Chapter 170: The Storm is Coming

The next day, on the bank of the Huaijiang River, it was very lively at this time, and in the center of the riverside, a big ship was extremely luxurious. Yuan Wouji, Hua Changlong, Huang Weijian and a wealthy businessman from Xiliang Dagui leaned on the railing of a luxury ship and looked at the shore.

One of the wealthy businessmen surnamed Gao came up to Yuan Wuji and arched his hand and said, "Lord Yuan, I heard that Lan Qianqian, who is known as the No. 1 Oiran in Huaijiang today, will also participate in this grand event, I don't know if it's true or not?"

Yuan Wuji didn't speak, and Hua Changlong, who was standing on the side, opened his mouth and said: "Master Gao, our family has always been devoted to Miss Lan Qianqian, and we are unswerving, today's event is actually a birthday banquet specially prepared by my family for Lan Qianqian, the first Oiran in Huaijiang, I just hope to win the favor of Miss Lan Qianqian!

Hua Changlong said in a loud voice, obviously not just talking to this wealthy businessman surnamed Gao, his purpose was to let everyone who participated in the grand event hear.

Yuan Wuji's face was gentle, and he said slowly: "Actually, Hua Shiyan's words have somewhat elevated the official, the official does favor the Huaijiang Oiran Lan Qianqian, but Miss Lan is not completely ignoring the official, the official intends to achieve a good relationship, and I ask you friends to support me!"

As soon as Yuan Wuji spoke, the officials and nobles in Xiliang City applauded, but everyone knew in their hearts that Lord Yuan already had a wife and six concubines in his family, and he had already achieved so many good fortunes.

However, Yuan Wou-Ki is Yuan Wou-Ki after all, since he is the lord of a city in Xiliang City, who dares to offend in Xiliang City, who is called a person with high power, naturally he can stammer, and if he can't stammer, don't offend!

The people who participated in the event held this mentality, and naturally there were no negative remarks. Some said that Yuan Wuji did not use his official position to oppress people, but instead convinced people with virtue, which is really a good example of an official! Some people also said that Lan Qianqian was so virtuous, and it was already a great honor to be worthy of such a favor as Lord Yuan......

Everyone talked about it, but there was no doubt about one thing, all of them were praising Yuan Wuji, but in the mouths of these people, Lan Qianqian seemed to have become a sassy hoof who didn't know Jin Xiangyu and didn't know how to give face.

Yuan Wuji listened to everyone's chatter, and glanced at Hua Changlong, both of them laughed in unison, it seemed that everything was in place, and only the east wind was owed.

Hua Changlong glanced at the riverside again, looked up at the sky again, and said in a low voice: "My lord, Lan Qianqian hasn't come yet, will this little sassy hoof not come today!"

Yuan Wuji frowned slightly, in fact, he was also a little worried, everything was already prepared today, if the person concerned didn't show up, wouldn't all the effort be a lot of effort?

However, just when Yuan Wuji and Hua Changlong were a little worried, there was a sudden commotion on the bank of the Huaijiang River, and everyone on the bed followed the prestige, only to see a big red sedan chair settled by the river, the maid Xiaocui slowly opened the sedan curtain and waited on the side, and Lan Qianqian slowly stepped out of the sedan chair.

The girl out of the sedan chair is like a hibiscus out of the water, everyone holds their breath, it is really the best in the world, such a look, such a temperament, everyone has an idea in their hearts at the same time, this woman should only be in heaven, how many times will I see it in the world!

If Dan Xuan was also present, he would definitely think, such a woman can make you dirt buns look like this, then if it was Fu Hanyao who walked out of the sedan chair, wouldn't your eyes be falling to the ground!

Of course, Dan Xuan is not here, at this time Dan Xuan is buying piccolo in the downtown area, he originally wanted to buy a decent robe, but passing by this musical instrument store, Dan Xuan unconsciously walked in, but he didn't expect that the musical instruments inside were still very complete.

Dan Xuan has always wanted to buy a piccolo and put it by his side, but he always has light and ideas, but he has no action. Passing by the musical instrument store this time, Dan Xuan stepped in, and the dazzling array of various musical instruments really made Dan Xuan dizzy.

The owner of the musical instrument shop was a kind old businessman, and as soon as he saw Dan Xuan coming in, he immediately greeted him, and asked with a smile: "This son, I don't know what musical instrument you want to buy?"

Dan Xuan looked around and said slowly, "I don't know if the boss has piccolos to sell here?"

The owner of the musical instrument shop pondered slightly and said, "There is a piccolo, please come with me!"

The owner of the musical instrument shop brought Dan Xuan to the counter selling piccolo, and saw dozens of piccolos on the wooden counter. Dan Xuan was surprised in his heart, he didn't expect that there would be such a complete variety of musical instrument shops within the scope of Xiliang City.

The boss saw Dan Xuan stunned, and said with a smile: "This son, we have all kinds of well-known piccolo varieties in our store, I don't know which one the son wants?"

Dan Xuan was slightly stunned, thought for a moment, and said, "Boss, is there a 'Kuangyun Flute' from Qizhou here?"

