Chapter 794
Gu Long has a famous saying, "A man has no money, like a sack without muscles and bones, and he cannot stand up."
Having been determined to keep Chen Junyan, Xu Changqing quickly changed his strategic plan in Qufu, focusing on making money.
Although he had instructed Funing Hou Zhu Guobi to speak out loud to the people of Lunan Trading Company, Xu Changqing did not give much hope for this.
In the past three years, the main force of the Qing army has ravaged southern Shandong twice. These wealthy and powerful families may have been cunning in their hiding rabbits, and they have some reservations, but they are inevitably hurt.
In addition, the affairs of the Lianghuai River have just begun. As soon as they came up, they were asked to take so much money, which was undoubtedly similar to taking their lives. Everyone would definitely be more cautious.
But this is like the famous saying of the richest man in later generations: "Make him one hundred million first."
If the one million rule is formulated, there have been 250,000 taels of income anyway, and one more big son is profitable.
Xu Changqing originally wanted to stay with Kong Xi and his daughter for a while and train Kong Xi, but this little girl seemed a little dull in this regard and was in a bad mood. Xu Changqing was still distracted after staying for a while, leaving her some great pressure, and she went back to Songyue Tower.
Xu Changqing also needs some time to plan carefully how to use the news from Kong Xi to make Chen Junyan spit out some money.
Back to Songyue Tower, the snow has fallen even harder, floating and rustling, and the whole world is full of vastness, making people feel sad.
He called his personal soldiers to make a few side dishes and just eat them to fill their stomachs. Xu Changqing suddenly remembered that he had asked Zheng Chagu to make soup before, so he went to find her.
Unexpectedly, this little girl had already noticed that Xu Changqing had come and had already escaped to her elder brother's room.
Xu Changqing originally wanted to go back to the military camp outside the city tonight to sleep, but he didn't plan to actually treat Zheng Cha Gu. After all, Miss Zheng's identity is not something she can do if she doesn't look at the monk's face and the Buddha's face.
But this little girl was so ignorant that Xu Changqing couldn't help but scare her.
I immediately came outside Zheng Sen's room.
After a moment, Zheng Sen came over to open the door. At this time, he had already recovered a lot and said with a hurried smile: "Mr. Marquis, why do you have time to come to Damu?"
Xu Changqing smiled and said, "It's nothing, I just made a small bet with Miss Cha Gu, but Miss Cha Gu obviously didn't take it seriously."
As he said that, Xu Changqing looked at Zheng Chagu who wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it: "Miss Chagu, where is my soup?"
Zheng Sen also understood the little interest of Xu Changqing and Zheng Chagu, and hurriedly said with a smile: "Mr. Marquis, I'll make you laugh. My sister has been spoiled since she was a child, and she has been spoiled."
As he said that, he looked at Zheng Chagu with displeasure, "Chagugu, why are you still staying here for? Why don't you go and make soup for the Marquis?"
"I……"
Zheng Chagu wanted to vomit blood for a moment. Is her eldest brother a piece of wood? He wants to push his girl into the fire pit with his own hands...
But seeing Zheng Sen's face full of lust, she could not refute at all, so she could only follow Xu Changqing out like a grievanced young wife.
After going out, he gritted his teeth and threatened Xu Changqing: "Brother Xu, it's not sweet to twist me. You, if you dare to bully me today, I will fight you to the death!"
Xu Changqing was not angry and said, "Girl, stop talking about other things, go and make soup for my brother. When I have enough food and drink, let's talk about other things."
“…”
Looking at Xu Changqing who was calm and composed, Zheng Chagu really wanted to strangle him to death. Did he really treat her Miss Zheng as a maid?
At this time, a personal soldier suddenly came over and whispered a few words in Xu Changqing's ear.
Xu Changqing couldn't help but feel happy: "Oh, this relationship is good, how much does it weigh in on a wild boar?"
