Return to Ming Dynasty as Prince Chapter 123: Ting Tao Crab Peeling
Yang Ling brought three hundred guards out of Beijing this time, all of them were Xiaoyong soldiers who were good at fighting in the pro-barracks. Each was equipped with a simple sword and a duan dagger. The 300 people were divided into three teams, each with a serial crossbow and a duan gun. And Longbow, unless there is an army riot, with these three hundred people, no one would ever want to hurt Yang Ling.
At this time, the guards personally selected by Wu Jie, the big in-house stall owner, Yang Ling is the soul of the in-house factory. Thousands of people up and down are in Yang Ling. How can Wu Jie be careless?
If Yang Ling didn't think it was too exciting, Wu Jie really wanted to equip him with a thousand men and horses on the boat, and then put up a few cannons.
Three hundred people were enough to ride in two huge ships, but this third huge ship carried goods that were transported to the south by the wealthy of Beijing. There are many princes and nobles in the capital. These big families range from hundreds to thousands of people. How much land can there be outside Beijing to feed them? These people have long been secretly engaged in commercial trade, and often take the official downwind boat by using family power.
Two days before Yang Ling started, Cheng Guo Gong’s son Zhu Heyi and Lu Ma Xue Huan came to the door to ask him to pick up the goods on his behalf, and they arrived at the place where their family at Cheng Guo Gong Mansion took them. Cheng Guogong helped Yang Ling a lot, so he sent his son with confidence, expecting that the Yang Ling will be sold to him.
Since Xue Huan was beaten to death by the female officer in Princess Ningqing’s mansion, the new female officer had learned lessons from the past. She did not dare to make things too difficult for their husband and wife. The couple interrogated the servants in the mansion, knowing that Yang Ling favored them to help them, and even treated him in her heart. Grateful, so taking his downwind boat for profit is second, but the main thing is to express gratitude and attach to friendship.
Yang Ling naturally agreed upon hearing this, and reminded him of his plan to win over the powerful in Beijing. Yang Ling took the initiative to suggest to the honorable officials in Beijing that they could help them carry goods, even Shouning Hou and Jianchang Hou Both brothers were enthusiastic about the lucrative profits that can be brought by a southern cruise. Houyan sent five carts of northern specialties that are in short supply in the south.
Yang Ling didn't make any trouble, and accepted them all. The Zhang family brothers saw him so ignorant. Very grateful to him. Of course, Yang Ling has his own selfish intentions. The more people's interests are tied to him, the more helpful it will be to his future plans. These people can also become his protective umbrella, and these royal relatives and ministers. Gongqing's relationship is of great benefit to him.
Now the officials of the Imperial Palace seem to be hibernating collectively, and there is no movement all day, but Yang Ling has not taken care of it. He has kept his mind, and has reported this to the Zhengde emperor to know in advance. And frankly admitted that he also transported some goods. The money earned should be used to bring some rare southern items to the emperor to show his heart.
Zhengde didn't know that Yang Ling was so "insidious". Hearing his confession, he was naturally very happy. Yang Ling pulled the emperor into the water and became the head of the smuggling group, and he was relieved, so that he would not be afraid of someone stabbing him in the back when he left Beijing.
Yang Ling is under the banner of the first head of the tax supervision department, and is ordered to inspect Nanzhili. The Minister of Korea and China does not know much about the corruption of the three major tax supervisors on Jiangnan, but Yang Ling has guessed that someone must give a letter to the three guarding eunuchs. I am afraid that the three major eunuchs in the local area are like the emperor. It is already ready to deal with them. Yang Ling, who knows nothing about the details, has no clue.
The trip of Jiangnan is more complicated than the battle between the capital and the capital. He lives there, and the three eunuchs have guarded Jiangnan for many years. He must have many eyes and eyes, and his strength is intertwined. Yang Ling hasn't forgotten how a dignified princess was bought and played by a servant of the family house by a small female official.
So he didn't dare to wait until he arrived, so the three eunuchs had already been prepared, so he sent a place to talk secretly and rushed to Jiangnan day and night. Monitor the whereabouts of the three guard eunuchs.
Gao Wenxin stood aside quietly looking at the pensive Yang Ling, straight nose, angular lips, tall and handsome eyebrows, well-proportioned body, there was something in his eyes that was not commensurate with his age when he was thinking. It's deep, and it's so heartbreaking when people look at it.
He has a temperament and eyes that are very different from those of his age. But when I think of Yang Ling's embarrassed blush when he was acupuncture for him, Gao Wenxin's lips can't help but a smile: Yang Ling's embarrassment made her feel uncomfortable. Now acupuncture has become her daily appreciation. A traditional show with embarrassed expressions on most of the factory's governors.
