Daming Wuhou

Chapter 079

In the next few days, the shopkeeper felt that life was worse than death. For a person who loves money like his life, the money he finally earned seems to be another handsome income, but there are always inexplicable people coming forward Come to him and tell him that the things he collected were illegal, or you met those people who pawned but regretted it...

In short, all kinds of things made the shopkeeper miserable.

Only then did the shopkeeper realize that Lu Changting was not joking with him at all, but was really competing with him on Feng Shui knowledge.The shopkeeper almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

Didn’t I just show you a Feng Shui array?You, mother, are really too stingy!

But if time goes back, the shopkeeper still dare not show the Feng Shui formation to Lu Changting.

At this time, the shopkeeper still regretted a little. Originally, the person came to the shop to provide him with a way to solve Jibaoshan, but later saw that Lu Changting was not very capable, and instead made his shop business better, so the shopkeeper immediately put it down. Wary, thinking that Lu Changting is not their opponent at all, so he completely forgot the man's advice, and did not put on a feng shui array again.

After all, it costs money, and this shopkeeper is very painful.

Is it too late to regret now?

Just as the shopkeeper was thinking, he saw people from the yamen coming to the door.

Soon, the shopkeeper of the pawnshop was taken to the yamen for maliciously conspiring to steal other people's property.Everyone watched him being shackled away, and couldn't help showing a mocking smile: "A few days ago, King Yan came to his shop, and he thought he was capable. Now, look at him, how can he be capable?" "You guys Why was he arrested? Killed someone?" "Hey, it's not unusual for him to kill people, how did he treat his buddy all day long, tsk tsk..."

All kinds of voices filled the shopkeeper's ears.

The shopkeeper was so ashamed and angry that he wished he could eat Lu Changting raw!But at this time, Lu Changting was sitting leisurely in King Yan's mansion, eating, accompanied by the majestic King Yan.

Lu Changting and the boy talked about the third son: "Although he may just quit his job in the shop and go home, you still send someone to take a look." Lu Changting can't just throw away people when they are used up. , To ensure the basic safety of others, this is what it should be.

The boy nodded, and immediately sent someone to look for it.

Lu Changting touched his chest, couldn't help but turned to Zhu Di and said, "I'm always worried."

Zhu Di patted him on the shoulder, and said in three simple words: "What are you afraid of?"

Although the tone is flat, it does make people feel a lot more at ease.

In fact, with Zhu Di behind him, there is really nothing to be afraid of, but sometimes, the behavior of some small people is difficult for big people to control.

The boy went out for a while, then came back and told Lu Changting.

"The third son didn't go home. The neighbors near his house haven't seen him go home for several days."

Lu Changting couldn't help frowning.

Where else can I go if I don't go home?Then there is only one possibility.The third son disappeared.

Lu Changting's face turned cold, and he said, "Can you find out his whereabouts?"

The boy looked at Zhu Di, seeing that Zhu Di was silent and acquiesced, the boy nodded, and this time he answered with more confidence: "Yes!"

Lu Changting's heart was suffocating right now, he forced a smile and said, "That's going to be hard on you."

The boy hurriedly said, "It's not hard work, it's not hard work," and a smirk appeared on his face unconsciously.

Zhu Di swung him back, and as soon as he turned his head, he caught a glimpse of the coldness and hatred on Lu Changting's face.Zhu Di knew that it was extremely hateful for the pawnshop shopkeeper to steal people's wealth, but if a clerk disappeared, it would be lawless.This behavior has already touched the bottom line of Lu Changting's heart.

"Since you want to cheat, then you might as well cheat him more thoroughly." Lu Changting pursed his lips and said in an extremely unhappy manner.

Zhu Di quietly waited for him to continue talking.

Lu Changting turned his head and asked Zhu Di, "Can fourth brother lend me some people?"

Zhu Di said, "Naturally."

Lu Changting smiled faintly: "I asked Ji Baoshan to make some trinkets, and then I asked these people to carry them to the pawnshop to pawn, and the pawnshop shopkeeper must accept them." To let the feng shui objects enter other people's shops quietly, for others It may be difficult for a shop, but it is not difficult for a pawn shop.Because you are pawning something, is there any reason for him not to accept it?It's really too easy to stuff feng shui objects into it.

