Chapter 173
The servants quickly brought hot water, but housekeeper Zhen still knew a little bit about Liu Jin's preferences.
Not long after, Zhen Yi and Mrs. Zhang hurried over.
"Haha, Ziqian, what brought you here? We also said that we will go to Yingchuan after the Yellow Turban Rebellion is over."
Zhen Yi grinned from ear to ear, it has been a year, except for the first letter, his son-in-law seemed to have forgotten about the Zhen family, which made him very disappointed, but fortunately, he came in person.
"Father-in-law, mother-in-law." Liu Jin also stood up with a smile and saluted.
"Ziqian is here this time, but he must stay for a few more days. Jiang'er and Tuo'er are always thinking about you." Zhang's smile was like a flower, and the spring breeze was blowing on her face.
"Yes, yes, stay for a while longer, why not just spend the New Year at Zhen's house." Zhen Yi nodded repeatedly, he had to let his daughter and son-in-law cultivate their relationship well.
"Father-in-law, don't make trouble. I'm here to suppress the rebellion in Quyang. I only come out when I'm free." Liu Jin blushed nonsense and said nonsense. There is still more than a month before the Chinese New Year, and he still has other things to do. Can live in Zhen's house all the time.
"Oh, that's the business." Zhen Yi no longer forced himself, he was already content with his son-in-law coming to see him.
After they were seated, Zhen Yi curiously asked about the war.
"Ziqian, I don't know how far the rebellion has been suppressed now."
"It's basically settled down. The first of the three thieves, Zhang Jiao, Zhang Bao, and Zhang Liang, are dead, and the rest are fighting on their own. There shouldn't be any big waves in a short time."
Liu Jin hesitated for a while, but didn't tell the news that Zhang Jiao had run away, so everyone would think he was dead.
"It's good to die, it's good to die." Zhen Yi gritted his teeth with hatred when talking about these yellow scarf thieves. This year, the income of the Zhen family has dropped by [-]%, and some people even attacked the Zhen family, but they were all killed by the Zhen family Qu Sha fled in despair.
"Father-in-law, don't take it lightly. The Yellow Turban Rebellion may last for several years." Liu Jin warned Zhen Yi, don't think that the three brothers Zhang Jiao and Zhang Jiao are dead.
"Well, we understand." Zhen Yi nodded to express his understanding that if some people's goals are not achieved, the banditry will not end.
The two chatted for a while, and the two sons and four daughters of the Zhen family also came one after another.
The two sons greeted Liu Jin enthusiastically, and the four daughters greeted Liu Jin shyly and timidly.
Liu Jin smiled and greeted several people.
Zhen Yi watched the happy scene with satisfaction, feeling that his life had reached its peak.
The few people chatted for a while, and the food began to be served one after another.
Liu Jin asked the butler to pour the wine he brought directly, and the female family members can also come and taste a little less.
The butler carefully poured a glass for everyone, smelling the aroma of wine in the air, he couldn't help swallowing.
Looking at the clear water in the glass, Zhen Yi came back to his senses, and said with a fiery face:
"Is this the Moutai that is rumored to prolong life?"
Liu Jin nodded calmly, "Drinking a small amount every day can indeed increase your life by three to five years. If your father-in-law likes it, you can save some when I leave. However, the current production is limited, and it is estimated that the scale will not be expanded until the next year."
"Okay, then let's not be polite, Ziqian has a heart." Zhen Yi looked happy, and hurriedly nodded in agreement, look, this is the benefit of finding the right son-in-law.
Zhen Yan and Zhen Yao couldn't wait to take a sip, they couldn't help coughing due to choking, their faces were flushed, and they just felt that this was the best wine they had ever drank in their lives, bar none.
Mrs. Zhang and the four daughters of the Zhen family also took a sip, and all of a sudden, the spring was full of purples and reds, so touching.
Liu Jin quickly lowered his head, muttering "Do not look at evil."
Several men were drinking and chatting, and it was very lively.
The voice of the housekeeper swallowing saliva kept coming from Liu Jin's ears, and he was very speechless, so he asked him to pour himself a glass and taste it.
The butler looked at Liu Jin incredulously, can he drink this kind of fairy wine by himself?
After receiving Liu Jin's affirmation, the butler knelt down in front of Liu Jin without saying a word, crying so hard that he couldn't stop, and kept calling for uncle benevolence, which made Liu Jin's head hurt.
"Shut up, why are you crying on a happy day." Zhen Yi saw the housekeeper crying endlessly, and shouted angrily.
The steward's crying stopped, and he quickly got up to wipe away his tears, and mumbled: "I...I'm just so happy, this uncle Xianjiu is actually rewarding me, even if I die now, it's worth it."
"You don't think it's embarrassing, we're ashamed too." Zhen Yi's face was all black, looking at you who have never seen the market, you are simply an idiot.
"Yes, Patriarch." The butler didn't dare to say anything more, poured himself a glass of wine tremblingly, and licked it up, this kind of immortal wine must be tasted slowly.
Zhen Yi almost laughed angrily, it seems that he must be educated in the future to avoid embarrassment.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Liu Jin put down his chopsticks and started talking about business.
"Father-in-law, I'm actually here to ask for help this time."
Zhen Yi was overjoyed immediately when he heard this, he is not afraid that you will speak, but he is afraid that you will not be able to think of the Zhen family.
What can the Zhen family do to help, money.
Is it a matter that can be solved with money?
"Ziqian said this, but it's out of the question. If there is anything, it's okay to say it. We will never refuse."
"Okay, then I'll just say it straight." Liu Jin glanced at the crowd, and there was no one else present except the butler, but not everyone is qualified to come in and serve a family banquet like this, obviously the butler is Zhen Yat's confidant.
"When I went to Yingchuan this time, I found out about my background."
"Birth experience?" Zhen Yi was puzzled, didn't he ask for help, why did he talk about his life experience again.
"That's right, I look exactly like His Majesty today." Liu Jin spoke slowly, but his voice sounded like a thunderbolt, making everyone dizzy.
The entire living room was silent for a while, as if there was no one else.
"thump!"
The housekeeper fell directly on the ground, struggled twice but did not get up, his body kept shaking like chaff.
"Ziqian's words are serious?" Zhen Yi came back to his senses and looked at Liu Jin in disbelief.
Liu Jin nodded calmly.
"Hiss!" There were gasping voices one after another, and everyone stared at Liu Jin in horror.
Zhen Yi calmed down first, but his voice was still a little trembling, and his eyes were burning hot.
"If Ziqian needs anything, just ask, and the Zhen family will definitely help."
The Zhen family's wealth is beyond count, and the children and grandchildren can't spend it all at will.
If you want to go further, you have to start from other aspects, such as name, such as power.
Is there anything more rewarding than investing in Liu Jin now?
No!
The opportunity for the Zhen family to soar into the sky is right in front of them, how can they miss it.
"I have an army of [-] in Yingchuan, and I'm short of money, food, and military equipment. I'm short of everything, so I need the support from my father-in-law." Liu Jin smiled and bowed his hands to Zhen Yi.