The personal soldier was also a clever man, and he hurriedly said, "There is almost a small 400 kilogram, and he should be the king of Jiuxian Mountain, who is cleaning up in the camp."
Xu Changqing smiled and patted his personal soldiers on the shoulder: "Go, prepare the horse, I will return to the camp immediately!"
"yes!"
Seeing the personal soldiers walking downstairs quickly, Xu Changqing seemed to be leaving too. Zheng Chagu was not as curious as the girl after all, so he hurriedly grabbed Xu Changqing and said, "Brother Xu, what's wrong? Have you caught a big wild boar?"
When Xu Changqing saw that Zheng Chagu had taken the bait, he couldn't help but smile and said, "A small matter is a small matter. A few personal soldiers went to Jiuxian Mountain for a walk today, and happened to meet a big guy. I heard from those guys that there were tigers on Jiuxian Mountain. I will go to Jiuxian Mountain to have fun tomorrow to see if I can hunt any good things."
As he said that, Xu Changqing pinched Zheng Chagu's moist and pretty face: "My sister, let's keep the account of Tang He first. I will come to you after I finish my work."
So he strides downstairs.
"Ai?"
Zheng Chagu was stunned for a moment and reacted instantly. He hurriedly grabbed Xu Changqing's clothes and prevented Xu Changqing from leaving. He said hurriedly: "Brother Xu, so to say, are you going to hunt tomorrow?"
"hold head high."
"What, you are interested in Cha Gu, too? But you are a daughter and you will definitely not be able to play with me. Let's see you back."
"Brother Xu, don't worry. Who said I am a daughter-in-law? I can also ride a horse and shoot a bow? Can you take me with you tomorrow?"
Zheng Chagu was pitiful and looked at Xu Changqing with anticipation in her beautiful eyes.
"Well..."
"My sister, it's not that my brother doesn't want to take you, but your reputation is really... and your elder brother..."
Xu Changqing was unable to act on his face, but he wanted to laugh at the pig's chirping in his heart.
Although five hundred years have passed and the world has changed a lot, Zheng Chagu’s fun of being rich and beautiful has not changed much. It is just a word, ‘curiosity’!
As long as you create some exciting new things, you won’t worry about not taking the bait!
"Brother Xu, what's wrong with the girl's credibility? You're not bullying. My elder brother still has a lot of things to do with, and he doesn't have time to care about me too much. If you don't take me, I'll tell me about your bullying. Besides, we have a reputation, Brother Xu, I'm your kissing wife. Brother, you take your kissing wife out for fun, who can say what? At worst..."
Zheng Chagu said, her pretty face blushing as if it was about to drip water. She grabbed Xu Changqing's big hand and took the initiative to put it on her buttocks, "That's a big deal, I'll let you touch me a few more..."
Xu Changqing couldn't help but smile. He was about to refuse, but after thinking for a while, he pretended to be 'Pig Brother' and said, "Miss Tea Girl, this time, you won't lie to me again, right?"
"Oh."
Zheng Chagu smiled shyly: "Brother Xu, if the girl lies to you this time, then I'm a puppy, okay?"
"become."
"Then I'll just say that. I'll send someone to call you tomorrow morning! Get up earlier and I'll leave some wild boar meat for you to taste it."
"good."
"Brother Xu, they all fell in love with you at this time."
...
After parting with the joyful Zheng Chagu, Xu Changqing couldn't stop feeling comfortable.
Today, someone did hit a wild boar, but it was not hit by his personal soldiers, but by the Hongniang who came back from Ningyang.
Many affairs in Ningyang have been sorted out. Hong Niang came back in person and sorted out her carefully with Xu Changqing and would go back early tomorrow morning.
Now everything seemed to be on track, perfectly fitting...
...
More than an hour later, Xu Changqing lay comfortably in the warm tent as warm as spring, enjoying the delicious wild boar meat while listening to the Hongniang wearing only a red bellyband reporting on Ning Yang's detailed affairs.
