Zhao Jinge had been waiting for Jiang Zhen, and he was restless. After hearing the news of Jiang Zhen, he couldn't sit still, so he got on the boat that came to report.
Standing on the small boat and seeing Jiang Zhen on the big boat from a distance, the corners of Zhao Jinge's mouth couldn't help but turn up.
These few days, he felt uncomfortable and retched at every turn, but now that he saw Jiang Zhen, all those discomforts disappeared.
How could he even think about retching now? I just wanted to talk to Jiang Zhen as soon as possible.
Zhao Jinge thinks of Jiang Zhen, and Jiang Zhen also thinks of Zhao Jinge.
Seeing Zhao Jinge standing on the bow of the boat and looking in his direction, Jiang Zhen's eyes lit up, and he felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart.
It is definitely a happy and happy thing to have someone who greets you and shares your joy when you return home with something.
When the boat approached, Jiang Zhen pulled the rope ladder and jumped off the big boat, landing beside Zhao Jinge.
Because of his sudden fall, the boat shook violently and became very unstable. Brother Zhao Jin almost fell, but before he fell, Jiang Zhen already hugged him: "Brother Jin, I miss you so much!"
Zhao Jinge blushed and was speechless.
How could Jiang Zhen hug him in public and say all this? Does he not know how to be shy
Brother Zhao Jin didn't say a word, but he was happy. Then, he felt Jiang Zhen touched his head and touched his face down: "Brother Jin, do you miss me?"
Zhao Jinge nodded slightly incomprehensibly.
Jiang Zhen laughed, if it wasn't for Zhao Jinge's low head, he would have wanted to kiss him.
Jiang Zhen hugged Zhao Jinge and didn't want to let it go, and on the big boat behind him, many people watched this scene and didn't know why.
"Who is this person?" asked the woman who stood up to talk to Jiang Zhen before. This woman's name is Liu Qianqian. She helped to move things before, which made her hands and arms hurt, so not only did she not let go of her thoughts about Jiang Zhen, but she became more determined to win.
She also didn't ask Jiang Zhen to marry her, as long as she didn't give her any more jobs, so that she could eat and drink well.
"Yeah, who is this person?" A particularly delicate-looking Shuang'er also asked. This pair's name is Zhao Lingxi. He was originally a house-filler, but he was robbed by water bandits on the way back to his hometown. , and then was caught in the water bandit den, and Najuren was also killed.
He was reluctant to join those water bandits, but after being hungry for a few days, he couldn't support it anymore, and now that he has left those water bandits, he is more and more open to letting go.
His husband was gone, and after living in the water bandit's den for so long, if he went back to his hometown, he would only be caught and soaked in a pig cage.
And he felt that Jiang Zhen was a good support.
When Jiang Zhen came up the mountain that day, he saw it. This man is really brave and brave! I heard that the leaders of the water bandits were also killed by him...
Such an outstanding person is willing to follow even if he has no money, not to mention that now the money of the water bandits is in his hands, it is impossible for him to be out of money.
Liu Qianqian and Zhao Lingxi looked at each other, and there seemed to be crackling sparks flashing between them, and then they looked at He Chunsheng together.
He Chunsheng was stared at by such two great beauties, and was very uncomfortable. He paused and said, "That's our eldest daughter-in-law."
"Daughter-in-law?" Both Liu Qianqian and Zhao Lingxi sneered, it's not a lie to lie! That person is clearly a man!
Wait... That man has a scar between his brows, he... Maybe it's really Shuang'er
Jiang Zhen said before that he wanted to find someone to serve his daughter-in-law, and he dismissed them. They also thought that his two children were beautiful, but it turned out to be such an ugly person, who looked almost like a man
"Our eldest daughter-in-law is very powerful." He Chunsheng said again, he knew that the two were interested in Jiang Zhen, so he wanted to dispel their thoughts.
Don't say anything else, Zhao Jinge fights even more than him, such two small-bodied beauties, it is estimated that they can get down with one fist.
He Chunsheng was stating the facts, but both Liu Qianqian and Zhao Lingxi were wrong.
