Chapter 250 Pies fall from the sky?

Luoyang, Liu Mansion.

Early in the morning, as soon as the chicken cried twice, the housekeeper came from the front yard panting: "Old old... Master,"

The master of the Liu family frowned and scolded: "Is there anything that makes you anxious in the morning?"

The butler was obviously only a little distance from the front yard to the back yard, and was not Tai Chi Palace, but he was so tired that he was a little panting, which showed that he was running urgently.

"Master, please..... Please give me a post."

"Work post? Whose family's prayer post makes you so anxious? Will the king of heaven come?" But when he spoke, he was secretly shocked. Ordinary people's famous prayer posts are usually made of wood and bamboo, but this letter is white all over, with faint light floating. Only after I got it, I realized it was carved out of ivory.

Generally, people who were not familiar with him must have a post before visiting him, also called a post, which is a bit similar to a business card a thousand years later. Generally speaking, the post that the owner received will not throw away, but will collect it. In order to show his character, Qin Hao originally wanted to make some jade, but unfortunately, the Tang Dynasty stipulated that officials who were not first-class or above were not allowed to use jade as daily objects, so he had to settle for the second best choice. For a moment, it led a trend. The children of powerful people followed suit, and the price of ivory doubled in Chang'an. Even Li Chengqian thought this was very stylish, and he actually made a few for himself, as if he had to hand over the post to someone's house.

The master of the Liu family naturally didn't know all of this, but he also knew that the manager sent by him to Luoyang in a small family was really nothing in front of a real great man. He didn't dare to neglect any more. He quickly opened it and saw a line of small calligraphy written neatly on it: Qin, the leader of the Qing Gang.

"Is it Qin Hao? He is back?"

"Yes, I heard the rumors on the street that he accompanied His Highness King Yue on Luoyang tour, but most people didn't take it seriously. It should be true. Early in the morning, a young man who was performing in a large theater knocked on the door, threw it down and left."

The butler was obviously a little confused when he spoke. On the contrary, the master slapped himself twice and woke up. He immediately said to the butler: "Don't be stunned, hurry up and prepare, tell the people, give me a quicker pace and sweep the streets of the front door as quickly as possible! Also, call me that stranger here!"

It is said that people are old and mature. This master can manage Luoyang for the Liu family, so he is naturally one of the best outstanding figures in their family. This old man actually guessed Qin Hao's origin in just a short while. Otherwise, with their family's strength, how could he be qualified to let the scholar of Tianshu come to their family to visit?

Although Qin Hao only worked as a sixth-rank Feng Yanlang, and even now he has no official status, his status has actually declined instead of decreasing, especially after marrying Li Xin, it is almost the only one among those big guys.

Although the Liu family still called themselves the Liu family in Hedong, in fact, they moved to the south since the Yongjia Rebellion. While the tribe was peaceful and peaceful, they naturally lost the opportunity to get close to the center. Now, they are not as good as the five surnames in terms of background, and are not as good as Wei Peixue in terms of closeness and alienation. In fact, they have become second-rate families. If the head of the Liu family is here, it may be reasonable for others to come and meet, but for themselves, haha, I am afraid that visiting is fake, and asking for guilt is real.

…………

When the sun rose and Qin Hao finally arrived late, everyone in the Liu Mansion was already hungry and put on their chests on their backs.

Chinese people have the habit of keeping guests for dinner. Whether it was a thousand years ago or a thousand years later, in order to treat Qin Hao, the distinguished guest, the people of the Liu family prepared newly killed lambs, aged wine, white fish from Taihu Lake and fragrant big cakes. However, this ancestor couldn't wait any longer. Smelling the fragrance of the delicious dishes that had already flowed from the kitchen, the Liu family felt that they were as old as the year.

Seeing Qin Hao enter the door gracefully in a white silk robe with an ivory fan in his hand, the people in the Liu Mansion were almost left with their mouths, and the master of the Liu family almost shouted out a word to serve.

Qin Hao was polite and extraordinary. Although his status was already quite high, he bent down respectfully and said: "Qin Hao had seen several elders of the Liu family. I am really sorry for the elders. When he passed by the Huaian Palace, he was pulled by the little prince to eat a sheep. He was so full of food. Please forgive me."

Everyone in the Liu Mansion: “…………”

Well, people are all over, so it seems that they won’t have lunch.

It was Mr. Liu who was the first to recover from his inability to eat. He quickly greeted Qin Hao in the house enthusiastically, and then said politely: "Master Qin Gang, this is Liu Lie, a dog son. The dog son is ignorant. If there is any offense to the noble family, please forgive me. I am not very careful."

Qin Hao had long discovered a young man standing in the corner with aggrieved as if he was suffering from anger in the living room. His face was blue and purple, and he looked like he was beaten. Although he could still see traces of makeup when he looked at it carefully, it at least showed the sincere attitude of the Liu family. Although Qin Hao was similar to him, the levels of the two were already very different. No one in the world even treated Qin Hao as a junior boy. He could not hold on to him, and he was not as good as his knowledge regardless of his identity.

When I opened the gift box given by Mr. Liu, I found that it was a Western Regions gem almost as big as a baby's fist. This thing is still valuable even if it reopens the Silk Road. It can be seen that the Liu family has indeed invested a lot.

Qin Hao smiled and put away the gem, without any politeness. He never mentioned Su Lie's harassment of Xiao Cui, but just seemed to be randomly haha.

After a long time, Qin Hao said: "Uncle Liu, your family has always been a saying of Xiangyang. My nephew is going to Yangzhou today. Some people say that Yangzhou is a prosperous place that is not as good as Luoyang, but my nephew is not familiar with the place. I wonder if our Liu family has some of its own business in Yangzhou. If you arrive at the place and ask the dock to reopen, can you let your mansion give me some advice?"

Although he was kind, he had a vague intention of pulling them into the group. The good news from the sky almost made Lao Liu's heart skip for several shots. Who doesn't know that Qin Hao is the God of Wealth, and he can't keep up with the soup after eating meat and drinking soup. At least the world's ranks must hold on to his thighs when doing business.

But I couldn't help but feel a little suspicious. It is true that the power of the Jiangnan tyrants is greater than that of Guanzhong. However, with Qin Hao's reputation and the ability of the Qing Gang, and the full support of the court, he didn't have to rely on the local tyrants to avoid being too big in the future. Why do I have to share their meat with them? Even if I want to share their meat, they are far from the largest one in Jiangnan. There will be no fraud here...

Well, such a big piece of pie in the sky hit the head, even if there was a moment of suspicion in my heart, Comrade Lao Liu finally ate it.
Chapter completed!
