Chapter 32: Gao Laogen's Thoughts
Seeing that it was not early, Gao Huaiyuan ordered Gao Laogen to prepare some wine and food, and invited these errands who came from afar to eat and drink, which can be regarded as fulfilling the friendship of the landlord.
After greeting each other, Gao Huaiyuan learned that just now he and Gao Laogen and his gang were fighting in the courtyard, and they were heard by the neighbors outside, and they actually ran to report to the official if they had something good, saying that there was a strong man who wanted to rob the Gao family's old house.
When the people in the county government heard about the accident in the Gao family's old house, they thought that Gao Jian was an official after all, and his status was relatively high, so they didn't dare to slack off, and immediately ordered Xing Zhutou to take a group of errand officers and rush to Gaojiazhuang to see what was going on.
Xing Zhutou arrived here, and after asking Gao Laogen, he knew that it was a misunderstanding, so he was relieved a lot, and he was also quite curious about this new arrival Gao Huaiyuan, seeing that although Gao Huaiyuan was not very old, he was born with a strong physique and talked extraordinarily, and he did not treat them as rough people at all, he was very polite, and he had a good impression of Gao Huaiyuan in his heart.
Originally, he didn't want to disturb the Gao family, but seeing that Gao Huaiyuan was very sincere, he really couldn't refuse, so he took a group of subordinates and stayed to eat and drink.
At the wine table, Gao Huaiyuan and Gao Laogen sat together, and Xue Tu didn't want to see these officials because of what he had done before, so he automatically hid in the backyard and went with Li Tong to arrange the residence of those boys.
"I didn't expect that today's misunderstanding caused you to run so far, Huaiyuan really didn't want to go, so I salute you with a cup! Huaiyuan is still young, can't drink more, don't be polite, you must eat and drink well! Gao Huaiyuan raised his glass to Xing Zhutou and others and said, he knew very well in his heart that no matter when this world was, it was inseparable from the thing of human affection, whether it was ancient times or later generations, it was necessary to communicate with the officials, although these errand servants did not have a high status in the official office, but they were the head snakes in Daye County, the county officials were not as good as the current management, and if they wanted to gain a foothold here in the future, they had to deal with them, and they would befriend them in the future. It's also convenient to ask them for help in the future, so I don't put any official young masters on the shelf at all, and I am very polite to a group of errands.
Xing Zhutou and the others hurriedly stood up, picked up their wine glasses and thanked them: "How dare you!" It is an inferior honor to be able to help the Gao family, and Gao Yanei is so polite, but it makes me embarrassed! When I saw Gao Yanei today, he was really a child of the official family, and his speech was different from ours, since Gao Yanei promoted us, then we are not welcome! Let's do it first! After speaking, a group of people took the wine bowl and drank it all.
"We people, we don't have much other skills, on the ground of Daye, we are just a little familiar, what is the use of the brothers in the future, although Gao Yanei commands! Under these people, I promise to help Gao Yanei! After putting down the wine bowl, Xing Zhutou wiped his mouth and said.
"Xing Zhutou is really refreshing! Gao is not very old, although he was born in a high family, but he likes to make friends with men like you, and he is also a newcomer to the next, and he has never been back to Daye here before, so he will have to bother you in the future, and everyone should stop calling me Gao Yanei, which seems to be a raw point! It's better to call me by my name! Hehe" Gao Huaiyuan was upset by their mouthful of Gao Yanei, no matter how you listen to this Yanei, it is not a good thing!
Gao Huaiyuan also took this opportunity to learn about the local situation in Daye, it turned out that Daye has long had a history of iron smelting and copper smelting, and after the Great Song Dynasty lost several important iron smelting in the north, the status here has also begun to become much more important, the output of copper and iron has been greatly improved compared with the Northern Song Dynasty, no wonder when you go all the way, you will see some wolf smoke billowing scenes in some places, it turns out that they are all furnaces!
Gao Huaiyuan couldn't help but feel moved in his heart, this Daye is a good place, can he consider developing in this area in the future? But he soon dispelled his unrealistic idea, with the little money he has in his hand now, it is almost the same as opening a tofu workshop, and it is still too early to do this, but you can pay attention to it first!
A drinking banquet made Xing Zhutou and his group quickly get acquainted with Gao Huaiyuan, and before it ended, a group of people began to call themselves brothers, as if they were a group of friends who had known each other for a long time, no wonder people said that wine is a good thing, which can bring people closer to each other, Gao Huaiyuan also drank very happily, after all, in his previous life, he was also a profession with these people, and he had a common language when he spoke.
