Yang Xuanyan was originally a gangster on Chang'an Street, and he was very well-informed. At the same time, he is also very good at spreading information.

One spread ten, ten spread hundreds, Cui Geng's purpose of going to Lingnan Road quickly spread in Chang'an City.

Cui Geng's original meaning was that after he arrived in Lingnan Road, he could develop sea trade and make a fortune.

However, with false rumors and people's imagination, the more it is spread, the more it changes, the more bizarre it is, and the more it is spread, the more exciting it becomes.

"Eh, I said brother, did you hear that?"

"It's not...... Tell me what, I've heard about it? ”

"What else could there be? Recently, people often say that going to Lingnan Road to do maritime trade. ”

"Of course I did. It is said that there is an island overseas where a kind of golden grass grows. It blooms every three years and bears fruit every three years. The fruit could not be eaten or used, and the locals discarded it as if it were a shoe. Wait for a maritime merchant to go up and take a look, wipe it! The fruit is all gold! ”

"I've also heard that there was a man who went out to sea with a ship and didn't know anything about what to sell. One day when he went to a desert island, he saw the shell of a large turtle, and thought it was very good, so he took it to the ship, ready to take it back and sell it. The people in the same boat laughed at him, what is the use of you bringing this thing? Who's going to buy it? Unexpectedly, after it was shipped back, I met the owner of the goods, and opened the turtle shell, which was filled with eight wrist-sized pearls, which were sold for millions of dollars at that time, and they could not be eaten for dozens of lifetimes. ”

"I also heard that a scholar went to sea and encountered a storm and fell into the sea. And guess what? was saved by the dragon king's daughter, and after such a back and forth, the scholar turned out to be the dragon king's concubine. Wealth and color! ”

"You are all wrong, what I heard is not such a version, what I heard is that there is a mysterious place where gold grows, but the terrain is very remote, ordinary people can't find it, even Lingnan Wang Cui Geng also learned about that place by accident, it is said that there is still an old fairy who sees that he is very good to our people, so he told him that place to him, let him develop there, and then we have another place to live."

……

With the rise of these legends, no one said that Cui Gengxuan Lingnan Dao was a big fool. Even many people are ready to go to Lingnan Road to realize their dream of making a fortune. Many officials who were originally hesitant were also ready to follow Cui Geng to Lingnan for development.

Of course, you can't go by yourself.

Lingnan Province has always been there, and it used to be a place of exile for prisoners. Why has it become fragrant today? Because of the "golden holy hand" Cui Gengbei.

Therefore, Cui Geng knows how to make a fortune, but ordinary people don't know.

Cui Geng's trip to Lingnan Road was to take a boat from Chang'an to Luoyang; Then from Luoyang along the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal Road Yangzhou. From Yangzhou to the sea, and finally to Quanzhou City on Lingnan Road.

He brought a lot of people this time, including the Yulin Army and their families who were willing to follow him. There are 10,000 Anxi troops, and there is Princess Taiping's family.

The total number of people is about 30,000 people, and the best way for everyone to do so now is to join these people.

If you can get Cui Xiang's half-word guidance on the boat, it will be a blessing that has been cultivated for several lifetimes.

Therefore, Cui Geng was pleasantly surprised to find that people kept asking to go to Lingnan Road with him, and the team of 30,000 people expanded to more than 50,000 people.

And they're all young adults!

With the addition of 20,000 repression, it will be possible to absorb 50,000 or 60,000 bureaucrats and join the economic system of Lingnan Province.

It is impossible to overstate the significance of this.

Of course, Cui Geng moved to Lingnan Road. The impact goes far beyond that.

……

Yangzhou City.

Li Banzhong had just finished lunch when he heard a sound of people shouting and neighing horses outside the courtyard gate.

He frowned slightly, "Huh? Where did this villain come from, who dared to spread wild in front of our Li family? Xu San'er, go take a look. ”

"Yes."

Xu San'er went fast and came back faster.

It didn't take much effort, so he ran back out of breath and said, "No...... Not a villain...... It's the young master...... Ah, no, it's the master back?! ”

"Young Master? Master? Li Banzhong was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized and said, "It's Gongzi who is back!" ”

Then, take three steps and make two steps, two steps and one walk, and go out the door.

Take a closer look, don't you? The real owner of this house, Li Yong, came back with a large number of retinues.

He was surprised: "Childe, why did you come back in such a hurry?" Why don't you give a notice, I'll send someone to pick you up! ”

Li Yong handed the horse to Xu San, hurriedly walked inside, shook his head and said, "What to greet?" Engage in that set of red tape, I'm afraid the daylily will be cold. ”

"What's the urgency?"

