Eighty-four will be counted

Dongfang Chao is a well-known figure in Jiujiang Mansion, his reputation is not a second person, he has always been a big person, and he never does something uncertain, if he breaks in with a group of people like this, once he can't find a position, won't it make everyone embarrassed and unable to get off the stage? That's why he said so. Pen~Fun~Pavilion www.biquge.info{}

Hearing this, Du Qi pondered, "Why don't we all go to the tea shop in front of us to rest." ”

Lu Miaoer smiled: "Are you worried that there is no place to go in?" You must know that a place like Taibai Lou may have unexpected guests at any time, so as not to accidentally offend those who they cannot afford to offend, therefore, no matter how crowded it is, Taibai Lou has reserved a few private rooms, and I should be able to get one. ”

Dongfang Chao saw Lu Miao'er looking at him, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "If you pull down your face, I can also get a room and a half, but in this way, everyone will not get along well in the future, thinking about it, there is really no need for this, so let's go and drink tea to be more comfortable." ”

While talking, they had come to the front of the Taibai Building, and a large group of people stopped there and pointed and looked around, which was quite eye-catching. Du Qi said: "In this case, you should go back first, and by the way, check who the young female passengers are on board tomorrow morning, and then see if there are any temporary boatmen, sailors and other characters on board!" ”

Although Dongfang Chao didn't know what Du Qi wanted to do in these situations, he was still ready to try his best to find out what Du Qi wanted to know, and in a flash of thought, he asked Du Qi for some details, and when he was about to lead the crowd away, a person suddenly ran out of the Taibai Building, waved his hand from a distance and shouted: "Dongfang, Dongfang, I was about to invite you, but I saw you here, it's so good!" ”

Everyone followed the sound and looked, only to see a fat man about forty years old, dressed in a gorgeous robe was shouting while trotting over with light and joyful steps. ”

It turned out that this person was Zhao Dongshan, the shopkeeper of Taibai Building, although Dongfang Chao knew him, but Xiang had no contacts, even if he had some business dealings, they didn't have to come forward in person, so it was not good for Dongfang to arrange a seat for him just now.

When Zhao Dongshan came closer, he saw a group of Luoma Gang people surrounding the two Taoist priests, as if he knew what he meant, and said with a smile: "Is Dongfang ready to eat?" It just so happens that I have prepared a little bit of discretion, so please don't shirk the East and you. ”

Dongfang said: "We are just welcoming the Guike Road that is about to travel far away tomorrow, and we dare not delay, so the kindness of the shopkeeper Zhao can only be understood, and Dongfang will make a special trip to thank you another day!" ”

Zhao Dongshan didn't expect Dongfang to stir up chaos and not give him face at all, and he rejected his kind invitation, he was also a heavyweight with a head and face in Jiujiang Mansion, and he was suddenly rejected, and he couldn't let go of his face for a while, and he looked a little embarrassed, but he still smiled indifferently: "I can't hide it, I am also entrusted by someone to invite Dongfang this time, so I invite Dongfang to patronize him no matter what." ”

Dongfang Chao saw that Zhao Dongshan seemed to want to forcibly invite a treat, and couldn't help but be secretly annoyed, and was about to have a seizure, when he suddenly changed his mind and said, "Who has such a big face and actually asked Zhao's shopkeeper to run errands for him?" ”

Zhao Dongshan said cautiously: "Dongfang is really like a mirror, if you want to know the truth, why not go with me?" ”

Dongfang shook the confusion and said with a difficult face: "But"

Zhao Dongshan said: "If Dongfang feels embarrassed, how about inviting the honorable guest and your subordinates to go together?" ”

Dongfang said in confusion: "In this way, let's ask these four distinguished guests to go with me to disturb the shopkeeper Zhao, and Elder Jin will lead the others to go back first, and ask He Biyan to investigate what the prince wants to know." ”

The distinguished guests mentioned by Dongfang Chao naturally refer to Du Qi, Li Shizhen, Lu Miaoer and Pang Xian, and he obviously didn't want Zhao Dongshan to know Du Qi's true identity. Zhao Dongshan only noticed the existence of Du Qi and Lu Miaoer at this time, he suddenly saw Lu Miaoer, his face couldn't help but change slightly, and he hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "It turns out that Lu Daxia is also here, Zhao has not met in time, and please Lu Daxia Haihan!" I don't know what Lu Daxia is doing here? ”

Lu Miaoer said with a smile: "I accompanied my son to visit here, and I was preparing to eat, and it happened that Zhao's shopkeeper had a treat, what else could I do?" ”

Zhao Dongshan couldn't help but be overjoyed, hurriedly turned sideways and stepped aside, and said happily: "Everyone, please!" ”

Du Qi and Lu Miaoer still protected Li Shizhen in the middle, and Pang Xian and Dongfang Chao followed behind the three of them. Seeing them start, Zhao Dongshan also moved forward, but he still walked sideways on the side of the road, and kept bringing the five of them forward.

