Tian Congxi stared at Sun Ming's back gloomily for a long time before he snorted, "Big grain merchant? I want to see how big this grain merchant is."
Having said that, he returned to his temporary residence, called his confidant, and asked him to inquire about the nearest outsider in the city.
Lu Wanlai signed a pledge in front of Chen Yan and Lu Changxin, saying that she must get to the bottom of the matter. However, since she came here, she has been either wandering around or drinking in brothels every day. Not to mention Sun Ming, even Ying and Zi Dian in the dark think that Lu Wan is bored staying in the capital, so they try every means to get out to relax.
Ying even reminded Lu Wan implicitly that Chen Yan was still waiting for news from here in Beijing. After hearing this, Lu Wan just smiled and said nothing.
That day, Lu Wan went to the largest brothel as usual, but not long after he sat there, the madam came knocking on the door and said that there was someone outside who wanted to see Lu Wan.
When Lu Wan heard this, he turned around and glanced at Ying with a smile, "Qiaoqiao, isn't the fish already hooked?"
Ying didn't understand what Lu Wan meant, but Lu Wan had already turned his head and scolded, "I came here to have fun. No matter who it is, I will not see anyone."
Having said that, he asked Ying to kick the madam out.
The madam knew that Lu Wan was a wealthy man, but the person on the other end was truly an official from the government office, and she couldn't afford to offend either side. When she was about to say something nice, the door was suddenly kicked open from outside. The man was wearing a long robe, but there was a calculating look in his eyes, and Lu Wan didn't like it when she called him that.
"Who are you? This is my box. You must have come to the wrong place."
She frowned and looked at the uninvited person in front of her.
The man was easy to talk to. He just smiled and said, "Excuse me, are you Boss Jin from the capital?"
Lu Wan pretended to be confused. "How do you know my name?"
The man laughed all of a sudden. "I heard that Boss Jin has some grain. I came from the capital, and was ordered to prepare grain for disaster relief, so I came to visit you."
"It turns out to be Lord Tian. I have heard of your name from General Sun a long time ago. Now that I see you today, I can see that you are indeed extraordinary. I have really admired you for a long time."
Tian Congxi knew that the young general Sun that Lu Wan was talking about was Sun Ming, and there was definitely nothing good coming out of his mouth, but he still smiled happily, "In this case, this official and Boss Jin can be considered old acquaintances."
Lu Wan hurried forward and personally invited Tian Congxi to sit down, and took out several hundred taels of silver notes from his pocket, "I have just arrived in your place, and I have nothing to give you as a gift. Just take this little money and enjoy yourself."
When Tian Congxi saw that Lu Wan was so understanding, he nodded with satisfaction and put all the banknotes into his pocket.
