After the Fairy Disappeared

  Chapter 614 Exploring each other

Fang Canran smiled and said, "This dreamland actually exists in a small town ninety miles northwest of Lingxu City. There should be two or three thousand residents so far, so it won't die out in a short time. The mountains and rivers there are beautiful, the folk customs are simple, and the women are gentle and beautiful." , Mr. He can experience it carefully in his dream."

  He Lingchuan was moved: "Thank you, Mr. Fang, this is exactly what I need right now!"

  The nightmare left in Panlong City screamed all day long, he had to find a nest for this guy.

   But Fang Canran seems to be smiling a little strangely?

   Then He Lingchuan had to pay the bill.

  Dun Garden is mainly engaged in exotic treasures. It is one of the largest treasure merchants in Lingxu City. It holds auctions regularly, also to establish and maintain its own brand name. For an unusual treasure like Mengxiang, as long as buyers demand it, Yuyuan will find a way to find it.

  Of course, the price of a certain product is definitely not low.

   This Xiaocheng Mengxiang ate up his nine thousand six hundred taels of silver in one go.

   Among them, 8,000 is the purchase price, which must be transferred to the seller; Dunyuan will also charge another 20% of the handling fee, which is 1,600 taels.

   Don't look at Fang Canran smiling reservedly, but he is not polite at all when collecting the money.

  He Lingchuan also felt pain secretly, and bought a toy after spending nearly 10,000 taels of silver (nearly 10 million yuan).

  Of course he smiled nonchalantly on the surface: "Boss Fang is a busy man, and it's rare for me to catch him once. How about staying in Pianxiang Villa tonight for a light meal?"

  He just mentioned it in passing, but Fang Canran readily agreed: "That would be great. I have heard that the honey wine in Pianxiang Villa is delicious, and even Commander Fan San covets it."

  This guy's news is really well-informed. "Small, enough."

  Of course it’s not dark yet, and it’s not time to drink. Fang Canran picked up the teacup, and started another conversation: "Mr. He, the young Junyan is really from Fu Kingdom?"

   "Well, my background is not worth mentioning."

"Regardless of the origin of the heroes, there are many heroes in Lingxu City who come from small countries, and now they all have a seat in the court." Fang Canran waved his hand, "Look, my ancestors are not natives of Lingxu City, but Mr. Bihe Decades earlier."

"Lingxu City has been in existence for nearly six hundred years. For people like you and me, there will be no dividends for decades earlier and decades later. It all depends on your own hard work." He Lingchuan laughed, "I don't know where the ancestral home of Chief Fang is. ?”

   "My ancestors wandered indeterminately and made their homes all over the world, but I heard that they first lived in Tabu, which is now near the southern border of Chiyan. I wonder if Mr. He has any impression?"

  He Lingchuan said: "Yes, that's great! Mr. Fang's ancestral home is Chiyan, and we are very destined."

  Tabu is the junction of the southern part of Chiyan and the Twilight Plain, where Fu Shanyue had a conflict with Zhongsun. He Lingchuan's bighorn sheep was also plotted against by Mai Xuewen (Xi Yunhe)'s subordinates there, and was almost taken away by Snail Toad.

  He Lingchuan was surprised because he knew that before the establishment of Chiyan Kingdom, Tabu belonged to the former Yuan Kingdom!

  Strictly speaking, it is part of the Twilight Plains. It's just that after Yuan Kingdom was destroyed and Chiyan was established, the Demon Emperor placed it within the territory of Chiyan Kingdom.

  So the civilians born here, even though their feet are the former land of Yuan Kingdom, they are all Chiyan people with legal status, not the untouchables of the Twilight Plain!

  The exquisiteness in this made He Lingchuan's thoughts turn.

   Did the other party specifically bring this up to him, and why?

  Fang Canran smiled: "That's right, the first time I saw Mr. He, I immediately fell in love with him."

   "Because of this sentence, I should understand it." He Lingchuan rubbed his hands, "Forget it, don't wait for dinner. How about we drink in the lake first?"

"good!"

  Then the two of them strolled to the back mountain. The tiger, who had been dozing on the big tree outside the courtyard, opened his eyes and let out a snort.

   This is Jiao Yu asking him if he wants to go with him, He Lingchuan waved his hand at it: "Go to sleep, Brother Fang and I will go to the boat to drink."

  The space of the boat is too small. After two people are seated, the tiger cannot stretch out inside.

   After hearing this, the tiger put its big head back on the branch of the tree, hung on its four legs, and continued to snore with its eyes closed.

  Fang Canran walked around and said: "The old trees in the crown prince's garden are treasures, and they are older than the trees in Dun Garden."

   "Pianxiang Garden was in the hands of the previous owner, has it been brilliant?"

"That's right, Chunyu's family married their daughter twenty years ago, and they held a banquet at Pianxiang Villa. At that time, my uncle brought me over to deliver the goods. I still remember that there were so many tourists here, and the scene was very lively. Now—" Fang Canran sighed With a voice, "Now that the owner has changed, it is much quieter."

   "One wink from the emperor, two hundred years of prosperity and wealth are all gone." Chunyu's family stood in the wrong line, and their home was confiscated.

  Fang Canran glanced at him and laughed loudly: "Who says no?"

  Laughter, each seems to have its own meaning.

  The two walked along the newly built pier to the boat. The servant had already arranged the food and drink, and bowed to leave.

  He Lingchuan punted the boat himself and drove the boat to the middle of the lake.

