Chapter 21: The Great Gift

The guy laughed:

"In Shimoda, it's really not a buddy, it's the owner of this Huiyuan Building. ”

After being slightly stunned, he laughed and said:

"But I was abrupt, I didn't expect Tian Dongjia to really have a heart. ”

Lin Fengjin only said that he was recognized by an acquaintance when he came in, so he didn't think much about it, but he didn't expect this Tian Fang to smile very dryly:

"Yes, I heard that after Lin Gongzi returned to Beijing, I sent someone to wait in front of the house every day, and finally I didn't miss out on Gongzi, the jasper milk wine is fine, but this stuffed foie gras is to be made with fresh foie gras in an hour, otherwise, the taste will be greatly reduced, how can it be taken out to entertain guests." ”

After listening to Tian Fang's words, Lin Fengjin already knew that this matter should not be so simple, so he sat down, slowly poured himself a glass of wine, and then said lightly:

"Speaking of which, Tian Dongjia has gone through so much trouble, it must have taught me something. ”

Tian Fang's face showed a wry smile and said:

"I really can't do anything about it, Childe, if you see the head and the tail, and you have never seen outsiders, so you can only think of some partial methods, I can't hide it, in addition to having an arrangement here, I am also planning to buy a Lin Fu family's shop for 500,000 taels of silver, so as to attract Lin Gongzi's attention, fortunately, God finally opened his eyes to me once, so that my arrangement has a little effect. ”

After Lin Fengjin listened, his heart was already full of doubts, this Tian Fang was so painstakingly calculated, so the plot behind it must be big, but who is Lin Fengjin? In front of Lu Yu, he can also brush his sleeves away, this point is still there in the city government, after listening to Tian Fang's words, he just nodded slightly, and said after a while:

"Now I'm here. You've also talked to me, so you can talk about anything. ”

Tian Fang looked around, and then went out to knock, Lin Feng was sharp, and immediately heard the footsteps of several people scattered, it should have started to clear the field and then guard around, at this time Tian Fang suddenly gritted his teeth, and then knelt down all of a sudden, and said in a wailing voice:

"Ask Lin Gongzi to save my life!"

Faced with Tian Fang's sudden low posture, Lin Fengjin was also taken aback. Immediately frowned:

"What are you doing, and how can I save your life?"

After Tian Fang knelt down, as if he had untied the knot in his heart, after taking the first step, the next thing was not so difficult, and he took a deep breath and said:

"The ancestor of the villain once saved an immortal, that is, he gave a spirit bead, saying that if he put it on the shrine from time to time to keep it warm, then he could pray sincerely at a critical time. There must be a response, but it can only be used three times. This spirit bead has been passed down for more than 200 years, and it has indeed been used twice during this period, which really points out the direction. So that the whole family was spared from the catastrophe, and the family began to prosper and grow. ”

"I didn't expect that the fire will cook oil, and the prosperity will decline, but. Just when the villain's family reached its peak, something big suddenly happened, and it was the time to cover the nest. Although the villain is not in the main family, it is considered a foreign manpower, but it is estimated that the family tree will be found in the next few days, that is when my whole family died, so there is no way, I can only beg for that spirit bead, and the result is a very clear display on the spirit bead, saying that it is the whole world, there are many people who can protect my family, but they are far from water can not quench the thirst, in this Ye capital, there is only Lin Gongzi you. ”

Lin Fengjin sneered in his heart, he only felt that the person in front of him was really a little mentally retarded, and he actually made up a story like this, really thinking that he was a three-year-old child?

That Tian Fang called out anxiously behind him, but where could he catch up with Lin Fengjin's body? When he chased to the window, he didn't even see a figure!

After Lin Fengjin encountered this incident, he also had vigilance, so he ordered him to be careful and vigilant, especially when someone was staring at him secretly, a lot of money would rather not be earned, and he could not show his flaws.

And the Lin family is not an ordinary grain merchant family now, even if Lu Yu wants to move the Lin family, he must weigh it carefully, because the Lin family dragged the Fu family and the Zuo family together by means of money and marriage, and the core interests of the three families have been combined together, almost unbreakable, and at the same time, the grassland trade monopolized by the Lin family and the sea trade transported by Wu Zuocheng are not eating alone, at least they are deliberately releasing forty percent of the benefits.

This free forty percent of the interests have attracted a large number of forces to join, so in addition to the core alliance, there is also a large number of amazing forces to form a loose alliance, although this alliance is completely dependent on economic interests to maintain, but because the scope of influence is extremely large, the energy involved is extremely wide, so in fact, the energy of operation is also extremely amazing, has formed a terrible monster!

