"Shopkeeper Liu, a little heart."

"Shopkeeper Zhang, you're too polite, you are a friend introduced by Lao Wang, I will definitely help you send things to the Chamber of Commerce."

Having said that, he didn't hesitate at all when he accepted the Dongshan tea sent by Liu Yifeng.

There is a shortage of good tea in Dongshan Prefecture, which can be seen from the fact that the eunuchs of Dongchang gave Song Yingxing so much new tea in Jinzhou Port.

However, Dongshan Prefecture is not without good tea.

Just the year before last, there was finally a trading house that did tea trading, and successfully planted tea and built a tea house outside the city.

Tea can be grown in North America, and tea plantations were also found in many parts of the United States in later generations. It's just that the coffee culture in the United States is prevalent, and the cost of local tea is too high, so it is not as good as imported tea, so those tea gardens are also planted with high-quality tea.

On the west coast, the Seattle area of Vancouver and some parts of California have a record of successful tea planting, and the water, soil and climate are suitable for planting tea trees, so it is not surprising that the first tea house in Dongshan State appeared in the city.

The eunuch of Jinzhou Dongchang didn't know this, so he gave Song Yingxing so much tea because of the lack of good tea in Dongshan Prefecture.

However, a tea house must not be able to supply the tea needs of ordinary people, and the ordinary green tea currently named Dongshan tea is still a high consumption.

The tea sent out by Liu Yifeng is also packed in a gift box made of golden silk nanmu, and this box alone is worth 10 taels of silver, and the tea leaves inside are only 15 taels.

"Then it will be more annoying for Shopkeeper Liu."

Fortunately, although Liu's shopkeeper's ship was a small fortune ship, after he knew that Liu Yifeng had so many goods, he directly called two fortune ships of the same size, and the three ships formed a small fleet, and slowly left Jinshan City and headed north.

So the people who followed him in Dongshan Qianzhuang and Zhang Xianzhong were completely dumbfounded, and the people in Dongshan Qianzhuang could only quickly tell the situation to the shopkeeper Xia, and he was silent for a few seconds after hearing this, and asked his people to come back, ready to give up.

But when his men returned, they took a man with them.

"Who are you?"

"This adult, the villain is a small leader under the command of Zhang Bandit."

"You're bold enough, come here, send it to the Maritime Safety Bureau."

Zhang Xianzhong took the initiative to contact the people of Dongshan Qianzhuang, and he had already discovered that someone was following Liu Yifeng and them, so he had the intention of contacting them. After seeing Liu Yifeng leaving by boat and unable to keep up, he decisively found the people from Dongshan Qianzhuang and said that he knew Liu Yifeng's secret.

Hearing that he was going to send himself to the Maritime Safety Bureau, Zhang Xianzhong suppressed the fear in his heart, and pretended to be calm and said: "Don't you want to know the secret surnamed Zhang, the secret of gold!" ”

Shopkeeper Xia didn't speak, and continued to drink his tea, until the four big men controlled Zhang Xianzhong and pulled him to the door, and Zhang Xianzhong had already decided to fight back, he put down the teacup and said, "Let him go." ”

Zhang Xianzhong straightened out his collar, took a deep breath and pressed down the anger he had just been fooled with, and said, "My lord, I really know the secret of that surname Zhang!" ”

"Well, you name it."

Zhang Xianzhong's forehead was bruised, why didn't the person on the other side even show any sincerity: "Don't you listen to my conditions first?" ”

"Conditions?" Shopkeeper Xia sneered and said, "You are a bandit, and you are still worthy of making conditions with me?" Forget it, I'm not interested in it anymore, so I'll drag it out and send it to the Maritime Administration. ”

Zhang Xianzhong was not obediently controlled this time, he got up directly and turned around to kick over one person, and then fought back and forth with the other 3 people, while barely defending against the attack of the 3 people, he shouted loudly: "My lord, you are not going to know a batch of gold mines that no one knows, okay, then you will send me to the Maritime Bureau, I will directly trade with the Maritime Bureau!" ”

After hearing the words "gold mine that no one knows", Shopkeeper Xia finally couldn't sit still, got up and shouted: "Okay, stop!" ”

Zhang Xianzhong has been suppressed by 4 people, especially the person who was kicked over without defense, the voice of the shopkeeper Xia to stop was slower, he was already ready to kick Zhang Xianzhong's crotch first.

Shopkeeper Xia walked in front of Zhang Xianzhong, who was held by two men and knelt on the ground: "I can actually not send you to the Maritime Safety Bureau, although I don't have such a professional torturer here as the Maritime Safety Bureau, but it is also feasible to remove one of your arms and cut off a few fingers of you, do you think you can hold it?" If you are interested, say it now. ”

Zhang Xianzhong just smiled, raised his head hard, looked at Shopkeeper Xia and said, "Do you think I didn't expect this?" ”

Shopkeeper Xia's face became a little ugly: "What do you mean?" ”

"I told my companion before I came in, and if you didn't see me come out for half an hour, you will go to the Maritime Bureau and turn yourself in and give you the news that I have with you."

Shopkeeper Xia looked at Zhang Xianzhong silently for a while, smiled, and asked, "Your conditions?" ”

"A whitewashed identity, I'll do things for you!"

"I'm not short of doglegs."

"I'm more useful than the average dogleg."

As soon as Zhang Xianzhong finished speaking, he felt a sharp pain in his arm, and the two people who held him down were obviously angered, and subconsciously wanted to break his hand.

Shopkeeper Xia glanced at the two of them, and the two quickly loosened their strength.

"Why do you think we can clear your name?"

"It is said that the people behind Dongshan Qianzhuang are the descendants of Zhang Gelao!"

"That's just rumors."

"The rumors are also well-founded, the only money bank in Dongshan Prefecture that has nothing to do with the Maritime Safety Bureau can exchange silver tickets, even if the background is not the descendant of Zhang Gelao, it is also a big man!"

The two looked at each other silently for more than ten seconds, and finally it was Shopkeeper Xia who spoke first: "What's your name?" ”

"Zhang San."

"Okay, Zhang San, I promise you, let go of him."

After Zhang Xianzhong got up, he respectfully saluted the shopkeeper Xia, and then after the four men pushed down, he told Liu Yifeng about mastering a gold ore vein.

"The vein was discovered by Zhang Bandit, but the specific location was held by Zhang Bandit's military advisor, a short man named Song Xiance, this Song Xiance was caught by the surnamed Zhang, and this incident happened more than a month ago. After that, the surname Zhang disappeared, and when he came out again, he took gold with him. ”

"Why do you know so clearly?"

"Back to adults, when Song Junshi was arrested, I was at the scene, and I was the only one who escaped."

"Okay, I know, you go down first, I'll arrange for you later."

"Thank you, sir!"

After Zhang Xianzhong left, Shopkeeper Xia sorted out his thoughts and walked into the inner courtyard. This is the residence of his boss, that is, the residence of the person behind Dongshan Qianzhuang in Zhang Xianzhong's mouth.

But it's not that the backstage people of Dongshan Qianzhuang live here, it's just that he happened to be in Dongshan Prefecture this year, and then Song Yingxing also followed him after going to Jinshan City a month ago, so he naturally lived in his own property.

"My lord, Xia Jie asks to see you."

"Let him in."

"Yes."

Shopkeeper Xia, that is, Xia Jie, followed behind a dressed woman with his head down, approached the inner room, and didn't even look at the person sitting on the upper seat who was reading the account book, and bowed down directly: "Xia Jie meets Master Zhang." ”
