Chapter 224 Seeing Lu Xiaofeng Again 1
Chapter 224 Seeing Lu Xiaofeng Again 1
When it comes to Jiangnan Huajia, I am afraid that no one in the world will know it.
The Hua family is a rich man in the south of the Yangtze River, and their property covers a vast area, and a fast horse can run all day without reaching the border.Moreover, the Hua family has a very close relationship with the imperial court, and they also cooperated with the imperial court to open a bank. The contemporary head of the Hua family, Hua Ruling, is a hero and has many friends in the world.
There are seven sons in the Hua family, all of them are outstanding, the most rare thing is such a large family business, so many sons, but they are very harmonious with each other, I have to praise the Hua family's upbringing.In the Hua family, if you want to say that the master and servant are the favorite people, it must be the seven sons Huamanlou.
Huamanlou has been blind since he was a child, and his family loves him even more. He has not let down his family's dedication. Instead of being decadent and world-weary, or becoming a playboy, he is as gentle as jade, tolerant and generous, full of light in his heart, and full of the fragrance of flowers.
The Hua family claimed that the seventh son was ill and blind, but this was not the case.
After the accident that year, Hua Ruling feared that her son would be hurt again, so she taught Hua Manlou martial arts.Hua Manlou has outstanding talent and is willing to work hard. Now he is proficient in flying clouds and flying sleeves, and his ability to hear and distinguish positions is even more unmatched.
After she became an adult, Hua Manlou moved out of her home and lived in a small building facing the street.
Although he regrets not being able to see the world with his own eyes, he doesn't feel sorry for it, and he doesn't want to be protected by his family all the time, but wants to support himself.He feels that maybe he can't do anything for his family, but he can do something for himself. Living alone in the world should be valuable. Even if he is blind, he has the ability to take care of himself. He wants to use his own ability to experience the world well. .
Seeing that the Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching, the Hua family sent a car to pick it up.
Huamanlou entrusts the small building to Ding Xiaocai who is across the street to take care of it.
Huamanlou is a person who loves life, so he likes to grow flowers and plants, take care of them every day, sit in the small building and listen to the passers-by on the street, or play a piano, entertain passers-by with a cup of tea, or tell stories Learn about it, even talk about it.
His small building is open all year round, as long as anyone comes, he is a guest.
This street is always very lively, with silk shops, wine shops, restaurants, powder and rouge, silver houses, grocery stores, etc., and there is a special shop opposite the small building: it is safe to put it in the ground.
The owner of the shop is a delicate and pale young man who always wears old white cloth gowns. He looks like a sick and poor scholar at first glance.His shop is full of ingots, candles, and various paper bundles, and there are a few coffins in the backyard. It seems like a paper bundle shop or a coffin shop, or he also works part-time in Yizhuang, but in fact, this shop The main project of the company is enough to make people jaw-dropping and shout bad luck.
What if a person dies?Of course it is buried in peace.
It's easy to have family and friends, and someone to take care of the affairs behind, but what if you are alone?This shop can solve it!They charge in advance, and when someone dies, they are responsible for collecting the money for burial, and even pay for the first three years to go to the grave.
People in the world are afraid of death, and mentioning death is even more taboo. This kind of business that pays for death in advance is strongly resisted, but the business of the shop is still good.Most of the customers here are from the rivers and lakes. There are always fights and killings in the rivers and lakes. People often die. If they die on the street, the government will collect their corpses. It was too bleak.
The Jianghu people who come here hand over money, make a contract, and explain where they are going in the near future. If there is an accident, the shop will go to collect it and bury it.
The owner of this shop is called Ding Xiaocai, which doesn't fit his image very well, but it fits his personality extremely well.
Ding Xiaocai always had a small iron abacus hanging around his waist. Usually his eyes were lifeless, and he walked staggeringly, as if he would fall to the ground at any time. The abacus was crackling, and his eyes were shining brightly.
Hua Manlou has known Ding Xiaocai for three years, and the relationship is not bad. Although Ding Xiaocai has a lot of death, Hua Manlou still finds him interesting and doesn't hate him.
