Jiang Zhen has been here for less than a year and has not lived in Hexi Village for a long time. There has not even been many beautiful memories there.

But even so, he still missed He Xicun very much.

After all, Zhao Fugui and Zhao Liu were there, so he regarded it as his home.

Before Jiang Zhen, he could be called home, but after he really got close to Hexi Village, he felt a little heavier.

He would be in such a mood for nothing else, just because... this time he went to the capital and came back from the capital, and there was no one under his command.

Only one of his subordinates died, which was much better than the Zheng family's caravan, but the man was dead after all.

That person... was taken out by him.

Jiang Zhen didn't want such an accident to happen, but he felt a little guilty.

"Boss, why are you unhappy?" Jiang Ming asked in confusion.

Jiang Zhen didn't say anything, but looked at the box next to him.

The dead villager of Hexi Village was surnamed Li and named Li Yuan, and was only eighteen years old. After the Zheng family's fleet docked, Jiang Zhen led people to bury him, and at the same time packed his relics and put them in this box.

Later, the Zheng family gave me a pension and was also pretended to be in by Jiang Zhen. After he robbed the group of water bandits, he even put a lot of money in it.

Now, in addition to his relics, there are also three hundred taels of silver in this box. In addition, Jiang Zhen also bought some things in the capital and put them in another box, which was also for him.

Seeing Jiang Zhen do this, his subordinates also gave some things and put them in that box.

"Boss, you have already given a lot of money. Li Yuan's parents won't blame you." Jiang Ming said. Even if Li Yuan's parents are not talking about his parents, even if they are his parents, they will not be able to blame them when they see so much money.

"After all, there are no people." Jiang Zhen said. Jiang Zhen also knew that the pension he gave was already very much. When he first selected people, he didn't choose his only child... In this place where life is worthless and even population transactions are common, no one would blame him, but he was not very happy.

When Jiang Ming and others heard this, they all fell silent.

Yes, there is no one at all.

The people who had originally gone to the capital with them were gone.

Although four people in the family are normal these days, such as children. Some families have given birth to six or seven children and only three or four can raise them, but the person died in front of them, and they felt a little uncomfortable.

The boat slowly approached Hexi Village. When we got off the boat, everyone's faces were not very good-looking.

"Jiang Zhen! Brother Jin!" A voice suddenly sounded, Jiang Zhen raised his head and saw Zhao Fugui standing by the river.

This person who has always been unrestrained and always appears silent, still smiles, revealing his severely worn and slightly black and yellow teeth.

However, he quickly closed his mouth and stopped smiling, and said, "You are finally back, okay, just come back."

Since Zhao Fugui went to the capital by Jiang Zhen and Zhao Jinge, he liked to wander around the road leading to the county town in the village and by the river. Today, he came back to the city again.

Seeing Jiang Zhen and Zhao Jin Ge back from a distance, he could be said to be so happy, but the expressions of Jiang Zhen and others made him feel "splied".

These people have bad looks, and this time they go to the capital, it may not be smooth.

However, it doesn’t matter if it doesn’t go well, just come back properly.

Zhao Fugui took a look and found that Jiang Zhen was in good condition, but his son was a little fatter, and finally felt relieved.

Then, he saw something else, for example... except for the two of them, all of them were empty-handed.

In fact, when Jiang Zhen returned home, he wanted to bring more things, but he had many subordinates and didn't find several ships for a while, so where could he put things down?

If he wants to bring things back, should he also ask his subordinates to bring things back?

After taking a look at his subordinates who were carrying the load, Jiang Zhen finally asked those subordinates to put the things on the boat temporarily and come back tomorrow, of course he himself would be the same.

So, those who came home only brought a small bag full of silver, but they didn't bring anything else, and there were fewer things they took out.

Nowadays, who can't bring anything to your house when you go far away? Unless you suffer outside and spend all your money, you really have nothing to bring something to your house...

