"Master Jiang doesn't know."
The shopkeeper Wang calmed down and hurriedly explained: "Compared with the land route, the waterway is not only time-consuming, not to mention that the cost is many times lower than the land route, relatively speaking, the waterway is naturally the best choice.What's more, the risk of land is much greater than that of water transportation, all the way to the long distance, in addition to food and accommodation, it is necessary to ask the dart master to escort, a trip down alas, its own profit is already extremely low, after a trip by land, I don't know how much silver to lose. ”The explanation of the shopkeeper Wang made Jiang Chuhan suddenly realize in his heart, and after thinking about it carefully, he also blamed Wang Renfa for the sad look on his face, the businessmen who were already dissatisfied with the Commercial Division, after they also grasped the water transportation, these businessmen had to bear the already thin business, and at the same time they had to bear the high cost of transportation, but at this time, where could they talk about making money?
After thinking for a while, Jiang Chuhan suddenly asked in a deep voice: "Who was in charge of the water transportation in the past?"
”"This" The expression on the face of the shopkeeper Wang was stunned for a moment, and then he hurriedly replied: "Naturally, it is the Cao Gang." ”"Then why, the people of the Cao Gang did not come to complain to this official, but you?"
Jiang Chuhan's face became more and more immersed, and he said in a deep voice."
Adults don't know."
Shopkeeper Wang sighed heavily, thought for a while, and then said: "The people of the Cao Gang have already gone to Chen Futai many times, if it is useful, the grass people and others will not be forced to come to Lord Jiang, you will personally go out of the mountain to do justice for us small merchants and hawkers."
No, the people of the Cao Gang have already gone to Chen Futai and the Commercial Division, and now everyone has been arrested. ”"How dare the Commercial Department arrest people?"
Jiang Chuhan's eyes lit up, and he suddenly said heavily."
Isn't it?"
The shopkeeper Wang's face was sad, "The brother-in-law of the Commercial Division, that is Lord Hong, the governor of the five provinces." ”The shopkeeper blushed and stammered.Just hearing the governor of the five provinces, Jiang Chuhan's brows suddenly furrowed, Lord Hong?
Isn't it Hong Chengchou?
The governor of the five provinces, the power of the south of the Yangtze River, the south of the Yangtze River and the north of the Yangtze River, should be military money and grain, with the jurisdiction of Hong Chengchou, similar to the feudal officials, if it were not for the king shopkeeper to mention this name, I am afraid that Jiang Chuhan would have forgotten it cleanly.Jiang Chuhan's brows suddenly furrowed, Hong Chengchou?
Isn't it Hong Chengchou who had a tooth knocked out by himself?
The governor of the five provinces, whose power is tilted to the south and north of the Yangtze River, although he is a military attaché, in addition to Jinyiwei, even Chen Qiyu and others have to give him three points of face.It's just that after he knocked out his tooth, for such a long time, Hong Chengchou actually died down for a while, and he didn't find trouble for himself, according to Jiang Chuhan's thoughts, Hong Chengchou's power poured into the south and north of the Yangtze River, if he wanted to destroy himself, I am afraid it would be easier than moving his little finger.Jiang Chuhan was thinking carefully, but he didn't know that Hong Chengchou had already scolded Jiang Chuhan several times in his heart, and he couldn't move, it was really the law that shook Jiang Chuhan.Jiang Chuhan is holding the sword of Shang Fang, and he is Luo Yang and Yang Sichang's person, once upon a time, Jin Yiwei also once found Hong Chengchou and warned Hong Chengchou not to start his mind to find Jiang Chuhan for revenge, for Jin Yiwei, Hong Chengchou is also like a rat trap, God knows how many secrets these spies have mastered themselves?
Jiang Chuhan naturally wouldn't know about these things outside his body.After thinking about it slightly, Jiang Chuhan suddenly asked lightly, "The rest of the merchants, where are they now?"
”"They are all in their respective homes, waiting for the good news of the grass people."
Shopkeeper Wang hurriedly bent down heavily at Jiang Chuhan and said, "Please Lord Jiang, how to make decisions for the grass people!"
”After some calculations in his heart just now, Jiang Chuhan was already confident, and his heart was already determined, and he raised his eyes slightly to look at Wang's shopkeeper, only to see that Wang Renfa was still sweating profusely, and couldn't help but be full of anxiety, looking at Jiang Chuhan with a longing expression.Jiang Chuhan had already made up his mind at this time, smiled faintly, and then said: "This matter, this official can't control it, as I said just now, the Department of Commerce is in charge of the Household Department, not to mention that the management of water transportation is also within the scope of the Department of Commerce. ”The shopkeeper Wang was suddenly anxious, his face turned red and he wanted to speak, only to see Jiang Chuhan wave his hand slightly, and then continued lightly: "This matter has not yet reached the time to be discussed, you tell those businessmen, let them wait for a while, I will think of a way." ”"Yes!
Be!!
The grass people have thanked Lord Jiang!
