At this time, according to the solar terms, it is already Xiaohan, so the night comes very quickly.

However, there has never been a curfew in Xiangfan City. After nightfall, it is extremely brightly lit. From a distance, it is even nicknamed "Fire Trees and Silver Flowers Never Night".

Because Li Hu was on duty tonight, and in order to avoid Commander Tian's suspicion, he only sent someone to greet Lin Fengjin.This man is called Hu San, not a soldier, but a housekeeper, who knows everything about the three religions and nine streams in Xiangfan City.

At this time, Li Hu is in charge of the armaments, and is in charge of the purchase and supply of the army. Hu San's master is also a wealthy businessman, and Li Hu must nod to get through the joints. His men came to flatter him.

Although Lin Fengjin and Lin De didn't know each other well, they were treated very well under Hu San's smiling face. In the afternoon, they took a carriage and went directly to Zhengchang Wharf in the north of Xiangfan City.

Regardless of water or land, here is a traffic fortress, the most prosperous place for goods distribution, Kuhaha alone has worked hard here, more than nearly [-] people, not to mention the twenty or so shipyards that provide maintenance, let alone These people also have wives, children, and family members. If you add up all these people, there are even more than [-] people relying on Zhengchang Wharf to eat. It can be seen how lively this place is?

The Queen Mother's birthday gift was naturally sent to the palace by the eunuchs as soon as it landed for the king to see, and the rest of the people could only wait respectfully on the boat until the news from the palace came out that the king Very satisfied.Relieved, this group of talents began to plan for their own pockets, and booked the lobby of the nearby Xiaoxiang Building, preparing to find some buyers for the private work they brought back.

This matter is naturally handled by the father-in-law who went with the boat. Of course, it is definitely inconvenient for them to hand over to outsiders. They are only responsible for opening up the joints of the government and posting posts to invite people.On the surface, it was the soldiers of Colonel Hengba who escorted the ship out, and the time to start buying was not at night, but in the afternoon.

It was at this time that Lin Fengjin came to the Zhengchang Wharf. He had read a record about it from a miscellaneous journal before, saying that it was "the hub of water and land, extremely prosperous, and the people who came and went breathed into clouds and sweated into clouds." Xi..." Now that I came here, I found that although it was not that exaggerated, it was very appropriate.

Hu San next to him is also the kind of person trained by a big family to receive entertainment. He speaks in a gentle and elegant manner, neither humble nor overbearing. Wherever he goes, he will tell local famous places and allusions. feel.

After a group of people entered the Xiaoxiang Building, they came to a place where they usually listen to operas, and sat down in order.As we all know, in this kind of occasion, even the sitting position is very particular. It is a person's identity, power, and financial resources.

Lin Fengjin noticed that he was sitting near the front, and it was not a box, so he probably judged the status of Hu San's master's family in Xiangfan. It is strong, but the dark forces are not enough.

This kind of situation, unless it has to go through several generations of management, or if there is an amazing and talented person in the family, it can be improved if the official is at least the third grade—that is, the hall officials in the six departments the point.

This is not the first time that Xiaoxiang Building has undertaken such a thing. Nanzheng has many waterways, so the shipping industry is well developed, and the monarch is not a short-sighted king who is closed to the country. There are two or three such sales meetings every month, so the shopkeeper The buddies are familiar with everything, just follow the previous regulations.

Soon, a platter was placed on the red lacquered coffee table in front of Lin Fengjin, which contained seasonal dried fruits: hazelnuts, cashew nuts, white melon seeds, sunflower seeds, peanuts, lotus seeds, pine nuts, and chestnuts.

You must know that the logistics at this time are far less developed than later generations, and it is very rare to be able to get such a platter. It is estimated that the consumption of fruits in such a platter can support the lives of several families for several months.Being able to provide this plate of snacks for free shows that the quality of this shopping fair is definitely not low.

At this time, it was still chaotic outside, and the seats inside were less than half full. The people who sat down were self-confident, and rarely talked or laughed loudly, but it was inevitable that there would be chattering and buzzing one after another.

When Lin Fengjin was waiting impatiently, a young man in a green coat and cap suddenly came from the corridor next to him, and respectfully handed him a famous card.

This thing is an ancient business card, but it is very elegant, and it is subtle. It is not recommended to directly print the title of the chairman of a certain president on it, but it is similar to the family emblem of medieval Europe, which is obscure and low-key. The identity of the owner is displayed.

