The war was raging, and the most important thing for the imperial court was the merchants. A well-informed businessman with powerful means can make a fortune by means of war.

In the alleys of Kyoto, in the humble house, this matter is also being discussed.

The owner of the house was entrusted by Shen Xingwan to give up everything in Jiangnan and go to Beijing to run a business.

Over the years, Du Qifeng assumed the name Du Wei, relying on his own business talents, coupled with the escort of the forces left by the Zhennan Mansion in Kyoto, the rumors in Kyoto have risen in the past two years.

Shen Xingwan's industry in Kyoto has grown in his hands, and it is no longer the same.

Banxia was also there, when Shen Xingwan left Yannan, Banxia went south to Kyoto.

This war is a planned thing, and Banxia is to assist Du Qifeng to transfer things here.

They had to transfer the grain, grass, and medicinal materials that they could collect in their hands to Yannan.

In the past six months, two batches have been transferred, and the grain is not obvious for the time being. Since the outbreak of the war, the price of medicinal materials has been significantly increased and in short supply.

Banxia is leading people to sort out the list, "This batch has a total of twenty carts of medicinal materials, it is estimated that it is the last batch, and now the price is too high, and it is not suitable for a large number of purchases." ”

After Du Qifeng finished the calculation, he had a little news on his face, "With the previous batch, we will take a total of 10 million taels of silver this time." ”

This is almost all the net worth of Fu Jingchao and Shen Xingwan in the Kyoto area, and this time this silver will be brought back to Yannan, part of it will be used to raise soldiers, and part of it will be invested in the development of commerce.

If you want to be strong, not only must you have a strong army, but you also have to be a famous student in business and economics.

This time, after the North Station annexed half of the Daqi River, they had to vigorously discover, and all of them needed silver.

"This time, I'll ask Lord Lin to take charge." Du Qi air duct.

There is also a man and a woman sitting in the study, who are obviously gangsters, and they are people in the rivers and lakes at first glance.

The two are Yueji and Yunzhong Yanlindu, although they are water bandits, they don't know Shen Xingwan without fighting, and when Shen Xingwan escapes from Kyoto, they don't make a lot of contributions.

After that, they were on Shen Xingwan's ship and kept in touch with the people on their side.

Shen Xingwan's side can't draw out manpower, and Liuying will be thrown into the field by all of her this time and participate in this battle as a mercenary.

The huge amount of supplies and silver here must be transported out safely. A large number of manpower is required to keep the voyage safe.

The people left in the capital of Zhennan Wangfu have been surrounded and suppressed by the Flying Fish Guard, but they can't interfere, otherwise they will cause alarm.

Compared with the land, Du Qifeng tends to take the waterway, passing through the north and south of the river.

Compared with the land, the imperial court did not have complete control over the waterways. Especially in the area south of the Yangtze River, the influence of the Shen Xie family is still there, and the waterway can ensure smooth operation.

Lin Du, who has been a water bandit for so many years, has become the best candidate, they are familiar with the waterway and the water station, and even the relationship with the water bandits in ten towns and eight villages along the way is very good.

Lin Du is not hypocritical, since he has already bought and left and got on Shen Xingwan's boat, now is the critical moment, and they naturally have to contribute.

Lin Du took out a copy of the best route he had formulated after discussing with the brothers in the village, "Brother Du, take a look, if there is no problem, we will follow this route, it is the safest." ”

Du Qifeng took it and looked at it, "I don't know anything about this, just listen to you." This time, it is very important to take so much silver away, and I also asked Lin Dadang to draw out the strongest manpower. ”

"Brother Du, don't worry, I have removed 1,500 brothers from the village this time, and Yueji and I will personally escort them." Lin Dudao, this is almost the strongest force they can come up with.

There are still few people, Du Qifeng asked Banxia, "How many people can be drawn over there in Jinghong Villa?" ”

Wealth is moving, so much silver, you must have cronies. So this time, the Phoenix Order was not used, and only the Thrilling Villa was withdrawn.

"There are only a few dozen people, but they are extraordinary." Banxia Road.

Du Qifeng calculated for a while, and barely worked, "According to the news delivered by the Zhennan Palace, Kyoto will soon be under martial law, and it will not be easy to walk at that time, so we will set off in three days." ”

With so much supplies and silver, no matter how it was packed, more than 30 large ships were used.

Fortunately, Du Qifeng has also been a well-known businessman in Beijing in the past two years, and he has been doing business from south to north.

Dozens of merchant ships often travel between Kyoto and Jiangnan, and the relationship between the silver road and the management of this area has always been good.

This time, Du Qifeng invited the people from Dushuitai to the best restaurant for a meal in advance.

Between pushing the cup and changing the lamp, Du Qifeng gave a look, and his subordinates presented a box of silver tickets, about thirty or forty thousand taels.

The head of Shuidutai accepted it with satisfaction, "Shopkeeper Du is still so good at doing things, you have always obeyed the rules, we will naturally not be embarrassed." ”

Du Qifeng took a sip of wine, "This is not taking advantage of the war, I am going to make a big ticket, if I make it, I will invite everyone to drink when I return." ”

This is true, and the people of Shuidutai are comfortable listening to it, "Then I wish the shopkeeper Du a prosperous business." ”

The guests enjoyed the meal, and the people of Shuidutai were very satisfied.

By the time the meal was over, it was already midnight.

Du Qifeng was already a little drunk, "I'll leave tomorrow and get everything ready tonight." ”

Banxia couldn't help but say, "Their appetite is too big, thirty or forty thousand taels of silver tickets, and they are not afraid of choking themselves to death." ”

"Heh, pay for peace." Du Qifeng sneered, he has spent a lot of money on them in the past few years.

The next day, it was just a little brighter. There are already people coming and going on the code word, and it is very lively.

Du Qifeng's fleet was already in place, and the people who received the money from the official government probably checked it, and signaled that there was no problem to let it go.

Du Qifeng stood at the bow of the boat, watching Kyoto get farther and farther away. I feel a lot of emotion in my heart, and when I come back next time, it is estimated that things are wrong.

After sailing out of Kyoto for a day, stop at Kaedein Ferry. Most of the small boats on the boat passed through the guys, and Lin Du and Tsukihime took the people from the cottage on board.

The fleet was marching towards the south of the Yangtze River, and the road was unimpeded, and if it was really not possible, it would be stuffed with silver.

After more than ten days of non-stop fast driving, it finally landed in the south of the Yangtze River.

It is already late autumn in Jiangnan is still beautiful and beautiful, after Du Mingyue died, Du Qifeng has not been in Jiangnan for several years.

Stepping here again, many memories of the past come flooding back.

At that time, he was a young man who roamed the streets of Jiangnan in fresh clothes and angry horses.

There are two younger sisters, one is lively and cute, and the other is bright and smart.

Later, one died in the smoke and rain in the south of the Yangtze River, and the other left his hometown in the background.

Jiangnan buries their best and most carefree years.

Du Qifeng set foot on the land of Jiangnan again, "Jiangnan has been lost for a long time. ”

The people who came to pick them up were the people left here by the Shen family.

The person who came said politely, "It's been hard all the way, the ground where we live has been arranged, and we ask the shopkeeper Du to come with us." ”

This time, they only stayed in Gangnam for one day.
