Being a tour guide for historical celebrities, the motherland is amazed again

"You guys, are you really going?" Song Yingsheng said in disbelief. "The journey to Jiangnan is long, and the world is not peaceful. Will you encounter any accidents along the way?"

"Even if I give it a try, it's better than living in seclusion here." Song Yingxing seemed to have made up his mind, "Brother, if I go to Jiangnan in the future, this family will be handed over to you."

Seeing that he couldn't persuade his brother, Song Yingsheng could only sigh and agree silently.

After seeing his brother off, Song Yingxing quietly returned to his room and sorted out his books and manuscripts.

"Brother Wang, please allow me some time to prepare. The weather is very hot now. We will head to Jiangnan when it cools down a bit."

"No problem, I need to make some plans first. It's a long journey, so let's bring some extra things."

Su Jiahe discovered that the things she brought back to modern times last time were almost used up.

"How about I go back again and bring back some things?"

"Okay, but you have to hurry. If you're gone for a month, we might all be gone by the time you come back," said Wang Mang.

"I will try my best."

This time, Su Jiahe put on modern clothes in advance, traveled back to the modern era, and ran to the nearest supermarket without stopping.

"Sister Su, what are you doing?" He Shuangqing was startled by Su Jiahe's sudden appearance.

"I'm going to the supermarket." Su Jiahe ran out of the house without explaining in detail.

"Ah, didn't you just go there?" He Shuangqing was confused.

Su Jiahe bought two large carts full of items, put them into the storage ring, and put them back on in a hurry.

"Brother Wang, how long did it take me this time?"

"That's not bad, it's only about half a month." Wang Mang said, "It's already autumn, so it's time for us to set off."

In Su Jiahe's villa, a group of people looked at each other in surprise.

"Sister Su is so weird. She suddenly appears every once in a while and then runs away in a hurry." Liu Ziluan said.

"Yes, she said she traveled back in time to find Brother Wang, so why did she come back so often to shop?" He Shuangqing was also puzzled.

"Is it possible that a large amount of supplies are needed over there, and those supplies are only available in modern times, so Sister Su keeps running back and forth." Daji had an idea.

"I think what Sister Su said makes sense." Liu Zhun nodded in agreement. "Let's prepare supplies for Sister Su in advance so she doesn't have to go out so often."

"But what does Sister Su need? We don't know how to prepare anything. We can only wait for Sister Su to come next time and ask her." Liu Zixun said.

"But we are not sure when she will come, so we can't just sit and wait. Think about it, what is the most lacking thing compared to the past?" Daji once again demonstrated her intelligence.

"There are a lot of things missing, including dry food, medicine, winter clothes, and many daily necessities. We didn't have them in the past, which is very inconvenient." He Shuangqing counted them one by one.

"That's right, we have these things at home and they are easy to buy nearby. Let's prepare them for Sister Su quickly." Daji said impatiently.

"Okay, let's go out and buy some." Liu Jun quickly stood up and picked up his coat.

"No, no, with so many things, we would have to run multiple times. It would be better to just ask someone to deliver them to our door." Daji said, skillfully opening a group app.

"Daji, why are you so smart today? You are responsible for buying food, and I will be responsible for buying daily necessities." He Shuangqing also took out his mobile phone.

"Let's see if there's anything useful at home and take it all out, just in case Sister Su needs it." Liu Jun took the other two boys and started sorting things out.

……

Song Yingxing arranged for carriages and horses, and the group set off for Jiangnan.

"Brother Wang, when we arrive in Jiangnan, where should we stay?" Song Yingxing asked.

"Let's go to Yingtian first. After all, it's the capital, so it should be prosperous and conducive to our business."

"Brother Wang, how much money do you need? Otherwise, I can go back and exchange some gold and bring it over." Su Jiahe said.

"No need, keep those millions for yourself." Wang Mang waved his hand. "Those small amounts of money are useless."

"A few million is just a small amount of money. Brother Wang, you are really generous."

The carriage was bumpy all the way, and Su Jiahe felt like her whole body was falling apart as she sat in it.

"Why are these roads so rough? Will they be smoother in the south?"

"This is already the flattest official road. It was like this in ancient times. You'll just get used to it." Wang Mang leaned against the carriage and said calmly.

The road was very desolate, many villages were dilapidated, and ragged refugees could be seen everywhere.

"Jiangxi was once a land of fish and rice, but in recent years, natural disasters and endless wars have occurred, and it has become a hell on earth." Song Yingxing looked at the scene outside the carriage and his eyes became red.

After nearly two months of arduous journey, the group finally arrived in Yingtian. Unlike the desolate and dilapidated streets of other provinces, Yingtian's streets were still bustling with chrysanthemums in full bloom.

On the first day in Yingtian, Wang Mang and his group stayed temporarily in a luxurious inn.

"Brother Wang, let's save some money." Song Yingxing said.

"Mr. Song, we are businessmen now. We need to make others think you are generous in order to do business. If you are stingy, others will think you are not capable and no one will want to do business with you."

"I have never done business before, so I will just follow your arrangements, Brother Wang." Song Yingxing also felt that what Wang Mang said made some sense.

The inn was right on the bank of the Qinhuai River. As night fell, the three of them were watching the scenery by the river. They saw two rows of lights on the river bank, and painted boats floating back and forth on the river. In the distance, they could faintly hear charming singing, music, and teasing voices.

"It turns out that the Qinhuai River was so lively in ancient times." Wang Mang exclaimed.

"The merchant girl knows nothing of the sorrow of losing her country, and still sings the song of the back garden across the river." Song Yingxing shook his head, his tone angry.

"Mr. Song, the merchant women sing only to make a living. The crime of the country's destruction cannot be blamed on them." Su Jiahe said.

"Yeah, I think so too. The ones who deserve it are those who listen to them sing." Wang Mang echoed.

"This poem has been passed down for hundreds of years. Your insights are quite novel, but they also make some sense."

In the next few days, Wang Mang bought a store in the central area of ​​Yingtian and named it "Juqige". He and his employees did business in the front yard, while Song Yingxing continued to study new technologies in the back yard.

Within a few days, various fresh products such as soaps, antibiotics, Chinese herbal essential oils, etc. attracted countless customers to buy them, and "Juqige" soon became famous far and wide.

"Brother Wang, you really have a talent for business." Su Jiahe said in admiration as he looked at the ever-growing numbers in the account.

"Of course, I started from scratch, with no capital and no skills, and it was much harder than it is now. However, we are still making money too slowly, and I'm afraid it will be too late." Wang Mang did not show any happiness, but was worried instead.

"Is this still slow? How much money do we need?"

"According to historical trends, the Qing army will reach the south by April next year. Before that, we must earn enough money to resist, or at least support Mr. Song in manufacturing advanced firearms."
