"Looking at Yangzhou City at Night"
Tang Dynasty: Wang Jian
Thousands of lights illuminate the blue clouds in the night market, and high-rise buildings are crowded with red-sleeved customers.
Nowadays, unlike usual times, I can still hear the sound of singing and singing.
There are many poems describing this city, but Lu Yan can only think of it at the moment because it is so lively.
Riding a donkey, Lu Yan, escorted by Liu Dashan and others, came to Yaxing, which was an ancient agency.
In this era, being an intermediary requires connections.
You may not say that your hands and eyes can reach the sky, but you should at least be able to manage things up and down.
Otherwise, it would be very troublesome to meet a difficult guy. No, here he is!
Just as Lu Yan and his entourage arrived, the agent in the tooth shop hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Young gentleman, what do you need!"
"Two houses, one is big and one has people!"
Looking at Ya Ren, Lu Yan said expressionlessly,
Cars, boats, foot shops, teeth, innocent people deserve to be killed!
What does this describe? In ancient times, in these industries, even if they were not guilty, you should not expect them to be kind and be careful in everything! Otherwise, you’ll be tricked and you won’t even know what’s going on!
"A house? Isn't that a coincidence? Our bank has recently opened a third-in-compartment hospital. It is located at the Twenty-Fourth Bridge on the West Lake. The scenery is absolutely beautiful."
After a breathless introduction, the dentist almost said, "You're lucky, I'll give you face today!"
"How much silver?"
When asking Ya Ren, Lu Yan couldn't help but frown, because he felt that he was probably going to be killed.
Sure enough, when Yaren heard this, he immediately said: "For the sake of how handsome the young man is, how about three thousand four hundred taels!"
Looking at Yaren blankly, Lu Yan, Liu Dashan and others were stunned at this moment.
Three thousand four hundred taels. If an ordinary person could earn ten taels a year, it would take at least three hundred and forty years!
What's more, can people today earn ten taels a year?
Isn’t this a clear statement to Lu Yan, I think you are stupid, buy it for three thousand four hundred taels!
"Clang!"
Pulling out the knife, Liu Dashan said angrily: "Do you think my young master is a fool? How dare you bully me!"
"Hey, what do you want to do? Pull out the knife! Let me tell you, we are not alone. If you are brave enough, you can try to stab me!"
Looking at Liu Dashan with disdain, Yaren also looked proud.
In Yangzhou, they dare to open a dental shop without any ability?
Facing such a rampant tooth man, Liu Dashan wanted to chop him down with a knife, but he suppressed the anger in his heart.
Because Lu Yan hasn’t spoken yet!
Seeing this, Lu Yan couldn't help but smile: "You are very brave!"
"Of course, in Yangzhou City, no one dares not to listen to what our Shengdinghao says!"
Raising his eyebrows, Yaren spoke arrogantly,
But just after Yaren finished speaking, Lu Yan frowned and said, "Break his legs!"
"Um?"
Looking at Lu Yan blankly, Yaren couldn't help but become sluggish at this moment.
After hearing Lu Yan's order, Liu Wu immediately stepped forward, picked up the scabbard and smashed it directly on Yaren's thigh.
"Crack!"
There was a sound of bone cracking, and Yaren fell to the ground miserably and wailed.
When people passing by saw this scene, they also ran over and watched the show outside.
"You are so brave, how dare you hit someone on the Shengding!"
Looking at the movement outside, the shopkeeper also ran out with an angry face.
But before the shopkeeper could finish what he said, Lu Yan waved his hand and said, "Brother, I'll break your legs!"
After hearing Lu Yan's instructions, Liu Dashan and others immediately smiled, rolled up their sleeves,
I have long been dissatisfied with this dental shop. Now that the young master is saying it, how can I not obey it?
Just when Liu Dashan and others were like tigers coming out of their cages, the guards inside the Yahang were immediately beaten and screamed.
who are they? He was someone who fought against South Asian barbarians back then! It's not easy to deal with these little guards!
Not long after, when the government officials arrived, they immediately looked at all this with their mouths agape.
The most famous Shengding account in Yangzhou was actually smashed. Is this okay?
