I got better with my ex-husband's white moonlight gl
Chapter 145 145
Liang Chun trembled excitedly after hearing her say this idea, "Second Miss, Second Miss! Do you really want to reopen the business? Great, great! I... I thought I would never be able to wait for this again. It's been a day."
"Boss Liang, don't get excited." Zhao Xian said to reassure him, "I just have this idea, but whether it will work or not, we have to wait and see. After all, the project is huge and costly. The number, with the strength of a family, is absolutely difficult to bear. I don't know where my father has gone?"
"Second Miss, you can do it!" Liang Chun howled in a rough voice, "What you said just now is exactly the same as what Mr. Zhao said back then! However, Mr. Zhao has opened up many joints, that is, the water transportation routes of various provinces!"
Zhao Xian was puzzled when he heard the words, "Water transport? Isn't that the waterway for public grain?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Xianci was startled, "Could it be that my father intends to take advantage of water transport to secretly build trade routes?"
Throughout the dynasties, water transportation has been the lifeblood of commercial exchanges between the north and the south.There are official canals and private canals. The official canals are controlled by the officials, and the money, grain and food are spent every year. The cost is huge, and the manpower and material resources are not comparable to ordinary private transport. Even when the official canal ships are not enough, a large number of private private transport will be requisitioned. vessel.
Since it is an official waterway, the dredging of natural waterways and the repair of ships are all borne by the official water transportation department.This is an extremely fertile vacancy, so many people want to get in.In comparison, smuggling is trivial, but despite this, the broth is enough for most smuggling companies to make a lot of money, not to mention that there are often cases where officials and privates are not separated, colluding with each other and making profits together .
Liang Chun gave her a thumbs up, "That's right! From Nan Province to Nanhai County, passing through 72 counties in three provinces, the water transportation has already been completed, and the expenses of the water transportation fleet are also responsible for the imperial court. Mr. Zhao has always had a good relationship with the Water Transportation Department... "
After listening carefully to what Liang Chun said, Zhao Xianci finally knew what the so-called business way was, but it had to be a method that "imperial businessmen" could use.
Zhao Xianci had no choice but to smile bitterly, "Don't talk about the emperor, I'm afraid that I will be beheaded by the court at any time."
It's a pity that she was not born as a man, otherwise, why would she be blamed for being a woman!
Not to mention letting Qin Muyun go out to deal with and be "taken care of" by Cheng Duo.
Every time he thought of this, Zhao Xian's words became very blocked, and the more he thought about it, the more irritable he became.
Hiding, hiding, can I just hide all the time?
Zhao Xianci paced back and forth restlessly, Liang Chun was terrified when he saw it, and couldn't help saying, "Second Miss, if you can't bear it, you can make trouble, you—"
Zhao Xianci paused, took a deep breath, "You're right."
He asked again, "Is there any news from Yun'er?"
"Master Cheng has already dealt with the prefect Yang, and escorted him to Beijing to be executed after the autumn. After Yang Shixian killed his relatives righteously, he was appreciated by the imperial envoy. Miss Qin has been in contact with our people all the time, but Yang Shixian keeps a close eye on you, so as not to expose you, Just to say goodbye."
After Liang Chun finished speaking, he hesitated for a moment before saying, "The madam and eldest son in the prison, because of Miss Qin's management, they have been transferred to a separate cell, and they are neighbors with some petty criminals. They are fine."
Zhao Xianci was silent for a while before answering.After a while, he said, "From now on, don't tell me any more news about them."
"……Yes."
Wan Qing and Shou Qing can't see them now either.
Now in Nan Province, Zhao Xianci is wanted everywhere, and rumors are everywhere.
The Linhe courtyard was also sealed off, and Wan Qing and Shou Qing found a new small house, although it was rough, it was well-equipped.
They were so anxious that they waited anxiously for Zhao Xianci to come back all day, but in the end they only waited for Qin Muyun.
It was only then that I learned about Zhao Xianci from Qin Muyun, and felt a little relieved.However, since Qin Muyun came back, Cheng Duo has been courting him all day, and Wan Qing and Shou Qing are so angry that they want to hit someone.
In fact, Qin Muyun was not familiar with him, and even only met him once when he was in Yangcheng, so he actually disliked Cheng Duo's over-enthusiasm.But there is no way right now, in order to hold Cheng Duo back, he had no choice but to hold back his refusal and perfunctory indifferently.
Unexpectedly, the more indifferent she was, the more energetic Cheng Duo became.
Wan Qing and Lei Shouqing saw it in their eyes and were anxious in their hearts, not to mention how uncomfortable it was.
