Chapter 157: Qin Huai Bayan
Yuan Rong clenched his hands into fists and said angrily: "That beast, I'..... I'll go find him. "Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info" got up and was about to leave, but before he took two steps, Yang Ning had already said lightly: "Who are you looking for?" Ding Yitu? Are you ready to use force with him or argue with him? ”
"I'm ......!"
Yang Ning sneered: "You are the young son of the Shangshu Mansion of the dignified Ministry of Rites, and you want to use force with the chief dart head of the Rising Sun Dart Bureau, not to mention whether you have the ability, even if you win, what can you do?" ”
Yuan Rong was stunned.
"Ding Yitu's strength, you know better than me." Yang Ning said slowly: "This is not a battle that can be divided between winners and losers. He smiled faintly and said: "Yuan Rong, if I say something you don't like to hear, if you really compare your strength, the young son of your Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Rites may not be able to compare with the head of the Rising Sun Dart Bureau." ”
Although Yuan Rong's eyes were annoyed, his expression darkened.
At this moment, he heard a voice in the distance: "Brother Yuan, is Brother Yuan over there?" ”
Yuan Rong was stunned, followed the sound, and saw that there was a painting boat approaching this side at some point, the distance between the two painting boats was extremely close, the painting boat over there was brilliantly lit, and on the side of the ship's upper floor, there were a few people standing there, waving to this side.
Yuan Rong moved closer to that side, glanced twice, and arched his hand over there: "Is it Brother Zhu?" ”
"It's Zhu Yuchen." Someone over there laughed and said: "Brother Yuan, a few of us are talking about you, on such a big day, your eldest son Yuan will never be closed." There's food and drinks here, why don't you come over and have a drink or two? ”
Yuan Rong was in a bad mood, but he still said politely: "Let's take care of yourself, I don't have enough alcohol on my side." ”
"The amount of alcohol that Prince Yuan has, others don't know, don't I, Zhu Yuchen, know?" The man smiled, "You wait over there, I'll introduce you to a few friends." ”
Yuan Rong was helpless, walked back to the table, Yang Ning smiled: "It seems that you really have friends all over the world." ”
"Zhu Yuchen is the eldest son of Zhujia Buzhuang in Hangzhou Mansion, and there are many wealthy households in Hangzhou Mansion, the most famous of which is Zhu's Buzhuang." Yuan Rong explained: "The Zhu family is wealthy, he is the head of the wealthy in Hangzhou, and he has an uncle who works as an errand in the Ministry of Rites, and he will come to Beijing every year to live for some time, and he used to have some friendships. ”
While speaking, I only heard a sound from below, and soon saw several people coming up the stairs, the first one was dressed in brocade and jade belts, dressed luxuriously, but at the age of twenty-seven or eighteen, he walked over quickly with a smile on his face, and arched his hand: "Brother Yuan, we haven't seen each other for some days, and we have always been good." ”
Yuan Rong said with a smile: "Zhu Dashao has traveled all over the world, how can he have time to see me, it's not that he hasn't seen me for a long time." ”
Zhu Yuchen laughed, pointed to a few people around him and introduced: "This is Qiu Fang, this is Jiangcheng, and this one is Chen Mukuan from Weitang!" ”
"Weitang Chen Mukuan?" Yuan Rong bowed his hand slightly and asked, "But Weitang Chen?" ”
Zhu Yuchen said with a smile: "It is the Chen family of Weitang porcelain, and Chen Mukuan is the eldest young master of the Chen family!" ”
"Sure enough, it's someone from the Chen family." Yuan Rong smiled: "If I guessed correctly, this Jiangcheng Jiang brother should be a member of the Jiang clan of Songjiang Tea House." ”
Zhu Yuchen gave a thumbs up, "Brother Yuan has good eyesight." To several others: "This is the Yuan Dagongzi I often mention, the grandfather of Yuan Dagongzi, who used to be a teacher for the first emperor." ”
Several people gave up one after another.
