"After so many years in the rivers and lakes,"

Li Fengheng stared at the lonely waning moon, and his tone paused slightly,

"From the time I sold fish for a living, I was not famous, and then I founded the Xuande Hotel, which was slightly famous, and then I founded Hengtai Jewelry, which became famous, and finally to the current 'Si Li Commercial Company', which is famous in all directions."

"This journey has been rough and bumpy, with ups and downs."

"But..."

"But it ended well. There are so many peers, and I am the only one who has made it to the end, which can be regarded as an achievement, right? ”

After a rhetorical question.

Li Fengheng suddenly burst out laughing, and his laughter was full of self-deprecation.

He understood.

Even if he takes business to the top of the ages, to the rich and rival countries, to the point that he can even influence most of the empire by himself, but so what?

still won't get the recognition of his father, and he won't get a trace of praise from the other party.

This bumpy road is coming.

If he hadn't wanted to get his father's last affirmative words, I'm afraid he would have been unable to hold on and would have collapsed halfway.

That's why.

He hadn't been home for ten years since he came out.

If he hadn't felt homesick once in the past ten years, it would be impossible, and he would just be deceiving himself.

Whenever he looked up at the waning moon.

He could no longer suppress the loneliness in his heart and the deep longing.

People are always homesick.

It is precisely because of this that there is a saying and attention to the roots of fallen leaves.

He Li Fengheng is now considered famous, and naturally he wants to return to his hometown, and then in a burst of laughter and praise, this life slowly came to an end.

That's exactly what happened.

Only then did he think of finding the new elder of the Martial Spirit Palace, wanting to get the elder's kindness or promise.

It is even better to invite the elder to come home with him. Then put on a banquet and invite a group of nobles and high-ranking officials to come to the banquet, so as to achieve the effect of shocking the crowd.

As long as there is such a strong deterrence, even if the Li family is not an official in the future, those people must be cautious and cautious, and dare not make a move against the Li family.

After all, if a titled powerhouse wants to kill a person or destroy a family, who can stop him in this world?

No one would want to be an enemy of such a terrifying person.

And so it goes.

It will definitely ensure that his Li family will be prosperous for at least a hundred years.

And there is.

If his father knew that he had the friendship of a Title Douluo powerhouse, what would his father's expression be?

Will definitely praise him!

Even the clansmen will welcome his return in points, and even in the history of the clan, there will be a strong stroke of his strength.

He will leave a name in the history of the clan!

This is the real purpose of Li Fengheng's trip!!

Although he is not a marquis, he is also dedicated to the sake of the family, abandoning his official position and entering business, but also wants to contribute to the development of the family in the future.

After all, no matter how greedy an official is, how much money can he embezzle?

A family that has only power and no money is destined to not last long.

A family that only has money and no power is destined to not last long.

So.

Li Fengheng has always adhered to a concept, officials and businessmen cannot be separated, virtual parallelism, using officials to deceive people, creating opportunities, and using money to open gaps, both of which are indispensable.

That's one of the reasons why he left home in the first place.

It's all there.

It's all for the family!

……

The moonlight is hazy.

Summer nights are not quiet.

Unknown insects and animals play together to play a hymn to summer.

Although this hymn gives people the feeling of being noisy, only when this song appears, people will realize that it is a hot summer day.

"Mother, Brother Mubai shouldn't be a bad guy, right?"

Li Mubai's home.

Xiao Yu'er and Zhao Shuran, lying on the bed in the other bedroom, listening to the sound of a muffled drum coming from next door, Xiao Yu'er was in Zhao Shuran's arms, suddenly raised her head, looked at Zhao Shuran with a serious face and asked.

"Of course not, your brother Mubai is the kindest person."

Zhao Shuran's cheeks were slightly red, and there was a hint of trembling in her tone.

She patted Xiao Yu'er on the back in her arms and continued:

"If it weren't for your brother Mubai, my mother wouldn't know what to do now. There is a high probability that our mother and daughter will leave the Wuhun Hall and return to the previous poor life. ”

Hear here.

Xiao Yu'er's slightly squinted eyes suddenly sobered up, and a trace of fear came out of them.

Apparently.

She was afraid of the poor life that Zhao Shuran said.

"Don't be afraid, my mother won't let you suffer anymore."

As if feeling the strangeness of Xiao Yu'er's body, Zhao Shuran's tone suddenly said with extremely gentle relief.

