039 [Jianghu Daotong]
Mr. Fu's unintentional question made Gu Jue's heart move, how good would it be if the land price could rise?
But how can it go up, and it can be higher than two hundred taels?
This Gu Jue didn't know that it was beyond his ability level.
At present, he only knows that His Majesty's attitude towards land transportation is urgent and positive, including his father, so he can have a hunch that there is a great possibility that the land price here will rise, after all, Liuhe County is not to mention anything else, but the geographical location is excellent.
And once the land transportation is unimpeded, the commercial trade will immediately prosper, so the choice of the racecourse here is indeed more advantageous than the choice of Jinling City.
"Lao Lei, if the negotiation is completed, will the turnover in the account be enough?"
When Mr. Lei heard this, he smiled confidently: "Don't say 700,000 taels, 7 million taels is enough." ”
When Gu Jue heard this, he almost stumbled, he was angry! He knew that the racecourse was very expensive, and the daily turnover was very high, but how much it was, after all, the finance department knew best.
"Ahh Hahaha...... That son was relieved, and he had a bottom in his heart when he talked about it. ”
"What are you going to talk about? Who to talk to first? ”
Gu Jue showed his signature evil smile and said, "Naturally, you can't find Fang Siwei's kid, and you can't find Taifu Temple first, you have to find ...... Nanjing garrison. ”
Mr. Lei was slightly surprised, but he didn't ask any more, and Gu Jue really had to go to the right place to negotiate.
On the second day,
Xie Sanduo went to the county government again, met Fang Siwei and Master Huang, and the three of them had a brief exchange, and then decided on some details of communication with the Cao Gang.
Then Xie Sanduo set off from the county government and rode a post road to the hall set up by the Cao Gang at Yizhen South Wharf, and he wanted to make an outpost first.
The South Gate Wharf is the confluence of the Yiyang Canal and the Ao River, whether it enters the Cao from the Yangtze River or from the Yiyang Canal, it will pass through the Ao River. The convenient geographical location also makes both sides of the river extremely prosperous, and Hexi Street is the most lively, with many guild halls and shops on both sides of the street, as evidenced by Mr. Rap's words:
Go out of the south gate, swim slowly, and walk to the west of the river.
When you get to the pier, you will have a long time under the bridge.
There is a Guandi temple in the east, and there is a Xingsha theater in the west.
Chenghuang is close to the mouth of the river, Siyuan communicates with the giant port of business, and sees the Yangtze River flowing eastward.
The entrance of the old Anbang is in this area of guild halls and shops, a seemingly small house, and the Jiangnan-style house is mixed with the characteristics of the northern quadrangle.
Xie Sanduo was already outside the gate at this time, but he heard the sound of singing from inside, pondered for a moment, and still rang the knocker on the door. After a while, a small guy came out to meet the guests, Xie Sanduo reported to his home, and then handed over a name sticker to explain his intention.
The little maid took the name sticker and said wait a minute, and then turned back to the courtyard. After a stick of incense, the little maid came out again and said that the hall master was invited, and then respectfully invited him into the hospital.
Xie Sanduo followed the little guy all the way to the outside of the main hall, and sure enough, he saw that there was a curtain in the hall singing, and he looked up along the alley, and the big house and two rooms of the Cao Gang were there. In addition, there are many people around the two, who should be the leaders, recommenders, and managers of the gang.
Qian An is called the second room, five big and three thick and one man, wearing dark muslin short brown, the sleeves are rolled up, revealing two large openwork arms, the waist is tied with a cloth belt, the lower body is trousers, the calf is still wrapped in a row, and the feet are a pair of cyan square head shoes.
I thought I knew Xie Sanduo, and when I saw him come in, I immediately got up to greet him, and then opened my arms to make a greeting gesture. Xie Sanduo only felt that the black clouds were overpowering, and he flashed to the side without thinking about it, avoiding his hug.
The man looked, hey, the kid dares to hide? One step after him, reaching out to grab his shirt, the posture was like a tiger digging out his heart. Xie Sanduo leaned back, but he could dodge the grab, and then quickly adjusted his posture, his left foot was slightly raised to prepare for the attack, and his right hand clenched his fist and struck at the door......
Originally, the Yiyang dialect was still singing, but at this time it also stopped, but the musician was quite clever, and hurriedly beat the gong and drum to cooperate with the two of you.
The musician pinched just right, and the audience was also coaxing, so they made a lot of noise, and at the end of the big room shouted majestically,
"Uh-huh...... Enough is enough! ”
The big room is Weng Nunnery, slightly older than the second room, dressed as a Confucian scholar, with a fluttering scarf on his head, and his temperament is not like a person begging for a life on the canal, but it is quite similar to Master Huang.
Xie Sanduo stopped fighting with the rough man, and the man seemed to be still unsatisfied, patted him on the shoulder and muttered again, and then introduced the other people present one by one.
After a brief greeting with each other, the host did not rush to ask him why, but held a banquet. Xie Sanduo also seemed to have forgotten the purpose of coming here, just smiled and said that the guest was as he pleased, he knew that this meal of wine would not be able to run away.

[Nothing is more precious than righteousness]
What is the spirit of Jianghu? 'The strong do not cling to the weak, the many do not rob the widows, the rich do not humiliate the poor, the noble do not be arrogant, and the deceitful do not deceive the foolish.
This is righteousness.
Xie Sanduo is a native of Lukeng, Haicang, Zhangzhou, and his ancestor Xie Junli was a member of the Haicang soldiers. Once Haicang was the most important source of soldiers in the Ming Dynasty, and Guangxi wolf soldiers, Shaolin monk soldiers, Guangdong rattan armor army, and Qingzhou spearmen were equally famous.