Zhao Fugui became increasingly sure that Jiang Zhen’s trip was not going well.

After coming up with such an answer, Zhao Fugui was immediately unable to ask anything again, and said, "Do you want me to help?"

"Dad, no need." Jiang Zhen said, carrying the two bags he carried behind him, and then asked Brother Zhao Jin to get off the boat first.

These two bags were filled with gold and silver, as well as the two clothes for Zhao Liu's Zhao Fugui, which were a little bigger than others. However, when he went out, he was carrying a load...

Brother Zhao Jin has been taken good care of by Jiang Zhen these days. Jiang Zhen asked him to get off the boat first, so he got off the boat first. As soon as he got off the boat, he immediately headed towards Zhao Fugui: "Dad."

"Nothing." Zhao Fugui glared at his son: "Why did you make Jiang Zhen carry a bag? I don't know how to help him?"

His son is really getting worse and worse. How could he let a man carry two bags and not take one of his own things?

Jiang Zhen paid the car and saw his father-in-law scolding his wife. He hurried over: "Dad, Brother Jin is feeling unwell."

"How can you feel uncomfortable? I think he is very strong." Zhao Fugui looked at his son and found that a circle of fur was exposed on his son's collar. He couldn't help but say, "Jiang Zhen, don't use any good things for him. Just wear a cotton jacket, why do you still let him wear leather?"

It took less than a month to come back. Brother Zhao is now pregnant and is only in his early five months. His belly is actually much more protruding, but it is not visible because he is wearing thick clothes, which makes Zhao Fugui only thinks that he is wearing too much.

Jiang Zhen was about to tell his father-in-law about Zhao Jin's pregnancy. Zhao Fugui looked around and whispered: "Also, why are you back on a boat? This is too much money!" He didn't make much money after going out, and he even came back on a boat. Isn't this a waste of money?

Jiang Zhen knew that Zhao Fugui must have misunderstood, and said immediately: "Dad, we have made a lot of money this time." After such a round trip, when the goods in his hand were taken, plus those ships and the houses in the capital, his property could be more than 200,000 taels of silver. He was definitely a big rich man. Many of them took the boat together, but only a few dozen cents were spent, and they really couldn't spend much...

Although silver is not as valuable as in previous dynasties these days, and officials in the court have to collect tens of thousands of taels for a bribe, 200,000 taels are already very, very much.

Zhao Fugui thought of Jiang Zhen's desire to spend money, and he didn't believe that Jiang Zhen, who didn't even bring back a piece of pork, would make money, but he still gave Jiang Zhen a very proud face: "Let's go back and talk."

Jiang Zhen nodded, and thought it would be better to go back. At this moment, someone suddenly rushed towards him: "Zhao Fugui, something happened, then Old Mrs. Jiang ran to your house!"

After the man shouted, he found that Jiang Zhen was there, and said again: "Jiang Zhen, you are back! You are fine when you are back."

Jiang Zhen also knew this person, a person with a good relationship with the Zhao family in Hexi Village.

Now this person says that Old Lady Jiang has gone to Zhao's house... What's going on?

Jiang Zhen frowned and was about to walk home. After walking a few steps, he looked at He Qiusheng and others: "You... send the things to the Li family first."

Li Yuan was dead. After they came back, they should go to the Li family immediately. However, something happened to Zhao Liu's side, so he had to rush over.

"Boss, don't worry, we will definitely get things done." He Chunsheng said immediately.

Nodding at He Chunsheng, Jiang Zhen immediately rushed to the Zhao family and asked the person who came out to report the message: "What's going on?"

"Jiang Chengcai was cheated of money. In order to raise money, Old Mrs. Jiang told Jiang Xiaomei a story... a bad marriage, but Jiang Xiaomei ran away and the Jiang family rushed to the Zhao family." The man said.

When Jiang Zhen heard this, he immediately frowned.

