Li Tu was looking at Cui Guangzhi, and Cui Guangzhi also looked at Li Tu carefully and secretly judged himself. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info half loud, Li Tucai broke the silence, stood up and arched his hand and said: "Bai Ding Li Tu has seen Master Cui!" ”

Cui Guangzhi stroked his beard and said with a smile: "You're welcome, sit, sit!" ”

The servant of the Cui family, who had opened the door just now, walked out and served tea to the three of them.

Waiting for Li Tu to sit down, Cui Guangzhi said with a smile: "Li Tu, you were born with a tiger when you were a child, and I hugged you, do you remember?" ”

Li Tu touched his head and said, "I don't remember." ”

In order to hide his embarrassment, Li Tu turned around and took the Japanese knife from Xu San's hand, presented it to Cui Guangzhi with both hands, and said, "I went to sea with the ship and stayed in the Japanese country for a while. The products of the country are barren, but the specialty sword, I chose a top grade under it, and this time I gave it to Master Cui to show respect! ”

Cui Guangzhi did not refuse politely, and directly took the katana. With a force in his hand, he pulled out his katana and looked at it carefully. He swung the knife harder, bringing out a sound of breaking the air, and then said with a smile: "What a knife, much better than my scholar's sword." It is said that the sword is sharp, and it really lives up to its name! ”

According to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, Xiucai can wear a sword, and Cui Guangzhi really needs a good knife.

Seeing Cui He's father so bold, Li Tu was happy in his heart, and arched his hand and said: "The sword is a hero." Master Cui is so bold, it is worthy of this knife. ”

Seeing Li Tu stammering himself, Cui Guangzhi laughed, stroked his beard and said, "I heard that you went to sea this time and became the leader of the ship and made a lot of silver. ”

Li Tu replied indifferently: "I am now in charge of the ship's general shop, in charge of crew fighting and training. ”

Nodding, Cui Guangzhi said: "Although it is only a position on the ship, there are dozens of people on the ship, and since this general shop position is in charge of the overall situation, it is not low." You have only been on the ship for a year, and you are young, it is not easy to be able to hold the position of the chief shop! It must be earned by ability! ”

Li Tu hurriedly arched his hand and said: "The position on the ship is not worth mentioning Master Cui!" ”

Seeing Li Tu's modesty in his later life, Cui Guangzhi smiled and said: "It's good that young people have a fighting heart!" ”

After a pause, Cui Guangzhi said again: "Why haven't I heard that your ship is docking?" Didn't this ship always hide in Mae Wan before? ”

Although the Zaixing had been hidden in Meiwan before, the existence of the Zaixing was an open secret to the town of Qianting, which was close to the sea. Anyone who is a little well-informed knows when the Zaixing enters the bay and when it sets sail. Xiao Xiangui, the owner of the ship, had already bought the county order, and he was not afraid that the people by the sea would know.

But this year, Cui Guangzhi only saw Li Tu and others landing, but he didn't hear that the Zaixing entered the port, which is a little strange.

Seeing Cui Guangzhi's inquiry, Li Tu replied honestly: "The ship encountered a patrol boat from the Liuao Thousand Households Office and could not enter the bay. There are patrol boats from thousands of households outside the few harbors in Zhangpu County where boats can be parked, and now our boats can only hide in the open sea. ”

Hearing Li Tu's words, Cui Guangzhi was stunned for a moment, and said silently: "Six Ao Thousand Households? ”

Smiling, Cui Guangzhi said: "It turns out that you were blocked by the newly appointed Zhou Pingde!" ”

Li Tu arched his hand and asked, "Master Cui originally knew the new thousand households of the Liuao Institute?" ”

The Ming Dynasty was proud of the imperial examinations, and the power of civil officials became more and more powerful, and the status of military attachés was very low. By the end of the Ming Dynasty, there was even a situation where high-grade military attachés wanted to kneel down to low-grade civilian officials. Although Cui Guangzhi is only a showman, he is also a well-dressed person in the local area, and he has made friends with thousands of households in the health center, which is not a high climb.

Cui Guangzhi said eloquently: "My family and this Zhou Pingde are world friends, I not only know him, but I also invited him to my house a few days ago to eat wine!" Why, you are blocked overseas, and if you don't hurry up and send him the money, he will naturally not block you. ”

Cui Guangzhi is a cheerful person and said this matter very directly.

In the third year of the Apocalypse, the Ming Dynasty no longer had the original legal system. Whether it is in the court, between the military, or in the market, the strict punishment laws formulated by Ming Taizu have been beaten to the ground by the unspoken rule of money. The only difference is that some people try their best to cover up this unspoken rule, while some people put this unspoken rule naked on the surface.

Seeing Cui Guangzhi's frankness, Li Tu replied honestly: "There is no way, I am afraid that I will be taken down as a thief, so I dare not rush to the door to deliver silver!" ”

Cui Guangzhi looked at Li Tu and said with a smile: "This matter is easy to do, I will introduce it to you." With me as a surety, he will not take anyone, but will gladly receive your money. ”

Hearing this, Li Tu was very happy in his heart.

I didn't expect to visit my future father-in-law, but I was surprised by my visit. If you can buy thousands of households and let the Zaixing enter Hong Kong smoothly, it will also be a great achievement for Li Tu, and Xiao Xiangui will be rewarded. When Li Tu heard this, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly replied: "If Master Cui can introduce him, he will be grateful for it!" ”

That Cui Guangzhi is a direct character, and when he heard Li Tu say that he was thankful, his eyes lit up. He touched his beard and laughed heartily, Lang Lang said: "Then the day after tomorrow, when I go to the Zuixian Building in Zhangpu County, I will introduce you to meet you." ”

Li Tu hurriedly thanked him and agreed.

#####

After leaving Cui's house, Li Tu took Xu San back to the Zaixing and told Xiao Xiangui about Cui Guangzhi's introduction to the thousands of households in Liuao. Xiao Xiangui was overjoyed, and looked at Li Tu's eyes as if he saw a baby.

Xiao Xiangui was timid, afraid that he would be taken down by these thousands of households and blackmailed by him if he went ashore. He gave Li Tu two thousand taels of silver and asked Li Tu to finish the thousand households.

Li Tu led people to deposit the silver into the bank. On the appointed day, he took the silver ticket and went to the drunken immortal building for a banquet.

Zuixianlou is in the south of the county seat of Zhangpu County, Li Tu entered the county gate, went straight to the south, and not far saw a three-story wooden building, standing out in the surrounding single-story tile houses. The building has more than ten zhang long and wide, a one-meter-high stone foundation beyond the ground, and the roof has heavy eaves and arches, which is quite imposing, and it is the drunken immortal building that Li Tu is going to.

Li Tu walked up the steps, and Xiao Er came up to greet him. Li Tu reported Cui Guangzhi's name, and the little second took Li Tu to a private room on the top floor.

Li Tu pushed open the door and walked in, saw that Cui Guangzhi had arrived, and sat down. Li Tu and Cui Guangzhi saluted, and sat down opposite Cui Guangzhi.

Cui Guangzhi is a direct character, and when he came up, he asked, "Did you bring the silver?" ”

Li Tu nodded and replied, "Bring a silver ticket!" ”

Cui Guangzhi smiled: "How much did you bring?" ”

Li Tu replied: "One thousand taels! ”

Cui Guangzhi thought about it for a while, and did not say anything more about it, but turned the topic to other idle matters. The two chatted for a quarter of an hour, and then heard Xiao Er downstairs singing and singing: "Your guest has arrived!" ”
