Chapter 365: Visit Huang Zhong
Jia Rong obviously saw a trace of dissatisfaction from the woman's expression, and glanced at the helpless Xiao Er with disgust, in the Xianlian Pavilion, Su Shuang took Jia Rong's suggestion, Xiao Er and the others worked more and got more, although receiving a guest may not be able to get much extra money, but it can greatly stimulate their enthusiasm, just like the young woman in front of her, who received a salary of two thousand yuan a month at most, and is the best among her peers.
Jia Rong flicked the dust on his body regardless of his image, causing Zhao Yun and the others to smile lightly, if people knew that the general still had such a side, I don't know how they would feel.
Picking up the water prepared for the guests, Jia Rong drank a cow for a while, and after finishing, he gestured to the woman with the empty cup in his hand.
Wang Yue really couldn't help the smile in his heart, and laughed out loud, the officials of Luoyang City all said that Jia Rong was cunning and resourceful, but today he showed a cute side, which made people laugh a little.
The laughter let the woman know that Jia Rong was deliberately embarrassing herself, naturally she didn't have a good face, she was not angry, and when she poured the water, her hand trembled slightly, and the water splashed out, wetting Jia Rong's clothes.
"Bold!" Zhao Yun snorted, and the frightened woman trembled.
The woman's time in Xianlian Pavilion is not short, and there are not a few people she has seen, so she finally couldn't help it, and muttered: "I don't know how thick I want to come to Xianlian Pavilion without money." ”
Jia Rong glanced at the layout of the Xianlian Pavilion again, got up and walked upstairs, it was too late for the woman to stop it, the second floor was where the owner of the Xianlian Pavilion was located, and it was not possible to go in if the woman wanted to go up, even if the woman wanted to go up, she had to inform her in advance.
Liu Si flashed upstairs, bowed down and welcomed Jia Rong in, the woman who watched was stunned, and with his eyesight, he naturally recognized that Liu Si was not a person from the Immortal Love Pavilion at all, could it be that the owner of the Immortal Love Pavilion had changed? The shabby person is the owner of the Immortal Love Pavilion? Thinking of this, the woman's forehead was dripping with sweat.
Jia Rong sat on the top position, glanced left and right, the layout was decent, simple and generous, and echoed Jia Rong's request.
"Lord!" A gorgeously dressed person knelt down in front of Jia Rong, his body trembled slightly, if the woman downstairs saw it, she would definitely be surprised, this person seemed to be the owner of the Immortal Love Pavilion.
Jia Rong said with a smile: "Life in Xiangyang is good, fine clothes and food, I don't know if I have forgotten what I learned at the beginning." Yan Bi nodded at Liu Si.
Liu Si understood, stepped forward quickly, the dagger came out of the air, straight to his neck, and the owner of the Immortal Love Pavilion, who was still humble, dodged Liu Si's attack, and at some point a similar dagger appeared in his hand, bullying him.
Jia Rong got up and said: "Okay, it seems that you haven't forgotten your roots, you will be able to handle the affairs of Xiangyang, and after the affairs of Jingzhou are sorted out, you must immediately pass them to the military division." ”
"No!" The lone wolf soldier said in an excited tone.
"No. 8, you are the leader of the lone wolf soldiers at the beginning, much better than Liu Si, who is not a weapon, if you have time, teach the younger generations of the lone wolf soldiers, don't forget your skills, in troubled times, strength is the most important thing."
Number Eight agreed and bowed down again.
Jia Rong helped No. 8 up, and said earnestly: "The chaos is coming, Xianlian Pavilion is the eyes and ears of the Xiliang Army in Jingzhou, and if Jingzhou can be defeated in the future, Xianlian Pavilion will be indispensable, and it is not impossible to be promoted to a general in the army." ”
"In fact, with your merits, you are enough to become a general in the army, you can choose for yourself, whether to stay in Xiangyang or return to the army?"
No. 8 thought for a long time and replied: "My lord, I am willing to stay in Jingzhou. ”
Jia Rong glanced at No. 8 approvingly, and motioned for him to sit down, Wang Yue Sun Ce was left downstairs, the less people know about such confidential things, the better, at the critical moment, Xianlian Pavilion is the killer weapon in the hands of the Xiliang Army, even if it is the high-level of the Xiliang Army, they only know that Jia Rong has a close relationship with the master of Xianlian Pavilion.
"Treat guests, you can't just rely on appearance, no matter who it is, as long as you come to Xianlian Pavilion, you have to treat it as an uncle, don't do things that violate the principles, but you can't give people a sense of arrogance, businessmen pay attention to harmony and wealth."
Although No. 8 didn't understand what Jia Rong meant, he nodded again and again.
When Jia Rong went to rest, Liu Si told No. 8 what happened downstairs, as the first batch of people to come out of the lone wolf, Liu Si and No. 8 still have a certain relationship.
After the eighth heard about this, he was filled with righteous indignation, and immediately kicked the two out of the Xianlian Pavilion, and even rectified the atmosphere of the Xianlian Pavilion, as the leading merchant in the city, the treatment of the Xianlian Pavilion far exceeded that of other shops, and the people were all proud to be able to enter the Xianlian Pavilion to work, and they were expelled, which means that from the middle people to the inferior people all of a sudden, and the days of not worrying about life are gone.
The environment of Xianlian Pavilion was much better than that of the inn, Jia Rong had a good night's rest, put on the clothes prepared by Xianlian Pavilion, and wandered the streets again.
Jia Rong, who was wearing a good Shu brocade, appeared on the street and attracted the attention of many people, such a dress was enough for ordinary people for half a year, when they knew that Jia Rong was the actual owner of Xianlian Pavilion, it seemed natural to wear such clothes.