”Hearing that Jiang Chuhan did not refuse, seeing that things might still have a slight turnaround, the shopkeeper Wang suddenly did not dare to slack off, and even thanked him, and his joy was overflowing.After finishing speaking, Jiang Chuhan saw that the shopkeeper Wang's brows were furrowed, his face flushed, he didn't mean to leave for a while, and there seemed to be words in his throat that had not been exhausted, Jiang Chuhan couldn't help but smile and asked, "Shopkeeper Wang, do you have anything else?"
”"AhhThe shopkeeper Wang was slightly startled, his face turned red, and a pair of big hands kept tugging at the corners of his clothes, and he vomited for a long time, and then stammered: "I don't know what kind of woman Lord Jiang likes?"
”"Huh?"
Jiang Chuhan was suddenly a little depressed, did Wang Renfa check the household registration or pimp?
Even care about what kind of woman you like?
The shopkeeper Wang's face was full of smiles, but there was a little ugly meaning in that smile: "If you don't dislike Lord Jiang, the grass people just bought a pair of Persian Meiji at home, and they want to have a chest, a butt and an ass, or a foreign goods."
Why don't you send it to you quietly in the middle of the night?
”"you NND."
This Wang Renfa couldn't even say how to send a woman, Jiang Chuhan couldn't help laughing and scolding, suddenly pulled down a handful of leaves from the potted plant on the side, and smashed it towards Wang Renfa.A carriage slowly used to make use of the Yangzhou City Post House.I saw Qiu Feng setting up a carriage, holding a whip in his hand, and holding the reins of the horse, and walked onto the street of Yangzhou City without hurry.Accompanied by an unusually handsome young man.He is Gu Yanwu, and what Jiang Chuhan is going to is the dock.Jiangnan Commercial Division is located near the Yangzhou City Canal, the Grand Canal stretches for thousands of miles, the Sui Dynasty Emperor Yang spent a lot of money to build this Grand Canal for a long time, and it is still like a group of boats today, and it sails on the Grand Canal without hurry.However, it was this Grand Canal that was tainted by later generations of historical recorders, all of which couldn't help but make Jiang Chuhan a little sad.The construction of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal is suspected to be beneficial to the country and the people, so that the Yangtze River waterway can be effectively navigated from now on, starting from Beiping in the north and reaching Hangzhou in the south, with a total length of 1,747 kilometers.The Grand Canal passes through Beiping, Tianjin, Hebei, Shandong, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and communicates the Haihe River, the Yellow River, the Huai River, the Yangtze River, the Qiantang River, and other five major water systems."
The Commercial Division is located near the Yangzhou Wharf."
Gu Yanwu whispered to Jiang Chuhan in the curtain, "My lord is going, are you going to pay a private visit, or what?"
”"We're privately visiting."
Jiang Chuhan said lightly.Jiang Chuhan already had a plan in his heart, if he didn't pay for a private visit and wore an official uniform, he would have to beat gongs and drums.Microservice private visits, you can also save a lot of troubles, why not?
Since he was able to save so much trouble, Jiang Chuhan was also happy to be at ease, wearing a casual suit, and slowly got into the carriage with only Qiu Feng alone.Gu Yanwu nodded, and then stopped talking.After a long while, the Yangzhou wharf had gradually fallen into Qiu Feng's eyes, only to hear Qiu Feng's eyes slightly raised, and then said in a low voice: "My lord, the wharf is about to arrive." ”I saw a young man suddenly emerge from the carriage, looked at the dock that was full of people not far away, and then smiled slightly, and whispered to Qiu Feng: "Get out of the car, let's go to the dock." ”"Okay!"
Qiu Feng hurriedly jumped out of the carriage and tied the horse to a person's big tree, then Jiang Chuhan was in front, Qiu Feng and Gu Yanwu followed closely behind, took a step, and slowly walked towards the direction of Yangzhou Wharf.Yangzhou Wharf was full of people at this time, and boxes and boxes of goods were being unloaded from the cargo ship in the water, however, the strange thing was that Jiang Chuhan looked at it and didn't see a cargo ship loading goods."
My lord, Jiangnan Caoyun has suddenly increased its cost, please see, my lord, there is not a single cargo ship that is loaded."
Gu Yanwu said in a low voice.Jiang Chuhan couldn't help but nodded, didn't say anything, kept his feet, and walked straight in the direction of Yangzhou Wharf.The group of hard-working bitter haha-ha people at the dock were in full swing at this time, it was winter at this time, and as far as the eye could see, the hard-working hard-working bitter haha were shirtless one by one, showing their muscles one by one, sweating profusely and unloading the goods, Jiang Chuhan couldn't help but nod with satisfaction.Yangzhou Wharf is still a lively scene, although the cost of transportation has increased, fortunately, from the current point of view, these workers on the wharf have not been affected for the time being.At this moment, a heavy sigh suddenly came from Jiang Chuhan's side, which fell on Jiang Chuhan's ears, and it turned out to be unusually harsh!
As if with a strong sense of sadness and guilt, Jiang Chuhan hurriedly turned his face to look, only to see a white-haired old man beside him sighing heavily, then smiled bitterly, couldn't help but shake his head, and then slowly turned around and wanted to leave.
