Shi Yan just glanced at it lightly, as if nothing had happened, and walked straight forward with his hands behind his back.

But Mr. Qian, who stayed where he was, felt as if he had been seen through at a glance. For a moment, he felt that he had no secrets in the other's emotionless glance.

When Shi Yan walked to the end of the bridge, a voice suddenly came from behind: "Master, please give me something to eat!"

Shi Yan turned around lightly with his hands behind his back, and his eyes met with Master Qian.

Master Qian bent down like a real beggar, and his voice trembled uncontrollably: "Sir, I know you recognize me, but when I was in the private school, I passed my classmates to protect you. For the sake of the meal, Qian asks you one thing."

Shi Yan's eyes were indifferent and without warmth, and his words were ruthless: "You should know what can be mentioned and what can't be mentioned."

Master Qian nodded again and again: "Understood, I understand!"

Shi Yan seemed to do it casually. Master Qian's bowl that was missing a hole made a "jing dong", and fell into a silver **** that was kneaded by Shi Yan with great strength, but the exact shape could not be seen.

Shi Yan did not agree, and Master Qian did not ask any further questions. Both of them understood in their hearts that Shi Yan agreed to Master Qian's request.

At that time, Yan had mediocre homework in the private school, but he was a good person, and he was very envious of his husband. Therefore, he was often hated by others. Once, he encountered a few old and unreasonable classmates who deliberately tried to find fault. Seeing the injustice, Lu kept Shi Yan behind him and was beaten by the group of people, saving Shi Yan.

The two became friends because of that.

A big Buddha came to Luo'an County, and the magistrate was obviously an insider. Because the old lady often teased her grandson at Shi Yan's house, the magistrate often had to disguise herself and go to the He's house to greet the old lady.

When Shi Yan arrived home, he heard his grandmother say to his grandmother: "This old man, you are holding your grandson in your arms, right? It's really lovely to look at the white and tender look.

Looking at this little appearance, it is somewhat similar to the second boy in my family. If I didn't know clearly that I have given birth to two children in my life, I would have misunderstood whether this is my child who is living abroad!

By the way, my second kid is naughty. He climbs trees to dig bird nests, fishes in rivers, pulls old gentleman's beard, and rides on his father's neck. Sad to see.

Fortunately, this child still has a weakness, that is, he is afraid of hearing the cry of a woman, otherwise, I feel like my life is over because of such a wicked obstacle! "

The grandmother hugged her grandson and glanced at the son-in-law who was told by her mother that she couldn't lift her head and dared not look this way with a blushing face, and coaxed the old lady with a smile: "You are still young, the child is only seven years old, and I will teach you slowly in the future. That's it, don't worry, don't hit the child."

Shi Yan knew as soon as he heard it, the old lady was confused and confused. Thinking about the fact that when she saw her grandmother in the capital, the other party seemed to be in good condition. It must have been the old lady who came to see her family when she was sober. Bar! It is not easy for the elderly.

The family didn't know the fact that Master Qian was still alive, so Shi Yan didn't tell everyone about the encounter with Master Qian, and only asked people to go to the city in private to inquire about one thing.

When He Dashan saw his son coming home, he finally rescued him from the embarrassing situation, and took Shi Yan to discuss business affairs: "Isn't my father organizing the establishment of a wine trade association?

There are basically no problems in the southern provinces, and the rest in the north, follow your uncle's progress, and my father is also following up, but my father feels that the prestige of the chamber of commerce is still not enough, and we need to do something to stimulate it and let the locals Businessmen understand that our chamber of commerce can resist things at critical moments and give them some confidence. "

Shi Yan suggested: "There is really no good opportunity, it can only be created artificially."

He Dashan was also a little moved, but before the two of them started to implement the plan, the emperor brought luxurious and soft pillows to the two sleepy people.

The outside world did not know the relationship between Hejia Guojiu and the royal family in Luo'an County, so it was stunned by an imperial decree from the emperor, which caused a sensation no less than ten years ago when the emperor stopped in Huaian County next door, which made the locals feel That kind of pride. That is to say, it feels like it can blow for decades.

The emperor decreed that the twenty-three flavors of the Hejia fruit wine should be included in the tribute, and the tribute should be paid every year, which is the royal recognition of the Hejia fruit wine.

This is considered to have completely established the position of Hejia fruit wine in the wine industry.

But no one thought that the He family would risk death to refuse such a great honor, the reason turned out to be because "after paying tribute to the royal family, ordinary people will not be able to taste it, my family's fruit wine is brewed for all the people in the world. , for the sake of having more flavors on the table of the people of the world, not for the nobles of the palace to enjoy the delicious food exclusively."

Everyone thinks the He family is stupid and cute. After all, your family's fruit wine has become a royal tribute. In the past two years, more than 80 flavors have been released, of which 23 are tribute to the royal family, and the rest can be earned. It is full of pots, and at the same time, you can develop other side businesses. No matter whether this side business has anything to do with fruit wine, as long as it has a relationship with the royal family, you are not afraid of not making money.

