AD 1042

Chapter 36 Huashan Visitors

Zhao Ze stayed overnight in Hou's house. The next morning, he met Hou's father and wife Zhao. After sitting for a while, he got up and said goodbye.

Outside Hou's house, Sister Lan came for a long time. She was eating some water and wine with Wu Er in the restaurant next to her. When she saw Zhao Ze coming out, she immediately put down her bowls and chopsticks and ran to meet her.

I didn't see Sister Lan all night. Zhao Ze felt strange. I remember that when I left Shu County the day before yesterday, Sister Lan dressed very enchantingly. Why did she suddenly become quiet today, dressed simply and simple? The only difference was that her chest was full, her pretty face was full, and her eyebrows always inadvertently showed the look of a little woman.

"Forget it, don't look at it." Zhao Ze quickly packed up his eyes, left Sister Lan's chest, walked over a few steps, pulled Sister Lalan's sleeve and asked, "Sister Lan, my business has been done, and the money has been loaded. Do you think we should do business first or do it after drinking!"

Sister Lan's heart fluctuated. There were not a few serious men who dared to talk with her sleeves. Zhao Ze was the first one. Is this man just in vain, or... Still have feelings for me!

Sister Lan suddenly lost her mind and didn't hear Zhao Ze's words clearly. By being close to Zhao Ze, she threw her charming eyes, shrugged her breasts, and asked provocatively, "Brother, you see, it's better to do the business first. It's not too late to eat after finishing it. Sister Lan, I... I'll accompany you to get drunk."

"Let's get drunk after finishing the business. Let's go. You head ahead and lead the way!" Zhao Ze urged.

Just before Zhao Ze and his party arrived at the Shangguan Mansion, Shangguan Baoer was split up with her father Shangguan Qing. The reason was that Shangguan Baoer wanted to go to Huashan with her master, Sister Yujian. Her father disagreed. Baoer insisted on running away from home and begging the master to take her away. However, it was difficult for the Qing official to break the housework, and Sister Yujian was not easy to speak. It's still up to their father and daughter to make trouble!

Shangguan Qing looked up at his daughter riding on the beam. Her feet were swinging. She was so angry that she jumped and shouted, "What kind of style, what kind of style, come down, come down for me."

Shangguan Baoer pouted her little and glanced at his father angrily. Then she bent her waist and touched her hand. She took off a green satin embroidered shoe and threw it away according to her father under the beam. The slender bow shoe hit Shangguan Qing's head. After this, Shangguan Qing was really angry and grabbed the one. The embroidered shoes fell to the ground fiercely and shouted, "From now on, don't go back to this house. You can go wherever you go, whatever you want, whatever you want... Do whatever you want"

When Sister Lan knocked on the door ring, she was singing a big play in the Shangguan Mansion. First, Shangguan Qing left her daughter's room angrily. Next, Shangguan Qing rushed away with her head and chased five or six women, from the front hall to the backyard, then from the backyard to the garden, and finally to the guest room near the lotus pond, which shocked the imperial swordsman. Sister, senior sister Yujian relied on the honor that everyone was a woman who was easy to talk to talk to. She pulled the sisters to persuade them for a long time, and her mouth was dry. However, Shangguan Qing had to endure the pain and give up her love and agreed to her baby daughter's request to go to Huashan with Sister Yujian for a while.

When the maid Ziyan came to the back house to report, Shangguan Qing got rid of the entanglement of the ladies and was eager to find something to do immediately. She happened to hear the maid say that Sister Lan from Shu County came to see her. Shangguan Qing quickly rushed to the front courtyard hall and told Ziyan to tell her husbands that he had something to meet guests and not to disturb her.

Zhao Ze sat in the living room for a long time and looked at the decorations in the room, one by one, just like visiting in a museum!

There are a lot of things in the house. After looking around, Zhao Ze's eyes fell on the wall. It's not that the blue and gray painted walls are special, but the calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall are very familiar.

Zhao Ze frowned and looked up. He saw a red green ink banner hanging on the east wall of the house, writing four bucket-sized fonts from top to bottom. The word was made of mad grass in one go, called: color is empty. Looking at the four-character motto on the west wall, it is empty or color, but what is different from before is that these four words are smooth and correct, generous and decent, and you can know at a glance that they are everyone's handwriting.

"Good handwriting, really good handwriting. I don't know which brother's handwriting. Do you really want an autograph?" Zhao Ze joked.

Before he said anything, someone answered, "Let this brother's stage laugh. The calligraphy and paintings in the room are all from the bottom. Listen to the accent of the brother's stage, it's not a local. Dare to ask your brother's name."

As soon as Zhao Ze turned around, a handsome middle-aged man appeared in front of him, wearing a soft-winged crown hat, wearing a blue shirt, wearing black cloth shoes, with his hands behind his back, and three wisps of ink floating on his chest. At first glance, he couldn't believe that he was Shangguan Qing, the most famous and most famous businessman in Luzhou.

However, in Shangguan Qing's eyes, he did not expect that the opposite was Zhao Ze, who was famous in Luzhou, with a pair of magical hands.

In the next introduction, Zhao Ze's eyes lit up, and his heart was very admiring. Originally, he thought that Shangguan Qing would look like a lewd ghost. Today, he had a lot of Li Bai's demeanor and preconceived. In his heart, he thought so, and there was also a little more respect on his mouth. "In Zhao Ze, I have heard the prestige of Shangguan's brother for a long time. Today, it is really extraordinary. Presumably, my brother is also full of poetry and books!"

