Chapter Eighty-Three: See Brother Again

In the end, Dongluhou couldn't bear to refuse Xie San's repeated requests, and left a plaque for him - don't forget to fast, and always remind Xie San's family not to forget the ancestral teachings.

Dongluhou's words are really average, but he is in a high position, half a life, and there is a style in the handwriting, Xie San took the words and thanked him for his kindness, and immediately arranged for the guy to make a plaque, which will be hung out tomorrow.

After some tossing, seeing that it was close to noon, Tianhuo proposed: "Lord Wang, Lord Hou, brother, why don't we have lunch first, and then go to the inspection?"

Dongluhou patted his stomach and said: "Yes, I haven't written for a long time, I didn't expect to be hungry after exercising, so I listened to the fire, where do you say to eat?"

"The most famous restaurants in Yuhua Lane are the Lion King's Mansion and Phoenix Terrace, but Xiaguan wants to recommend Vienane Building for adults, this is a unique restaurant, and it is also opened by a good brother of Xiaguan, adults may wish to try it. ”

King Duanjun suddenly said, "Is that the one I came to give you a congratulatory gift last time?"

"Exactly, Lord Wang!"

Duanjun Wang nodded and said: "That taste is really good, Dongluhou, Xiao Wang has eaten there, but last time there were too many people, Xiao Wang didn't move a few chopsticks and left, I feel sorry for it after I go back, we can have a feast today." ”

"Listen to the prince, as long as you can eat enough. Dongluhou laughed.

Yan Weidong said with a look of resentment: "Lord Wang, Lord Hou, it's been early in the morning, and even the Xuanji branch hasn't arrived yet, how can we verify it, the emperor has not much time for us." ”

King Duanjun looked up at Tiandao: "That's right, we're here to check, it's a little scattered." Yan Shilang is not as good as this, our soldiers are divided into two ways to improve efficiency, Dongluhou and I will go to the Vientiane Building to check at this time, how about you go to the Xuanji branch to check?"

Yan Weidong also felt hungry at this time, and looked at Duanjun Wang, which meant that he didn't even let himself eat lunch.

Yan Weidong took a breath and said: "This is not appropriate, I am the main official on this errand, how can I let the prince and the Hou Ye work hard, let's go to the Vientiane Building together first, and then go to the Xuanji branch after checking there." ”

Dongluhou slapped Yan Weidong on the shoulder and said: "Yan Shilang is really responsible, as the saying goes, the people take food as the sky, this time is close to the meal, the restaurant business is the hottest, if you want to find out the problem, it is best to go to the restaurant at this point! ”

Yan Weidong rubbed his shoulder, Dongluhou's palm was not light, which made him grin for a long time, he understood that he might not find any problems today, so he could only come back another day to investigate.

Duanjun Wang and Tianhuo walked in front, Dongluhou and Li Mao followed, and then Yan Weidong and those small officials from the household department followed.

King Duanjun looked back at Yan Weidong behind him, and said to Tianhuo: "Tianhuo, I heard that you are going to issue two million Yuhua cards, and from then on, you will be able to make two million taels of income every year."

I really don't know how you came up with it! This king is eager to open your little head and see if the brain inside is golden. ”

Tianhuo pretended to cover his head and said, "Lord Wang, this head is the most precious in the whole body of the student, if you break it, it will definitely be a loss to the Great Song Kingdom." ”

"Haha, this king thinks so too! You entered Beijing empty-handed, turned your hands into clouds and covered your hands into rain, and in a short period of time you laid a foundation for yourself, and this king also followed you with a lot of light. ”

"Oh, what has the prince gained?"

King Duanjun suddenly changed to a voice: "Recently, many giants and officials have come to visit this king, which is quite effective. ”

"The prince has agreed?" Tianhuo also said.

"Of course not, didn't you tell this king that he wanted to be caught and indulged, and that he would rather have less than abuse? I found that the more I held the shelf, the more they tried to stick it up, so that this king was embarrassed to refuse them. ”

"Well, the prince will delay them for a few more days, and after fully understanding their demands, he will summon them one by one, so that he can grasp the initiative in negotiations. ”

"Tianhuo, this king has recently felt that there is a lack of talents at hand, and there is a shortage of handsome talents like you, I don't know ......?"

"Lord, don't beat my idea, I have to report to Taiyi Academy in ten days, and I can't get out within a year, even if I haven't graduated in a year, I won't have the energy to take care of so many things, so you can't be lazy." ”

"But there is no suitable candidate under this king, what should I do?"

"In fact, the students feel that what the prince lacks now is not handsome, but an intelligence team. ”

"Intelligence team?"

"Yes, the prince should immediately form an intelligence team, and soon they will be able to play a role. ”

"What kind of information do they want to find?"

"I'll talk about this when I'm free later, Vientiane Tower has arrived, I'll greet people first. ”

Tianhuo turned around and said, "Donglu Hou, Lord Yan, brother, this is Vientiane Tower, let's go in and check it." ”

Dongluhou laughed and said: "Okay, I think this is not small, at least two hours have to be checked." ”

Li Mao has not been more intimate with Tianhuo except at the beginning, although he has ten thousand questions in his heart, but in front of several high-ranking officials of the Song State, he has to hold back, seeing Tianhuo ask everyone, he smiled and said nothing, nodding in agreement.

Yan Weidong glanced up at Vientiane Lou and said, "Lord Tian, my subordinates need to cooperate with the inspection, and you have to arrange it." ”

Tianhuo looked at the hungry scribes in the household department and said, "That's natural, the adults came together, and of course the inspection has to be together." ”

The small officials of the household department thanked Tianhuo one after another.

