- It was already evening when the convoy arrived at Luliu Town. The sky was orange, the mountains were dim, and the lights of the town were beginning to turn on. Since the trade in Luliu Town is border trade with Qingguo, it is very frequent, and the jurisdiction system is quite unique, and the curfew will be very late. As a result, the bustling town became another lively scene, completely alive.
When the big businessman Chen¡¯s motorcade first entered the town, it attracted attention, but was soon lost in the crowd of casual people. People are accustomed to the comings and goings of merchant caravans. Here, traders come and go almost every few days. No, just three days ago, another convoy returned to the town. Many people talked about how much money that group of people made and what kind of goods they had.
At the end of Chen's motorcade, there was a confused ride on an ordinary carriage. After hearing the familiar commotion, Dr. Liu, who was mixed in the motorcade, finally calmed down and took a look at the glimpse of the car curtain, revealing Showing excitement.
came back!
Finally home!
His carriage is missing a driver, and the old horse follows the convoy, which is his treatment. This is also convenient for Dr. Liu. Looking around, the atmosphere in the team was dull. Many people were walking with their heads down. It seemed that the people on the left and right were casting strange looks, including contempt, surprise, disdain, etc. It seemed that everyone's faces were burning.
As one of the big merchants traveling between Qing and Qi, how could Chen's large caravan ever be in such a mess?
As a well-known escort agency in Luliu Town, has Anyuan Escort Agency ever suffered such heavy losses? Even if it happened, it was more than ten years ago.
Doctor Liu did not dare to stop the carriage, but secretly opened the curtain and jumped out quickly. With an ooh, he fell down like a dog. The crown and hat fell off, and he was very embarrassed. However. No one helped him up at all, but he heard a few cold snorts and evil breaths from someone in front of him. Dr. Liu was startled, immediately shut up and got up, lowered his head as if being stared at by a wolf, blended into the crowd, and disappeared. This slip away was frightening.
"Hmph, Chen's Caravan, Anyuan Escort Bureau, you wait, I have never been so humiliated before, don't ask for it on my head in the future!"
Wait until you are far away. Doctor Liu rested his head on a wall, sweating profusely, and licked his chapped lips. He looked at a street not far away from his home, and secretly hated Chen's caravan and the Anyuan Escort Agency. If it weren't for their anger, he would not have suffered endless looks and bullying along the way. His drinking water dropped to one-third of the original, and his food intake dropped to one-third of the original amount, making it even more mediocre. It's hard to eat, but if you don't eat it, you'll starve to death. I think many people would prefer that he just die. Over the past few days, he has lost more than ten kilograms of meat from his round, fat waist. His stomach was burning. How had he ever suffered such a huge living sin?
After resting for a while, Dr. Liu staggered and touched the wall along the street towards home.
Dr. Liu sneaked away. Naturally, this move could not be hidden from the people in the convoy and the escort agency. If not for Boss Chen¡¯s order. Someone had already raised a knife to catch him.
As a doctor, I don¡¯t want to save anyone. It pissed off a lot of people.
Many people are guessing that even if Boss Chen is considerate of human feelings. He won't settle the scores, but Anyuan Escort Agency won't let him go either. A doctor is a respected person in any country, but if Dr. Liu's reputation becomes infamous this time, it will be a different situation.
"Jiang Guard, I'll just say goodbye. I'll apologize to Boss Chen. The remaining escort agencies will send someone to deal with it. Say goodbye!" On the street, the convoy stopped for a while, and Wang Hai, the head escort of the Anyuan Escort Bureau, proposed to separate lanes. . Arriving at Luliu Town, the escort mission of Anyuan Escort Bureau was completed.
"Please!" In addition to the big boss, the guard chief Jiang Long of Chen's caravan can make the other half's decision, watching the people from the Anyuan Escort Bureau leaving one after another. They experienced life and death on the road, fought side by side, and rescued people. The two felt a little sympathy for each other. However, the personnel losses on both sides were too heavy, and no one had time to be polite.
"Jiang Weiwei, I have to say goodbye. Thank you for taking care of me along the way -"
"Farewell!"