The thirty-mile waterway will arrive at the speed of a giant boat in just a short time. Standing at the bow of the ship, Yang Ling has seen the Palace Wharf. There are still a few smaller ships on the wharf slowly leaving. A short walk up the stone steps of the pier is a beautiful palace.
Yan'an on the canal must build a palace every other day, for the emperor to use as a lodging place when he leaves the capital for a tour of Nanjing. The emperor will of course not just find a house to live in.
However, although the palace on this route is expensive, it has to send troops to garrison, and there are servants in the palace to take care of it. The annual maintenance cost is extremely amazing, but it is of no use at all.
Except for Emperor Yongle who lived here in the past years, the later emperors were all bound by his own system to show the majesty of the emperor. They killed themselves and lived in the Forbidden City as a canary.
People often say that the shore of the land is the land of the king, but this king has no right to visit his country. The palace was left vacant, built and repaired, repaired and repaired, it lasted more than a hundred years. Several post houses were built not far from the palace. The royal family and other palaces, imperial envoys, and ministers all used the pier to stop and stay here.
Yang Ling turned around, Gao Wenxin narrowed the corner of her mouth and smiled when she saw it, and humbly lowered her elegant swan-like neck. Yang Ling had sharp eyes and saw the smile on her lips. This eldest girl had never dared to talk to him and naughty before, but since she was treated, she was kind of sincere and sincere when she first met. The respectful eyes are now gradually missing.
Sad, I miss the past. Yang Ling always feels that her smile is a little different from the past when she looks at her, but he can't help it: woman, far away is inferior, and near is disrespectful. He shows his **** all day and makes people feel it. Where does he have dignity and pretend to be a master.
Yang Ling snorted secretly, and said to Gao Wenxin: "Go, pack up your belongings, and prepare to disembark."
"Yes. Master!" Gao Wenxin agreed, and heard a bang when he was about to turn around. The hull shook violently, and Gao Wenxin slammed into Yang Ling's arms. Yang Ling was already unsteady, but when she fluttered again, the two suddenly fell into a ball.
Many of the fans on the ship fell to the ground without paying attention, but as soon as they fell to the ground, they immediately jumped up and drew out the dangling Pudao "knock" and threw it to the side of the ship, shouting: "Who would dare to attack the factory superintendent's seat ship?"
At this time, Fifty or Six Fanzi also held a knife with their backs, and surrounded the two Yang Ling with a meat shield, carefully looking around. Yang Ling was secretly surprised: "Did the East Factory send someone to plot against me?" He shouted nervously, "Don't panic. See what's going on?"
Gao Wenxin rushed into Yang Ling's arms. I was surprised that Yang Ling's hand was pressing on her towering plump chest, and she couldn't help but feel angry and ashamed. She opened her eyes a little angrily. Yang Ling was facing up to the sky and was arranging the prestige of the factory. Not only did she show no response to her gestures, it seemed that he didn't even realize that he was pressing on the girl's drum. On the chest, Gao Wenxin's heart suddenly felt disappointed.
This dumb loss is nothing. Gao Wenxin hates the itchy roots of his teeth, but dare not say anything. She hastily got up from him, and the ship has stabilized. A hundred households stood on the observation deck to see the situation clearly, the nervousness disappeared, and then he sternly shouted: "Blind your dog's eyes, why don't you know how to give way? Don't look at who is on the boat, disturbing the adults, I want Your head".
As soon as the voice of the hundreds of households in the factory fell, I heard a voice under the ship that was twice as loud as him, yelling in Shandong dialect: "You mother, I tickled the pendulum and broke my skin. Gee. It hurts, how am I going to drive the mud? Yeah! My mother, what about Celestial Master? Where did Celestial Master Zhang fall?"!
His voice is really loud enough, Yang Ling heard clearly, and when he heard the three words Celestial Master Zhang, he also bluffed him, and he quickly got up. I ran to the side of the ship and looked down. I saw that the stern of a two-mass smaller brig had been hit and shattered. The river was pouring into the cabin, the rear stalk had already begun to sink, and the front was up.
Several black tower-like boatmen were running on the boat in a panic, looking for something, and couldn't see who was swearing. I saw a thin, gentle scholar holding the mast and shouted: "Don't look for it, Celestial Master has fallen into the river, go down and fish!"
A boatman looks like a head, he slapped his thigh vigorously, and shouted: "Old dick, hurry down!" The big guys couldn't even take off their clothes, "pumping" underground. The water.
