After going through the ceremony of apprenticeship, Li Hui and others are considered disciples of the Xiao family from now on.
Next, Lao Cheng and others chatted with Xiao Feng for a long time. After agreeing to have a drinking party with Xiao Feng next time, they prepared to stand up and leave.
Before leaving, they had to keep those few boxes of generous gifts as a gift for their son to become a disciple.
Xiao Feng originally didn¡¯t want to accept these generous gifts, but he couldn¡¯t win over a few of them, so in the end he could only ¡°reluctantly¡± accept them.
Xiao Feng wanted to stay with them for lunch before leaving, but Lao Cheng and others were quite sensible. Looking at the small ostentation of Xiao Feng's home, he knew that if they stayed here to eat, the Xiao family would It's going to be a chaotic mess.
Just like now, after adding the seven or eight servants from the three families, they only had more than 20 people rushing in, and the Xiao family didn't even have a place to stay.
Thinking of this matter, Lao Cheng was the most outspoken and said directly to Xiao Feng: "Brother, why are you still living in such a small house?"
When Xiao Feng first bought this house, it seemed to be extremely generous. However, in the eyes of Cheng Zhijie, Li Jing, Yuchi Jingde and others, it was too shabby.
Blinking at Xiao Feng maliciously, Lao Cheng's eyes were partly ambiguous and partly vulgar and said: "Brother, if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about other people. If in the future, um ¡¡±
After saying this, Lao Cheng gave me a wink like "You know what".
This is what Lao Cheng is like. Once he gets acquainted with someone, he speaks without hesitation and acts without any scruples.
" Lao Cheng's flirtatious eyes made Xiao Feng shudder immediately. For such a big and powerful person to still flick his eyes around like this, their lethality is no less than that of Sister Ruhuafeng in later generations.
However, Xiao Feng also knew the meaning of Cheng Zhijie¡¯s words. Doesn¡¯t this ¡°other person¡± refer to Li Manyu?
Recently, the relationship between Xiao Feng and Li Manyu has been heating up day by day. The two of them had already vaguely made their relationship clear due to the celebration party the night before, and got Li Xiaogong's tacit approval.
At this time, Xiao Feng really needs to consider this aspect.
After coming to Datang, Xiao Feng felt that his responsibilities were heavier than Mount Tai, but no matter what, he still had to live his life.
Therefore, what should be fought for should be fought for, and what should be fought for should also be fought for. Similarly, what should be enjoyed should always be enjoyed.
Xiao Feng is not a hypocritical person, and he will not deliberately lead a life like an ascetic just because he has such a heavy burden on his body.
When Xiao Feng has the opportunity to get together with such an exquisite woman as Li Manyu, Xiao Feng will not miss this opportunity. In future generations, no man can give birth to such a proud woman as Li Manyu. thoughts.
Similarly, if there is an opportunity to change to a better house, Xiao Feng will not hesitate.
Since Aunt Xiao moved to her home, the house has bought two maids and two boys. It does seem a bit crowded, so after some hesitation, Xiao Feng nodded slightly.
Seeing that Xiao Feng was a little hesitant, Li Jing misunderstood what he meant, so he smiled and said: "Brother, if you don't have a lot of money at the moment, just tell our buddies clearly, if there is more, we can help you." You can still afford a mansion."
??????????????????
When buying a house this time, Xiao Feng naturally wanted to choose a luxury house. The houses introduced by the brokerage shop were all ordinary houses, which obviously no longer met his needs at the moment.
This is normal. The Tang Dynasty pays great attention to a strict hierarchy. Common people and merchants, no matter how rich they are, cannot live in high-end mansions. For Xiao Feng, status has long been no problem. With his status as King Qin's brother, even if he wanted to live in a top-notch mansion in Luoyang, no one would dare to have any objection.
"However, there are only a few houses like this, and most people will not sell them unless they build a new one. However, how can Xiao Feng have the patience to build a house by himself? So he must want to buy a ready-made mansion.
At this time, Yuchi Jingde remembered something and said quickly: "Brother Xiao, if you really want to buy a house like this, you have an excellent choice. Not far from the Qin Mansion in Guiyifang, there is the Minister of Rites Zhang Shilang A house in Luoyang was built only about half a year ago. It was extremely luxurious. After it was built, their family still lived in Chang'an. However, this house in Luoyang has never been inhabited, so it is equivalent to a new house. Now Zhang Shilang is entrusting his colleagues in Luoyang , I want to sell this mansion and build another one in Chang'an.The bigger one, this house is quite nice, it only costs more than 2,000 yuan at most. Maybe, I can help you ask. "
The mansion with two thousand guan can indeed be regarded as a good mansion. Moreover, the mansion is located in Guiyi Fang. It is not only next door to the Qin Mansion, but also very close to the Grand Manager's Mansion. Xiao Feng was naturally satisfied and nodded with a smile. He said: "Brother Yuchi still has some skills, so I'll leave it to you. If the other party is willing to sell it, I'll go take a closer look at the mansion."