"¡ª¡ª"
Three small caravans, Datou Wu, Feng Gao, and Yu Qiuxia also came to say goodbye. The group separated into a large group, and Guard Jiang also made the decision on his behalf. It is worth mentioning that Jiang Long went over to thank Zhang Weidong and asked him to stay, while Feng Gao and Yu Qiuxia also came to express their gratitude and said they would definitely come to repay him. However, Zhang Weidong did not agree to Jiang Long's invitation, and Datou Wu had already made arrangements. The Zhang family and his party checked into a certain inn directly.
Jiang Long went to inform Boss Chen that Chen¡¯s caravan set off again to return to Chen¡¯s Villa.
Although Luliu Town is large and the terrain is slightly flat, the view is not wide enough. Although it is a border town, it far exceeds the area and population of a county seat in Ren County. As a big businessman, Chen has a villa that can accommodate many people and goods, which is very convenient, which is great.
Needless to say, what happened to Chen¡¯s caravan stirred up someThe whole family couldn't sleep well.
Dr. Liu has an upright courtyard at a certain corner of a street in Luliu Town, with several entrances and exits. It also has a small plaque of "Liu's Mansion". It can be regarded as a wealthy and respectable home. He had wives and concubines, sons and daughters, and seven or eight servants and maids. It can be seen that although Dr. Liu did not open a medicine hall or clinic, he practiced medicine with the caravan, and his income was much higher than that of ordinary doctors.
Boom boom boom!
Inside the door, the porter's boy had just finished his meal and was about to be lazy. Then he blew out the oil lamp and was about to go to bed. Usually at this time of night, no one comes to visit the Liu Mansion, so the concierge's job is very easy. Unexpectedly, I took off my clothes and heard someone banging on the door, making such a loud noise.
The boy immediately became angry and turned over to cover himself up as if he didn't hear anything. But the person who came here was very stubborn and kept banging on the door. If this commotion continues, Madam will be alarmed. The boy had no choice but to get dressed in a hurry and get off the kang. He held a lamp in one hand and a spare stick with the other. When he opened the door, he saw a beggar lying on the ground. Just as he was about to give the beggar a stick, the beggar's voice startled him.
"Liu'er, give me some water to drink quickly!"
"Master? Master is back!"
Hearing this, the concierge immediately turned on the light and took a first look. He saw a dirty and embarrassed fat man weakly leaning on the threshold. His hair was messy, his crown was missing, and he even lost a shoe. When I first heard the sound and then distinguished it carefully, I was suddenly surprised and shouted loudly. The sound was very festive.
As usual, Dr. Liu returned safely after being away for several months. Everyone will be relieved and formally line up at the door. A pot of charcoal fire was lit, purified water was sprinkled with willow branches, and a string of firecrackers were set off, in order to remove all the ominous atmosphere brought back from the outside to Dr. Liu, and then welcome the safe return of Dr. Liu. At this time, the servants and maids rushed forward to please him and get some rewards from Dr. Liu. This time is no exception.
A loud shout shocked everyone. The courtyards on the left and right suddenly came alive, and the hurried footsteps of many people became louder and louder.
"Master!"
¡°Dad!¡± ¡®¡¯
"Congratulations on your return, Master!"
"Goodbye, my dear¡ª¡ª"
"¡ª¡ª"
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Many people gathered in the lit lobby, and charcoal braziers and willow branches were set up to purify water. Although many people thought that Dr. Liu's appearance was wrong, they still paid compliments and eagerly awaited the reward.
"Everyone get out of here!"
After drinking water and regaining some strength, Dr. Liu shouted angrily one after another, leaving everyone at a loss. He was no more than a charcoal brazier and ignored the willow branches to purify the water. He was supported by his servants and walked inside. What a reward. They were all gone, leaving a bunch of people staring with big eyes and small eyes.
"Okay, it's all gone, it's all gone. I'm tired, please prepare hot water, clothes and food for me!" Upon seeing this, the wife Liu quickly arranged the trivial matters, even sending away her two concubines and several children. . She followed alone.
Dr. Liu is so embarrassed that he seems to have lost a lot of weight. Something bad seems to have happened?
After a while, in the brightly lit hall. Before he could wash up and dress properly, Dr. Liu wolfed down a plate of cold white flour buns, a plate of cold stir-fried vegetables, and a bowl of cold leftover rice porridge. Mrs. Liu was dumbfounded and wanted to interrupt several times to ask, but it was not as important as Dr. Liu's eating.
