Chapter 949
"How many times do I have to tell you?! Tell you to be obedient and study hard, but you've lost all my face!!!" When the envoy sent by Liu Yi arrived at the gate of Liu's residence, he listened When the angry roar came from the mansion, the envoy was stunned for a moment, and then he knocked on the door. Immediately, a servant stepped forward to open the door. The envoy revealed his identity, and the servant went to report again, and then invited the envoy into the mansion.

As soon as he reached the front yard, he saw the rumored great Luoyang merchant, Liu Chan.

Liu Chan's figure is quite similar to Liu Yi's, and he is also very handsome, but he is smaller than Liu Yi, so he doesn't look so scary. At this moment, he is sitting on the ground, pointing at a young child in front of him and cursing him. In terms of appearance, he was not very similar to Liu Chan, but he was very similar to his Yeye, Liu Sikong. The envoy just waited and watched for a moment, then Liu Chan hurriedly got up and walked to his side with a smile.

"My lord, Liu Chan, pay my respects to Your Excellency!"

"Don't dare, don't dare, meet Liu Jun at Xiazhongshutai Youcheng Qiaozhou." The visitor bowed seriously to Liu Chan, "Oh? It turned out that it was Qiao Gong in person. I heard that I read less classics and intensively studied the Six Classics. I know a lot about astronomy, and I have admired you for a long time, and it is my great fortune to meet you today!!" Liu Chan said in surprise, and his attitude towards Qiao Zhou became more cordial, and he took his hand, and then Lead him to the study.

When passing by, he still gave the toddler in the front yard a cold look, and shouted angrily, "Continue to stand here and reflect!"

The two walked into the study, Liu Chan seemed very kind to him, and even asked about some rumors about him, which surprised Qiao Zhou. He thought that this person was just being polite to him, but he didn't expect that he was genuine. Qiao Zhou's understanding of himself is very good, which made Qiao Zhou feel good about Liu Chan's senses. Liu Chan didn't ask him why he came here, and chatted with him about his classic knowledge cheerfully.

Qiao Zhou never imagined that this rumored silly boy from Sikong's family had such a deep understanding of the classics, the world's perception is wrong!Unknowingly, the two chatted for more than an hour, enjoying themselves happily, calling them brothers and sisters. After chatting for a long time, Qiao Zhou just remembered the purpose of his coming. Looking at Liu Chan in front of him, he hesitated for a moment, and then said: "It's not true. To tell you the truth, I came here this time because I was sent by the order of Zhongshu."

"Oh? I'd like to hear about it."

"I heard that it is His Majesty who intends to hold a grand ceremony in Luo County. People from all walks of life are invited to come to Luo County for a grand competition, so that everyone in the world can feel the prosperity of today. However, there is not much money in the treasury. Zhongshu Ling then suggested that he hoped that several big merchants from the big man could take over the ceremony. The big merchants could arrange food and beverages during the ceremony without causing too much loss. I came here this time for this purpose thing."

When Qiao Zhou finished speaking, Liu Chan immediately clapped his hands and shouted: "Okay, great, this is a good thing, the strength of the big man is unprecedented, the ceremony is naturally to be messed up, don't worry, Mr. Qiao, I will never let Qiao It’s embarrassing, I’ll visit Zhongshuling later and ask about the relevant matters.” Qiao Yiyi was stunned. Originally, Liu Yi wanted him to communicate with Liu Chan. However, although Liu Chan is a merchant, his family background is still quite powerful.

Not to mention his father, but his wife's family, Sun Quan, Sun Ce, which one is easy to provoke?

It is said that Sun Ce may also succeed Zhang Liao and become the new commander-in-chief of the Southern Army.

Under such circumstances, Qiao Zhou was still unwilling to offend the merchant in front of him too much, so he didn't say anything more. The two chatted, and gradually began to talk about history. As a great historian, he once specialized in studying history. As a great historian, his biggest hobby is to dance and explain to others historical anecdotes that they have never heard before, and Qiao Zhou is the same.

Liu Chan listened carefully to his words, and Qiao Zhou became more and more enthusiastic.

After sitting like this for a long time, Qiao Zhou was just about to say goodbye and leave. As soon as the two of them walked out of the door, a trace of anger flashed across Liu Chan's face. The front yard was empty. Obviously, the little guy he had just taught had already fled. , Qiao Zhou asked with a smile: "The young boy just now is Liu Jun's son?"

"Yeah, he is called Liu Chen, and he is my most incompetent child!", Liu Chan gritted his teeth and said, "His two elder brothers are only one or two years behind him, but he is different. The two elder brothers are always bullied and cried by him, they are also messing around in the school, either to bully their classmates, or to play truant, and all day long they want to be a ranger, I can't discipline this kid!!"

