"Xiaobao, what you said is true? What big names do you know? Fan Xiaolin came back to her senses and couldn't help asking.

Wei Bao smiled trickily, and as he spoke, he shook his index finger at the sky: "When have I ever lied to someone?" I can't say it for the time being, anyway, it's a big guy that the horse bandits will scruple about! ”

"Well, if there is really an official of the Wei Command Department to support Xiaobao, the horse bandits will indeed be afraid, no matter how powerful the silk is, it can't carry the officers and soldiers!" Fan Lao Pimple agreed.

"Xiaobao is really amazing, we are all panicked when we see it, Xiaobao can know the official master of the command department at a young age?" Wang Zhihui couldn't help but admire.

"Is it true? Who the hell is it? Vedakon was curious.

Huang Ying also tugged on Wei Bao's clothes: "Xiaobao didn't deceive people, right?" Are you afraid that your mother won't let you Shanhaiguan, and make up nonsense to coax your mother to rest assured? ”

"Don't ask around, mother, when have I ever lied to someone? Are you my mother? So what do you say about me? Am I a man of nonsense? Wei Bao smiled: "Scattered, I'm in a hurry, I miss the time that people have made with me, there will be big trouble!" ”

"It's okay to go, you bring a few more people, isn't there a guard? Let them come along! Vedacon finally relented.

"Yes, bring more people." Huang Ying echoed. Everyone also agreed, and they all felt that bringing three people was too little.

"Didn't you say that? It's the same with more people. Wei Bao took a step back: "Brother Chunshi, Brother Big Head, and Liu Jintang, the three of you should also go with me." Brother Sanzi, you take care of your family, Zhang Haobo, you take care of the escort team, and strictly prevent someone from making trouble in Benjia. ”

Liu Chunshi, Fan Datou, Zhang Haobo, Luo Sanzi and Liu Jintang hurriedly agreed.

Wei Bao smiled and said to Wei Dakang and Huang Ying: "It's okay now, right?" I'll ask them to be more careful on the way, and if something goes wrong, I'll turn back immediately. ”

Fan Datou and Zhang Haobo were a little flattered when they saw that Gongzi was willing to take them with them, and they comforted Wei Dakang and Huang Ying repeatedly. Neither of them entered the formal establishment, but only a temporary establishment, and they both held back their strength to get ahead under Childe.

Although Fan Xiaolin was still a little worried, seeing that Wei Bao was so anxious to go to Shanhaiguan, her thinking was easily swayed by Wei Bao, so she also helped persuade Huang Ying.

Wei Dakang and Huang Ying saw that Wei Bao had arranged it, and they both said so, although they were still not at ease, they did not stop Wei Bao anymore, and now Wei Bao's prestige is rising, even parents no longer regard Wei Bao as a child.

Because of the hurry, Wei Bao took the carriage, Li Nan, Peng Mingbo and Gao Du sat in front of the carriage and drove, this time they did not run behind, Wei Bao also additionally agreed that Liu Chunshi, Fan Datou and Zhang Haobo each rode a horse, the scene was not small.

It was windy and cold along the way, and I didn't encounter bandits.

In fact, Wei Bao was not worried about meeting horse bandits, he just sent a group of people away in the morning, and the speed of information transmission was so slow in this era, he estimated that the gang of horse bandits would return to the cottage first, and then the people from the cottage would go to Shanhaiguan to send a letter to the eldest son of the Wu family, and when the eldest son of the Wu family knew the result, it would be at least tomorrow, so there would be no accidents today, he was just worried that someone would follow him.

Several of the entourage were vigilant all the way, constantly looking around, and no one was following, which made Wei Bao feel a little relieved, obviously the opponent had not put him in a position of special importance.

Before dinner, Wei Bao successfully rushed to Shanhaiguan, looking at the majestic and magnificent Guancheng from the gap in the car window, which made Wei Bao feel a little emotional, the waiting days in the past few days are too difficult, and today was made such a fuss by the horse bandits, almost depressed to the extreme, if it weren't for the news of Yang Hongyi's appointment, he would still be rolling pancakes over and over on the bed in his big wooden house.

Now that he has entered Shanhaiguan, the blood of hope seems to be re-injected into his body, covering his body, making his whole person full of expectation and vitality, and career is the best stimulant for men! Secretly cheer yourself up, you must make a name for yourself in this life.

