Chapter 101: Cargo Ship Accident

In the seventeen years as an orphan, Lin Ruyu watched TV series or mentioned that the ancient imperial court would dispatch troops, and she would definitely use the "Tiger Talisman".

At that time, Lin Ruyu still felt that the brand of Tiger Fu should be easy to fake. But now holding half of the Lin family's seal letter, Lin Ruyu knew that it was almost impossible for the seal letter to be fake.

This is not to say how complicated its production process is, but the two seals of the Lin family are split in half from the seal of the head of the family made of bronze. When you need to use a seal for an important matter, put the two seals together in one place.

The seal can be faked, but the cracks on the seal cannot be faked. The manager of the shop or grange who receives the letter or bill with the seal can know the authenticity of the seal by taking out the imprint stored in the store and checking it carefully.

The same should be true for the tiger talisman used by the imperial court, only half of the tiger talisman in the hands of the messenger who transmits the holy decree can be closely matched with the other half in the hands of the leading general.

Lin Ruyu traveled through thousands of years to return to this life, and when she found half of the Lin family's seal in her belt, she didn't think it weighed. But at this moment, she felt that this half of the seal weighed a thousand catties.

She did live one life longer than others, but in those seventeen years she was just a helpless orphan, full of thoughts about not being bullied, eating well, and reading well

Besides, she is only thirty-one years old in her two lifetimes. The housekeepers in the house and the shopkeepers in the shops are all in their forties. The competitors are also dozens of years old and well-informed......

Lin Ruyu clenched the seal letter and took a deep breath, looking firmly ahead. She has no way out, she can do it, and if she can't do it, she has to do it!

Seeing his niece like this, Second Master Lin comforted her with a smile and said, "Jiaojiao, don't be afraid, we just need to hold on until your mother recovers." The Lin family has such a big family business, even if the two of us are tossing and turning, we won't be able to toss it for three or five years."

Although Lin Ruyu was not as relaxed as the second uncle, she couldn't help but smile, "Second uncle, in the future, the affairs in the house will be decided by the second aunt, and the two of us will discuss the affairs outside the house, try not to trouble my mother, so that she can recuperate with peace of mind."

"Okay." Second Master Lin responded, "You are resting at home, a shipload of silk has arrived today, I will go to the dock to take a turn."

"There's Second Uncle Lao."

After sending off the second uncle, Lin Ruyu went directly to the front yard and asked the housekeeper Uncle Xiang to tell her about the family's business.

At this time of crisis, the girl can take the initiative to stand up and share the worries of the main mother, whether she has this ability or not, the big housekeeper Lin Xiang admires and respects her very much.

He sent the business ledger that had been prepared long ago to the girl, and told the Lin family's grange and business one by one.

"The Lin family has a total of 16 granges in the thirteen counties of Xuanzhou City, with a total of 3,523 acres of fields and 8,100 acres of mountains and forests; The Lin family's medicinal materials and cloth business has a total of 128 stores in 13 counties of Xuanzhou, 5 counties of Raozhou, 3 counties of Shezhou and 3 counties of Hezhou; Shipping is mainly in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, with 18 large ships, 10 large passenger ships, 28 medium cargo ships and 16 passenger ships, and ...... small ships."

Listening to Uncle Xiang gushing about how many shops, fields and boats there were at home, Lin Ruyu's thin waist became straighter and straighter.

In the past, she only knew that her family had money, but she didn't know how much money she had.

Now, even if she is calm, she can't help but want to stand up and yell twice. ….

It turns out that her family's industry is so big!

I can't complain, and I am remembered.

"Daddy—"

Lin Xiang heard the shouts of his youngest son from the courtyard, and first bowed down to Lin Ruyu to confess, and then opened the door and scolded, "What are you shouting!"

Lin Feng lowered his voice and said anxiously, "Dad, it's not good! A boatload of silk that had just been transported from Huzhou was flooded, and the second master asked you to hurry to the dock."

What?!

Uncle Xiang took two steps before he remembered that Lin Ruyu was still in the room, so he quickly turned around and went back to the house and bowed, "Girl, the villain will go first......

Lin Ruyu stood up, "I'll go over with you to take a look."

There were a lot of disheveled laborers at the cargo dock, and the girl would stain her eyes if she went. But Lin Xiang thought about it, the main mother had already given the Lin family seal to the girl, and the girl was very different from the delicate girls raised in the boudoir by other families, so he instructed his son

"The girl is going to the docks, so prepare the car immediately."

Lin Ruyu and Uncle Xiang took the six nursing homes and went straight to the freight terminal in the east of Xuanzhou City.

When he arrived at the dock, Lin Ruyu saw that the second uncle was crossed, his face was flushed with anger, and Lin Kui, the big shopkeeper of the Lin family's shipping company, had an ugly face, and there was a young man in his twenties standing opposite the two, who was not convinced, and he was also the steward of the Lin family when he looked at his clothes.

The chief butler Lin Xiang respectfully asked Lin Ruyu to get out of the car, and whispered in her ear, "The steward in amber clothes in front of the second master is Lin Mao's eldest son, Lin Ming. Lin Ming has been a steward in the boat shop for three years, and he has made several mistakes, but the head of the family did not punish him severely for the sake of his father being the old man of the Lin family."

Lin Ruyu only saw the gray-bearded Lin family's silk shopkeeper this morning, and her mother told her that Lin Mao was very business-minded and very neat. However, in the past few months, he has often had private contacts with the second uncle of the Lin family, which made Lin Ruyu pay special attention to him.

Lin Ruyu got out of the car, ignored the idlers who stared at her, straightened her waist to make herself look taller, walked to the second uncle, and called, "Second uncle."

Lin Ming raised his eyes and saw the beautiful Lin Ruyu, and instantly lost his mind.

Second Master Lin glared at Lin Ming fiercely, lowered his voice and said to his niece, "Why did you come with me?" The two hundred horses of fine silk that we brought from Huzhou have been flooded, and it is not appropriate to make a public comment."

On the way here, Lin Ruyu had already asked the big housekeeper and knew that the damaged fine silk could not be returned, and the loss was all borne by the Lin family. If people knew that the silk of the Lin family was soaked in water, this batch of goods would be miserable.

She asked in a low voice, "Why haven't you unloaded the goods yet, what is the second uncle talking to them?"

Second Master Lin snorted angrily, "Lin Ming refuses to admit that it was his fault that the silk was flooded."

Now is not the time to be at fault, but to separate the unflooded ones as soon as possible, and then dry the water-soaked fine silk as soon as possible to see how the losses can be minimized.

Lin Ruyu discussed with the second uncle, "The facts are here, whether he admits it or not, let's go back and talk about it, unload the goods first, right?"

I'm really confused, and the goods are still soaking on the ship. Second Master Lin hurriedly beckoned to the ship's shopkeeper, "Uncle Kui, unload."

Lin Kui gave up his hand and ordered someone to unload the goods.

When the soaked silk was carried out, the water was still dripping, and it was obvious that it could not be sent directly to the silk warehouse.

Lin Xiang asked Lin Ruyu, "Girl, do you want to send these to the big warehouse first?"

The Lin family has two large warehouses on the side of the wharf, which are used to store not very valuable groceries that are unloaded and transshipped at the Xuanzhou wharf.

Lin Ruyu nodded, "The wet ones will be transported to the large warehouse, and the ones will be sent to the Silk Village in good condition."

She was going to open it herself to see if there was any salvation from the soaked silk.
