Tang Haitai's recent days have suddenly become better, which surprised the officials in the governor's yamen. Thinking about Tang Haitai's face was down and not much money was left in his hand. It was impossible to go to a restaurant or brothel at all times. It was often enough to stay alone in the house and drink drunk. Getting drunk is even more common.

Unexpectedly, Tang Haitai began to become more casual. He would always go out with his head raised and he would not look drunk when he came back. Although he was still smelling alcohol, everyone could still see his comfortable temperament.

The officials in the Governor's yamen couldn't help but admire Tang Haitai. They had such a fate. Although they lost their support and could not get the attention of the Governor, they still had money and could still be free. Everyone knew that with that pitiful salary, they thought about going to restaurants and brothels every day, and they probably couldn't sell themselves.

In today's era, being rich is also an extraordinary ability. If you are an official, and you have money, you will be the object of envy. No matter what, Tang Haitai was once the censor of the Censorate and a seventh-rank official in Beijing. When he arrived in Liaodong, he entered the Governor's yamen and was also a sixth-rank governor. Maybe he would be lucky in the future and return to the capital. He would have a great possibility to become a doctor of the sixth-rank department of the fifth-rank department. He should not behave like a person. Who can determine the future of others? Therefore, the officials of the Governor's yamen have also quietly changed their views on Tang Haitai.

Snobbish has been a tradition for thousands of years, and no one can escape the vulgarity. Tang Haitai, who was once unbearable in the eyes of everyone, became a laughing stock of everyone. Because he was so generous, he raised his head when he walked, and his impression changed.

Some officials even discussed in private that Tang Haitai still enjoyed special treatment. If it were other officials who came and went freely every day, they would almost never pay the money and still have their salary. I am afraid they would have been scolded by the governor or even rebelled. But Tang Haitai had nothing to do, which shows that they still have a backer, and maybe there was an extraordinary relationship behind them.

Tang Haitai didn't know all the changes and discussions, but his luck did come. Recently, he met a noble man. This so-called noble man had a bad status. But he was particularly rich and very generous in his actions.

This person is a merchant in Ningyuan City, named Kangtai, who specializes in fur business.

It is very profitable to do fur business in Ningyuan City. The climate in Ningyuan is very cold in winter, and the winter is long, so the sales of fur and other things are very good. Not to mention anything else, officials who come to Liaodong all want to buy fur, at least a few pieces of fur clothes to keep warm in winter, and fur business is OK all year round. In summer, because fur is relatively cheaper, so there are many people who buy it, let alone winter.

But thinking about doing fur business is not that simple. Good fur almost requires hunters to provide. Everyone knows that there are not many hunters in the Ming Dynasty, and there are even fewer in Liaodong. On the contrary, there are many hunters in the Later Jin Dynasty. Most of the Later Jin Tartars were from hunters, and their hunting skills were also good. Therefore, the source of goods was mainly in the Later Jin and Mongolia. There is another point that you must learn the processing technology to do fur business, otherwise you will not be able to sell it with blood and a very fishy fur.

After leaving the restaurant, Kangtai took Tang Haitai to his store and took out the treasured wine and drank with Tang Haitai. Tang Haitai was grateful, so he didn't care about that much. As for Kangtai's identity, it was not an important matter. The key is that he helped him rescue the situation in the restaurant.

Tang Haitai and Kangtai are so familiar with each other.

Speaking of some situations in the capital and Nanjing, Kangtai is also very familiar with it. He tells it in a casual manner, especially when he mentions the Qinhuai River in Nanjing, saying that he can linger in those places and be free and worthy of life. This just goes to Tang Haitai's heart. Thinking of the romantic encounters in Nanjing, and the passionate and beautiful girls in the Qinhuai River, Tang Haitai's intestines are regretful. He is not able to grasp it well at the beginning, so what he does to the capital and Liaodong.

The two soon became friends.

From this day on, Kang Tai became Tang Haitai's best friend. Kang Tai was a little older than Tang Haitai. When it comes to birth dates and horoscopes, the two became sworn brothers of the opposite sex, and their relationship was very good.

Kangtai does have money. Tang Haitai goes to Kangtai’s shop every three days. Every time Kangtai takes Tang Haitai generously to the restaurant and brothel, and Kangtai is responsible for all the expenses.

After a period of dating, Kangtai told Tang Haitai that there were actually some places to make money in Ningyuan City, that are some underground casinos. In the Ming Dynasty, casinos could be operated publicly, but they had to pay certain taxes, and the tax amount was relatively high. Most of the bosses who could open casinos had some backgrounds and had a good relationship with the government. However, after Su Tiancheng came to Liaodong, he suppressed some larger casinos mercilessly. Gambling was harmful, especially when gambling was very large, and if it was not done well, it would be bankrupt. In this case, those large casinos slowly turned underground, either in teahouses, or in brothels, or even in restaurants.

When Chen Xinjia was the governor of Liaodong, he did not pay attention to the matters of the casino. During that period, the casinos in Ningyuan City were relatively prosperous. Later, Lu Xiang was promoted to Liaodong and rectified the casino again. Some large casinos were hidden in the ground again.

Tang Haitai rarely gambles, mainly because he is focused on eating, drinking and beating women, and he has no time to gamble. This time, Kang Tai introduced that gambling can make money, and Tang Haitai is also ready to go. Over the past few days, he has always spent Kang Tai's money. He is embarrassed. People's relationships are mutual, and they always spend Kang Tai. If you don't treat him, it's not reasonable, but if you want to treat him, you may spend it all at once.