So every time Cheng Duo came to invite, either Wan Qing or Lei Shouqing followed, and Fu Xin almost lost his job.
However, Wan Qing and Lei Shouqing have learned to be thick-skinned after years of travelling, blocking Qin Muyun's face so that Cheng Duo could only see the corner of her clothes, but there was nothing he could do about it. Personal girl!
In this way, over time, even Fu Xin became bolder, not afraid of contacting men, and even went in and out with Wan Qing a lot, becoming more daring.During Zhao Xianci's absence, the three girls took turns protecting Qin Muyun, which made Cheng Duo very boring.
Generally speaking, it was nothing more than rounding around, and Qin Muyun's beard and hair were unharmed.
Although Liang Chun repeatedly told the truth about the situation in the small courtyard, Zhao Xianci still couldn't feel at ease.
I also heard that Mo Zhong had found the old lair of the Huan Jimen, and it was hidden in the brothel in Yangcheng. More importantly, when Mo Zhong wrote to explain the ins and outs of the Huan Jimen, he mentioned a person's name: Luo Yao, also known as the Huanjimen. It is the previous head, the current Yangcheng Shiqiniang, Luo Yao is the stage name of Shiqiniang when she was first reduced to Fenyuelou.
Zhao Xianci was shocked, and after thinking about it carefully, it made sense again.
Moreover, according to the records in his father's handwriting, Shi Qi Niang is probably related to the court.
Her biggest headache now is the imperial court, a commoner is powerless, and the only one who has anything to do with it, Mo Guxuan, has fled early again!
Fortunately, although Mo Guxuan left, the news spread early, otherwise Zhao Xianci might not have time to transfer the property.
Now with the help of Uncle Fu and Du Sanyou, the seized Fulong Building is actually only a skeleton, and the most valuable thing is the land.However, she also bought the land with a huge debt from Baibaolou. Now that it is seized, the debt will naturally not be repaid, so she can only use the land as collateral.The left and right Baibaolou itself is also a business of the royal family, and Zhao Xianci did not lose money.
Zhao Xianci didn't intend to sit still and wait for death, Kong was here waiting for the court's sanction.
She tossed and turned and couldn't sleep at night, and after thinking about it, she finally made up her mind to take Qin Muyun and go straight to Nanhai County.
As for the business route through the sea, since her father intends to take advantage of the water transport, it will not work for the commoner Zhao Xianci. How can a girl obtain fame and obtain the imperial merchant's convenience?
Just because she can't, doesn't mean someone can't.
It was night, Zhao Xianci took Liang Chun to find Luo Yao outside the city.
If it wasn't for the news from Mo Zhong, who would have guessed that the so-called Luo Yao turned out to be Seventeen Niangs!Although he can't be sure what she said she came to Nan Province secretly, but after thinking about it before and after Zhao Xian's words, and thinking about his father's record, he has a guess in his heart.
Outside the city, under the shadow of night, Tai'an Town was as quiet as ever.
It's just a quiet street east, and a house is always lit with lights.
It was where Luo Yao was.
As if she knew Zhao Xianci was coming, Shi Qi Niang's door closed slightly, Zhao Xianci pushed lightly, and entered.
"Oh, Boss Zhao, why did you visit so suddenly in the middle of the night?" Luo Yao said with a frightened expression on her face, "You——what do you want to do to me?"
Unmoved by Zhao Xianci, he said calmly, "Seventeen Niang, I hope your performance can be more sincere, maybe I believe more."
Seventeen Niang laughed, "It's been a long time since I saw you, Miss Zhao is much smarter." She smiled and tore off the mask on her face, and threw it aside, "Why, I came here late at night, I figured it out, you want to be nice to me ?"
"Exactly."
After Zhao Xianci said it calmly, Seventeen Niang was still in a daze, and then twisted her waist enchantingly for a moment, "Really?"
Expecting her to be like this, Zhao Xianci stepped back calmly, and Liang Chun stood in front.
Seventeen Niang walked halfway and had to stop, but habitually cast a wink at Liang Chun.
Liang Chun's face did not change, he still stood in front of Zhao Xianci with a tiger face, but from the perspective of Zhao Xianci, it was obvious that Liang Chun's ears were completely red.
"Miss Zhao, what does this mean?"
Seventeen Niang lazily sat back with her waist twisted, her expression displeased.
"Now that we've come to this point, let's open the skylight and speak out." Zhao Xian said, "It's not me you are interested in, but my father's investigation of you back then, isn't it? You don't know that my father found out How many things will reveal your details, so I have been uneasy until I met me in Yangcheng."
