The Only Favorite Ugly Husband

Hexing Mansion became more and more lively.

The aristocratic family merged a lot of land, so many farmers had to find another way out, but Jiangnan was still very prosperous, and Hexing Mansion was even more and more prosperous.

Because many people started business and even went to sea to find their way.

To a certain extent, sea trade has given many people a way to survive.

On this day, Jiang Zhen was having breakfast in a teahouse with Brother Zhao Jin and his two children.

There are still plenty of refreshments at Hexing Mansion, so Jiang Zhen ordered a little of each one right now.

Among them are pan-fried buns, steamed buns, tea cakes, songhua cakes, and tea eggs.

Jiang Zhen likes to eat the crispy skin of raw fried buns, but his son and daughter are the opposite.

Zhao Mingzhu was changing her teeth, she lost her front teeth, and couldn't bite open the pan-fried buns, so she vowed that she would not eat them.

She doesn't want to eat, and Zhao Chengyu, who loves to imitate her sister, naturally doesn't want to eat anything.

So, they are eating Xiaolongbao right now.

"Father! Yesterday Xiaoan from Uncle He's house wanted to bully me, but I beat him up!

Zhao Mingzhu said happily after eating half of it.

The Xiaoan of Uncle He's family she was talking about was He Chunsheng's son, one year younger than her, but that child was well developed and much taller than her.

"Xiao An bullied you? Didn't he like you the most? How could he bully you?" Brother Zhao Jin looked at his daughter in confusion.

"He made fun of my teeth! Said I look like an old lady!" Zhao Mingzhu said, looking extremely angry.

His daughter's toothless appearance is a bit like an old lady... Brother Zhao Jin thought so in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it.

If he said that, his daughter would be angry.

Just thinking about it, Brother Zhao Jin heard Zhao Mingzhu talking about other playmates again, and when she mentioned her playmates, she was talking about whoever was disobedient and was beaten by her, and whoever recognized her again be the boss.

Brother Zhao Jing: "..."

He is very concerned about his daughter, knowing that her daughter is just beating and beating with others, and she will not do too much or hurt others, and even when she meets weaker women and even men, she will protect them.

But even so, he still felt weird.

Zhao Mingzhu is his daughter, not his son!

A girl with a bunch of underlings... Is this really all right?

Brother Zhao Jin was a little worried, but Jiang Zhen didn't think it was a problem at all. At this moment, he was even praising his daughter: "My pearl is the most powerful!"

Zhao Mingzhu was extremely proud.

Brother Zhao Jin sighed secretly, and decided to ignore the matter.

If you raise your daughter crookedly, just raise her crookedly... It doesn't matter if she doesn't get married, he can afford it anyway.

Among the four of them, although two of them were children, they were very good at eating. After a while, they ate almost all the refreshments on the table.

At this time, Mr. Storyteller came.

"What I'm going to talk about today is King Ping of Liuqiu who was carried into the prison in a sedan chair..." As soon as the storyteller uttered this opening remark, the diners present all applauded.

During this time, the most famous person in Jiangnan was definitely "Ping Wang" Cheng Yongzhen.

For Cheng Yongzhen, some feel sorry, some sympathize and some despise him, but no matter what, everyone pays attention to this person and is willing to listen to his gossip.

"Let's go." Jiang Zhen stood up at this time.

In order to satisfy the guests, Mr. Storyteller would always make up stories and even add some eclectic things in his storytelling. Jiang Zhen didn't want to hear these things.

In fact, he has never been in contact with Cheng Yongzhen. Cheng Yongzhen probably has never heard of him, a small sea merchant who has just emerged in the past few years.

But even so, Cheng Yongzhen's incident still made him unavoidable, with a feeling of sadness.

He always felt that he was too weak before, and wanted to become stronger so that he could have the right to speak, but now that he really became stronger, he found that he still didn't have much right to speak.

Of course, this is also because he is still not strong enough.

Jiang Zhen took Zhao Jinge downstairs and ran into a few acquaintances.

"Chief Escort Jiang, Shopkeeper Zhao!" Those people were businessmen who had a cooperative relationship with Jiang Zhen and Brother Zhao Jing. Now, when they saw Jiang Zhen and Brother Zhao Jing, they came up to say hello.

"Treasurer Liu, shopkeeper Wang." Jiang Zhen greeted them.

After a few pleasantries, Jiang Zhen bid farewell.

Those people watched Jiang Zhen leave with expressions of exclamation on their faces.

"This Jiang Zhen is really powerful!"

"That's right, he was born with mud legs, yet he has the ability to earn so much money!" You said humanely.

"There is also Brother Zhao Jin next to him. I heard that he used to be a long-term worker and didn't know a single word. I didn't expect that he can support the Jin Zhen Escort now..."

