Chapter 556: Prince's Revenge:
Father Wang was pretending to be serious. After all, in front of his son, who was always serious, he felt that he had to have the aura of being a father, otherwise how could he teach his son a lesson.
Hearing what Wang Yuefeng said so calmly, he was so frightened that Father Wang almost choked to death on a mouthful of tea. He coughed several times, then looked at Wang Yue with a resentful look, and hurriedly explained, " Don't think too much. When your grandfather was a hostage, your great-grandfather only asked him to live well and had no other requirements at all. Later, when the Southern Tang Dynasty in Fujian was conquered, Wu Yue took the opportunity to capture Fuzhou, and great-grandfather Yin was suppressed. Before leaving Gusu, I asked my cronies to give the last strength and some treasures in their hands to your grandfather. This is to leave some things for our family to protect ourselves. Your grandfather also had treasures, and later he could slowly build up his business. Become a big one. As for those dead soldiers, they have always been on standby in the mountain village of Wenzhou, and have always been funded by the Wang family. Your grandfather and I have never dispatched them. You are an official now. If you can subdue them, It's your help. After all, we businessmen are very discriminated against in the Song Dynasty."
Wang Yue was speechless. The atmosphere had already reached this point, but his father told him this. This kind of turning point was really big, that's all. Aren't you afraid that readers will scold you if you are neither good nor bad?
Moreover, the commercial atmosphere in the Song Dynasty was the worst. Are there any officials who do not do business? Don't think that if you have people looking after the shop, it doesn't count as doing business. Isn't this deceiving others?
Looking at his father, whose face turned a little red due to emotion, Wang Yue couldn't argue with his father about this, so he answered depressedly, "It's been decades, and the lives of those dead soldiers that grandpa took over back then My grandson is probably about the same as me. Dad, are you sure they will listen to me?"
Dad Wang was also very embarrassed. He was not sure either. He was also afraid that the other party would seek wealth and harm, so he did not take any action. This was not because he was thinking about Wang Yue. You are already an official, and you are still a parent official in Wenzhou. How can you still deal with a few bastards?
You must know that those dead men have taken decades of funding from the Wang family in vain, and they have to pay something. However, it is difficult to tell this to their son, so he said nonchalantly, "Then it depends on my son's ability. "
Wang Yue finally understood that his father meant for him to use his power to overwhelm others, and he was prepared for the worst. No wonder his father never suffered much losses in business, and his relationship was about stability. Psychology is at play.
Wang Yue thought for a while and felt that if he became the county magistrate and brought the government officials to him, the other party would not appreciate the compliment, so he nodded and said, "I can only do my best. Is the evidence of our family's support over the years still there?" "
Dad Wang was relieved to see that Wang Yue was really ready to give it a try, and he quickly sent someone to get the certificates. You must know that the bad things Mr. Wang left behind were originally left to him, but now he has finally succeeded in passing the blame. Isn't that what his son does?
Wang Yue didn't know what Father Wang was planning. The reason why he said he would try his best was because of his official status. In the Song Dynasty, when the gentry was the world, no one dared to openly fight among officials unless they wanted to rebel. And with Wang Cai, a reckless man, he could be polite first and then fight. If he couldn't fight, he could still run away. If he went back and brought the government servants back, even if he couldn't win people's hearts, he could still get some money back.
...
After a few days of rest at home, Wang Yue took a few servants and Wang Cai to Wenzhou to take up the post. It was not that he was eager to become an official, but he was dealing with the famous ladies brought back by his mother every day, which made Wang Yue a little bit. Headache.
Before going to Wenzhou, Wang Yue planned to visit Zhao Pan'er, but when he came near Zhao Pan'er's home, through the not-so-tight fence, he saw Zhao Pan'er and Ouyang at a glance.
Ouyang's full name is Ouyang Xu. He doesn't know what he has to do with Ouyang Xiu. He doesn't know what his literary talent is. Just looking at his appearance, Wang Yue can only say that he is just a pretty boy.
Zhao Pan'er seemed to feel something where Wang Yue's sight was. She happened to raise her eyes and glance outside the fence, and also saw Wang Yue looking at the roadside.
Zhao Pan'er saw how Wang Yue and the boy were dressed, as well as the luggage on the horses they were holding, and knew that the two were about to travel far. She thought of Sun Sanniang's inquiry, and knew that Wang Yue was preparing to take office, and was probably coming. Farewell.
Just looking at Ouyang Xu who was studying seriously, Zhao Pan'er hesitated for a moment, pretended not to notice, and then lowered his head and said something to Ouyang who was studying. Just looking at his expression, it was obvious that he was absent-minded.
