- The west gate of Kyoto was blocked again in the evening, and after waiting in the carriage for a long time, Bu Yu, who was anxious, finally became a little impatient, glanced sideways at Wang Zhe who was sitting next to him, and almost blurted out and asked, "I really don't know what your father is going to do so hard to make money?" ”

Fortunately, as soon as his words came to his mouth, he swallowed them again, otherwise I don't know how much trouble he would have caused.

However, their wait is almost over at this point. Because of the culprit of blocking the door, in the convoy that was neatly lined up more than ten zhang long, a young man with a long figure strode out, and the origin was obvious.

He was some distance away from Wang Zhe's carriage, so his figure was immersed in the dark sky in the evening, and his face could not be seen clearly, but it could probably be deduced that this person's relationship with this chamber of commerce convoy was not ordinary.

As the young man strode closer, his gaze shortened, and his appearance and clothing became clearer.

I saw that this person was inlaid with jasper, dressed in a simple shirt, wearing a crimson blue narrow-sleeved shirt, with a black belt around his waist, and did not wear any jewelry, but hung a brocade bag. The bag was half the size of a book, and it was stretched out in all directions by something inside. Such an outfit with such a bag does not seem to match well at a glance.

The young man approached the car and said, "I didn't expect Yan to meet Wang Gongzi here, it's really a blessing for three lives." ”

After seeing this person's face clearly, except for Yang Chen, the other two people in the car had already recognized the identity of this person at the same time, and immediately got out of the car together and waved their hands in salute.

Seeing this, although Yang Chen didn't know why, he also realized that the identity of the person walking in front of him was not light. He also jumped out of the car, but stood behind Wang Zhe.

Wang Zhe smiled and said after giving the salute: "Yan Dangjia is serious, I haven't seen him for a few years, Yan Dangjia is still outstanding, and the family business is getting bigger and bigger. Wang is standing still, incomparable, ashamed and ashamed. ”

"Where, where, Wang Gongzi has raised Yan." The young man laughed. Only then did he look at Bu Yu and said with a smile: "Bu Gongzi, we haven't had a drink at the same table for a long time, and it seems to be a good opportunity to meet today." ”

Bu Yu pretended to be displeased and snorted lightly first, and then said, "I thought you left me aside and forgot about my savings." ”

This young man surnamed Yan seems to be very familiar with Bu Yu's habit of speaking, not only did he not mind, but he also smiled heartily when his voice just fell, and said slowly: "How dare Yan be so snub to you." Bu Gongzi was laughing again. Well, it's my first time meeting my old friend just now, and I'm excited and negligent, so I'm going to invite you to drink, and you won't get drunk tonight! ”

Yang Chen, who was standing at the end of the crowd, saw that the three of them had a hot chat when they met for the first time. It's easy to see the relationship between these three people, and they should be old friends with each other.

When Wang Zhe acted as an intermediary again, introduced everyone to each other, and got acquainted with each other, Yang Chen became more and more surprised. It turned out that the young man with an unfamiliar face in front of him was the young owner of the Yan family, a well-known big family in the business world.

Yanzi trade name. If you trace the history of his family, he can't distinguish his roots, and he can only vaguely know that his family's generosity in the territory of Zhao is not the whole of the Yan family.

The reason why this can't be distinguished, in addition to the fact that the Yan family has also implemented confidentiality measures for this, after all, such a large chamber of commerce. How can you be detected everywhere? There is another reason, that is, when the Yan family really began to make a fortune, the former Zhou Continent was rising in war, and in the chaos, few people paid attention to it.

Today's Yan family has become the leader of the business world. The business line is wide and dense, crisscrossing the territory of the three countries, and the family business is so large that the current emperor of Zhao State is eye-catching and intends to woo him.

The Yan family caravan raised more than 1,000 horses in total, which was close to the maximum range that the Zhaoguo commercial law could allow. The longest one-way long-distance freight of the caravan is more than 1,000 miles, running through the entire mainland of Zhaoguo, and every time a caravan travels, the caravan leader can hold the complete customs clearance document of the three countries at the same time, so that it can be suspended at any time in case of trouble. In addition to the business that does not involve shipping, among the land merchants, the Yan family's industry is large and capable, and there is no one who can match it.

