Hangzhou in May is like a beautiful picture.The beautiful scenery of the south of the Yangtze River is in full bloom in this season.But Sun Yihuan, who was in a hurry, did not slow down at all to enjoy the scenery, because he could basically guess how his family would react if he lost news at sea for so long, so as soon as he arrived at the border of Hangzhou, he quickly entered the city and ran back to Sun's mansion without stopping.It was not until he arrived at the door of the house that Sun Yihuan stopped his horse and turned over.As soon as he stood still, a housekeeper who was sweeping the floor at the door recognized him."
Less......
Less......
Shao ......
"This family has also appeared before, it is the Sun Thirteen who has "very sharp legs and feet, but a very stupid mouth".Sun Yihuan looked at Sun Shisan, who was already stammering with excitement, and knew that it was useless to talk too much to the other party, so he smiled and ordered: "Okay, don't be 'less', open the door quickly." ”"Huh!"
When Sun Thirteen got the order, he immediately threw down the broom, wiped a handful of excited tears with his sleeve, turned around and entered the house from the small door, and then opened the door of Sun's mansion from the inside.Seeing this, some people may ask, isn't it over for Sun Yihuan to open the small door with his family and go in?
Why bother?
What's this......
It's not impossible, but generally speaking, according to the rules of the time, in a large family like this, the owner of the house and guests with status had to open the door to enter the house, and the small door next to the gate was for the subordinates and "idle people".Now that Sun Yihuan has arrived at the door, he is not in a hurry for this moment, so he still follows the rules."
The young master is back—" A minute later, after Sun Thirteen helped Sun Yihuan open the door, he turned his head and shouted out the words that he had been holding back for a long time in a hoarse voice.There was a sensation in the house at this time, first the people near the front yard heard this roar, so many people looked here suspiciously, and just saw Sun Yixiang striding in.Then the shouts began to rise and fall, and the whole Sun Mansion was running to tell each other.Everyone stopped doing their work, didn't eat food, and even squatted in the toilet and ran out of it......
In short, everyone came to greet Young Master Sun.Sun Yihuan also has a clear purpose, no matter how busy others are, he has to go to his father's house first to report safety.As a result, as soon as he walked into the courtyard outside Sun Yuan, he saw that the second elder had already staggered out with the support of his subordinates."
Yo!
Dad, mother, what are you two doing here, I'm about to go into the house. ”Sun Yitong saw this scene, and his first reaction was to say the truth."
My son—" Before Sun Yuanwai could say anything, the old lady had already pounced on her crying and said to Brother Sun, "You are not dead!"
Huh-hahahaha!
”But when she saw the old lady coming up, she grabbed Sun Yihuan, mentioned "death" when she opened her mouth, and then cried and laughed, hugging while fighting, and living like a madman.However, it is also understandable that when people are faced with extreme sorrow and joy, it is possible for them to become in this state of uncontrollable emotions and behaviors.Sun Yuanwai was also very excited, but when he saw his wife's appearance, he calmed down, but his face was already full of old tears.To make a long story short, after this commotion, Sun Yihuan went into the back room with his father, and the three of them chatted about a cup of tea.By the time everyone calms down, it's almost ......
It's time to talk about something else.The old lady didn't get involved in this, so she sent someone to help her to another house, leaving Sun Yihuan and Sun Yuanwai's father and son to talk.And the two of them ordered someone to call Mr.
Xue Tuixue.This Mr.
Xue's residence is not far from Sun's mansion, and he can get there by patting the horse; When he entered the house, when he saw that Sun Yihuan was still alive, he also had mixed feelings and cried with joy.But when Sun Yihu saw him, he frowned, because at this time, Mr.
Xue's head was wrapped in cloth, as if he was injured......
What's going on here?
Then we have to talk about it again..................
Earlier, Sun Yihuan boarded the ship in Guangzhou in early March, and the letter he sent arrived in Hangzhou almost in mid-March.And wait, wait, wait......
By the end of March, no one had arrived.Supposedly, if he had taken the waterway, how could he have come back these days, could it be that he got off the boat halfway and went to play elsewhere?
Probably......
Then wait a little longer.As a result, it's April, and I haven't believed it yet.Not only is there no news of Sun Yihu's return, but there is no news of him appearing elsewhere, which is ......
