The old salted fish stared at Zhu Er with a gaze like a fool - going to sea to make a lot of money? This boy can't be stupid because he was hit in the head with a stone, right? Although the sea trade is indeed profitable, whether it is the big ports in the south of the Yangtze River, Fujian or even in the north, who will send the children of the real core of the rich gentry who have sea ships at home?

Only those children of the side branches who are excluded from their families will have to risk their lives to go to sea to fight for their lives, hoping to fight their way forward in the waves...... No, it's the money that comes in! The noble son in front of him, who is obviously a hanger, is he stupid enough to make money on the sea so easily?

But at the same time, he also suspected that the other party was pretending to be a fool to fool him, but in fact treating him as a fool.

But when he thought about the stories in countless drama scripts, he vaguely felt that there was an image that seemed to coincide with Zhu Er at this time. His eyes bulged out suddenly, and Huo Ran stood up.

"The second son said that you ran away from home? Hehe, can you still bring so many followers to swagger through the market when you run away from home? Unlikely! If you want me to guess, you are probably the real prince, and the one in the Cangzhou Palace is an impostor! ”

The old salted fish moved very big this time, and the bow of the boat shook a little because of his sudden uprightness, but Zhu Er in the cabin was half frightened to death, and had to desperately climb the edge of the boat, so he didn't fall into the water because of losing his balance. When the frightening had passed, he glared at the old salted fish and scolded angrily.

"Dead old man, have you watched too much of those messy scenes! That vicious-minded, I have nothing to do with him! The eldest prince and the second prince are simply worse than anyone else, there are a lot of messy things in the capital, and whoever is contaminated is unlucky! In the past, there was a queen who guarded the cubs like a hen, but now that such a big thing has happened, the eldest prince has to be stripped of a layer of skin! ”

The dignified son was scolded by the young man in front of him who called himself the second son of Qi as a rotten thing, and the old salted fish naturally did not take it lightly, but felt that the identity of the person in front of him was extraordinary, and it was probably the key to solving the situation in Cangzhou. But he is not a big prince, and the black cauldron in the drama is all traitorous ministers, and there is no hope for the royal family to be glorious and righteous, so he had to smile and bow his hand to Zhu Er.

"The second son forgive me, forgive me. Am I not concerned about it? If you are the eldest prince and there is an impostor in the Cangzhou Palace, then you can stand up and suppress the situation in an instant, punish those bullies who act recklessly in the name of the royal family, and give justice to the common people...... At that time, even if you cut off the head of my nephew Xian Yunhe, I will never frown at all! ”

Nonsense, cut off your nephew's head, and it's not your head!

Zhu Er was crazy in his heart, but what he didn't think was that the old salted fish was a civilian consciousness that was too vulgar - the dignified son hid and did not show up, let an imposter swagger and deceive, and harm the people? What the hell is this idea! If there really is such a guy who hides in the shadows, then this guy is definitely the real mastermind behind the scenes!

Thinking of this, he had some confidence in his own wisdom, and immediately smiled and said, "Old salted fish, don't that hollow heart." Your nephew is your nephew, you are you, the decree of the Nine Clans, it has been completely abolished since the time of Taizu, even if he rebels and rebels, it has nothing to do with your maternal uncle. The guys who chased us before won't be able to bounce for long! ”

As he spoke, he waved his hand arrogantly: "When the letter from the capital sends someone over, it will be able to wipe out those damn guys in a blink of an eye!" ”

Zhu Er, the person who spoke, didn't feel that there was anything wrong with his words, but for the old salted fish, there were many problems with his words. It's just that the old man who has been floating on the sea for most of his life, and the extremely slippery old man didn't show it at all, but nodded with a smile: "If everyone is as good as the second son, Cangzhou will not suffer from this catastrophe." ”

He followed and looked at Zhu Er with a sincere face, and said with a sigh: "What kind of bad luck is Cangzhou, it has caused such a catastrophe!" Even if this disaster is in the past, in the eyes of the imperial court, the people of Cangzhou have also become the same party of the traitors, and when the time comes, it is inevitable that the upper authorities will be exploited by the superiors, and the poor people are pitiful...... Woowoowoo......"

The old man cries when he says he will cry, he is not ambiguous at all, and he is a drama spirit. However, his acting skills may be able to deceive the average son, but for Zhu Er, who can be a drama master even if he is shrewd, that rank is still insufficient.

