Fang Zhengji transmigrated to the Great Jing Dynasty, becoming a small county magistrate. He spent seven years building his own secluded paradise, originally intending to live a carefree life as a ...
The next morning.
Inside Chu Youyi's boudoir, Fang Zhengyi stared speechlessly at the half-eaten pickled radish on the bedside. There were still teeth marks on the bottom of the radish. It was a good thing that she could eat it even though it was so salty.
He was worried early in the morning, fearing that the donkey medicine might have side effects, so he came to check on Chu Youyi's condition.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I entered the room, Chu Youyi had disappeared.
Fang Zheng stood there and thought for a while but still had no idea, so he turned around and prepared to leave.
He had just returned to his room carrying a large bag of silver and was about to go out when a strange figure stopped him.
"Stop! Where are you from? Why have I never seen you before?"
Fang Zheng must have taken a closer look. Isn't this Butler Dong?
Dong Fu also looked at Fang Zhengyi eagerly.
Since his white clothes were stained by vomit yesterday, he was still wearing a servant's uniform.
Fang Zhengyi said calmly: "My name is Fang Tangjing. May I ask who you are?"
Dong Fu stared at Fang Zhengyi and said, "Fang Tangjing? I heard yesterday that you were working as a servant for the Second Young Miss. But I am the one who takes care of all the servants in the family. How come I have never seen someone like you?"
"Or...you sneaked in while I was away!" Dong Fu's voice was already stern when he said this.
Two sets of servant uniforms were lost before, and he went back to the Chu family yesterday and immediately asked someone about it. Sure enough, he found two strangers!
It is likely that the two beggars sold the clothes, and then someone with ulterior motives bought them and sneaked into the Chu family... or are these two people the two beggars?
But the tone of his voice is totally different.
Thinking of those two bastards, Dong Fu is still itching with hatred!
When Fang Zheng saw his ferocious expression, he smiled slightly and threw the silver into Butler Dong's arms!
Dong Fu stumbled and almost failed to catch the bag of two hundred taels of silver. He looked at Fang Zheng in surprise and asked, "What are you doing?"
Fang Zheng put his hands behind his back and said with a smile, "Two hundred taels of silver, for you."
"???" Dong Fu quickly opened the package and saw that there were actually two hundred taels in it. He couldn't help but breathe quickly: "What do you mean?"
"Butler Dong, I did sneak in." Fang Zhengyi raised his head and spoke slowly, "I was walking on the street when I met a man named Guo Tianyang who was selling clothes."
"As soon as I saw that the clothes belonged to a servant of the Chu family, I bought them. To be honest, I have been in love with the young lady for a long time, but I was reluctant to do so. The Lai Fu who came with me is my servant."
Hearing Guo Tianyang, Dong Fu's face showed a gnashing of teeth.
That son of a bitch dares to set up a stall. If I catch him, I’ll tear him to pieces!
"These two hundred taels are my gift to you. If the young lady asks, please keep it a secret for me, Steward Dong. I will give you another three hundred taels after the matter is completed."
Dong Fu was holding the heavy silver in his arms. When he heard that there were still three hundred taels left, he was already tempted.
Seeing his extraordinary demeanor, Dong Fu asked out of caution: "Who are you? This is a serious matter, I must tell the master!"
"My identity?... No, I can't tell you, and you shouldn't ask too much! My father is an official. If he knew that I'm a servant here, he would skin me alive!" Fang Zheng showed a worried look.
Being an official? No wonder he spent hundreds of taels.
However, the Chu family also has contacts with the government. It is very rare for the son of a high-ranking official to come and work as a servant... like a dandy.
Which master in the city has a playboy as his son?
Dong Fu looked Fang Zhengyi up and down, and asked hesitantly: "Are you Sun Tongzhi..."
"I'm not!" Fang Zheng shouted, and quickly went over to cover Dong Fu's mouth, saying vigilantly: "Remember my last name is Fang! If you insist on going back to tell on me, then return the money to me and I'll leave immediately!"
After saying that, Fang Zheng reached out to grab the bag from Dong Fu's arms.
How could he let the money go? Dong Fu quickly grabbed the bundle and said, "Mr. Sun... No, Mr. Fang, I'll keep it a secret for you! I'll keep it a secret for you!"
Fang Zheng's expression eased a little and he let go of his hand: "You've got to know your place! Don't call me that anymore. Remember my last name is Fang!"
"I understand, I understand... But Master Fang, when are you leaving?"
"Don't worry, I won't stay here for more than a few days."
"Then the three hundred taels..." "I'll give it to you in two days."
Dong Fu bowed excitedly: "Sir, your love is so deep, I admire you. Then I will help you once!"
"Yeah!" Fang Zheng nodded contentedly, then shouted, "Lai Fu! Lai Fu! Get over here!"
Lai Gou'er was in the yard. When he heard someone calling him, he ran over in a panic.
First he saw Fang Zhengyi, and then he saw Dong Fu.
This time he panicked even more. He walked to Fang Zhengyi tremblingly and glanced at Dong Fu guiltily.
Fang Zheng smiled and said, "He is my servant Lai Fu, Lai Fu! Why don't you greet Steward Dong?"
"Hello, Butler Dong!" Lai Gou'er said in confusion.
Dong Fu nodded: "Okay, since we have met, I won't bother you any more. If you need any help, you can come to me."
"Okay, go do your thing."
Fang Zheng watched Dong Fu leave, and Lai Gou'er immediately asked excitedly: "Brother, what's going on?"
"Don't ask me any more questions. I'm just asking if there is a Beggars' Gang in the city. I need some help."
Lai Gou'er thought for a moment and said, "Yes, there is a Beggars' Gang in Xicheng District. The leader is Liang something, but I think they are useless. They just get together to beg for food and live together in a dilapidated temple at night. Brother, if you want to find them, I can take you there."
"Okay, go do your thing and come out with me tonight!"
......
After properly solving the hidden danger, Fang Zhengyi took out all the money, bought new clothes and prepared to join forces with the brothel to form the Red Flower Society.
After all, there is still a lot of money to be earned in the future, so it is better to spend more money like water to be prepared.
With what happened at Qun Yu Yuan the day before, it became much easier to negotiate the subsequent brothels.
After all, the name of the legendary prostitute and drunkard Li Bai had spread throughout Yuding City overnight.
Everyone knows that this little-known Li Bai's poetry writing skills are comparable to those of the master Fang Zhengyi!
Countless brothels wanted to invite the drunkard Li Bai to write poems and calligraphies.
Fang Zheng was speechless. Every time he wrote a poem, he was forced to do it. He never intended to plagiarize, but to be honest, he ended up with such a result!
Damn it! If Li Zuzong knew about this, he would be so angry that he would jump out of his grave and take him away!
Not only did he copy Li Bai's poems, he also ruined Li Bai's reputation...and finally used Li Bai as a stepping stone!
.....
A day later, Fang Zhengyi selected a brothel and gave Yu Niang a list of names to contact, and also made an appointment with a restaurant.
As the sky gradually darkened, Fang Zhengyi led more than 20 people to the Beggars' Sect headquarters...
