It's still a little hot on the boat, and although it looks like it's almost September, once it's sunny here in Songjiang, the sun is shining in the sky, and the sweat comes down in an instant when you stand in an unsheltered place.

Yuan Rui didn't want to stay in the cabin, it was too stuffy, and now there were no air conditioners and fans to cool down, at most, Xiaohe fanned him with a fan, which was better than nothing.

Yes, Xiaohe came out this time.

Originally, I didn't want to take Xiaohe with me, but according to Yuan Rui's idea, the Lu family had a lot of servants and maids, and they still lacked people to serve them.

Besides, as a free person, Yuan Rui has not yet adapted to being served closely, you said that it is okay to take a bath to rub people's backs, and it is also a bit too much for people to wear clothes one by one.

Therefore, even Xiaohe, he didn't let her serve like this.

But this time I can't say anything, Xiaohe's statement, this time it was supposed to be to play and relax, and it was not an exam, and I wouldn't bother on the side, on the contrary, for such a long time, there was no one around to serve, what would that day become.

The Lu family has servants, but no matter how they say it, they are all outsiders, where can they be so caring, and there are some business secrets, in case they are known by outsiders, what will they do in the future.

In the end, even Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang agreed, and agreed with Xiaohe's statement very much, at least Xiaohe was reassuring, Yuan Rui really couldn't help it, so he could only let Xiaohe come out, so that when he saw Xiaohe, the second son secretly laughed, and Yuan Rui was dizzy.

On August 26, when it was suitable for travel, Yuan Rui took the three-story boat of the Lu family down the river and went straight to Songjiang.

The second son originally pulled him to play chess, but he was bored, he was originally seasick, and the river was not stable, and let him use his brain, and it would not make people live.

Yuan Rui lay down in the cabin and slept for a while, although Xiaohe was fanning him on the side to cool him down, he was still hot......

I had no choice but to run to the bow of the boat to blow the river breeze first, and take a look at the scenery by the way.

To say that the current river is still a lot more magnificent, the water is clear and the fish are fat, and even some big men who are difficult to see in later generations are now swimming freely in the river, getting rid of people, such a big fish really has no natural enemies in the river.

Before I stood for a while, I really saw several finless porpoises chasing and playing happily by the boat, which was very cute.

But fortunately, Tonghai is more than 100 miles away from Songjiang, see the scenery for a day, sleep for a night, and arrive, the time is not too long, and reading a book will pass.

Yuan Rui has been thinking about his own plan to make a fortune, and the original state-owned enterprise has a subsidiary that makes down series products, and it still has a certain reputation in China.

When he went down to inspect it, he also visited the workshop. What's more, he handled a lot of their promotional materials, and he had a comprehensive understanding of many details, and even the process was clear.

This time he heard that the second son went to Songjiang, he thought of this, the duvet down jacket is a good thing, lightweight, warm, and cheap raw materials.

Although it takes a bit of effort to process, it is not a matter of profit at all.

Besides, how cheap the labor is now, and there are not so many intermediate links, except for the profit or profit, I have to wake up with a laugh.

If this is done well, not to mention other places, it is the six southern states, and you can sell it casually every year, and you can lie flat wherever you go.

This time, the losses caused by the bandits in Songjiang were even greater, not to mention Zhougang, there were three counties in the entire Gusu Prefecture that were attacked by the bandits, including Songjiang, Wujiang, and Taichang counties.

The attack on Gusu was made up of a number of bandits from the East China Sea and Zhoushan, numbering no less than 3,000.

They are not fighting separately like Du Cheng and the Black Dragon King, these bandits generally do not dare to go ashore alone because of their small scale, and this time because of Du Cheng's organization, they are gathered together again.

At first, Du Cheng wanted them to come in from Dajiang and find a few county towns along the river to rob them, but they didn't dare, and they weren't familiar with the situation, so they thought about grabbing points around Songjiang, and if it wasn't right, they could withdraw directly.

They were very shrewd, more than 3,000 people gathered together, just like locusts crossing the border, all the way to see what to rob, after they crossed, the large and small villages and towns were not left, and people and animals perished......

Although the militia groups in several counties also fought as best they could, their role was limited, and most of them were killed.

When the guards and garrisons of Okura received the news and gathered, the pirates had already captured Taichang, and the two sides formed a decisive battle in Taichang City, with more than 3,000 pirates fighting against nearly 5,000 officers and soldiers.

The two sides fought all night, but they could not fight, and the pirates dropped thousands of corpses and safely withdrew to the sea, while more than 2,600 officers and men were killed in the battle, and all of them were wounded, so it can be said that they lost their combat effectiveness.

The people were killed and wounded, and later statistics showed that more than 5,800 civilians were killed in the whole of Gusu.

Yangzhou commanded Dong Lu to be arrested and imprisoned first, becoming the first person responsible for this incident!

Seeing that the sky is slowly getting dark, it is said that it is very dangerous to sail at night, and if you don't do well, you will be robbed by some scattered river bandits.

