Chapter 081: Lower Corner Tower
According to the layout of the rich in the east and the rich in the north and the poor in the south, Yangxin Street is located in the southwest of Jinling City, and the carriage drove for a while before arriving at the place.
Lin Liu got out of the carriage and didn't go directly to the lower corner tower to find Gu Ming, but took a fan and pretended to walk around the street and bought two inconspicuous gadgets.
The two little servants who followed Lin Liu, Hanshan and Qingshu, saw that Lin Liu was quite happy and did not disturb him. They are also half-grown boys, with the vitality of young people, so they just think that the poor second young master has been detained in the mansion and is ruthless, and now they are finally out of the mansion or they have to work hard to spread joy.
However, it didn't take long for the sun to climb above people's heads, Hanshan and Qingshu glanced at each other, and still stepped forward and said, "Second master, it's already noon, are we going home?" "Eating is a big deal.
Lin Liu said with a smile: "It's hard to go out of the house, let's eat outside today, I brought the silver out, I heard the eldest brother say that the whole duck in the lower corner tower of Yangxin Street is good, let's go to the lower corner tower today." ”
"Good!" Hanshan and Qingshu were both happy, the Lin family's meals were not bad, but they were all the same for more than ten years, and they were tired of eating for more than ten years, and it was not bad to taste the dishes outside occasionally, and the most important thing was that they didn't need to give them silver.
Lin Liu led Hanshan and Qingshu to the lower corner tower.
As the name suggests, the whole building is a corner tower type, and the appearance is particularly eye-catching in all Jinling buildings, because the corner tower is generally built in the four corners of the city instead of the middle of the city. It is because of this nondescript, although the dishes in the lower corner tower are very good and well received by wealthy businessmen, but they have not entered the mainstream society, and the official eunuchs in this era are the mainstream society.
chose a private room with a window on the street, and ordered a few signature dishes from the lower corner building, Lin Liu said with a smile: "You go to eat next to you, I don't have to serve here." "Don't say that he has important things today, but no, as the master, unless it is at a special time, it is impossible for Lin Liu to eat at the same table with his subordinates, and it will be miserable if Lin Liu is known.
Hanshan and Qingshu both knew Lin Liu's habits, and they didn't like to have someone serving vegetables on the side when they were eating, so they didn't persuade them when they heard the words, but just responded: "Yes!" ”
said that it was next to him, but in the end, the two of them were Lin Liu's little servants, even if the master didn't let them serve them closely, they had to wait, so after exiting the private room, they sat down at a table in the hall outside the private room, and their eyes looked at the private room from time to time, if Lin Liu needed it, they would go over as soon as possible.
Lin Liu sat by the window, looking at the traffic outside, quietly thinking about what he was going to say next.
After the guys in the lower corner tower finished serving the dishes and closed the door and retreated, Lin Liu knocked on the pure wood carved partition wall on the left with his hand rhythmically, and then took two steps back.
Then a very miraculous thing happened, the partition wall revealed a gap in the middle, and then the gap gradually expanded, forming a small door, and before Lin Liu could look over, a figure came out of it, this person was really Gu Ming.
"Sit down!" Lin Liu was surprised and greeted in a low voice.
Gu Ming nodded, didn't close the small door, and sat lightly on the chair, "I don't know what the second master commands." ”
There wasn't much time, so Lin Liu wasn't prepared to go around the bend with Gu Ming, he believed that even if he said that he was going to rebel, Gu Ming wouldn't help him at most and wouldn't reveal it.
After all, in terms of blood, Gu Ming is Lin Liu's uncle, although he is a descendant of the Lin family in the Lin family, it is conceivable that once Lin Ruhai and Lin Liu are separated in the future, Gu Ming's family will definitely be assigned to Lin Liu, and now he can say that he and Lin Liu are grasshoppers on a grass rope, and only when Lin Liu is good can he rely on Lin Liu's fox and fake tiger power.
"Is there a way to put eyeliner in someone else's house?" Lin Liu asked in a straightforward low voice.
Gu Ming's eyes widened instantly, he didn't expect that Lin Liu wanted to play such a big thing when he called him this time, he originally thought that Lin Liu was going to ask him about the workshop.
However, just as Lin Liu thought, Gu Ming at this time was still wholeheartedly devoted to Lin Liu, so even if he was shocked by Lin Liu's words, he did not immediately refute it, but thought about it carefully, thought about it and said: "I am afraid that this matter of the second master is very difficult, even if it is difficult for a few years, it is really difficult to guarantee loyalty, you think about the Jinyiwei, East Factory, West Factory, and Inner Factory of the previous dynasty are so powerful, but in the end?" It's not that corrupt officials are rampant, they themselves are greedy, and the thieves raided the homes of those ministers in Beijing back then, and one or two of them were richer than the state treasury. And it is precisely because of the previous dynasty that all the prefectures are on guard against this, but it is okay to buy one or two subordinates to inquire about some things that are not very private. ”
Inserting eyeliner is easier said than done, especially if you can't guarantee the loyalty of the candidate, it means that others may not see that some people are more promising, and they will sell you immediately, the royal family can't do this, Gu Ming doesn't think he can do it.
Hearing this, Lin Liu was not disappointed, because he didn't have much hope for this, just in case he asked, just in case, in case there was a way.
"In that case, forget it."
The risk is not small if the buyer inquires about the news or something, especially the Jia family is not bad now, and the behavior is also very rigorous, and it is impossible for even the subordinates to dare to scold the master, saying that the Jia family only has two stone lions in front of the door to be clean.
Don't think about Lin Liu crookedly, he wants to plant nails in Jia's house, on the one hand, because the children of the older generation once speculated that there would be at least one seizure of the heir before the beginning of "Dream of Red Mansions", and it is speculated that the Jia family is betting on the wrong person, so the eldest sons of Jia Jing and Jia Yu will be abolished.
On the other hand, Lin Liu did this for the sake of Jia Yu's original partner Yang, many people said that Jia Yu's original partner and Jia Zhu would not die, and the Jia family would not be so unlucky. Although Lin Liu didn't believe it, but the Yang family was Lin Liu's cousin, and Jia Min would become Lin Liu's sister-in-law, so why not try to save the Jia family? said that it may not be possible to fish out the Jia family.
Of course, for the Jia family, he is not as deep as Lin Ruhai, and the Jia family did not give him any benefits, saying that he may not be able to suppress himself because of Lin Ruhai in the future, and Lin Liu is not the Holy Father who has to work hard to help the Jia family. is still the same sentence, under the condition that it will not damage his own interests, Lin Liu is very willing to be a good person, after all, it is better to have one more powerful relative than one more relative who pulls his legs.
In addition, the Jia family is also a family that is taken care of by the police illusion fairy aunt and a monk.
Lin Liu has always had an idea, that monk seduces people to become monks, but they are all waiting for the family to be broken and killed, if the Jia family has been so rich and prosperous, will Jia Baoyu still become a monk?
