Jinling City overnight in chaos, many old people who have experienced things said, the last such turmoil was ten years ago in the Great Zhou Dynasty, Jinling is a prosperous place, recovery is very fast, but two or three years back to the pre-war romance and gorgeous, now another turmoil, Jinling's business has had some impact, the major chambers of commerce have been copied and inspected, some generations of businessmen, this time also faced the crisis of ancestral turmoil.
Many families went to the Imperial History Mansion to give gifts to beauties, and the golden boy received some suitable people, and the situation of the Chamber of Commerce in Jiangnan should also be shuffled, and it can't always be those few dominants. There is a merchant surnamed Shen in Jinling, who used to pick up some food that people don't want behind several major commercial houses, and looked at the pitiful ones who were suppressed, but in fact, they had already invested under the command of King Xiangjun, and they had a lot of filial piety in recent years.
The Shen family was originally born in the maritime business, the main livelihood is to go to the sea to trade, but the maritime business is risky, the previous head of the family died in the shipwreck, the successor of the family sought stability and steal peace, and moved to Jinling with his family from Quanzhou, came to this prosperous territory, there are many opportunities for merchants to make money, but the competition is also fierce, there are several large merchants in the local area, almost monopolize the livelihood of eating, drinking and having fun in Jinling City, and the most profitable salt transportation business is for everyone to compete for, and it is not easy for them to get a piece of the pie from a foreign merchant. Fortunately, the Shen family used to be a maritime merchant and accumulated a lot of wealth, came to Jinling in the past few years, spent a lot of money everywhere, and finally gained a foothold in the city, and made some small livelihoods, but it was beyond his means. The Shen family is ready to be a business rookie in Jinling City.
Originally, several large merchants in Jinling, there is also a family that has taken refuge in the golden boy, that is, the Jin family, the head snake of Jinling for several generations of businessmen, the Jin family acted obscurely, before going to the banquet with several other families to rebel together, and also went to prison together, the golden boy also checked the Jin family's business house, and was finally acquitted, saying that there was no problem, and the other few who went in together never came out, and they were so angry that they scolded the Jin family for being treacherous.
The few families that were locked up, the golden boy led people to raid their private houses of the firm, and then went to their close people to investigate, what evidence of the crime can not run, after getting the tangible evidence, the golden boy returned to Beijing, handed over the evidence to the emperor, let him go to investigate the silverfish in the court, and the business pattern of Jiangnan was handed over to Liu Yu's historical history, whether the Jin family can sit firmly in the position of the leader of the leader, whether the Shen family can take the opportunity to get up, it depends on them, he has vacated the position, they can't squeeze in, and they are not worthy of his service.
Jiang Ji completed the task and returned to Quanzhou, and he had to explain to Qin Hao, he took people out of the station without saying hello, that is, he had the emperor's token, and he should also tell Shangguan, how could he secretly send troops. Qin Hao didn't blame this matter, their uncle Lang, how could he intervene, he also smelled the tense situation in Beijing, King Xiangjun was afraid that it would be unusual when he returned to Beijing this time, Jiang Ji was afraid that he would climb on his head in the future, he had to have a good relationship with Jiang Ji at present, and he would make plans when there was really competition.
Jiang Ji went to the barracks to say hello and went home, Jing'er was pregnant, and she was worried about the safety of her husband and brother, Jiang Ji couldn't rest assured of her.
Yes, Jing'er is pregnant, this is a gift from God, once she hurt her body, the doctor predicted that she may be childless for life, the doctor only said maybe, but they all understand, the doctor said that it is possible, it is nine times out of ten, Jing'er was sad for a long time, and finally relieved, after conditioning her body, she was intoxicated with wind and moon and did not ask about mundane things, the husband and wife were kind and loving, and the sex was also harmonious, because she could not be pregnant, and there was no need for contraception, who knew that they were not prepared at all, God was so unexpected, and gave them a child, The imperial doctor said that this is the county lord's good conditioning, and his body is comfortable and cheerful, but it is easy to get a child, but those who are anxious to ask for a child can't ask for it.
Jing'er has also heard this, thinking that those women in the palace have done everything in order to ask for a child, and they have found nothing, she has already seen it, but there is an unexpected joy, the day the doctor diagnosed her pregnancy, she was stunned for a long time and then covered her mouth and cried, she has been relieved in the past two years, but how can she be relieved, Xiaolan stayed in her belly for six months and was not born, she will never forget this pain, this time she is pregnant again, it must be a girl, she can comfort herself, it is Xiaolan back.
Jiang Ji rushed back from the barracks after learning that she was pregnant, and kissed her again and again while her tears were not dry, he didn't care if he could have any more children, as long as he could make up for Jing'er's pain, he could do anything.
But Jiang Ji has not been happy for two days, he received a letter from the golden boy, he is not at ease to leave Jing'er at this time, but Jing'er is not at ease with the golden boy, the child and brother are her close blood, no one will want her life, she asked Jiang Ji to go back quickly, she does not go out at home, the defense is strict, it will be fine.
The golden boy only heard about Jing'er's pregnancy after meeting Jiang Ji in Quanzhou, and he was happy for her, and he forcibly suppressed the mood of going to Quanzhou to see her, and rushed back to Beijing after taking care of Jinling's errand.
Jing'er asked Jiang Ji what happened in Jingzhong, Jiang Ji shook his head and said that he didn't know, he only knew what the golden boy was plotting, and if he did, this incident would be settled.
――――
Jin Tong took the account books and letters of various salt merchants in the south of the Yangtze River and returned to Beijing by water, and encountered several waves of assassins on the way, and the excerpts he sent back to Beijing must have been intercepted, otherwise why didn't his father send someone to pick him up. He guessed that the way back to Beijing was not peaceful, Jiang Ji left him a team of men and horses, escorted him back to Beijing, but the enemy was no match for this wave of outlaws along the way, the guards around him gradually weakened, there were dead and wounded, all of them were loyal to protect his people, they had to keep their bodies when they died, and they had to let the doctor diagnose and treat them if they were injured, but in this way, with these burdens, their progress was slower, and everyone was in the spirit of 120,000 points, some people took turns to be on duty at night, and those who were not on duty did not dare to sleep to death, afraid of the way of others.
The golden boy does not need to be on duty at night, but he is very afraid of death, and at night the four personal guards are left in his room, two of them are on the floor in his room, and two are on duty outside the door, and the four of them are rotated, and the two of them sleep in the first half of the night, and they are handed over at the same time.
It was May, the night breeze on the Grand Canal was slightly cool, blowing a boatload of people were drowsy, the night guard yawned a few times, the eyelids gradually drooped, the weapons in his hands could not be held, so he dozed off against the railing of the door wall, did not see a few black shadows quietly sneaked on the boat, threw a few cylinders with smoke and sparks into the cabin, and quickly hid under the water after throwing, a big ship was on fire in a moment, accompanied by a loud noise, the hull exploded, the fire on the Grand Canal soared into the sky, and the night was as bright as day.