"You didn't give up your attention to my family, so you were able to find out my identity easily and quickly. This not only shows that you have been paying attention to my family, but also shows that your backstage is even bigger than Qin Yushi's." Zhao Xian said. Eyebrows whispered, although it was a guess but a very firm tone, "Miss Feng, am I right?"
As soon as the word "Miss Feng" came out, Seventeen Niang's face became visibly gloomy.
"What do you want to do?" She said in a cold tone, "Are you not afraid that I will kill you?"
"Seventeen Niangs don't need to be like this," Zhao Xian said confidently, "Now that my identity is exposed and my life is hanging by a thread, how can I be afraid of one more person who wants to kill me? Besides, I have a good business to do with you, indeed. I have come to ask you for peace."
Seventeen Niang sneered, "Oh?"
She doesn't believe it.If it is said that before Zhao Xianci's identity was not revealed, she still had room for negotiation, but now, Shi Qiniang doesn't think Zhao Xianci is so kind.If it's business, I'm afraid it's to threaten her.
Thinking about it this way, Shi Qi Niang hated Zhao Zixing even more, and wished he could dig someone's grave and flog his corpse!It's a pity that Zhao Zixing has no bones left, only a clothes tomb for future generations to support, which really can't relieve the hatred.
Zhao Xianci actually came to discuss business.
Shi Qi Niang's property shop is so big, it is impossible without the support of the court.
Anyway, Liu Zhen is also a prince, even if the Qin family is a family, it is not as close as the royal family.
Although... Shi Qi Niang lost her life to her father back then, and everyone thought she was going to break with Liu Zhen, but after Zhao Xianci asked Mo Zhong, even though it was hard to believe, she still had to admit that Shi Qi Niang probably had her whole life. Can't escape the palm of Liu Zhen.
The backer behind her is none other than the Seventeenth Prince Liu Zhen.
Back then, Liu Zhen had not yet been knighted, but it was precisely because of this that Liu Zhen went south. After that, with the hard work of Seventeen Niangs, Liu Zhen had money and wealth, and soon stood out in front of the emperor. Le Wang.Ordinarily, most of the relatives and nobles in the court and China have their own properties, but there are not many who can be as rich as Liu Zhen.
All of this is managed by his daughter Feng Min and today's Shiqi Niang.
Liu Zhen is behind Shiqi Niang, which means that Shi Qi Niang may be able to get the right to use water transportation.
In other words, if nothing happened to the Qin family, Zhao Xianci could have asked Qin Zhihan for help.But now, the few families related to Zhou's family can't protect themselves. If there is enough power in the south of the Yangtze River and someone he knows, Zhao Xianci can only think of Seventeen Niangs.
So, she took out the transcript of the business road map and handed it to Shi Qiniang.
Seventeen Niang took it casually, first rolled her eyes casually, then hurriedly sat upright, looked carefully for a long time, and couldn't help showing a look of shock, "What... what do you want?"
"Since ancient times, water transportation has been the most profitable business, and it is also controlled by the imperial court." Zhao Xianci lowered his head, "Every year, a large amount of money, food, silk and tea are transported from Jiangnan to Beijing, and they are all transported by water. However, there are not enough official ships. It is necessary to requisition civilian ships. It can be said that the government and the people are difficult to distinguish between water transport, and if we can use the convenience of water transport to expand smuggling, the benefits will be far beyond the comparison of ordinary business.”
In fact, the more he knew about his father and Seventeen Niang's respective industries, the more chilling Zhao Xianci became.She also understood that if she wanted to make money and make a lot of money, she had nothing to do with the court.Not to mention Zhao Zixing and Shi Qiniang, but she herself, if she hadn't taken the title of Yushi's son-in-law, wouldn't it be so easy to do business in Fulonglou?
Although the imperial court does not allow the common people to engage in business, business still needs to be developed, so the officials take the lead. Unfortunately, the imperial court has the final say on everything, and the common people are even more miserable.
And water transportation is definitely the most profitable among all industries.
"The so-called opening up business channels is actually nothing more than uniting shipping companies from all over the world for mutual benefit, and gaining the benefits of trading with the convenience of transportation. But if you want to unite with major shipping companies, you must have a strong background." Therefore, the imperial merchant and fourth-rank buyer Zhao Self-examination is fine, but Shi Qi Niang, who is a commoner on the surface and actually relies on the royal family as the princess, can do it, but Zhao Xianci, who is really helpless, can't.Zhao Xian made a long story short, "From Nan Province to Nanhai County, 72 counties in the three provinces, my father has already made one-third of his friends, and I would like to hand them all over to you."
