Before leaving Hangzhou, Ling Qingyu hosted a banquet in Wanyu Garden for the shopkeepers and family members of the Ling family in Hangzhou, Suzhou and other places. There are already many shops under the Ling family, Tianzhuang Sifang. Dozens of tables were bustlingly opened in the front yard.
The banquet held by Ram, the boatman and the sixteen nights medicinal materials was held in the backyard.
After toasting and giving rewards in the front yard, Ling Qingyu sat with him for a while before returning to the backyard.
Still some distance away from the backyard, you could hear the noise coming from inside, Ling Qingyu stopped, and listened to the bickering between the herbs and Izayoi inside, and a smile came from the corner of his mouth.
"These brats!" Ying Shisan murmured from behind, and no one was watching, so he could make as much noise as he wanted.
"It's good to be young!" Ling Qingyu sighed, not aware of the several gazes behind her, and then sighed: "I think we were so young back then."
"Are you sure she didn't drink a drop today?" Ying Thirteen asked Ying Jiu in a low voice.
Ying Jiu nodded, looking a little sad, saw Ling Qingyu standing at the gate of the courtyard, took a deep breath, then put on his usual happy and mischievous appearance, and strode into the courtyard, feeling pain like a knife in his heart .
"One day, she will return to her former state," Ying Thirteen walked past Ying Jiu, whispering, "That kind of carefree smile."
"Where's Yan Qi?" After entering the courtyard and saying hello, Ling Qingyu looked around and asked Yang Zhao softly. Yan Qi's injury has not fully healed, there were too many people at the banquet outside today, Ling Qingyu didn't let him go out, otherwise he couldn't help but help her hold back the wine.
"He Ying Shi Ying Er went out." Yang Zhao pulled her to sit beside her, and said in a low voice. Yang Zhao could roughly guess what Yan Qi was doing, but like himself, since Yan Qi chose not to let her know, he didn't need to say it.
"Oh," Ling Qingyu nodded slightly, and then said to Ram: "Ram, when you go to Africa this time, go down a little bit to see the situation on the Cape of Good Hope."
"Sanjay can take the boat there." Ram puffed up his mouth, and said angrily with a childish expression on his manly face.
"Rahm, you are my captain." Ling Qingyu looked at him amusedly, and said with a smile: "If we want to go to Obaro, we have to go around the Cape of Good Hope. I don't know the situation there. You go and investigate. It’s better to be clear, if I remember correctly, there are also large gold mines and diamond mines there, and it’s a land rich in resources.”
Seeing Ram's expression slowly sinking, Ling Qingyu said: "That land is very suitable for living, Ram, if your people can't stay in Zhuluo, you can consider going there, of course, you can also go to Australia. "Although Ram and Sanjay never said anything, the information revealed from their occasional conversations reminded Ling Qingyu of some stories he heard when traveling in India. There were legends about the extermination of many tribes thousands of years ago. , although I don't know what Ram's family looks like, but if the situation is very bad, then that land is indeed suitable for them.
Ram lowered his head, and the soup spoon was slowly stirring in circles in the bowl. He remembered that when they first boarded the boat, they didn't know how to use chopsticks. Ling Qingyu specially found a spoon for them to use, and asked if their religion had What taboo, their clan...
"I see, I'll go find the way first," Lahm raised his head, his usual bright yet malicious smile resumed, and said, "I'll wait for you."
"it is good!"
Turning to look at Su Hexiang who had been silent all this time, Ling Qingyu asked, "Xiang, have you found someone?"
"Well, I picked a few seedlings, and I'm the head of the house. If I have time this time, I'd like to take the boat to some places above." Su Hexiang raised her head and said with a smile.
"North America?" Ling Qingyu clapped his hands, and said, "That continent is very vast and the scenery is also very good, but the local Indians are tougher than those in South America. If you meet them, remember two things Things, first, do not infringe, destroy, and blaspheme the gods they worship. Second, you must show your own force. They worship heroes. The stronger the person, the more respect they can get. Well, in this way, we must Nianyuan sent five hundred people to follow you."
"Yes."
"Master Qi," Ying Shisan greeted Yan Qi who came from the lake, and said, "The master has asked you twice."
"Did she drink today?" Yan Qi asked while walking.
