Lord of the House

Vol 3 Chapter 27: Immediate results

Lin Fu didn't expect Qian Xiaowu's old creditor, Chen Laiwu, who released money from Xicheng, to visit him.

"Master..." Chen Laiwu approached with a shy face, "I have offended a lot a few days ago, and Lai Wu has come to apologize to the master today."

"Lai Wuye is very polite," Lin Fu handed the horse to Zhao Mengxiong and led it to the backyard. He asked Qian Xiaowu that Zhao Hu and Lin Jingzhong took Chen Enze to the tea shop early in the morning and had not returned. He didn't really want to entertain Chen. Lai Wu, but he couldn't throw Chen Laiwu to Qian Xiaowu for entertainment, and said to Qian Xiaowu, "Have you served tea to Lai Wuye?" He lifted his feet and walked to the guest room in the front yard. The front yard will take Chen Laiwu away. Local snakes like Chen Laiwu can't easily offend them. In the end, they come to visit with a low profile. If they offend them, there may not be any big trouble, but they use some tricks to make people sick to death. People are best left to Lin Jingzhong. After all, Jiyun Club is going to do business in Jiangning City, so Chen Laiwu can be used for this role.

"No, no, I've had tea," Chen Laiwu said very politely, Lin Fu invited him to sit, and he just sat on the chair with a small buttocks, "I knew for a long time that the young master is a jerk. , is a first-class figure. This morning, I heard about the deeds of the son-in-law yesterday, and Lai Wu realized that he was still looking at the son-in-law. Although Lai Wu has no knowledge, he also knows what to do. To follow behind the buttocks of heroes, what is this called... Attached... Attached to the end of Ji. This thief of the vassal family is not a thing, he has done all the bad things of smashing the door of the house and kicking the door of the widow..." Chen Laiwu said in one breath After a lot of nasty remarks from the Fan family, he didn't take a breath until Qian Xiaowu brought the tea, and said to Qian Xiaowu, "Brother Xiao Wu, you are the manager of Lin's house now, how dare you make tea?"

Of course, Qian Xiaowu would not have a good look on Chen Laiwu, who forced him to sell his wife to repay the debt. He handed the tea to the table, said a word to Lin Fu, and then withdrew.

Lin Fu pondered the purpose of Chen Laiwu's visit, and remembered that Zhang Yubo said last night that Chen Laiwu and the steward of Mu Guogong's mansion were cousins. Being able to do something wrong in Xicheng also relies on the power of Duke Mu's government. The Marquis of Yongchang and the Duke of Mu have been established in Jiangning for more than 200 years. There are thousands of children from the two families. The children of these two families have exchanged in-laws in Jiangning City very rarely for more than 200 years. There is no discord behind it, and ghosts don't believe it. Lin Fu thought to himself: Chen Laiwu, the rogue, was sent by the Duke of Mu to test the depth of the water?

Lin Fu calmly handled Chen Laiwu away, politely sent him out, turned back and looked at the table when Chen Laiwu came over with a few packets of candied fruit as a gift, and called Qian Xiaowu to deal with it.

"Throw it on the street?" Qian Xiaowu asked. A few packs of candied fruit were worth 30 to 50 coppers. Qian Xiaowu felt that even if he came over to thank him as a poor man, it would be too light. Chen Laiwu said Li was very polite, but the gift was too frivolous, Qian Xiaowu/I don't understand why Lin Fu had to deal with Chen Laiwu for so long.

"No, people are hated, but things are not hated," Lin Fu said with a smile, "Give one to Miss Liu, and you can share the rest, don't waste good things..." I thought to Chen Laiwu If it is really sent by Mu Guogongfu to test the depth, then Mu Guogongfu must know that since he doesn't say a word and draw a knife, he can bear this slight.

Chen Laiwu went out of the dustpan alley. A carriage was parked on the street outside the corner of the alley. The curtain was lifted, and an old man in his 50s in a green shirt stuck his head out and asked, "How?"

"You didn't go in to see, he was very polite to me, and you saw it, he sent me out the door, that long bow is really a standard," Chen Laiwu said nothing at this time, blowing the nose , wiped his snot on the soles of his shoes, "I don't think this Lin Juzi is a remarkable person..."

"Heh," the old man put his hands in his sleeves, smiled, and said, "then you mess with him."

"What's wrong with me to provoke him? I'm not afraid of him, but I'm afraid that Zhang Yubo will peel me off." Chen Laiwu shook his head and asked again, "Who the **** wants to try his bottom, the old man?"

"You don't need to ask about this," the old man said. "You should be more restrained at the Zangjin Bridge. Zhang Yubo is really going to detain you and skin a layer of skin. Tell the driver to drive away from Dustpan Alley.

Lin Bie read a book in the yard for a while, then Zhao Hu, Lin Jingzhong and the others came back.

Lin Jingzhong walked into the middle courtyard and saw Lin Fu who was also sitting in the courtyard reading a book on a cold day, and said, "Enze stayed in the shop. When we went to the shop in the morning, we passed a flat-front shop and wanted to go in and ask how the signboard of Jiyun Club was made. , guess what?"

"What's the matter?" Lin Fu asked with a smile. When he saw Lin Jingzhong's brows, he must have encountered something good in the flat forehead store.