"Boss Ding, here are mooncakes for you. Happy Mid-Autumn Festival." Hua Manlou asked the other party to take care of the small building. Of course, he had to be sincere.
Things are not expensive, two boxes of moon cakes.
"Thank you, Playboy." Ding Xiaocai accepted the mooncakes calmly and took the key to the small building.
Ding Xiaocai was expressionless throughout the whole process, with a pale face and a thin body, the young man who could be seen picking up the flowers shivered twice, and quietly moved outside the shop door.
Ding Xiaocai was not surprised when he saw the strangeness, he didn't give half a glance, he seemed to hesitate, and suddenly asked: "How is Hua Gongzi's family recently?"
Hua Manlou was stunned for a moment, and although he felt that his question was abrupt, he smiled with a good temper: "Although I haven't been home for some days, everything is fine at home."
"That dude, go slowly." The words rolled in his throat, but he swallowed them back.
He knew about the case of Datong Bank, and reckoned that it should be started, but if he said it for no reason, wouldn't it be too slow to die?He still earns enough money, let alone live enough, anyway, Hua Manlou is still alive, so it doesn't matter if he doesn't talk about it.
Alas, Ding Xiaocai is a time traveler, a hard time traveler.
Do you think he is willing to collect corpses?He was also forced to be helpless.
Sure enough, Huamanlou returned to Taohuabao and learned from his father that there was a problem with Datong Bank.
The bank is a joint venture between the Hua family and the imperial court, and the interests are related, but now there are counterfeit Datong banknotes on the market.These treasured banknotes were quite authentic, and if the bank had not discovered the double numbers during the check, it would not have been possible to tell if they were fake.This matter is serious. After all, the imperial court simply and safely settles taxes and payments in various places through the branch offices of Datong Bank. If there are too many counterfeit banknotes, not only will the bank collapse, but it will also have a great impact on the imperial court.
The imperial court is already arranging imperial envoys. Before that, Hua Ruling can't sit idly by.
Although Huamanlou is Mr. Ruyu, but he is a businessman, he has been influenced by what he has heard and seen, and he is smart, so he is definitely not the type of person who does not understand economics.
So after hearing what his father said, he understood that even if the money bank knew it was counterfeit, it still had to accept it.If it is rejected, the matter will spread, which will inevitably cause panic, and other customers will come to demand cash, because customers are worried about the authenticity of the banknotes in their hands, so the bank will inevitably collapse.
One more thing, although the Hua family and the imperial court are in business cooperation, if something happens to the bank, the Hua family will bear the blame. After all, it is the Hua family who run the bank.
Huamanlou took the initiative to ask to take over the investigation of the matter.
"Just do your best." Over the years, Hua Ruling also knows his abilities, and his sensitivity in certain aspects is very comparable to others.
Time was running out, Hua Manlou did not spend the Mid-Autumn Festival at home, but went to the prison.
It is very important that Datong banknotes are circulated throughout the country. In order to prevent counterfeiting, the imperial court specially invited Zhu Ting, a descendant of Luban, who is known as the "boss of mastery hands" to engrave the printing plate.Unexpectedly, there is a pirated version on the market that is no different from the original version. How could the court not be angry, so Zhu Ting was thrown into prison.
The counterfeiting case of Datong Banknotes has been reported to the officials, and the two arresters Jiang Long and Luo Ma are investigating, but unfortunately they found nothing.
Zhu Ting didn't have much trust in their abilities, and happened to see Lu Xiaofeng leaving a message in the prison, thinking that this person must be very capable in freely entering and leaving the heavily guarded prison, so he followed Hua Manlou and the two arrestees who came to question the case. The head suggested, let Lu Xiaofeng try.
At this time, Lu Xiaofeng was not well-known. In order to reduce the negative impact, Huamanlou didn't want to make a big fuss and invite people to investigate, and also saw that Lu Xiaofeng was used to going in and out of the brothel Chu Pavilion, not only flirtatious, but also glib, always felt unreliable.
In the end, they decided to set up a trick to trap Lu Xiaofeng.
Firstly, it can test Lu Xiaofeng's skills, and secondly, it will make the other party have to help investigate the case.
