Chapter 094 Someone is following

"To Haizhou?"

Li Jingniang paused, she looked at Wang Qifang in surprise, "Cousin, aren't you going to Haicheng?" Didn't Shopkeeper Liu say that the price of grain in Haicheng began to change? I'm afraid, the battle between Haicheng and Qingzhou has started, why are you at this time? ”

I don't understand, she was really completely stunned by Wang Qifang, this sister, what kind of dumb riddle did she play.

"Hehe, I want to help my uncle, but I can't let you stay here with me all the time." Wang Qifang saw that Li Jingniang's eyebrows were twisted into a pimple, stretched out her fingers and gently rubbed her tangled, and said with a smile, "Besides, who stipulates that if you want to help, you must go to the scene?" Doing business is not a group fight, even if we go to Haicheng now, it won't help much. ”

"......"

But it can't be so much of a hammer in the east and a mallet in the west, Wang Qifang tossed for more than 20 days, in Li Jingniang's opinion, it is not helping at all, but adding to the chaos.

Although my cousin has always said that she knows in her heart and she has been prepared, but, she is really worried about the Li family and her cousin, for fear that this time they will be calculated by Zheng Sanyang, and losing the silver is a trivial matter, so you must not bury the foundation of the two families for this.

"Okay, I know that my behavior these days has confused you," In fact, Wang Qifang had long wanted to tell Li Jingniang about her entire plan, but there were some things she was still planning, and she was worried that there would be changes in the implementation process, so it was difficult to tell the truth of the matter.

Besides, this plan is too big, and there is a step that indirectly involves her Buddha bead space, and the problem of space is a secret that can't be told to outsiders even if you die.

Therefore, Wang Qifang needs a little time and space to make up for this key point involving space.

When everything is ready, she will tell Li Jingniang in detail.

First, it is to thank others for helping him sincerely, and secondly, it is also to let Li Jingniang be a witness to prove his food source.

"But don't worry, the whole plan has been launched, and the situation is developing towards my expected goal, as long as there are no big surprises, we will definitely win this food melee"

Gently patting Li Jingniang's shoulder, Wang Qifang said quite confidently, "In addition, in this plan, I also need the help of your fleet, this is inland, there is no sea transportation or water transportation, I want to achieve the whole plan, I must go to the beach, so ah, go to Haizhou not only to reunite you with your brother-in-law, but also to complete the plan better." ”

"Okay, since my cousin has planned it, my little sister will listen to you."

Li Jingniang saw that Wang Qifang was very determined, and she was not easy to persuade again, so she expressed her attitude for the Nth time, "However, if my cousin encounters any difficulties, you must tell me that Deyuan and the Lu family will do their best to help my cousin." ”

"Well, don't be in a hurry to repay the favor, when you arrive in Haizhou, cousin, I beg you for more places, and I hope you don't bother me."

"Cousin......"

The topic was successfully diverted, and the two sisters never said anything about the food issue again, but got together and talked about the strange things in Haizhou with great interest.

“…… A wharf has just been built there, which is said to be dedicated to the reception of cargo ships coming and going by sea. My husband built a trade market around the wharf according to local conditions, so as to facilitate local transactions between merchants at home and abroad. ”

On the slowly moving carriage, Li Jingniang mentioned her father-in-law, her eyes were full of pride.

"Oh, what's sold in the market?"

Wang Qifang leaned lazily on the soft pillow, raised her hand to add a cup of tea to Li Jingniang, and asked curiously.

"There's everything," Li Jingniang leaned over to take the teacup, took a sip of the sweet and mellow tea, blurted out a 'good tea', and then continued, "What kind of gems, jade, pearls, silver tea sets, tableware, and spices, fat powder, glass, fans, carpets...... Anyway, the goods that appear in the east and west of the capital are all available in the wharf market, and the styles, colors and types are far more and new than those in the capital. ”

"Well, yes, this is the first shipping department in the entire Great Zhou, and it is also a maritime terminal open to the public of the imperial court, so it is naturally the first choice for overseas merchants to land, and it is normal for goods to gather."

Wang Qifang nodded, twisted a piece of pastry casually, put it in his mouth and chewed it carefully, "It seems that after we arrive in Haizhou, I will take a good look at the market to see if there are any fresh goods." ”

How can she say that she is also a Confucian businessman, so she has to do a few big business for the world to see, so that Zhao Yongnian always takes advantage of his lack of business experience and waits for the opportunity to take back the nameplate.

"En, it's not just these dead objects," Li Jingniang saw that Wang Qifang was eating sweetly, and she also reached out and inserted a piece of pastry with a silver skewer, put it on her lips and took a bite gently, "Well, it tastes really good." Cousin, your family's Shion is still an all-round talent. ”

"That's not it, the girls I trained are all all-rounders who can go to the hall, enter the kitchen, and fight hooligans," Wang Qifang saw that Li Jingniang was only concerned about tasting pastries, forgetting what she had just said, and hurriedly reminded, "You said that the market not only sells dead objects, but also has a slave market?" ”

"Huh? Cousin, how do you know? ”

After Li Jingniang swallowed the pastry in her mouth, she took another sip of tea, and then sighed with satisfaction, "Whew, following my cousin's carriage, this journey is really comfortable." ”

"What? Is there really a slave market? ”

Wang Qifang just guessed casually, but she didn't expect to guess correctly.

