the army of Donghai County, you must go through the Ministry of War, but Bai Mingkai, the secretary of the Ministry of War, is Uncle Shen's person, and asking him to send troops to escort him is undoubtedly a tiger skin, and I estimate that he will not send troops, there has never been a precedent for the counties to release the tax and silver into Beijing to send troops to escort, and the regimental training soldiers are not allowed to leave the country, so this time there will be no army guards, only we will find a way to do it ourselves, no Jin, I hope you will also enter Beijing."

This is the purpose of Su Hanzhen coming to him, Wu Jin understood when he guessed the tax silver in the East Palace just now, he came to find himself, he must have wanted him to enter Beijing with his eldest brother, and escort him along the way, he originally planned to enter Beijing with his eldest brother, but it was another matter to ask him to protect the tax silver, it was actually to work for Su Hanzhen.

Although Su Hanzhen kept saying that she would secretly enter Beijing, with Xu Yuan here, could she get it secretly? Uncle Shen will never sit idly by and watch one million taels of tax silver to support the crown prince, this will definitely be a difficult road to Beijing.

As a brother, he will not sit idly by and ignore the danger of his eldest brother, but he will not work for Su Hanzhen so in vain, he is a businessman, and businessmen pursue profits.

Thinking of this, Wu Jin pretended to be embarrassed, "Master Su, you know that I have always been a person who has a clear distinction between public and private, of course I am accompanying my eldest brother, but I am not a tolerance after all, but I have to take such a big risk, shouldn't adults say anything?" ”

"Didn't I say that I would recommend you to the Prince? And I promise that the prince will reuse you, if you succeed in protecting the silver this time, I will add another condition, to promote you to the captain of the East Palace, if the prince does not agree, I will also pick the son and quit. ”

"Of course I believe in your lordship!"

Wu Jin's eyes flashed with a dissatisfied smile, "That's just a promotion in the officialdom, what about the benefits of the shopping mall?" Adults also know that even if I became a lieutenant, I was a part-time businessman. ”

"You greedy fellow."

Su Hanzhen also smiled, Wujin has helped him a few times in the past few months, and he has always wanted to find an opportunity to thank him, since he took the initiative to bring it up, it would be okay to see what he could help him.

"Say it! What do you want me to do for you? ”
