Chapter 206: When drinking with a close friend, a thousand cups are too little
The performances of Fahua Temple and Yuanyang Sect had just ended, and the band began to play and play, and the festive melody echoed over Baixiang Town.
The protagonist of the wedding, Chu Qianqiu, put on a red robe. Before the auspicious time arrived, he was still receiving guests and fulfilling their requests.
If it were other sons of hundreds of households, or even sons of ten thousand households, they would not be so busy on the wedding day.
Because family social relations are often borne by the fathers.
However, the premature death of Chu's father and Chu's mother allowed Chu Qianqiu to officially inherit the position of Baihu and become the head of the Chu family. This also meant that on the wedding day, he had to take on two jobs, one as the head of the family, and the other
One is the groom's official.
Although Xiao Changfeng, the Huang family's housekeeper and the invited master of ceremonies were helping, the tedious work was still quite astonishing.
In this grand wedding, many distinguished guests sent valuable gifts, which also meant requests.
How to respond to these requests is what Chu Qianqiu has to do, and no one else can replace him.
Even Yang Wanhu's son, Chu Qianqiu's personal guard Yang Guang, who rushed back to attend the wedding, could not help him deal with these matters.
After all, the personal connections and relationships belong to Chu Qianqiu personally and to the Chu family.
The two personal guards, Yang Guang and Wang Yuan, could only do some chores to reduce the burden on Chu Qianqiu as much as possible.
"Xiaoyang, who's next?" Chu Qianqiu sat in the living room, took a sip of tea, sent away the happy guests, and continued to ask.
"Zhuang Jichen is a skinny old man who runs a martial arts studio in the town. He comes to thank you for everything he says. He is not a big shot."
"Sir, do you want to receive me?" Yang Guang asked quickly, which made Wang Yuan on the side grit his teeth, as if his things had been taken away.
Yang Guang is the most outstanding son of Yang Qianhu, a true innate master. In terms of status, he is no worse than himself, and in terms of strength, he is even more powerful than himself.
Such a rising star of the Shenwei Army was respectful and allowed to be driven around in front of Chu Qianqiu, which made Wang Yuan, who originally thought that this personal guard was tasteless, began to feel better and became more serious about his work.
"It's Old Man Zhuang, let him in." Chu Qianqiu ignored Wang Yuan's little thoughts. Recently, he prefers to let Yang Guang do things. It is not without reason. It is best for both of them to get involved to benefit himself.
Control your subordinates.
"Yes, sir." Yang Guang worked quickly. After hearing the order, he galloped all the way and called Zhuang Jichen to come in.
After the Chu family's courtyard was renovated, it had a three-in and three-out layout, with different needs.
At today's wedding banquets, the residents of the town enjoy flowing banquets in restaurants, or even on the streets, followed by officers and business partners on the first floor of the Chu family compound, and on the second floor there are hundreds and thousands of households.
level officials, as well as Chu Qianqiu's classmates, and the third level is Abbot Juemi, a person with whom Cao Zizhen has core relationships.
Originally, the old man Zhuang could only eat in the restaurant, but now he was able to let Chu Qianqiu meet him. He was so excited that he was almost speechless.
"Namo Amitabha!"
"Master Chu, I wish you eternal health and may you and your wife have a son soon."
Old Man Zhuang was grateful for a reason. He came to Baixiang Town to build a training studio, but couldn't attract customers and almost lost all his wealth. It was Chu Qianqiu who helped him.
Not only did Chu Qianqiu spend his money to buy the Tianzi room in the training studio for his subordinates to use, he also recommended his training studio to the Wang family's legitimate sons and disciples of the Yuanyang sect.
Now the business of his training studio is booming. He has signed a cooperation agreement with Baixiang Pavilion and obtained medicinal materials that are much cheaper than those on the market. As long as he continues, he can become a new rich man. The training studio that lost money has turned into a money tree. How?
Can you not make him burst into tears of gratitude?