  It is windy today, and the boat is just swaying along the shallow waves, which is not interesting.

  The blue lake is full of waves, and the autumn light is fleeting. Fang Canran praised: "Your lake is beautiful."

  The sweet-scented osmanthus wine has been warmed in a small red clay stove, and He Lingchuan filled Fang Canran's cup to seventy percent: "Anecdotally, General Jinjiao is easy to see, but Chief Fang is hard to invite."

  Fang Canran is deeply trusted by General Jin Jiao, and manages a huge property. It is said that Fang Canran, the seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister's door, has the power and power in his hands, and he is usually busy, so being invited to a banquet is called a compliment.

"Mr. He, doesn't he know that he is already very popular? I heard that even this painting boat was delivered to the door by the fifth son of the Ke family himself, so why should I make a trip?" Fang Canran toasted with him, "Now in Lingxu In the city, Prince Chiyan is the most popular, and Young Master He is the second."

oh? I already have such a high reputation in Lingxu City? He Lingchuan stretched out his chopsticks and pointed to the shore: "I don't feel any benefit, only various inconveniences."

  The two of them walked all the way, with tails following them behind them.

  Fang Canran also felt it, and turned to look at the figure on the shore: "Is that Tongxinwei?"

   "Yes. When I go in and out, they all follow, even outside the toilet. It's very troublesome."

"There are no more than ten people who can guard the hut with one heart." Fang Canran smiled, "Young Master He should be proud. You must know that ladies and ladies from every family are also inquiring about you. That's a good thing."

   "What's the matter?" He Lingchuan took a mouthful of old vinegar peanuts. This is the chef's unique skill, sour and sweet, I don't know what else she put in besides honey and vinegar, in short, it is sour but not harsh, sweet but not greasy, soft on the outside and crispy on the inside, especially with wine. "Can I have an affair?"

   "Maybe." Fang Canran gave him a wink that any man could understand.

  He Lingchuan smiled and swallowed his wine.

  Fang Canran asked him again: "After the elixir case is over, where will Mr. He go?"

This was the first outsider in Lingxu City who asked about his whereabouts, and He Lingchuan's expression changed: "I intended to come to the mayor of Lingxu City to gain some insight, but unexpectedly got involved in this kind of turmoil. I don't know if I can get out of my body, I didn't dare to think about it." Things to come."

   "General Jinjiao is thirsty for talents, and he has heard of Mr. He's name. If you are interested, I can make a recommendation."

  He Lingchuan wondered: "I don't know the way of business, I will only cause trouble, I'm afraid I can't make money for General Jinjiao."

   "There is a specialization in art." Fang Canran said, "As Mr. He is so famous and famous, others would not dream of envying him. It would be a pity if he didn't dig it out."

  He Lingchuan shook the wine glass lightly: "Mr. Fang is saying that I should sell it for a price, or choose a good owner to live in?"

"Master He has other ambitions?" Fang Canran said warmly, "Looking at the past hundreds of years, Bafang Junyan came to Lingxu City to work hard, but only to sell his literary and martial arts to the emperor's family." Or, to sell to princes and generals It is also a noble way out.

  The young man in front of him, what qualifications does he have to be exempt?

  He Lingchuan laughed: "My fortune is shallow, and I'm afraid I can't afford the wealth of Lingxu City."

   "If Mr. He is not well-connected, how can he deal with these aristocratic families with ease?" Fang Canran raised the corner of his mouth, "An ordinary person would have been dragged into the whirlpool long ago, and his life and death will not be known."

"Whirlpool?" He Lingchuan sighed, "I offended Commander Fan Er, but as a result, Mr. Ke Wu sent me such a big painting boat, which became the focus of the audience that day, and the Fan brothers took a look at it at Pianxiang Villa that day. Right. Oh, isn’t this putting me on the fire?”

"These two sides have some feuds, but if the Fan brothers are unhappy, the Ke family will do it. I guess, the Ke family probably calculated that the Fan brothers would appear in Pianxiang Villa that day, so they did it intentionally." Fang Canran I couldn't help laughing, "Young Master He just happened to be in the middle of the meeting, otherwise they would find other things to fight each other."

He took a sip of wine: "I remember that one year, Commander Fan bought a pair of armbands from Dun Yuan, just for the third son of the Fan family. As a result, the Ke family saw that the opportunity came, and immediately went to increase the price. The arm sleeves that started at 9,000 went straight to 150,000!"

   "Commander Fan didn't get it?" He Lingchuan had a fight with the violent bear in Baishazhen, and he didn't remember what arm sleeves it wore; after all, if it was worn, it might not be able to chop its forearm with a knife. "He doesn't look like he has no money."

"Boss Fan saw that the Ke family is so motivated, so he had to give up." Fang Canran shook his head, "For strength, the Ke family is not as good as Fan; but for fighting for wealth... Want to compete financially with the Ke family in Lingxu City? Everyone has to think carefully .”

   "The Ke family is richer than the Ke family, and their reputation is well-deserved." He Lingchuan shook his head, "I heard that the Ke family has been favored by heaven for more than a hundred years. Who wouldn't envy it?"

  Fang Canran smiled: "Dun Yuan and the Ke family have always had business dealings. The Ke family really doesn't care much about money when they buy treasures. However, the number of goods that the Ke family has ordered from me for a long time has dropped a lot in the past ten years."

   "Oh?" He Lingchuan wondered, "Excuse me, what is it?"