Because the business of the Yan family and the carriage shop have a close connection with different sects but the same origin, as a small member of the chariot industry, Yang Chen has usually heard some deeds of the Yan family, but he has not seen the senior managers of the Yan family business group, but he has seen a few coachmen who have retired from the Yan family caravan, and as peers, he has chatted with them a few times.

I didn't expect to meet the clansmen of the Yan family in today's environment, and the origin is not small, this young man is actually Yan Yu, the second son of the current head of the Yan family. Although Yan Yu is not the eldest son of the Yan family, if it is really time to inherit the family property and assist in the family business, even if he does not take over the whole thing, he must always be able to get the corner of the seven stars, then he is worth a lot.

As soon as he thought of this, Yang Chen couldn't help but look at the Yan Shao master in front of him again.

After a closer look, it was found that the crimson blue shirt he was wearing was actually a cloth embroidered with tuanjin. This embroidery technique pattern is uniform, and does not show the stitches, the main needle line Tian word hidden needle, two clear and eight hidden, very complicated.

In the most straightforward way, it means that the pattern produced by this embroidery will only appear when there is sunlight. And the brighter the sun, the more the brocade shows the brightness of the silk thread, which is a gorgeous, restrained and generous heavy fabric.

However, this kind of calm fabric is easy to wear out of the bloated effect, but Yan Yu's figure is strong and well-maintained, although he is a businessman, he does not see a big belly.

Knowing that Wang Zhe and the others were stranded behind the caravan and were making trouble, Yan Yu quickly found a man from his caravan who was responsible for helping Yang Chen guard the carriage, so that the three of them would not wait outside the city.

Yan Yu's meaning is relatively close to Yang Chen's idea, he plans to take a few friends into the city to drink and rest first, and when they are almost finished, his own convoy has already entered the city, and Yang Chen's carriage will be returned at the appointed place.

Because the caravan led by Yan Yu today has begun to enter the city for inspection, it may be a little troublesome to cut the queue at this time, and his idea is a compromise. However, it is easy to do things with people under your hands, and even if it is a compromise solution, it is very fast and worry-free.

The matter was temporarily settled, and Yan Yu took the three of them to the gate where the civilians entered the city.

After walking around, the things in the brocade bag hanging on Yan Yu's waist unconsciously revealed a corner, and Yang Chen was surprised when he saw it. It turned out that the brocade bag that looked redundant contained a delicate little abacus.

Yang Chen thought to himself: As a descendant of a big businessman, his style of doing things is really very individual. If the leader of the general is the armor that does not leave him, then as the leader of a caravan. Yan Yu also carries an abacus with her to help keep her mind clear at all times. Even if this intention is not the whole reason for doing everyone's business, it is also necessary!

When Wang Zhe introduced Yang Chen to Yan Yu, it was as if he was his own hired worker - although before he was employed by the Wang family, Yang Chen still had a few questions in his heart and did not say anything, and this matter was only a stroke of the line, and it was incomplete.

Yan Yu is now the head of the Dongzhou District of Yanjia Industry for the time being, and she is very stylish, well-organized, rough and subdivided. Seeing that Wang Zhe has been introduced here, he naturally will not do anything to dig the roots.

Actually, to put it simply. Because Yang Chen is only half a servant of the Wang family, and as the young head of the Yan family, there is no need to make friends with Yang Chen, so naturally he doesn't have to know this person so thoroughly. However, today I want to go to the city with Wang Zhe for a drink. It's okay for peers to bring Yang Chen.

Soon passed the inspection and entered the city, because Yan Yu had already arrived, and he was in charge of the Yan family's property in Dongzhou, so he must have been familiar with the guards at the city gate, so he went directly into the city after taking a look.

Walking on the straight road in the north inner city, Bu Yu remembered the expression of the city gate guards when they saw Yan Yu just now, and couldn't help but quip: "I thought that Yan Dangjia would take us that way!" ”

Wang Zhe, who was walking on Yan Yu's other hand, immediately said: "Make a big fuss!" ”

Yan Yu, who walked between the two, smiled. Said slowly: "I don't know where Gongzi Bu is leaving, it's Yan's negligence." However, to put it mildly, although that road was a reward from His Majesty the Emperor, Yan didn't really like to take that road, just because once after Yan entered the city from there, he actually found that someone was following. It's a little helpless! ”

As the shining star of the business world of Zhaoguo, the current emperor has a special reward for the Yan family, and in Kyoto, which is very strictly guarded, a door has been opened for the Yan family, and the Yan family's big boss and the three young masters can directly enter the inner city of Kyoto through Guò.

