romantic flower

() Yutou Zhang suddenly showed a smile, as if his rough, stone-like face was as bright as a chrysanthemum blooming...

In short, Song Yi didn't feel very comfortable when he saw him laughing, so Yutou smiled, but Song Yi frowned even deeper.

"I won't embarrass you, I will teach you a lesson and then throw it out." Yutou Zhang said with a smile, but before Song Yi could refute or prepare to move, he changed his serious expression and continued Said, "But before that, I suddenly had an idea, an idea that both you and I think are good..."

Just like all the willows and flowers will see the drama of Youyi Village, Song Yi's original intention to fight hard and then escape suddenly relaxes, and then asks seriously, "What's the idea?"

Yutou Zhang raised his head towards the door and shouted coldly, "Close the door!" Then, the two doors were suddenly closed, and the room became dark, but the scene in front of him could still be seen clearly.

Song Yi saw Yutou Zhang get off the big chair, then walked to his side, and sat down with his thick arms, and Yutou Zhang himself sat on the chair next to Song Yi.After doing all this, Yutou Zhang and Song Yi looked at each other, Song Yi's expression was calm but tense, while Yutou Zhang looked at Song Yi with more scrutiny and playfulness.

He is not a simple quack!Song Yi thought so in his heart.

"Outsiders may not know that the Salt Gang is also divided into horizontal and vertical branches. The horizontal branch is responsible for water transportation; while the vertical branch is responsible for the relationship on the ground! Most of the horizontal branches are from coolies, and not many people rely on their brains for food; But Zhizhi mostly relies on his brains to make a living, and is responsible for dealing with officials in the government and mobilizing resources..." Yutou Zhang stared at Song Yi and said slowly, looking a little weird in this bleak atmosphere.

Song Yi didn't understand why he said these things about the Salt Gang, but he knew it was time for him to ask, so he asked, "What does this have to do with me?"

"It's true that it has nothing to do with you, but it has something to do with me!" Yutou Zhang said seriously, "I'm Hengzhi, so I can also be called a mud-legged person... I've been a mud-legged person for decades. , and I don’t really care about this status. But there is one thing that makes me feel unsatisfied recently... Yangzhou’s water transport business has dropped a lot, and if this trend continues, even if I want to retire early, it’s unlikely, very likely Maybe I will be suspected of embezzling business and then thrown to feed the fish... Although my surname is fish, I really don’t know how to swim, so when I get into the water, I know the fish, but the fish don’t know me, and I will definitely die. …”

"You mean, someone is robbing you of business?" Song Yi asked suspiciously.

"Smart!" Yutou raised his thick eyebrows and praised slightly. Because of the short distance, Song Yi discovered that there was a vertical scar between his two eyebrows, but because his eyebrows were too thick, people ignored him. The faded scar between.

"But what does this have to do with me?" Song Yi asked in surprise.

"Of course it has something to do with you. If you don't want me to be thrown into the water like a fish, then before that, there is one thing we can cooperate with!" Yutou said with a strange expression on his face. smile.

Song Yi's eyes suddenly brightened, and he exclaimed, "You mean...you want a new boat?"

"Smart!" Yutou Zhang smiled brighter this time, like a blooming chrysanthemum... He said with a smile, "I know you are the number one thorn in the eyes of the Salt Gang, but if you are willing to send the new boat If you lend me a few ships, I may be able to help you do something that you can't do in Jiangnan, of course...provided that this is only a confidential agreement between us, what do you think?"

Not so!Song Yi scoffed angrily in his heart, but he had to show a thoughtful expression on his face, and then said dumbfoundedly, "The new ship was requisitioned by the imperial court. If it is given to you, let the imperial court know about it. You and I both There is no good fruit to eat..."

"That's all it is, but you have to know that the boat is in my hands, and the boat is in the water, who would dare to check the boat of the Salt Gang. Or in other words, even if you don't sell the new boat in a short time Give it to me, it will take a while until there are more new ships in the imperial court, and the Yan Gang will always find a way to get blueprints to build new ships, then... where are you?" Yutou Zhang A pair of shrewd pupils gleamed shrewdly on the rough face.

Song Yi had to admit that he was a little moved, but when he thought that doing such a thing was doing something bad behind the back of the court, he still couldn't feel relieved, and hesitated for a while.

"Think about it, I can give you some time. After all, it's too late this year, and there will be more things to do on my side. I advise you to hurry up and think clearly, so that you You and I are good... Time is precious to everyone..." Yutou Zhang said seriously.

"That's good...I'll go back and think about it first." Although Song Yi felt that this matter was unreliable, when he thought that he finally had a buffer opportunity to leave safely, he stood up and said he was going to leave.

