    Although the two parties intend to contact each other now, whether it is Silence or Jinshang Group, they are undoubtedly extremely cautious.

    As far as the Shanxi Merchants Group is concerned, although they are wealthy, their conservative personality and satisfaction with the status quo make them unwilling to take the risk of offending the Fujian and Zhejiang maritime merchants and rushing to speculate in an industry that has not yet revealed its embryonic form, and its future is uncertain.  trade projects.

    As for Silence, to be honest, he doesn't really have a good impression of Shanxi merchants, because he took a train once in his previous life and read books on this topic in his spare time. It is about the family history of this group of people-it is said that  Helping people, in order to get huge profits, disregarding the country's ban, wantonly smuggled food, salt and iron to Houjin, turning the imperial court's blockade order into a dead letter, so that the Jurchens can survive the most difficult years.  In the later stage, it got even worse!  All the gunpowder, 80% of the food, and more than 60% of the metals of the Jurchens are provided by these things that are mercenary and forget their ancestors.

    What's even more abominable is that they also sold all kinds of information to the Jurchen - you know, they basically monopolized the military supplies of the Ming army, and their understanding of the Ming army's situation was even more thorough than the leading generals.  Winning over civil and military officials from the central and local governments, and knowing the imperial government's decrees, and the East Wing of the army well, such a group of people scrambling inside and out, the Ming Dynasty was indeed defeated unjustly!

    However, it is now the thirty-sixth year of Jiajing, and Nurhachi's father is not yet married. Of course, such crimes cannot be imposed on Shanxi merchants.

    If he had his way, he would even be willing to have a drink with Wang Zhi, and he would not have anything to do with these people.

    But in fact, since he is determined to change something, he must bury his personal likes and dislikes in his heart forever, and unite all the forces that can be united¡ªeven if he commits all kinds of evil and is full of evil, he will definitely go to the nineteenth floor of hell after death, and he will never be able to recover.  Xu Hai, if he can be used by me, he will also give him support and let him become China's Drake By the way, the British sea monster Captain Drake is not yet twenty years old, if possible, silence  Hope he's called the Xu Hai Demon King ofBritain.  Although this hope is relatively slim, he still hopes to give it a try.

    There is no good or evil, only right and wrong.  This is the code of conduct that Silence has set for his life.

    Therefore, it is impossible for him to let go of the hope of dragging Shanxi merchants into the water, but out of distrust of these people, he reminded himself that he must be cautious, not to be sold and return some money to others.

    That night, he stayed in the magistrate's yamen. Early the next morning, when he was having breakfast with Wang Chonggu, an aide came in hurriedly, leaned into Wang Chonggu's ear, and whispered a few words.

    Wang Chonggu nodded when he heard the words, whispered a few words to the staff, and asked him to retreat.  After pondering for a long while, he said slowly: "People from the Lu family have arrived in Songjiang."

    Silent, who was drinking porridge, obviously paused for a while, but then regained his composure, and asked, "When did you arrive?"

    "Last night." Wang Chonggu said, "I stayed at the Huating Station."

    "It seems that there is indeed a master." Silence smiled and said: "As soon as I moved, the other party guessed my intention." Last night, he had already explained the ins and outs of the matter to Wang Chonggu in a fairly detailed manner.

    "Well, that's really the case." Wang Chonggu nodded, not without worry: "It seems that they are going to sabotage you."

    "If I let them succeed, I will be finished." Shen Mo chuckled, put down his job and said, "There is something that Mr. Zhenchuan must help."

    "What's the matter?" Wang Chonggu asked noncommittally.

    "Help me take care of the Caobang Wharf," Shen Shen said in a deep voice, "The 200,000 shi of grain there is my confidence. If there is any mistake, I will have to be mermaid."

    This kind of thing is just a matter of little effort, and helping others is helping oneself, Wang Chonggu finally nodded and said: "Well, just don't worry, I will send someone there, and I will personally sit in the town when necessary." In the final analysis, he is still not afraid of those people  of.

    "Great!" Shen Mo said happily: "Thank you, Mr. Jianchuan!"

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Now that the enemy is coming, of course he must hurry up. After breakfast, he left the magistrate's yamen, boarded the carriage waiting at the door, and headed straight to the "Xu Family's Great Wall Gate" in the south of the city.

    I heard people say that the locals call the residences of senior officials and wealthy gentry "big wall gates", and the residences of medium and small landlords are called "wall gates".  Although the levels of the two are clear, it is not impossible to make a transition. For example, the son of a landlord's family won a Jinshi and became a high-ranking official through hard work.?? Instructed his grandson to help him up.

    The old lady asked long and short questions for a while, and answered patiently one by one in silence. He spoke very well, which made the old man listen very carefully, and his attitude towards him became more and more affectionate.  After talking, he finally talked about his purpose of coming to Songjiang: "You are a parent official in Suzhou. If you have nothing to do, you won't come to our Songjiang. You don't come here to see me, an old woman, right?" The words were extremely pompous,  It's really not like an ordinary old lady.

    "It is indeed a special visit." Shen Mo said with a frank smile: "At the same time, there is one thing that I need to discuss with the old lady."

    "What's the matter?" The old woman asked with a smile, "Just tell me."

    "The price of grain in Suzhou has risen ridiculously recently," Shen Mo said; "In order to stabilize the price of grain, Wansheng has been raising food everywhere, and now he has raised half, half I heard that the teacher's house has some grain for sale, and Wansheng is willing to buy it."

    "That is indeed the case." Mrs. Xu nodded.  The Xu family has a full stockpile, enough food for several years, and this year's once-in-a-lifetime high price market, naturally they have to cash in some in exchange for a high return: "It's not about who you sell to, but naturally you have to sell to someone close to you.  "

    "That's great." Shen Mo cupped his hands and said with a smile: "I've heard that the old lady is extremely kind, and that ten thousand families have Buddhas. Your actions will definitely be sung by the people of Suzhou for a hundred years!"

    "Hehehe" The old lady said shyly, "If you say that, I'm too embarrassed to ask for money." She glanced at him and said lightly, "I want land."¡ª¡ª
