When Xu Jingyue heard this, she pounced on her younger brother and shouted loudly, "My lord, my mother is very old, and I only prefer this son." If the younger brother has something to do with three strengths and two shortcomings, it will be difficult for the mother to bear such a blow. Adults just don't remember the love of their ancestors, and they forget to look at their mother's face, so let's spare my brother's life! ”

Ma Juren glanced at Sun Sheng again, and saw that Sun Sheng was also looking at him with an indifferent expression, so he turned his heart sideways, gritted his teeth and shouted, "Drag me away and continue to fight." ”

Just then, a voice suddenly sounded. "Wait!"

Everyone looked for prestige, but it turned out to be Yu Ren, who had been standing by Sun Sheng's side. Everyone was confused, they thought that Yu Ren wanted to pull Xu Laosan into the water together. Unexpectedly, Yu Ren said, "Master Ma." In my opinion, forget it! Although this Xu Laosi's nonsense insulted the adult's name, the adult had already let people beat him half to death, which was a heavy punishment for him.

As the saying goes, killing people is not too much. Now that the Holy One has always been merciful, it is better to let him live! ”

Although Ma Juren heard Yu Ren come out to plead, he didn't dare to let go. So he looked at Sun Sheng again.

Sun Sheng still didn't speak. So Yu Ren called Xu Sanshao over again, and said in front of everyone, "I shouldn't have pleaded with your brother." Your third young master framed me Yu Ren several times, and even almost made my uncle's house all over the house. But I always feel that since everyone is a fellow villager, it is better to settle the grievances than to settle them, so I will forgive you again, and I hope you will do it yourself. ”

When Xu Jingyue heard this, she hurriedly wanted to kowtow to Yu Ren, but Yu Ren asked people to stop her.

Ma Juren heard that Yu Ren pleaded with Xu Laosi again, so he went to see Sun Sheng again.

Sun Sheng didn't look at Ma Juren either, but just said in a way that was neither yin nor yang, "Since Yu Xianggong has spoken, then Master Ma will give him a son!" As he spoke, he turned around and entered the shop.

When Xu Sanshao heard this, he hurriedly kowtowed to Sun Sheng again. Where did Ma Juren pick him. He left without looking back. Xu Sanshao wanted to kowtow to Yu Ren again, but Yu Ren hurriedly pulled him up.

"Xu Sanshao, don't be polite to me! I just hope that the third young master will make less trouble for me in the future. ”

Xu Sanshao didn't even dare to say in his mouth.

After this farce, there are more people in Songjiang Mansion who come to Yu's money to save money, although the profit of saving money is actually very low, but everyone first thinks that it is safer to put the silver in the money bank than at home; Seeing the backstage of this Yu family's money village again, even the prefect was afraid that he would be like that, and everyone was more relieved.

And Xu Sanshao also closed the door of his own money bank, vowing never to be an enemy of Yu Ren again.

So, Yu Ren and Zhao Rui opened two branches in Suzhou. As more and more people came to the shop to deposit silver, Yu Ren began to feel the pressure of releasing silver at the same time. So, Yu Ren and Zhao Rui specially organized a group of old shopkeepers with rich business experience and set up an independent group. These people are specifically responsible for finding customers to lend money. Although it is generally stable, it occasionally looks for high-risk investments in order to obtain high returns.

And what disappointed Yu Ren the most was that the people he wanted to support the most with scientific and technological innovation never saw one. In Daming, there are too few such people. Merchants only blindly think about low entry and high exit, and scholars only blindly think about scientific examination as officials, and the most innovative ones are craftsmen. However, due to the constraints and influence of their traditional ideas, craftsmen often inherit their father's business and pass it on by word of mouth, and they abide by the rules and methods of their fathers, and do not dare to change it easily.

There are a few who pass on their skills to outsiders, and almost without exception follow the bad habits of the people, and the disciples keep a hand. This made the craftsmen of the Ming Dynasty very slow to develop in terms of innovation. Moreover, even if these craftsmen have a new invention, they often only think about how to use it to consolidate their current position, and ask me for a few dollars a month in front of their current boss, and almost no craftsman will think of finding someone to cooperate with or create it on his own.

Yu Ren specially explained to this group of subordinates who were specifically looking for people to lend money, and asked them to pay more attention to such craftsmen, but so far no one has been found.

