Mr. Xia looked at the young man across the corridor and said without any sign of weakness: "In this capital, except for the emperor, no one dares to say that he can scare me!"
Several servants introduced him almost flatteringly: "This is the eldest son of Fan Hesui, the most famous person in our Western Xinjiang."
After hearing this, Mr. Xia and others' faces were as dark as water. Fan Hesui of Western Xinjiang was the largest tea merchant in Lanzhou. He was a giant businessman in the Han Dynasty. The tea tax he paid every year accounted for almost half of the Han Dynasty. 30 to 40%, and he also donated huge amounts of salary and tea to the court every year. The emperor was also very kind to their family. He would send people to send rewards to their family every festival. Although no one from the Fan family was there He is an official in the court, but it can also be said that his hands and eyes can reach the sky. Mr. Xia ran out of ideas for a moment, so the person in front of him was Fan Hesui's eldest son Fan Enyu.
Mr. Li next to Mr. Xia covered his face and felt unwilling. Although he had heard of this person, they were businessmen and low-ranking people after all. How could they swallow their breath after receiving such an unreasonable beating today? He wanted to provoke Mr. Xia and Fan Enyu to take action, so he laughed and said: "Isn't he just a tea merchant? The man next to me is the eldest son who is the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs. How can Fan Hesui compare!"
Fan Enyu laughed loudly, "It turns out that he is the son of Xia Jingying, the Minister of Household Affairs, so you are Xia Tong!"
Mr. Li didn't wait for Xia Tong to answer, but he rushed to answer: "What kind of power do you have? You dare to call our Lord Shangshu by his name. Watch your skin carefully!"
Mr. Wu had lost his confidence at this time and looked at Xia Tong's face and acted accordingly. Xia Tong was offended by Mr. Li and became a little unhappy. He pointed at Fan Enyu and cursed: "Straight bitch, it seems that you don't want to live anymore. If you don't apologize to Mr. Li today, you will never leave the door of Furong Restaurant." !”
The smell of lust between the two sides was getting stronger and stronger. Mr. Wu felt that the battle was about to start fighting again. He didn't know what to do, so he secretly withdrew and wanted to go to the owner of Furong Wine Shop and ask him to help calm it down.
After the two sides faced off for a while, Fan Enyu also started to lose his temper. He pointed at Xia Tong and scolded him. Xia Tong couldn't stand Fan Enyu's dirty words, so he raised his hand and shouted: "Give me all of them..."
"Wait a minute..." At the critical moment, two figures flashed out from behind Xia Tong, one behind the other. The one walking behind was Mr. Wu, and the one walking in front was a middle-aged woman, although she was already in her forties. , but the charm is still there, and the appearance and figure are extremely beautiful. With a smile on the corner of the mouth as he speaks, he walks between Xia Tong and Fan Enyu and wishes them a long blessing. Xia Tong and Fan Enyu also return the favor very politely. .
Xia Tongtong: "I'm really sorry for disturbing Boss Liu with such a trivial matter!"
Boss Liu nodded to Xia Tong and said, "Mr. Nodding, "Master Fan from Western Xinjiang rarely comes to the capital, so he comes to our wine shop to support him. It really makes the humble house shine!" Boss Liu saw the servants on both sides gearing up and asked, "Is this an act?" What?" He said with a smile, "Could it be that when the two young masters see the new construction on the third floor, they want their men to go up and help?"
Fan Enyu and Xia Tong also laughed and said, "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding!"
"I'm not confused either. If today's matter can be settled for my sake, it can be regarded as a good thing for me. As the saying goes, there is no acquaintance without fighting. How about I come forward today to introduce you to each other? ?" Boss Liu said calmly.
Xia Tong knew that although Boss Liu was a prostitute, he was well-known in the capital for his sharp eyes and hands. To be able to open such a large restaurant here, wasn't there someone from the court? Now that she was determined to mediate, there was nothing unpleasant about going down the steps, so she nodded and said, "Of course Xia is happy to save Boss Liu's face."
Fan Enyu also smiled and said: "Boss Liu, you're welcome. Since you said so, let's leave it at that for today!"
Mr. Li was resentful in his heart. Unexpectedly, he still didn't get any benefits. He also asked Fan Enyu to be a good person and let it go as soon as he hit someone. But when he saw Fan Enyu bowing to him respectfully, he had to return the favor.
Boss Liu said: "Thank you two young masters for your kindness. I am very grateful." He turned to Fan Enyu and said, "Young Master Xia is a frequent visitor here. Doesn't Mr. Fan come to Beijing every year after the Qingming Festival? He is here now." What is the purpose of the capital?"
"There's nothing wrong. I donated money to help me on my expedition to the west a while ago. Now that I've won a great victory, the emperor also sent people with many rewards. I came to the capital on my father's orders to express my gratitude. Besides, I'm attracted to the southern suburbs of Kyoto. I have a large piece of land, and I want to buy a few acres to build a separate courtyard so that I can have a place to stay when I return to Beijing in the future."
"Then Young Master Fan will remember to come to visit the shop often!" Boss Liu smiled.
Fan Enyu clasped his fists and said with a smile: "It's inevitable!"
Xia Tong didn't want to stay here for long, so he bowed to Boss Liu and said, "Boss Liu, in that case, let's go back and continue drinking!"
Fan Enyu also bowed to Boss Liu and said, "Boss Liu, please do your work first. We will go back to the room to continue drinking."
So Fan Enyu's men opened the door and entered the room again, and everyone outside the corridor dispersed.
After Fan Enyu entered the house, his servants closed the door, and the room fell silent for a moment. The servants stood on both sides of the door with their heads bowed. Fan Enyu calmly ordered his men: "You guys should guard here carefully and no one is allowed to come in."
"yes!"
So Fan Enyu quickly came to the inner room and saw the man sitting in front of the round table in the inner room. He had a handsome back, holding a teacup in his hand, sipping tea with relish. Behind him stood a tall and upright young man.
"It's done!" Fan Enyu saluted the man sitting there.
"Thank you, Mr. Fan!" The voice was low and polite.
"Brother Lu is too polite, it's just a little effort." Fan Enyu suddenly said in embarrassment, "I'm just afraid that if my father finds out about what I did in the capital, I won't know what to do!"
The man stood up and turned around. The person coming was Lu Zuo, and the person behind him was his apprentice Yin Ji. Lu Zuo slowly walked up to Fan Enyu, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that there are things in this world that the eldest young master of the Fan family is afraid of!"
"Brother Lu, please stop making fun of me! If the confrontation with Xia Tong just ended in a fight, it would not look good on both families."
"Don't worry about this. I will send someone to explain it to your father later."
Fan Enyu raised his eyebrows and said, "Thank you, Brother Lu!"
Lu Zuo waved his hand, "You're welcome, I should be the one thanking you for helping me such a big favor."
Fan Enyu smiled and asked: "Brother Lu, why do you want me to help you find trouble with Xia Tong? He is the son of Xia Jingying, the Minister of Household Affairs!"
