"I've already asked someone to inquire, and the four killers who want to assassinate you are four Japanese ronins from Hirado Castle. These people have always been unorganized, and they mainly live by helping others act as temporary thugs and killers. Some of those who have committed great sins flee elsewhere. It's hard to find any clues from these people. Xu Xinsu said.

"Looks like it's time for us to visit him." Xu Xinsu groaned for a while, and suddenly a sentence came out.

Yu Ren wanted to ask who he was going to visit, but Xu Xinsu didn't say anything more, but turned straight downstairs and left!

The next day, Xu Xinsu asked people to prepare several large cars of gifts early, and then took Xu Hai, Liu Long, several important leaders of the Xu family and Yu Ren to leave the port town together to visit a distinguished guest in the county seat of Pinghu.

There were seven or eight vehicles in the long convoy, two-thirds of which were filled with gifts. It can be seen that Xu Xinsu attaches great importance to this person.

Yu Ren quietly asked Xu Hai a few times, wanting to ask who they were visiting today. But Xu Hai only replied to him, "You'll know when you arrive!" ”

Yu Ren had no choice but to put the doubt in his stomach. He secretly speculated in his heart that this person should be an important local official in Japan! Otherwise, as Xu Xinsu, how could he attach so much importance to it and bring so many gifts. But I don't know what kind of high-ranking official makes a maritime giant like Xu Xinsu welcome him like this.

The convoy traveled about ten miles before arriving at Hirado Castle.

Hirado was originally a small county town. However, in recent decades, due to the development of Chinese maritime business, it has far exceeded its original scale.

Xu Xinsu's motorcade slowed down shortly after entering the city from the south gate. Yu Ren sat in the car and looked up. You can see that the eastern half of the city is full of neat streets and alleys, and the two rows of houses are all blue brick houses with Chinese Jiangnan style. One of the large bluestone main roads. And the western half of the city, compared to this, is simply a slum.

Yu Ren was secretly surprised, he didn't expect that in Japan, he could still see a place with such a strong Chinese style.

Seeing this scene, Yu Ren quietly asked Xu Hai beside him.

"Why is there such a place here? It doesn't feel like it's in Japan, but in our Daming! ”

Xu Hai smiled and said to him, "These have only been built in the last twenty years. When I first arrived, it was a large open space, with only a few huts. Later, it was because of our Ming caravan that arrived here from Luzon that the half of the new city in front of us was built.

What do you think? Pretty! ”

Yu Ren nodded.

"The builder of this Hirado New Town is the one we're going to visit in a moment. He is definitely no stranger to you, but it is definitely the first time you have seen him. Xu Hai said with a smile.

Yu Ren was shocked in his heart, he had already vaguely guessed the identity of this person.

Xu Xinsu walked with the convoy for about half an hour, and a large courtyard appeared in front. The large courtyard walls are a bit like a castle. The high gate tower in the middle has two big words written on it: "Li Mansion"

Xu Xinsu stopped the convoy, and then sent someone to take his name card and send it in.

Soon, the closed door opened, and a middle-aged man with a smile on his face walked out. This man is in his fifties, his face is white and beardless, and he carries several majesty and luxury between his actions. Vaguely, Yu Ren seemed to see the shadow of another person on this person's face. Yu Ren suddenly confirmed the conjecture in his heart.

"The second brother is coming, there is a loss of welcome, there is a loss of welcome!" The middle-aged man said as he walked out.

Xu Xinsu hurriedly walked a few steps to catch up with the middle-aged man. "My brother has tormented my younger brother. The younger brother wanted to come to see the eldest brother as soon as the boat stopped, but he couldn't bear to be entangled by those old customers, so he had to do business things first, and then he came to see the eldest brother. Big brother is not strange! ”

The middle-aged man patted Xu Xinsu on the shoulder, "You and my own brother, how can you talk about it." ”

While speaking, he let Xu Xinsu into the courtyard door.

Then Xu Hai, Liu Long and other stewards of the Xu family also followed into the courtyard. Yu Ren walked behind everyone. Because no one in the Li Mansion knew him, no one cared about him.

