June, Yanziwu.
Chen Fei stood in front of Shenhe Village with an uneasy heart.
"Stop, what are you doing?" the guard at the door asked sternly.
Chen Fei took out a waist card and said with an apologetic smile: "Miss Abi asked me to come over and give you some instructions."
Hearing the word "Abi", the guard's expression changed and his smile immediately brightened: "Oh, brother, come on, come on, I will lead you!"
Chen Fei:......
I'm not used to you being like this.
Outside the study room, Chen Fei stood in front of the desk, his body straight. After more than half a year of recuperation, her face is quite rosy, but she is still very short and has dark skin.
Abi was a little surprised when she looked at the results she had received from her teacher.
I didn't expect that the little beggar I randomly picked up on the roadside would be so outstanding. Not only was he far ahead in the cultural class, he was even better in other arts, light kung fu, etc., beating hundreds of students in the school to pieces.
This is a talent.
"Chen Fei."
"The villain is here."
"Because Master Deng is out, I'm a little busy right now. I see that you are doing well in your studies. The teacher also said that with your intelligence, self-study will be faster and better. I am going to let you leave the school early and promote you to Murong The family's third-class retinue.
The salary is: a monthly salary of three taels of silver, a food and clothing subsidy of two contribution points, and the optional task on the first floor of the library is to temporarily study with me for two months, and then be responsible for the procurement of Yanziwu. "
Chen Fei was shocked. How could such a small body like him be responsible for such a big thing?
Abi seemed to understand his concerns: "Don't worry, Miss A'Zhu is in charge of the city. You just need to meet outside the city, check the list, and then escort the things to Yanziwu.
Of course, you are not the leader of the guard. I think you and Le Ye get along well. I think you and the leader of the guard can get along well too. "
Guard leader? Chen Fei suddenly had an ominous premonition.
An hour later, on the deck of the big ship.
Chen Fei and the guard commander sat opposite each other, looking at each other.
The young man didn't expect that the guard commander turned out to be a tiger taller than him, with claws bigger than his face, with a sinewy body and a fierce face.
He felt that Miss Abi was right, and he should get along well with the commander.
Because if he is eaten for a while, wouldn’t that mean harmony?
Mother, Miss Abi, Master, save me!
Bao BuTong walked out of the cabin, saw the little guy trembling with fear, and laughed: "Xiao Feizi, you are too courageous, I tell you, Brother Hu is one of our own.
If you serve him well from now on, not to mention anything else, a little bit of it from Brother Hu's mouth will be enough for you to be popular and drink hot food, and marry a girl with ten bedrooms and eight bedrooms. "
Little girl? Chen Fei was stunned. He didn't know why when he heard these three words, he was suddenly filled with strength. He stepped forward directly, approached Dahu, and smiled flatteringly.

"Brother Tiger, are you tired of lying on your stomach? Do you want me to give you a squeeze on your shoulder?"
"Woo~" the tiger let out a soft cry and narrowed his eyes.
Seeing this expression, Chen Fei was overjoyed. Isn't this the same as Le Ye? He hurriedly stepped forward and beat him, sometimes even lightly scratching his chin and ears, using all his strength.
Deng Baichuan next to him was surprised. With Brother Hu's arrogant temperament and unrivaled strength, he was so easy to talk to today.
Could it be that just like Miss Abi said, this boy is naturally close to small animals?
Thinking of Brother Hu's strength again, a hint of sadness flashed in Deng Baichuan's eyes. According to estimates, if he went up to fight, he would win 30-70.
Three breaths, seven minutes full.
If Shuangai, whether human or animal, has this kind of strength in the future, what use will he have?
Will he end up like those useless old people in the village? How boring would it be to play chess and fish every day while your children take care of you, eat and wash yourself?
Traveling across the rivers and lakes, following the master or the master, safe and worry-free, and then arguing with the heroes of the world, and winning the argument is what he loves most!
Suddenly, a small boat came quickly in the distance.
"Report, Mr. Bao, people in the world have said that I have 200,000 taels of silver in Yanziwu and countless martial arts secrets. Moreover, after Master Murong passed away, hundreds of martial arts masters came together to ask for an explanation."
Packages are different:......
Is this asking him to fight with the heroes?
He swore he was just joking!
Chen Fei:? ? ?
He hasn’t given birth to a son yet!
…
The sun rises and the moon sets, time flies by, and four years pass in the blink of an eye.
In the fourth year of Yuanyou (1089), Su Shi was appointed bachelor of Longtuge and knew Suzhou.
In the study room of the Suzhou government office, the fifty-two-year-old Su Shi finally left the court, where he only knew party fighting and chaos all day long, and he felt comfortable.
This external transfer was also what he actively requested.
Compared to fighting with those people all day long in Bianliang, he still likes to do some practical things for the people as a local official.