A carriage and three horses stopped in front of Shanhailou, and a small servant came out to receive it, in this era, a horse is the identity of a person, not to mention a carriage and three horses, Shanhailou's little guy thought that it was a person from the official face, which provoked Uncle Sun Jiu and Sister Fang to stretch their heads and look together.

Sister Fang saw a young man dressed in black bear skin coming down from the carriage, with red lips and white teeth, a face like a crown of jade, an extraordinary appearance and temperament, and a jade tree in the wind, and couldn't help but feel moved, this man was Wei Bao, whom she hadn't seen for a few days.

Although Wei Bao is only 14 years old, his face is born and tender, but his mature and stable temperament makes it easy for people to look at him a little older, thus ignoring his age. Especially a girl like Sister Fang who is waiting for a boudoir is even more difficult to resist a boy like Wei Bao, who is handsome on the outside and stable on the inside.

It was extremely cold when he got out of the carriage, and the north wind blew his face, Wei Bao wrapped the black bear skin big hat tightly around his body, and pressed the bear skin big hat, which Wang Qiuya sewed for him yesterday. Wei Bao originally used a tiger skin as a mat, and also wanted to use a bear skin to make a blanket to cover his body, Wang Qiuya felt that it was too wasteful, and Wei Bao's house was a fireplace and a warm kang, so he didn't need to cover it so thickly, so he made a big hat and a hat for him. When Wei Bao came out of Jinshan, Wang Qiuya remembered and sent it to him to wear.

Wei Bao's temperament is already outstanding, and this extremely expensive black bear skin is worn on his body, which is even more luxurious, looks extraordinarily stylish, and adds a lot of momentum to him! There is already a faint feeling of excellence between gestures, and Sister Fang'er's pink face turned red and hurriedly twisted her pink face away.

Uncle Sun Jiu was extremely uncomfortable when he saw Sister Fang'er's shy little daughter's appearance, except for Wei Bao, he had never seen Sister Fang do this to any man, and sighed secretly.

"Good shopkeeper Sun!" Wei Bao entered the hall of Shanhailou under the courteous guidance of Wei Gongzi on the left and Wei Gongzi on the right, and said hello to Uncle Sun Jiu in a chic manner.

"It's Gongzi Wei, it's a long way off." Uncle Sun Jiu coped with the non-salty and non-indifferent system, far less enthusiastic than the previous few times, "Yang Gongzi sent someone to book a private room, saying that if Wei Gongzi arrives first, please enter the private room and wait." ”

Wei Bao nodded, secretly thinking that Yang Hongyi hadn't arrived yet, and he was not in a hurry to go up, and when he arrived at the counter, he smiled at Sister Fang'er: "Sister Fang'er is good." ”

Sister Fang set her eyes on Wei Bao at this time, as if she had just known that Wei Bao was coming, and said with a smile: "You are here." ”

Wei Bao saw Sister Fang'er's expression, and he knew it in his heart, and he could clearly feel Sister Fang'er's good impression of herself, this kind of girl's shyness, the sweet feeling of the other party's first love, if Wei Bao, who came over, couldn't see it, he would have been practicing in modern times for more than 20 years in vain, hehe smiled, secretly You are not deaf, I didn't come, did you know until now? In the end, the appearance is higher, the benefits are more, and the difficulty of picking up girls has plummeted.

Sister Fang saw that Wei Bao smiled and didn't speak, her cheeks were red, she actually turned her gaze, and fiddled with the abacus beads in her hand, "I heard that Yang Gongzi wants to meet you in our Shanhai Building?" ”

Another nonsense, didn't your father say it just now? Some of the habits and behaviors of the girl in her first love are all possessed, which makes Wei Bao feel even more funny, and she snorted, which can be regarded as a response.

"I heard you have an elixir? The whole Shanhaiguan spread all over the country. I guess he may want to see you for the elixir, you have to be very careful when dealing with Yang Gongzi, I heard that he has a great temper, and it is not easy to offend the Yang family. Sister Fang'er's beautiful eyes looked at Wei Bao and whispered. Sister Fang couldn't understand why Wei Bao could always make some strange things, she was not familiar with medicine, and she was secretly worried about Wei Bao.

Although it is a very normal conversation, I don't know why there is a kind of unspeakable ambiguity, which makes Wei Bao's heart warm, and it makes Sister Fang'er's heart beat wildly, not only wanting to do this for a while, but in front of his father and the guys in the store, as well as the entourage around Wei Bao, he is embarrassed to say more.