It's a little worrying.So, Sun Yuanwai asked Mr.
Xue to go outside to find someone to inquire, which ship Sun Yixiang was on in Guangzhou at the beginning, and where is the ship now?
Does anyone on the ship know Sun Yihuan's whereabouts?
Back then, it wasn't as good as it is now, and with just a few phone calls or keystrokes, many things could be found out; Back then, if you want to check these, even if you use the flying pigeon to pass the book to entrust someone to do something, this back and forth plus the time for verification, it will take at least half a month.As a result, in late April, Xue Tui brought terrible news to Sun Yuanwai - the ship on which Sun Yihui was on was missing at sea.It is said to be "missing", but in fact, everyone understands that if the ship disappeared at sea at that time, it was nothing more than two situations: one was sunk in the wind and waves, and the other was robbed by pirates (pirates are not necessarily all pirates, but also from the mainland or other regions).But in either case, the chances of survival for the passengers on board are slim to none.This news is undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for Sun Yuanwai; Not to mention that Sun Yihui is now a very promising son, even if he has no talent, he is the only son for Sun Yuanwai......
Who can bear the pain of losing a child?
Not to mention the old lady, the lord who is willing to give "six thousand mothers' love", must not be depressed when he learns about this?
Originally, Sun Yuanwai didn't plan to tell his wife the truth at all, and was ready to continue dragging on, but Sun Yihuan has not heard from him, and Sun Yuanwai himself is also sad and in a trance all day long......
Madame has been with him for so many years, can she not see something?
Finally, after the two quarreled, the matter was turned over to the table, and all the people in the house knew about it.Although Xue Tui and Steward Sun have instructed the people below not to make a public announcement of this matter, paper can't contain the fire after all, you can't ask all the people in the Sun Mansion to have actor-like acting skills, and they are still idle after such a big thing happens in the mansion, right?
They are not eunuchs and palace maids in the palace, and if they say the wrong word, they will be killed, how can they guard you so closely?
So, at the end of April and the beginning of May, some rumors about "Sun Yihuan has died at sea" spread in the streets and alleys of Hangzhou.Of course, don't think that as soon as Sun Yihui "dies", Sun Fu will immediately become a role that is bullied by others......
This is obviously impossible.After all, before Sun Yihuan was born, the Sun family was already a big family with a head and a face, but the family did not control as many industries as it does now.Even if some local forces do want to fight the idea of the Sun family after learning the news that "Sun Yihui is dead", they have to think about this matter in the long run.However, it just so happened that at the end of April, there happened to be such a non-Hangzhou local predator who came here and wanted to make a name for himself here.This person's surname is Murong, a single name, because he wants to rub the popularity of the Chu overlord's nationality, so he gave himself a nickname, called "Gambling Overlord".Seeing this, some people may want to say, what is the use of your nickname?
How dare I call myself "Monkey King"?
Others don't recognize it?
So you're really on point......
Although this Murong nickname was given by himself, after he began to "fight the world", his title was indeed quickly recognized by the industry.Which industry, you ask?
That's the gambling industry, of course.As we said earlier, most of the gambling houses in the Dashu Dynasty are operated by the head snakes of the green forest roads in various places, but obviously there are a small number of exceptions.The Murong family is this "small part"; Behind them......
It's officialdom.Please note that it is not "Dongchang", nor "Jinyiwei", nor "Imperial Court", but "officialdom", that is, those officials who are officials in the court are engaged in their own small ninety-nine.Originally, with such a lucrative deal of oil and water like gambling, how could those who were officials not be blushing?
However, they were obviously not satisfied with just "peeling" from the casino operated by Lvlin Road, so some of the senior officials of the DPRK and China united to come up with an idea: since the imperial court can support the "Flying Pigeon Gang" and the "High-speed Rail Gang", then why can't we use similar methods to support a similar force in the gaming industry?

That's it, the Murong family, this and the imperial court, the rivers and lakes, and the green forest......
They all have deep roots, but now they have long been in the middle of the road, and they have been selected.After the two sides reached a cooperation agreement, a casino called "Huanyi Pavilion" soon opened in Hebei.Nominally, the Murong family was just an ordinary trader, and somehow they got the government's approval, and they entered the "gambling industry" in a daze.But in fact, it didn't take long for the Green Forest gang who tried to come to the door to teach this group of "peers who don't know the rules" to find out......