It is with this kind of virtue that Lin Fengjin is holding the mentality of soldiers to block, water to cover the ground, quietly waiting for the enemy hidden in the shadows to make a move, as long as the other party shows his fangs, then the identity is exposed, and the enemy in the open is not terrible, especially in the home field of Yedu, Lin Fengjin has a lot of ways to make the other party return.

However, three days have passed since the incident in the restaurant, and nothing has happened.

Everything is eerily calm!!

People say that before the storm comes, there will be a strange calm, the problem is that Lin Fengjin through all his channels, did not smell any crisis against himself, this is inevitably a little abnormal, the so-called calm before the storm will at least make people feel stuffy, there are black clouds in the sky, if this is the analogy, the current form is clearly sunny, white sails, and a breeze. The waves are not happy, and they still bite and say that there is a storm, so isn't it blind?

This situation continued, Lin Fengjin and even himself were a little puzzled by his own judgment, it happened that on this day, Lin Fu's big shopkeeper came here to go to the account, Lin Fengjin left him down to drink tea, and suddenly thought of Tian Fang three days ago said that in order to attract his attention, he did not hesitate to spend 500,000 taels of silver to buy Lin Fu's shop, and he asked about it.

After hearing Lin Fengjin mention this matter, the big shopkeeper immediately said:

"That's right. There is such a thing, but because the transaction has not been completed completely, according to the usual practice, this time I did not report to you, Childe. ”

Lin Feng said respectfully:

"The deal wasn't completely done? What does that mean? Didn't the other party pay?"

The big shopkeeper said:

"No, the other party is very sincere, our shop is worth 200,000 taels of silver even if the goods are added to the land, not to mention that the other party still doesn't want the goods? As long as the shop is stored? As soon as I agreed, I directly paid fifty percent of the amount in advance. Childe, you also know that our Lin Fu sells delicate and expensive things, and you must be careful when handling them, otherwise it will be a big trouble if something goes wrong. So I have more time to make room. Therefore, it was agreed to settle the deed yesterday and pay the remaining amount, but the other party failed to make the appointment. ”

"No-show?" Lin Fengjin muttered.

The big shopkeeper was mistaken, and hurriedly said:

"It really didn't come. The 250,000 taels of silver they delivered before have already been entered into the account, and Childe can check it at any time, but since this matter is me following up. Then it must be officially reported to the owner after the settlement is completed."

Lin Fengjin waved his hand and said in a deep voice:

"I don't mean anything else, it's just that since the other party is willing to pay the deposit in advance and seems to be very sincere, why would he miss the appointment?

The big shopkeeper said:

"I don't know, but the silver ticket they issued is from Sihai Qianzhuang, and it is still a large-scale silver ticket from 10,000 taels, so it should be a big customer of Sihai Qianzhuang, and it is not difficult to find out their bottom along this line. ”

Lin Fengjin nodded and said:

"Well, there is a lot of mystery in this matter, so if you have the ability, you can check it out. ”

At this moment, a door suddenly trotted in from outside, looking very strange, but he was holding a greeting note in his hand, and he gasped a little:

"Childe, Childe, there is a strange thing?"

Lin Fengjin said in his heart:

"What's the matter?"

This man said in a trembling voice:

"Someone gave a gift in the morning, and the villain saw that it was only three rattan boxes, so he didn't care, he just opened it and saw it, it turned out to be"

Lin Fengjin frowned and said:

"What is it?"

This door says:

"The slave can't say for sure, so let's ask the son to take a look. ”

Lin Fengjin is to let the three rattan boxes come in, at first glance, these three rattan boxes and other markets can be said to be the same, at most twenty Wen one, there is a way is the prime minister's concierge seven officials, with the Lin family as the core of the formation of a commercial monster The influence is also unprecedented, so every day there is an endless stream of people who come to the door of the Lin family to give gifts, no wonder this door does not put these three rattan boxes in their eyes, and they have dragged it from the morning to the present to report.

At this time, among the three rattan boxes, there is already a trace of opening, Lin Feng pulled it with his hand, the pupils were slightly contracted, and the top was placed on the top of a statue of crimson coral, crystal clear, people can't help but indulge in the beauty of it, and the following is a string of silver-white beads that are pressed at will, rare are the size of a finger, and also emit a bright light, and the center of the beads is a jade wrench, although the jade on it is not big, but it is incomparably deep and unfathomable This ordinary rattan box inside, it is filled with very rare rare treasures!

"The contents of this box, at least, are the number. The big shopkeeper next to him was Lin Fengjin's henchman, and he directly compared it to two, that is, two million taels: "There are three other things in this that I have no way to estimate at all." ”

Lin Fengjin nodded slightly, and opened the second box, but it looked very simple, all of them were scrolls of calligraphy and paintings, and even some old and yellowed, but Lin Fengjin picked up the top scroll of calligraphy and painting and unfolded it, and immediately gasped:

"What is this?"

