Chapter 107: Turmoil in the Martial Arts Gate (First Update)
The relationship is familiar in many places.
Xu Yan and his eldest brother Hong Yang practiced yoga for a while, and then began to chat about the legendary repertoire, chatting and chatting naturally about "The Peony Pavilion".
Hong Yang was very interested in the Peony Pavilion, and Xu Yan also talked eloquently, and the two talked happily.
So much so that Hong Yang was reluctant to leave.
But separation is always inevitable, and finally sent away the future eldest brother, Xu Yan was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.
I can't see that Hong Yang is not only a lover of literature and art, but also a fitness expert.
If Xu Yan hadn't thought of yoga in a flash, God knows what Hong Yan would have said.
It would be too bad if it affected the future uncle's perception of him.
Xu Yan had lunch at his grandfather's house, so he decided to go to Miaofeng Hall to have a look.
Now the Xu family has opened several branches in Hangzhou, but the head office is still pouring into Kinmen.
said that after Xu Yan came to the Yongjinmen main store, he found that Xu Wei was not in the store, and after a little inquiry, he learned that Xu Wei had gone to Wulinmen.
It turned out that Xu Wei took a fancy to the prosperity of Wulinmen and opened a branch there.
Now that the new store has opened, his focus is there.
I have to say that Xu Wei's vision is really good. Wulin Gate is the gateway to the north of Hangzhou, west of the Taohua River, and West Lake.
As the north gate of Hangzhou City, Wulin Gate is directly connected to the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal and is a prosperous market.
When the sun sets, 'the sails are unmoored and the department store is put on the market', and after nightfall, it is still 'the candle fire is lit like the day'.
In comparison, Yongjinmen is somewhat dwarfed.
When Xu Yan rushed to the Wulin Gate, he saw the plaque of Miaofeng Hall in a very conspicuous position.
In this prime location, the traffic is naturally top-notch, and it can be said that the shop near Wulin Gate has no disadvantages except that it is expensive.
Xu Yan entered the store, and sure enough, he saw Xu Wei directing his men to sort out the books.
He stepped forward to say hello, and Xu Wei reacted and greeted him with a smile.
"Childe, I haven't seen you for a long time."
Xu Yan also sighed: "The last time I said goodbye to Brother Wen, it was only a few months before I was able to see each other. ”
"Childe, please come inside."
Xu Wei let Xu Yan into the backyard and poured him hot tea, and then said angrily: "The "Peony Pavilion" sent by the prince is really a shocking work. As soon as it was launched, it was robbed, and its popularity was no less than that of "Journey to the West". Childe is really a god and a man. ”
Xu Yanxin said that there is certainly a reason for the excellent quality of "The Peony Pavilion", and it also has a lot to do with the good foundation laid by "Journey to the West".
After all, "Journey to the West" was first launched by Miaofengtang, and it unconsciously left a good impression on the people of Hangzhou.
Therefore, Miaofengtang will launch a new book, which is guaranteed by word of mouth.
On this basis, "The Peony Pavilion" became popular again, and I am afraid that Miaofengtang will get the title of "produced by the Xu family, it must be a boutique" in the future.
"Brother Wen praised it, I also got this "Peony Pavilion" by chance, so I was lucky."
In any case, Xu Yan will not admit that he is the author of "The Peony Pavilion".
Although Tang Xianzu and his old man did not make any trouble because of writing "The Peony Pavilion", it is better to be careful in everything, so as not to give people a handle.
Xu Wei sighed: "It's a pity if such a good repertoire is not sung." Xu made his own assertion and cooperated with the Cheng family opera troupe and the He family restaurant, and sang on stage in the restaurant every day, but he also made a lot of money. ”
Xu Yan said in his heart that Xu Wei is quite business-minded, and the Ming Dynasty opera troupe has a prototype for later generations, but there is generally no fixed place to sing.
So they all cooperate with restaurants and teahouses, and sing wherever they go.
"Brother Wen is doing things, I don't worry."
The two talked happily, and when they were chatting, He Changli, the shopkeeper of the He family restaurant, came with a sad face.
Xu Yan saw that his square scarf was torn off, his sleeves were torn, and he even had a blue nose and swollen face, obviously he had just had an argument with someone.
"Shopkeeper Xu, we can't cooperate in this business."
He Changli didn't look at Xu Yan, but cried to Xu Wei: "You and the Cheng family opera troupe should find another place." ”
Xu Wei couldn't help frowning and said, "What does Shopkeeper He, mean?" ”
He Changli shook his head and sighed: "My peers are enemies, this time I robbed the Zhao family's business because I let Cheng Jiaban sing in the restaurant." The Zhao family was annoyed and angry, and sent people to smash the store and drive people out, shopkeeper Xu, tell me how to do this business? ”
Xu Wei looked angry: "Shopkeeper He's injury was also beaten by the Zhao family?" ”
He Changli sighed: "This time it's just some flesh wounds, I don't dare to think about it next time." ”
Xu Yan couldn't help it, and asked: "This Zhao family is lawless, what is the background of Tongtian?" ”
He Changli saw Xu Yan dressed as a scholar, sat next to Xu Wei again, and wondered: "Who is this son?" ”
"This is the proprietor of a certain house."
Xu Wei hurriedly introduced.
He Changli hurriedly arched his hand and said: "It turned out to be the proprietor of Xu, disrespectful and disrespectful." ”
He Changli paused slightly, swallowed a mouthful of foam and said: "This Zhao family was originally a big family in Cixi County, Ningbo Prefecture, but later because of a Jinshi who won the Taoist chicken dog ascension to heaven, it was not enough to be powerful in Cixi, so he moved to Hangzhou to enjoy. ”
"His family is mainly engaged in the restaurant business, which is in the Wulinmen generation. A few years ago, there were some scruples, but in recent years, it has become more and more blatant bullying and dominating the market. I heard that it was because the Jinshi became a big official in Beijing, so he had no fear. If someone 'robs' his business, he will inevitably be beaten. ”
"If you are interested, you will take the initiative to admit it. I'm afraid that I can't stay in this Hangzhou realm if I don't know anything. ”
Xu Yan couldn't help frowning.
"Why are the people of the Zhao family so shameless? But I don't know what the name of the big official is? ”
"I heard what it's called, Zhao Wenhua."
He Changli recalled for a moment.
Hearing this name, Xu Yan was a spirit.
Zhao Wenhua?
It's a name he's all too familiar with!
Xu Yan, who specializes in the history of Jiajing, hates it every time he sees this name.
As the number one dog leg of the Yan Party, Zhao Wenhua can be said to do all kinds of evil.
The most famous is the 34th year of Jiajing, Zhao Wenhua inspected the evil deeds of the southeast anti-Japanese war as a waiter of the Ministry of Industry. At that time, the governor Zhang Jing won the victory of Wang Jiangjing, but Zhao Wenhua took the risk of his own merit and wrote to impeach the governor Zhang Jing and the governor Li Tian to raise his own respect. Emperor Jiajing believed slander and unjustly killed Zhang Jing and Li Tianzhong.
That's when Hu Zongxian came to power.
Of course, Zhao Wenhua at this time did not have such great energy.
After Jiajing was a junior in the eighth year, Zhao Wenhua was first appointed as the head of the official punishment department, which was inconspicuous.
But Zhao Wenhua is an unscrupulous person who wants to be promoted, and he worships Yan Song as his father-in-law.
Yan Song was photographed very comfortably, and Zhao Wenhua was promoted, and Zhao Wenhua rose all the way.
