The East District of Hangzhou is a place where rich people live together. All kinds of mansions are tall and majestic, and there are many houses, all of which are carefully arranged with great care. The red lanterns are hung high, giving an air of wealth and nobility.

Rich businessmen live here, and some officials who have retired and returned to their hometowns also live here.

In addition to the luxurious mansions and mansions, there are also those straight and vigorous green pines, which stand on both sides of the street.

People in Dachu are superstitious about green pine, believing that green pine can make their homes prosperous and their children and grandchildren soar.

The mansion with the largest area and the most grandeur in the East District belongs to the "Lu Mansion".

The Lu family is the richest man in Hangzhou, and the mansion also shows this grandeur. Surrounded by green pines, the front door of the Lu Mansion is very particular. In addition to two circles of flower gardens, there are also two stone cranes standing on one foot and singing to the sky .

Xue Poye and Wu Lachi rode tall horses to the front of the mansion, and the guards guarding the door immediately stepped forward, seeing that they were seated on tall horses, obviously they were very well-known people, although the servants of Lu Mansion They were all arrogant, but they didn't dare to offend, and their voices were somewhat respectful: "Who are you two looking for?"

"Is your second young master at home?" Xue Poye asked while rubbing his nose.

The servant took a look at Xue Poye, squinted his eyes and said, "Are you looking for my second young master? May I ask which house the young master is from?"

Although Xue Poye's clothes are not luxurious, but the golden lion under his seat is a rare BMW. Since the Lu family is the richest man in Hangzhou, the servants in the mansion also have some discernment. Xue Poye is a son of a wealthy family.

Xue Poye didn't explain, and said calmly: "I'm looking for your second young master, you go and report."

The servant shook his head and said: "Young master, my second young master has not returned to the house for several days, and the second grandma sent people to search everywhere, but I don't know where she went!"

Xue Poye let out an "oh" and thought, "Could it be that coward hid in fright and hasn't returned home yet?"

Wu Lachi approached and said, "Good friend, shall we go in?"

"Brother Wu, since we're here, we can't make this trip in vain!" Xue Poye laughed and said, "Second Young Master is not at home, Second Mistress is always at home." Turning to the servant, he said calmly, "Go and tell your Second Mistress , just say that someone came to pay a visit!"

The servant hesitated and said, "Young master, can you tell me your name? I'd like to know!"

Xue Poye sneered and said, "Tell your second grandma that the debt collector is here!"

Seeing Wu Lachi's fierce face, the servant didn't dare to ask any more questions, and hurried back to the mansion to report.

The servant didn't keep Xue Poye waiting too long, he came out soon, and said hostilely: "Our second grandma is here!"

Xue Poye also said that Mrs. Fang would refuse to enter the mansion, but unexpectedly she let herself in, got off the horse, handed the reins to the servant, and said: "Take the two horses and feed them well. If there is a hair missing, I will I will definitely not spare you!"

Seeing the arrogant Xue Poye and the ferocious Wu Lachi, the servant hurriedly handed over the horse to another famous servant, took it down to feed it well, and led the way by himself, leading the two to meet Mrs. Fang.

Stepping into the Lu Mansion, the first thing you see is a pool full of lotus flowers. The pool is surrounded by carved railings and jade. One end and two into one.

Walking to the edge of the pool, a burst of fragrance of lotus came to the nostrils. In the clear water of the pool, there were actually a few red carp swimming around.

Walking along the marble road for a while, a rockery stands suddenly, with lush flowers on both sides. Two little girls are watering the flowers with water bottles. The pavilions and pavilions in front are quiet and leisurely. Under the verdant trees, surrounded by red flowers and green trees, rockery and small ponds, you can't see it all at a glance, it's so beautiful, it's like entering a garden.

Wu La Chi was born in the grassland, never had he seen such a beautiful scenery, he was dazzled by it for a while, and was full of admiration.

Xue Poye has visited many gardens, and the layouts are all exquisite, but the layout in Lu Mansion is even more exquisite, every stone, every water, every flower and every tree are just right, it seems that more or less will affect this exquisite layout , Ineffective.