"I'll be careful." Wei Bao smiled indifferently, "I'll go up first, no matter how we talk about this meal, it will be my account, and I don't need Yang Gongzi to treat you." ”

Uncle Sun Jiu finally caught up with the opportunity to speak, "This Wei Gongzi can rest assured, Yang Gongzi never needs others to entertain him when he eats, as long as he is there, this money will not be paid by others." ”

Oh?

This is very unexpected by Wei Bao, although he has not officially met Yang Gongzi, and last time he was outside the door, he only heard Yang Gongzi's voice, but from the mouth of everyone, he actually had an outline of Yang Gongzi's image, and he thought that Yang Gongzi was the kind of extremely good woman, extremely greedy and domineering. Now it seems that this is not the case, just because he never let others treat, it can be seen that this person has a certain city! For sons of their rank, eating and playing with women doesn't cost much silver, and the more they pay attention to such small details, the more they refuse to be easily benefited, the more ruthless they will be in a big place! This is the Webbo experience.

Wei Bao nodded at Uncle Sun Jiu, "Shopkeeper Sun, I'll go up." Then he said to Fan Datou beside him: "You and Gao both stay, and when Yang Gongzi comes, come and call me, and I will greet you." ”

Fan Datou and Gao both hurriedly bowed down and agreed: "Yes, Childe." ”

When Uncle Sun Jiu saw that Wei Bao was so young, he was thoughtful and sophisticated, and his subordinates respected Wei Bao so much, he couldn't help but change his attitude towards Wei Bao. The first few times Uncle Sun Jiu saw Wei Bao, although Wei Bao's subordinates also respected Wei Bao, but this time it seems to be very different, an old businessman like him is extremely concerned about these details, his eyes are very poisonous, and he is used to seeing all kinds of people, etc., no matter how powerful people are, how rich and noble people are, they may not be able to really tame their subordinates, and the respect of the servants for the master is related to the size of the power, but it is not an absolute relationship. Uncle Sun Jiu felt that what could make his subordinates so respectful must have something unknown to the public, which was to convince the public!

Wei Bao took Liu Chunshi, Zhang Haobo, Li Nan and Peng Mingbo upstairs, Wei Bao was not worried that Peng Mingbo and Gao would be recognized, Peng Mingbo was dressed as a rich boy last time, wearing his clothes, and now he is dressed in coarse cloth clothes, and Peng Mingbo's appearance is ordinary, and he belongs to the inconspicuous type in the pile of people. When Gao Du went back to Yihong Courtyard, he just played a small supporting role by Peng Mingbo's side, and after the incident, no one would remember such a person.

"Are you so familiar with this Wei Gongzi now?" After Uncle Sun Jiu disappeared into the corridor with Wei Bao, he whispered to Sister Fang beside him.

Sister Fang's face flushed, and she immediately realized what her father meant, and responded softly: "How familiar can you be?" As far as our guests are concerned, they have come five or six times, right? Aren't you familiar with the fact that you brought us such a big deal last time? ”

"Hehe, I'm not as familiar as you! I think that although this Wei Gongzi is young, it is really interesting, but I don't know if he has fame? Uncle Sun Jiu looked casual.

"How do I know if people have fame? Wei Gongzi has a chapter of exports, a dignified appearance, and at least he is a talent. Sister Fang listened to Uncle Sun Jiu's praise of Wei Bao, and she was happy for no reason, so she made up a talent for Wei Bao's brain.

Uncle Sun Jiu smiled: "Not necessarily, right? Have you asked Wei Gongzi? There are not a few talents in Shanhaiwei in total, and the students from the county school study together on weekdays, and they often come to us to drink together, if this Wei Gongzi is really a talent, why have he never seen it before? ”

"I'm fine, why do you ask people if they have fame?" Sister Fang was stunned by Uncle Sun Jiu's words for a few seconds, and then defended: "Maybe Gongzi Wei doesn't like to make trouble with a group of people?" Are you sure that you can recognize all the talents in Yongping Mansion? Besides, Wei Gongzi is so young, even if he is not a talent now, he wants to participate in the scientific examination for a while, and the fame of talent and lifting people is not to explore the bag? Doesn't it mean that now that Gonggong Wei is in power, the court officials are replaced very frequently? It is precisely when there is a shortage of people that will increase the township test this year? Wei Gongzi won the promotion this year, and next year he will enter high school and become a scholar, and after the Golden Palace faces the saint, it is unknown that the title of the gold list will enter Beijing as an official. ”

Burst.

