Chapter Ninety-Third: Even if you gossip and dishonor, you will be honored. The beginning of the quarrel is actually peaceful.

 Ni Sanfuli.

On this festive day, Jia Qiang had a look of lingering fear on her face: "Brother Lan, you can't imagine that every time Uncle Zhen summons me to Dongfu in the past few months, I feel creepy just thinking about it! <

/p>

I originally thought that with Uncle Zhen's personality, raising me in Dongfu since I was a child was not out of his loving heart. I originally wanted to make a career in the future and try my best to help Dongfu to repay the kindness.
p>

That day I went to Xuanzhen Temple outside the city for Uncle Zhen. Although I didn't see Mr. Jing, Uncle Zhen called me one of his own several times since then. I was still a little happy, thinking that it was something I made in Liaodong.

The elders were impressed, but I never expected that he actually wanted to...!?"

Seeing Jia Qiang's pale face, Jia Lan quickly waved to Qin Shi and asked him to bring him a jug of wine.

"Brother Qiang, don't panic! We are all our own people here. Come on, have a drink first."

Jia Qiang took the glass and drank it down, her face regaining some color: "Lang Geer, do you believe it? Uncle Zhen actually wants me to..."

Jia Lan listened carefully to Jia Qiang's words, with no surprise or a trace of impatience on his face, only calmness.

Perhaps this calmness infected Jia Qiang, and his mood gradually calmed down, but there was still an unbelievable look in his eyes.

What Jia Qiang said is indeed shocking to others, but when it comes to Jia Zhen, it is a bit natural.

The quarrel started with Ning. What frightened Jia Qiang was that it was Jia Zhen who took a fancy to his appearance and wanted to take him as her own.

Although the original Jia Qiang was handsome, she still looked like a romantic young man and was somewhat frail.

After experiencing the incident in Liaodong, Jia Qiang was refreshed and her whole appearance took on a new look. Perhaps this attracted Jia Zhen's attention immediately.

Fortunately, Jia Qiang relied on her past experience of eating, drinking and having fun, and her clever mouth to coax Jia Zhen into a frenzy, and she was able to escape.

This kind of thing sounds disgusting, but in ancient society it was not considered a treacherous or evil act.

There are similar things in both the East and the West. For example, Alexander the Great and Hephaestion had a tragic story.

Jia Lan observed his words and saw that Jia Qiang was really disgusted with such things and did not want to be hypocritical. He was secretly glad that Jia Qiang was walking the right path in the world and lived up to the hope he had placed on him before.

There are a thousand Dreams of Red Mansions in the eyes of a thousand people, and everyone has their own interpretation.

Compared with Jia Zhen and his son, who have basically concluded the coffin, people's evaluation of Jia Qiang can be said to be very polarized. Some people say that he is extremely evil, and even joined in the relationship between Jia Zhen and Qin Keqing; others say that he is extremely affectionate, and the Jia family

After the ruin, he took the senior officials to stay and live together.

The living Jia Qiang in front of her is actually a noble young master who used to be suave and took advantage of the public family. He is somewhat ambitious and aspires to make a career.

[Sure enough, we should not look at the ancients too superficially, and I wonder what happened to Jia Yun, who can be called the last watchman of the Jia family?]

Although Jia Lan has tried his best to avoid it, he still often looks at the real characters based on the original characters. Fortunately, he has a strong mind and does not let this preconception occupy his brain, so he can get to know Qin Zhong, Wu Gui, and Jia Qiang.

et al.

Of course, some of the preconceptions in the original work are quite correct, such as Daiyu, Jia Baoyu who likes to mix in the powder pile, and Jia Huan who really has a bad personality and can be called Baoyu's lifelong enemy.

"I won't hide it from Brother Qiang, but I actually have something that I have always wanted someone to run south for me. If Brother Qiang doesn't mind, why don't you do it for me?"

Jia Qiang was overjoyed upon hearing this and nodded in agreement.

Jia Lan had a deep talk with Wang Xifeng a few months ago. Although she temporarily stopped her hand because of Sister Feng's children, Jia Lan was still worried that Sister Feng would do illegal things such as issuing loan sharks or even soliciting lawsuits in the face of interests, so she kept silent.

Thinking of a way out.

Jia Lan happened to meet Liang Yong and Liang Zhuoru who were far away in Guangnan. Jia Lan wanted to get involved in the trade with the West. Even if he got a small share of the pie, the income would be tens of thousands.

Think of the Pan and Wu families in the Qing Dynasty. If it is not true to say that Heshen was the richest man in the Qing Dynasty, then the first two families are truly the richest people in the Qing Dynasty. It is not exaggeration to say that the thirteen merchants were rich enough to rival the country.

The maritime ban in the Great Xia Dynasty was generally intermittently tightened. By the Qingfeng Dynasty, except for the establishment of a shipping department in Yuzhou, Guangnan, there were almost no other trading ports.

In fact, during the Taizu era, the sea ban on the southern line of the Yangtze River was briefly lifted, but later the sea ban was promulgated again due to the war against Beidi.

Because it was an order issued by Taizu himself, it was almost the same as the ancestral system. Later generations tried to change it several times but could not change it. After all, the reason why Emperor Taizu issued the sea ban still exists today.

That is, the death place that Daxia faced, Beidi, was not the nomadic people outside the Pass who dominated the country like the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties in the late Ming Dynasty by riding and shooting, but a country with an organized amphibious and land divisions and artillery.

During the Wuqiao mutiny at the end of the Ming Dynasty, the Pi Island run by the governor Mao Wenlong fell into the hands of Beidi. Along with it came a large number of ships and artillery, and the most terrible thing was the manufacturing technology of these two. Taizu expelled Beidi from Shanhaiguan.

While abroad, the Beidi people used ships to transport a large amount of iron materials from the occupied areas.

During the reign of Emperor Taizu and Emperor Taizong, the entire east coastline was within the military peak of Beidi Navy. The imperial navy was not strong enough and could only use the method of banning the sea.

Jia Lan wants to use the Jia family's contacts in the south to sort out a stable trade route, but the problem is that he still lacks someone to go and investigate.

Leng Zixing, who has been in the antique business, is a suitable candidate, but Jia Lan cannot do without him and needs him to sit in Shenjing to coordinate his business.

If Jia Qiang is willing to go, with his vision and aesthetics from Dongfu, he would be a good candidate.

"Since Brother Lang trusts me, I have nothing to say. Anyway, it's just a trip around to investigate." Jia Qiang was obviously very happy about Jia Lan's entrustment. Now he is obviously more interested in eating, drinking and having fun than before.

Like to do some practical things.

Jia Lan was worried that he was only three minutes old, so he couldn't help but remind him: "Although it's just an inspection, you still have to visit several provinces, and whether you think it's good or not, Brother Guangqiang, you still have to figure out the preferences of Westerners. So there's no way to tell everyone."

I’m afraid I won’t be able to get back a year and a half.”

"Isn't this just right!"

"Well, I'll say hello to Aunt Feng and see if Mr. Zhao is under control. You two will team up and run for me."

Jia Qiang was overjoyed: "That's great! Master Zhao is a very suitable person, and I just want to ask him to come out and help."

Seeing that Jia Qiang was really thinking about the mission, Jia Lan was relieved a lot, so he gave detailed instructions. If possible, he hoped that Jia Qiang could go to Guangnan Haojing.
