"General, you don't know" Sun Hong patiently explained: "This trip goes, if the wind is smooth, the natural speed is accelerated, once there is no wind, it depends on the boatman to row, find someone to pull the fiber, then it has to be slow, if it is unlucky, encounter the head wind, but also moor for a few days to change the direction of the wind will continue to move forward, the most complicated is that the canal is by introducing the water of other rivers into the canal, among which there are naturally formed river channels, there are also artificially dug river channels, some places are very shallow, the size of the river body flow is adjusted by the sluice plates: use the sluice plate to intercept the flow of each section of waterIf it is against the water, the ship will inevitably spend a lot of manpower to pull the fiber to travel. ”

"In addition, the channel of the canal is limited, but there are many ships, the grain ships are endless all year round, and all kinds of official ships and civilian ships are often congested, so this trip is not simple, if it is a civilian ship, bad luck, it is not surprising to go for two or three months" Speaking of this, Sun Hong said a little proudly: "But the ship that the general is taking now is a royal ship, before departure, has greeted the Cao Transport Department, in addition to releasing all the way, there will be people for us to dredge the navigation, priority passage, all the gates, also fully cooperate, With these guarantees, the little ones are confident that they will arrive in a month or so. ”

It turned out that this was the case, Liu Yuan secretly regretted that there were too few false accusations, and he had known that he would take more false accusations.

Oh, by the way, no wonder the last time I went to Qinghe to send jewelry to Cui Mengyao, someone suggested taking the waterway, saying that the waterway was stable, and if you encountered a good waterway, you could rush for twelve hours a day, but at that time, Qin Lang insisted on letting Liu Yuan take the carriage, it turned out to be this truth, don't bully the mountains and the water, and if there is any emergency military situation report or something, it will be preferentially transmitted by an eight-hundred-mile fast horse.

Liu Yuan nodded, and asked some questions about shipping at random. Then go and watch the beauties play cards.

Think of it as a vacation for yourself.

"Senior brother, come quickly." As soon as Liu Yuan returned to the bow of the boat, when the little lady saw Liu Yuan, her eyes lit up, and she hurriedly waved her hand and shouted.

"Oh, what's the matter?" Liu Yuan asked curiously.

Xiaoniang stood up suddenly, pulled Liu Yuan to sit in her place, and pouted, "Senior brother, Sister Mengyao, they bullied me and fought for so long. I haven't been fooled, I've lost more than 20 taels, you are a master, help me come back. ”

Liu Yuan was bored and responded with a smile. While stacking cards, he smiled and asked, "Which beauty has died?" ”

"This palace is gone," Li Lizhi said proudly.

Li Li is cautious and calculating. Although they are not as long as the little girls when they play. But it has grown rapidly, and now the level is very high, and the level of Xiao Niang is the lowest among the four, and she is a little overwhelmed.

"Okay, let you spit it out." Liu Yuan let go of his arrogance.

"The tone is really not small" Li Li stared at Liu Yuan provocatively, and said lightly: "Since this is the case." It's better for us to play bigger, General Liu's family is hugely rich, and the reward for the subordinates is also ten taels or eight, this two two or two. I guess you won't be able to see it either. ”

"How big is the play?"

"Ten times as much"

Ten times? That is ten taels or twenty taels, so eating a chicken paste is also ten taels, which is equivalent to a shopkeeper's salary for a few months.

Liu Yuan said indifferently: "Since the princess is interested, then Liu Yuan will also sacrifice his life to accompany the "princess", come and come." ”

Jinghua Study, Chang'an Newspaper's dividends and pen fees, Princess Li also saved nearly 5,000 taels of personal money, there is silver in her pocket, she is not panicked, Li Li's waist is also up, not afraid at all, she forgot that this technique is still taught by Liu Yuan, and now she is challenging Liu Yuan.

"Deal, Start"

Start

"Bang la" "Bang la la" Soon, everyone began to play cards.

