Chapter 312: Enveloping Means
Li Daqi has been operating cautiously in Bianjing in recent years, trying to avoid the powerful, and even rarely dealing with the government, he really can't get around, so he spends money to find a tooth man to help, even if he has been squeezed into the top ten businessmen in Bianjing, and has the title of Wu Delang, he is still used to dealing with the middle and lower class people, and he has a deep fear of the powerful.

But this time, in order to send a letter to his son and for his son's life, he had to come to Liang Shicheng's mansion, which is known as the hidden phase.
The time was dusk, it is estimated that Liang Shicheng should have come back at this time, Li Daqi took an ox cart to Liang Shicheng's mansion, he specially changed into a good silk shirt, wore a black gauze hat inlaid with beautiful jade, and changed his shoes into good deer boots.
He mustered up the courage to walk up the steps and said to the guard at the door: "Below is Li Daqi, the proprietor of Baoyan Zhai, who has an urgent matter to visit Mrs. Liang!" β
As he spoke, he quickly stuffed ten taels of silver into the guard's hand, "This is a little meaning, please have a cup of tea!" β
Several guards saw a strange man walking up the steps, and was about to scold and drive away, a piece of silver suddenly blocked their mouths, and heard that it was the proprietor of Baoyan Zhai, several people were immediately impressed, don't look at the status of the people is not high, but the waist bag is bulging more than anyone else.
Everyone glanced at each other and immediately realized that they must want to spend money to find Taifu to do things, there are many such people, and they are used to it.
The head guard hugged his fists and saluted and smiled: "It turned out to be Li Dongzhu, disrespectful, but there are some small rules in the house, Taifu generally does not accept foreign guests, it is the little master who is responsible for reception, if there is anything that needs Taifu's help, discuss with the little master, the price is more fair, and it will generally help you solve it." β
Another guard next to him also said: "It just so happens that the little master is on duty tonight, or Proprietor Li will come tomorrow!" Tomorrow or this time, we will report for you. β
Li Daqi was confused when he heard it, but the sentence 'fair price' suddenly made him wake up, and he hurriedly waved his hand, "I'm not looking for Taifu to help me do things, I'm sending an urgent letter to my son, he knows Taifu Liang." β
"Oh! I don't know who Ling Lang isβ"
"My son Li Yanqing is the third place in the imperial examination this year."
It turned out to be Li Yanqing's father, and the guards were even more respectful, and the first guard smiled: "We can transfer the letter for Li Dongzhu." β
Li Daqi hesitated, and his son specially told him again and again in the note that he should hand it over to Liang Shicheng by himself, and not let the doorman change hands, he thought about it, but this time he took out ten taels of gold and handed it to the guard, "Or please report it for me." β
This time it's gold! The head guard could no longer push back, so he had to accept the gold and said with a smile: "Then let's take the risk to report for Li Dongzhu!" β
Li Daqi hurriedly took out his prayer post, "It's going to be troublesome, big brother!" β
The guard entered the house with a post, and at this time, Liang Shicheng had just finished dinner and was taking a walk in the garden, when the housekeeper stepped forward and handed over a post, "Master, Li Daqi, the proprietor of Baoyan Zhai, said outside the door that he had something urgent to see, does the master want to see him?" β
Liang Shicheng was stunned, but immediately reacted, it turned out that Li Yanqing's father was looking for him, he took the post and looked at it, and said with a smile: "Please wait for him in your guest room!" β
The housekeeper turned around and went down, Liang Shicheng pondered for a moment, and didn't understand what Li Daqi was looking for him?
He went back to his room to change his clothes, and then walked to your room.
Li Daqi sat in your room and drank tea uneasily, seeing officials such as Tangyin Zhixian he could face it calmly, but now it is Liang Shicheng! Lian Xiangguo Cai Jingjing wants to face the powerful people respectfully, how can he not be nervous in his heart?
At this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and a middle-aged man of medium stature turned out from behind the screen, only to see that his skin was slightly dark, his appearance was not amazing, and he was wearing a very ordinary homestay shirt, Li Yanqing thought he was a housekeeper, but he still stood up, and the middle-aged man smiled and said: "It turns out that you are Yanqing's father!" β
Li Daqi reacted at this time, this middle-aged man turned out to be Liang Shicheng, he was suddenly shocked into a cold sweat, fortunately he was not rude, he hurriedly stepped forward and bowed, "Xiaomin Li Daqi see Taifu!" β
"You're welcome, if I'm not mistaken, you also have an official name, not a small person, please take a seat!"
Li Daqi wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, he didn't expect Liang Shicheng to be so ordinary-looking, and he looked very much like his cousin Li Dayin.
He sat down, hurriedly took out the letter in his arms and handed it to Liang Shicheng, "This is my son asking me to send a letter to Taifu, it's really a bit abrupt." β
"Nothing!"
