After hearing Wu Jie's praise, Shui Sheng was even more contented. Dalala said: "Since you ask about this, we are all walking in the world. If you don't tell secret words, just open a price. How many empty seats do you have and how much money do you want?"

Wu Jie wondered: "What is the empty seat and what price to offer?"

"No, no!" Shui Sheng slapped the debris in his hand, stood up and looked up and down at Wu Jie: "I heard that you are also a native of Nanjing, so why don't you even know this."

Wu Jie: "I really don't know."

"It seems that I have met a young man." Shui Sheng grinned and said, "Then I will open the skylight and say something. There is a batch of goods to go to Nanjing from here, which is only a few dozen miles of waterways. I want to squeeze with you. I can borrow the sign of your official boat to pass the level."

Shui Sheng: "Don't worry, there will be no trouble. I Shui Sheng has no other skills, but I have walked many roads. Not to mention the Grand Canal and the Yangtze River, I have even been to Zhejiang and Fujian. The place is now in war, and it is a mess. Even if you dare to go to such a place, what are you afraid of? If you have business in the future, you can just say it."

Wu Jie's heart moved, and he didn't expect that Shui Sheng had been to the front line.

He came to Nanjing this time and was in charge of military affairs, so he happened to ask him about the frontline news.

"So it's smuggling, so bold!" Lian Lao San slowly leaned towards him, and just waited for Wu Jie to give him the order, and then took him down to meet the official.

What a joke. This bird man is so brave. He actually wants to smuggle the big celebrity around the dignified Hanlin Academy and the bachelor of the Hanlin Academy and the big celebrity around him, and he doesn't want to live anymore.

Wu Jie waved his hand to Lian Lao San, signaling him to endure.

He asked Shuisheng: "It's your goods, is it your private salt? This is a beheading business. Besides, I already have goods on the ship and have family members. I can't take risks with you."

Shui Sheng: "How could it be private salt? That job is monopolized by the salt dogs. Although I, Shui Sheng, can't do such a big business. It's just a batch of medicinal materials from the Northeast, such as ginseng, deer antler, Tian Qi, and Jiangnan are fighting. Isn't it because of the lack of medicine? One comes and one goes, it's ten times the benefit."

"You still say you can't do big business. Isn't this business a big one? The transaction of medicinal materials is beneficial to the country and the people. That's a good thing. Besides, since the profit is so big, why are you evading taxes?" Wu Jie deliberately acne the young man.

Shui Sheng blushed with a rare blushing: "The profit of medicinal materials is great. But since the use of the Lijin system, the government has come out to collect one, and the military man will collect another one. Fortunately, the government has a fixed quota. The military man is reincarnated by hungry ghosts. After seeing so many precious medicinal materials, there is no bleeding in his eyes. If you can't take this risk, you can offer the price. It's already late at night, so let's not talk much nonsense."

As he spoke, Shui Sheng's two men also walked onto the boat and stood beside him with arms around him, with a fierce look on his face.

When hearing Shuisheng talk about Lijin, Wu Jie frowned slightly. The Lijin system can solve major national financial problems, but the military discipline of the troops is too bad, and it is also a common thing to not collect random punishments according to the rules.

Wu Jie shook his head: "No, I won't do such illegal things."

When the two men next to Shui Sheng saw Wu Jie rejection, they were immediately annoyed: "If that guy didn't say anything earlier, he would have to quit for a long time. It's really hateful. Will he beg for a beating?"

Shuisheng turned his head and scolded, "Shut up, we are here to discuss business today, not robbery. Business is about your love and my will, so there is no reason to force it. You two of you get off the boat!"

The two of them responded and got off the boat.

Wu Jie nodded secretly: This Shuisheng is a person who understands the truth and has a good character.

When the two subordinates left, Shuisheng suddenly bowed to the ground and begged: "Master Wu, tell you the truth. This batch of goods is not my Shui. I just help them get some money for people. I also have more than ten brothers under my command to eat. We will not steal or rob, and we will not do such a bad conscience business. Please be kind and enjoy the food."

"I just said, you are a big business place, why don't you even have a boat?" Wu Jie smiled and helped him up, asking, "It's easy to pass the level. Just pay some money to hire a scholar to sit on the boat. Why did you think of using an official boat?"

