Chapter 261: Good Things Come in Pairs

Master He hurriedly sent someone to find the official who managed the household registration to inquire, and sure enough, as Liu He said, the population registered in Moling is now close to 110,000 households.

Master He was overjoyed when he learned about it, and since this is the case, he can also take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune.

He looked at Liu He, who was waiting quietly, rolled his eyes, and asked, "I don't know who you want me to help nominate a candidate for filial piety?" ”

Of course, Liu He knew everything about Master He's thoughts, he just wanted to get more benefits with this new order of the imperial court, and it was best to get a long-term meal ticket.

"His name is Zhong Lixun, and he is Master Tao's future son-in-law, and these gold bars are the meeting gifts that Master Tao gave to Master He." Liu He said, and deliberately opened the brocade box, and put the golden gold bar in front of Master He.

Master He thought for a moment and asked, "Master Tao?" But the local wealthy businessman, Mr. Tao? ”

Liu He smiled and nodded, "Master Tao said, I want to make friends with Master He, today in Yunqing Teahouse, please talk about ...... Master He."

This kind of great opportunity to make money, how could Master He let it go, without waiting for Liu He to finish speaking, he agreed to come down.

But Liu He looked like he wanted to say something, "I just have a sentence, I don't know if I should say it or not......"

When Master He saw it, he hurriedly said, "There is something, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

Liu He nodded, "Since Master He said so, I might as well make it clear to Master He." That old man Tao is a straightforward person, and if after meeting him for a while, he can hear that his future son-in-law can already ensure that he is recommended to be filial piety, I think he will be very happy. Master He is a smart man, I don't think I need to talk about the rest of the matter, right? ”

Master He smiled slyly, "Understood, understood, that Zhongli...... Zhong Lixun, from now on, is already the filial piety elected by the county. ”

Liu He smiled and clenched his fists, "Okay, Master He, see you in Yunqing Teahouse in half an hour." ”

Coming out of He Fuzhong, Liu He called Tai Meng and Qian Zhuan, and after whispering a few words, the two immediately took the order and left.

The matter has been done, and the next step is to go back to the Yunqing Teahouse and meet with Master Tao and Master He.

When he arrived at the Yunqing Teahouse, Liu He walked straight to the private room that had been arranged on the second floor, and came to Zhong Lixun's side and sat down.

"Don't say anything for a while, just listen to me." Liu He said with a smile.

Zhong Lixun nodded silently, but there was obviously a trace of nervousness on his face.

Not long after, the two masters arrived as promised, and as soon as they entered the teahouse, they saw Zhong Lixun beside Liu He, and knew that this was the person Liu He told them about.

After taking a seat, Liu He introduced Master Tao and Master He to each other, while Zhong Lixun, as agreed just now, always sat aside without saying a word.

Master Tao took the lead and said: "Master He, I have to thank you well, my future son-in-law is grateful to you for promoting filial piety." ”

Master He hurriedly waved his hand, "Master Tao said so, but it's too outward, speaking of which, I have always regarded Zhongli Xun as my righteous son, and I only learned about his marriage today, I am really ashamed, ashamed." ”

When Master Tao heard Zhong Lixun's name for the first time, he was stunned at first, and then hurriedly echoed: "Zhong Lixun, this child, I grew up watching him, and the marriage contract between him and my daughter was also set when they were young, but for so many years, they have not mentioned it again, and it is reasonable that Lord He does not know." ”

On the one hand, Zhong Lixun is said to be regarded as his own righteous son, and on the other hand, Zhong Lixun's marriage is said to be the fingertips of childhood sweethearts, looking at the shameless faces of these two masters, Liu He smiled faintly and looked at Zhong Lixun beside him.

Zhong Lixun was obviously a little surprised, how did these two dignitaries who did not hesitate to look at him on weekdays suddenly become their own father-in-law, and the other became their father-in-law?

When he saw Liu He looking at him with a playful smile, he realized that this was all Liu He's masterpiece.

The more the two men chatted, the more speculative they became, and finally the two agreed that three days later, Master Tao would set up a banquet at home and invite Master He to the banquet, along with the local wealthy businessmen that Master Tao was familiar with. First, everyone knows each other and makes friends, and secondly, by the way, the wedding date of Zhong Lixun and the daughter of the Tao family is set, which can be regarded as a simple engagement ceremony.

After sending off the two masters, Liu He returned to his seat, looked at Zhong Lixun on the side, and was very proud, "In a few days, you can not only become Master Tao's fast son-in-law, but also be recommended as the next filial piety, you say, how can you thank me?" ”

It stands to reason that these two great good things fell on his head at the same time, and Zhongli Xun should have been happy, but he lowered his head and never said a word, as if he was thinking about something.

It wasn't until Liu He stepped forward and shook his hand a few times in front of his eyes that he smiled politely, but very reluctantly.

Liu He then smiled and said, "Are you so excited that you don't know what to say, or you can't believe it?" You can rest assured, the most reliable thing in this world is the relationship driven by interests. I dare to say that those two must be more anxious than you about your marriage and filial piety now. ”

Zhongli Xun shook his head, "I'm not thinking about that. ”

"And what are you thinking?" Liu He frowned, obviously not quite understanding this Zhongli Xun's tepid reaction.

Zhong Lixun pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked, "Childe's surname is Liu?" ”

Liu He nodded without hesitation.

Seeing that Liu He answered so happily, Zhong Lixun seemed even more hesitant, and after thinking for a while, he asked in a low voice: "Childe is Liu He and Liu Boxian?" ”

Liu He was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Yes, you know me?" ”

Zhong Lixun breathed a sigh of relief and shook his head with a wry smile, "Mr. Tianji came here, but he didn't shy away from his identity at all, and bluntly told me that such an unknown person, it seems that Mr. really has extraordinary courage as the rumors say." ”

Liu He pretended to be puzzled and said, "I don't know each other? I know your name, don't you and I know each other anymore? “

Zhong Lixun smiled faintly, "Don't you want to know, sir, how did I learn the identity of sir?" ”

Liu He leaned back with a big grin, put his hand on the windowsill, and looked out the window, "Then you don't need to ask, it must have been the little black fat man who told you." ”

"Little black fat man?" Zhongli pondered for a moment, a knowing smile on his face.

Liu He suddenly sat up straight and looked at Zhong Lixun carefully, "You kid just came out, you can't partner with that little black fat man to deceive me, right?" ”
