Chapter 4 Door-to-door provocation
Although Huan Chang had many questions and wanted to ask the manager of Anyang Jun Mansion, he still didn't speak after seeing the other party's departure.
After all, he was a newcomer, and if he insisted on meeting Anyang Jun, he would probably be suspicious.
What's more, Huan Chang defected to Anyang Jun under the pseudonym, and no one had ever heard of Yang Yue. Even if he met Anyang Jun, the other party would not care about him.
"The future is long, and I'm going to stay in Song State for a while, so it's not too late to find out later."
Huan Chang pushed open the door and walked into his room. As soon as he sat down, he heard footsteps coming from outside, and his heart moved slightly.
"Dongdongdongdongdong."
A rhythmic knock on the door sounded, Huan Chang sorted out his clothes, then went over and opened the door, and saw a slightly obese man.
"Little brother, did you just move in today?"
Huan Chang watched this man's clothes look like a Confucian scholar but a merchant, and he couldn't help but secretly wonder.
"Yang Yue, I just moved in and lived there. How dare you ask for your honorable name?"
The fat man looked kinder, and his round face always had a smile, so Huan Chang naturally had to treat him with courtesy.
"In Xia Lu Xian, there is courtesy here."
Lu Xian was also looking at Huan Chang at this time, and saw Huan Chang wearing a blue shirt representing the identity of a Confucian scholar, with a high crown on his head and a sword hanging around his waist.
Even though Huan Chang looked very young, Lu Xian still dared not neglect at all.
As Huan Chang guessed, Lu Xian was a down-and-out businessman who was desperate and came to join Anyang Jun, eating and drinking here.
Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce.
Although merchants were rich, they did not have much status in Jiuzhou and could not wear blue shirts representing Confucian scholars or silks that only nobles could wear.
Even the social status of merchants is not as good as that of farmers and workers.
What's more, Lu Xian was still a down-and-out businessman who lost all his capital, and he didn't dare to show off in front of Huan Chang.
"Brother Lu, please come in!"
Huan Chang did not despise Lu Xian's identity as a merchant, but instead smiled and moved away from his body and led his hand to signal Lu Xian to enter the room.
Lu Xian showed a hesitant look on his face, but he secretly looked at Huan Chang's expression and found that the other party was quite sincere, so he walked in after all.
After asking Lu Xian to take his seat, Huan Chang said a little apologetically: "I have just moved here and have not prepared tea, so I can only be rude."
But Lu Xian waved his hand quickly and said, "It's okay, it's okay."
"Dongdongdongdongdongdong!"
The two of them sat down for a long time, and the knock on the door sounded again. Huan Chang stood up apologetically and prepared to go and open the door.
However, Lu Xian's face was a little unfair, and there was a little uneasiness mixed in it.
“Cruff.”
The door was opened and three people stood at the door. When Huan Chang saw the faces of the two behind him, he was a little surprised.
It turned out that the two middle-aged scholars behind were actually two people Huan Chang met on the street a few days ago.
Huan Chang didn't know the names of these two people, but from their conversation, Huan Chang knew that one of them had a surname Qi and the other was Tan.
"Did you just moved in?"
The man in the leader was very handsome, but his behavior was quite magnanimous, and his eyes wandered on Huan Chang and he looked very carefully.
“That’s right.”
Huan often felt that the other party was not very polite, so he immediately frowned slightly and did not come forward to greet him.
"I'm a little too arrogant when I see the elders come forward to greet them, right?"
The man in the leader saw Huan Chang's coldness, immediately raised his eyebrows slightly, and his tone was not very kind.
This person had heard that another Confucian scholar came here today, and then he took the two he had just won over to prepare to recruit new people.
Although this is Anyangjun’s mansion, many of the guests are fighting openly and secretly.
Those who are capable will form cliques and form small forces. Then, when Anyang Jun is in trouble, they will use the talents within the power to provide advice for Anyang Jun.
In this way, the leaders of the power can better attract the attention of Anyang Jun and then become successful.
Even if you cannot make a fortune, if you can make friends with truly capable people, and when this person is valued by Anyang Jun in the future, those disciples who are good friends with this person will naturally become a family and a dog.
This is why, as soon as Huan Chang entered the backyard, the man brought Qi and Tan to visit him.
However, as the saying goes: You have no hair on your mouth and don’t do things well.
Moreover, the Confucian long gown on Huan Chang was obviously just made, so it would inevitably arouse suspicion.
After all, it is not uncommon for many people to spend money to make long gowns of Confucian scholars in order to enter the Anyang Jun Mansion and then pretend to be Confucian scholars.
Even though the Anyang Jun disciples formed gangs and factions, not everyone was qualified to join. For example, Lu Xian, who was a businessman, was excluded by many small forces and would not have the power to accept this person at all.
After all, Jiuzhou is a society with strict hierarchy. If it were the past, businessmen like Lu Xian would not even be qualified to enter the Anyang Jun mansion.
Although merchants are qualified to come in now, they are also the lowest among the many disciples. Even those who steal the status are much higher than those who are Lu Xian.
However, seeing that Huan Chang was too young and with the brand new Confucian blue shirt, this person felt that Huan Chang came to Anyang Jun Mansion to eat and drink.
In this way, this person's sense of Huan Chang will naturally decline a lot.
"There are still guests at the next house. If you have nothing else, I will go back to entertain guests."
Huan Chang ignored the man's ridicule and directly issued an order to expel guests.
The man narrowed his eyes slightly, then smiled and said, "I don't know who is visiting your house so that I can meet you. Maybe we will know you."
"Yang, brother Yang..."
Huan Chang had to say something, but suddenly felt that Lu Xian was pulling his clothes and kept winking.
"Hmph, I thought I was a distinguished guest, but I didn't expect it to be this merchant full of stinky smell."
"Birds of birds flock together."
"You are mixed with this person, and even if you want to ask me to go in, I will not be with you or others."
The leading Confucian scholar's eyes were full of contempt, and he shook his sleeves and turned around and left.
"We scholars should pay attention to benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and trustworthiness."
"The so-called benevolence is that the great ones serve the country and the people, and the world is in mind; the small ones are frugal to cultivate themselves and lenient to others."
"The so-called etiquette is to be kind to others, to be humble and studious is to be kind to others, to be kind to others is also to be kind to others."
"I see that although you are wearing a blue shirt, your behavior is extremely arrogant and arrogant. Where can you have the mind and humility of a scholar?"
"I heard that many people change into Confucian robes and turn into essays to eat and drink in Anyang Jun Mansion. Could it be yours?"
