Chapter 64: Hydrangea Scallops (1)
Hearing the sound of the second watch drum outside, Lin Yuxiao finally put down the file under his hand, folded the ones he had not seen and folded, and the table was clean and tidy by him, so he extinguished the candle and closed the door and came out.
It's already February, and it's getting warmer and warmer day by day after the beginning of spring, so Lin Yuxiao doesn't mind just walking on the street in the dead of night until dawn, anyway, the Chen family should go out of the stall after the end of the day, the Chen family's soybean milk fritters are the ones he has tasted, and they are the best in Mengzhou City.
When the time comes, Du Shaonan's restaurant will be officially opened, but there is no hurry, it is not too late for him to go back to his residence to change clothes and bring gifts to congratulate.
In this way, the time is very fast, and it is not difficult.
"Qincha from the capital?"
Lin Yuxiao left the mansion and walked around the street for no more than a meal, when a fog rose out of thin air two zhang away in front of him, and there was a faint figure in the fog who spoke hoarsely.
"I'm one of them." Lin Yuxiao was unfazed, and his tone was still as gentle as usual.
"If you want to know the truth about the strange case in Mengzhou, come with me." After saying this, the man in the fog turned around and ran in the direction of the outside of the city, he seemed sure that Lin Yuxiao would definitely catch up.
Lin Yuxiao did follow, the person in the fog appeared suddenly, and when he ran, the layer of fog actually shrouded the whole body at all, Lin Yuxiao's light skills have always been invincible, but he can only guarantee that he will not lose it when he uses all his strength.
Lin Yuxiao even felt that the other party had slowed down in order to keep him from losing it.
I don't know how many circles I went around when I went out of the city, and the outside of the city was gradually shrouded in fog, Lin Yuxiao stopped, isn't it? It is very rare for the suburbs of Mengzhou to be foggy, especially when the people in the fog appear, and there is also a fog outside the city, how to look at the two are also related.
The only thing Lin Yuxiao can be sure of is that there is no poison in the fog. As soon as he stopped, the people in the fog were left with only fog, and the people were gone. Lin Yuxiao was not in a hurry, stood in place and said loudly: "Your Excellency lured Lin out in a mysterious way, wouldn't it be just to let Lin accompany you to practice running?" ”
The surroundings were quiet, not to mention human voices, not even the sound of insects.
"Since Your Excellency doesn't want to speak, I have no choice but to leave." Lin Yuxiao bowed his hand politely to the void, and then turned around and left, he was not worried about losing any important clues, because no matter whether the other party was friend or foe, it would not just take him out for a circle and the game would be over.
But in which direction is the way home? The fog was so heavy that he couldn't see the stars in the sky at all, and there were no trees around, Lin Yuxiao thought about the route he had taken before, so he walked in one direction, and sure enough, after walking for a while, he saw a row of lights flickering in the air half a mile away, which should be the lights of the city tower.
Lin Yuxiao went to the place where there was a light, and after a while, there was no shadow, after he disappeared, the fog around him quickly dispersed, and a man in white showed his figure, and at the same time, he could barely see this place by a crescent moon in the sky, it was all black and pressed bushes and stones, and there was a little light within a mile?
"It's too good for a human being, and the sky won't tolerate it......" The man in white whispered to himself, his voice hoarse and proud.
……
At the end of the day, Du Shaonan's carefully prepared restaurant finally opened, first of all, a hundred firecrackers, and the people near the earthquake covered their ears to see the excitement.
"Young Master Du, congratulations, congratulations......" The green cloth sedan chair that the first guest to congratulate was sitting inconspicuous, and the gift box he was holding was also inconspicuous, because the most eye-catching thing was the official uniform on his body.
"Oh, the prefect is busy with official business and came here specially to come, how can you be embarrassed to ......" Du Shaonan smiled and muttered in his heart, he is in business and not promoted, do you need to wear an official uniform to congratulate? The costumes of the court officials were used in this place?
"It's a good day for Young Master Du to open up, how can this mansion not come and get some joy." As the magistrate of Mengzhou City, the cousin of the current queen mother wants to open a restaurant in the territory under his jurisdiction, can he not come to the door to express his expression? Originally, the prefect was still flustered for a while because he didn't receive Du Shaonan's invitation to open the business, what did he offend the son of the prince of the country? Or did the Du family hear something from the imperial court, such as the prefect was going to be replaced, so they didn't pay attention to him?
It wasn't until I inquired clearly later that Du Shaonan opened this time, and not a single invitation was sent out, and the biggest local official in Mengzhou breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that Young Master Du wants to try the consciousness of the officials and squires of Mengzhou City, right?
As soon as the prefect appeared in official uniforms, even people who didn't know Du Shaonan were highly interested in this newly opened restaurant, ordinary people were just talking about it, and there were rich shops that needed to be taken care of by the prefect's eyes.
It seems to be more lively than the day of the birthday banquet of the old lady of the National Mansion...... When Mr. Liu came, he saw the traffic outside the restaurant, and he couldn't help but think of it.
Mr. Liu had also inquired in advance, Du Shaonan did not publicize the restaurant before, nor did he send invitations to anyone, and he and Mr. Liu only spoke verbally, and seemed confident that the restaurant itself would win the guests.
