Rebirth of the little landlady

Chapter 378 Hold up a piece of sky for you (2)

"It doesn't matter if you are angry, I'm just afraid that he will lose his temper. Once he loses his temper, he won't care about the world..." Yuan Bao said the word "heaven" very meaningfully, "At that time, we can't ignore it." he!"

This time, Song Chengye and Song Xinyue were even more stupid. It sounded like Yuan Bao and Su Chunsheng were helping the Duke, shouldn't they all follow the lead of the Duke?

Su Chunsheng couldn't hold back, and smiled with the corners of his mouth curled up. He knew that Yuan Bao was intentionally belittling Ni Yuze to please him, but he really remembered this affection, because in Yuan Bao's heart, he, or the Su family His safety is more important than Ni Yuze's, and this is absolutely worthless.

"Okay!" As soon as Su Chunsheng opened his mouth, Yuan Bao was relieved to eat.

After dinner, Song Chengye specially left Yuanbao, and asked the most worrying question in a low voice, "Will the Duke really not say anything about your marriage with the young master of the Su family?"

Yuan Bao was very satisfied that Song Chengye could endure it for a few days before asking, even though he just discussed Ni Yuze in front of their father and daughter, it was actually for a purpose, for fear that Song Chengye would play something wrong when he came to propose to the Su family After all, he is Yuan Bao's father and has the right to refuse the marriage.

Yuan Bao nodded lightly, "Well, my cousin won't do it," he added with a thought in his mind, "At most, the Yu family's dowry will not be given, the worst is that we will live in poverty from now on!"

Song Chengye breathed a sigh of relief, and instead persuaded Yuan Bao, "Such a large amount of money is not something ordinary people can afford. The two young masters of the Su family are both extraordinary, so how poor can they be?!" That is to say, He would not be dissatisfied with this marriage because Yuan Bao lost the Yu family's dowry.

Yuan Bao was a little touched by Song Chengye's behavior like this, and he didn't say anything more at the moment, but just silently calculated in his heart, if Song Chengye could really go on like this, she wouldn't mind leaving something for Song Chengye in the future. Not much money, but a lot of money, especially after giving Ni Yuze the 1000 million taels of silver—she estimated that with such a sum of money, Ni Yuze’s treasure ship should be built, and she and the Su family would naturally have nothing to do. Big spend.

After getting into the carriage this time, their forward speed was indeed much faster, but as they got to the capital, Yuan Bao became more and more uneasy. Her marriage with Su Chunsheng was definitely not as easy in her heart as she said. Of course, the reason was not because of the amount of dowry, but because she really couldn't face Ni Yuze.

"If it really doesn't work, I won't say anything, just ask Chunsheng to go to the county lord's mansion to propose a marriage." Yuan Bao thought a little lazily, feeling like an ostrich, burying his head in the sand, as if there were some things he didn't want to face , then there can be no general.

However, this method is not feasible. As soon as Yuan Bao and his party arrived at the gate of the capital, they met Ni Yuze who came to pick them up in person.

"Cousin..." Ai Ai Yuan Bao Qiqi stepped forward to say hello, with a shy and guilty look.

Ni Yuze looked Yuanbao up and down, his eye circles were reddish, he had to check Yuanbao with his own hands, Yuanbao guessed, if it wasn't in full view, it would be very possible for Ni Yuze to give her a hug directly.

The hug was given by Ran Ran, she jumped at Yuan Bao like a bird, was blocked by Su Chunsheng on the way, took off a lot of strength, but still hugged Yuan Bao in her arms, "Sister, you scared me to death!" Very The ordinary words, but the deep affection inside, made Yuan Bao burst into tears.

"It will never happen again in the future! I promise!" Yuan Bao choked up and said.

Qiusheng, An'an, Liu Guirong, and Su Qiaoqiao were the ones who came forward to greet them next. The Su family was reunited again at this time.

Everyone went back to Yuanbao's county lord's mansion together.

