Chapter 440 Different roads lead to the same destination
"I have already considered what you said. I asked Yaozu to inquire about the escort agency in Huairou County. If he can hand them over to the escort agency and escort the children back to the Sunu Palace, I will send them to the escort agency in advance. Feige sent the message back and asked Suyun to take care of him. "
Wang Zhenzhen touched the bones of the remaining five children in the past few days and found that two of them had strange bones and were suitable for martial arts training, including that one. The young boy and the five-year-old girl Zha Xiaojia were the most courageous. They always gathered around her to inquire about Ripple and wanted to become her teacher.
Although the remaining three children, two boys and one girl, have average abilities, they can achieve something if they persevere. The three of them are all five or six-year-old children who don’t understand anything except their eldest brother. When they say that practicing martial arts will make them successful and they won't go hungry, they say that they also want to practice martial arts and are not afraid of hardship.
The youngest of the five is twelve years old, and he is what they call the eldest brother. He was kept because he could manage these little carrots well and prevent them from crying. He was regarded as a bandit. Share the burden. If the mother and son of "Fengqi Wutong" were not arrested, he would be sold to Mongolia together with these children before long.
"Okay, I took them to a clothing store to make two sets of clothes that day. They should be delivered today. They will be sent back to the Palace of Pure Women in tatters that cannot be worn."
"Look at these. Just do it. If you don’t have enough money, just tell me.”
Although Wang Zhenzhen is practicing martial arts in the Sunu Palace, she was born into wealth and has never been short of food and clothing.
"Don't worry, Aunt Zhen. The five thousand taels of silver contributed by the bandit this time are all with me. I plan to let the little guys take them back. At any rate, they are also gains from my experience. It can be regarded as my filial piety to the master and repay Su Su." "From the Female Palace."
Lianyi thought that during the eighteen years of her stay in the Female Palace, she had hardly done anything due to her health. Now that she has come out to practice and earn money based on her skills, naturally, Give something back.
"You make the decision on this matter."
Wang Zhenzhen had no objection.
She only knows the six thousand taels of silver notes on the surface, but she doesn’t know that the bandit’s entire wealth is still lying in the ripple space. Qi Qi, who is currently suspicious, can’t find any flaw in the ripple. Qingshi The wealth accumulated by the canyon bandits disappeared out of thin air, which has always been a mystery.
Wang Yaozu completed his task and knocked on the door of the inn. After entering, he said:
"The escort agency happened to have a escort passing through Changchuan Town and could take the child back. They offered fifty taels.”
"Did you bargain?"
"Fifty taels are not expensive!"
Wang Yaozu blurted out.
"Tsk, tsk, you are really a rich young man. When you are not a family member, you don't know how much firewood, rice, oil, and salt are worth. My senior sister and I have gone out to practice, and we haven't spent fifty taels of silver yet!"
"Then I will discuss it with them again.”
Wang Yaozu said knowingly.
"No need, as long as the escort can send the person back safely, the money will be spent."
"When will they set off?"
"Tomorrow morning, If there is no reply in the afternoon, they will not wait for us and will set off tomorrow morning."
Wang Yaozu inquired quite clearly.
"Okay, take the money and sign the deed with them. I'll prepare a carriage and send them there tomorrow morning."
"Okay!"
Lianyi didn't waste any time, just throw it away Give the other party five taels of silver ingots and let him run errands.
It happened that the clerk from the clothing store also came to deliver the goods. Lianyi arranged for the clerk to boil hot water, clean up the five children, put on new clothes and shoes, and explained their whereabouts.
"Xia Xia, can we meet again?"
The young boy asked in a low voice.
"Of course, when I make a name for myself in the world, I will go back to promote the Sunu Palace. I will examine your skills at that time."
"How long will it take?"
The person asking the question this time was the little girl.
“Maybe one year, maybe two years, I can’t tell.”
"We must practice well and not embarrass the heroine."
The young boy clenched his fist and said.
Lianyi nodded with a smile, and finally sewed all the five thousand taels of silver notes into the young boy's clothes, and told her that when she saw Suyun, she would give the clothes to him and he would understand.
After settling these things, Wang Yaozu came back out of breath. He gave the signed deed to Lianyi, hesitated for a while and then said:
"I saw an acquaintance in the escort agency. ”
"Who?"
"A classmate I didn't deal with in school."
"He is from Huairou County?"
"No, but the Shipping Department The director is his grandfather. "What's his name?"
"Hai Zanghong."
Wang Yaozu replied immediately.
“Did you have a conflict with him?”
“No, I recognized him. He must not be sure it’s me, after all, my current clothes are too ordinary.”
After Wang Yaozu finished speaking, he looked at the coarse clothes on his body.
"I said, your life is the most important thing in everything. We will set off the day after tomorrow. You can go and rest first!"
Lianyi dismissed the person and turned to ask Wang Zhenzhen.
“Aunt Zhen, does the Wang family’s business involve shipping?”
“Of course, going to sea is extremely risky, but high risks are accompanied by high profits, so it is the main source of our Wang family’s income. , three generations of the Wang family have opened up a channel on the sea, known as the golden shipping line, which has always been under our control."
Wang Zhenzhen thought for a while and said.
"No wonder it has attracted so much covetation. This is a chicken that can lay golden eggs. Now it is exclusively owned by the Wang family, so some people are naturally unwilling."
"It's not like the Wang family hasn't looked for partners. But the high cost scared them away, and some people quit because they couldn't bear the losses due to one or two shipwrecks. "
Wang Zhenzhen heard this from her mother Wu.
"In this case, why not cooperate with the royal family? They are the biggest backers, and the Wang family is the royal businessman."
"The royal family only wants benefits and does not want to take risks. What do we have? Method.”
Wang Zhenzhen spread her hands and said.
“Stop thinking nonsense, you will know all this when you return to the Wang family.
Whether the Wang family will face difficulties in the future or retreat bravely depends on the current head of the family. "
"I know, Aunt Zhen! I just think the appearance of Wang Yaozu's classmate is a bit too coincidental."
On the other side, Hai Zanghong followed Wang Yaozu out of the escort agency. Holding the folding fan in his hand, thoughtfully.
"Sir, the letter to the master has been sent back by the escort agency. When will we set off?"
"No hurry, you go do something for me."
Hai Zanghong said to himself The attendant ordered.
"Yes, sir, please give me your instructions."
"Inquire about that person's whereabouts."
Hai Zanghong pointed at the gray-clothed driver who merged into the crowd and ordered.
"Yes, little one, let's go right away."
After the attendant responded, he chased after him.
Wang Meimei, who was guarding the gate of the county government office, finally waited for Xiao Shu. She immediately went up to him and asked:
"Brother Xiao, how is the situation?"
"We were used. The news was false."
"It turned out to be true."
Wang Meimei's face immediately dropped.
“Who else have you heard said it’s fake?”
“I heard from Lianyi. She said that since the other party was a meticulous craftsman, if he really got the treasure map, he would have taken action long ago. It’s impossible to stay in Bluestone Canyon, so what should we do next?”
"Go to Longxi. All the rumors about treasures spread from there."