"Uncle Liu!" As soon as he heard that Master Liu had arrived, Du Shaonan immediately stepped forward with a smile on his face, but because he had been laughing today, no one could see that he was special to Master Liu.
"Nephew, congratulations!" Master Liu is very close, but to others, he is just trying to curry favor with others.
"Uncle Liu, please upstairs." Because the prefect of Mengzhou attracted a bunch of local people with heads and faces, the small private room could not be arranged, so Du Shaonan simply invited all the people to the third floor, anyway, the third floor was originally planned by him as a high-end club for chartered parties.
As soon as Master Liu went up to the third floor, the originally lively people suddenly became quiet, and no one seemed to think that Master Liu would come today.
Du Shaonan, who went upstairs with Master Liu, couldn't help but look at the people around him, seeing that Master Liu was still smiling as usual, he felt a little admiration in his heart, and couldn't help but think that it would be good if he could let the Liu Yiyi who crossed over see this scene, so that she clearly realized how much trouble she had caused to the Liu family!
"Brother Liu, how long will I not see you?" The first person to greet was a middle-aged businessman surnamed Gao.
Boss Gao is a tea merchant, two years ago his son went to Beijing to sell tea, but heard that the merchant ship was shipwrecked, and then his family's tea garden accidentally went to the water, and burned all the account books and bills of business transactions.
The funds could not be recovered, and his son suffered misfortune again, and Boss Gao even lost the courage to survive at that time, thanks to Master Liu who came to comfort him, and settled the large amount of tea money from him in advance.
Boss Gao is most grateful not only for repaying debts, but also for Master Liu's words of persuasion to open him: "I think Ling Lang is a blessed person, and Mengzhou is long away from the capital, and the news will inevitably be distorted, Brother Gao should inquire carefully, otherwise one day Ling Lang will go home safely, Brother Gao will always leave him a complete home, right?" ”
Master Liu was really right, and only a few days later, Boss Gao actually received a handwritten letter from the only son who was said to have been killed, his son is indeed a blessed one, not only can he escape when he is in danger, but also saved a monk on the same boat, the monk will actually have a wonderful hand to fry tea, and take the son who lost the goods to stand out at the Beijing Tea Conference.
His son returned to his hometown with the imperial business qualification, and now he not only revived the family business but also let him hug his grandson, and now he recalls that two years ago, Boss Gao was afraid, if they couldn't think of it when the city was full of wind and rain, how could there be a good life today?
Boss Gao is grateful to Master Liu for sending charcoal in the snow, and he has to be benevolent and righteous in doing business, but now that Master Liu has difficulties, how can he sit idly by and be ungrateful?
"Brother Lao is worried, everything is fine." Master Liu didn't think that he would be rewarded for his kindness, but of course he was moved by people who were affectionate and righteous.
"I don't think it's okay, if Boss Liu doesn't think that his family is unfortunate, how can he lose a lot of weight?" Someone spoke in a weird way.
The shopping mall is like a battlefield, there are comrades-in-arms and enemies, first of all, the person surnamed Shi, a jewelry merchant in Mengzhou City, his youngest son just touched the face of a little girl selling flowers on the street, and it happened that Liu Yiyi saw it, and he couldn't help but say that he was beaten!
The Liu family also has a jewelry store, and Master Liu sold several pieces of fine jade as compensation at that time, so this matter is not over. Because the Liu family has a lot of money in Mengzhou City, and Master Liu has many friends, Boss Shi can only accept it first, thinking that this grievance will have to endure for a long time, but it has only been five years, and the opportunity for revenge has come!
Boss Shi had long been greedy for the jewelry and jade line operated by the Liu family, and he took advantage of the weakness of the Liu family to act, businessman, naturally whatever method is easy to use, it doesn't matter what tricks are dark tricks, but the strange thing is that his tricks were very effective against people before, but when he met Master Liu, it didn't work, and what was even more strange was that he couldn't describe how it didn't work.
Anyway, now Boss Shi's situation is not better than that of Master Liu, the reason why he can open a jewelry store is that he has a good eye for ancestral jade, and the day before yesterday, none of the rough stones they bought at a large price could produce good jade, and the Shi family's funds began to have difficulties.
Boss Shi is naturally in a bad mood, so he hopes to swallow the Liu family's jewelry business while no one has found out that he is in trouble, as long as the Liu family collapses, the circulation of jewelry and jade is the only one in the Shi family, and the Shi family can be saved.
"People are in good spirits on happy occasions, I think my uncle looks good......" Before Master Liu could open his mouth to Boss Shi, Du Shaonan spoke first.
"I don't know what kind of happy thing Master Liu has?" The prefect of Mengzhou, who was originally watching from the wall, saw that Du Shaonan was obviously facing Master Liu, so he asked with a smile.
"I proposed to Uncle Liu to marry the daughter of the Liu family, and Uncle Liu has allowed it!" Du Shaonan smiled happily.
"What!?"
"Did you hear that wrong!?"
"How is that possible!?"
Regardless of whether there was a conflict with the Liu family or not, there was an uproar, and even the dignified prefect stood up suddenly, so much so that he almost dropped his black gauze hat.