Several boatmen came from the water below the stern. The high bow of the boat could not be searched for a while. Yang Ling lay on the bow and saw it clearly. Seeing that the bow was floating under the water, all the hair was floating, and he quickly shouted: "In Bow, on the bow, hurry, hurry, who knows the water? Hurry down and save people!"
Although the fanzi on the boat is a northerner, some of them are well-watered. They quickly lost their Pudao and jumped into the water. After a while, two well-watered people came up with one person. Yang Ling said with joy, "I found Celestial Master. ?"
The man was wearing a blue robes, the crown of the road was nowhere to be found, and his long hair was drenched in water, covering his face, as if he had fainted. Two fans stepped on the water, one left and the other supported him. He didn't even move. A fan wiped the water channel on his face: "My lord, this man is a woman, not Celestial Master."
Yang Ling heard a heartbeat. I heard that some evil Taoists use women as their pots to practice how to harvest yin and nourish yang. Is the dignified Celestial Master Zhang the same?
Several boatmen who are very watery heard the greeting from here, and they swam over and plunged into the water. After a while, a boatman dragged a man with a green robe out and shouted: "In this mud, in this mud!"
Yang Ling couldn’t think too much, and quickly asked people to put down the ropes, first tied the unconscious Celestial Master Zhang and the female Taoist priest to pull them up, and then got everyone else up again. At this time, the Texas Guards on the distant dock Commander Liu also saw the collision between the two ships and hurriedly rushed to the rescue by himself.
Knowing that the little Dao Tong next to Celestial Master Zhang is a woman, it is naturally inconvenient to rescue her in front of others. Gao Wenxin hurriedly asked people to carry her into the cabin and rescue her by herself.
Liu commanded to the Yang Ling ship and saved the gift. He hurriedly saw Yang Ling, and the two gathered around Celestial Master Zhang, who was pale and unconscious. Legend has it that Celestial Master Zhang is omnipotent in heaven and earth. The supernatural powers are very great, and they are all of good rank in the fairy palace, but he did not think that the Helong King did not give him face. He filled him abruptly, Yang Ling He Liu commander squatted aside and watched Fanzi squeeze his abdomen, a stream of clear water overflowed from his mouth.
After a long while, Zhengyi's heir teaches Xu Chong Jing Cheng Xian Hong Zhan real person Zhang Yanshuo woke up quietly, Yang Ling and Commander Liu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
The little real man opened his eyes, and seemed to feel that Celestial Master fell into the water, and it was a bit embarrassing to have a few boatmen pressing and pressing the ground to save his life. He was so bewildered that he couldn't see the person in front of him clearly, and he laughed and said: "Pan Dao has already predicted that there will be a disaster in mid-September. It turned out to be today. Hahaha...".
Yang Ling touched his nose. Secretly cursed in my heart: "This magic stick!"
Suddenly he remembered that there was a pretty little girl named Fu Baodi in the cabin, and he couldn't help adding: "This bastard!"
*
The night was dimmed, Zheng Baihu walked into the cabin and saw that the factory supervisor was playing chess at Celestial Master Zhang, and he stood up and waited while bowing. Yang Ling frowned, stared at the chessboard in front of him, pondering for a while, seeming to be uncertain.
Zheng Baihu glanced secretly, and suddenly noticed that the tall and beautiful maidservant of the factory supervisor was standing behind the factory supervisor, leaning slightly and seemed to look at the chessboard with interest. But that slender hand was scratching quietly on the adult's back.
Gao Wenxin's lush white fingers struck the ground on the back of Yang Ling unhappily, and with few strokes, Zheng Baihu saw clearly that it was a "cannon two flat one". Once the girl finished the stroke, he saw the factory supervisor. He raised his eyebrows, as if he had just thought of a good chess move, he picked up the cannon and slapped it. The chess game was really neat and confident.
Zheng Baihu sweated secretly. He turned his eyes quickly to avoid embarrassment for the adults. Unexpectedly, he saw the short and thin middle-aged scribe for more than 30 years and stood beside Celestial Master Zhang with a smile, with one hand writing on the back of Celestial Master. Zheng Baihu couldn't help but look at Supervisor Yangchang and Celestial Master Zhang in amazement. He didn't understand why these two puppets were serious.
Every time Gao Wenxin wins the stinky chess basket Yang Ling, she is happy for a long time. It seems that Yang Ling has something to be proud of. She would not want to make him happy by deliberately losing to Yang Ling. But seeing Yang Ling repeatedly defeated by Celestial Master Zhang along the way, this big girl feels uncomfortable. It feels like her own child has beaten it on her own. Why are you outsiders? , So he simply helped Master Yang cheat.