"There were a group of people in the Bian'e shop talking about the matter of the Fanlou last night. The shopkeeper of Yutai Tea House in the south of Zangjin Bridge was also there. Knowing that our family sells tea products, we will send a few teas to try it now. The hundred kilograms of old tea we brought here was carefully preserved by the Gu family, and the quality of the tea is naturally excellent. We prepared tea for delivery in the morning, and the owner of Yutai Teahouse was also there. Let's send them 50 catties of tea every month before the new tea goes on sale, and the price is good," Lin Jingzhong said happily, "To be honest, I was a little scared at Fanlou last night, but if I could Thinking of the immediate benefits today, I may have said a few rhetoric at that time. I will go to see Uncle Mengde later and see if the warehouse can borrow a thousand catties of tea for us first..."

There are still four months until the new tea is released next year. During these four months, Jiyun Club can only get more than 1,000 catties of old tea from the Gu family. Jiyun Club has not officially opened yet. Jiyun Club takes tea from Gu's family, and even if the price is increased by 30% on the basis of Linji Warehouse, ordinary high foam tea costs only 80 yuan per pound, and the selling price when it is shipped to Jiangning is 200 yuan. As long as the sales are smooth, when the new tea comes on the market in the coming year, the Gu family’s 40,000 tea arrives in Jiangning, and it will be a profit of three or four thousand silver if it changes hands. Falling down two thousand taels of silver was something that Lin Jingzhong, who used to take one or two silver taels a month at the Lin Kee Warehouse, never dared to think about it before.

Lin Fu laughed. If it wasn't for this benefit, why would he bother to report the name of Jiyun Club when he locked Fan Zhimei's throat last night? In two days, I am afraid that most of the people in Jiangning City will know about Jiyun Club and Qingfengxing. , Do not deal with Fanlou.

Lin Jingzhong asked again, "By the way, how many enemies do Qingfenghang and Fanlou have in this Jiangning city?"

"You need to pay attention to this in the future," Lin Fu told Lin Jingzhong about the recent visit of Chen Laiwu, "Nowadays, we pay attention to a middle way, unless you can kill your opponent all at once, or you will hate it to death. On the surface, they will still be friendly, which is called being decency. The opponents of Qingfenghang and Fanlou in Jiangning City do not want to lose their decency, and they may not dare to face Qingfenghang and Fanlou as enemies, but in their hearts However, I hope that someone will disgust them and attack Qingfenghang and Fanlou. We have just come to Jiangning, but there is nothing to lose. The big deal is to get out of Jiangning City..."

Lin Jingzhong thought about it too. People who have nothing are the most courageous. If they really want to fight for wealth and glory in Jiangning, how can they be too timid? It's just easier said than done. Lin Jingzhong knew that he was in trouble, but he didn't have the courage. He used to be very conceited, and reading history, he didn't think there was anything special about those heroes. The inconspicuous parts of the characters are the ones that are far from ordinary people. He remembered another thing and asked, "Uncle Mengde said yesterday that he wanted to lend us four people, but you refused. When I go to see him, if he brings this up again, how should I answer him?"

Lin Fu pondered for a moment and said, "There is no need for anyone in this house for the time being. You can handle other things..."

"I know, I know." Lin Jingzhong said.

In this era, hometown love is the most cohesive thing~www.wuxiax.com~ Being an official in the DPRK and China pays attention to the township party, business and study tours pay attention to the township party, business shops pay attention to hiring hometown people to do work, and they also pay attention to being a soldier and fighting a war. Pay attention to the neighbors as a group, even if the grass is a bandit, and the sea is a bandit, it is usually done by gathering the villagers.

This has been a deeply rooted tradition since the rise of the firm for over a hundred years.

Lin Jingzhong, Gu Tianqiao, and Zhao Hu brought two apprentices from the Gu family last time, and Zhao Hu brought his younger brother with him. Gu Wuchen was quite moved, and it was the same reason.

The warehouse thing is about to be planned, and there will always be a shortage of suitable manpower. Yesterday, Lin Mengde offered to lend a hand to this side, because he was worried about Lin Fu's safety in Jiangning, and borrowed four warriors to serve as guards for Lin Fu, but Lin Fu refused; Gotta borrow four good buddies to run errands there.

Lin Fu told Lin Jingzhong that he might go to Jiangdao Prison to be a prison officer. Lin Jingzhong opened his eyes and asked in surprise, "How can it be so coincidental?"

"Where can it be a coincidence? I have exhausted my mind for the position of Jiangdao Prisoner." Lin Fu said with a smile.

"Yes, yes," Lin Jingzhong suddenly realized, "Jiangdao prison hangs alone outside the city, and there is no military camp to protect the left and right sides. The situation of Chaotiandang in the face is more complicated than other suburban places. If anyone wants to sit on this guy, they will always ask him. The ability and the courage to do things make people feel at ease.”

"Yeah, it's not that easy to sit down in this seat, and there's not much oil and water," Lin Fu said, "After the matter is settled, I will ask Master Zhou and Zhao Hu to help me, and the matter here is up to you. What a lot of trouble. In addition, be careful not to make small moves behind the scenes between Qingfengxing and Fanlou." My QT room is open!
