Chapter 38: Boys, Maniacs, Girls, and Old Men

In the following days, Lu Ye did not do anything earth-shattering. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info only when I was running in the morning, I saw You Heng on the Qingni River embankment, and the two talked about a game.

In fact, Lu Ye's chess skills are not higher than You Heng, but in the past few days, Lu Ye has been able to make You Heng fail repeatedly. In fact, there is nothing too much else, it is nothing more than relying on the chess games I saw when I first learned Go. Back then, Lu Ye played for a long time in the Children's Palace just playing music in order to play Go.

At this time, I played chess with You Heng, and sometimes although I couldn't do it, I was still able to turn the tide in the end, relying on the experience accumulated in playing music back then. From the beginning, the middle game, and the official, Lu Ye has always been a sword.

Winning half a eye is a common thing, but You Heng repeatedly shouted: "Zihang, what you won is just luck." ”

Lu Ye just smiled and didn't say much.

Lu Ye naturally enjoys it, but You Heng does not admit defeat every time, but every morning, Lu Ye only plays two chess games with You Heng. The so-called hunger marketing is probably the same.

You Heng is naturally very dissatisfied: "Zihang, you are not atmospheric at all, we are waiting for scholars, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, these things are all things to cultivate sentiment, aren't you hanging people's appetite?" ”

Lu Ye smiled: "Although the chess game is elegant, but indulging in it and not seeing everything is a good thing, right?" ”

"Eh, eh...... Don't go, let's take the next handful! I'm sure I'll be able to win you! ”

"No, I should go back to eating!"

"You ......."

Lu Ye didn't drag the mud and water at all, stood up directly, and left the Qingni embankment.

You Heng behind him looked at Lu Ye's departing back, and suddenly remembered something, and roared loudly: "Zihang...... After a while, there will be a Chongyang Cultural Meeting, will you participate? ”

Lu Ye's figure had already moved away, and he didn't know if he had heard this.

You Heng himself sat down again, and studied the chessboard in front of him again.

"How did you lose just now......."

"Get down here, block my eyes."

"One more trick ......."

"Slay my big dragon......, alas...... This guy is really clever ....... ”

You Hengsu is proud of his chess skills, and he should be regarded as one of the few people in this Xu Capital, but he didn't expect that in the hands of Lu Ye, he was repeatedly defeated. Unprecedentedly, You Heng suddenly felt a little frustrated.

This young man will definitely become an atmosphere in the future.

is such a confident person who can beat himself, if he doesn't succeed in the future, then he will have it?

*****************

When Lu Ye left from the Qingni River embankment and returned to the Yulong Tower, Minister Lu immediately greeted him with a worried face. said to Lu Ye: "Young master...... I'm afraid it's a bit of a hassle this time. ”

Lu Ye took a bite of the bread in his hand and said vaguely, "Huh? What's the trouble? ”

These few times, Lu Ye finally didn't forget the breakfast brought in the Yulong Tower, and finally returned to the Yulong Tower to finish the morning food.

Minister Lu's face was a little worried: "I heard from them...... It seems to be a restaurant in Dongcheng, and now there are a few storytellers telling stories in the lobby every day. They said they were worried that their business would be snatched away. ”

Lu Ye nodded calmly while eating: "These things, don't worry about us." ”

As for the storyteller who appeared in Dongcheng, such a thing had actually been considered by Lu Ye for a long time. Now that the business of Yulonglou is so hot, it is almost impossible if the restaurant on the Dongcheng side still has no reaction.

In the entire Xudu City, these three restaurants are the best three. The guests who can consume in it, there are so many people in the entire Xudu City, and now the business of Yulonglou is growing every day, and the guests are naturally all snatched from those two sides. There was some reaction on both sides, which was to be expected.

What's more, these things are not something that Lu Ye should worry about at all, but Ji Ke's cousin, the man in Tsing Yi who he saw in the Yulong Tower that day, should deal with.

For these, Lu Ye was not too worried.

Now Lu Ye is more concerned about the papermaking workshop prepared by Cao Zhen, and now I don't know how it happened, Lu Ye has stayed in the Yulong Tower these days, and I haven't seen Cao Zhen send someone here to deliver information, which makes Lu Ye's own heart a little up, isn't there something unexpected in this matter?

Minister Lu muttered again: "There is more...... Recently, some people came to our building, copied the bamboo slips after listening to the story, and took them to other teahouses and taverns to talk about it. ”

Speaking of this, Minister Lu was a little angry: "This is obviously what you wrote, young master!" How can they do this! ”

Lu Ye took another bite of the dough cake, still very calm. Such a thing is naturally in Lu Ye's consideration. People naturally follow the trend of what they like, very high. Moreover, during the Jian'an period, the protection of intellectual property rights was not strong.

What's more, Lu Ye did not write his name on the book Romance of the Gods, and the publicity was also taken out under the name Xu Zhonglin, and the old shopkeeper also asked Lu Ye, and Lu Ye smiled and said nothing.

For the old shopkeeper Zuo Liang, it doesn't matter who the author of this book is, the important thing is that this book can indeed bring a lot of benefits to Yulong Tower. They also have to rely on Lu Ye to write the follow-up chapters back, and naturally they will not be stupid enough to leak this matter by themselves.

