Chapter 253: The Daughter of the Deceased
Shen Yun understood that the key to not letting Wang Fangchang be attached was whether he could protect others and act as their protective umbrella.
Can I protect them?" he looked down at his hands.
These hands, white and slender, with distinct knuckles, are covered with a thin layer of calluses on the ten fingertips.
He clenched his fists.
The knuckles "rattle" one after another, crunchy, and full of power.
He knew that although these hands were still very immature, they had some strength.
What's more, he vowed a long time ago that he would be a hero who would help the weak in troubled times. Therefore, he is not averse to being a protective umbrella.
Of course, the premise is that Wang Fangchang's family background is innocent. Otherwise, it's called a tiger. It was what he hated.
Therefore, he asked, "How is Chief Wang Fang a person, and what does the family do for a living?"
Ziber has lived here for more than two years and is very familiar with the people in this area. Hearing this, he smiled and said the truth: "Chief Wang Fang himself is an intermediate-level martial artist, and he has never maliciously bullied the neighborhood. In the past, when the surname Huang was there, he also dared to be angry and did not dare to speak. His family is an old resident here, and I heard that his grandfather was a high-ranking martial artist, and when it came to him, it was considered to be in decline. There is no other business at home, it is said that there are two Zhuangzi in the northern suburbs, pointing to the output of the Zhuangzi to live. ”
That is, the family background is innocent. "I see. Shen Yun made up his mind and waved his hand out.
Without hesitation, he happily took over Wang Fangchang's little red book.
As for the conclusion of the servant contract, it was a very solemn matter. You have to pick an auspicious day, open the incense case, and accept three knocks and nine bows from all the men in Wang Fangchang's family. There is no auspicious day at the moment, so we can only postpone it for the time being.
Wang Fang got Shen Yun's consent, felt that he had something to rely on, and he suddenly had confidence. Without waiting for the official conclusion of the servant, he had already eagerly called Shen Yun the "lord".
Originally, he wanted to bow down and call himself small, but the freshly baked "lord" said that in his place, he would not use these false courtesies, so that he would call himself "I" like Qi Bo and them.
Chief Wang Fang's face was full of gratitude, and he praised: "The lord is benevolent." ”
After he left, Shen Yun deliberately looked at the little red book. It not only registered the Wang family's business in detail, but also carefully attached the title deeds of the real estate on Front Street and the two Zhuangzi in the northern suburbs, as well as the deeds of all the servants in the family.
In other words, Wang Fang really handed over all the family business.
From several land deeds, it is not difficult for Shen Yun to see that these are ancestral properties that have been in existence for hundreds of years. However, at this moment, Wang Fang Chang handed him a stranger without reservation, just to get his protection.
It can be seen that in Xiandu, everyone is in danger.
Shen Yun handed over the little red book to Qi Bo and told him to register it in the warehouse and keep it.
Wang Fang Chang just made a start. Next, other neighbors came to the door one after another. Without exception, they all offered their entire family property and asked to be attached to Shen Yun.
Come on, a sheep is a drive, a group of sheep is also a drive, I heard Qi Bo say, they are all ordinary people who live in peace, there are no evil deeds, Shen Yun has accepted them.
It's just that there are a total of 31 households on the front and back three streets. Their livelihood is varied, involving 11 industries such as Zhuangzi, restaurants, incense and candle shops, embroidery villages, etc., and there are hundreds of shopkeepers and partners. And Shen Yun had only helped take care of a few grocery stores before, and that bit of business experience was really not enough. For a while, he couldn't come up with a charter, so he handed it back to them to take care of himself. Of course, the main thing is that he is not short of money at the moment, and he has no intention of "pumping living water" from these industries.
However, the attachment of people is serious. After that, I took the initiative to pay the account every month.
Well, this Shen Yun is in the line. With his current mental arithmetic speed, he doesn't need to pick up the abacus beads, and after reading an account book, he will check the accounts.
As a result, over the course of a year, he did not find a single false account. At the end of the year, these people really followed the rules and only took half of the profits. The rest, all the real money, was carried over to him. So, he didn't do anything, and after a year, he actually had an income of more than 200,000 taels of silver. really responded to Qi Bo's sentence "Wealth is rolling".
Of course, that's all for later.
On the eighth day of the first lunar month, Shen Yun received a letter from Hong Tianbao.
At the beginning of the letter, he told Shen Yun that he had just gotten off the boat and was still three hundred miles away from home. He was going to buy a fast horse at the market here, and if nothing happened on the way, he should be able to rush home on the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve.
Seeing this, Shen Yun subconsciously flipped to the end and looked at the date left. Well, the twenty-seventh of the lunar month. In other words, the boat that Hong Tianbao took only traveled for about ten days in total.
How fast was the waterway? He turned over again in disbelief and continued to read the letter.
Then, Hong Tianbao explained the reason in the letter: it turned out that the ship he was on had a lot of money and used speed charms every night. Once, when he got up in the middle of the night to relieve himself, he found that the ship was speeding on the sea, but it had barely taken off. The next day, he went to talk to the cold steward. The latter said that their owner was a dutiful son, and he wanted to rush home to spend the New Year with his parents.
If it was left before going out to study, Hong Tianbao would have believed it. But he has been in Xiandu for three years and has experienced a lot, and when he hears it, he knows that this is a lie.
Sure enough, when he got off the boat, he paid more attention and found that the problem was a large box that was tightly nailed.
The owner of the ship was clearly trying to transport the big box, so he didn't hesitate to use the speed charm to hurry.
However, this matter has nothing to do with him. He was also in a hurry to go home for the New Year, so he didn't look into it further.
At the end, he told another piece of gossip - he inquired about the identity of the little girl.
The letter said that although the young woman watched the two children closely, he took advantage of the loophole and talked to the little girl.
The little girl was eccentric, very intelligent, and not afraid of life at all, and as soon as they met, she told him, "Big brother, I have seen you too." I also know that your surname is Hong. and the elder brother of the Shen family who didn't get on the boat are all disciples of the Hongyun Martial Arts Pavilion. ”
At that time, he was so shocked that he almost fell into the sea.
Under questioning, he learned that the little girl was actually the daughter of the deceased.
"Brother Yun, do you know who her father is?"
Seeing this sentence, Shen Yun's mind couldn't help but see the figure of a playful little girl.
Have you seen me and Hong Tianbao?
Could it be the daughter of Lord Ning Duwei? Thinking about it, it seems that there is only this possibility.
He then looked down, but was astonished.
Hong Tianbao wrote: The little girl's surname is Qian, her name is Liu, and she is the daughter of Master Qian. The young woman was her aunt. The other, slightly older boy, was the son of her aunt. They learned from Master Ning Duwei that Master Qian had returned to his hometown, so they hurried back.
According to Qian Liu, she hadn't seen Qian Shizun for more than three years, and she couldn't remember what her father looked like. Hong Tianbao said pitifully in the letter.
Shen Yun was not surprised—Master Qian's face was dark-skinned, unsmiling, and he looked like an iron tower. It was hard for him to imagine that Qian Shizun actually had a pink, playful and lovely daughter.
However, thinking about Qian Liu's appearance carefully, I found that the full forehead and straight nose did have the shadow of Master Qian.
Well, Qian Shizun is also good-looking in these two places. The little girl should have picked the strengths of her parents.
Indirectly knowing the recent situation of Master Qian, Shen Yun was very happy in his heart, and wished their father and daughter a reunion.