His family, like Yuegang at that time, had both prosperity and decline. The only thing that has been passed down is the family motto left by the ancestors: when the young Jiazi is too much, he will fight day by day, and he should be honest for his own efforts, and he will only mistake his own family if he hides from his own family.
This is the same as the character of Hokkien people, they dare to fight in their bones, and they are eager for justice and righteousness. It seems that the word is part of the genetic composition of the Hokkien people.
Xie Sanduo was raised by his uncle, a gentle and elegant son, at that time because of the abduction of his seven-year-old cousin Xiao Dong, seeing his loved ones spend every day in pain and despair, and his uncle also died prematurely due to grief, he vowed to go to the ends of the earth and find his cousin.
Therefore, he mixed into the Cao Gang, and he was deeply respected because of his ability to write and martial arts, and he was promoted quickly. After more than a year of Cao Gang's career, in fact, what he experienced the most was two words: livelihood.
Because of his livelihood, he can let the boat deliberately ram other ships coming and going, and then say that the other party destroyed the official ship to threaten compensation.
Because of their livelihood, they can design to smuggle the grain into the merchant ship to frame people for stealing the imperial grain.
Because of their livelihood, they can put boats in the middle of the river, block the river with iron cables, and openly ask for money to buy roads.
Because of his livelihood, he can even commit murder, robbery, and brawls in broad daylight......
All of these are 'livelihoods'.
Therefore, Xie Sanduo doesn't understand, the so-called 'go to the soup and go to the sword, death does not spin the heel, everyone is brothers, share blessings, share difficulties, push yourself and others, from the inside out, benefit the society and the people's livelihood, and what you do is not contrary to righteousness...... Is this right or wrong?
Xie Sanduo is drunk,
In the drunken haze, he seemed to see his uncle again, and read to him with a smile: The Tao is governed by government, and all are punished, and the people are free and shameless; The way is virtuous, all are courteous, shameful and characterful...... Can you remember three more? This is 'benevolence'.
In the flash of light, he suddenly understood the meaning of this sentence, it turned out that only 'benevolence' will have 'righteousness'.
The rough man on the side was still waving his big openwork arm and punching, losing, floating a big white, winning, still floating a big white, as if the wine was water.
Occasionally, the rough man would look back at Xie Sanduo, and when he saw that he was not lightly drunk, he said with a little contempt and triumphantly: "Which liquor is stronger?" Shandong autumn dew white is also! ”
Xie Sanduo, who was drunk, heard this, and laughed loudly......
————————————
Three days later,
Fang Siwei and Master Huang finally set foot on this land that made them both envious and unconvinced, envy was that they had really seen the prosperity brought by commerce and salt transportation to Yizhen, and they were not convinced because in addition to these two, in fact, Yizhen was not as good as Liuhe, so they couldn't be angry.
The head of the Lao An Gang came forward to greet the county lord of Youxian County, and this battle has never been seen in the history of the Lao An Gang. In fact, who has never seen a person sitting in such a position as the second room of the big room? Many officials who are higher than Qipinzhi County have seen it.
And the fact that they enjoy such a 'privilege' is all due to the racecourse. The rough man is particularly obsessed with horse racing, in fact, the big house is not far behind, and he is asking experts everywhere to find purebred racehorses, thinking that one day his horse will also race on the racetrack, which is simply beautiful, and can boast to others for ten or eight years.
Fang Siwei and the others were really flattered, but after all, they were people on the two paths, and estrangement was inevitable.
The hall is still preserved, the drama is also being staged, and the wine in the hall is also being drunk. Master Huang loves wine, a cup of autumn dew is white, and he can't help but praise it, and when he goes to three or two cups, he has a big tongue.
Fang Siwei doesn't like to drink, but he likes to watch plays, so his attention has been on it. It's just that what he never expected was that it was a Yiyang drama that made him feel 'noisy'.
The literati of the Ming Dynasty only liked the water-mill tone of Kunqu opera, and especially hated the noisy and cheesy local operas, so they classified all kinds of operas other than Kunqu opera as 'random plays' or 'flower parts'.
It's just a drama that is popular with the people, or a 'noisy' local opera like Yiyang and Hui opera, and even has shown the state of a spark burning the prairie with a spark.
At this time, the performance is the classic martial arts drama "Seven Capture Meng Huo", as soon as the gongs and drums on the stage are beaten, and the somersault is overturned, the audience applauds, and Fang Siwei, who is in it, only feels that his brain hurts, especially the sudden protrusion of his temples.
If Fang County's order was sitting on pins and needles, it was not easy to leave the table, so he had to pick up chopsticks and pick up two mouthfuls of food, and then put it down, pick it up again, and put it down again...... At this moment, his heart should be sad.
Seven or eight people were at the same table, but their minds were different.
Dafang has always had a worry in his heart, and most of this worry comes from 'above', they are a group of hard-working people who are begging for a living on the canal after all, and worry is just a manifestation of helplessness and helplessness.
A casual decree from the top can change the lives of the low-level workers, and he has long heard of the land transportation reform, and he knows very well in his heart that once the land transportation transformation is successful, then the Cao Gang will become a Cao Gang without Cao Yun, which may not be far away.
When Xie Sanduo came to find it, he had a faint guess, and when he saw Fang Siwei and Master Huang, deep in his heart, he was inexplicably a little excited, like seeing a glimmer of light in the dark......