Yu Ren was very disappointed, so he remembered the Xu Fat people he met in Hangzhou, as well as the Huzi in Nanjing. He was preparing to go back to Nanjing first, and then to Hangzhou, and make good use of Xu Fatzi and Sun Menghu. In the past, although he wanted to engage in scientific research, he was suffering from lack of money.

Any scientific research cannot be done in a day or two, nor can it be done with a few taels, tens of taels or even hundreds of taels of silver; It is often an investment of thousands of taels at every turn. At that time, Yu Ren was powerless. Now that he really has money, he has begun to think about this again.

So, he planned to go to Nanjing and Hangzhou in person, send them some silver, and then help them plan well. But at this time, an urgent letter from Toyo disrupted his entire plan.

This letter was brought by a merchant who had come to the East to depreciate goods. As soon as Yu Ren saw this letter, he became anxious. Because this letter was written by Li Ying, who had been lovesick for a long time.

After receiving this letter, Yu Ren learned that after Li Ying returned to Dongyang with her father, she was placed under house arrest for a long time, and not only could not return to China, but she could not even send the letter. This time, she still took the opportunity of Yahuan Ying'er to go out to see a relative, and asked him to take the letter out, and then Ying'er's relative forwarded the letter to a Ming merchant who came to the East.

The letter reads:

Ever since my father brought me back to Hirado, he has been restricting my movements, not going out at will, and not being able to take care of business matters. After that, I was introduced to several young talents from Hirado Castle, both Ming and Oriental.

I also know my father's temper, because he has a deep prejudice against you, and if I refuse to do so, he will be angry, and he will only be false. Let's just say that none of these people are satisfied. My father was not strong.

But recently, because you helped Second Uncle Xu recapture Daqu Mountain, and subdued the large and small Haikou in the southeast, and took over the old department of the Li family in Zhejiang and Fujian, which made my father particularly angry. You only know that you want to advance, but you don't know that Zhong Qi is actually secretly instructed by my father, and I wanted to borrow his hand to first recapture some of my original island bases in Zhejiang and Fujian. but was slain by your own hands.

As a result, my father was dissatisfied with your family, and he was even more angry with Second Uncle Xu. I began to become more and more intolerant of my marriage. Recently, I heard that he had a new acquaintance with a Ming descendant named Zheng Zhilong, and he liked him very much. He had mentioned this man in front of me many times. He also deliberately led me to meet him several times.

Although I still refused on the grounds that I didn't like it, my father didn't give in this time. He also dropped a cruel sentence, saying that whether I agree or not, in three months, I will be married to this person.

I have nothing to do, and I hope that the Prime Minister will come to Hirado as soon as possible to save me from the East. From then on, you will never be separated from each other.

When Yu Ren received this letter, he hurriedly abandoned the business at hand, and only explained a few words, asking Zhao Rui to send individuals to Nanjing and Hangzhou respectively to contact Xu Fatzi and Huzi to see if they needed silver. After the explanation, Yu Ren rushed to Nansha non-stop.

Zhao Rui actually knew whose letter Yu Ren received, but she didn't ask much or say anything.

Yu Ren rushed to Nansha Island, and it happened that Xu Xinsu was not at home and went to Chongming. Yu Ren was impatient, but he didn't want to leave without saying hello. After all, this trip to Hirado is different from last time. Although he had already thought about it, he would not show up in public, and only find some people who did not know the Li family to go with him, pretending to be ordinary businessmen, but the risk was still very great.

It must be known that the Li family is in Hirado, that is the boss, and Li Dan is equivalent to the lord of Hirado City. It is not easy for him to rescue Li Ying under Li Dan's nose.

In case of any accident, Li Dan may look at Li Ying's face and may not necessarily kill him, but it is almost impossible to return to China. And he is no longer alone at this time, there are so many brothers under him, if he can't come back, these brothers will have to ask Xu Xinsu.

Therefore, although Yu Ren was anxious, he still couldn't wait to come back before leaving Xu Xinsu.

The messenger hurriedly sent a ship to report Xu Xinsu. Yu Ren hurriedly ordered someone to prepare the sea boat, while selecting the accompanying personnel. Since almost all the old people of the Li family were in Zhejiang and Fujian, only one Liu Qiang came to Nansha with him. But this operation is not to fight, and Yu Ren does not plan to take Liu Qiang there.

Yu Ren was worried, and someone came in to report, saying that Huang Ji'an asked to see him. Yu Ren was overjoyed.
