Chapter 334: Procurement

Xiao Wenxuan killed the chicken and the monkey and threw the black man's men into the sea, which frightened the man into losing his arrogance at that time.

"Say, Who sent you?"

Xiao Wenxuan's sword blade cut through the man's flesh and blood, and the man gritted his teeth in pain.

"I ...... I don't know who he is, but he just asks us to follow you...... When you come out of Donggu Island, kill people and sell goods. ”

Xiao Wenxuan sent the sword forward again: "Who are you?" ”

"We are some poor grass people, living by robbing our homes." Xiao Wenxuan thought of several recent robberies in the capital, presumably these people.

"How much did he promise you?"

The man trembled and said, "One thousand taels of silver." ”

Xiao Wenxuan stared at him coldly: "I'll give you 10,000 taels of silver, and you will go back to your life in half a month." But I want you to find out who is behind it. After the matter is completed, take this to the Lin family's gambling house, and someone will give you silver. Xiao Wenxuan's hand moved, and a piece of scimitar-shaped white jade fell into the hands of the man.

"But ......" the man is embarrassed, 10,000 taels of silver is really eye-catching, but what can I see if I don't have any goods?

"If I have any other thoughts, I'll throw you to feed the fish." No shadow is intimidating from the sidelines.

The man was so frightened that his body shook and hurriedly agreed.

Xiao Wenxuan wiped the blade of the sword on the man's body twice and wiped away the bloodstains. Collecting his sword, he walked to the bow of the boat, jumped down, and fell lightly into a small boat.

At this time, the sea was calm, and the boat returned to the Shunfeng without much effort.

Not long after, the Downwind set sail again.

Behind the boat, several boats that had followed all the way slowly disappeared......

"Who did that?" Su Muling took off his night clothes for Xiao Wenxuan.

"The employer didn't show his face, but I promised him money to check it."

"That kind of person...... Do you really give money? ”

Su Muling slapped him, a little unwilling. Killing people is cheaper if you don't kill him. Give him back the money, which is aiding and abetting.

Xiao Wenxuan grabbed her hand, put it in his mouth and took a bite, and smiled: "Don't worry, he won't get a copper plate." ”

Su Muling didn't believe it, and her apricot eyes widened.

"That piece of jade is a code word. I opened the gambling house, and he took the jade to get the money, and my people would understand that I wanted them to detain him. I don't show up, he can't go. ”

Xiao Wenxuan walked to the incense burner, picked a piece the size of a soybean from the spice box on the side and put it into the incense burner, and then pulled Su Muling to the bed and lay down.

The beds on the boat were narrow and small, and they exuded moisture. Although the futon has been replaced with pomegranate and brought home, the smell is still unpleasant.

Fortunately, Su Muling had the experience of the last time and brought ambergris. Let the strange aroma of ambergris dispel the damp smell of this room.

"If I find out who is behind the scenes, I will not spare him." Su Muling snuggled in Xiao Wenxuan's arms and swore secretly.

"Don't worry, I'll find the man."

In the previous life, Su Muling fell into the water and wandered on a desert island, and he was almost killed, and he thought that Su Muling was dead, and he was grief-stricken and went to Qizhou alone and was almost killed by King Ping.

This hatred, Xiao Wenxuan remembers.

After a few more days, we entered a dense fog area. Su Muling insisted on accompanying Su Haoran. Xiao Wenxuan also followed by his side, without a shadow and pomegranate, and Liushun naturally accompanied him to serve tea, water, clothes and rice. It's not lively on the deck.

Su Haoran looked at his daughter and son-in-law beside him, his heart was warm, and his body was tired a lot.

Finally arrived at Donggu Island, Su Haoran left the people of the dart bureau to guard the goods on the ship, and took Su Muling and Xiao Wenxuan to find a carriage to go to the inn they often go to on the island to rest.

After walking on the boat for half a month, the feeling of finally stepping on land was a little unreal, Su Muling's feet were weak, and he could only walk steadily by holding Xiao Wenxuan's arm.

And Xiao Wenxuan didn't seem to be affected in any way, holding her waist with one hand and her arm with the other, almost putting the weight of her whole body on herself.

Su Haoran opened a few upper rooms, and all the masters and servants rushed into the rooms to rest.

When Su Muling entered the house, he threw himself on the wide bed, full of joy: "Oh my God, I can finally sleep peacefully." ”

"It's more comfortable to take a shower and sleep again." The store prepared bath water, and Xiao Wenxuan stepped forward to pull her up.

"I don't want to move, you hug me." Su Muling played tricks and refused to get up.

"Okay."

Xiao Wenxuan smiled and took off the fishy clothes on her body, removed the jewelry on her head, and carried her into the bathtub.

Su Muling lay with her eyes closed, and the warm water flooded her whole body, soaking into her body. Exhausted, she fell asleep after a while.

Xiao Wenxuan tiptoed to wash her body, and then dried her off and carried her to the bed. I washed the leftover water a few times and went to bed. Hugging Su Muling, who was sleeping sweetly, Xiao Wenxuan closed his eyes.

When Su Muling woke up, he didn't know where he was. She looked at the handsome face in front of her in confusion, which was still asleep, looked at the unfamiliar environment, and remembered for a long time that they had come to Donggu Island.

