Chapter 2 The Fourth Uncle of Guangzhou
The spring in Shuangyang County is excellent, the new swallows are shuttling in the willows, and the colorful butterflies are dancing in the thousands of purples and reds.
The eight-height wall of a small courtyard of the Xie family couldn't stop the laughter of the girl inside the wall.
The descendants of the Xie family have received a strict order from the young master Xie Niancheng - they are not allowed to step into this courtyard for half a step, this small courtyard is a birthday gift that the young master received when he was ten years old, worth 10,000 oceans!
Giving a birthday gift of 10,000 oceans to a ten-year-old child seems to outsiders to be extravagant, but several people in charge of the Xie family who know the inside story know that this gift is what Xie Niancheng deserves! Through Xie Niancheng's ghost idea, the Xie family has earned more than millions of oceans over the years? Now the Xie family has some reputation in the country, and it can be said that most of it depends on Xie Niancheng.
In the small courtyard is a pool about 15 meters in circumference, the water is a beautiful blue in the beautiful tiles, and some deck chairs are placed on the large umbrella held up by the pool.
This pool and those tiles were made by Xie Niancheng.
The swimming pool water circulation system applied for a patent, and the "Xie Ji Pool Brick" was marketed throughout the country, which made the Xie family from the landowner of Shuangyang County to the owner of the nationally renowned Xie industry.
Mo said that it was the Provincial Overseer's Mansion that invited Xie's Industry to build a swimming pool, which was the home of the prime minister in the capital, and the swimming pool was also built by the Xie family.
And Xie Xinyi, the second eldest of the Xie family, also lived in Shanghai for a long time for this business.
Xie Niancheng was lying on a chair, Haruko gently pinched his shoulders, and Kagura squatted at his feet to thump his legs.
In the yard, the fragrance permeating the house was Sister Cannon barbecuing, Athena and Ling Boli were swimming in three-point swimsuits designed by Xie Niancheng, and the green-haired CC was playing in the water while teaching Rena and Lolita Chinese.
Sister Pao's craftsmanship is very good, the grilled meat skewers and chicken wings are smooth and delicious, the girls are praising it after eating, Xie Niancheng and others have eaten about it, and got up and announced: "Okay, today's show has officially started." β
Ling Boli said: "I blindfolded the young master's eyes, everyone jumped into the water first, after dozens of sounds, the young master can only stand in the water, his feet can't move, the young master touches whoever takes off his clothes, the young master guesses who it is, if the young master guesses it, the young master wins, and the one who is touched will have to go ashore and jump a martial arts, if the young master doesn't touch anyone within three minutes or guesses wrong, he will be fined the young master a hundred oceans." β
"Playing this again, the young master is so shameless." Kagura muttered.
"Young master, you are not allowed to peek." Sister Cannon first declared.
Hearing CC's translation, Reyna and Lolita's faces immediately turned red.
The other girls seem to play this game often, seeing that Ling Boli blindfolded Xie Niancheng's eyes, "plop plop" and jumped off the pool, this pool is irregularly shaped, and the girls who have played the game are hiding.
After Xie Niancheng counted ten times, he also jumped in, shouting in his mouth: "Sisters, don't hide, my grandson is here." β
Rena and Lolita suffered a loss, in the middle of the pool, and soon Lolita was touched by Xie Niancheng.
"Hehe, you girl won't stand still on purpose, so that Young Master Ben can touch it, right? Undress quickly. β
Lolita's face turned crimson with shame, and she took off her shirt at the signal of Ling Boli on the shore.
Xie Niancheng muttered: "Young Master Ben doesn't need to touch his hair, just touch the little white rabbit to know who it is." β
Xie Niancheng stretched out his hand, followed Lolita's arm, touched the neck, and then went down, touching a soft ball, wrapping it with his five fingers and kneading it gently.
Lolita only felt a tingling sensation spread throughout her body, and she trembled like electricity.