In fact, it didn't take long for Yuanbao's County Lord's Mansion to be repaired after he got it, because Yuanbao didn't even think about repairing it. In the past, he always said that it wasn't repaired, but it was just an excuse in front of Song Chengye. There is no place to stay outside the county lord's mansion, so I have to come if I don't come.

As soon as Yuan Bao arrived at the county lord's mansion, the Su family left. With Song Chengye around, the Su family was always uncomfortable except for Su Chunsheng.

Ni Yuze didn't stay for long, but before he left, he said, "No matter what you want to do next, you have to go back with me first. We haven't worshiped our ancestors this year!" This is about the Yu family Yuan Bao promised that before the Yu family had no heirs of her own, she, the adopted daughter, would fulfill her responsibilities. Over the years, she has never broken her promise.

Yuan Bao could not and would not refuse Ni Yuze's request, and immediately nodded, "Okay!"

Ni Yuze took a deep look at Yuan Bao, then turned and left.

Ni Yuze's Duke's Mansion and Yuan Bao's County Lord's Mansion are both in the imperial city, and they are very close to each other. Yuan Bao doesn't know if Ni Yuze specifically asked the emperor to make such an arrangement, or it was just a coincidence.

It was very boring for Yuanbao to go back to the capital to recuperate. The Su family was not far away, but because of avoiding suspicion, Yuanbao was embarrassed to go there on weekdays, and the existence of Song Chengye also made the Su family embarrassed to come to the county lord's mansion to see her. .

So Yuan Bao went back to the Duke's Mansion every day, presided over Zhongfu, ate and talked with Ni Yuze, and most of the time, he would hang out with Ran Ran who often came and went. too much.

On the fifth day after Yuan Bao returned to the capital, the 15 taels of gold she used to smash people in Linze County arrived. Yuan Bao was terrified. How many gold beans are issued in a year in the whole dynasty, and this time there are so many left , why don't the people below keep more, even if they lose it, how should she explain this? !
Then, the next day, the emperor's oral order arrived. This time, instead of issuing an imperial edict, Ni Yuze and Yuan Bao were announced to the palace for an audience.

"Then... what..." Yuan Bao felt that before going to see the emperor, she always had to give Ni Yuze an explanation, but is the explanation about supernatural powers so easy to give?
Ni Yuze interrupted Yuan Bao's words, "You don't have to say anything, everything is up to me, I can still do such a small thing!"

Yuan Bao swallowed, and thought, "Is this a trivial matter? I can easily be burned to death as a monster!" But seeing Ni Yuze's calm eyes, he felt the coolness of holding her but powerful hand, still nodded solemnly, "Okay!"

The emperor summoned them for a short period of time, and did not mention those golden beans at all. It is said that those golden beans have been taken away and recast into gold ingots, which have directly entered the treasury. The emperor did not mention the hijacking of Yuanbao. I just rewarded Yuanbao with some medicinal materials and asked her to "raise it well", which is probably an apology in disguise. No, for the royal family, this is called "pacification". ", this refers to the fact that Ni Yuze contributed the 15 taels of gold, but he didn't say it clearly.

In short, during the whole process, the emperor didn't distinguish between joy and anger, no matter his tone or expression, they were indifferent. Ni Yuze was even more severe, as cold as someone who just killed his own father. During the whole process, Yuan Bao only said three sentences: see , Thank you, and leave.Ni Yuze said the same thing as her. After leaving the palace, Yuan Bao glanced at Ni Yuze and sighed, "You are always like this, okay?" It is estimated that the emperor is also very worried about a brat like Ni Yuze!
Ni Yuze's answer was short and unusual, "Pack up, we will leave Beijing as soon as possible."

Three days later, Yuan Bao finally made up his mind to let go of Ranran, who was crying bitterly, and set foot on the road back to Ningnan Mansion with Ni Yuze. In fact, Yuan Bao didn't understand why Ni Yuze had to let her take Ranran with him.But Ni Yuze insisted that there was nothing she could do, thinking in her heart that she would be back soon anyway, and she would always go back to the capital for the New Year, but she never thought that when she knew the reason why Ni Yuze didn't let her take Su Youran with her, she couldn't make it as planned Back to the capital for the New Year.

