Du Xi was shocked when he heard the servants at home coming to report that it was Li Shi Luosanlang visiting him.

Logically speaking, with his friendship with Luo Yong, Luo Yong came to Beijing this time, and it was normal to come over to say hello to him. But with Luo Sanlang's style, Du Xi thought that the possibility of his visit was infinitely close to zero.

Unexpectedly, he came. Du Xi thought about it and guessed that the other party was going to find him at this time. He knew that he had basically come to deal with it. He sorted out his clothes and went to meet customers calmly.

According to Du Xi's intention, naturally I still want to make friends with Luo Yong. This person is very interesting. From time to time, I can make some fresh things. If I make good friends with him, it goes without saying that I can make money. I can often get first-hand supplies, which is very beneficial to Du Xi's connection development.

"Why did Sanlang think of me today?" Du Xi smiled and said to Luo Yong in the hall.

"Just just passed by your door, I came in and checked you." Luo Yong didn't lie and wrote a draft.

"Have you ever entered the palace?" Du Xi didn't argue with him.

"I entered the palace this morning and just came out." Luo Yong said.

"From the palace, how can I pass by my house?" Du Xi said with a smile. The coffin board was too lazy to even lie.

Luo Yong also smiled, then asked him, "Do you know that Yan Liulang, the money-catching man?"

"You said that Yan Huo?" Du Xi frowned. Could it be that Luo Sanlang came here for the sake of Yan Huo? That was a vicious dog. If it were not necessary, Du Xi would not want to provoke such a person.

"Do you have a friendship with him?" Luo Yong asked.

"I have no friendship, I just met several times." Du Xiyan said.

"What kind of person is that?" Luo Yong asked him.

"He is a cruel and treacherous villain." Du Xi said bluntly.

"..." The answer is really beyond Luo Yong's expectations.

"What do you want to know about this person?" Du Xi asked him.

"He took my deposit, but did not deliver the goods to me on time." Luo Yong sighed.

"It's not the first time he's doing something like cannibalism." Du Xi said in a slightly gloating tone.

"Oh..." Luo Yong sighed. He was really blind at that time. He actually thought the other party was a good person. How could he be so lame when he looked at people?

"If you really feel sorry for the money, I can ask for it for you." Du Xi said. If Du Xi himself came forward, Yan Hu would naturally give him some face.

"Forget it." Luo Yi waved his hand. There was no need to make things difficult for the money. If he called such a person resentment, he was afraid that he would be unfavorable to Qiao Junlin and the others in the future. When dealing with those treacherous people, either don't have any entanglements with him or just kill him in one move, and don't give him a chance to turn the tables, otherwise he would be afraid of endless disasters in the future.

"I'm here today for this?" Du Xi asked with a smile at Luo Yong.

Luo Yong smiled and said to him: "I have a fellow villager who is studying in four schools now. He is a diligent and motivated person. He just observes his actions, but he is a little confused. If Qilang is free, would he give him some advice?"

"Since it was entrusted by Saburo, I should do my best." Du Xi said with a smile: "Don't worry, I've called this for me. I've been very idle every day."

"This person is named Qiao Junlin." Luo Yong said.

"Why didn't Sanlang introduce me?" Du Xi asked with a smile.

"I'm going back to Lishi soon." Luo Yong also said with a smile.

"If I help this, would you thank me?" When did Du Xi do a vacancies for someone?

"Of course I need to take care of your love. When will Qilang go to Lishi County again? If you fall in love with my family, just talk." Luo Yong said generously.

"One word is determined!" Du Xi's eyes shone. There are still many good things in Li Shi County. How can this coffin board be too difficult to talk about. His family's business is good, and there are so many people queuing up all day. At this time, Luo Yong said this, basically the meaning of giving him special treatment.

The two of them said a few more words, and seeing that it was getting late, Luo Yong got up and said goodbye. When Du Xi heard that he had sent the carriage back, he asked the people in the mansion to arrange a carriage to send him back.

After sending Luo Yong away, Du Xi returned to his study, holding his chin with one hand and tapping the table with the other. He also heard of Qiao Junlin, a little, and had seen him once...

These days, the young talents above are fighting for the dark, and the young grass below are all trying to emerge. This is also the norm, but there are only a few who are as sharp as Qiao Junlin.

If such a person is normal, Du Xi will definitely not be willing to take him to play. If he is accidentally blocked by the other party, what good will it do to him?

But if Luo Yong had this relationship, Du Xi thought the deal was not too much. The coffin board seemed to attach great importance to Qiao Junlin. When we met, we chatted with him for a long time. Did that guy have ever been in circles like that before?

I heard that his cousin Du Gou was also in Lishi County recently. Du Gou has always been unfamiliar with fighting. Since his uncle Du Ruhui passed away, he has faded out of the power center and went to Laizhou, and even had no contact with his family.

Such a person is suitable on Luo Sanlang's territory. There is a coffin board to suppress it, and the place is peaceful for a while. Yan Wei went to see it earlier, but he probably didn't find anything to take advantage of it. In the end, he just swallowed a deposit and gave up.

