Chapter 563: There Are Three Unfilial Kinds
"Alas..." Seeing that he was so stubborn, Xiao Chen was quite helpless, so he had to slow down his tone, "Actually, I also understand your difficulties. Since your attitude is so firm, I can't force you...to show you something. , do you recognize it?"
As he spoke, he took out a Dragon Spirit Bead and handed it to him.
"Ah!" Duanmu Nanfeng was surprised and delighted when he saw it, "Is this the legendary Dragon Orb? Brother Xiao, where did you get it? This is a priceless and peerless treasure!"
"You're really quite knowledgeable, you really deserve to be the disciple of the most wealthy family in the south of the Yangtze River... Do you have a few hidden in your house?" Xiao Chen laughed.
"I heard from my father that I had one before, but it was stolen later, and my father got sick because of it..." Duanmu Nanfeng held the bead, loving it.
"Then I'll give you this one." Xiao Chen was very generous, "Keep it as a family heirloom for your son in the future, but I won't make any other gifts when you get married."
"Brother Xiao, don't be joking, how can I want such a precious thing! Why don't you give it to the emperor? He may have to seal you under the joy of his dragon face." That's what Duanmu Nanfeng said, but his eyes It is obvious that he loves the orb all the time.
"Is he worthy?" Xiao Chen's tone was louder than the sky, "Only my younger brother and you are worthy of this kind of orb... How much do you think this is worth?"
"Haha, brother Xiao, you are so funny. I am very happy to have your words, but I still can't take the beads. It's better to sell them. We need silver so much now... you say the value How much? I can’t say for sure, anyway, it’s priceless!” Duanmu Nanfeng said that this kind of treasure is priceless!
"I'll keep it for you, why are there so many nonsense!" Xiao Chen said, "I still have a dozen or so beads like this, and they are all kept here with you, and you sold them for me..."
Plop!
Duanmu Nanfeng was shocked to hear this and fainted directly...
yeah? What about the children of the No. 1 wealthy family in the south of the Yangtze River, just so promising? I despise you so much!
When Duanmu heard Xiao Chen tell the origin of the orb, he almost fainted again, I rely on, twenty-four dragon spirit beads? I can buy half of Jiangnan County, my brother Xiao!
But you can't sell them all at once, you have to sell them one by one, so that you can sell them at a better price.
Brother Xiao, you can leave this matter to me. Later, I will use the largest freighter to transport the money for you...
But brother Xiao, how many people know that you and sister Linger got the orb?
"Basically everyone knows about it." Xiao Chen said.
"That can't be done! It's a matter of life and death, but it must not be leaked out. As the saying goes, a man is not guilty, but a woman is guilty! If people find out that we have such a treasure, there will be countless troubles in the future!" Duanmu Nanfeng narrowed his eyes. eyes.
"What do you want to do, kid? Do you mean you want to kill all the brothers!" Xiao Chen said.
"They should all have been killed, but there are too many people..." Duanmu Nanqiao really wanted to kill.
"Aren't you talking nonsense, no matter how valuable this orb is, it's not as valuable as the life of a brother of mine! Didn't you see how cruel and merciless you are?" Xiao Chen directly vetoed it.
"Didn't I just say it casually, of course it's better not to kill people...Brother Xiao, listen to me, let's do this, this, this, this..." However, Duanmu Nanfeng has already figured out a plan.
"You kid is really a ghost." Xiao Chen thinks the method is good and can be adopted.
Duanmu Nanfeng hosted a grand feast for Xiao Chen, and invited Wu Hongchang and other Jiangnan county officials.
The banquet lasted until late at night before they broke up. As the host, Duanmu Nanfeng naturally wanted to accompany him in place. After the banquet was over, he also passed out drunk.
Xiao Chen lived in Duanmu's house, he also drank a lot of wine, but he was not drunk, after seeing Wu Hongchang and other guests away for Duanmu, he ordered someone to find the chief housekeeper of Duanmu's house for four years.
Feng Nian is about fifty years old, he is a big fat man, three times bigger than Shangguan Qiji.
He is an old man of the Duanmu family. He has been with Duanmu Lin since he was a teenager, and he also watched Duanmu Nanfeng and Duanmu Nanqiao grow up. The two sisters did not regard him as a housekeeper, but Treating each other with the courtesy of uncle and nephew is considered a proper confidant.
He is also the only person in the Duanmu family who knows Xiao Chen's true identity.
"Master Xiao, what are your orders?" Feng Niannian was extremely cautious, no matter whether there was anyone or no one, he always called Xiao Chen an adult.
"Uncle Nian, shouldn't you lose weight too?" Xiao Chen asked him to sit down, "I see that you are so tired from walking, you have to weigh three hundred catties, right?"
"How can it be so heavy? I just weighed it, and it's only 293 catties." Feng Nian grinned while wiping his sweat.
"I can't stop watching?" Shangguan Qiji laughed and said, "It's probably because your scale is broken."
"Brother Shangguan, don't make such jokes. As a businessman, we can forbid everything, but the scale must be accurate!" Feng Nian laughed.
He has a bright and cheerful personality, and he has a very serious social bullying disorder. He just met Shangguan Qiji, and he can talk and laugh with him without any exception.
"Hey, it's fine for others to say this. Who in your family of merchants believes you when you say that? If it weren't for you stealing and cheating, how could you have earned such a big fortune? As the saying goes, no business without profiteering. It is you!" Shangguan Qiji obviously has a serious hatred of the rich, because he is still very poor.
"My little brother's words are not right. Stealing, adultery, and cheating can only deceive people for a while, how can they deceive people forever? But all the people who make a fortune are doing business with conscience, otherwise they would have collapsed long ago! This traitor who is not a traitor is not a treacherous traitor, but a sharp-edged traitor, that was when we sold grain in the past..."
"Come on, don't I know this allusion yet? Do you need to teach me? Let's talk about business. Hurry up. I'm exhausted after being bumpy and exhausted on the sea. I finally want to sleep peacefully with my feet on the ground. ! But Xiao Chen is troublesome, you say you have to do it tomorrow!" Shangguan Qiji complained.
"Yes, yes, then let's get down to business." Xiao Chen had a very good attitude towards Shangguan Qiji because of his needs.
"What are you two doing?" Feng Nian felt that both of them looked strange...
"Uncle Nian, there are three types of unfilial piety, which one is the greatest?" Xiao Chen directly got to the point.
"No offspring is great." Feng Nian sighed, his smile gradually congealed.
As a loyal servant of the Duanmu family, he naturally hoped that the only male in the family, Duanmu Nanfeng, would get married as soon as possible and give birth to a son and two daughters to carry on the family line of the Duanmu family.
But this child Nanfeng is not close to women!
On the contrary, I like men...
There are several theater troupes in the family, but there is not a single girl, all of them are handsome Xiaodan, who hang out with them all day long, for no apparent reason!
This year's Lantern Festival also convened more than a hundred opera troupes from Jiangnan County, and held a Hundred Flowers Festival. An oiran with both talent and beauty was selected, named Fangguan, who loved him so much, and took him home and took it into the house. ...
This is a joke in Jiangnan County, what a shame!
