Juxian Building, Lou Juxian, Juxian Immortal Building. Gather customers to stay, stay to gather customers, gather customers to stay customers.

In the Juxian Building in the east corner of the Drum Tower of Jiangning Mansion, a pretty artist played and sang Su Song, and there were occasional men and women who cast their eyes on the woman singing the song next to the wine table with only soft sounds.

Different from the fascination of others, Wu Renhe, who was benevolent, stilted Erlang's legs, humming drums softly, and his face was full of pride, but his eyes were staring at the entrance of Juxian Tower.

When he saw a person coming in, he hurriedly got up and said.

"Oh, the old shopkeeper Yan is really a golden body and jade body, so difficult to invite, my pot of wine is warm and warm, and if you don't drink alcohol, the smell will be all gone, this is the thirty-year-old Shaoxing Huang that I specially ordered the shopkeeper Chen to prepare."

Although there were thorns in his words, Yan Wenyuan sat down in a long shirt and said politely.

"How dare Boss Wu slack off on his invitation to drink? I happened to take over a business on the counter, and I didn't get out of it for a while, so please forgive me, brother. ”

Wu Renhe waved his hand upside down.

"No, no, no, in front of the old shopkeeper Yan, I dare to blame it, I just can't wait for a long time to be a little anxious. Come, drink, and ask for a few side dishes, not a table. ”

"That's good, that's good. These small dishes are so good, the color is fresh, and the gluttonous insects are hooked at a glance. Yes, especially this plate of braised pork, in this Jiangning Mansion, I am afraid that there is no braised pork that is better than the one cooked in Juxian Building. ”

While praising it, Yan Wenyuan was thinking about the intention of this Wu Renhe to invite himself.

"I know that the old shopkeeper Yan is hello, I specially instructed the shopkeeper Chen to personally take charge of this braised pork!"

As they spoke, the two had already sat down and drank their glasses, but their eyes were secretly looking at each other.

This shopping mall is like a battlefield, it is true, almost ten years small, the pawnshop in this Jiangning Mansion, how many are Ren and Dang and Wendang are fighting in the open and secret, although this is a big Jiangning Mansion, there are hundreds of pawnshops alone, but few can be compared with Renhe and Wendang.

Before the end of last year, Wu Renhe knew that Yan Wenyuan was out of sight for a while, and he had entered the trap of others, he was that happy! Le Shi didn't forget to spread the word in the industry, this article is when the old man Yan of the big boss is old when he is a real person, and his eyesight is gone.

Although this is not a big deal, but what is important in this pawnshop is a vision, and that incident is exactly what Yan Wenyuan was jealous of, so Wu Renhe passed it on, and later at the guild the next year, he was ridiculed again, and the two became opponents.

A man in a silk shirt who looked like a boy entered the hotel, found a quiet corner and sat down, and ordered the tavern guys. A plate of peanuts and beans, a jug of wine. The man stretched out his fingers and pinched the wine cup, took a small sip and drank it slowly, looking very elegant, obviously born in a large family.

Yan Wenyuan could see this person's every move, although this person was wearing a hat on his head, he could also see with his eyesight that the braid was continued along the back of his head.

The way of the world...... It's a complete mess! It's all gone!

After being deceived by that cripple a few years ago, Yan Wenyuan had no good impression of these fake foreign devils and people who cut off their braids, almost to the point of being annoyed by seeing them.

Ay!

Thinking that he was shrewd, he was so confused that he fell to the point of making people shudder for a while, Yan Wenyuan was that annoying in his heart! The lame man was as he had guessed, and he disappeared after he got it. sighed in my heart, and I didn't have the meaning of playing haha with the person in front of me.

"Boss Wu, I'm afraid you didn't invite me here to chat! If you have anything to say, please tell us in person! ”

Wu Renhe smiled.

"Old Yan's shopkeeper is shrewd, and he can't hide anything from you. So I'll just say that? ”

"Say, no one is gagging you."

Wu Renhe smiled awkwardly, he had offended this old Yan shopkeeper at the end of the year.