Zhao Yun Wang Yue also glanced at Jia Rong in surprise, I have to say that people rely on clothes and horses to rely on saddles, after putting on haode Shu brocade, Jia Rong revealed a sense of nobility all over his body, not the rich son's body, it is the momentum that can only be possessed by being in a high position for a long time, and every move gives people a feeling of not being angry and arrogant.
"Dengzi, I don't know where I stole my clothes." There was a soft muttering sound from the corner not far away, and if Jia Rong was here, he would definitely recognize this person at a glance as the son of Jiangling who had conflicts with him many times.
"Childe, don't say that after this person wears this dress, he is no worse than those scholars in Yingchuan Academy." There was a strange brilliance in the eyes of the family.
Gongzi said unceremoniously: "At the beginning in Jiangling, Cai Zhong had no power, hmph, now in Xiangyang, I want to see where this Dengzi is sacred." ”
"Little boy, don't come nonsense, the adults have repeatedly told us not to cause trouble in Xiangyang City, otherwise we will never be able to come out again."
"It's okay, just watch." Childe seemed to be very dissatisfied with Jiading's suspicions, and waved his hand and said.
Jia Rong didn't know that he had been targeted again, but the lone wolf soldiers would unceremoniously pull out these nails that secretly affected Jia Rong without hesitation.
According to the information that the lone wolf had sent to him, Jia Rong bought some gifts and came to Huang Zhong's residence.
The streets are in tatters, the houses are crooked, and there is no shortage of ragged children running and playing on the streets.
"I didn't expect the bustling Xiangyang City to have such a side." Jia Rong sighed.
"The lord is worried about the world, which is the blessing of the people of the Han Dynasty." Zhao Yundao.
Jia Rong glanced at Zhao Yun in surprise, but he didn't expect Zhao Yun to be flattering.
Wang Yue seemed to have long been numb to such a situation, his eyes kept looking around, as a swordsman with advanced swordsmanship, he was always thinking about how to occupy a favorable terrain and escape at a critical moment, and he still did not change his habits by Jia Rong's side.
In the corner of the street, a lonely figure broke into Jia Rong's field of vision.
"This little brother, do you know the residence of Captain Huang Zhong and Huang?" Jia Rong asked.
Hearing this, the young man raised his head, glanced at Jia Rong with a blank look, and nodded.
Seeing this complexion that does not belong to young people, Jia Rong's brows furrowed slightly, his yellow face was a little scary, his figure was not too much to describe as skin and bones, and his eyes were a little sunken, such a person is definitely the best candidate to make ghost movies in the future.
"Can you lead the way?" Jia Rong asked softly.
The young man's eyes slowly rolled twice, and he nodded in agreement.
Jia Rong followed the young man and walked down the dilapidated streets.
Jia Rong, dressed in brocade, attracted most of the attention, and many people pointed in the direction of Jia Rong, just like a Mercedes-Benz sedan suddenly appeared in the barren and dilapidated countryside in later generations.
"What's your name?" Jia Rong followed in the footsteps of the youth.
"Huang Xu." The young man's words were not superfluous in the slightest, they were very concise, and his gaze at Jia Rong was also a little unkind.
Jia Rong let out an "oh", felt the young man's unkind gaze, looked at him a few times, and continued to walk towards Huang Zhong's residence.
Walking into Huang Zhong's residence, Huang Xu pushed the door open without saying hello, confirming Jia Rong's thoughts.
Huang Zhong has a son, who is seriously ill and goes to the doctor everywhere, but he can't be treated, otherwise as Huang Zhong's lieutenant, he would not live in such a dilapidated house, Huang Xu's pathology echoes Huang Zhong's identity as a son, such a person will definitely not be welcomed by his partners.
"Xu'er, are you back?" The woman, who was about thirty years old, put down the object she was fiddling with and looked up and asked, "Who are these four?" ”
Huang Zhong is just a lieutenant in the army, Xiangyang as the state capital, the most important thing is the big official, Huang Zhong's family is poor, few people are willing to come to the door, even if Huang Zhong makes friends with Haode people come to Huang Zhong's house and are embarrassed to eat, in the long run, fewer and fewer people come to visit.
Handing the gift to Huang Xu, Jia Rong arched his hand and said: "Sister-in-law, I am Huang Zhong's brother, and I have already told him a few days ago that I will come to the mansion to visit one party." ”
"Xu'er, quickly bring the guests to the house." The woman said hurriedly.
Although Huang Zhong's house is dilapidated, it is very tidy, which is Jia Rong's first impression.
Huang Zhong was not at home, Huang and Jia Rong chatted casually, Huang's appearance gradually showed wrinkles over the years, but you could vaguely see the demeanor of the year.
"Sister-in-law, I wonder when Brother Huang will come back?"
"I'll be back in a little while." Huang Xu interjected.
After Huang Xu went out, Jia Rong asked softly, "Sister-in-law, what's wrong with Xu'er?" ”
Huang glanced at Jia Rong, this extravagant young man thought that he had just met Huang Zhong, otherwise he would not have asked this question, it is not a secret that Captain Huang has a sick son in Xiangyang City.
"Xu'er has been weak since she was a child, and her husband has spent a lot of money for this, but it still doesn't get better." Mentioning this matter, Huang's tone could not hide the sadness, Huang Zhong's monthly salary was not enough for Huang Xu to take medicine, and relatives would shake their heads to avoid borrowing money.
Jia Rong nodded and said, "Sister-in-law, I know a famous doctor who is quite famous, and I don't know if I can cure Xu'er's illness." ”
