Chapter 197

It is said that the ancestors of the Jiang family were big officials in ancient times, and it was a famous home of Ding Shi Ringing Bell in the Yuncheng area, and during the Anti-Japanese War, the Jiang family also organized a civil counterattack. During the difficult period when the founding of the People's Republic of China had just begun, the Jiang family handed over most of their family property and set up dozens of porridge sheds in Yuncheng, which almost fed half of the people in Yuncheng.

Later, the Jiang family made a fortune by relying on the antique and mahogany business, and became the richest man in Cloud City, with a high prestige in Cloud City.

But in the last few generations of the Jiang family, the people gradually withered, the previous generation of the head of the family Jiang Shunwu only had one son, named Jiang Huaishu, unfortunately Jiang Huaishu was in a car accident at the age of forty, and his wife was killed, leaving the Jiang family with a grandson who was not yet ten years old.

The grandfather and grandson have guarded the Jiang family for more than ten years, but unfortunately, this grandson of the Jiang family does not like to do business and has been wandering abroad, and only Jiang Lao is left in the family to support the huge family business.

Over the years, Jiang Shunwu has also begun to shrink the Jiang family's business, cultivate self-cultivation, and live in a simple house.

It is said that Mr. Jiang has a strange personality, and if he likes something, even if it is just an ordinary tile, he will spend a lot of money to buy it back, put it on the wall of his house, and sit under the wall every day to enjoy it. If he doesn't like it, hundreds of thousands and millions of antiques will be thrown to his subordinates and used in the backyard as a food bowl for feeding chickens.

Therefore, Su Xi said that if Ming Zuo went to Jiang Shunwu to buy this pair of jade rings, he would definitely not be able to buy them.

"I'm afraid the Jiang family's things are not so easy to get." Ling Jiuze said lightly and looked at Su Xi, "Why did you go by yourself?" ”

Su Xi's eyes rolled and he slowly spoke, "I think, I'll go there and say a few nice words to Old Man Jiang, he sees me as a little girl, maybe he will agree to sell Yuhuan to me." ”

Ling Jiuze chuckled, "You still say nice things, why haven't you told me?" ”

Su Xi glanced at Ming Zuo quickly, his cheeks were slightly hot, and he frowned lightly, "Talk about serious things, don't go off-topic." ”

Ling Jiuze hooked his lips and smiled, and instructed Ming Zuo, "Go and inquire where Jiang Lao lives now, and call to ask Jiang Lao if it is inconvenient to meet guests now?" In addition, I heard that Mr. Jiang likes to drink tea, so prepare a few boxes of good tea. ”

Su Xi wanted to say that wine was more useful than tea, but he hesitated for a while but didn't speak, and let Ming Zuo prepare the tea.

......

Mr. Jiang now lives in the old house of the Jiang family, in the southwest of Yuncheng, at the foot of the famous Qingyun Mountain, the ancient house with two entrances, behind the yard is a large bamboo forest, in front of the yard is a bluestone brick road, and then in front of a small river flowing down from the mountain, the river water is crystal clear, and the fish in it is a foot long.

Before entering the house, the car walked outside, and I felt a leisurely ancient charm.

Ling Jiuze looked at the surrounding scenery and said lightly, "It's quiet in the middle of nowhere, there is still such a place in Cloud City, this old man Jiang will really enjoy it." ”

Su Xi raised his eyebrows, this is true!

When the car stopped, Ming Zuo received a phone call, and after hanging up the phone, he told Ling Jiuze, "Tang Boyuan left here half an hour ago and didn't buy Yuhuan. ”

Ling Jiuze nodded slightly, "Go knock on the door!" ”

Ming Zuo stepped forward and knocked on the door, and soon, the wooden door was opened, and an old man in a dark gray robe appeared behind the door, looking at Su Xi at first glance, there was a kind smile in his already somewhat cloudy eyes, and he paused, and then asked Ling Jiuze, "Is it Mr. Ling?" The lord is waiting for you in the front hall, please come with me. ”

The old man is the housekeeper in the house, with gray hair, strong spirits, and a calm bearing, and he can't see that he is a subordinate at all.

Ling Jiuze was gentle and polite, "I'm disturbed!" ”

"Mr. Ling is polite, please come in!" The old man smiled, his gaze slid over Su Xi again, and then turned around and walked towards the courtyard.

As soon as you enter the door, the refreshing and simple atmosphere comes to the pavement, facing a painted wall, on both sides is a verandah, a piece of purple bamboo is planted in the middle of the yard, and a huge lotus pot is placed.