Zhu Yuchen saw Yang Ning sitting next to him and asked, "Brother Yuan, is this ......?" ”
Yuan Rong was about to explain, but when he heard Yang Ning cough lightly, Yuan Rong knew it and said with a smile: "This is also a friend of mine, you call him..... Ning Gongzi is good! ”
Yang Ning got up, hugged his fists and said: "You have come from afar, let Brother Yuan entertain you well, it is getting late, I will leave first." ”
Zhu Yuchen said curiously: "Brother Ning is leaving?" It's weird, the choice of the queen of flowers is about to begin, isn't it a pity to leave at this time? ”
Several other people also knew in their hearts that they could sit and drink with Yuan Rong, and the identity of this young man was naturally not ordinary, they were all from the Shangjia Hao clan, and they naturally knew the truth of multiple friends and multiple roads, not to mention that on the ground in the capital, it was undesirable to be able to meet a few more friends, and if they wanted to make friends with Yang Ning, they all persuaded Yang Ning to stay and watch.
Jiangcheng of Songjiang Tea House doesn't look like a businessman, he is only twenty-five or sixteen years old, his face is full of books, but he looks like a scholar, and said with a smile to Yang Ning: "Brother Ning is a friend of Yuan Gongzi, that is, our friend, the first time we meet, I hope everyone drinks a glass of water and wine together, I don't know what to do?" ”
Without waiting for Yang Ning to speak, Chen Mukuan, the eldest young master of the Chen family in Weitang, had already said in a thick voice: "Brother Ning, there will be a good show to watch soon, a few of our brothers finally gathered in Qinhuai River, who is the queen of flowers tonight, it will be up to a few of our brothers." I heard that there are eight girls on the king of the boat, and they will see people ..... later, if you want, who do you like later, we will hold her to make flowers, what do you think? ”
He spoke roughly, his tone was not small, and his body was quite fat, but his skin and flesh were fine, and he was pampered at first glance, and he was much more flamboyant than the others.
Yang Ning smiled: "Brother Chen is generous. Glimpsing the person named Qiu Fang, Yuan Rong seemed to be very clear about the origin of the other people, but did not mention Qiu Fang's origin, but saw that Qiu Fang was already in his early thirties, a few years older than the others, and he also looked quite old, with his hands behind his back, smiling, and his appearance was quite handsome, and he was not easy to speak.
Yuan Rong also smiled and said: "Chen Gongzi, you are all rich people, and it is not a problem to spend a lot of money, if a few people join forces, there is really no one to compare tonight." He looked at Qiu Fang and asked, "Is this Brother Qiu also from Hangzhou?" ”
Zhu Yuchen shook his head and said, "Brother Qiu is from Liaodong. ”
"Liaodong?" Yuan Rong's brows tightened slightly, "That seems to be the ground of the Northern Han people." ”
Qiu Fang explained with a smile: "I am indeed from the Northern Han Dynasty, but Yuan Gongzi must not regard me as an enemy. It is true that I am a native of the Northern Han Dynasty, but there is no hostility towards your country, as early as many years ago, our Qiu family had contacts with several friends of Brother Zhu, we are doing business, we want to do business in peace and security, and the last thing we want to see is the battle between the two countries. ”
Zhu Yuchen said: "Brother Qiu is a member of the Qiu family of Liaodong Shenwang, has Brother Yuan heard of it?" ”
"Liaodong Shenwang has naturally heard of it." Yuan Rong said: "Liaodong is rich in ginseng and deer antlers, which are extremely valuable, to get the best mountain ginseng, you need to go into the mountains to find and dig, for people who do not know how to do it, digging ginseng in the mountains seems to be very easy, but the real insiders know that it is not an easy thing." ”
Qiu Fang smiled and said, "Yuan Gongzi knows how to pick ginseng? ”
