Chapter 81: The First Meeting

Tianhuo sent the eight giants to the door, watching them leave separately, none of the eight went home directly, they all went to different stores, it seems that they are ready to convince the others tonight.

Tianhuo can't help but say, although there are no treacherous businessmen, but as long as they find their clear demand points, businessmen are definitely the most decisive, executive and organizational group, many times as long as they think it is profitable, they will work hard to achieve, if the profit is high enough, they do not hesitate to take risks.

"Master, the news of the junior brother is here, the master and several uncles have already arrived in Dangtu, and they will be able to enter Beijing tomorrow!"

Tianhuo was overjoyed and said, "Great! I haven't seen Master for almost a year, you ask the guys to clean up the store early tomorrow morning, and then let Ah Feng prepare a table of good dishes, and pick up the wind and dust for Master and them at noon tomorrow." ”

"Master, don't worry, after they arrive tomorrow, they will have to go directly to the Imperial City to face the saint, and it will be evening when they come back. ”

"Evening is night, let's get ready. ”

......

The fifth day of the first lunar month is the day when Duanjun Wang and Tianhuo meet each other, Duanjun Wang sent someone to inform Tianhuo in advance, and today he wants to introduce a few friends to him, all of whom are people in the officialdom.

Although Tianhuo doesn't like to have a close relationship with people in the officialdom, but in Jinling City, it is impossible not to interact with people in the officialdom at all.

He is now the "Ru Linlang" and "Wu Cavalry Captain" of the imperial court, how can he be regarded as half of the officialdom, and he can participate in the ancestral worship activities of the royal family, it is inevitable that people in the officialdom will come up, and the king of Duanjun has spoken, and Tianhuo is naturally not easy to refuse.

Tianhuo got up early in the morning, and according to the usual practice, he set off from the Xuanji Branch, first walked east to the alley, changed to the opposite side of the road, then went west to the other side of the alley, and then changed back to the Xuanji Branch.

As long as he is in Jinling City, this is his homework that he must do every morning, greeting and contacting the owners and guys of each store along the way, caring about the situation of each store, providing help in time when he finds problems, and encouraging him in time when he finds that his morale is not good.

The shopkeepers in Yuhua Lane like to call Tianhuo's morning exercise activity "patrol", just like the king of all beasts has to walk through his territory every day, only then can Tianhuo feel at ease.

The shops he inspects will also feel very happy, and as long as he appears, the whole store will be filled with a happy atmosphere.

Once upon a time, the gentle and humble young man in white became the backbone of Yuhua Lane, and before everyone realized it, he became the umbrella and promoter of Yuhua Lane's prosperity, and everyone acquiesced in his heart to the existence of his president.

Although it was still relatively early, many customers had already come to Yuhua Lane, and the first to be lively were the restaurants, and then other shops also began to be lively.

More than half of the guests who came came to apply for the Yuhua card, by the way to visit the famous Yuhua Lane, and the other part of the people came to experience the discount effect of the Yuhua card, when they bought the goods at a real discounted price, they were immediately very happy, and the Yuhua card was more regarded as a treasure.

Tianhuo likes the market atmosphere of Yuhua Lane very much, and he can feel a vitality in his life here.

Tianhuo still doesn't understand what the world is, but for him, the Yuhua Lane in front of him is his world, he has achieved "knowing the world", the next step is to "guard the world", how to start from Yuhua Lane to help the world, this may be the direction and key to Tianhuo's cultivation and enlightenment.

Tianhuo stood in front of the door, watching the purple qi that symbolized popularity and luck that no one else could see in the sky above Yuhua Alley continued to accumulate and steam, and said secretly: "What an excellent place to cultivate!"

Tianhuo smiled and prepared to go back to the backyard, but at this time, there was some commotion at the entrance of the alley on the east side, and the crowd seemed to be driven away, and Tianhuo couldn't help frowning slightly.

After looking closely, he found that several official carriages and a team of officers and soldiers came to the entrance of the alley, and the guests at the entrance of the alley avoided one after another, and the black-clothed man who was responsible for maintaining order at the entrance of the alley did not dare to move when he saw the officers and soldiers.

Immediately, a manager of the management committee greeted him, and at the same time, a man in black with good foot strength rushed towards the Xuanji branch, he came to report to the president.

Tianhuo frowned slightly, and walked briskly towards the east side of the alley, he could see from the style of the leading carriage that it was Duanjun Wang's carriage, but Duanjun Wang cared for Yuhua Lane, he had long regarded this place as his backyard, how could he come here early in the morning to make trouble?

The problem must be in the carriages behind, the carriage of a national candidate, the carriage of a third-grade official, and the carriage of a diplomatic envoy of Honglu Temple, this combination is very strange, Tianhuo is a little confused, but he knows that he must be right to appear earlier.

The man in black saw Tianhuo head-on, and hurriedly shouted: "Young Master Tian, it's not good, there are people from the government who have blocked the alley on the east side, what should I do?"

"Don't panic, I'll take care of this matter, you and your companions go to clear and appease the shops and customers, pull up a cordon and get out of the middle of the road. ”

"Eh, got it!" the man in black hurriedly rushed into the backyard of the Xuanji Branch, where there was a mobile force all year round, and only dispatched when there was a big commotion on the street.

Tianhuo didn't seem to have a lot of steps, but he soon arrived at the east side of the alley, at this time the well-trained man in black had already controlled the panicked crowd, Tianhuo made a gesture to separate the left and right, and the men in black immediately understood, and the man in black who came behind Tianhuo quickly guided the guests to both sides of the road, making way for a road two feet wide.

