Section 5 Mansion
"What do you mean?" Mr. Liu asked intriguedly.
"The Ye family is now well-off, and the brothers live together, so they have always wanted to change to a big garden. Last spring, the Ye family bought a piece of land beside the Yongming Canal and set up Zhanyuan. As a result, the governor of Yicheng, Mr. Peng Detian, said that he wanted his mother to come to Yicheng for retirement, and told the Ye family that the master of the Ye family sold Zhanyuan to him. Although the Zhanyuan is not big, the house is exquisite and the courtyard is beautiful. Then there is Xunfeng Pavilion, which is 10,000 taels of gold, but my boss repeatedly praised the value of the young master's garden. Last autumn, the young master of the Ye family drew a pattern. The Ye family's young master drew a pattern.
The senior brother supervised the Jixiaoshan Villa in Jiangbei. He originally planned to move in in winter. However, the Jiangbei Navy Governor Min Yuemin said he liked the name of the villa. He also said that the Ye family wanted to do business and had inconvenience between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait every day. Finally, he even said that Lord Xu Peng was not allowed to let him go, so he didn't let him go, so he sent troops to stuff gold into the Ye family, and lived in first. The young master of the Ye family wanted to argue with Lord Min, but Lord Min kept laughing and refused to move out. Later, he had to agree with the deal."
Speaking of this, both the young lady and the general manager Liu laughed uncontrollably. Imagine the aggrieved but helpless face of a 14-year-old genius boy, which should be very interesting. And that Min Yue, after all, is a second-rank high-ranking military officer and a powerful figure in the Min family, is so rogue. If these things spread in the capital, I believe that many people would be shocked.
The shopkeeper continued, "Since last autumn, the young master of the Ye family and the entire Ye family workshop have been helping the old master of the Qi family to build a house. The house is located in Feiyan Point in the south of the city, with a large scale and a flow of money. Especially the sea at the headland is connected to the sea, there is a very small pier, which also meets the identity of Mr. Qi who has been living for fifty years at sea. It is said that there are no less than a thousand stone carvings. When Mr. Qi looked at the patterns, he burst into tears and praised the young master of the Ye family who understands the sea and understands him. This house is called Guantao Pavilion, and I think it should be completed next month... The young master of the Ye family bought Yanjing Mountain in the south of the city a while ago, and set up nine gardens of big and small on the mountain, preparing to share it with his brothers. The yard was connected by a jade belt bluestone road, and the entire Yanjing Mountain was created by the young master of the Ye family, named Qing.
Quan Village. Especially the house on the top of the mountain should be on the wind, but the breeze is gentle. What's even better is that the place, watching the sea, watching the tide, watching the clouds, watching the birds, watching the clouds, watching the clouds, watching the clouds, watching the clouds, watching the clouds, watching the fog, but all of them are in the best position. There are springs in the front yard, and there are various fruit trees in the back mountain. Monkeys in the mountain like to use monkey brew to exchange for various food from the house. They have a gentle temper and like to play with children. The brothers of the Ye family have all settled in the house and lived a very comfortable life. Only this best house is now occupied by the old man of the Qi family. What do you say, when will the old man of the Ye family be built and when will the young master of the Ye family be returned to the young master of the Ye family? In fact, it was the old man of the Qi family fighting. He took out 100,000 taels of gold to buy the house, but the young master of the Ye family must not refuse. Even the old man of the Qi family has to play tricks on him."
The shopkeeper's words were very vivid and interesting, which made the lady and General Manager Liu very happy. Even the maids who were serving by the side covered their mouths and laughed.
"What kind of house is you who refuse to sell 100,000 taels of gold?" It would be better to say that Mr. Liu was a little unbelievable, so that he would ask questions and let the lady's doubts be explained.
The shopkeeper bowed and said, "I don't know this little old man. However, if the two distinguished guests come from the capital, if they only know that the furniture in Ye's workshop is luxurious, then they may not be enough to know that Ye's goodness. The furniture patterns of the Ye family are all written by the young master of the Ye family. The little old man once heard the words of the young master of the Ye family from the young master's mouth, which probably can answer the questions of the guests. The young master of the Ye family once said that except for the living room, other places are his own, and there is no need to show off or care about others.
