Chapter 115: Lin Chuang is interesting

Since the accident of the fake wine case in Xiantan Village, Lin Sanlang has also inquired and learned about Cui Geng many times.

He was born in the Lin family, a wealthy family in Quanzhou Prefecture, and although he is not the heir of the Lin family, he is well-informed and has a good vision.

Moreover, Lin Sanlang also has a brother-in-law who joined the army, and the secrets of the officialdom in Quanzhou are still heard from time to time.

Once he learned and inquired, he found that this Cui Erlang was amazing!

Cui Erlang was originally just a loser, and in order to pursue the sword dance family's grandson and young mother, he caused a lot of trouble to the family business. The dilapidated house was even rained overnight, and Sanniang colluded with the thieves to take all the remaining ancestral property of the family for himself.

It is said that when ordinary people encounter this kind of thing, it will be difficult to get ahead, right?

But this Cui Erlang is different, in just a few months, he made Mulan Spring Wine and revived the family business. Not only that, but he also somehow opened up the door of the county Cheng Dong Yan in Chang'an, and made Mulan Spring Wine a royal tribute wine. I didn't have a lot of Tailai, and I actually became the county lieutenant of Qingyuan County from Shang Jinshi.

And that's not all!

Immediately afterwards, Qingyuan County and Putian County were merged into Wurong County, and Cui Geng didn't know what kind of shit luck he had, he jumped several levels in a row, and became the governor of Zhichong Prefecture from the seventh grade, which is almost comparable to his brother-in-law.

In a short period of time, the two changed positions, which is simply a rising star in Quanzhou officialdom!

"A situation like Cui Erlang is either a means of having people, or a lot of luck, or more likely, it's a combination of both. Such a character can only be a friend, not an enemy! ”

The language of his father, the head of the Lin family in Quanzhou, was still in his ears, and when he recognized Cui Genglai at first glance, Lin Chuang was really a little flustered and short of breath.

Of course, there is no hatred. After all, it was he who took the initiative to provoke Cui Geng, not Cui Geng who was looking for trouble with him. Although he suffered a little in the end, it was also because of various mistakes, which had nothing to do with Cui Geng.

Lin Chuang laughed dryly, clenched his fists and arched his hands: "It turned out to be Cui Changshi in person." Belch...... At the beginning, the matter in Xiantan Village was Lin someone's fault, and he was offended and looked at Haihan. It's better for me to be the host tonight, set up a table in Wanghai Tower, and officially compensate Cui Changshi. ”

Time has passed, and Cui Geng's original opinion on Lin Sanlang has long been gone. Now seeing that Lin Chuang, the arrogant rich second generation, is so knowledgeable and interesting, it is also unexpected, and the last bit of mustard in his heart has completely dissipated.

He waved his hand generously and said, "No need. Isn't it worth paying for such a thing? Didn't you scold me Cui Erlang's small belly chicken intestines? Let's call this not to fight and not to know each other, the previous grievances will be written off, and no one is allowed to mention it again! ”

"Don't fight, don't know each other? You can say that again. Lin Sanlang said happily: "But you have to go to the dinner in Wanghailou tonight, and a certain family has to get close to Cui Changshi." ”

Speaking of this, Lin Sanlang seemed to remember something, turned his head and suddenly greeted Guo Ke: "Yes, since Guo Duwei is also here, we must show our face and go together." ”

As soon as these words came out, Guo Ke's face was suddenly full of black lines!

Lin Saburo's words are really a little inappropriate, what do you mean since you are also... Let's go along?

said as if Guo someone was his Cui Erlang's follower, eating a meal from you Lin Sanlang, making it look like he Guo Ke was giving away his head for nothing?

Guo Ke is a dignified six-grade commander of the folding, okay?

You are a nine-grade Wenlin Lang soldier Cao official, you are a yarn!

How dare you treat Captain Pontus as an additive?

Besides, Ben Du Wei is in front of the two of you, a Du Du Mansion has a long history from the seventh grade, and a Du Wei Mansion is a soldier of the ninth grade, you two talked endlessly, and directly put Ben Du Wei aside?

However, Guo Ke was not mad about this, he could see that this Lin Saburo really wanted to be comprehensive, but he was really immature, so he didn't choose what to say, not deliberately targeting himself.