"You just let them go, your young master's skills are more than that. It's just a novel. As Lu Ye himself said, Lu Ye didn't feel the need to deal with the fact that someone became famous through the Romance of the Gods. Anyway, I don't plan to take advantage of the limelight of this book to become famous, not to mention, it is not certain whether this name is a good name or a bad name.

Those Confucianism and wealthy families still have two opinions on what kind of thing this book has been passed down by word of mouth among the people of Xiariba.

Lu Ye didn't dare to take this risk. Besides, although Lu Ye is not a serious person, he still can't do the kind of thing that steals other people's things as his own. Since Xu Zhonglin wrote it in the previous life, then this life, of course, was also written by Xu Zhonglin.

"The old shopkeeper is not in a hurry, what are we anxious about." Lu Ye finished the last bit of bread in his hand, drank another sip of water, and then slowly walked towards the backyard. Leaving Minister Lu alone to stand in place.

"What did the young master say...... It seems to make some sense...... Minister Lu listened to Lu Ye's words and nodded thoughtfully. That's right, the old shopkeeper is not in a hurry, why am I in a hurry?

Fish Dragon Lane, Qi Family, Backyard.

Since the old gang leader Qi Ru handed over most of the things in the gang to his granddaughter, he made tea and practiced calligraphy at home every day.

But today, apparently, something big is happening.

In the backyard of the Qi family, the maids in the family had already been dismissed, leaving only Qi Yifan and Qi Ru, who were sitting in the pavilion at this time, discussing something.

"I don't know what you think, grandpa?"

"More than 20 lives are gone, we can't do nothing, right? A few days ago, I also sent someone to investigate, and found out that it was the dart of the Donghe gang. ”

But the rest of the evidence ...... It was the main ...... of the lobby that pointed to it. ”

……

Three days ago, Qi Yifan learned outside the Yulong Building that his dart game had been robbed. For three days, the matter was thoroughly investigated, but the final result surprised Qi Yifan himself.

A trip to the dart, plus the coachman and groom dartman, a total of more than 30 people, and only a few escaped back in the end. And the things in it are even more confusing, so the evidence points to one common point, that is, the lobby master of his own house.

The head of the dart that time was Song Laosan under him. Except for Song Laosan's accident, the rest of the three or four people came back alive, all of whom were those cronies under the hall master.

And in addition, the shadow of the East River Gang can be seen faintly.

Without him, there was a thief in his own gang.

Otherwise, there would be no such thing at all, and the route of the dart is very hidden, except for a few people, even those dart players don't know where to go at the next moment.

The degree of secrecy is so high, but in the end, he was still robbed, from the time he got the news, Qi Yifan began to suspect that there was a ghost in the gang.

The last temptation, sure enough. It's just that I can't know who this ghost is.

Qi Ru, who was not far in front of Qi Yifan, was very calm at this time, and his expression remained unchanged until Qi Yifan quieted down, and then he slowly spoke.

"Agui came to me yesterday." The old man took a sip of tea and said.

"How dare he come to you?"

"He said he didn't do it."

There was another long silence.

The old man picked up the teacup and said, "In the case that the matter has not been clarified, I suggest that you don't make up your mind so early." Of course I know who Song Laosan is, but I believe you should also know who Agui is. You said he wanted your position as the leader, and I believe it. But you say that he colluded with the East River Gang, of course I won't believe it. ”

"I believe him, since he said no, then he must not know about it."

"Huh?" Qi Yifan Bingxue is smart, and she is angry in her heart, but it will not affect her own judgment because of this.

"What kind of person Agui is, I know myself quite clearly. Although he is now competing with you for the position of the gang leader, he is put in the position of the hall master, and there are many things that he cannot do without wanting to. The people below did all kinds of dirty things to hide from him, and he couldn't know all of them. ”

"Then grandpa means ......."

"Since he says no, he doesn't. Since you haven't found out about this matter, then don't be self-righteous. It's naturally good to be able to find out, if it can't be found out clearly and there is no way, then it is naturally Song Laosan's sin of fornicating with the Donghe Gang and going to get three knives and six holes by himself, and life and death are up to heaven. As for the aftermath of the more than 20 brothers, don't interfere, just leave it to Agui to deal with. He'll get it. ”

Qi Yifan was silent for a moment, and finally nodded: "Okay, then do what Grandpa said." ”

At this time, the middle-aged housekeeper beside Qi Ru walked in from the other side of the courtyard and reported: "Miss, Miss Ke is here, saying that she is looking for you to have something." ”

Qi Yifan nodded, indicating that he understood.

Qi Ru on the side waved his hand and said, "Go, go, Ke'er is also a guy who has nothing to do and goes to the Three Treasures Palace, presumably there should be something important to come over this time." ”

Qi Yifan nodded and said to Qi Ru: "Then the grandson retired first." ”

Leaving the pavilion, Qi Yifan secretly said in his heart: "I must find out about this matter!" If it was really made by Uncle Gui, then I would never be able to forget it like that! ”

Qi Ru squinted his eyes slightly, looking at Qi Yifan's departing back, like an old fox who had read all the things in the world. The sky was dark, and Qi Ru sighed slightly: "Many things in this world may not be as ...... as we see with our eyes. ”

The autumn breeze is bleak, and the leaves in the yard are falling.
