"Smack!"

Final word.

"Since Aunt Song gave up the auction, then congratulations to Gongzi Chen for winning Zhang Jiuxu's authentic 'Baishi Night Banquet Picture' at a price of 30,000 and one taels!"

"Chen Gongzi, what a good person!"

"Oh, no, I ...... This ......" waited for Chen Ren to react, it was too late, and he had to pay the price with tears in his eyes.

"Thank you Chen Gongzi for your generosity and generosity, and the displaced people in the coming days will erect a monument, and you will definitely engrave your name at the top, hahaha......"

"Song Che, you're cheating on me again!"

You lack a string in your brain, which one will you pit if you don't pit you?

……

The charity auction ended, and the fundraising was more than expected, more than 100,000 taels of silver.

Song Che was very relieved to hand over the donation to He Qiu, and the Suzhou government handled the resettlement of the displaced people.

He Qiu's own family background is very solid, and he doesn't need to be greedy for this small amount of money.

"Alas, it's just that the picture of the night banquet that our father has in mind can't be taken, this Chen Rencai is really stupid and bad."

After the meeting, Shen Wenjun was angry.

"Madame, don't worry, it won't be long before he will send the night banquet picture to our house without a penny."

"He? Unless the sun comes out in the west. ”

"We'll see."

At the end of July, the last season of sericulture ended, and the cloth shop officially entered the off-season.

In the past month, the Shen family has hoarded a total of 150,000 horses of silk raw materials. The Chen family had been preparing for the New Year's coins two months earlier, and it was estimated that there were more goods piled up in the warehouse than the Shen family.

Whoever spends the year-old coin business, then the other one will definitely have to lose money.

This time, Chen's is afraid that it will be over.

After nearly a month of hard work, nearly 100,000 displaced people outside the city have finally completed their proper migration. The Hangzhou Navy Division also successfully recruited more than 4,000 sailors and prepared to return to Hangzhou in early August.

Song Che got up early and went to the dock to see him off.

"Aunt Song, Lord Liu has written to me several times in the past month, what is this content...... Hehe, I want to invite my uncle to join the staff of Lin'an Mansion, I don't know what my uncle thinks? Before getting on the boat, Feng Tao asked.

Song Che shook his head, and euphemistically excused: "I also ask General Feng to go back and tell Lord Liu that now that the coast of Zhejiang and Zhejiang is stable, even if Song goes, it is useless, and Hangzhou has the assistance of the great Confucians of Lingyin Academy, and there is no need for Song to introduce a businessman." ”

Feng Tao sighed lightly, and didn't force it anymore.

"By the way, General Feng, Gao Chen, is Lord Gao still in Hangzhou?" Song Che asked casually.

Feng Tao said: "Lord Gao was ordered to fight for the Japanese along the coast, and now that the situation in Hangzhou is stable, he went to Huainan as early as last month, and he should fight against the Japanese in the East Ocean." ”

Gao Chen went to Huainan, and Ning Yehong should also be in Huainan.

"What is the situation in Huainan?" Song Che asked again.

Feng Tao didn't show too much expression, but said: "When the Hangzhou Naval Division is rebuilt, my horse infantry regiment should also be transferred to Huainan." ”

Huainan, Jingdong, Hebei, and Dongying face each other across the sea, and from the number of refugees, we know that the situation is dangerous.

"I hope you have a smooth journey."

Song Che watched from the dock until he couldn't see the sails, then he sighed softly and turned to leave.

As a soldier, licking blood from the edge of the knife, every farewell may become forever.

With great power comes great responsibility.

The rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband.

A businessman, what can I do?

……

The cloth shop enters the off-season.

Private houses with few materials and new styles have been very stable in sales. Silk has to decline a lot, and the silk cloth itself is expensive, and it has always been difficult to walk.

This is the limitation of the business, not active enough, affected by external factors too much, the summer is over, the autumn has warmed up, but in the winter, most people will choose cotton fabrics to keep out the cold, silk fabrics will usher in a trough in sales.

Therefore, Song Che's plan for the second half of the year, after waiting for this heat, took advantage of the crisp autumn to go out to do business with his father-in-law.