Wang Yue was very impressed when he saw this scene. Knowing that if he pestered her now, Zhao Pan'er would be disgusted, so he stopped looking at it and went back to find Sun Sanniang. After leaving a few books and copybooks, he hurriedly Went to work.
Sun Sanniang looked at several books and didn't know what the content was, but looking at the beautiful fonts and the strong fragrance of ink, she also knew how precious this thing was.
Sun Sanniang secretly decided in her heart that before Zhao Pan'er got married, she would pester Zhao Pan'er every day. Sun Sanniang would do what she said.
In fact, most ancient people were quite trustworthy, or they had known for a long time that Wang Yue was rich and powerful, or his parents were officials, and they had already been prepared in their hearts. When Wang Yue came to the door, the descendants of the deceased soldiers, after confirming their identities, sent their young men to follow Wang Yue.
Wang Yue knew that the current emperor was a man who loved success but was timid. He was not willing to put all his wealth and life on such an emperor. He felt too insecure.
You must know that the emperor's health was not very good at this time, and the struggle between the Houdang and the so-called Qingliu was really not fun.
It was not that he was afraid that the emperor would kill him in anger, but that he was worried about the courtiers who would do anything to fight for the party, and he had no brothers who could imitate Wang Anshi in playing two-for-one.
For safety reasons when going out, Wang Yue must have his own power. Otherwise, it will be difficult to fight back after being beaten. We can't wait for him to achieve his magic. How long will he have to endure?
It's just that the ocean-going trade left by Mr. Wang was abandoned after his death. There were a few shipyards, but the business was getting worse day by day.
Wang Yue decisively closed down all the small shipyards and brought all the manpower to Wenzhou. He used these manpower to open a large shipyard and continued to train sailors to adapt to new types of building ships.
The reason why Wang Yue did this was because he felt that Mr. Wang's death was strange. After all, when the lucky old man went to sea, the old captain said that there would be no storms in the near future.
From the fact that Mr. Wang, the rich second generation, behaved in such a cowardly manner, we can see a problem. It seems that some people do not want the Wang family to do maritime business. Mr. Wang's death was only because of profit.
Now that Wang Yue has traveled through time, he must find out the truth and take revenge. It seems that he has not played the role of revenge.
Therefore, Wang Yue plans to use his new technology to fight against the Japanese pirates at sea. As long as he controls the southeast coast, it will not be that difficult to find the real culprit.
...
Wang Yue has a lot of experience in running the government. The weather has been going well for three years, and taxes have increased. In addition, Wang Yue's money supply has been in place. It just happened to catch up with the evaluation season. When Wang Yue was taking the evaluation, I got an excellent grade and was greatly praised by Ke Zheng, the Prime Minister of the dynasty.
The most commendable thing is that the pirates who have been active near the southeast coast in the past two years have constantly intercepted and killed ships coming and going, but they have never intercepted and killed merchant ships going out to sea in Wenzhou.
According to the accounts of people who escaped from the pirates, it turned out that the pirates admired Wang Qingtian's name and gave Wenzhou some face.
As for Wang Qingtian's name, he thought that there might be Bao Qingtian in this world, so he put some effort into solving the case and wanted to compete in the future.
Wang Yue was quite unique in solving the case, and he easily won the reputation of Wang Qingtian, and everyone in the Song Dynasty knew him as the Qingtian Grand Master.
There may also be other unknown reasons, combined with Wang Yue's reputation as an upright and upright Wang Qingtian, that made Wang Yue, who was originally planning to serve for six years, be promoted to the fifth rank of Dali Temple Shaoqing in Beijing.
In the past three years, Wang Cai has been following Wang Yue. He worked conscientiously and even got the position of head catcher. After learning that Wang Yue was going to be transferred to Kyoto, he decisively gave up his current position and served as Wang Yue's. The guard followed Wang Yue shamelessly.
What Wang Yue didn't expect was that in the past three years, his piracy business had grown bigger and bigger, and he had the momentum to swallow up the southeastern sea area. Song's trick was just like the one that forced Wu Yue to invade.
The main reason why the pirate team accidentally grew bigger was that there were too many people who could not survive in ancient times.
Under Wang Yuerang's slogan, "Be a pirate for a few years, and then go home and become a rich man." The pirate team has grown tremendously in the past two years, occupying many places in Ryukyu, and Ryukyu officials have to look at the pirates' faces to act.
It's just a pity that Wang Yue couldn't find any clues, and he couldn't find out who might be the murderer of his grandfather. It seemed like it was really an accident.
Before Wang Yue left office, in order to prevent accidents, he asked the shipyard in Wenzhou to be moved to Ryukyu. After cleaning up the tail, he returned to Qiantang.
Three years later, Qiantang has become more prosperous. After settling back home, he went out to play with Wang Cai. After all, transportation was not very convenient in ancient times. After leaving Qiantang this time, even if I am here in my hometown, I don’t know how many years it will be before I come back next time.
