Uncle Guo

Chapter 43 Lurking

The subcolons of Runfeng Bank have now opened all over the country, and Yangzhou alone has No. [-] East and West.

Feng Qi is the big boss of Runfeng Bank, and many people are curious about his background. It is unheard of for him to achieve such a large business in such a short period of time, and the speed of his rise is unheard of.

In fact, Feng Qi just wears a gorgeous silk shirt every day, hugs his precious son and plays with crickets in the courtyard. His wife, the owner of Feng’s family, directs the mother-in-law and family members to be busy up and down, keeping a big house in order .

Dikong is now staying in Dongting to manage the merchant ships. He is a lazy guy who knows nothing about management and business. However, Liang Xuanchen can't see his pretty face now, so he can't continue to rely on his face for a living. Mr. Mu He couldn't bear it anymore, so he left a vain job and let him settle down there.Shui Kong is a good literate and obedient boy, Liang Xuanchen is very dependent on him, he asked Shui Kong if he wants to follow Di Kong or himself, Shui Kong disregarded his relationship with Di Kong and wanted to follow Mr. Mu.

Right now, there is no one else beside Liang Xuanchen, and he is bringing a beautiful boy with him, and he is afraid that they will mess up with each other. Now he has learned from the pain, and simply keeps his heart and asceticism.Since then, he has deliberately trained Shuikong to do some layman's work, especially Shuikong is literate, careful, and able to manage accounts.They are so busy that they can't see each other, a noble son must have someone to serve him, not to mention he is blind, so Shuikong chose a few considerate subordinates to serve him.

Now serving Liang Xuanchen is a little maid, this girl is a hard-working person, Liang Xuanchen bought her from the Mongols outside the pass, when she was locked up with cattle and sheep, she was too thin to be human.When she came back to raise her, she turned out to be a beautiful girl, a rare beauty. Shuikong also found that she could read a few words. Did not join Jiaofang Division.She was only three or two years old that year, and when she grew up, her mother and elder sister couldn't make it through because they had to go out to pick up guests, so they took her and fled outside the pass and fell into the hands of the Mongols, making life even worse , Even an individual can't do it, it's no different from mules, horses, cattle and sheep.

Shuikong kept this little girl by Liang Xuanchen's side because he had other thoughts, and raised her for three to five years. If the master and servant have feelings, maybe the house will be taken in, which is also a good thing.

Before Liang Xuanchen could express his opinion, Feng Qi became unhappy, thinking that the little girl was from a bad family background. She looked at the age of fourteen or five years old, but when she was full, she looked like fifteen or sixteen. Maybe she was in the hands of Mongolians long ago Li was broken.In the future, if you want to accept houses and take concubines, it is natural that a clean girl's house should be the best.

The sound of their argument was so loud that Liang Xuanchen couldn't bear it anymore, and shouted across the room, "I'm blind, not deaf!"

Feng Qi's voice of reprimanding Shui Kong became quieter.

A few steps into the house, the teacher in the private school classroom is teaching some boys and girls how to read. They are all very clever people. The left ear is listening to the noise in the room, and the right ear is listening to the sound of the teacher reading. Textbooks, but thinking about the official Mu behind the screen.

The little maid is close to the water, and spends all day long trying to take good care of Mr. Mu, making the bed and stacking the quilt is no problem. Knowing that the master likes to listen to songs and recite some poems, she doubles down on reading, writing, playing the piano and playing the zither , a little ambergris when it's cold, and a little peppermint when it's hot, you can speak clearly about drinking tea.

Liang Xuanchen really liked this little maid, but he sincerely raised her as a daughter and had no other intentions, "Axue, your ambition is to serve men?"

A Xuedao: "This world is full of men, isn't it just to serve the emperor, the emperor? How many people want to serve the people of the world?"

Liang Xuanchen felt that her cultivation base was already higher than his own, so there was no need to teach her anymore.

When Feng Qi and Shui Kong went out to do errands, Master He Chengwang, that is, Chang Qinghe, boldly came to visit. When the boy came in to pass on the pass, Liang Xuanchen was explaining the "Book of Songs" to A Xue.