This person is very powerful... Is he particularly jealous
I think too, he is so ugly, if he is not more powerful, can't there be a bunch of concubines at home
However, what is the use of a pair of children, no matter how powerful they are? If a man wants to carry someone home, that's not something he can stop.
It's that Jiang Zhen seems to have a lot of affection for that person, which is more troublesome...
Liu Qianqian and Zhao Lingxi looked at each other, and they both raised their fighting spirit.
Their previous experience was not glorious, and good people probably don't want them to be concubines, but this Jiang Zhen is different. He was born in poverty, and he definitely doesn't care so much about women's past, and his daughter-in-law is not good-looking...
Following Jiang Zhen, they should be able to be a concubine!
Brother Zhao Jin didn't know that someone was thinking of becoming a concubine for Jiang Zhen. After being hugged by Jiang Zhen for a while, he pushed Jiang Zhen away: "Are you alright?"
"I'm so powerful, what can I do? I just miss you very much." Jiang Zhen squeezed Zhao Jinge's hand teasingly.
Zhao Jinge's head lowered again, and he was a little confused whether to squeeze Jiang Zhen's hand as well.
"Brother Jin, I got a lot of good things this time, you can go up and have a look with me." Seeing Brother Zhao Jin like this, Jiang Zhen said.
Now he especially wants to show off in front of Zhao Jinge, let Zhao Jinge know how powerful he is.
Brother Zhao Jin nodded.
Jiang Zhen asked Zhao Jinge to climb up the rope ladder first, followed by himself, and as soon as he climbed up, he saw Zhao Jinge, who came up first, frowning and staring at the two people with a bad expression.
Those two people... weren't they the ones who recommended themselves before to serve others
"What are you doing here? Don't go to work? If you don't work, don't expect to have food later." Jiang Zhen said unceremoniously, he didn't support idlers.
Liu Qianqian and Zhao Lingxi's expressions froze together, and then Liu Qianqian was the first to react, she threw a wink at Jiang Zhen, and her voice was soft and sweet: "Jiang Ye, don't rush, I'll go to work right away. "
When Zhao Lingxi heard the words, he also smiled at Jiang Zhen, his voice was a bit hooking: "Master, I'll go to work right away."
The two of them left after speaking, the thin clothes clearly showed their figures in front of people, and the back figure was already very attractive.
Jiang Zhen didn't look at them, instead he frowned - what was wrong with what these two said
Jiang Zhen felt something was wrong, and Zhao Jinge felt even more wrong.
As soon as he came up, two very good-looking people came to greet him, which made him subconsciously alert and very unhappy. Later, Jiang Zhen called those two people to work, which made him feel a little better.
However... the tone and demeanor of these two people when they said they were going to work was completely wrong, and they even glared at Jiang Zhen!
Brother Zhao Jin only felt his anger rising, and it was extremely sour.
"Brother Jin, don't worry about them." Jiang Zhendao, leaned into Zhao Jinge's ear and said, "They are not serious people, we just stay away."
Jiang Zhen does not discriminate against people like Liu Qianqian and Zhao Lingxi, and even if some danger is unavoidable, rather than committing suicide, he prefers those women to think like these two.
But he doesn't hate them, but it doesn't mean that he wants to be involved with them, and he doesn't want Brother Zhao Jin to be involved with them.
What if Zhao Jinge was seduced by them? !
When Zhao Jinge heard Jiang Zhen's words, he first breathed a sigh of relief, but then became worried again.
There are also unruly women in their village. There is a widow like this. She is not good-looking, but because she is good at hooking up, many men in the village have an affair with her.
Those men actually looked down on her, and no one wanted to marry her, but they always went to sleep with her...
The more irregular it is, the more it will hook people up!
Everyone in the village said that it doesn't matter how many times a man steals from someone, they still have a wife in their hearts, but... As long as he thinks that Jiang Zhen might be intimate with someone, he is not happy.
But he just couldn't compare to those two... Those two are really good-looking, how about him? Not only is he ugly, but his body is thick.
If those two seduce Jiang Zhen...
