Chapter 220: A Heavy Blow
Chen Yuan nodded, looked around, didn't see the shopkeeper Yang, and immediately said to Linghua: "Linghua, go and see where the shopkeeper is now, you go and tell him about the situation of going back with me this time, I think he has been worried." ”
Linghua nodded: "Okay." ”
When he returned to the house, it didn't take long for Chen Shizhong to come in with a big hug: "Big brother, quickly find a place to put things down for me, I won't be able to hold them soon!" ”
Chen Yuan hurriedly cleaned up the table, watched Chen Shizhong put all those things on the table, and asked, "What is this?" ”
Chen Shizhong smiled: "Didn't you ask people to give your villa a name?" These are all people's names. ”
Looking at the pair of papers on the table like a hill, Chen Yuan was really a little surprised: "So many! ”
Chen Shizhong sighed: "This is still what is left after I asked five famous commentators in Bianjing to choose!" If you come two days earlier, more! As soon as the news spread out this time, not only Kaifeng Mansion, but also the surrounding prefectures came to send words! There are more than 20,000 names in total, and there are more than 13,000 after removing some of the repetitions. Those five commentators watched for ten days before picking out these five hundred names for you to choose from. ”
There are more than 20,000 names, this number is enough to show that the effect Chen Yuan wants has been achieved, and it doesn't matter which one to name his villa in the end. He looked at the pile on the table and frowned with a smile: "Let me pick?" Looks like there's something to do in the past two days. By the way, have you been to the address of the villa? ”
Chen Shizhong immediately took out another stack of paper: "It's all here, I have run all over the radius of dozens of miles outside Bianjing City, the scenery you said is beautiful, and there are many places with mountains and rivers." After removing the problems that cannot be built because of the soil quality, and then asking the Taoist priest to look at the feng shui, I think there are three most suitable places. Does Big Brother want to see all the details, or just the three I picked for you? ”
Chen Yuan heard that he had even surveyed the soil and feng shui, and was very satisfied with his work efficiency: "I don't worry about you doing things, which three places?" ”
Chen Shizhong put away the pile again: "Go out of the West City Gate and go north for four miles, there is a vacant land, surrounded by mountains and rivers, two acres and seven minutes, the location is close to the official road, but the price of that place is a little more expensive, and there is a military camp next to it." ”
Chen Yuan immediately shook his head after hearing this: "No, we do the business of casinos and hooks, and try not to get close to the barracks." ”
Chen Shizhong didn't understand a little, people do the business of casinos and hook bars, if there is a barracks next to them, they will specially pull those soldiers to come, how can Chen Yuan do the opposite?
Seeing Chen Shizhong's question, Chen Yuan explained: "Our tick bar must be high-grade, and the casino must also be high-grade. Make the guests who come in feel that they are not here to gamble, but to enjoy life. In such a high-grade place, it is natural that those rich people think that the soldiers who are rude cannot come in. ”
Chen Shizhong nodded: "Then I'll say the second one, in the south of the city, the location is very good, there are no people nearby, let alone a military camp, although it is a little far away from the official road, but as long as we pave the road a little, it shouldn't be a big problem." However, this land is a good land, and it belongs to the owner. ”
Chen Yuanyi waved his hand: "It doesn't matter if you have a master, as long as the price is right, I believe that any transaction can be made, what about the third piece of land?" ”
Chen Shizhong immediately said: "The third piece is also a borderless land, but it is a little farther away, in the west of the city, fifteen miles. ”
Fifteen miles, this distance is a bit far, Chen Yuan asked, "Who is the owner of that piece of land in the south of the city?" ”
Chen Shizhong hesitated for a moment and whispered, "You know, Chai Daguan." ”
Chen Yuan was stunned when he heard this: "His? ”
Chen Shizhong nodded: "Yes, according to my investigation, after the Chai officials ate the lawsuit, the properties in the city were all confiscated by the emperor." However, the emperor considered that their surname Chai had a death-free token from Emperor Taizu after all, so he left him such a piece of land so that he could live by collecting some rent. ”
Chen Yuan suddenly laughed: "Cheng, this is this land." ”
Chen Shizhong looked at his face and hesitated, as if he had something to say, but he didn't speak. Chen Yuan looked up at him: "What do you want to say?" ”
Chen Shizhong whispered: "Big brother, after all, the big official has had a relationship with you, and you bought this land, which is tantamount to cutting off his future source of livelihood, isn't this a bit too much?" ”
Chai Yang is now living on those few acres of land rent, in Chen Shizhong's opinion, if Chen Yuan really regards Chai Yang as a friend, he should not touch that land at this time.
But Chen Yuan's thoughts are completely different from him, that is, because he takes Chai Yang as a friend, and hopes that Chai Yang can stand up again and be the Chai official he was at the beginning, so he wants to take away the land that Chai Yang finally relied on for survival!
If you want someone to stand up, you have to not only help him, but also take away his crutches. It may seem cruel to take away crutches, but if you don't take them, then the person may have to rely on crutches for walking in the future.