"Bump"

"Kong"

"I'm sorry, princess, this is Liu's first step"

"Flowers on the bar, Ha Lu Ha"

"No, the six cylinders are Zhongzhang cards, princess, do you dare to show the bar like this? I'm sorry, but three shots, now you can get some blood. ”

"Ha Lu Ha Ha the last card is paste, Haidilao Moon, luck is too strong, what, princess, why is your face so ugly, it's okay?"

Li Lizhi also won a few handfuls at the beginning, but the more she played, the worse her luck became, the more depressed she became, the more she lost, and when she got to the back, she lost her confidence, and she was full of tricks, and when she got to the back, she didn't have the power to parry, and now she looked at Liu Yuan, Cui Mengyao and Du Sanniang, and the three of them were counting the bamboo sticks that replaced the silver, and they were so angry: This Liu Yuan, playing cards is really self-defeating, before he came, he was a family of three, and now it's good, this guy came, it was a family that lost three, and they all lost red-eyed, Lost a green face.

"I didn't get much, but I lost fifty taels of silver." Du Sanniang said with a smile.

"Meng Yao is better than her sister, and she has earned a total of one hundred and twenty taels of silver." Cui Mengyao's record is also good, and her eyes are narrowed into a line when she speaks.

Undoubtedly, Liu Yuan was the one who won the most, Liu Yuan demonstratively shook the handful of bamboo sticks in his hand that was almost impossible to grasp and said: "Liu is not talented, only 1,280 taels for himself, so that Her Royal Highness the princess will lose 1,450 taels, no more." ”

Looking at Li Lizhen's depressed look, Liu Yuan was happy: I have to admit that Li Lizhen is indeed very smart, she learned to count cards and deduct cards without a teacher, and played very calmly, but no matter how shrewd she is, where can she compare to Liu Yuan, an old fox, not to mention rich experience, she is so far away from Li Lizhen in terms of skills, and in some details that she doesn't know about the road, Li Lizhi unknowingly, betrayed herself: for example, as soon as she got a good card, her pupils dilated, and she was so nervous that she rubbed her hands together when she heard the cards, and then for example, she listened to the cards in the listening tube, As soon as someone played the tube, she would get excited, and even the jade pendant on her body inadvertently became a mirror, allowing Liu Yuan to see her cards clearly

Unintentionally, where the enemy is intentional, everything is like Liu Yuan teaching the arrogant Young Master Wang and Cui Mengzhen in Qinghe, just after fighting for half a day, Li Lizhen lost nearly 1,500 taels.

One thousand five hundred taels is a huge amount of money for Li Lizhen.

Li Li's eyes widened, and she said in surprise, "What? One thousand four hundred and fifty taels? Liu Yuan, you're not mistaken, right? ”

"These bamboo sticks are all here, and there are so many people watching them. Besides, if you give Liu another one who dares not to deceive the princess," Liu Yuan said with a smile: "Fortunately, the princess took the initiative to increase the amount, if you don't say anything, this more than 1,000 taels will only cost more than 100 taels." ”

This God of Wealth knocks on the door, it is difficult not to get rich, on the way to the boat, you can earn more than a thousand taels at once, which is also a very good thing, Liu Yuan can't help but whistle or something, by the way, the kid of the Wang family owes himself silver. I haven't seen him pay it back yet, it's not bad to beat him when I have time, well, and Cui Mengzhen, this chick also owes herself a lot of silver. Last time, she was light, and she received a lot of fragrant interest. There is a chance. It's not bad to get a little bit of interest.

At this time, Li Lizhi regretted all her intestines.

It's not small to play one, two, two, two, but I think too highly of myself, I am too superstitious about my own skills, and I want to teach Liu Yuan a good lesson, so I messed up when I was angry, and I dug my own grave after the worst. Now that I think about it, what I learned was well taught? It is said that the apprentice of the church starved the master to death, and this sparrow was originally made by Liu Yuan. Where is his opponent? It's nearly 1,500 taels, almost one-third of the money I've worked so hard to save.

More than 1,400 taels, quite early and a few royal sisters to open a Jinghua study, when the business is good, you can divide a month of thirty or fifty taels, when the business is light, only one or twenty taels, this more than a thousand taels of silver, put in the past, at least worth their four or five years of dividends in the Jinghua study, and now all of a sudden output of the Lu, when willing, although it is a princess, Li Lizhi still feels pain.

