Chapter 40: The Fall of the Imperial Family

Rows of adobe houses between the villages, narrow and winding paths criss-cross, each family has a barren square land in front of the door, there are fences built of wooden sticks around it, walking along the road, although Lu Ming feels that the residents here are not wealthy, but in the emotional environment, there is a rare sense of harmony in the city, although it is winter at this time, but in each alley, there will be a few elderly people choose to sit together in a place with plenty of sunlight, because of the cold weather, they handle their hands, are poor to the cotton sleeves, Small talk is accompanied by a few hearty laughs.

However, as the time spent walking around the village increased, Lu Ming noticed a strange phenomenon

"Uncle Yang, why are there all old people here? I walked around the village for a long time, but I didn't see a single young man."

Hearing this, Old Man Yang slowed down and glanced at Lu Ming with a smile

"You kid still has some observation, this place is actually not far from the imperial capital, the young people here are in contact with the wonderful world outside when they go to school, once they have a way to live outside, they will naturally not come back to suffer from this sense of loneliness, not to mention that the people here are not poor, but they like this way of life"

As he spoke, Old Man Yang took Lu Ming into an alley, and when he reached the end, he suddenly found that not far in front of him stood a small two-story building with tiles on the outside, and this building, among the villages where the adobe houses were located, was particularly conspicuous.

Before he could ask, Old Man Yang's feet had already quickened his pace, his speed, but it made Lu Ming a little difficult, walking on this hard dirt road, this young man who was used to walking flat asphalt roads in the city was really not very accustomed, and every few steps, he would find that there was a thin ice surface at the door of the bungalow, which looked like it should be the sewage that the residents themselves poured outside the door, and because of this, Lu Ming had to pay attention to the road conditions under his feet.

When walking to the door of the small building, Old Man Yang took out his mobile phone and dialed a series of numbers, after a short wait, although no one answered the mobile phone, the vermilion lacquer door in front of them was suddenly opened.

The image of the person who opened the door really surprised Lu Ming.

His hairstyle is the style left by the Qing Dynasty in the ancient costume TV series, his cheeks are thin but the bridge of his nose is straight, a pair of eyebrows are like two black dragons that have forgotten each other, and the leopard's eyes are shining, which can show nobility against the backdrop of a yellow horse coat.

After seeing Lu Ming beside Old Man Yang, the person who opened the door looked slightly stunned, but instantly recovered, "Old Yang, I haven't seen you for a long time, dare to ask who this is?" ”

"This is my apprentice," he then glanced at Lu Ming and said in a serious tone

"It's called Master Pu!"

Lu Ming hurriedly added a sentence according to Old Man Yang's instructions.

"Even if it's a disciple of Old Yang, it's okay, please come in" Although this person is modest in his words, he can't show the slightest bit above his figure, which always makes Lu Ming feel that he has a kind of uncle's style.

After following this Pu Ye into the door, he found that between the building and the door, there was a barren vacant lot, between the building gate and the courtyard gate, was connected by a cobblestone paved path, but from the smooth surface of the cobblestone, it seemed that this road had been walked many times.

After entering the living room of the small building, an old-style long case is very conspicuous, and the two sides of the case are also divided into rice paper, pen holders, and inkstones, and the walls around the room are full of calligraphy and paintings.

"Sit down," when Pu Ye said this, he turned his head and glanced at the two wooden chairs by the window.

Although Lu Ming didn't understand what it meant, he watched Old Man Yang walk over and sit on one of the chairs, and he probably knew what it was, and this Pu Ye waited for them to sit down before he sat down on a red chair opposite them.

After a short silence, Old Man Yang opened his mouth to break the situation, "Master Pu, what did you think about the matter I discussed with you last time?" ”

After hearing this, Pu Ye's brows furrowed, "Why do you still mention that incident?" I had already refused at that time, and to this day, I don't blame my ancestors and ancestors, I only blame myself for my bad fate, but even if I don't live well, how can I sell my ancestors' family business to live? Do you want to be like those people? As he spoke, he pointed out with his hand.

After hearing this, Old Man Yang smiled disdainfully, "Haha, Master Pu, you are backward in your thinking, when is it now?" has been reformed and opened up, your royal identity has long been in the past, and now, you really can't eat without money, besides, since you were born, have you enjoyed the blessings of half a day? That is, with the good policies of the state, you are not living on the streets."

"Whether or not you live on the streets, that's a certainty, and no one can change the mandate of heaven," he said, Pu Ye turned his head sideways and stopped looking at him.

Seeing this, Old Man Yang became humble again, and then persuaded, "In the past, there were three teachings and nine streams, and the drama was the last first-class, what do you think?" ”

"Don't mention these, each has its own fate, I can't control it" said, Pu Ye's face was already a little blue.

Although they have been talking about the clouds, mountains and fogs, Lu Ming is not a fool after all, he seems to understand a little, and he also knows that this person's identity is not ordinary.

"Yes, each is safe and destiny, isn't it all money, besides, the chair under your ass can be sold for 500,000 yuan, why don't you understand, I think through the relationship recently, there are also many people who have visited you, and the price they offered, you also have a number in your heart, compared with me, what do you think?"

After hearing this, Pu Ye just snorted and did not reply.

Old man Yang had a bitter attitude, "Besides, don't you need money recently, for your great idea, just by saying, but you can't do it, as for your plan to rely on fundraising, I tell you, now, no one will do this, and you will also go to prison for doing this, in my opinion, don't be stubborn, the dragon vein, it's long gone, don't think about it, eat well, live well, it's not better than what?" ”

Seeing that Master Pu stopped talking, Old Man Yang stood up, "Come on, Master Pu, you think slowly, we still have something to do, I'll come back in two days."

"Don't send it!" After saying this, Pu Ye got up, walked directly to the long case, and began to study the ink.

After going out, Lu Ming looked at Old Man Yang and asked with a smile, "Uncle Yang, we really have nothing to do, right?" Come all the way to see people's faces? ”

"Haha, silly boy, this is a face, it's money, by the way, have you recently exchanged for good things?"

Lu Ming shook his head depressedly, "There have been too many trivial things recently, and I will go back when I have time, don't worry, once I find something good, I will notify you as soon as possible."