Shui Sheng sighed: "In the past, I spent two taels of silver to hire a scholar to pass, but now Isn't there an extra level of Lijin for the military master? Those plagues only have silver in their eyes, and a scholar is worth nothing, so I will not pay attention to it at all. Besides, if you really talk about this, the goods are not from scholars. If you really check it, it is hard for others to say anything. As for Juren, the military masters dare not provoke him, but I also want to invite Juren Master!"

Wu Jie smiled and felt more and more interesting, so he nodded: "Well, if there are not many goods, you can squeeze."

Shui Sheng was very surprised. He bowed his hand repeatedly: "Thank you, thank you, I got the money later, and I will have a lot of money for you."

After saying that, he jumped out of the boat agilely and went to find the group of merchants without saying goodbye.

Lian Lao San: "Master, do you really want the idle people to wait for the boat?"

"Of course, I have something to ask the Shui surnamed later."

"Yes, Master."

After a while, I saw that the water brought two merchants, one fat and one thin, and there were about a dozen porters, all carrying loads, heavy and full of stuff, probably all of them were medicinal materials.

After getting on the boat, Shui Sheng didn't talk nonsense and handed a bag of silver to Moth: "The profit to my sister-in-law."

At first glance, it was about twenty taels, but the work was quite good. It seemed that this batch of goods was of high value.

The fat businessman was obviously a very good person. He hurriedly went up to meet Wu Jie and said that his surname was Mu.

Wu Jie smiled and nodded, and even the third brother pushed him away: "I understand, the place on the ship is not big, so put the cargo in the cabin."

"Thank you, thank you!" The fat businessman discovered that Wu Jie and others were very arrogant at this time, and he couldn't help but feel a sudden blow in his heart.

The thin businessman saw that the moth was beautiful, deliberately walked over and bowed: "I have met my sister-in-law." His eyes were rolling around, and his eyes were not fixed on her.

Moth was annoyed, snorted, and turned his body over.

But he annoyed the sound of water and immediately glanced at the thin businessman fiercely, scolded, "Whatever you can see is that you can see, carefully dig your eyes."

Seeing his fierce look in his eyes, the thin businessman was shocked and sweated coldly. He hurriedly lowered his head.

Moth thought to himself: The child of Shuisheng is really good.

But I didn't expect that when it comes to real age, Moth was two years younger than him.

Shuisheng refused to give up and cursed: "It's really great to think that you have a few stinky money. I angered me and threw all your goods into the Yangtze River. Bastards, dogs are so annoying that they are too scared to kill! "

The two businessmen were scolded so much that they dared not speak, so they lowered their heads and hid in the cabin in shame.

It was already deep in the night. The moth went back to the house to rest.

After the resettlement was completed, Shuisheng came over to Wu Jie again and told him to drive the boat quickly. He said that there were still dozens of miles to go to Nanjing from here. It was against the current. It would take a whole day. If he left tomorrow, he might not be able to arrive until the evening. It would be better to start the anchor now.

Wu Jie was reminded by him and asked the boatman to drive the boat.

By dawn, the boat arrived at Zhenjiang, which is a famous port on the Yangtze River.

What a sunny day. The scenery is beautiful. Wu Jie held a book and sat on the side of the boat to read it.

Shuisheng smiled and said, "Boss Wu is actually reading books. Could it be that he wants to take the top scorer to win the family and glorify his ancestors?"

Wu Jie smiled faintly: "If I say I am the top scholar, do you believe it?"

"I believe it, I believe it!" Shui Sheng said in a long voice: "Actually, don't you just want to pretend to be an official? If you are an official, just read this book if you are fine. I said, you are too devoted to acting. There are no one else here, so you don't need to pretend like this."

Wu Jie had no choice but to say, "I don't have any other hobbies, I just like reading."

"I said, it's better to read less books. If you read too much, you will lose your temper and don't look like a man."

"Isn't it good to read and be wise?"

"Hehe, it's good, it's not like a man." It can be seen that Shui Sheng is not interested in Wu Jie.

Wu Jie smiled bitterly, and he also argued differently because he encountered a ship coming to inspect.

