Chapter 295
Seeing that the sun was setting outside, and the room was getting colder, Ya'er came in to ask twice, but was dealt with by Hu Sanniang and went out first. Ya'er knew that her lady was in a bad mood, so she silently asked the farmer to bring in a brazier, and then went out again. Turn on the earth heater outside the house, put down the curtain, and let the three women sit freely in the house.

"Do you believe him or not?" Hu Sanniang suddenly asked Zeng Saihua and Sister Gu.

Both of them knew that Hu Sanniang knew about their relationship with Sun Xin a long time ago, and now they are also seeking their support.Zeng Saihua nodded: "I believe him."

Sister Gu thought for a while, then nodded.

Hu Sanniang looked at the burning brazier and muttered to herself.

"I don't doubt Xianggong's busy heart for Sunjiazhuang at all, and I also believe that Xianggong will definitely do his best to go to the women this time. Although everyone says that he has escaped death, I believe that he will be able to come back this time. He promised me that he would run through the commercial road to the north."

The stove was crackling and burning.

"Even if there is no news for a month, even if these people are forced to come to Sun Family Manor, I will keep this family property for him."

The two women watched as Hu Sanniang's face was flickered by the red light in the gradually darkened room.

"Let's go eat something first, and stay in the yard tonight." Hu Sanniang got up, and Zeng Saihua and Gu Dajie quickly followed suit. The three of them were about to go out together when they heard footsteps outside.

"The owner has sent a letter!" In an instant, the three women froze in place.

The curtain was lifted, and a farmer and soldier from Sunjiazhuang rushed in against the wind and snow. Regardless of the snowflakes that fell on his hat, he panted heavily and handed a letter in his arms to Hu Sanniang.

Hu Sanniang took the letter, and saw that there were four or five tables covered with wax lacquer, and the chicken feathers on the letter were crooked.For a moment, Hu Sanniang's hands couldn't help shaking.

The farmer and soldier also wanted to know the contents of the letter, but Wei Wei still obeyed the discipline with his probe, and his forced curiosity retreated, Hu Sanniang tore open the envelope with trembling hands and unfolded the letter.

"My wife and three mothers, seeing the words is like meeting..." The words in the letter were written by Sun Xin. The language is extraordinarily simple and the handwriting is beautiful, and there are always some strange-looking words mixed in.

Sun Xin's letter was not long, and he said that he had already done most of his work in the Kingdom of Jin, and he would be back in a while, and it should be spring when he got home.

He also said that if there is any pressure here in Dengzhou, she must make it clear to those people that they have found a market in the north now, and as long as he comes back, all the hemp yarn hoarded in Dengzhou can be sold.

In the end, the letter was signed with a few words. I asked her and the child's situation, saying that it was not convenient for him to communicate here, and he was afraid that Dengzhou would be waiting in a hurry. The letter will arrive in half a month, I hope it is not too late.

The final payment date was more than 20 days ago, and Zhao Sunxin's estimate that the letter could be sent back within half a month seems to be too optimistic.

Hu Sanniang's hands trembled uncontrollably, and when she looked up she saw Zeng Saihua and Sister Gu looking at him eagerly, and Hu Sanniang handed them the letter again.

Zeng Saihua and Gu Dajie hurriedly gathered beside the fire, carefully reading the handwriting on the letter.But Hu Sanniang only felt her legs go limp, and she sat down on the stool with a bang.

"Sister, are you okay?" Zeng Saihua quickly came to help him, but Hu Sanniang smiled and shook her head: "He is really okay, I knew..."

Zeng Saihua smiled and said: "Yes, I just said how could something happen to a person like him?" As he spoke, he turned his head away, secretly took out a handkerchief and couldn't stop wiping away tears.

"I knew I shouldn't worry about him." Sister Gu also sniffled.

Hu Sanniang smiled and said, "Why are you crying? Isn't it something to be happy about?"

"I'm going to tell my brother about this." Hu Sanniang smiled and picked up the letter and went out to find Sun Li.

Sister Gu and Zeng Saihua quickly said to go with them, Hu Sanniang smiled and said, "Why do we need so many people? You guys rest here first, and we will have dinner together when you come back later."

She walked out of the door with a smile on her face, came to the bottom of the porch, stood quietly and couldn't help reading the letter again and again, and then wiped her tears away from the place where no one was around.

Looking at the wind and snow in the north, Sanniang cried and laughed: "I knew you were fine..."

Sun Xin continued to wait for more than ten days, and the Jin people kept sending people to deliver some things, but they did not contact Ma Zheng. Instead, a nobleman from the Jin Kingdom sent a servant to invite Pan Jinlian, saying that their master had met him before. Pan Jinlian's mother and daughter thought her daughter was cute, so they wanted to invite her mother and daughter to play in the mansion.

Pan Jinlian asked who that person was, she only said that it was a nobleman who had been a guest in their building in Luzhou that day.

Pan Jinlian said to Sun Xin: "It's the bearded man I mentioned who likes Yun'er. I saw that man was kind to our mother and daughter before."

Ma Zhengdao: "Sun Guanren, what do you think?"

Sun Xin thought for a while: "It's probably because he doesn't want to come out to negotiate with us in person, and he just uses this as an excuse to stabilize our hearts."

Ma Zheng felt that Sun Xin was right, and asked again: "Should we go at this time?"

Sun Xin said with a smile, "Why don't we stay here?"

