Throughout the winter, the anti-Japanese military town in eastern Zhejiang was almost boiling.

The spurting water vapor was about to lift the lids around it, making Zhang Mingzhen, the deputy general of Shipu who was close at hand, tremble.

In the evening of the cold wind, Yang Zhigao stood on the high place on the coast of Guanhaiwei and looked into the distance, until he saw the undulating sea waves and the blurred sail mast and did not let go of his heart, which was the last batch of returning sea ships this year. The sea breeze is strong in winter, and it is not suitable for long voyages, and it will not be until the beginning of spring next year when you go to sea again.

The ship docked, boarded the sampan, and the boatman who had been sailing for nearly half a year broke out in a burst of suppressed cheers. Every time you go to sea is a gamble, you will feel at ease when you step on 6 places.

A fluffy-headed man jumped off the sea boat with quick steps, picked up Yang Zhigao in a few steps, and said with a smile: "Boss Yang, this trip is quite smooth!" ”

The muscles on both sides of Yang Zhigao's face were piled together because of laughter, and he replied a few steps in front of the mountain: "It's good to come back with a good time, you have been delayed for too long, and the wind in Zhejiang Sea has been strong in the past few days, so I haven't slept well for several nights." "That man is the leader of his former Shang, this year Zhai Zhe left him in Ningshao, he can only let his former subordinates be in charge. Fortunately, this year's voyage of these dozen or so sea ships are all to Xiamen and Taiwan, and there is no need to sail far. After Chen Huwei returned to obedience, the little thieves along the way did not dare to brush his beard.

"There are sugar, spices and deerskins, and the price of silk in Fujian has risen a little this year, and there is no way to run away for 6,000 taels of silver." The man stretched out his right hand and gestured, his thumb and little finger parted.

"I'm relieved to see you, give me the list of goods, unload the goods overnight tonight, and someone will come to pick up the goods tomorrow morning. The sea boat is placed here, and someone will come to pick it up, and you will take the boatman back to Taizhou tomorrow, and you must not stop in Ningshao. Yang Zhigao straightened his face and stopped laughing with him.

"Yes!" The man bowed his hand, turned and jumped back into the boat to get the list, and scolded the boatman for being careful with the goods.

Zhejiang's coastal ban on maritime trade is strict, and people from various prefectures and yamen often visit the coast. Even Ning Shao Sailor and Zhoushan Town are also doing these things in secret. However, with the business name of the business alliance to sell goods back and forth, and with the care of Zong Mao, the head of the General Military Office, smuggling is extremely convenient, which is very different from Yang Zhigao's previous in Taizhou.

Smuggling in military towns, each in charge of its own stall.

After receiving the sea boat, Yang Zhigao, who was riding a horse in the cold wind, seemed to have been ironed with a hot water towel in his heart, and he was indescribably stable.

rushed to the Dinghai Guard overnight, saw Zong Mao to tell the details, and the two made an appointment to report to Zhai Zhe the next day. Back at their residence, Zong Mao and Yang Zhigao didn't have the heart to sleep, sorting out the year's accounts under the dim light.

Waiting until dawn the next day, Yang Zhigao, who had barely slept all night, was awakened by the loud slogans of the guard's footmen, got up, hastily washed his face, and found a brand-new dark blue cotton jacket to put on.

The hour passed, and when he arrived outside the General Soldier's Mansion, Zong Mao was already busy there.

Yang Zhigao was not familiar with this general military manager at first, but now he admires and is cautious in his heart.

Zong Mao's eyes are more vicious than the thorns on the back of the hornet's buttocks, and he can't hide his eyes from a small problem, and this manager is not as generous as the chief soldier, such as Liu Dongjia of the Shang Alliance who spoke in front of him with a sigh of relief.

"Steward!" Yang Zhigao walked closer and saluted respectfully.

Zong Mao had already seen him coming, looked up and said, "You wait a moment." With his right hand, he wrote an official letter and handed it to the soldier who was standing in front of him, and instructed: "Leave this to the horse steward, and he will arrange the rest of the matter." ”

After dealing with the matter at hand, Zong Mao walked out from behind the desk and asked, "Are you ready?" ”

"That's it!"

Zong Mao nodded, stepped out first, and said, "Follow me to meet the lord." ”

Passing through the outer wall of the guard, the two entered the General Soldier's Mansion one after the other, Zong Mao greeted his own soldiers, and after a while, Fang Jin personally came out to greet him.