Seventeen Niang couldn't hold back her excitement, but she forced herself to be calm and said, "Then, what do you want?"
"I don't want much. Compared with what you can get from this one-third of the water transportation, it's just a drop in the bucket." Zhao Xian paused, "I just want you to do two things for me. One, send me and my wife away." Arrive safely in Nanhai County, two, build a boat for me in Nanhai County, there must be at least [-] boats."
Seventeen Niang fell silent.
A shipping company with twenty ships is not too big or small, but it also requires a lot of money, but compared with the income from water transportation, it is indeed a drop in the bucket.
"How do I know, do you really have this one-third water transport, or are you bluffing me?"
After Shi Qiniang finished speaking, Liang Chun took out a wooden box from his bosom with a cold face, opened it and placed it in front of Shi Qi Niang.
There are three jade plaques neatly placed in the wooden box, "This is the jade seal that Mr. Zhao cooperated with the three major shipping companies in Southern Province. With this seal, we can communicate with the three major shipping companies."
Seventeen Niang reached out to take it, but Liang Chun took it back expressionlessly, leaving her hand empty.
Zhao Xian said, "I'm in a hurry, you can have a day to think about it, and give me an answer in a day, otherwise, I will find someone else."
"There's nothing to consider," Seventeen Niang stood up, "Anyone will agree to such a good deal. But I have a condition, you must give me a jade seal first, and let me confirm that it is indeed valid. "
Zhao Xian didn't change his face, and handed the jade seal with Chunhe Dock on the back to Shi Qi Niang.
"Boss Zhao is refreshing!" Seventeen Niang said, "Since that's the case, I'm not going to make a fuss. Give me three days to prepare, and see you at Nanxing Ferry in three days' time."
***
On the way back, Liang Chun couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief, "Second Miss, fortunately, the boat you gave to that girl is our own boat, otherwise, it's not certain whether the other two boats will listen or not."
After all, Zhao Zixing has been away for so many years.
Nanrun Liangzhuang has not gone through the waterway for more than ten years, and it is not known whether there are still enough jade seals.
Zhao Xianci smiled and said, "Otherwise, why do you think I gave her the jade seal of Chunhe Dock?"
She wanted to go to sea, so naturally she needed a boat.But only the boat is not enough, there must be a shore, so the boat is needed.
Liang Chun is willing to leave this place with her, but he can't let go of Chunhe's business for so many years. If that's the case, it's better to move the boat company away together.
Giving the Seventeen Niang Jade Seal is just a right to use it. The real helm of Chunhe Shipping is the Zhao family.
But even so, Shi Qi Niang did not suffer a loss, after all, Chunhe Dockyard had considerable influence in the southern province.
In general, Shi Qi Niang's actual income is only a profit equivalent to the value of a shipping company with [-] boats. However, if Shi Qi Niang can rebuild the old relationship with the other two by relying on jade cards, that's another story.It's just that this is not within the jurisdiction of Zhao Xianci, things have been given, whether it can work or not depends on Shi Qiniang's ability.
Right now, Shiqi Niang doesn't know the twists and turns. Zhao Zixing acts in secret. No one knows the relationship between Chunhe Chuanxing and Zhao's family.
However, when Zhao Xianci and Qin Muyun were safely transported to the South China Sea, and the other two jade seals were obtained at the expense of a boat company, Shi Qiniang knew that she had been fooled as soon as she got in touch with the two.So he cursed angrily on the spot, wishing he could tear up Zhao Xianci—although there was no loss, but Zhao Xianci borrowed the name of King Qi Le and arrived safely in Nanhai County, making Shi Qiniang want to sell it after regretting it. She can't.
He didn't even dare to let King Qi Le know that someone had taken advantage of his prestige, so he secretly scolded Zhao Xianci and her father bloody together, and was so annoyed that he once again wanted to dig Zhao Zixing's clothes to relieve his hatred.
Right now, Zhao Xian didn't delay her speech. For the sake of safety, she kept going out as little as possible, and only asked Liang Chun to pass the message to Qin Muyun.
In the southern province, everything that needs to be explained has been clearly explained. The merchants of Fulong Building have been transferred out by He Fu, and are temporarily under the jurisdiction of He Fu and Lei Shouqing; the restaurant is in charge of Du Sanyou, with Wan Qing assisting; The Wei School was handed over to Wei Qingmei and Mo Xiaoxing, and now Wei Qingmei is teaching normally.
At the same time, in order to diversify risks and try not to attract attention, Zhao Xianci reinvested most of the profits from Fulong Building into the properties of Du Sanyou and He Fu, and a small part of the cooperative funds with the merchants of Fulong Building, which made her seem penniless , and also owed a whole lot of debt to Baibao Bank.