When a line of darkness appeared on the distant sea, Yuan Bao and Ni Yuze had been wandering in the sea for more than 20 days.

Yuan Bao remembers that in modern times, it only takes about 20 hours to travel from Tanggu to Osaka by boat. If it takes more than [-] days, it is enough to travel from Guangzhou to Melbourne, and may also go to New Zealand or Malaysia. However, Yuan Bao has seen the map of this time and space Many times, it is very different from the modern ones, so Yuanbao does not know whether the above-mentioned place names, including the topography and landforms, exist. In addition, the speed of sailing in ancient times cannot be compared with modern times. The only thing that can be sure is that they The place we are now in is definitely farther away from the mainland than Japan.

So, where exactly is this place?

"This is called 'Yujiagang'. Many people who have been sailing for a long time know that it was first discovered by my grandfather. It has been more than 50 years now. The fleet has been floating on the sea all year round, and often encounters various accidents. It is necessary to have a suitable foothold every certain distance, to rest in normal times, and to take refuge at critical moments. In fact, there are many places like 'Yujiagang' on the routes we are used to, and some places are people. There are no places to live in, but the preciousness of "Yujiagang" is that it is uninhabited, the area is large enough, there are enough land and other properties to support many people, and there are two very good The natural deep-water port and three shallow-water ports are very suitable for large and small ships to dock..." Ni Yuze said, and their boat gradually approached Yujia Port.

Someone on the ship was standing on a high place and kept waving huge flags, and someone was setting off signal fireworks. The sailors were running around on the deck, busy with all kinds of things that Yuan Bao didn't understand, and shouted from time to time. and cheers...

In this atmosphere, Yuan Bao felt his heart beating violently, as if it was about to jump out of his chest in the next second. Looking at Ni Yuze standing next to her, he was even more different than before: His fair to somewhat morbid skin was covered with a layer of blush due to the sea breeze blowing and the sun's exposure, making him look healthy and energetic. Eight snow-white teeth were exposed. If Ni Yuze used to give people the feeling of a snow lotus on an iceberg, beautiful but lacking in popularity, then Ni Yuze now is like the rising sun in spring, warm and genial With gushing vigor and strength...

It turns out that this is the real Ni Yuze, the man who has realized his ideals and spread his wings high, is full of vigor and freedom, has endless youthful vitality, is so happy, so dazzling!Yuan Bao secretly marveled in his heart, and was fascinated by it for a while.

Another round of cheers rang out. It turned out that the ship had entered the port. The ship they were on now was the largest sea ship Ni Yuze had in hand. Those who do not reach the shore can only use small boats to transport the people and goods on it down one by one. The loudest cheers that Yuan Bao heard just now came from the sailors who came to pick them up and the sailors on the arriving ship. of.

"I've seen the master—" The sailors who came to welcome them were very excited and knelt down on the boat, because this was the first time Ni Yuze came to the "Yujiagang" built by him.

Ni Yuze waved his hand with a smile, signaling his subordinates to get up, then gently took Yuan Bao's hand, walked slowly down the stairs, boarded the boat that picked them up, and stood on the bow deck.

At this time, the scene in front of him made Yuan Bao exclaim, "Oh my God, how big is this place?" He was far away and couldn't see clearly, and then he was attracted by the scene on the boat and Ni Yuze. Only then did she clearly see the huge island in front of her, or see a part of it clearly: the houses built along the sea, the indescribably huge docks and piers, standing on the shore densely packed with no end in sight of those who came to welcome them...

Ni Yuze answered Yuan Bao's question accurately and proudly, "This island is three and a half times the size of Ningnan Prefecture, and there are some small islands around, all of which are deserted islands. I haven't had time to get them yet, and even this island is [-]% empty now. Halfway."

