Chapter 317: White Peony
Li Wenxuan, who stayed in the Wuyuan and accompanied Chu Hanlu for a long time, was the defendant's grandson Wenzhong who met him before he got up and left. When he walked into the main hall, he hadn't seen this person for many days, and found that he was getting fatter and fatter, and kindly reminded: "Old Sun, you have to control your mouth, you must open your legs, otherwise there will be a big problem with your body." ”
Sun Wenzhong, who likes him to call himself like this, naturally feels that the relationship between the two is the most intimate, not like seeing each other. With a smile on his face, this smile made the flesh on his face, chin, and neck shake coherently: "You don't know that I am a person who eats with a mouthful." This one couldn't control his mouth, so he got fatter and fatter, and when he became fat, he didn't want to move anymore. Li Wenxuan, who was sitting on the circle chair, put his hands on the ears of the chair and leaned his back on the back of the chair, looking very relaxed and casual. I knew he was telling the truth, so I simply laughed.
and Sun Wenzhong, who has known him since he met, has become more and more good. Since Lin Zhengbei entered Beijing, it was under Li Wenxuan's matchmaking that prompted the two to join hands in business. With Li Wenxuan's relationship, their goods are unimpeded through the province and county, saving a lot of trouble and saving a lot of joint costs.
Sun Wenzhong, who has gained a lot of benefits from this coming and going, is also an understanding person, so he took the opportunity of the day before Chinese New Year's Eve to come to the Li Mansion to pay New Year's greetings. Sending gold and silver directly inevitably felt tacky and ostentatious, and he imitated the appearance of a literati to be elegant once, so he ordered people to search and search everywhere, and bought a high-grade Kunqu opera troupe and sent it over.
Looking outside, Sun Wenzhong, who raised his hand and slapped it twice, signaled that his housekeeper could bring the Kunqu opera team that had been waiting for a long time under the corridor. Under the head of Steward Sun, the group of people who followed him walked into the main hall. Bowing to Li Wenxuan, who was sitting on the main seat, was uniform.
Li Wenxuan, who is past the goal, really has no feeling for Kunqu opera or anything. However, the women in their own house are the opposite, they like it very much. He couldn't refuse Sun Wenzhong's kindness and smiled: "Old Sun." You're so kind. Seeing that he was happy to accept Sun Wenzhong, the direct reason for giving this heavy gift was that there was both personal friendship and political investment, after all, such a high-grade, complete Kunqu opera small class would be converted into cash at least 30,000 or 50,000 taels of silver.
"This good thing is naturally given to people who understand it." Sun Wenzhong, who knew that there was no literati in the country who did not like Kunqu Opera, it is expected that he also liked this kind of thing. In his impression, the Li Mansion sent people to invite some famous Kunqu opera troupes in the capital to return to the house to sing for several days.
Steward Sun, who deliberately stood next to the heroine, introduced Li Wenxuan with a smile and a pun: "This one is named White Peony." But as the name suggests, the skin is snow-white, and the flowers are like peonies. In the future, Master Li will definitely really feel her goodness. She was mentioned by him to her stage name, and hurriedly made a blessing to Li Wenxuan again. Her hair is like a black waterfall, her figure is graceful, her eyes are like autumn water, and her face is beautiful. The white peony in his early twenties never dreamed of being bought. The family of the master who sent it will be so young.
I originally thought that she was either going to serve the middle-aged or the elderly, after all, before she came, I heard that she was the favorite minister of today, and she was the servant of the Ministry of Rites. After being handed over three times, she has long seen everything in the world quite openly. I was born into the music club and has a good voice. plus a good skin, it is destined to be a fan for the eunuchs. Bai Peony, who couldn't complain about the sky and could only accept his fate, was also slightly happy in his heart, after all, this serving young man was many times stronger than serving the old man. What's more, he is still such a capable son?
Li Wenxuan went to see the heroine with his eyes. I found out that she was indeed a beautiful woman with outstanding appearance. finally understood why this Kunqu opera team would be so expensive. It is not difficult to deduce that the proportion of this heroine in this must not be less, after all, you can not only listen to her singing to please her ears, but also use it on the bed to please her body.
Li Wenxuan, who had a smile on his face, was thinking in his heart, don't say anything about bosom friends, Lao Tzu couldn't even tell what they were singing. If no one explained to me, I would definitely regard Kunqu Opera as Peking Opera. Feeling that they were also an eyesore when they stood here, and it was inconvenient for him to speak, he instructed Zhu Biao, who was standing aside and waiting: "You take them and your group down to settle down first!" Zhu Biao, who had received the order, walked straight out without saying a word, and Bai Peony and the others saluted the new head of the family again, so they followed.
Li Wenxuan, who accompanied Sun Wenzhong and chatted for a while with serious matters and gossip, naturally understood what he meant. Sun Wenzhong and Lin Zhengbei joined forces to do business, definitely not just for this year, but planned to continue for a long time. What he needs to do for them is to use the title given by the imperial court to provide the necessary convenience for the two.
"I see what you mean. There is only one way, and that is that you should only do legal, serious business. When encountering difficulties, I need to unblock the joints above the government, and I will definitely not shirk it. If not, don't blame me for standing idly by. Li Wenxuan, who always had to give him a wake-up call in advance, was afraid that he would become more and more bold, so he would ignore it.
With Li Wenxuan's father-in-law and Sun Wenzhong, who was doing business by himself, he felt like he had a protective umbrella above his head. With such assurances, he can't be busy with serious business, and there will be virtuous people there to take care of those things that are not in the flow. Of course, as for the guys below him, if he wants to make more money, it is inevitable to carry private goods, so he can't be careful.
At this certain stage, silver is not an important issue for Sun Wenzhong, but reputation is the most important thing: "Regarding this, you can rest assured as much as possible." I'm not going to do anything like a traitor. Li Wenxuan, who thought in his heart, "I hope so", did not feel that there was anything wrong with this kind of official and business cooperation between them, after all, it is convenient for others to be convenient for himself. If you don't do it yourself, then there are still people in the Ming Dynasty who are doing it. (To be continued......)
