sedan chair? You've already entered the house and you still want to sit in a sedan chair?
Xie Xian looked at Du Lingfeng confused.
Du Lingfeng stepped through the gate familiarly, and then entered the sedan chair inside the courtyard gate.
Xie Xian could only follow closely and enter the sedan together.
In the car, Xie Xian stood on the car window and watched hard.
The sight is a beautiful sight.
The bamboo forest is swaying gently, not far away is the fish pond rockery, and various pavilions and water pavilions...
"Brother Du, we have already entered the house, why do we still need to sit in a sedan?"
It seems that you have not seen it before. Du Lingfeng smiled proudly.
"Brother Xie, how's the view? This is just the Lu family's outer residence!"
"The Lu family's mansion is definitely beyond your imagination!"
"The inner house covers an area of more than twenty acres! The outer house covers a full two hundred acres! Although we have entered the Lu family's gate, we have not yet entered the Lu family's house. Do you think we can stop taking the sedan chair?"
Xie Xian looked at the beautiful scenery outside the window and murmured: "Oh my god, the palace only covers an area of one thousand acres, but the Lu family is so extravagant! Don't they even cover it up?"
"Isn't this a cover-up? That gate outside."
"...."
"You won't believe it when I say it. When Da Qian was still there and the country was in chaos, the Lu family's internal and external residences were said to have expanded to over a thousand acres. Of course, this is just a legend and I have never seen it."
"It's hard to imagine that the Lu family is really not afraid of being investigated?" Xie Xian became more and more frightened as he looked at it.
The master is very brave, there is almost nothing he dare not do.
But despite this, he usually keeps a very low profile in order to prevent anything from going wrong.
Their houses are all located in the backyard of the county government office.
The area and decoration are just like ordinary houses, there is nothing special about them.
It's amazing that a member of the Lu family can be so awesome!
Du Lingfeng laughed: "The sky is high and the emperor is far away. This place is three thousand miles away from the capital. Who can find it? But it is big for a reason. The Lu family and the forces under him will gather here to entertain guests and go on business. 1 Firstly, it’s decent, and secondly, it’s practical, so it’s necessary to be so big.”
Xie Xian sighed: "Isn't that just like a small imperial court?"
"Yes! That's right, that's very appropriate, little court! It's just that he is only responsible for selling salt and managing the salt gang."
Xie Xian observed the layout of the outer house and stopped asking questions.
I don’t know how many sights I saw and how much time passed.
The sedan swayed to the vicinity of the inner house. Although it was said to be an inner house, it actually had no gate.
They can be distinguished because more buildings are visible to the naked eye.
The two of them got off the sedan.
Du Lingfeng walked in front of him and introduced: "Brother Xie, this is the inner house."
"Don't speak for a while. I'll introduce you. Wait until Mr. Lu asks you before you speak."
"good!"
Following Du Lingfeng through the buildings, they finally arrived at a main hall.
When the person who looked like the housekeeper came out to meet him, Du Lingfeng bowed and said in a low voice: "Steward Lu, Du Lingfeng wants to see the young master."
Butler Lu had narrow eyes and a mustache. He stroked his long beard and looked at Xie Xian and said, "Is this the Xie Xian you mentioned?"
Xie Xian quickly bowed and saluted.
"Exactly."
"Well, just wait here! Young Master has a distinguished guest to meet. I will inform you after the conversation is over."
After that, Butler Lu turned around and left!
Xie Xian looked at his back, approached Du Lingfeng and said, "Brother Du, this person speaks a little arrogantly."
"This man is the chief steward of the Lu Mansion. He has a very important position. Be careful."
"If he says something bad about anyone in front of the young master, you can imagine the consequences!"
While talking, a maid came to serve tea.
The two sat across the table and chatted quietly.
"Brother Du, what kind of person is Mr. Lu? I will see him later, what should I pay attention to?"
"Hey...it's hard to say. He's...somewhat moody, but he hates others talking back. If he doesn't talk back, he'll just kill someone who isn't important."
"Some people with certain identities have also been treated badly...so be extremely careful."
"No matter what he says in a while, just follow him. With your eloquence, brother Xie, there will definitely be no problem!"
Xie Xian nodded, then took a sip of tea and began to draft something in his mind.
How should I lick it after a while...
After changing three cups of tea, the servant finally arrived to report.
Du Lingfeng swallowed and looked a little nervous. He motioned to Xie Xian with his eyes and walked quickly towards the backyard.
In a courtyard in the backyard.
Lu Renjie closed his eyes and lay on the couch, with four or five pretty maids standing beside him.
When Du Lingfeng and Xie Xian stood in front of him, they slowly opened their eyes.
Xie Xian looked at Lu Renjie carefully.
Seeing that he was about thirty years old, his face looked a little pale, but his overall appearance looked a bit sinister.
He doesn't look like someone he's easy to get along with, so it's no wonder Du Lingfeng doesn't like him very much.
"Master Lu." Du Lingfeng bowed and Xie Xian followed suit.
"Ling Feng, what's the matter? Jianjiang's business can't continue?" Lu Renjie did not stand up, and there was a sense of laziness in his words.
"Yes...the buyer over there is a bit talkative. If you continue to do it, I'm afraid there will be some risks."
"However, I met Brother Xie in Jianjiang. He has outstanding abilities and is willing to cooperate with me. I hope you will learn from this."
Du Lingfeng was still talking with his head lowered, not daring to breathe.
Lu Renjie smiled and stood up slowly.
"Oh? You are Xie Xian, right? What did you do before?"
"Brother Xie opened a brothel in Jianjiang, but..."
"I didn't ask you!" Lu Renjie said coldly, and Du Lingfeng suddenly fell silent.
Xie Xian bowed slightly and said neither humble nor arrogantly: "Back to the young master, I was in the brothel business, but for a while I didn't check it and someone took it for myself. Later I was lucky enough to meet Brother Du."
"Since Ling Feng brought you here, it means that he trusts you. But... Selling private salt is a beheading business. Do you dare to do it?" Lu Renjie's eyes slowly wandered over Xie Xian.
Xie Xian gritted his teeth, raised his head and looked at Lu Renjie with a slightly fanatical look: "Dare you!"
"As long as you have money to make, there's nothing you can't do!"
"There is no difference between opening a brothel and selling private salt. Private salt can be sold privately. If you make too much money on the surface, you may be targeted!"
"To be honest, I was still worried at first, but as soon as I saw Mr. Lu today, my worries were all gone!"
"Businessmen are regarded as lowly by others, but when they meet the young Lu family, they understand that it is not the merchants who are lowly, but the merchants who have no money who are lowly!"
"For a person as wealthy as Mr. Lu, even if a court official comes, he will still be humbled by you!"
Lu Renjie looked around in surprise, then laughed and said: "Ha... ha! Talent, what a talent!"
Then he pointed at Xie Xian, looked at Du Lingfeng and said, "I like this guy!"
"Well said! A merchant is a lowly citizen, but he is definitely not a salt merchant!"
"Officials, do you dare to say anything in front of salt merchants? Money can make ghosts push the wheels. They are ghosts..."