If you are accustomed to it, you can only live comfortably. The chairs, tables and beds that look not elegant in the Ye Family Workshop are the most comfortable. Many of the wealthy families in Yicheng are explicitly posing a set of furniture that looks grand, but they are privately utilizing the best and most comfortable furniture that the Ye Family is the best. The young master of the Ye Family has tried his best to build a house for his own home, and it is clearly not a place to receive guests on the top of the mountain. How comfortable is it? That is not something I can guess."
These sentences make sense. There are many noble officials in the capital, and they are inevitably focused on pomp at home, but they rarely consider whether their homes are suitable for use and whether they live in a comfortable place. Most people just think that the hall is gorgeous, but they get used to it anyway. The question of comfort and discomfort is not mentioned.
The shopkeeper was talking about fun things in a bit, and time passed quickly. After a while, Du Fengchi, the young boss of Linjiang Tower, had arrived. Du Fengchi looked twenty-four and five years old, wearing a blue-gray silk shirt, and looked very capable. Du Fengchi listened to the shopkeeper's brief introduction at the stairs. When he heard that the group had not revealed his identity, he was a little stunned. The Du family was born in a sea businessman and was rooted in Yicheng. He has been doing business in restaurants and inns over the years. Du Fengchi traveled around the country and had a wide experience. How could he not see that those guards were all skilled
It's very impressive. Look at the escorts downstairs, but since the master was waiting upstairs, they ordered a few pots of tea and set up a "marching chess" while drinking tea. Although it attracted a lot of idle and objective battles in the restaurant, the guards themselves were very quiet. This discipline and the characteristics of liking chess, I'm afraid only a few imperial guards in the capital have such a pomp. The imperial guards are not taboo when they leave the capital, but who are they guarding? Who is the sacred girl who looks weak and seems to be blowing down by the wind?
Du Fengchi did not dare to be abrupt, and bowed to the two guards from afar and said, "I'll both of you tell me about it, Du Fengchi asked for a meeting." The shopkeeper could approach because he was the one who served him, but Du Fengchi came to the formal meeting. Du Fengchi did not dare to ignore the difference between these. If he came forward rashly because the shopkeeper had a very happy conversation with them just now, it would only leave a bad impression on the other party.
Manager Liu came up from behind the screen and said, "Please please, Master Du." After he led Du Fengchi to the screen, he asked Du Fengchi to sit in his position just now, while he himself stood behind the lady. The position opposite the lady was actually not qualified to sit. Du Fengchi only felt that the other party was unfathomable and did not dare to care about the other party's evaluation of his identity. He asked respectfully: "I haven't asked the lady what to call her."
Manager Liu looked at the lady and saw her nodding slightly. He said in a deep voice: "Miss is named Zhuo."
Zhuo? This is not a big surname in Dongping Kingdom. I am afraid that the only family who can have such a show is the current president of Dongping Kingdom and the general Zhuomang family. Zhuomang's sister Zhuo Xiu is the queen of Dongping, and Zhuomang is a member of the current Dongping Kingdom. Wen Pei has been guarding the northern border with the current Dongping Kingdom for more than 10 years and getting together in the knife.
Du Fengchi immediately felt that the other party asked him to sit down, which was really polite and respectful to him. He didn't dare to ask more questions and said, "Ms. Zhuo is the honor of me to stay in Xunfeng Pavilion. Xunfeng Pavilion has been sweeping continuously since last month and can be moved in at any time. However, the lotus pond has not yet become a scenic spot, and the lotus pods are green, which is a bit unsightly. Please forgive me."
Miss Zhuo nodded slightly and said, "This is the time, how can I force it? The Du family welcomed me warmly, and the little girl also wanted to see the beautiful scenery of Xunfeng Pavilion. Please forgive me if you are upset."
Du Fengchi and Miss Zhuo were polite and introduced Xunfeng Pavilion. Just as he wanted to send Miss Zhuo and his party to Xunfeng Pavilion, a friend ran upstairs and saw Du Fengchi answering with Miss Zhuo, looking anxious.
"Young Master Du, don't delay your business. Just find a friend to take us there." Miss Zhuo pointed to the friend at the stairs and said.
Du Fengchi bowed slightly to apologize, walked over and said a few words to the clerk, his face changed. He walked to Miss Zhuo again and bowed: "The young student should have sent the lady to Xunfeng Pavilion all the way, but my friend has something to do, so please forgive me."
