Chapter 63: The Mysterious Caravan (1)
"My original plan was not to go through the port of Yuezhou, but to change lanes on the way to the port of Yuezhou. I also thought that your mother's delivery was approaching, so I came to take a look. Yu Mu happily patted Xingzhi's shoulder, "Stinky boy, you're almost better looking than your uncle and me." ”
"Amu, speak well in front of the children." Yu has a serious temperament and loves his younger brother very much.
It's just that the younger brother has an uninhibited temperament, and four out of twenty are not married, not only Zhenzhou's mother is worried, but her sister is also worried.
Yu Mu just laughed.
"Where is Uncle going this time?"
"Go to Ludipingzhou." Yu Mu said.
"It's cold in the north, and my uncle must pay attention to keeping warm." Song Xingzhi said.
"It's not the first time I've been to Pingzhou." Yu Mu said, "Okay, I came early in the morning, and after waiting for a long time, I have a lot to say to you." ”
Song Zhiwei said when he heard it: "Stop, you talk to your uncle." Zhiyue, you serve your mother to rest, I go to Zhang Luo for dinner, and I cook a few favorite side dishes for my uncle. ”
"Zhiwei understands your uncle's heart best, and your uncle loves you the most." Yu Mu Road.
"Doesn't my uncle hurt me?" Song Zhiyue pouted.
"It all hurts the same." Yu Mu smiled.
"Uncle, go to my courtyard to talk, I asked for two pots of plum blossom wine from the teacher, we talked while drinking, and I also had a lot to say to you." Song Xingzhi said.
"Just what I want."
The two uncles and nephews went to the courtyard.
Xingzhirang prepared a side dish for wine without saying a word, scalded the plum blossom wine, burned the stove, and the two sat cross-legged on the kang to drink.
"Here's for you."
Yu Mu held a large mahogany box for her.
When Xingzhi opened the box, it turned out to be a box of silver tickets and gold leaves.
"So many ......"
"You deserve it, I originally planned to give it to you when I came back from Pingzhou and docked in Yuezhou, so I'll give it to you in advance now!"
"Not so much!"
When Song Xingzhi was ten years old, he persuaded his mother to give half of the dowry and his private house to his uncle to run a business, as a joint stock.
My uncle is a good businessman, and he has a large number of dividends every year, and he will return to his capital in two years.
"Uncle is a businessman, he can't afford to be early, and what he gives to you is naturally what you deserve, don't think too much." Yu Mu said as he clinked glasses with her.
"Okay, I'm also looking for a way to make money, count it as my uncle." Song Xingzhi said.
Yu Mu's eyes lit up when he heard this, and the two of them had another drink.
After talking about business, the two couldn't help but talk about the current situation.
"Uncle, I'm afraid that the four states in the southeast will become more and more unpeaceful, and my uncle must be careful when traveling."
"Your uncle and I know in my heart, I can earn this trip, wait for my uncle to give you dividends!"
After drinking a few glasses, Yu Mu looked serious and lowered his voice and said, "Let me tell you something." ”
"Uncle, you say."
"More than half a month ago, there was a fleet of ships that went all the way north from Huaizhou Port, and the shipwrights on board were all from the masters of the mercenary group. They traveled unhindered all the way, and even the Zhao family Caoyun made way for them. Yu Mu whispered.
"Who is it?"
"I don't know who it is, but it must be a big man who can have such a battle. The fleet consisted of more than 20 ships, 10 of which had a very heavy draft, and the other 10 ships escorted in a herringbone shape. Yu Mu explained.
Twenty ships! Song Xingzhi couldn't think of anyone else who could have so many ships.
"I have a slight guess that those ten ships are so heavy in draft, they are not ordinary cargo, they should be munitions."
Song Xingzhi smelled an unusual aura!
The cost of merchant ships is extremely expensive, the Zhao family only has more than a dozen large merchant ships, and the Yu family has operated water commercial transportation for so many years, and there are less than ten merchant ships.
Who is so capable? Twenty merchant ships were sent at once. And it's still arms!