Soon, three days later.
Wan Qing and Shou Qing already knew that they were going to leave, and they wanted to go together, but Zhao Xianci arranged for them properly, each of them had a burden on their shoulders, and they couldn't leave for a while.
Zhao Xianci was waiting at the ferry, Qin Muyun had already changed into a new outfit, and came alone in order not to attract attention.
When he saw someone from a distance, Zhao Xianci's heart jumped out of excitement, and he couldn't help but go up to him, "Yun'er!"
He easily hugged the person in his arms.
Qin Muyun smiled and said, "You are so capable, the imperial court is still looking for you, and you dare to go by water."
Although he already knew the deal between Zhao Xianci and Shi Qi Niang, Qin Muyun was still terrified.
"Don't worry," Zhao Xianci flashed the sign in his hand, which is the symbol of Prince Qi Le's Mansion, "Not only that, even our boat and the people on board belong to the Palace, it's no wonder that someone dares to check along the way."
Qin Muyun's eyes were full of nostalgia and admiration, he held her hand and said, "We'd better be careful."
"Naturally." Zhao Xianci pointed to the person standing quietly next to her, "Boss Liang will go with us."
Liang Chun was dressed simply, no different from ordinary servants.But in fact, he followed Zhao Xianci's suggestion and picked five or six thugs. Although they looked a bit old, they were still agile.Liang Chun didn't know that these five or six people were the list that Zhao Xianci asked for from He Fu, and they were all dead men secretly cultivated by Zhao Zixing.
When the moon was in the sky, the official ship of Prince Qi Le's Mansion quietly left the ferry, no one thought that there were people wanted by the court hidden in this official ship.
Because it was the official ship of the dignitaries, there was hardly any obstruction along the way, even if there were some small storms, it was nothing but a surprise.
After leaving Nan Province, they left in an open and aboveboard manner, deliberately avoiding concealment, because both of them were from official family members, and their posture and posture were the most appropriate, so that this escape was like a simple trip.
However, Xianggui still ran for his life, and did not dare to delay all the way. It took about four months to land in Nanhai County.
The scenery in the South China Sea is even more different from that in the south of the Yangtze River, and the heat is scorching as soon as you get off the boat.What's more, along the way, all parts of the south gradually entered the flood season, so that the sea gradually became fierce, and they narrowly escaped this catastrophe.
Zhao Xianci was very thankful that he made a decisive decision and ran early.
Otherwise, I am afraid that a few days later, there will be many dangers due to the flood season along the way.
Little did they know that just after King Qi Le's boat docked, someone reported it to the King of Nanhai County.
The Eldest Princess Liu Runyue is now the princess of Nanhai County, and also the president of the union of all major shipping companies in the South China Sea.Hearing the letter reported by his subordinates, he pursed his lips and said strangely, "Is the old seventeen's hand stretched so long?"
The county king said, "I don't know what the Seventeenth Prince sent someone here for?"
"What good can there be?" Wang Hao hated this Seventeenth Brother very much. "He has always been the most absurd, with countless ignorance. I have always hated dealing with him. Old Seventeen knows it too. Why did he come to us now?" ?”
"Don't worry about any changes in the court," the county king reassured, "The sixth princess only talked about escaping marriage, but according to my informant's report, there seems to be a storm in Beijing."
The eldest princess smiled, "That has nothing to do with us. Besides, since Xuan'er only said that she wanted to escape marriage, we don't need to ask more questions."
But regarding King Qi Le's ship arriving in the South China Sea, the eldest princess and the county king still sent people to pay close attention, mainly because they were worried that the seventeenth prince would do something ridiculous again.
"Boss Liang, don't get excited." Zhao Xian said to reassure him, "I just have this idea, but whether it will work or not, we have to wait and see. After all, the project is huge and costly. The number, with the strength of a family, is absolutely difficult to bear. I don't know where my father has gone?"
"Second Miss, you can do it!" Liang Chun howled in a rough voice, "What you said just now is exactly the same as what Mr. Zhao said back then! However, Mr. Zhao has opened up many joints, that is, the water transportation routes of various provinces!"

Unmoved by Zhao Xianci, he said calmly, "Seventeen Niang, I hope your performance can be more sincere, maybe I believe more."
Seventeen Niang laughed, "It's been a long time since I saw you, Miss Zhao is much smarter." She smiled and tore off the mask on her face, and threw it aside, "Why, I came here late at night, I figured it out, you want to be nice to me ?"
"Exactly."