In addition, the Lin family is the head snake of Quanzhou. The relationship between Cui Geng and Lin Chuang is good, and it will be of great benefit to the garrison of Quanzhou Port in the next few months. At this time, there are some small mistakes.

Immediately, Guo Ke shook his head slightly, and politely refused: "Captain Bendu led the army to Quanzhou Port at the beginning, and it must be very messy, so I won't go tonight, you two eat and drink well." ”

After a pause, he said: "Lin Bingcao has lived in Quanzhou for a long time and is familiar with the people's feelings, and in the next three months, I hope you can help Cui Changshi more." Cui Changshi leads the internal affairs and political affairs of the military government, and Captain Bendu has always been very handy, and Lin Bingcao will have to obey Cui Changshi's decrees more in the future. ”

Cui Geng secretly admired when he heard it, Guo Ke, the second generation of iron-faced officials, is really quite exquisite, this is righteous!

In a few words, he easily set the tone of the future military government team, which was to tell Lin Sanlang that his long history was not only the second-in-command of the Zhichong Governor's Mansion, but also his confidant Guo Ke. indirectly told Lin Sanlang that he must be soberly aware of his position, in addition to being Cui Geng's subordinate, he is still an "outsider" in the eyes of Guo Ke, and there is a difference between internal and external intimacy.

Pay attention to people!

Cui Geng glanced at Guo Ke gratefully, bowed his head slightly to show his respect, and obviously wanted to give thirty-two likes to Lord Duwei!

However, Lin Chuang didn't have an overreaction when he heard this, after all, Cui Geng was indeed several levels higher than himself, and Lord Duwei's request was also the proper meaning of the question.

Seeing that he bowed slightly, he said, "The lower official respectfully obeys the teachings of Guo Duwei!" ”

Subsequently, Lin Saburo led the way and introduced everyone to the Quanzhou Zhichong Governor's Mansion.

Originally, it was not only the office of the commander of Zhechong, but also the garrison of 800 soldiers, and its thousands of weather were not comparable to the Wurong Governor's Mansion changed from the Qingyuan County Ya.

Cui Geng walked all the way, his eyes showed envy, and he praised sincerely: "This place is much stronger than ours." When will the imperial court be invited to repair our Governor's Mansion in this way? ”

Guo Ke is from Chang'an, what scene have you never seen?

Snorted disapprovingly, and said, "It's just a little bigger, and there are more rooms, what's there to envy?" In addition, there is a place in this Quanzhou Governor's Mansion, which is not comparable to our Governor's Mansion. ”

"Where?" Cui Geng asked.

Guo Ke stretched out his hand and pointed to the height, and said, "Well, this is it." ”

Cui Geng looked up and saw that on a plaque with red letters on a black background, the three words "Crouching Tiger Hall" were shining.

Guo Ke continued: "Hmph, what Crouching Tiger Hall? When a tiger is sleeping, what is there to be majestic? This name is really bad, and it has destroyed its prestige! ”

Cui Geng: "......"

He couldn't help but secretly slander, big brother, people mean "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", okay? You are still the second generation of officials from Chang'an, and you are not much better than my semi-literate bale of straw!

However, as a subordinate, Guo Ke's attitude towards him has changed greatly recently, and he has a vague posture of relying on his confidants. He can't refute Guo Ke's meaning, right?

Immediately, Cui Gengtou nodded to his liking: "It's still Lord Duwei's keen eyes, and all the scum has nothing to hide!" The momentum of the three characters of this Crouching Tiger Hall is indeed a little weaker, and when he turned around, he asked someone to write a plaque of "Lecture on Martial Arts" and replace it. ”

Guo Ke said happily.

Lin Sanlang's face changed slightly, and he hesitated: "Lord Duwei, Cui Changshi, the owner of this Duwei Mansion, Zhang Duwei, is not easy to mess with, let's rashly change other people's plaques, is it appropriate?" Moreover, the Wurong Governor's Mansion was only temporarily garrisoned, and when Zhang Duwei came back in rotation, he found that this ......"

The implication is that you are guests who come for a short stay, where do you have the right to change the things of the host's house?

"Sneer......"

Guo Ke chuckled, shook his head and smiled: "What's inappropriate?" Talking about martial arts is much better than Crouching Tiger Hall, Zhang Duwei saw it, only thanks to the official's reasoning, how can he blame? He's going to be annoyed, so let him come to Captain Pontus! ”

After taking a turn around the Governor's Mansion, Guo Ke successively put forward a number of rectification suggestions.

