Chapter 4424: Looking for a relative
Lin Haoming found a gold coin from Li Qiang, several coins and dozens of copper coins. The entire Tianshen Continent was relatively unified, all three types of gold, silver and copper, and they were carried by one hundred proportions. Lin Haoming calculated that a copper coin here was equivalent to about 50 cents on the earth, a silver coin was equivalent to fifty yuan, and a gold coin was equivalent to five thousand. Of course, things were different, so we can't say it absolutely, but it was almost like this. An ordinary person spent one or two gold coins a year. Of course, this is also because there are too many poor people, and for rich nobles, hundreds or thousands of gold coins are all small.
Li Qiang's brother-in-law was not a nobleman, but a businessman. In the industrial era, the status of a businessman was indeed not low. His brother-in-law had assets of about 10,000 gold coins and was considered a rich man in Heishan City.
From Li Qiang's memory, Lin Haoming knew that Li Qiang had an uncle who went to Nanlin Kingdom to hunt for gold when he was very young. His uncle looked like he was just in line with the memory of the unlucky person he encountered in the sea. I have to say that sometimes it was really fate.
The north of Heishan City is a mining area, and the north of the city is a place where workers live, so rich people generally live in the south. The most famous Honghua Road runs through here. Along the road, there are garden villas on both sides and rich people in the city. At this time, in the garden building of Zhou Lixiong, the owner of Fenghua Headdress Company in the south of the city, a middle-aged man in a dress respectfully walked to a man wearing casual clothes and drinking black tea, bent down slightly, and said respectfully: "Master, there is a young man outside who is said to be his wife's relative, and wants to see her!"
The wife mentioned by the housekeeper sat aside. She looked like a beautiful woman who was less than forty years old, but she was actually almost forty-three years old and her name was Li Fengzhu. At this time, she looked at the housekeeper with some confusion and said, "Jiazhong, what are you talking about my relative?"
"Yes, madam, he claims to be your nephew, but his image is not very good and looks a little down. By the way, I gave me this to say, "Madam, you should know you. If it weren't for his very affirmative tone, I wouldn't have come to see you!" The butler took out a pocket watch. It was broken and obviously it had been soaked in water for a long time and had rusted.
The lady quickly took it into her hand, looked it through carefully, and then shouted in surprise: "This, husband, this was what my father gave to my uncle in person. At that time, I was nine years old. I remember very clearly that the strap was broken by my brother. My brother said I had broken it, and my father beat him hard for this. When my uncle left, my father gave him the watch, which was also the most precious thing in the family at that time."
"It's your uncle's child. After your uncle went to Nanlin Road, there was no news after he came back with a letter in the first year?" Zhou Lixiong asked in surprise.
"It's true, but this is not wrong, although more than thirty years have passed." Li Fengzhu said.
Li Fengzhu's parents died more than ten years ago. They brought their daughter, son and younger brother here for a livelihood. However, life was difficult at that time, so the uncle left. Because Li Fengzhu was beautiful, she was attracted by the son of a foreman who worked for her father at that time, and then married him. The son of the foreman had some skills. In more than ten years, she established a headdress company and became a famous wealthy businessman in Heishan City. Although she was not the top one, she was definitely a success. Li Fengzhu also lived a wealthy life because of this. Unfortunately, her parents were tired in the early years and her younger brother was really ineffective, so she finally died.
"Fengzhu, I'm very tired of taking care of your brother!" Zhou Lixiong reminded reluctantly, not seeming to want to cause trouble.
"Husband, I know that my brother has made you embarrassed over the years, so I have never mentioned the matter between you and your secretary!" Li Fengzhu said.
Suddenly hearing this, Zhou Lixiong's face suddenly became a little unsightly and a little embarrassed. He knew that his wife knew about the matter between him and his secretary, and now it was probably an exchange to mention it.
Affair is not a good thing. If Li Fengzhu wants to file for divorce, she will divide her own fortune, which is something he cannot accept.
"Husband, I just want to meet you, confirm it." Li Fengzhu said.
"Okay, let that kid come in!" Zhou Lixiong said helplessly.
In just a moment, a boy who looked fifteen or sixteen years old was brought to the two of them. Looking at the boy who was wearing a dress and looked very handsome, Zhou Lixiong frowned slightly and said, "What's your name?"
"Lin Haoming!" Lin Haoming said.
"You are not your surname Li?" Zhou Lixiong asked.
"My mother's surname is Li, and my grandfather is Li Feiyang, but I have never seen her before. My grandfather passed away when my mother was thirteen years old, leaving only the pocket watch. Later, my mother married my father, and my father brought the pocket watch, but it broke later. But my mother said that this was the only certificate between my grandfather and the family. There was a letter, but it was soaked in water!" Lin Haoming said.
"Why did you come back to the God Continent?" Zhou Lixiong asked.
"We live on the Key West Island in the Nanlin Continent, where there are many pirates. In fact... in fact, my father worked for some pirates in the town. Before he married my mother, he was also a pirate, but later he made a fortune and stopped doing it. Two years ago, a hostile force rushed to the town, and nothing was left. My father had no relatives. My mother asked me to take this with me. If I survived, I would come to the North Mainland to find you. It took me more than two years to come here!" Lin Haoming said, a lot of this is the remaining memories of the unlucky ghost. Of course, this name is his own. Lin Haoming doesn't want to use the unlucky ghost's name. As for his appearance, he also deliberately used magic to look at how young he was.
"How old are you?" Li Fengzhu felt a little pity when she heard that her uncle had experienced this in the Nanlin Continent, especially Lin Haoming was very handsome.
"Fifteenth, not sixteenth, I just celebrated my birthday a few days ago." Lin Haoming said.
"Where is your grandma?" Li Fengzhu asked.
When Lin Haoming heard this, he glanced at Zhou Lixiong beside him, and then said, "My grandmother is a noble lady. I heard from my mother that she was originally the daughter of Earl of Weishan, the Great Wei Kingdom..."
