Chapter 14: Taking the Lamp (Alliance Leader Plus Change)

Hearing his father's voice, Zhao Hao hurriedly walked out of the house.

The courtyard was much brighter than the house, and I saw Zhao Shouzheng empty-handed, but behind him were two guys carrying large bags and small bags.

"Just leave it here." Zhao Shouzheng beckoned them, and put the bedding, basin, rice noodles, etc., in the hall. He paid the money and sent the two away.

Zhao Hao easily found two candles from a pile of family food, and then, he didn't know what to do.

"Won't you? It's not a boast for my father, but I'll still be able to light the fire. ”

Zhao Shouzheng smiled proudly and took out a paper bag from his sleeve. The paper bag unfolded, and inside was a wooden skewer with a tiger's mouth.

I saw Zhao Shouzheng holding a wooden stick, and then took out the flint, velvet and fire sickle like a trick. Then he took a small piece of flint, pressed it against the indentation of the flint, and then rubbed the flint with a fire sickle a few times, and the sparks that burst out burrowed into the velvet.

Zhao Hao saw that although the velvet was lit, it only turned red, and there was no flame at all. You can't set the candle on fire.

But the next scene surprised him a lot. I saw Zhao Shouzheng biting the wooden skewer with his teeth, approaching the velvet and blowing it gently. The red light brightened for a moment, and then a flame burned on the head of the stick.

It's like, it's like lighting a match. Zhao Hao thought dumbfounded.

Zhao Shouzheng put down the flint, took the burning wooden stick from his mouth, lit the two candles together, and the hall became bright.

He saw that Zhao Hao was still staring at the wooden stick, so he smiled proudly: "The name of this thing is called 'taking the lamp', and it is also called sending candles in the north, which can turn yin fire into yang fire, which is the most convenient." ”

Zhao Hao picked up a 'lamp' and looked at it carefully in the candlelight, and saw that the end of the wooden skewer was wrapped in a little green. When you put it close to your nose, you will find a pungent smell of sulfur.

"Isn't this a match?" Zhao Hao was surprised to put the wooden stick near the candlelight, and saw that the green thing was instantly ignited, emitting a bright light. "That's right......"

It turns out that Daming already has primitive matches, and it seems that if they are improved, they can produce real matches. Zhao Hao is seeing something now, and he is thinking about whether he can use it to make money.

While he was thinking about it, he suddenly smelled a tempting aroma. When I looked back, I saw my father take a plate of dishes out of a food box and place them on a crumbling square table.

Zhao Hao then remembered that he only ate two palm-sized shortbread in a day. Fang Cai was busy and didn't feel hungry, but when he smelled the aroma, he couldn't care about anything else.

"Son, I'm starving." Zhao Shouzheng tore a fat chicken leg and stuffed it into Zhao Hao's mouth. "What are you doing? Eat. ”

"Woo woo......" Zhao Hao nodded again and again, and while feasting, he motioned for Zhao Shouzheng to start too.

Zhao Shouzheng was naturally not polite, and when the dishes and bowls were filled with the square table, he first sandwiched a few pieces of Liuhe pig's head meat to make his belly, and then took out a wine jug from his arms.

Pouring a glass of small wine with body temperature, Zhao Shouzheng took a sip of the white porcelain wine cup, and squinted his eyes when he landed, looking intoxicated.

It took a long time for him to open his eyes, and he said leisurely: "There is no dust in the courtyard, and there is spare time in the empty room." After a long time in the cage, I can return to nature......"

Saying that, Zhao Shouzheng said to Zhao Hao with a happy face: "Son, this room where you can see the stars when you look up is also very interesting." ”

"I'm looking forward to not raining recently...... Zhao Hao muttered, secretly rolled his eyes, and said in his heart If it weren't for Lao Tzu pouting and working for most of the day, would you be able to 'have no dust in the courtyard and have spare time in the empty room?'

You don't even have a place to put your feet!

He was mainly depressed, and Second Master Zhao actually ignored the fruits of his labor, and he didn't praise him well......