Surprise flashed in Zhu Di's eyes. Although he was a little amazed at Lu Changting's flexible mind, he had to remind Lu Changting at this time: "After these days, does the shopkeeper still dare to accept things?"

"Why don't you dare? He is a person who is obsessed with desire. If wealth is brought to him, how many people can resist it? What's more, he lost so much money in the past, and now he can't wait to sell it immediately. It's good to earn the money back." He could still grasp the mind of the shopkeeper.

Zhu Di nodded: "Then I will arrange a few people to drive you."

Lu Changting stood up: "Then I have to draw a picture first."

Zhu Di reached out and pressed him down directly: "Just ask someone to fetch a pen and paper."

The servants indeed presented the pens and paper very quickly, and Lu Changting drew a picture on it, and immediately ordered one to be given to Ji Baoshan, while the other was left to the housekeeper.

What Lu Changting wants to do this time is a mirror.

Mirrors belong to yin and are prone to attract evil spirits, so people often say that mirrors should not be placed facing people.At the same time, having too many mirrors will reduce wealth.At this time, the Ming Dynasty did not have such a mirror. If it was placed in front of the shopkeeper, would he be willing to throw it away?Naturally he was reluctant, not only reluctant, but he would put it in the pawn shop, find people to come and see, make a name for himself, sell it at a high price, or offer it to dignitaries.But before he proceeds to the next stage, as long as he dares to display it in the shop, then something will happen.

Zhu Di was not very curious about the mirror, instead he asked what Lu Changting gave Ji Baoshan.

"Let him make a box out of flint, and put warm jade in the box."

"What's the use of this?"

"It's all about fire. Huo conquers gold. It's a strange thing that his shop can still make money. There is no money for strangers, only hell money, which is enough for him to earn." Lu Changting said lightly.

Now Lu Changting doesn't intend to break the feng shui formation of the pawn shop at all, he just goes directly to the shopkeeper, which is more convenient.

Zhu Di patted Lu Changting on the head, "Changting's ability is getting better and better, and the fourth brother will point at you in the future."

Lu Changting smiled, but he didn't take these words to heart.

Where does Zhu Di need him to help?

----

Ancient Chinese glass has existed since the Southern and Northern Dynasties, and it was called Poli at that time, but Chinese glass technology has never been as good as that of the West. The glass made at this time is almost called Liuli, because they are mostly colorful and colorful. .How can such a thing be used as a mirror?

But it doesn't matter, at least where the glass-making technology is, and one dynasty is better than the other.Especially since the Song Dynasty, glass has even been integrated into people's lives.Now Lu Changting only asks them to make a transparent glass...

After such intensive experiments, transparent glass was made.

When the butler brought the first piece of transparent glass to Lu Changting, he showed shame and said, "The glaze they made is really ugly." It doesn't even have a color, isn't that ugly?

Lu Changting: "..." Westerners made mercury mirrors first, while China lagged far behind. Is it because everyone has different tastes?Their clear glass is so ugly that they don't want to do it right?

"That's it, just make more."

The butler nodded, but his heart was really puzzled by Lu Changting, what exactly was he doing with this thing?Could it be that Prince Yan's Mansion is going to sell colored glaze?

After the mirror and the flint box were made, the flint box didn't attract much attention. After all, it was just a box. What kind of box have you never seen?What really surprised everyone in the palace was that a piece of glass that was so ugly that it exploded could be made into a mirror.

The butler turned the mirror over and saw his face clearly reflected on it, almost shaking his hands in fright and throwing the mirror away.

"My lord, this, this, this..." The housekeeper almost couldn't speak.

It stands to reason that they have seen many rare treasures, but they have never seen such a thing.Holding the mirror in his hand, the housekeeper asked tremblingly, "Master, are we going to sell mirrors?"

Lu Changting snatched the mirror from the housekeeper, and handed it to the people beside him. These people were sent by Zhu Di to drive him around.One of them took the mirror in a daze, and couldn't help but say, "Take something like this... What a pity..."