And these officers also have a little admiration for Gao Huaiyuan, seeing that he is young, he actually knows a lot of scary things, so he no longer dares to treat him as a child, and Gao Huaiyuan talks about some things about solving cases, and he talks about it even more eloquently, it seems that he has a lot of experience, so that these officers who do this thing all day long feel refreshed when they hear it, and when they say goodbye and leave, they already treat Gao Huaiyuan as their own person!
The alcohol in the Song Dynasty was not high, Gao Huaiyuan and Huang Yan drank a lot before, but today they drank so much for the first time, only to find that their stupid boy body not only has a brute force, but also has the ability to get drunk or not, and after drinking for a long time, except for a little excitement, there is no hair.
Gao Laogen has been sitting under Xu Yi and drinking with them, he is already a little drunk at this time, but his heart is full of shock, after drinking a wine, he no longer dares to underestimate this silly boy of the legendary Gao family, judging from Gao Huaiyuan's conversation, where is there a little fool! is much more shrewd than a shrewd person, and the things he knows are unheard of even by a person who has lived for half his life, is it true that the rumors are all false?
Now Gao Laogen is in a very depressed mood, originally he made a good wishful thinking, after the third young master came, he was completely overturned, the original plan was to become the boss of the Gao family's old house, now Gao Huaiyuan came, his position is much more embarrassing, at the beginning, he was still thinking to himself, even if Gao Huaiyuan came to call the shots, but after all, he was still a milky young man, and he used to be a stupid boy, where might he know too many things, and when the time comes, he Gao Laogen will have the final say, This third young master is still at his mercy, and if he wants to continue to reap the benefits, isn't it still a matter of being caught?
What's more, there are only two adult servants who came with Gao Huaiyuan, Li Tong is a little babbling, he is not a calm guy, that Xue Yan knows at a glance that he is a rough man, and it is definitely not good to play with the account, as long as his status as the account keeper remains unchanged, the oil and water will naturally be his!
But after a drink, Gao Laogen was almost depressed to death, judging from Gao Huaiyuan's performance, all his thoughts were over, at this time he was indignant in his heart, he was also a relative of the Gao family, and he had done things for the Gao family for so many years, it was his turn to be the master of the old house, but why did the old housekeeper die, and send back such a shrewd stupid boy? Isn't this a clear distrust of him?
"Executive business! Are you already drunk by now? Gao Huaiyuan squinted at Gao Laogen's unhappy face, lowered his head and devolved as if he was thinking about something, and after thinking about it, he understood his mood at this moment, and also roughly understood what he was thinking about at this time, so he sneered and asked Gao Laogen.
Gao Laogen, who was full of slander, was shocked for a moment, and quickly replied, "Oh...... No...... The little one isn't drunk yet! ”
Gao Huaiyuan asked the two subordinates to remove the wine table, and after ordering them to retreat, let Gao Laogen sit down, and said to him very politely: "After I came over today, I can see that you are very unhappy!" ”
When Gao Laogen heard this, he quickly got up and bowed down and said, "Young Master, where did you start!" The young master can come to the old mansion to take care of the affairs here, how dare the little one be unhappy? The young master must be too hearty! When he replied to this, Gao Laogen felt a little like wine was pouring up, and the resentment in his heart became much stronger, and his tone of voice seemed a little stiff.
Gao Huaiyuan looked at his expression, more sure of what he was thinking, sneered in his heart, and re-evaluated this Gao Laogen, from the beginning of entering this old mansion, Gao Huaiyuan was very dissatisfied with many places, coupled with the current performance of Gao Laogen, he was completely sure that this Gao Laogen was a very selfish person, such a guy, in this old mansion for so many years, the Tiangao Emperor was far away from no one caring, he must be a person who is used to it, and he is still very strong for the right. Keeping such a person by his side is a big obstacle for him to control this place in the future, he doesn't want to have such a person around him, which will be a constraint for him to do many things in the future, what should he do?
Gao Huaiyuan looked at Gao Laogen with an angry face and thought to himself, and soon had an idea, so he said: "Since it's not, it's easy to do!" Executives must have been here for so many years, so they should be very familiar with the situation here! ”
As soon as he heard this, Gao Laogen began to feel a little proud again, and said in his heart, although you are a little thing who just came here, although you don't look stupid, but if you want to take over all the things in the old mansion, don't you still have to rely on me? I'm afraid of you birds! So he puffed up his chest and replied: "The young master asked so, the little one didn't dare to refuse, if you want to talk about the matter of this old mansion, no one here really knows better than me, as long as the little one is here, let the little one take care of all kinds of affairs for the young master, so that the young master doesn't have to bother about this!" ”
(Don't you have a red ticket in your hand?) Please! Help cast a card to help! It's really a bad feeling to be blown up in the chrysanthemum! Hehe! )
