Chapter 259: Riding a boat
"Let's go." Jiang Banxia picked up his burden and walked to the dock without hesitation.
He Qiao hurriedly caught up: "Don't wait for anyone?" ”
Wait for others? She has already been targeted by Jinyiwei, how dare she wait any longer? These brocade guards were specially sent by Emperor Qingwen to keep an eye on her, just to see who she was involved with in the court.
She didn't dare to wait and couldn't afford to wait, Huang Wei's people hadn't come yet, so they should have noticed it.
There are many cargo ships on the dock, but there are few passenger ships, and she asked several passenger ships in a row, and they all said that they were full, and it was useless for her to add money.
"This little brother, don't bother with it, those people who hang lanterns on the boat are all people with heads and faces, and there are female dependents on the boat, and they will never let you take the boat." The sailors carrying the cargo on the cargo ship said: "If you are in a hurry, why not consider taking our cargo ship." ”
After listening to it for a long time, it turned out that this person was pulling business for his own family.
Jiang Banxia said with a smile: "Let's hurry, how can we take your cargo ship?" ”
The sailor who moved the goods stretched out five fingers: "The conditions are limited, so I will charge you fifty small flat money." ”
The price is really good compared to a passenger ship, but the conditions on board are difficult to say.
"That's already the best." Seeing their hesitation, the sailor immediately said: "The boss of our trip is transporting grain, and although the environment on the ship is assured, there will never be any miscellaneous things, and fifty small flat wallets are worth your money." ”
Transporting grain? Jiang Banxia's expression was surprised, could this be a merchant ship that went to the south to resell grain?
The merchant is even faster than the imperial court!
Jiang Banxia threw a piece of broken silver: "Deduct the boat fare, and reward you for the rest." ”
The sailor immediately stepped forward with a smile to help carry the baggage, and kept saying festive words in his mouth: "Don't worry, our ship is absolutely safe, and the boss of this trip has hired a dart master!" ”
"Got a dart master?" Is it necessary to hire a dart master just to transport grain? Is the owner of this ship rich and has nowhere to spend?
Jiang Banxia smiled kindly: "Dare to ask the owner of your ship?" ”
"I heard that it's the king of the small county." The sailor said casually: "I also listened to what the captain of the ship said, but I haven't seen it myself, so the guests should be happy." ”
The swarthy face of the sailor was full of teasing smiles, and the king of Kyoto was the king, and these rich and powerful gentlemen might be looking for fun again, and how could anyone spend a lot of money to ask the dart master to transport a bunch of rations for livestock to the south.
Isn't that a diaphragm?
He led Jiang Banxia and the others into the lower cabin where the goods were stacked, and pulled out an open space in a pile of grain.
"Right here, how comfortable and how to come, what is lacking, just tell me." The cargo water pointed to the nail plate: "The nobles are all on it, as long as they don't collide." ”
"No, what did you just say about the little county king?" He Qiaoyi thought that he had heard the errand, and asked again: "Which little county king is it?" ”
"Hey, which one else can it be, there is only one small king in Kyoto." The sailor was speechless: "Listening to the guest's accent of Kyoto, shouldn't the little county king not know him?" ”
"I just want to confirm, if it's King Xie Xiaojun, we may recognize..."
"Ahem." Jiang Banxia coughed and interrupted He Qiaoyi's words, she turned her head to the sailor and said, "Little brother, although he is busy, don't worry about the two of us." ”
The sailor scratched his head: "Okay, you guys just stay here, just tell me anything." ”
After the sailors left, He Qiaoyi said excitedly: "Boss, this is Xie Xiaojunwang's ship!" There are cheap bastards! ”
Jiang Banxia shook his head: "You can't have anything to do with Xie Fei." ”
Emperor Qingwen himself sent Jinyi Wei to keep an eye on her at all times, and if she got involved with Xie Fei at this time, it would only increase Emperor Qingwen's doubts.
She didn't want anything to go wrong with the errand.
"Hey~" He Qiaoyi sighed: "Then forget it, we are all poor." ”
……
Xie Fei and Lu Xun got up early in the morning, these two people have not been out of focus for a while, and they have not been separated from Meng, although they are tossing and turning, they have not caused a chicken, a dog jumping, and the two adults have turned a blind eye.
Who would have thought that these two people would be so bold as to leave home without permission!
"King Xie Xiaojun, you said that I ran away from home again without saying hello this time, will my mother break my legs?" Lu Xun was a little sad between his eyebrows.
"Mrs. Lu was born... Literary family... It shouldn't break your legs..."Xie Fei slapped a fan to hide his forced smile.
Unexpectedly, Lu Xun, who was not afraid of the sky and the earth, was actually afraid of his mother.
Lu Xun sighed again, and her face became even more sad: "My mother, I can't move, but I can move my mouth." ”
"What do you mean?" Xie Fei tilted his head and said suspiciously.
"Literally." Lu Xun's expression was resentful: "My mother will use her mouth to order others to beat me, and my father's Jinyi guards can each give me two sticks." ”
Xie Fei snorted and laughed, and he patted Lu Xun on the shoulder: "I'm sorry, I didn't hold back." ”
The two stood on the dock and chatted again.
When they went to Jiangnan this time, they brought almost all food, and their personal clothing and supplies were reduced to two boxes.
The little king felt that he had never been so frugal.
"I said, Xiaojun Wang, why did you bring Jiang Xia's cat?" Lu Xun pointed to the round copper coins: "People eat imperial grain in the East Factory, what if the people in the East Factory find that the small copper coins are gone?" ”
The little county king covered half of his face with a folding fan and said: "The little copper coin is a lucky mascot, don't forget that the last time we were in Hezhou, it was because of the small copper coin that we were able to save the day again and again, and besides, it ran with its own ......"
"Oh oh oh!" Lu Xun showed an expression of sudden realization: "I understand!" I know! You mean smuggled out! Just like last time. ”
"Bah, how can I steal the affairs of my little county king." Xie Fei raised his chin and said: "It was this big fat cat who took the initiative to entangle me, and I was forced to be helpless, so I could only take it in with great mercy." ”
"yes, little copper coin." Xie Fei threw a piece of meat for the copper coin to eat.
Meow~
The copper coin happily grabbed the meat, and then rubbed Xie Fei affectionately.
"Tut-tut, if you have milk to drink, you are a mother, and if you have meat to eat, you are a father." Lu Xun stretched out his claws and happily rubbed the head of the copper coin.
…
The people who walked on the north and south canals had their own set of rules, and they usually made some extra money by pulling goods, such as piggybacking on special letters and carrying limited money in the warehouse.
You can earn a little more or less.
In this kind of thing, the boss of the ship turns a blind eye and opens his hands to show a little oil and water, and he should accumulate good deeds.
The warehouse was underneath, and the bumps were the worst, Jiang Banxia, who had not been on the boat for a long time, was a little dizzy, and she shrank in the corner and closed her eyes to recuperate.
As soon as I closed my eyes, my mind kept repeating her experience in the past six months in Beijing, from Jiangnan all the way to the north, constantly alternating between life and death.
Bang dang~
Before she could think about it again, the grain ship suddenly shook violently, as if it had hit something.
