Chapter 301: For the sake of children and grandchildren
"This little brother, what are you looking for the old man?" Steward Hu looked at the pair of children in front of him, a little stunned. If it weren't for the Yuezhou tycoon Wang Zhe by his side, he would have turned around and left.
As the eldest grandson's big shopkeeper in Jiangnan, Hu Guan is very powerful. The spokesperson of the dignified Piguo Mansion in Jiangnan, and other idlers will give a little face. He really wants to know who these two children in front of him are, if the identity is not valuable enough, hehe!
"Shopkeeper Hu, the kid is polite here." The thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy smiled and arched his hand. Although Shopkeeper Hu didn't speak, he was a little surprised in his heart. A young man who is waiting for him to be stared at like this, it is good to be able to stand up straight and sit firmly. But this young man did not feel the slightest discomfort. Instead, he greeted himself with a smile, this young man is not simple!
looked at Wang Zhe beside the young man, and the shopkeeper Hu did not speak.
"Shopkeeper Hu, you are the son of the eldest grandson's family. During the Wude period, he followed the Duke of Pi to fight in the south and the north. The scars on your face are from that time! The girl, who looked to be only about ten years old, spoke, and her voice was as crisp as a yellow warbler, which was very nice.
"Old man Cha! Who are you? Shopkeeper Wang, this is Wei Guogong's family? As a person who had mixed up in Chang'an, he naturally knew that this Wang Zhe was the person of Li Jing, the Duke of Weiguo. The one who can make him a person is estimated to be the family of Li Jing, the Duke of Weiguo. This is strange, the Duke of Pi Guo Mansion and Li Jing, the Duke of Weiguo, don't seem to have any friendship. The two princes have always been well water and do not interfere with river water. Today, how did Wei Guogong's family find him?
"Being able to teach you all the business in Jiangnan shows that Pi Guogong trusts Steward Hu very much. But I just don't know, the chief steward of the eldest grandson family has to be trusted more, or you have more trust to be in charge? The voice of the yellow warbler sounded again.
Wang Zhe was just drinking tea next to him and didn't say a word. It was as if suddenly he was deaf, and he didn't think he heard what was being said.
"Of course, he is the chief steward, and his old man saved the life of Grandpa Guo twice on the battlefield. Say, "What are you going to do?" Not to mention, the old man will not accompany him. After the manager finished speaking, he stood up and was about to leave.
"Butler, you know. It was the chief steward who had saved Pi Guogong twice, who was beaten to death by a live stick two months ago. I heard that Pi Guogong also used the means of the army, and the generals insisted on beating the internal organs out of his old man's mouth. A fifty-year-old man who has worked hard for his eldest grandson's family all his life. In the end, this is the end, shopkeeper Hu, do you think his fate will fall on you? The girl didn't seem to see that the caregiver was leaving, and God was talking. It's like there's a cloud of air in front of you.
"Who the hell are you, you want to provoke our eldest grandson's family, it's not that easy." The essence in Steward Hu's eyes flashed, and then disappeared. There is no doubt that these two children are nobles, and if they do it, it is a big question whether they can go back.
"Provocative? When Changsun Rong came to Jiangnan, how much was your right squeezed? It's okay to say that Changsun Rong earned money in Jiangnan, if you lose it, you will be a scapegoat. Think about the fate of the big shopkeeper, and your fate is about to come out.
You are faithful to the Lord's house, but the Lord's house may not be righteous. It's not provocation, the fate of the big shopkeeper is there. There was no thin-skinned coffin, and the straw mat was rolled out of the Piguo Mansion. Now, I'm afraid it's already in the belly of a wild dog in a mass grave. Loyalty also depends on the object. The young man took a sip of tea and said slowly.
"We are not here to save your life, your life is up to you. Now the opportunity is in front of you, it's up to you to grasp it or not. It was the girl who spoke.
The two of them spoke as if they had been rehearsed, and they basically achieved a seamless connection. If it weren't for the different voices, I would have thought it was a person talking.
"Who the hell are you?" The shopkeeper wanted to leave, but his legs didn't obey. Changsun Rong's adventure in Jiangnan was very radical. In just one month, he has earned no less than 80,000 yuan. Profit blinded him, and now he is doing it bigger and bigger. Not only did the money they earned go into it, but they even started to borrow on a large scale.