Everyone said something to each other, talking about Jiang Zhen and Brother Zhao Jing with emotion, but Jiang Zhen and Brother Zhao Jin had already gone home.

Three years later, Zhao Liushi and Zhao Fugui didn't grow old. The two looked like rich men, cheerful all day long, and even looked younger.

When Jiang Zhen and Brother Zhao Jing were first together, they were always worried about when Jiang Zhen would abandon Brother Zhao Jing, but now...Jiang Zhen and them are as close as a family, and they will never worry about this anymore.

They were not even worried that Jiang Zhen would take a concubine.

They all saw Jiang Zhen's kindness to Brother Zhao Jin. Jiang Zhen would never let their son down.

Looking at Jiang Zhen and Zhao Jinge who had already passed their age, they couldn't help feeling a lot of emotion.

How could they be so lucky to meet Jiang Zhen?

"Father, mother, I'm going to the beach tomorrow." Jiang Zhen said to Zhao Fugui and his wife after eating.

"Your fleet is back?" Zhao Fugui asked. Jiang Zhen usually stays at the beach for a long time, often half a year in a year, but this time he only came back for a few days. I only left after staying for a few days, and I am leaving now, probably because of something over there.

"It's not that the fleet is back, but that there are pirates over there." Jiang Zhen said.

It has been two months since Cheng Yongzhen was caught, and Cheng Yongzhen's subordinates have completely messed up.

These people were roughly divided into three groups.

One of them is the sea merchants who were gathered together by Cheng Yongzhen. Now that Cheng Yongzhen is gone, they plan to continue to be sea merchants. The other group is the people from all over the country hired by Cheng Yongzhen. After Cheng Yongzhen is gone, they plan to go back. Farming, but the third batch... became pirates.

After Jiang Zhen learned about this incident, he had already strengthened his protection, but the effect was not good. Recently, there were still many pirates on the seashore on their side.

By the way, the pirates at this time did not only rob at sea, they also robbed on land, and fled back to the sea after robbing.

The next day, Jiang Zhen rushed to the beach.

When he went to the beach in the past, he always took Brother Zhao Jin and his children with him, but recently the beach was not peaceful, but he didn't take anyone with him and went there alone.

As a result, as soon as we arrived at the beach, someone came to report: "Boss, we were attacked by pirates last night!"

"What?" Jiang Zhen was a little surprised and looked over. His side was very tightly guarded, and someone dared to come and rob?Those pirates are too bold!

"Boss, they want to steal the boat." The man said again.

The people who came wanted to snatch the boat, but Jiang Zhen could understand that what the pirates needed most was a boat.

"How is the situation?" Jiang Zhen asked.

"Boss, last night that group of people didn't fight us desperately. A dozen of us were injured, but no one was seriously injured and died, and no one snatched them away or captured them alive." The man said humanely.

"Take me to have a look." Jiang Zhen said.

Jiang Zhen soon saw the few people who were captured alive.

These people all dressed up like Japanese ronin, and not only that, but after seeing him, they even began to chatter, speaking in Oriental dialect.

Jiang Zhen has been doing business with Japanese people in recent years, but there are not many of his subordinates who can speak Japanese.

At this moment, Daqi is the most powerful, and the Dongyang people are scrambling to come to Daqi and learn Daqi dialect, so that they don't need to learn Dongyang dialect at all-many of those Dongyang people know how to speak Daqi. Speaking Daqi's language!

However, although his subordinates don't know how to do it, Jiang Zhen does.

He listened to the Japanese spoken by these people, and the more he listened, the more he felt something was wrong.

Among these people, some of them speak normal Japanese and their accents are pure, but some of them... are simply talking nonsense, imitating those Japanese people.

Are they pretending to be Japanese?

Jiang Zhen noticed this and was a little amused.

At this time, in order to prevent people from discovering their true identities, some pirates would pretend to be from the East. Unexpectedly, they would meet him now.

"Can't speak human language?" Jiang Zhen glanced at these people with a half-smile, and then said to his subordinates, "Cut off their tongues."

"Yes! Boss!" Jiang Zhen's subordinates responded, making gestures to cut the tongues of those people.

Jiang Zhen had never given such an order before, and he would never actually ask his subordinates to cut other people's tongues, but Jiang Zhen often scares people.

Jiang Zhen's subordinates knew very well about Jiang Zhen's love to scare people, so they naturally knew at this time that he was going to scare people again.

However, Jiang Zhen's subordinates knew about it, but those people didn't.

At first they were still holding on, chatting nonsense, but seeing Jiang Zhen's men getting closer and closer with knives, they finally couldn't sit still.

"No, you can't do this!" some of those people cried out in terror.

