Troubled World Merchant

Duan Jintang got up a bit late the next day. He is a master and lives in the tea garden of the Duan family, and life is easy, because he is the only male among the five older sisters, so most of the Duan family's property is left to the Duan family. He, the [-]-acre tea garden, as long as Duan Jintang guards the tea garden in this life, he won't starve to death.

Although Duan Jintang doesn't have to worry about starving to death, he still depends on his own property. His current property is a few shops attached to the tea garden. The Duan family used to be a big family. If you dig out the family tree, you can see what Qing Dynasty remains The tea in the palace is served by their Duan family. It is an imperial tea merchant. Duan Jintang sometimes sneers meanly, what about the Qing Dynasty old man? The Qing Dynasty old man's surname is Aixinjueluo, and their family name is Duan.

Bring tea to the palace?Isn't all good tea delivered to the palace first?Maybe there was glory in the past, but he didn't see half of it, and he didn't enjoy the benefits at all. The Qing Dynasty has been in decline for many years. Yes, the tea garden of the Duan family declined in his father's generation. Three concubines gave birth to five daughters, and he was the last one. The properties given to Duan Jintang included three tea gardens, five tea shops, three tea houses, and several silk shops were distributed to his sister.

Because of his stinginess and shrewdness, these few shops are still able to manage. Although he is a young master, he has five older sisters and three aunts, one of whom is his mother. My mother is also a mother. Whenever my mother met him, she would pour bitter water on her. She would not ask him for private money, but she would tell him bad things about the big house. There is such a mother, so Duan Jintang's behavior is not generous enough, like an aunt, stingy Fickle, good at calculating, extremely nervous about his own property, he must hold every mile in his hands, from how much the tea house produces every year, whether the tenants cut corners, down to every kind of tea in the shop. He has to ask about the price, spring tea is expensive, white tip is more, the old tea is re-copied and placed in the teahouse to fill the new tea, specially sold to those who don't know the goods, the price is still doubled...

The old butler of the Duan family is still left behind by Master Duan. He is very loyal. He will listen to his instructions every morning and will never interrupt his words when standing next to him. Although his master is gone, the young master is even more outstanding. It seems that he has an abacus in his mouth, and he doesn’t drop any of it. This kind of ability is innate. When he was young, the first thing he caught was the abacus, so he was doomed to love money like his life in this life. The old housekeeper smiled slightly. Listen to him settle accounts.

Duan Jintang scolded him from beginning to end and found that there was nothing to bother him. He was silent for a while and asked, "Master nephew, last night...how is the business of his Mominglou?" After thinking about it, he changed it again Duan Jintang was very depressed, Lu Shaojun was willing to live in Duan's house before, but he has lived in this teahouse since he doesn't know when, he must have a sweetheart!Duan Jintang realized more and more that he was just like that jealous woman, it was embarrassing!

The old housekeeper didn't know what he was thinking, so the old god opened the account book and said solemnly: "Master, today's autumn tea has enough rainfall and a good yield. The Maofeng that Lao He sent a few days ago is very good, and many guests like it. The building's business is not bad." Duan Jintang also knew it was good, he had already gone to the teahouse to look for him several times on the grounds of randomly checking the business situation, and he blocked him with the second miss of the Feng family yesterday!

Duan Jintang couldn't sit still when he thought of this matter, Huo De stood up: "I want to go out and have a look." The old housekeeper brought him the coat and hat, Duan Jintang thought about it and changed into a thin woolen coat, This autumn is very suitable for him to wear. He looks very good-looking, and he looks even better in this outfit. Duan Jintang tidied up inside and out before going out.

The driver of the Duan family asked him, "Master, where are we going?" Duan Jintang also had no purpose, he wanted to find Lu Shaojun, but the two of them had torn their faces last night, and he couldn't help it. One has ulterior motives, and it can't be turned around, not to mention that Lu Shaojun was lured by him, and he despises him all the time, just like the last time he went to bed and went to the execution platform.

Duan Jintang was troubled, he looked at the people all over the street and couldn't find anyone who could replace Lu Shaojun, firstly, he was not as handsome as him, and secondly, he no longer had the courage, the spirit of desperately liking him back then, At that time, he fell in love with Lu Shaojun for the first time, and liked him full of satisfaction, which was very crazy. Now that I think about it, I feel a little ashamed of myself at that time. How can he let him go if he becomes him? If he goes to marry a wife and have children, will he be alone?There are no doors!

