Chapter 142: The New Master
The new grandfather
Yan Kuanji invited another drink, and only then did he find out from his friend where Miss Tian lived.
He brought a gift to the door, and there was no movement for a long time.
Yan Da: "Young master, there is no one in the house. ”
Yan Kuanji looked up at the sky, "Where did you go so early?" ”
He had just come out of breakfast when he pounced.
There is no one in this mansion, and this Tian girl is out of nowhere.
Yan Da muttered a few words, and Yan Kuanji snapped and closed the fan, "Okay, go find someone to ask." ”
Yan Da knocked on the house next to him, and there was an old woman inside, looking at them vigilantly, "Who are you looking for?" ”
"Is there a girl surnamed Tian in that family next to you?" Yan Da handed over a piece of broken silver.
The old woman pushed his hand away, "I don't know, they can't say a few words when they go out early and return late." ”
Yan Da stepped aside, and the courtyard door closed.
Yan Kuanji: "Forget it, let's come back in the evening." She's got to go back to sleep! ”
Tian Yunyun was already busy in the shop at this time.
Recently, some people have tried to steal her dim sum, but no one can copy the steamed cake.
The cooks were also more energetic, and they had to buy and try them every day.
After eating, I made something that even dogs hated.
Yan Kuanji thought to himself, you are greedy!
finally waited until it was dark, Yan Kuanji waved his hand, "Let's go!" ”
Yan Da and Yan Xi both followed him to the courtyard where Tian Yunyun lived.
I waited for an hour and didn't see a single figure.
Yan Xi squatted aside and muttered, "Young Master, will people have already returned?" ”
Yan Da rolled his eyes, "You didn't see the door lock, and there was no light inside?" ”
There is a gap between the two wooden doors, so you can see it as long as you have eyes.
Yan Kuanji moved his legs, and simply walked around, his legs were sore.
He thought to himself, isn't it good to drink tea at home? Blowing the wind outside.
Yan Da said to go to the intersection in front of him to have a look, anyway, Liangdu is so big, he can meet sooner or later, but he forgot, they haven't seen Miss Tian at all.
Even if passers-by see it, they don't know.
Suddenly the sound of horses' hooves sounded in the quiet street.
Da-da-da-da.
A horse soon came in front of him, and a tall man dismounted from the horse.
He glanced at Yan Kuanji and Yan Xi at the door, "Who are you?" ”
Yan Xi rolled his eyes, "Can you handle it?" ”
Yan Kuanji scolded: "Shut up! ”
He hugged his fist at Tang Qibai, "This brother, we are waiting for someone here." ”
Tang Qibai chuckled, "Who are you waiting for?" ”
Yan Kuanji took the handle of the fan and hugged his fists: "Could it be that you live here, do you know a Tian girl?" ”
The horse spun impatiently in place.
Tang Qibai patted the horse's back, turned around and said, "It's so late, you can come back another day!" ”
Yan Kuanji watched Tang Qibai walk up the steps, and asked happily, "Can you tell me a story?" We've been here a few times without meeting anyone. ”
Tang Qibai: "Hmm." ”
He walked into the courtyard and closed the door.
Yan Kuanji just glanced inside, it was indeed pitch black, and said to Yan Xi: "Go!" ”
Yan Xi muttered: "Such a big shelf, could it be a relative of the emperor!" ”
Yan Kuanji knocked Yan Xi's head with a fan, "You are becoming more and more unruly." ”
The two walked to the front of a street, Yan Xi was carrying a lantern, and when he heard footsteps in front of him, he thought it was Yan Xi.
"Come back quickly, the young master said he was leaving."
He held up the lantern and shone it and saw two people.
A woman and a young girl, who was so good-looking, couldn't help but look at it twice.
Yan Kuanji was stunned when he saw Tian Yunyun.
The eldest lady pulled Tian Yunyun and strode forward, thinking that it was fortunately not too far from home.
These two disciples were too unruly, staring at Miss Tian.
Tian Yunyun thought to herself, what did the fool Yan come to do with her? His family runs a restaurant, is it to buy a recipe?
Yan Kuanji looked at Tian Yunyun's back blankly.
"Young Master!"
Yan Xi called out a few times and the young master didn't respond, he leaned over and shouted, "Young master!" ”
Yan Kuanji was taken aback by him and took a step back, "What's your name?" ”
Yan Xi: "I saw you in a daze, thinking that your soul was gone." ”
Yan Dagang came over and heard that his soul was hooked away, and rolled his eyes at Yan Xi, "Be quiet, you are teasing the girl at will." ”
This is placed in the big family of Jindu, and you will be beaten.
Yan Xi didn't care, "Where did you come from this small place, girl." ”
Yan Kuanji suddenly said: "You say, will she be Miss Tian?" ”
Yan Xi: "Cut." ”
Yan Da: "This girl is at most fifteen years old, can she have that kind of ability?" ”
Besides, this is in Liangdu, unlike Jindu, where the daughters of large families have been cultivated since childhood.
Yan Kuanji also felt that it was not, he glanced at Yan Xi, "You don't have to come with me tomorrow." ”
Yan Da: Yes! The bad is in that mouth, and there is no cover.
Yan Xi pursed his mouth, "Young master, the little one doesn't dare." ”
……
Tian Yunyun listened to Yan Kuanji's voice and gradually moved away, and she saw a light lit in a room, "Your Highness is back?" ”
The eldest lady closed the door, only then did she notice and nodded, "Girl, you go wash first, I'll take a look." ”
Tian Yunyun knew in her heart that she was going to tell Tang Qibai what had happened in the past few days.