Luo Yong left Du Mansion and did not return to his own courtyard, but went to Qiao Junlin and the others. Yesterday, he agreed with Azhi that he would go to have dinner tonight, and it was almost time for dinner.

Because of the appointment in advance, Hou Lin did not go out for social events on that day, but returned home early to prepare for hospitality.

Hou Lin is quite talented, which can be seen from the fact that he can work in Hongwenguan. He is also willing to do things and is not focused on studying and studying, but because of his meager background and too shallow foundation, it is very difficult to go further.

Looking at the many changes that happened to Qiao Junlin recently, Hou Lin sometimes wondered whether he was right or wrong to bring this child to Chang'an City.

This time, it was also a blow to him. I hope that Luo Sanlang's arrival would make the kid feel a little relaxed. I heard that the relationship between him and the two was pretty good. Qiao Junlin looked very happy when he went out this morning.

After Hou Lin roughly understood Luo Yong's character, he did not treat him as a guest, but only regarded him as his nephew's friend. He was not out of his words. This meal that night was full of joy.

In the next few days, Luo Yong went to have dinner every day. The night before leaving Chang'an City, Luo Yong said to Hou Linyan: "You rent this yard, and you think you will have a lot of rent every month. After I leave, the yard over there will be empty. If you don't dislike it, you can move in and live there."

Because he has been getting along well these days, Hou Lin didn't feel embarrassed when Luo Yong said this at this time, but he didn't accept it. He just said that he could still bear it and thanked Luo Yong for his kindness.

In fact, their family's current financial conditions are indeed not good. Just the salary that Hou Lin earns, he has to pay rent and support Qiao Junlin's schooling. He often has to go out for socializing and socializing. The family often has to make ends meet. Fortunately, Azhi can still supplement them a little. Sometimes when the family has no food, rice and flour, Azhi buys the money he earns, which is shameful.

But no matter how hard life is, he cannot easily accept gifts from others, otherwise he will easily be looked down upon. Hou Lin has been struggling in Chang'an City for so many years, and he still knows this truth, so even though he is very moved by Luo Yong's proposal at this time, he still chooses to refuse.

"It's okay, when I leave tomorrow, I will leave the key with Azhi. If you want to move in, you can move in at any time. If you don't want to move in, you will have to worry about you going over and help me see the yard over there." Luo Yong didn't force it.

Hou Lin smiled bitterly when he heard this. The yard was empty there, and the key was held in Azhi's hand. Luo Yong had a verbal statement first. This was the case with their family. How could he still resist moving in?

Qiao Junlin listened silently to the conversation between the two of them, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He said why Luo Sanlang has been so enthusiastic these days? It turned out that he was waiting here. He was helping and taking care of others. He asked Qiao Junlin what kind of mood he was now?

He just felt that he was too weak, and he was always disgusted with this weakness, especially at this moment.

Luo Yong saw his reaction in his eyes, knowing that this kid was probably stubborn again, but he had no choice but to do anything about it.

The reason why he did not introduce Qiao Junlin to Du Xi personally was because of this. With Qiao Junlin's current identity and achievements, he basically needs to look up to people like Du Xi, but Luo Yong did not. This is the current gap between them.

In situations like Qiao Junlin, there seems to be no other way except waiting for him to become stronger.

Luo Yong also believed that sooner or later he would become stronger by himself, but the price would probably be very heavy.

The next day, Luo Yong set off, Hou Lin was going to work, Qiao Junlin was going to school, so only Azhi came to see him off.

Luo Yong handed her the key to the courtyard, and then told her about the location where the silk cloth was placed at home.

Luo Yong brought a few pieces of silk that the emperor gave to him and put them on the carriage, preparing to take them back to make clothes for his brothers and sisters, and also gave them a few pieces to governor Hao as a thank-you gift. This time, he borrowed Teng Chao from him, so Luo Yong didn't have to be blind.

The remaining silk cloth was left in a side room in the courtyard. He told Azhi that if they didn't have enough money, even if they used the silk cloth for flowers, they would not be given away for free. When they could make money, they would make up for it. However, he would not need these ones for a while.

...

The carriage left Chang'an City and ran eastward. They wanted to cross the Yellow River in Tongguan, then head north through Fenzhou, and then cross the Luliang Mountains, which was Lishi County.

Luo Sanlang sat in the carriage and shook, feeling that Chang'an City behind him was getting farther and farther away from him.

...

A few days later, in the east city of Chang'an, a hawker accidentally knocked off a brick on the wall after going to the toilet. It fell along with the bricks, and there was a white translucent object as thin as a cicada's wings. There were some golden particles inside the object.

The vendor thought that this thing was unusual, so he quietly hid it in his sleeve and presented it to a small official he knew in the capital. The little official presented the thing to his boss, and his boss gave it to his boss. Soon after, the thing fell into the hands of the emperor.

His Majesty the Emperor invited many well-informed ministers in the court to see him, but no one could tell me why. So he invited many monks and Taoists to see him, and there was no gain.

So in the days that followed, His Majesty the Emperor had to take out this thing and think about it.