The business is in the world, going south and north.

The world is so big, you have to go out and see, broaden your horizons, and grow your knowledge.

……

Evening.

Due to the hot and dry weather, in recent days, they have eaten in the gazebo.

The refrigerator invented by Song Che was very popular with the two high-ranking people, especially the old man, who counted the hours every day in order to be able to drink a bowl of cold wine at dinner.

"Wen Jun."

The mother-in-law looked at the back of her hand, and she knew what to say.

Shen Wenjun suddenly clutched his stomach, "Ouch, my stomach suddenly hurts, I'll first-"

"Sit down for me!"

The mother-in-law snorted, Xu felt that it was not good, and immediately softened her tone, and persuaded earnestly: "Wenjun, it's not my mother who forced you, you will be twenty-one in three months, and you will be twenty-two years old after twenty-one, how far is twenty-two from twenty-three?" As the saying goes, a woman who is twenty-three can give birth to gold bricks, and after this age, the child born will not be lively! ”

Shen Wenjun called out to Shengniang, "The doctor said, the snake venom in my body is just right, and I need to recuperate......

The mother-in-law lowered her face: "I see that you are in good spirits, you don't go out of the gate all day long, you nest in the courtyard pond, and you are not even willing to wear clothes, so arrogant and lascivious, why can't you have a big belly?" Your father and I are both in our forties this year, and we still have a few years to live, so it's so difficult to hold a grandson! ”

She simply carried a stool and squeezed between Song Che and Shen Wenjun, "Listen to me, this August and September, the days are neither hot nor cold, and it is the harvest season, at this time, if you can be pregnant with Liujia, the time, the location, the people, all three are occupied, and the son born is Wenqu Xing, who will definitely enter the house in the future, listen to my mother's words, hurry up and do this thing, don't delay it anymore." ”

Song Che only cared about lowering his head and shaving rice, anyway, his family status was low, and it would not be her turn to be criticized.

"Daddy......" Shen Wenjun had no choice but to ask for help from his father-in-law.

The old man sipped the wine bowl and said weakly: "Listen to your mother." ”

Old man, don't look at the usual sitting and not messy, every three or five times, late at night will come to the courtyard to take a turn, the beauty of the name of the walk, in fact, is to listen to the movement inside.

"Sir! Master! ”

The old butler shouted and ran into the gazebo, "Yes...... A noble person has come to the door! ”

The old man put down the wine bowl, "Where is the nobleman?" ”

The old housekeeper said: "The old slave didn't ask too clearly, only that it was a team of people, carrying the official sedan chair, with the guards of the sedan chair, each of them tall and majestic, the lord in the sedan chair, dressed in a red clothes, said that it was from Luoyang!" ”

"Yikes! Those who came from Luoyang are still wearing red clothes, they are Beijing officials! The old man sat up in shock, "Are you sure you're here to visit, not passing by before hitting the house?" ”

The old housekeeper affirmed: "I came to visit, and I got off the sedan chair at the door!" ”

"That's that...... Then let me go back and change into a golden silk silkworm robe, and put away the guests-ah no, too rich and noble to overwhelm the official master, not a lot of courtesy," the old man was so excited that he paced two steps in the pavilion, wiped his mouth a few times with a handkerchief, erected his collar, and greeted Song Che: "Xiao Che, you go with me to welcome guests." ”

Song Che put down his chopsticks and smiled in his heart, the one who collected the New Year's coins finally came.

"Dad, I also want to see what Jingguan'er looks like." Shen Wenjun said excitedly.

The old man said: "You are a girl's family, how can you show up to meet guests." ”

Shen Wenjun's small mouth turned up into the sky: "Hmph." ”

Song Che said with a smile: "Those who come from the capital don't all have two eyes and one mouth, what is there to look forward to." ”

"But don't say that, Jingguan'er is a person who does things at the feet of the Son of Heaven, and when dealing with them, you have to be cautious in everything you say and do...... So later, Xiao Che, follow me honestly, and when you shouldn't speak, don't open your mouth, so as not to lose your courtesy! ”