After being killed for a few days, I got Celestial Master Zhang. After learning from the pain, the chess skill has improved by leaps and bounds. Gao Wenxin expected that the steward Liao Liao next to him was secretly helping him. This time, he also competed with him and became Yang. The factory superintendent and Celestial Master Zhang fought openly, and the little maid fought secretly with Guan Liao.
When Gao Wenxin saw the opponent's move, he immediately wrote "Two horses retreat four" on the back of Yang Ling, and a smile of joy appeared at the corners of his mouth, "Two horses drink the spring"! The sneak attack was successful, and in the next three consecutive steps, the opponent would definitely be killed. The Celestial Master Zhang's army was suppressed by the artillery and could not withdraw.
Liao Guanshi stared at it for a long while, looked at Gao Wenxin and sighed, but there was no more sound. Celestial Master Zhang knew it, hehe smiled and said: "I lost!"
Yang Ling glanced at Gao Wenxin, Gao Wenxin blinked, Yang Ling chuckled, and then asked Zheng Baihu: "What's the matter?"
Zheng Baihu pretended not to see the eyebrows between the adult and the pretty maidservant, he bowed and said, "My lord, the ship has arrived in Shanghai town. Will it be anchored here tonight?"
"Oh? Arrived in Shanghai?" Yang Ling was surprised, and quickly opened the curtain to look out. I saw a starry sky above, a desolate below, and some restaurants on the riverside, but in the distance. There were few residents, and they were nothing like the city he had in mind. Yang Ling couldn't help but disappointed: "This is Shanghai?"
Government Liao was still the factory supervisor. He thought it was shabby and smiled and said, "My lord, although this town looks a little desolate, the wine and food are not flavorful. Why don't we stop the boat and go for a walk? Tired".
Yang Ling said: "Okay, let's get off the boat." He glanced around and said to Celestial Master Zhang: "Where's Lingmei. Ask her to go and use some wine and vegetables."
Celestial Master Zhang shook her head and said: "She said that she was not feeling well today, so ignore her. When I return, I will bring her some food."
This Celestial Master Zhang was after the emperor’s wedding. He stayed in Beijing to visit relatives and friends. There were so many relatives and old friends of Chengguo’s family. It took more than half a month for each family to go to a banquet. In addition, Celestial Master rarely came to the capital. These relatives and friends inevitably asked him to help. It took about two months to look at Feng Shui and look at the face.
Wu Jiyuan, a wealthy man in Wuzhong, sent a housekeeper to follow him before he went to Beijing. He urged the Celestial Master Jingshi and his entourage to go to Suzhou to pray for the old man of the Wu family. Although Wu's family is remote from Mount Longhu. But it is known to be pious and honest. More than a hundred years ago, Zhu Yuanzhang restrained Buddhism and Taoism most severely. The incense on Mount Longhu was dim and life was difficult. The Wu family secretly sent someone to donate the sesame oil money to help hundreds of Mount Longhu disciples tide over the difficulties. It can be described as the great benefactor of Celestial Master.
The predecessors of this mountain and one mansion have such a connection. The little Celestial Master was so kind, so he had to come with him. Unexpectedly, he was hit by the Yang Ling ship just after sailing out of the Dezhou Palace Wharf. Yang Ling also felt guilty and simply invited They came together in an official boat.
Fanzi yelled the boatman to drive to the shore and put down the pedals. A few people got off the boat and chose a small shop. This small shop is really unique, the hotel is actually a small wine boat, moored by the river and gently rippling with the waves.
At this place, at this time, the most important flavor is to eat crab. Manager Liao called Yindi Chuanniang to warm up two pots of wine and smiled: "The west wind is blowing, crab feet are itchy, and now autumn is refreshing. It is the crab season, Mr. Yang, Celestial Master, please taste the flavor of this place."
Eating female crabs in September and bear crabs in October, the ship’s lady served large plates of female crabs. Before Yang Ling ate crabs, she chopped open and stabbed a chopstick. What skills do you know there? Seeing that Celestial Master Zhang and Guan Shi Liao came to eat the whole crab in an orderly manner, I felt a little hesitant.
Gao Wenxin was careful and thoughtful, and saw that the master’s expression was different. He immediately took a crab, opened the crab bucket, broke off the crab's foot, quickly picked the crab sac and gills, and removed the hexagon with the crab tip The heart and the foregut picked the white, tender and fresh crab meat into a bowl, and presented it to Yang Ling: "Master, this product does not need to be dipped in **** vinegar. The original flavor is more mellow, please taste it."
Liao Guanshi looked at such a knowledgeable and witty girl, and couldn't help but admire: "Good night flower explanation, quiet night wine full of bottles, adults have a shameless taste!"
