Chapter 37: Angry and Corrupt
As dusk passed, night came, a bright moon hung high, and the stars were scattered around. The dancing pavilions are full of traffic, and the brilliant lights echo with the soft night.
Jingzhou, is the base camp of Sijiabao, now Si Shaodong became the owner of the fort, extravagant, indulged in flower street and willow lane all day long, the arrival of the night, means that Si Shaodong's night life is coming again.
The night was shrouded, the bright moonlight covered the earth, and the lanterns of various colors on the street were hung high, one after another, illuminating the bluestone pavement, illuminating the crowd, and illuminating the whole street.
The vendors were smiling and chatting with the customers, and the women with heavy makeup were smiling with the men. Children linger in front of the stalls selling knick-knacks, begging their mothers for treasures. The women talked together about the shortcomings of the families, and carried baskets to buy vegetables and fabrics, and some of the poor women had to bargain with the vendors. Men are mostly in groups of three or five, calling each other brothers and sisters, talking about those national affairs, family affairs, and world affairs.
Some of the drunk guests in the restaurant box leaned out of the window and shouted, if they were literati and ink writers, they were chanting poems written by themselves or others. Occasionally, a sedan chair would pass through the street, and everyone would give way and point to something.
All the sounds are intertwined and mixed, but people can't really hear it, but they feel the atmosphere of prosperity coming to their faces.
One of the largest green buildings in Jingzhou, Fengyue Pavilion, has already started its night business.
Brightly dressed women stood by the door, some with their hair coiled, all kinds of hairpins and silver hairpins pinned to their heads, and some with double flying buns pinned to hostas and swaying, etc., with different styles of clothes, but they were all dressed brightly.
They waved their handkerchiefs and kept greeting the people passing by the door, using their natural advantages to do everything they could to attract guests for the Wind Moon Pavilion.
Occasionally, when a few sons and brothers who often linger in the flower building arrive, they immediately smile and flatteringly lead their "distinguished guests" to the museum, sometimes they cover their mouths with handkerchiefs and chuckle, and keep twisting their graceful figures, trying to catch up with such a rich son.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the slave family will show you the way." At this moment, a few young masters dressed in luxury came, and as soon as the women of the Fengyue Pavilion saw the visitors, they were so diligent that they led the people to the pavilion.
The person who came was Si Shaodong and his fox friends and dogs, as well as his newly recruited staff.
I saw Si Shaodong wearing a purple straight brocade robe, with long hair neatly tied, a gilt hollow hair crown pinned to it, a black wide-brimmed gold-inlaid belt around his waist, a jade pendant on it, a pair of black boots on his feet, a jade fan in his right hand, his chin slightly raised, and a little pride in his apricot eyes, quite a momentum of no one in his eyes.
With him are several famous young masters in Jingzhou, who fight cocks, dogs, crickets, and crickets on weekdays, lingering in the willow alleys of flower streets, everywhere.
The person on the left looks like he has just reached the age of the crown, dressed in a cyan Yunluo brocade robe, holding a paper fan, with the fan opened, the four characters of the book Fenghua Xueyue, the fan is a good texture, that is, the person who holds the fan is cynical, his eyes are frivolous, and he gives birth to a momentum of a good idle boy, of course, this is not false.
This person's name is Zhao Xifeng, he is the only son of the Zhao family in Jingzhou, and he is a stubborn person, and he often follows the children of Jingzhou, which makes the head of the Zhao family have a headache, but his wife protects this son tightly and wants to discipline him strictly and is stopped by his wife.
Old man Zhao is old and has a son, naturally he wants his son to become a dragon, but his wife has doted on him many times, and he has developed a gentlemanly temperament who is not afraid of the sky and the earth, even if he ruthlessly cut off his silver money and grounded him at home, but when he went to deal with affairs, his wife quietly stuffed silver two to him, for fear of wronging his baby son.
Then Zhao Xifeng, who got the money, turned his head and was able to climb the wall and get out of Zhao's mansion, and go to his fox friends again.
This made his father sad and white-headed, and he gave birth to such a son, so he really wanted to beat him hard, and it was thunder and rain, hey.
On the side of the gold-trimmed boy's robe is Yu Wenyong, seven feet tall, slightly chubby, with a smile on his somewhat round face, looking simple, and his name is different, but this character is not bad with arrogance, this person likes to gamble very much, and runs to the casino as soon as he gets the money.
Yuwen's family opened a casino in Jingzhou, Xu is his own family is to run a casino, Yuwen Yong likes to gamble since he was a child, and often runs to the gambling house, the head of the Yuwen family can't cry or laugh about it, thinking that it is his own business, as long as it is not a major matter of the casino, he went with him.
As for the staff who has been standing behind Si Shaodong in a low-key manner, he is dressed in black, and he is inconspicuous in front of several young men who are dressed in silk and satin, but he is such a person, who secretly provoked the change in Sijiabao, but no one knows.
Under the guidance of Hua Niang, a group of four people entered the Fengyue Pavilion familiarly, saying that they were leading the way, but they just wanted to show their faces in front of these rich young masters.
"What kind of wind is blowing Si Dashao here today, girls, aren't you waiting for you?" The housekeeper's mother of the Fengyue Pavilion immediately twisted her waist and stepped forward, pinching the handkerchief in one hand, while calling in her unique voice for the girls to come out and serve the distinguished guests.
Now that this division has become the owner of the castle, he has made a generous move, and he can leak a little bit between his fingers, which is enough for them to eat and wear.
What's more, there is also the Yuwen son of the casino family, as well as the son of the Zhao family, these are all her God of Wealth, can't they be entertained well?
