After binding the loving mother system, I was so bad

"Grandpa and uncles have already left. It's windy by the river, so you should go back too." Su Yunting put a colorful cloak on Shuyao.

The dock in summer carries a fishy smell of river water, fish and shrimp.

Shuyao stared blankly at the river. In the distance, the boat that her grandparents were riding on had turned into a small black dot and was about to disappear at the junction of the Tianhe River.

Shuyao did not turn around, her tone was erratic, like the wind: "Su Yunting, if you betray me one day, I will kill you."

Su Yunting put his hands on Shuyao's shoulders and applied a little force to make Shuyao turn around to face him.

"Shuyao, if one day I betray you, you can kill me."

Su Yunting took off a small dagger from his waist, which was inlaid with colorful gems.

Su Yunting took Shuyao's hand and put the dagger into her palm.

Shuyao held the dagger tightly in her palm, and the gem on the dagger hurt her palm deeply.

From this moment on, Sun Shuyao will no longer be the darling girl in the arms of her grandfather and uncle!

She will face the turbulent future with the man in front of her. If they succeed, they will soar thousands of miles; if they fail, they will sacrifice their lives!

The next day, Su Yunting headed north with the Jiangnan caravan.

Because he didn't want to provoke the young emperor again at this juncture, Su Yunting did not make a high-profile trip this time, but got a fake identity to cover up his tracks.

"Gousheng? Shuyao, are you sure this name suits my temperament?" Su Yunting held the official certificate, speechless.

He had reason to suspect that this was the little girl's revenge!

"Isn't the name Gousheng nice? How about Goudan?"

Su Yunting actually thought about the two names and it seems that Gousheng sounds better?

While no one was paying attention, Su Yunting hugged Shuyao and said softly, "I like this name. I am your little dog, woof woof!"

Shuyao was shocked by Su Yunting's shamelessness and said unhappily, "Please get on board quickly and stop being a scoundrel here! I will take good care of Alita."

Sure enough, someone on the deck had already started urging: "Is there anyone who hasn't boarded yet? Hurry up! The ship is about to leave!"

Su Yunting didn't even bring a servant with him. He carried a small bamboo box half a person's height and walked briskly, getting on the boat in the blink of an eye.

He stood on the deck of the ship and waved vigorously at Sun Shuyao who was still waiting on the shore. He did not return to his cabin until he could no longer see Sun Shuyao.

This cabin is located on the second floor of the ship. It is not very big and can only accommodate a bed about half a meter wide, a table and a stool.

The sound insulation on the boat was not very good. Su Yunting could still hear the busy and noisy sounds outside while sitting in the bed cabin.

"Captain, what's going on? Isn't the second floor a cabin? Why are you blocking my door with something?!"

"I'm really sorry, this is the grain shipped to Yunzhou! Right now is a time of shortage, and Yunzhou is busy fighting the Tartars, so our boss wanted to ship more grain over! The bottom warehouse is full, so we have to move it upstairs."

The passenger was dissatisfied and spoke in a sarcastic tone: "I don't believe that your boss is so kind as to transport the grain all the way to Yunzhou and not make money? The price of the grain will increase fourfold or fivefold when it arrives in Yunzhou."

The boatman's attitude was very good: "Our boss is the richest man in Jiangnan, and he has an old relationship with General Gu Nanxi. He really didn't intend to make this money! Sir, I'm really sorry for the inconvenience. I'll give you a 20% discount on the boat ticket!"

In the Great Zhou Dynasty, there were generally two ways for ordinary people to travel long distances: on horseback or by ship.

On the official road, a carriage can travel about 30 kilometers a day, and the carriage fare is two cents per kilometer. If you bring a lot of luggage, an additional 100 cents will be charged for the luggage.

Because horses cannot go without rest, if the carriage is expected to travel for twenty days, then it may need to rest for a total of five days. The entire journey is expected to take twenty-five days, and the passengers will have to pay for twenty-five days, which is almost two taels of silver.

In comparison, taking a boat is much cheaper. If the wind is favorable, the boat can travel more than 200 kilometers a day, and the fare is about 100 wen for ten days.

If you go against the wind, the boat price will double.

The 20% discount on the fare saved the passengers several tens of cents, so they said nothing more.

After Su Yunting put the official certificate and silver bills in his pocket, he walked out of the cabin and came to the deck.

Many people came to the deck to get some fresh air. Most of them were traveling merchants. There were also people like Su Yunting who were traveling north alone or with their families.

Communications remained constant these days, so traveling merchants loved to exchange information.

"Is the war in Yunzhou over? Can we go to the grassland to do business now?"

"I've never been to the north. I'm going to Kyoto this time. Where are you from?"

"Nanjun. After learning that General Gu Nanxi had recovered his homeland, Lord Zhu was extremely happy, and the entire Nanjun celebrated for three days. The Yunzhou Weekly is hard to come by! I want to find out more about Yunzhou, and I'll go to Yunzhou after this trip!"

"This is incredible! You said that the general has erected a boundary marker under Wuzhou City. Will Wuzhou City open the city gates and do business with the general?"

"If this is true, then Yunzhou will really rise! As long as Wuzhou opens the city gate, even if it is secretly opened, it will be much stronger than before. The people to the north are all grassland nobles, and they are very rich!"

"How can they not be rich? How much stuff do they steal from our Great Zhou every year?"

"If you want to make money, make it quickly in the next few years! I think Kyoto's direction is not right!"

"Hush, hush! You can't just say that! Let's not talk about this anymore! Alas, the wind direction has changed every year in recent years. Last year, it was hard to get a can of fruit wine! This year, I was thinking of going to Kyoto to bring back more fruit wine, but I didn't expect that when the spring breeze blew, the fruit wine sales point would be spread all over our Nanjun!"

"It's not just fruit wine. Baichuan Academy, Baida Express, Baiwei Restaurant, which county doesn't have it?"

"Tell me, how did the great general Gu Nanxi teach his children?! Let alone Su Dalang, Miss Su alone is more capable than many veteran merchants!"

"If my grandson could be half as capable as them, I would die with a smile on my face!"

Su Yunting stood aside and listened greedily. From the fragments of words from these merchants, he pieced together the younger sister who was a big shot in the business world, and the older brother who was famous among the elite!

The corners of Su Yunting's mouth were raised high, and his eyes were brighter than the sparkling river surface.

The merchants' words of praise for his elder brother and younger sister made his heart feel as sweet as honey.

Su Yunting looked towards the north. His heart was so anxious at this moment that he wished he could split his heart into two halves. One half would fly to Yunzhou immediately, to be with A Niang, and the other half would fly back to Kyoto to see if his elder brother and younger sister had grown up!

I don’t know, will my mother be shocked when she sees me?

I wonder if my mother would always carry a handful of candy with her to shut herself up?