Listening to her mother's relief, Xiao Yuer also drilled into Zhao Shuran's arms, and her little hands to protect Zhao Shuran were tighter.

Feeling the situation in her arms, Zhao Shuran's expression couldn't help but darken.

At the beginning, this little girl followed her, and she really suffered too much.

Before, I never came to Wuhun City again.

At that time, she and the little girl were still in a village in the Heaven Dou Empire. The village was not prosperous, it was a very remote place, and there was no communication with each other, so it was very poor.

She and Xiao Yu'er often eat the last meal, but there is no next meal, and they can eat two meals a day, which is a very good life. And when winter came, the mother and daughter were shivering from the cold because they did not have a padded jacket for the winter, and their hands and feet were covered with frostbite.

It was also in this small village that Zhao Shuran learned how to make tofu, and then she resolutely left the small village and came out to seek life.

Because.

If she insisted on staying there, she wouldn't survive the next winter.

Thinking of the past, Zhao Shuran couldn't help but sigh from afar.

Fortunately, these sufferings are now far away from them, and she has the care to rely on her own hands, and she will not let such a life happen in front of the eyes of the two of them again.

And in Zhao Shuran's arms, Xiao Yu'er, who finally settled down, suddenly muttered and asked:

"Mother, Brother Mu Bai is a good person, but why do you say he beat Sister Xiaoqian? Sister Xiaoqian has been crying out bitterly from before to now, is there something wrong with her that she will be punished? ”

Hearing this, Zhao Shuran was directly tired.

Fortunately, the room was so dark that I couldn't see her blush.

For Xiao Yu'er's question, she didn't know how to answer for a while. No matter how this question is answered, it doesn't seem to be very good.

She knows that children's curiosity is the most important. So after thinking about it, I decided to find a reason to go to Tanghu:

"This is a matter between adults, your brother Mubai is not beating Sister Xiaoqian."

Xiao Yu'er curled up, snail in Zhao Shuran's arms, listening to the other party's explanation, Xiao Yu'er couldn't help but ask Tian Tian again:

"Then, why does Sister Xiaoqian cry out in pain? I think she's so pitiful. ”

Zhao Shuran's already red face became even more red and hot after hearing Xiao Yu'er's words.

She was very glad that it was only night, otherwise, Xiao Yu'er would definitely break the casserole again and ask her why her face was so red, if she was sick with a fever, and she would really not be able to answer this question at that time.

As for Xiao Yu'er's question, she really wanted to answer, it was not pity, it was love.

Merely.

This answer is definitely no.

"Yu'er doesn't have to sympathize with Sister Xiaoqian."

After thinking about it for a long time, Zhao Shuran could only answer like this.

"Why? Listen, Sister Xiaoqian must be in pain now, shouldn't she be sympathetic? ”

In the dark night, Xiao Yu'er opened her eyes wide, and her tone was full of doubts.

"That's not a scream of pain,"

Xiao Yuer just wanted to ask why, but was interrupted by Zhao Shuran taking the first step:

"Yu'er, don't ask so much, these are all adult things, and you'll know when you grow up."

"Oh."

Xiao Yu'er, who just wanted to ask a question, could only answer in a whisper, and then stopped talking, but the doubts in her heart did not decrease a bit.

Feeling that Xiao Yu'er was settled, Zhao Shuran took a deep breath and suppressed the heat in her heart. It's just that this feeling rose again with the sound next door, and became more violent.

The other side.

"Master, you... Sister Zhao, they're still next door. ”

Xiao Qian's eyes were blurred, she was soft on the bed, and her face was red.

"Don't worry, this room is well insulated."

Li Mubai smiled, and then pounced like a tiger again, towards Xiao Qian, who was powerless to resist and collapsed on the bed.

And what Li Mubai didn't know was.

At the bottom of the wall separating the two rooms, a hole in the wall the size of a bamboo tube appeared in the corner.

Sleepless nights.

The morning star retreated.

Suddenly, a golden rooster crowed, piercing the silent sky, and the night began to fade gradually.

A touch of fish belly white in the east hangs in the sky.

A new day has arrived...

In the sky above Wuhun City, the smoke curls and sways slowly with the breeze, like a light white veil, fluttering in the wind.

"The generous gift I asked you to prepare, are you ready?"

In the mansion.

Li Fengheng was in good spirits, and asked with full of energy, a sturdy man standing in front of him.