"Master, Fan Zhengping, the son of Prime Minister Fan, pays his respects." A servant came to report.
Su Shi nodded: "I'm just looking for him, let him come in."
"yes!"
During the Song Dynasty, scholar-bureaucrats ruled the world. Since the founding of the dynasty, scholar-bureaucrats had never been sentenced to death unless they committed serious crimes of treason.
The book has its own golden house, and the book has its own beauty like jade.
This poem can tell that obtaining fame is almost a step to success for an ordinary person. Therefore, in various places, especially in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, the gentry almost represented the local people.
Su Shi naturally understood that without the support of these gentry, it would be extremely difficult for him to do anything he wanted to do.
Fortunately, Fan Xiang shared his political views, and there should be little resistance to what he wanted to do when he came to be the prefect this time.
"Fan Zhengping, a common man, pays his respects to Mr. Su."
Su Shi looked up, very satisfied.
This son has a square appearance and extraordinary bearing. He is worthy of being the son of Prime Minister Fan. He is as beautiful as he was when he was young.
"I, the prefect, and your father are also close friends. Zhengping doesn't need to be restrained. Please sit down, drink tea, and talk to me about the current situation of the gentry in Suzhou.
If I want to build canals, dredge, or build embankments, those people can't get around them. "
Fan Zhengping sat down, pondered for a moment, and said: "To be honest with Mr. Su, before you came, there was a letter from my father, so the common people naturally knew everything and said everything.
Nowadays, there are two dominant families in Suzhou, one is Fan and the other is of course Murong, known as Fan Bancheng and Murong Bancheng. "
Su Shi was stunned. He was a literary master, well-read poetry and books, and was proficient in classics and history. When he heard the name Murong, he knew its origin.
"But the Murong family who joined our Song Dynasty as a member of the Xianbei clan?"
"Exactly."
"Tell me about this Murong family." Su Shi asked curiously.
Scholars in the Song Dynasty paid great attention to one's horse to ensure peace and stability, and one's dismount to govern the country. Therefore, many of the officials above the court had considerable force and strategy.
When in court, due to political differences, fights in court were common. Although he, Su Shi, was not good at martial arts, he was also very interested in the world of sword-licking blood.
What's more, it must not be easy for the Murong family to control half of the city as a foreigner and gain recognition from the Fan family.
Fan Zhengping pondered for a while and said: "Speaking of which, Murong Bo, the top warrior in the world, suddenly passed away. At that time, Murong Fu took control of the family in less than 20 years. I thought that the Murong family and I would just sink.
Later, I saw that the maritime business was good, and the Murong family was not strong, and Deng Baichuan, the "first palmist in Jiangnan", was in charge, so I invited them to do this maritime business together.
Soon I heard that hundreds of gangsters were besieging Yanziwu, and that Deng Baichuan had set off with my fleet. I thought the Murong family would disappear.
After all, we have the friendship of allies, how can we watch them die in the wilderness?
I sent a few servants to check out the situation. If they could help collect the body, it would also be a good thing to find a geomantic treasure place for burial.
Unexpectedly, those martial arts masters had not yet arrived at Yanziwu, and while they were circling around Taihu Lake, Murong Fu stepped onto the water, and with a flash of cold sword, he moved in and out of the enemy ships with a cool and unrestrained manner.
There were hundreds of masters, but no one was an enemy in one round. In less than a stick of incense, Murong Fu cut off the hand tendons of all the masters, and the whole country was filled with grief. "
Fan Zhengping took a sip of water, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes, and continued: "To defeat the powerful enemy, Murong Fu finally stepped on the water chestnut flower and stood with his hands behind his back, his expression calm, as if dealing with these people was as easy as breathing.
Only then did everyone realize that there was a kitten on his shoulder, which had not fallen down from beginning to end. At this time, the kitten let out a kitten roar to hundreds of experts: "Meow~"
For a long time, Murong Fu left without saying a word.
After this battle, Murong Fu became famous in the world and was known as the Immortal of the Southern Sword, as famous as the former leader of the Beggar Clan, Wang Jiantong, the "Northern Divine Palm". "
Su Shi's blood boiled with excitement.
A young hero emerges from nowhere to save his family in a critical moment. The key is to have a world-class martial arts skills and still show mercy, which is even more rare.
"Even if he has unparalleled martial arts, the Murong family can't control half of the city, right?" After Su Shi's passion, he realized something was wrong.
As far as he knew, martial arts families generally treasured their broomsticks. There were at most three or two masters in a family, and no one did not talk about it.
Moreover, Suzhou belongs to the Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas, and many officials of the imperial court have their homes here. Will they tolerate the dominance of the Murong family?
Who can give up money, interests, and the most important reputation of being an official?
Fan Zhengping scratched his head: "It would be okay if I only had martial arts skills. The key is, didn't I say at first that Deng Baichuan, the 'First Hand in the South of the Yangtze River', escorted my fleet east to Yamato to do business?