Ascending to the third floor and coming to the front of the "Yiran Hall", Zhao Dongshan, who was leading the way in the front, carefully pushed open the door of the hall, revealing a beautiful face like a hibiscus in the door, and a gorgeous maid dressed in white stood beside the door, seeing everyone hurriedly bowing and whispering: "Everyone, please come in!" Hearing the words of the maid in the door, Zhao Dongshan stepped into the door, stood opposite the maid, and gestured to invite Du Qi and the others in.

As soon as the door opened, Du Qi felt that the hall was very spacious, with two large windows on the walls, which made the hall look extraordinarily bright, and in the center of the hall was a large round table, around which sixteen high-backed chairs were placed, and nine beautiful maids dressed in white were regularly scattered between the door and the large table, and everyone stood upright, not daring to blink their eyes more.

As soon as Dudge and the other five stepped into the hall door, five maids came up to them, led them to the table, pulled out the chairs at the table and invited them to sit down, handed them tea, and then retreated behind them.

This time, the host and guest invited by Zhao Dongshan were originally Dongfang Chaos, but now he has become an accompanying guest, the main seat is naturally Li Shizhen and Du Qi, Pang Xian and Lu Miaoer are on both sides of them, Dongfang Chao had to sit next to Lu Miaoer, but Zhao Dongshan sat next to Pang Xian, and ordered the maid to remove the extra chairs, leaving only three positions.

Zhao Dongshan first took a sip of fragrant tea and said with a smile: "This is a private room with the most elegant setting, the largest area and the best location in our building. The woolen carpet on the floor is extremely expensive, and with the tables and chairs made of fine mahogany and all kinds of gold, silver and jade tableware, it looks luxurious and rich; The fragrance of several pots of blooming orchids on the front wall of the window is contrasted with the precious calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall, making people feel quiet and elegant; When you open the window, you can overlook the river and enjoy the majestic momentum, and the dining time is surrounded by several beautiful waiters, highlighting another kind of enjoyment. Here, it can be said that it is elegant and vulgar appreciation, so, this hall is rarely booked out, but today it is just used to entertain the East and distinguished guests, I thought that at least a time after the morning to invite the East, I did not expect to meet the East just after going out, but arrived before the host, I have to ask you to sit for a while! ”

Dongfang said in confusion: "May I ask Shopkeeper Zhao, who invited you to call us here for a banquet?" ”

Zhao Dongshan said: "Has the East ever heard of the 'Dragon and Tiger Society'? ”

Dongfang said chaotically: "It is rumored that the Dragon and Tiger Club is the most mysterious gang in our Jiujiang Mansion, no one knows who their family members are, no one knows what they are doing, and no one knows how many of them there are and what their strength is, but from the occasional members of the Dragon and Tiger Club in recent years, it is not difficult to see that the Dragon and Tiger Club is a large, well-organized, and powerful gang, could it be that the people who are the East this time are actually related to the Dragon and Tiger Club?" ”

Zhao Dongshan said: "Although it is not the person of the Dragon and Tiger Club who is the east, but the person who is the owner is a friend of Liao Gongzi, and Liao Gongzi is the person who holds real power in the Dragon and Tiger Club." ”

Suddenly hearing the three words Liao Gongzi, Du Qi and Lu Miaoer both felt a little familiar, and couldn't help but glance at each other, suddenly remembering the incident of the barren mountain and abandoned temple last night, and finally arrived Isn't the person named Liao Gongzi? Could it be that this Liao Gongzi is the Liao Gongzi they met and followed last night? If that's true, it's a coincidence. Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard Dongfang stir up the confusion and said: "Shopkeeper Zhao seems to be more clear about the situation of the Dragon and Tiger Society!?" ”

Zhao Dongshan smiled bitterly: "What do you know?" I don't know much more about Dongfang, this morning when Gongzi Liao accompanied the other two people to make a reservation, and invited Dongfang to come to the banquet, Gongzi Liao claimed to be a person in the Dragon and Tiger Club, and I also listened to his tone, and secretly guessed that his identity was not low. ”

Lu Miao'er said: "A character in a small gang who has never appeared can make you Zhao Da shopkeeper bow his head and be willing to let them drive?" ”

Zhao Dongshan said: "Lu Daxia doesn't know, he came with the prefect's master, saying that another young son surnamed Yang is from the capital, and he has a lot of background, and it is not something that we people in Jiujiang Mansion can afford, so I must personally accompany them to meet their requirements, so I have to invite the East to the banquet." ”

Lu Miao'er suddenly stared at Zhao Dongshan with a bright look and said, "Shopkeeper Zhao really has nothing to do with that Liao Gongzi?" ”

Zhao Dongshan said: "Before this morning, I didn't know that there was still a person like Liao Gongzi, so how could I have anything to do with him?" In fact, I have been thinking that when they invite the East to the banquet, they must have asked for something from the East, and in this way alone, what they ask for is either difficult to do or cannot be seen, so whether you can negotiate it or not, I am very difficult to be caught in the middle, alas! ”

Seeing that Zhao Dongshan did look a little depressed, and his feelings were not fake, Dongfang was about to open his mouth to persuade him, when he suddenly heard a series of voices outside the room shouting: "Young Master Yang has arrived!" ”

