Section 19 Return to the North

With a "bang", the courtyard door was opened, Feng Ziying frowned, looked through the window lattice, and looked at the two stumbling drunks coming in crookedly, shaking their heads.

Before the listing ceremony ended, Feng Ziying left.

The people in the officialdom just came to show their faces, even if they gave Feng Ziying enough face.

The rest are all people in the business world, so naturally Duan Xigui and Jia Lian will go to socialize.

"Ziying, Ziying!"

Duan Xigui's face was flushed, spitting wine, he walked in and leaned on the door frame, while Jia Lian was blue, and he was also full of alcohol, his body was crooked, leaning against the wall.

"Why don't you send the two masters to rest?" Feng Ziying frowned and scolded the servants who followed behind the two.

"No, Ziying, Second Master Lian and I will come over and say a few words and go back, but don't vomit or be unhappy!" Duan Xigui took a deep breath and tried to make himself behave normally.

"Oh?" Feng Ziying was curious, "What does my cousin have to say?" ”

"Ziying, Haitong Yinzhuang may be my destiny in this life, I want to do it well, do my best, today is a very good start, you know? Do you know how many households have deposited their money and how much they have deposited today? Duan Xigui glared at Feng Ziying.

"Cousin, I remember that you were in contact with each other in the early days. On this first day, people will definitely show you face. Feng Ziying didn't bother to guess, this was all said in the early stage, let's make up the numbers today and go through the motions.

"No, Ziying, these ninety-six households are not the ones I said before, nor are they the nurseries I found, but they came to the door themselves, let me tell you, today Yinzhuang received 85,430 taels of foreign deposits, a total of 96 households came to deposit silver, the largest one deposited 2,000 taels, and the least one deposited eighty taels! None of them were found by me, and they had never even met or dealt with each other before! ”

Duan Xigui waved his hand frantically, "Ziying, do you just know what this means?" This means that our signboard is out, it is played, and everyone is willing to believe us! I don't care about the tens of thousands of taels of silver, what I care about is these ninety-six households, some of them are the gentry in Yangzhou City, some are the officials in the city, some are merchants and landlords outside the city, and even the turtle Gong Kabuki on the Slender West Lake, but I don't care about their identity, which means that almost everyone in the city recognizes our Haitong Yinzhuang! ”

Indeed, Duan Xigui still sees it very accurately, if he purely relies on the big businessmen in this city, he can certainly be fresh for a while, but if it is not supported by most of the ninety-six families who belong to the backbone groups inside and outside Yangzhou City, this Haitong Yinzhuang will not be able to last long.

"If both inside and outside Yangzhou City trust our Haitong Yinzhuang, then in the future, our Yinzhuang will be able to firmly occupy the leading position in this Yangzhou City, this step is considered to be stable, and there are three more to negotiate loan matters today, I have preliminary contact with Lian Erye, we are considered to know the roots, the silver can not be turned, and I plan to borrow 50,000 taels of silver,......"

It's no wonder that Duan Xigui is so out of shape and has a good start, so when he encounters such a situation, it's no wonder that he is a little carried away, which is understandable.

"Ziying, Xigui and I are a little excessive, but today we are really excited, everything is going smoothly than we imagined, before I and Xigui had no bottom in our hearts, even if we can invite a lot of guests, the key is that people come to believe it or not, look around and leave, it is meaningless."

Jia Lian was much more eloquent than Duan Xigui, although he was also very excited, but in line with his identity. His demeanor is even more exciting.

"Many people come with a skeptical attitude, but seeing so many adults come to congratulate in person, and as soon as the identities of several shareholders are revealed, these people are all hands-on-eye, so naturally they understand,......"

Jia Lian and Feng Ziying muttered and took Feng Ziying's hand and talked for a long time, and Feng Ziying could only listen patiently.

Perhaps all the hard work they had worked on had finally paid off, and both of them had a bit of a taste of getting what they wanted, so it was no wonder that they had a few more drinks at the banquet.

When the two were sent away, Feng Ziying breathed a sigh of relief.

He can understand this feeling, it is done, his long-cherished wish has been fulfilled, and the future is bright, and anyone will inevitably indulge in it.

However, for himself, the most important thing is to come to an end, and the next thing is that Duan Xigui will stabilize the situation in the next two or three months.

According to what several people agreed, in these three months, Duan Xigui will be the main one, and Jia Lian will quickly return to Yangzhou after returning to Beijing, and then three months later, Jia Lian will be the main one, Duan Xigui will assist, and in August, Duan Xigui will rush to Beijing to form the Beijing Division, and in December, he will rush to Datong to form the Datong and complete the formation of the three families this year.

Feng Ziying also knew that there would inevitably be all kinds of obstruction troubles and problems here, but now that the head of the Yangzhou has been opened and Duan Xigui and Jia Lian have experience, these are not problems.

********

Stepping into Daiyu's courtyard, Feng Ziying could hear the sound of warblers and swallows, full of spring.

Feng Ziying's mood was also relieved.

