Dingxiang Building

When he arrived at Dingxiang Tower, Ma Jin did not get off at the main entrance. He was called to Quanshiyuan by the Eighth Prince. He had promised the guests to say ten days of books in a month but did not fulfill his promise.

If Ma Jin walked through the main entrance and was hit by a meal customer, he would not be embarrassed to death.

Ma Jin asked the coachman to drive the carriage and sneak around to the back door of the backyard. Then he hid in the carriage and asked the coachman to go to Dingxiang Building to call people. Now it is the time for business, and everyone is working in the store, and there is no one in the backyard.

Ma Jin waited for a while, and the small door in the backyard opened, and Zhou Fuhai and Bao Bao walked out with excitement.

"Young Master (Master), you are back."

"Um."

Ma Jin nodded, looked at the excited faces of the two, and knew that they had been to Quanshi Garden. They were worried about themselves at home, and their hearts were warm.

"I'm fine, thank you for your hard work."

As soon as these words were said, Zhou Fuhai was fine, and the fat little boy Bao Bao ran away in tears. God knows how they lived these days. After Ma Jin was summoned to Quanshi Garden by the Eighth Prince, the two of them had not had a good sleep for a day.

Quanshiyuan is the emperor's palace. They were afraid that Ma Jin would hit the nobles there and cause a big disaster. Now, seeing Ma Jin come back safely, they can't help but feel excited.

...

The three of them exchanged greetings at the door for a while, and Ma Jin sent the coachman away and entered the backyard.

As soon as he entered the door, Zhou Fuhai seemed to remember something, slapped his forehead and said to Ma Jin: "Oh, I almost forgot, Young Master, there is a fat man named Wu these days. He comes to Dingxianglou to find you every day. I was just greeting him in front of me."

"Fat man named Wu?"

Ma Jin read a lightly, then asked: "Is that fat man named Wu Peng? He smiled with a naughty face and felt a sense of despicable aura all over his body."

"Yes, yes, that fat man looks like this. At first I thought he was a bad guy, by the way, I even said he was a friend of Young Master Cousin." Zhou Fuhai nodded.

The little fat man Bao Bao also echoed: "This fat man is so rich. He orders a lot of things every time he comes. He also said that he has been to Qing with his master..."

"Ahem cough cough..."

Ma Jin coughed hard, interrupting Bao Bao's words with embarrassment on his face. He couldn't help but complain in his heart that this fat man had no mouth and said everything, and he was not afraid of teaching the child badly...

Although Ma Jin complained about Fatty Wu's big mouth, he still ordered Bao Bao.

"Uncle Zhou, this guy is a friend of mine. In this way, you can quietly take him to the backyard and don't disturb other guests. Also, send someone to the bookstore to find Manager An. I have something to do to find him."

"Well, I know." Zhou Fuhai nodded and turned around and left.

Ma Jin asked Bao Bao to make some food for him again. Although the imperial chef in Quanshiyuan was very skilled, Ma Jin still felt that the food his own apprentice cooked was suitable for his own preference.

The fat man went to cook for his master excitedly, while Ma Jin went back to his bedroom.

Shortly after he returned to his room, Zhou Fuhai brought Fatty Wu in. When Fatty Wu saw Ma Jin, he grinned and laughed loudly, opened his arms and gave Ma Jin a bear hug.

"Brother, I haven't seen each other for many days, I want to die of my brother."

Ma Jin struggled hard, but he was not interested in the hug of a man...

As the saying goes, there are four irons among men, classmates, comrades and dirt, and one is cough cough... (river crab)

After all, Ma Jin, a friend who had experienced one of the four ironclads, avoided Fatty Wu's bear hugs. He was afraid that Fatty Wu would be embarrassed, so he patted his shoulder to show his intimacy.

He smiled again and said, "Fatty, I haven't seen you for a few days, and you are much richer."

Fatty Wu's smile froze on his face, and when he heard Ma Jin's words, he burst out again.

"Brother, don't make fun of me. You have been in a big light these days. Even my father has been talking about you these two days, saying that you are capable, this character.

To be honest, except for that boy Xu Zhi, my father has never praised people of my generation."

"Oh, is that?"

Ma Jin heard Niu Ben say that Fatty Wu's father was in the canal transport business. He had some official background and monopolized nearly 40% of the canal transport in the three places of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei. He has a great power and can rank in the top 20 among the businessmen in the capital. Otherwise, Fatty Wu would not have easily beaten the son of the uncle.