Who doesn’t know that there is a salt merchant background behind the Shengding!
"Hey, that boy, why don't you stop!"
Looking at Lu Yan sitting on the donkey, no matter how stupid the government officials are, they know that he is the real commander.
But looking at her outfit, she doesn’t look like an ordinary person! What if you can’t afford to offend?
Turning his head, Lu Yan faced the yamen servant and immediately scolded: "What a piece of shit, you dare to meddle in other people's business, I asked you to catch your head!"
Hearing Lu Yan's fearless words, the government officials froze on the spot. Yes, what kind of bodies they have, if they dare to smash them, they must be people with backgrounds!
Just when the government officials were surrounding the perimeter and controlling the situation, the head catcher ran over and immediately stepped forward and said, "Sir, do you know who your lord is?"
"My father, Lin Ruhai?"
Turning to look at the catcher, Lu Yan raised his eyebrows and said, "Tell me, he sold me a house worth less than 300 taels for 3,400 taels. Should I beat him?"
Looking at Lu Yan sharply, the catcher couldn't help but cursed that he didn't have eyesight.
Who is Lin Ruhai, the salt censor? The most "powerful" guy in Yangzhou today,
He is an ex-convict who specializes in managing salt merchants! Own the right to play solo!
Shengdinghao, isn't this just right for someone else?
It's only three thousand four hundred taels for opening the mouth. If it were him, the big mouth would definitely beat him to pieces!
But even if you don’t have three thousand four hundred taels, you can’t buy it with three hundred taels, right? This young man is not an easy person to get along with!
After a while, the catcher hurriedly ran in and told the shopkeeper of the tooth shop about the incident.
Frowning fiercely, the shopkeeper covered his broken leg and said: "So what if the Salt Patrol Censor, he is bullying the people?"
"Wait a minute, didn't Lin Ruhai's three-year-old son just die? That guy outside."
Just when everyone was looking at each other, Lin Ruhai, who was at home, also got the news.
He had just buried his young son, and he and his wife were feeling depressed.
Because the child sent by the Lin family disappeared on the way!
Lu Yan: Aren’t I living a good life?
But at this moment, the housekeeper hurriedly ran in and said: "Master, it's not good, the young master is fighting with someone outside!"
"Master? Where did my son come from?"
Looking at the housekeeper blankly, Lin Ruhai immediately froze on the spot.
Half an hour later, Lin Ruhai came with Yan Ding. He happened to see Lu Yan sitting on a little donkey and roared at the shopkeeper with broken legs: "I am the adopted son of the Lin family. How dare you insult me? I If I don’t deal with you today, what’s the point?”
"Liu Dashan, whip him!"
Just as Lu Yan finished speaking, Liu Dashan raised his scabbard and was about to take action.
"enough!"
Taking square steps, Lin Ruhai walked over wearing Confucian attire.
The moment they saw him, the people around him bowed.
Because this is the real "Wenquxing" coming to the world!
"Lin Jien?"
Looking at Lu Yan, Lin Ruhai couldn't help but look at the young man in front of him. He had sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, and he had an extraordinary appearance. However, no matter how he looked at him, he felt like he had a ruthless air. I wonder if it was an illusion?
"It's Ji-en, meet your father!"
Lu Yan politely jumped off the donkey, knelt on the ground and saluted.
The moment he was adopted by the clan, he recognized Lin Ruhai as his father in an era when etiquette and law were more important than heaven!
Even if he wanted to "rebel" in the future, he couldn't stand up to Lin Ruhai. After all, he was too bad of a character!
"Well, it's my son!"
Stroking his beard, Lin Ruhai immediately turned around and said, "The store has been raided!"
"ah!"
Looking at Lin Ruhai in shock, the shopkeeper never expected that this civet cat was really the "prince"!
To be able to become the Salt Patrol Censor and "fight" with Yangzhou salt merchants for so many years, is Lin Ruhai an incompetent person?
You know, the salt tax is in his hands, but it has steadily increased!
Otherwise, how could the current Holy Emperor condone Lin Ruhai's reign? That was someone promoted by his father!
