The boat sailed northward for more than two months, and it was the end of July in a blink of an eye. The journey was smooth, but the boat was really boring, and the food was simple. When the merchants saw the steamed buns, they felt nauseous and nauseated, and their eyes were white. It's flamboyant, but the Artemisia workers on the boat who are used to it are very adaptable.
On this day, the boat sailed for half a day. At noon, the boat owner came over and said to Jiang Ning, "Go for another half day, and it will be convenient to enter the boundary of Linsha River."
Jiang Ning nodded and asked, "How long will it take to get to Shahe City?"
The owner of the boat replied: "Twenty days at most, and half a month at least. There are often strong winds in this area, and the boat may be difficult to sail."
Jiang Ning nodded slightly, expressing his understanding, and then said: "I need to trouble the boss to take care of it."
"Business Manager Jiang is polite about his duties."
The two were talking, when they suddenly heard some commotion on the deck, after a while, a worker came in and said, "There is a ship outside."
The owner of the ship asked, "What ship?"
The Hao worker replied: "It's a merchant ship, it seems to be stranded, and it's calling us."
As if to verify his words, a shout came from afar outside the boat, because the sound of the water was slightly louder and caught in the wind, it seemed a little indistinct.
The boat owner looked at Jiang Ning and said, "Master Jiang, shall we go out and have a look?"
Jiang Ning nodded, and the two went to the deck together. Sure enough, they saw a huge ship parked not far away. It was huge and magnificent from a distance. It’s really the first time I’ve seen such a big merchant ship, and I don’t know what kind of wealthy family the owner is.”
Jiang Ning narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at the red spire of the big ship, feeling very familiar. At this time, a few people stood on the bow of the ship, waving to them and greeting them from a distance.
The boat owner asked Jiang Ning, "Do you want to drive there?"
Jiang Ning nodded and said, "Pass the boat over."
"Okay!" the boat owner greeted, and went to the stern to inform the boatman. After a while, their boat slowly approached the huge merchant ship.
When he got close, Jiang Ning stood at the bow of the ship and could see more and more clearly that the person waving on the big merchant ship was the steward Wang he met in Chongyang City back then.
After a while, the distance between the two ships was very close, and the distance was only three or four meters. The steward Wang saw Jiang Ning clearly. He was shocked at first, and then a little embarrassed. Jiang Ning greeted first: "Guard Wang, long time no see."
Steward Wang smiled dryly: "No, it's really a coincidence..."
Jiang Ning smiled slightly, glanced at their boat, and asked kindly: "What's wrong with you?"
Wang Guanshi looked bitter, waved his hands and said: "Don't mention it, I..."
He was talking, when suddenly a person stood up behind him and said, "What are you talking about?"
Steward Wang was so frightened by this sudden blow that he almost fell off the boat. He quickly hugged the side of the boat and cried bitterly, "Boss, you scared me to death..."
Gu Hongyun sneered slightly, folded his arms, and said: "You are very capable. I ordered the boat to stop sailing. How dare you call someone?"
Guanshi Wang immediately pointed to the sky and swore: "Master Mingjian, I did not call this boat!"
Gu Hongyun cast a glance at him, and snorted, "I'm sorry you don't have that ability."
As he spoke, he turned his head and saw Jiang Ning, looked at him carefully, raised his eyebrows in surprise, then laughed, and cupped his hands and said, "So it's you! Brother Jiang, what a coincidence!"
Jiang Ning smiled slightly, and bowed his hands back: "Brother Gu, long time no see, are you okay?"
Gu Hongyun laughed loudly and said, "Why did you come here? This is your boat?"
Jiang Ning replied: "That's right, I want to go to Shahe City, Brother Gu's boat...why is it left here?"
Gu Hongyun narrowed his eyes slightly, and said with a casual smile: "I came from Shangjing a few days ago and originally wanted to go north, but I changed my mind temporarily."
Steward Wang couldn't help interjecting: "Boss, but where is the old lady..."
Gu Hongyun glanced at him: "Shut up."
Steward Wang shut his mouth honestly, and Gu Hongyun continued to talk to Jiang Ning with a smile: "Brother Jiang is going to do business in Shahe City?"
Jiang Ning nodded: "It's just a small business." He said, and then said again: "The last time I went back to Jinzhou City, I took a ride with Brother Gu, and I never had a chance to thank Brother Gu."
Gu Hongyun laughed, and said: "It's a trivial matter, don't take it to heart."
Jiang Ning pondered for a moment, then asked, "I wonder if Brother Gu has been drinking?"
Gu Hongyun nodded: "Why?"
Jiang Ning said: "I have a few jars of good wine here, and I will give them to Brother Gu by the way, as a thank you for taking the boat that day, please wait a moment."
As he said, he turned and entered the cabin. Gu Hongyun folded his arms, looked at the small cabin exit, and narrowed his eyes slightly.
After a while, Jiang Ning came out, the strong wind at the bow of the boat made his robes flutter violently, making his body look thinner and thinner, he walked to the bow with two wine jars in his arms, and was about to When I opened my mouth, I was suddenly a little stunned. The wine has been taken out, how should I send it over?
