Chapter 767 (1/2)
In the golden autumn, Weishui wharf.
A rich man with a folding fan and his boy appeared at the dock.
He glanced at the passenger ships berthing at the wharf, chose a boatman who was most pleasing to the eye, and asked, ”do you want to go to Jiangling mansion?”
The boatman pointed to the west side of the wharf with a wooden expression, ”all the boats going to Jiangling mansion are over there. You can just ask someone if you go by. I am going to the south of the Yangtze River. ”
Bang!
The rich man put away the folding fan, took the boy and came to the west side of the wharf like a crab.
”Jiangling house, Jiangling house. Those who go to Jiangling mansion pay here! Start early tomorrow morning. ”
From afar, I heard the boat guy yelling on the shore.
Rich childe went over, folding fan a stop, stopped boatman's fellow, ”Jiangling house?”
The boat guy plans to look at the rich childe's dress, immediately smile, ”yes, yes, to Jiangling mansion.”
”Which ship?”
The boat guy planned to point to a half new and old passenger ship behind him, ”a three-layer passenger ship, a luxury trip, direct to Jiangling house, the scenery was great all the way, to ensure that the young master had a good time and had a good meal.”
The rich childe looked at the passenger ship with some disdain and told the boy, ”you go up and have a look, don't meet the black boat.”
The man immediately retorted, ”childe, you are really joking. Our ship is registered in the five city division of arms and horses. It operates legally and pays taxes on time. Young master, look here. Do you see the badge on the boat? It was made by Dachang shipyard in Jiangnan. The owner paid several hundred taels of tax and silver when he bought the ship. ”
The rich man wrinkled his nose, ”Dachang shipyard? I haven't heard of it. ”
”Young master, I've never been to Jiangnan. I haven't heard of Dachang shipyard. Dachang shipyard is the largest shipyard in the coastal area. Do you know where the timber from Dachang shipyard comes from
”Where?” Asked the rich man absentmindedly.
But the boat guy Ji said with great enthusiasm: ”all the timber transported from overseas is 50 years old and 100 years old. To tell you the truth, our ship is made of giant wood for hundreds of years, which is luxurious and comfortable enough. The luxury suite on the third floor is worthy of the childe's identity.
The young master chose to take our boat and promised that he would not regret it. When the young master returns to the capital, I guarantee you will still be willing to take our boat. ”
The rich man's servant came down from the boat and said with a wooden face: ”the ground floor is dirty and messy. The second floor and the third floor are clean and comfortable, but they are too small.”
The boatman chuckled, ”the boat is so big, so many people have to be carried, so the cabin can only be built a little smaller. No matter which ship you go to, the cabin is the same small. But other ships are not as clean and comfortable as ours. ”
”Rich childe does not agree,” I heard you said before, your ship will leave tomorrow. ”
”Yes, yes, tomorrow morning.”
”Can't we go today?”
”Young master, this is the fastest speed. If you come here at the beginning of the year and go to Jiangling Mansion by boat, there will be only one ship a month. The direct route from Beijing to Jiangling was not a popular route at that time. Until what book... ”
”Mr. Yang's talk about Jiangling” was published in May this year, and once listed, it ranked first in the list of book sales. ” Said the rich man with a proud face.
”Yes, yes, it is Mr. Yang's talk about Jiangling.”. The young master is well-informed. Since the book came into being, many people with insight like childe have been sailing to Jiangling.
The passenger ships from the capital to Jiangling were changed from one in a month to one in half a month. Later, it was changed to one in ten days and five days. Now it is three days! It's a coincidence, young master. Tomorrow is the day of the ship. If you miss our boat, you will have to wait another three days for a boat to go to Jiangling mansion. ”
At this time, someone inquired about the ship to Jiangling.
At first glance, he is the owner of money.
The boat guy was so excited that he rubbed his hands. He was all rich and fat sheep!
The boat money is small money. The money for eating, drinking and reward is the big money.
”Young master, you see, someone is going to Jiangling again. There are not many cabins left on the second floor and the third floor. You may as well fix the cabin first. If it's too late, it'll be decided by others. ”
The rich young master was persuaded to pay for the cabin.
The boat guy made a list and rushed to greet the new guests.
After booking the cabin, the rich man found an inn near the wharf.
He didn't want to live on the boat at night, and he didn't need that money anyway.
As a result, one inn is full and two are full. When you go to the third Inn, you have to go to a upper room.
”Brother, are you going to Jiangling?”
Someone came forward to say hello.
The rich man looked at each other curiously. He was not rich or poor. He was the son of an ordinary peasant family.
The children of Xiaomin's family waved their wooden cards and said, ”I'm going to Jiangling, too. It seems that we are a boat?”
The rich man nodded, ”brother is also a fan of Mr. Yang?””Yes! It turned out that I was from the same school. After reading Mr. Yang talking about Jiangling, I decided to go to Jiangling mansion. ”
”So is so!” The rich man began to laugh. Fortunately, he met his peers.
”Mr. Yang talks about Jiangling” is gorgeous and beautiful, like a long poem, full of romantic feelings.
Mr. Yang's ”Jiangling mansion” is full of beautiful scenery and beautiful scenery, which makes everyone yearn for the beautiful scenery and beautiful scenery of Jiangling.
