Seeing that the New Year is approaching, several ship owners have made their words clear, so they can't just not show any expression, right?

Then I thought, if our own people cannot show their faces in front of Lord Shen, then showing the goods would also be showing their faces, right?

Before Wang Guangjin could refuse, he was stuffed with gifts by many boat owners: "President Wang, this is the signature silk of my Wang's Company. Take two pieces to have a look. I also have a shop in Liuyang Prefecture. If you think the goods are good, come to Wang's Silk Shop to find me! Oh, we all have the surname Wang, so we are from the same family. Who knows, we might have been a family a hundred years ago!"

"President Wang! This is the porcelain from my Liu's Porcelain Shop. The patterns on it are all painted by famous painters. Please take two sets to have a look..."

"President Wang, President Wang..."

Wang Guangjin couldn't put the things down, so the boat owners spontaneously placed the things at his feet, as if they were confining him to the shore.

In his arms were silks and ready-made clothes, and as he walked forward were exquisite porcelains. To his left were baskets of fresh fruits, and to his right was a box of pens, ink, paper, and inkstones. Even his heels were piled with objects!

Wang Guang had never been treated like this since he entered and exited Tongan County. He was a little at a loss for a moment.

He looked at Shen Zheng's back and shouted, "Sir, wait for me..."

......

The boat floating on the river was getting closer and closer. The two boatmen pursed their lips tightly, said nothing, and just wanted to row quickly to take the gentleman on the boat to the shore.

On the boat, Wei Que stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the river bank. The river breeze made his hair and clothes flutter, but it still could not disturb his sight in the slightest.

He had experienced docking by boat countless times, but except for the time he landed to serve as the deputy governor of the Grain Transport Bureau, no other time had made him so excited.

Liuyang Mansion, he is back.

Tongan County, he is back. Bringing with him the hopes and expectations of the people, he returned from the westernmost part of the Great Zhou to this place that has appeared many times in his mind.

The people on the shore raised their hands high and waved them back and forth, greeting him.

Wei Que was infected by the other party's joy and couldn't help but stretch out a hand, waving it while shouting: "Sir Shen, I have fulfilled my mission. I am back!"

The boat docked, and Shen Zheng took two steps forward. Mo Jinyin followed behind her. Looking at the burly man walking up to the shore, she didn't dare to breathe heavily.

It was this feeling. The feeling this man gave him was exactly the same as the feeling Shen Zheng gave him. It made him feel uncomfortable and he didn't even dare to look him in the eye.

"Master Wei!"

Seeing Wei Que, Shen Zheng felt an indescribable excitement. Perhaps it was because Wang Guangjin was the first to get off the boat and "run home" alone, so she felt a sense of excitement of "welcoming the return of relatives and friends" from Wei Que.

As soon as Wei Que stepped onto the shore, he stopped, then he raised his legs and stomped them hard twice, then jumped twice under the gaze of Shen Zheng and others.

"It feels so good!" He strode towards Shen Zheng, his voice full of pride: "I've been on the boat for most of the trip, and now I finally feel like I'm on solid ground! Lord Shen, we finally meet!"

Shen Zheng smiled and walked forward, looking at him for a moment: "Master Wei, you have worked hard on the journey. You are also tanned, but it is better than Wang Guangjin... a little bit."

Wang Guangjin's black was a little too "bright" and looked a little out of place.

But Wei Que was the opposite. Under the polish of the scorching sun and wind and sand, he not only did not grow old and ugly, but his whole body became more tough, like a wolf waiting for an opportunity in the desert.

Wei Que raised his hand and looked at it, then said with a smile: "I think this looks good, what do you think, Lord Shen?"

Shen Zheng gave a thumbs up and nodded vigorously - an affirmation from Shen Zheng.

Wei Que chuckled and turned his gaze to Mo Jinyin. Mo Jinyin forced himself to smile at him and introduced himself: "Sir, I am the manager of the dock, my last name is Mo..."

Although Wei Que was on the boat, he was neither blind nor deaf. When he heard that the other party was the dock manager, his face immediately turned unhappy and he didn't even glance at Mo Jinyin.

He first turned his head to look at the cargo ship still lined up behind him, and after thinking for a moment, he said to Shen Zheng: "Master Shen, our ship cannot be unloaded for a while."

Shen Zheng smiled when she heard this and winked at him: "Don't worry, Lord Wei. Steward Mo said that our boat can be unloaded today. You haven't eaten yet, right? Let's go have a meal first?"

Shen Zheng was a little hungry. Neither she, Wang Guangjin, nor Mo Qingwan had had lunch yet.

Wei Que immediately understood the meaning of her words, "Then let's do as Lord Shen says."

Upon hearing this, Mo Jinyin stepped forward immediately and said, "Master Wei, Master Shen, the food and wine at my Mo's Restaurant are the best in the city. May I take you there?"

There is no doubt that Mo Jinyin was rejected.

Shen Zheng would never do anything that would cause trouble for Mo Qingwan.

In the end, it was Mo Qingwan, a local, who recommended a restaurant, and the four of them got on a carriage and went there together.

Mo Jinyin looked at the rear of the carriage going away and spat on the ground: "Why are you so arrogant? Without me, you won't be able to find good wine anywhere!"

Manager Yu stood not far away, looking at him, as if thinking about something.

......

In the carriage, Wang Guangjin told the story vividly and even imitated the stories when he got excited.

"When he heard that our masters thought 300 coins were too much, he looked so proud! He must have felt that he was outshined by our masters!"

Wei Que laughed loudly, and Shen Zheng and Mo Qingwan just felt like someone was beating a drum next to their ears!

This guy has such a loud voice!

While chatting and laughing, the few of them arrived at the restaurant. Mo Qingwan thought that since they came at a different time from dinner, they would be able to have a private room, but unexpectedly, the waiter looked apologetic and said, "Miss, the private room is being renovated these few days, which is different from dinner time..."

For a moment, Mo Qingwan felt a little embarrassed, feeling that he, a local, had led the wrong way.

Just when she wanted to discuss it with the waiter, Shen Zheng pulled her to the lobby and said to the waiter, "Let's sit here. The food in the lobby is delicious. Qingwan, order some food."

Mo Qingwan stared at Shen Zheng blankly.

The gentleman surnamed Wei had gone out to do some shopping and has just returned. He must have something important to say to Lord Shen.

If there were no private room...some things would be inconvenient to say.

Lord Shen not only did not take it to heart, but also helped himself out of the predicament.

This was not the first time that the other party had done this. He easily and silently resolved his unspeakable embarrassment.

Mo Qingwan stared at Shen Zheng blankly for a moment, and then, as if he had made up his mind, he took a deep breath and looked at the food signs on the counter.

"Boiled chicken." Mo Qingwan ordered the first dish.

"..."

"Green boat cruising the lake." Mo Qingwan ordered the last dish.

"Hmm?" Shen Zheng looked at the dish sign and asked curiously, "What is this dish?"

The waiter scratched his head and said, "Cabbage leaf soup."
