That night, Zheng Zhipeng had a very pleasant chat with the Chief Envoy. The Chief Envoy liked him now. The singer who had just been redeemed today diligently served the two of them and drank in the new courtyard until the end of the day. .

"Brother Zheng, it's so late that I met you. It's so late that you come to my house often. If there's anything you can do for me, just ask."

"In that case, thank you sir."

"What do you call me, sir? I call you big brother."

"yes, Sir."

"Hahahaha, dear brother, I have something else I need to ask you for."

"Brother, what you said is wrong. What's going on in your own family shouldn't be treated like a word of begging."

"Hahahaha, that's it. My wife is a young lady from an official family. She has always been domineering. I am too lazy to get along with him. Sometimes I can't help but be a bit domineering. But my mother likes him very much. If I let her know about this today , I am afraid that my family will be restless, so I..."

"Brother, I understand, this house belongs to my sister-in-law, and she is my friend. Naturally, I have to arrange some scientific personnel to guard it to ensure that irrelevant people can't get in. What needs does my sister-in-law have for daily necessities in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation? , naturally it should be taken care of by me."

"Good brother! Good brother!"

As he said this, this guy kept patting him on the shoulder with his fat and fat palms. Zheng Zhipeng suppressed the disgust in his heart and smiled and sent him away. However, this guy saw a pair of jade Ruyi in the room that was good, and he took it with him. He took it home. Zheng Zhipeng was dumbfounded. Although he had heard that the chief envoy was born as a poor scholar and relied on his father-in-law's family to get where he is today. He liked to take advantage of small things, but he didn't want to be greedy to this extent. This pattern is simply the same as that of later generations. The township chiefs are almost there.

"No wonder Daming Pills, a dignified second-grade official and the governor of a province, are like this."

After sighing, Zheng Zhipeng shook his head, splashed cold water on his face, ignored the woman's obviously seductive eyes, and went home.

There was a gentle breeze along the way, and it was comfortable to sober up while walking. I looked up at the brilliant stars in the sky, listened to the sound of singing girls selling sales in my ears from time to time, and thought about the difficulty of the wine seller I saw today. He was useless and incompetent, and he couldn't help but start to worry about the fate of Ming Dynasty.

The Ming Dynasty will definitely perish, but I don’t know where the Zheng family will go after the Ming Dynasty is gone.

Thinking about something, he unknowingly walked to the door of his house. Suddenly, a sudden figure jumped out from the shadows in the corner. Zheng Zhipeng was startled. Several guards also pulled out their knives nervously. If they hadn't come Without saying anything, the man just knelt down and probably was about to be hacked to death by a random knife.

After seeing clearly, Zheng Zhipeng recognized that the person who came was the liquor salesman from before.

"You... are looking for me? How long have you been waiting? Even if you can't enter the courtyard, you could just wait at the concierge, but won't my concierge let you in?"

Zheng Zhipeng was a little angry when he said this. After all, he is learning from Du Yuesheng in everything he does now. Boss Du, no matter who comes to the door, even if he doesn't know him at all, he can still sit in the concierge. , drink a cup of hot water. Not only did he repeatedly explain this, but he also deliberately expanded the area of ​​​​the concierge by more than three times. Did he turn a deaf ear to his own words?

But the young man said: "No, no, no, the fourth master has already helped me twice, how can I dare to trouble the fourth master again? I didn't dare to enter your house. I have been waiting for you outside for two hours."

Zheng Zhipeng said in surprise: "But do you need help with anything? You get up first and talk. I actually don't like others to kneel to me."

Hearing this, the young man stood up and said, "I don't dare bother Fourth Master anymore. I am grateful for Fourth Master's kindness and thought that I would not be able to repay it. I went home and told my sister about it. My sister specially asked me to drink with him." Send it, please accept it anyway."

Only then did Zheng Zhipeng realize that the young man was holding a jar of wine in his arms.

"This……"

Zheng Zhipeng was a little confused.

"I know that the fourth master is actually not used to my family's turbid wine, but this wine is different. This is my sister's daughter's red wine. It has been 23 years. My sister can't get married anyway. Apart from this, there is nothing else in the house. There is really nothing I can get, so I brought this wine to thank Fourth Master for saving this little man’s life.”

"Since you are your sister's daughter, how can I drink it? Take it back quickly. I have accepted it, so there is no need for wine."

The young man suddenly said loudly: "Does Fourth Master look down on villains?"

Zheng Zhipeng laughed when he heard this, touched his head and said: "Okay, kid, since you said so, I will accept it. After all, it is your whole heart, but it cannot be accepted in vain. These are 20 taels." silver……"

"Fourth Master must not do it. Although I am a businessman, I also know what it means to repay a favor. This wine is to thank you for your life-saving grace. Where can I take your money again? Besides, where can such things be sold? The truth?"

Zheng Zhipeng couldn't laugh or cry in his heart.

After taking the wine, Zheng Zhipeng patted him on the shoulder and said, "Okay, let's not mention the money. Your name is Yang Xu, right? From now on, you will be my friend, Zheng Zhipeng."

"Thank you fourth master!"

After that, Yang Xu jumped up and left happily.

The guard behind him smiled and said: "The fourth master has taken a liking to this person? Could it be that he wants to arrange for him to help the chief envoy's outer chamber?"

Zheng Zhipeng smiled when he heard this and said, "What do you think of this person?"

"He is a smart boy."

"He is really smart, but he is a little naughty, and after all, he is still young, and the things he does are a bit deliberate and not smooth enough. Let's take another look. I will give you a task. Help me find out about this young man's background. "

"Yes."