"Kuangyun flute?" The owner of the musical instrument shop groaned slightly, and said: "The son knows at a glance that he is a musical instrument expert, the old man has been engaged in the musical instrument business for so many years, and he also knows a lot about the piccolo, although the Kuangyun flute produced in Qizhou is not well-known in the musical instrument industry, but it is made of a material called 'Kuang Bamboo' that is abundant in Qizhou, this kind of bamboo is tough enough, and the bamboo wall is thin, in fact, it is the best material for making piccolo!

The owner of the musical instrument shop talked eloquently, the materials, production technology, timbre, and differences of all kinds of piccolo, and the owner of the musical instrument store was like a few treasures, and Dan Xuan admired it in his heart.

Dan Xuan arched his hand slightly, and said: "The boss is really Bai Xiaosheng in the musical instrument world, compared to the boss, I am afraid that I can only be regarded as a little bit of knowledge!"

However, the owner of the musical instrument shop waved his hand and said: "Childe, the old man has been in the musical instrument business for decades, and there are many things in his hands, so he can naturally summarize some rules!

Dan Xuan smiled slightly, but he was not polite, and asked, "Then I wonder if you have a cloud flute here, boss?"

The boss hurriedly patted his head and said: "Look at my memory, patronizing it here, the child's luck is good, there is a Kuangyun flute in the small shop to be sold, but it was put on consignment by a young lady two months ago, saying that the old man has passed away, and keeping it will increase the miss!"

"Oh, I don't know which family that young lady is, but she also understands the truth that mountains and rivers are hard to find!" Dan Xuan nodded and praised.

The boss shook his head and said, "That young lady was born extremely beautiful, but the sound of the flute is even more beautiful, that young lady at that time in order to verify the integrity of the flute for the old man, once played a tune in public, that melodious tune, the old man has only heard in his life! It is really a rare good song in heaven!"

Dan Xuan nodded, seeing the musical instrument shop owner so intoxicated, Dan Xuan was also very curious, and couldn't help but really want to see the flute and listen to that tune.

Just as Dan Xuan was thinking, the boss took out a pink piccolo from the consignment counter on the side, handed it to Dan Xuan, and said, "Childe, please see, it's this flute!"

Dan Xuan took the piccolo, as soon as he put it in his hand, Dan Xuan couldn't help but praise it in his heart! This is indeed a good flute, the material is high-quality, the workmanship is exquisite, and there is a jade pendant tied to one end of the flute, which is the engraved pattern of the mandarin duck playing in the water. With a pink flute body and a pendant engraved with a mandarin duck, this flute is clearly a woman's belongings.

"What a flute! What a flute!" Dan Xuan didn't stop talking for the time being.

The owner of the musical instrument shop also nodded slightly, and continued: "Such a peerless beauty, since she claims that the deceased has passed away, and the music played is mostly poignant, it really makes the listener's heart ache!"

Dan Xuan frowned slightly, and suddenly asked, "I don't know what kind of music the young lady played?"

The owner of the musical instrument shop made a look of surprise, slapped his thigh, and said: "Look at the old man's memory, I remember that the old man once asked the young lady for the music score, but where did the music score go? The old man's memory is indeed worse day by day!"

Seeing the sad face of the owner of the musical instrument shop, Dan Xuan comforted: "Boss don't mind, birth, old age, sickness and death are natural laws, no matter when you need to have a normal heart, boss, you have lived for so nine, you must be better than me A teenager can see clearly!"

The owner of the musical instrument shop glanced at Dan Xuan appreciatively, nodded and said, "I think I have lived for a full seventy years, and I am not as good as a teenager, alas, I am really ashamed!"

Dan Xuan smiled slightly, but changed the topic and said, "Boss, I don't know how much the consignor bid for this flute?"

The owner of the musical instrument shop showed a look of confusion, and after looking at the price marked on the counter, he suddenly said: "That young lady said that if you are destined to know the flute, ten taels of silver is enough, if you are a dignitary who does not understand the rhythm of music and is only for showmanship, you will not sell it for a thousand dollars!"

"What a spirit!" Dan Xuan couldn't help but exclaim: "This woman is really a heroine, with such a bearing, I am afraid that many men in this world will be ashamed of themselves!"

The owner of the musical instrument shop also felt the same way, and said: "Childe must be a destined person who understands the piano, this flute will be sold to Childe for ten taels of silver, as for the old man's storage fee, I also feel that I am very close to Childe, and this storage fee is also free!"

Dan Xuan admired in his heart when he heard this, the woman was so atmospheric, but he didn't know that this musical instrument shop owner was actually more upright, this flute obviously couldn't be sold for a thousand gold, but it was more than enough to buy a hundred taels of silver. However, it is very rare that this old man really set the price at the price set by the depositor, without any deception and private possession.

Dan Xuan praised slightly: "The boss is not deceived when he does business, which is admirable!"

The owner of the musical instrument shop shook his head and said: "Now the old man has half of his body in the ground, a thousand mansions, only six feet to sleep at night, a family fortune, and no more than three meals a day! Money is just something outside the body, life does not bring it, death does not take it away, it is nothing more than a tool on which life depends, it is enough, why bother to take it seriously!"

"Okay! Well said!" Dan Xuan couldn't help but applaud, he didn't expect that such an ordinary old businessman in a musical instrument shop could say such a thing, although he had no power or wealth, but he didn't know how much stronger than those powerful and wealthy people!
