Early in the morning, everyone had quietly left, and Hao Feng slowly got up. A night of pranayama may not have much effect on the residual injury, but the fatigue of rushing for many times has been swept away.

Suddenly, Hao Feng's expression moved, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, revealing a hint of joy.

Leaning slightly, there were a few soft knocks on the door with a bang. Hao Feng pushed open the door, the shopkeeper Hu was holding some food, and Xiao Liuzi was holding some washing things, standing respectfully at the door.

"Childe...?"

"Come in and talk!" Hao Feng didn't wait for Shopkeeper Hu to finish speaking, he gave a faint order, turned around and went back to the house.

Shopkeeper Hu's face was overjoyed when he heard this, and he walked into the room with Hao Feng and put the things away. Xiao Liuzi obediently closed the door gently, and then stood next to the shopkeeper with his hands down.

"Hehe, shopkeeper Hu, sit!"

"Little Liuzi, you go down first, I have something to say to Shopkeeper Hu! You have to study those things well, if there is anything you don't understand, ask me at any time, remember not to be in a hurry, everything must be gradual!"

Since Hao Feng has made a decision, he naturally will not shy away from it. first said to the shopkeeper Hu with a smile, and then said lightly to Xiao Liuzi. Then he looked at the two of them quietly.

"Hehe, don't dare, don't dare, Son, you're polite!" Shopkeeper Hu didn't sit down, he shook his hand again and again, and there was no difference on his face, obviously knowing that Hao Feng taught Xiao Liuzi martial arts.

"Yes, the villain remembers Childe's teachings, and must practice everything that Childe teaches, and never disappoint Childe's cultivation!" After Xiao Liuzi finished speaking, he turned around and prepared to go out, but when he walked to the door, he couldn't help but turn around, "Childe, I..."

"Hahaha, go down!" Hao Feng said happily.

"Yes, Childe!" Xiao Liuzi was obviously relaxed, happily pushed open the door and ran out. Although Shopkeeper Hu pretended to be casual, he was also relieved.

"Hehe, Childe, you are sorry for the little sixth son... Does this kid still satisfy you? The villain never asked, clicked... No one else has either..."Shopkeeper Hu saw that Hao Feng was not only not angry, but was very happy, and asked cautiously. I couldn't help but feel a little abrupt in my heart: "Secretly Dao, although this prince is humble and heroic, he is by no means an easy person, and his every move is very meaningful." ”

"Hahaha, shopkeeper Hu, don't worry about it. ”

"Xiao Liuzi is very talented in martial arts, and he is also very smart and clever, although I like it very much, but the first thing is to teach the art and teach the Tao. Even if I can give him some small benefits, if he hides it from you, he will lose his loyalty... Some tests, please forgive the shopkeeper. ”

"I'm very satisfied! Hehehe, the little sixth son was raised by you, and I don't take it without telling you, please don't be surprised. ”

Hao Feng had no intention of concealing it, and told everything bluntly.

Last night, he deliberately didn't tell Xiao Liuzi if he could pass on his martial arts, and he intended to tell others about cultivating him, just to see what Xiao Liuzi did.

Compared with the heart, if he encounters this kind of thing, even if there is a great benefit, Hao Feng will discuss it with Captain Jin Sheng at the first time. If Xiao Liuzi even hid the person who raised him, then no matter how high his martial arts talent was, Hao Feng would abandon him.

"Hehehe, the little sixth son can get the favor of your son, it is a blessing from the cultivation in the previous life!

“.......”

"Shopkeeper Hu, I don't know if you've seen it in Linhai Town..."

After a few polite words, the two talked happily, and Hao Feng was no longer polite. The physiognomy and characteristics of Long Changhai and his party are described in detail, and even the possible changes in age are vividly depicted with pen and ink. Directly asked if they had been to Linhai Town in the past 20 years.

"Absolutely never seen it! At least not in the past ten years!" Hu replied very certainly, in the more than ten years since he returned to Linhai Town, Long Changhai and his party have never come to Linhai Town.

According to what he said, if there is really a group of six people with similar behaviors and behaviors to Hao Feng, not to mention this kind of desolate place, even in large county towns and government cities, it will definitely attract people's attention.

And promised that he would personally ask the other aborigines in a while to see if there were any clues left before he returned.

Although the answer was expected, Hao Feng was still a little disappointed. Naturally, he would not refuse the kindness of the shopkeeper Hu, and nodded happily.

"Hehehe, shopkeeper Hu, there are still some things to discuss with you, I hope don't shirk!" Hao Feng no longer beat around the bush, and directly told Shopkeeper Hu his purpose, and explained that the firm was completely taken care of by him.

In the end, he solemnly promised that as long as he could find a few people, no matter what the development of the firm became, he would no longer ask about it, and all of it would belong to him.

As soon as these words came out, the shopkeeper Hu was smashed in a daze, and he was directly stunned.

At first, he just wanted to find a position in front of Hao Feng to manage things or something, but when he heard Hao Feng say that he didn't plan to transfer people from the family in this matter, and everything was up to him, he was already overjoyed, and felt that he could finally get what he wanted and show his strength.