He didn't like Jiang butcher Jiang, nor did he like Jiang Chengcai and Jiang Chengxiang, but he had no feelings for the two sister-in-law and the nephew. As for Jiang Xiaomei... this was the only person he liked in the Jiang family.

Although this little sister Jiang likes to be lazy and does not help Boss Jiang work, she has never bullied Boss Jiang. If there is anything delicious, Old Mrs. Jiang will give it to her and leave some for Boss Jiang.

Jiang Zhen used Boss Jiang's body, and he also remembered these kindnesses he had given to Boss Jiang. He had not repaid Jiang Xiaomei before. First, he had no ability at that time, and second, it was because the Jiang family was not particularly bad to Jiang Xiaomei.

He remembered that when Mrs. Jiang cooked eggs, she would give Jiang Xiaomei one.

Jiang Xiaomei is different from him. She definitely doesn't want to break off relations with her parents. Jiang's butcher, Old Lady Jiang, is also good to her. In this case, he doesn't need to do anything more. When Jiang Xiaomei gets married in the future, she will give her some money and stare at her in-laws a little. It's enough.

Jiang Zhen always thought that Jiang butcher Old Lady Jiang could find a good marriage for Jiang Xiaomei, at most, he would give him less dowry. Unexpectedly...

Jiang Zhen was anxious, but when he saw Brother Zhao looking even more anxious, he became worried: "Brother Jin, run slowly, be careful..."

Brother Zhao Jin did not slow down. Jiang Zhen was trembling when he saw him running, and he could only protect him carefully.

Seeing this, Zhao Fugui felt more and more that his son was too pretentious.

At this time, the Zhao family was already in chaos.

Old Mrs. Jiang, Jiang Chengcai, butcher, and some people from the Jiang family, surrounded Sun Xiaoshan of the Zhao Liu family, and looked aggressive when she looked at Zhao Liu family.

The matter between the Jiang family has to start a month ago.

A month ago, Jiang Chengcai suddenly came home and said that there was a big business to do, just to ask for money. At that time, Mrs. Jiang listened to him introducing the business very seriously, but the butcher Jiang did not believe it and was unwilling to give money.

After that, Jiang Chengcai made a fuss almost every day, but even though he cried, he made a fuss and hanged him, butcher Jiang still had no money and was unwilling to give him money.

In fact, in the end, Jiang Chengcai was a little moved by Jiang Chengcai, thinking that it was really a good business. He could hold on and not pay money, mainly because he had no money.

People of his age cannot do things that are "big business".

Jiang Chengcai had been in trouble for many days, but finally calmed down. Jiang Butcher said that he had given up the big business and advised him to do some other small business... For example, when he was in the market, he would sell food and other things.

If you make some steamed buns, buns, and cakes, you can’t sell them, and you just eat them at home, and you can’t lose a lot of money.

But Jiang Chengcai sneered at such a business.

In this way, Jiang Chengcai was living at home every day without doing anything, just like before.

Jiang Chengcai was already accustomed to this and did not take it seriously. However, he did not expect that after ten days, Jiang Chengcai became more and more anxious. Five days ago, after he came back from outside, he cried in a collapse.

But it turned out that Jiang butcher refused to give money, and Jiang Chengcai couldn't bear to leave that business, so he finally borrowed money and invested in the so-called business!

He borrowed 120 taels of silver and thirty taels of silver in his hand, and then, those who were said to have gone out for a walk and bought the batch of precious medicinal herbs in less than ten days, never came back.

Jiang Chengcai waited for a few days, but finally couldn't sit still, so he went to the people's houses to find someone, but found that the building was empty.

They rented the big house in that county town!

They took him to the pharmacy shop and said they didn't know the two at all.

Jiang Chengcai collapsed immediately, and he was cheated of 150 taels of silver!

He still borrowed usury for the 120 taels of silver!

Although Liu Heitou, who makes money, has been taken over by Jiang Zhen, in Hecheng County, there are more than Liu Heitou who does such a "business", and the others are not as kind as Liu Heitou.