Yuan Bao took a breath, calculated using the knowledge of the present and this life, and came to a conclusion. It turns out that the area of ​​the island "Yujiagang" is equivalent to the four modern Japans. He sighed and said, "Grandpa has such an island, why does he still have to go to sea again, and..." This is like setting up a country by yourself and becoming the emperor!
Ni Yuze shook his head lightly, "Grandpa just discovered this island. At the beginning, he just used the natural deep-water port to take shelter from the wind and waves to rest his feet. Sometimes he couldn't even get to the shore because there was no suitable boat. No one has set foot here, and the person who really built this place as you see it is actually..." Ni Yuze held Yuan Bao's face and looked at it for a while before uttering the word, "You!"

"What nonsense are you talking about? There are so many people!" Yuan Bao patted Ni Yuze's dishonest hand away.

Ni Yuze wasn't annoyed either. His temper was so good now that he didn't look like him at all. Instead, he said seriously, "I'm not talking nonsense, it's you, Yuan Bao! Have you ever thought about it? You've already given it to me by now." How much money did you invest?"

Yuan Bao understood. It turned out that this was the base where Ni Yuze built the treasure ship. She had only seen the shipbuilding expenditure in the account book before, but she didn't know the location of the ship. With tens of thousands of people raised, it is no wonder that there are more people here. Now that I think about it, she has invested 10 million taels of silver here and there. If this wealth is not used to develop and manufacture treasure ships, it is enough to build A new country, by the way, and Ni Yuze, Ni Yuze has invested nearly ten million taels in shipbuilding since he was ten years old as a housekeeper!

In a few words, they had officially docked, and they set foot on real land for the first time in two days. Yuan Bao couldn't help but feel a little weak in his legs, and his body was still swaying like he was on a boat, as if he was drunk. Ni Yuze laughed out loud, and Yuan Bao gave him a dissatisfied look, "Aren't you the same as me?"

Ni Yuze nodded again and again, "Yes, yes, everyone will be like this, even the old sailors who go to sea all the year round will be like this, just take a rest!" He was really happy, because the situation he was most worried about didn't happen—Yuan Baodian Children are not seasick, and the water is also very good!
In fact, although Yuan Bao had never been on a big boat in her previous life, she lived in a city with a big river. This is how she learned to swim under the guidance of her father. In order to subsidize the family, I occasionally work as a waiter and wash dishes on cruise ships. In order to save time on the road, I usually live on board.

As soon as he set foot on the beach, another large group of people gathered around him, and then countless people knelt down on the ground together. The momentum was very spectacular. Yuan Bao thought, this is what it feels like to be an emperor. It's really good, no wonder There are so many people vying for the throne.

Ni Yuze just nodded to them, and took Yuan Bao into the sedan chair to welcome them. The large sedan chair carried by Shiliu was more than enough for the two of them. Ni Yuze also thoughtfully picked up the curtains and the sedan chair curtains.

The first thing that came into view was the tall and majestic city wall, and Yuan Bao was shocked when he saw it, "Why, isn't it safe here?"

Ni Yuze smiled easily, "Fortunately, so far, I haven't been attacked in the more than ten years since I built the island. However, there are pirates on the sea, so I'd better be careful. I guess some People don't dare to act rashly when they see our strength. We have gone to sea to do business all year round. We have seen too many such things. Who made our emperor refuse to open a trade port? Some people don't like us to go, and some Forgivable."

Yuan Bao nodded again and again, "Yes, yes!" In other words, she was really speechless to the emperor's decree, but thinking of the risks at sea, the emperor turned a blind eye to Ni Yuze's large number of guards , is this a blessing in disguise? !

The bluestone roads are wide and tidy, and the houses, shops, and warehouses look like houses, but every house is closed and there are few pedestrians. Yuanbao is very strange.

Ni Yuze smiled "puchi", "You still think that those people on the shore are all here to pick us up? They are the ones who pick up the goods, okay? Every time the fleet arrives at the port, it is the day for the shops to replenish their goods. Even the elderly I went to watch the fun with the kids, how can anyone be at home?!" This guy loves to laugh very much now.
