Chapter 33 Ren Xia Zhou Zhan
Su Yun looked for a while, then smiled slightly, quietly went ashore and entered the Linjiang Tower.

When Xu Jian saw Su Yun coming, he was immediately overjoyed and boasted to Su Yun: "Mr. Su, did you see the plaque outside when you came in? What do you think? Isn't this a good idea?"

Su Yun gave a thumbs up and said, "It's a very simple, but very effective marketing method."

Xu Jian patted his big belly and laughed, "Of course it is effective. It's worth it that I hired a skilled craftsman overnight and spent a lot of money to carve it. If you walk closer, you can even smell the smell of wet paint on it."

Su Yun also laughed and said, "There's no need to be so anxious."

Xu Jian laughed and said, "That's just a stopgap measure. I've asked a stonemason to make two huge pieces of craft stone!

One piece will be placed by the river, and the other piece will be placed on the open space in front of our restaurant. Our Linjianglou will be the restaurant with the most cultural heritage.

Hehe, whoever cruises the Yangtze River and doesn’t visit Linjiang Tower is a country bumpkin! "

Su Yun looked at the ambitious Xu Jian and couldn't help but shook his head and smiled.

Xu Jian quickly took out the contract and said, "Come on, Mr. Su, take a look at these contracts. If you think any of them are not okay, I will immediately ask the accountant to come and modify them."

Su Yun took a quick look and didn't see any traps or controversial areas, so he signed and put his fingerprints on it. Xu Jian also quickly signed and put his seal on it, and each of them held a copy of the contract.

After the contract was completed, the two smiled at each other, and both found each other more pleasing to the eye, with a kind of intimacy of sharing weal and woe.

Su Yun raised the contract in his hand and said with a smile: "Don't you feel bad that Mr. Xu gave me 30%?"

Xu Jian laughed and said, "If Mr. Su is willing to go to Wangjiang Tower and write a poem of similar level, then Old Lu will also be willing to offer 30% of the shares. This is not because of the reward for the poem, but because being tied to you will be the amulet of the Xu family!"

Su Yun didn't comment, and suddenly said, "Boss Xu, I want to ask you something."

Xu Jian nodded and said, "Don't be polite, Mr. Su. Just ask."

The two looked at each other and smiled. Xu Jian said with a smile: "Don't be so polite. Just call me Lao Xu from now on."

Su Yun smiled and said, "Okay, you can call me Xiao Su or Su Yun from now on."

Xu Jian waved his hand and smiled: "That's impossible, do you have any words?"

Su Yun shook his head and said, "Not yet, go back and ask my uncle to get one."

Xu Jian nodded, then suddenly realized what was happening and asked, "Why haven't you chosen a name yet?"

Su Yun smiled and said, "Isn't this normal? I'm only fifteen years old, why should I choose a name so early?"

Xu Jian was shocked: "You are fifteen years old?"

Su Yun smiled and raised the contract in his hand and asked, "Does Mr. Xu regret it?"

Xu Jian did not regret it. Not only did he not regret it, but there was also a look of surprise on his face.

He was able to write such a peerless masterpiece as Linjiangxian at the age of fifteen. What do you call this? This is a child prodigy!
The Song Dynasty has always favored child prodigies, but what were the child prodigies in the past? They were nothing more than those who could read and recite books and poems at a young age, and who could write a few doggerel, and were considered child prodigies. There were not many who could really write popular poems.

The artistic value of Linjiangxian written by Su Yun was admired even by Su Shi. Such a child prodigy is a true child prodigy!
So, the person standing in front of him now is the most beloved nephew of the Song Dynasty Wenquxing, the fifteen-year-old child prodigy, the one who looks like a Song Dynasty person, the lyricist of Linjiangxian, the unparalleled filial piety and righteousness Jiangyou Su Lang!

For Linjiang Tower, the more famous Su Yun is, the more benefits it will gain.

Seeing Xu Jian's expression, Su Yun reminded him, "Old Xu, I have to remind you something." Xu Jian quickly said, "You go ahead and say it."

Su Yun smiled bitterly and said, "Don't be so polite. What I mean is that although I am using my fame to attract customers at present, I still have to rely on Linjiangxian's poem to make a fuss. After this period of time, this poem will be the core. Do you understand?"

Xu Jian understood what Su Yun meant. People in this world will receive all kinds of praise and criticism, but poetry will always live on.

Xu Jian nodded solemnly and said, "I will, don't worry. Hey, what did you want to know just now?"

Su Yun smiled to himself. They had just been talking about something, but they didn't expect the topic to go off topic all of a sudden.

Su Yun quickly said: "I want to ask you, what kind of person is Zhou Zhan?"

Xu Jian suddenly became a little nervous and asked, "Mr. Su, why are you asking him? Have you offended him?"

Su Yun smiled and said, "How could I, a kind-hearted person, offend anyone?

Zhou Zhan built a small courtyard and asked me to write inscriptions and poems.

I thought I had no idea what kind of person he was. If he was a local tyrant or some evil gentry, wouldn't that ruin my uncle's reputation? So I asked you about it.

From your tone, it seems that Zhou Zhan is someone you can't mess with?"

Xu Jian breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "So that's how it is. How should I put it about Zhou Zhan? He's quite complicated.

His family background is actually quite clean. Several generations of his ancestors have been doing business, such as shipping, grain and the like. They are quite law-abiding and I have never heard of any hoarding or other such things happening.

As for his lands, they were accumulated from generation to generation, and there was no news of his family taking advantage of disaster years to annex land.

On the contrary, their family sponsored the most to the Huangzhou Charity Bureau, and when disaster strikes, their family will provide relief such as porridge. "

Su Yun was surprised and said, "So, the Zhou family is a good family. Why do you say Zhou Zhan is more complicated?"

Xu Jian smiled bitterly and said, "The Zhou family has had a good reputation for several generations, except for Zhou Zhan. He is a very strange person. He is a little...rebellious."

"Oh?" Su Yun was somewhat interested when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Tell me in detail, how did he go against the rules?"

Xu Jian nodded and said, "Zhou Zhan's father only had him, so Zhou Zhan has been the apple of his eye since he was a child, so his personality is a bit weird.

When his father was alive, he didn't like studying, but instead spent his time drinking and carousing. The whole Huangzhou knew that he was a famous playboy.

Later, when he got married, he was foolish and insisted on breaking off the engagement, saying that he wanted to pursue some love. The marriage was broken off, but no one in Huangzhou was willing to marry him anymore.

He didn't care. He just drank and practiced swords every day and spent money like dirt. People in Huangzhou called him a prodigal son.

But he was also very chivalrous. Whenever he encountered injustice, he would speak out, which offended many wealthy families. However, the wealthy families were afraid of his family's wealth and power, so they naturally did not dare to do anything, but they did have many complaints about him. "

Hearing Xu Jian's words, Su Yun laughed and asked, "Has he ever bullied men or women?"

Xu Jian shook his head like a rattle and said, "Zhou Zhan hates this kind of thing very much. He made enemies with the wealthy because of this. How could he do such a thing himself?"