Since ancient times, names and fortunes have complemented each other and complemented each other. This reward, though of little value in practice, is a symbol of glory. Who wouldn't be happy to have money and face? Especially for a wealthy man like the Yan family, who makes money almost to the top, fame and glory will become something that makes the master's family happy and satisfied more than silver!

However, Yang Chen didn't know about this special matter, so he listened to the conversation between the people in front of him, and he heard it in a fog, but it was not good to ask what it was immediately.

Hearing that someone was following Yan Yu, Wang Zhe's eyes fluttered.

As a reward for the son of the emperor of the Yan family, Wang Zhe had to make some promises to Yan Yu in person anyway after Yan Yu mentioned this matter personally. But considering that there was still a Yang Chen by his side at this time, Wang Zhe was a little difficult, and it was difficult to find out his identity.

After thinking about it for a while, Wang Zhe had another idea in his heart, and said: "Although Master Bu doesn't care about this, he has a lot of contacts with Kyoto Prefecture in court affairs, so please ask Bu Yu to bring a letter to Master Bu about this matter." ”

Wang Zhe said and gave Bu Yu another look.

Although Bu Yu's father belongs to the ranks of Beijing officials, and he can find his location in the ranks of the Three Days and One Dynasty Meeting, what Yan Yu said today is obviously beyond the scope of Master Bu's affairs.

Although he is much older than the current Kyoto Prefecture governor, he is one level lower in terms of rank. It is barely feasible to ask him to bring words, but this is based on the premise that he has a relationship with Kyoto Prefecture, otherwise it will be a bit nosy and displeased.

Although this matter seemed a little reluctant, after Wang Zhe's eyes came, as a friend who had played with him since childhood, Bu Yu immediately came to his senses.

It is likely that it is barely counted, and in the end, Wang Zhe will personally go to his father who is the emperor. mentioned his father today, but Wang Zhe was unable to explain his identity, and he had to give Yan Yu an explanation, so he made this compromise trick.

"Near the Yuci Road crossing, there are actually people who peep and follow, it's really audacious!" Bu Yu opened his mouth first, expressing his anger after learning about this, and then he smiled at Yan Yu again, and said with a serious look: "Yan Dangjia, please rest assured, about this matter, Bu Mou will definitely bring the words." ”

In dealing with serious matters, Bu Yu is not ambiguous - as long as others do not stir up serious things into an improper atmosphere.

Yan Yu waved his hand when he heard this. said with a smile: "Then I really have to bother Bu Gongzi." ”

Seeing Wang Zhe's statement and watching the eye contact between him and Bu Yu, Yan Yu also realized that the coachman surnamed Yang who walked at the end of the group. Perhaps it is not yet included in the category of Wang Zhe's complete trust. At the same time, he also understood that it was the right choice for him to make reservations about Wang Zhe's identity at the beginning, and he knew more and more that today's conversation should leave more leeway.

As soon as this matter was over, Wang Zhe's heart was relieved, and he remembered another thing, and asked casually: "Actually, when I was thinking about how to enter the city faster, I also doubted whether such a huge convoy in front of me would be the Yan family." Will you run into acquaintances because of this? But I took a closer look, it didn't seem to be the Yan family, the flag and emblem of the team were very unfamiliar, but now it looks like you are in charge of the Yan family? ”

"Wang Gongzi guessed half right." Yan Yu smiled slightly, "But the half that didn't guess correctly is afraid that no one can guess." ”

After a slight pause. Yan Yu slowed down his words and said slowly: "This caravan was originally the industrial chain of my uncle's family, and it has not been long since it was built, so it may still seem a little strange in the eyes of Wang Gongzi. Now my uncle is getting older, and today's trip was originally supervised by my cousin, but ......"

Consider the next question to be said. When it comes to the former officials in the imperial court, and there is a rule in Zhaolu that is not drawn to the surface, that is, the absolute fault zone between official affairs and commercial affairs, Yan Yu can't help but hesitate in his heart.