Therefore, Zhu Er shouted angrily: "Okay, okay, stop me!" I am a second ancestor, how can I have the ability to take care of such a thing that pierces the sky! But at this point, he coughed dryly again, "Of course, I myself have been hunted down to this point, and it is impossible not to have a little return!" As long as you get in touch with my guards, it's not that you can't find a way! ”

The old salted fish was overjoyed, and immediately thanked him, and then went into the cabin, and in a short time he washed and scrubbed in the bow of the boat, and made supper. Zhu Er, who hadn't eaten well in the past few days, smelled the fragrance, and became greedy for a while, but just when he couldn't help swallowing his saliva, he suddenly thought of the purpose of his trip.

"By the way, old salted fish, don't you always sell some strange things in your shop, such as the sweet and sour tomato sauce, I ate it last time, you can quickly take it and make some dishes for me to taste, such as a tomato fish ......"

He had pretended to meet Lao Salted Fish by chance, and although he had been to his shop later, in order to avoid arousing suspicion, he had only pretended to be interested in those things, but he had not delved too deeply.

At this time, he looked into the pot as he spoke, just avoiding the scrutinizing eyes of the old salted fish.

"Right now, this is on the boat, there are only dried fish, dried shrimp and crabs, and two cans of spring water, which I prepared for going out to sea to fish, how can there be ketchup! Besides, those are sealed in porcelain jars, and they have to be sold to nobles who like curiosities, and I eat them myself...... Crazy? That bite is money! ”

Speaking of this, the old salted fish snorted disapprovingly when he saw Zhu Er, thinking of the ignorance of the world that this guy showed a few days ago, the panic and embarrassment when he escaped before, and the background that was inadvertently revealed just now, he slowed down his tone.

"What kind of sweet and sour ketchup is that, you've eaten it yourself, and the main thing is one word, sour! In order for a noble boy like you to eat, I'll have to mix up some sugar, or honey! If you like it, I will give you ten cans and eight cans, and you will mention it to the pregnant ladies in the capital, and I can sell a little more, right......?"

As soon as his words fell, Zhu Er immediately slapped his thigh with a hundred times more energy: "This is what you said!" Don't coax me! Wait a minute...... Since this is from overseas, isn't it too easy to have eight cans out of ten? Dead old man, you're not scolding me, are you? Those ships on the sea are eager to pack a little more overseas curiosities, who will put these messy food on a pile? ”

"So how can a young master from a wealthy family like you know this kind of doorway!"

The old salted fish stirred the fragrant soup in the pot while adding all kinds of condiments that Zhu Er couldn't understand, and regardless of the fact that people's salivating expressions gradually became a little subtle, he said to himself: "This sea trade, there are many and heavy things transported out of our Daming, for example, silk, cloth, porcelain, and tea, which can fill a boat. ”

"As for what you pretended to be when you came back? Precious stones, spices, gold and silver, these things take up much less space than the cargo when you go, so you have to find ways to add heavy things to the ship for ballast. For example, wood, for example, rare stones that we don't have here...... Anyway, as long as it's sinking, what's the point of piggybacking on these foods? ”

The corners of Zhu Er's mouth turned up, and a somewhat smug smile appeared on his face: "I don't know what you said, but I've eaten that tomato sauce, it's not like those pickled sauerkraut and sour radish, it's obviously another kind of sour." My teacher said that if it is not fermented, cough, but if it is not pickled or dried, it is difficult to preserve it for that long. ”

"Besides, you don't have a lot of sugar in your ketchup, so it's even more unbearable. No seagoing ship is allowed to drift at sea for a month or two, if it is really something brought from overseas, and it has been accumulated in your shop for so long, it will be broken down long ago! So, I think it's you who are insatiable and pass off the things you grow as treasures brought back from overseas! ”

In the end, Zhu Er was triumphant, and he only felt that the sea breeze on his face was also praising himself. However, when he saw the old salted fish with his head raised, he felt that something was wrong.

Because I only saw this old man who used to be immortal and was now embarrassed, and there was a certain kind of trembling light flashing in his eyes, it was like......

Could it be that he was right, the old man is now thinking about how to kill people!

Zhu Er was already timid, but his face turned white at this time, and he hurriedly looked around, wondering if it was better for him to escape by diving. However, after staring at him for a long time with the sharp eyes of the old salted fish, which were like falcons, the eyes returned to their usual cloudiness and gloom.