Wanfeng had already gotten the letter, and was waiting at the door of Vientiane Tower at this time, and when he saw Tianhuo and them coming, he immediately greeted him.

Tianhuo introduced the two sides, Wanfeng coped with it easily, and a few high hats were sent, and even Yan Weidong showed a smile on his face.

Tianhuo found that Wanfeng was much thinner than a while ago, and he was also much more energetic, and he had less of the decadent temperament of the gentleman in his body before, and he began to have the appearance of some shrewd businessmen.

Tianhuo was amazed in his heart, it seemed that anyone would change because of the change in the degree of attention, and they would also grow up because of the change in status.

Wanfeng personally led everyone to the fourth floor and opened two private rooms, one for adults and one for small officials.

As soon as everyone sat down, all kinds of hot and cold dishes were served on the table, and the dishes on the main table were all handled by the chef of Vientiane Building, and the wine was also a special product of Jinling.

Yan Weidong didn't want to drink, but Dongluhou was not happy to drink, and after being scolded by him a few times, Yan Weidong also began to drink.

Yan Weidong was holding his breath in his heart, he only wanted to drink two glasses, but the delicacies and wine were matched with wine, how could it be said that he could stop if he stopped, and before he knew it, Yan Weidong drank too much.

The group of small officials under him, the usual income in the capital can only be regarded as above food and clothing, under the well-off, very little money to spend in a place like Yuhua Lane, how can you not let go of your belly to eat if you have the opportunity today.

At first, they also paid attention to Yan Shilang next door, and they didn't dare to let go of drinking, but later they found out that Yan Shilang was already drunk, so everyone let go.

Pear blossom white is a high-end wine, a scribe's annual income is only enough to buy four bottles of pear blossom white, how can I usually drink it? Today, I put it on the table and let them drink it for free, and I quickly drank a piece.

After drinking this wine for more than half an hour, Yan Weidong couldn't sit on the chair anymore, and kept sliding under the table, Tianhuo had to arrange a room for Lord Yan to rest, and by the way, the group of scribes in the household department also carried over.

Without Yan Weidong, everyone felt a lot more relaxed, Duanjun Wang opened a window and stood on the fourth floor with Dongluhou overlooking the entire Yuhua Alley.

In the afternoon, Yuhua Lane is more lively than in the morning, crowded with people, one after another.

Dongluhou sighed: "This place is several times more prosperous than before, Tianhuo Xiaoyou is really a good means!"

King Duanjun drank all the wine in his cup and said, "Uncle Dou, I really hope that every city in the Song Kingdom will have this kind of prosperous scene. ”

Tianhuo and Li Mao walked to another window, and Tianhuo probe looked down and said, "As long as the tax standards of the imperial court do not change much, and they do not interfere excessively in the industrial and commercial behavior of the people, sooner or later every city in the Song Kingdom will be so prosperous and rich." ”

King Duanjun and Dongluhou looked at Tianhuo together, and King Duanjun asked, "Tianhuo, have you also heard the news that the imperial court is going to levy commercial endowments?"

Tianhuo nodded, looked at the guests downstairs and said: "The Great Song Dynasty is rich in internal resources and boundless outside, if you insist on sharing weal and woe with the people, it will usher in a prosperous era in less than a hundred years." ”

Dongluhou also spoke: "Tianhuo, don't you support the imperial court's endowment?"

Tianhuo shook his head and said: "I am a small citizen, a monk, and at most a businessman, I don't understand the affairs of the imperial court, and I don't want to comment on it." Ten days later, I will go to Taiyi University to study, and the things here have little to do with me. ”

Duanjun Wang said in a deep voice: "But you are gone, the Yuhua Lane Management Committee and the Xuanji Branch are still there, what should they do?"

Tianhuo smiled: "Lord Wang, you are asking a bit of a question. Didn't I show up before the merchants in Yuhua Lane stopped doing business? The addition of endowment is nothing more than a matter of earning more and earning less, and it will not force the merchants in Yuhua Lane to go out of business.

Lord Wang, if you can't even open the merchants in Yuhua Lane, I estimate that there are not many shops in the Great Song Kingdom that can survive, so you don't have to worry so much. ”

Before Duanjun Wang could speak, Tianhuo turned his head sideways and said to Li Mao: "Brother, you just said that your father-in-law also set up a shop in Yuhua Lane, where is it?"

Li Mao's face turned red and explained, "It's not Uncle Yue, it's Uncle Shi." ”

Tianhuo had a suddenly realized expression: "Oh, I know, the marriage has not been decided yet, and I can't call my father-in-law." ”

Li Mao reluctantly bypassed this topic, leaned on the window and pointed to an unopened shop at the west side of Yuhua Lane and said, "Brother, you see that shop." ”

Tianhuo glanced at it and immediately remembered: "Oh, it's Uncle Xu Shi's house? I haven't visited it yet, I asked people to suggest that Uncle Xu Shi drive a car and a horse and run a river, I don't know what Uncle Xu Shi thinks about?"

"The Ninth Master is still hesitating, if I knew that you are Tianhuo, brother, I would have persuaded the Ninth Master to listen to your suggestion. Now that we finally got acquainted, I went back to convince him as soon as I finished my business. ”

"Brother, when you and I first met, did you trust me so much?"

Li Mao nodded seriously and said, "Ever since I saw you, I feel that I should trust you unconditionally, even if it is to sacrifice my life for you!"

Tianhuo suddenly felt a pain in his heart, the headache flared up again, he staggered, and hurriedly held on to the window lattice before standing.

"Brother, what's wrong with you?"

"Brother, I want to marry Jin Lan with you, and become brothers with different surnames, okay?"