"Awake?"

Xiao Wenxuan closed his eyes and reached out to hug her tighter in his arms.

Only then did Su Muling find that the two of them were not wearing an inch. Under her head was one of Xiao Wenxuan's arms, and the other big hand was gently caressing her bare/slippery back.

And she put one hand around his waist, and one of her own legs was still on top of him. The hot/hot heat on Xiao Wenxuan's body spread all over her body, making her, an extremely cold-afraid person, not aware of the slightest cold in this early autumn season, Su Muling comfortably snuggled into his arms.

"Why am I not dressed?" Su Muling slept fragmented, and he had no impression.

Xiao Wenxuan whispered in her ear: "You fell asleep when I bathed you, and I was afraid of waking you up, so I didn't dress you." ”

"What about you? Are you afraid of waking me up when you wear your clothes? Su Muling raised his head, stretched out a finger and tapped his forehead.

Xiao Wenxuan smiled: "I thought that I would have to get rid of the trouble when I put it on, so it would be better to simply be honest with each other." Saying that, he turned over and pressed Su Muling under him/under, deliberately moved on her, and said with a wicked smile: "Don't you think this is a hundred times better than being bound?" ”

Su Muling blushed and supported his chest with his hand, and gave him a blank look: "According to what you say, we should be like the ancients, with the sky as the quilt and the earth as the seat." You don't have to go to great lengths to earn money to build a house. ”

"Of course not, my Ling'er can only be seen by myself." Xiao Wenxuan lowered his head as he said and began to enjoy the pleasure brought to him by his beloved wife alone......

For dinner, Su Haoran took everyone to eat local specialties. When you go out, everyone doesn't have so many identity constraints, and the six masters and servants sit at the same table.

I ate a simple and rough meal on the ship for half a month, and as soon as the dishes were served, everyone was immediately full of praise.

Su Haoran knew that everyone had been suffering on the boat for half a month, and they would have a great appetite, and the dishes they ordered were twice as many as usual, and the six masters and servants ate happily and drank contentedly!

Because he was full of food, Su Haoran took his daughter and son-in-law to the most lively market on Donggu Island before returning to the inn.

After resting for one night, Su Haoran took everyone to start the big purchase of Donggu Island.

Su Haoran's ship was loaded with tea, cloth, rouge gouache, and many goods that Donggu Island did not have. Bartering was his main way of trading.

Su Haoran took everyone to a shop that specialized in selling rare treasures that he often traded before.

The boss Manhattan has only been such a big customer for half a year, so he naturally took out all his belongings and let Su Haoran choose.

Su Muling had seen Su Haoran's ability to barter things, and it was no surprise that this kind of business was no longer surprising. But Xiao Wenxuan was here for the first time, and he was amazed when he saw Su Haoran exchanging ordinary brocade for rare treasures in the palace.

Su Muling knew that he would come with him, and he would be shocked. Holding his hand, he whispered to the present: "I didn't expect it, right?" Their jewelry here is as ordinary as our silk. You didn't see the passers-by on the road, and the ones on their heads and bodies were wearing fine pearls and jade. ”

Then he pointed to the grape-sized night pearls used for lighting in the counter, and said with a smile: "These night pearls are placed in the early Ming morning to pay tribute to the emperor, where do you dare to put them outside like this." ”

She picked up another box inlaid with tortoiseshell and amber and whispered, "These boxes alone can be sold for hundreds of taels of silver in the capital." ”

Xiao Wenxuan was speechless: "Daddy's business is too eye-catching, no wonder so many people are eyeing the map of your house." ”

Su Muling raised his eyebrows and sighed: "Yes, so I advised my father not to take any more risks......

……

While Su Muling and Xiao Wenxuan were muttering quietly on the side, Su Haoran had already exchanged all the fabrics on the ship for a few boxes of priceless jewels in the shop with all the fabrics on the ship.

After eating at noon, Su Haoran did not choose any more goods. Instead, I took them shopping and tasted the life of different countries.

When it comes to a foreign country, completely different exotic customs, Xiao Wenxuan and Wuying, Pomegranate are full of novelty.

Anything that they haven't seen before Daming doesn't have, they have to buy some, and they have to taste what they haven't eaten.

After a while, several people were full of things. Even the special clothes worn by the ancient people in the East, they also bought several sets each.

In this way, they do goods in the morning and go shopping in the afternoon. I watched as the cargo brought with me turned into boxes of jewelry, porcelain, and woollen fabrics piled up in the cabin.

Su Muling, who thought that this was the end of his trip to Donggu Island, heard Su Haoran announce at dinner this day: "The son of Manhani, the owner of the jewelry store, will marry tomorrow and invite us to participate together." ”

Manhani? Su Muling remembered the last garden banquet held by Manhani.

"Good! We also happened to open our eyes to their customs. Xiao Wenxuan looked at Su Haoran with interest: "Let's go to the wedding, do we have anything to prepare?" ”

Su Haoran smiled: "I left good tea on the ship, and I just gave it to them as a gift." ”

"Then, let's put on the clothes we bought here tomorrow, and we can be regarded as following the local customs." Su Muling also became excited.

Donggu Island is more open than Daming, and the marriage must be different. Su Muling's trip to Donggu Island is enough for her to be included in her travelogue.