After Zhao Xianci said it calmly, Seventeen Niang was still in a daze, and then twisted her waist enchantingly for a moment, "Really?"
Expecting her to be like this, Zhao Xianci stepped back calmly, and Liang Chun stood in front.
Seventeen Niang walked halfway and had to stop, but habitually cast a wink at Liang Chun.
Liang Chun's face did not change, he still stood in front of Zhao Xianci with a tiger face, but from the perspective of Zhao Xianci, it was obvious that Liang Chun's ears were completely red.
"Miss Zhao, what does this mean?"
Seventeen Niang lazily sat back with her waist twisted, her expression displeased.
"Now that we've come to this point, let's open the skylight and speak out." Zhao Xian said, "It's not me you are interested in, but my father's investigation of you back then, isn't it? You don't know that my father found out How many things will reveal your details, so I have been uneasy until I met me in Yangcheng."
"You didn't give up your attention to my family, so you were able to find out my identity easily and quickly. This not only shows that you have been paying attention to my family, but also shows that your backstage is even bigger than Qin Yushi's." Zhao Xian said. Eyebrows whispered, although it was a guess but a very firm tone, "Miss Feng, am I right?"
As soon as the word "Miss Feng" came out, Seventeen Niang's face became visibly gloomy.
"What do you want to do?" She said in a cold tone, "Are you not afraid that I will kill you?"
"Seventeen Niangs don't need to be like this," Zhao Xian said confidently, "Now that my identity is exposed and my life is hanging by a thread, how can I be afraid of one more person who wants to kill me? Besides, I have a good business to do with you, indeed. I have come to ask you for peace."
Seventeen Niang sneered, "Oh?"
She doesn't believe it.If it is said that before Zhao Xianci's identity was not revealed, she still had room for negotiation, but now, Shi Qiniang doesn't think Zhao Xianci is so kind.If it's business, I'm afraid it's to threaten her.
Thinking about it this way, Shi Qi Niang hated Zhao Zixing even more, and wished he could dig someone's grave and flog his corpse!It's a pity that Zhao Zixing has no bones left, only a clothes tomb for future generations to support, which really can't relieve the hatred.
Zhao Xianci actually came to discuss business.
Shi Qi Niang's property shop is so big, it is impossible without the support of the court.
Anyway, Liu Zhen is also a prince, even if the Qin family is a family, it is not as close as the royal family.
Although... Shi Qi Niang lost her life to her father back then, and everyone thought she was going to break with Liu Zhen, but after Zhao Xianci asked Mo Zhong, even though it was hard to believe, she still had to admit that Shi Qi Niang probably had her whole life. Can't escape the palm of Liu Zhen.
The backer behind her is none other than the Seventeenth Prince Liu Zhen.
Back then, Liu Zhen had not yet been knighted, but it was precisely because of this that Liu Zhen went south. After that, with the hard work of Seventeen Niangs, Liu Zhen had money and wealth, and soon stood out in front of the emperor. Le Wang.Ordinarily, most of the relatives and nobles in the court and China have their own properties, but there are not many who can be as rich as Liu Zhen.
All of this is managed by his daughter Feng Min and today's Shiqi Niang.
Liu Zhen is behind Shiqi Niang, which means that Shi Qi Niang may be able to get the right to use water transportation.
In other words, if nothing happened to the Qin family, Zhao Xianci could have asked Qin Zhihan for help.But now, the few families related to Zhou's family can't protect themselves. If there is enough power in the south of the Yangtze River and someone he knows, Zhao Xianci can only think of Seventeen Niangs.
So, she took out the transcript of the business road map and handed it to Shi Qiniang.
Seventeen Niang took it casually, first rolled her eyes casually, then hurriedly sat upright, looked carefully for a long time, and couldn't help showing a look of shock, "What... what do you want?"
"Since ancient times, water transportation has been the most profitable business, and it is also controlled by the imperial court." Zhao Xianci lowered his head, "Every year, a large amount of money, food, silk and tea are transported from Jiangnan to Beijing, and they are all transported by water. However, there are not enough official ships. It is necessary to requisition civilian ships. It can be said that the government and the people are difficult to distinguish between water transport, and if we can use the convenience of water transport to expand smuggling, the benefits will be far beyond the comparison of ordinary business.”
In fact, the more he knew about his father and Seventeen Niang's respective industries, the more chilling Zhao Xianci became.She also understood that if she wanted to make money and make a lot of money, she had nothing to do with the court.Not to mention Zhao Zixing and Shi Qiniang, but she herself, if she hadn't taken the title of Yushi's son-in-law, wouldn't it be so easy to do business in Fulonglou?
