Chapter Ninety-Two: Lianfeng!
The house in the middle is just facing the courtyard gate, and Lu Chen saw the scene inside as soon as he opened the courtyard door. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 After seeing the scene in front of him, both Lu Chen and the man beside him were stunned.
I saw that the young man, who was about fourteen or fifteen years old, was holding a piece of red meat at the moment, tearing the meat very carefully little by little, and then handed it to an old woman in front of him to eat. This piece of red breast Lu Chen knew that it was taken away by the young man when he left before. Before, Lu Chen thought that this young man was going to eat another meal at night, but now it seems that ...........
Probably hearing a noise outside, the boy turned his head to look this way. When he saw that it was Lu Chen, his face changed, he looked at the old woman in front of him and then at Lu Chen, as if he had made a certain decision. The young man got up and said a few words to the old woman, then walked towards Lu Chen's side and said, "You can actually find here?" ”
Lu Chen smiled and said, "Boy, first of all, why do you come to me every day to steal food?" ”
The young man looked at the old woman in the room, and then asked in a low voice, "I said, can you let me go?" ”
"You kid steal something?" Hearing the young man's words, the man who followed Lu Chen's side said viciously.
"No, I really can't leave here, otherwise you will wait for me for a few years, and I will return the money to you in a few years!" The young man said with some anxiety on his face. Lu Chen could see that the young man really couldn't leave, and it could be seen from the young man's expression that he was telling the truth.
Lu Chen glanced at the old woman in the house and asked, "Is it because of the old woman in the house?" Who is she? ”
Speaking of this old woman, the young man who had been expressionless all along, had a trace of sadness on his face. He said in a heavy tone, "She is my grandmother, and now it is very inconvenient to move because of illness, so I can only serve the life of his old man."
Hearing this, Lu Chen raised his eyebrows and asked, "What about your parents?" ”
"I heard from my grandmother that not long after I was born, they met bandits on their way out on business, and all the people in their caravan were killed!"
Lu Chen could see that although there was a trace of sadness on the young man's face when he talked about this matter, it was far less intense than when he talked about his grandmother just now.
It seems that this child has only literal feelings for his parents, not at all as strong feelings for his grandmother. After all, he was born without parents, and he couldn't understand the meaning of the word "parents" at all.
Lu Chen was silent for a moment before asking again, "What's your name?" ”
"My name is Lian Feng, my grandmother gave me the name, and she said that I ran very fast when I was very young, and I ....... like the wind," the young man said very seriously, probably afraid that Lu Chen would embarrass him.
After listening to the young man's story, Lu Chen smiled slightly, and said in a gentle tone, "Lianfeng, are you willing to follow me?" ”
"Huh!? My lord, do you want me to follow you? Hearing Lu Chen's words, Lian Feng didn't react for a while, and asked in shock.
"Of course, would you like to?"
"Yes! But... My grandmother is sick and can't live on her own, can you wait a few years? Lian Feng just agreed, thinking of his grandmother, and suddenly showed a trace of embarrassment on his face, let him leave his grandmother alone, he would never be able to do it, but he was reluctant to refuse this rare opportunity.
Looking at Lian Feng's hesitant appearance, Lu Chen smiled and said, "It's rare that you have this filial piety, I can send someone to take care of your grandmother, you just need to follow me steadfastly!" “
"Really? Thank you, sir! When the young man heard Lu Chen's words, he almost couldn't believe it and glanced at Lu Chen again, and then thanked him excitedly.
"Feng'er, who are these people outside? Are you out there getting into trouble again? At that moment, an old voice came from inside the room.
Hearing this, I saw Lian Feng smile and said, "Grandmother, I didn't get into trouble this time, this adult wants me to go to him on an errand, and the adult will send someone to take care of you!" ”
When the old woman heard this, she glanced at Lu Chen and said, "My lord, may I ask what you want my family to do?" ”
Seeing the old woman's uneasy look, Lu Chen first took out his official seal and gave it to the old man, and after the 10,000 army returned, the envoy of Jiannan Jiedu sent someone to him and Li Xinran to send it back.
Seeing the official seal, the doubts on the old woman's face dissipated most of them, and she hurriedly said, "My lord, Xiaomin was offended a lot just now, please forgive me!" ”
Lu Chen hurriedly held up the old woman who wanted to salute, and said, "Old man, don't worry about Lian Feng, I took a fancy to his reflexes and his speed, this kind of person is a natural scout... Cough... Scout! ”
The man behind Lu Chen glanced at Lu Chen with some confusion, what is a scout?
The old woman was still uneasy and told Lian Feng for a while, and finally she said, "Feng'er, you have to follow this adult well, there are also people in our family who are big officials, hahaha~ cough.... cough~" In the end, the old woman actually laughed wildly. Lu Chen, who watched this time, was frightened for a while, this is not good, he can't breathe, but he really hangs up~
Lu Chen led Lian Feng directly back to his temporary residence. Subsequently, he asked his subordinates to take Lian Feng's grandmother to a small house around here, and regularly arranged for people to serve the old man's life. It is said to be a service, but in fact, it is only necessary to send the old man three meals a day. The old woman is still able to take care of herself for other basic needs. Otherwise, Lian Feng would not be so relieved to let others serve his grandmother.
After arranging everything here, Lu Chen sent a message to the Holy City, asking the two people who had run over from the Datang Express to take refuge and come back. Now that there is no Jiang family, Datang Express should be able to develop.
As for some of the Jiang family's industries, Lu Chen didn't plan to let them be abandoned like this, after all, there were still many monopoly industries in it, and as long as they opened, they would make money. Therefore, in the letter to the two people, Lu Chen specially asked them to bring more people over.
After waiting for more than a day, at noon on the second day, the two men came. And there were eight more people behind them. Lu Chen still knew these eight people, and it was Lu Chen who asked the old patriarch to be selected from the tribe and let them learn to do business with the two people of Datang Express. As soon as the two met, they told Lu Chen that they had trained more than a dozen people in the tribe, and when Lu Chen returned to Chang'an City, they could hand over these people to Song Cai, after all, Datang Express was very short of people.
Hearing this, Lu Chen nodded with satisfaction, these people are worthy of being people who follow Song Caigan, and they have a far-sighted vision in the business industry.
Seeing them coming, Lu Chen didn't talk nonsense, and immediately asked them to reopen Datang Express. At the same time, Lu Chen also sent a few people to operate some shops in the monopoly industry in Minzhou City.
After all, these monopoly industries are not just as simple as making money, just like firewood, rice, oil and salt, once the supply is cut off, then the life of the entire Minzhou City will be chaotic.
A day later, Datang Express reopened, and this time Datang Express went through a very huge publicity, at least the people in the entire Minzhou City knew that there was this new thing.
Without the suppression of the Jiang family, the newly opened Datang Express suddenly became popular. As in the case of Chang'an City, seeing this thing is not only convenient but also so cheap, most of the people who come to see the excitement spend money to buy one. Even many wealthy people have also bought a copy of the previous issues.
