The entertainment tycoon of the Republic of China

"Do you have anything left by your family?" When Bai Luoqiu asked this sentence, his expression and tone did not change at all, as if he was just asking an insignificant question.

"what?"

Xie Yan thought of the box that had been destroyed by herself, and her heart sank, her expression remained calm.

"You don't have to tell me." However, Bai Luoqiu just lightly pressed his shoulder, "I just want to tell you, whether you have it or not, no matter who asks you, you will always say no, understand?"

"..."

Xie Yan smiled softly, "No, Master."

"Okay." Bai Luoqiu nodded, as expected, he didn't ask any more questions, and changed the subject, "You have been in the Dechun class for a year because you have lost your soul, and you seldom interact with others, so you have been silent all the time. But what do you remember?"

"I want to remember too, but unfortunately I don't." Xie Yan shook his head, "It's just that I have experienced many things in Hankou these days, and I feel that I have gradually recovered some knowledge and thinking. If Master knows my past, why not tell me about it?"

Bai Luoqiu took a deep look at Xie Yan, but did not agree.

"Li Fu has asked someone to arrange the cooking. After the place is cleaned up, let's talk about it after lunch."

After Bai Luoqiu finished speaking, he wrapped himself in that pure black cloak and walked towards the house, followed by Xie Yan.

Looking at the thin back of the other party, Xie Yan thought divergently, he originally thought that Bai Luoqiu's appearance and personality should be matched with a snow-white color, like a wild crane in the mountains, but he did not expect the other party to control pure black so naturally, like a dark The sharp blade hidden in the heart, the moment you see it shimmering, will also be your death.

This is a person who is proud and unyielding to the extreme.

The mansion that Fang Qingming bought for Bai Luoqiu has been well packed in advance. Li Fu only needs to send someone to arrange the things they brought from the capital into categories. Bai Luoqiu didn't bring much when he came to Hankou this time. , In less than an hour, the mansion was all cleaned up.

The odd jobs in the Dechun class have been taken to Wicker Alley for resettlement, the cook brought from the capital cooked the meal, Bai Luoqiu thanked Yan, Li Fu, and Li Quan sat down together.

"You two children must have suffered a lot these days. This is what you like to eat on weekdays. Eat more." Li Fu greeted with a smile.

"Father, let me tell you, we have really experienced a lot these days!" Li Quan had a lot of things to say in his stomach, and he didn't even rush to eat.

"Speak slowly, didn't you see that the class leader hasn't spoken yet?" Li Fu looked at his son who was finally reunited, and his temper was much better than before.

"Team leader?" Li Quan finally remembered that Bai Luoqiu was still on the table after hearing the words, scratching his head and looking at him embarrassingly.

"Go ahead, don't be in a hurry to eat." Bai Luoqiu nodded, although his expression was cold, he was surprisingly easy to talk to.

When Li Quan heard that he had received an amnesty, he immediately poured out all the things they had encountered these days.

From the time when they fled to Hankou on the boat docked by the river, when they went to the patrol mansion for help and were kicked out, and when Xie Yan was seriously ill and took him to find a family's woodshed, Li Quan spoke very Quickly, he explained everything clearly in a few moments.

Hearing that his son had gone through so many things these days, Li Fu felt a little distressed, but there was a hint of relief in his eyes.

"The aunt of that family was not only greedy for our money, but also found someone to drive us out. Fortunately, Ayan woke up and said a few words to get the money back." Li Quan changed his tone and continued, "After coming out, Ayan wanted to Take me to Furong Street to find a job. By the way, Ayan can speak foreign language, and she speaks it very well. Unfortunately, I didn't find a job, and I met two foreigners who made things difficult for us. We cleared the siege."

"Second Young Master Wen?" Bai Luoqiu, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.

"It's the second young master of the ship king Wen's family! Ah Yan is now working as a teacher for Miss Wen San at the Wen family. They have a good relationship. A Yan even sits in the Wen family's car casually, and the fox fur cloak he wears is also given by the Wen family!"