Disrespectful to resist the decree, not knowing what the consequences are, everyone knows what the consequences are, and everyone is waiting for the punishment of the He family by the royal family. The "Xiang Piao Shi Li" plaque was hung on the door of the Hejia Restaurant by the officials of the Ministry of Rites all the way.

As the news spread, the reputation of Hejia Guojiu reached its peak, and the emperor also took advantage of this to gain a wave of favorability among the people.

Uncle and Cousin Shiliang are very busy just processing orders in various places. The winemaking workshop in Xishui Village is far from enough for the market. factory.

When the factory is fully operational, it can support almost 80% of the idle residents in Luo'an County, and the scale is quite spectacular.

He Dashan got his wish and became the first national president of the Wine Merchant Association. His reputation was unprecedentedly high. He had a royal and mysterious background behind him, and his efficiency in handling things was much higher.

Basically, everyone who has drunk Hejia fruit wine can tell a story about how the head of the He family refused royal tribute for ordinary people all over the world, and praised and praised the performance of the He family and the royal family in this matter. .

In fact, the reason for He Dashan's disrespect for resisting the decree is very simple. He just wants to gather enough fruit wines in 100 flavors to celebrate the old lady's 70th birthday next year.

Originally, it was very close to this goal, but after being interrupted by the emperor, 23 flavors were distributed all at once.

Since then, Shi Yan felt that his life was very peaceful, except that his mother's newborn brother was very clingy, especially loved clinging to him, the more he grew up, the more noisy he would become, and his voice became hoarse when he couldn't see Shi Yan, an older brother for a long time. , everything is in harmony with Shi Yan's mind.

Until one night, there was a scream of killing on the street outside, and the sound quickly disappeared on the corner of the street, without attracting too many people's attention, even the concierge of the He family was not awakened by the sound.

Shi Yan had a hunch in his heart, put on his clothes, and asked people to open the door to check outside. Sure enough, he found a child who had learned to walk in a basket at the door.

The child is in tatters and can't see the clothes hanging on his body, which can be used to keep warm, but if you look closely, you will find that the clothes are clean and tattered, and the skin is white and tender. , Chubby, he was well protected at first glance, and he didn't seem to suffer much.

The child was very quiet. When he saw Shi Yan, he didn't say a word. He only stared at Shi Yan with a pair of big round eyes. His eyes were full of curiosity. He then squeezed out a silver **** with no discernible shape, and stretched out his hands towards Shi Yan.

The concierge behind Shi Yan was stunned, pointed at the child and whispered, "Master, this child doesn't seem to be able to speak yet. Could it be a mute..."

The following words disappeared in Shi Yan's indifferent eyes.

Shi Yan stuffed the child into the basket and carried it through the door. He said to the people around him, "Don't disturb the family, go and find Wang Cheng. I'll wait for him in the study."

After seeing Wang Cheng who came in a hurry, Shi Yan asked straight to the point: "How is the matter that I asked you to inquire about a few days ago?"

Wang Cheng nodded: "Young master, you asked the young man to have no children and daughters, a gentle personality, a good reputation among the neighbors, and a family who intends to buy a child, just happens to have a family in the east of the city, the surname is Wang, and the family has little wealth. The husband and wife are two. The relationship is very good. It is said that the husband injured his body when he went out to work and could not bear children. Such a family would be good for the children. "

Shi Yan glanced at him and didn't know anything. He was lying in the big basket, dragging the sleeping child by the corner of his clothes, carefully pulling out the corner of his clothes from the other's tender hands, and directly handing the basket to Wang Cheng: " Send it over overnight, how can you say that you know what you have in mind?"

When Wang Cheng carefully left with the basket in his hand, Shi Yan played with the silver **** that he gave to Master Qian and was brought back by the child, and instructed the people who were guarding the outside world, "When it's dawn, let me go to the county government office. Ask the county magistrate what happened at night."

The county magistrate attached great importance to Shi Yan's affairs. When Shi Yan had just eaten breakfast, the county magistrate personally came to him to explain.

The two chatted while eating, and the county magistrate simply told Shi Yan what happened at night: "A few months ago, a group of killers fell here, and they have been chasing a man with a child. I thought they would just leave when they left. I won't come back, who knows that those people returned to Luo'an County last night."

Because of the presence of the Queen Mother and Prince Yu, the two giant Buddhas in Luo'an County, the outside is loose and the inside is tight, and every move that takes place in the county seat is under the control of the county magistrate.

The magistrate naturally knew what Shi Yan had done last night. After all, he didn't plan to act without anyone knowing.

The county magistrate reminded lightly: "The man with the scar on his face led the killer away, and someone sent the child to your door.

In the end, the two of them were captured alive by the killer. Those people did not find their children and left Luo'an County overnight. They probably won't be coming back. "

Shi Yan: "Do you know who did it?"

The magistrate's face was pure and innocent: "Why do you have to make it difficult for you to be an official?"

This is the meaning of knowing but not being able to say it. If you want to come to the county magistrate to know what the emperor can know, Shi Yan guessed that the uncle's face must be very exciting after learning the news.
