The sixth day of July is sunny.
Not only did the Shen family in Xinliang City clean their home yesterday, they even had people come and clean the street outside their door carefully. Red lanterns were hung at the door to show the celebration.
Everyone in the family, men, women, old and young, got up early and tidied themselves up. They didn’t want to look pleasing to the eye, but at least they wanted to look clean and tidy. And everyone's faces were filled with genuine joy and slight nervousness.
Many people from Xinliang City came to the Shen family to show their goodwill. In addition to Yu Wenhe at the beginning, there were many people later, whose status was no worse than that of Gemei Air Conditioner represented by Yu Wenhe. They were all important figures among merchants. The Shen family behaved very restrainedly when facing these merchants. They would not rush to take advantageous things, but would take what they could reach and not touch what they could not. So so far, except for the actual benefits gained from the business with Gemei Air Conditioning itself, the Shen family has not benefited from any other avenues.
In Shen Wentian's words: The Shen family has always been a small family. Even if things are different now, we can't just get dizzy and move around. Everything must be considered in the long run.
I have to praise Shen Wentian for his intelligence. If the Shen family in Xinliang City starts to take advantage of everything as soon as it becomes powerful, and begins to blindly expand the family power, not to mention the antipathy from the outside world, it is likely to attract the disgust of Shen Hao. After all, Shen Hao is not known to the outside world. For a person who likes to show off, he has never heard of asking for benefits from a merchant's land card.
And Shen Wentian is a man of his word in the Shen family of Xinliang City. His thoughts are the thoughts of his family. In addition, the truth behind it is not profound. As long as you can uncover the benefits of Charming Eye, you can easily understand it. Therefore, no one in the Shen family resisted Shen Wentian's decision.
The future is long, as long as Shen Hao's relatives return to their clan and recognize their ancestors, they will become a family in the future. There will always be benefits, and the life of the family will definitely get better and better as time passes.
In fact, in addition to the goodwill shown by various big merchants in Xinliang City, the local government and Xuanqing Guards also expressed goodwill to the Shen family several times, not unlike others.
The chief officer of the local government said that if any of the junior members of the Shen family were interested in studying literature, they could come to him and he could recommend them to enter the official school. In the future, their careers as teachers and officials would be confirmed.
And Xuan Qingwei also tactfully said that you can go to them if you need anything, whether it's public or private. But he won't talk too much like the local yamen, for fear of causing Shen Hao's dissatisfaction.
Just after the hour passed, Xinliang City's teleportation circle flickered with light, and then groups of people poured out from it. It attracted the attention of passers-by around him.
Generally speaking, fleets will not choose teleportation circles to transport goods because the cost is too high and it is difficult to get approval. Not to mention that passers-by had never seen a group of carriages coming out of the teleportation circle. It was also the first time for the clerk in charge of the teleportation circle to see such a rare thing.
But when the procedures were handed over, the little officials who were guarding the teleportation circle hurriedly stood aside and tidied up their manners while calling the chief officer of the teleportation circle over and waiting at the exit together.
A discerning person will immediately guess that there must be a big shot coming out of the teleportation array soon after seeing the appearance of these most exquisite and sophisticated little officials in the teleportation array. These carriages that went ahead should be the companions of the big man.
Thinking of this, many people discovered that there was a group of happy-looking people waiting outside the teleportation circle at some point. These people were all young, in their forties, thirties, and twenties. It seemed that It's welcoming.
"Isn't this the Shen family that has been very noisy recently? The leading people seem to be the legitimate children of the second generation of the Shen family. Why are they here? Like they are welcoming someone? Could it be..."
"Isn't that bullshit! The second generation of the Shen family has all come here. Who else can we welcome besides the one from Fengli City?"
"Oh! Let's go later. I haven't seen the majesty of that adult yet. I heard that he is very murderous."
"Well, that's what the word is, but who knows? It would be nice to stay and watch the excitement."
Many passers-by on the side had guessed who would be coming out later, and some curious and free people stood on the side to watch the excitement. The common people are very curious about the legendary "Shen evil star". In addition, there has been a lot of commotion in the imperial city recently, and it is very rare that even adults like Zuo Xiang and Shangshu can become prisoners. It is said that these things are all done by this "Shen Evil Star" himself.
In fact, if the news had been informed in advance, wealthy businessmen and officials from all walks of life in Xinliang City, and even the garrison people would have come to greet him. This is not a question of willingness or not, but a question of taking a stand. Who is Mr. Shen? Putting aside the evil spirit of the bloody killings in the imperial city, just an official position of the fourth rank is enough to make Xinliang City be treated as a guest of honor. Coupled with the power in Shen Hao's hands and the majesty he brought out, even those who hated him in their hearts did not dare to show off to his face.
However, Shen Hao doesn't like too much ostentation. He learned from Jiang Cheng and Pang Ban. At least to the outside world, he won't deliberately show off or put on any airs. So this time when I came to Xinliang City, I didn't inform anyone else except to ventilate the Shen family in advance.
After more than ten carriages came out of the teleportation circle, there were teams of capable Black Flag Battalion soldiers. They were not only the guards of honor for Shen Hao's official position, but also the force responsible for protecting Shen Hao when he traveled abroad. The number of guards who came with Shen Hao this time was a hundred, not counting the three special guards and the other three masters who secretly protected him.
When Shen Hao walked out of the teleportation circle, the onlookers outside and the clerks and Shen family members who were guarding the teleportation circle were all dazzled by the plain platinum-patterned uniform on Shen Hao's body. Stunned.
There is no evil aura that shocks the senses, nor is there the ferocious aura in the rumors. If you look at him from a distance, there is nothing unusual except that this person is a bit cold and arrogant. On the contrary, it will give people a very attractive look. The heroic temperament, and even the folding fan in his hand added a bit of elegance, making people suddenly think that this was not only a "evil star", but also a rare "great writer" in the old Jing Dynasty.
Shen Hao was still very satisfied with his outfit. This is the new clothes Xia Nu picked for him. The fabric is said to be new, and the gold patterns on it are genuine gold threads, luxurious and not tacky. Of course, when he returned home, Shen Hao used the magic circle to cover most of his evil aura, making him look more relaxed.
"Brother Hao, welcome home!"
Shen Wanjun led the three brothers and sisters as the main force in the reception. The remaining people were all three generations of the Shen family, ranging in age from 20 to more than ten years old.
Except for Shen Wanjun and Shen Wanhui who had met Shen Hao, the rest of them seemed very reserved after seeing Shen Hao.
"Cousins, please welcome me. Let's go home. We can talk after I meet my uncle first."