Chu Qianqiu once went to the training studio and calculated how much money he had, but now helping him turn around was just a matter of a few words.
Old Man Zhuang deeply understood the changes that had been brought to the practice studio. Before he could say a few words, he wanted to kowtow and thank him, but Chu Qianqiu held him in his arms and said very kindly:
"You're welcome, Manager Zhuang. It's an honor for you to come to my wedding."
"You built a training studio in Baixiang Town, which filled the lack of facilities in the town and made a great contribution."
"The Point Guard Is Here"
"If there is anything you need my help with, please feel free to ask."
Obviously Chu Qianqiu is younger and Old Man Zhuang is older, but their status and feelings are completely opposite.
"Master Chu, you know that the business of the practice studio is booming now, and sometimes it is even overcrowded."
"so……"
Old Man Zhuang said somewhat unspeakably.
"You want to build another training studio, right?"
"This can bring you more wealth-"
Old Man Zhuang said nervously.
"I'll make up for the missing silver." Chu Qianqiu smiled warmly, causing old man Zhuang to say incoherently:
"When the new training studio is built, I can earn fifty taels of silver a day, and I will definitely pay you back soon!"
“You can make 50 taels a day!”
Old Man Zhuang left excitedly. Chu Qianqiu saw off Old Man Zhuang. Soon Wang Yuan immediately stepped forward and said before Yang Guang:
"Sir, the next one is Gu Rong, the son of Gu Qianhu. Gu Qianhu is now the commander-in-chief of the Li camp. They seem to want to negotiate."
"Then let him in."
Chu Qianqiu nodded. He didn't mind a little competition among his subordinates. What's more, Yang Guang and Gu Rong were both Liu Dutong's personal guards, so they needed to avoid suspicion in this regard.
Soon, Gu Rong, the son of Gu Qianhu, walked over quickly holding a heavy brocade box. As soon as he saw Chu Qianqiu, he said very politely:
"Brother's marriage to Miss Huang is a perfect match. It is indeed a great joy for our Shenwei Army, and it should be celebrated by the whole world."
"A few congratulatory gifts, please accept them, brother."
Gu Rong first handed the brocade box to Yang Guang, and before Chu Qianqiu could say anything, he said apologetically:
"My father has gotten old recently and has done something bad in Hutu. I hope that my brother, Sir, will have a lot of money and don't argue with my father."
"The position in the Li camp is just to take care of the Chu family for a few days."
"Now that my brother is getting married and has become an adult, he should return the property to its original owner."
Li Renying was originally managed by Chu Baihu, but after Chu's father died unexpectedly, it was replaced by Gu Qianhu. He really wanted to swallow up this inheritance and leave it to his son Gu Rong.
Originally, according to time, Gu Qianhu could spend a long time cultivating it. This Li camp is not the property of the Chu family. Now that Chu's father is dead, his own soldiers can be taken away, but the soldiers in the military camp cannot be named Chu. Gu Qianhu
Qianhu did this without regard for human kindness, but it is not a bad thing at all.
But Chu Qianqiu moved too fast, and only a short time passed before he became an innate master and Liu Dutong's adopted son.
Now that this wedding has shown amazing strength, it seems very uneconomical for Gu Qianhu to swallow this piece of fat.
So Gu Rong came to apologize on behalf of his father.
"Brother Gu, the ownership of this Li camp should have been subject to the arrangements of Lord Dutong."
"There is no reason to pay back or not to pay back. We are all brothers in the army."
"Xiao Wang, bring me some wine."
"Okay!" Wang Yuan immediately took out the prepared wine and served it to the two of them.
Chu Qianqiu raised his wine glass and smiled at Gu Rong:
"As the saying goes, a thousand cups are too little to drink with a close friend."
"Brother Gu, please have a few more drinks."
"It's natural, why do you need to give orders?" Gu Rong also laughed and drank the wine, and the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.
A conflict hidden in the undercurrent disappeared.
