Chapter 161: Ling Xia's Thick Black Study
Hearing that those big families had a deep heritage, Ling Xia thought about it and asked casually: "Then how much money do they have at this moment?" ”
"Family? Is this one? Chen Fuchen thought for a while, and said back: "Those families have been entrenched in the business world for so many years, and their family background must be extremely solid, take the Dou family as an example, if they mobilize the national branch, in addition to the 20 million stone grain that arrived this time, all kinds of grain can also make up another 50 million stone." ”
"So powerful?" Ling Xia blinked in surprise, then he hesitated, and then, Ling Xia stood up, he glanced at the governors, and said with a smile: "Let's go, let's go around those business families and visit those God of Wealth." ”
Dingyi Province Doujia is located at the foot of the quiet mountain in the south of the city, covers an area of thousands of hectares, the courtyard wall is like two long dragons like a long winding stretch, in front of the door is a stone step road of 100 meters wide, through the gate, the buildings stand in a forest, the pavilions are all over, the beautiful rockery, the clear water lake, the fragrant garden, let people be in it as if walking in the fairyland.
Because someone had been sent to pass it on in advance, when Ling Xia and the others rushed to the door of Doufu, Dou Anguang, the eldest son of Doufu, had already led the family lineage to stand at the door in advance to greet him, and through the corridor of the three alleys, Ling Xia and his party were greeted to the residence of the patriarch Dou Changde.
When Ling Xia entered the patriarch's residence, dozens of maids took turns to bring various fruits to the table in turn, and the fruits were arranged, and more than a dozen housekeepers were waiting from the door with food boxes, and then, the girls went to the door to bring the food boxes in.
Open the food box, only to see that there are a series of delicacies inside, roughly counting, there are more than 40 delicacies, sauce hoof tendons, steamed crabs, charcoal roasted pigeon, stewed meat with fermented bean curd, jar pork ribs, stuffy sea fish, clear soup donkey meat, oily wild geese, braised beef......
After everyone was seated, the maids stood behind everyone and were responsible for pouring wine, and at this time, Dou An Guang excitedly instructed the housekeeper: "Today, the master of the horse and the governors are visiting, the humble house is full of flowers, serve tea, and go to the study to bring the jar of snow lotus." ”
Hearing the order, the official family went out, and after a while, the housekeeper returned to the living room with a jade jar, distributed the tea leaves in the jade jar to everyone, and ordered someone to go to the ice cellar to get the snow to melt and boil and send it.
"Master Horse, this is my father's treasured "Snow Lotus Silk", this is the world's only strange tea, the growth conditions are extremely harsh, only the snow region of the world has this strange thing on the 10,000-meter snow peak, Snow Lotus Silk only grows seven plants per stubble.
Each of the seven snow lotus silks is guarded by a kind of snow beast, which matures once every fifty years, and each time it matures, it only exists for a quarter of an hour, if no one picks it within a quarter of an hour, it will turn into ice crystals and dry up, and if you miss this time, you can only wait for another fifty years.
In order to collect this snow lotus silk, my father sent thousands of people to guard the snow territory, and it took 30 years to successfully collect seven taels of snow lotus silk, for this snow lotus silk, my father lost more than 200 people, and after transporting it back, my father regarded it as a treasure and never let me wait to get involved.
The effect of this tea is magical, it can detoxify all kinds of poisons, it can eliminate thousands of diseases, it can prolong life after use, it can strengthen the body, and even increase the cultivation of martial artists. ”
Introduced here, Dou Anguang pointed to the jade jar and said proudly: "After this tea came to my Doufu, someone once asked for it at a sky-high price, one million jade coins and one tael, but my father refused without hesitation, hehe----- you adults have a good mouth today." ”
Dou Anguang was talking freely, and suddenly, a ragged, patched, unshaven, sloppy old man with a crutch came in from the back hall with a broken bowl, and after seeing this person, Dou Anguang was stunned: "Where did you come from......
As soon as the words came to his mouth, Dou Anguang was suddenly stunned, rubbed his eyes, he hurriedly stopped the words in his mouth, and ran to the old man with a sluggish face: "Dad, didn't you go to the back hall to return your clothes?" How did you get this virtue? The children didn't even recognize it. ”
When he said this, Dou Anguang did not recognize that the old man was his father, fortunately he reacted in time, otherwise when he scolded all the swear words, he would definitely be beaten by his father, it turned out that this old man named Huazi turned out to be the richest man in Dingyi Province, the patriarch of the Dou family, Dou Changde.
After Dou Changde came out, he just wanted to say something, but when he saw the delicacies on the table, his face suddenly changed in anger, and he quietly glanced at everyone, when he saw Ling Xia sitting on the main seat, Dou Changde secretly looked at it, felt Dou Changde's gaze, Ling Xia raised his head and showed a sunny smile at him.
Seeing Ling Xia smiling at himself again, Dou Changde first replied with a polite and respectful smile, and then, he picked up the crutch in his hand and hit Dou Anguang fiercely, this scene made everyone confused, Ling Xia was also stunned, I don't know what he is doing?
Ignoring the doubts in everyone's eyes, Dou Changde scolded while beating: "You unfilial rebel, right now, there are disasters one after another, there are disaster victims all around, and the big guy can't even eat, you are actually talking about pomp and circumstance here, do you know how much food these dishes can be exchanged for?"
The master of the horse and the governors have been working day and night for the affairs of the disaster area, in order to help the four surrounding territories to help the victims of the disaster, the master of the horse is worried about sleeping and eating, and now you are actually engaging in extravagance and waste in front of the master and the adults, I will kill your turtle grandson. ”
After beating and scolding Dou Anguang, Dou Changde walked to the door and shouted towards the courtyard: "Butler, go to the warehouse to get 10,000 stone of rice, Master Ma wants to help the people from Yanxiu Xinjiang, although our Dou family is a small businessman, but at this time we can't be ambiguous, and immediately donate those grains." ”
"This old guy is not simple, he actually guessed the purpose of my here." Looking at Dou Changde's words and deeds in his eyes, Ling Xia suddenly showed a smile: "Douyuanwai is indeed a charity home, come on, these drinks and dishes are almost cold, Douyuanwai hurry up and sit down." ”
"I don't sit, I don't sit, I can't eat, I think about the people who have been affected by the disaster." Dou Changde put on a sad expression.
"Really." After smiling, Ling Xia stared at Dou Changde with a smile, pondered for a moment, and said slowly: "Since Dou Yuan is worried about the people in the disaster area, then I will give you a chance, how about you lend me some food?" ”
"Borrow food?" After listening to Ling Xia's words, everyone including Chen Fuchen was stunned, no one thought that Ling Xia would ask the Dou family to borrow food, after coming back to his senses, Dou Anguang muttered with a displeased face: "You haven't paid for the food you bought from my family, and now you come to borrow food again, what do you think of us?" Wronged, huh? If you don't borrow it, you won't borrow a grain of rice. ”
"In that case, then your family can enjoy this delicious meal, if you don't eat it, you won't have a chance in the future." Ling Xia said with a smile.
Hearing this, everyone was stunned......
