The car stopped in front of an old house.

The house is very dilapidated, but from the appearance, you can still see the previous style.

"Just live here?" Meng Shaoyuan asked as soon as he got out of the car.

"Yes."

"It's old."

"But the person who lives here, can you imagine how beautiful he used to be?"

Wu Jingyi came to the gate and found that the gate was not closed.

She pushed open the door and walked straight in with Meng Shaoyuan.

"Is the fourth son at home?" Wu Jingyi shouted as soon as she entered.

"Who?"

A man under fifty, mentally exhausted, walked out.

The kaftan he was wearing was very old, but those with good eyes could see at a glance that it was actually made of expensive "ringing cloud yarn" fabric.

Those who can afford to wear "Xiangyun Veil" are either rich or expensive.

Although this person doesn't look very good recently, there is a look of arrogance clearly written on his face, and some people are like this, and they don't fall down.

No matter how depressed he is, the momentum will definitely not be less.

"Fourth son, our Meng Shaoyuan Boss Meng has come to see you." Wu Jingyi politely took a box of wooden box gift snacks with the words "Lao Banzhai" written on it in front of her:

"It's a little meaning, and please ask the fourth son to smile."

"Oh, you are Meng Shaoyuan, you seem to be quite famous in Shanghai." The fourth prince glanced at Meng Shaoyuan, and didn't seem to take this king of Shanghai in his eyes at all.

At that time, Meng Shaoyuan and Wu Jingyi were invited to sit down on the stone bench in the courtyard, and Wu Jingyi's snacks were placed on the stone table.

"Tea!" The fourth prince shouted.

After a while, a middle-aged woman dressed in ordinary clothes took out a teapot and bowl.

"Fourth Lady."

Wu Jingyi immediately got up.

Good guy, to what extent is this fourth son down, and he actually has to do it with his wife himself.

"Ah, a few slow users."

The fourth lady put down the tea bowl and left in a hurry.

"Boss Meng, let me introduce you." Wu Jingyi immediately said: "This is the famous Sheng Enyi Sheng Fourth Son!" ”

Sheng Enyi!

During the Republic of China, there was a saying of "the four sons of the Republic of China". Among them, such as Zhang Boju, is a noble son who treasures countless rare antiques. But if you talk about "extravagance", or extravagance, no matter which one of the four sons of the Republic of China is probably no match for Sheng Enyi.

Sheng Enyi's father is the famous "richest man in the late Qing Dynasty" Sheng Xuanhuai!

As a wealthy giant in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China, Sheng Enyi can be said to have grown up. His father, Sheng Xuanhuai, although not as famous as Li Hongzhang and Zhang Zhidong and others, was also a representative of the Westernization Movement and a big celebrity around the Empress Dowager Cixi.

While the officialdom was proud, Sheng Xuanhuai was a little struggling in the major matter of succession.

He had three main families in his life, and the first wife gave birth to three sons and three daughters for him, but the sons all died young; The second wife hanged herself after giving birth to only one daughter; The third wife gave birth to a daughter and two sons, one of whom also died young.

And the only surviving eldest son of the Sheng family, "Sheng Laosi", is Sheng Enyi.

How much does the Sheng family spoil this son? Sheng Xuanhuai, who is nearly fifty years old and has such a son, said that as long as he wants, he can do anything.

Together with the Humble Administrator's Garden in Suzhou, the Summer Palace in Beijing and the Summer Resort in Chengde, Hebei, the Suzhou Lingering Garden, which is known as the "Four Famous Gardens in China", is the private residence left by Sheng Xuanhuai to Sheng Enyi.

And the name "Sheng Enyi" was also taken by the Empress Dowager Cixi herself.

There are mountains of gold and silver sitting under the buttocks, and there are still red flags at home, Sheng Enyi should be able to carry forward the Sheng family. But in fact, he was drowning in the wine pool of pleasure in the future, and lived a life of extreme luxury. He became the first person to own an imported Mercedes-Benz luxury car in Shanghai, where wealthy businessmen gathered.

To highlight his distinctiveness, he also ordered a sterling silver sedan steering wheel engraved with his name. His license plate is also a "4444" that can be seen at a glance as his identity as "Sheng Lao Si".

And not only does he enjoy this unique luxury car, but his aunts and wives also have the standard configuration of luxury houses and luxury cars.

However, compared to his actions in the casino, these luxury cars and mansions are not considered a lot of money.

According to the memories of his fox friends at the gambling table, Sheng Enyi used to sleep during the day, and only got up at four or five o'clock in the afternoon to start the day. And his life is mainly gambling.

So after getting up, Sheng Enyi often has to count how much money he will use next.

If the family doesn't have enough money, then you definitely have to get it. But at this time, the bank was basically off work, so he saved the country and directly took the antiques at home to the pawnshop to exchange them for money. When the bank opened the next day, he ordered someone to withdraw money to take the antiques from the pawnshop home.

So at that time, his gamblers jokingly called him using the pawnshop as his bank.

Sheng Enyi's biggest gamble in the casino was to gamble on an entire alley with more than 100 houses in the area of Huanghe Road in Shanghai, and played a game with Lu Xiaojia, another wealthy man in Shanghai at that time.

As a result, the entire alley house belonged to Lu Xiaojia.

