Chapter 18 A Friend Comes from Far Away

The reason why Tu Xuezheng was surprised was that he was that kind of extreme character, plus he was a little introverted and not good at words, so he appreciated Lin Fengjin very much for seeking knowledge and putting down the strength of his body to "drill camp", so he gave him an excellent performance.

However, he only said in his heart that most of this performance appraisal could not be discussed publicly, so it could be regarded as his private encouragement and praise for this outer disciple. Unexpectedly, although Lin Fengjin stumbled in the guild council, he actually passed it, and his popularity was obviously much better than Tu Xuezheng imagined.

If this kind of thing falls on others, it must be a little proud, but in the eyes of others, Lin Fengjin is unhurried, not affected at all, and he is extremely calm. So in the eyes of Tu Xuezheng, who was silently paying attention to him, he couldn't help but give another evaluation of "not arrogant or impatient".

These people didn't know how to say that Lin Fengjin's calm kung fu was so good, mainly because he didn't take it seriously because he didn't take it seriously

After returning to the academy, Lin Fengjin stopped the investigation of Cuijiazhuang's case at least superficially, as if that incident had never happened at all-

Because he knows the truth that the Tao is not fast.

If the time for preparation is counted, the time span of the mastermind behind the scenes is at least four or five years! I am a newcomer from outside, and although I am secretly investigating, I may not have noticed some clues.

Once the mastermind behind the scenes fights back with all his might, Lin Fengjin feels that he may not be able to cover it!

What's more, Lin Fengjin's identity at this time is very embarrassing, what qualifications does a child who has just entered the academy have to investigate this kind of earth-shattering and terrifying case that involves thousands of lives?

As the saying goes, if the name is not right, it is not good! And at this time he already has a certain clue, so he is stable for the time being. Precipitate it, and by the way, consolidating the harvest is the last word.

Of course, the old fritter Fu couldn't help but knock a few words on the side, in fact, he still hoped that Lin Fengjin would give up, but he didn't know what Lu Dao was for, Lin Fengjin also knew that this matter was not trivial, but he didn't know what Lu Dao was for, when he thought of the dead and silent Tongren village he saw with his own eyes, and the despair that could be felt from a distance, Lin Fengjin felt an indescribable depression in his heart.

That's a living human life! The whole village includes the lives of women and children!

Lin Feng asked himself if he was a defender. There is no overflowing sense of justice, but a person should have a conscience and morality!

He felt that he was now capable of solving the entire mystery and bringing the real culprit to justice, and that neither he nor his family would be harmed, so Lin Fengjin felt that he had to do it!

As mentioned earlier, next to Tianchang Academy is the lychee forest, and when Lin Feng came, he missed the spectacular scene of the lychee flowers blooming brilliantly and spreading out like clouds.

But look at how long you've been in the academy. It is also in June (lunar calendar), the weather is also hot, and in the lychee forest, the green and red fruits have begun to hang down one by one. Look, it's almost time to feast.

At this time, the rare cold of a hundred years has long passed. Don't say the south, that is, the rivers in the north have long been navigable, although there are no big rivers in Nanli County, but next to Canggui County. However, there is a Panjiang River flowing through, and this waterway is abundant, and there are special personnel to dredge the river year after year. A large ship of 2,000 stone can even pass along the way unimpeded.

The consequences of smooth traffic are twofold.

First, the Lin family's newly established shop in Nanli County began to eat a large number of goods, and the famous lychee honey and a local lychee called "Lanzhu" were loaded onto large ships and quickly transported along the developed transportation network to Xiangdu.

The lychee honey contained in a special blue and white porcelain vase is very good-looking, the azure color is clean, and the snow-white bottle wall contains the deep amber lychee honey, which is fragrant and fragrant, and can be said to be full of color and fragrance. The bottom of the blue and white porcelain vase is also burned with the words "Lin Ji".

The cost price of such a bottle of lychee honey is one dollar and three cents for a palm-sized porcelain bottle, and although the honey inside is of the highest quality, it can only hold two taels at most. In ancient times, sugar was a luxury, so the cost of two taels of lychee honey was slightly more expensive, about five yuan silver, so the total cost added up was six yuan and two cents. However, after the shipment to Xiangfan, the shipping price was five taels! A windfall profit of nearly nine times!

Others want to "cottage", but at most they can only cottage out of a porcelain bottle, but there is no way to pass off the fine lychee honey inside.