Although the imperial court does not allow the common people to engage in business, business still needs to be developed, so the officials take the lead. Unfortunately, the imperial court has the final say on everything, and the common people are even more miserable.
And water transportation is definitely the most profitable among all industries.
"The so-called opening up business channels is actually nothing more than uniting shipping companies from all over the world for mutual benefit, and gaining the benefits of trading with the convenience of transportation. But if you want to unite with major shipping companies, you must have a strong background." Therefore, the imperial merchant and fourth-rank buyer Zhao Self-examination is fine, but Shi Qi Niang, who is a commoner on the surface and actually relies on the royal family as the princess, can do it, but Zhao Xianci, who is really helpless, can't.Zhao Xian made a long story short, "From Nan Province to Nanhai County, 72 counties in the three provinces, my father has already made one-third of his friends, and I would like to hand them all over to you."
Seventeen Niang couldn't hold back her excitement, but she forced herself to be calm and said, "Then, what do you want?"
"I don't want much. Compared with what you can get from this one-third of the water transportation, it's just a drop in the bucket." Zhao Xian paused, "I just want you to do two things for me. One, send me and my wife away." Arrive safely in Nanhai County, two, build a boat for me in Nanhai County, there must be at least [-] boats."
Seventeen Niang fell silent.
A shipping company with twenty ships is not too big or small, but it also requires a lot of money, but compared with the income from water transportation, it is indeed a drop in the bucket.
"How do I know, do you really have this one-third water transport, or are you bluffing me?"
After Shi Qiniang finished speaking, Liang Chun took out a wooden box from his bosom with a cold face, opened it and placed it in front of Shi Qi Niang.
There are three jade plaques neatly placed in the wooden box, "This is the jade seal that Mr. Zhao cooperated with the three major shipping companies in Southern Province. With this seal, we can communicate with the three major shipping companies."
Seventeen Niang reached out to take it, but Liang Chun took it back expressionlessly, leaving her hand empty.
Zhao Xian said, "I'm in a hurry, you can have a day to think about it, and give me an answer in a day, otherwise, I will find someone else."
"There's nothing to consider," Seventeen Niang stood up, "Anyone will agree to such a good deal. But I have a condition, you must give me a jade seal first, and let me confirm that it is indeed valid. "
Zhao Xian didn't change his face, and handed the jade seal with Chunhe Dock on the back to Shi Qi Niang.
"Boss Zhao is refreshing!" Seventeen Niang said, "Since that's the case, I'm not going to make a fuss. Give me three days to prepare, and see you at Nanxing Ferry in three days' time."
***
On the way back, Liang Chun couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief, "Second Miss, fortunately, the boat you gave to that girl is our own boat, otherwise, it's not certain whether the other two boats will listen or not."
After all, Zhao Zixing has been away for so many years.
Nanrun Liangzhuang has not gone through the waterway for more than ten years, and it is not known whether there are still enough jade seals.
Zhao Xianci smiled and said, "Otherwise, why do you think I gave her the jade seal of Chunhe Dock?"
She wanted to go to sea, so naturally she needed a boat.But only the boat is not enough, there must be a shore, so the boat is needed.
Liang Chun is willing to leave this place with her, but he can't let go of Chunhe's business for so many years. If that's the case, it's better to move the boat company away together.
Giving the Seventeen Niang Jade Seal is just a right to use it. The real helm of Chunhe Shipping is the Zhao family.
But even so, Shi Qi Niang did not suffer a loss, after all, Chunhe Dockyard had considerable influence in the southern province.
In general, Shi Qi Niang's actual income is only a profit equivalent to the value of a shipping company with [-] boats. However, if Shi Qi Niang can rebuild the old relationship with the other two by relying on jade cards, that's another story.It's just that this is not within the jurisdiction of Zhao Xianci, things have been given, whether it can work or not depends on Shi Qiniang's ability.
Right now, Shiqi Niang doesn't know the twists and turns. Zhao Zixing acts in secret. No one knows the relationship between Chunhe Chuanxing and Zhao's family.
However, when Zhao Xianci and Qin Muyun were safely transported to the South China Sea, and the other two jade seals were obtained at the expense of a boat company, Shi Qiniang knew that she had been fooled as soon as she got in touch with the two.So he cursed angrily on the spot, wishing he could tear up Zhao Xianci—although there was no loss, but Zhao Xianci borrowed the name of King Qi Le and arrived safely in Nanhai County, making Shi Qiniang want to sell it after regretting it. She can't.