"Didn't you hear that Cui Xiang wanted to escort the Emperor Taishang to Lingnan Road?"

"I've heard that." Li Banzhong lowered his voice and said, "I also heard that Cui Xiang did not escort the Emperor Taishang to Lingnan Dao, but tied up the Emperor's ticket. Grandma's, Cui Xiang's handwriting, is much more than ours...... Uh, though, what do we have to do with that? ”

Li Yong said: "Of course it has a relationship, I can't hide it, I have already resigned and stopped doing it." Hurry up and pick dozens of shrewd and capable ones, and go to Guangzhou with me."

"Why didn't you resign? What are you doing in Guangzhou? ”

"These two issues are one and two, and two and one are problems." Li Yong explained: "Cui Xiang made it clear that when he went to Lingnan Road, he was to develop maritime trade. Don't look at Yangzhou now and Quanzhou and Guangzhou, and when Cui Xiang makes a force, Yangzhou will be nothing. We have to hurry to Guangzhou and seize the opportunity, this matter is much more important than me being an official. ”

Li Banzhong scratched his head and said, "Even if you have a point, but Guangzhou is the territory of Yu's widow~ woman, let's go, is it considered to cross the line." ”

"Don't worry. As soon as Cui Xiang exerted his strength, Guangzhou Port was prosperous, and Yu Ling's family alone would never be able to eat it. ”

"But..."

"It's nothing, hurry up, the sooner we act, the better it will be for us, otherwise when they also see the business opportunity, we will lose a lot of opportunities to make money."

Guangzhou City, Yu House.

The little maid Chunmei was slightly blessed, the corners of her mouth were slightly pretty, and she said: "Congratulations to the lady, congratulations to the lady!" ”

Yu Lingxiu frowned slightly, and said, "You girl, what do you want to do weirdly?" Where's the joy? Or...... The monthly money is gone, and you want to cheat me out of a few dollars to spend? Or maybe you're bored and deliberately teasing me? ”

"Why, don't you live the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain? In all fairness, slave and maid, am I that kind of person? ”

"You are! I'm spoiled and lawless. You see what girl like you dares to yell at her master."

Chunmei pouted and said, "Cheng, even if the slave maid did something wrong before, but this time, I didn't lie, it was really a happy event." ”

"What's the happy event?" Only then did Yu Ling believe that Chunmei really had something to tell her.

"It's just that the lord is coming back."

"Sir? What lord? Yu Ling said unhappily: "Don't chew your tongue." ”

"Didn't the slave chew her tongue? There was a lot of shouting outside. said that it was Li Longji, the crown prince of the dynasty, who launched a mutiny and ousted the old emperor from power. As a result, the old man was angry, and he wanted to protect the old emperor to come to our Lingnan Road, and he was about to leave. Look, there are so many good places in the world, what is good about Lingnan Road? I'm afraid that protecting the old emperor is fake, take the opportunity to meet Yu Niangzi, you are the real one. Chunmei said with a smile on her face

Yu Ling calmed himself and said: "He didn't come to Lingnan Road for me. ”

"But ......"

"Alright, it's nothing. Stand down. ”

"Yes.

The little maid took the order to go out, and Yu Ling's forced smile suddenly stretched out, snorted coquettishly, and said, "That guy has a little conscience." ”

After a pause, he said with some trouble: "Will he come to Guangzhou?" Do I want to prepare? Well, tomorrow I will order someone to clean up the city fox society rats in Guangzhou. ”

"That's right!"

The beautiful woman slapped her head and said, "Is he going to take a boat all the way?" As a courtesy, should I send someone to greet me? Who will you send? Wouldn't it be too reserved for me to go on my own? But if you don't go by yourself, won't it be disrespectful again?"

"Oh, I don't want to, my head hurts when I think about it, it's true, I don't notice if I want to come here, so I'm prepared, and now I'm ready, in case people don't come, wouldn't I be too faceless, just wait for it, let people pay more attention, and then make arrangements when I get here, it seems that this can't be done, what if I make a mistake in the busy?。。。。"

Because of this news, Yu Ling has been constantly persuading himself and then denying himself, repeatedly, he doesn't even want to eat, but he still hasn't sorted out his thoughts, but no matter how he says, he is still looking forward to his arrival.

……

Quanzhou City, forest house, living room.

The new Quanzhou Thorn Skelades sat in the center. Lin Zhixiang and Zhang Yuanchang looked gloomy like water, and sat on their sides to accompany each other.