But the second son was not afraid, not only did the lantern hang high on the boat, but there were also a few big land characters on the lantern.

It's not been a day or two to deal with Jiang bandits, and several groups of people who live on the big river know that the second son is a master who can't be provoked, not to mention the high martial arts, the key is that many people in the rivers and lakes have a good relationship with him.

The second son asked Yuan Rui to go to sleep boldly and boldly, and when he woke up, Songjiang arrived.

But Yuan Rui just slept for a while and walked for a while during the day, where could he still sleep, so he could only take a fan and come to the front deck, lying on the boat on the floor, while fanning gently, while looking at the dark night, in a daze.

I don't know how long he sat like this, in a daze, Yuan Rui felt that there was someone around him, and when he opened his eyes, Xiaohe didn't know when, he also came out of the cabin and sat beside him.

At night, the river breeze was blowing, and it was still a little cold, so Yuan Rui directly picked up Xiaohe and walked into the cabin. After settling in, as soon as I came out, I heard a burst of noise on the river.

Yuan Rui walked out of the cabin and came to the foredeck, and saw a big boat on the river in front of him on the right standing still.

It was a tailwind, the night was quiet, and their argument was a little loud, so it happened to come over, otherwise, it would be fine.

At this time, an arm stretched out and patted him on the shoulder, Yuan Rui was startled, "Brother, this is Jiang Shang, can you not be so scary, you must know that people will die if they are scary." ”

Seeing that it was Lu Yu, Yuan Rui was also frightened, he was not very bold, and he was so angry that he wanted to kick it a few times.

The second son laughed secretly in his heart, in fact, Yuan Rui was timid, he had already found out, and said that when he watched the enemy from the tower, Yuan Rui's legs trembled and he didn't hide it from him at all, but he didn't say it, and it was normal for a weak scholar to behave like this.

"There are too many tricks on the river, and there are too many capable people in the rivers and lakes who eat this bowl of rice, so if you are not careful, you will put it in."

The second prince looked at the ship opposite, "I'm not saying that all people are traitors and liars, it's just that the current atmosphere is like this." ”

"If, I said if, if you want to do business in the future, you must be mentally prepared, no business, no treachery, not nonsense, any means can be used for profit. Between businessmen, the most untrustworthy thing is trust, so there will be a paper agreement between the two parties. ”

Yuan Rui knew that this was the second son's brainwashing again, and it was estimated that it was either the eldest son or his sister.

Seeing their boat, the person on the other side was really just like the second son said, waving to this side and shouting something.

The second son is a master of art and bold, and he turned around and ordered the boat to come over, no matter what, if something really happens at this time, it is very dangerous on the river, and if there are river bandits, it will be over.

The second son found that there was an exception, this is really not a trick, he forgot, such a big Luzi lantern is hung all over the boat, where are there still Jiang bandits who are not long-eyed to fool him, are they really not afraid of death.

This is the ship of the Sun family in Songjiang County, which has just returned from Jianye and sailed here, and the ship broke down, killing everyone.

Just now, the steward and the boat boss were arguing, and the boat boss wanted to dock first, no matter what the ship was, and let the people on board rush back to Songjiang from the land.

The housekeeper quit, and in the middle of the night, the black lights were blind, and he went to the shore, and there was not even a village around, so he might not stay in the wilderness. If you rush overnight, you will be even more blind, and if you encounter a few more mountain bandits, how will you live?

The boat boss is also kind, now the boat can't go, it's okay to float on the river, it's too unsafe at night, in case you encounter river bandits, not only the boat, but also no people.

At this time, the Lu family's ship happened to come over, and the boat boss also saw the big Lu characters, so he shouted for help with confidence. Everyone who is messing around on the river knows the face of the Lu family on the river, and if the Lu family can help, this crisis will be resolved.

The housekeeper who had just come out of the cabin saw the second son standing at the bow of the boat, and bowed deeply, "Say hello to the son, the little old man is here to greet the son, thank you for the rescue." ”

"Excuse me, what's wrong with this boat, what are you doing," the second prince was not very worried, there was nothing he was afraid of on the river.

"Childe, forgive me, we are from the Songjiang Sun family, we just came back from Jianye, who knows that the boat is broken down when we come here, and we have no choice but to ask Childe to help rescue."

The housekeeper is a little relieved now, but he is still very cautious, "Can I ask the son to move, the little old man has something important to tell." ”

The second son didn't even fight, he jumped and arrived at the opposite boat, this time, Yuan Rui was stunned, is this second son used to stinking, and he is not afraid of playing smash at such a distance.

The Sun family's ship is really greasy, if it is a simple cargo ship, the ship boss will not be in a hurry, and the housekeeper will not, it is a big deal not to want anything, this money is nothing to the Sun family, but there is a person on the ship who can't have any accidents!

Seeing Lu Gongzi flying on the boat, the boss and the housekeeper instantly knew who this person was.

Nanjian Gaofu, Lu Yu, the second son of the Lu family, the two hurriedly came over to salute, and they didn't hide anything, and they said it clearly.
