I Made a Fortune by Marrying a Sick Girl! - Chapter 348
Chapter 348 There’s a war
“What about the Tatar side?”
The masked man suddenly asked.
Mr. Yan replied: “The news has been spread, and troops will be sent to the border soon. It will not be a problem to hold back the Northwest Army.”
“Let Jianning be ready too.”
After waiting for most of his life, the masked man didn’t want to wait any longer.
The overall situation of the world is like a tight bowstring, the undercurrent is turbulent, and the storm is coming.
Within the capital, the courtiers had their own agendas, party struggles were fierce, and power schemes were intertwined.
The war on the border resumes.
The Tatar intrusion in northern Xinjiang continues, and it is said that there is a big movement this time, with a large number of cavalry gathering at the border.
When the news reached Song Jin, it was approaching the end of the year.
After Song Jin read the letter, he asked in surprise: “Is there going to be a war?”
“right!”
Xing Lun returned to Huizhou to celebrate the New Year this year.
I came to Qinjiagou to give New Year’s gifts and discuss some things with Song Jin, as well as plans for the coming year.
Song Jin’s surprise didn’t seem like he was faking it.
Many things in this life are different from those in the previous life, including national affairs.
Prince Rui, who guarded the northwest in his previous life, was already sad when he learned that his only son and grandson died tragically. Not long after, he received the news that his daughter had died of illness, and he followed suit.
After that, the Northwest War started.
From time to time, news of wars reached Huizhou.
Huizhou is too far from the northwest, and everything I know about it in my previous life is just hearsay.
Nothing happened to Qin Chi and Li in this life, and Crown Prince Helian Pu, who was rumored to be dying at any time, did not die, which affected Prince Rui. The surviving Prince Rui affected the situation in the northwest again, delaying the war for two or three years.
Xing Lun saw that Song Jin was a little distracted, so he asked again: “Does the boss want to adjust next year’s plan?”
“The medicinal materials will be supplied to Shun’an first, and Shun’an will give him as much as he wants.” Song Jin thought of his private granary again, “The last disaster in Taihu Lake caused two empty granaries. They haven’t been filled yet, right? Think of a way to fill them up. “
“I know. Due to the news of the war in the northwest, the price of food has increased by 10% or 20%. Fortunately, the weather in the south is going well this year. As long as you are willing to spare some silver, you don’t have to worry about not being able to buy it.”
Few businessmen are fools.
Song Jin knew how to stock up on food, and others could think of it too.
No, grain prices started to fluctuate as soon as the news came out.
“It doesn’t matter if it’s expensive, just buy it secretly.”
Song Jin asked Xing Lun to spread out his purchases and not just buy grain in one place, otherwise the government might know about the hoarding of grain and cause trouble.
Xing Lun sat for a while.
Before leaving, he asked again: “When will my boss come to Beijing? Maybe we can go together. It just so happens that I haven’t stopped by to visit the Zhang family yet, so it’s time to go. And for this year’s New Year’s Day, I will use Huizhou Jifang I sent a copy in my name.”
Song Jin asked him to drop by for a house visit and did not set a time limit.
I sent him there as a gift, just to make him familiar with me.
The focus is on Huizhou Prefecture.
If the Zhang family had that intention, they would probably think of the Song family in Huizhou, especially in the year when the injustice of the Song family spread throughout the capital, people from Huizhou suddenly came to give gifts.
Song Jin heard this and said, “You did it properly.”
She had only two lifetime memories of her maternal grandfather’s family, so she had a very weak impression of them.
Later, Song Jin talked about going to Beijing next year.
Xing Lun returned to the pharmacy after learning about it.
The person who greeted him was Lou Ruhan.
A carriage was waiting not far away.
“Brother Lun, the time agreed with Boss Zhu is coming soon.” Lou Ruhan reminded.
Xing Lun thought for a moment, “Let’s go!”