Seeing his gloomy face, the driver of the car didn't dare to say anything. He just dragged him around. The street was relatively prosperous. After the fall of the Qing government, various factions rose up. On one side, the local power is monopolized, and there are constant melees, but as long as they can live, the common people don't care about it, they live as usual, everyone is busy with their own, all kinds of shops are flourishing, the driver Xiaocheng drives slowly, his The driving skills are impeccable, so it will be like this, and he has driven Duan Jintang for many years, and he knows him deeply. If the master does not open his mouth, he will never say anything, so when Duan Jintang came to his senses, the two had already turned to another street. Now, seeing that it was not far from his property, Moming Tower, Duan Jintang became ruthless, and came here, why didn't he go in, this is his property!

When the Mo Ming House came, the master immediately lifted his spirits. We all know that he is picky, so everyone can't wait to have eyes on the top of their heads, and examine themselves from beginning to end, so as not to let him find out their faults.

Looking at his teahouse from a distance, Duan Jintang felt better. Mominglou is still doing well under the management of Lu Shaojun. At least this street is outstanding. The words Mominglou are shining on the sandalwood plaque, dark golden The light is low-key, but you can still see it, because there are three lanterns hanging on both sides, red and red, tacky and dazzling, anyway, this is the feeling of time-honored brands, just like the old man of the Qing Dynasty, who wants to maintain His original status, but he couldn't keep himself in this troubled world, so he could only do his best to make himself look vulgar.

Lu Shaojun didn't know what he learned from that family. There were two doormen in suits in front of the door. They were very conspicuous. Fortunately, their faces were neat and their faces were full of smiles. Seeing Duan Jintang's car coming, he immediately went to help him He opened the car door and respectfully invited him in. Duan Jintang glanced at them subconsciously, which was meaningless. He was just like Lu Shaojun looking at a beautiful maid. Turning his head away, he can't let others know that he likes men.

Duan Jintang felt unsafe because of Lu Shaojun's dislike, and he was always thinking about finding a substitute, but he was extremely hypocritical, afraid that people would know that such a noble person likes men, so even if he looked at men, he couldn't be as big as Lu Shaojun. Square.

Because Duan Jintang came to stop his nephew every day these days, the waiters in the teahouse are very dedicated. The waiters in his teahouse are also all men. They wear vests and trousers, just like western restaurants. Enthusiasm, but it's a pity that Duan Jintang only focused on looking for Lu Shaojun, and smiled at the people who smiled at him in the building. Lu Shaojun was obviously not in the lobby on the first floor, and the manager of the Moming Building rushed up to him: "Master, you are here, didn't you come with me in advance?" I said, I'm going to pick you up."

Duan Jintang took off the top hat from his head and handed it to him: "I'm just here to take a look, where's Xiaoye?"

The manager of Mominglou is surnamed Wang, and he has served the Duan family for a long time. When he saw the old man of the Duan family, he called him master, and now he is very friendly when he sees Duan Jintang, and leads him upstairs to the office: "Manager Ye is at work. " Duan Jintang was relieved when he heard that he was going to work, as long as he didn't get along with the second lady of the Feng family.

Lu Shaojun always felt inferior to Duan Jintang in the Duan Mansion, but he was the owner of this teahouse, so he was extra relaxed. When Duan Jintang entered, he was drinking coffee comfortably, with his legs crossed, no shoes on, wearing a The white socks are not dirty when stepped on the thick carpet.Seeing Duan Jintang push the door and come in, he stood up, and suppressed the yelling in his mouth. Duan Jintang didn't know how to respect him at all, and he wouldn't knock on the door first when entering his room, since the door sign said General Manager's Office.

Lu Shaojun called uncle, Duan Jintang hummed and closed the door, Lu Shaojun watched him take off his coat, revealing the neat suit inside, turned his eyes away, Duan Jintang's appearance was completely opposite to his temperament, he looked noble It can't be described in words, the noble son raised by the Duan family of a scholarly family did everything possible, he can be put on the outside as a signboard, a simple suit outlines the body just right, and a snow-white shirt sets off a face like a begonia petal. More and more beautiful, phoenix eyes, high nose bridge, thin diamond-shaped lips, with warmth, Lu Shaojun gritted his teeth in embarrassment, his uncle is like a monster, and his ghost is lingering.

Duan Jintang glanced at him and smiled: "Have you eaten yet?" The voice was gentle and gentle, and the appearance of throwing plates and bowls last night was gone, and Lu Shaojun replied as if nothing had happened: "Have you eaten? Didn't uncle eat?" Duan Jintang shook his head: "I've eaten it too." The two of them had nothing to say. The nephew and uncle really had nothing in common. Besides, he didn't come here to ask for business.

He had nothing to say, and Lu Shaojun had nothing to say, so the two of them just sat there. Duan Jintang really wanted to reconcile with him, at least as before, when Lu Shaojun was still willing to talk to him, but after sitting like this For a long time, Lu Shaojun didn't respond, and Duan Jintang felt hot on his face, and he couldn't let go of that face to coax him. For so many years, only others have been coaxing him, and he has never been asked to beg others.