Bai Luoqiu glanced at Xie Yan and frowned slightly.

"Wen Heng and I hit it off right away, we hit it off very well, thanks to Madam Wen for not giving up on Miss Wen San's husband, the cloak was not given to me by Madam Wen, and the car was given to me when she was free, not as exaggerated as Li Quan said. "Xie Yan always felt that Bai Luoqiu might have misunderstood something, so he could only explain.

"En." Bai Luoqiu nodded without commenting.

"..." Li Quan didn't know if he said something wrong, he looked left and right, momentarily at a loss.

"Although we haven't met the Wen family in the capital, we have heard of the name of the Yangtze River Ship King. The Wen family is a family of benevolence and righteousness. It would be great if you have a good relationship with them. Ayan can be Miss Wen's family. The teacher is also capable, maybe the theater troupe will rely on you in the future!" Li Fu has been by Bai Luoqiu's side for so many years, and he can see that Bai Luoqiu is not really angry, but just born with this temper, so he smiled and beat There was a circle.

"Li Quan, go ahead."

"Okay." Li Quan nodded, and looked at Bai Luoqiu cautiously, "Er Shao Wen helped us out, and even found us a job as a waiter in a teahouse, with food and accommodation included, and we settled down."

"Food and lodging included? Then I have time to thank the restaurant for taking care of you." Li Fu said.

"This..." Li Quan hesitated when he thought about Mr. Li, the owner of the teahouse.

"what happened?"

"It's the owner of the teahouse..." Li Quan scratched his head, he himself was not clear about these things, and didn't know what to say.

"Let me tell." Xie Yan said suddenly, looking at Bai Luoqiu, "Master, do you have any enemies in Hankou?"

"What do you mean?"

"I have some speculations, and I'm afraid you won't be happy if I say it."

"I haven't been unhappy for a long time, you just say it's okay." Bai Luoqiu didn't change his face.

"Okay." Xie Yan nodded, "I want to ask, do you know... Li Tianwei?"

"Clap!"

The sound of chopsticks falling to the ground was very clear in the empty restaurant. Xie Yan turned her head to look, but it was not Bai Luoqiu who made the sound, but the shocked Li Fu.

As for Bai Luoqiu himself, he just took a sip of the freshly brewed tea in his hands lightly, and even had the leisure to blow the foam on the surface of the tea, "I know, what's wrong?"

"Li Tianwei is the owner of the teahouse where we took shelter. He heard that we were members of the Dechun Class, and he seemed to miss us very much. That's why I wanted to ask." Xie Yan didn't finish speaking.

"Just nostalgia?" However, Bai Luoqiu sneered when he heard the words, "What is there to miss?"

"Master?"

"You don't need to test anything, and you don't need to be afraid that I will be angry and uncomfortable. I can tell you straightforwardly that Li Tianwei and I have returned to ashes now, and all grievances and grievances have been wiped out." Bai Luoqiu put down his teacup, "If he didn't do anything , You don’t have to go around in circles with me like this now, just tell me, what’s the matter, for the sake of your family, I’m definitely on your side.”

This was the first time that Bai Luoqiu took the initiative to mention the original owner's family background to Xie Yan. When he said this, his face was expressionless, but his tone was extremely firm and convincing.

Xie Yan has always been very accurate in judging people, he knew that people like Bai Luoqiu disdain to lie about this kind of thing, so he stopped probing after hearing the words, and told all the things that could be said.

After hearing Xie Yan finish talking about Xie Ji Mi Xing, Bai Luoqiu frowned unconsciously.

"The Li family is a big and respectable family in Hankou. It has been in the coal business for several generations since its ancestors. The family relationship is intricate, and the people in several houses are plotting and fighting with each other. Under normal circumstances, they would not plan to plot a rice business."

Bai Luoqiu didn't say why he knew so much about the Li family in Hankou as a native of the capital. Although Xie Yan was puzzled, he didn't ask any further questions.

