Mu Jian was criticizing articles for his two sons, and frowned and criticized him from time to time.

The eldest son Mu Xing stood up to be taught very well, but the younger son Mu Yan secretly hid behind the eldest brother's back and winked.

Seeing this, Mu Jian picked up the book on the table and knocked him on the head, and said angrily: "If you don't study well all day, you're frivolous!"

This time it knocked very lightly, but Mu Yan still covered his head and screamed in pain. Later, he looked around quietly. When he heard someone knocking on the door outside, he rushed over.

Mu Jian shook his head. He was reluctant to give up on this talented young son, so he had a headache.

When Mu Yan opened the door and saw that it was the maid in the backyard, he turned around and said, "Father, I'm looking for you."

"master."

The maid came in and gave Mu Jian a secret wink. He stood up and said, "You will do two more articles and look back and check for the father. If you do it perfunctorily, break your legs!"

"Yes, father."

Seeing that my father was leaving, Mu Yan smiled and replied.

Mu Jian shook his head, then couldn't help laughing, his eyes became softer, and then he left the study with the maid and asked in a low voice: "What's the matter?"

The maid said, "Master, Li Er is back, at his mother's place."

Mu Jian's eyebrows immediately turned into Leng Su, and the maid continued, "Master, his blind mother came out every day a few days ago to ask if Li Er had come back, and she fell a lot."

While walking to the backyard, Mu Jian explained: "Be careful next time, don't let her fall to death."

After arriving at the backyard, Mu Jian went to the inner study room, and the maid went to find Li Er.

Li Er brought some food back and was serving his mother's food. When he saw the maid coming in, he forced her to look at her with his eyes, then put the snacks in his mother's hands, and whispered: "Mom, I'll explain to the master about business and come back later."

The old woman looked out the door blankly and said, "Don't you come back earlier, mom misses you!"

Li Er said softly: "Okay, the child will be back later."

...

The two of them went all the way to the outside of the inner study room, and the maid did not hide her contempt and said, "The master is inside."

Li Er thought of the scratches on my mother's palm, turned his head to look at the maid and said, "Who bullied my mother, be careful that her head disappeared at night!"

The maid was startled by his indifferent tone. After taking a step back, she felt a little weak, so she put her hips on her hips and said, "If you are talking nonsense, believe it or not, let your mother eat water next time!"

Li Er smiled slightly and nodded, "I will be back for a long time this time, you can try it."

After saying that, he entered the inner study room. The maid stood there, biting her red lips and hating her for a while, then turned around and returned. Her waist twisted like a water snake...

...

In the inner study room, Mu Jian was reading a book. After hearing the footsteps, he did not look up and ordered: "Close the door."

Li Er closed the door and said, "Master, this trip was quite smooth, and the goods were sold."

Mu Jian still didn't look up and asked, "What have you changed back?"

Li Er said: "Those people have a lot of spices, but you have told me that it is best to be gold and silver. Most of the smaller ones have exchanged gold and silver, and they also have some spices."

"idiot!"

Mu Jian looked up and said majesticly: "I have said that gold and silver are good, but spices are indispensable. When the treasure ship in the court stops, the spices will be lacking in the future. They will be valuable and worth a lot of money! Do you understand?"

Li Er lowered his head, "Yes, the little one was wrong."

Mu Jian looked at him coldly and said, "Remember, I will make you regret it if you make your own decision next time!"

Li Er lowered his head and responded. Mu Jian suddenly smiled and said, "Okay, you have worked hard to go out to sea and haven't had a good rest yet. Go back. I asked the kitchen to send a table over for you, mother and son to enjoy."

"Thank you, Master."

Li Er calmly bowed and closed the study door.

The room became a little dark. Mu Jian looked at the door, and a sneer gradually floated on the corner of his mouth, and the book in his hand was gradually tightened...

"Father, after finishing two articles, I'm going to go out for spring with my classmates."

The sneer disappeared in an instant, and Mu Jian shouted, "If you dare to go, break your legs!"

Mu Yan's voice outside became farther and farther away: "Dad, if you don't go, you will be laughed at. The child will go home soon..."

Mu Jian pushed open the door with a smile on his lips, and watched his youngest son running towards the front yard with vitality. He couldn't help but shake his head slightly and smiled, "This guy!"

...

A fleet came to Ningbo Prefecture. When the fleet transported out a lot of spices, it was regarded as a fleet from Peking.

Zheng He brought back a large amount of spices when he voyage to the West, and he couldn't use them all and could not deliver them. Recently, Xia Yuanji from Peking has been urging the emperor to cash in on the spices, so a lot of them were put into the southern market.

When it was evening, many people came down from the boat. Some patrol soldiers went to ask questions. They were frightened by the waist card that was the first one, and then cursed and swore that they had done nothing bad.

"Go, if the news about our family is leaked, the whole family will be killed!"

There was a lantern next to it, which made Li Jing's face look pale and miserable. The team of soldiers immediately left.

Fang Xing then walked out from behind and said, "It's better to have the reputation of your Dongchang, go to the city."

At the city gate, Li Jing took out the document for purchasing fabrics given by Zhu Zhanji and entered the city smoothly.

"There are more than a hundred people, right?"

After they entered the city, the soldiers couldn't help but stumble on their tongues.

"Dog eunuch, what a big scene!"

"Shut up! Do you want to cause trouble for us?"

The eunuch is not very broad-minded. If Li Jing knew what he said just now, these soldiers would be in trouble.

After entering the city, the group quietly entered a large mansion and rested.

But Fang Xing couldn't rest. From when Li Jing was waiting on the shore, he knew that Zhu Zhanji was more anxious about pushing to go to sea than he did.

The owner of this big house is a wealthy businessman, but he is a little unlucky recently because he operates luxury goods but does not pay taxes. He was greeted by the people from the East Factory "kindly" and is currently waiting for punishment at home.

Fang Xing's residence was just a small courtyard. By then, Fang Xing had already taken a shower and was eating noodles. When he saw him come in, he pointed at the opposite side of him, then ate the noodles in a slight manner and said comfortably: "I always feel something is wrong on the boat. It turns out that it is a bad feeling of land. I always feel that eating is not good."

Li Jing waited for him to wipe his mouth before saying, "Boy Xinghe, Your Highness has found out that the man is in Ningbo Prefecture, but he cannot further find out who it is."

Fang Xing took a sip of tea and felt a little sleepy, saying, "The man is called Li Er, and the person who controls him behind him also took his mother. Ningbo Mansion is not small and it is difficult to investigate, so we have to start with the gold, silver and spices they exchanged."

Li Jing said happily: "That's great. Gold and silver must be transported. Our family will be able to stare at the avenue of Ningbo Mansion and wait for them to enter the Internet later."

“It’s not that easy.”

Fang Xing frowned and said, "Then Li Er is very alert, so he will not move for the time being if he doesn't do it well."

Li Jing analyzed, "Brother, since Li Er is filial, can we make use of it?"

Fang Xing nodded in appreciation and said, "I am going to show off at the right time to let people know where to live."

"Does it be a shaking tiger?"

Li Jing smiled and said, "My uncle is a good method!"

"Just fishing, be careful here and don't hang it with Ningbo Mansion. I'm worried that there will be a connection between them."