"Old Yan shopkeeper, Ren Zhi was confused and offended Yan Lao Shopkeeper for a while, please also ask you to have a lot, don't take it to heart, this, Ren Zhi will apologize to you!"

After speaking, Wu Renhe made a gift together.

"Boss Wu, what are you doing!"

His apology and confession made Yan Wenyuan surprised, how did Wu Renhe change his surname today!

"You and I are just a momentary battle of will in the mall, and there is nothing to talk about whether to apologize or not!"

Yan Wenyuan said as he looked at Wu Renhe, who was sitting down, what play is this person singing today? This will Wu Renhe just sighed.

"Alas, I didn't listen to you last time, I raised the price with you last year to harvest raw silk, and I haven't slowed down until now, and I don't dare to do anything. No, there are two spare money in your hands that are clenched tightly, so you don't dare to act rashly, I heard that you are going to set up a money bank, and you are not very good at money, and you are pulling shares everywhere. I also thought, as you always said, what is the interest of our own family fighting, it is not that foreigners have fallen cheap! Therefore, I thought it would be better to invest the money in you to invest in individual stocks, and I don't know if the old shopkeeper Yan is willing to appreciate his face. ”

Wu Renhe said the truth, although he faintly wanted to compete with him Yan Wenyuan in pawnshops and other businesses, but it was not a matter to fight like this, after all, Yan Wenyuan had been in the pawnshop shop in Jinling City for more than 30 years, and had worked hard in the raw silk shop for more than 20 years.

Especially this Yan Wenyuan is now thinking about opening a money bank, which makes him feel afraid that if he really fights and fights like this, he will have to fall sooner or later, and instead of fighting like this, it is different from forming a rope, not to mention, he still has other plans in his heart.

Is he just looking like this just to take a stake in his own bank? With this Wu Renhe's financial resources, if it is said that last year's shengsi hurt his vitality, Yan Wenyuan didn't believe it, even if he didn't hurt his vitality because of that, could it be that he really invested in Qianzhuang?

Although there was some hesitation in his heart, Yan Wenyuan, who was looking at Wu Renhe, said lightly.

"Okay, there are rich people who make money, and if you join the shares, you are promoting me, can you not welcome it?"

"Then we're going to make it happening today?"

Wu Renhe, who was stunned, still couldn't believe it, obviously he didn't expect it to be so easy, originally he thought that this Yan Wenyuan would definitely make it difficult.

"Cheng Gong, I'm going to get in!"

Wu Renhe stretched out two fingers in disbelief.

Looking at the two fingers, Yan Wenyuan nodded his head and took a sip of rice wine.

"It's settled, let's drink."

Raising a cup, Yan Wenyuan said with a smile, although he hesitated in his heart, he had some doubts about Wu Renhe's changes, but he didn't have any fear of Wu Renhe in front of him, and it was impossible for him to turn over his palm even if he was shrewd, although now in the pawnshop in Jinling City, he knew that his eyesight was not good, but he didn't feel that his brain was confused, he Wu Renhe was a shareholder, and he didn't want to get cheap, if he really played, he was afraid that not only his ginseng was his flesh, but also his meat. Yan Wenyuan believed that he had the ability to dig out a few pieces.

Then the two chatted a few words and dispersed. On the way to Chao Wendang, Yan Wenyuan, who was in a good mood and had a smug face, even hummed a small song, the anger that had been blocked in his heart in the past few months, but with Wu Renhe's soft mood, he had never been so proud as he is now, more precisely, it should be - comfortable!

Some Yan Wenyuan, who was walking flutteringly on the side of the road, humming a minor tune as he walked, looked up at the road, with a sense of pride in his heart, and turned his eyes back, but saw a carriage, his originally proud face changed suddenly, and he was gone, and he was gone, and some were just surprised, and even a little angry.

“……”

He looked in amazement at the carriage in the distance that was coming towards him, there were two people sitting in the Western-style open-top carriage, and there were two people standing behind the carriage, but he only saw the man sitting in the carriage and talking to the people beside him from time to time.

It's him!

It's that cripple!

