Chapter 216

Shenfu, located in the north of Dengzhou, is a large house covering nearly 20 mu.

Shen yourong invited Li Yuanqing. Naturally, Li Yuanqing couldn't visit him empty handed. He ordered his soldiers to buy some tonic and medicine gifts on the street, and presented him with a gift of 200 Liang.

Li Yuanqing has reached a compromise with the Shen family. Naturally, Mr. Shen can't let Li Yuanqing suffer any loss. He will send him away after he gives the 9520 Liang silver. He will not argue with Li Yuanqing any more.

Li Yuanqing didn't have much interest in the singer girl. The reason why he saved her was to look at her pitifully. But now it's like this, he can't give up and let his soldiers find an inn nearby to settle her down.

After everything was cleared up, Li Yuanqing walked into the gate of Shenfu.

In the guest hall of the Shen family, Shen yourong greets Li Yuanqing warmly, while Mr. Shen becomes a child serving tea and pouring water.

Shen yourong is nearly 70 years old. He has been a soldier all his life, and his achievements are brilliant.

In Liaodong, he fought against Japanese invaders and aided Korea, pacified Taiwan, and wiped out Japanese pirates. Shen yourong was in the front line, including the present situation of Eastern Liaoning after Jin Dynasty.

Li Chengliang, Li Rusong, Li Rubai, Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou, the brilliant generals and stars in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, had fought with them.

For such a real veteran, Li Yuanqing admires and flatters the "living fossil" character.

They are the common characteristics of soldiers, and soon the atmosphere has become warm.

Li Yuanqing also had the honor to listen to Shen yourong talk about some of the wars in those years and the demeanor of generals and stars.

"Well. It's a pity that things are different from people. If Li Shuai is still there, how can he be so arrogant? " When it comes to the current situation in Liaoning, shen you can't bear to clap the table and sigh.

Li Yuanqing said: "the old slave is also a hero. Since the establishment of the thirteen vice soldiers, it is still a long way to go. The war in the Liao Dynasty is not optimistic. "

Shen yourong nodded deeply and asked Li Yuanqing about the recent new war in Liaodong.

Li Yuanqing also gave him a detailed account of the midsummer offensive, including the defensive battle in Lushun.

Shen yourong pondered on the speech for a long time. "I have personally experienced the fighting power of the early nvzhenren. Now that they have established their country, they are more powerful than ever. Yuanqing, the burden of your generation is very heavy. "

Li Yuanqing nodded his head and asked Shen yourong some questions about the war in Southeast China. Shen yourong answered them one by one.

Soon, it was dinner. Shen yourong warmly invited Li Yuanqing to stay for a banquet in Shenfu, and asked Shen Jin, the son of Shen, to prepare for the banquet.

Li Yuanqing is not polite, nodding to show agreement.

When he came to Dengzhou today, he wanted to stay for a banquet in Shenfu to save Zhang cambai from the official Canghai and create time and space.

They also exchanged views on the general situation of the Liao area.

Shen yourong has rich experience in battle. To a large extent, he does not agree with the strategy of building fortresses in western Liaoning Province. This is not only time-consuming and money consuming, but also has little effect. To some extent, he is also quite critical of Mao Wenlong's turning to the eunuch party.

Li Yuanqing also knew that Shen yourong was on the side of Yuan Keli, which naturally could not be too close to Dongjiang. However, his position was quite critical. The Denglai Navy blocked the lifeblood of Dongjiang's supplies. The government's food, payment and reward had to go through his boat before going to PiDao.

Naturally, Li Yuanqing couldn't get too entangled in these matters for the first time. Instead, he turned the topic to a more professional military level and carefully asked Shen yourong for his experience in naval warfare.

Shen yourong did not leave his hand, one by one to answer Li Yuanqing.

Soon, the banquet was ready, and Shen yourong appreciated Li Yuanqing's personality and talent. In order to show respect, he called back his children and grandchildren.

Shen yourong has eight sons. Except for the eldest, who is now in Xuancheng, Anhui Province, to guard the family business, the other children and grandchildren all work in Dengzhou and serve in Denglai Navy.

Relying on mountains and water is also the choice of the Ming generals.

Shen Jin, the son of Shen Yourong, is the legitimate son of Shen Shouchong, the six sons of Shen Yourong. He is also Shen Yourong's favorite grandson. He is only 20 years old this year. Because he is favored, he has not yet joined the military.

Looking at Shen Jin's performance tonight, Li Yuanqing has already understood that this guy, at home, pretends to be like a good baby, but outside, he has completely changed his appearance.

However, this guy can also disguise, but he can be so carefree, it must be Shen yourong's protection.

No one is a saint.

Shen Yuanqing can understand.

Although Shen Jin is a dandy, he is not an indomitable person. The lesson Li Yuanqing gave him today will surely make him stop for a while.

Shen's family are very bold and unrestrained. They drink a lot, but most of them are mediocre. The only one in higher vocational education is Shen Shouchong, Shen Jin's father. He is now the Deputy General of Denglai Navy and should be Shen yourong's successor.

"General Li, today many dogs have offended. A certain generation of this incompetent boy has made amends to you." Shen Shouchong came to Li Yuanqing with his glass in his hand.Li Yuanqing said with a smile: "six Ye, you are a little brother of Zhesha. If you don't fight, you don't know each other. I'm also happy to make friends like Mr. Shen. "

Next to him, Shen Jin couldn't help scolding him. Li Yuanqing was a generation higher than him in any word. But Li Yuanqing gave him face, how could he not give Li Yuanqing face?

Busy smile way: "can get to know General Li, Shen Jin three is lucky."