If the flowers in this flower garden are too colorful, a place to govern the army is full of flowers, and the girls chirp, it is really inappropriate - shovel it!

For example, the training ground for the military training of this government is too simple, and some things must be added and repaired, where is this like a place where strong soldiers can be trained? - Xiuzhi!

There is also the barracks where the sergeants rest, the bedding or something, there is already a musty smell, no matter how bitter it is, the soldiers of the three armies can't be bitter, right? - Swap!

……

There are a lot of general opinions, and they are indeed considered from a military point of view, which is very reasonable. Cui Geng took notes, tore off the slip and handed it to Lin Sanlang, a soldier Cao, and asked him to arrange someone to do it another day.

Next, Guo Ke passed down the order to summon the brigade commander and all teams to come to discuss and arrange the next patrol of the 400 soldiers and maintain the security of Quanzhou Port.

Cui Geng and Lin Sanlang are not people who lead troops, so they don't need to participate in this kind of military meeting, and Guo Ke allows them to act cheaply.

As soon as Cui Geng walked away, Lin Chuang chased after him and shouted, "Is Cui Changshi going out of the house?" Why don't you take your little brother around? When we get tired, let's go to Wanghailou and have a good drink. ”

Cui Geng stopped, although he didn't know why he wanted Lin Sanlang to keep showing favor to himself today, but this face really couldn't be refuted, and he immediately nodded in agreement.

Lin Chuang beckoned several military officials to serve as servants, and the two of them left the Governor's Mansion and went straight to Quanzhou Port.

There are too many people who come to Quanzhou Port to do business, and more than a dozen professional markets have been formed here. For example, the silk market, the spice market, the livestock market, the rice market, the meat market, the fruit market, the cloth market, the book market, the ceramics market, the jewelry market, ...... Wait a minute.

Don't look at Cui Geng who has lived in Quanzhou for a while, but he patronizes the stars and misses Gongsun Youniang, he really hasn't been here yet, it is an eye-opener, and it is worth the trip.

When Lin Chuang led him to a flower market, Rao was Cui Geng's two lives, and he couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and said, "There is also this kind of market? ”

Lin Sanlang explained: "Quanzhou City is extremely rich, Quanzhou people love flowers and cherish flowers, those people know that there are treasured flowers in their hometown, they will bring them." Over time, a flower market was formed here. In addition, our Quanzhou people are ingenious, some workshops use silk cloth to make all kinds of fake flowers for sale here, many people come to buy, the market is more and more prosperous, now the whole market is a real flower and fake flowers, can make hundreds of thousands of business miles every year. ”

"I see, Cui was taught. Then does your Lin family also have a fake flower workshop? ”

Lin Chuang smiled reservedly and said, "There are two small workshops, and they don't make much money, so it's not worth mentioning, it's not worth mentioning." ”

And humble!

After being in contact with Lin Sanlang for a long time, Cui Geng's impression of him has really changed greatly. This guy is like a different person than he saw in the previous fake wine case.

Originally, I only thought that he was a son-in-law who relied on the power of his family, but now it seems that although he is still a little immature, his vision is much higher than that of ordinary gentlemen. Especially in business, he is far beyond the sons and daughters of ordinary families.

Not bad!

He nodded secretly, it seems that this person is still worth dating.

"General Shangguo, you are here! Remember me? Suddenly, a voice sounded behind Cui Geng.

He turned his head and saw that this was not the blonde man he had seen in the morning.

At this time, Lin Saburo also saw the Fan man, beckoned, and said, "Yalicob, is that you?" Come here! How? Do you know Choi Changshi? ”

Yalige bowed very standardly, and said, "See the third son!" You know this general, that's great, can you introduce us to him? ”

"Of course no problem!"

Lin Saburo called the blonde fan to his side and introduced Cui Geng for him.

It wasn't until now that Cui Geng knew that this Yaligo was actually the teacher of Lin Jiafanxue.

That's right, it's Mr. Teacher, but it's the feudal school that teaches!

Because there are many foreigners coming and going from Quanzhou Port, the language barrier requires a large number of "tongue people". The so-called Fan School is a school that specializes in cultivating "tongue people".

