70. Life on board(1/2)
When a man goes out to do business, how can Shuang'er, who is at home, also go with him?
Before, Jiang Zhen took Zhao Jin to go out and Zhao Liu never stopped her because she was worried that someone would poach Jiang Zhen... Then He Qiusheng looked like he was still obsessed with Jiang Zhen!
Her brother Jin followed Jiang Zhen, and those little fairies should have retreated, right?
Because of this idea, Zhao Liu never stopped Zhao Jin and followed Jiang Zhen before, but now he is going to go far...
"Of course, Brother Jin will go too." Jiang Zhen said without hesitation, there was no reason why they had to be in another place just one month after they got married.
In modern times, there are so many women doing business everywhere. Zhao Jin Ge is a strong man, and in his opinion, there is no relationship between him.
Jiang Zhen also knew that in the eyes of others, Zhao Jin'er was a Shuang'er, and he could just take care of his husband and children at home, but in his opinion, Zhao Jin'er is not worse than those men. Even Zhao Jin himself is working hard to learn various knowledge and want to become more powerful.
Since that's the case, he will definitely give Brother Zhao Jin a chance.
"Mom, I want to go." Zhao Jinge also said. If he had been kept as Shuang'er at home, he might not have had those shocking thoughts, but for a long time, he lived like a man.
These days he went out with Jiang Zhen and trained with Jiang Zhen's men. He actually had a very happy life.
Of course, the most important thing is that he hopes that he can become as powerful as Jiang Zhen and do something for Jiang Zhen, so as not to appear too useless.
Zhao Liu looked at the two people in front of him in confusion, but didn't stop him.
When Jiang Zhen and Zhao Jin left, she found someone again and began to sigh: "You said Jiang Zhen is really true. You have to take my brother Jin with me when you go out..."
Don’t think that you act like this, we don’t know that you are very proud! The people who listen to Zhao Liu’s words are very depressed, but I have to say that they actually... sometimes they like to hear Zhao Liu’s words.
In this village, Zhao Fugui is a rare good man. Who doesn’t envy Zhao Liu? Now another Jiang Zhen is coming out...
Just listening, they were also happy.
After hearing what Zhao Liu said about Jiang Zhen and Zhao Jin Ge, someone suddenly mentioned Old Mrs. Jiang.
"Of the Zhao family, the second son of the Jiang family is also going to do business, do you know?"
"I heard a few words, what's wrong?" Zhao Liu asked.
"Old Mrs. Jiang praises his second son every day. Her second son borrowed a boat from the village chief's family. It is said that he has returned from a lot of seafood and can earn a lot of money."
"He is also going to buy seafood..." Zhao Liu sighed. Jiang Zhen started his business by selling seafood, but he didn't expect that Jiang Chengcai also went to buy seafood.
"Can you really make money by buying seafood and selling it?" the man asked again.
"It should be possible? But Jiang Zhen said it was quite hard. Look, he had a little more capital, so he wouldn't do this." Zhao Liu said. She didn't know much about Jiang Zhen's business, but she heard from Brother Zhao Jin about the fact that he was too tiring to do the sea goods business.
"That's how..." Hearing Zhao Liu's words, some people who had heard that the sea goods business was good before and wanted to buy some sea goods to sell them were silent.
They should first see what Jiang Cheng can do in order to make the business, and then decide whether to do this business as well.
The Jiang family is very lively now.
Jiang Chengcai came back from a large ship of sea cargo. He had already calculated that as long as he could sell all of these sea cargoes, he should be able to make twice the money!
He bought twenty taels of silver, which means he could earn twenty taels of silver back!
For a time, when Jiang Chengcai walked, he was full of vigor. What is Jiang Chengxiang? After reading books for so many years, can’t he only earn two taels of silver a month?
It's Jiang Zhen...
Thinking of the things that Jiang Zhen did now that the people in the village said, Jiang Chengcai did not dare to say that he must be better than Jiang Zhen.
But he felt that one day he would be able to surpass Jiang Zhen, the elder brother who had never been seen by him.
Old Mrs. Jiang felt so, and she couldn't stop seeing people she knew each other and came to her house to buy salted fish and kelp.
Jiang Zhen didn't know what happened to Jiang Chengcai. At this time, he was already on his own boat and was about to leave Hecheng County.
Most of the small businessmen went with them, and only a few, like Li Mingzhe, sent people to follow them.
Because there were too many people and the goods were more than Jiang Zhen thought at the beginning. In the end, Jiang Zhen rented an extra boat before loading everyone in.
The goods had been loaded on the ship long ago, and today, Jiang Zhen checked all the merchants who boarded the ship and the personal belongings they carried.
Jiang Zhen checked it very carefully and said that it was for everyone's safety, so these businessmen were not dissatisfied at all.
At about 9 a.m., the two ships left the dock and headed towards the direction of the city...
After the ship began to move forward, Jiang Zhen was not idle either. He went to see how the sailors controlled the ship, and also let Wang Haisheng and the He brothers and a few people he could trust to learn something.
The more than thirty people he accepted were actually picked by him. He excluded them from the beginning from the beginning. In fact, Liu Heitou was an unstable person in the entire team.
But this Liu Heitou... Jiang Zhen couldn't kill him. If he let him go, he might even secretly cause trouble for himself... After thinking about it, Jiang Zhen simply put him under his nose and stared at him.
With him watching, Liu Heitou would not be able to play any tricks.
However, although these people have no major problems except Liu Heitou, Jiang Zhen still cannot trust them all, and it is reflected when he arranges work for this person.
Of course, these people probably can't see it.
