Chapter 466: A Wonderful Journey to Kaifeng City (7)
With the passage of time, Du Baojun and his Du family's fleet should theoretically not take too long to arrive in Kaifeng City.
In the process of such a wait, Du Baojun continued to wander around the city, so the content of his diary has continued to increase.
However, as time went on, the merchant became lazy, and the time between each of his diaries became longer and longer, but the length became shorter and shorter......
On April 6 of the first year of Maude, it rained.
Actually, I was going to go out today, but when I was eating pancakes, I met that very familiar newspaper seller.
When I asked, I knew that this kid didn't go to school because their elementary school was a rest day every Monday and Saturday.
By the way, the child secretly asked me again, saying that it was the Phantom Saint Master, and a new work came out today.
The new work is called "Crazy * Mother-in-law", the content is still very fragrant, the illustrations are exquisite, and for the first time, the Master of Phantom Saint also describes the affairs of Fengyue from a woman's point of view, which is simply another huge book.
In fact, as a serious person, I don't care much about Fengyue or not.
What I care about is the Master of Illusion, and for the unique description of life, I immediately took out ten times, bought a copy and went back to study it carefully.
By the time the study was finished, it was already late.
If I have something in my heart, I went to the Vashe alone to listen to the music, and after confirming some of the statements in the book, it was really not very fast.
In my heart, I also hope that the master of the illusion saint will be able to write some new works faster and more in the future.
Regarding such a point, Du Baojun is not disappointed.
Because Huang Yizhi, the so-called factory director of the West Factory, was in a hurry, he didn't expect that the "Great Song Times", which relied on "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" as a means to attract people, has been spreading very quickly.
According to the report of Jin Yiwei's spies in Jiangnan, in many places, regardless of men, women and children, many people have recently become fans of "Three Kingdoms".
Often the latest issue of the "Great Song Times" was just sent to the Jiangnan area with the clipper, and Mr. Cheng took the newspaper and read it.
Whenever this happens, it's always full and business is extremely good.
However, such a degree of popularity is still not as good as two books such as "Golden Vase Plum"; Although the old SP is not good at reading openly, they are very readers in private.
Even if there are already booksellers in Jiangnan, they privately start pirating printing.
However, in terms of ink, clarity and many other aspects, how can these pirated inferior goods compare to the Xichang printing factory with better craftsmen and some modern technology.
After any of the above changed hands, it could be sold for at least 30 yuan in all parts of Jiangnan.
So calculated in this way, it is actually a fund for the operation of the West Factory, relying on these small articles of Huang Fatzi who are engaged in color, not to mention that they can all cope with it, and there is a considerable part of the surplus.
So Huang Fatzi, even after becoming a dog every day, did not forget to insist on writing some new works after going back.
There are many related classics, and in addition to catching them all in one go, they also have to create some independently.
Even the title has been thought of, called "Young Hu Biao......
*****
On April 13 of the first year of Maode, it was cloudy, and after calculating the time it would take to go back and forth, the fleet at home would have five or six more days, and it should be almost there.
I don't know if it's this time, who came with the fleet at home.
In the fleet, there are grains and cloths of great value.
Yesterday evening, I received an invitation post from the Department of Commerce, saying that there are some new products released today, as well as the auction of regional franchises.
Although I am now shy of money, I can't even pay a 30% deposit.
It's also a great thing to come and see what is new.
After two more luxurious pancakes and fruits, I walked towards the business department with ease; After wandering around these days, I am very familiar with Kaifeng City.
It's also a coincidence, I actually met the concubine on the way.
Just like the privy envoy of Na Hu, his henchmen, including the noble concubine, seem to like such a light and simple approach, and they don't even bring any guards by their side.
Therefore, in the middle of the city, the concubine and the princess were also a thin donkey riding alone, passing through the streets and alleys safely.
But then again, the woman was lazily carrying a beautiful flower umbrella, and the hem of her skirt swayed slightly with the thin donkey's walk, revealing a pair of embroidered shoes and a few white calves.
For a while, people couldn't help but think of the little lady Jin Lian in the book, which really made people's hearts ripple.
Just when I mustered up the courage to go up and say hello to one or two.
Suddenly, I saw that upstairs on the left-hand side, after a window was pushed open, the three men actually pulled out a bow in their hands and shot at the noble concubine.
At the same time, there was also a man with incense powder and rouge on the side of the road, and after throwing away the burden, he pulled out a Xueliang steel knife and killed him.
Thinking that these people must be Jin people's spies, they actually resorted to such assassination methods.
Not to mention the peddler who was killed later, just three bows fired at a distance of at most twenty paces, how could the concubine and the princess dodge?
Such a wonderful little woman, today is afraid that today will be the day of her incense and jade.
However, everything that happened next, I am afraid that I will remember it for the rest of my life:
In the face of the three arrows that were fired, the concubine was in danger and just blocked the umbrella in front of her; I don't know what kind of material the umbrella surface is, after the arrow was hit, there was a sound of defeat, and all three arrows were blocked.
In the blink of an eye, three more screams rang out.
Because there were several men in the crowd, each with a well-wound crossbow in his hand; After the pull, he immediately shot the three golden men upstairs to death.
It's just that at this moment, the golden spy with a long knife has already killed in front of the concubine.
A knife stabbed the concubine in the lower abdomen, but there was no blood splashed, this woman must have been on guard and had already worn a good fine armor in advance.
On the contrary, I didn't see how the concubine moved, but she drew a slender sword from the handle of the umbrella, and pierced the left eye of the golden man, and the sharp blade penetrated through the back of her head.
Immediately, a wave of blood splashed all over the concubine's face and body.
It's just that this makes a man weak, and if he doesn't do it, his legs will be weak, and the concubine will not panic at all.
He even stretched out his flexible tongue and licked the blood at the corner of his mouth; This also made me know that this woman is definitely not something that ordinary men like me can control.
After that, when I saw the concubine and the princess again, there was no distraction in my heart......
On April 19 of the first year of Maode, it was another sunny day.
Since I met the concubine on the street that day and was assassinated by the Jin people on the street, I haven't walked out of the inn in the past few days.
Yes, I'll admit that I was scared, and the more I thought about it, the more scared I got when I came back.
Fortunately, today, I suddenly heard a big news from the dock that my Du family's fleet has finally arrived.
After hurrying there, I found that it was actually my father who came to Kaifeng City in person with the eldest brother at the age of sixty and two.
In the fleet, there are 400,000 horses of fine linen alone, and there are many other grains, white tea, pen and ink, chestnuts and other dried fruits, and Huzhou's special products.
After meeting my father and eldest brother, I detailed everything I saw and heard in Kaifeng City these days.
Subsequently, after his father and eldest brother muttered for a while, they immediately decided to take advantage of the current opportunity to go all out to the new court of Empress Maude and make a gesture of charcoal in the snow.
Immediately, the father and son of the three of us prepared a heavy gift and went to the business department to ask for a meeting with the only noble concubine and princess I knew in the new court.
After I didn't think about the place, I found that there were already a few familiar wealthy businessmen, who were already waiting.
Judging from their twinkling eyes and Hanhu's words, the purpose of these people is actually the same as that of our father and son; It seems that no one is more stupid than the other......