Although he was wearing a dress and a top hat on his head, even if he turned to ashes, Yan Wenyuan would not forget the appearance of that person, the person who made him a shame in his life, how could he forget.

"Guozheng, this kid!"

Sitting in the carriage and feeling the cool breeze, Chen Moran secretly begged in his heart, when he arrived in Nanjing last night and stayed in the hotel, he ordered the kid to go to the carriage shop to hire a carriage, but he never thought that when he got out of the hotel today, he only saw this open-top Western-style carriage, which occasionally made people stare at him along the way, and he only had a feeling in his heart that he seemed to be watched by a monkey.

“…… If you can get the approval of Lord Liu this time, then not only will our industrial company have a backer in the future, but you can even find a career for you! ”

"Origin?"

Chen Moran was stunned for a moment, obviously he didn't expect this, although the purpose of coming to Nanjing this time was to seek the support of the governor of Liangjiang, with the support of the government, everything would be easier. But he never thought about finding a career for himself.

At a glance, Sun Mingjiu looked serious again.

"Yes! This is the Great Qing Kingdom, not Ameria, why can he Sheng Xuanhuai be the first merchant in the Great Qing Kingdom, in addition to Lord Li helping behind, there is also the red top on his head, Sheng Xuanhuai, Hu Xueyan, they don't all have red heads on their heads! ”

Seeing that he didn't take it to heart, he still said with concern.

"That day, in the Sheng Mansion, if it weren't for the fact that the Sheng people didn't say anything, just if you didn't kneel when you saw the officials, the Sheng people would be enough to send you to the yamen, and if you have a background, you can at least be exempted from the courtesy, but then, my father once said that you are a person with hard bones and don't want to kneel, but if you really meet a comparator, I am afraid that you will suffer at a loss!"

Sun Mingjiu's words set off waves in Chen Moran's heart, he said this for his own good, but ...... Why I haven't continued to braid, one is disgusted with the pig's tail, and the other is for this short hair, which seems to be a proof that I am just a spectator of this era.

It is precisely because he is a spectator that he can calmly look at many things like looking at history, if he really leaves that braid, Chen Moran, who has no reason, is suddenly afraid, he seems to see that one day, he will become as radical as that Niu Yongjian, when he was young, he was like them, but after being sharpened for nearly ten years, he has long been numb to everything.

But the braid that remains in the back of the head may even become a thorn in the heart at that time, reminding myself from time to time, reminding myself of the shame here, everything I am bearing here, and I am afraid that I want to be numb, and it will be difficult to do it.

"However, one of your legs has already been broken, and then the other leg will be broken again! ……”

Sighing in his heart, Chen Moran couldn't help but touch the back of his head, could it be that he really wanted to keep a pig's tail? Now there are many people who cut off the pig's tail, but if they really wear official clothes, I am afraid that they will have to follow the pig's tail even if they are unwilling.

Is it to compromise in the face of reality, or ...... "The land in the concession is so expensive, but why do everyone still sharpen their heads and drill into the concession?" It's not because in the concession, without the extortion of the government, out of the concession, in this way, such problems will follow, just with the help of the governor, what's the use, the king of Hades is better, the little ghosts are difficult, with that official uniform, some little ghosts will be avoided. ”

Hearing this, Chen Moran's face changed sharply, the reason why he came to Nanjing was not to use the Governor of Liangjiang's appreciation of himself to make his blueprint open, if he really drew that blueprint, maybe it would be ...... Sun Mingjiu also saw the change in Chen Moran's face, so he continued to talk to himself.

"Of course, you are a person who does great things, if you really don't want to continue, I won't force ......"

What if this braid is kept, thinking that he even did the work of cutting off his head for the sake of glory and wealth, not to mention just keeping a braid, thinking of this, Chen Moran only felt a burst of pride in his heart.

"Let's go! Go to the barbershop and shave your head! ”

Gritting his teeth, Chen Mo said something!

When the razor swept overhead, it rustled, the cold blade and the fingers of the shaver master turned on the head, and the not too long hair fell in front of him.

