Chapter 41 Uncle Rong
I went shopping around Beishi, but I didn't find Tan Qin'er, not even a password for the Buddha's Gate.Instead, I saw some traces of the code being deliberately erased.

Whether it was done by Foshengmen itself, or destroyed by other forces, it is unknown.

Later, Su Yu took Xiao Huan to Kong Shuo's warehouse to look around, and made some remarks in a dictating manner, but afterward, even Su Yu himself didn't know what he said.The purpose of going here is to increase the sense of presence and get to know everyone.And the person in charge here is Duan Youde, who can be regarded as a half acquaintance.

Su Yu didn't want to interfere too much with Kongshuo Group's economic affairs, he just needed to arrange a role like an "accountant" to keep an eye on the logistics situation and financial accounts here.

Coming here to collect bills every month is what he cares most about.

But who to send here to keep an eye on it?

This position may seem easy, but it is not that simple.Because this person not only has to keep an eye on the accounts, but also the goods in the warehouse.Prevent Kong Shuo from cheating and defrauding his partners.Kong Shuo and those around him are a group of people with unclean backgrounds. A few years ago, they were bandits who were "on the road".To deal with this group of people, it is definitely not appropriate to send a little maid over.

Su Yu's arrival aroused the great attention of the Kong Shuo Group. After hearing the news, Kong Shuo hurried over and invited all "friends" with great fanfare to Tingfengge, the largest restaurant in Beishi.

At the banquet, Kong Shuo raised his wine glass high and said with a smile on his face: "The young talent beside me is Su Yu Su Jinfeng, Mayor of Shangjun, the lord of Anle County. People's best friends. I am honored to invite all the dignitaries and nobles here today. Everyone is the face of Shangjun Ma Ye. And I, Kong, is just a small businessman. Please take care of me in the future."

Kong Shuo's move is naturally to show his backstage in front of everyone, hoping that the "leaders" and "colleagues" of all parties can see the situation clearly and don't come to trouble him.

Those who can sit here to eat are all veterans from all walks of life, and they can see the situation clearly between the conversations. Everyone came to toast the county horse one after another, but Su Yu drank a little too much.Claiming to be incapable of drinking, he left the table early and went home.In order to show his respect, Kong Shuo also sent a few thugs to follow him all the way, and sent the county master to the gate of Qinghuafang before turning back.This tossing was quite grand.

"Uncle, you are back. Miss is waiting for you. If uncle doesn't come back, Miss will send someone to Beishi to look for it."

"Oh, I happen to have something to look for her too."

After Su Yu said something, he and Wang Xun went up to the small building.

Since she had money in hand, Tang Linger was not as busy as before.Today I just went out to inspect and came back again.Tang Linger not only wants to make money, but is also responsible for spending money everywhere.The homes of several brothers in Dongfu need to be taken care of, and there are many cousins ​​who need to be properly taken care of.There are also some girls of the Tang family who are married, if they are not doing well, they will come to Tang Linger for help.

Tang Ling'er would often throw money out. After all, these people or their families are the backbone of the army and cannot be neglected.

The manager of the silver warehouse of the Duke's Mansion is Tian Jing, for example, Su Yu has to go there to collect five taels of silver per month.As for the special expenses in the mansion, Tang Ling'er had to ask for special approval.Of course, it's okay to find Tang Zhen, but Tang Zhen has a lot of things to do, and he doesn't have the energy or willingness to take care of these trivial matters.

Su Yu went upstairs and saw that Tang Linger's face was normal, not knowing what was going on, so he sat down and waited for Tang Linger to speak out.

Tang Ling'er said in a light tone, "My uncle reeks of alcohol."

Su Yu nodded his head: "Go to Beishi to look at the warehouse. Kong Shuo is very hospitable. He invited friends from all walks of life to have a party and had a few more drinks."

"Kong Shuo is happy to do things. It's only been a few days, and the warehouse has been bought? My uncle told me a few days ago that I want Tang to invest in Kong Shuo's warehouse. I will prepare 5000 million yuan. I don't know if Kong Shuo will agree. "

"It's up to him to agree or not. Don't say there are 5000 million, even if there is none, he can't say anything. At worst, it will be deducted from the warehouse income in the future. I have discussed with Kong Shuo, and we will only pay one-tenth of it. money."

"Then how much did Kong Shuo spend on buying the warehouse?"

"13 billion."

"Oh, then we only need to pay 3000 million?"

"Yes."

Tang Linger showed a rare smile on her face, but the smile disappeared like a draft: "I didn't expect my uncle to be so skillful. But I still want to remind my uncle to keep a distance when dealing with those people, and don't get along with them too deeply." Good. Save yourself from getting involved in some bad things."

"Well, I have my own measure."

Su Yu blinked, feeling something was wrong.Didn't Wang Xun say he was in a hurry, and he didn't seem to be in a hurry.

At this time, Wang Xun came over with hot tea and poured it for the two of them.

"The Empress Dowager Chen sent two more palace maids, and asked you and me to get one each. I wonder which one my aunt likes?"

"Let's choose Linger first."

