Chapter 164: A Visit
Now he is the richest man in Weicheng. Looking at the entire Qingguo, it is also one of the richest families.
But only he knows best how much of the wealth of the Yu family is his own and how much is someone else's.
And who this "other" is, some he doesn't know, and some he doesn't know. There are so many industries under his name, and if they are really under his control, they will not exceed 20%.
If Li Yunxin knew about this, he would have said to him...... You're just a "white glove".
And in this era and this world, this identity has another name - "white fan".
Probably no one knows what the original meaning of this title was or when it was handed down. But if you want to force an explanation, you can attach it to the meaning of "the white fan shakes lightly, and does not stir up dust".
The nobles of Jinghua also love money. However, the emperor did not like the nobles to love money, and thought that competing with the people for profit was not only unbenevolent, but also difficult to keep honest. As a result, many people have joined the noble people and sacrificed their wealth or talents in order to seek the greater good.
In the eyes of many people, he is a "great ruthless character". Because it wasn't he who voted for a certain family, but a certain family found him first.
According to people, when he first took charge of the family, the nobleman took a fancy to his family business, so he made a stumbling block. With this casual hand, Yu's family almost died. But it was overcome.
A little merchant had such ability, so that the noble man raised his eyes and looked at him, and then several more means.
But it was over again.
Now it really fell into the eyes of that person. Laugh at him for not knowing how to lift, and sigh at him for being funny. So he made a killing move seriously.
At this time, everyone thought that the Yu family would die. Unexpectedly, it was so well-behaved and decisive that it surrendered.
The noble man asked him why he had wasted so much effort before, but now it is not the same result. It is said that at that time, everyone loved the brave and heroic, and did not like the cowardly. If he had been timid and afraid to give up his family property, he would not have had the opportunity to sit and talk in the main hall of the mansion today. The Lord loves heroes. He wants to be a hero.
When he heard this, the noble man laughed, and instead of accepting his wealth, he told him to do things for himself. After six or seven years, I was finally appreciated......
became one of the wealthy merchants in the Daqing Dynasty.
But whether the truth of the matter was as rumored to be—it was all his courage and ingenuity that resolved crisis after crisis, or whether there really was a "man of God" in his family—he was now accustomed to that feeling.
Such a feeling of waving his hands and stomping his feet, even Weicheng trembled slightly. While what he has is likely to be lost at some point, at least for now. He thinks there's something else he can do......
He considers himself a hero. How could a hero be willing to be a puppet and a slave for the rest of his life?
It was because of this thought that he originally planned to have a good talk with the Divine Dragon Sect. In other words, it was just a polite way to talk about it—he didn't think that the people behind the Dragon Sect had enough capital to sit on an equal footing with him.
It's just that night, when the Taoist priest of the Shenlong Sect ran to his son's room and pretended to dream, Yu Qi was sitting in the study and introspecting.
Every month, he introspected himself—going through everything from the time he could remember it all the way to the present. Because he knew that his current position of power was very inflatable. If you do this, once you are complacent and can't grasp your identity and status, you will be in big trouble.
Unfortunately, like all old people, he reflected on himself for a while...... was dragged into memories by a lot of past events.
Then I heard the thunder and the servants say that something was going on in the city.
He drank three glasses of wine in the evening, and at that time he was still drunk, and he did not feel alarmed.
Seeing that he was calm and calm, the servants who were originally anxious also calmed down. Just for a moment. Yu Qi remembered the time when he clasped his hands, took a deep breath, and walked into the nobleman's mansion with his head held high.
At that time, he was desperate and forced not to tremble. Take a deep breath as you speak, so that your voice does not tremble.
However, the noble man sitting in the hall lowered his eyebrows and drank tea. What he remembers most clearly is that the nobleman wore a purple-red robe with a peony embroidered with gold thread.
As he spoke, he stared at the robe, thinking to himself that if he died here today, he would be as red and purple as the robe.
If you escape this catastrophe today, you will be as rich as this golden embroidery......
In the future, I will be like this noble man—like him.
Then seeing the servant's panicked look, he remembered the golden peony on the robe. Touching the scene. Suddenly I felt like I had done what I wanted to do many, many years ago, but now I seem to have done it.
But at that time, I said "I want to be a hero". And where?
It was when he was caught up in this delicate emotion that someone came to report what had happened in Yu Meng's room.
Yu Qi, who should have frowned in peace, suddenly laughed after hearing this.