For example, if the cover of the greeting card is yellow, then the owner must be the royal family, and if the cover is purple, then the identity of the owner is a royal minister.However, the color of the greeting card that Lin Fengjin got was ordinary plain blue, but there was a big pattern on it.

This pattern is no stranger to Lin Fengjin, because it is a vivid pattern of the sun, the moon and money, and the one who dares to use this pattern to make greeting cards is unique in the world, and that is the Xiangfan Bank!

Hu San was very shrewd, seeing that Lin Fengjin, a newcomer, could actually make people from Xiangfan Bank come to pay homage, he couldn't help but look up to them.As well-established wealthy merchants, they certainly knew what such giants as the Xiangfan Bank represented.

Lin Fengjin also ignored the thoughts of others, knowing that his "fishing" tactics should have worked. In fact, it was mainly Mr. Gu, who was obsessed with tricks, who sold the bottom of the Xiangfan Bank. clean.

In addition, Lin Fengjin put on a tough attitude of destroying the drawings completely, so it was only natural for people from Xiangfan Bank to come to him.

Following this young man, he came to a box upstairs, which was basically the best place, and everything was clear at a glance just by looking down from here.

As soon as you walk into the private room, you will be greeted by a scent of tea. The decoration inside is in a clean and quiet style. Not to mention the rest, the platters on the table are dried fruit platters, fresh fruit platters, and dessert platters. There are a total of seven cold platters, etc., and the methods of arranging, pushing, stacking, surrounding, placing, and covering are all available.All of a sudden, the following specifications were compared.

There was only one person in the box, the middle-aged beautiful woman Wang was in charge.When she saw Lin Fengjin coming in, she said half jokingly and half seriously:

"Mr. Lin is really hard to invite. I insist on letting the servants come to find you."

Lin Fengjin's pupils shrank slightly. He didn't remember that he had mentioned his surname at the Xiangfan Bank, which meant that this woman had already begun to investigate her details, but that was fine.The more this woman values ​​herself, the more she is determined to win, and the higher the bargaining chip she can get.

Lin Fengjin also continued Wang Guanshi's words with a smile and said:

"No way, life and death are at stake, and the rest of the mundane things can be put aside."

Steward Wang smiled and said:

"I heard that Mr. Lin has a very close relationship with the newly appointed Manager Li in the Habayashi Guard. It should be from him that he got the news about the shopping fair? Although there are indeed a few of the special products brought back from overseas this time. A treasure that can prolong life, but it has already been reserved by several wealthy families, and it will be very difficult for Mr. Lin to get a share of it."

Lin Fengjin glanced at her, first took a half sip of a cup of tea next to her, and praised:

“Good tea!”

Then he said calmly:

"As the saying goes, everything depends on man's efforts. I can't wait to die in vain."

The two fought with each other, but Lin Fengjin refused to give in at all. The middle-aged beautiful woman finally sighed and said:

"That's all, I won't play around with you anymore. We have a Bodhi fruit in our bank, which is good at nourishing qi and blood. You take out that blueprint and add the two things you took from the bank yesterday. Just exchange it." give it to you?"

Lin Fengjin laughed loudly, and winked at Lin De.Lin De grimaced, stretched his hand into his bosom, and took out a stack of banknotes from his bosom, the top one was 1 taels payable at sight, and what's even more ridiculous was that it was the banknotes of Xiangfan Bank. Look at the thickness, let alone a few 10 taels!Lin Fengjin sneered beside him and said:

"I don't know if it's pre-ordered or not, but since the person in charge held this buying fair, it must be with the intention of selling more silver taels! If you can pre-order any shit, what kind of shit would they do? Just come and pick up the goods. No matter how big the face of the rich family is, can it be worth two or three times the money? I am a fucking dying person, and I can still take care of the face of the rich family?"

What Lin Fengjin said happened to be what the middle-aged beautiful woman was most worried about.

Yes, it is true that there are wealthy families who ordered overseas longevity treasures, but these few wealthy families are not determined to get this thing, at least two of them are afraid of Lin Fengjin's Habayashi Guard backstage.

And more importantly, Lin Fengjin's surname is obviously a very ruthless kind, and he is even more reckless when it comes to his own life. If he is determined to snap up, he will almost certainly get it. To an overseas treasure.

And after Lin Fengjin bought what she needed, the middle-aged beautiful woman knew very well that it would be even more difficult to get the blueprint from this little fox, and she would have to pay ten times the price!So that's why she came here in a hurry to meet Lin Fengjin before the shopping fair.

But Guanshi Wang didn't know that among the thick stack of banknotes that Linde took out, only a few were real!The rest are all paper...
