Chapter 285: Trust

Xing Feng specially arranged a place for Lu Xiaoxian to live in the third courtyard, and after everything was cleaned up, Lu Xiaoxian called Zhang Meng and Xing Feng over.

Lu Xiaoxian asked bluntly: "Xingfeng, tell me, what is the situation in Yingzhou now?" ”

In the past few days since he came to Yingzhou, Xing Feng has not been idle, he and the people he brought with him have been looking around for news, and the situation is more detailed.

After listening to Xingfeng's introduction, Lu Xiaoxian also had a general understanding of the current situation in Yingzhou.

"By the way, how did you buy this house?" Lu Xiaoxian asked curiously.

Xing Feng was a little nervous and said: "Coincidentally, when we first arrived in Yingzhou, we originally lived in an inn, and it happened that I heard that the owner of this house was going to sell the house, and I saw that the price was also appropriate, considering that the owner would be convenient in the future, so I bought it myself." ”

Although Lu Xiaoxian authorized Xing Feng before coming to Yingzhou City, and after arriving in Yingzhou, he asked him to decide everything on his own according to the actual situation, but for such a big matter as buying a house, he didn't ask Lu Xiaoxian to make the decision himself, and he didn't know if Lu Xiaoxian would be angry, Xing Feng was still a little nervous in his heart.

"You've done a great job this year!"

After listening to Lu Xiaoxian's affirmation, Xing Feng sighed.

Lu Xiaoxian asked again: "The silver I gave you must not be enough, right?" ”

"It cost 1,500 taels to buy the mansion, and there is still money left over from the money you gave me!"

"Fifteen hundred taels? So cheap? Lu Xiaoxian was taken aback.

The mansion that Xing Feng bought, if it was placed in Luoyang City, where every inch of land was valuable, even if it was fifteen thousand taels of silver, it might not be able to buy it. Yingzhou is located in the middle of nowhere, not as good as Luoyang, but such a house costs at least three or five thousand taels of silver, Lu Xiaoxian doesn't know why Xing Feng bought it so cheaply.

Xing Feng explained: "There has been a great drought in Yingzhou in the past two years, and the price of food in the city is extremely high, but this house is not worth much. The owner of this mansion is named Wu Liu, and the mansion is handed down from his ancestors. Wu Liu was in a hurry to sell it cheaply because of his gambling debts, so he let me pick up a bargain. ”

Hearing this, Lu Xiaoxian couldn't help but think of what the ghost of lack of virtue once said to himself, he sighed and said: "How can a good gambler in this world end well?" ”

Xing Feng said: "However, this Wu Liu has a skill that ordinary people don't have, so let's let it."

People admire it very much! ”

"Oh?" Lu Xiaoxian asked curiously, "Tell me, what kind of ability?" ”

"He has a natural tongue, and it is said that eating beef can eat the age of the cow, and eating dog meat can eat the weight of the dog. Because of this, he has been very delicious since he was a child, and he eats very carefully and to the extreme. ”

And this kind of thing, it's really the world's biggest.

Lu Xiaoxian was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and said with a curious expression: "Such a strange person, I would like to see it!" Where does he live now? ”

Xing Feng replied: "He originally opened the largest restaurant in Yingzhou City, if it weren't for the gambling debts set up by someone, his life would be really good." Now it's good, not only did the restaurant give to others, but the property handed down by the ancestors was also sold, and there was no place to live. I don't know where he lives now, if the owner wants to see him, I'll inquire, and I'll get back as soon as I have the news! ”

Zhang Meng felt strange on the side: "Xiaoxian, why do you have to see this Wu Liu?" ”

Lu Xiaoxian showed a strange smile on his face: "Wu Liu is born to eat, Chen San has always liked chefs, if the two of them are paired together, what will it be like?" Isn't it exciting? ”

Listening to Lu Xiaoxian's words, Zhang Meng was speechless.

Such a whimsical idea can only be imagined by Lu Xiaoxian.

"That's right!" Lu Xiaoxian changed the topic and asked, "I heard that Haidongqing is abundant in Yingzhou, but is there such a thing?" ”

The Khitan, Xi and Yan ethnic minorities all have hunting customs, so they are all good at falconry, and a well-tamed eagle is a sharp weapon for hunting.

There are 60 out of 300 feather insects, and Shenjun is the most Haidongqing.

Haidongqing is a rare white-tailed eagle that inhabits in the area of Yingzhou, although it is as big as a magpie, but it is fierce by nature, it feeds on swans and geese, because it is not easy to catch, it is difficult to domesticate, it is known as the god among the falcon, and the locals call it "the eagle".

Ever since he had seen the Flying Eagle Transmission in Tibet, Lu Xiaoxian realized that this was a very safe and fast way of communication, at least in this era it was very advanced, so Lu Xiaoxian had the idea of mastering and establishing this method of communication. But in order to implement this plan, it is necessary to domesticate a large number of qualified eagles, so he has this question.

Xingfeng

I didn't understand what Lu Xiaoxian meant, he sneered: "Master, I don't know much about this!" ”

Xing Feng has not been in Yingzhou for a long time, and Lu Xiaoxian did not specifically give him this task, so it is understandable that he does not know.

Lu Xiaoxian patted Xing Feng on the shoulder: "It's okay, the next step is to arrange more people to inquire about Hai Dongqing's situation, the more detailed the better, this matter is very important, you know?" ”

"Got it!" Xing Feng nodded, "Master, don't worry, I will inquire as soon as possible!" ”

Lu Xiaoxian took out a stack of silver tickets from his arms and handed them to Xing Feng: "This is 10,000 taels of silver, you take it first." I still say the same thing, spend it when you should spend it, don't be reluctant, as long as you can get things done! ”

When going from Luoyang to Taozhou, the Zhang brothers let Lu Xiaoxian bring little money.

This time, Zhang Meng rushed from Luoyang to meet, and the Zhang brothers asked him to bring Lu Xiaoxian a silver ticket worth tens of thousands of taels of silver. Therefore, Lu Xiaoxian is not short of money.

"Ten thousand taels?" Xing Feng's eyes couldn't help but widen, and he said in fear: "Master, the silver you gave last time hasn't been used up yet, don't use so much, I'm afraid ......"

Xing Feng licked his lips and swallowed saliva, speaking a little incoherently.

No wonder he has this kind of expression, not only Xing Feng, but for most ordinary people, I am afraid that he has never seen so much silver in his life. But Lu Xiaoxian gave him so much silver without hesitation, how could he be embarrassed?

"Take it!" Lu Xiaoxian said lightly, "So many people need to spend money on food, clothing, housing and transportation, and there are many things that need to be done in the next step." I know what you're thinking, don't have any worries, do it well, I'm optimistic about you! ”

Hearing Lu Xiaoxian's words, Xing Feng's eyes moistened.

No one had ever treated him so well since he became a slave, let alone trusted him so much.

Xing Feng came from a scholarly family since he was a child, and knew the truth that a scholar dies for a confidant, so he knelt down in front of Lu Xiaoxian and said solemnly: "Master, in the future, my life of Xingfeng is yours, as long as you give an order, I will go to the soup and go to the fire!" ”

"Get up!" Lu Xiaoxian nodded at Xingfeng, "For the sake of convenience, you are still the owner of this mansion to the outside world, so don't mention me and the second master!" ”

"Yes, master!"