Kailadis said: "How's it going?" Two, have you thought it through? ”

"This ...... Kayla stabbed Shi ......" Lin Zhixiang said with a bitter face: "What kind of "insurance" do you have to buy for every ship of our Quanzhou maritime merchants, it is said to be a good thing. But...... Isn't this a little too high? ”

Kairadis said very shamelessly: "It is precisely because of the high premium that Ben Thorn Shi has specially discounted you, 200,000 yuan per family, which is already very cheap." ”

Cheap hell!

Zhang Yuanchang scolded bitterly in his heart: If the ship is determined to be wrecked, you will be responsible for compensation. How can you be sure then? Isn't it just your word?

Don't say that it's two million yuan a year, even if it's too much for me.

Of course, despite thinking so, he didn't dare to show it on his face, and said: "200,000 yuan is too much, and we can't take out so much money at once, why don't you reduce it again?" ”

Kailadis shook his head again and again, and said, "It's 200,000 yuan, and not a penny less!" And ......"

"How?"

"In order to ensure the safety of my Tang people, Ben Thorn has decided that ships that have not purchased insurance will not be allowed to go to sea!"

"I ......"

Lin Zhixiang endured it and didn't say the word "day".

But in the end, he still smiled and said, "Okay, 200,000 is 200,000." However, with 200,000 yuan of money at once, our two families really can't afford it. Otherwise, it will be ...... a month."

Kailadis interrupted: "Cheng, then 20,000 a month, this assassin is very good to speak." ”

"20,000 a month, doesn't that become 240,000 a year?" Lin Zhang's and the old man's straight faces were as red as blood.

However, the situation is stronger than people, and they really don't have much to do.

The reason is very simple, although Princess Taiping arranged Zhou Lizhen to check and balance Kailadis, but Zhou Lizhen is the governor of Guangzhou, only in charge of military and political affairs, regardless of civil affairs. As long as he is in charge of civil affairs, it is Zhou Lizhen's not.

You can't use it as a last resort.

However, what is good or not is that this Kairadis is still very accurate. It not only made the Lin and Zhang families extremely uncomfortable, but also couldn't reach their bottom line.

Lin Zhixiang took a deep breath and said with difficulty: "Okay! 20,000 per month is ......"

But at this moment, a young man in Tsing Yi walked in with a pigeon in his hand and said, "Two family masters, Chang'an is in a hurry!" ”

"Huh? What urgent letter? ”

Lin Zhixiang took the pigeon and took out the letterhead tied to the lattice leg.

He swept it slightly, laughed, and said, "Good, good, good, God help me!" ”

Zhang Yuanchang took the letterhead and glanced at it, and he was so happy that he raised his head and said, "This time, we are going to raise our eyebrows!" ”

An ominous premonition surged into Kairadis's heart, and he said in a strange tone: "There is still something going on in this official yamen, so I will not accompany him." As for insurance...... Let's get back to that. ”

"Back to the Yamen? No need! ”

In an instant, in the eyes of Kairadis, Lin Zhixiang changed from a kind-looking rich man to a fierce beast that was choosing people to devour!

Lin Zhixiang grinned and said, "From today onwards, our Lin family is your new home!" You can spread out in the Lin family! ”

"What...... What do you mean by branching out? ”

"You'll find out later. Come! ”

"In!"

Four shirtless young men with ghost-headed knives at their waists walked in.

Lin Zhixiang said: "Plant this Kairadis assassin in the back garden of our Lin family." ”

"Whoa!"

The boys dragged them to the back garden, followed by the terrible howl of Kairadis, and after a short time, it fell silent. Since then, the Kairadis assassin has not been seen. At this time, the yamen in Quanzhou was still running in an orderly manner.

……

……

Although Li Longji launched a congenital coup d'état ahead of schedule, history quickly returned to the right track. Like a ghost making a god, after Li Longji ascended the throne, he changed his innate nature.

Today is the first year of the first year, April 23.

Cui Geng's huge team arrived at Luoyang City by boat. The river from Luoyang Road to Chang'an is not the same as the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, so you have to change boats here.

However, today's Luoyang Ling Qin Yujie spread his hands and said, "I'm sorry Cui Xiang, let's Luoyang...... No boats. ”

"Bold!"

Yang Xuanyan would not be angry with this, he stepped forward, grabbed Qin Yujie's neck, and said angrily: "No boat!" How could there be no boats? The surname is Qin, you are deliberately unhappy for our masters, right? You know, I know you, but my knife doesn't know you! ”