Uncle Sun Jiu listened to Sister Fang'er's words, and couldn't help but choke and cough twice, should you rely on the imperial examination to stir-fry? Want to fry a few and fry a few out?

Sister Fang'er blushed with shame, and hurriedly stroked Uncle Sun Jiu's back, knowing that what she said was a bit 'too much', if everyone can be named on the gold list in only two years, isn't Daming's imperial examination too child's play?

Uncle Sun Jiu coughed, wiped his mouth, and looked at Sister Fang: "Let's not talk about whether it can be as easy as you said, if you really go to high school in a row, look at this Wei Gongzi has some business skills, he is a flexible person, when the time comes, people's horizons will be higher, will they take a fancy to you?" ”

"Dad, what are you talking nonsense? What do I want him to do with me? I'm a few years older than him. Sister Fang was so clearly broken by Uncle Sun Jiu, stomped on her pink feet, and turned her back.

"If you haven't thought about it, why do you blurt out how many years older than him? Dad is not old and stupid. I can't see my daughter's thoughts, didn't she live this age in vain? Uncle Sun Jiu laughed softly: "It's just that we businessmen, looking at things farther, it is enough to find a child from a scholarly family with plenty of food and clothing, and we are not short of silver." Dad has thought about it, your future husband must at least be a good man. Otherwise, can Dad push away so many people who come to the door to propose marriage? ”

"Dad, why are you here again? I'm only 17, and you've been proposing marriage all day long, making me feel like I can't get married. Sister Fang said angrily.

"Several of your uncle's sisters are married, your cousin became a mother at the age of 15, and you are still young at 17?" Uncle Sun Jiu said with a straight face: "Within this year, I must find a suitable person to marry you, otherwise it will provoke some rich businessmen and crazy bees and butterflies in the official face." ”

"Dad, if you want to say that, then I'll go back now, and I'll hide in the room in the future to embroider and paint, and I won't show my face if I don't come out, it's all done, right?" Sister Fang said.

"That's Cheng, it's okay if you don't need Zhang Luo in front, you're here, I'm still worried all day long. But even if you don't show up, you don't have to look for your in-laws? Uncle Sun Jiu continued to guide the topic to Wei Bao's head, not letting his daughter divert from the topic: "Then if Wei Gongzi doesn't participate in the scientific examination this year, or participates in the scientific examination, but he can't even pass the test, how can he be promoted?" Wait a few more years, can you wait until you are in your twenties and not get married? ”

"Lift people, you always say lift people. Why do you have to lift people? Don't you know a few words yourself? None of the three brothers were admitted to Xiucai? Besides, those who can pass the exam are at least thirty people, right? Forty or fifty, sixty or seventy, how much older than me? I can't figure it out longer than you're old. Sister Fang retorted. knew that Uncle Sun Jiu wanted to talk about Wei Bao again, but Uncle Sun Jiu didn't say it explicitly, and she didn't take the initiative to mention Wei Bao. What does Wei Bao think of himself? What do you think of Wei Bao? She was ignorant in her heart, and now she was very confused by what her father said.

"Bigger is bigger, what's there? It hurts even more, you know? Our family just suffered a loss without fame! Your eldest brother and second brother are not reading materials, they can only do business, right? No matter how big the business is, what can it do? Isn't it contemptible? Look at your third brother, he was admitted to a child, and his father can also donate an official to him, if he doesn't become an official, who can afford it? Do you say fame is useful? Uncle Sun Jiu listened to Sun Yuefang's rebuttal, and immediately brought out the tirade that was often on his lips, he already had a complete theoretical system for persuading his daughter.

"Listening to what you said, it seems that there are a lot of people who are easy to find, even if there are such suitable people, can people look down on our family?" Sun Yuefang argued.

"Don't look down on our family? What's wrong with our family? If you want silver, there is silver, and there is an old and important minister like Sun Chengzong in the clan! What's wrong? As long as you want to find it, there is nothing you can't find. Uncle Sun Jiu said disapprerovingly. The daughter is married, this is Uncle Sun Jiu's biggest concern, the three sons have already married, only the youngest daughter is by his side, he has already thought about it, and after his daughter gets married, he will give the business to the eldest and second child for another three or five years, and provide for the elderly with peace of mind.