In fact, Wang Yue's main purpose was to visit Zhao Pan'er. After all, he had a three-year appointment and was about to arrive.
The two of them walked around. Wang Cai saw that Wang Yue was a little absent-minded, so she winked and said, "Sir, I asked about it. Zhao's Tea Shop in Qiantang is quite good now, and the proprietress is also a stunning lady. I wonder if you want to go and have a cup of tea." ?"
Wang Yue saw a black line on his forehead. Looking at Wang Cai's weird look, he knew that the so-called Zhao's Tea Shop was actually run by Zhao Pan'er. He didn't want to be too anxious in front of his men, so he just nodded lightly. Wang Cai nodded and said, "Lead the way."
Seeing that Wang Yue agreed, Wang Cai breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that he was right. He hadn't heard Wang Yue mention Zhao Pan'er to him in the past three years. Not married for many years, he thought Wang Yue had changed his mind.
The two of them had not walked long, and at a lake not far from Zhao Pan'er's house, they saw a wooden sign among the willows, which said Zhao's Tea Shop.
Wang Yue ignored Wang Cai, whose eyes were darting around. He took the lead and entered the tea house. When he saw the woman greeting him, it was Zhao Pan'er. He quickly saluted and said with a smile, "Mrs. Zhao is well. "
Zhao Pan'er was stunned for a moment. She hadn't seen Wang Yue in three years. The scholar who was a little thin at the time was now full of nobility, which made her feel dazed. She was restrained by the little deer's bumping mood. He smiled and said, "Prince, sir, are you here for tea? Please invite me inside."
Wang Yue saw that Zhao Pan'er was quite distant, so he knew that she had misunderstood. After all, Wang Yue had not contacted him in three years, and there was a high probability that he would let this girl I think it was just a joke at the beginning, and it is understandable that the girl would be angry because of it.
Wang Yue was very surprised by Zhao Paner's reaction. After all, this reaction showed that this woman had her own shadow in her heart. He explained with a smile, "I still remember our agreement back then. We haven't married for three years now, and the three-year deadline is just around the corner." When I was about to mature, I happened to be transferred to Beijing. I just came back from Wenzhou, and I will go to Bianjing soon. I heard that the tea from Zhao's Tea Shop is very fragrant, so I came here to taste it."
Zhao Pan'er's expression softened. Unexpectedly, This man really hadn't married for three years, which made her feel a little less aggrieved.
You must know that since getting the benefit of Wang Yue, Sun Sanniang and Fu Zifang have taken turns to be by her side, making her and Ouyang always have outsiders present, which is somewhat awkward. She was a little resentful towards Wang Yue, but seeing how sincere he was, she stopped caring about him. Anyway, Ouyang was coming back soon, so maybe Wang Yue would stop bothering him by then.
Thinking of this, Zhao Pan'er smiled and said, "You are a guest. Please come in, sir. I will serve you the best tea and the best snacks." Wang Yue smiled unconsciously. This woman still wanted to be with him
. He kept his distance and wanted to make money from him, but he was really greedy and cute. He shook his head helplessly and said with a smile, "Okay, I'll trouble Miss Zhao." After Wang Yue finished speaking, he stopped pestering and talked to Wang Cai
. We entered the tea shop together, found a seat by the window and sat down.
As soon as Wang Cai sat down, he immediately winked and said, "Ms. Zhao is not married yet. Master, do you want to propose marriage again?"
Wang Yue shook his head helplessly and said in a voice that didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Let's forget it. You have forgotten our three-year agreement. As long as the three-year period is up and Ouyang does not come back to marry her, it will not be too late for me to come and propose marriage."
In fact, Wang Yue didn't say in his heart that in the worst case, he would steal a marriage, or in the worst case, he would steal someone and become the Pirate King.
Wang Cai saw that Wang Yue was confident, as if Lady Zhao was in his hands, so he tentatively said, "Since Lady Zhao likes Ouyang, why don't you marry her quickly? Why wait until now? Since you want to marry a Jinshi and become an official Madam, why didn’t you choose Brother Wang? I really don’t understand. Is this also a bet?”
Wang Yue also couldn’t understand why this woman chose her. Is it just because she met Ouyang Xu first? It can't be that simple, right?
Under Wang Cai's puzzled gaze, Wang Yue could only deduce, "Probably, it's because she wants both sincerity and identity." When Wang Yue said
this, he saw Zhao Pan'er walking over. He quickly stopped talking.
It's just that Wang Yue stopped a little late. Zhao Pan'er's ears were particularly sensitive and she paid more attention to Wang Yue. She had already heard the conversation between the two.
