Chapter 751 Canal
No - she can't die, if she dies, wouldn't that bastard want to marry a noble girl with a better background? Then, let her be half dead!
Empress Meng seemed to have seen the misery of the half-dead Mu Qingli, and felt a little relieved.
Zhou Yunshen needs to be busy with many things, and many relationships need to be maintained. Mu Qingli is much more relaxed. While disguised as a man, she wanders around the capital or around the capital while keeping an eye on the progress of the Zhao family.
Let's say that Zhao's intention to purchase goods this time is to scare off Xi's family, or to set a trap for Xi's family.
As soon as Zhao Xiang set off from the capital, he had already written a letter to send it to Hangzhou quickly, listing the goods list, and ordered the shopkeeper there to prepare the goods immediately.
He took a light boat and fast boat by himself, and arrived in Hangzhou City in only five or six days.
When he arrived, the needed goods had already been loaded on the ship, and the three large ships were fully loaded, and they could set off from the pier early the next morning.
When setting off the next day, Zhao Xiang looked at the three ships full of goods, and thought about the huge pile of silver piled up in white flowers. He felt a little bit tangled and heartbroken—a million taels. There is really a way, otherwise, if it loses another million taels, plus a compensation to the buyers who paid the deposit, the Zhao family business will probably close down.
Miss Na Mu didn't know what family background she was from, and she didn't care at all about the millions of silver from her mouth.
Shanxi? Is it the Shanxi he knew from the regional annals? It is obviously located in a remote, poor and uncivilized place with poor traffic, but there is such a wealthy family as Miss Mu there?
When Zhao Xiang got on the boat, he told everyone to be careful along the way, to cheer up, and when he returned to the capital, he would be rewarded a lot.
Everyone was excited and patted their chests to promise.
Mr. Zhao is a very down-to-earth person. If he said that there are many rewards, then there must be many rewards. This is definitely not a casually spoken vernacular.
In the backyard of the prince's hidden courtyard on the outskirts of the capital, in the dark night, a huge black shadow flapped its wings and flew down from the sky and landed in the courtyard.
A person jumped down from the back of the huge black shadow lightly, it was Yun Wu.
And the big black shadow yelled twice, who is it if it's not Da Mao?
Yun Wu patted Da Mao on the back lightly, smiled and comforted him twice, went to get meat and fresh fruit to feed it himself, and then went to rest.
At dawn the next day, he went back to the East Palace in Beijing and reported to the Crown Princess: The young master of the Zhao family had returned to the capital from Hangzhou with three full shipments. Two days later, they will pass through a section of river with quiet banks and curved waterways. If the Xi family wants to make a move, they will definitely choose that area.
Yun Wu couldn't help but sigh secretly, it's good to have big hairs around, not to mention how convenient it is to come and go! The quickest way to find out the news.
However, Yun Wu was a little puzzled. Even so, it was impossible for Da Mao and his wife to fly with a few people. Even if the princess got the news, so what?
Mu Qingli was not in a hurry, after hearing his report, she just nodded with a smile and said that she understood, so that he didn't have to go out of Beijing, and just watched the Xi family's movements with Yun Si.
On the Zhao family side, she will take care of it.
Riding a big hair, the next day Mu Qingli wore a green shirt and waited for Young Master Zhao's fleet on a wharf, and boarded the boat with a smile.
Young Master Zhao did not expect to meet her here, so he welcomed her onto the boat unexpectedly, and said with a wry smile: "Miss Mu, are you here alone? The Xi family is afraid—"
Mu Qingli was not afraid at all, and said with a smile: "I will take over the three ships from today. You and your entourage will disembark quietly, and go back to Beijing quickly by land! The boatmen on this ship will not need so many, so keep a few The one with the best water skills can take the helm, and everyone else will withdraw."
Young Master Zhao: "..."
"Miss Mu, what are you trying to do—" Eldest Young Master Zhao was at a loss as to what Mu Qingli wanted to do.
Mu Qingli smiled and said: "Don't worry, you just leave the ship quietly, and leave all other things to me. I guarantee that all the goods will be delivered to Beijing safely!"
Young Master Zhao smiled wryly. Seeing that Mu Qingli refused to speak, he naturally couldn't ask.
Seeing that she is so determined, think about it, there must be a reason for her determination.
This Miss Mu, who came out of nowhere, has a mystery all over her body, which is not something ordinary people like me can see through. If that is the case, then let her listen to her.
So, that night, Young Master Zhao took several entourages of Zhao's firm to disembark quietly, taking advantage of the night to leave quietly.
At the same time, the number of boatmen on the three ships was also reduced by more than half. Of course, the boatmen got a lot of severance pay when they left.
The ship continued to head towards the capital as if nothing had happened.
Because the cargo loaded is not light, the speed of the ship is not fast.
But no one knew that the cargo in the cargo holds of the three large ships had already been swapped by Mu Qingli.
All the cargo has already entered her space in a safe manner. At this moment, in the cargo hold, there are only large stones and bricks that she put in.
Sure enough, the Xi family did not let the Zhao family go.
In order to ensure nothing goes wrong, more and stronger manpower was dispatched this time.
His Second Highness's dream of becoming a prince was shattered at the last moment, and this was an almost foolish blow to the Meng family.
The patriarch of the Meng family, who was suffocated, became even more cowardly after hearing Master Xi's complaints. When will the Meng family be able to bully everyone?
It is God's will that they can't beat the crown prince. Could it be that they can't even beat a little-known Zhao family?
Could it be the other way around?
The head of the Meng family sent out a team of elites to teach the Zhao family a lesson, to see who dares to be arrogant!
There is also a reason for Dudu's preference for Zhao's business rather than others.
The Zhao family father and son are simply masters in the freight business. If they can grasp the business lines they have opened up, the information lines can be laid there steadily.
Acquiring the Zhao family's business is the first step, and the second step is to recruit the Zhao family's father and son for the Meng family's use.
If the Zhao family father and son can be used by the family, the power of the Meng family will definitely take a big step forward.
It has to be said that the Patriarch of the Meng family is quite accurate in seeing people.
It's just that the Meng family's calculation was good, but they stumbled at the first step.
The waterway I traveled on this day was the most difficult to navigate, and I didn’t go far in the day. I had to spend the night on a small pier next to a small village.
Generally speaking, ships traveling on the canal rarely spend the night on the small pier next to this small village.
It's just that the Zhao family's goods are too deep to sail fast, and they can't keep up with the big towns. They can't go to the village or shop, so they have to spend the night here.
