Chapter twenty-eight

When the children returned to Bailuyuan, Bailuyuan was also about to send someone to find him.

The men and the men also took away the tables. Chen Nanxun took several brothers to the front yard and listened to Zhuyuan continuing to have tea and talk.

It is probably the same for all the men in the world. No matter how unfamiliar they are or how far away they are, they can call each other brothers after drinking a few glasses of sake.

The uncles who were originally polite and a little unfamiliar, had to drink wine, and Lu Sanlang even went to the northwest to help the Shen family sell horses.

Although there is no need to be a deep relationship, in-laws are different. From the moment in marriage, an interest group has naturally formed.

There is indeed a reason why they came to Kyoto with great fanfare this time. But how many of these reasons are, it depends on how trust and ability they have with Shen Nanxun.

Lu Erlang went to the study to drink a cup of tea. The first important news he threw down after suppressing the drunkenness was,

"If Jiulang is ranked well, he will be in the official position."

Chen Nanxun ate a few more sips of wine and reacted slightly, "Did my grandfather figure it out?"

Lu Silang shook his head, "You have to understand it if you can't figure it out. So what if the Lu family doesn't enter the official position? What if you want to add a crime? So what if you don't have any words to say? What if you have a disciple and a family are everywhere? There has always been only icing on the cake."

Chen Nanxun nodded. This is because there are very few people who provide timely assistance.

"I went to Cheng Ge'er's mansion next time, and he said you were scolded for your morning court?" Lu Silang continued.

Chen Nanxun nodded indifferently, "I insisted on going back to Beijing, but it was because I didn't do my job well."

"What is the charter now?"

"I've been fined and sent someone else."

Several brothers looked at each other and said that they were the only king of the opposite sex in this dynasty. But why did they still have a lot of money after seeing it over the years?

But the Shen family is not uncommon. Not to mention that they are far away, Chen Nanxun's grandfather and the old prince are also a hero of the generation. The Tubo is in a state of obedience. Seeing that the Shen family is about to get up, okay, Chen Nanxun's father can't get on the horse.

If a general is not allowed to go on horseback, he will basically destroy the general's path.

The Shen family has not been able to get up for many years, but they can't get up anymore.

It was not until Chen Nanxun grew up to the sixteenth level and was sent by the old prince as the vanguard, leading one thousand people by one, touching the rear of Tutu, burning the camp, and winning the first victory in his life.

I wonder if Chen Nanxun can get up as the prince’s mansion as the head of the county magistrate.

Thinking of this, Lu Erlang asked Chen Nanxun: "Dalang has been back to Beijing for more than three years and has never received a job seriously."

Chen Nanxun said indifferently: "It is a good thing that the sea is clear and the river is peaceful, the country is peaceful and the people are safe, and it is a good thing that the generals have no responsibilities."

Lu Sanlang snorted coldly, "Hmph, what about the sea and rivers? I think only Kyoto can sing and dance to achieve peace."

"Please tell me in detail, my uncle." Chen Nanxun was very interested in this topic.

"You can only see the inner canal boats coming, but there are no one to travel outside the sea."

"Hasn't it been more than 30 years since the sea opened?"

In the early years, Da Yong had to ban the sea, and the southeast coastal areas could only go out to sea to fish, and the people's livelihood was really declining. Thirty years ago, when the late emperor was there, Da Yong finally opened the sea with the promotion of Jiangnan literati led by Lu Zhan.

It can be seen that Lu Sanlang was also a little dissatisfied with the court.

"In the early years, I went overseas and made a lot of profits, but no matter how rich the profits were, they could not withstand layers of exploitation. It was originally just a difficult thing to deal with. As long as the relationship could be established, some people were willing to go overseas. Now, as long as life can pass, no one was willing to take risks."

Lu Sanlang is the eldest son of the second wife. He has been with Lu Er Grandpa since he was a child and studied with his students.

"Two months ago, the water gangsters almost got ashore, so it would be better if they didn't leave the sea." Lu Sanlang was heartbroken.

Chen Nanxun was a little confused, "How could the navy in several ports be brought to the shore with tens of thousands of people?"

"Hmph, navy, they are more terrifying than siege. No one is fat and full of intestines, but I am afraid that even the springboard can't hold them up easily."

Lu Silang still remembers that his sister-in-law was also a military general who led the army. "We also know that the military's silver payment is insufficient, but if the exploitation is too much, it will be unpleasant to disturb people's livelihood."

This is true. It is not just that people value culture over military affairs. If the imperial court had not given a signal, how could people in the world dare to come here?

The imperial court reported tens of millions of dollars every year, but the military's silver salary was less than one or two. Occasionally, there were casualties in wars, and the court reported that it was only a few dollars for pensions.

If you want to support the soldiers, the general always has to raise money for himself. In summer and autumn, he will not starve to death. However, it is difficult to endure spring and winter. If you don’t have to keep up with the green and yellow spring, you will have to starve for a while. In winter, heavy snow is flying and cold is inevitable.

There are also reasons why Chen Nanxun was able to know Lu Balang.

When the old prince was still alive, the Chen Nanxun brothers did not walk around Qinfeng Road for about half a year, but walked everywhere, just to broaden their horizons and experience different customs and customs.

Chen Erlangduo walked north, northwest to northeast, and he walked many rounds of defense lines in the north, heading north and deep into Shangjing Road, west to Huihui Wangting.

Chen Nanxun didn't. He knew very well that the primary condition for Sergeant An was that the silver pay was in place, and food and clothing must be guaranteed. It would be great if there was still a surplus for the soldiers to support their parents.

Wherever there is more money, it is naturally a prosperous Jiangnan area. Wherever there is enough food and grass, it is still the hometown of fish and rice, Jiangsu and Zhejiang Road.

Chen Nanxun left Yongjun Road and headed south, passed Huainan 2nd Road to Jiangnan 2nd Road, and finally arrived at Liangzhe Road.

On Jiangnan East Road, Chen Nanxun met Lu Balang who went to She County to ask for an inkstone and was almost deceived. Chen Nanxun rescued Lu Balang who was slandered by force and asked someone to ask for an explanation. Lu Balang knew that Chen Nanxun was going all the way east, so he invited Chen Nanxun to go with him.

Although Chen Nanxun was born into a military general, he was also a person who was familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics since he was a child. The old prince Chen Zhanchuan often mentioned Lu Zhan and Heming Academy. Since Chen Nanxun arrived at Liangzhe Road, he had to visit and admire him.

In this way, the two people who did not reveal their true identities, but claimed that they had been brothers for more than a month and traveled to Piling.

When they arrived at the foot of Heming Academy, the two said goodbye, one of them was going up the mountain to the academy, and the other was going to go home in the city.

Lu Zhan saw the greeting letter brought by Chen Nanxun to bring Chen Nanxun back to the Lu Mansion in the city. Chen Nanxun and Lu Balang met again in the mansion and learned about each other's identities.

But Chen Nanxun's identity was not widely publicized, but the masters of the Lu family knew it, but the husband of the man could not be clear.

Chen Nanxun lived in Piling for more than half a year in the name of studying at Heming Academy. He saw the prosperous literary style of Liangzhe Road and the prosperity of Huainan, Jiangnan, Liangzhe.

I set up shops several times and started a business. I also bought grain and took the Yingshui River to take the valley water and transported it along the Yellow River to Yongxing Jun Road. The soldiers could have a full winter and spring.

The seed soldiers brought back from the land of fish and rice, and also learned about business and marketing between border cities from wealthy places.

The sergeant ensures that the border town market is smooth and safe, and the merchants participating in the transaction will withdraw 10% of the copper coins and hand them over to the sergeant.