In the end, he chose not to shy away from saying bluntly: "But...... Today, there was a murder in the city during the day, and the massacre was tragic, and Yan's cousin received a fast horse letter when he was halfway to the road. He was a little worried about whether there were still killers left in the city, so he sent a letter to call me, who had entered the city with the convoy before him and remained in Kyoto for the time being, to help. ”

Yan Yu couldn't help but sigh softly, but he didn't know what he was sighing for.

"I see." Wang Zhe only smiled faintly when he heard this. Nothing else.

Wang Zhe naturally knew about the fact that the former official Shangshu was killed by a group of assassins who suddenly broke out in the prison car on the way to the execution ground to be beheaded. It's just that although he is the prince, he only has the obligation to know, and he has never been involved in the affairs of the court and China-even if the emperor has taken the initiative to express this intention to him, asking him to assist in political affairs-at this time, he is a little amused when Yan Yu mentions this matter in person.

Seeing Wang Zhe groaning, Yan Yu was faintly still a little jealous of his identity, so he suddenly smiled, changed the topic and said half-jokingly: "Actually, to put it bluntly, I am giving my cousin a hand today, otherwise how can I hang up halfway before the caravan has completely entered the city?" ”

"Yan is being humble again, and I'm afraid that no one in the world can invite you to 'help'." Realizing that the atmosphere suddenly turned a little cold, Bu Yu opened his mouth to meet Yan Yu's words, and at the same time, he also glanced at Wang Zhe, who was slightly drooping.

"Bu Gongzi has won the award." Yan Yu hurriedly responded with a smile.

At this moment, Wang Zhe suddenly spoke, but what he said didn't seem to fit the atmosphere at this time, "Kyoto is guarded by martial gods, and ordinary bandits will never dare to trespass into the territory of Kyoto to make trouble, and the masters of the rivers and lakes ...... How many masters are willing to take the risk of committing murder in Kyoto? It's definitely hard to get out of the hands of the Martial God. ”

Speaking of this, he paused slightly, raised his eyebrows to look at Yan Yu, and said with a smile: "The people who assassinated the prisoners today are obviously outlaws, and they came with the heart of death. They quickly got what they wanted, and after the murder, they only escaped a street away, and were surrounded and suppressed by the city patrol team. This matter is just a small fish in the sea swinging their tails, and they can't make a big move, and the Yan family is trading here, so they don't have to care. ”

His tone seemed to be comforting, but it suddenly cooled the atmosphere of small talk between several people.

The biggest ups and downs in my heart are Yang Chen, who walked at the end of the group.

When there was a bloody case at the entrance of the vegetable market today, Yang Chen stayed at a section of the intersection not far away and waited for business. At that time, he had just woken up, and his eyes were not fully open, and his sleepiness did not pass until the commotion caused by the bloodshed had completely quieted down.

The order in Kyoto is very well controlled, and even if the former official was killed in the street in the prisoner car, except for the part of the people who 'saw is believing', the matter had little impact on other ordinary people. For example, Yang Chen, who was nearby at the time, only felt like he had missed a scene.

But Wang Zhe's analysis of this matter is so clear and meticulous, as if the person who handled this matter is himself, which makes others inevitably surprised. Yang Chen couldn't help but carefully look at Wang Zhe who was walking on Yan Yu's right hand, and he felt that the familiarity of this person seemed to disappear in an instant.

This person...... Who exactly is it?

Yang Chen retracted his gaze and lowered his eyes slightly, his eyes staring for a moment.

Hearing Wang Zhe's analysis, Yan Yu's eyes also froze for a moment, and then he nodded, smiled meaningfully, nodded and said: "Wang Gongzi's analysis is like iron, so that people only feel solid when they listen to it. My cousin hasn't been in business for a long time, and he's still a half-novice, so he's a little timid. But in the future, my cousin will inherit my uncle's inheritance, and if this temperament does not change, it will not work, and I will quote Wang Gongzi's words to listen to him again when I go back, so that he can gain more knowledge. ”

"How dare you." Wang Zhe said with a smile: "What Wang said is roughly relieved, and it has nothing to do with business. ”

Although his words were so, Yang Chen, who was at the end of the group, couldn't help but feel a wave in his heart when he heard this. If Wang Zhe's casual words can occupy a certain weight in Yan Shao's heart, even if Yan Yu may only be superficially raised, it can also reveal Wang Zhe's identity that should not be underestimated.

Who is he?
