Wu Jin turned around, he was stunned, the person sitting behind him turned out to be his old friend in Weiyang County, Huang Shilang, the head of the Huang family, and there were no nephews next to him, as if he came alone.

"Yes..... The head of the Huang family. ”

Wu Jin had an indescribable feeling, he always felt very strange when he met Huang Shilang on this occasion, but seeing Huang Shilang's excited face, Wu Jin still had a little joy of meeting his old man in a foreign land.

"Master Huang, please come up and sit!"

Wu Jin warmly invited Huang Shilang to sit next to him, just as the seat next to him was vacant.

Huang Shilang sat up with a wine glass and a wine jug, perhaps because he had drunk a little wine, he seemed very excited, and had completely forgotten the fight he had had with Wu Jin.

People are so strange, sometimes nostalgia can erase the hatred between each other, Wu Jin was also infected by his enthusiasm, gradually, he also forgot about the past unhappiness with Huang Shilang, and talked to him about some changes in Weiyang County.

Huang Shilang had just arrived in the capital yesterday, and he had set off from Weiyang County ten days ago to attend the birthday banquet of the old man Qi Ruifu day and night.

For Huang Shilang, a local squire in Weiyang County, it is undoubtedly a great honor for him to be able to participate in Qi Ruifu's birthday banquet, and his excitement comes from this, and he wants to pass on his excitement to Wujin.

"Wu Jin, do you know about Huangfu Qu?" Huang Shilang patted Wu Jin's shoulder and smiled.

Wu Jin shook his head, and there was strong interest in his eyes, "How is he doing now?" ”

Huangfu Qu is his biggest enemy in Weiyang County, last time Zhang Rong said that he was in a bad situation, but how was it bad, Zhang Rong didn't say it, this matter has always hung his appetite.

"He has been dismissed, he was guilty of accepting bribes, and he did not return to Beijing, and now he is in charge of the Baifu Money Village in Donghai County, and has become a businessman, it is rare that the imperial court does not cover it, but he also took a big advantage, just dismissed, and was not arrested and put in prison, hey! It's good to have a knighthood! ”

Huang Shilang sighed while drinking a glass of wine, he seemed to think of something, put down the wine glass and asked Wu Jin, "Wu Jin, why are you in the capital?" What to do in the capital? It's a good mix! ”

Wu Jin didn't know how to answer him, he smiled and said, "I got some good gems in Weiyang County, I heard that the price in the capital is good, come to the capital to try your luck." ”

"The gem is good, it has risen sharply recently, Wu Jin, you are very discerning, how is it, how much have you earned?" Huang Shilang asked with a smile.

"Huh! 10,000 taels of silver were sold for 13,000 taels, and 3,000 taels were earned, a little money. ”

"I only earned three thousand taels, which is a bit of a loss."

Another wealthy businessman next to him also interjected with a smile and said to Wu Jin: "It must be that you sold early, if you sell it the day before the Mid-Autumn Festival, you can earn five thousand taels, which is still a little younger." ”

This wealthy businessman was quite interested in Wujin, and asked Huang Shilang: "Shiro, who is this young man?" ”

It seemed that Huang Shilang was very familiar with him, so he smiled and said: "This is our fellow villager in Weiyang County, the son of the Huangfu clan in the East China Sea, called Huangfu Wujin, the proprietor of a pawnshop." ”

Huang Shilang smiled and introduced this businessman to Wu Jin, "This is Li Jin, a famous salt and rice merchant in Jiangning Mansion, nicknamed 'Tongtian Li', in Jiangning Mansion, if you have any difficulties, just look for him, others have many ways to solve it for you." ”

This Tongtian Li smiled and arched his hand: "It's just a small businessman, how dare you let Shiro praise him so much, I don't know which pawnshop owner in Weiyang County is Brother Wujin?" Pak Tae-won or Wong Kum Kee? ”

Bai Taiyuan and Wang Kum Kee are the two most famous pawnshops in Weiyang County, since Wu Jin can come to Qi Ruifu's birthday banquet, then at least it should be a very famous pawnshop in Weiyang County, Tongtian Li's idea is not wrong, Wu Jin smiled, "No, a small pawnshop, ten thousand two silver capital." ”

At this time, there were a few sneers from the side, "A small pawnshop can also come to Qi Ruifu's birthday banquet, I really don't know how the Qi family sent the invitation?" ”

Wu Jin turned around, only to see several businessmen next to him looking at him contemptuously, with a look of disdain, and the contempt in his eyes could not be concealed.

Wu Jin smiled, he didn't care about these lonely and unheard merchants, he couldn't understand how these merchants were so ignorant, he was wearing a red background and white plum brocade robe of the Plum Blossom Guard, with a gold belt around his waist, such an obvious outfit, none of these merchants could recognize it.

If it is said that because there is no Meihuawei in Chuzhou, Huang Shilang and Li Jin, who sells salt and rice, do not understand, which is understandable, then these businessmen obviously have a Beijing accent, and they actually say that he runs a small pawnshop, which is really ignorant.

Wu Jin didn't say much, and smiled at Huang Shilang: "Master Huang, let's sit down and talk." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he only felt a slight twitch next to him, and when he turned around, he saw Qi Mao hurriedly walking in, followed by the old four Qi Huan, and the surrounding businessmen were saluting him.

Although Qi Mao turned his head one by one, his expression looked very anxious, he looked around, and saw Wu Jin at a glance, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he walked forward quickly.

He also wanted to talk to Wu Jin about the prince again, but he couldn't find him, his position in the No. 1 tent was empty, there was no sign of coming, he thought that Wu Jin had left, but his daughter Qi Fengwu reminded him that Wu Jin would use another invitation.