There are people who are not afraid of death and hit his family with their ideas.
This man...... Like him.
At least like then.
Hence the second day. Yu Qi really wanted to meet and talk to the sect leader of the Divine Dragon Sect. And then...... Use it for something else.
He wants to be a hero, not a puppet.
But in the past three days, he found that this Divine Dragon Sect was not the Divine Dragon Sect he thought it was at all. He turned out to be a little ...... I can't see through it.
What are those people trying to do?!
It wasn't until the fourth day that someone sent a post.
The post is from the Divine Dragon Sect. The poster calls himself "Li Yunxin, the prince of the vast sea mantis kissing the dragon". He said, "If the Divine Dragon Sect wants to do good deeds, I hope to meet with the elderly, and the interview is appropriate." ”。
Yu Qi stared at the post for a long time. But not because of the content - he's seen a lot of the content of this post. Some people who think highly of themselves will always vote for him such posts. looks serious and old, but he can't hide the crampedness in his eyebrows and the arrogance in his words - like when he was young.
It's just that the name of this drop is too weird.
He has an impression of Li Yunxin's name.
At first, it was his son who rescued a teenager named Li Yunxin on the side of the road. He didn't know about this until a long time later, and he didn't take it to heart.
After that, his cousin Xuan Chengzi went to the Baohua Society, saying that there was a Taoist priest named Li Yunxin at the meeting. At this time, Yu Qi remembered the name. It is said that he is a great painter, but it seems to have some trouble with Langya Dongtian.
However, the Sky Fairy behaved very politely to him......
The things of the immortals are always difficult to say, so they don't dare to guess at will.
Further back. It is said that Li Yunxin and the Sky Fairy are both dead, because they have angered the Dragon King, or because they are fighting demons. There are many opinions on these things, and there is still no conclusion.
This is an eventful time, and there was a change in Xiaohun Street a few days ago.
People say that it is the monks of the Divine Dragon Sect who eliminate demons. But in his opinion, this matter is completely different from what happened on Taoxi Road a month ago.
The Taoist priest from Langya Cave is in the city, and where is the turn of a cult wild Taoist priest to get rid of demons. That night I went to the room. It's just that he has already planned and caught up with the coincidence, and he just took advantage of the situation.
As for the name......
If there is really a dragon prince, if you want to see yourself, a mortal will not send a prayer post.
The leader of this Divine Dragon Sect...... Judging from this worship post alone, there is a sense of evil spirit and cunning of the people in the rivers and lakes.
It can indeed make some noise, but it is difficult to become a big climate.
So he set three points in his heart. After three minutes and a day of drying for the Divine Dragon Sect Master, I heard that the people they were on Taoxi Road seemed to have some problems with their diet and began to buy them everywhere, so they ordered someone to invite the Sect Master.
And that day, he didn't just sit idle. He wants to look up something, and there will always be results.
On the fifth day of the Egret Continent Christians' entry into the city. Li Yunxin and Liu Gongzan entered the door of Yu's mansion - from the back door.
He had previously allowed Yu Meng to pay for the repair of that small street, and he had already established a relationship with the Divine Dragon Sect. Therefore, it is important to get everything clear as soon as possible. After figuring it out, whether it is subdued or exterminated is all in a thought.
But Rao had such a contemptuous attitude, and when he saw Li Yunxin enter the main hall, he still couldn't help but secretly praise in his heart - what a dragon and phoenix among a person!
Looking at a young man of eighteen or nineteen years old, slender and straight, with a face like a crown of jade. A pair of sword eyebrows flew obliquely into the temples, and a pair of starry eyes shone brightly.
Dressed in plain white clothes, he gently shook a tearful bamboo bone white paper fan in his hand - he was graceful, handsome and chic.
Although he loved his child, he also felt that his son was only about his appearance. But it's not as good as Li Yunxin's.
Look at the person behind him. Wearing a green cloth robe, he is between forty and fifty years old. also gave birth to a good face and five strands of beautiful hair.
So he tapped his finger lightly - there are two people who look so good. It's no wonder that the Divine Dragon Sect is gaining momentum.
But he said that the two of them went straight into the middle hall and stood down, and the young man raised his head slightly and arched his hand: "In the Lower Divine Dragon Sect, the Vast Sea Turtle Kiss the Dragon Prince Li Yunxin." I've seen Yu Gong. ”
When he had finished saying this, he did not wait for him to answer, but as soon as he pulled the hem of his clothes, he grabbed the side and sat down.
