Chapter 53: The Fist is Not Afraid of the Advantageous Eye
After selling out the tickets, inside Hui Feng Building, Jiang Feng, Zhao Xiucai, Zhang Liang and a few others were surrounding the silver and silver notes, the shop assistants standing around them all had their mouths agape. Now that they have renovated the wine house, purchased sea cucumbers, paid wages, and covered the daily expenses of the wine house, in total they only spent 1,300 or 1,400 taels of silver. They never expected to make it back in one go today.
It only cost a few gold-plated posts, but the people around looked at Jiang Feng's eyes as if they were looking at the God of Wealth, their eyes filled with astonishment, admiration and worship.
Jiang Feng knew in his heart that such perfection was the result of his own unintentional actions, but being stared at by so many people's admiring gazes could be said to be a very pleasant thing. He couldn't help but want to put on a modest expression, and smiled as he said:
"Don't worship me too much, I'm just an ordinary person!"
The whole house was stunned, and then burst into laughter. Jiang Feng took out 300 taels from his money box and handed it to Zhao Xiucan, saying:
"Lao Zhao, you, Zhang Liang and Wang Zhuanggui, Bao Chui'er each get 40 taels, Tie Dan gets 20 taels. The rest will be divided among the Ma brothers outside. These days have been tough for everyone, and it's going to get even busier from now on. Let's all work harder!"
Hearing that there was a large sum of silver to be distributed, everyone's face turned red with excitement. When Jiang Feng spoke, they all responded thunderously, and the atmosphere reached its climax.
It's only been a few days since I came to Liu Xueshi's mansion, but it has already changed greatly. The originally quiet streets outside are now quite lively, and the gate is crowded with sedan chairs and horse-drawn carriages, even though it's still early in the morning.
Several people who looked like housekeepers or butlers were there, smiling and accompanying him respectfully. At this time, Liu's butler looked different from a few days ago, appearing spirited and energetic, with his air also picked up. Jiang Feng walked to the front door and didn't think of greeting them, directly walking inside.
Before he could step inside, a loud shout came from behind him, Liu Guan's voice ringing out clear:
"Hey you, stop right there! What is this place that you're trespassing?"
Jiang Feng was taken aback, furrowed his brow and turned around, looking at Liu Guan who was pointing at him, saying coldly:
"Old Liu, a few days ago when I came here, there wasn't such a big commotion, was there!"
Liu Guan's family has been rising with the tide in recent days, and now his master is a red man in front of Zhang University. It is said that the palace also appreciates him very much, and many people come to pull relationships and smile at him. Those who can't see the busy Liu Xue are also polite when they meet Liu Guan.
Now that his status has risen, he naturally doesn't bother with the small Jin Yiwei Xiao Xiao Jiang Feng anymore. Liu Guan didn't expect the other party to not give him face at all, and suddenly became angry, pointing at Jiang Feng and scolding:
"Get out of here, you ill-mannered brat!"
Two young men rushed out of the door, looking like they should be the new servants in Liu Xueshi's household. In the Ming dynasty, it was often the case that when an official was promoted or someone passed the imperial examination, many people would voluntarily sell themselves into slavery to secure a livelihood for their descendants.
Liu Xueshi's recent performance has been on the rise, and naturally, someone is trying to curry favor with him. However, Jiang Feng is confused and only finds it strange that things have changed so much in just a few days. Just as two young people rushed over, he didn't flinch, his face still wearing a cold smile, even before they reached his side.
Jiang Feng suddenly took a step forward, his two hands shot out at the same time, and his speed was much faster than his opponent's. In an instant, he grabbed the necks of the two young men, the throat being the weakest part of the human body, once squeezed, the whole body would be powerless, let alone these two young people in front of him who didn't know martial arts.
One grab at the back, and in an instant, the two people had lost their balance and fell to the ground in front of the door. The onlookers gathered in front of the door were all similar-looking individuals who were slaves of official families and would not have any good feelings towards the Embroidered Uniform Guard. Seeing Liu Guan's intention to drive them away, they thought to themselves that Liu Xueshi was now at the height of his power, and offending him would be troublesome for the Embroidered Uniform Guard.
Everyone was there laughing and waiting to see Jiang Feng make a fool of himself, but unexpectedly, before even one round had passed, the two people from the Liu household were already lying on the ground. A group of people stood there in stunned silence, while Liu's steward took a step back, his hand trembling as he pointed at Jiang Feng and said:
"Don't come over, is there still king's law......"
Jiang Feng ignored the old man in front of him, spat a mouthful of saliva on the ground, and coldly shouted:
"Selfish dog eyes..."
He walked directly into the gate and arrived at the door, where he saw a middle-aged man drinking tea comfortably inside. It was obviously the new doorman. Jiang Feng's anger flared up, and he strode into the room, grabbed the middle-aged man and scolded:
"Old man's place, what are you doing here making a scene? Get out!"
With a flick of his sleeve, Jiang Feng directly threw the middle-aged man who was in a state of panic out. The people coming and going inside and outside the courtyard were all elegant officials and scholars with refined speech and dignified demeanor. Yet, when Jiang Feng became so ferocious, a group of people unexpectedly lost their composure, still it was Liu the housekeeper who had lived for more years.
Liu Guan's family understood the principle of adapting to changing circumstances and smiled at the people outside, saying:
"Our master has just gone out. I'll take your visiting cards first and report to him when he returns. Sorry, you've had a wasted trip today."
Everyone outside also saw Jiang Feng's ferocity just now, and they knew in their hearts that Liu Xueshi's mansion might indeed have some difficulties. They said a few polite words and dispersed. Now, Liu Shunheng can only be said to have the potential for greatness, and everyone came to express their good intentions, which is also the norm in official circles.
Liu Guan sent off the guests as if nothing had happened, then furrowed his brow and went back to take a look at Jiang Feng, who was sitting in the gatehouse with his legs crossed. Although Liu Xueshi had been promoted, this Jin Yiwei guard still didn't have any respectful attitude.
Thinking carefully, the master of the house didn't say a word, and indeed couldn't be cured. Liu, the butler, who had been feeling quite pleased with himself these past few days, gave Jiang Feng a stern look and walked outside to the gatehouse, not daring to go in. From there, he shouted in a fierce tone:
"Listen up, my family's master is of a different status now, you mustn't cause any trouble. If you disturb the ladies inside, you'll be in for it!"
Everyone's collection and recommendation to me, I will definitely code out the text that makes everyone satisfied, please rest assured.