Ma Zheng was taken aback, but also dumbfounded: "Then Mrs. Lao will go to the nobleman's house and say something nice for us."

Pan Jinlian nodded and took Yun'er to go, went to that family's house to play for an afternoon, and when she came back, Yun'er changed into new clothes, Pan Jinlian said that it was the courtesy that the middle-aged man treated them when they arrived at that person's house He was extremely considerate, he just let them stay with the ladies in the back house, and did not conflict with anything. As for Yun'er's new clothes, they were specially given by the nobleman of that family because he thought the child was beautiful.

Sun Xin asked her if the nobleman had asked him about anything, Pan Jinlian nodded and asked about some personnel in the mission.

After that, Ma Zheng was still treated coldly here, but the nobleman would call Pan Jinlian to visit his house every now and then.After going to Mazheng three times, I became a little anxious, "We have been here for more than a month, and we have been around this Huanglong Mansion, so what is the attitude of the people of Jin Kingdom?"

Sun Xin said with a smile: "Before Li Liangsi died in the Kingdom of Jin, they were also afraid of melon fields and plums, so they deliberately stretched us, trying to make us lose our temper and then talk to us slowly, so as to prevent us from taking Li Liangsi's death. Find their bad luck."

Seeing that Ma Zheng was still in a hurry, Sun Xin said with a smile: "If he had no idea, he wouldn't ask Pan Jinlian to go so many times during the time period. Wait for a while, and most of the things will be settled."

After Sun Xin and Zong Han signed the contract, they continued to discuss how to establish a trade channel during this period. If they want to deliver goods to Luzhou, they must open up the channel of Korea. During this period, Wu Song and Deng Fei ran away. After a trip to Korea, several communications have already made the journey clear.According to the locals, the hydrological conditions of the seaport here in Koryo are not bad. As long as there are sea owners with some sailing skills, they can easily reach here by boat. The reason why the business here is not prosperous is because there are few people.

Sun Xin decided to ask Meng Kang to take people to take this route himself after returning, so as to determine the type of ship they will build when they deliver goods to the north in the future.

After everything was finalized, the turning point of the negotiation also appeared appropriately.

This morning a team of people appeared in front of the building, the carriage was extremely luxurious, but Sun Xin and Lehe found that the servant in front of the carriage was the person sent by Zong Han to negotiate with him for the purchase of linen yarn, they reacted in a daze ——It really doesn't bother the two masters.

When Pan Jinlian saw a man with big arms and a round waist, he got off the carriage and whispered to Ma Zheng and Sun Xin that it was the noble Jurchen who he had invited him and Yun'er to talk to several times.

Sun Xin and Ma Zheng had already guessed this matter before. Wan Yan Zonghan was not proficient in Chinese, and he could listen or speak, but he had the general meaning of Chinese proficiency around him.

This contact does not hope to reach any covenant, but to establish a communication mechanism first. After staying in Huanglong Mansion for more than a month, both parties have roughly figured out the psychology of the other side, and the matter is very smooth. During the conversation It has been determined that the Song Dynasty and the Kingdom of Jin will conduct business quietly, and at the same time, the woman will send an envoy surnamed Li to follow Ma Zheng and the others back to the Song Dynasty. More detailed negotiations will have to wait until the current situation changes before considering each other.

As for the matter of the yarn, Yan Zonghan definitely couldn't talk about it with Sun Xin on this occasion, but deliberately pretended to be nonchalant.

Sun Xin understood why Zong Han was able to say that he could eat all of Sun Xin's yarn—the entire Song-Jin alliance was temporarily controlled by him, so it was naturally close to the water.

When Zong Han came out, because things were discussed well, the atmosphere between the two sides was very good. Pan Jinlian, who had been waiting outside, made a gesture to her daughter in time, and Yun'er smiled and ran to say: "Uncle, I will send you to the car,"

Zong Han knew some Chinese but not to a great extent, and he spoke with a strong accent, so he said a few words directly in Jurchen, his tone seemed to be happy, accompanied by Yun'er, he boarded the carriage together, and asked people to stay behind when he left. As a gift for the envoy, Zhong even specially gave Yun'er a copy, probably because he really likes this little girl.

This time the conversation was over, and the affairs here were largely settled, and the envoy from the Jin Dynasty came to the embassy to see him the next day.Sun Xin and Ma Zheng were about to leave. Before leaving, Sun Xin called Pan Jinlian and asked, "Are you really planning to stay in the Kingdom of Jin? This place is not easy to treat."

Pan Jinlian nodded: "I've already thought about it."

"Then you join my supervisory committee, there will be some support."

Pan Jinlian smiled and shook her head: "I told Zong Han yesterday that he wanted a Han man to help him deal with the contact with Dengzhou. I accepted this job. I'm afraid it's not good to join the supervisory committee."

Sun Xin looked at her and found that her eyes were somewhat dodgy, and also knew that Pan Jinlian probably didn't want to become a superior and subordinate relationship with him, so he nodded.

"If you have anything to ask Deng Fei, he will stay here."

"Okay, let Li San'er connect with me in the future. After going through so many things, the two of us are considered acquainted."

"can."

On the day of leaving, Zong Han came to see them off in person. Pan Jinlian and Li San both stayed in Huanglong Mansion, weeping when they parted, and Deng Fei followed Sun Xin to Korea and sent them to the shore to watch them board the boat. .