He sat down, his eyes drifting to the small table next to him, where there were tea cups and saucers with dried fruits and candied fruits. Li Yunxin first glanced at it fiercely, and then hurriedly withdrew his eyes. The eyes and nose, the nose and the mouth, and the mouth and heart sat still.
In addition to these three people, there were also maids and servants in the hall. The subordinates of the Yu family always have a lot of knowledge. Now that he saw Li Yunxin's rude appearance, he frowned at first, and said in his heart that this person was too arrogant! That Governor Zhao had seen our master before. Don't dare to do this!
But then I saw his eyes staring at the fruit bowl, and my heart instantly understood. But in the end, it was the people of the Yu family, and he couldn't bear to laugh - looking at his dignified appearance, he turned out to be a dirt bun who had never seen the world.
This is really a golden jade, and it is ruined!
A servant serving tea on the side wanted to drink him, but Yu Qi raised his hand resting on the table slightly, and the servant did not speak.
Looking at the old Taoist Liu Gongzan again, when he saw him as a "sect leader", he seemed to be anxious and angry, and he had a bad seizure. Seeing that the sentence "how to teach you outside" was not easy to say, he glanced at the young man on the throne fiercely, and hurriedly handed over his hand to him: "Forgive me, my family master is new to the world, and he doesn't know the etiquette rules of the world very well. In Xia Liu Gongzan, I am the elder of the Divine Dragon Sect, originally from Weicheng, and some people know me. In the next day—"
Yu Qi raised his hand calmly, groaned slightly, and said, "Sit." ”
This Liu Gongzan was busy thanking the gift, and went to Li Yunxin's hands to sit down.
At this moment, Yu's good impression of the young man when he first met him was gone.
- What a newcomer to the world. It's okay to coax those villagers to say it in front of him...... In the end, there are two people in the rivers and lakes. Out of nowhere, I found a young man who was born beautifully, coaxed him to be the "sect leader", and then Liu Gongzan used some means behind his back to win people's hearts.
In the future, it will become a climate, and good food and drink will be offered to this "sect leader". In case things change and he wants to take on some kind of disaster, he can also push out this "sect leader" - such a method, he used it as early as a young man.
Merely......
Yu Qi picked up a cup of tea, brushed off the leaves on it, blew it, took a shallow sip, and didn't look at Liu Gongzan, so he said: "I have heard your name." ”
That Liu Gongzan was busy with surprise: "Ah, Yu Gong actually knows——"
"You used to be called a ghost operator. Yu Qi put down the teacup, "It's a bandit." ”
Liu Gongzan's surprise was instantly stuck in his throat, and he was speechless in embarrassment.
"Be a bandit first. Fame, it's still okay. But after all, it's bandits. Later, from Liang, I went to the Dragon King Temple on Taoxi Road to do temple blessings. Again...... There were some more incidents, huh?" Yu Qi glanced at Liu Gongzan, and only said this—he didn't tell all about his killing of Yin Zhutou.
It's just that a charlatan, a charlatan, a cheater, now wants to get on the door of his mansion.
He didn't care much about his origins. Since this Liu Gongzan has made some noise, he can also reduce talents without sticking to one pattern. It's just that the other party is like this today, bringing a golden jade skin, and saying something nonsense about the first time the dragon prince came to the world-is he easy to coax.
If he has the heart to investigate, he can still find out a lot of things!
Really. After saying this, Liu Gongzan couldn't sit still anymore. Sweat oozed from his forehead, and he stretched out his two hands in a panic and shook them in front of him. But soon I felt so undignified and hurriedly put it down. He only said: "Yu Gong, Yu Gong! Oh, it's hard to say, it's hard to say!"
Although the other people in the hall didn't know what their master didn't say, when they saw Liu Gongzan's appearance, Fang Cai was still unhurried and popular, but now it was messed up, and finally someone couldn't hold back and laughed.
Liu Gongzan seemed even more embarrassed when he heard this smile, and he only bowed his hand to him, but he couldn't speak.
Yu Qi was still sitting upright, and there was no sadness or joy on his face, and he said, "Earlier, someone in your sect sneaked into my son's inner room late at night and said something. Although I don't believe it, I still appreciate the means and courage to do so. So it helped you too. ”
"But don't think I'm at home because of this, so I eat the same way as your charlatans. I'm always aware of you. And that Li Yunxin ...... Is this really the one in front of you?" (To be continued.) )