The white strips for those small and medium-sized silk merchants were beaten everywhere. So far, though, the credibility has been good. When it comes to fifteen-day checkout, it means fifteen-day checkout. But Shopkeeper Hu knows that there is a huge risk here, and if there is a slight mistake in any link, the eldest grandson's family will fall into a catastrophe this time.
You know, the current white strips plus arrears. Changsun Rong has already borrowed almost 700,000 yuan, and Yangzhou's annual taxes are not this amount. Steward Hu was so anxious that he turned around, and he talked about Changsun Rong several times, but he was reprimanded by Changsun Rong. Even his right to be the shopkeeper in Jiangnan was deprived of very little. Otherwise, how could he have the time to ink with these two little guys when he was busy all day.
"We are the ones who save your life, as long as you cooperate with us. Not only can you survive, but even your family in Chang'an, we are responsible for getting it out. In fact, now they are under our protection. Do you recognize this thing? The young man reached into his arms and took out a gilded unicorn lock.
When the steward saw the four words of wealth and longevity engraved on it, the cold in his eyes immediately soared. He personally sent someone to build this thing and put it on his eldest grandson's neck. Now in the hands of this man, do you say...... Poor boy, he's only six years old!
"You're dying!" Steward Hu said grimly, and a dagger had quietly appeared in his hand.
"Rest assured, your son's family is all right. And on the way from Chang'an to Yangzhou, don't think about killing us. Trust us, if you do it now, it must be you who will die. The young man didn't look nervous at all, and the dagger in the hand of the steward seemed to be a toy in his eyes.
There was a sudden coldness on his neck, and he had lived on the battlefield for many years. Steward Hu knew that it was a horizontal knife around his neck. As long as you pull it gently, you will be in a different place. Regarding the sharpness of the Datang horizontal knife, Hu Guan has no doubts. What this pair of children are talking about is fucking true, as long as you move yourself, you will die.
Whose child is this, although he doesn't dare to say that he is extremely high. But he is definitely not a mediocre hand, and he has been trained on the battlefield for many years. That perception of danger helped me escape death several times. But this time, he didn't realize that there was someone hiding behind him. You don't have to think about it to know that this is a guy with high skills.
"What do you want me to do!" As soon as the hand was released, the dagger fell to the ground. Steward Hu is also a person who has seen the world, and sits on a chair. Since you can't hide, you can only hard-top. At the very least, it's a bit of dignity to die like this.
"Don't you ask who we are?" The girl asked with a grin.
"Since the noble man is a high-ranking person, does he have to play the old man like this?" Steward Hu felt like the rat who had been caught by the cat. The sense of humiliation overflowed his body, but what could he do now? Family members are held in the hands of others, and their own lives are also held in the hands of others.
It seems that people don't want to kill him, and if they do, they won't hesitate to kill him. And it is guaranteed that the eldest grandson's family will not even let out a fart, and people don't take the eldest grandson's family in their eyes at all. Otherwise, you won't move yourself at all.
"You don't mean that, you can call me a dog. Oh, by the way, my surname is Yun! When the dog saw the appearance of Hu Guan, he secretly praised that he was torn and killed on the battlefield, and he still had this bearing. It looks like we've bottomed out, and if we continue to play around like this, maybe things will go bad.
"Dogs? Cloud......! You are a member of the Yun family! The steward was so frightened that he wanted to stand up, but his shoulder was held down by a big hand like an iron tong, and his body did not move at all.
"It's the Yun family! Now you still have to ask why I'm looking for you? Or what do you want to do? When the dog saw the frightened appearance of the Hu steward, he knew that the Yun family was like a jackal, tiger and leopard in the heart of the eldest grandson's family. It seems that a battle in Chang'an has broken the backbone of the eldest grandson Shunde's family.
"Do you want me to betray the Lord?" Steward Hu gritted his teeth and said. He is the son of the eldest grandson's family, and he has been a slave of the eldest grandson's family since his ancestors. And he himself has been a slave of the eldest grandson's family since birth. Even if he becomes a big treasurer, he is still burdened with slavery. As long as the master's family does not let go, the ancestors can only be slaves for generations.
"Only when there is a Lord will you betray the Lord! Steward Hu, are you really willing to follow such a master? Are you really willing to be a slave for the rest of your life? Even if you are willing, your son will be willing, and your grandson will be willing. Your Hu family, your ancestors have been willing for generations? The dog shook the gilded unicorn in his hand.
