I made a fortune by marrying a sickly woman!

Before the palace examination.

Gongsheng also needs to learn relevant etiquette, including visiting teachers to obtain guidance and advice, or participating in some pilgrimage activities to obtain the required recommendation books. More importantly, they need to review the political atmosphere, which simply means the examiner's impression of the Gongsheng or his character.

With such poor character, it will be difficult for him to become an official in the court.

After finishing the relevant matters, Qin Chi closed the door and refused to see visitors again.

It is precisely because of his low-key style that the rumors about him in the outside world gradually subsided.

Qin Mingsong did come here once.

I came to say goodbye to Qin Chi and Song Jin.

After careful consideration, Qin Mingsong decided to take Song Xiu back to Huizhou and wait three years before taking the imperial examination again.

Qin Chi was happy to hear it.

Being a considerate nephew, he specially found a caravan for the two of them to travel with. Song Jin also bought some special products from the capital, and asked Qin Mingsong to take them back to his grandparents in the name of Qin Chi, as a show of filial piety.

Qin Chi acquiesced to Song Jin's approach.

"My wife is really considerate." This reputation of filial piety cannot be lost.

Song Jin did not buy any for Boss Qin and Li.

This is because every time the caravan of Shun'an Trading Company passed through Shuntian Prefecture, Song Jin would prepare some gifts for the caravan to take back.

The things prepared this time were asked to be taken back by Qin Mingsong. There was a filial intention in mind, but not much. A big reason was that in this world, Qin Chi needed a reputation of being filial to his elders, and it was also for the Qinjiagou clan members and outsiders to see.

Song Jin had never seen Song Xiu before she left Beijing.

It is said that the whole person became silent and taciturn.

The eve of the palace examination.

Song Jin already knew what Yang Ge Lao wanted Qin Chi to do, and couldn't help but feel a little worried, "Husband, are you really going to do this?"

"I can't resist with my current identity."

Qin Chi took the test and faced the actual situation.

In addition, the matter of the Yuan family does need to be resolved. In the palace, he will be a good gun for the Yang family, and as everyone knows, he cannot get away with it.

Then, it would be difficult for the Yang family to remain unscathed.

During this period of time, Qin Chi stayed indoors and appeared in public as a weak person.

The affairs of the Yang and Yuan families cannot be stopped from being investigated by those who are interested.

Song Jin asked again: "Will it be dangerous?"

"will not."

Qin Chi said with certainty.

Seeing this, Song Jin did not ask any more questions and carefully prepared the necessities for Qin Chi to take the exam.

The palace is the highest level in the imperial examination.

The examination hall was located in Baohedian in the palace and was presided over by the emperor himself.

Song Jin had no chance to go in and take a look.

She sent Qin Chi into the palace. Standing outside the palace gate, she looked at the heavily guarded palace gate and the towering palace walls. They were like giant beasts that had devoured countless lives.

This is the awe from both Song and Jin.

"Madam, do you want to go back?" Qin Qi asked in a low voice.

Song Jin said: "Go back."

People around were looking at Song Jin.

Qin Qi blocked the outsiders' view with his body without leaving any trace, and protected Song Jin as he boarded the carriage.

Entering the car, it also blocks the gaze from outside.

After returning home, Song Jin never left the house.

During the time when Qin Chi participated in the palace examination, Song Jin changed into men's clothes and went to Jifang Pharmacy. In addition, he went to the dock to meet Xing Lun and others. It was Jifang's fleet that arrived at the canal transport dock in Zhangjiawan.

The batch of goods imported from Fuzhou before.

After passing through many places, we finally arrived in the capital.

"Boss." Xing Lun got off the boat to greet him.

Song Jin smiled and said, "Let's get on board first if we have anything to say."

Xing Lun and others moved aside to make way, and Song Jin was the first to pass them and step onto the cargo ship.

When people talk in the cabin, they are not afraid of being overheard by outsiders.

Song Jin looked around, "Is Zhou Wei not here?"

"His mother forced her to get married in Huizhou." After saying this, Xing Lun laughed out loud.

Song Jin was surprised, "Arrested?"

"Yes, he always said that he couldn't get married without a career, so Aunt Ling chased him all over the street with a spatula in hand." Xing Lun told Song Jin about some of the things that happened in Huizhou.

Song Jin couldn't help laughing.

Actually, if you think about it, you are not young anymore.

Zhou Wei should have gotten married a long time ago, but he had to accompany her on business and couldn't spare the time, which delayed it until now. Jin Ling insisted that Zhou Wei go to see her this time no matter what.

Song Jin turned to look at Xing Lun, whose smile was still pure, and said, "Alun, it's time for you to get married."

At this time in his previous life, he had already been married twice.

Having avoided those unreliable marriages in this life, he has yet to get married.

Xing Lun smiled faintly and said embarrassedly: "My parents never urged me to get married. A Wei is not like me. He has an older brother to carry on the family line. I have been wandering outside for many years, and it is not good for me to harm a girl from a good family."

Song Jin was unable to respond to this.

Xing Lun took over the management of Songjin's business outside Huizhou.

In a year, he is even busier than Song Jin.

"Boss, don't think too much. I have no intention of getting married for the time being. If I meet a girl I like in the future, I will not miss her without the elders urging me." Xing Lun smiled calmly.

Since he had said so, Song Jin didn't want to bring it up again.

Xing Lun took out the account book and started talking about business.

Due to the cooperation with the Song family branch, Xing Lun represented Song Jin. Every time they docked at the pier, there were local people who were responsible for handling some formalities, so they did not encounter many troubles. If they occasionally encountered someone who was not careful enough, there were people to help deal with it.

Xing Lun added: "Shun'an Commercial Bank has a batch of goods here, and someone will come to take over later."

"Go ahead, I'll check the account book first."

Song Jin gestured to Xing Lun to go and get busy first.

After Xing Lun left, Song Jin buried his head in his work.

Just when she was halfway through reading, she heard a noise coming from outside. She stood up and walked out of the cabin, and saw the manager of Shun'an Trading Company in the capital, who was bringing people and carriages to move the goods.

The goods of Shunan Trading Company alone occupied two cargo ships.

As for why it's so lively outside.

Because some merchants were waiting at the dock, waiting for the caravan to ship goods, when they saw Shunan's manager moving goods, they naturally came over to inquire.

after awhile.

Xing Lun came over, wiping the sweat off his face. "The handover is finally complete."

"Drink some tea and take your time."

Song Jin gestured to Xing Lun to pour himself some tea.

Xing Lun didn't hesitate to pour himself a full bowl of tea, which he drank in one gulp. He then poured himself another bowl, "Are you going to sell the goods on the boss's ship? Several families on the shore are asking."

"Have those who said they would come to pick up the goods last year come yet?" Song Jin asked.

Xing Lun said: "I have sent someone to notify them."

Is this why no one has come yet?

Song Jin thought about the recent martial law in the city because of the imperial examination, and felt that it was understandable, "Wait for them for two more days. If they don't come after two days, sell it to someone else."

"This shipment is quite large, they may not be able to eat it all."

Xing Lun was thinking about whether to open a store of his own. He told Song Jin about this idea, but was rejected. He was a little unwilling to give up and said, "Are we really not going to open a store? We can make more money by opening our own store."

“There is no end to the money you can make.”

Song Jin knew that he couldn't be greedy when doing business. "We also need to grasp a certain limit so that this profitable business can continue for a long time. If we offend some powerful people, our good days will be over."

"Thank you for the reminder, Master."

Xing Lun thanked him with lingering fear.
