Yuan Fu Nushu

Chapter 306, Cargo

Hua Tianyu didn't go far, but it was not the style of Prince Pingxi to let his soldiers catch up with them and force them to grab drinks. He could only go back to the camp angrily, and sulk in the tent alone.

When Hua Tianyu came to pick them up, Hou Ping and Yun Fei returned early to deliver the Mid-Autumn Festival gifts. Two people who were not familiar with the Northwest accidentally got in front of the bandit's den. The problem was that they went the wrong way and wasted time.

Here the hills are surrounded by hills, and some people look at the narrow road. Hua Tianyu led the team. They dared to go, so they went straight to Guxi. Instead, Hou Ping and Yunfei led the team. The road is narrow and it is not easy to go wrong. They can only Look for open roads.

110 carloads of annual gifts and weapons were left behind, and 110 carloads of Northwest specialties were brought back. There were 110 garrisons in the small town of Guxi, and the number of people was even smaller. It is not easy to collect [-] furs in a few months.

Yuan Yuan knew that his son-in-law would give New Year gifts, isn't he a good son-in-law?
In the last Mid-Autumn Festival ceremony of [-] cars, Yuan Yuan persuaded Hua Tianyu to distribute wine and medicine generously to the surrounding guards and cities. He promised to give out the spirits, but the effective tribute hops could not be drunk by himself, so he refused to share.

Yuan Yuan declared that the wine and medicines are not for nothing, and he exchanged the accumulated fur and herbs everywhere. If everyone needs daily necessities such as salt, they will owe them for the time being, and they will inform everyone to pick them up after the son-in-law's convoy arrives.

Medicines were used more than wine, and the guards and cities near Guxi City were eager to exchange them, and furs and herbs were piled up again in the warehouses of the yamen.

Zhang Liang and another lieutenant, Hong Kuai, led a team each. One team hummed a tune to unload the truck, and the other sang a song to load the truck. The unloading and loading of the truck was completed within a day, and one night was enough for Hou Ping, Yun Fei and Yuan. talk far.

It was Hong Kuai who sent Hou Ping and Yun Fei off last time. This time Zhang Liang escorted the convoy back to the original pier. Wang Ergou was very surprised: "Are you going back to the pier with an empty car?"

Zhang Liang grinned: "Where is the empty car, you can't slander us. I said last time that no matter what happens, the son-in-law will not suffer."

Hou Ping Yunfei looked at him.

Wang Ergou also laughed: "Didn't the car be empty last time? Didn't you pretend to be upside down last time? I don't think it will take a year. Where can you get something for your son-in-law?"

Hou Ping Yunfei looked at him again, and saw that Wang Ergou's smile was actually facing him. Hou Ping had been prepared for a long time, and walked to a place where Zhang Liang couldn't see, and there were footsteps behind him, and Wang Ergou followed. .

"Here's the wine, drink it slowly if you have two catties. You can't buy this wine in the market." Hou Ping took out a sheepskin bag in one hand, and a few ingots in the other: "You take back your 20 taels, we won't sell it. liquor."

Wang Ergou was excited and refused to accept it for a long time, saying that he would give it to his daughter as a private house. Hou Ping was really angry. What kind of thing is it that the son of the world will be demoted when he sends a gift to the Northwest?

When the boat started, Wang Ergou kept waving his hands, and Zhang Liang grabbed his shoulders: "I'll talk to you,"

"Tell me, I'm listening." Wang Ergou threw an ear to him, fixed his eyes on the distant ship, shook his arms, and shouted loudly: "I will wait for you at the Dragon Boat Festival tomorrow."

There are three major gifts a year, Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, and Spring Festival. There are gifts for Mid-Autumn Festival and Chinese New Year. There is no reason not to come for the Dragon Boat Festival next year, right?
"Come over here!" Zhang Liang was annoyed, what's the matter with you at the Dragon Boat Festival next year, is Hou Guanshi giving you wine and pretending that I didn't see it?You are a small soldier in charge of the dock, and you are addicted to blackmail.