The Seven Killings sticker is the work of Xue Gang, the prime minister of the David Dynasty three hundred years ago, and Xue Gang is said to be a black and fat strong man. His chest hair is thicker than his beard, and he looks like a pig slaughterer, and it is recorded in the history books that he is unkempt, and even the sleeves of the prime minister's robe of the previous dynasty are stained with vegetable soup oil.

However, this person is especially good at calligraphy and painting, and there are pictures of ladies with small strokes handed down, and these seven killing stickers were learned at that time that Tugu Hun Koubian broke the Tongwan City at that time, and as a result, Xue Gang's most regretful nephew was also buried in Si. Xue Gang was full of anger and had nowhere to vent, so he picked up the pen and wrote seven killing characters, using seven kinds of brushwork, such as wild grass, Wei tablet, regular script, chapter grass, etc., to integrate grief and resentment into the penmanship, which is the origin of the seven killing stickers.

These seven killings are discounted after the world. It has always been treasured by Ouchi, and later the David Dynasty overturned, and it is missing, because the Seven Killings Sticker has not appeared publicly since the fall of the David Dynasty. Therefore, many people think that it has been burned in the military disaster, so it is difficult to estimate, and can only be referred to by similar things.

Three years ago, someone in Jiangnan exchanged a hundred hectares of fertile land for Mr. Wen San's "Linjiang Immortal". Mr. Wensan is a hundred years earlier than Xue Gang, but his fame is not as great as Xue Gang, and Mr. Wensan has four works in the world. And Xue Gang has a lot of paintings handed down, but there is no word, so it is basically certain that the value of this Seven Kills sticker will not be less than that of a hundred hectares of fertile land!

Then Lin Fengjin took out a scroll of calligraphy and paintings, opened it and looked, around he had been mentally prepared and continued to be taken aback, it turned out that he took out a painting, this painting is painted with the situation of two chickens fighting, almost vivid, jumping on the paper, even the nervous expressions of the onlookers next to him are also vividly depicted, the inscription on this painting, there are as many as a dozen seals, dense, new and old.

If Lin Fengjin is not mistaken, this picture of Zhang Chu's cockfighting was auctioned at a sales fair in Xiangfan ten years ago, and the valuation at that time was 800,000 taels of silver, and it was finally sold at a high price of 1.7 million taels.

The third inscription in the upper left corner is written in the golden stone nest, and the seal next to it is the bamboo shoot layman, and the valuable thing is these eight words! The bamboo shoot monk is another name for Li Shan, a generation of pen sects, and he also has an honorific title in the history books, that is, "book saint", so to speak, Li Shan is almost the combination of Wang Xizhi + Huaisu in Lin Fengjin's memory in his previous life.

And the most hateful thing is that Emperor Wei Jing of the David Dynasty is Li Shan's brain-dead fan, you know, the brain-dead powder is already very terrifying, and when this brain-dead fan has the power of the emperor, the destructive power exerted is very amazing. Emperor Wei Jing reigned for forty-one years, and from the time he was still the crown prince, he tirelessly collected Li Shan's works until his death!

Of course, liking a person's works is at most called obsession, and once Emperor Wei Jing involves anything about Li Shan's works, he has no reason and no discipline at all.

At this time, Li Shan has been dead for more than 100 years, and there are not many works that have been handed down, so before Emperor Wei Jing's death, this pen sect circulated among the people, only facsimiles and imitations, and the real works are all in Emperor Wei Jing's study without exception, and this guy did a heinous thing before he died, he asked the prince to bury all Li Shan's works after his death!

Then, the tomb of Emperor Wei Jing was never found, and Li Shan's handwriting was considered to be a masterpiece.

Until more than 70 years ago, someone excavated the tomb of Li Shan's disciples, and found out that Li Shan also has an alias, called Bamboo Shoot Layman, and suddenly, some people were ecstatic to find that their collection of famous paintings, there are actually these four-character seals, so the inscription is naturally the true handiwork of the Master of the Pen Sect!

Therefore, Zhang Chu's cockfighting picture is only worth 30,000 or 40,000 taels of silver, but the inscription of the bamboo shoot-eating monk on it is worth 1.67 million taels!

In addition, there are Zhang Ke's "Cat Playing Butterfly Picture" in this rattan box, as well as Xu Kuan's "Listening to the Rain Picture after the Leaves", these are things that are clearly recorded in the historical anecdotes, and the source of the three paintings Lin Fengjin does not know, but it can be put together with these masterpieces of hand-me-down, it is not a fish and a pearl, Lin Fengjin roughly assessed the calligraphy and paintings in this rattan box, and if you take it out now, it will be worth at least four million taels of silver! This is still in a hurry to realize! (To be continued......)
