Chapter 182: Hands and Eyes to the Sky
Xia Gongzi looked at the young man on the other side of the corridor and said without showing weakness: "In this capital, unless the emperor is the emperor, no one dares to say that it can scare me!" ”
Several servants introduced almost flatteringly: "This is the eldest son of Fan Sui, the top name of our Western Frontier. ”
Xia Gongzi and others listened to the face sinking like water, Fan Sui in Western Xinjiang, isn't it the largest tea merchant in Lanzhou, Fan Sui, he is a giant businessman in the Han Dynasty, the annual tea tax accounts for almost three or four percent of the Han Dynasty, and he will donate a huge amount of silver to the court every year, as well as tea, the emperor is also very kind to their family, every year in the festival will send someone to their family to send rewards, although their Fan family no one is an official in the court, but it can also be said that the hands and eyes are open to the sky. Xia Gongzi ran out of ideas for a while, so the person in front of him was Fan Enyu, the eldest son of Fan Sui.
Li Gongzi beside Xia Gongzi covered his face, unwilling in his heart, although he had heard of this person, but after all, they were businessmen, and they were the last people, and they were beaten for no reason today, how could they swallow this breath, so they had the heart to pry Xia Gongzi and Fan Enyu to do it, so they laughed: "Isn't it just a tea merchant!" The one next to me is the eldest son who is the head of the household department, where can Fan Sui compare! ”
Fan Enyu laughed, "It turned out to be the son of Xia Jingying, the head of the household, so you are Xia Tongluo!" ”
Li Gongzi didn't wait for Xia Tong to answer, so he hurriedly replied: "What kind of power are you, dare to call our Lord Shangshu by his name, be careful of your skin!" ”
Wu Gongzi had no confidence at this time, and looked at Xia Tong's face and acted at the opportunity. Xia Tong was also a little upset when he was attacked by Li Gongzi, and pointed at Fan Enyu and scolded: "Straight lady thief, it seems that you don't want to live anymore, if you don't apologize to Li Gongzi today, you don't want to walk out of the door of Furong Restaurant!" ”
The smell of the two sides is getting stronger and stronger, and Wu Gongzi feels that this situation seems to be about to fight again, and he doesn't know what to think, so he secretly withdraws and wants to go to the owner of the Furong wine shop and ask the boss to help calm down.
After the two sides confronted each other for a while, Fan Enyu also began to lose his temper, pointing at Xia Tong and covering his face with a scolding scolding. Where could Xia Tong endure Fan Enyu's foul language, raised his hand, and shouted: "Give me all ......"
"Slow down ......" at the last moment, two figures flashed behind Xia Tong, one in front and one behind, walking behind is Wu Gongzi, walking in front is a middle-aged woman, although she is in her forties, but she is still charming, her appearance and figure are extremely beautiful, the corners of her mouth smiled when she spoke, and she walked to the middle of Xia Tong and Fan Enyu, and said a blessing to the two, Xia Tong and Fan Enyu also returned the gift with great politeness.
Xia Daodao: "Such a trivial matter disturbed Boss Liu, I'm really sorry!" ”
Boss Liu nodded to Xia Tong, "Let Xia Gongzi smile, the concubine was originally listening to music in the back hall, and when she heard such a big movement outside, she thought that the people in our wine shop were not considerate." After that, he turned around and nodded to Fan Enyu, "Fan Gongzi from the Western Xinjiang rarely comes to the capital, so he comes to our wine shop to cheer, which really makes the humble house shine!" Boss Liu saw that the servants on both sides were all gearing up, so he asked, "What is this doing?" He smiled, "Could it be that the two sons saw the new repair on the third floor and wanted their subordinates to go up and help?" ”
Fan Enyu and Xia Tong also laughed: "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding!" ”
"The concubine is not confused, today's matter, if you are willing to look at my thin face, it can be regarded as a good thing for the concubine, as the so-called don't fight and don't know each other, I will come forward today and introduce you to each other?" Boss Liu said calmly.
Xia Tong knew that although Boss Liu was a woman, he was well-known in Beijing, and he was able to open such a big restaurant here, aren't there all people in the court! Now that she has the heart to mediate, there is nothing unsightly to go down the steps, so she nodded and said, "Boss Liu's face, of course Xia is happy." ”
Fan Enyu also smiled and said: "Boss Liu is polite, since you have said so, then let's stop today's matter!" ”
Li Gongzi was resentful in his heart, but he didn't expect that he still didn't get any benefits, and let Fan Enyu be a good person, and he would give up if he beat someone, but when he saw Fan Enyu respectfully bowing to him, he had to return the courtesy.
Boss Liu said: "Thank you to the two sons for their love, and the concubine is grateful." Turned to Fan Enyu and said, "Xia Gongzi is a frequent visitor to our place, doesn't Fan Gongzi come to Beijing every year after Qingming, but what is the purpose of coming to the capital this time?" ”
"It's nothing, the main thing is to donate money a while ago to help me go west, and now the victory is still in the court, and the emperor has also sent people to give people many rewards, I was ordered by my father to come to Beijing to thank me. In addition, I fell in love with a large field in the southern suburbs of Kyoto, and wanted to buy a few acres of land to build a courtyard, so that I could have a place to stay when I returned to Beijing in the future. ”
"Then Fan Gongzi will remember to come to the shop often in the future!" Boss Liu smiled.
Fan Enyu clenched his fists and smiled: "It is inevitable!" ”
Xia Tong didn't want to stay here for a long time, so he said to Boss Liu: "Boss Liu, since that's the case, let's go back and continue to eat and drink!" ”
Fan Enyu also bowed to Boss Liu: "Boss Liu, you should be busy first, and we will go back to the room to continue eating." ”
So Fan Enyu's men opened the door and entered the house again, and all the people outside the corridor dispersed.
After Fan Enyu entered the house, his subordinates closed the door, and the room was silent for an instant, and the subordinates stood on both sides of the door with their heads bowed. Fan Enyu calmly instructed his subordinates: "You guys keep guard here, and no one is allowed to let them in." ”
"Yes!"
So Fan Enyu walked quickly to the inner room, and saw the person sitting at the round table in the inner room, with a handsome back, holding a teacup in his hand, sipping tea with relish, and a tall young man standing behind him.
"It's done!" Fan Enyu bowed to the man who was seated.
"There's Lao Fan Gongzi!" The voice is low and polite.
"Brother Lu is polite, it's just a gesture." Fan Enyu suddenly said with some embarrassment, "I'm afraid that if these things I did in the capital were known to my father, I don't know what to do!" ”
The man stood up and turned around, the person who came was Lu Zuo, and the person behind him was also his apprentice Yin Ji. Lu Zuo slowly walked up to Fan Enyu, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that there are still things that the eldest young master of the Fan family is afraid of in this world!" ”
"Brother Lu, don't make fun of me! If the confrontation with that Xia Tong just now really fought, I'm afraid that both families will not look good. ”
"Don't worry about this, I'll send someone to explain it to your father when I go back."
Fan Enyu frowned, "Thank you, Brother Lu!" ”
Lu Zuo waved his hand, "You're welcome, it should be me who thanked you for doing me such a big favor." ”
Fan Enyu asked with a smile: "Brother Lu, why do you want me to help you find trouble with Xia Tong?" He is the son of Tobe Shangshu Xia Jingying! ”