With a few sharp knives, the forehead was shaved, and the shaver had a razor in one hand, bending over and laughing.

"Master, you wait, stunned, you won't be able to renew the braid for the master!"

"Master, you wait, the stunned person is a little stunned, but this hand and foot are still sharp!"

When the young man in the back was braiding himself, Chen Moran looked at the smooth forehead on the basin shelf, and vaguely seemed to be able to understand the feelings of those ancestors who would rather kill their heads than shave their heads two hundred and fifty-six years ago.

It was an inexplicable humiliation, a pain almost like being skinned, and although each knife had been swept across the scalp, it was cut in the heart. Those who have never shaved their heads, or who do not know what it means to shave the hair of a slave, almost means that they have changed from a man to a minion!

Suddenly, Chen Moran stood up suddenly, and the braids that had just been half smaller suddenly spread out!

"Master, you do ......"

"Get out!"

Chen Moran, who was pale, let out a low roar, and the young man behind him was startled by his roar.

"Look at you eyeless thing, master, you are angry, you are angry...... I can't make a mistake and be stunned! ”

When the master of the shaving shop saw the customer, he was angry, and said that his man had a heavy hand, first scolded and kicked, and then made up for it next to him.

"Of course, you are ......"

Sun Mingjiu was also taken aback by Chen Moran's sudden anger, and Zhang Renkui and Lu Guozheng were even more busy running into the store from the outside, looking like they were all ready to fight.

"Master, you are old and discouraged, and you are ......"

The master who was frightened by this formation did not kneel down when his legs were weak, and these people were dressed in clothes that he could afford to provoke with a shaved head.

Sitting back in the chair, Chen Moran glanced at himself in the mirror, his smooth forehead was glowing with blue light, and the blue light was dazzling and dazzling.

"It's none of your business, give me the braid at the back! Lao Zhang, Guozheng, quit, don't scare people! ”

With a straight waist and a straight face, Chen Moran was sitting there, looking at himself in the mirror with some anger in his eyes, this will, not to mention the head shaving master, that Sun Mingjiu felt inexplicable, but he was also shocked and didn't dare to interject, anyone could see that now he was pressing the fire.

"Master...... Lord, you ...... You're waiting! ”

When the shaved master spoke, his words stammered, and his legs even trembled, and he looked trembling.

"Renew it for me, I can't thank you!"

Chen Moran closed his eyes and stopped looking, but his hands were clenched into fists, pressed against his knees, and his breathing was a little heavy.

has been following the carriage, after the carriage stopped next to the shaving shop, watching the lame man enter the shop to shave his head, Yan Wenyuan went directly to the tea stall opposite the shop, at first Yan Wenyuan was still a little curious about his lack of braids for a few months, but all the things in the shop fell into his eyes.

"This man...... Once I took my silver here to charge the uncle!! ”

Looking at the appearance of the lame man sitting upright, Yan Wenyuan knew that this lame man must have shaved his head for the first time, and he really thought that he was a bird in the forty-nine city that time, and this eyesight was ...... When I was secretly annoyed in my heart, my heart was a little more angry with this.

If it were someone else, I was afraid that he would have rushed up at this time, but he Yan Wenyuan was not an ordinary person, he not only endured it, but even smiled, and even asked for a pot of tea to drink there, and while drinking him, he thought in his heart, this face is always going to be recovered.

Finally, almost an hour later, Chen Moran's braid was finally renewed, with some anger in his face, and Chen Moran, who was a little unwilling in his heart, snorted coldly when he got up, and the head shaving master next to him was frightened by his cold snort.

"Guozheng, pay the money!"

As soon as the words came out, Chen Moran walked out of the shaving shop, it was really uncomfortable to keep this braid, but he still endured it, except for himself, when this braid was left on his head, no one knew the impact on him, but the anger on his face couldn't be hidden.

"Yo, I said that when I went out today, why did I listen to the magpie calling, I never thought that I would meet Chen Ye here!"

Chen Moran, who was originally unhappy, was about to say that he was the one who didn't open his eyes, but when he turned his head, his eyes suddenly widened, it was him! The old fox!