At this time, Yu Ren could already confirm the conjecture in his heart. Fang Cai, who was called the eldest brother by Xu Xinsu, is not an outsider, it is Li Ying's father Li Dan, and he is also the leader of Chinese businessmen in Japan.

Li Dan let everyone into the hall, and everyone sat down in order. When he arrived at Yu Ren, he found that there were no more seats.

Seeing this, one of Xu Xinsu's subordinates hurriedly wanted to give up his seat to Yu Ren, but was held down by Yu Ren. He stood quietly behind Xu Hai and acted as his personal attendant.

Li Dan, who was sitting on the main seat, saw Yu Ren standing behind Xu Hai, and seemed to glance at it unintentionally, but did not speak.

Xu Xinsu naturally also saw the scene of Yu Ren standing behind Xu Hai without a seat, but he didn't speak either, and it seemed that he didn't see Yu Ren's existence at all.

Yu Ren was not angry. The first time he came to Li Ying's house, no one knew his identity, but he felt more comfortable. If everyone knew his identity and regarded him as the protagonist, like the stars holding the moon, he would really not be used to it.

Besides, his current relationship with Li Ying has not been recognized by both parents. His side is no problem now, his father is dead, and his only uncle has also suffered a stroke and can't speak. But Li Ying's father is still there! With such a large wealth of their Li family, Li Dan only has one daughter. Naturally, it is extremely strict with the choice of son-in-law.

It is a rare opportunity to take advantage of today's opportunity to observe his future father-in-law in secret.

Soon, the people spread the food and drinks. Yu Ren could only stand and watch others eat and drink, and he couldn't leave casually, lest Li Dan see any clues.

waited until everyone had eaten most of the banquet, and Xu Hai whispered to Yu Ren, "It's really hard for you." You should also go eat out! ”

Yu Ren wanted to stay a little longer, but he was really hungry. So he went out of the hall. However, although there were many people in the Li Mansion, no one paid attention to him. He wanted to find a random place to eat in the mansion and come back, but found that there was no place for him to eat in the entire Li Mansion.

There was no way, Yu Ren had no choice but to leave the Li Mansion and plan to go to the street to eat something.

Out of the Li family's compound, surrounded by some high-rise mansions and deep courtyards, and after walking three or four streets, Yu Ren found a place to eat.

Yu Ren casually ate two bowls of noodles at a roadside stall and returned to Li's house.

But the doorkeeper's servant would not let him in. Said they didn't know him. Yu Ren was a little annoyed, but it was inconvenient to attack. After all, this is his father-in-law's house who has not yet recognized his relatives, and if there is a trouble, everyone's faces will not look good.

If you don't enter, you won't enter. It's not a big deal anyway. There is something to discuss, Xu Xinsu went to discuss with Li Dan. He came today just to come and see them. Since you can't get in, go back! Yu Ren is still a free and easy person, he doesn't think about his identity, but he is looked down upon by a few subordinates, how annoying it is.

Descendants! If you take them too seriously, you'll be like their servants. Therefore, Yu Ren didn't think much about it, so he found a car in the city and went back to the port town first.

Let's talk about the Li Mansion. After Yu Ren left, Li Dan took the opportunity to leave the hall.

"Master, how's it going?" Jiang Fuxiang hurried up.

"I think this kid is quite patient. It's a pity that he became the son-in-law of the Xu family first. Otherwise, I might as well consider his marriage to Ying'er. Li Dan sighed.

"Master, I heard that this kid not only has no real skills, but has always been misbehaving, and likes to hook up with women from good families. Xu Xinsu married his daughter to him, and that was because he was blind to his dog's eye. What is the identity of our eldest lady, how can she be committed to marrying such a person. Jiang Fuxiang said.

Li Dan shook his head.

"You're wrong! This kid is not simple. He was at Maeda Takeo's house that day, and in the face of Mrs. Maeda's seduction, he was able to withdraw. And today I deliberately asked people to take his seat to see how he would react. Unexpectedly, he was not angry at all, and was willing to act as an attendant and watched us finish the banquet. This kind of bearing and forbearance is not something that anyone can have.

If a man wants to achieve great things, such a bearing and demeanor are indispensable. ”

"So, are we going to let him go?" Jiang Fuxiang was obviously a little unconvinced.