There are Baochai, Tanchun, Xiangyun and Yingchun Xichun, which can be regarded as Daiyu's best friend party, and it has been more than a month, Daiyu's mood should have eased.

However, the news from Wu Yaoqing's side made Feng Ziying feel heavy.

Lin Ruhai's illness is problematic.

The medicine residue has been retained, although I found a few Lang Zhong and the decoction master to check, and I couldn't see the clue, but the other Lang Zhong all thought that with Lin Ruhai's situation at that time, it was impossible for him to pass away in just a few days, at least he should be able to last for a month or two.

As for the evidence, Feng Ziying never had much hope for the criminal investigation skills at this time, and it was impossible for Lin Ruhai's special identity to investigate suspicions in this way.

Wu Yaoqing's investigation of the characters in the rivers and lakes also has a preliminary result.

Of the two most suspicious groups, one group was ruled out, but the group of people who went to Hangzhou became more suspicious.

The three of them were all from Chizhou Mansion, but they had been wandering in Jinling, Chizhou and Taiping for a long time, and they had some kind of connection with some local salt lords in Chizhou.

And the whereabouts of these three people are also very suspicious, it seems that they want to deliberately avoid something, after going to Hangzhou, they made a big detour to Jiangxi before returning to Chizhou, and this time has been shrinking in Chizhou, and according to the previous situation, these people should have stayed in Jinling.

As far as Wu Yaoqing's existing resources and abilities are concerned, they can only find out this step, people have come to Yangzhou, there are no other abnormal conditions, and there is no evidence, unless Feng Ziying also uses the power of the Jianghu people, otherwise you have no reason to move the other party.

Feng Ziying will not stop there, although she said to Daiyu that Lin Ruhai's condition suddenly deteriorated, but Feng Ziying knew that she was tired here.

Tao Guolu, the salt transporter, is now infinitely beautiful, and even when Haitong Yinzhuang was established, he came to congratulate him in person, showing great goodwill, but in Feng Ziying's opinion, this one is probably not a small suspect, even if he himself is not involved, but he and the people behind him are the biggest beneficiaries, and they are inseparable.

But from the news obtained by Wang Wenyan and Wu Yaoqing, Tao Guolu's relationship in Jiangnan is extremely deep, even surpassing Lin Ruhai.

Although he himself is not a native of Nanzhi but a native of Huguang, he has been serving in Nanzhi, now in the Ministry of Industry in Nanjing, and later in the Ministry of Household in Nanjing, and finally entered the salt administration, but she was not born in Jinshi, so it is impossible for him to serve in important positions such as patrolling the salt imperial history, and transporting salt is his limit, unless he is transferred to another position, and now this situation is the most wonderful for him.

However, Tao Guolu and Feng Ziying alone don't think that they have such great ability.

Because even if Tao Guolu has this idea, even if Lin Ruhai dies, it is possible that a salt patrol will be assigned immediately, and he will have no play, so based on this, if Lin Ruhai is really framed by someone and died, then there is a very complicated background here.

Especially when he knows that he is engaged to Lin Ruhai's daughter, this is still the case, which cannot help but make people more suspicious.

"Uncle Feng is here." Zijuan, who was standing at the door and accompanying a few girls talking to her own girls, first saw Feng Ziying who stepped into the courtyard.

"Yikes!" There was a rush of scrambling and exclamations in the room.

Feng Ziying strolled in, "Yo, all my sisters are here." ”

"Little sister has seen Brother Feng." Baochai, Daiyu, Tanchun, Xiangyun, Yingchun and Xichun are all blessings for Yingying.

Maybe it's Lin Daiyu's filial piety, and several girls are dressed very plainly, mainly white and cyan, at most, they just add a little piping and embroidery.

A few pairs of eyes like autumn water fell on Feng Ziying, Rao is Feng Ziying had already experienced a hundred battles, but in this situation, she was still a little nervous.

Well, it's really nervous, which makes Feng Ziying a little funny.

"It's all a family, don't be polite, Sister Lin is well?" When Lin Daiyu first came back from Suzhou, she still looked sick, which made Feng Ziying very worried, but she seemed to be much better today.

"Thank you Brother Feng for your concern, my little sister is much better." It stands to reason that it is not appropriate for unmarried couples to meet in private, but in this case, Daiyu has become an orphan girl, and with so many sisters with her, it is nothing.

Hearing that Daiyu's words were still a little nasal, Feng Ziying nodded, "Spring covers autumn frost, Sister Lin and all sisters still have to be careful, we are about to set off for the north, the road is far away, don't get sick." ”

Going back?

Several girls were all happy, but when they thought of Lin Daiyu, the girls didn't make a sound.

Seeing that Daiyu didn't make a sound, Baochai replied softly: "Has Brother Feng's matter been dealt with yet?" ”

"It's almost, there are still some branches, and it will be over in two days, so I'll come to discuss with your sisters, if you can, we'll leave for the north in three days." Feng Ziying said softly: "It's time to go back." ”