He didn't even dare to let King Qi Le know that someone had taken advantage of his prestige, so he secretly scolded Zhao Xianci and her father bloody together, and was so annoyed that he once again wanted to dig Zhao Zixing's clothes to relieve his hatred.
Right now, Zhao Xian didn't delay her speech. For the sake of safety, she kept going out as little as possible, and only asked Liang Chun to pass the message to Qin Muyun.
In the southern province, everything that needs to be explained has been clearly explained. The merchants of Fulong Building have been transferred out by He Fu, and are temporarily under the jurisdiction of He Fu and Lei Shouqing; the restaurant is in charge of Du Sanyou, with Wan Qing assisting; The Wei School was handed over to Wei Qingmei and Mo Xiaoxing, and now Wei Qingmei is teaching normally.
At the same time, in order to diversify risks and try not to attract attention, Zhao Xianci reinvested most of the profits from Fulong Building into the properties of Du Sanyou and He Fu, and a small part of the cooperative funds with the merchants of Fulong Building, which made her seem penniless , and also owed a whole lot of debt to Baibao Bank.
Soon, three days later.
Wan Qing and Shou Qing already knew that they were going to leave, and they wanted to go together, but Zhao Xianci arranged for them properly, each of them had a burden on their shoulders, and they couldn't leave for a while.
Zhao Xianci was waiting at the ferry, Qin Muyun had already changed into a new outfit, and came alone in order not to attract attention.
When he saw someone from a distance, Zhao Xianci's heart jumped out of excitement, and he couldn't help but go up to him, "Yun'er!"
He easily hugged the person in his arms.
Qin Muyun smiled and said, "You are so capable, the imperial court is still looking for you, and you dare to go by water."
Although he already knew the deal between Zhao Xianci and Shi Qi Niang, Qin Muyun was still terrified.
"Don't worry," Zhao Xianci flashed the sign in his hand, which is the symbol of Prince Qi Le's Mansion, "Not only that, even our boat and the people on board belong to the Palace, it's no wonder that someone dares to check along the way."
Qin Muyun's eyes were full of nostalgia and admiration, he held her hand and said, "We'd better be careful."
"Naturally." Zhao Xianci pointed to the person standing quietly next to her, "Boss Liang will go with us."
Liang Chun was dressed simply, no different from ordinary servants.But in fact, he followed Zhao Xianci's suggestion and picked five or six thugs. Although they looked a bit old, they were still agile.Liang Chun didn't know that these five or six people were the list that Zhao Xianci asked for from He Fu, and they were all dead men secretly cultivated by Zhao Zixing.
When the moon was in the sky, the official ship of Prince Qi Le's Mansion quietly left the ferry, no one thought that there were people wanted by the court hidden in this official ship.
Because it was the official ship of the dignitaries, there was hardly any obstruction along the way, even if there were some small storms, it was nothing but a surprise.
After leaving Nan Province, they left in an open and aboveboard manner, deliberately avoiding concealment, because both of them were from official family members, and their posture and posture were the most appropriate, so that this escape was like a simple trip.
However, Xianggui still ran for his life, and did not dare to delay all the way. It took about four months to land in Nanhai County.
The scenery in the South China Sea is even more different from that in the south of the Yangtze River, and the heat is scorching as soon as you get off the boat.What's more, along the way, all parts of the south gradually entered the flood season, so that the sea gradually became fierce, and they narrowly escaped this catastrophe.
Zhao Xianci was very thankful that he made a decisive decision and ran early.
Otherwise, I am afraid that a few days later, there will be many dangers due to the flood season along the way.
Little did they know that just after King Qi Le's boat docked, someone reported it to the King of Nanhai County.
The Eldest Princess Liu Runyue is now the princess of Nanhai County, and also the president of the union of all major shipping companies in the South China Sea.Hearing the letter reported by his subordinates, he pursed his lips and said strangely, "Is the old seventeen's hand stretched so long?"
The county king said, "I don't know what the Seventeenth Prince sent someone here for?"
"What good can there be?" Wang Hao hated this Seventeenth Brother very much. "He has always been the most absurd, with countless ignorance. I have always hated dealing with him. Old Seventeen knows it too. Why did he come to us now?" ?”
"Don't worry about any changes in the court," the county king reassured, "The sixth princess only talked about escaping marriage, but according to my informant's report, there seems to be a storm in Beijing."
The eldest princess smiled, "That has nothing to do with us. Besides, since Xuan'er only said that she wanted to escape marriage, we don't need to ask more questions."
But regarding King Qi Le's ship arriving in the South China Sea, the eldest princess and the county king still sent people to pay close attention, mainly because they were worried that the seventeenth prince would do something ridiculous again.
