MTL - Long Wind Crossing-Chapter 60
Liu Yuru was stunned when she heard this.
Gu Jiusi saw her stunned, thinking she was thinking of the past, he stretched out his hand, took the person in his arms, hugged her from behind and said, "Yuru, don't be sad."
He said, "We will always go back."
"What's wrong with me?"
Liu Yuru returned to her senses, smiled bitterly, and said, "My mother is already here, my father... Whatever is your fate, I have nothing to worry about."
"I brought everything that I should bring, and what I can bring," Liu Yuru lowered her eyes, "the rest should have been discarded. As long as you are here, Yangzhou Wangdu East Capital , You can go anywhere, and there is no saying that you must go back."
Gu Jiusi listened, he hugged Liu Yuru and whispered: "No matter what, I have to go back."
Speaking, he involuntarily tightened his hand: "Sooner or later, I will go back and kill Wang Shanquan's thief."
Liu Yuru could hear the resentment in Gu Jiusi's tone.
She didn't speak, she just turned around, hugged the person behind her, and said with relief, "Jiusi, there will be a day sooner or later."
Gu Jiusi responded, he enjoyed the feeling that Liu Yuru took the initiative to hug him.
So he didn't say anything, squatted down and leaned in front of Liu Yuru, feeling the peace of this moment.
Liu Yuru raised her hand and combed the hair of the person in front of her, and asked, "You are now an official, and you will never do these things yourself, and you are not a businessman, you are alone It’s not suitable to go, for the caravan, have you found a good candidate?”
"I just had an idea at the beginning of the year." Gu Jiusi sighed, "I'm still thinking about the candidate, I'm preparing for Brother Zhou's marriage first, and there are still three months before the end of the year, let's slowly Think about it."
Liu Yuru replied, rather absent-minded.
, which are the main places?"
"In fact, they are mainly the capitals of the prefectures." Yunyun replied, "The people who come the most are from Qingzhou, Cangzhou, Yangzhou, and Sizhou. The goods are distributed.”
Liu Yuru nodded, in fact, their accounts will register customer information, she also had a general impression, she confirmed the news, nodded, Yunyun continued: "But it's strange, come here Among the people, Yangzhou, a state, buys more than Cangzhou and Qingzhou combined, and Sizhou also has a lot, but compared with Yangzhou, it is still not much."
"It's not surprising," Liu Yuru shook her head, "Cangzhou and Qingzhou are close to us, and the news spreads quickly, and naturally they will come. But these two prefectures are generally not rich, the more If you are not rich, the flow of news will be slower. We sell these useless things, all of which are sold for prestige. She thinks that this thing can give her dignity, so she will buy it, and if it is not, she will not. If there is no such atmosphere, Naturally, you can't buy it. So although Qingzhou and Cangzhou come, they won't be too many."
"Then Yangzhou is so far apart, how come so many people come?"
Yunyun was a little puzzled, Liu Yuru smiled: "You can see when these merchants came. Although our Youzhou is not close to Yangzhou, our Youzhou officials are not close to the East. They are close to each other, and Yangzhou always looks at the Eastern Capital when buying things. The Eastern Capital is prosperous, and Yangzhou likes it. Although Sizhou has many high officials, if you count the common people, Yangzhou is still rich. So the businessmen of Sizhou first Come to buy, and Yangzhou will follow."
Hearing this, Yunyun suddenly realized, and hurriedly said: "Madam is right, when we were in Yangzhou, the most respectable things were all things that flowed from Dongdu?"
Liu Yuru smiled and said nothing, Yunyun sighed: "I don't know when I can go back."
"Let's talk about it later."
Liu Yuru shook her head, lowered her head and turned over the ledger, thinking about it in her heart.
For a long time, those merchants have been looking to buy them and sell them in other places. Once the money comes, they will be given to them in vain. On the other hand, she is not easy to control, and there is no way to distinguish the true from the false in the market. It is easy Ruined the reputation of Huarong's painstaking management. Now the biggest customers are in Yangzhou and Sizhou, and such things are also circulated in slightly wealthier families, and then gradually penetrate down, so as long as she can set up a point in the capital of each state, she will Most customers can be retained. People from each state go directly to the state capital to buy it. First, there is a place to confirm the authenticity, so that people will not ruin her reputation everywhere. Second, it is also a way to increase revenue.
