Jiapingguan Chronicle

Chapter 832 On the Thief Ship 1.0

Young Master Chi's wish since he was a child was to get rich and be safe. Although he came from a noble family, he felt his conscience and said that he didn't have much interest in studying, scientific examinations, and becoming an official. However, he also knew that his father would not agree, so he could only take one step at a time, find a suitable opportunity, and live the life he really wanted.

But Chi Hong's arrival completely disrupted the original plan of Chi Ergongzi. He never thought that the little uncle who had been missing for many years and had no news of him could be found again.

It's not that he didn't suspect that this child was not the little uncle in his impression. He couldn't find any trace of the little uncle on this child, and after recovering from a serious illness, the child claimed that he didn't remember what happened before. It's what made him suspicious.However, thinking of what happened to this child, he felt relieved again. It was the same sentence. Others did not understand his father, but he understood it very well. The person who was picked up and raised.

Therefore, his doubts are just suspicions, and he still treats Chi Hong as his own family and watches him grow up bit by bit.

It is also because of the tragic experience of Chi Hong when he was young, the second son of Chi loved him very much, as long as it was a reasonable request, he would respond to it, although it was not to the extent that he wanted the stars and never gave the moon, but it was similar.

When Chi Hong grew up and finished taking the scientific examination, the family members discussed it. This child’s life experience is a bit special. It’s better not to become an official in the court, so as to save unnecessary troubles in the future, but his wish was fulfilled. , Let him go out to travel in the mountains and rivers, and live his life as he pleases.

Young Master Chi is very supportive of this decision, but he did not expect that this is the beginning of the nightmare. Maybe if Chi Hong doesn't run out to play, this nightmare will come later than expected.

The Second Young Master Chi remembered very clearly that his father's first thought of starting a business was when Chi Hong returned from traveling for the first time.

Chi Hong's first stop was Jiangnan, the hometown of the Chi family. Before leaving, his father wrote several letters asking his relatives, friends and old friends who still live in Jiangnan to help him take care of him.According to his father, these relatives, friends, and old friends live very well in the local area, and he is still very relieved to entrust Chi Hong to them.

But the second son of Chi never expected that these relatives, friends and old friends of his father were all doing business. Chi Hong was led by them to gain a lot of knowledge during the few months in the south of the Yangtze River. do business.

The Second Young Master Chi originally thought that his father would resolutely oppose it and would never agree, but he didn't expect that his father would agree without a word, and even put forward his own suggestion that Chi Hong should not come forward , but put this work in their own hands.

"Brother, to be honest, I am indeed very interested in doing business. When my father found me and said that the burden of the family was handed over to me, I still had a sense of excitement that my wish had come true." Second Young Master Chi Sighing, he looked at Chi Rui who was sitting in front of him, and smiled wryly, "But I didn't expect that I would get on the thief ship step by step."

"It's not your fault. You have such a wish. It's very easy to get hooked." Chi Rui reached out and touched his younger brother's head. In other words, my father also used him to establish a relationship with the Fuji family in Yancheng. If the Fuji family wants to arrange manpower in Xijing, they can't do it alone, they must have internal support, and father and Chi Hong are the internal support they are looking for."

"The Fuji family?" Chi Ergongzi looked at Chi Rui blankly, "What's the background?"

Chi Rui briefly explained the relationship here, and after finishing speaking, he sighed heavily.

"Do you understand why they want to do business and why they want so much money?" Chi Rui continued to ask when he saw Chi Ergong's nod, "Father took the initiative to help you clear the house. Since we were young, what he told us the most was, let us study hard, otherwise, we will be reduced to the level of the Qing family. He has never looked down on the Qing family, although King Wu and Qing University The young masters are inseparable, and the two are so nice that they can wear a robe, but my father still sneered at the Qing family. But in order for you to start the business, he actually went to find the young master Qing, which surprised me. Moreover, he also I didn't go to find it personally, but entrusted the relationship of Daiwangfu."

"For Chi Hong, you can put down your old face and go to beg the acting prince and the Eagle prince, father is really..." The second young master Chi shook his head lightly, "Actually, he helped me connect with Mr. Qing's line. I'm still very happy. Mr. Qing is a good hand in business. It's very lucky to learn from him. But I didn't expect that they didn't give me this opportunity. It's the first time to sell with Mr. Qing. It was the time when the eldest brother knew about it, and I came back and said that it felt pretty good."

"I remember, you took quite a lot of business later, didn't you?"

"It's true on the surface, but what I've heard is different." Young Master Chi closed his eyes slightly, "That time, all the goods I bought were of the same quality as Mr. Qing's. , it can be guaranteed to be very good. But after it was shipped to Yiqing Mansion, it looked the same on the surface, almost the same, but the owners of several shops wrote back in two months and said that the material was not very good and it was not worth it That price."

"What about the other shops?"

"The reaction is not bad." Young Master Chi nodded, "I understand now, from the very beginning, they planned to shoddy the second, but it was done step by step, starting from a very few Expanding, it's no wonder that there are rumors in the market that I do business by unscrupulous means."

"It's more than that, isn't it?" Chi Rui looked at the guards at the door, asked them to pour a cup of warm water, and gave Chi Ergongzi two sips, "At the beginning, you parted ways with Qing Yuanhui because he found out Are you in the salt and iron business?"

"Yes, I don't know when he found out. The second time he followed the Qing family's convoy to the Kingdom of Jin, he told me that he can't take me with him in the future, and he should take care of himself, don't be bold, dare to touch any business. "

"He's right. You are indeed very courageous. Getting caught selling salt and iron is a felony, and it will implicate the whole family. You have been familiar with the law since you were a child, so you don't know this?"

"I know." Young Master Chi nodded, "But brother, it's not my idea to do this business."

"Is it Chi Hong?"

"No, he doesn't have the means to touch such a business yet." Young Master Chi waved his hand lightly, "It was my father, he proposed it, and he also provided information about buyers and sellers, I..." He smiled wryly After a while, "It's just for them to deliver the goods."