"If you want to pick ginseng, you have to find ginseng first." Yuan Rong said: "Those ordinary ginseng, some experienced visitors can be found, but the best old ginseng, that not only requires first-class experience, but also a little luck, I heard that there is a powerful person in Liaodong, every time he goes into the mountains when he is young, he can find the best ginseng, which is enviable, and that person was later called the king of ginseng." ”
"That's the grandfather down there." Qiu Fang said with a smile: "His old man passed away a few years ago, but the skills of picking ginseng have been passed down, and now he still relies on these skills to eat." ”
Yuan Rong sighed: "It turns out that Brother Qiu is the real rich man, although the king of Liaodong ginseng is famous for picking ginseng, and the real best mountain ginseng can only be obtained from your Qiu family, but as far as I know, your Qiu family is now mainly engaged in medicinal materials, and many precious medicinal materials are nowhere to be obtained, but as long as you find your Qiu family, no matter what rare medicinal materials, there is everything." ”
Zhu Yuchen laughed and said: "It's those people who are extremely wealthy, there are one or two of those rare medicinal materials at home, and they are all like treasures, but for Brother Qiu, those medicinal materials are piles of dead branches and leaves that are going to mold. ”
Qiu Fang immediately waved his hand and said: "Brother Zhu is serious, how can it be so bizarre, it's just relying on the mountains to eat the mountains and the water." At that time, my grandfather started with ginseng, and later thought that if I had been relying on digging ginseng, it would cut off the roots of ginseng, and no matter what I did, I had to leave room for it, so my grandfather later specially convened ginseng pickers in Liaodong and set up a rule, stipulating the number of ginseng picks every year. Everyone has to eat, and the ginseng can't be picked, so they can only do some medicinal herb business. ”
"Keep rooting." Yang Ning praised: "This is great wisdom! ”
Qiu Fang smiled: "It's over." ”
Zhu Yuchen asked, "Is there a choice in the hearts of the two?" The eight people who participated in the selection of the queen of flowers were called Qin Huai Bayan, and they were all stunning beauties with both talent and appearance. ”
At this time, the huge boat has stopped in the middle of the Qinhuai River, including the pearl of the boat, there are twenty or thirty boats of all sizes around the king of the boat, the king of the boat is like being held by the stars in the moon, at this time the color is gorgeous, dazzling, is the real pearl on the Qinhuai River.
Without waiting for Yuan Rong to say more, he heard a melodious sound of silk and bamboo, and there was a faint orchestral sound, originally the king of Fang was lively and noisy all around, as soon as this sound came out, it quickly returned to silence in all directions, and soon, I heard a daughter's family lightly open the red lips and sing, for a time the water waves were soft, the voice was soft, with charming bones, and the charming style on the Qinhuai River was better than in the past.
"This should be Wu Yin'er, right?" Zhu Yuchen said softly.
Jiang Cheng smiled and said: "This year's Qin Huai Bayan, it is said that if you talk about appearance, it should be Dong Qiaoqiao, but her singing voice is not as good as Wu Yin'er, although Wu Yin'er's singing voice is good, but it is too charming, too much, and her temperament is not as gentle as water as Luo Ning, but Luo Ning's talent is far from being as good as Yushuang'......!" He sighed and said, "It's just that Yushuang is too cold, and in comparison, the piano skills are still slightly inferior to Zhuo Xian'er......!" ”
Several people looked at Jiang Cheng, Yang Ning thought to himself that this guy had a lot of treasures for Qin Huai Bayan, and he didn't just know their names, but even their advantages and disadvantages were clear, and it seemed that he was really fully prepared.
Yuan Rong asked with a smile: "Brother Jiang thinks that among these Qin Huai Bayan, who is most likely to win the Flower Queen?" ”
Jiang Cheng said with a smile: "I came here today at the invitation of Brother Zhu, today you think who should be elected as the queen of flowers, I will follow you, but if you really want to talk about it, that person named Shen Jiaonu should be good." ”
