Suzhou Weaving Mansion, looking at the letter in his hand, Li Xu only felt a headache, and the September sun above his head was like a cold wind, blowing straight on his head.

He was very annoyed before, and it wasn't one thing that annoyed him, but now this letter has sent him into the ice cellar.

Before Jiangning Weaving Cao Fu sent someone to ask for government affairs, he actually asked for help. There was something in the northwest, and the court began to prepare for war, and set a large weaving list for Jiangnan Sanweaving.

His Suzhou weaving errand is not tiring. But the Cao family took over the weaving Cao Hao but died at the end of last year, Cao Yin's stepson Cao Fu was only 9 years old, everything was taken care of by the Cao family, and he couldn't grasp Jiangning weaving at all, or he was helping to support.

The errand of the Cao family, he Li Xu can also memorize it, anyway, his iron loom, as well as his own privately built weaving workshop, did it together, and it was good to take the silver from Jiangning weaving to make up for it. It's just that thinking of Cao Hao, who died early in less than two years after taking over, Li Xu couldn't help but feel sorry in his heart.

Creation not only makes people, but also makes his Li Xu's future, the eighth elder brother Yinxu was imprisoned, and he has not seen Kangxi's anger subside until now, look at this situation, he simply wants to deal with it like a waste prince. Li Xu tried his best to defend Yinxu before, but Kangxi didn't know where he learned that his Suzhou weaving was also quite related to Guangdong, and in his request for rain to be reported, he scolded fiercely: "Where does your heart fall!?" His tone was harsh, unprecedented, and it really scared him.

Since then, Li Xu has been thinking about what practical things to do to redeem some sacred hearts, and the first goal is naturally ...... Li Shi.

Before Yinzhen went to Guangdong, he and Li Xi were still "partners", not only replacing their looms with iron looms, but also helping to promote them. And his private workshop, and even the official workshop, are all working hard to continuously transport silk to Guangdong, all of them have taken the black road, made a lot of money, and the previous deficit has been filled. It's a pity that Guangdong has changed drastically, Yinzhen has suffered, this good thing can't go on, every time he thinks of Yinzhen, Li Xu grinds his teeth with hatred.

The matter has come to this, and we have to look forward, and we can see Li Xi at this glance, if Li Xi is solved, he Li Xu will not only make a great contribution, but maybe Yinxu's situation will also change. Besides, his grudge with Li Shi should be settled.

Li Xu has a lot of contacts in Hunan, and Wang Bin, the prefect of Changsha, has a very close relationship with him, and he started to hook up with Yu Song, the proprietor of Hunan Jushengtang, although the relationship with Li Shi is not too close, but he is finally a figure who can find an opportunity to start.

The wrist was released, and he was still waiting for news, but he was in big trouble on his side.

His hundreds of iron looms were all lying on their stomachs, and the Guangdong craftsmen who were originally responsible for maintenance not only ran away, but also transported all kinds of spare parts together.

At this time, he found out that the iron loom was faulty, the effect was high, but it had to be kept all the time, no one repaired it, no spare parts were replaced, no oil was smeared, and it had to stop in a few days.

Li Xu hurriedly found those local apprentices trained by Guangdong craftsmen to rectify, but the apprentices said that they knew how to repair it, and the parts could also be dismantled from the east wall to make up the west wall, but the special lubricating oil had to be provided by Guangdong.

Li Xu chuckled in his heart at that time, the secret way was not good, then Yu Song not only did not succeed, but even confessed himself.

I was having a headache, and a letter arrived in my hand, which was sent by the Suzhou branch of Sanjiang Ticket Bank.

"I want a head, see who your Excellency sends, if it is not agreeable, I will take it myself, Guangdong Li Shi."

Li Shi...... Li Xu's first reaction was to be angry, what kind of person is he? His emperor master didn't talk to him so badly!