Hearing this, Zhao Dongshan hurriedly got up and walked towards the hall door, and the three maids followed closely behind him. As soon as they arrived at the door, the hall door had been pushed open, and the beautiful waiter who had been standing there bowed down and said, "Everyone, please come in!" ”

With her words, a group of mermaids rushed in, and at the front was a young man dressed in expensive clothes, about twenty-three or four, the hot Tianshang covered a yellow short coat over his long coat, which looked nondescript, but fortunately his appearance was quite thoughtful, tall and sturdy, and he exuded a breathtaking momentum when he walked, which made people feel that he didn't look so awkward, but his eyes were yellow at a young age, and his eyes were slightly sunken, showing that he was overindulged, plus his eyes flickered, and the aura of the yin owl was revealed, Apparently a ruthless character.

He was followed by a young man of about twenty-two or three, who, though of good countenance, made one think at first glance that he was a cunning man; the third was an obscene man of about thirty-five or sixteen years of age; Then followed by ten men between twenty and thirty-five or sixteen, all of them were extraordinary, their eyes opened and closed, and they all had good martial arts, as if they were their bodyguards.

Seeing them come in, Du Qi and the others politely stood up to greet each other, and Zhao Dongshan only introduced at this time: "This is Yang Gongzi from the capital, this is Liao Gongzi of the Dragon and Tiger Society, and this is the shopkeeper of Yang of the big silk merchant." ”

Du Qi and the others had no choice but to report their names, and in the greetings, Yang Gongzi, Liao Gongzi and Yang Shopkeeper sat in the main seat in turn under the guidance of the three maids, but the ten martial arts masters stood proudly behind Yang Gongzi and refused to leave a step. The maids hurriedly handed hot and humid towels to everyone to clean their faces, and then put gold bowls, silver chopsticks, and Baoyu cups and plates for everyone, and then filled the wine glasses with "Taibai Drink".

As soon as the Liao Gongzi spoke, Du Qi and Lu Miao'er concluded that he was indeed the Liao Gongzi who appeared in the ruined temple last night, and their purpose of inviting the East to stir up chaos today was also called out.

After the greetings were over, Yang Gongzi said: "Shopkeeper Zhao, tell them to serve!" ”

Zhao Dongshan hurriedly said: "Yes! Then he shouted, "Serve!" ”

Dongfang stirred up the chaos but said: "Thanks to the kind invitation, what does Yang Gongzi command?" ”

Yang Gongzi said with a smile: "I took the liberty to invite the Oriental Helmsman today, because I have always admired the ability and personality of the Oriental Helmsman, and I sincerely want to make friends with the Oriental Helmsman." ”

Dongfang said in confusion: "Dongfang is just a mountain and wild martial artist, how dare he be so loving as a son." ”

Yang Gongzi said: "Who in the rivers and lakes doesn't know that the 'Golden Hook and Silver Stroke' Dongfang is a civil and military all-rounder, and it is indeed overkill to serve as the helmsman in Jiujiang, I am deeply sorry that Dongfang brother is not worth it, or one day I will take the time to tell you the helper and transfer you back to the helm?" ”

Dongfang was stunned: "Yang Gongzi has such ability? ”

Yang Gongzi said with a smile: "This is a trivial matter, although the younger brother is not a member of your gang, but the younger brother in your gang can still speak without being strong." ”

Dongfang said in disbelief: "Oh? ”

Yang Gongzi still smiled and said: "Brother Dongfang may not believe it, I know almost all the elders of your gang, and the gang leader and several deputy gang leaders are friends with my family, and the relationship is too good to say, so the little brother of your gang can speak, like the helmsman directors everywhere can only make a decision with a word." ”

Dongfang said in confusion: "What does Yang Gongzi want me to do?" ”

Yang Gongzi said with a smile: "Brother Dongfang is a smart person, and the younger brother likes to deal with smart people the most." Because the younger brother's father was suddenly seriously ill, he was anxious to rush back to the capital, and learned that your gang would send a ship to the capital tomorrow, but the younger brother was anxious and did not have time to make a reservation, so he had to take the liberty of asking the Dongfang brother to arrange for the younger brother and the escort a total of 11 people to board the ship. ”

Dongfang was embarrassed and said: "But this matter is indeed quite difficult!" ”

Yang Gongzi said: "That's why the little brother came to trouble Brother Dongfang to find a way, please rest assured Brother Dongfang, this love brother must be kept in mind, and he will do his best to handle Brother Dongfang's affairs after returning to Beijing." ”

Dongfang said in confusion: "There are two ships sent to the capital tomorrow, I don't know which ship Yang Gongzi is going to take?" ”

Yang Gongzi pretended to mutter: "Of course, the faster the better, but this has to be done cheaply by Brother Dongfang." ”

Du Qi suddenly interjected: "I just booked two more cabins in Xia, I wonder if Yang Gongzi is interested?" "Beechcraft Tip: How to quickly search for the books you're looking for