However, when she went out alone, she couldn't say anything about it.
She knew that Gu Jiusi was a good man, but she didn't know where Gu Jiusi's bottom line was.
She had a plan in her heart, so she kept observing Gu Jiusi's formation of a caravan.
The most suitable candidate for the caravan is actually Zhou Ye. But now that Zhou Ye was going to get married, and Fan Xuan had already started to use troops on the front line, he would stay for at most seven days after the wedding, so he had to rush to the front line to take charge of logistical affairs.
Without Zhou Ye, it would be too difficult to find someone Gu Jiusi trusts, who is familiar with business and Yangzhou.
It turned out that the people brought by the Gu family met these requirements, but most of those people were subordinates. Gu Jiusi always felt a little bit of the burden of purchasing 300,000 shi of grain. inappropriate.
Liu Yuru looked at Gu Jiusi annoyed, and when Zhou Ye got married, Gu Jiusi smiled.
Gu Jiusi got up early that day, and seriously beat herself up. He was a little excited, and Liu Yuru looked at it and couldn't help laughing a little: "It's not that you got married, why are you happy?"
"It's my first time to accompany someone to pick up a relative," Gu Jiusi said happily, "Shouldn't I be happy?"
Speaking, Gu Jiusi sighed: "If only Chen Xun and Wenchang were still there."
Speaking of this, Gu Jiusi seemed a little sad. Liu Yuru shook his hand gently, Gu Jiusi raised her head and smiled at her, saying happily, "I'm fine, I just miss them a little."
"I know." Liu Yuru said gently, "Let's find Chen Xun and Wenchang's mother again, and we will meet one day."
Gu Jiusi nodded, and then someone came outside and asked Gu Jiusi to go out. Gu Jiusi said happily: "I'm leaving, you go to the women's family, you wait for me."
"What nonsense," Liu Yuru chuckled, "It's not that we are married."
Gu Jiusi kissed Liu Yuru, turned and ran away.
Liu Yuru shook her fan, lowered her head and smiled, turned to look for Yinhong, and went to Zhou Mansion.
Liu Yuru and Mrs. Zhou were fairly familiar with each other. After she went, she chatted with Mrs. Zhou, and Mrs. Zhou took her to see the bride.
The bride's surname is Qin and her name is Qin Wanzhi. She used to live in Sizhou and was considered a little rich. When King Liang attacked Dongdu, their family happened to be in a war zone. When I came from Zhou, something happened in Cangzhou on the way, so I left such a girl and came to Youzhou after untold hardships.
It was also a coincidence that she came to Youzhou when Zhou Ye was waiting for Gu Jiusi every day. The girl saw Zhou Ye's portrait and watched Zhou Ye hit the horse. He just threw himself in front of the horse. Fortunately, Zhou Ye was excellent at riding. Otherwise, this girl would not be sitting here in a good position, but would have died.
" She grabbed Xiao Ye and asked if she knew Zhou Gaolang's adopted son Zhou Ye. When Xiao Ye answered, she handed the token in her hand and called her name, and she fainted. past."
Mrs. Zhou sighed with emotion: "These two people can be regarded as a marriage destined for heaven."
If Liu Yuru looked at the catkins in the south as gentle and pleasant, then Qin Wanzhi looked at the Bo Yang who was blown by the wind and sand in the north. Looking at that figure, she stood tall and straight.
Liu Yuru took a few more glances, and Mrs. Zhou said with a smile, "If you like her, there is nothing to do at the moment, so you can accompany her and say a few more words."
Liu Yuru replied, knowing that Mrs. Zhou asked her to accompany Qin Wanzhi, she got up and went into the inner room.
At this time, Qin Wanzhi had already prepared herself and was waiting for Zhou Ye to pick her up. Liu Yuru sat down, she looked at Qin Wanzhi, Qin Wanzhi looked up at her, nodded and said, "This is Mrs. Gu Shao?"
"You know me?"
Liu Yuru said with a smile, Qin Wanzhi nodded: "Mrs. Zhou mentioned it to me and praised you even more. She also said that Master Gu and Zhou Ye are good friends, so let me communicate more."
