Ji Tang

Chapter 214

"Oh, right!"

Daniel slapped his forehead and said with some annoyance: "I almost forgot, this is the letter from Lord Marquis to you, please read it first, I'm going to bed, don't worry about dinner!"

"Go, go, just sleep to death, you idiot!" Xie Lian laughed and scolded.

Then he looked at the letter in his hand. He didn't open it immediately. He sent the people at home away first and then read it later.

The conversation that followed was very relaxed. Since Song Geer already knew these people and invited them to Chang'an for the wedding, the charm here was extraordinary.

Without the emperor's approval, Song Geer's caution would not have allowed him to be so rash.

"father!"

"Ouch, why are you scaring your father and me to death?" You Ning said angrily when he saw the sudden appearance.

He had just sent them away and was thinking about something, but unexpectedly he was startled by his own daughter.

You Ning stuck out his cute little tongue and said, "I just heard that Brother Daniu came to find you?"

Originally, she wanted to ask Brother Danniu something, but she didn't expect to hear loud snoring in the room as soon as she found him. She knew that he was tired. After all, it was thousands of miles away. She thought about how he was when she came to Mingzhou. I don’t have the nerve to bother you!

I heard that he went to find his father, so I was curious about what he said to his father.Thinking of the words in the letter, her face turned slightly red.

"Humph!"

When I saw my daughter's appearance, I didn't know that she must have known about getting married next year, but she was still pretending to herself here, and I felt very angry.

"What? Are you in such a hurry to get married?" he asked, looking askance at his daughter.

"father"

Now she couldn't keep calm anymore. She glared at her father and ran out with a blushing face.

Seeing the girl's appearance, Xie Lian felt sad. The little cotton-padded jacket he had finally raised would become someone else's in the blink of an eye. Thinking of this, he felt uncomfortable.

Madam Zhang came up to her at some point and saw the expression on Xie Lian's face. They looked like an old couple. How could she not know what he was thinking?
He joked: "You can't bear to part with her now? I wonder who wanted to marry her off early?"

"Who said I feel distressed? I keep making trouble at home every day, and I have long wanted to get married. Since that boy likes me, then go ahead and toss him. Anyway, that boy is good-looking."

Xie Lian's retort continued without any hesitation.

After saying that, he ignored Zhang and went directly to the study.

"Bah, just be so stubborn!" Zhang said disdainfully.

When he came to the study, he took out Ji Song's letter and read it.

The letter didn't say much, it just told him that he was useful to the Jiangnan family and that he needed to rely on their strength for some things, and asked him not to be too harsh on some things.

After reading the letter, Xie Lian thought for a moment but still didn't expect what Brother Song wanted from these aristocratic families?
You must know that if you want to take advantage of others, others will also want to take advantage of you.

These people are not fuel-efficient lamps. They are all old and lonely people who can't see the rabbit but don't let the eagle fly. How can they be so easily taken advantage of by you?
But he understood his shortcomings. He was not good at these things, and there was nothing he could do to help Song Geer, so he simply didn't think about it.

With that kid's caution, it was impossible not to know the consequences of doing so, but he still did it, presumably because he was fully prepared!
Daniel was not idle after waking up. Instead, he went to major coastal cities and spent money to hire skilled shipbuilders. He didn't know what he was going to do.
After learning about the behavior of the good guard, the noble families also began to take action, and some even sent their own shipbuilders over, which was regarded as a good relationship.A great man will accept all comers, and as long as he knows about people with shipbuilding talents, he will try his best to get them.

Recently, a medium-sized shipbuilding workshop was acquired, and wood for shipbuilding was purchased everywhere.

Time passed slowly like this. When a team of hundreds of people appeared in Mingzhou, everyone realized that this good man was really coming!

The leader of the team this time was Ji Ming, who was originally the chief shopkeeper of the Ji family. In addition to some carpenters, he was also accompanied by Ji Qing, Liu Xiancheng, Wang Xuance and other outstanding figures from the Ji family school.

There are also stewards from the Cheng family, Xue family, Changsun family, Li Jing family, and Chai family, but they are all headed by Ji Ming.

After Ji Ming arrived, Daniu handed over all the affairs to him, and he took several generals to Yangzhou and other places to continue looking for the master shipbuilder.

Everyone who was originally unimpressed by such a big move was first stunned by Daniel's generosity.

But the arrival of Ji Ming made everyone know what it means to be wealthy.

Everyone has heard that Marquis Hao was the leading rich man in the Tang Dynasty, and he had the ability to turn stone into gold in Chang'an.

But seeing a huge amount of money flow out of the hands of Ji Ming, the big shopkeeper of the Ji family, they still felt dizzy, which allowed them to truly see the power of this good prince.

What kind of ability is it to unite people from the Changsun family, Cheng family, Xue family, Li Jing family, and Chai family?
Anyway, they were completely numb, and those who originally thought about taking advantage of Ji Song's hands were completely turned off.

It's not that they look down on themselves, but look at who these people are?

Changsun Wuji is the brother of the current empress, one of the emperor's cronies, with endless power; Cheng Zhijie is the Youwuwei General of the Tang Dynasty and the Duke of the country; Xue Wanche is also a county duke; everyone is familiar with Li Jing, then But the one who beat the rebels in the south of the Yangtze River to the point of crying for father and mother; the Chai family is even more remarkable, the consort of the eldest princess of Pingyang.

None of these people are easy to mess with. If you think about the good man Hou Jisong who can unite these people, you will know that he is a character who is not easy to mess with. You and others should not dance too much. good.

As the local magistrate, Xie Lian certainly knew about Ji Ming's big hand.To be honest, he was really frightened by Ji Ming's generosity.

Seeing a large number of shipbuilding masters and a large amount of wood entering the warehouse that had been prepared, even a fool knew that Ji Song was about to make a big move.

But since the long talk with Ji Ming that night, Xie Lian completely ignored it and started to go around to help.

The Jiangnan family was also panicked when they saw this team. They thought that the top nobles of the Tang Dynasty had united to come to Jiangnan to deal with themselves and others!

But I felt relieved when I saw that they had not taken any action except for shipbuilding.

After knowing that it was not directed at themselves and others, they didn't care. There were not many other things in Jiangnan and there were many shipbuilding craftsmen.

So, one of us, one of us, gave away all our master craftsmen.

If their thoughts were known to those in Chang'an, they would definitely sneer at them.

To deal with you?Are you worthy?The Jiangnan family, whose bones have been broken countless times, is still worthy of their action?

If the north was not peaceful at this time and the south of the Yangtze River was too far away to take care of them, they would have been dealt with countless times.

Think about those people in Chang'an. If the Jiangnan family doesn't have a leader yet, they will be devoured sooner or later.