Cui Geng couldn't help but sigh: "It is rumored outside that your Lin family is just building ships, but I didn't expect there to be so many industries." Even Fan School is open, what other industry is there that your Lin family has not set foot in? ”

Lin Chuang said: "There are many misunderstandings in the world, our Lin family's main business is actually sea trade, and everyone related to sea trade is involved. It's just that in shipbuilding, our Lin family has invested more. As for Fanxue, it is not to earn that tuition, but that Quanzhou Port was too short of tongue people before, and in the long run, I am afraid that it will affect the development of the port. ”

This was an understatement, but Cui Geng heard the domineering in it.

How to develop Quanzhou Port is something that the imperial court should consider. For the sake of the development of the port, the Lin family invited Jianfan to study, and they simply regarded Quanzhou Port as their own home, how much power did they have in Quanzhou?

Then, persistently asking about the topic of their previous encounter, he wondered how Cui Geng knew about Alexandria.

This time, Cui Geng couldn't run away after pretending to be forced, so he had to deduce that he heard from a Fan man by chance, and now this person is gone.

Jarek could only take his leave in disappointment.

Lin Sanlang was also curious that Cui Geng knew about the country of the Tibetan people, but he didn't get to the bottom of it, he just secretly remembered it in his heart.

Seeing that it was getting late, Lin Sanlang took Cui Geng to a spacious street again,

There are not only tall and elegant restaurants dedicated to entertaining nobles, but also small restaurants with simple furnishings to receive ordinary people, the sound of the drinkers shouting five and six, the voices of the guys soliciting guests, and the singing of pipa singers...... Endlessly, the prosperity is extraordinary.

Wanghailou, the best restaurant in Quanzhou Port, is located on this street.

Cui and Lin Er were walking forward with Hu Cong, and suddenly a shouting and scolding came.

"Fuck you! Get out of here, old Hu man, get acquainted, I really thought your grandfather's knife was an ornament! ”

"Little lady, don't cry, this son is not a bad person. I'll go home with me later, when you're happy, haha! ”

"Wang Fa? Hehe, here, this son is the king! ”

……

Cui Geng heard the sound and looked for it, and saw several drunks coming out of a small wine shop opened by Hu Ren, staggering, babbling, and shouting loudly.

There was a high-nosed, deep-eyed, skinned orchid, with a knife around her neck, and was forced to follow, crying with pear blossoms and rain.

An old man with a beard, dressed like the shopkeeper of the orchid restaurant, kept begging.

Seeing that he was about to reach the street, the old man couldn't hold back any longer, walked a few steps, and came to the drunks, knelt on the ground with a "poof", and hugged the boy in the middle in a fancy costume.

He was not very skilled in Tang Yan, and cried: "Honorable Tang son, I can't help it!" My daughter, Talis, is my eyes. You took her away, how can I live? Do well, and give me back my eyes. Sebahei kowtows to you, I wish you a long life. ”

"Fuck you, what does it have to do with whether you die or not? This orchid is your eyes? Believe it or not, this official has gouged your pair of dog eyes now? ”

As he spoke, another drunk man jumped up beside the boy in brocade, flew up with a kick, and kicked the old man out of the old man for more than a foot.

After kicking people with flying feet and scolding the old man of Hu Ren, the drunk man walked up to Brother Gongzi with a flattering and cautious look on his face, bowed his waist to ninety degrees, and said with a raised face: "Wu Gongzi, let's go, if the old Hu dog dares to pester Gongzi again, the next official will break his dog's leg!" ”

When the drunk man turned his face, Cui Geng finally saw his face clearly, and couldn't help but be surprised!

I'm rubbing, isn't this guy supposed to be in Putian City, the county lieutenant in charge of public security in Wurong County-He Xu?

Damn, it's not good to let the county lieutenant of a county go to Quanzhou Port to fart? Looking at his face just now, he is full of dog-legged style, Cui Geng believes that if he is given a tail now, He Xu will be able to swing on the spot.

Isn't this He Xu? It's too low, could it be that I recognized the wrong person?

Cui Geng was suspicious in his heart, and was about to step forward to see what was going on, but Lin Saburo reached out and gently grabbed his wrist!

"Cui Changshi, don't be strong!"

Lin Chuang's face changed slightly, and he reminded in a low voice: "You calm down, you can't do anything to help you when you see injustice on the road today." That young boy, you can't afford to mess with it! ”

All right~

Obviously, Lin Saburo misunderstood Cui Geng's recognition of people as Cui Changshi was going to step forward - he roared when he saw the injustice!