Zhao Jinge felt a little inferior subconsciously, but soon, fighting spirit rose again in his heart.
Even if Jiang Zhen might fall in love with others in the future, but now Jiang Zhen has not done that, and is still willing to be with him, he can't let the goblins outside take Jiang Zhen away!
Not even if you just steal it a few times!
Zhao Jinge pretended to have something in his heart and wanted to compare others, but for some reason, he forgot about retching.
"Jiang Zhen, what happened to those two people?" Zhao Jinge tried his best to suppress his jealousy, trying to understand the enemy's situation from Jiang Zhen.
"I rescued them from the water bandit's stockade, and I don't know the specific situation." Jiang Zhendao, and then told Zhao Jinge about the previous matter.
Zhao Jinge listened very carefully. After listening, he suddenly said: "I am very strong, I can easily fight a large bag of rice at a time!" Does he still have a place comparable to those two...
Is Brother Zhao Jin trying to compare his strength with others? Jiang Zhen laughed and squeezed Zhao Jinge's hand again: "But I can't bear you to move rice." After training, let Zhao Jinge carry things... He couldn't bear it.
He is unwilling to do it if someone else does it for him, how can Zhao Jinge be allowed to do it
"It's nothing to move something." Zhao Jinge said.
"You should be served." Jiang Zhen said: "By the way, Brother Jin, I found a servant for you."
After Jiang Zhen finished speaking, he asked someone to call the cook and mother and son.
The mother and son have already packed themselves and put on clean clothes, but they are somewhat restrained.
"This little Shuang'er will be by your side from now on. Let him do everything you need. This woman is a cook. You can ask her to cook for you what you want to eat." Jiang Zhen said.
"I don't need others to serve, and I don't have much work to do, so why do I need to pay someone?" Zhao Jinge said quickly, he has hands and feet, he can do any job, and he doesn't need others to serve him at all.
Also, the servant and the cook... Was it because he had been vomiting so much before that Jiang Zhen wanted to ask someone to take care of him
At this moment, Zhao Jinge not only felt embarrassed, but also felt a little guilty. He just felt that he was so useless.
"Hu... Madam..." The cook looked at Brother Zhao Jin pleadingly. Her man had been killed by the water bandits, and a son had died. If Brother Zhao Jin didn't want them to take care of her... She didn't know where she could go in the future.
Zhao Jinge became uneasy when he saw the pleading expression of the cook, Jiang Zhen noticed his situation, put his hand on his shoulder, and said to the cook, "I hired you, you just need to take good care of Mrs. Oh, by the way, go to the kitchen and make something to eat, not greasy and meaty, Madam has a bad appetite these days."
The cook was relieved and nodded again and again, but Jiang Zhen took Zhao Jinge back to the room.
"I really don't need to wait, or... Let's introduce her to a job?" Brother Zhao Jin said, and was a little worried: "So many people... What can I do in the future?" Jiang Zhen said that he rescued almost 300 people, so Many people eat a lot of food in one day, right
Zhao Jinge suddenly felt that he didn't have enough money to spend.
"Brother Jin, look what this is all about?" Jiang Zhen suddenly opened a box in the room.
Pieces of white flowers in the box, large and small silver ingots were piled together like that.
"This group of water bandits don't have a lot of money, but they also have around 50,000 taels, and there are many more valuable goods." When the water bandit leader unified the various water bandit gangs, he also robbed those people of the money. So much so that I have saved a lot of money.
In fact, 50,000 taels... He said that it was less, because he was afraid that Brother Zhao Jin would be frightened.
However, this amount of money is very, very much for Zhao Jinge, but in fact it doesn't go much. Zheng Yi's main boat has a step-by-step bed that he wants to bring to Miss Zheng's family in the capital as a dowry. A bed is worth tens of thousands of taels.
50,000 taels... Zhao Jinge was completely stunned.
Once upon a time, all his belongings were less than fifty taels, but now... he has fifty thousand taels inexplicably
Zhao Jinge was a little dazed, sitting on the edge of the bed and speechless.