When he came back the next year, Deng Baichuan somehow managed to bring back an entire fleet with dozens of large and small ships. And the Yamato man was respectful and respectful to Master Deng.
After that, the Murong family's shipping business grew bigger and bigger, and there were more and more ships. Now, almost all shipping in the East China Sea and South China Sea depends on his expression. "
Su Shi fell into deep thought, then stared at the Fan family boy and wondered for a long time, was this Murong Bancheng raised by you?
Fan Zhengping blushed at the sight: "Master Su, I found out later that the Murong family is invincible on the sea. One is that the owner of Deng Village has an eagle, nearly four feet high, which is regarded as a totem by the Yamato people.
The other is that the Murong family seems to have some secret skills that can control the giant whales, sharks, and giant seals on the vast sea. With the help of these giant beasts, they are almost invincible. "
This is the Dragon King?
Su Shi was quite surprised, and then even more surprised: "This shipping business is profitable for everyone. Will the families in Jiangsu and Zhejiang allow the Murong family to dominate?
And I remember that your Fan family doesn’t have many experts, who can handle the Murong family’s overwhelming trend? "
Fan Zhengping blushed a little, but he still took a sip of tea and continued to explain: "This Nan Jianxian is quite good at life. After defeating all the forces at sea, he announced the establishment of the Song Sea Trade Chamber of Commerce.
In the future, everyone will unify all maritime trade, and even actively share maritime charts.
You must know that the Murong family has sea beasts to help them, and the sea charts are many times more detailed and accurate than ours.
This cannot be fought at sea, and the Murong family has now unified the coast of Yamato Island with almost no effort. There is a way out, so everyone has no choice but to join in.
After the unification of sea trade, each of our families is almost making money. Even the Murong family is planning to open a route to the Salt Sea in the far west next year. By then, we can make a fortune again. "
Fan Zhengping became more and more enthusiastic as he talked. Obviously making a lot of money was an extremely exciting thing for me, otherwise I would not be able to support his eighteen-room concubine.
Su Shi frowned.
Murong Fu, who was only twenty years old, was able to convince these businessmen in the shopping mall and balance their interests. Now he almost controls the hugely profitable maritime trade, and has also won over so many Baiguan clans.
It can be said that the Murong family is now a behemoth.
Before the critical moment, he was in the court and he knew nothing about it. What does this mean?
One is that Murong Fu knew how to be a good person and was willing to give up profits. He spent an unknown amount of money to feed those big shots who were honest and dedicated to serving the people.
The other one probably has a certain degree of control over Jiangsu and Zhejiang. If he comes to Suzhou today, he may be able to go to Murong Fu's table in the evening.
How terrifying!
I hope this Murong Fu just wants to be a businessman.
Although he thought this way, Su Shi still felt uneasy and looked directly at the little loser of the Fan family: "Tell me, has Murong Fu ever thought about ascending to heaven?"
As he spoke, Su Shi pointed above.
When Fan Zhengping heard this, he quickly shook his head: "Absolutely impossible!"
"Why?" Su Shi frowned.
Doesn’t that man want to be a great person and rule the world? Now, Murong Fu can even directly proclaim himself emperor in Yamato.
Fan Zhengping hesitated for a while: "I can't explain clearly, but Mr. Su knows it after seeing Murong Fu. The name of Nanjianxian is not for nothing. He has a temperament that is as good as an immortal, has money and power, and is the supreme one in the world. He is Like floating clouds.
Only when facing his civet cat, he would play and fight with the cat like an ordinary person. "
Can a man still have a fairy-like temperament? Why did Su Shi not believe it?
He has seen the emperor many times, saying that the power of the sky is unpredictable, that the dragon's face is joyful, and that the emperor is angry and lays down millions of corpses, but aren't they all lies?
"Master, there is an invitation outside, inviting you to attend the wedding of a man named Murong Fu!" A servant reported outside.
Su Shi was stunned: "Bring it to me and have a look."
"yes!"
[I heard that Mr. Su knows Suzhou, and I have always known that Mr. Su is good at writing, calligraphy and painting, which is unparalleled in ancient times and today, and I admire him.
Tomorrow at noon, we will get married again at Yanziwu. We will prepare a small drink and wait for your arrival.
Murong Fu. 】
Seeing words is like seeing people. Su Shi carefully appreciated the words on the invitation, subconsciously stroked his beautiful beard and nodded in appreciation.
"The ancient ink is lightly rubbed and filled with fragrance, and the new bath in the inkstone shines brightly.
The characters in this poem are floating like white clouds and dogs, and also like misty clouds. When you look at them, you will feel that your mind is open-minded. Mr. Fan, accompany me to the wedding tomorrow. "
"How dare you disobey your orders!"
…