Zhai Zhe was talking to Liu Suifeng, and when he saw Zong Mao and the two coming, Liu Suifeng retired first.

The two entered the house, and Yang Zhigao first came out to announce: "My lord, the last batch of sea ships docked last night, and this year's sea trade will be stopped." ”

"It's okay, this year's one qiē shun lì!" Zhai Zhe's expression was very gentle.

"This year, a total of 11 trips to the sea, one trip to Japan, eight trips to Xiamen, and three trips to Taiwan, it is expected to make a profit of 70,000 taels of silver." Yang Zhigao was nervous, not knowing if Zhai Zhe would be satisfied in his heart.

Zhai Zhe frowned, a little worse than he expected.

After waiting for a while, Zong Mao raised his eyebrows and said: "My lord, the benefits of sea trade are not only in themselves, but also the business alliance has benefited a lot from going back and forth, according to Liu Dongjia's monthly report, this year, the business alliance is expected to make a profit of 300,000 taels of silver, of which the goods of sea trade are not small." ”

Yang Zhigao glanced at Zong Mao's grateful eyes, he didn't expect Zong Mao to speak for him.

"Even so, it still doesn't satisfy me." Zhai Zhe gently tapped the birch table top with his fingertips.

Yang Zhigao's face turned red and his expression was embarrassed, and the adults were reprimanding him in front of him by saying this. In the past six months, he has done his best, and he has some grievances in his heart.

Seeing Yang Zhigao's expression, Zhai Zhe knew that he was too careful, and waved his hand with a smile: "I'm not complaining about you, Zhehai smuggling has been silent for many years, and it has just started." ”

Yang Zhigao's face turned from red to white, and he muttered in his heart for a long time, and finally said: "My lord, Zhoushan Island is blocking the way out of Ningbo Port. In the heyday of Zhejiang-Haihai maritime trade, it also flourished with Shuangyu Port as the center. If the adults can make friends with the Zhoushan Yellow Ginseng General, take Shuangyu or Zhoushan as the base, and are not afraid of the officials visited by the governor's yamen, the sea trade can flourish. ”

Zhoushan Island is like a stone blocking the sea lane out of Ningbo Prefecture. Huang Binqing's northern border is destined to make it difficult for him and Zhai Zhe to have a chance to ease.

Zong Mao wanted to speak and stopped, Yang Zhigao what he wanted to say had already been said, and he couldn't come up with any good solutions for the time being.

Zhai Zhe thought for a moment, and said with a smile: "I have my own idea, you go back and give some silver taels to the guy who just returned from going to sea, don't let them think that I am a harsh owner." He has been thinking about this matter recently, and only by taking Zhoushan Island can the eastern coast of Zhejiang be completely his world. But Huang Binqing did not make a mistake, and the court had no intention of moving him for the time being.

Zong Mao and Yang Zhigao left, and Liu wiped his body with the wind and turned in again.

"Congratulations to your wealth!" Willow laughed in the wind.

"I want the white-headed army to rebel, do you have any good solutions?" Zhai Zhe was in no mood to laugh with him. After listening to Yang Zhigao's advice, he wanted to drive Huang Binqing away, and there was only one way at the moment. The stable situation did not give him a chance to plan.

In the autumn of this year, Chen Zilong supervised the patrol standard camp to encircle and suppress the Baitou army, and Fujian Province also had soldiers and horses out of Xianxia Pass to assist. It only took a month, and the Baitou army in Quzhou Mansion fled cleanly, so that the road to Fujian was smooth again, and Xu Du was not ready to confront the imperial court.

"It's not simple, you just need to send someone to tell you." Liu Suifeng looked relaxed.

"I'm afraid that if there is no evidence, once the matter is leaked, I will be bitten back by Xu Du." Zhai Zhe has scruples, there is a secret between him and Xu Du.

"It doesn't matter, the Xu family is a well-known rich family, as long as the adults sue them, they will be targeted, unless Xu can swallow his anger."

Liu Suifeng continued to explain: "The white-headed army scourges Quzhou, Dongyang Zhixian does not know that the mastermind behind it is Xu Du, if anyone knows this secret, they must want to slaughter Xu Du fiercely, there are many reckless people in the green forest, and most of them will not be able to swallow this breath if they are oppressed." ”

"Good!" Zhai Zhe has made up his mind, "I want to see how capable Xu Du is!" ”