As the servant passed through several circular arches, the walls seemed to be made of white marble, which was really luxurious. Along the way, the scenery was beautiful, and butterflies were occasionally seen flying over the delicate flowers and green grass.

Xue Poye has great admiration for the designer of the Lu Mansion, such a masterpiece is definitely from the master's handwriting.

The wealth of the Lu family is indeed well-deserved.

Not far in front is a very imposing house, in front of the house is a majestic rockery, and there are several colorful birds resting on the mountain.

Those big birds had no fear of people and were not afraid. When Xue Poye and the others passed by, they were still combing their feathers leisurely without even looking at everyone.

Ten meters away from the house, the servant stopped, pointed to the gate, and said coldly: "Second Mistress is inside, you two, please go there by yourself!" Without saying a word, he turned and left.

The two looked at each other, both laughed, and walked towards the room together.

Before they got close, they heard a faint cry from inside, which turned out to be a man's cry. Amidst the cry, the two faintly heard strange words.

"They... they ambushed hundreds of people... they are all untouchables from Fanjia Village... they even scolded Second Grandma... Second Grandma is unreasonable...!"

Hearing that voice, Xue Poye was surprisingly familiar. After thinking for a while, he suddenly understood, and smiled at Wu Lachi: "The butler of the Lu family is suing!"

Wu Rachi drew out his scimitar, and said coldly, "I'll kill him!"

Xue Poye hurriedly stopped him and said, "Brother Wu, don't be rash, we are here to collect debts, not to kill people!"

Wu Lachi thought for a moment, put away the knife, and said: "If he is dishonest, I will cut off his head with one knife."

The Beihu people were indeed fierce, Xue Poye sighed secretly, he was lucky to be able to match the temper of this fierce Beihu people.

A cold voice came from the room: "They did it first?" The voice was cold and hostile, but the voice itself was a little soft. Xue Poye heard it and immediately confirmed that it was Mrs. Fang.

Mrs. Fang's voice seemed to be inherently stern. When she met her in Qinghefang, she was arrogant and domineering, and extremely cold.

Housekeeper Lu hurriedly said: "Yes, after we passed by, we talked softly, just wanted to have a good talk, and put down the Lan Yuexuan, who knew that their shopkeeper was very unreasonable, saying that we offered too little price, and even scolded me for belittling me. They, one of his savage Beihu people will beat people!"

Wu Lachi listened to it, his face full of anger, Xue Poye patted his arm lightly, signaling him to be calm and calm.

The two approached the room slowly and listened more carefully. Mrs. Fang's delicate voice said coldly: "How much money did you pay? Is it the two thousand taels I said?"

Butler Lu hurriedly said, "Yes, I mean two thousand taels!"

Xue Poye showed a faint smile, butler Lu went to Lanyuexuan to ask for 1,500 taels, obviously with a heart of corruption.

Xue Poye didn't want to listen any more, so Housekeeper Lu added oil and vinegar to the nonsense, and it would not do him any good if he continued, so he coughed hard twice.

He coughed deliberately, his voice was extremely loud, and Mrs. Fang's voice came from inside the room: "Who? Who's outside?"

Xue Poye said loudly: "Xue Poye, the shopkeeper of Lanyuexuan, came to collect debts and disturbed Madam!"

As soon as the words fell, Butler Lu screamed in surprise, and lost his voice: "It's... it's you?" Hearing the sound of footsteps, the door opened with a "crack", and Butler Lu showed his face. : "Come on, tie up these two guys!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a lot of people suddenly appearing from the originally extremely quiet surroundings, and they all quickly surrounded him.

Suddenly I heard Mrs. Fang say coldly: "Lu Fu, let them go down, will it be your turn to order them tied up?"

Lu Fu, the steward of Lu, looked resentful. Mrs. Fang spoke and waved helplessly to everyone. Those people immediately retreated and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Because the book has a huge structure and is full of infinite struggles, and a corner of the struggle is unfolded in Hangzhou, so I will try my best to bury the political foreshadowing here, and also package and process the protagonist so that he can face many later conflicts and dangers. There is a murderous intent buried in the tranquility, I hope everyone can watch it calmly, of course there is an exquisite layout that everyone is looking forward to, I am not underestimating myself, ha ha!