However, this is also a good thing, and it just so happens that she has a shortage of capable and faithful people under her command, and she can go and buy some slaves and come back.

"Yes, there really is," Li Jingniang saw Wang Qifang leaning on the wall of the carriage with a round pillow in her arms, looking very leisurely, she also picked up a pumpkin-style pillow from the seat and held it in her arms, and said slowly, "Those ships that come and go, while transporting goods, will also transport some trafficked people, like Silla, the Japanese country, and those black slaves in small southeastern countries, the men are strong and obedient, the women are beautiful and supple, not to mention the cheap price, and they are extremely tame, as long as they are trained a little, That's all very handy people. ”

"Black slaves?" Wang Qifang paused, and then thought, "Is it a Kunlun slave?" ”

"Well, it's Kunlun Nu, who looks about the same as the men in our Great Zhou, but they are taller, darker, and stronger, and they are very capable of working."

Although Li Jingniang also went to Haizhou for the first time, Xianggong told her a lot about what she had seen and heard over there in the letter, so she still knew a lot about the new things over there.

"Madam, Grandma Lu, there is a forest on the fork in the road ahead, and there is a small lake in the forest, shall we take a rest?"

Thunder rode outside to make a forward stand, and after a circle, he came back to report.

"Yo, this time flies quite quickly, it's almost noon," Wang Qifang craned her neck to look at the sun outside, turned her head and asked, "Jing Niang, let's go to the woods to rest for a while, and then have lunch?" ”

"Well, I'm a little tired of sitting down, let's come down and walk around."

Li Jingniang had no opinion, after she saw Wang Qifang's full-function carriage, she made up her mind, and throughout the trip, she listened to Wang Qifang's arrangements.

Because, she discovered that Wang Qifang is more particular about enjoying life than her.

"Okay, then let's go to the woods to rest," Wang Qifang saw that Li Jingniang had no objection, so she raised her voice and commanded Lei Ting through the car window, "Lei Ting, you go to the front to prepare first, pay attention to safety." ”

"Yes, subordinates obey"

Thunder clenched his fists and led the horse away.

When the carriage came to the fork in the road, Lei Jun, who was driving the carriage in front, shook the whip and turned the carriage onto the small fork in the road next to the official road.

After a while, the carriage slowly stopped, and Wang Qifang and Li Jingniang, with the support of their subordinates, got off the carriage and came to the lake that had already been cleaned up.

Yuan Niang was also carried out of the carriage by Qingfeng, the little girl was either suffocating in the inn these days, or shrinking in the carriage, she had already been suffocated, and as soon as her two little feet landed, she began to run around happily.

"Little girl, be careful, don't go to the lake to play in the water"

Wang Qifang saw the child scattering joy all over the ground like a little wild deer, for fear that she would run into the lake to play carelessly, so she hurriedly asked people to follow, "Qingyun, look at Yuan Niang, don't let her fall into the lake." ”

"Yes, ma'am"

Qingyun hurriedly jumped out of the carriage and followed Yuan Niang closely.

"Mother, mother, there are fish in the lake, let's fish and eat"

Yuan Niang was blocked by Qingyun by the lake, looked at the fish swimming in the clear lake water, and said excitedly.

"Okay, it's just that you can't do it, my mother asked Sister Qingyun to fish for you, and you are watching from the side, okay?"

Wang Qifang knew that since she went out, Yuan Niang and several children were suffocated, and now after listening to her request, she was not angry, but discussed with the children with some indulgence.

"Eun, okay, I'll dig the earth dragon for Sister Qingyun"

When she lived in Zhuangzi in Lingxian County, Wang Qifang took Yuan Niang to fish, so the little girl knew that the earth dragon (earthworm) could be used as bait.

The eldest lady had a life, Qingyun didn't dare to wait slowly, and hurriedly asked Yuan Niang's little maid to go to the carriage to find a bamboo pole, pull on the cotton thread and make a fishing rod temporarily.

Here, one big and one small are sitting by the lake fishing with great interest.

Over there, Zi Yuan and Li Jingniang's girl Bai Xiang were busy preparing materials for lunch.

Lei Jun had already parked the carriage, chose a place in the open space by the lake, picked up a few big stones on the spot, put on an iron pot, and prepared to make a fire.

After a while, the originally quiet forest rose with curling smoke, adding a bit of vitality.

Wang Qifang and Li Jingniang sat on the embroidery pier, talking and laughing while looking at the surrounding scenery.

"Madame, there is a situation"

At this time, Lei Ting, who was in charge of guarding, came over and whispered back, "Someone is following behind, when we went out of the city gate, my subordinates saw a few sneaky figures, but I didn't expect them to follow all the way." ”