Shangguan Qing's face was hot, and he was not too modest. He was very happy with Zhao Ze's flattery and hurriedly replied, "Brother Zhao is overreputed. Brother Yu can wait for this point. It's okay to see it at home. If you take it out, Brother Yu is afraid of being laughed at. Come, sit down, please sit down, let's sit down and talk." < /P>

The main guest seated in the hall again. Shangguan Qing sat in the master's seat, and Zhao Ze, Lan Jie and Wu Er stood behind Zhao Ze.

After the maid looked at the tea, Shangguan Qing opened his mouth and asked what was going on today.

Zhao Ze said, "I still need to talk about this matter with Sister Lan. He is just a companion."

Next, Sister Lan talked energetically with the young owner of the orchid building. First, she was polite and praised Shangguan Qing. When the good words were almost over, Sister Lan's words turned around. When it came to business, Shangguan Qing also understood, but it was about buying the orchid building in Shu County, but it was mentioned in Sister Lan's words. He wanted to make a deal for eight thousand taels, which made Shangguan Qing very dissatisfied.

"Sister Lan, Shu County Orchid Building is the second largest brothel in my Shangguan family in Luzhou. I don't know how much silver did Sister Lanhua Building in Luzhou Prefecture have been sold?"

When asked, Sister Lan was dumbfounded and held back for a long time before answering, "I've only been here for a few days. I haven't heard of who sold the orchid building in Luzhou Prefecture."

Shangguan Qing smiled secretly in his heart. He wanted to ask questions and deliberately pretended to be confused, so I'll tell you.

"Sister Lan, you are also an old man under my father. I also admire you very much, but do you know that the orchid building in my city was sold for a price of 100,000 taels a few days ago. As for who the buyer is, it's hard to tell you, but this price is true." /P>

"This..." Sister Lan panicked for a moment and didn't know how to say it.

Zhao Ze sat aside and looked at it for a while and found that it became more and more difficult to talk about it. It seemed that he had to talk about this matter in person. Thinking of this, Zhao Ze arched his hand and interrupted Shangguan Qing's thinking, "Brother Shangguan, please allow me to call Shangguan Brother as the eldest brother, okay?"

Shangguan Qing's mind did not turn around for a moment. He stayed on the spot in surprise. After a while, he recovered as before and stammered, "If... It's so good that the fool will give up."

"Big brother, please be worshipped by your younger brother." Zhao Ze said and got up and bowed deeply.

After Zhao Zeyi bowed, Shangguan Qing looked surprised. Obviously, he was unprepared. He thought that Zhao Ze was just talking, but it was true.

After bowing, Zhao Ze sat back in his chair and said to Shangguan Qing, "Big brother doesn't know that Sister Lan has been in the orchid building for so long. She has been the same shape as the orchid building for a long time, and so are the sisters inside. Today, I suddenly heard that the eldest brother was going to sell the orchid building. I really couldn't bear it. I was worried that the new owner could not treat the middle sister in the building well. Sister, so Sister Lan borrowed some money from the west. I hope you can accommodate me. The sisters of Orchid Building in Shu County will also remember it and never forget the great kindness of the eldest brother!"

Shangguan Qing was worried by Zhao Ze. In fact, he didn't want to sell it, but can he have both fish and bear's paw? If it's okay, but when he sees that the bear's paw is about to get it, what is the small fish? If it is really developed in the future, he wants as much as much as he wants, but if there is really such a day, what kind of fish as he wants? It's all high. Who will look at the prostitutes in the brothels?

But even so, even if he wants to be a kind person...

"Yes, why don't you be a good person?" Shangguan Qing suddenly woke up. The Buddha also said: Good deeds have good retributions, do good deeds and accumulate virtues, and cultivate good results in the next life. However, Shangguan Qing, I don't expect the afterlife. What I want is in front of me, yes, it is in front of me. If I do this, I guess I can have a good reputation in Shu County. As the saying goes, it's good. , good things don't come out of the house... However, it was strange that she couldn't get out of the house with Sister Lan's mouth. As soon as she thought about this, Shangguan Qing's eyebrows relaxed.

Zhao Ze saw it in his eyes and was determined in his heart!

When leaving the Shangguan government, three of the six big boxes brought by Zhao Ze were missing, which was 30,000 taels. Although Zhao Ze didn't care much, Sister Lan could see it clearly. The white silver poured out like running water. In the sun, the silver flashed and sounded, and his eyes were dazzled. If it hadn't been for standing at Zhao at that time. Behind Ze, she really wanted to rush up and roll on the pile of silver before leaving, but that was impossible. The previous inexplicable impulse passed away in an instant.

When Zhao Ze and his party left the Shangguan Mansion, Sister Lan was carrying the land deed document of the Orchid Building in Shu County. She was like a deer in her heart. She jumped fiercely and hit her fiercely. From time to time, her face was red and her eyes were full of tenderness. Yu Guang couldn't help aiming at Zhao Ze's back, but Wu Er always surrounded the front and back like a fart worm, and Sister Lan stamped angrily. Feet, I scolded Wu Er in my heart that he didn't have eyes.

In fact, Wu Er was intentional. From the moment he entered the upper government, he noticed Sister Lan's unusual expression. When Zhao Ze opened the box of silver to pay, Sister Lan's excited expression was deeply imprinted in Wu Er's mind, so he was actually surrounding him. Zhao Ze, he doesn't want to have many long-tongued women around the boss in the future.

When Zhao Ze left from the main gate of the Shangguan government, the senior sister Yujian and Shangguan Baoer just quietly came out of the side door. The two groups met unexpectedly in front of Mrs. Zhang's meat pie shop on the cross street.