Compared with Song Jin, the hands-off shopkeeper, Xing Lun has many more things to be responsible for. He is busy all day long and has not been able to take a break even when the new year is approaching.
This is an appointment with a Huizhou businessman.
Xing Lun got in the car and suddenly paused, “You inform Xiaoliuzi tonight and arrange for your people to buy grain secretly, buy them separately, buy them in different counties, and then send them to the granary of Zhuangzi in the suburbs.” “Don’t buy it from the grain merchant?”
When Lou Ruhan mentioned the granary, he knew it was very large.
Xing Lun said: “The boss said that we should try our best to hide it. If the quantity is large, it will be easily detected.”
“Yes, I will tell Xiao Liu.”
Lou Ruhan responded respectfully.
Xing Lun nodded and entered the car.
The carriage started moving and headed towards the town.
Lou Ruhan led people to protect Xing Lun. When he was about to arrive at the appointed restaurant, a whistle suddenly sounded, followed by another rapid whistle, one long and one short, repeated three times.
Xing Lun, Lou Ruhan and others’ expressions suddenly changed.
Lou Ruhan said in shock: “Stop the car and turn around.”
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
The driver was also Xing Lun. He responded quickly to the order. When he was about to stop, he heard Xing Lun say again: “You don’t have to stop, just change lanes. Don’t panic, so as not to attract other people’s attention.”
Lou Ruhan was shocked to realize that he was overreacting.
So the carriage that was supposed to stop crossed the street as if nothing had happened, passed the promised restaurant, and then changed its route.
At the same time, Lou Ruhan’s people also went to find out more.
Sitting in the carriage, he turned around and whispered to the carriage: “Brother Lun, someone is investigating you and the **** agency, probably because of the incident in Huaxi Town. They ambushed someone in the restaurant and wanted to catch Brother Lun. “
“Don’t panic, just carry on as usual.”
Xing Lun didn’t believe that the other party could get the evidence.
At best, he is doubtful.
Xing Lun thought of Boss Zhu, “Is the person named Zhu a bait they deliberately released?”
“I’m not sure. I sent someone to investigate.”
Lou Ruhan gritted his teeth viciously.
If you dare to plot against them, this matter must not go through.
Xing Lun thought that this person named Zhu came to the door after being introduced by an acquaintance. He said that Zhu had a batch of Qimen’s top-quality tea at a very fair price.
The purpose of meeting today is to discuss this matter.
Returned to the courtyard where he lived in the town.
Xing Lun sent someone to the restaurant to test it out, “Have someone tell Boss Zhu that I have something to do and won’t be able to get out for a while. If we want to talk, we can make an appointment after the New Year’s Eve.”
“OK.”
Lou Ruhan immediately sent a younger brother to handle the matter.
He was dressed like a servant, and he went to the restaurant openly and openly. When he arrived at the box agreed with Boss Zhu, everyone lurking in the restaurant looked at him.
He knocked on the door and entered.
After a while, people came out again.
Then he swaggered out of the restaurant.
After that, someone secretly followed him.
Watching the people in the restaurant secretly, it didn’t take long to see the fat boss Zhu coming out of the box. After he left, the ambushers also withdrew.
A waiter in the shop passed the news to people outside, and soon it arrived at Xing Lun’s place.
“The person named Zhu is really not innocent.”
Xing Lun’s eyes were cold and he remembered this matter in his heart.
In Huizhou, there are not many people who dare to offend Xing Lun in recent years. Moreover, the Hui Gang has always been united, but I don’t know what happened. He sat at the desk and grinded slowly.
If this matter is not handled properly, it will be a big trouble.
After all, if the other party finds out about him, they may find out about Song Jin. The origins of the Xing and Zhou families are not a secret, and they have close ties with Song and Jin.
Then Xing Lun wrote a letter quickly.
“Have someone send a letter to my boss.”
Xing Lun quickly wrote a letter and handed it to Lou Ruhan.
Lou Ruhan took the letter and delivered it himself.