Helpless, Zhao Shouzheng is a son-in-law who doesn't care about mundane affairs, and he doesn't live at all in his eyes, so he naturally doesn't know how tiring this job is.

For the sake of this table of food, Zhao Hao didn't care about him, the father and son let go of their bellies and ate their first full meal in days.

After being full of wine and food, they each held their bellies and lay down on both ends of the bed with their feet to their feet.

"Oops, it's going to kill me...... Zhao Hao asked casually while picking his teeth with a toothpick, "Isn't this meal cheap?" ”

"It's okay, four coins of silver ......" Zhao Shouzheng was also picking his teeth, and replied casually.

"What? Four coins of silver! Hearing this, Zhao Hao sat up abruptly and looked at Zhao Shouzheng with wide eyes. So much for one meal?! ”

Today, he went to buy two brooms, a bucket and a wooden basin, and put on a few rags, which cost a total of 30 yuan. Four coins of silver is four hundred wen, enough for urban poor people like them to spend a month.

If you are in the countryside, a landed farmer, the whole family will not be able to spend so much money for half a year.

"Uh, it seems to be a bit doha......" Zhao Shouzheng scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "Isn't today a celebration of housewarming?" In the future, save some flowers. ”

"Okay......" Zhao Hao deflated like a ball, and lay back on the bed. Thinking about whether he could take the financial power from Zhao Shouzheng.

Before the father and son had any income, they could only carefully calculate the dozen or so taels...... Now it should be less than ten taels of silver. Second Master Zhao is used to being extravagant, if he spends a lot, I'm afraid he won't be able to survive for a month.

However, Zhao Hao also knows that now is the era of the father as the son. As a fourteen or fifteen-year-old hairy child, he rashly asked his father for financial power and put it in someone else's house, and he would definitely be served with a big stick. Even if Zhao Shouzheng dotes on himself very much, he is still worried about whether it will hurt his father's self-esteem......

After thinking about it for a long time, he decided to try to fight for it.

"Father's ......"

"Well, what's the matter with my son?" Zhao Shouzheng was about to be confused, and opened his eyes when he heard the words.

"Father will devote himself to studying from tomorrow." Zhao Hao is ready to take advantage of his confusion and win in chaos.

"Well, don't worry, what my father has said, I will naturally count." Zhao Shouzheng nodded.

"What is the second half of the sentence that only reads the books of the sages?" Zhao Haoruo asked casually.

"It's the first half of the sentence, and I don't hear anything outside the window." Zhao Shouzheng sighed and said, "My son still needs to study more." ”

"The father also saw that the son is not the material for reading." Zhao Hao took the opportunity to persuade: "Why don't you leave all the trivial matters at home to me in the future?" ”

"It's so ......" Zhao Shouzheng subconsciously wanted to nod when he heard this, paused, but shook his head and said: "No, although my son is young and old, how can I bear it as a father, you are so young that you pick up the burden of the family?" ”

"As long as my father can lift people, I am willing to be a cow and a horse." Zhao Hao patted his chest and did not pretentiously.

"Being a father is not boasting, on the ups and downs of the list......" Zhao Shouzheng wanted to smile bitterly and depreciate himself.

"I said you can pass the test, you can pass the test!" Zhao Hao interrupted Zhao Shouzheng and slapped his chest loudly.

"Alas, son, ...... for the father" Seeing that he was in his son's heart, his image was so tall, Zhao Shouzheng couldn't help but feel ashamed. But how could he bear to disappoint his son again? swallowed the inferiority complex that had accumulated over the years, and also slapped his chest loudly and said: "As a father, I will give you a test to come back, so that you can enjoy wealth again!" ”

Zhao Hao was moved to applaud warmly, Fang Tu saw the dagger, and secretly changed his concept: "Then it's decided, my father will take care of the accounts when he reads!" ”

"Okay, it's decided!" In the exciting atmosphere, Zhao Shouzheng couldn't help nodding heavily and swore with his son.

When he was done, he felt that something didn't seem right...... Isn't it saying that you want to let yourself go to the test for fame, why did you hand over the financial power in a daze?
