Can you live forever

Chapter 122 The heart passes through Yunxiu, the bird is tired and knows (Happy New Year, first order!)
Inside the Daxiong Palace.

The stunning girl dressed in white worshiped the Buddha devoutly, attracting countless eyes. The girl was like a delicate white lotus flower, blooming with a pure aura inside and out, but it seemed that things would be turned against each other. Purity to the extreme is the ultimate temptation.

Wang Cuiqiao has been praying for Zhang Zhixiang for a month.

This month, I don't know how many princes and nobles' children have been attracted. Almost all the men in the capital are crazy about her. Among them, there are many domineering people who want to take her away forcibly.

After Da Fangfeng made two shots, those people finally calmed down.

Knowing that Wang Cuiqiao's "master" is the newly promoted national teacher, the little celestial master of Longhu Mountain who has become famous all over the world recently.

Therefore, tough measures are not advisable, and we can only rely on probation.Countless self-proclaimed romantic sons followed Wang Cuiqiao to Jiming Temple to worship Buddha, intending to win the hearts of beauties.

But Wang Cuiqiao grew up in Chengyifang since she was a child, can she not know what these men think in their hearts?

She didn't pay any attention to it, but just worshiped the Buddha sincerely, asking the Lord Buddha to bless Zhang Zhixiang to be able to go smoothly. The little girl Yushui also has this kind of heart, but she often falls asleep while chanting. Little by little.

Zhang Zhixiang walked into the Daxiong Palace.

Seeing Yushui's appearance, he couldn't help but smile knowingly, stepped forward, tapped Yushui on the head, and said, "Hey, I'm home."

"Yeah, master?"

Yushui woke up in a daze, and when he saw Zhang Zhixiang, he threw himself into his arms. The little girl was petite, although she was ten years old, but Zhang Zhixiang had grown a little in the past three months, and she was not much shorter than the little girl up.

Wang Cuiqiao looked at Yu Shui's coquettish appearance, and a trace of envy flashed in her eyes.

Seeing Zhang Zhixiang looking at her, she gave a little blessing, lowered her eyebrows and shouted pleasantly: "Master."

"Have you been praying for me these days?"

"Ah."

"Have a heart."

After giving a comment like this, Zhang Zhixiang led his maid to leave. There was a hint of disappointment in her eyes, but she didn't complain, she just followed behind with a low eyebrow and pleasing to the eye, not annoying anyone at all.

however.

Some people couldn't stand it, the group of young masters who were chasing her couldn't get what they wanted, but they got too involved in the drama, and they looked like they were in love, and some people immediately defended her.

"You stop!"

"Zhang Zhixiang, right? In order to pray for you, Ms. Qiao'er has been going to the Lord Buddha every morning to offer incense and chant scriptures at Mao hour for the past month, and she only returns home after the sun goes down."

"She has worked so hard, and that's all you have to say?"

"If you don't know how to feel pity, then give Qiao'er to me!"

Zhang Zhixiang turned around when he heard the words, and saw a greasy-haired and pink-faced son, and didn't refute anything, just said: "If she wants to go with you, you can take it with you."

"real!!"

The young master was overjoyed, and hurried forward two steps, afraid that Wang Cuiqiao would not recognize him, he introduced himself again, and said: "Miss Qiaoer, Xiaosheng's name is Fan Lingyu, and she is the eldest son of the Fan family in Jiexiu, Shanxi!"

"The Fan family is the head of the eight Shanxi merchants, with a huge family fortune."

"I, I haven't married a wife yet. If you are willing to follow me, I will definitely be dressed in red makeup and carry a big sedan chair eight times to welcome you in."

Jiexiu Fan.

Zhang Zhixiang recalled the Eight Great Merchants of Shanxi, the Eight Great Imperial Merchants of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, aren't they the same?

It is said that most of the richest people in Beijing belong to Shanxi merchants, but I never expected to meet a random young master who is from the Fan family, Shanxi merchants...

"Don't bother Mr. Fan to show your love."

Wang Cuiqiao bowed lightly to Fan Lingyu, then walked directly behind Zhang Zhixiang without looking at him, acting like a maidservant, which made Fan Lingyu very angry after being astonished.

"You! You! How can you not love yourself so much! You would rather be a handmaid than my wife!"

Wang Cuiqiao didn't speak, but looked at Zhang Zhixiang with those clever eyes, begging and aggrieved, as if she was being bullied, Zhang Zhixiang sighed, and said, "Yiqiong, help Mr. Fan to wake up."

"Got it!"

Yiqiong smiled excitedly, pulled out a whip from her waist, rushed forward gorgeously, and lashed towards Fan Lingyu's cheek, Fan Lingyu couldn't dodge in time, the cheek was swept by the whip, drawing a hot red mark.

"How dare you hit me!!"

Fan Lingyu covered his face, full of disbelief.

Zhang Zhixiang tilted his head strangely, and asked, "Wang Yanghao is still in my hands, why do you think I dare not hit you?"

Fan Lingyu shuddered instantly.

Until Zhang Zhixiang and his party left, he didn't dare to say a word, and the group of sons who followed him didn't laugh at him, they just sighed: "This is too domineering..."

……

The Wang family also has a big house in the capital.

It can't compare to the Guiyuan Garden in Yingtianfu, but it is also a big courtyard with four entrances.

Even if they got the Yan Yin of the "Dengwen" two outlines, the Wang family was not in a hurry to go back. They knew that Zhang Zhixiang would not stay in the capital for too long, so they waited for him to return together.

However, Wang Yuanzhi is very busy and rarely goes home these days.

It is the same to ask Wang Jiangque about the Fan family.

"The five major merchant groups, Anhui Merchants, Zhejiang Merchants, Su Merchants, Guangdong Merchants, and Shanxi Merchants, are different from the other four relying on maritime trade. Shanxi Merchants mainly deal in salt, iron, tea and horses. Do business along the Ancient Tea Horse Road.”

"In terms of trade volume, Shanxi merchants are inferior to the other four major merchant groups."

"After all, the land transportation capacity and cost are too great."

"Although Shanxi merchants earn less, they dominate the bank business in the north, and they can mobilize a lot of funds. Their influence on the northern economy is far greater than their wealth."

Zhang Zhixiang understood what Wang Jiangque meant.

Shanxi merchants may earn the least money, but their strength is not the weakest. This is related to the great north-south environment of Ming Dynasty. The south has almost entered an industrial society, but the north is still an agricultural society.

There is no doubt that the five major merchant gangs are headed by Huizhou merchants, but it is not easy to compare which of the other four is strong or weak.

Wang Jiangque didn't say anything else.

The top wealthy merchants in Ming Dynasty all had Zodiac Tokens, for example, Wang Yuanzhi had Wuma Tokens in his hand, and the eight families of Shanxi merchants were actually dominated by the Fan family, and the other seven were subordinates.

Therefore, the Fan family also has a zodiac order.

But it doesn't really matter if you say it or not.

Everyone in Huizhou Merchants has a zodiac order. The Wang family is like that, and the Xu family is also offended. Zhang Zhixiang is really not afraid of these.

Wang Jiangque didn't take this small conflict to heart. After all, they were about to leave the capital. She looked at Zhang Zhixiang and asked, "When do you plan to return to Longhu Mountain?"

"See you again, the emperor, and it's almost time to go back."

Zhang Zhixiang gazed at the scenery outside the door, looking at the strange sky, tired after being out for so long, and also homesick.

The cloud has no heart to go out of Xiu, and the bird knows to return when it is tired.

Enough experience in the WTO, it's time to go back to digest and meditate.