Steward Hu closed his eyes in pain, how could the unicorn be used by him as a slave. At the beginning, I thought that with my own merits, I could let my grandson fly on the branches and become a phoenix, but now when I see this gilded unicorn, how ridiculous my original idea was. A good minion, who is willing to let go easily.
"When the business is done, I will send your family to the south. It's Feng An's territory, and no one will trouble you. Your Hu family will thrive in the south in the future, be your own master, and no longer be anyone's slave. As long as your children and grandchildren don't sell themselves into slavery, they will be able to behave in an upright manner in the future.
If there are outstanding children and grandchildren who can be admitted to fame, they may also be able to pay homage to the prime minister. Oh yes! My uncle has a academy there, and if you want, you can let your grandson go to the academy. To tell you the truth, His Majesty sent His Royal Highness King Wei and His Royal Highness King Shu to study in the academy. It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for future generations. Don't miss the opportunity! ”
Unexpected conditions, seductive language. supported all of the dog's words, and the Hu steward didn't last even two seconds. The decades of loyalty to the eldest grandson's family in my heart collapsed in an instant.
Especially the sentence of the marquis and the prime minister, this is something that Hu Guan didn't dare to think of before. For the sake of future generations, even if it is infamous through the ages, it will be recognized.
"Say it! Let the old man do what? As long as you can keep your promise, the old man's life is at your disposal. Steward Hu's words were no longer half hesitant, but unusually decisive.
"I don't want your life, I just want you to report the news. Rest assured, the reputation of the Yun family has always been good. Don't believe me, ask them? The dog pointed to Ma Wu and Ma Liu outside the stairs.
"Those two were originally just water bandits in Dongting Lake, but they just voted for my uncle. Now, they have all become captains of the Tang Water Division. There are hundreds of brothers under his command, and the scenery is tight! ”
"Good! Go to the soup and fight the fire, Hu Lao will not give up for 30,000 deaths! ”
"From now on, they will contact you, and you can get to know each other. If there are any instructions, I will tell you through them. They will report your affairs to me, so go! The dog waved his hand, and the steward bowed and retreated.
"Awesome! Terrible! Today, I know the Yun family's methods! Zhang Shisan's death is not unjust, and Zhang Shisan's ten fights with Chu Gong will also die without a place to be buried. Seeing Steward Hu walk out, Wang Zhe let out a long breath.
The Yun family is so powerful, the seven inches of a person are almost pinched to the bones. For the sake of future generations to get rid of the name of slaves, Hu Guan is willing to do anything. Even if the dog now asks him to commit suicide, it is estimated that this old guy will not hesitate. I just hope that the dog can fulfill his promise!
In terms of fulfilling promises, the Yun family has always had good credit. The dog is right, the two roe head rat guys outside are the best example.
"Mr. Wang also wants to break away from Wei Gong? I'm afraid my uncle won't agree to this! "There must be a degree to dig the foot of the wall, Li Jing is now suspicious of Li Er. But he is still the most important general of the Tang Dynasty military, if the foot of this wall is dug too big, he will be stoned to death if he digs the wall down.
"Absolutely not! You know, I'm not the same as the butler. I have a family and a business in Yuezhou, and my children and grandchildren are not very successful. Let's live, and if you live, you will earn a day for those losers. If one day the old man is gone, these losers will be able to lose for a few more days. Wang Zhe sighed helplessly, following the Yun family, he had no hope in this life. Looking at the next generation in the family, there seems to be little hope.
"In any case, I would like to thank Mr. Wang for today's incident." The dog stood up and bowed.
"No need to be polite, I should leave when the matter is done, farewell!" Wang Zhe arched his hand, turned around and strode out of the door.
"Watch him until he gets on the boat, if you find out that he is in contact with someone from the eldest grandson's family, kill!" The dog commanded, and Xue Rengui, who had put the knife into the sheath, also walked out.
"If you really kill him, I'm afraid Li Jing won't agree. You are a big enemy for your uncle! Wu Mei looked at Xue Rengui who walked out.
"What if you don't say yes? A big enemy, do you think Li Jing will have a good relationship with our uncle? Don't forget, my uncle tied up Li Jing at the beginning. Li Wenzhong's guy can't go ashore until now, so he can only mix on the sea as a sailor general.
If this guy really leaks the news, everything we have worked so hard to arrange will be in vain. I have to guard against it!
But then again, you really don't care if you cheat your martial artist like this? ”
"Don't mention that house to me, a hundred taels of gold will sell me. Now you are my husband and my surname is Yun! ”