Liu Yuru couldn't help laughing when she heard this, feeling that Qin Wanzhi was really an honest person. She said softly: "Yes, Lord Zhou and my husband are good friends, and you can often walk with me in the future. I opened a shop by myself, specializing in selling rouge balm and other items. Today, you are getting married. If you are busy, I will send someone to send it directly to the house for you."
Liu Yuru said, as if a little embarrassed: "It's all in your own store, don't dislike it."
Hearing this, Qin Wanzhi smiled, she naturally knew what kind of shop Huarong was, and she knew that what Liu Yuru sent was naturally good. She seemed a little embarrassed and said, "It cost you money."
Liu Yuru shook her head, and when she had a topic, she started chatting. Qin Wanzhi seemed a little embarrassed, and said cautiously, "Young Master Zhou... what kind of person is he?"
"Didn't you see?"
Liu Yuru shook her fan, a little puzzled. Qin Wanzhi shook his head and whispered, "He was observant, and he just said a word or two."
Speaking, she said with some envy, "Unlike you, before getting married, I met Master Gu twice."
Liu Yuru was stunned for a while, she casually told Qin Wanzhi about herself and Gu Jiusi, but she never thought that there would be a day when she would be envied by others.
She remembered that she wanted to die when she heard that she was going to marry Gu Jiusi. Going around like this, she couldn't help but find it a little funny that someone envied her.
She involuntarily softened her voice and said gently: "Zhou Gongzi is an excellent person, you will soon know."
The two were talking, and there was a noisy voice outside, Xi Niang came into the house and hurriedly said: "Someone is coming, hurry up and set up, the female relatives hurry with me and block the door Come on, don't let them enter the door easily!"
Before Liu Yuru had time to respond, she was pulled by the group to grab a strong man and dragged to the gate. She was among the girls and heard Gu Jiusi's voice from outside, and said loudly: "If you have any questions, hurry up. Come out, or we'll break through!"
Liu Yuru laughed when she heard Gu Jiusi's voice, and the girls next to her started to turn the book. These girls first asked about poems, then asked the previous sentence, and Gu Jiusi answered the next sentence outside.
Ask the riddle again, the beginning of the question, but before the end, Gu Jiusi has already guessed the answer.
Liu Yuru was a little helpless seeing that none of them had a hard time staying with Gu Jiusi.
Gu Jiusi has a good memory, if you tell him to endorse this, it will be difficult to get him. Guessing and riddles are all things that Yangzhou likes to play with. Wangdu's riddles are old-fashioned in Yangzhou, and they can't trap him.
And Gu Jiusi was even more proud and said happily: "I can't do it, right? Open the door quickly, don't waste time."
At this time, Liu Yuru couldn't help laughing. She walked out of the crowd and said softly, "I'm coming."
Everyone around felt a little strange, and the colleagues who followed couldn't help but say: "Master Gu, but what's wrong?"
Shen Ming sneered and said directly, "His wife is here."
When they heard this, everyone laughed, Gu Jiusi was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly said: "She is amazing."
Liu Yuru stood at the door and said, "Lang Jun, please listen to the question."
Gu Jiusi immediately stood up and made up his mind, Liu Yuru is sensitive to numbers, this must be an arithmetic problem.
As expected, Liu Yuru said: "Today there is a carriage, and at the same time starting from the east of the city, there are three hens on each carriage, heading west, one village for ten miles, and the second for five miles. Village, then go to the third village of ten miles, then go to the fourth village of five miles, and so on. Every time you go to a village, buy poultry in the village. The first village gets three chickens, three ducks, and three geese; the second village gets three chickens, three ducks, and three geese; Three geese, five chickens, two; the third village two geese, ten chickens, and two pigeons; the fourth village two chickens, two geese, and five ducks; the fifth village five ducks There are three geese and ten chickens; the sixth village has five chickens, five ducks, and ten geese…”
Gu Jiusi listened to the question, quickly memorized how many chickens, how many ducks, and how many geese there are now, and at the end of the calculation, Liu Yuru paused, and suddenly asked: "May I ask Langjun, I have twenty chickens. Just how far did the carriage go?"