But then he calmed down again, and Li Xi stopped working with a small move, and it was unimaginable what kind of situation the letter said, "I'll take it myself".

"I can't bow to this guy easily!"

After thinking about it a few times, Li Xu gritted his teeth, he was still unwilling to admit defeat.

Calling on his family to strengthen the security of his mansion, Li Xu set out to solve the problem of the loom, and now the errand of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Household Affairs is pressed down, and if he does not start work quickly, the emperor will be even more annoyed at that time.

The iron loom is no longer working, so why is it difficult to re-use the old wooden loom!? It's just that the old loom is lost and sold, Li Xu has no choice but to focus on the small weavers around him, and at this time he doesn't care about any reputation, so he just presses it down.

Now Suzhou is lively, thousands of weavers have been forcibly sent to work, but the materials and silver given are extremely shabby, which is no different from Ming robbery. But Li Xu has been sitting in Suzhou for so many years, and he has accumulated a lot of power, and he feels that the weavers below can't afford to stir up any waves.

But he didn't want to think that a few days later, Zhang Boxing, the governor of Liangjiang, came to the door in person.

"Xudong, this matter is abrupt, you sent workers to weavers, many embroidery workshops have run out of materials, and those merchants are complaining to me. Not only that, Suzhou weavers have also run countless times, selling their fields and houses, and the people of Jiangsu are panicking, these ...... DID YOU KNOW? ”

Zhang Boxing said cautiously, he, the governor, was driven to the shelves, and he had a grudge with Li Xu before, but now he was forced to come to the door in person.

Li Xu really didn't know, so he shrank in the room, for fear that his head would be taken by the assassins sent by Li Xu. But listening to Zhang Boxing accusing him, he was very angry in his heart, this industrialist and commercial people in the south of the Yangtze River have been suppressed by you and have grievances, and now I move the weavers, but you want me to stop, why?

The two quarreled with each other, fought between light and dark, argued for most of the day, and finally came to a consensus that this is a difficult problem, and everyone has to work together to help each other.

"Why don't you just seal the Suzhou branch of Sanjiang Ticket Bank! There are hundreds of thousands of taels of silver there! ”

Li Xuxin said that if he got this money, he would be able to deal with this errand without breaking his muscles and bones.

"You can't do it...... I have already sent someone to investigate, the people of the Sanjiang ticket house are not afraid at all, if you kill the ticket shop, not only the other local ticket houses will panic, but the Jiangnan businessmen will all have to blow up the nest. If you anger Li Shi in Guangdong and intercept the money and grain in Guangdong, won't we become ...... again That one? ”

Zhang Boxing shook his hand again and again, and the "that" in his mouth was the fourth elder brother Yinzhen who stabbed out the big leak.

Li Xu sighed, this game of chess is too big, he really can't be a chess player.

"I'm ready to slow down, Xudong also think about it more, and calm down the people in Jiangnan together, otherwise the emperor will ......"

Zhang Boxing was almost pleading, thinking of what kind of face Kangxi would have if he pressed the weaver too hard and stirred up any trouble, Li Xu's heart was also cold.

After Uncle Zhang walked, Li Xu thought about it for a while and felt relieved. Yu Song is just a businessman, why should he stand up for him, he was able to pinch his nose and admit the life of his family Ji Heizi at the beginning, how old are you Yu Song?

"Someone, send it to Changsha Mansion ...... urgently"

After writing a letter, Li Xu summoned his family and instructed him.

Changsha, in Yu Song's mansion, is full of joy, his fiftieth birthday is approaching, and he is looking around.

"You have to be careful of Li Xian......"

A lewd man with gold teeth in his mouth muttered.

"This is Hunan, and it's my land in Song."

Yu Song's relaxed and self-protruding smile showed the fear in his heart. I have been cooperating with Li Xi for two or three years, and I also have a deep understanding of Li Shi's surname, don't look at him in his early twenties, he is still a little shy when he laughs, and he looks harmless to people and animals, but he can be ruthless, but he will never be discounted.

