Chapter 30: "Beggar" Liu Quansheng
Uiju Castle, less than 100 miles from Kyoto, is located between Kyoto and Changlong Fortress.
At this time, on the official road in the west of Yizhou City, an old man and a young man came on horseback, and the young man was a man wearing a crown with a green head and a somewhat elegant man, a light cyan round-necked robe, and a blue diexie belt around his waist.
The old man was dressed in gray cloth and tied with a scarf, and he looked like he should be a steward.
"Uncle, where is the front?" This old man and young man are Ye Xiaochen from Changlong City, and the housekeeper A Gui.
"Second Young Master, this is Yizhou City, and we are already halfway through the trip." Agui responded.
"Uncle, go into the city to drink saliva and rest your feet, I'm a little thirsty." Ye Xiaochen didn't drink water when he came out, and he didn't bring it, as for Agui......
Halfway through the river, Agui got off the horse and went to the river to drink two sips, and warmly invited Ye Xiaochen, but Ye Xiaochen politely declined.
Ye Xiaochen doesn't dare to drink this river water, so let's insist on drinking well water!
"Okay, then let's rest in Yiju City." Agui nodded in agreement.
This Uiju city is far less majestic than Changlong, and the entire city is only about one-third of Changlong.
Not far from entering the city, Ye Xiaochen saw a group of people gathered together, talking about it and not knowing what they were talking about.
Because the streets of Yizhou City are not very wide, this person seems to be a little crowded, Ye Xiaochen also discovered this after entering the city, so he and the housekeeper Agui both turned over and dismounted, led the horse, and looked for a place to rest in Yizhou City.
But now I was attracted by the crowd of people, and I was still leading the horse, and I couldn't squeeze in.
Seeing that the two old men beside him were talking to each other, with compassion on their faces, Ye Xiaochen grabbed the sleeve of an old man.
"Uncle, what's going on here?" Ye Xiaochen asked curiously.
"Hey, miserable, good people don't have anything to repay!" The old man did not respond directly, but continued to sigh.
This made Ye Xiaochen even more interested.
Looking at Ye Xiaochen's extraordinary dressing and the divine horse in his hand, this old man didn't dare to be too appetizing.
"This Liu Yuanwai was originally a big family in my Yizhou city, and he did a business business, buying some treasures or ornaments from remote areas to sell in the city, and the business was quite prosperous." The old man's words were not small, and some of the people around him who were watching the excitement also gathered around.
"It's just that not long ago, Liu Yuanwai was killed by thieves on the way to business, not to mention the money and goods, and was also cut by the thieves, thanks to the desperate rescue of the guards, he let his father and son pick up a small life." The old man said with even more pity,
"Liu Yuanwai thought that when he returned home, the father and son would be able to be treated, but when he returned home, he found that the family was empty, and even the Liu family's house was sold, and it was Liu Yuanwai's concubine who did this unconscionable thing!"
"I see, no wonder that Liu Yuanwai looks like he is about to lose his breath, it is estimated that half of it is injured and half of it is angry!" Another onlooker suddenly realized.
"Hey, this old Liu Jinfu is still a good outsider, and he is very enthusiastic about his neighbors, who knew that such a disaster would happen!" The old man who spoke before was full of sighs in his words.
Ye Xiaochen's expression froze after hearing this, and he still had some doubts, because he felt that the name "Liu Jinfu" was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was for a while.
"So what are people watching now?" Ye Xiaochen put aside his doubts and continued to ask.
"Now the onlookers inside are Liu Yuanwai's son, the family has suffered this catastrophe, and he is penniless, but he still has to save his father, so the son of the Liu family is selling himself." The old man sighed.
"Selling?" Ye Xiaochen really didn't expect that there would really be such a thing of selling his body, knowing the whole story, Ye Xiaochen was moved by some compassion, but he didn't take it to heart about selling his body.
"Uncle Gui, you go in and give ten taels of silver, and then let's find a place to rest!" Ye Xiaochen said to the housekeeper next to him, Agui. If you can help, you can help, although this money may not be able to cure Liu Yuanwai, but at least you can ask a doctor to treat it.
"Yes, Second Young Master." Uncle Gui did not object, and he was also very pleased with the second young master's kindness.
Ye Xiaochen took the reins of the horse in Uncle Gui's hand and watched him squeeze into the crowd.
The people around looked at Ye Xiaochen in surprise, and they didn't understand why this noble son was kind enough to give money and not accept the son of the Liu family, what the son of the Liu family asked for was five taels of silver to sell himself for three years.
Ye Xiaochen didn't know, and he wouldn't care if he knew.
After a while, Uncle Gui squeezed out of it, Ye Xiaochen looked at him with a smile, but the smile in his eyes suddenly became suspicious, because Ye Xiaochen was looking at an unkempt man squeezed out of the crowd, his arm was tied with a cloth belt, and he should have been injured.
"Engong, please stay!" As soon as the man spoke, people's eyes were also focused, and they all looked at the housekeeper Agui, who was squeezing out of the crowd.
But hearing the man's voice, Ye Xiaochen was stunned, and his puzzled eyes turned into consternation.
"Boss?" Ye Xiaochen is too familiar with this voice, and after four years of companionship, this voice is imprinted in his mind.
Liu Jinfu and Ye Xiaochen also understood that the father of Liu Quansheng, the boss of the dormitory, is called Liu Jinfu, the CEO of a well-known company in Jizhou, Jinfu Pharmaceutical!
No wonder it's familiar.
Ye Xiaochen carefully looked at the unkempt and injured man, and gradually merged with Liu Quansheng's appearance.
Ye Xiaochen had thought that he would meet his brothers in this world, and he had also imagined what the meeting would be like, but this scene was really something he never expected.
"Engong, please give me your name, and when I settle down my father, I will definitely not break my promise and go to serve Engong." The son of the Liu family is Liu Quansheng, and in the past few days, he has truly experienced what the world is hot and cold.
In the past, some partners, seeing that his family suffered this disaster, no one reached out to help, and gloated at the jokes of his father and son, if it were not for the care of several neighbors, it is estimated that his father would not be able to survive today, but a few kind neighbors are not very good at home, and they can't support the expenses of their father and son.
As a last resort, he has been here since yesterday, selling himself to save his father, but it's a pity that ten taels of silver bought him for three years, and the rich and big families gave up under the trade-off, and some well-wishers would give a few pennies to make his father and son barely survive without starving.
I thought that today was a futile return, but I didn't expect that an old man squeezed into the crowd and handed him a money bag, and after he took it, the old man didn't say anything, turned around and squeezed out of the crowd.
He thought that the bag was just money, but when he saw it, he was shocked, and there were several taels of silver and copper coins in it, so he hurriedly chased it out.
Ah Gui looked at Ye Xiaochen in embarrassment.
Ye Xiaochen looked at Liu Quansheng, who was unkempt and unkempt, like a beggar, with a complicated expression.