Liang Shicheng smiled and waved his hand, "I also care about Yanqing!" I'm glad he could write to me. β
Liang Shicheng was not in a hurry to read the letter, but put the letter aside, and said with a smile: "Baoyan Zhai's things are really good, even I use that kind of jasmine balm, Li Dongzhu should have made a lot of money in recent years!" β
Li Daqi's heart jumped suddenly, and he smiled dryly for a while: "It's just a little bit of money." β
Liang Shicheng laughed, "Don't misunderstand Li Dongzhu, I don't have the idea of beating you for money, on the contrary, if Baoyan Zhai has any difficulties or troubles in the future, tell me, and I will do my best to help." β
Li Daqi breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and hurriedly got up and saluted, "Thank you Taifu for your kindness, Daqi is grateful!" β
Liang Shicheng smiled faintly, "I won't say this easily, I'm for your son's sake, your son is a great talent, he can do something big, not only I can see it, but Tong Taiwei can see it, but I and Tong Taiwei have different methods of employing people, just like the ancient times to control the water, Tong Taiwei used the method of blocking to force Yanqing to follow his route, and I am Yu Shu's method, go with the flow, so Yanqing is willing to cooperate with me, and I also arranged for him to go to the Northwest Army." β
Li Daqi whispered: "Taifu's love for dogs, Daqi is really difficult to repay!" β
Liang Shicheng shook his head, "You are not right to say this, the world is bustling, all for profit, the world is bustling, all for profit, Li Dongzhu is a businessman, he should understand it more deeply." β
Li Daqi didn't say anything, but he kind of understood what Liang Shicheng meant.
Liang Shicheng smiled and continued: "Even the high-ranking officials and ministers catch their sons-in-law, but also for the benefit of the family in the future, I Liang Shicheng only hate not having a daughter, otherwise I will definitely catch Yanqing as a son-in-law, I help Yanqing, in fact, it is also an investment, just like Li Dongzhu invests in the store in the end to earn more benefits, I invest in Yanqing, and I also hope to get his return in the future." β
"The grace of a drop of water, when the spring reciprocates, Yanqing has been a person of love and righteousness since he was a child."
"Yes! I can also see that in order to live up to the beauty, he would rather offend the Son of Heaven, which is indeed very affectionate and righteous, so I helped him, otherwise how could he be safe and sound so far? β
Li Daqi's face changed, he knew what Liang Shicheng was talking about? No wonder Master Li's affairs were turned upside down, but his son was safe and sound, it turned out that Liang Shicheng held it up for him, Li Daqi didn't know whether to be grateful or sigh, in this way, his son's handle was firmly grasped by Liang Shicheng, I am afraid this is the real reason why Liang Shicheng is willing to invest in his son.
Liang Shicheng saw that Li Daqi's face was wrong, and said with a faint smile: "Actually, I am already very tolerant of Yanqing, he is still surnamed Li, I am not like others, I must take possession of what I like before I can rest assured, Yang Jian has thirteen Taibao, all surnamed Yang, but as soon as Yang Jian died, the tree immediately fell and scattered, and there was not even a spiritual guardian, so what is the point of being surnamed Yang?" Li Dongzhu, don't you say? β
Liang Shicheng pulled and beat again, and Li Daqi was helpless, so he had to smile bitterly and said: "It's still Taifu who can see it thoroughly!" β
At this time, Li Daqi remembered an important matter, and hurriedly said: "The messenger told me that Yanqing was patrolling the border, and was surrounded by two hundred Western Xia cavalry, and almost died, Taifu, look at this ......."
"And this kind of thing?"
Liang Shicheng frowned, and said to Li Daqi: "I will investigate this matter well, Li Dongzhu, please rest assured, our starting point in Yanqing is the same, you are a father, I don't want my son to have an accident, I am an investor, I don't want the investment to go down the drain, I won't let this kind of thing happen again." β
Li Daqi got up and said, "Then I implore Master Liang to bother more, and Daqi will leave first!" β
"Huh! You are welcome. β
Liang Shicheng personally sent him to the front of the house, and took out a gold medal and handed it to Li Daqi, "This is my token, who dares to trouble Li Dongzhu or Baoyanzhai in the future, you show them the gold medal, I see who dares to touch my friend Liang Shicheng." β
Li Daqi was very moved in his heart, although he knew that Liang Shicheng was trying to entrap his son, but this condescending attitude was admirable, he took the gold medal, and said very sincerely: "Taifu is very loving, and Daqi is grateful."
Li Daqi gave another deep salute, said goodbye and left, Liang Shicheng kept smiling and watching him walk away, and beckoned to him again, and then took Li Yanqing's letter and walked quickly to the study.
Several guards in front of the mansion were so shocked that they looked at each other, Taifu actually sent Li Daqi out in person, this is the treatment that only Cai Xiangguo and Taiwei Tong have! He actually gave the gold medal token, this seems to be the first time, the first guard touched a gold ingot in his arms, and he suddenly felt that this gold ingot was a little hot.