Before receiving Li Xu's errand from Wang Bin, the prefect of Changsha, and got the promise that he could become a salt merchant in Lianghuai after the matter was completed, Yu Song's heart was hot. Compared with the piecemeal business done now, the salt merchant is simply a carp entering the dragon gate and sitting on the ground to collect money.

I was too entangled with Li Xian before, and I had no choice but to help him, but now not only can I get out, but I can also get such benefits, Yu Song no longer hesitates. On both light and dark, Mingli said that Jiangxi businessmen were moved, and at the same time Peng Xianzhong's will was shaken, and secretly searched for assassin candidates. Feeling that Li Xian was strong and strong, and the assassins on the bright side could not please him, he took the dark path and found the pair of sisters.

Taking advantage of Han Yujie's accident, he lured Li Shi to Qingyuan, but he was afraid in his heart after all, and he didn't dare to meet Li Shi, so he ran away, every time he thought of this decision, Yu Song admired his foresight, that Li Shi, his life was as hard as steel, and he really didn't move him.

Now hiding in his hometown in Changsha, Yu Song is still weak in his heart, not only has he recruited two or three hundred nursing homes to protect himself strictly, but he doesn't dare to move around easily, for fear that Li Shi's people will come to the door. Earlier, he killed more than a dozen officials in Guangdong in one go, and that glazed pillar with a human head was terrifying enough.

Nearly two months have passed, and Li Xi doesn't seem to have moved, and now on his fiftieth birthday, he is also tentatively showing up.

"Xiao Pang, when the governor arrives that year, let's climb on him and fight with Li Xian!"

Yu Song said to the golden-toothed man next to him, this person is Pang Zesheng, the younger brother of Pang Zewang, the proprietor of Qujiang Coal Mine, his brother was killed, he fled to Hunan with his relatives, Yu Song took Li Xu's task and took him over.

"I'm talking about moving the red seedlings and recruiting them, no matter how strong Li Xi is, he shouldn't be the opponent of the red seedlings."

Pang Zesheng said hatefully.

As he spoke, the concierge shouted: "The lord of the palace is here——! ”

Yu Song hurriedly grinned and greeted him, Wang Bin, the prefect of Changsha, came, and it seemed that although his matter was not done, he still earned this face.

Wang Bin appeared with a few entourage, and there was a faint smile on his face, which was equivalent to singing in front of him, and he didn't even have a chance to greet him, so he waved his hand and shouted: "Take it!" ”

Yu Song's face froze, until his arm was twisted backwards and was firmly tied by the leather cord, then he came back to his senses, and just as he was about to speak, a rag was stuffed into his mouth, and he could only whine.

Facing the messy and frightened gaze in Yu Song's eyes, Wang Bin said coldly: "Since the thing has not been done, let's borrow your head to do another thing." ”

Yu Song's knees weakened, and his eyes suddenly rolled white.

The joy was still ringing, Yu Song's family, relatives and friends who came to congratulate were all staring at the scene in front of them, and the nursing homes recruited by Yu Song did not move at all, and they saw Yu Song being dragged away like this.

"Sir...... Where did the lord offend the government? ”

"Hurry up and talk to the people of the Cantonese Chamber of Commerce, aren't they protecting the official mansion for the master?"

Yu Song's side room whispered anxiously, and Pang Zesheng, the golden-toothed man who had already shrunk behind the crowd, snorted coldly.

Their lord, it is not the government that offends, but Li Shi, who is taking Yu Song now, the government on the face, and Li Shi behind it. He came from Guangdong, and he more or less knew what kind of dealings Li Shi had with the official master.

"It seems that we have to find an official who is as determined as iron and doesn't treat us as chess pieces, otherwise I won't be able to avenge my brother."

Pang Zewang thought to himself, he didn't know what kind of role the new governor who was already on the road was.