According to Sheng Enyi's way of living, after the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, Sheng Enyi, who originally had a lot of money and almost became synonymous with "big money", basically lost all his family's savings.

At this time, he has long since lost his former glory. It is said that Sheng Enyi is so poor that he can't even afford to buy tickets if he wants to go to the park.

A generation of huge riches has fallen to this point, which can be regarded as sad.

But after all, he was the son of the richest man in China, and Sheng Enyi's share of style is still there: "What is Boss Meng's visit to the Mansion today?" ”

People say "Humble House", but he doesn't.

Meng Shaoyuan smiled faintly: "I heard the name of the fourth prince earlier, and I came to visit today, and I specially prepared a little heart, and I hope that the fourth prince will not dislike it." ”

Sheng Enyi didn't take a second look: "Lao Banzhai's dim sum is still good, but that's it." ”

Meng Shaoyuan smiled and said, "The fourth prince doesn't open it to take a look?" ”

Sheng Enyi was stunned.

How can there be a reason for a guest to open a gift in front of the host?

Although I was puzzled, I still opened the snack box.

When I saw it, I was stunned.

There was a snack in the box, but there were ten small yellow croakers.

"Ten taels of gold, please also ask the fourth prince to smile."

In the past, ten taels of gold were not in Sheng Enyi's eyes at all, but now his situation is simply a life-saving money for Sheng Enyi.

What's more, this Meng Shaoyuan was generous, and when he met, it was ten taels of gold, which was a bit of the style of his fourth son when he was at his most beautiful.

Sheng Enyi likes to deal with people who are generous: "Boss Meng is polite, courteous to others, there must be something to ask for, say, what is the matter with Boss Meng?" ”

Meng Shaoyuan didn't hide it: "It's nothing special, I have a friend who is coming to Shanghai, and this friend doesn't have any other hobbies, just like to gamble a few times before looking for a few girls." ”

Sheng Enyi frowned: "What do you mean?" ”

"The fourth prince is an expert in this area, so I want to ask the fourth prince to accompany this friend of mine." Meng Shaoyuan said slowly: "All the expenses will be borne by me." ”

Sheng Enyi's eyes lit up.

Since he was down, how long has he not enjoyed this kind of extravagant life?

And someone who helps them pay for fun?

"Boss Meng isn't joking with me, is he?" Sheng Enyi is still not at ease.

"No joke."

Meng Shaoyuan said unhurriedly: "I will send someone to wait for you, if you want to use the money, just talk to him!" ”

"In that case, how can I not help?"

Sheng Enyi couldn't help but be overjoyed.

originally wanted to keep Meng Shaoyuan and Wu Jingyi for dinner, but the two repeatedly refused.

Meng Shaoyuan told him that he just waited for the news at home, and then got up to say goodbye.

This time it's the right person.

When it comes to eating, drinking, and having fun, who can compare to this fourth son?

"Looks like you're going to lose a lot of money this time." As soon as she returned to the car, Wu Jingyi said with a smile: "His fourth son spends money like running water." ”

"Don't be afraid, there is always a number of money to spend, and you can use the money to settle the moral examiner, the value is that the gambling money is not counted." Meng Shaoyuan thought for a while: "You go to Sun Qingsheng and ask him to notify a few casinos, seeing that Sheng Enyi has arrived, don't let him lose, just let him win a little, and all the money lost by the casino will be reimbursed by me." ”

"Got it."

"Xiao Zhong."

"Yes." Xiao Zhong in the co-pilot seat hurriedly turned around.

"You just follow Sheng Enyi." Meng Shaoyuan instructed: "Go back, go to Assistant Wu to get some more money, your only task is to accompany Sheng Enyi to eat, drink and have fun, when it's time to pay, you don't need to be instructed, you just rush to pay." ”

"Ah, what kind of mission is this?"

Xiao Zhong muttered dissatisfied.

He went from Tianjin to Chongqing, and then from Chongqing to Shanghai, and he was thinking about killing the enemy with Director Meng and avenging Stationmaster Ma.

Eat, drink and be merry? What kind of mission is this?

"Xiaozhong, you have firmly remembered it for me." Meng Shaoyuan knew Xiao Zhong's thoughts: "Our mission is not just to play with the Japanese, sometimes, such a task is as important. ”

Wu Jingyi said: "Xiaozhong, you have been here for too short a time, you don't know Shanghai, the situation in Shanghai is more complicated, eating, drinking and having fun is also a science, you follow Sheng Enyi to study hard." As you remember, whether this mission can be successfully completed is related to whether Director Meng can successfully become the head of Meng District. And the key is in this fourth son. ”

"Hey, don't worry, I'll do it well."

Xiao Zhong still doesn't understand in his heart, can he make Director Meng the district chief by accompanying people to eat, drink, and play with women? But who let this be what Director Meng ordered?

Before coming, Mrs. repeatedly instructed that everything in Shanghai should be obeyed by Brother Meng.

Meng Shaoyuan groaned: "It's a trivial matter to accompany the commissioner to eat and have fun, but I'm worried that the commissioner will cause me some trouble when he comes to the flowery world of Shanghai." ”

"I'll send someone to keep an eye on him again." Wu Jingyi quickly said: "Staring at death, we can still react as soon as there is any situation." ”

"Okay, I'll leave this matter to you!"