When the gratitude and resentment were resolved, the atmosphere became more intense. The Shen family toasted Li Yuanqing in turn. Li Yuanqing did not refuse to come, which made the Shen family feel li Yuanqing's heroic spirit.

Shen Jin is not only admired, although he is his age, but Li Yuanqing's skills, he can hardly match.

Shen yourong is old after all. Although his energy is good, he still can't compare with young people. After drinking a few drinks, he is already tired and goes back to rest.

The banquet became a stage for the younger generation.

However, the Shen family's drinking capacity was obviously no match for Li Yuanqing, who had been tested for a long time. Soon, they fell drunk and were sent back to rest by the servants.

However, Shen Jin's consciousness is still sober, "ha ha. General Li, let's have another drink. "

"Ha ha. Brother Shen, you are drunk. " Li Yuanqing, smiling and waving his hand, motioned to Mr. Shen to have a rest.

Shen Jin is not entangled, laughing and Li Yuanqing greetings.

At this time, a private soldier came to Li Yuanqing and whispered a few words.

Li Yuanqing couldn't help laughing. Guan Canghai was very smooth. He dragged the Shen family's door in Shenfu, which made the sea defense loose. Guan Canghai took Zhang cambai and his party away without much effort.

Shen Jin said with a smile: "I don't know what to do, so happy for General Li?"

Li Yuanqing smiles, "brother Shen, what kind of business do you make the most money in Denglai

Shen Jin was stunned. He didn't expect Li Yuanqing to be so open-minded. He was already drunk for seven or eight minutes. He couldn't help laughing and said, "General Li, you are better at war than I am, but if it comes to business, you certainly don't know what I do. ha-ha. What do you think Denglai makes the most money? Do you need to ask? Private salt, of course. "

Li Yuanqing nodded with a smile, "Denglai is indeed advantageous. I wonder if brother Shen has any way in this respect? "

Although the Shenfu occupies a large area, Li Yuanqing can see that the Shen family is not very rich.

Even though the Denglai Navy strongly controlled Dongjiang's grain and salary profit, the profit of Dongjiang was too small after all. Yuan Keli, a group of civil servants, wanted to take the big head and fell to the Shen family's side.

After all, they did not dare to be too blatant. They could not cross the Dongjiang River clearly and commit the taboo of the imperial court.

Li Yuanqing can also feel that this young master Shen is not very generous.

When Shen Jin heard Li Yuanqing's words, he woke up and said with a smile, "General Li, what do you mean?"

Li Yuanqing smiles, "brother Shen, you should know. The Dongjiang River is barren, and the imperial court's food and salary are very small. It's hard for brothers to support their families by eating, drinking and drinking. "

Shen Jin also understood the meaning of Li Yuanqing, and his excitement could not be concealed: "General Li, do you want to..."

Li Yuanqing said with a smile: "in this respect, brother Shen has to do me a favor to point out the way for me and my brothers..."

……

Li Yuanqing did not choose to stay in Shenfu, but returned to the inn set by his relatives and soldiers nearby.

Back at the inn, Guan Canghai has been waiting here. Seeing Li Yuanqing coming, he quickly reported the story to Li Yuanqing, "general, this piece of cambai is indeed a fat sheep, and his wealth is worth at least 150000 Liang."

Li Yuanqing couldn't help laughing. "Don't worry about it. You should eat your meal one mouthful at a time. It's still as planned. On the black island side, we should try our best to converge in the future, focusing on intelligence. By the way, Canghai, there is one more thing. You should listen to it. "

Li Yuanqing whispered a few words to Guan Canghai.

Guan Canghai nodded repeatedly.

Li Yuanqing smiles, "it's late. The children are also tired. Let's have a rest earlier. "

Guan Canghai also laughed, "yes. I'll quit my humble job. "

Back to the room, but found that the singing girl is trembling at the bedside, see Li Yuanqing come over, she hurried up, "Ye, maids, maids to serve you."

Li Yuanqing smiles, "you don't have to. You are free now. Wherever you want to go. "

She knelt down on the ground and kowtowed desperately, "Sir, do you want a maid? I just want to stay with you. I can be an ox and a horse. "

Li Yuanqing frowned slightly, but the woman was also shrewd.

However, she was not very good-looking and had a bad origin. Li Yuanqing didn't have much interest in him. He sent her to make a bed and send her to take a bath.

After washing his face and lying on the bed, Li Yuanqing's body and mind gradually relaxed.

The position of the Shen family is very critical. Shen yourong and Yuan Keli are closely related. Li Yuanqing did not have enough capital to pull Shen yourong into the water and maintain the same position with Dongjiang or Changsheng island.

But this Shen Jin, Shen childe, is a man of understanding, a little clear.Li Yuanqing has seen the degree of Shen yourong's love for Shen Jin. As long as Shen Jin comes in and can get benefits, he will not worry that Shen yourong will not take the bait.

Denglai has been peaceful for hundreds of years, and various interests have been solidified.

Shen yourong came to Denglai in the first year of Tianqi, and Yuan Keli was later.

Yuan Keli wanted to cherish his feathers. He couldn't have done too much to Denglai. Shen yourong, relying on Yuan Keli's support, could not have done much.

Shen Jin, the son of Shen, is right. In Denglai, the most profitable business is private salt.

Unfortunately, with his energy, he can't do it.

However, there are places and people on Li Yuanqing's side. No matter Changsheng Island, Guanglu island or Lushun Island, or the surrounding islands, there is nothing but lack of seawater.

With Zhang cambai's 30000 Liang silver, Li Yuanqing's urgent need has been solved. There are a lot of Liao people in Dengzhou, which are ready-made resources.

Now, "ah. Help. " Next door suddenly came a female voice exclamation, very sad.