As a head catcher, he knew everyone in the city well, and his information was very quick. In addition, "Four Eyebrows" Lu Xiaofeng, who loves to drink, was easy to recognize. He thought that he would be able to find his whereabouts soon, but unexpectedly he searched for two days No one was found.
At this time, Lu Xiaofeng was entangled.
Originally, he had just finished taking care of a troublesome matter, solved a chase, and was about to go to the city to find an inn for a good night's sleep. Unexpectedly, a hero rescued the beauty halfway, and there was an extra tail that couldn't be shaken off.
After all, it was his own fault.
Originally planning to enter the city, he passed through a small forest, and when he heard a woman calling for help, he had a chivalrous heart, not to mention a compassionate temperament, so he went to check immediately.The old drama, the bully molesting the girl, the difference is that it used to appear on the streets of the city, but now it is an upgraded version in the woods, the girl was pressed to the ground and pulled her clothes.
Lu Xiaofeng shot decisively, and the bully was injured and fled.
"Stop! How dare you take advantage of me, I'm getting impatient!" Who knew that the seemingly weak girl got up and was about to chase the murderer, but she cried out in pain just two steps away, her face turned pale as she hugged her ankle .
"Girl, are you okay?" Lu Xiaofeng understood, this girl is a little pepper.However, Lu Xiaofeng has also seen many beauties, and the appearance of this girl in front of her is really eye-catching.
When Lu Xiaofeng saw her for the first time, a word automatically came to mind: beautiful appearance.
Her skin is tender and white, her facial features are just right, and the combination is beautiful and moving.It seemed fierce when he opened his mouth just now, but now he looked very pitiful in pain. Hearing Lu Xiaofeng's concern, he smiled shyly, and the instant tenderness made Lu Xiaofeng look straight.
"Thank you, young hero, for saving me. I, I sprained my ankle." The woman was very depressed, but she didn't have much fear.
"Where is the girl going?" Lu Xiaofeng planned to be a good person to the end.
"I'm going to the city." After a pause, he took the lead in introducing himself: "My name is Qiao Xiangyuan, what's your name?"
"Here's Lu Xiaofeng, Lu Xiaofeng with four eyebrows." As he spoke, he fondled the two beards under his nose delicately.
Now Lu Xiaofeng is not only an unknown person in the world, but also very young. In order to appear more trustworthy, he has specially grown these two mustaches, and his self-conscious charm has greatly increased.He likes investigating cases, drinking, betting with monkey spirits, and also likes his beard.
Qiao Xiangyuan stared at him for a while, then laughed and said, "Your beard is so interesting."
Qiao Xiangyuan sprained his ankle, which was not serious, but it was inconvenient for him to travel.
Lu Xiaofeng sent her to a nearby farmer, thinking that the girl would recuperate here, and he would go back to the city first, anyway, it's not far from the city.He and this girl also met by chance, the houses in the farm are limited, and they are lonely and widowed, so you have to avoid suspicion.
Qiao Xiangyuan seemed to have seen his plan, and pitifully asked him not to leave.
How could Lu Xiaofeng refuse a beautiful woman?He nodded in agreement, and Qiao Xiangyuan smiled, quite slyly.
Lu Xiaofeng knew that he had been fooled, and felt helpless and funny.
"Why is Miss Qiao alone? What's the matter?" Lu Xiaofeng asked boredly.
"Why can't I be alone? I'm alone! Don't underestimate me. I'm good at martial arts. I just accidentally injured my ankle before, otherwise I wouldn't fall into the hands of that person." Qiao Xiangyuan was very unconvinced refute.
Lu Xiaofeng smiled, noncommittal.
Of course he could tell that this girl was good at martial arts, but definitely not high, otherwise even if she sprained her ankle, she wouldn't be unable to deal with a man with mediocre martial arts.
After staying at the farm for three days, Qiao Xiangyuan's foot injury was still not healed, but there happened to be an ox cart coming into the city from the village, so they left early.
After three days of getting along, Lu Xiaofeng's characteristic of being attractive to girls was brought into full play.
Although Qiao Xiangyuan likes to tease him occasionally, it is undeniable that he has recognized Lu Xiaofeng as a friend, so he told his story.
