Chapter 21 Luo Shiqing of the Changzhou Cao Gang

Two days later, Luo Laosan's boat arrived at Gaoyou Ferry. Luo Lao's three names are Luo Shiqing, although he is not handsome, but his brain is bright, his eyebrows are clear, he is very pleasing to the eye, he is two points taller than Qi Qiang, and the wolf skin jacket on his body is of excellent texture, that is, he is slightly open, and he is not rude, but he is a little windy, and Qi Qiang is affectionate.

His family was born in the Caojun of Tunhe, and he had eaten Caohe rice since the previous dynasty, so he naturally had more knowledge than the unemployed and proletarian sailors from other provinces. He is capable of himself, although his parents died, but his uncle has no children, the Luo family relies on him to pass on the lineage, and the Changzhou Gang treats them differently. After a long time, some eyes are above the top, and the daughters of Caoyun people, although some of them are good-looking, they can't look at them.

He stood at the bow of the boat, and sure enough, he saw the Qi family brothers and sisters standing on the dock waiting, and his face was happy. He saw that Qi Su Niang was wearing a white Ge cloth button shirt on her upper body, wrapped around the edge of her lake-green clothes, with lake-green wide-mouth pants on her lower body, a wide scarf with green flowers on the snow on her waist, and a floral handkerchief of the same color on her head. Luo Shiqing came back to his senses, hurriedly put down the barge, personally picked up the two people on the ship, and called someone to pick up the goods.

Qi Su Niang came to this world, and she also took many ships on Cao, although she has seen many fleets, but none of them can compare to the three gangs under Luo Shiqing. Thirty boats are all hanging four huge oil sails about ten feet high, and the huge slurry under the ship is waving together, hitting the water and breaking the waves, advancing one after another, covering the sky and the sun, so not majestic.

Qi Su Niang couldn't help but be a little speechless. Goodbye to the sailors on the ship and the slender man on the shore, the back of the **** was blown by the sun, and they were all as violent as fish scales, and they couldn't help but be frightened.

Luo Shiqing saw that Qi Su Niang's face was unbearable, and there was sadness on his face, but he smiled in a blink of an eye, and said: "Relying on water to draft water, it was originally a life's money, as long as the river is better, and the boat and goods are kept, it is to save your life." With that, he turned around and shouted, "Start the boatโ€”"

After a long day's journey, the south wind blew and the fleet was against the wind. Qi Qiang got up, ran to the bow of the boat to help get off the sail, and threw Qi Suniang to Luo Shiqing.

Although Luo Shiqing takes a fancy to Qi Su Niang, she is arrogant, she will not pretend to be careful, but just lead her to look around, and when she sees what she is interested in, he will explain it in detail, which makes people feel like a spring breeze and can't get bored.

The cabin is full of pouches, which are full of glutinous rice and white grains for the royal family, bags of cotton, brocade, Hangzhou tea, Suzhou silk, Chengyao porcelain, Yangzhou silk flowers, Changzhou comb and all kinds of private goods hidden in it.

Qi Su Niang looked at it for a long time, and couldn't help laughing: "Third Brother Luo, you can see that you can see the private goods hidden like this, but you can pass the money pass?" โ€

Luo Shiqing smiled slightly, and said in a low voice: "Even the emperor Lao Tzu knows that we are carrying private goods, and we understand it up and down, and we are not afraid of people seeing it." He only has six taels of silver a year, and he can't support himself, and he doesn't let us earn some money to support his family, who will work for him? โ€

Qi Su Niang took a few steps closer, looked at those private goods carefully, and recognized that they were all high-grade goods, even those Yangzhou silk flowers were not much worse than those in the palace. Luo Shiqing saw her turn around and go to look at the silk flower, hesitated for a while, saw that there was no one on all sides, and finally took out a small juanhua from her arms, handed it over, and pretended to be calm: "Sister of the Qi family, this is a fine play for the internal affairs government, you can take a look." โ€

Qi Su Niang had been in the palace before, so she naturally had a vision, and when she heard this, she took a look at it, and it turned out to be a small spider-shaped red silk flower, and she immediately laughed: "Third Brother Luo, this is a rare play, but it is specially used for the Dragon Boat Festival to avoid the five poisons?" After that, he asked him about the cost, freight and selling price of the silk flower.

Luo Shiqing saw that she didn't squirm, so he breathed a sigh of relief first, and then listened to her ask this, but frowned. He smiled first: "I don't know these reasons, when I received the goods, in addition to flowers, butterflies, double happiness, longevity silk flowers, as well as five phoenixes Chaoyang, Chang'e to the moon, this batch of Yangzhou silk flowers for the Ministry of Internal Affairs, I look at it is ordinary, toads, centipedes and ugly, just this can be seen." He glanced at Qi Su Niang, and said: "If the sister of the Qi family likes these, she will naturally have as many as she wants, as for those outside things that come and go, now your brother is worried about it, and in the future, your husband will have to worry about it, you just need to sit in the inner house and not take half a step, teach your husband and children, and have fun." โ€

After a few days, Qi Su Niang found an opportunity to Qi Qiang and said: "Brother, it's only been a few days, hundreds of people have chewed and used the usual money along the way, I saw that Luo Sange has a lot of silver in his hands, I heard that eight hundred taels of silver have seven or eight times the profit, and I don't believe it yet, now I calculate, I don't need to make these examples, I'm afraid I will earn more than that." โ€

Qi Qiang sighed and said: "The Cao River swims through nine provinces, and there are not two or three hundred dams and gates along the way. He pointed to the pile of rice in the library, "When I arrived in Huai'an, the Yamen of the Governor of Caoyun inspected the rice, up to the governor and down to the cangtou, all of which were routine. If you go to the granary of Detongzhou and enter the warehouse after inspection, there will be all kinds of common practices of submitting books to the court, and there are many of them. After a boatload of grain, it needs to pay five or six hundred taels of silver, if it is more, one or two thousand taels is also a common thing, if it does not carry private goods, where can the Caohe transporters and sailors live? โ€

Qi Su Niang was shocked when she heard this, and secretly thought that Luo Shiqing would not charge Qi Qiang's fees, but it was a pure profit, and the tea was already profitable, so the profit was more than ten times, and there were always seven or eight thousand taels of silver.

Qi Su Niang thought of this, and was a little worried. Qi Qiang threw her to Luo Shiqing from time to time, but he had good intentions, wanting her to know some of Luo Shiqing's temperament, so that he could get an idea. It's just that she now relies on people to make money and owes favors, where is she picky?

Qi Qiang heard her concern and said with a smile: "It turns out that you are also a fool, is my brother so confused?" Is Luo Laosan so easy to get along with? He also knows that you have been booked by someone, where will you say it explicitly? He only said drunken words, but I only listened to drunken words and never mentioned them again. Didn't you see him go back to the door last time? This time with the goods, it's just a joke, eight hundred taels of tea, how much space can it occupy? I don't look for him, I can find someone else, and he knows it. I took you aboard for the sake of brotherhood. I think he's a little good, so let my sister look at each other. He still dares to speak? You don't have to be looked down upon. โ€

Qi Qiang saw that Qi Su Niang seemed to be relieved, and couldn't help laughing, and said: "These **** spring breezes are proud, I am still thinking about this matter, seeing you like this, he is too happy." โ€