I also heard that half of the money earned by the trading houses was used for the development of the trading houses, and half was used for the public to share. Hao Feng didn't take a penny himself, but just asked everyone to pay attention to and inquire about the whereabouts of a few people at ordinary times.

This is not only a pie-in-the-sky good thing, it is simply a table full of Han people who have fallen. Especially if you can find a few people, then... The Manchu and Han banquets are definitely made of gold.

"Shopkeeper Hu, do you see this matter?" Hao Feng looked at Shopkeeper Hu and was a little funny, and only asked after a while.

Shopkeeper Hu's answer naturally made Hao Feng extremely satisfied, and he didn't ask who he was looking for, what his relationship was with Hao Feng, etc., but he just said that he was willing to serve the dogs and horses, and he would do his best!

"Hehe, this matter can't be done in a while, just do your best!"

"You take the money first and do some planning. I think that man named Erniu is also quite capable, you might as well ... The cost of settling in is also more generous. ”

After Hao Feng finished speaking, he took out a package prepared in advance from the bedside and handed it to him.

Shopkeeper Hu took the burden with his hand, opened it and saw that his heart was beating again. Ten ingots of gold were more than five hundred taels, and fifty taels of silver were more than a dozen. If they were all exchanged for silver, it would be seven or eight thousand taels.

With such a large amount of money, I can't earn it in eight lifetimes. But Hao Feng gave it to himself so casually, and this trust alone made him feel that he was dying as a confidant.

However, he is also sincere, so he does not refuse. It's just that please rest assured, some small things don't need to be done by the son, and he will definitely do it properly. Then he bowed down and went downstairs.

The rude man didn't go out, he was wandering downstairs, and his mood seemed very restless. Suddenly, I saw the shopkeeper Hu going downstairs and hurriedly greeted him.

"Oh, little Liuzi, Xiao Liuzi, go and prepare some more food for Gongzi to deliver. Before he could speak, the shopkeeper Hu patted his head and shouted with some annoyance.

Just talking about the business just now, Hao Feng didn't move the food he sent before, and it was already cold, and he was negligent for a while, so he didn't think of it.

However, Shopkeeper Hu also saw that Hao Feng was not a person who cared about these trivial things, so he was not nervous, but just called Xiao Liuzi to prepare again with some chagrin.

Then he said to the rude man: "Hehe, Brother Erniu is also here, I didn't go out to collect things today! Hehehe, I didn't have a lot of fun watching Brother Erniu last night, where do I still have a jar of good wine, just drink a few more glasses, hehehe, let's go..."

A day later, the people near Linhai Town were surprised to find that the vendors who usually come here to collect some mountain goods and local products actually changed their usual habit of being careful, and became generous. When trading, I talk a lot, and I like to chat with others.

even inadvertently pulled the topic to ten or twenty years ago, no matter what happened, I listened to it with relish and was very curious.

After a few more days, something that made people even more surprised happened: "The Fulin House Inn, which has been operating in Linhai Town for more than ten years, actually changed its signboard and changed it to a somewhat strange name "Dragon Shadow Inn", with some unintelligible patterns on it. ”

This is not the end, it is said that the old shopkeeper of the inn will also go out, ready to go outside again, and the inn will be taken over by the honest eldest son.

This incident has aroused a lot of discussions in the small Linhai Town, and one by one they are curious. However, because Hao Feng gave a gag order, they naturally couldn't inquire about any reason.

Only the so-called Master Zhang faintly guessed that Shopkeeper Hu was going out and should have something to do with Hao Feng, but they were all silent, for fear of causing trouble for themselves.

After a long time, people slowly put the matter behind them, and no one mentioned it in Fulin Building again. In the past, merchants gradually became familiar with the name "Dragon Shadow Inn".

Until the vicissitudes of life, the Dragon Shadow Inn became famous, and the world knew it, this small inn still continued its mission in Linhai Town.

.......

Huijiang Mansion is located in a remote area, and most of it is Heze Mountain, which is vast and sparsely populated, so it does not have other county governments. Almost all of them are small villages and towns like Linhai Town, scattered all over the territory, which seems very desolate.

However, the location of Huijiang Mansion City is strategically located. Not only is the terrain relatively flat, but the surrounding area is crisscrossed by rivers, directly flowing into the source of the confluence of the Jiujiang River.

The entire city is surrounded by a wide moat, and several wide ditches have been artificially dug around it, leading directly to the various tributaries of the river. As a result, waterways are very convenient.

Many merchants in Jiujiang County use Huijiang Mansion as a transshipment center, gathering and exchanging various bulk materials here. It was then transported by water to the prefectures and even other counties in the county.

Therefore, although the territory of Huijiang Prefecture is desolate, as the only prefecture in the whole territory, its prosperity is not inferior to other prefectures and counties. At least less than half of the three or four million people in the whole territory flock here to beg for a living, and merchants from other places are constantly coming and going.

Outside the city, the north and south wharves are lined up, and the sailboats in the river are dotted, coming and going; the goods on the wharf are piled up, and many people who work hard are constantly transporting goods into the city, or loading them onto ships, and the work is in full swing.

This kind of scene also makes this remote city vibrant!
