Chapter 294 Get online with parents and adults
Huo Xi couldn't help thinking about it.
Fan people are very fond of porcelain from our dynasty, and most of the goods shipped back to Fan country are also porcelain.
However, there were many kilns in the Wei Dynasty, and all the kilns were opened at the port. Even if she reduced the number of middlemen, she bought porcelain directly from the kilns and sold them to Fanren, and she didn't make much money.
Of course, if it goes directly to the sea and is shipped to Fanguo, it is of course a huge profit. But she is not yet able to go to sea.
Can you make a fuss about porcelain? Of course, it is necessary to reduce middlemen. If we can produce utensil-shaped decorations that meet the taste and aesthetics of the Fan people, will we be able to sell them at a better price?
Wen Xingning was chatting warmly with Yang Fu, when he saw Huo Xi next to him looking straight at him, he had goosebumps all over his body.
Fortunately, he is not as handsome as the Wind Clan brother, otherwise he would have thought that the other party had taken a fancy to him.
Being spotted by a half-grown boy, Wen Xingning shuddered twice.
He is not the brother of the Wind Clan. In their Yuezhou, wherever Brother Feng went, men and women followed him, because he was so handsome, the uncle would not let him go out, and only let him burn porcelain at home.
Huo Xi was unaware of his mental construction, and after thinking about the possibility of drawing pictures and asking someone to fire porcelain, he became even more enthusiastic about Wen Xingning.
Going out, there are many friends and many paths. The family in front of me has been making kilns for several generations. It can be said that he has a very rich background. So, more enthusiasm for him.
Wen Xingning was very happy to be coaxed by his uncle and nephew, and talked to Yang Fu and Huo Xi about many things about the kiln and porcelain.
It was still an appointment, and when he went to the capital in the future, everyone would have dinner and drink together.
It was not until the moon was in the middle of the sky that he returned to his own boat. Huo Xi and Yang Fu arranged for the night watchmen to sleep in the cabin.
The Huo family was concerned all night, guarding against water thieves all night, so that they could spend the night safely.
I don’t know if there were only so many water thieves in this wave, they were all wiped out, or the organization lost a large number of manpower, and they couldn’t be slowed down all at once, but they allowed everyone to spend the night safely.
Huo Erhuai looked at the large and small boats near his home, feeling a little worried.
"Xi'er, I didn't expect so many boats to know that our family fought against water pirates yesterday. What if water pirates find out about us from others and take revenge on us?"
Huo Xi comforted him: "It's okay, dad. Can the evil be suppressed? It's because the honest people who have been stolen and robbed are afraid and dare not deal with the bad guys, which makes those water thieves even more arrogant. It's just to see one suppress the other, and die Press them down, beat them to the point of fear, so there are not so many water thieves, and this trade route can be smooth."
Huo Erhuai sighed.
I heard that there are more pirates at sea. How come there are so many people who get nothing for nothing? There are bandits blocking the road on land, pirates on the water, and pirates on the sea. It is really not easy for a businessman to ask for a bowl of food.
Seeing that Huo Erhuai was still frowning, Huo Xi comforted him: "When we go back, my uncle and I will find some skilled fighters, and we will bring more people with us when we go out next time. I don't know when I will come again next time, and I can Be safe for a while."
Yang Fu was also on the sidelines to comfort Huo Erhuai.
Looking at Huo Xi again, she felt that next time she should not let Xi'er come out, if something happened to her, the child might cry to death.
As soon as the sky became clear, the Huo family's boat set off with its two cargo ships, and the Wen family's boat followed closely behind.
The boats parked nearby, seeing the Huo family's boat moving, also drew out shelters one after another.
Not only merchant ships are afraid of water thieves, passenger boats are also very afraid of water thieves.
These water thieves are extremely vicious, not only asking for money, but also robbing people. Human trafficking can be found in any dynasty or generation. Sell it to the mine, or smuggle it out to sea, and you can get a lot of silver.
Those passenger boats were not able to protect themselves when they encountered water thieves. It will be hard to see a ship that is fully prepared and capable of fighting water thieves, so it is natural to follow it from afar.
Huo Xi was worried all the way, but Shangyong's Li family finally let go of his worry.
Originally, the Xiang family near the Li family relied on their own wealth and was a local landlord. There were also a few scholars in the family who were well-known in the local area. Son Xiang Dafu.
All kinds of coercion and temptation made the children of the Li family afraid to go out.
It was also Huo Xi who sent money to the Li family once, and sent some good things from time to time, and taught the Li family a skill to make money. The Li family sold velvet flowers and started to operate with the money.
Shangyong County is located on the edge of Sichuan and Shu in the southwest, and the place is remote. But no matter how remote it is, it is still a county. Even if it is a lower county, there is a county government.
The adults in the county don't know the situation of the exiled prisoners under their jurisdiction?
Shangyongzhi County, is a mediocre, poor family background, no connections.
Of course he knows that there is one under his rule, who used to be the master Jijiu of the Imperial Academy of the capital, and was exiled here. But he was a coward, and he didn't dare to have any contact with the exiled prisoners.
Until he was so worried about his son's feces-like homework that he couldn't eat or sleep well, and when he was looking for a famous teacher everywhere, the shopkeeper Bai of Jixiang Shop found him.
pointed out a famous road to him.
The treasurer of Jixiang Shop Zibai said to him: "My lord, you don't use the next Guozijian's sacrificial wine, and look for famous teachers everywhere. Isn't this because you are in Baoshan and don't know treasures?"
"Those famous teachers are all tempered, and they spend a lot of money. How can this former sacrificial wine be at ease? He is now down and out, and it's not because he listens to what you say."
When the parents heard this, they patted their thighs, isn’t it? The Guozijian sacrificed wine, which is full of mediocrity. Is there anyone with more knowledge?
Immediately recruited the master, and posted a letter to the door.
Because Li Shimian couldn't leave the place of exile, he negotiated and asked the servants to bring the articles written by the young master from time to time, and let the former Li Jijiu give some pointers.
There are also two days in January, let the young master ask for advice in person.
The shopkeeper Bai of the Li family might as well have actually done this, and he was so happy that he didn't know what to say.
Facing shopkeeper Bai, he almost knelt down and kowtowed, and shopkeeper Bai was so frightened that he helped him up: "If it is possible, can the adults also give advice on my children's studies?"
"Thanks to Shopkeeper Bai for being considerate, just let your little one come."
So everyone is happy.
The Xiang family was waiting for the Li family to bow their heads and beg for mercy. They were dumbfounded when they thought that they would turn around and hook up with the county magistrate.
My family is just a landlord with some money, can I wrestle with the magistrate?
Fearing that the Li family would sue the county magistrate, they bought back a poor girl within two days and paid homage to Xiang Dafu.
And Mrs. Ma also knew that his family was down and out now, and anyone with a little influence could step on it, so he began to teach the little ladies and women in the nearby villages how to make velvet flowers.
Let everyone come to Li's house to get the materials back to make it, and send it back when it is finished, and the Li family will send it to the shopkeeper Bai for sale.
This has won the love of the nearby villagers.
Coupled with the fact that Li Shimian and his son gave advice on the homework of the students around them from time to time, the situation of the Li family improved a lot.
On Huo Xi's side, they sailed on the Yangtze River for five days, and then they entered Beijing in half a day.
See you tomorrow