"But I don't want to choose." Tang Ling'er took a sip of tea and put down the cup: "I used to have an old Diaosi named Hu Rong by my side. He was a dowry eunuch brought by my mother from the palace. He knew accidents quite well. The best hand in the family, because he is old, he stayed with me. From the time I can remember, he has been by my side. But half a year ago, I saw that he was old, and I couldn't bear to let him get up early and late with me, so I let him go home Retirement. Now I am determined to get him back."

Su Yu thought for a while, and said, "Ling'er meant to let him stare at the two little eunuchs?"

"Not staring, but leading."

Tang Linger, like her brother Tang Zhen, usually had no expression on her face.People can't guess the inner activities through the expression.

Su Yu nodded: "Ling'er is the master."

Tang Ling'er immediately said: "But he used to live in the main room of the third entrance courtyard. If he is invited back again, he still lives there. But my uncle lives in the side room. I'm afraid it's not appropriate."

Finally when it came to serious matters, Su Yu didn't express his opinion immediately.

Tang Ling'er asked, "What do you think, my aunt?"

Su Yu felt a little turmoil in his heart, nodded and said, "Ling'er is the head of the family, you decide."

Tang Ling'er said: "I've already thought about it, just add a courtyard wall between the main room and the side room. In this way, you are all independent courtyards, and you don't have to interfere with each other. It seems that there is no distinction between superiority and inferiority."

One is upright and the other is biased, how can there be no distinction between superiority and inferiority.Su Yu waved his hand and said, "I don't think it's necessary to be so troublesome. The rich and powerful families pay attention to Feng Shui, and they suddenly cut off the yard in half, which must have touched a taboo. Now that the Tang family is in the recovery stage, at this time the courtyard is cut off, what if something happens? People often talk about things that are not beautiful. I think it's better not to touch that bad thing."

"Grandpa really thinks so?"

"Yes." Su Yu stood up: "Is there anything else Linger needs to do? If not, I'll go down first."

Before Tang Linger could speak again, Su Yu walked away in a huff.

When Su Yu walked away, Tang Ling'er straightened her body: "It is said that my uncle has a good temper and looks kind to his servants, why is he so rude to me?"

At that time, Lin Wan and Wang Xun were still in the room, neither of them said anything.

Tang Ling'er turned her head and asked, "Wang Xun, do you know if my uncle has been angry outside?"

Wang Xun was obedient, and said cautiously: "Miss, my uncle should not be irritated by anyone outside."

"What do you mean to say that I was angry with him? I was kind enough to think of him, why did I make him angry?"

"Miss, I don't know if I should say something or not."

"But it doesn't matter."

"Miss usually speaks the last sentence. Even in front of the Duke, she never bows her head. And the uncle is the eldest son of Su, and he is well-clothed when beating children. And...you know, he beat The child also has a stubborn temper. Did the miss forget that you almost had a big incident when you were three years old. On the day of the wedding, you gave each other gifts, but the miss thought the Golden Laughing Buddha was ugly and refused to wear it, so Su Yu bit the miss on the neck After taking a sip, the lady pushed him into the pool. When he landed on the shore, he wanted to bite someone for revenge. Such a small child would be relentless, which shows that he is also the master who refuses to admit defeat at home. Three years old and old, the old saying is really true."

-

Su Yu went back to his room to take a rest, and when he woke up, he recalled what happened just now, and lamented that drinking was a mistake.My good friend Lin Chongyang once said that brother Su is known for his temper after drinking, and the more he drinks, the more tempered he becomes, and he is completely different from when he is not drinking.Su Yu usually seldom gets drunk.But today, a group of people drank at least three catties of alcohol. Looking at Tang Linger's "overbearing" energy, it was inevitable that she couldn't control her emotions.

He slapped his forehead: "Baicai, I still expect her to help me arrange for my cousin Su Ji. Now that I offend him, it may have repercussions."

Jumping out of bed: "Xiao Huan, do you know Miss is still at home?"

"Waiting for someone at the gate."

"Wait for who?"

"Hu Rong." Xiao Huan came over, "The whole family has gone, even Tang Fei and Tang Cui. I stayed to take care of my uncle, so I didn't go."

Su Yu was puzzled: "What kind of status is this Hu Rong, and the young lady needs to put up such a battle to welcome him?"

"Uncle, you don't know yet. He has a high status in Miss's heart. This old Diaosi is older than the second master. He watched Princess Changxia grow up."

Princess Changxia is the younger sister of the first emperor, the aunt given to the emperor today, and the continuation of the old An Guogong Tang Qiong.This princess gave birth to two children in her lifetime, one is Tang Zhen and the other is Tang Ling'er, with a difference of 11 years.Tang Qiong was already in her 60s when Tang Linger was born.An old woman, she is so spoiled that it is indescribable.

And Hu Rong is the dowry eunuch of Princess Changxia.It is said that he also accompanied him from childhood to adulthood.Later, Tang Qiong arranged to serve Tang Linger specially.Now that Tang Ling'er saw the old eunuch, she had to address him as "Uncle Rong".It is also heard that the old eunuch had a high position in the palace.Now Li Wantang, the number one expert in the university, was just a small follower in front of him back then.The number one swordsman of the Tang Sect, Lin Shu, had challenged the old eunuch three times, but the old eunuch politely refused, saying that he was too old to fight, and that Lin Xun was the number one in the Tang Sect.