"Well, the reaction is so big, plus this size, why is it so much like Ling Boli, haha, I know, you are cheating today, Ling Boli should have been a referee on the shore, you also let her go into the water, and deliberately stood in the middle, hmph, will this young master be your pawn? Limboly, let's go dance! β
Xie Niancheng opened his cover, his hand was on a little white rabbit, and the owner of the rabbit had closed his eyes in shame.
"Young master, you lost."
"yes, we can go to dinner again tonight."
"Hehe, the young master is so stupid."
"Wow, Miss Lolita looks so young, that one is about the same age as Limpoli and Athena."
Girls, you say a word to me, Xie Niancheng patted his head, and pretended to be annoyed and said, "Hey, Lolita, you are really beyond the young master's expectations." β
Lolita said in unfamiliar Chinese: "Less...... Young master, can you put ...... Handle...... Let go of ......"
Xie Niancheng let go of the claws on the rabbit.
"Dangdangβ"
A knock on the door broke the mood.
Xie Niancheng shouted: "Who, disturbing Young Master Ben's class, I want to die." β
The subordinate at the door said in a panic: "Young master, it's the fourth master who has come back from Guangzhou, and he is talking to the eldest master in the main hall...... Pass you through. β
As soon as he heard that the fourth master was back, Xie Niancheng quickly got dressed and ran to the main hall.
Xie Niancheng's cheap father - Xie Xinren, the head of the Xie family, has three younger brothers, the second Xie Xinyi is mainly responsible for the production of ceramic tiles and construction in Shanghai, the third Xie Xinzhi manages the county's land and shops, and the fourth Xie Xinyong is 25 years old this year.
Xie Niancheng played with Xie Xinyong every day when he was a child, so his favorite was the fourth uncle, and when he heard that the fourth uncle was back, he couldn't wait to fly over.
When they arrived at the main hall, Xie Xinren, who was wearing a Chinese-style satin gown, was sitting at the table with Xie Xinyong, who was wearing a black fitted suit, and was talking about something, Xie Niancheng shouted while running:
"Fourth uncle, fourth uncle, are you back...... Wow, fourth uncle, you are handsome again, what are you doing in the past two or three years? Did you find me a few more aunts, let's talk about it? β
Next to him, Xie Xinren shouted: "It's not big or small, how can you speak?" You stand up, and you are called here because you have something to say, and you should be in order. β
Xie Niancheng made a helpless expression at the fourth uncle, and stood in front of the two of them in a proper manner.
Xie Xinyong is 1.8 meters tall, handsome and tall, he was a well-known chic boy in the county back then, he went out to drink foreign ink for a few years, and his realm among the flowers was one level higher.
In the past few years in Guangzhou, this fourth uncle doesn't know how many young ladies he has captured!
Xie Niancheng admired the fourth uncle who was in the top four of Pan, Donkey, Deng, Xiao, and Xianli.
Compared with the fourth uncle in his memory three years ago, Xie Xin's courage in front of Xie Niancheng is calmer, and he is no longer frivolous; There is more precipitation in the eyes, which is undoubtedly a fatal temptation for women.
Xie Xinren shook his head at Xie Xinyong and said, "Nian Cheng, this kid, I can't control it, you come and tell him to let him study hard." β
Without waiting for Xie Xinyong to speak, Xie Niancheng said first: "Dad, why are you studying...... My family is so rich, can I make more money by studying? Besides, I'm thinking about how to make something new and make a lot of money, so why bother reading something useless? β
Before Xie Niancheng came to this world, he was a small technician in a chemical supplies company, and he studied in a good university.
Besides, where is the pleasure of reading?
Xie Xinyong had expected Xie Niancheng's reaction, and said unhurriedly: "Xiao Cheng, originally, reading is readable or not, but now, you have to read, this is still your own fault." β
Xie Niancheng was a little puzzled, and his brows furrowed--what kind of truth is this?