Behind this Huanyi Pavilion, or this Murong family, is an existence that they must not provoke.The news spread, and since then, no one dares to mess with the Murong family's business.In less than ten years, this Huanyi Pavilion has blossomed all over the larger prefectures and counties north of the Yangtze River; If the casinos in Dahui are regarded as a variety of restaurants controlled by different green woodland snakes, then the "Huan Yi Pavilion" under the Murong family is the so-called brand chain store.The income of these casinos has also become a very considerable gray income for some officials of Dashu (whether you can get it, and the proportion of the share, depends on whose protégé you are).To sum up, today's Murong family can be said to have turned from decline to prosperity and risen rapidly.As the eldest and youngest of the family, Murong is naturally more inflated in mentality, which gives him the nickname "Gambling Overlord".In late April of the twentieth year of Yongtai, Murong came to a "Raptors Crossing the River", intending to expand the family's business to Jiangnan, and its first stop was Hangzhou.But as soon as he arrived, his ears were filled with ......
What is "Sun Family Da Shao", "Sun Bancheng", "Fish Market Giant", "East Harmony"......
In short, no matter where he goes, what he wants to do, it seems that he has to deal with the person "covered" by Young Master Sun.So what do you want to ......
He must be upset.Your Young Master Sun is only a tyrant in Hangzhou at best, but I, Young Master Murong, am famous in the entire north of the Yangtze River, why do I seem to be a head lower than you?
Besides, you're not here now, and you're just relying on your reputation, which makes it difficult for me, so if you come back, what's the point?
How unreasonable!
He was angry, and he heard the rumor that Sun Yihuan died at sea.Can Murong Ji let go of this opportunity?
He took action: on the first day of the fifth month, the second anniversary of the opening of the West Lake Seat, he brought people to the door to find trouble, and directly smashed the restaurant.Tang Weizhi, who was in charge of watching the game, was loyal to Brother Sun, so he went up at that time, but he was defeated by the master sent by the other party, and after about 20 moves, he was injured and fainted, and he lay down for three days before he could get out of bed and walk.Xue Tui was very shrewd, he saw that the situation was not right, so when Tang Weizhi dragged the other party, he hurriedly went to the back kitchen to let Chef Yuan, Er Chef Zhang and the other junior two and miscellaneous servants all run away from the back door; Because he knew very well that anyone here was okay if they were injured, and if the two former imperial chefs had any mistakes......
For example, if someone has a mutilated hand, a broken leg or something, it will be irreparable.After sending everyone away, Xue Tui returned to the lobby and tried to control the situation, but that obviously didn't help, and as a result, he was also beaten to the head and bled out.Of course, Mr.
Xue is a scholar after all, and the other party will not chase him and beat him violently, and he will not care about him when he is pushed to the ground and unable to resist anymore, so he is only slightly injured.Afterwards, although Mr.
Xue also went to report to the official, but the prefect Lord Lu is also a person in the officialdom, knowing that the Murong family is behind his superiors, does he dare to fart?
And Sun Yuanwai was still immersed in the pain of losing his son at this time, and he didn't have the strength to mediate these things with the people in the government.So, that Murong Ji felt: It turns out that this Sun family is just a paper tiger after Sun Yihuan is missing, okay, then I will rest assured.The next day, Murong Ji took someone to wash the fish market.In short......
Five days have passed, and this "gambling overlord" can be said to have turned Sun Yihuan's business in Hangzhou upside down, and the Sun family seems to have no sign of being able to fight back at all.Coupled with the rumor that "Sun Yihui is dead", the other forces in the city have a feeling: maybe......
Young Master Sun's era has passed, and Young Master Murong's era is coming.But it was on the seventh day when Murong Ji began to make waves, and he came from Osaka......
Oh no......
The monster of Hangzhou has returned to his hometown.………… Listening to his father and Mr.
Xue finish talking about these recent things one by one, Sun Yihuan's anger is rising.He scolded in his heart at that time: Damn, where did you come from, while Lao Tzu was practicing outside, he actually dared to steal my house?
You don't know how to write dead characters, do you?
There is no doubt that Brother Sun is preparing to do something with Murong Ji.This leads to that - the fish head banquet on the shore of the West Lake, Sun Xiaodao vs. the gambling overlord.