"Can you talk properly now?" Jiang Zhen said.He generally didn't kill people, and these pirates didn't kill his men, so he wouldn't do anything to them.

But even so, he still has to interrogate clearly.

"Are you scaring us?" A middle-aged man among those people asked.

Jiang Zhen didn't speak, just looked at them with a half-smile.

These people looked at Jiang Zhen for a while, but the middle-aged man suddenly said: "Boss Jiang, I have something to talk to you alone."

Jiang Zhen glanced at him and smiled: "What do you want to say?" These people don't seem to be ordinary pirates.

"Boss Jiang, I want to speak to you alone." The man said again.

After Jiang Zhen thought for a moment, he was taken into an adjacent room.

The man was brought in with his hands tied. After entering, he looked around first, and after making sure that there was no one around, he said, "Boss Jiang, I'm Wang Ruicheng."

Jiang Zhen looked at the man in surprise. Wang Ruicheng is not a small person. He is one of Cheng Yongzhen's generals. It is said that Cheng Yongzhen's many strategies were suggested by him.

"You are Wang Ruicheng? I caught you so easily?" Jiang Zhen looked at him.

"Boss Jiang, we are also here to survive!" Wang Ruicheng said with a wry smile: "After King Ping's accident, life for us people is very difficult. People from the imperial court are chasing and killing us, and the former Cheng family's old department is also chasing and killing us. .”

Wang Ruicheng's recent days are really sad.

Needless to say, the people of the imperial court wanted to hunt them down, they were either you or me. As for Cheng Yongzhen's old department, they wanted to hunt them down...

Cheng Yongzhen has been a maritime merchant for so many years, and has accumulated countless connections and money. Once he dies, his connections are meaningless, but what about money?

Cheng Yongzhen's subordinates had already divided up a lot of Cheng Yongzhen's money, but everyone felt that it was impossible for Cheng Yongzhen to only have such a small amount of money.

Wang Ruicheng is one of Cheng Yongzhen's cronies, and they think that Wang Ruicheng should have Cheng Yong's private treasure in his hands.

Everyone wanted to catch Wang Ruicheng, but Wang Ruicheng had no choice but to shave his own hair, and then hid among a group of oriental wanderers.

In the end, he also commanded those oriental wanderers to come to Jiang Zhen to grab the boat.

By doing this, it's not that he really wants to snatch the boat... In fact, he wants to get asylum from Jiang Zhen.

Jiang Zhen felt that Cheng Yongzhen should have never heard of his name, but the fact was on the contrary, Cheng Yongzhen actually knew Jiang Zhen.

Cheng Yongzhen even found someone to investigate Jiang Zhen, a newcomer who quickly suppressed other sea merchants in Hexing Mansion.

That's why Wang Ruicheng knew about Jiang Zhen.Then it was discovered that Jiang Zhen seemed to be very arrogant, but in fact he was very methodical and would not hurt innocent people.

He was desperate this time and wanted to find a place to hide, so he chose Jiang Zhen's place in the end.

It's just that he wanted to hide his identity at the beginning. They didn't kill Jiang Zhen's subordinates, and they did things properly. He felt that Jiang Zhen shouldn't kill them, but let them do some hard work here.

After working like this for a while, they could leave when the limelight passed, but...Jiang Zhen didn't scare people when he came up, but the people under him were actually scared!

Wang Rui changed his mind and said again: "Chief Escort Jiang, although King Ping was defeated, he left behind many treasures, and those treasures are only known to me. If Chief Escort Jiang can save me, I will give away the treasures Tell Chief Escort Jiang where he is..."

"You don't need to tell me this." Jiang Zhen said: "Everyone in Hexing Mansion knows that I don't like to use Dongyang rogues, and you will leave later."

"Boss Jiang!" Wang Ruicheng was startled, he never expected that Jiang Zhen would remain indifferent to such a huge temptation.

Of course Jiang Zhen can remain indifferent, he does not covet other people's money, nor does he want to implicate his family.

The imperial court is now looking for Wang Ruicheng, such a person is left behind, once someone finds out...

Jiang Zhen didn't talk to Wang Ruicheng anymore, but walked out, and then said to his subordinates: "Those people are Cheng Yongzhen's remnant army, throw them all out."

"Yes, boss!" Jiang Zhen's subordinates glanced at Wang Ruicheng, and said to Wang Ruicheng, "Please."

Wang Ruicheng's face was full of depression, and he always felt a little aggrieved.

But Jiang Zhen didn't care what he thought at all.

Soon, someone sent Wang Ruicheng and his party out.

Standing on the pier of Yabian Village, Wang Ruicheng and his party were a little stunned.