"Why is he here?" Liang Xuanchen wondered.

"Master He said he came to visit along the way."

"Please come in."

It has been nearly a year since the last time the two of them had tea and discussed business in Yueyang Tower. During this year, Chang Qinghe had come to look at Liang Xuanchen from a distance. As the backstage boss of Runfeng Bank, he was especially blind. The uncle of the country, Liang Xuanchen usually lives in seclusion.No. 26 Qianzhuang in the 38 states of the North and the South and related silk and satin shops, fur shops, medicine shops, restaurants, inns, and various Goulan and tile shops.

If you want to see Liang Xuanchen, you can only post a visit, and the cooperation between the two is also very secretive, so it's better not to see each other on weekdays.

"What wind brought Mr. He to Yangzhou?"

Chang Qinghe cleared his throat habitually, "Let's take a look, I'm afraid that Mr. Mu's business has been completed, and he will go to another branch. After all, there are many military masters like me with some soldiers, but like you Master Qian can't find another one."

"Master He has beaten me." After saying that, Liang Xuanchen's complexion changed, "You won't really hear any rumors that I found someone else, right?"

"Have it?"

"It's enough money to support you as a military master, and I can't think about finding a second master."

Chang Qinghe said: "My people have contributed to some extent, and they are not raised for nothing."

Liang Xuanchen knew that he needed to collect debts and lend money to ask for arrears, and the military men did a lot of work, so he hurriedly said some polite words to curry favor with him.

Chang Qinghe saw a young girl serving beside Liang Xuanchen, and couldn't help laughing, "I remember that there were a few handsome servants beside the third master, why didn't you see them?"

Liang Xuanchen shook his head while drinking tea, "Don't call me the third master, now I'm called the thirteenth master, and I'm the thirteenth in Xiamu. As for my young men, they are all good-looking, don't say that they are handsome. He's so handsome, just being by my side is to make trouble for me, why not be as considerate as Axue's serving her."

Chang Qinghe really wanted to ask who was serving on the bed recently, but in this situation, he couldn't ask, "Since that's the case, why not accept such a lovely beauty."

A Xue's eyes lit up when he heard it.

Liang Xuanchen smiled and waved his hands, "Brother Chengwang, if you like me as a maid, I might as well give it to you as a concubine."

Ashe's face changed, she still understood the rules of being a slave and did not dare to interrupt casually.

Sure enough, Chang Qinghe said: "A gentleman does not take away what others love."

Liang Xuanchen said: "Are you a gentleman?"

Chang Qinghe's heart skipped a beat, and then he "hehe" laughed dryly, "It's fine for me to be a villain to others, but how dare I act like a fool in front of Mr. Mu?"

Liang Xuanchen put down the teacup, and said leisurely: "I'll tell you the truth, my brother, I've been completely ascetic recently. I'm already old, and I'm blind again. I have nothing left to do with this old skin. Now if there are still beauties to look at If you like me, you probably also like my money, not me."

Chang Qinghe knew that the word "old man" meant that he was relying on the old to sell the old in front of him. If others followed his wishes and said that he was old, Liang Xuanchen would probably turn his nose upside down. "When I met the third master before, I felt young and energetic but not stable enough. After years of experience, I can truly be worthy of the word "gentleman like jade."

Liang Xuanchen listened very heartwarmingly, but wanted to laugh at himself: "The stench of copper all over my body now is like a gentleman like jade, brother Chengwang, please don't make fun of me."

Chang Qinghe stared straight at him, and found that his slender fingers were subconsciously touching the white jade and purple bamboo stick in his hand back and forth. For some reason, he actually felt that this movement was very imaginative, and when he raised his eyelids, the little girl next to him The servant girl looked at herself curiously, Chang Qinghe hurriedly stopped talking, and pretended to be admiring the furnishings in the room.

"Master Thirteen has a big business, but the furnishings in this room are simple and simple."

"I've always liked simplicity. As for simplicity, with so many things in the house, it's hard to move around if you're stumbling around."

Chang Qinghe looked into his eyes again, and his tone changed slightly, "Have you found the enemy who made you blind back then, and I heard that he ran away?"

