Chapter 377 New guests in Yingtian City
Chapter 377: New guests in Yingtian City

There were actually a lot of speculations about Hu Renbin's identity in Shangyuan County.

After all, no matter how "poor and remote" Shangyuan County is, it will not be noticed by the gentlemen of Yingtian Mansion.

That was also a suburban county under the rule of the dignified Yingtian Mansion.

They are inextricably linked to every yamen and door in Yingtian Mansion.

Therefore, from the first day when Hu Renbin came to Shangyuan County, speculation about Hu Renbin's background has not stopped.

The first reaction was that everyone guessed that Hu Renbin was from Mr. Hu's house.

After all, both of them have the surname Hu.

But everyone turned around and rejected this guess.

Hu Renbin is really too low-key.

Moreover, considering Master Hu's status and reputation, they couldn't believe that the legitimate son of the Hu family would come to Shangyuan County to become a small county captain.

After rejecting the correct answer at the first opportunity, no matter how these people guess, it is just a long way off the topic.

On the contrary, Hu Renbin was able to deal with all kinds of speculations from Shangyuan County like a fish in water.

After all, no matter how dandy Hu Renbin was back then, it could not change his identity as the eldest young master of the Hu family.

In those years, he had really eaten and seen it in Hu Mansion.

What kind of officials and what kind of scenes has he not seen before?

Compared with the ideas and tricks of the officials and squires in Shangyuan County, who could step into the door of Hu Mansion back then was not a human spirit?
Those are all fierce and outstanding people who can stand tall in the founding court of the Ming Dynasty.

Even if you just watch, you will always learn something after so many opportunities.

It is precisely because of Hu Renbin's impeccable and low-key attitude that he completely kept everyone guessing.

Until now, I am still making vague guesses.

Now it seems that there are many benefits.

At least there is less criticism, and at the same time, you don’t have to worry about being slighted by others. It’s really not that satisfying.

As the "loving father" behind Hu Renbin, Mr. Hu, who single-handedly created Hu Renbin's current situation, really doesn't care at all about Hu Renbin's current situation.

In his opinion, it was enough to help this little guy Hu Renbin get an official position!

If he is not in vain, then he is no longer a playboy who hangs out just because of his family background.

As for how big the official position is, it doesn't matter.

In other words, he wished that Hu Renbin would just be a small official in this life.

Anyway, with his power, no one dares to bully him.

How comfortable would it be to be a small official without any responsibilities?

If possible, Mr. Hu would really like to trade with him.

Unfortunately, it can’t be done!
Let’s not mention the arrangement between Mr. Hu and his son for the moment.

At this time, at the gate of Yingtian City, the soldiers guarding the city gate suddenly brightened up when they looked at a carriage that looked extremely luxurious at first glance and slowly drove towards the city gate.

Tsk tsk, it’s obvious that the big fat sheep is here.

Don't worry, guarding the door is a messy job.

But in the eyes of ordinary soldiers, this is a first-class job.

It doesn't matter what Kabakaba it is, it's all the benefits that you can put in your pocket.

No, as a veteran gatekeeper, this soldier knew at a glance that the person coming here must be a merchant.

It has to be a wealthy businessman from out of town.

In the eyes of the gatekeeper, this kind of people are nothing more than the word "fat sheep" written on their foreheads.

As a result, before he could stop the man and murmur a few words, the driver, who was sitting on the shaft of the carriage and driving the carriage, took out a shiny silver fruit from his arms and threw it at him.

Then, regardless of what he said, Shi Shiran flicked his riding whip and entered the city.

The gatekeeper was left standing there, dumbfounded looking at the silver fruit in his hand.

Mother!

Where did this damn stick come from?

You don’t even need to open your mouth to throw down a silver fruit! The key is that the silver fruit was thrown down directly by the driver, without even asking the owner.

Tsk tsk, the gatekeeper started to feel scared now.

Fortunately, I didn't stop him just now.

The driver of the carriage was so arrogant and arrogant. You can imagine the owner of the carriage.

Although the status of a merchant is not on the public stage, there is an old saying that goes well.

Wealth can help the gods!

Even the gods can communicate with him. God knows who this arrogant fat sheep has managed to get along with in Yingtian Mansion?

If I had accidentally offended him just now, just say something to the nobles in the city, I am afraid that I would have to peel off this layer of skin on my body.

Fortunately, fortunately!

I have to say that the gatekeeper is a discerning person after all.

The person sitting on the luxurious carriage that just drove into Yingtian Mansion was really a wealthy businessman from out of town.

Moreover, he was also a famous wealthy businessman in the Ming Dynasty.

He is Shen Wansan!

However, the gatekeeper was wrong about one thing.

It really doesn't matter that Shen Wansan is in Yingtian Mansion at this time.

And his trip was specifically to build relationships.

However, he is different from others because of his wealth and ability to communicate with gods.

What he wants to achieve is the best relationship in the world.

He wants to have a relationship with Zhu Yuanzhang!

For this reason, he specially prepared a treasure.

The reason is to try to gain favor in front of Zhu Yuanzhang.

After all, Shen Wansan had a close friendship with Zhang Shicheng back then.

When Zhang Shicheng was trapped in Suzhou to face Zhu Yuanzhang, Shen Wansan was the one who provided the bulk of the financial support.

If Shen Wansan hadn't immediately laid off his troops, paid compensation, and even donated money after the war to allow Zhu Yuanzhang to build Yingtian City...

I'm afraid Shen Wansan won't survive until now.

It's just that, despite his strong financial resources, he was able to maneuver both ways and became famous.

But it was also because of his ability to communicate with gods that he was feared by Zhu Yuanzhang.

It's okay to be rich, but it's a bit scary to be too rich. If you are rich enough to help Zhu Yuanzhang build Yingtian City, you can still spend a lot of money.

Over the years, Zhu Yuanzhang seemed to have ignored Shen Wansan, but in fact, Jin Yiwei had been monitoring Shen Wansan.

The key is that this surveillance has no intention of hiding it at all, it is just placed in front of Shen Wansan's eyes.

This feeling is so bad!

If it was just like this, then Shen Wansan might just endure it.

But since Li Shanchang's death, Zhu Yuanzhang restored maritime trade in some ports.

After hearing the news, Shen Wansan couldn't sit still.

As a giant businessman from the Jiangnan generation, he knew very well how profitable sea trade was.

In the past, it was okay to smuggle secretly.

But now that the imperial court has let go, he naturally wants trade rights.

If you can make money openly, who would be willing to hide it?

It was precisely because he wanted something that he finally took action.

He knew the rules and found a treasure specifically so that he could talk to Zhu Yuanzhang.

Even if this gift can slightly increase his favorability, he has made a profit!