"Master thinks that Mrs. Xie's words are wrong, and Mr. Li was wronged?" Xie Yan was not sure about Bai Luoqiu's intentions.

"No, I just said that the Li family wouldn't plan to set up a rice shop, and I didn't say that Li Tianwei couldn't." Bai Luoqiu seemed to remember something, "What can't he do?"

"That……?"

"I'm just reminding you that if you want to check these things, you may need to list Li Tianwei separately instead of checking the accounts between Li's family and Xie Ji. Most of the things he did have not been handled by the family." Bai Luoqiu He sneered, "Of course, the Li family is not a good thing, so be careful."

"..."

"Let's not talk about this anymore. Li Tianwei will be Li Tianwei. What happened so many years ago, who cares about him!" Li Fu quickly smoothed things over, "Isn't the Wen family also in charge of this matter now? We don't have to think too much about it."

After Li Fu finished speaking, Xie Yan understood that the current atmosphere was not a good time to continue asking questions, so she temporarily put the conversation down and enjoyed the food on the table with the other three.

Bai Luoqiu's stomach has always been bad, and she always brings her own old cook with her wherever she goes. This old cook used to be the cook of a wealthy family, and that family joined the Dechun class after the family's decline, and cooked for Bai Luoqiu. During the meal in [-], he accurately grasped the taste of this famous actor in the capital.

Stewed rotten rock sugar elbow, salty and sweet fried tofu with mochi, sour and springy casserole white meat... Although there is not much time and ingredients are limited, the experienced old cook still cooks a table with the same taste as Hankou dishes. Different Beijing dishes come out.

After starting to enjoy the delicious food, everyone at the table felt much better with the naked eye. Xie Yan observed while eating, and was inexplicably relieved to see that Bai Luoqiu did not show a particularly obvious preference for elbows.

After all, in his memory, in the era of the Republic of China in the world he lived in, there was a Peking opera star who was also famous in China, and his love for elbows was so crazy that he became chubby in the end—although professional skills Still superb, not lost with weight gain.

Xie Yan was thinking wildly in her mind, and she didn't stop eating. After more than half an hour, the sumptuous open-stove lunch was finally finished.

"Ayan, come with me to the study." Bai Luoqiu didn't make Xie Yan wait, and got up directly and said.

"Okay." Xie Yan pursed her lips and stood up, perhaps this moment was what he had been waiting for these days.

Xie Yan had a premonition that after today's conversation, he was truly on the road to solve the reason why he came to this world.

"That's right." Bai Luoqiu paused, then suddenly remembered something, "How much do you earn a month in the teahouse?"

"It's five oceans." Li Quan quickly replied.

"Is there anything else I want to pick up from the teahouse?" Bai Luoqiu asked again.

"No more." Li Quan shook his head. He had a premonition when he went out today, and cleaned up the entire courtyard. Now there are only some worthless daily necessities left in it.

"Okay." Bai Luoqiu nodded and looked at Li Fu.

"Ah Fu, go get my name card, and take another 1000 yuan to go to Li's house, and say that the people in the Dechun class have been taken care of by Li Tianwei these days. If you pay back the money, this account will be completely settled, and no one will use it as an issue in the future."

"Aqiu?" Li Fu was taken aback.

"how?"

"...I thought you didn't want to have anything to do with the Li family anymore."

"I sing in Hankou, and it's only a matter of time before my reputation spreads. Instead of waiting for dirty things to come to my door, it's better to speak clearly first." Bai Luoqiu smiled, "By the way, you still have to go to Li's house. For silver, you must make a big splash and hand over the silver ticket to the Li family."

"..." Li Fu was silent for a moment, and finally shook his head, "Okay, if you want to do it."

"I've always wanted to." Bai Luoqiu lowered his eyes, couldn't see his expression clearly, and didn't know what he was thinking of, "Ah Fu, I've never been a good person who repays evil with kindness."