Dian went to the kitchen, there was still a fire in the stove and hot water in the pot.
Tian Yunyun went back to the house to get her clothes, and heard Tang Qibai's voice talking from the house.
"There were two not-so-serious men waiting for someone at the door," he said. ”
The eldest lady's face was a little bad: "I met when the girl and I came back, and the two of them stared at Miss Tian." ”
Tang Qibai: "Pay attention next time you go out, don't be taken advantage of by the bad guys, the situation in Liangdu is not stable yet." ”
The new grandfather will probably arrive tomorrow, so Tang Qibai rushed back today.
In the end, he is a general stationed in Liangdu, and he can't let people grasp the handle, and he was at peace with the master before, and this new master may be able to say.
The next day, Tang Qibai went to the barracks early in the morning.
At noon, the soldier hurriedly announced, "The new master has arrived." ”
Tang Qibai was wearing armor today, he held his red tasseled hat on his chest, and said, "Let's go, go and greet the new master." ”
The group stood at the gate of the city, and after a while saw a carriage coming.
A lean man came down from the carriage, he was so ordinary-looking that he couldn't find it in the crowd.
Tang Qibai: "Is the person who came the new master?" ”
The lean man touched his beard, "It's down there, it must be His Royal Highness King Jing?" ”
Tang Qibai smiled and nodded, "Master, please!" ”
The new grandfather and Tang Qibai walked into the city and looked at the surrounding scenery and people, and everyone was also looking at them.
After walking a little in the city, the grandfather said that the journey was too hard and he wanted to go back to rest.
Tang Qibai: "I have prepared wine and food in the Rare Pavilion. ”
Master: "It's easy to say." ”
The two parted on the street, Tang Qibai went to the barracks, and the grandfather returned to the mansion.
The grandfather looked at the county government first, and the ornaments were very good, all of them were ninety percent new.
I thought that this place was a fat place, and I could see it by looking at the layout of the government.
He sat on the Taishi's chair and saw a person walking in at the door, dressed as a master.
The master bent down and clenched his fists respectfully: "The master is looking for a subordinate?" ”
The master nodded and sat up straight, "Tell me about the situation in Liangdu?" ”
Master: "The Liangdu army is under the control of King Jing, and the others are under the control of the master. ”
The master obviously didn't want to listen to this interrupt him, "What is the way to get money in Liangdu?" ”
The master was stunned for a moment, but quickly came back to his senses, and lowered his head, "Taxes, you can also buy land." ”
The grandfather touched his lips, "I heard that there is a dim sum shop on the most prosperous street, and the business is very good, and a little tax is charged, they should have no opinion!" ”
The master chuckled in his heart, and persuaded him with good words, "Master, it's better not to!" ”
The master snorted coldly and waved his hand impatiently, "I'm still afraid that she will be a little girl from outside?" Let's go down! ”
Seeing that the master couldn't move, he had to retreat, thinking that he wouldn't be able to sit for long.
The master obviously didn't listen to his words, "I am a person from the Son of Heaven, who dares not to take this master in his eyes in this cool capital or even Jindu?" ”
He immediately called for a notice to be put up, and all the shops in the most prosperous street were taxed, and the first thing was to repair the street.
A merchant saw the notice and ran to the fat merchant's house, and in a few moments all the shops knew about the tax.
came to the door of the county government to ask, this grandfather has already gone to the banquet.
The master had no choice but to come forward to explain: "The new official has three fires, and it will be fine after a while." ”
"You say it lightly? Originally, this street had the most taxes, and if it was added, it would go out of business. ”
The merchant clapped his left hand on his right, apparently already angry.
"That's right! This is clearly trying to drive us away! ”
"Let's go, I can't bear it anyway."
The master looked at the crowd that dispersed, shook his head, and said in his heart that the master listened to his persuasion, and only listened to half of it.
He snorted coldly, his appetite was so big, it was true that all these snowflakes and silver could reach his pocket, and he threw down his sleeves and left.
Rare Pavilion
Tang Qibai welcomed the new master in, smiled and stretched out his hand to signal him to go upstairs.
The master smiled, "How embarrassing this is, it's a waste of money." ”
Tang Qibai: "The master is too polite." ”
I basically determined that the new grandfather was the person of the dog emperor, and as soon as he came up, he would increase the tax burden, and it was his money bag when it was cold?
After drinking a little wine, the new master was a little drunk.
casually mentioned the dim sum shop with the best business, "I heard that the boss is a girl's family, how can she have those skills in a girl's family, it is better to marry early and enjoy Qingfu." ”
Tang Qibai took a sip of wine and smiled without saying a word, "This lifelong event should be decided by the parents." ”
The grandfather laughed dryly, "That's." ”
After taking a bite of the dish, he casually mentioned the tax increase, "What does Your Highness think?" ”
Tang Qibai: "I don't understand this!" ”
The new master thought that he didn't want to meddle in things, and laughed happily, this King Jing was quite good.
His wishful thinking didn't last long.
That night, several shops changed hands, and the merchants sold their shop rolls and took them away.
The original eight businessmen were all at once, and only three remained.
The goatee-bearded merchant was in a hurry and found the fat merchant, "What should I do?" If you don't ask someone to tell King Jing, tell me about it. ”
In their opinion, the only one who can compete with the new master is His Royal Highness King Jing, and they feel that King Jing is also a little pleasing to the eye.
At least never trouble them before.
Tian Yunyun heard the fat businessman explain his intentions and felt that the opportunity had come.
It's a good opportunity for King Jing to control Liangdu, "It's better to set up a chamber of commerce." ”