Tianhuo walked to the first carriage, bowed deeply, and said, "Xiaguan Tianhuo didn't know that the king of Duanjun had arrived, and he missed the distance, and I hope the prince will forgive me." ”

The curtain of the carriage was lifted, and the smiling Duanjun King sat on the carriage and said: "No wonder, we were a surprise attack today, and we didn't plan to tell you in advance, but it doesn't seem to scare you, but it scared your guests, I'm really embarrassed." ”

"Lord Wang, Yuhua Lane is a commercial place, and it is rare to see Tianhuang nobles on weekdays, today you personally inspect Yuhua Lane, but the shops and guests in Yuhua Lane are fortunate to have three lives, how can you be frightened?"

King Duanjun stroked his palms and laughed: "Don't pat yourself on the back, I'm not the main master today, I'm just a companion, today I came to inspect you here is the famous Yan Weidong Yan of the imperial court, upright, and jealous!"

Lord Yan is the right attendant of the household department, who is in charge of the southeast finance, and he is the superior supervisor of your Yuhua Lane, so I asked you if you are afraid?"

Tianhuo said curiously: "Lord Wang, I have never been a traitor, and the Yuhua Alley is also full of conscientious businessmen, and the guests on both sides are also good people of the Great Song Dynasty, we are doing well, why should we be afraid?"

But then again, such a large group of people appeared inexplicably, and anyone else would be flustered, and I only hope that when the government inspects in the future, it can strike a balance between peace and harassment. ”

"Well said! Since you are all good citizens, then you are not afraid that this official will come to investigate, and this official will not deliberately make things difficult for you, if you are indeed conscientious businessmen, no one will dare to come here to harass you after this official keeps it!"

A somewhat hoarse voice came, and I saw a purple-robed official step down from the third carriage with some displeasure on his face.

I have heard that the king of Duanjun and this Tianhuo have a very close past, but I didn't expect the king of Duanjun to condone Tianhuo so much, a county king, a national candidate and a squire were actually stopped by a flat-headed common man at the entrance of the alley and not allowed to enter, the county king was not annoyed, and he was still chatting and joking here, what kind of system.

Yan Weidong didn't dare to question and urge Duanjun Wang, so he had to get out of the car and face the skyfire.

King Duanjun looked sideways at Yan Weidong and said: "Since Lord Yan can be so sympathetic to the people's feelings, and is ready to visit Yuhua Lane on foot, Xiao Wang and Dongluhou can't be specialized, Dongluhou Let's also get out of the carriage." ”

"Okay, this carriage is coming, and the old man is a little depressed, so it is better to get off the carriage and walk together. "A sturdy fifty-year-old man jumped out of the carriage, dressed in a python robe, this is Dongluhou.

Dongluhou shouted to the carriage behind him: "Li Guanfeng envoy also dismount, let's go in together." ”

"Good!" a crisp voice came from the fourth carriage.

Yan Weidong's eyes showed a hint of anger, they came to inspect Yuhua Lane to find out the problems of the Yuhua Lane Management Committee and Tianhuo, but they didn't expect to be stopped at the entrance of the alley, so they could only walk in, and their momentum was three points weaker, how to investigate the case well for a while?

But King Duanjun insisted that he first proposed to visit on foot, and now that he had gotten out of the carriage, it was too late to regret it.

At this time, it would only be more embarrassing to get into the carriage again, so he could only grit his teeth and say: "Lord Wang, Lord Hou, since you also agree to visit on foot, then let's go in together." ”

Dongluhou saw Yan Weidong's deflated expression, and said secretly in his heart: "This official fan knows that there is an unjust case out of nothing in one day, and this time I don't know who took advantage of it, and took the initiative to get into this trouble."

He thought that behind the heavenly fire was Xiao Nineteen, but in fact, the emperor was his big backer.

However, Tianhuo itself is also very powerful, and he was neither humble nor arrogant everywhere just now, and forced Yan Weidong to only walk into Yuhua Lane, I will watch it for a while!"

King Duanjun waved his hand to the team behind, and the four carriages and the whole team of officers and soldiers got out of the blocked Yuhua Alley with interest, and withdrew to the adjacent street, leaving only a few secretaries and scribes accompanying the household department, who were the main force in this investigation, and naturally could not go away.

After the officers and soldiers withdrew from Yuhua Lane, Yuhua Lane quickly restored order, Duanjun Wang felt very satisfied, he was just about to call everyone to go to the Xuanji Branch, but suddenly found that Tianhuo, who usually did not change color in front of Taishan collapsed, stood in place in a daze, looking behind him.

Duanjun Wang thought that Tianhuo had seen an acquaintance, so he hurriedly turned around and found that in addition to Dongluhou and Yan Weidong, there was only one Guanfeng envoy sent by the Tang State to assist the Song State in investigating the affairs of the cult, and there was no one else.

And the envoy surnamed Li also looked at Tianhuo in a daze, with a thick look of suspicion in his eyes.

King Duanjun couldn't help but ask, "Tianhuo, are you and this Tang Kingdom's Wind Watcher old acquaintance?"

Tianhuo shook his head, walked straight through the middle of Duanjun Wang and the other three, and walked in front of Li Mao.

"We know each other?"

"I don't know?"

"Why do I feel so close to you?"

"Me too, I see you have the feeling of seeing your loved ones!"

"I've been hurt, and one memory is gone, and every time I think about it, I get a splitting headache!"

"Me too!"

"My name is Tianhuo. ”

"My name is Li Mao. ”

Tianhuo suddenly felt a pain in his head like an explosion, and his body couldn't help shaking.

Li Mao was shocked, and hurriedly reached out to support Tianhuo, who grabbed Li Mao's arm with his backhand and said, "Can I call you brother?"

"Well, brother, that's what I mean!"