"Mei Niang, you are really getting younger and younger, you want the peony last time, I feel sorry for it, Uncle Ben likes it." This time, it was Yuwen Yong who spoke first, and shouted to let the peony girl come out.
This peony girl is not only a unique beauty, but also a good talent, after the last time he came with his brothers, he will never forget the peony girl.
No, as soon as he came, he asked the peony girl to come out by name.
The regular customers here all know that this Mei Niang is the mother in charge, and only the newcomers don't know the name of this mother.
"Yes, yes, this peony, it's resting on the third floor." Mei Niang moved her small steps flatteringly, and said angrily.
"That's not in a hurry, it's still the guest room on the third floor." Si Shaodong spoke, and then he was about to step up the stairs.
"Don't be in a hurry, let's serve a table of wine and food first, call the two girls to sing and dance, and our brothers will have a few drinks first." It's this Zhao Xifeng, who was recruited by his buddies in the evening, and he hasn't had dinner yet, so his stomach is singing empty city plans.
"Girls, why don't you serve some food and drink? Let the peony and lily stroke the piano and dance. When Mei Niang heard this, she was very happy, and immediately ordered.
Then he led a few courteous sons to the guest room on the third floor.
The group walked up to the third floor and took their seats, and soon after, someone came up with wine and food.
"A few young masters, try this new dish, Ying'er, why don't you pour the wine soon?" Mei Niang has a little hatred that iron is not steel, this is the God of Wealth of Fengyue Pavilion, how can she be lazy?
"Yes, Mom." When Ying'er, who was dressed in a pink gauze skirt, heard this, she immediately stepped forward with lotus steps, picked up the wine jar, and filled them one by one.
"Okay, Mei Niang, you go down first." Si Shaodong opened his mouth and handed a purse to Mei Niang, as for Mei Niang, she secretly checked the purse, and immediately smiled, "The girls are so entertained." Then, he walked out with a twisted waist.
The sound of the piano is curling, such as crying and complaining, like silk, and there is laughter in the Fengyue Pavilion, and the paper is drunk and golden.
The next day, Sijiabaoli
"Castle master, there is news from Huadu, say,,," A subordinate respectfully entered the study to report, but the words behind him were not spoken, and the whole person trembled a little.
"Say what? Huh?" Si Shaodong spoke lazily, not thinking that he could let that kid run away after sending so many people.
"It was said that the person ran away, and when our people went to the Drunken Immortal Residence, they found that the person was gone." The subordinate didn't dare to speak as soon as possible, but he still trembled under the pressure of the castle lord to tell the story.
"What? Can you still watch a good person? Do you all eat dry rice? Yes! A group of waste, and then continue to search, live to see people, dead to see corpses. When Si Shaodong heard this, he was a little angry, and raised his hand and smashed the vase on the side.
Boom!
The vase fell to the ground in an instant and fell to pieces, which shocked the subordinate who reported the news.
Since Si Shaodong became the lord of the castle, he has become more and more lawless, and his temper has become more and more rising, if he doesn't pay attention to it, he will be scolded, which makes the people of Sijiabao panic, and many people secretly hope that the young master can come back to preside over the overall situation.
The staff standing behind him heard this, his face was extremely gloomy, such a good opportunity could make that person run away, a bunch of fools.
However, this Si Shaoyu is indeed a hidden danger, and it seems that he has to ask his master.
"Yes, yes, yes." The subordinate said yes again and again.
"Why don't you go down quickly? Why are you stunned?" Si Shaodong waved his hand and scolded him.
The man hurriedly took the order to leave the study, and only breathed a sigh of relief after knowing that the work of reporting the news of the previous young master was not easy to do, and every time news came that was not as good as the castle owner's intentions, he was beaten or scolded, and there were already many brothers who were indignant in their hearts.
Some people feel sorry for the former young lord, but some people flatter the current castle owner, even if they are united like Sijiabao, now because of the old castle lord and the current castle lord and the former young lord, there is a gap, for a while, it can be seen.
In the study, Si Shaodong was still angry at this time, and he threw another set of good ink rooms in a puzzled manner, completely ignoring the cruel expression of the staff behind him.
"Wu Yong, you are my military advisor, in your opinion, what should be done in this matter?" After venting for a while, Si Shaodong turned around and asked about his dog-headed military advisor.
Seeing this, the staff member also quickly put away his expression, as if changing his face, he changed to a harmless expression like before.
"Castle Master, we can go and ask the people of Lonely Mountain Villa to help, and we will definitely succeed." Wu Yong, even the staff member also opened his mouth to offer advice.
"Oh? I've heard of the fame of this Lonely Hills, but I don't know much about the process of asking someone to do something, do you know?" As soon as Si Shaodong heard about the Lonely Mountain Villa, he also raised his spirits.
The newly rising power of this Lonely Villa not long ago was not favored at first, but his rapid rise did slap everyone's face, and I heard that the task they received rarely failed, but this process is more cumbersome, after all, they have to do an investigation first to take the task of Lonely Villa, and they are not willing to take the task until the level is determined, once the task is taken, it will usually be completed in a short time, yes, and now many people in the rivers and lakes will choose to entrust Lonely Villa.
"The subordinates know, if the castle lord can trust him, how about leaving this matter to be completed in the future?" Wu Yong also has some calculations in his heart, he has taken the initiative to speak, so he can take the opportunity to leave for a while.
"Oh? If there is anything to worry about, then the matter will be left to you, and it must be done. Si Shaodong was relieved to hand over the matter to Wu Yong, and he waved his hand, indicating that he wanted to go out.