"If you want to find it, you can find it. He is also a military household. I heard that he is also leading troops in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Maybe you two still know each other."

Chang Qinghe was startled: "Who is it?"

Liang Xuanchen hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said: "It's better not to say anything, I will naturally avenge this revenge myself, so as not to involve irrelevant people, if you have a good relationship with him, wouldn't it be difficult for you? His is a personal enmity, and it cannot affect your official career, so it's better that you don't know about it."

Chang Qinghe said: "If there is something that can be used by my younger brother, the Thirteenth Lord just ask."

Liang Xuanchen just sighed, "It's strange to say that my enemy is just like Mr. He, he was successful at a young age, and now he is in a high position. I heard that he is very good at making money these years, and his soldiers are strong and strong. If I didn't know you, I really If you doubt my way of making money with you, let him know and do the same."

Chang Qinghe quickly put aside the relationship: "No, no, how dare I open my throat to talk about it? It's true that the soldiers under my hands are rich. As for myself, I still live with nothing. None of the concubines took one."

Liang Xuanchen cupped his hands, "In this regard, I admire you very much, brother Chengwang. Since ancient times, you have changed from being frugal to extravagant, and you are a person who does big things. It is really not easy to be able to grasp the propriety in this kind of thing."

Chang Qinghe humbled himself a few more words, and then turned around again, "Since the Thirteenth Lord knows where the enemy's family is, didn't he think about going there to take revenge?"

"He is now an official of the imperial court and a celebrity in front of the emperor, so he can't be killed casually, and killing him with one knife will be cheaper for him."

Chang Qinghe said: "Kill people to kill people."

Liang Xuanchen said: "He was successful at a young age, proud of his spring breeze, but if he fell from the horse, he would be poor..."

Chang Qinghe stared at him, "You are Uncle Guo, why don't you go to the emperor and sue him?"

Liang Xuanchen rolled up his sleeves: "I take revenge, do I still need the emperor to do it for me?"

"You are so persistent, you want to do it yourself?"

Liang Xuanchen raised his head and thought for a while, then suddenly twitched the corners of his mouth, the smile was not a sincere smile, not a happy smile, but a self-deprecating one, "I have to find something to do, right?"

"So you also practice martial arts for him, so that one day you can kill your enemies with your own hands?"

"Actually, I don't know how to take revenge myself. The so-called knowing yourself and the enemy is invincible. Unfortunately, I don't know what I want, and I don't know what he cares most about. If he was with me back then, if he was sincere, he should have something now." Maybe it’s better than this, but he didn’t hesitate to lose his life and even kill me, just because I don’t like him. So I think about it, just treat him as dead and ignore this person, probably he is the most It's uncomfortable. If he has someone he likes in the future, I can persuade that close person to cause him to suffer from disability, so that he can empathize with it. It's a pity I heard...he has always been alone." Liang Xuanchen paused here , suddenly turned around and asked: "Brother Chengwang, do you have a wife and children at home?"

Chang Qinghe's heart skipped a beat again, "Little brother...hasn't married yet."

Liang Xuanchen said: "My enemy's family is alone, so I am also in trouble. Otherwise, if I kidnap his son and spank his butt every day, I will piss him off to death."

Chang Qinghe laughed, "He blinded you with poison, do you just want to grab his son and spank him?"

"One person does one's job and one person is responsible. It is not a gentleman's action to arrest his wife and children and torture him. I still know this truth. It's just that he is a cheap person. If I arrest him and beat him every day, maybe he will still enjoy it. So you say, am I in trouble?"

Chang Qinghe imagined it for a while, and he was not sure whether he was a cheap bone.However, Liang Xuanchen suffered from blindness, if he could vent his anger by beating him every day, he was indeed willing to let him beat him.

"It's getting late, isn't it?" Liang Xuanchen stood up after speaking, and the white jade and purple bamboo stick moved forward, "Master He doesn't come to Yangzhou often, come on, let's go out for a drink together?"

"This……"

"Don't tell me that you are on military affairs, you have to leave now."

No matter what military affairs he has, Chang Qinghe wished to drink and talk with him at night, "Then...be respectful and obedient."