Li Mao immediately rushed to the last tent with his brother Qihuan, and sure enough, when he saw Wu Jin, he hurriedly stepped forward to salute Shen, and said with a slight smile: "Why is the dignified Duke of Liangguo here?" ”

As soon as he said this, it immediately caused a sensation all around, and everyone looked at Wujin incredulously, this young man turned out to be Liang Guogong, and the few businessmen who despised him just now were even more wide-eyed, and they couldn't say a word with their mouths open.

Huang Shilang stood up in shock, who is 'Liang Guogong'? Is there no Jin? How can it be? But he saw that Qi Mao was clearly saluting Wu Jin, and Qi Huan behind him also stepped forward to salute, and there was a burst of Venus in front of him, Wu Jin turned out to be the Duke of Liang Guo, what was going on?

Wu Jin smiled bitterly, he knew that Qi Mao was deliberately violating his own light, so that even if he found a reason, he would not be able to sit down here.

He had no choice but to shake his head and get up, then turned around and arched his hand to Huang Shilang, "Master Huang, we will have a chance to talk again in the future." ”

He walked quickly to the outside of the tent, and at this time, the eyes of the entire big tent were focused on him, and suddenly someone exclaimed, "Captain Plum Blossom Guard!" ”

Finally someone recognized the plum blossom guard uniform on Wu Jin's body, and suddenly there was a whisper, I heard that this young man was not only Liang Guogong, but also the plum blossom guard lieutenant, the eyes of the merchants changed, from surprise to fear, and the businessmen standing next to Wu Jin stepped back one after another, as if Wu Jin would burst out and kill people.

In the Daning Dynasty, a plum blossom guard and an embroidered cloth guard were both secret organizations that made people smell and change, and there were too many rumors about them, but they were all associated with brutality, blood, and terror.

Li Jin, a big merchant of salt and rice, heard that Wujin was the Duke of Liangguo, but a look of chagrin surged in his eyes, at this time Wujin had already come out of the account, and the businessmen around him were talking about Wujin, but Li Jin pulled Huang Shilang, sat down in his Wujin seat, and asked Huang Shilang in a low voice, "You just said that this Huangfu Wujin is the son of the Huangfu clan of the East China Sea?" ”

Li Jin's news is very extensive, he just heard today that there is a young royal family who was named the Duke of Liangguo and the deputy governor of the Chuzhou Water Army, but he didn't know the name, he didn't expect to see this person at night, he had no chance to go and make friends, he could only get more news from Huang Shilang.

Li Jin is a Jiangning Mansion specializing in salt and rice business, the business is very large, his means of transportation are all by boat, the Yangtze River, canals and sea he goes, he has been dealing with the Chuzhou Navy for many years, of course he knows the details of the Chuzhou Navy Army, the Chuzhou Navy Governor is Chu Wang Yaoling, only the nominal highest official, and the real person in charge is the Deputy Governor of the Navy, the current Deputy Governor of the Navy Yang Song is about to expire and step down.

One of the main purposes of Li Jin's entry into Beijing was to inquire about who the new deputy governor of the navy was, and he had already inquired, it was a young royal family, but he didn't expect that this person was in front of him just now, and he missed it.

This made Li Jin extremely annoyed, but fortunately he didn't offend the other party, and he already knew each other, and he had a chance to make further friends, and now he wanted to further inquire about Wujin's situation through Huang Shilang.

Huang Shilang seemed to be still in a dream, he hadn't reacted from the extreme shock, and he was like drinking a wine full of stamina, and he was more and more shocked in his heart, Wujin turned out to be the Duke of Liangguo, a royal family, and a plum blossom guard, and he didn't believe it when he was killed, but it seemed to be true, he began to feel extremely frightened in his heart, the Huang family had offended him several times, would he spare the Huang family?

It's over, his casino! It's over, his family! At this time, Huang Shilang was remorseful and hateful, and he wanted to die headlonging, so that Li Jin turned a deaf ear to him when he spoke.

Li Jin Fang Buddha knew his thoughts, and hurriedly persuaded him, "Shiro, this Wujin prince looks good to you, and he said goodbye to you when he left, you should be happy!" ”

Huang Shilang heard this, yes! Wu Jin was very good to himself just now, very affectionate, not like holding grudges, would he be a blessing in disguise?

Huang Shilang's heart ignited another glimmer of hope, and he hurriedly asked Li Jin, "Brother Li, do you think he is really good to me?" ”

Li Jin nodded, "I can see that he does have a kind of joy for you to meet an old man in a foreign country, can't fake it, Shiro, this is your chance." ”

Huang Shilang's heart was a little relieved, he remembered that he went to smash the field without Jin to run a game, the pawnshop opened, and he found someone to provoke, the more he thought about him, the more ashamed he became, and he couldn't help but slap himself on the head, "I really have no eyes and blind dog eyes." ”

He has decided that Wujin is a microserver who came to Donghai County to play, do gambling and the like, but he is just playing.

Li Jin asked him again, "Is he really a disciple of the East China Sea Huangfu clan?" ”

Huang Shilang also had no bottom in his heart, he shook his head, "How is it possible, I guess he is hanging under the East China Sea Huangfu's house, hiding people's eyes and ears, anyway, he is surnamed Huangfu." ”

"Is there a way for Shiro to see him again?"

At this time, several big businessmen from Jiangning Mansion also surrounded and asked Huang Shilang together, "This benevolent brother, can you help us introduce Liang Guogong?" ”

Not only Li Jin, but all the businessmen are concerned about the movements of the officialdom of Jiangning Mansion, and they all know a little news, Li Jin is silent, he holds up his wine glass and does not say a word, he has made up his mind, he has to be with this Huang Shilang these days, they have known each other for decades, although Li Jin has always looked down on him a little, but at this moment, his impression of Huang Shilang has changed.