There were still many blushings on the pretty face of the Hongniang, but it gradually became solemn: "Changqing, there is no problem with food now, but there is a shortage of cotton clothes. These women and children did not bring much cotton clothes when they escaped. Moreover, the winter in the two Huai River is not too cold, and there are no cotton clothes at all. What should I do?"
Xu Changqing frowned when he heard this.
Even though there is no shortage of firewood in this bad weather, people cannot just stay in the tent and eat rice. There are tens of thousands of people, even if they are women and children, eating, drinking, defecating and urinating every day is definitely not a small amount.
The Qing army did leave some food and grass, but it could not withstand such a consumption method.
Not to mention taking people back to Haicheng.
But in this state, the entire Jiangbei region is in chaos. How can we create too many cotton clothes in a short period of time?
Seeing that Xu Changqing was also in trouble, Hongniang couldn't help but say, "Changqing, otherwise, let's bear it and raise them in Ningyang first. Among these female relatives, probably... many of them are pregnant. If they don't deal with it well, they may be in big trouble..."
As he said that, Hong Madam couldn't help but feel heartbroken.
This is the biggest trauma brought by war, and the most hurt are always women and children...
With the current trend of the Ming Dynasty, even if they can still find their families, it is probably difficult to reunite again, and it is even better not to find them...
"Sister Hong, don't worry, I think about it again, can living people still suffocate to death?"
Xu Changqing held the slender waist of Hong Niangzi like jade, and was also thinking quickly.
This matter must not be ignored.
In Haicheng, some more reliable abortion drugs have been developed at this time, but this thing still needs to be based on the human body.
Some women with good physical fitness may be able to withstand, while some women with poor physical fitness must think of other ways.
In short, whether these women are active or passive, good or bad, they all need a process of recuperation.
To put it bluntly, they are all very precious wealth and an investment that will definitely make a profit without losing money.
"Have it!"
Thinking of this, Xu Changqing suddenly slapped his head and said excitedly: "Sister Hong, there are two fur business companies in the Lunan Trading Company that I am contacting now. They probably have a lot of fur business. In this way, I will ask them to discount the fur and then ask someone to get more needles and thread from Jining and Qufu to Ningyang. You should keep an eye on them to make their own clothes. If they have good skills, they don't have to worry about their livelihoods in the future."
The Hongniang also understood what Xu Changqing meant for a moment, and couldn't help but be overjoyed. She took the initiative to give Xu Changqing a fragrant kiss: "Changqing, it's great, this is great. Don't worry, I'll go back tomorrow morning and prepare for Zhou Zheng first."
"Hehe, don't worry, let's finish your work tonight first."
"Damn, how could you bully people like this..."
...
Early the next morning, Hong Niangzi left in a hurry.
Not long after the Hongniang left, Zheng Chagu arrived here with his No. 20-30 Japanese soldiers and his entourage, riding a big green horse.
Xu Changqing was also a little shocked by Zheng Chagu's makeup at this time.
To be precise, it should be amazing.
At this time, Zheng Chagu was riding on the tall blue horse, wearing a snow-white fox fur cotton jacket, slightly tight deerskin pants, and wearing a pair of exquisite pony boots on her feet.
Moreover, he wore a snow-white fox fur hat on his head, but a fiery red fox fur scarf was wrapped around his neck, revealing his delicate and white pretty face.
It has both the holiness of snow and the indescribable passion and beauty.
Seeing that Xu Changqing was a little shocked, Zheng Chagu was embarrassed at first, but then he was arrogant and said coquettishly: "Brother Xu, this horse is a bit tall. I can't get it down by myself. Can you come and hug me?"
When the followers and Japanese soldiers around him heard this, they didn't even dare to raise their heads, and they were as humble and respectful as hunting dogs.
Xu Changqing couldn't help laughing, "Finish."
As he said that, he quickly came over and carried Zheng Chagu off his horse.