Seeing this, Gu Hongyun laughed, and said with a happy expression, "Brother Jiang is not in a hurry, I'll go there."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to beckon. There was an Artemisia worker on the big merchant ship who saw him and hurriedly got up and went to the cabin. Slowly let it go, and happened to be on the boat on Jiang Ning's side.
The boat under Jiang Ning's feet swayed slightly, then stopped, and did not float like before. Gu Hongyun walked along the ladder and jumped off the side of the boat. Only then did Jiang Ning realize that he was holding a cat in his arms .
The cat looks very ordinary, hemp gray mixed with a little yellowish-brown fur, a pair of yellowish-green eyes, slender and long pupils, very clear in the sun, it looked up at Jiang Ning, jumped lightly, jumped on She touched his shoulder, and meowed softly, softly.
Fortunately, it wasn't too big, otherwise Jiang Ning didn't know if his shoulders could hold him. Gu Hongyun raised his eyebrows in surprise, and couldn't help but reached out and flicked the cat's finger, saying, "Why did you lose your temper today?"
The cat didn't even look at him, instead of looking away, it climbed onto Jiang Ning's other shoulder and continued to lie down.
Gu Hongyun smiled and said to Jiang Ning: "I have never seen a parrot so close to other people, and it is so quiet. Today is a good experience."
Jiang Ning didn't know how to start a conversation. Do you want to ask him, you actually call a cat a parrot?
There was a small table on the deck, which was used by Artemisia workers and caravan attendants to sit around on weekdays. The two sat down at the table, and Jiang Ning took a jar of wine and opened the seal.
The strong aroma of wine burst out in an instant, Gu Hongyun sniffed it lightly, and wondered, "What kind of wine is this?"
While pouring the wine, Jiang Ning replied, "This wine is called Yuanzhi, and it's made by myself. It's just rough wine. Brother Gu laughed at it."
Gu Hongyun took a sip and frowned slightly. After tasting for a long time, he put down the bowl and said with a smile, "Is this also called crude wine? Brother Jiang is too modest."
Jiang Ning smiled slightly, noncommittal, and continued to fill him up. Gu Hongyun picked up the wine bowl again, put it on Jiang Ning's shoulder, and said to the cat: "Little parrot, would you like some?"
The cat was dozing off. Hearing the sound, he raised his head, glanced at him, lazily turned around, pointed his butt at him, and continued to doze off.
Gu Hongyun was shaken by the cat in front of Jiang Ning, he couldn't help but couldn't help laughing, and said with a smile: "It's so majestic, it's against you."
He said, took another sip of wine, took a deep breath, and chatted with Jiang Ning.
The two chatted for a long time, and there was a lot of delay. The owner of the ship came over and asked Jiang Ning, "Master Jiang, when will the ship leave?"
Jiang Ning thought for a while, and Gu Hongyun suddenly put down his wine bowl and said, "How about this, brother Jiang, how about giving me your ride this time?"
Jiang Ning looked at him in surprise: "Are you not going?"
Gu Hongyun laughed, and said: "I'm alone, and where I go depends on my mood. Now that I'm in a good mood, I can go wherever I want."
Seeing what he said, Jiang Ning nodded and said, "If Brother Gu wants to go together, there is no problem."
Gu Hongyun said: "Then I'll go and say hello first."
Jiang Ning thought he was going back to the boat to say hello, so he nodded in agreement, but Gu Hongyun just stood on the bow of his boat and shouted to the boat over there: "Tell Wang Dehui to take the fleet back to Beijing!"
After he finished speaking, he said to Jiang Ning: "Then let's set off now."
Jiang Ning: "..." Seeing that Gu Hongyun looked serious, not joking, he turned to the ship's boss and said, "I'm sorry."
Someone on the boat heard it, and there was a sudden panic. The people who heard it immediately entered the cabin. After a while, when Guanshi Wang came out, Jiang Ning's boat had already moved away slowly. He threw himself on the bow and shouted: "Boss! Take me with you!"
However, Gu Hongyun just laughed, Yaoyao waved at him, turned around and followed Jiang Ning into the cabin.
Wang Dehui's legs went limp all of a sudden, he almost lay down on the ground, and muttered: "It's over, the things haven't been delivered, I'll go back alone, the old lady will kill me..."
He thought for a while, got up immediately, and shouted at the Haogong on the boat: "Quick, follow! Follow the boat in front!"
The Artemisia workers looked at each other, and then a follower hesitantly said: "That... steward, the master ordered... Let us go back to Shangjing..."
Someone else continued: "If we don't obey our orders and follow, the boss will definitely lose his temper when he finds out."
The implication is, are you going to face the old lady, or are you going to face the wrath of the boss...
Hearing this, Wang Dehui's legs went limp again, and he waved his hands tremblingly: "Forget it, go back, go back to Shangjing..."
On this day, the boat sailed for half a day. At noon, the boat owner came over and said to Jiang Ning, "Go for another half day, and it will be convenient to enter the boundary of Linsha River."
Jiang Ning nodded and asked, "How long will it take to get to Shahe City?"