"Second son, do you really dare to think about it...... Hehe, if I really planted a large area of these strange things, would I still need to open such a small shop in Cangzhou? Even if you go to the capital to find a wealthy family, Mao Sui recommends himself to be a gardener, maybe people will like these strange things. After all, I've heard that many powerful people in the capital are better to show off. ”

As he spoke, he shrugged his shoulders and said, "As for the preservation of this ketchup, I actually have to thank Emperor Taizu, if he hadn't made the method of how to make spirits known to the world at that time, this ketchup wouldn't have been able to be kept for so long." In fact, it is very simple to put the finished sauce in a clean porcelain jar, put it in a steamer, and then pour the spirits in it while it is hot, the stronger the better. ”

After a pause, he continued; "After heating, take out the porcelain jar and seal it with wax and preserve, which can be stored for several months. Although you have to eat it as soon as you open it, the tomato sauce that hasn't been opened can be left for a long time. You must know that when the ship travels on the sea, it is easy to get sick, lack of medical treatment, and people are easy to die, and it is also Emperor Taizu who made it public to the world, and that is because he did not eat fresh vegetables and fruits. ”

"So, this ketchup is a great thing for a maritime merchant. Of course, the same is true for marmalade and plum sauce. You probably don't know that the most common thing on the sea boat over the years is all kinds of sauces! ”

Being able to say those doubts before in a matter-of-fact manner is already the limit of Zhu Er's ability, so when the old salted fish said a lot of words, although he was skeptical because he lacked the corresponding common sense, he still couldn't say any reason for questioning in the end.

And when the other party directly filled a bowl of soup and sent it to him, although it was so hot that he almost spilled, he was really hungry, and after blowing and drinking two sips, he still couldn't help but dance with his eyebrows, and he only felt that the whole person was alive.

"It's cold this night, and after you have drunk the soup to warm your body, take off your clothes and dry them, otherwise you will have to freeze off." The old salted fish said without raising his head, seeing that Zhu Er didn't say anything, he couldn't help but look up in surprise, and saw that the person was looking at the linoleum wrapped around before and his face was entangled, and he remembered that this was also a noble son, so he had to cough.

"You're naked and you're going to spend the night. Just don't worry about the salted fish. At very moments, you can't live if you're so picky. Between salted fish and sickness, what you should choose, this is not for me to say. ”

Well, on the issue of salted fish and sickness...... I choose salted fish, just like at home, between survival and decency, of course I choose to survive! As long as you can live a good life, what is decent, can you eat it?

After eating and drinking, Zhu Er tragically stripped naked, naked, and made do all night in the cabin with the strong smell of salted fish, wrapped in the linoleum that was suspected of being wrapped in salted fish, as for when he fell asleep, he himself didn't know. When he woke up early in the morning, he was already used to the smell of salted fish and was in a trance for a while, and then he came back to his senses and realized where he was at the moment.

However, when the set of clothes that had been dried was sent by the old salted fish, Zhu Ergongzi was in a hurry. How does he wear these wrinkled, dry clothes? It was easy to be persuaded by the old salted fish to put it on, he looked at his dress, and then grabbed the dry and knotted hair and astringent scalp that had been soaked in the seawater, and he felt that he had staged a realistic version of the childe's hard to remember.

If he returns to Beijing safely, even if he tries his best and exhausts his money, he must hire someone to set a sack and teach the prince a hard lesson!

Although he was in a resentful mood, Zhu Er didn't want to stay on the boat for a few more days, so he reluctantly followed the old salted fish and went ashore from a remote place, and then walked to Cangzhou City on two legs, and his feet were worn out.

Before, because he disliked the shoes when he jumped to escape, he had already kicked off his shoes in the water, and now he only had a pair of rag shoes, but they were better than the straw shoes of the old salted fish. And this originally very decent shirt soaked in the sea, faded and shrunk so badly that it completely lost its original appearance, which also made his outfit completely different from the sea fishing documents hanging at the head of the city.

The most important thing is that the disguise on Zhu Er's face has long since disappeared.

Now he has no resemblance to the triumphant young man with a mustache on the list.

As for the old salted fish...... If the old man on the bounty list is at least a down-and-out old scholar, then now the old salted fish with a short body is like an ordinary fisherman, and the sunburn on his arm is like a fake, and the soldiers who checked it didn't bother to look at the two of them at all, and waved his hand impatiently: "Remember, Cangzhou City is not allowed to enter or leave these days!" ”
