Chapter 439: Strange Things
Guangdong's businessmen and predators gathered in the small city of Leizhou, and all of this was invited by the prefect of Leizhou and the secretary of Guangdong City.
In a short period of time, he defeated the number one bully, Jia Bao, and found out Liu San, a fake county, which is enough to prove Lin Haoran's ability. People who had doubts about his ability before have dispelled their doubts and are optimistic about this new star of officialdom in the Ming Dynasty.
In particular, the news that the single phase of "Talking about the Past and the Present" underwritten by Chen Yuanwaishu Yazhai exceeded 100,000 yuan, which made them even more greedy.
Li Yuanwai is still Lin Haoran, who was revised by Hanlin, and as a result, he got this hen that lays golden eggs, and the profits that can be obtained from "Talking about the Past and the Present" every year may be tens of thousands of taels of profits, which is to confirm the status of the first bookstore in the Ming Dynasty.
Now that Lin Haoran has returned to Leizhou Mansion to open the sea, although he is facing many problems, he also contains huge business opportunities.
Once he can make the port of Guangzhou completely ban the sea, it will not be an opportunity for the rise of Dianbaigang, and there will inevitably be eye-catching business opportunities here.
Whether it is to sell Lin Tiju's face, or to follow the trust of his relatives in Beijing, or to look for business opportunities, the businessmen from Guangdong are all here as promised, intending to get a piece of the pie on Dianbaigang.
On September 19, a group of businessmen arrived at the restaurant as scheduled, including Chen Zhixiao and his grandfather, who had been invited earlier. After having morning tea, I saw that Governor Lin invited everyone to go to the east gate.
"Why to the east of the city?"
"Whatever! Let's go check it out, when it's time to play! ”
"That is, will you still sell us?"
……
I was invited out of the east of the city, although I felt confused. It's just that they came here, and Governor Lin didn't take the initiative to make it clear, so they could only take one step at a time.
There are a lot of carriages gathered in front of the restaurant, and these carriages are borrowed or rented, as if the carriages of the entire Leizhou City are gathered here.
It is also thanks to Lin Haoran who defeated the bully Jia Bao and gained prestige, otherwise it would be an easy task for the rich in the city to lend so many carriages.
In the midst of this mighty convoy, a lavishly decorated carriage suddenly joined in, and slowly headed towards the east gate.
The breeze gently brushed the curtains, and you could see that there was a beautiful woman with fair skin and delicate face sitting inside, with a delicate woman's head crossed, her shoulders slightly broader, her chest erect, and her luxurious clothes implicitly wrapped in a wonderful body, exuding a noble atmosphere.
It's just that at this moment, although her eyebrows are slender and arrogant, they emerge with a rare softness. Because a tiger-headed little girl came in, her eyes were bright and innocent, and she was holding her favorite pastry in her hand.
"Sister Hua, this is what Su Niang just made, it's delicious." Tiger Niu handed over the pastry and said with her saliva swallowed.
"Thank you!" Mrs. Jiang took the pastry and said with a shallow smile on the corner of her mouth.
Hu Niu also took a pastry, sat next to her and took a small bite gently, and said with a serious face: "Sister Hua, my brother and I went to the beach the day before yesterday, and the road will be a little bumpy." ”
"Your brother has been to the beach, where did he go and what was he doing?" Mrs. Jiang's heart moved, and she immediately asked.
Although I don't know what medicine is sold in that man's stomach, with that man's style, it must be a big move.
"Just go there and play! I picked up a lot of shells and planned to go back to the village in a few days to give them to the mice! By the way, we also arrived at a village where we met bad people! Hu Niu couldn't hide anything from the people close to her, so she told everything about that day.
It's just that when she heard that Lin Haoran wanted to dredge the spring for the villagers of Xiaoquan Village, Mrs. Jiang's heart moved, and she felt that there must be an article here.
With that man's style of doing things, it is estimated that he will not agree to this matter for no reason, and there must be some kind of calculation.
But she was extremely confused, the east of the city was a poor place, and then there was a pirate's nest, what good could she get there?
There are quirks!
After some contemplation, Mrs. Jiang's brows frowned slightly, and she couldn't find an answer, only knowing that this man must be "restless".
After these years of contact and understanding from Hu Niu, she found that this man was extremely business-talented and intelligent.
It's just that she couldn't figure it out, this man was so smart, how could he not see that Leizhou Mansion didn't have the conditions to become a major trade port at all, why did he choose to accept this impossible task?
But to say that this man was acting recklessly, he didn't see the difficulty of opening the sea in advance at all, but she couldn't convince herself. How could this man be so shy at protecting himself, how could he make such a low-level mistake?
Everything was like a mystery, hanging over his heart. It was also for this reason that prompted her to decide to join in this excitement, to see what medicine this man sold in his gourd.
The road was rough and the convoy moved forward slowly.
After about half an hour, the convoy passed through a wild banana grove and suddenly stopped moving again.
What's going on?
At first, Mrs. Jiang thought that the carriage in front of her was in trouble and obstructed the traffic, but after waiting for a long time, she still did not see the convoy moving forward.
"The front is impassable, Lord Lin asks everyone to turn back!" But at this time, the two yacha came back from the front to announce Lin Haoran's order, asking everyone to turn around and go back to the city.
"What are you doing? I still want to see the sea! ”
There was a son-in-law in front of him who complained, but he only complained, and he didn't dare to disobey Lin Haoran's decision.
Mrs. Jiang, who was sitting in the carriage, frowned slightly, revealing that the curtain of the carriage was lifted and looked at the gray sky, and strange things were really one after another.
There was a little movement outside the carriage, and the tiger girl who had gone to investigate the situation had just jumped into the carriage when she returned.
Mrs. Jiang looked at the tiger girl frowning slightly, and knew that it must not be a problem with the road conditions, something bad must have happened.
Sure enough, Tiger Girl mysteriously told her that there was a trace of pirates in front of her, so her brother sent the convoy back to the city and told her not to leak it.
Getting the news, Mrs. Jiang also sighed lightly. This Leizhou Mansion is a good place, especially to the east of Leizhou City, where you can hunt a lot of fish in Leizhou Bay, but the pirates here are rampant, so that this place has slowly evolved into a forbidden area.
Lin Haoran wanted to block this news, probably because he didn't want these businessmen who were invited to the banquet to know about the serious problem of pirates in Leizhou Bay, and even changed his itinerary because of this.
If she publicized this unfavorable news, it would inevitably cause an uproar, and it would definitely make the man angry.
It's just that she finally chose to be silent, but it's not that she doesn't dare to do it, but she has her pride, and she wants to make that man suffer a little. At the same time, she didn't want to live up to the unconditional trust that Tiger Niu had in her, and she couldn't bear to deceive this little girl who trusted her unconditionally.
But the appearance of pirates undoubtedly cast a shadow on her heart, those gangs are really a group of heinous murderers, but I don't know if they will be chased and killed.