Sure enough, I encountered the cash gate. However, when I saw that it was an official boat, I let it go after asking a few words.

Wu Jie smiled and said to Shui Sheng who was lying on the deck: "Shui Sheng, it's easy to make money."

Shui Sheng: "This is the beginning, the key is Nanjing Wharf, which is the most powerful place!"

"Why?"

Shui Sheng: "There are levels of Lijin Bureau in that place. The check is extremely strict. Whether the success depends on where it will be."

Shui Sheng was conscious because there was some location on the boat, so he simply lay on the deck to sleep.

Seeing that Shuisheng had woken up, Wu Jie talked to him about the war in Fujian and Zhejiang, saying that he was willing to go there to do some business, and asked what was appropriate to do, and where to go there.

"Go to Taizhou, Zhejiang." After talking about the front line with Wu Jie for a long time, Shui Sheng suddenly said this.

Wu Jie: "Why, why? Didn't you say that there is the front line? It's just after the war, it's very messy."

"It's just finished the war, but it's not messy." Shui Sheng smiled and said, "It's Qi Jiguang's territory, and his soldiers are honest. Don't be surprised. In fact, you have to take the honest soldiers in the war, and the oil boys are useless, and they are afraid of death. Grandpa Qi's soldiers are miners in the mountains, and they are honest, but once they go to the battlefield, they ignore life and death. On weekdays, they never bother the place."

"So, Qi Jiguang's soldiers are quite powerful."

"That's right, it's so powerful. In the past few years, other officers and soldiers have been unable to escape when they see the Japanese pirates. More than a dozen Japanese pirates can sweep across the land and land thousands of miles away. Only Grandpa Qi's soldiers dare to rush up and see the sword. What a good man!" He shouted "Oh," Shui Sheng said: "In recent years, Grandpa Qi has been fighting with Japanese pirates in Fujian, Zhejiang and Fujian. If he can die under his tent, it will be worth it."

Wu Jie smiled: "I think you are also skilled in martial arts, why don't you go to Qi Jiguang to serve the country?" From the long passage Shui Sheng said just now, it can be seen that Hu Zongxian really wants to raise the enemy and respect himself. It seems that if you want to end the war in Jiangnan as soon as possible, it will still fall on Qi Jiguang.

Speaking of this, Shui Sheng was a little depressed: "I am the only son, and my 60-year-old mother needs to be raised in my family. After my elder brother passed away, I also left a sister-in-law and three hungry children. I want to go to the front line to fight with the Japanese and fight for a future. But if I die, how should they live?"

Speaking of this, Shui Sheng couldn't help but sigh and his expression became lonely.

The situation when he passed the level just now alarmed the fat and thin businessmen and got up early.

Seeing that everything went well, he let his entourage prepare wine and food, and placed it on the deck to invite Wu Jie and Shui Sheng to drink.

Shui Sheng just mentioned his depressed things. He was in a bad mood and just ate wine.

Wu Jie held a wine glass and looked at the scenery on the river.

The fat businessman's surname is Mu, and the thin one with the thin one is Yun, both are very talkative. However, Wu Jie looked at the man with a lewd look and was displeased and too lazy to talk to them.

Mu merchant: "Fortunately, Boss Wu's official ship works, and it's safe." He pointed to Wu Jie's bow and asked, "I know that Yingtian Prefecture School Yamen is the one who is in charge of Nanjing's study and husband. What is the position of this supervisor envoy? How much money did you spend to invite these two brands? Is it okay?"

"What if I said I didn't spend money?"

"How is it possible? How can I get an official card without spending money?" The thin businessman surnamed Yun sneered.

Wu Jie smiled but didn't explain.

Merchant Yun refused to give up and said, "Mr. Wu, who is that woman you?"

Wu Jie became annoyed: "Zhuo Jing."

"Haha, don't hide it from others." The businessman surnamed Yun said: "If it were your wife, how could your old man call him Sister Mori, instead of being respectfully called him Mrs. Lady? In my opinion, it should be your concubine, Boss Wu."

Wu Jie snorted, looking ugly.

The businessman surnamed Yun suddenly asked, "Boss Wu, will you sell your concubine? Is it a price?"

The businessman surnamed Mu was shocked: "Old Yun, don't be rude!"