Ma Jin also knew that he had some reputation in the capital now, but he didn't expect that even business tycoons like Fatty Wu's father knew him.

"I've been awarded too much, but I've been a false reputation, but Fatty, have you run away from home? How do you know about my uncle?"

Ma Jin said modestly, and then asked Fatty Wu again. He remembered that when he was in Tianxianglou, the guy patted his chest and said he wanted to break off the father-son relationship with his father, make a name for himself, and go back and slap his father in the face.

It's only been a few days now, so why do you listen to his meaning? This kid has gone home.

"Hey, isn't this money left? I owed the inn for a few days' worth of living. The boss said he wouldn't let him live, so he drove Fat Master out. Then I had to go home. After I got back, my father beat me up and knelt down for another day in the ancestral hall.

In the end, my mother felt sorry for me and made a fuss with the old man. The old man was afraid of his wife and could not do anything to me. This matter was over." Fatty Wu said proudly, with a fat face showing off his temper.

"Uncle and aunt...the relationship is so good."

Ma Jin looked at the shameless Fatty Wu in front of him, and didn't know how to answer, so he could only politely laugh.

If he had this prodigal son, he would have to hang himself on the roof and suck him to death...

...

Ma Jin pulled Fatty Wu to sit down at the bedroom table, handed him a cup of tea, and then looked at Fatty Wu with a smile.

"As the saying goes, you won't go to the Three Treasures Hall without any trouble. Fatty, I heard Uncle Zhou say, come to Dingxianglou every day to find me, tell me, what's going on."

Fatty Wu took a sip of tea, and heard Ma Jin go straight to the point and smiled.

"Oh, looking at my brain, I'm just chatting with my brother, why did I forget the main business? Brother, do you still remember Tianxianglou?"

Remember, of course, I remember that when Fatty Wu mentioned Tianxiang Tower, a pair of tall and erect round things suddenly appeared in Ma Jin's mind.

Ma Jin subconsciously swallowed: "Of course I remember, what's wrong."

Fatty Wu immediately described with a smile: "Didn't I go home before? I stayed at home for two days. Seeing that I performed well, my father rewarded me with 200 taels of silver.

My brother knows me. I can’t save money the most. With the money in my pocket, I plan to go to Tianxianglou to play.

As soon as I arrived at Tianxianglou, I met Xiao Taohong. Wow, this little girl, when she saw Fat Master, her eyes were not eyes, nose, and nodded. I thought I hadn't come to see her these days.

Brother, can you blame me? I don’t have money? I’m so cool about this little Taohong…”

"Ahem."

Ma Jin coughed, interrupting the endless talk of Fatty Wu. Looking at Fatty Wu's puzzled eyes, Ma Jin rubbed the bridge of his nose helplessly.

"Tell the point."

Why didn't he find out last time that this fat man is still a chatterbox...

"Ah, yes, let's talk about the topic. After I coaxed Xiao Taohong, I was drinking. The Shui Yiyi, who was drinking with us last time, came and said that their boss wanted to invite her brother to Tianxianglou to discuss matters and asked me to pass on a message in the middle."

Fatty Wu didn't say anything anymore, and explained the matter clearly in a few words.

"The boss of Tianxianglou?"

After hearing Fatty Wu say that, Ma Jin frowned. Last time he went to Tianxianglou with Fatty Wu Niu Ben, Fatty Wu told him that the boss of the Tianxianglou was mysterious.

After a fourth-rank general Huwei offended him, he was demoted to a small officer less than a year and his future was lost. This person's energy was really shocking.

However, for no reason, Ma Jin couldn't figure out what the mysterious Tianxianglou boss was asking him to do, but he just told him intuition that something was wrong.

Also, how could this Fatty Wu suddenly be so kind and help convey the message? There must be something he doesn't know here.

Ma Jin narrowed his eyes and glanced at Fatty Wu coldly, and a sneered on the corner of his mouth: "I don't know what kind of temptation conditions the boss of Tianxianglou has offered to make Young Master Wu work hard every day to find me."

Fatty Wu saw Ma Jin staring at him like this, knowing that he couldn't hide it anymore, so he laughed dryly.

"Hehe, it's nothing. Isn't this my little brother really likes Miss Han among the four courtesans? Shui Yiyi said that if I could invite my brother to Tianxianglou, I'll let Miss Han accompany me once."

As soon as the fat man said this, Ma Jin was furious at that time.

Can you still want such a friend? Just think about yourself, but you don’t know how to find me...