Is this stuck? Jiang Zhen grabbed Zhao Jinge's chin and kissed him several times. After finding that Zhao Jinge still didn't respond, he made a gesture to untie Zhao Jinge's pants.
Brother Zhao Jin finally came to his senses at this time, and then grabbed his waistband in shame and annoyance.
Jiang Zhen laughed, let go of Brother Zhao Jin, and said, "Brother Jin, let's go, let's go to see Zheng Shao." The boat has stopped, and he should report to Zheng Yi.
Jiang Zhen took Zhao Jinge, who was a little dizzy, to see Zheng Yi, told Zheng Yi what happened this time, and said: "Zheng Shao, I took the money from the water bandits, and this time it was possible thanks to this. After Zheng Shao, there are still people on those ships and the goods on board, Zheng Shao can go and receive them."
Ships and goods are the most valuable, and this is not so difficult for Zheng Yi to understand.
He still has a lot to rely on Zheng Yi, and this time he went north, really speaking, he was just an employee of Zheng Yi.
Jiang Zhen said this, but Zheng Yi did not agree: "Jiang Zhen, if it wasn't for you this time, let alone keep the goods, even if it was my own life, I might not be able to keep it, how could I take yours again? Things, your fleet, just follow my fleet, and when the goods are sold in the capital, you can bring in some more goods and bring them back to Jiangnan."
After Zheng Yi finished speaking, seeing that Jiang Zhen seemed to have something to say, he immediately said: "Jiang Zhen, I won't lie to you, I only did this because I saw your value. We can do more in the future. cooperate."
Even if Zheng Yi was rich enough, he wouldn't dislike having a lot of money. Of course he also wanted those goods.
But the value of Jiang Zhen is definitely higher than the value of those goods.
Zheng Yi didn't ask Jiang Zhen to give him the ship and cargo, but he happily accepted the crew that Jiang Zhen gave him.
He is really short of people!
With enough crew, it rested for another night, and the next day, the fleet set off again.
At this time, the person Jiang Zhen sent to report the case had already returned.
The people of this Guangping prefecture are struggling to survive, and countless people have fallen into trouble. Of course, it cannot be just because of the drought.
In fact, for the people of Guangping Prefecture, man-made disasters are more terrifying than natural disasters, and this man-made disaster was discovered after this natural disaster.
In the past few months, the officials of Quang Ping Prefecture have almost changed.
The newly appointed officials were ambitious at first and wanted to manage this place well, but after learning about the situation in Guangping Prefecture, they all felt helpless.
The people have all become bandits, and they want to find the army to suppress the bandits.
It's really a den of bandits!
Looking at the yamen in the yamen who were sitting in the shade of the trees and shaking their fans, a newly appointed county magistrate in Guangping Prefecture couldn't help but gritted his teeth—this day is going to be impossible!
He wanted these people to do something for him, but these people ignored him!
The county magistrate was depressed when the staff he brought suddenly ran from the outside and charged at him with excitement: "Sir, my lord, the group of water bandits in Xishan have been taken away!"
In this county, because there is a big river and a big pier, and the ships and merchants will stop there, they can still make a lot of money, but since a group of water bandits appeared in Xishan, the ships of those merchants did not dare to be at the pier. stopped.
Now that those water bandits have been wiped out, this is a great thing!
"Is this true?" The county magistrate jumped up with disbelief on his face.
"Really! This is what someone came to report and brought a few water bandits over," the staff said, "They are Jin Zhen's guards, and those water bandits want to snatch the boat they are guarding, only then will they be caught by them. The nest is over."
"Jin Zhen Escort Bureau? Yes, really good!" The county magistrate was very happy.
Without the water bandits, the pier will be useful again. He gathers the defeated water bandits, and allows them to work for him, and... Although the valuable things in the water bandit stockade are probably taken away, but those It's impossible for a person to take everything away. If he digs three feet in the ground, he can always get some money so that he won't be able to use the yamen because he can't issue the monthly case because of the debt...
"Sir, let's go to Xishan to see!" The magistrate was thinking so, and the yamen who had been enjoying the cool air gathered around together, their eyes glowing green.
