The Rise of the Shen Family

v1 Chapter 318: Big Brother Banquet

As night falls, every household in this city has been lit up with bright lights.

For a time, the entire Yunbei City was covered by lights.

Walking on the main road, although there are not as many passers-by as there are in the daytime, they are also bustling with one another, which is extremely lively.

The shops along the street are brightly lit, and among the large and small wine shops, tea houses, and shops, there are still many people shaking, pushing cups and mingling, and it is endless fun!

At this time, Yunbei City is full of the atmosphere of secular fireworks, just like a secular night market, where there are monks who want to enjoy life!

Looking at the bustling scenes on both sides of the street, Shen Ruiling couldn't help feeling a little joy in her heart, as if she had been infected by the surrounding environment.

In this way, after Shen Jinghua's two nephews and uncles walked for a while on the bustling street, a majestic attic appeared at the end of the street.

The whole attic is brightly lit, and the bright lights illuminate the attic for several miles around as bright as day without leaving a trace of dark corners.

After Shen Jinghua and Shen Ruiling stopped for a while in front of the gate of Qingyun Pavilion, they stepped forward and walked inside.

As soon as the two of them got started, a buddy greeted them and said respectfully:

"Two seniors, please come with me!"

Hearing this, Shen Jinghua and the two nodded slightly, and then followed the pace of the buddy and walked towards the third floor.

After arriving on the third floor, Shen Ruiling couldn't help but looked at the scene in front of him curiously.

The first thing that caught his eyes was a magnificent hall. In this hall were laid out idle tables, and each table was full of monks.

They either drank alone, or the two of them toasted to each other, enjoying the wine and delicacies to their heart's content, looking intoxicated.

In addition, on one side of the hall, a hazy door curtain blocked the area behind.

Within this curtain, several exposed singers are playing the elegant and pleasant guqin.

The melodious and lingering sound of the piano, accompanied by bursts of refreshing sandalwood, reverberates in this hall.

The diners full of seats, amidst the melodious sound of the piano, are enjoying the wine and delicacies, which is very pleasant!

Passing through the lively hall, Shen Jinghua's uncle and nephew came to a quiet private room.

"Two seniors please!"

Stepping into this private room, Shen Ruiling looked around again, with a look of intoxication on her face.

In the middle of this room, there is a pair of tables and chairs, surrounded by pots of vigorous green plants, and there are several exquisite calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall. In the smoker in the corner, there are curls. Green smoke.

I saw that Shen Jinghua directly found a chair and sat down, took a sip from the tea cup on the side table, and slowly said to Shen Ruiling:

"Sit down and wait!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Ruiling came to Shen Jinghua to sit down, looked at the surrounding environment, and asked with a strange expression:

"Uncle Six, the cost of this private room is not cheap, right?"

Shen Jinghua couldn't help but give him a blank look, and said with some playfulness:

"Are you kid planning to pay this money?"

After hearing this, Shen Ruiling couldn't help showing a sullen look on his face, and quickly replied:

"It's better to come, Uncle Six!"

At this moment, Shen Jinghua just glanced at him with a smile on his face, and then stopped talking.

After being silent for a while, Shen Ruiling seemed to have thought of something again, and looked at Shen Jinghua again and asked:

"Uncle Six, what are the backgrounds of the two people you banqueted today!"

"One is the acting city lord, and the other is the treasurer of Qingyun Pavilion!"

Shen Jinghua took a sip from his teacup, and then said leisurely.

"I know all of these, is there no more?" Shen Ruiling asked involuntarily.

He had heard the identities of these two people from the crowd when they opened the business, but he thought it was much more than that.

Facing Shen Ruiling's inquiry, Shen Jinghua slowly put down the tea cup, with a solemn expression on his face, and said in a deep voice:

"The middle-aged man was named Song Qingxuan, and he was an Inner Sect brother of mine, and he was also the second son of the Song family, the first family of Yunbei City!

The old man's name is Hong Kun, and he is also my senior brother, and he is also the fourth master of the Hong family of the five major families! "

After hearing these words, Shen Ruiling's face also showed a solemn expression, and her heart was already shocked.

Now he is no longer a rookie who has just entered Yunbei City. He now has a clear understanding of the forces in this city.

The strength of this Song family is naturally needless to say. Although it is not ranked among the top ten families in Pingzhou, it is almost the same as the ones at the bottom of the list.

Although the Hong family is not as powerful as the Song family, it is also ranked third among the five major families in Yunbei City, and its strength is obviously not to be underestimated!

For a moment, Shen Ruiling looked at her sixth uncle, and a respectful expression appeared on her face.

He understands that these two big families are all looking at the face of his sixth uncle, and they will come to cheer this scene when they open their doors, otherwise they will not be able to alarm their lofty bosses at all!

And his sixth uncle can make the core clans of these two big families bend down so much, obviously there is a reason why they are worth it.

As for what the reason is, it is not something that a small cultivator can figure out in the early days of foundation building!

While Shen Ruiling was pondering, the wooden door of this room was pushed open again, and a middle-aged man with a dignified appearance walked in. It was the acting city lord, Song Qingxuan!

I saw that Song Qingxuan strode into the room and said to the two nephews and uncle Shen Jinghua with a smile on his face:

"I just rushed over to deal with the ten thousand official business, so the two of you have been waiting for a long time!"

"It doesn't matter, we just arrived not long ago, please sit down, Brother Song!"

Shen Jinghua got up and bowed his hand to Song Qingxuan.

"Okay, let's sit down with the younger brother!"

After Song Qingxuan took his seat, he looked around, then opened his mouth and said:

"Is this old brother Hong not here yet?"

At this time, another hearty laugh came from outside the door.

"The two younger brothers have been waiting for a long time. Brother, I just went to the back kitchen and took a look, so I came a step late!"

As soon as the voice fell, an old man had already appeared in this elegant room. It was Hong Kun, the treasurer of the Qingyun Pavilion.

After seeing the old man appear, the three of Shen Jinghua got up and laughed:

"Senior Brother Hong, please sit down!"

"good!"

I saw that the old man came to the vacant seat and sat down directly, and then said to the guy behind him:

"Serve!"

"Okay, the shopkeeper of UU reading www.uukarnshu.com!"

The guy quickly agreed, turned and left.

After a while, one after another beautifully made dishes were served.

"Come on, first congratulations to Junior Brother's shop for the successful opening of the shop, the business is prosperous!"

I saw that Song Qingxuan stood up and raised wine glasses at both ends of Shen Jinghua's uncle and nephew.

"Yes, right, right, today is the day when the junior apprentice shop opens, I wish junior apprentice a prosperous business!"

The old man also took the wine glass and congratulated Shen Jinghua.

Facing the two people's toast, Shen Jinghua quickly got up and said politely:

"Thank you for the good words of the two seniors, and thank the two seniors for coming to join us in their busy schedule. The juniors are grateful!"

When the voice fell, Shen Jinghua directly raised his glass of wine and drank it in one go!