"Uncle Wang, they let us go! Great, we're fine!" said a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy, he was relieved and looked very happy.

There was not much joy on Wang Ruicheng's face.

They have been hunted down all the time, and now they can't stay here, where can they go?

Just thinking about this, Wang Ruicheng suddenly saw a group of people in uniform walking towards this side from a distance.

There were only eight people in that group, not many people, but it gave people the feeling...Wang Ruicheng soon discovered that the steps of those people were about the same size. Not only that, they walked on the street without whispering to each other at all. , but has been patrolling the surroundings very seriously.

Before, Wang Ruicheng heard people say that Jiang Zhen's caravan was the most difficult to grab because his men were very strong.

Originally, Wang Ruicheng hadn't taken it seriously, but now he was startled and remembered those people who fought against them last night.

Last night, none of Jiang Zhen's subordinates died, but a few of his subordinates died. It's just that those who died were all Oriental rogues, so he didn't care. But thinking about it now...

When fighting, the cooperation between Jiang Zhen's subordinates was really tacit!

He has been following Cheng Yongzhen for a long time. There are many fierce people under Cheng Yongzhen's subordinates, but they will never be as uniform as Jiang Zhen's subordinates, ordering and prohibiting.

"Who are you?" The patrol team noticed Wang Ruicheng and the others' gazes, and then walked over, faintly surrounding Wang Ruicheng and the others.

After the pier was almost burned by someone, Jiang Zhen arranged more people to patrol and defend. Today, the pier of Yabian Village has become one of the safest places in Hexing Mansion. Many small businessmen deliberately Moved the family here.

"My lord, we are here to beg for a living, how are we going to live here?" Wang Ruicheng asked.

"People from Daqi?" The man glanced at Wang Ruicheng, and then said, "Take care of yourself, change your weird appearance back, and then find a job, so you can stay."

"What about the Orientals?" Wang Ruicheng asked again. There are only a dozen people around him now, and six of them are Orientals.

"Take care of yourself first, and then learn from our Daqi." The man said, and added: "If you haven't learned Daqi, you can only do the hardest menial work here. After you learn it, it will be different."

"#￥%#￥#￥&*" The oriental people around Wang Ruicheng have lived in Daqi for a long time, and they can understand Daqi's words. They are a little unhappy now-they are not willing to change themselves attire.

They first spoke in Japanese to express their objection, fearing that the person on the other side would not understand, they added: "I, we, don't change!"

"You don't change your clothes? Did you see that man? He is also from the East, but now, he already has a house and land here, and he is married to a wife." The patrolling man pointed to a man in a suit not far away. Jin Yi, looked like a very rich middle-aged man.

It is true that Jiang Zhen doesn't like Orientals.

But if those Orientals named themselves Daqi, changed into Daqi's clothes, and started speaking Daqi's language... he would be good to these Orientals.

Among them, if they perform well, they will be selected by him as an interpreter, so that it is convenient to do business with Toyo.

And the Dongyang man pointed by the patrolman was an Dongyang man who had been an interpreter for Jiang Zhen's fleet for a long time.

At this moment, this Dongyang man no longer considers himself an Dongyang man. He now firmly believes that he is a Daqi man, and he is proud of it.

The Dongyang people around Wang Ruicheng couldn't help being a little shaken when they saw the man's appearance.

That person looks so good...

They will leave Dongyang and come here because of the domestic war and the life is difficult. If they can live a good life in Daqi...

Immediately, they were not as repulsive to the modification bundle as they were at the beginning.

However, before they continued to ask, a burst of horns sounded suddenly, and after one sounded, more and more horns sounded.

The sound of these horns resounded through the sky, and almost everyone on the pier heard it. Then, those ordinary people began to hide in one house after another. Some adult men ran out of the house, and then walked towards different where the past converges.

Seeing this, Wang Ruicheng was shocked immediately: "What's wrong?"

"Enemy attack." The patrolling man said, and then began to evacuate the surrounding people, and then said to Wang Ruicheng and the others: "It's an emergency, unidentified people like you must be guarded, follow me!"

Wang Ruicheng and others were startled, and then they were dragged to a place by the patrolling people, where there were many people like them.

"Why is there such a big commotion in this enemy attack? It wasn't like this last night..." Wang Ruicheng couldn't help but ask.

"A few small shrimps came here last night, how could there be such a commotion?" Someone said: "These few people can be cleaned up casually."

After he finished speaking, he suddenly looked suspiciously at Wang Ruicheng and the others: "I heard that the people who came here yesterday were some oriental wanderers. Could it be you?"

Wang Ruicheng: "..."

Wang Ruicheng was a little scared at the moment, lest those people came to arrest him, but Jiang Zhen was fully armed and on guard at the moment.