Chen Yuan didn't want Chai Yang to become a waste who was drunk and dreamed of dying on land rent.
"Let's just say this matter, I'll go to visit Lu Xiangguo and Pang Taishi at night, I'm going to decide Chai Yang's land, and I won't give him a big son!" Chen Yuan slammed the table hard, and Chen Shizhong closed his mouth.
In general, Chen Shizhong is very satisfied with these things, and it is time to go to Amuda, to be precise, it is time to deal with Hu Jing's affairs.
She promised Chen Yuan that if the two of them could still see each other alive when they came back this time, she would enter the door with Linghua. Chen Yuan wants to help her, help her settle the rest of the matter, and let her follow him in peace and stability in the future.
Amuda took Chen Yuan and walked on the street for two days, and he was very vigilant all the way to see if there were people from the Taishi Mansion to follow him. Just a few days after the incident, Pang Xi did send someone to follow Amuda, but he didn't find anything suspicious, and he slowly relaxed.
After turning into the alley, Amuda suddenly jumped from the alley into the street again, Chen Yuan found that he seemed to be spinning in circles, and knew in his heart that this must be Amuda to prevent being followed, and every time he walked indiscriminately for a while, which was also necessary.
An hour later, when they came to the mouth of an alley, Amuda suddenly turned in and opened the innermost door of the alley: "The shopkeeper is here." You go in and see, I'm here to take the wind. ”
Chen Yuan nodded: "Well, I've worked hard for you." ”
This is the most ordinary small courtyard, not big, three main rooms, two side rooms. Such a layout and such a house are everywhere in Bianjing. Chen Yuan appreciated in his heart that Amuda did things properly, it was precisely because of the ordinariness that it would not make people suspicious, and Amuda was careful every time he came, so naturally he was not found any flaws by Pang Xi.
The courtyard is not big, a few steps to the door of the main house, Chen Yuan gently pulled the door knocker, only to hear Hu Jing's voice from inside: "Who?" ”
The voice was very low, it came from behind the door, Chen Yuan was sure that this girl must be waiting behind with a sword in her hand, if it was the person who searched for her, she would definitely do it immediately.
"You're a good man." Chen Yuan also said softly, and his voice was also very small.
The door was opened, and Hu Jing's face, which had been making Chen Yuan a little worried, finally appeared in front of him, and the two of them were very excited, Chen Yuan walked into the room quickly, and closed the door with his backhand: "Hurry up and let me see if my heroine is injured!" ”
After speaking, he picked up Hu Jing's face and looked at it carefully. Hu Jing's face was full of happiness: "Big brother, are you back?" ”
After finishing speaking, the whole person threw himself into Chen Yuan's arms, crying with joy: "I thought I would never see you again this time!" ”
Chen Yuan hugged her: "Don't say such things, it's unlucky, aren't I coming back?" What did you promise me? ”
Hu Jing was stunned: "What's the matter?" ”
Chen Yuan reached out and pinched her nose: "You said that I would marry me when I came back, did you forget?" ”
Hu Jing's face was slightly red at first, and then he suddenly shook his head: "Big brother, it may not work, the old thief Pang Ji is now arresting us everywhere, if I follow you, it will affect you!" ”
Chen Yuan suddenly put his middle finger on Hu Jing's lips: "The key is whether you agree or not, as long as you agree, all the troubles will be with me!" ”
Hu Jing nodded quickly: "I naturally agreed!" It's just big brother, it's really troublesome this time, and if you speak for me, it's likely to be involved. ”
Chen Yuan said confidently: "Pang Xi has long known the relationship between the two of us, do you think that Lao Pang believes that we have no relationship if I don't speak?" Don't worry, brother, it's not like you haven't seen my skills, what can stump me? ”
Hu Jing laughed again, and there were two dimples hanging on the little mouth, which made Chen Yuan like it very much. My heart was also full of pity, and I took Hu Jing's hand and sat on the side of the bed: "Come, let my brother see if there are any injuries on his body." ”
Hu Jing shook his head: "It's really fine, it's just a few minor injuries." ”
Seeing Chen Yuan sit down on the bed, Hu Jing suddenly changed: "Brother Chen, don't sit!" ”
was about to pull up Chen Yuan, but it was too late.
Chen Yuan only felt as if he was sitting on something, and when he was about to touch something with his hand, a scream suddenly came from under his buttocks: "Ah! ”
The cry was a man's. And it can be heard that although his cry is full of pain, he suppresses it and tries not to make his voice too loud.
Chen Yuan was frightened, and before he could jump up, Hu Jing grabbed Chen Yuan's arm and threw it out, throwing Chen Yuan to the ground, lifting the bed curtain and getting in, and asked in a very anxious voice: "How is the eldest brother?" You okay? ”
The man on the bed whispered, "It's okay." ”
He was weak, and judging by his voice, it was a man who had been badly injured.
However, Chen Yuan's mood was even weaker at this time, and he slowly got up from the ground, his face was already pale! The blow was too big for him!