Gu Jiusi: "…"
"Why don't you ask how many chickens, ducks and geese!"
Zhou Ye was stunned for a second, then suddenly opened his mouth. The women inside laughed, and Liu Yuru shook her fan and said, "I didn't say I wanted to ask this."
Gu Jiusi stopped talking, he said to Zhou Ye, "Brother Zhou, let me go."
Zhou Ye was a little confused, he took a step back, everyone saw Gu Jiusi's calm face, and calmly said: "I have a solution."
Liu Yuru stood not far from the door, looked up at the sun, saw that there was no sound outside, and said loudly: "Can you think of it? If you can't think of it, then let's move on to the next question. ."
As soon as the words were finished, everyone saw the door being kicked open with one kick, Liu Yuru was startled on the spot, and before she could react, she was stopped by the waist and held on her shoulders by the person who rushed in. Without further ado, run towards it!
"Brother Zhou, hurry up!"
Gu Jiusi shouted, greeted people and rushed in.
Liu Yuru was furious, dragged Gu Jiusi and said, "Gu Jiusi!"
Gu Jiusi turned his head and looked at Liu Yuru's angry face, he thought this person was very cute, he put her in the corner, glanced at the side, there was a lot of chaos around, Zhou Ye Following Gu Jiusi's appearance, he went in and grabbed people.
"Gu Jiusi you..."
Before Liu Yuru finished speaking, Gu Jiusi raised his sleeves, hung down his sleeves to cover the two of them, lowered his head and pressed the person against the wall to kiss him.
"Don't mess around."
After Gu Jiusi said this, he saw Zhou Ye carrying someone out of the room and said loudly, "Jusi, go!"
Gu Jiusi responded and ordered Liu Yuru: "Wait for me to go home."
Then followed.
This bastard…
Liu Yuru gritted her teeth, blushing and beating, she didn't dare to meet anyone at this time.
Yin Hong searched for a long time, and finally found Liu Yuru, she was a little puzzled: "Madam, what are you doing standing here with a fan covering your face?"
Liu Yuru closed her eyes and didn't speak. After a long time, she slowly put down the fan and said with a long sigh of relief: "Be still and concentrate."
Speaking, she led Yinhong out: "Let's go to the banquet."
Yin Hong followed behind her, a little confused, no matter how she looked at Liu Yuru's appearance, it was not a calm and attentive look.
But as a maid, she couldn't say anything, she could only follow Liu Yuru to the banquet.
Liu Yuru first went to watch the ceremonies, but Gu Jiusi was not busy at this time, he stood beside her. The entire hall was quiet, only the ceremonial officer was singing and drinking. Liu Yuru quietly pinched him in private. As a result, Gu Jiusi looked at Zhou Ye worshipping the hall, but he held her hand with a backhand and whispered, "Be good."
This sound came out, Liu Yuru blushed and became quiet. She herself didn't know what it was for.
She and Gu Jiusi watched the ceremony together, and Gu Jiusi was dragged over. He and Zhou Ye had negotiated that today he had to stop drinking for Zhou Ye.
So Liu Yuru ate dinner with his wife, and watched Gu Jiusi get drunk and noisy. She was a little unhappy, but just when she was unhappy, Yin Hong brought up a plate of honeydew melons and whispered to her: "Madam, just now, my uncle told me to bring you a plate of honeydew melons, lest you think he doesn't want to be angry with you. ."
Liu Yuru laughed when she heard this.
For a moment, she was not angry anymore, she twisted the honeydew melon, and she felt sweet when she ate it.
After the banquet, Liu Yuru watched the excitement, and the servant finally brought Gu Jiusi.
He was so drunk that he was helped over, Liu Yuru could not help feeling a little helpless when she saw it, she helped Gu Jiusi onto the carriage, and said softly, "Just drink it, what do you drink so much? ?"
"I'm happy."
Gu Jiusi opened his mouth in confusion, he looked up to see Liu Yuru, and saw Liu Yuru lowered his head and wiped his hands with a handkerchief, he suddenly laughed.
He reached out and hugged her, rubbed her shoulder, and said happily, "Yuru."
"Huh?" Liu Yuru casually knew that he was drunk, and then listened to him: "We are married, I am so happy."
