Chapter 135 This person looks quite pitiful

Moreover, Fei Nanyu trusted Tang Mingrui very much. Shortly after he ascended the throne, he granted the Tang family the title of the only imperial merchant of Daxing Kingdom.

As a result, during Fei Nanyu's reign, the Tang family's business took off and became as wealthy as a country.

Of course, this does not rule out the possibility that the head of the Tang family has a business acumen.

Moreover, history books also mentioned that Tang Mingrui's ancestors had been engaged in business for generations, but they were almost ruined by the schemes of the salt gang.

In order to revive the Tang family, Tang Mingrui, who was only seventeen years old, took his mother and two younger brothers and fled his hometown using the family's only remaining savings.

Later, after years of hard work, he built up a considerable family business again. At the same time, he also secretly collected detailed information about the Salt Gang.

After Nan Qi ascended the throne, Fei Nanyu led people to wipe out the Salt Gang. Tang Mingrui resolutely handed over the information he had collected over the years, and the two became acquainted with each other.

At the same time, He Zhiran and Mo Jiuye both thought of the Tang family that the official had just mentioned.

There is a high possibility that the Tang family mentioned by the official is Tang Mingrui's original family.

At this moment, what He Zhiran was thinking in his mind was not to consider whether Tang Mingrui had any connection with Fei Nanyu.

After arriving in the northwest, in order to make her family live a better life, she must do some profitable business openly to cover up her use of the money in the national treasury.

However, there was a rule in the Dashun Dynasty that if an exiled person did not have a special pardon from the emperor, he would have to live in the place of exile for the rest of his life and could not leave the city.

In this case, the best way is to find a smart businessman to cooperate with.

Thinking of this, He Zhiran felt that the most suitable person to cooperate with her in business was Tang Mingrui.

"Husband, this man looks quite pitiful."

Mo Jiuye naturally understood what she meant.

"Well, I'll go over and take a look."

Mo Chuhan didn't think too much about it and just thought that his ninth brother's wife was a soft-hearted woman.

So, he also prepared to follow Mo Jiuye.

However, Mo Jiuye stopped him.

"Myna, you are weak, just leave this little thing to me."

Mo Chuhan also saw that there were only a few people with knives chasing him, and his ninth brother could easily handle it, so he did not continue to show off.

Since Mo Jiuye chose to take action, he naturally would not leave anyone alive.

What's more, he has never had a good impression of the people from the Salt Gang.

I decided to go all out and just take their lives.

He hid in the dark and aimed his mini sleeve arrows at several members of the Salt Gang.

After a few whooshing sounds, all the members of the Salt Gang were shot in the middle of their eyebrows and lay on the ground.

When Tang Mingrui saw the person chasing him die, he clearly realized that he was saved.

He breathed a sigh of relief and continued walking towards Mo Jiuye.

"My name is Tang Mingrui. Thank you for saving my life."

With the purpose of saving people, Mo Jiuye naturally would not continue hiding.

He glanced around and, seeing that there was no danger, emerged from the darkness.

At the same time, He Zhiran also rushed over.

Tang Mingrui saw a man and a woman appear in front of him, and there was no doubt that he was the one they saved.

He clasped his fists and saluted again: "My benefactor."

Mo Jiuye gave him a little support.

"It's just a matter of seeing injustice. Sir, don't take it too seriously."

When Tang Mingrui was rescued, the first thing he thought of was how to express his gratitude.

He reached into his pocket out of habit, only to find it empty.

He was clearly embarrassed.

"I wanted to give you two some silver as a thank you, but my family has recently encountered some difficult problems..."

Mo Jiuye thought of the records in history books, which showed that Tang Mingrui's future business prospects were limitless. Even if he didn't rescue him today, he would not die here.

Therefore, he did not take the matter of saving people too seriously.

Just when he was about to say "You're welcome", He Zhiran took the lead.

"We are all prisoners exiled by imperial decree, and we are heading to Yuncheng in the northwest.

My husband's name is Mo Jiuye. If you are truly grateful for saving our lives, you can send the money there when you have enough.

We do need some money for our future life."

He Zhiran thought that since she asked Mo Jiuye to save Tang Mingrui, it was for future business cooperation.

Instead of being vague and polite and cutting off possible future contact, it is better to be direct and tell him your name and address so that he can find the right place when he wants to repay you.

Of course, He Zhiran was just gambling by doing this.

After all, the northwest is a barren land and no one wants to set foot there.

It remains unknown whether Tang Mingrui will really repay his kindness and go to the northwest to deliver money in the future.

She did this just to leave herself another way out.

If Tang Mingrui really wants to repay her, it will be an additional way for her to do business in the future.

When Tang Mingrui heard Mo Jiuye's name, he was stunned for a moment.

Obviously, he was not unfamiliar with the name Mo Jiuye.

Tang Mingrui didn't know why the Mohist school had fallen to the point of having its property confiscated and exiled.

Since he was a child, he often heard storytellers talk about the heroic deeds of Mohist men in killing the enemies. Therefore, he had a very deep impression of the Mohist family.

Especially a few years ago, the third master of the Mo family personally brought people here to crack down on the evildoers of the Salt Gang.

He still clearly remembered the scene when the Third Master of the Mo Family pushed the then Salt Gang boss into the prison van.

This incident was praised by the people around the salt lake for a long time, especially the Third Master of the Mo family, who was praised by the people as even more miraculous.

Who would have thought that in just a few years, times had changed, and the men of the Mohist School had died in battle one after another, and now they had their property confiscated and were exiled.

She thought that after saying this, Tang Mingrui would think she was too realistic and would just be polite on the surface and leave.

Unexpectedly, after hearing her words, Tang Mingrui became even more humble.

"My family crossed the river by boat yesterday and are now waiting for me to join them in the ferry town.

It's a must-go place on the way to the northwest. I haven't decided where to take my family yet, so why not follow the benefactors? I can also find a way to earn some money along the way."

Hearing this, He Zhiran agreed without hesitation.

"It seems that we are destined to be with Master Tang. Let's go together! We'll have someone to look after us along the way."

Tang Mingrui looked around and pointed at the bodies of several salt gang members on the ground and said:

“Just now, my benefactor took their lives in order to save me. I’m afraid they will be discovered tomorrow morning.

The Salt Gang is so numerous and powerful, I cannot trouble you any further, so I will not bother you any more. I will wait for you at the dock in Ducheng tomorrow."

He Zhiran and Mo Jiuye were not afraid of the people from the Salt Gang, but no one wanted to cause trouble.

Therefore, they all agreed with Tang Mingrui's decision.

"Okay, see you tomorrow when we cross the city."

After Mo Jiuye finished speaking, he took He Zhiran's hand and left together. After reuniting with Mo Chuhan, they returned to the camp at the same time.

He took the lead and made a gesture to Liang Hao and others not far away. Soon, Liang Hao brought his men over.