"No, not a single drop. Those shopkeepers are not like the gang in Lingjia Village. They dare not respect them." Ying Shisan replied.
"Yang Zhao's power can't reach the south of the Yangtze River, and the ten shadows and two shadows are left behind. Today, these people will be handed over to you. There are still 20 million taels of silver and 1.5 million taels of gold to be transported to the south of the Yangtze River. They must be safe." Yan Yan Qi took the clothes that Ying Shisan handed over, walked all the way to change, and said to the two people behind him.
"Yes."
The warm winter sun shines brightly on the Hangzhou canal wharf. Sliding along the canal, it is a special Ling family canal boat with small sails and tread wheels, which is different from ordinary water transport boats.
The burly men standing on the boat were all dressed in uniform and looked majestic.
"The welfare of the Ling family is really good." Touching the soft and warm cloak on his body, a big man whispered.
"It's good to know, not to mention the money, but also bring three sets of clothes throughout the year, this time the sect master has finally chosen a good one."
"That is, I heard it was introduced by Ling Daxia."
"Stop talking, people are coming."
Ling Qingyu got out of the carriage, and walked to the boat along a road driven by guards wearing red cloaks on the crowded pier. He looked at the burly men on his boat for a moment, and asked, "Who are these?"
"It's people from Changwu Sect. We hired them and people from Taihu Eighteen Helms as guards." Cai Jingfang replied.
"Hehe, did Ling Yunfei set the line?" Ling Qingyu laughed.
"Yes. The head of the family, then, have a safe trip." Standing on the pier, Cai Jingfang cupped his hands.
"Boss, have a safe journey!" The herbs all said in unison.
"It's the same with you, don't be careless at sea. Remember, nothing is more important than your lives." Ling Qingyu patted Xin Yi and Su Hexiang's arms and smiled.
"Yes."
"Okay, see you later."
Watching the fleet start slowly and go along the canal, the boat with two cabins was no longer seen, and the people on the pier who saw them off went back.
After going up the steps, Su Hexiang glanced at Lamu who was standing behind the tree and did not go down, and said with a smile, "We are going to Quanzhou tomorrow, when are you leaving?"
"Leave when the goods are finished. Su Hexiang, next time I will bring back more things than you." Rahm raised his eyebrows, and smiled provocatively.
"Really? See you next year then."
"The people in Changwumen are all good at martial arts, and there are more people than those in Tiedaomen. Taihu Eighteen Rudders are very popular in Jiangnan, and they are very well-informed. They can compete with Murong's Qingtianlou." See Ling Qingyu's eyes. Looking at the big men on the boat again, Yan Qi said.
Ling Qingyu nodded. Yang Zhao had mentioned these things to her. Jianghu is very big, and there are many martial arts schools. Except for those with farms and backgrounds, most of them are actually very poor. When Ling Yunfei cleaned up those sects that participated in the encirclement and suppression of Wolong Peak, he also introduced Heifengzhai, Changwumen, Taihu Eighteen Helms to the Ling family, and reached an employment relationship with the Ling family. These three sects had They sent people to participate in the encirclement and suppression of the Demon Sect, but after they came back, everyone took measures to keep their mouths shut, and they didn't even accept the 500,000 taels of cash Ling Qingyu gave afterwards. It's like going to make soy sauce.
These sects are different from Longmen Tiedaomen. They are between the underworld and the white way. They often participate in fights in the rivers and lakes. Sometimes they have to fight against the government. Their fighting power is not generally strong, but their style of conduct is open and aboveboard. , and belonged to a group of passionate men, who didn't have any savings over the years, so they ended up very poor. It was not accidental that Ling Yunfei couldn't afford the meal, so it was not accidental that he met the Ling family who were so rich and paid for their meals. With a very conscientious and strong donor, both of them felt that it was a match made in heaven!
When we arrived in Bianjing, it was already mid-December, which was almost the end of the new year, and Bianjing was a lively scene of singing and dancing.
Before leaving Hangzhou, Ling Qingyu hosted a banquet in Wanyu Garden for the shopkeepers and family members of the Ling family in Hangzhou, Suzhou and other places. There are already many shops under the Ling family, Tianzhuang Sifang. Dozens of tables were bustlingly opened in the front yard.