Although the lychee is not durable to hide for a long time, but Lin Fengjin found that in this Nanli County, there are many varieties of lychee, afraid of no less than hundreds, he fancy this kind of "orchid bamboo" lychee to be honest, the size is not big, the taste is also sweet and sour, and the juice is not much, it belongs to the medium to lower flavor varieties of lychee, but the fruit hanging time is still long, and the yield is not high, but the advantage is drought tolerance, and it can live when planted in front of the house and behind the house, even if it is not well cared for, it still blooms and bears fruit.

Usually the farmers will plant a few plants on the idle land in front of the house and behind the house, and the countrymen have a short knowledge, and they know that the lychee is not in good condition, the taste is average, and it can't be sold at any price, so it is regarded as a snack to coax children.

But Lin Fengjin discovered the advantage of this "orchid bamboo", that is, the thickness of the shell.

If the shell is thick, it means that it is resistant to storage! The shelf life is long! Lin Feng carefully verified, ordinary lychees are picked, and they can be kept fresh for four days at most, but after this orchid bamboo is picked, the fracture of the fruit stalk can be burned with fire, but it can be put in about 12 days.

And from here to Xiangdu by water, day and night, plus there is a military license, there are a few sections of the road at any cost, if you hire a slender man, it will only take five days!

This means a great business opportunity! Lin Fengjin directly discarded the name of "Lanzhu" and changed it to "Concubine Smile", using the allusion of the famous sentence "A ride on the red dust and a concubine laughs, no one knows that it is a lychee".

This "concubine laughs" Lin Fengjin had asked his subordinates to buy a boat in the countryside before, and had already transported a boat to Xiangfan to explore the way, and let out some rumors in advance, but before he arrived at the wharf, he directly blocked the boat by a black and oppressive canopy boat for 20 miles! The originally deserted river beach was as noisy as a busy city.

Among them, there are three boats with eunuchs in the inner palace on them, and naturally the concubines of the lord of Nanzheng yearn for the elegance of Concubine Yang in the past and want to taste it.

In previous years, if you want to transport lychees, you have to spend a very high cost to transport them with ice, and this is the case, because those merchants do not have Lin Fengjin's military background, and it takes at least seven days to clear the customs card on the way! Even if the lychees that are transported can still be eaten, they are all black and dry, and they lose their appetite at first sight. So it's no wonder that this boat of fresh lychees is so sought-after!

Fortunately, Li Hu rushed directly to the scene at that time, and saw that the atmosphere of the scene was tense and almost fighting, so he hurriedly announced that this boat of lychees was only sent and not sold.

Although this boat of lychees seems to have no income, the boat of favors that sent away is something that money can't buy, because many of these people who come to buy goods are the kind that he doesn't accept when you cry and beg to send silver tickets, which is at least ten times the value of the ship of lychees itself, a hundred times!

Well, the second thing that brought about by the smooth waterway is that the mountain chief personally informs that there will be guests visiting the day after tomorrow.

And a large group of guests.

There is a saying that it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read 10,000 books, and many academies regard this sentence as the most reasonable. Among them are soldiers, Confucianism, Mohists, Yin and Yang families, etc.,

The reason why the soldiers advocated traveling 10,000 miles was because the general had to deal with all the astronomy and geography so that he could strategize and win a decisive victory! If the students they taught were not geographically aware and were forced to let the cavalry fight the enemy on the swamps and river beaches, it would be a lifelong stain on the academy.

And Confucianism wants to go out for a walk, because there are also scholars among Confucianism who put pen to paper and take fame with a sword.

Not to mention the reasons why Wude Academy wants students to go out more, visiting the dragon vein, looking for feng shui, and exploring the earth are definitely not things that can be completed by being locked in the study.

The Mohists are known for their guarding organs, so they also have to inspect various cities, survey and map on the spot, and then feed back various data to develop the organs used for guarding.

Therefore, the students who come to Tianchang Academy are students who are composed of several major schools of college.

These students are also elite disciples in the major academies, their knowledge and cultivation have been done very well, to their own bottleneck, if you want to break through, you can't succeed in studying hard in the study, no matter how you read, it is behind closed doors, you must come out to broaden your horizons and travel the world.

At first, Lin Fengjin was still a little strange, because there is a saying that Taoism is different and does not conspire with each other, and the quarrel between Legalism and Confucianism is still very stiff, and they are all squeezed to the corner to bring development.

Later, after listening to what Senior Brother Zheng Gong said, I realized that although the major factions were fighting in secret, they didn't tear their faces after all, and they were still a ball of harmony on the table. It's like no matter how fierce the party struggle in the court is, at most cynicism will not do it, after all, everyone is a scholar, and they can't be as rude as a martial artist, but they still have to do enough kung fu on the surface, otherwise, they will be united and ridiculed for not knowing the etiquette, and their reputation will be affected.
