Chapter 859 Leaving Ganzhou
When Mr. Shen heard Sun Shan praising his little grandson, he smiled happily.
Mr. Sun has a good vision. He knows that his eldest grandson is a handsome man and a rare talent.
The daughter-in-law has no good qualities at all, the only good thing about her is that she gave birth to three smart grandchildren for the Shen family.
Old Master Shen really wanted to tell Sun Shan that the second and third grandsons who stayed at home were just as good boys as the eldest grandson, picked out of a million.
Old Master Shen was delighted, but he waved his hands and said, "Master Sun, no, no, my eldest grandson is not worthy of your praise."
Sun Shan kept smiling, looked at Master Shen again, and said with a smile: "I liked Brother Shen's kid the first time I saw him. He will definitely have a bright future."
No matter whether one is promising or not, people like to hear good words, and Sun Shan is also willing to waste his time saying a few good words.
After all, I ate a meal with the short and fat Shen, so I have to give something back.
After hearing this, the short and fat Shen smiled happily, "Master Sun, I'm telling you the truth. Don't look at my kid's young age, he's a good businessman, better than me and my father. I can't even calculate as well as he can. Oh, I'm relieved now that my family has an heir."
Sun Shan nodded repeatedly and said, "Brother Shen, you are right. Good grandfathers and good fathers are not as good as good descendants. The disciple is better than the master, and each generation is stronger than the previous one. This is the real good. I think your son will definitely make Shen's Business bigger and stronger in the future."
Sun Shan's flattering words made Mr. Shen and the short and fat Shen very happy, and they laughed non-stop.
Young Master Shen frowned. This Lord Sun's words were too exaggerated, and it sounded a bit like he was trying to coax people.
As an official, shouldn't you disdain dealing with merchants?
It is normal to look down on these dentists, but it is abnormal to say good things about them.
Aren’t the officials very cold and arrogant, disdainful of dealing with merchants like them?
To have any contact with them is like defiling the government.
With his limited life experience, Young Master Shen acted like an idiot even to a minor official, let alone an official.
Young Master Shen thought Sun Shan was a liar, completely different from the impression he had of the county magistrate.
However, Sun Shan lived in the post station and wore the clothes of a Jinshi, so he did not dare to doubt.
In broad daylight, Sun Shan was wearing this. If it was fake, he was really too bold.
At this time, someone from the Li family of the inn next door came in and said, "Sir Sun, the boat is ready."
What this means is that those who want to say goodbye should say goodbye as soon as possible, it's time to set off.
Gui Ge'er responded hastily: "Brother, we are ready and will be here soon."
Sun Dingnan and Gui Ge'er carried the luggage.
Sun Shan bowed and said, "Mr. Shen, Brother Shen, the time has come. I should set off."
Mr. Shen wanted to hear more praise from Sun Shan. Sun Shan spoke so nicely that he laughed out loud and was in a good mood.
Seeing Sun Shan preparing to leave, he quickly said, "Master Sun, it is truly a great fate that you and my son have met by chance."
The short and fat Shen said proudly, "Father, of course. I first met Lord Sun three years ago. I never thought I would meet Lord Sun again three years later. I am so happy. Lord Sun, I wish you a safe journey."
Sun Shan thanked him.
When Mr. Shen heard the Li family calling Sun Shan "Mr. Sun", he was sure that the person in front of him was a senior official who was so real that even pearls were not there.
He never expected that his lustful, silly and generous son would actually make friends with a high-ranking official. Could it be that their Shen family is on the verge of becoming prosperous?
Although Lord Sun is not an official in Ganzhou, it is said that all officials know each other. If something urgent really happens, Lord Sun may be able to help.
The most important thing for them as businessmen is to make useful friends.
Apparently, Sun Shan was considered the most useful person in Mr. Shen's eyes.
How could the Shen family know any high-ranking official?
Not to mention that the seventh-rank county magistrate is not an official, even a simple minor clerk can make them whisper to each other.
Old Master Shen said hurriedly: "I heard that Lord Sun had just graduated from high school and returned home with honors, and happened to pass by Ganzhou City."
Sun Shan nodded and said honestly, "Mr. Shen, I am honored to be on the list by your grace. My family is waiting for me to go back and learn more about the details."
Mr. Shen said repeatedly: "Yes, Mr. Sun's family must be looking forward to his return home. I would like to wish Mr. Sun a safe journey and a bright future."
Sun Shan smiled and said, "Thank you."
Old Master Shen pulled out a piece of red paper from his pocket, handed it to Sun Shan and said, "Master Sun, congratulations. This is a small gift from the old man. Don't mind it."
Sun Shan really didn't mean to take advantage of the situation, and at the beginning he didn't tell the short and fat Shen that he had graduated from high school.
It was only when he met Manager Li that the short and fat Shen found out about it passively.
Sun Shan knew that once his identity was exposed, Shen the short and fat would have to give him a red envelope.
But I didn’t expect that the short and fat Shen would bring his father and son to see him off.
Naturally, Mr. Shen is responsible for giving the gifts.
Sun Shan pushed and gave way three times again, but finally got the prize.
Sun Shan gave the three people a purse in return and said with a smile, "You can also share in the good fortune."
After Sun Shan said this, the three generations of the Shen family quickly took the purse and expressed their gratitude.
The Shen family always sent Sun Shan to the dock, and the one with the deepest affection was the short and fat Shen.
I don't know whether he is obsessed with Sun Shan's erhu music or is obsessed with Sun Shan's official status.
Reluctantly, he said, "Lord Sun, please come to Ganzhou when you have time, and when you get there, you must come to me to reminisce about the past."
After a pause, he continued, "Lord Sun, if I go to Huguang, I will definitely find a way to find you to reminisce about the past."
Then he added: "Lord Sun, I believe you must be a good official. You are so good to the porters, and you will be so good to the people. You will definitely be able to work for the welfare of the people."
Sun Shan was stunned. It was the first time he heard such passionate and kind words.
With Shen the Short and Fat Man's words, Sun Shan became more confident in being a good local official.
The weather was hot, and Sun Shan's heart was also hot. He nodded solemnly: "Brother Shen, I will keep your words in mind. Thank you for your encouragement."
Shen the short and fat can speak Mandarin, so he must have been educated.
Like a scholar, he handed Sun Shan a willow branch and said reluctantly, "Master Sun, take care of yourself."
Sun Shan took the willow branch, thought for a moment and said, "I have a fellow magistrate in Yuzhang. Although he is not in Ganzhou, if there is anything important, I can go to him. He and I are good friends."
Sun Shan informed Peng Damu of his personal information, hoping that if there was any problem, Peng Damu might be able to help.
Of course Sun Shan was not sure either, but it was always better to have hope than despair.
Mr. Shen and Mr. Shen looked at each other and were overjoyed.
Although Lord Sun’s classmate is not around, he is still an official. If the Shen family encounters desperate situations, they will grab at any straw.
Sun Shan left them a glimmer of hope.
Mr. Shen thanked him solemnly: "Master Sun, I cannot thank you enough for your kindness."