Qiao Xiangyuan's family is in the middle of Shu, and his family has been in business for generations, and he is considered a big family in their local county.Qiao Xiangyuan is the youngest daughter in the family, and the three elder brothers above her are from a good family background, so they are very favored.Unexpectedly, Qiao Xiangyuan was 17 years old this year, her parents wanted to marry her, but she didn't want to, and the family locked her up, so she ran out in a fit of anger.
She has always yearned for the prosperous Jiangnan, so she came here.
After the two entered the city, they found an inn to stay.
Lu Xiaofeng is a prodigal son, so of course he can't take a cute girl with him, anyway, he has nothing to do now, and the Mid-Autumn Festival is almost over, so he plans to wait for the Mid-Autumn Festival to be over, and find an escort to send Qiao Xiangyuan home.A girl ran away from home, and the family didn't know what to expect.
Lu Xiaofeng was already exhausted, he took care of Qiao Xiangyuan before he gave birth and did not dare to let go.
He told Qiao Xiangyuan, "I want to sleep, maybe sleep longer, you girl, don't run around, take care of your wounds, and when I'm rested, I'll find someone to take you home."
Then Lu Xiaofeng went back to his room to sleep.
I slept for three days without waking up.
Qiao Xiangyuan would come to see him every day, and he was surprised and admired to see him sleeping soundly, knowing neither thirst nor hunger.
Her foot injury is almost healed, but it hurts occasionally, and it is still not suitable for strenuous exercise.
That night, she told the waiter to take care of Lu Xiaofeng in the guest room, left the inn alone, and went to the night market.
Originally Lu Xiaofeng slept for seven days and seven nights, and woke up on the Mid-Autumn Festival, but this time the rescue was delayed, and he only slept for four days until August [-]th.Lu Xiaofeng opened his eyes and called the shop waiter, ordered a jug of wine, and sighed, only to hear the sound of gambling downstairs.
Lu Xiaofeng was disturbed, he went downstairs and saw that the inn had become a casino, he thought it was noisy, but these people refused to listen to his persuasion, so he immediately showed his might and won a wad of precious money.
After that, he was too lazy to stay in the inn, and wanted to go outside for a walk, and suddenly thought of Qiao Xiangyuan.
"My lord, that girl has already left, she was picked up in a sedan chair."
"Who?" Lu Xiaofeng was taken aback, Qiao Xiangyuan was clearly from the middle of Sichuan, and told him that he had no relatives in Jiangnan.
"I don't know, there are men and women, like family and friends."
Could it be that Qiao's family came here?
Lu Xiaofeng felt a little uneasy, but at this time a group of beggars gathered around, and the money Lu Xiaofeng just won was not stingy, and all of it was given to the beggars.In the end, he was blocked by Jiang Long and Luo Ma, the two captives in the city, saying that he was spreading counterfeit banknotes. He explained that he had won. When he went back to the inn just now, where was there a gambling table?All diners.
Lu Xiaofeng turned around the table, and there was a gambling table underneath, but the policeman would not let him go, so he knew it was the policeman's design.
After arriving in the prison, seeing Zhu Ting, Lu Xiaofeng finally understood the ins and outs of the matter.
Lu Xiaofeng was soft but not hard, even if he was interested in the case, he was very unhappy to be forced to investigate the case like this.
"Where's Qiao Xiangyuan?" Lu Xiaofeng asked.
"Don't worry, Lu Shaoxia, we will never wrong Ms. Qiao, but you are busy investigating the case, so we hired someone to take care of her." No matter how extravagant the hype is, in fact, Qiao Xiangyuan was taken hostage.
Lu Xiaofeng already had a compassionate heart and a chivalrous heart, let alone a girl he knew, so he had to let go of his emotions, grabbed a wad of money tickets as activities funds, and went to investigate the case.
The author has something to say:
This story about Lu Xiaofeng is based on the CCTV movie version.
I wrote about Lu Xiaofeng before, and I didn't plan to repeat it, but I read a lot of TV series and movies, but I couldn't finish writing, and I was more interested in Lu Xiaofeng.This time, I will start from the prequel. If you really don’t like it, you can only say sorry.