Those who were even quite proud of being patrolled by him on the deck because he didn't trust him...
The two ships, whether they were thugs or merchants, were natives from Hecheng County, and they had basically boarded the boats. They used to ride in those unstable boats, so although some people were not very comfortable, no one was seasick.
At noon, everyone was having a meal on the boat. When Jiang Zhen talked with the merchants before, he talked about the food expenses.
They had food on the boat, and these merchants could say hello in advance and ask the kitchen to prepare one for them when preparing the meals, or eat what they brought.
Today, it was about the first day, and almost everyone brought their food, and only a few people asked for the food on the boat.
Jiang Zhen asked the two mothers who helped them cook in Qiaotou Village before to help cook the food on the boat. The taste was average, but because of his request, there were two vegetarian food, one meat and one soup for each meal, and there were quite a lot of choices.
Now in Hecheng County, the most vegetables are cowpeas, green beans, cucumbers, eggplants, loofahs, etc. The ones I ate at noon this day were fried cowpeas, pickled cucumbers, loofahs and pickled cabbage soup, and as for meat dishes, they were braised pork.
After all, it was a big pot of dishes. It didn't look good, but it was hot... Some merchants who brought their own food regretted not eating on the boat. Later, when someone asked, they said that they would eat on the boat in the evening and learned that they could order some dishes on the boat, and some people ordered stir-fry.
During the day, Jiang Zhen was busy all the time, but at night, when he approached the city, he felt relaxed.
Thinking that it was the first time that Brother Zhao Jin was going far away, Jiang Zhen thought about letting him eat better, so he went to the cooking place on the boat, then chose a piece of pork belly and stir-fry the oil in the pot, then put two garlic in it, stir-fry it, and then put it in the cowpeas and stir-fry it.
His cooking skills are not very good, but the cowpeas fried like this are definitely much better than the two women said to be fried. In fact, the cowpeas cooked are much more delicious.
After making sliced meat, Jiang Zhen stir-fried a bowl of eggplant with dai sauce, and then went to Brother Zhao Jin with rice and braised pork.
At this time, the big ship was not small, but it was incomparable to those big ships in modern times. The places where people could live were small. Whether Jiang Zhen’s subordinates or those merchants, they all slept in the same cabin, but Jiang Zhen and Zhao Jin Ge monopolized one cabin.
The room was small, only four square meters, but at least no one came to disturb him.
Jiang Zhen brought the vegetables into his room and saw Brother Zhao fiddling with his abacus there.
This abacus was made back by Jiang Zhen. He learned a little abacus in mathematics class when he was a child, but to be honest, except for the one above representing five and the one below representing one, he almost completely forgot about the others.
He planned to learn again, but unfortunately he had not had time.
"Jiang Zhen, you are back!" Seeing Jiang Zhen, Brother Zhao Jin immediately stood up.
"Well, it's time to eat." Jiang Zhen put down his bowl and said, "We will stop here in the city for a day tomorrow. Do you want to go on the shore?"
"Are you going?" Brother Zhao Jin asked.
"I'm a little busy." Jiang Zhen said. After all, it was his first trip and he had to watch all the places, so he didn't have time to accompany Brother Zhao Jin to visit.
"Then I won't go, I'll help you." Brother Zhao Jin said. Although he didn't understand some things, he could do simple things like ordering and other things, and could also help Jiang Zhen a little.
"Okay." Jiang Zhen leaned over and kissed Brother Zhao Jin.
Brother Zhao Jin was startled, but did not hide, just said, "Don't do this, this is on the boat." The sound insulation effect on the boat is quite poor, and you can even hear it when you speak next door...
"It's just a kiss, but I don't do it, what are you afraid of? Even if you do it... there's no problem with the sound being lighter." Jiang Zhen teased.
"Then you have to be careful and don't make a sound." Brother Zhao Jin thought for a while and said to Jiang Zhen.
Jiang Zhen: "..." He actually forgot when he teased people. Even if Brother Zhao was extremely happy, he would not make any sound. So... they would have sounds at night, basically because he was too loud, and the bed would "cry".
But it is always a bit strange for Brother Zhao to say this...
"How about you come, and then let's be gentle?" Jiang Zhen said again.
"I'll do it?" Brother Zhao Jin looked at Jiang Zhen in confusion. How did he come?
"Eat first, and I will teach you later." Jiang Zhen said.
Brother Zhao Jin started eating silently, but his heart was full of turmoil - he always had a bad premonition.
Also, how did Jiang Zhen know so much?
Brother Zhao Jin went out to work with his father at a very young age. He heard others say some dirty words and knew a little about men and women. He had already thought that this was not good before. After all, some Shuang'er didn't understand at all.
But after being with Jiang Zhen... Brother Zhao suddenly realized that he seemed to know too little.
How could Jiang Zhen know so many things?
Brother Zhao Jin couldn't figure it out, so he ate a few more bites of the dish and asked, "Is this what you asked the woman to make? This piece of meat is so delicious."
"That woman can't make such delicious food. I made it." Jiang Zhen smiled.
Brother Zhao Jin looked at Jiang Zhen in surprise, and suddenly regretted that he had eaten too fast before and had never tasted it well.
Although he had never eaten much of what Jiang Zhen made, after the relationship between the two was revealed, Jiang Zhen never cooked... Moreover, this was what Jiang Zhen made for him to eat.
Just thinking about it, Brother Zhao felt satisfied.
Jiang Zhen is so nice, he must work harder so that he can help Jiang Zhen.
Although Brother Zhao likes to eat sliced meat, he only tasted it for two pieces, and then stopped moving his chopsticks, wanting Jiang Zhen to eat more.
