Chapter 1 The Tao is the Way

Next Chapter

Great Yuan Dynasty, the north, Tieshan City, the land of thoroughfare.

A two-horse carriage drove slowly through the city.

The carriage was wide and the doors were closed.

The cold wind outside the car is cold, and the heater inside the car is burning, warm as spring.

A handsome young man sat in the car, his eyes calmly looking at the face of the maid next to him.

"What is the second master looking at?"

The boy didn't speak, just withdrew his gaze from the maid's face. It's been three days, and it's been three days since he came into this world. In this life, he is completely a gentleman. There is no way who calls his family rich, he is one of the richest in this Iron Mountain City, so he, the second young master of the Wen family, Wencheng, has completely degenerated. On weekdays, he either calls friends or eats, drinks and has fun everywhere, and becomes a waste in the eyes of others.

Waste is not waste, Wencheng said that it is not important, the important thing is that such a day, the lord also likes it.

A gentleman who eats, drinks, and has fun all day long, and does not do his job, can stay at home for three days because he accidentally knocked his head on the stone steps, which is already the limit, no more, no more, no more, isn't it not happy?

The life of a rich man is really good, and he glanced at the maid sitting next to him, this girl's name is Duo'er, and she is his maid, the kind that is close. The eyebrows are delicate, the eyes are big and bright, the skin is like condensed fat, and the most important thing is the delicate body under the snow-white fox coat, which is exquisite, and the legs are closed and slender. If this is on a horse, it is a beautiful female knight with a 100% return rate.

Duo'er pinched the handkerchief and gently wiped it on the corner of the boy's mouth.

"Second master, are you hungry?"

The boy suddenly came to his senses, and involuntarily reached out and wiped it on his mouth. It's a shame to feel the marks of your drool.

"Young Master, it's here. Fortunately, at this time, the coachman's voice resolved the embarrassment of the young man in a timely manner.

Push the car door and get out of the car.

Looking up at the few big characters in the middle of the pavilion in front of him, Chu Yilou. The Fengyue place, which was popular in the Great Yuan Dynasty, is said to have been transmitted from the Great Chu Kingdom in the south. The name of the Great Chu State has spread all over the world, and men have made a great contribution in it.

The young man looked at Chu Yilou and smiled, this is something he has never enjoyed in his previous life. In his previous life, he went to a regular foot bath shop to wash his feet at most, and that's all, his lame and unfamiliar appearance made the beautiful waiter eat and laugh.

Now it's okay, and I'm also a rich man. snapped, clapped the fan in his hand in the palm of his hand, leading people to fall or something, let the master have a good look.

The young man, dressed in a black fur coat, stood at the door, and the two guards came to him quickly.

"Second Young Master Wen, come here, please. ”

The young man pointed at the two with a fan, and Duo'er, who followed behind, rewarded the two of them separately, one for each of them with broken silver.

"Thank you, Second Young Master Wen, thank you, Miss Duo'er. ”

The two of them immediately bent down to thank the boy and Duo'er. A broken silver of two or three cents is a drop in the bucket for Wencheng, but for the two janitors, this is more than their monthly salary, how can they not thank the young man?

There is no way, who makes the Wen family rich.

Iron Mountain City, the most famous is high-quality iron ore, no matter in the world's weapons business, it is definitely the most profitable business, there is no one. The Wen family happened to monopolize all the iron ore and refined iron, as well as the weapons business in Iron Mountain City. The Wen family has a large number of iron ore mines, iron-making workshops, and finally sword forging, so it can be said that the Wen family completely monopolized the weapons business in this iron mountain city, from raw materials to processing, to finished products. Therefore, the Wen family has also become the richest man in Tieshan City.

"Second Young Master Wen is really a rare guest, I haven't been here for a long time, Miss Limeng misses you, and I don't want to think about tea and food. ”

Wen Cheng came, and this Chu Yilou naturally wouldn't let the two guards receive him. No, he was looking at the carved beams and paintings in this Chu Yi Building, magnificent, and secretly surprised. He didn't have the opportunity to see these decorations with his own eyes in his previous life, that is, he had just seen pictures on the Internet, at most, he had heard some people brag about it, and he didn't know if they had really seen it, or if the keyboard warrior was bragging there.

A steward smiled and saluted him with a fist. The steward was a middle-aged man, of medium height, with thin cheeks, and wearing a brocade robe.

A steward personally came out to greet him, neither high nor low. I want this Chu Yilou to come out to greet him in person, unless his father comes, it's almost the same.

"Drinking, chatting, you can see whether you can eat or not, what tea you don't want to eat. ”

Wen Cheng rolled his eyes, still focusing on the decorations around him.

The steward smiled bitterly and said, "You don't blame us for this." As long as the second young master can explain Master Wen, we will definitely have no problem. ”

Duo'er stood aside and listened to her young master's words, rubbing her clothes together with a pair of plain hands, and her two big eyes were like looking at a big pig's trotters, muttering her small mouth, staring at the young man fiercely.