Xie Xinyong explained to him: "Fourth Uncle knows that you are smart, there are some truths you just haven't thought about, Fourth Uncle will tell you why you didn't need to read it before." β
"A few years ago, the family was just a landlord, relying on the land to eat, and the family has always been kind to the villagers, although the money is not much, but it is more than enough, even if you don't study, it is not bad to be a farmer for the rest of your life. It doesn't matter if you don't read. β
Xie Niancheng nodded.
Xie Xinyong continued: "The swimming pool and tiles you made have made the family a lot of money, but do you know that for every hundred oceans that the family earns back now, they have to pay two hundred oceans to the overseers in the province, the division commanders in the government, and the tax cards in various places, and even so, your second uncle has to spend tens of thousands of oceans every year to make some ...... everywhere."
"Even so, our family business is still remembered by many people...... You see, if there is no one in the family who is an official, this family business will be ruined sooner or later. β
Xie Niancheng is a human being in two lifetimes, and he understands this truth as soon as he hears it.
"Fourth uncle, you and your father are so capable, you can get it."
Xie Xinren slapped the table: "Hmph, how old is Lao Tzu this year, how old are you, is there a reason for you to work hard and you spend all day drinking?" Let me put it here for you, study hard for me from tomorrow, if you can't get into college in two years, and if you can't become an official, I'll give away all the little girls in your yard! β
Xie Niancheng was trembling, and sure enough, he knew that his son was Mo Ruo's father!
This desperate plan is too ruthless, it seems that it will not work if you don't have a snack this time.
However, in the national examination of this world, there should be no problem with the knowledge content of the questions except Chinese.
"Good, good...... Dad, I'm going to take the test, can't I take the test? β
Xie Xinren and the two brothers exchanged glances, and they both saw a hint of success in each other's eyes.
The two brothers talked about the world's major events and asked Xie Niancheng to observe.
"Big brother, I'm afraid the world is not going to be peaceful...... When I studied in the West, I saw that now our Han Kingdom is much backward compared to the West, and many people in the West are clamoring to 'rebuild a new world order', but I am afraid that there will be external troubles in the future. β
"Yes, the country is also stormy, the overseers in the capital can't control all parts of the country at all, it's just a decoration, under the rule of a better overseer, there are still good days, some overseers there, the people can't even eat, bandits are everywhere, a sign of troubled times."
Xie Niancheng interjected: "It's good to be messy, it's good to be messy, heroes are born in troubled times, in my opinion, the revolution a hundred years ago was not thorough enough, but the emperor abdicated, and the warlords were still divided in various places, so there should be another thorough revolution." β
Xie Xinyong's eyes lit up, this idea is the consensus of radical nationalists in China now, he has been campaigning for this matter all these years, but he didn't expect his nephew in the countryside to have such insight.
"Yes, Xiao Cheng is right...... Xiaocheng, since you have such insight, do you know what is most important in troubled times? β
"Of course I do, the barrel of the gun."
"Well, that's good!"
Xie Zhiyong clapped his hands and praised that his comrades in Guangzhou are not as knowledgeable as a country child, some of those people say that money is the most important, some say that talent is the most important, some say that the technology industry is the most important, and some say that everything is important, and this nephew's idea is completely the same as his own.
"I have an army in hand, and I have the world." Xie Xinyong said.
The Xie brothers began to discuss some trivial matters such as purchasing arms to expand the militia and recruiting talents in Shanghai and Guangzhou.
"The troubled times are coming, whether my Xie family is a weathered dragon or a broken family depends on your uncle and nephew." Xie Xinren said.
"What did the eldest brother say about this...... When Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, beheaded the white snake and raised righteousness, he was forty and seven, and the eldest brother just turned forty this year, compared to Gaozu, he was still a lot younger. β
These words hit the bottom of Xie Xinren's heart, stirring up turbulent waves, and it was difficult to calm down.