"Brother, why are you so polite?" Yuchi Jingde grinned.
Although Yuchi Jingde doesn't talk much on weekdays, he is not an indifferent person.
When Xiao Feng sent Li Jing, Cheng Zhijie, Yuchi Jingde and others out of the house with a smile and returned to the courtyard, Xiao Feng was a little excited.
Xiao Feng is not short of money. Li Xiaogong's six thousand gu bounty is still locked in the cabinet intact, and now "Piaoxiangfang" can provide Xiao Feng with an income of at least 20 guan Tang Tongbao every day. So Xiao Feng really wanted to change to a mansion, at least one with an inner courtyard and an outer courtyard, which would also be convenient for Aunt Xiao's seclusion.
Just like today, there were so many guests at home that Aunt Xiao could only hide in the room and did not dare to go out.
" Xiao Feng has great respect for Aunt Xiao. Not to mention her status as the mother of the country, just because she is Li Manyu's mother, she may be his mother-in-law in the future. How can she not respect her?
A man lives his whole life, what do you want?
In addition to the responsibilities that a man must bear, he must enjoy what he should enjoy. He must not treat himself badly. Think more long-term. Even in the future, his women and children must also allow them to live a good life. Thinking further, the parents of a woman¡¯s family must also allow them to live a good life.
So, when you can eat well, eat better, when you can wear nice clothes, wear nicer clothes, and if you can live more comfortably, you should naturally live more comfortably. This is a matter of course.
When Xiao Feng returned to the courtyard, he saw the Lin family father and son waiting for him.
Today was originally the day Xiao Feng agreed to meet Lin Ningping, Lin Zifeng and his son, and Lin Ningping and his son had already arrived. However, there were important guests at Xiao Feng's home, so they waited in another room for a while.
It¡¯s just that after seeing their boss today, the Lin family father and son had more respect in their eyes.
What kind of voice does Lao Cheng have? This broken gong-like voice could be heard by the entire courtyard as long as it spoke, so the Lin family and his son had already got a rough idea from Lao Cheng's words. After that, Qin Qiaoyun gave them a little explanation, and they It's clear.
It turns out that their boss is indeed a noble man as they expected!
The brothers of the King of Qin and the General Manager are brothers to these famous generals of the Tang Dynasty, and they are also the teachers of these famous princes and party members in Luoyang. Isn't this status noble enough?
¡°I¡¯m afraid that even the Lin family and his son can¡¯t reach him even if they look up.
However, the Lin family and his son are somewhat underestimating themselves at this moment. The Lin family and his son of "Piaoxiangfang" are now famous figures in the entire Luoyang business community. They have been vaguely regarded as Taishan Beidou by the Luoyang business community, and their reputation is huge. No two.
Speaking of Lin Ningping, everyone who knows him praises and praises him.
Lin Ningping is truly a righteous person who can research the method of "Datang Yaki" and publish it for free so that all Datang wine merchants can gain the capital to compete with Korean wine merchants!
However, only the Lin family and his son knew the details.
After going bankrupt in the past, they were so depressed that they wanted to sell their house, but they never thought that they would have such a glorious day. They all knew in their hearts that all this glory originally belonged only to the young man in front of them, this low-key and unassuming figure.
Just like this young man at this moment, although he is the brother of the King of Qin and the Grand Steward, and a teacher of a group of princes and party members, the smile on his face is still so kind, and his words and deeds are still so approachable, without any inconvenience. With such domineering power, how could Lin Ningping and Lin Zifeng not be willing to be convinced and work hard for them?
Lin Ningping and Lin Zifeng both feel that in this life, they can meet Xiao Feng¡¯s boss and work for them, this life is enough!
Naturally, Xiao Feng would not know what Lin Ningping and his son were thinking at this moment. He asked Lin Ningping and Lin Zifeng to come over today because he had important matters to continue the next stage of development, which needed Lin Ningping and Lin Zifeng to complete.
After greeting Lin Ningping and his son with a smile, Xiao Feng said: "Uncle Lin, Dalang, let's go sit in the room. Today, I have some things that I need to discuss with you."
