When the ship arrived in the afternoon, it docked at the Yangzhou pier. The servants of the Hong family did not know when they received the news. in a row.Hong Haoyu boarded Baoshantang's boat to say goodbye in person. Although he wanted to invite Du Ruo and Liu Qiqiao to Yangzhou for a visit, but knowing that they were on their way, he only politely invited Liu Qiqiao before returning to the capital. I can come to Yangzhou for a day or two, so that the Hong family can show their friendship as a landlord.

Du Ruo calculated the itinerary, and he was afraid that he would not have time to come, so he politely declined.By the time it was time to light the lanterns, the Hong family's big boat had already emptied, and the big boat sailed into the inner harbor, instead of docking with Baoshantang's boat.Around the time of Xu, another group of servants from the Hong family came to visit. The steward at the head looked very wealthy, and after boarding the boat to visit Mrs. Du, he led a group of servants in and pointed to the things they were holding in their hands. : "This is a Hetian Jade Avalokitesvara, these are two thousand-year-old ginseng, this is an agarwood wood carving pen holder brought back from Tianzhu, and here is a box of South Sea pearls, which are given to the old lady, the young lady and Doctor Du, There are also several boxes of high-quality Yangzhou silk outside, which are given to the maids to make some new clothes."

It turned out that after Young Master Hong returned home, after thinking about it, he still told Master Hong exactly what happened along the way, because Mother Zhao was sent back by land first, so Master Hong knew that there must be something wrong on the way. What's the matter? After asking, such a big thing really happened, and Yang Shi was almost divorced with a letter of divorce.

Master Hong went to visit Mrs. Kong again, and saw that her vitality was seriously injured, and his heart was full of anger. In addition, two days ago, someone from the capital sent a letter, saying that because of the matter of Mr. Ying, several vacancies in the household department were vacant. down.Mr. Kong was already a second-rank official when he was released, and his performance has been excellent year after year. This time, he may be able to get a minister of the household department. He is writing a letter to ask his in-laws to issue a military order to guarantee the Jiangnan area for the next few years. taxation.

When Master Hong heard that Young Master Hong had made friends with the Du family of Baoshantang, he immediately became interested.The capital city has always been like a piece of iron to the foreign population, and under normal circumstances they cannot enter the interior.More than ten years ago, Mr. Hong’s business in Jinling was pretty good, but in the end when the imperial court moved the capital, all the nobles in the north wanted to go back. In the end, the bustling Jinling City still couldn’t keep the old people who wanted to return home. , one by one back to the north.Afterwards, Master Hong thought of many ways to expand his business, but he couldn't find a leader in all walks of life in the capital.

Baoshantang is in the business of medicinal materials, Yaxiangzhai is in the business of spices, and Xinghualou's restaurant and cakes are excellent. They have no connections, and they are always short of time in business.So when Master Hong learned that Liu Qiqiao proposed to open a joint medical clinic, he immediately became interested, and wished to reply immediately, but he was stopped by Master Hong and said: "They are going south this time, and they will be in Jinling. If you stay for a few days, father doesn't need to be so anxious to give you a letter, it's the same when we send someone to reply to the letter when they arrive in Jinling, otherwise it will appear that we are a little too eager."

Master Hong glanced at his son who was becoming more and more calm, and became more and more happy in his heart. He just said: "Then don't reply to the letter now, and send someone to give some gifts. This is what it should be. There are some things that cannot be bought with money. Yes, you listen to Dad."

That's why Master Hong opened the warehouse, picked out a few gifts himself, and asked his most capable housekeeper to deliver them.