"Back to the third master, it's ready."

The sturdy man looked awe-inspired, and replied respectfully.

"Okay, bring the stuff over. This matter is very important, these generous gifts, I look at them one by one, carefully palmed the eyes, and there is no room for a single mistake. ”

Li Fengheng nodded.

"Yes."

The sturdy man answered, and then immediately turned away.

Soon.

He led a group of people carrying various boxes, or delicate boxes in their hands, to Li Fengheng.

"Third master, this is a generous gift to prepare. Shared the income of the comptoir for a year and a half. Detailed accounts, and the king steward will deliver them to you. Please take a look at it. ”

The hardcover man said, leaning sideways, raising one hand flat, and issuing an invitation.

Li Fengheng nodded, and then walked to these boxes.

He casually opened a large wooden box, and a golden flash of light immediately exploded from it, making people see a flower.

Li Fengheng's eyes narrowed slightly, and then he looked at the neatly arranged gold coins in the box.

This box was lifted by two people, it was one meter wide and half a meter high, and the gold coins inside were stacked on top of each other, filling all the space in the box, leaving no gaps.

"Third master, in this box, there are 10,000 gold coins."

The sturdy man followed behind Li Fengheng, with a hint of nervousness on his face, and explained loudly.

"It's a simple gift."

Li Fengheng nodded and affirmed the gold coins in this box.

Looked at.

The sturdy man couldn't help but look relieved, but then, his heart was lifted again, because his boss, Li Fengheng, had already stepped in front of the next box.

With a squeak.

Li Fengheng opened the second big red wooden box.

This time, to the point where there was no golden light overflowing, in the box, lying was a carp statue of nearly one meter, the statue was green all over, the color was transparent, it was obviously an excellent jadeite, and the value was extraordinary!

"Third master, this is the carp jumping over the dragon gate, symbolizing the beautiful meaning of turning a fish into a dragon."

The sound of the strong man sounded behind him again, but Li Fengheng didn't move, just stood quietly in place, stopping to watch.

Long.

Just as cold sweat began to break out on the forehead of the strong man, Li Fengheng showed a smile on his face, and nodded with great satisfaction:

"It's a good gift, it's done with care."

After receiving the compliment, the sturdy man was overjoyed.

Li Fengheng rarely praises people, and once he praises them, all of them are people who will be promoted and raised quickly.

"Xie Sanye compliments."

The sturdy man suppressed his joy and hurriedly bowed down to thank him.

And at the moment.

The people around who were carrying boxes, or holding treasure boxes in their hands, looked at the faces of the sturdy men, and they all showed a deep look of envy.

Followed by.

Li Fengheng came to the third big box.

As he opened it, the contents of the box were also revealed.

It contained a snow-white pearl the size of an egg, and in the morning light of breakfast, a silver-white treasure light was flowing on it, which looked very luxurious.

"Third master, this box of pearls is a specialty of the East China Sea, and the price of each one is worth a thousand gold. From the mouths of some platinum bishops, his subordinates heard that there was a woman in the family of the Ten Elders, so he specially prepared this thing. ”

The sturdy man's expression became nervous again.

Because this box of pearls is worth too much, it accounts for half of the value of all the generous gifts combined.

He was also very worried about whether he was too extravagant to do so, which caused Li Fengheng's dissatisfaction.

"Good, very good!"

Mended.

In the next second, Li Fengheng laughed heartily and praised endlessly.

"You're doing a great job!"

Li Fengheng turned his head and looked at the sturdy man with a respectful expression on his face.

"You have completed this task very well, and you are very meticulous in your work, the treasury of the trading house still lacks a guard, if you don't dislike it, you will go there to work in the future."

Li Fengheng said with a smile, his eyes full of appreciation.

"Don't dislike, don't dislike, thank you for your love."

The sturdy man was stunned for a second, and then replied with a grateful face.

Warehouse caretaker, this is no ordinary position.

How can ordinary subordinates be qualified to work in this place?

Only Li Fengheng's new person is qualified to work here, which means that he has won Li Fengheng's trust, and it also means that in the future, as long as he does not make mistakes, he will no longer have to worry about money!

The sturdy man sighed in his heart.

He didn't dare to be sloppy in his work on weekdays, but he didn't get the opportunity to be promoted.

I didn't expect that.

Just prepared a gift for a big man, and he won the trust of the third master.