As soon as he led Wang Ergou back a few steps after him, Zhang Liang stopped in a place where no one was around. Zhang Liang said seriously and seriously: "If you want wine from your son-in-law, you have to contribute to your son-in-law. The son-in-law's family is doing business, and you keep watch." Looking at the wharf, when you see some good furs and special products from the Northwest, try to cut them off and send them to Guxi to keep for your son-in-law.”

Wang Ergou didn't reason about the irrationality of what he said. It's eight hundred miles from Lanyuancheng Wharf to Guxi. Wouldn't it be good for him to cut it off from the wharf and wait for his son-in-law to come and load the ship?If the hilly road is bad and you send it to Guxi, it is because you have no intentions and do not have so many horses, carts and manpower.

He slapped his head and called out: "You kid, didn't you tell me earlier, that is, yesterday a group of merchants who went to the northwest to receive the goods discounted the cost, and the furs were directly piled up on the pier to sell. The price is so cheap that I can't say it. Let's go, it is said that they are shipped back to the interior to make a lot of money."

Zhang Liang beat him with his fist: "It's too cheap to say, why don't you buy it, why don't you buy it?"

"Why would I buy that thing? I want furs, and I won't let you go into the mountains and bring one back for me."

Wang Ergou shrugged his head knowing that he was right. He could find any reason to make the businessman stay for a few more days. He didn't expect the son-in-law's convoy to return from the pier. In fact, Zhang Liang also said that the son-in-law would leave by boat last time. This is Wang Ergou thinking about his wine and thinking about nothing else.

He also didn't expect his son-in-law's convoy to return so quickly. He could detain the businessman for a few days, but if he detains it for too long, the military discipline of King Pingxi would not agree.

Assure Zhang Liang: "Don't worry, if someone finds someone to take over in the future, I will go all out and let him stay for a few more days. I will let Master Yuan know if I run to death."

Zhang Liang was satisfied, and sent a heartfelt message: "I smell it, the wine that Guanshi Hou gave you is also good wine, you drink it quietly, because the county king also wants to cut this wine, hee hee, a drop is not enough Did not intercept, hee hee, this thing is too happy."

Wang Ergou was stunned for a long time, took off the wine bag around his waist, and put it deep in his arms. Wearing a leather robe in this weather, his arms were already bulging, but now they are even more bulging, and there is no abnormality.

Zhang Liang went back to the city right away, and Wang Ergou cheered up to inspect the pier, a string was tensed in his mind, the son-in-law wanted fur, and the son-in-law wanted Northwest specialties
The sun is shining today, and the sunlight shines on Captain Wang's youthful face. In fact, he is not married yet.

There was no delay in going back and forth, the Grand Canal was not yet frozen, the place where the boat was changed was replaced by a big boat, and all the way back to Beijing Gate, Yuanxiu didn't care about reading the letters from his parents, and when he ordered the order, he sent a letter to the store, He Ning came happily : "This is really great. The goods sent by Uncle Yuan will be shared with us, so as to support the arrival of the goods at home that will be warmed and thawed next spring."

Isn't it not long before Qi Xunfu entered Beijing with a cargo of [-] yuan?On the day the ship arrived at the dock, Hou Pingyun flew the big boat out of the dock.Why is Brother Ning still in a hurry?
Yuanxiu knew the reason, she smiled and didn't need to ask again, Princess Jing'an is a troublemaker, Yanyan's store goods came in, the princess sent Butler Xie to buy [-] goods on the same day, Jincheng County Prince's Mansion came again the next day, After buying [-] goods, some of the goods purchased from Yanyan's store were distributed to Sister Xiu in the store of Duke Huguo's Mansion, and once again, less than half of the goods were left in one day and one night.

He Ning excitedly drove the fur cart back to the shop, thinking about how to avoid Princess Jing'an for this batch of goods.