Hearing the words, the butler changed his tone immediately: "Pawn this thing? How can it be done? It's good to keep such a precious thing in the palace!" If it is sold, it will definitely be sold high price.Thinking about it, the housekeeper couldn't help but look at Zhu Di, and waited for Zhu Di to speak.

Zhu Di took a look at the mirror, and exclaimed in his mouth: "The long pavilion is really amazing."

Lu Changting shook his head: "It's not surprising, these craftsmen will figure it out by themselves in the future."

Although Zhu Di was full of surprise, he didn't intend to destroy or hinder Lu Changting's plan. This was something Lu Changting made, so naturally it was up to Lu Changting to decide.

Zhu Di returned the mirror to the man and said, "Go."

The man glanced at Zhu Di hesitantly, seeing that Zhu Di still had no intention of changing his mind, he couldn't help but gritted his teeth and said, "Let's go." After the master had spoken, they naturally followed the orders.Only the butler showed a pity look on the side, but he didn't say any extra words. Of course, the butler obeyed his master with all his strength.

At this time, Lu Changting could also understand why these people were so surprised. After all, Zheng He hadn't sailed to the West at this time, so naturally he didn't bring back the mercury mirror.They have never seen such a thing before, and now that they see it, they are naturally surprised.

He tilted his body, leaned into Zhu Di's ear and said, "After the shopkeeper is taken care of, these mirrors can be sent for business."

Zhu Di smiled and said, "I see." The smile on Zhu Di's face deepened unconsciously.

He knew that Lu Changting was always thinking of him.

Naturally, the housekeeper couldn't hear the whispers between the two, but seeing the smile on the master's face, he smiled too.

The rest adorned themselves, and went out with their flint and mirror.

The shopkeeper of the pawn shop has just been released. He suffered a lot in the county government office, so he took money to bail himself out. That's all. The other party insisted that he ordered the servants to steal, and the shopkeeper justified it. I don't know, only then did I really realize what it's like to meet an unreasonable person.

When he finally returned to the shop, he found someone waiting outside the door for a pawn.

The shopkeeper got angry and cursed angrily: "It's not open today! Get out of here!"

And those people all showed anger, but they didn't dare to leave.

Who told Beiping that there is only one pawnshop in this shop?

The shopkeeper had enjoyed enough of the anger on their faces, and now he felt extremely comfortable.So what if these people get angry again?You don't have to look at his face!The shopkeeper finally regained the feeling of showing off his power in the past.

Only then did he change his mind and said: "Come in." He has lost a lot of money in the past few days, and now he has to get all the money back quickly.

The shopkeeper even took a look at the alley, and Ji Baoshan put away the wooden box.The shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief. Lu Changting probably felt that he had won, so he didn't have any intention of continuing to play with Feng Shui.

Back in the pawn shop, when the other party took out the pawned items, the shopkeeper was shocked, and kept asking where he came from.

……

Everything was as Lu Changting expected, the shopkeeper still couldn't resist the temptation, accepted these things, and proudly placed them in the shop.

Night, coming soon.

Ji Baoshan once again laid out Mingqian.

The shopkeeper is completely unaware of all this.

……

As the night gradually deepened, the shopkeeper frequently felt out of breath in his sleep. He opened his eyes suddenly and walked out of the room. Silver brilliance flowed on the surface of the outside mirror.

It's so beautiful... The shopkeeper stared at the mirror and let out a sound of admiration.

When he caught a glimpse of his own face in the mirror, the shopkeeper suddenly felt a gust of wind blowing behind him, he shivered unconsciously, and hurried back into the room.

In the days that followed, the pawn shop became even more difficult.

Overnight, the business suddenly plummeted again. Even if it was the money earned, there were always problems, and it was difficult to keep it. That was all, the shopkeeper even started to have nightmares every day.

Only then did he realize that Lu Changting had no intention of letting him go, he was punishing him to death!

Just as he was thinking, Lu Changting came in from outside the pawn shop.

The shopkeeper gritted his teeth: "It's my skills that are inferior to others..."

