Chapter 260: Stand Up Again
Because she didn't want her hair to get wet at night, Dong Xiaowan tied her hair up and fixed the bun with a jade hairpin.

Jia Wei looked at the fair skin on the back of Dong Xiaowan's neck.

,,,

Jia Wei stepped out of the bathtub with a splash.

Jia Wei took a long time to bathe, and the water was all over the floor.

He often washes the floor with water.

,,,,,

Dong Xiaowan took a handkerchief and wiped the water stains off Jia Wei, her movements were gentle and careful.

Her old father was critically ill and she was the one taking care of him at his bedside. She was quite adept at doing these things.

Jia Wei looked down because Dong Xiaowan raised her hand.

,,,,,

Dong Xiaowan stood up in a hurry.

Took out a square, white handkerchief.

Jia Wei just had a dull expression.

Jia Wei had been disturbed by Wei Zheng's assassination attempt before. Someone actually dared to assassinate him, and the method of using a large number of thunder bombs might work. This made Jia Wei accumulate anger and disturbed his interest.

You still have to be more cautious in the future and be more steady when you navigate the world.

Although he is a martial arts master, he is still a mortal. If a huge explosion like the one in Wanggongchang happens, he will probably die.

,,,,,,
A cool breeze blew in through the open windows.

It blew on Jia Wei's body, feeling cool and pleasant.

Jia Wei hugged her,
He stared at her flawless, fragrant, colorful, and natural beauty for a long time.

Late at night, it started raining outside, moistening everything silently.

The next morning.

When Jia Wei woke up, the sun was already high in the sky.

Dong Xiaowan obediently helped him to dress and wash, and then had breakfast, with an attentive and somewhat ingratiating attitude.

The night ends, as if waking up from a dream.

Although Jia Wei said last night that he would take her back to Shenjing.

But, what if he denies it after waking up, who would dare to say anything?
Dong Xiaowan was a very smart person because she could become one of the "Eight Beauties of Qinhuai". But now her mind is somewhat clouded and she seems to be worried about gains and losses.

Uncle Jia Wei was used to it, so he took it for granted to enjoy it and didn't think too much about the details.

Dong Xiaowan felt even more uneasy when she saw this...

Near noon, the Jinyiwei who stayed in the courtyard reported that Wang Qianyuan wanted to see him.

Jia Wei went to the front room to meet him.

Then Wang Qianyuan came slowly towards him with his head lowered and a respectful attitude.

After Wei Zheng died last night, he took control of the Salt Gang. Now he was in high spirits and had a rosy complexion, but he was very respectful in front of Jia Wei.

"Greetings to the Marquis!"

"Ah."

He took a brocade box from the servant and presented it respectfully.

"Last night, there was internal commotion in the Salt Gang, disturbing the Marquis!"

"We deserve death, but we have only one token of our gratitude, and I hope you will accept it."

Jia Wei nodded casually.

A Jinyiwei took it and handed it to Jia Wei.

He opened it and saw Dong Xiaowan's indenture on it, and underneath the indenture was a thick stack of silver bills.

Jia Wei pinched the thickness and came up with a roughly correct number.

It's still the same number as before.

The last time he came to Jiangnan, the eight major salt merchants gave him 300,000 taels of silver. After the Jiang family was raided, the seven major salt merchants were afraid and gave him another 300,000 taels of silver.

Now the salt gang also gave this amount, plus some scattered income, it was close to one million taels of silver. The emperor took the risk of turmoil and went to great lengths to rectify the salt business.

But this is a long-term benefit, and we still haven’t earned a single cent.

But Jia Wei was the first to make a fortune.

If Xuanwu knew about this, he would definitely be furious and shout, "My money!"

Jia Wei sent Wang Qianyuan away, had lunch, and said to Dong Xiaowan who was absent-mindedly standing aside.

"Go pack your things."

Suddenly, Dong Xiaowan's pretty face showed a bright look...

Jia Wei took Dong Xiaowan back to the Jinyiwei official ship, and then had an intimate interaction with his harem.

Although there was some commotion on Salt Island last night, the girls were very confident in Jia Wei's martial arts and just thought that Jia Wei was punishing the Salt Gang.

Only Zhao Min had some guesses, but seeing that Jia Wei was safe and sound, she did not ask any more questions.

In the afternoon, Jia Wei took Xiao Longnu on a boat trip to visit the islands of Taihu Lake.

Wang Qianyuan led the Salt Gang disciples to guard the periphery all the way, maintaining security and acting as tour guides.

Although the Salt Gang had just been in chaos and he was needed to handle many matters, Wang Qianyuan still knew the importance of the matter.

Now that Wei Zheng has gotten into big trouble, the Salt Gang’s top priority is to make sure Jia Wei is well.

Last night, when Jia Wei was fighting Xiaowan, Wang Qianyuan was also working all night to deal with the internal strife in the Salt Gang.

Things have settled down this morning. Although there are some trivial matters to deal with, he has no shortage of talented people to handle the affairs.

On the boat, Jia Wei hugged Xiaolongnu's soft waist and kissed her on the face several times.

"Long'er, I made a lot of money today. When I get back to Yangzhou, I'll find the best tailor in Jiangnan to make you new clothes, ten sets for each of the four seasons!"

Xiao Long Nu grew up in the Tomb of the Living Dead. Although she had traveled thousands of miles with Jia Wei in the past two months, she had always been by his side and didn't even know what money was. So she didn't have much reaction to this.

"Why cut so many clothes? I can't wear them all."

Xiaolongnu's voice was ethereal and pleasant, and Jia Wei felt it was a pleasure just to listen to her voice.

"I wish I had two sets of plain white clothes. I'm not comfortable wearing anything else, like the one I'm wearing today."

Under Jia Wei's dressing, Xiaolongnu wore a red dress today and put on hairpins and jewelry.

Xiaolongnu's face was covered with a veil, revealing only her gentle eyes and eyebrows. Her eyes were bright and lovable.

Jia Wei was used to seeing her wearing white robes, and this was very visually impactful.

Just like unlocking a new skin for his girlfriend, Jia Wei immediately maximized the sense of freshness.

"You are mine now, and you must obey me." Jia Wei scratched her nose.

Xiaolongnu pouted to show her dissatisfaction.

Jia Wei brought Xiao Longnu with him today because he wanted to "accidentally meet" Wang Yuyan and compare their appearances to see if there were any similarities.

If Jia Wei became interested after seeing Wang Yuyan, he could also take Xiao Longnu with him to temporarily solve the urgent problem.

"My Lord, the Xuanmu Mountain in Guangfu Town is just ahead. Do you want to go ashore and take a look?"

Wang Qianyuan was sitting in another small boat and did not come closer, but just shouted from a distance.

They are with their concubines, being affectionate and sightseeing. Wouldn't it be a nuisance if you get too close to them?

Wang Qianyuan is still very perceptive.

"Xuanmu Mountain?"

Jia Wei thought of Yanziwu Chanhe Manor.

Of course he had no interest in Murong Fu, he just thought of Azhu and Abi.

Although his current maid lineup includes Xiangling, Qingwen, Ping'er, and Yuanyang, it seems that there is still room for improvement.

"Yanziwu is right here? Murong family's territory?"

"Yes!" Wang Qianyuan replied.

"Let's go to the shore and take a look at Yanziwu."

Wang Qianyuan agreed immediately. He thought about the journey and time, and was afraid that by the time he continued to travel for a while, it would be dark, and he would have to stay at Murong's Chanhe Manor.
