I made a fortune by marrying a sickly woman!

Before the head of the Liu family received the news.

Song Jin also received the news and learned that the fleet that dared to stop the Liu family and confront them, and even caused them to retreat, was most likely a royal relative.

Could it be a prince?

Qin Ba asked, "Do you want to ask again?"

"No need, it has little to do with us. It would be taboo and bring trouble upon ourselves."

Song Jin stopped Qin Ba and others from asking any more questions.

No matter what, she still has to be grateful to the other party this time.

Without the other party in front, the Liu family might always focus on her merchant ship.

You have to know that other people are not like Song Jin, who used the name of Governor Wang to cheat the head of the Liu family of many things.

"Before we leave, send someone to deliver 10,000 silver notes to Dinghai Garrison. It will be a donation from our Jifang merchant ship. We thank them for protecting the peace of this sea area."

Song Jin spoke very righteously.

Xing Lun immediately asked someone to do so.

The Liu family failed to find anyone and evacuated most of their personnel.

But it’s not that no one is watching.

The news that Song Jin's men had gone to the garrison again soon reached the head of the Liu family. It was just that no one knew what Song Jin was going to do. But since people had accepted his apology, they would not complain again.

And Governor Wang happened to be still in the garrison.

I received another donation from the Jifang caravan, but I was still confused.

Especially after hearing Xing Lun's retelling of Song Jin's words, Governor Wang and Lieutenant General Shen knew that it was bullshit.

Dinghai Guard Station had just been established.

How can we protect someone when the navy is not yet formed?

But the other person found an excuse to give them silver, and was very generous with ten thousand taels. They could only accept it with tears in their eyes, and gave Xing Lun a few words of encouragement, which made Xing Lun look very grateful.

Both sides are good at acting and understand each other tacitly.

Brigadier General Shen also personally escorted Xing Lun back to the dock.

However, Song Jin took the opportunity to say goodbye to Lieutenant General Shen.

Brigadier General Shen, with a dozen soldiers, rode on horses and waited at the dock, watching Song Jin's fleet leave the port.

Song Jin was still standing on the deck, waving goodbye to Admiral Shen on the shore, with a familiar look on his face, "Next time I come to Fuzhou, I'll go drink with you again! I won't leave until I'm drunk."

Hearing this, Lieutenant General Shen laughed.

What does "again" mean?

Have they been drinking before?

However, when Lieutenant General Shen saw that Song Jin gave another ten thousand taels, he raised his arm and waved as a response.

This response is not simple.

The spies who were observing secretly immediately confirmed the rumor that Song Jin had a close relationship with Governor Wang or Lieutenant General Shen.

The Liu family also received the news soon.

If the relationship was not close, why would he come in person to send it off?

Yes, everyone thought it was Brigadier General Shen, who came specially to see Song Jin and others off, so that the head of the Liu family, who didn't want anyone to leave the port, couldn't react.

"Did Boss Song's caravan decide to leave at the last minute, or had they been planning to leave this morning?" asked Patriarch Liu suspiciously.

The investigator replied, "According to the number of days they rented the dock, they should have left yesterday. It seems that Second Master stole Boss Song's cargo, causing him to delay leaving for a day. According to the investigation, their fleet completed the replenishment yesterday."

"So the time for leaving has already been set?"

The head of the Liu family thought about it again and again, but couldn't find any flaws.

Compared to Song Jin's caravan, the fleet that was not allowed to be searched was more suspicious.

A distinguished person from the capital?

A jade pendant with a dragon pattern on it?

Nine out of ten times they are royal relatives or nobles.

As a royal nobleman, coming to remote Fuzhou was very suspicious no matter how you looked at it.

The Liu family had not heard any news before that any noble person was coming here or coming here on purpose.

Song Jin stood on the deck.

The sea breeze made his clothes rustle, and as he looked at the pier that was gradually moving away, Song Jin's heart was filled with emotions.

"I didn't expect that he left so easily." Qin Qi felt incredible.

This expresses Song Jin's inner thoughts.

Xing Lun chuckled and said, "This is not simple at all."

"Yes, it wasn't easy, but it was all thanks to Alan."

Song Jin knew that General Shen would come to see him off, and it was most likely Xing Lun did it on purpose.

At that time, Xing Lun was asked to deliver the banknotes.

Song Jin simply borrowed the power of Governor Wang and Lieutenant General Shen to make the Liu family cautious and cautious, so that they could get through safely.

If it weren't for the reputation of these two people, the Liu family would not have been so polite to Song Jin, let alone given generous compensation.

Therefore, after Song Jin ate meat, he would always give people some soup.

This has always been Song Jin's principle of doing things. She sent ten thousand taels so that when Governor Wang and Lieutenant General Shen heard about the incident at the dock and thought about the origin of the ten thousand taels, they would not hold any grudges and might even think that she was capable of handling things.

It is something that can intersect.

This is the sophistication of the world.

It would be different if I hadn’t sent this money.

Being used by others to gain benefits while you yourself have not gained any benefits, you will feel a little uncomfortable if you put yourself in their shoes. Song Jin's move can be regarded as eliminating the hidden danger.

But Song Jin didn't expect Xing Lun to be so outstanding.

Even Lieutenant General Shen was tricked into coming here.

With Lieutenant General Shen present, the Liu family would not dare to intercept their merchant ship from leaving even if they wanted to.

But Song Jin didn't know to wait for their ship to leave.

Brigadier General Shen did not return the same way he came, but was invited to board a large ship that was suspected to be carrying a "noble person".

The departure of Song Jin's fleet and the movement of the twenty-five large ships attracted the attention of the other cargo ships that were originally docked at the dock. Especially after the commotion at the Liu family last night, some ships also wanted to leave.

Seeing that no one intercepted Song Jin's fleet.

Some fleets did not want to cause trouble and left one after another.

Now the departure of Song Jin's caravan was even less noticeable.

This time Song Jin was going back to Huizhou, taking the inland waterway and still had to pass through Jianning Prefecture.

Qin Yixin was worried: "Madam, aren't you worried that the Liu family will intercept you?"

"No need to have any problem."

Song Jin knew very well that if it weren't for Brigadier General Shen or the nobleman from the capital leading the way, he might have some concerns.

Now there is no need to worry at all.

It's even safer to take this route.

For the Liu family, this was equivalent to walking into a trap. The problem was that the other party wanted to find out if there was anything wrong with their fleet.

"Once we get to the river mouth, we'll spend some money to ask the garrisoned navy to escort us for a while." Song Jin suddenly made another decision.

Zhou Wei was stunned. "Didn't the boss say he wasn't worried?"

"The suspicion has been cleared, but I'm worried that the goods on the ship will be targeted by someone with ulterior motives." Song Jin knew that some bargains were not so easy to take advantage of.

Who knows if there will be anyone in the Liu family who is angry?

Knowing that Song Jin was worried about this, Xing Lun and others also understood.

It is normal to hire someone to escort a fleet outside, just like the canal gangs on the Grand Canal. They have to spend a sum of money every time they make a trip, and it is not easy to have peace without spending money.

Entered Jianjiang.

We asked the guards to escort us, and the journey was very safe.

Song Jin will not continue to travel north with the fleet.

You will go ashore at Jianxi and take the land route back to Huizhou Prefecture.
