Chapter three hundred and thirteenth Liu family keepsake
Shopkeeper Fan was followed by seven or eight servants who hurried out of the grain house. The young master of his family came to Chengdu Mansion. If he was neglectful, he would definitely leave a bad impression. Over the years, he had climbed to the position of shopkeeper of the grain house.
It's not easy. If you were knocked down from the mortal world because of just one word, you would probably cry.
But what puzzled Shopkeeper Fan was that there was no handsome and cynical young man outside the gate at all. There were only a few people in weird clothes, both young and old, men and women.
Shopkeeper Fan has been operating in Chengdu Mansion for many years and can naturally tell at a glance that all the people in front of him are descendants of the Miao people. The only girl with a big belly is still dressed like a child of Jianghu, which is not at all like the clothes of people from Jiangnan.
Shopkeeper Fan had to ignore Qinglian and the others and looked around the gate. Apart from these people, there was no one else around. The eldest young master's jade pendant could only be brought by these people.
The younger brother who had previously taken the jade pendant from Qinglian immediately came out and pointed at Qinglian and said: "Shopkeeper, this is the girl who asked me to give the jade pendant to you. She said it was a token of the Liu family in Jiangnan. I would rather believe that she has it."
I can't believe it, and I don't dare to hesitate. Could it be that the jade pendant is fake?"
Shopkeeper Fan shook his head at the waiter and walked solemnly in front of Qinglian. He had long been familiar with the art of observing words and expressions. He saw that Qinglian was the person in charge of these Miao people. He held the jade pendant in his hand with both hands.
Holding fists: "This girl, Fan Hai, the branch manager of Chengdu Fu Commercial Bank, is polite. I wonder where this girl who is the keepsake of the eldest young master of the Liu family comes from? What is the matter?"
Qinglian gently blessed her body: "The little girl Qinglian has met shopkeeper Fan. This jade pendant was given to me by an old friend of the little girl. If anything happens, she can go to Jiangnan Liujia Trading Company for help. The little girl is now encountering some difficulties.
I would like to ask shopkeeper Fan for help."
"Old friend?" Fan Hai murmured and looked at Qinglian. She was a woman with outstanding appearance and graceful appearance. Fan Hai hesitated for a moment and looked at Qinglian with a round belly. She was obviously pregnant with Liujia for many days. Could it be that she was pregnant with Liujia for many days?
The eldest young master's confidante is not a good one. What's going on with the eldest young master in my family? Although these semicolon shopkeepers are located in a remote location, they still hear about it every year when they go to Jiangnan to return accounts. It can be said that they are romantic in nature.
But if the confidante had followed the character of his master, Liu Zhi'an, who expected his grandson to become a demon, the Liu family should take good care of their children when they were born. How could he be allowed to linger in a place like Chengdu?
Could it be that I don’t know when the eldest young master came to Chengdu Mansion? Then he left after one night?
According to Young Master Liu's romantic character, it is not impossible, but why would such a precious token of identity be left behind? As the eldest son of Liu, he would not be unaware of the importance of this token. However, the Liu family firm can mobilize ten silver coins with the token.
Ten thousand taels.
One hundred thousand taels of silver may be a drop in the bucket for the Liu family, but for some ordinary people, they may spend their entire lives earning less than one hundred thousand taels of silver.
The thing that Fan Hai didn't understand the most was why Qinglian came to his grain store with a token. The one who needed help was the Liu family business, where they could raise one hundred thousand taels of silver.
Fan Hai couldn't understand the key point and shook his head helplessly: "Miss Qinglian and everyone, please come and sit inside first. I have something to say. Since you came to the Liu Family Firm with the eldest young master's token, you are a distinguished guest of the Liu Family Firm.
Some of you, please come in."
Qinglian nodded gratefully: "Thank you so much, Shopkeeper Fan."
Wusang and the others also nodded cautiously. The Han people have always looked down on foreigners. When the Miao people came to the city to sell their fur goods, the Han people always looked at them with indifference. Even the best fur goods could only be sold based on their looks.
Even the old man Wu Sang couldn't let go of the imposing Fan Hai.
Fan Hai staggered his body and said, "Miss Qinglian, please, please come from inside."
Before finding out Qinglian's identity, Fan Hai thought to himself that it would be better to remain respectful. If Qinglian is really one of the future mistresses, and the child in her belly is the incense of the Liu family, it would be embarrassing to neglect her.
Even though Liu Zhian will not blame himself, the Liu family's property will eventually be handed over to Young Master Liu one day. The best way to deal with others is to lead them with humility and courtesy.
Qinglian and others sat down in the living room, and immediately a servant brought them good tea, which made these people a little flattered.
Fan Hai looked at the people sitting down and nodded to Qinglian: "Miss Qinglian, I still have some accounts that I haven't finished yet. Can you please allow Miss Qinglian to wait for a moment? I'll make arrangements and I'll come right away."
"Thank you, Shopkeeper Fan. My little lady is not busy, so it doesn't hurt to wait a little longer."
"Thank you Miss Qinglian for your understanding. You guys have tea first, I will come later." After saying this, Fan Hai walked into the back hall with the jade pendant.
After Fan Hai left, Wu Sang looked at Qing Lian, who was sitting next to her: "Girl Lian, what on earth is this jade pendant? Why does shopkeeper Fan respect you so much?"
"Yes, sister Qinglian, when my eldest brother came to buy rice, the waiters at the rice shop in front of me didn't even look at my eldest brother, but today, the shopkeeper with such a high status respectfully invited my eldest brother to come in and drink tea. Isn't this right?
It's a jade pendant, it looks like an official seal to me." Wuge also looked at Qinglian in surprise.
As for the other old man and Wufu, they also looked at Qinglian curiously, their eyes full of desire for knowledge.
Only Qinglian's mother seemed to understand something. The young master that shopkeeper Fan said was most likely the man who ruined Qinglian's innocence. She sighed silently, and Qinglian's mother couldn't say anything.
Qinglian smiled bitterly: "Uncle, that jade pendant is a token of a big shot. Lian'er will explain it to you later."
Qinglian took a sip of tea. She couldn't remember how long it had been since she had the baby in her belly.
Shopkeeper Fan quickly walked to a locked door, took out the key, opened it, and then ordered several servants: "No one is allowed to come in without my order."
"Yes, from the shopkeeper."
After Shopkeeper Fan walked into the room, he closed the door, took out a key from a secret compartment under the table, then took out a small box from a cabinet and placed it on the table. He opened it with the key and took out a beautiful book.
put it on the table.
Then he opened the booklet of Chapter 3 and read it. The pattern on the booklet was exactly like the jade pendant Qinglian brought, and there were dozens of small regular scripts next to it recording something in detail.
Every time he read the contents of a record, Shopkeeper Fan would pick up the jade pendant and look through it. After a moment, Fan Hai closed the book, locked it again, and rubbed his forehead: "It's exactly the same as the contents of the record. Except for Liu Ye's brother, this kind of carving
It took ten thousand silk hands to make it, and it turns out to be the eldest young master's token. It seems that this woman has an inextricable relationship with the eldest master, otherwise she would not have given the token to her."
But I can't ask what this girl's identity is. It would be unsightly to know some secrets.
