Jia Min's Counterattack

Lin Ruhai was talking to King Yan, when he saw Jia Min coming out with his son in his arms, he reached out to take Lin Rong and hugged him for a while, then reluctantly handed Lin Rong into the hands of King Yan for the last time, saying: "We are about to leave now. May the prince have a smooth journey!"

"Don't worry, I guarantee with my life that I will never let Xing'er be wronged! I wish you all the best!"

Both Lin Ruhai and Jia Min just nodded silently, then turned and left.The husband and wife stood on the pier and watched King Yan's boat gradually disappear in the morning mist. Lin Ruhai hugged Jia Min's waist and said softly, "Let's get on the road!"

Jia Min stood there and watched for a long time, until the mist on the water became thinner, Jia Min lowered his head and said in a hoarse voice: "Let's go!"

Lin Ruhai helped Jia Min into the carriage, took Lin Lang who was still asleep from Mother Lu, and carried Lin Lang into the carriage as well.After everyone got into the small carriage behind and sat down, a group of five carriages set off and left the pier in the morning light.

Lin Ruhai and the others' real destination this time is Lin Family Island. In order to deceive others, they had to go to Putuo Mountain first, and then take a boat from Putuo Mountain to Lin Family Island.

Mount Putuo is said to be the dojo of Guanyin Bodhisattva. It is located on a small island not very far from the land. There are many small islands near this small island.Wealthy families in the south of the Yangtze River like to go to Putuo Mountain to burn incense and worship Buddha, and even those who are particular about donate a large amount of sesame oil money here to light everlasting lamps for their deceased ancestors, so the incense in Putuo Mountain has always been very prosperous.The ancestors of the Lin family used Mount Putuo as a transit point in order to avoid going to the sea to Lin Family Island smoothly. They even bought a piece of land next to Puji Temple and built a courtyard.On the surface, it is to burn incense and pray for the ancestors, but in fact, it goes directly overseas by boat from here.

To go to Mount Putuo, one must first take a carriage to Ningbo, and then board the merchant ship of the Lin family there, and let the merchant ship take them to Mount Putuo first.Ningbo is one of the three sea trading ports opened by the Great Ming Dynasty. Since the time of Emperor Shengzu, Ningbo has become a distribution center for goods going to sea in the south of the Yangtze River. There are not only many merchant ships of the Great Ming Dynasty, but also many merchant ships of foreign countries. Koryo and Japan had the most merchant ships, and a few merchant ships from the West docked here to do business.

"Daddy! Is Ningbo fun? Is Putuo Mountain fun? Is it more fun than Tianping Mountain?" After waking up, Lin Lang ate some porridge that had been simmering on the small charcoal stove in the carriage, and he couldn't sit still. Stopped and kept asking questions.

"Whether it's fun or not, you won't know until Lang'er goes there in person. What Lang'er feels is the most real. What father is telling you here is just father's opinion and feeling. Everyone's opinion and feeling are the same. It's different, after Lang'er went to see it, can we father and son talk about our feelings to each other?"

Lin Lang looked at Lin Ruhai, and nodded ignorantly. He didn't understand what his father said, but he understood that his father didn't tell him right now, and let him go and see it by himself. The little guy is more interested in Mount Putuo. Looking forward to it, I curiously lifted the curtain of the car window to look at the scenery outside.

"Do all the merchant ships of our Lin family sail from Ningbo?" Jia Min asked Lin Ruhai.

"Yes! I used to go through Quanzhou before, but it takes a lot of manpower and material resources to transport goods from Quanzhou to this side, and it takes a lot more time than going to Ningbo, so I just went to Go to Ningbo. Just change from Ningbo to merchant ships traveling in the river, and directly take the water to transport the goods to Jinling and the capital.”

"Does our family still run water transport?"

"No, our family uses its own boat to transport its own goods. I don't know too much about it. Uncle Yang has always been taking care of it. Oh, Uncle Yang is also a servant of the Lin family. His name is Yang Kui. He used to be in the Lin family. Uncle Yang has never been married and has no children of his own, but he has brought two good apprentices, one is Yan Jing, who is now in charge of all the Lin family's sea-going business, and the other is Peng Qingxiang, In charge of the caravan in the northwest of the Lin family. These two are also servants of the Lin family, and their parents are people who once served their father and mother."

"The three masters and apprentices are in charge of most of the Lin family's business. It can be seen that Uncle Yang is very good at doing business. Not only is he himself very good, but he has also trained two very good apprentices."

"Min'er is right. Uncle Yang is a great contributor to our Lin family. What's even more valuable is that he has always refused to get married for the sake of the Lin family. He really has no selfishness at all."

"Why don't you point him to a daughter-in-law?"

"Do you think you didn't point it out? My mother pointed it out to him when she was alive, but he didn't agree with it, and he didn't listen to what his father said, so it didn't matter. Now he is over sixty years old, and his body He is quite healthy, but his knees are empty, and in the future, he will probably let his two apprentices see him off!"

"It's so old, why not let him retire?"

"Actually, he doesn't manage much anymore. The inland waterway that he was in charge of before is only run by his two stewards."

"Uncle Yang has such a talent, why not let him become a teacher in the Servant School over the old Suzhou house? This can train more business talents for the Lin family!"

Lin Ruhai was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said to Jia Min: "Min'er is really a word to wake up the dreamer, why didn't I think of it? Those old but experienced talents in the Lin family can all go to the Servant Academy to become masters." , so that the Lin family will not be afraid of not having useful talents. Hahaha! Your Majesty is right, Min'er is indeed the lucky star of our Lin family, and a good wife for her husband!"

"How can I be so good, I just said it casually!" Jia Min lowered her head shyly, revealing a touch of blush behind her ears.

Seeing Jia Min's shy look like a little girl, Lin Ruhai's mood was agitated for a moment, he grabbed Jia Min's hand and put it on his lips and kissed it lightly, which attracted Jia Min's shy eyes, and Lin Ruhai smirked when he saw it .

"Father, what are you doing? Is mother's hand hurt?" Lin Lang turned his head and saw his father holding mother's hand on his lips, thinking that mother's hand was injured, and father was helping mother, " Mother doesn't hurt! Lang'er will give you too!" Lin Lang said and then blew on Jia Min's hand with his small mouth.

Jia Min's blush became even redder, like the most beautiful red glow, which stunned Lin Ruhai who originally wanted to talk to his son.Jia Min pulled his hand from Lin Ruhai's with all his strength, and then said to Lin Lang: "Lang'er is really a good and filial boy, mother's hand doesn't hurt anymore, but Lang'er is the best, you blow mother's hand It'll be fine right away!"