"No, it's because you haven't exerted your strength yet." Lu Changting looked him up to his feet with probing eyes, "Or is it not you who made that Feng Shui array?"

A trace of panic flashed across the shopkeeper's face, and he said with a serious face: "Since Mr. Lu insists on fighting with me to the end...then I can only boldly offend Mr. Lu."

"I'll wait for you." Hearing the shopkeeper say this, Lu Changting was very pleased, he knew that the shopkeeper was going to ask the Feng Shui master behind him for help.

I'm afraid he won't ask for help!

Lu Changting turned around and strode out.

Power is really a good thing, just because he is a member of Prince Yan's Mansion, the shopkeeper can only be suppressed and beaten by him now, and he dare not do anything to him at all.

……

After returning to the palace, Lu Changting immediately told people to follow up with the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper was indeed in a hurry. After Lu Changting left, the shopkeeper couldn't even wait, so he closed the shop and went to the shop. The tavern again.

People from Yanwang's mansion followed in, but saw that the shopkeeper didn't stay inside for long, instead he left the tavern immediately, called a carriage, and headed out of the city.

The people in Yanwang's mansion looked at each other, and sent someone back to Yanwang's mansion to report, while the rest of the people followed the shopkeeper again, and followed them to a mountain.

This Lu Changting also received the news.

"Outside the city?" Lu Changting thought to himself that these two people have so many tricks, they dare not meet people like this, and they don't know what kind of tricks the Feng Shui master is playing.

Lu Changting and Zhu Di looked at each other, then blinked.

Zhu Di immediately understood: "Want to leave the city?"

Lu Changting nodded.

"Prepare the carriage." Zhu Di simply threw out three words, which can be said to have fully met Lu Changting's request.

The efficiency of King Yan's Mansion is naturally high, and they got into the carriage quickly.

The carriage was heading out of the city. When leaving the city, the city guards didn't dare to stop it. After all, the carriage belonged to Prince Yan's Mansion!

The carriage galloped out of the city gate.

Lu Changting was unsteady and bumped into Zhu Di directly.

Zhu Di grabbed him and said, "Are you okay?" Although Zhu Di can still pat Lu Changting and touch his head recently, he seldom has such overly intimate actions anymore.

Zhu Di unconsciously lowered his gaze.

But Lu Changting slapped the table at this time: "Fourth brother, do you still remember that servant Tu Gen of the Lin family?"

"Remember, why?"

"Maybe Lin's Fengshui was arranged by him himself, but I don't think he looks like a person who ventilates water. Could it be...could it be that this Fengshui master is actually behind Lin's Fengshui?"

"It's possible." Zhu Di said absently.

However, the more Lu Changting thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong, he couldn't help but slapped the table again: "Fourth Brother, can you send someone to Tu Gen to ask about this right now?"

Zhu Di smiled, raised his hand and knocked on the wall of the carriage.

The carriage stopped immediately.

Zhu Di said to the people outside: "Send someone back to the city to go to the prison of the county yamen, find the Lin family's servant Tu Gen who was arrested, and interrogate whether there is someone behind the Feng Shui that he set up. If so, you must ask who is this person who."

The people outside responded, and then Lu Changting heard a sound of horseshoes going away in the opposite direction from them.

Lu Changting murmured: "I was also limited by the fixed thinking. I only thought that the murderers of the Lin family had been caught, but I never thought about it. Where did Tu Gen have the ability to arrange the Lin family in such a way?"

Lu Changting's eyes suddenly brightened: "I must find that Feng Shui master!"

Such a person cannot be allowed to mess with Feng Shui.

Zhu Di stroked his hair: "Yes."

The carriage quickly went up the mountain.

It is said to be a mountain, but it is actually a larger hillside with a house that has been abandoned for a long time.

When Zhu Di and others arrived,

The shopkeeper was being pressed to the ground by the people of King Yan's Mansion, and he shouted angrily, "What are you doing? Let me go! Come, help!"

Lu Changting stepped forward, and the servant immediately turned his head to meet him, and said awkwardly: "Let that man run away, and when we arrive, he seems to be aware of it."

"However, the third son was found." The boy said.