"Okay, but remember, rules are rules after all... I know your house in Jizi Lane. If you don't come to me, I will come to you if I want to know the answer!" There was a flash of light in Yutou Zhang's eyes, and he said in a meaningful way.

Song Yi's heart shrank slightly, his eyes almost jumped with murderous intent, and finally he had to suppress his displeasure, and said calmly, "Of course, Song Yi will definitely come to visit again!"

Song Yi bit the word "come again" very hard, which made Yutou Zhang frown slightly, but at this time Song Yi had turned around, and he could no longer see the expression on Song Yi's face.

"Open the door..."

Following Yutou Zhang's rough shout, two doors opened, and the person who led the way was still waiting outside the door with a slightly bent body.

"Send Mr. Song out of the house..." Yutou Zhang said calmly.

"Yes." There was a slight look of surprise in the eyes of the servant who led the way, and then he continued to bend down to lead Song Yi.

Going around the courtyard gate, he was really blocked by the woman with the wheat skin.

"You go down..." The woman said coldly, locking Song Yi's eyes with murderous eyes.

The servant who led the way straightened up at this time, and then said with a somewhat embarrassed wry smile, "Miss... I'm afraid I can't do it today, the master asked me to send this gentleman out of the house!"

Song Yi clearly saw the astonishment in the woman's eyes, and then asked strangely, "Damn... Didn't you say that you would hand him over to me later? If you let him go, wouldn't it be a waste of money for him to treat you?" Am I being rude?"

"This...this...that's what the master said, I can only do it!" Song Yi saw that the man standing in front of him was sweating from the ears in this winter, looking He turned out to be so afraid of the woman in front of him that he was sweating.Song Yi couldn't help but think how tough a woman must be to scare a skilled servant like this.

"That's good... take him away!" The woman said unwillingly, scanning Song Yi's gentle face with her sharp eyes.

The person who led the way for Song Yi then protected Song Yi again and went to another courtyard gate!

"Wait!" Suddenly hearing the woman's voice from behind, Song Yi subconsciously took two steps forward quickly, and only turned his head to look suspiciously when he was in front of the guide.

"Since you are father's guest, how dare you tell me where your family lives?" The woman stared at Song Yi with a sneer in her eyes and asked.

Song Yi was silent for a moment, thinking that he had Fuyao in his house, so naturally he didn't need to be afraid of this woman, and he couldn't weaken the man's demeanor, so he immediately puffed up his chest and held his fists like a pure man and said, "Song Yi, who lives here If you come to the small courtyard of the Song Mansion in Jizi Lane, if the young lady comes to visit, you will naturally find her!"

"Okay, you go..." The woman got the reply, a sly look flashed in her eyes.

Leaving from Yufu, Song Yi felt as if he had gone to a prison cell, and his back was slightly chilled.Seeing that the sky was getting late and there was a cool feeling in the air, Song Yi immediately raised his feet and walked quickly towards the direction of Jizi Lane.

To be honest, it is a bit far from Yufu to Jizi Lane.But because Song Yi himself has been insisting on exercising boxing kung fu and throwing knives, the time for exercising every day is essential, so he naturally regards this distance as a good opportunity for running.

Shuttle through the crowd, running in a posture that others find surprised, and occasionally someone will look suspiciously at whether Song Yi is a gangster.But Song Yi didn't need to care about other people's eyes, on the contrary, he was running while enjoying the feeling of not caring about others.Moreover, he can also indulge in admiring the scene when the crowds of people who come down to the street market recede home because of the night, and he can even smell the aroma of food constantly wafting into his nostrils and imagine that there are rich meals and beautiful ladies waiting at home. own...

Thinking of these, Song Yi felt unprecedentedly sufficient and happy.

Jogging leisurely one step at a time, also attracted the blushing peeping of the strange girl, and even attracted the pursuit of countless wild dogs, Song Yi finally arrived at the door of the house.But just when he could see the door of the house, Song Yi found that there seemed to be a car and horses parked at the door of the house, and it seemed that Xu Chang had come to the door.

Just when Song Yi was thinking this way, and he had already seen it clearly.It just so happened that the door of the mansion opened, Xu Chang turned her head and said something with a smile, while walking outside the mansion, Qing Yan, who was seeing off the guests, suddenly saw Song Yi outside the door, and then her face with a polite smile suddenly Eyebrows smile.

Xu Chang noticed Qingyan's expression, and then turned her head to see Song Yi who was covered in sweat, and suddenly stood there in a little embarrassment, with one foot inside the door and the other outside the door. advance and retreat...
