Chapter 266: Seek Justice and Show Strength
Only one day after Lu An returned to Danyang, Chu Yin sent someone to bring him a letter, asking him to take a trip to Yangzhou Mansion.
"Sue so soon? Hey! ”
Lu An smiled without any rhyme.
"An Shao, shall I call the other brothers over?"
"No, isn't Jiangnan Uncle Chu's territory? Let's just go. ”
"Miss Yuyan, calculate the time, Lan'er should be back, right?
If she comes back, I will be of great use if she asks her to store the saltpeter she has bought carefully. ”
Lu An confessed and went straight to Yangzhou with Ah Da.
Yangzhou Mansion.
Yangzhou Mansion Yin was busy before and after, waiting for the distinguished guests who came to the door like a subordinate.
Chu Yin, Old Lady Chen, and Lu Dingtian arrived early, chatting in the hall, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.
However, when Lu An appeared, there was no movement in the hall.
Old Lady Chen looked at Lu An coldly, which made Lu An feel a lot cooler.
Lu Dingtian looked indifferent, as if he didn't see Lu An.
"Virtuous nephew, come and sit, sit here."
Chu Yin beckoned enthusiastically and summoned Lu An to sit down beside him.
Seeing this scene, although Old Lady Chen and Lu Dingtian were no longer interested in Lu An, it was not easy to show it again, and their faces eased slightly.
From Chu Yin's small attitude, it can be seen that Lu An's status in Chu Yin's mind is like a precious son!
Yangzhou Mansion Yin Fenggu wiped the sweat on his forehead while pouring a cup of herbal tea for the four of them, Lu An picked it up, and drank it all in one gulp.
"Uncle Chu, what's so urgent? The little nephew is busy in Danyang, you don't know, since the little nephew came back, the business has become more and more popular, and every minute is money! ”
Ahem –
Old Lady Chen and Lu Dingtian immediately coughed twice, and their faces sank again.
Can it be bad?
The salt business and porcelain of the Lu and Chen families were all affected by Lu An!
Chu Yin smiled dotingly, "Virtuous nephew, doing business is business, the most important thing is to pay attention to the body, business matters, in fact, you can leave it to the next person to be busy, on such a hot day, is it not good to stay at home honestly?" ”
"Huh!" Old Lady Chen sneered, and said in a weird manner, "What Lord Chu said is extremely true, business belongs to business, but you must at least know the rules when doing business, and it is not good for anyone to behave indiscriminately!" ”
Lu An blinked his big innocent eyes, "Is Old Lady Chen talking about me?" ”
"Yes!" Old Lady Chen snorted unceremoniously, "Little brother, what did my Chen family offend you?"
My little fourth child was ordered by the old man to collect white sea sand on Linjiang Beach, but after you got there, you didn't ask about it, not only beat Xiao'er, but also drove all the people of my Chen family away, but there is such a thing! ”
"Yes, that's the case." Lu An nodded honestly, "Chen Sishao was beaten by me, but he deserves it!" ”
"What do you say!!" When Old Lady Chen heard this, she immediately jumped up and hit the ground with her crutches, "Lord Chu, you heard it too!"
This is not an old man's random slander of his nephew!
No matter how I say it, my Chen family is also a big family, if I can't give the old man a reasonable explanation, hum! ”
Seeing this, Chu Yin hurriedly reassured with a smile, "The little nephew is stubborn, and Old Chen is angry." ”
Turning around, Chu Yin deliberately straightened his face and reprimanded, "Virtuous nephew, Old Lady Chen is the head of the Chen family, and he has always been highly respected, how can you be so rude!" ”
Lu An shrugged his shoulders, "Uncle Chu, what the little nephew said is the truth, who let that Chen Hongye have no virtue in his mouth and speak disrespectfully to me, is it just that he is allowed to scold me, and I can't fight back?"
What's more, it was he Chen Hongye who was rude first, and I taught him a little lesson.
During this time, who didn't know that the little nephew bought a large amount of white sea sand and used it to fire glassware?
In line with the idea of helping the people in the vicinity of Yangzhou to broaden a way to make money, the little nephew bought the white sea sand sent to Danyang by the people at a high price.
This move can not only give the people a little extra income, but also allow Uncle Chu to have a little more taxes, such a good thing as the best of both worlds, did the little nephew do something wrong? ”
Referring to the use of white sea sand to fire glassware, Chu Yin immediately showed a satisfied smile, "Well, this matter is indeed good, although the uncle is far away in Jiankang, but Lord Feng Gu has sent letters more than once, and the uncle is also very pleased with this." ”
Chu Yin was satisfied, but Old Lady Chen was almost so angry that she vomited blood!
This pair of uncles and nephews performed in front of him, but it seemed that his Chen family was doing something?
"Little brother!"
Old lady Chen tried her best to suppress the anger in her heart, and shouted in a deep voice, "It's your business that you want to use white sea sand to burn glassware, but the white sea sand in the Linjiang area is an ownerless thing, so if you are allowed to mine sand, our Chen family can't collect it!" ”
"Well said!" Lu An clapped his hands and praised, "Old Lady Chen also said that the white sea sand there is an ownerless thing, and anyone can collect it."
But why did your Chen family forcibly drive out the common people and prevent them from mining sand, while your Chen family took almost all of the white sea sand there for yourself! ”
Old Lady Chen sneered disdainfully, "What my Chen family fancies, do you dare to say anything about those mud-legged people!" ”
"Then ...... According to Old Lady Chen's meaning, whoever has a big fist can occupy the white sea sand there at will, right!
In this case, Lu led someone to drive Chen Hongye away, if Chen Hongye has a kind, he can bring someone to snatch it back, why bother nagging here! ”
"You !!" Old Lady Chen jumped up again, lifted the crutch and pointed at Lu An.
Seeing this, Lu An snorted coldly, "Old thing!
Lu is to give Uncle Chu face, so he calls you Mrs. Chen!
If you dare to point your finger at me again...... Ahh ”
"An Shao!" Ah Da suddenly stood beside Lu An.
"Listen, if someone points at me, kill me!"
"You dare!" Old Lady Chen almost gasped and turned her head to look at Chu Yin.
However, when he saw Ah Da's cold murderous aura, he still didn't dare to challenge Lu An after all, and let go of the crutches in his hand.
"Lord Chu!"
"My Chen family has been settling in Yangzhou for hundreds of years, and if there is no suitable reason, the old man will never move the ancestral house easily.
Now that my Chen family is sheltered by Lord Chu, the old man can also see that Lord Chu is very fond of his nephew.
However, although the old man is old, he still has a good backbone!
If Lord Chu can't handle this matter fairly, then, how will the old man do the next thing, and then Lord Chu will stop blaming the old man for being unreasonable! ”
"Yo drink! Old fellow, scare me! Lu An smiled.
"Nephew, shut up!"
Chu Yin was furious.
For the first time, Lu An saw Chu Yin angry in front of him, so he consciously restrained himself and sat back honestly.