It's all impulsive.

"Why, princess, is it inconvenient?" Liu Yuan said with a smile: "It's inconvenient, then it's better to calculate it next time, Liu is not in a hurry." ”

I don't know why, seeing Liu Yuan's triumphant face, Li Lizhi has an urge to kick Liu Yuan to the ground, and then stomp on his feet twice, which is really annoying, but Li Lizhi is very well-cultivated after all, and quickly cleaned up her mood, smiled at Liu Yuan, and said loudly: "This palace has always done what it says, isn't it more than a thousand taels of silver?" Hongu can afford to lose. ”

After speaking, he turned his head and said, "Come on, carry the cash box." ”

"Yes, Princess."

Soon, the two strong guards carried a cash box, and as soon as Li Lizhi opened it, everyone only felt a flower in front of them: in the box, it was either gold or gold and silver, not to mention thousands of taels, the princess was the princess, and she went out with a mountain of gold and silver.

"Meng Yao, this is one hundred and twenty taels for you." Li Li took a gold ingot of ten taels and two silver ingots of ten taels and handed them to Liu Yuan.

"This" Cui Mengyao said with some embarrassment: "Princess, just now it was just a joke, don't take it seriously, so much silver, the princess should take it back." ”

Li Lizhi smiled and stuffed the silver into Cui Mengyao's hand, and said disapprovingly: "This big bet is what this palace said, and it is true to its word, it is a sincere person, and this palace is a princess of the Tang Dynasty, and she can't break her word and get fat, so you can take it." ”

"Then thank you, princess." Li Lizhi said so, Cui Mengyao also accepted it with a smile, thinking that she would make it back to her later.

Everyone can see that Liu Yuan and Li Lizhen are angry.

After Cui Mengyao took one hundred and twenty taels, Du Sanniang also received fifty taels of silver, but after giving one to the second daughter, Li Lizhen locked the cash box and let the subordinates carry it away.

"Princess, what about mine? Mine is the big one? Liu Yuanleng paused for a moment and immediately reminded.

Li Lizhi said disapprehantly: "This palace said that I will lose you 1,280 taels." ”

"What about the silver?"

"In the cash box, don't you see? A few thousand taels. ”

"I see, but you haven't given it to me, princess." Liu Yuan said depressedly: "What's the use of seeing? ”

Li Lizhi said lightly: "This palace admits it, but I didn't say when I will give it to you, you see, the silver is in that box, and it will be kept by this palace for you for the time being, and when the time is right, I will return it to you." ”

"Ah, when is that convenient?"

"Look at the mood" Li Lizhi waved her hand and said: "Okay, this matter is settled, the palace is a little tired, go and rest first." ”

After speaking, he ignored Liu Yuan and walked away, leaving Liu Yuan and the others to look at each other.

After Li Lizhi left, Cui Mengyao said with some complaints: "Liu Yuan, why are you so serious? The princess is our good friend, and this time she specially invited us to come on board, provide free food and drink, gamble so much, you have to see it and accept it, and you have given you a few looks, but you just turn a blind eye and be careful to offend her. ”

"Yes, Liu Yuan, it would be good for you to earn a hundred or dozens of taels at most, but if you earn more than a thousand taels, the princess should be distressed now."

Even the little lady who has always helped Liu Yuan couldn't help but say: "Senior brother, there is no shortage of silver in the house, you not only kill her so much, but also chase the princess to ask for silver, so to the princess, even the little lady will not help you." ”

Liu Yuan said a little embarrassedly: "I don't know what to do, I suddenly want to carry it with her."

I don't know why, as soon as I saw Li Lizhi happy and lost, there was a sense of satisfaction in my heart, that feeling, as if I saw that she was no longer on top, and her emotions were controlled by herself, and her mood would become happy, Liu Yuan suddenly appeared in his mind A ridiculous scene: a teenager found a beautiful angel, so pure and beautiful, but angels do not belong to the world, so he removed her feathers (to be continued......