"Then I will go to meet you too."

When Su Yu came to the main gate, he saw an old Diao Si getting off the car.

Miss Fifteen stood at the door and greeted her personally, while a group of people from the house lined up on both sides.

Lao Diao Si was overwhelmed by the flattery, with a smile all over his face, he walked in front of the young lady with messy steps, grabbed Tang Linger's hand, and suddenly burst into tears: "I just know that the young lady is reluctant to let the old servant go. The old servant wants to miss, the past six months The old slave doesn’t taste good at anything, even if he grounds the beef and feeds it to his mouth, he doesn’t feel delicious. I just think that one day the young lady will think of the old slave, and let the old slave return to the young lady’s side.”

"I haven't seen you in half a year, but Uncle Rong has lost weight." Tang Linger scolded, "Chen Qi, Wang Xiu, how did you two take care of Uncle Rong? You two are guilty of making Uncle Rong so thin."

Chen Qi, Wang Xiu, and the two servant girls immediately fell to their knees and kowtowed like pounding garlic.

"Miss, don't blame them. They are still very good to me." Lao Diaosi held Tang Ling'er's hand and did not let go: "I can't see Miss, I think about it day and night, how can I not lose weight. This time Miss said Nothing can make the old slave go, if the lady insists that the old slave go, the old slave will go on a hunger strike and die. Even if he dies, he will die by the lady's side."

Before Tang Linger could speak, Su Yu walked over.

"No. I won't let Uncle Rong go again." Su Yu saluted and said, "My son-in-law, Su Yu, pay my respects to Uncle Rong."

Lao Diao Si was taken aback for a moment, and after looking Su Yu up and down, he immediately turned around and saluted: "Oh, this is the county horse master, this old servant is very polite."

Lao Diao Si let go of Tang Ling'er's hand, and turned to grab Su Yu's hand.After grabbing it, Su Yu was taken aback.For a skinny old man at such an age, his internal strength is only above Shun Inner Court.Let alone an ordinary boy, even a famous swordsman like Lin Xiao might not be able to beat him.

Although this old man's movements are stiff and his limbs are limited, if he uses the move of "Desperate Blow", he has every chance to seriously injure the top swordsman.Vaguely, he even felt that the internal strength of Lao Diao Temple was equal to that of Senior Sister Yan when he was fighting.

"Uncle Rong grows stronger and stronger." Su Yu said enthusiastically, holding Lao Diao Si's hand.

"It's not easy for the county horse master to achieve little." Old Diaosi patted Su Yu's hand, then let go, and frowned again: "Oh, seeing the county horse master reminds this old slave of a It’s a person. They look very similar. But… hey, I’m old, I’m old, I’m confused, and I just can’t remember the name of that person. Beautiful men, all beautiful men.”

Perhaps it was a common problem of old people, Lao Diao Si was also a little chattering, but no one dared to say anything about him, they just smiled and coaxed Lao Diao Si to walk to the backyard.

Later, Tang Ling'er arranged the two young eunuchs into the old Diaosi house and asked them to serve Hu Rong.The two young eunuchs seemed a little dissatisfied with this arrangement, but Tang Linger turned and left without giving them a chance to speak.

Seeing Tang Linger go to the small building, Su Yu followed.

"What is my uncle going to do?" Wang Xun stopped Su Yu at the door.

"I want to see Miss."

"It can't be done." Wang Xun frowned and said, "Young Master is so angry with Miss. From what I know about Miss, Miss won't calm down after three or two days. I think Young Master should come back another day."

"Do you know what a small grudge doesn't stay overnight? After the night, either the grudge will be eliminated, or it will become deeper. Today I must see Miss, you go and send me a message."

"Grandpa, have you figured it out?"

"Well. Think it over."

"Hey! Wait." Su Yu lowered his head and took out his pocket.

"what happened?"

Su Yu took out an earring from his bosom pocket, the earring was small, golden and emerald, and handed it to Wang Xun: "Give this to Miss."

"What is this? It looks like a child's earring."

"Sister Wang Xun doesn't need to say much, when she sees this earring, the lady will think of something."

Wang Xun took a closer look at the earrings, and suddenly his eyes lit up: "Oh, I remembered. So Miss's earrings are in your hands!"

"Huh? How did Sister Wang Xun know?"

"And how did you know it. When you fell into the pool, it was Lin Wan and I who fished you up. You were too young at that time, so I guess you couldn't remember." Wang Xun raised his brows upside down: "Just because I lost an earring , the few of us were beaten. I didn’t expect that it was stolen by you!”

"Sigh, sister Wang Xun, you used the wrong word. Since I have made a marriage promise to her, she is my daughter-in-law. If I take her things, it can only be regarded as taking. It is not stealing."

"But... when did you take it off?"

"She took it off when she pushed me into the water."