If I can persuade the old man, I still need to find you?

To say that this old man Wen is very contradictory to Wencheng, he can not do his job, he can eat, drink and have fun, and he can spend a lot of money, all of which are no problem, but he is not allowed to fool around outside. The old man let out his words and did not allow Chu Yilou to arrange a night for him, so Chu Yilou really didn't dare to keep him for the night.

Although Chu Yilou is strong, he will not offend a local snake like the Wen family for such a thing, there is no need, right.

Besides, the Wen family is not a sheep, and if they can keep such a large family business, they are also a powerful tiger.

"It's boring, so let's do it according to the old rules. ”

The steward suddenly smiled and led the way.

Take a bath and push yourself.

Wencheng, who was lying on top of the wooden collapse and enjoying a few pairs of jade hands, only felt a burst of comfort.

Sure enough, it is the happiness of rich people, which ordinary people can't imagine. These women who rubbed him not only had bright colors, but also very professional and sophisticated, I don't know how many grades higher than the ones that my aunt pressed for him.

The steward came in with his hands closed and squatted beside Wencheng.

"Second young master, there is a consignment party to be held next, please enjoy it. ”

"Huh?" Wen Cheng opened his eyes in a daze, and came back to his senses to understand what the steward said.

The consignment meeting is a famous activity organized by Chu Yi Lou, to put it bluntly, it is to regularly invite people with heads and faces to play in Chu Yi Lou to sit and eat and drink together, just like a party. One difference is that at this consignment meeting, Chu Yilou will take out some of their things or things that others have given them to sell on their behalf, and let everyone bid for auction.

He, Second Young Master Wen, is in Tieshan City, so he is naturally a figure with a head and a face.

Turned over and sat up from the wooden slump and asked, "Do you have a list?"

"Second Young Master, please take a look. ”

Wen Er glanced at the list and saw a jade pendant auction item, and turned his head to look at Duo'er.

"Okay, I'll take a look, and if I can see it, I'll buy one for Duo'er. ”

The fine things that can be put up for auction are just a passing sight in the eyes of your Second Young Master Wen. Well, it's okay.

When the steward followed him to the hall, he saw that there were already eight people sitting in it. Oh, all acquaintances. After all, the circle of this Iron Mountain City is so big, there is no one who does not know each other, and among them is his fox friend and dog friend, Zhou Shuping.

When the other people came in, they all nodded their heads, which was regarded as a courtesy greeting.

Only this week, Shuping, with a hippie smile, moved to sit next to Wen Er.

"Brother Wen actually has the leisure to come to see this consignment today, is there anything else that can be as good as Brother Wen's eyes?"

Zhou Shuping said tentatively.

"No, I'm just bored, just come and have a look. ”

Wencheng is not as stupid and straightforward as before, no matter what he should say or not, as soon as others inquire, he will confide everything out of his mouth. He still understands the truth that if things are not secret, they will be harmed.

Zhou Shuping smiled and didn't speak after listening.

Wen Cheng didn't continue to say anything to Zhou Shuping, reached out and picked up the wine that Xiao Duo'er poured on the table in front of him and took a sip. The wine is not bad, although the taste of the wine is not as big as that of the liquor, but the taste is relatively sweet, and it is considered a good wine.

As for this consignment party, why is there wine. That is naturally Chu Yilou's deliberate doing, people will lose their minds when they drink alcohol, and they will go crazy for prices. If you are given tea, the more you drink, the calmer you become, and whether Chu Yilou can earn back the tea money is a question.

A sturdy old man in a dark red brocade robe, touching his beard, walked up the middle steps.

"You're all acquaintances, so I won't be verbose. Please look at the first item. ”

The maid next to her opened a vermilion lacquered wooden box and showed the contents of the box to everyone to see.

"Three, two, seven dollars of the big snow lotus. I don't need to introduce what the effect is, the starting price is 1,000 taels of silver. Each increase is not less than 100 taels. ”

Snow lotus is a specialty of the Snow Mountain, the main tonic and detoxification, with many effects. The most important thing is that everyone generally believes that long-term consumption of snow lotus can prolong life.

At this time, Wen Cheng suddenly understood, why many of the people who came today were the heads of some small families, I am afraid that they came for this big snow lotus.

After all, gold has a price, but life has no price. These people are very willing to spend money in order to be able to live longer.

However, Wencheng has no intention of competing with these people, although the big snow lotus is a good thing, it is not enough to make him feel excited, because he has it at home.

The price cries came and went, and the price of the big snow lotus was soon raised to two thousand taels, which was twice as high as the price tag.

Wen Cheng shook his head when he listened.

Although the big snow lotus does not appear much, it does not mean that there is none, it is just that it is difficult to get these small families like the present, and big families like the Wen family have a fixed receipt channel.

This price is already the apex of the market price, and I don't know if the person who buys it back will regret it.