Liu Chan felt a hatred in his heart. He even felt that if his father was still there, seeing him being so angry with his own child, he would probably laugh and call out the reincarnation of heaven. How could he have given birth to such a bad child?Liu Chan really couldn't figure it out, Qiao Zhou heard it, and just said: "Playing is a child's nature, Liu Jun doesn't have to be like this, when he grows up, he will naturally understand."

The two chatted for a long time before Liu Chan sent Qiao Zhou out of the house. Turning around, he went to ask the servants and learned that the concubine had already returned to his house. Liu Chan didn't say much, shook his head and went back to the backyard. His wife, Mrs. Sun, was in the courtyard taking care of the exotic flowers that Liu Chan bought for her from the Western Regions. When she saw Liu Chan walking in, she didn't ask any more questions and continued to be busy with her own affairs. Then Liu Chan asked suddenly: "Sun Yi Are you in Luo County recently?"

"He's been there all the time, have you forgotten? He's serving as a sacrificial wine in the Military Academy...he's always been there."

"Oh", Liu Chan nodded, and said just now: "You can invite him here for me."

"What do you want him to do?"

"It's not Chen'er! He is becoming more and more disobedient, and I am reluctant to beat him. He is becoming more and more unscrupulous. Isn't he always afraid of his uncle? Let his uncle come and discipline him. Let him."

When Mrs. Sun heard this, she was a little displeased. She stood up and said, "How can my elder brother take care of our child? If he is disobedient, why don't you just give him a good beating?"

"I", Liu Chan raised his head, snorted coldly, and said nothing more, "Forget it, leave him alone, I'm going to Zhongshutai and come back later!", Liu Chan gave an order, turned and left In the mansion, a servant set up the carriage, and Liu Chan hurriedly rushed towards the Zhongshutai. He originally thought that merchants were the happiest and freest profession, but it turned out that he was wrong.

As his family business became bigger and bigger, more and more people plotted against his family property. Fortunately, he allowed the embroidered clothes envoys to place people in Xuxian Building in the past, which indeed played a protective role, but even In this way, he has become more and more cautious in his actions. No matter who he faces, he must be polite and respectful. This is not much better than becoming an official. Even after earning so much money, Liu Chan still It is necessary to deliberately control the size of the mansion and even the number of followers.

He can't live too extravagantly, otherwise, he will be easily targeted, just like this time.

After learning that the ceremony was the emperor's idea, Liu Chan did not object, because he knew that objecting would be useless, so it would be better to agree to it rather than asking for trouble. With the approval of the emperor, in this way, he can live a more unrestrained life in the future, Liu Chan thought in his heart, and he also knew that Qiao Zhou came to discuss important matters with him, but he still chose to meet Liu Chan. Yi.

Because this is a rare opportunity. Liu Yi and him are relatives. In the past, due to the lack of contact between the two, Liu Chan has not been able to go to see him. This time, the opportunity has come. Reconnecting the relationship with this relative is also a good deal. Now Liu Chan has become a real merchant. In his eyes, everything has become a deal. To pay, you must Gain something.

When he came to Liu Yi's mansion, the servants were also a little puzzled. They had never met Liu Chan, but because Liu Chan claimed to be Liu Yi's relatives, they still went to sue him. Liu Yi didn't put on airs. Send someone to greet him. When Liu Chan walked into the study, Liu Yi was reading a book. Liu Chan hurriedly called him elder brother. Liu Yi also respected him, without the kind of disdain for merchants. After the two met, they exchanged pleasantries for a long time .

Only then did Liu Chan talk about his purpose, and he said: "I am also the clan of His Majesty, and I am also the brother of my brother. Since my brother has any orders, I will definitely do my best. Just give me your orders. This ceremony, the details I need to prepare those things, and I will do everything!" Seeing Liu Chan's positive attitude, Liu Yi was also overjoyed. He thought Liu Chan was here to complain, and he had already thought about the words of refusal in his heart, but now it seems , Liu Chan is still very sensible.

The pair of brothers chatted enthusiastically about the grand ceremony. Liu Chan put on a serious face and listened to Liu Yi's request.

On the other side, Qiao Zhou also walked to his mansion. He was still a little tired after running around all day, especially Liu Yi was not in good health, and many things fell on him, making him miserable. When he got off the carriage and was about to enter the mansion, he saw a person standing at the door of his mansion with a child, Qiao Zhou looked at them seriously, but the man hurried over.

"Mr. Qiao. Haven't seen you for a long time?"

"You are. Changping?? Is that you? Hahaha, long time no see, how did you come here?! Come, enter the mansion with me!" Qiao Zhou suddenly recognized this person as a neighbor from his hometown, He hurriedly led him into the mansion. Seeing that Qiao Zhou still recognized him, the man breathed a sigh of relief and walked into the mansion. The man also seemed a little restrained, but the child beside him was not afraid at all. Looking around curiously.

"Is this your child? Haha, what number is it?"

"This is the third child, named Shou"

"Shou? Chen Shou? It seems that you hope that he can live a long life and inherit your clothes!"