Although Guan Shi Liao's words were compliments, he made Gao Wenxin's identity a little ambiguous. Gao Wenxin felt a little frivolous, and his face blushed, a little sulking.
Yang Ling saw it and quickly turned off the topic: "I just played chess, but I forgot to drink tea. I feel thirsty now. Boatman, come to make a pot of tea?"
Gao Wenxin listened and said softly: "Master, although this crab is delicious, it is cold. I will ask Chuan Niang to bring a bowl of brown sugar and **** soup to drink. It is to quench thirst and replenish the body, so don't drink it. Tea".
Guanshi Liao laughed: "My lord is a northerner, and he is not good at wine but good tea? It's okay to drink less." He said carefully and took out a cloth bag from his arms, and said with a smile: " The little one invites the adults to taste this superb tea. As long as this bag of tea is less than one or two, it costs four taels of silver. I still get it after asking for it. Hehe, but there is a good thing that has no market!"
Said he called the ship’s lady, told her to send the cup, pinched a bunch of them and put them in the cup one by one.
A farmer’s family with one or two silvers can be used for a year’s life. The two tea leaves cost four taels of silver, or is it obtained through an entrusted relationship. How much money does it take to purchase it normally? Yang Ling was stunned and asked, "What kind of tea is this, so expensive?"
Guardian Liao said: "This is Longjing in front of the rain in the West Lake Benshan. Let's not hide it from the adults. Xiaodi has saved some furniture while working in Wu Mansion, but even if Xiaodi is willing to spend money, it is difficult for such a good tea. Please".
Yang Ling remembers that the future generations seem to be like Longjing tea all over the street. Is it so expensive now that there are very few imbalances between supply and demand? Infected by Yu Yong, he is now a businessman. He immediately paid attention to the profitable industries.

Yang Ling immediately said with joy: "Is this plant too little or difficult to plant? Liao Guanshi is a native of Suzhou and Hangzhou, so it is difficult to buy it?"
Liao Guanshi smiled and said: "It is the local wealthy merchants in Hangzhou, and they can't ask for it. Hehe, Mo Qinghe and Mo Gonggong sent people to the tea garden every day. No money of tea is allowed to go out. Anyone who steals tea , All fifty big shackles will be shown to the public for three days. Think about it, who can still drink it?"
Mo Qinghe? Mo Gonggong in charge of the taxation of rice and tea? Isn't this one of the three guard eunuchs where I have come to investigate? He is only responsible for taxes. Even if this tea is a tribute tea, it should be supervised by the prefect of Hangzhou. How could he directly send someone to take over the tea garden?
Yang Ling was suspicious in his heart, calmly on the face, and pretended to ask indifferently: "Should Longjing tribute tea be managed by the prefect of Hangzhou? It turns out that Mr. Mo also has the right to supervise."
Liao Guanshi proudly said: "The tea plantations where Longjing Benshan tea is produced are produced in Xianrenchong, Huangxijian, Wumeijian, and Mengdu Bay. There are only a dozen acres of mountainous land in total, which can produce less than 300 or 400 catties a year. It’s not enough as a tribute. Longjing products on the market are products from several counties near Hangzhou, pretending to be Longjing mountain tea, which tastes much worse.
Gonggong Mo was worried that someone would sell tribute tea in order to make huge profits, so he sent people from other places to supervise these tea gardens. Even the prefects of Hangzhou could not get involved. Nowadays, all the best Yuqian Longjing is enshrined in the capital according to the emperor’s instructions. A royal mansion, after April 8th, the tea from the place of origin is allowed to be sold in Hangzhou for tax collection~IndoMTL.com~My nephew is a trusted steward under Mo Gonggong. Knowing that I am good for tea, I ask Mo Gonggong to kindly ask. The father-in-law only took out a little bit. Although this is not the best emperor's tip, it is almost the same. Please try it, my lord."
Yang Ling smiled faintly, not paying much attention to it. Hearing what he said is so mysterious, as if it is hard to find in the world, I did not drink the tribute Huangjian's best Yuqian tea at Palace of Heavenly Purity Dongnuange, which is higher than yours, but these words naturally have no meaning The need for Liao to show off.
He inadvertently took a cup of tea and opened the lid. Under the light, the water was clear and the color was emerald green. There were a few tea leaves floating in it, and a faint fragrance drifted out to refresh the heart. But I feel that it is elegant, and I feel that the fragrance is endless, although it is not strong, it is like the fragrance of the flowers and plants in the three spring fields, which lingers for a long time.
Although the tea tea color in this crude cup of water is the same as the best **** in the palace, the aroma is incomparable at all. Yang Ling held the teacup in his hand and felt stunned there.