After a while, the dishes on the table were empty, not even the soup was left, and Dr. Liu finally burped with satisfaction. He held a cup of hot tea in his hand, smelled the tea intoxicatedly, and then put it down. It was really that he couldn't eat anything. Overeating and feeling like food is piling up in your throat.
However, it feels so good to be full and full. Even though it is just the leftover steamed buns, vegetables and rice porridge, it is better than delicacies from the mountains and seas!
It¡¯s better to be at home!
"Sir, is it not going well on the road?" Mrs. Liu rolled her eyes and finally found an opportunity. She asked cautiously, her eyes moving flexibly. Mrs. Liu is good at calculations and is in charge of the Liu family's financial expenses, including Dr. Liu's expenses.
Over the years, every time Dr. Liu comes back with the caravan, has he not been dusty but rosy?
Only this time, I lost my crown, lost my shoes, smelled bad, and ate the same leftovers as a starving ghost. Could something be wrong with Boss Chen¡¯s goods? This is no small matter!
"well¡ª¡ª"
"Is it Mr. Chen who is dissatisfied with you?"
Doctor Liu¡¯s face straightened: ¡°That¡¯s nonsense! Women like women love to think wildly! By the way, prepare two generous gifts of ten gold coins immediately. Master, I will go to the mayor¡¯s house and President Jin¡¯s house to give gifts. This is a good thing¡ª¡ª¡±
A gift of twenty gold coins? ! Crazy, crazy!
? ??I fainted¡ª¡ª¡±
Mrs. Liu's heart suddenly felt like it was being grasped tightly by five fingers. She was so stuffy that she couldn't breathe. She put her hand on her forehead and leaned softly on the Taishi chair. This is the Liu family's three-to-one asset. If it disappears, unless the property is sold, the family will have to live in poverty. This is similar to cutting Liu's heart.
This must be a big disaster!
This one kills with a thousand swords!
No, I am in charge of the accounts and property, no one can take away a single seed!
Dr. Liu was nervous at first and tried first aid, but soon discovered that Mrs. Liu was pretending to be faint and became angry. He went up and slapped her several times, causing Liu's left and right cheeks to swell up. Dr. Liu even said that if Mr. Liu continues to be unreasonable, he will divorce his wife.
Although her arms couldn¡¯t twist her thighs, Ms. Liu still prepared a gift. However, the gift was really generous. Silks, ancient porcelain, paperweights, porcelain pillows, ancient books, etc., many of Dr. Liu¡¯s familiar and treasured items were all added in. On the contrary, gold and silver coins took up the portion. rare. This is because Dr. Liu was careless and did not check, otherwise he might get violent and hurt someone again.
Seeing Dr. Liu hurried out with two servants and gifts, Ms. Liu howled a few times and then stopped. She had never paid off this day, and she secretly held a grudge. She immediately collected some shop contracts, gold and silver, and quietly called her two sons back to her parents' home overnight. Her natal family is also in the town. It was originally the home of a butcher. There are three brothers in the hall, all of whom are famous butchers. They are all tall and thick, and they are not easy to mess with.
Mr. Liu is not stupid.
Dr. Liu must have committed something serious and offended the Chen family, one of the big businessmen. Otherwise, he would not have given big gifts to the mayor of the town and Chairman Jin of the Chamber of Commerce. Not to mention the mayor, Chairman Jin is also the president of the Luliu Town Merchant Union. He is also one of the largest merchants in Luliu Town and even in Qi State. He is as rich as the country. It is said that some princes will be polite when they see him.
And with the wrapped gold, silver and contract, she will have enough for the rest of her life.
In the middle of the night, dark clouds came in and cold raindrops enveloped Luliu Town.
However, the Tongliao Inn was very lively.
A group of people checked in in the evening. They were just ordinary tourists at first, but because of several consecutive waves of people visiting with gifts, the shopkeeper was alarmed. As a result, the guest room service immediately improved to a higher level. The shopkeeper even brought a pot of hot water to find out the origin, but there was no result, so he gave up.
It was not until the curfew in town that the inn became quiet. (To be continued.)
