In life, there are always desires and demands, joys and sorrows.

This is not a derogatory meaning, it is precisely because there is desire-hope and pursuit, there is joy, anger and sorrow, there is no desire and no desire that is a fairy, and there is no god in this world.

Some people are greedy for power, some people are greedy for money, this is the most normal thing in the world, and the most common, and the easiest thing for ordinary people to satisfy, is the appetite.

People live in the world, they are always inseparable from eating, drinking, and Lazar, and eating is always the first place, whether it is chicken, duck, fish, or whole grains, including seasoned oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, all of which are indispensable.

When Yang Huairen saw that the children were so poor that they couldn't even afford to wear clothes, he knew what the village had become in tatters.

The people of the village do not have much thirst for power or wealth, it is too far away, and the most basic survival requirements before them are food and clothing.

Yang Huairen didn't prepare clothes for this trip, but he prepared some food, and he had already prepared in case he met a shipbuilder, so he would be entertained with good wine and food, and he would sit down and talk.

Judging from the time he has been in contact with Lao Daitou, Lao Daitou is not a person who is afraid of things, and he has a hard bone, a strange old man with a stubborn donkey temper.

Yang Huairen naturally wanted to have the opportunity to have a good chat with Lao Daitou about the shipyard and shipbuilding, but everyone had just met, and they didn't know each other, let alone trust.

Yang Huairen didn't want to scare people by suddenly revealing his identity, so it seemed to be difficult to have a good conversation with an old man.

So Yang Huairen changed his strategy, there is a saying, to make the stubborn donkey obedient, you have to follow the hair, coax him to take the initiative to work for you, if you pull out the temper against the hair, it will not be able to pull back the nine cows.

From the children's eyes looking at the food, it is obvious that they have a desire for exquisite food, and the rich Jiangnan is not all rich, but there are more people living a good life, and there are many poor people.

Yang Huairen was a little strange when he saw the old Dai Tou's house, ordinary people built houses with eight feet high beams, and rich people only built nine or ten feet high.

But the old Dai Tou's house is ten feet long, and it is a brick house, and it costs a lot of money to build a brick house in such a remote place.

But it's a pity that the house is obviously very old, and it is slightly dilapidated under the disrepair, and it can be guessed that this village was once very wealthy, but in the last ten years, it has lost its prosperity.

The dilapidated shipyard and dilapidated village reminded Yang Huairen of the prosperity of the past, where the shipyard was full of people day and night, and the people in the village were rich and happy.

But all of this has turned into a void in time.

More than ten years ago, the royal ban on the sea was abolished, and the full-scale maritime trade arose, and under the demand, private shipyards sprung up, constantly poaching craftsmen from the government-run shipyards, and the officials of Li & Fung Jian ignored them, so that the place was gradually abandoned.

Lao Daitou should be a group of old people who choose to stay and stick to it, the reason why they didn't leave is not because they don't want to, but because they look at the orphans, widows, old, weak, sick and disabled in the village, and they are reluctant to leave them to find a way to survive.

But everyone who had some ability left the village, and now all that is left are the old people like Lao Daitou, and the children who have lost their parents.

Yang Huairen felt that since this kind of thing had happened, even if it wasn't for the purpose of shipbuilding, he couldn't watch this place continue to fall, those children were really pitiful.

Although the method is a bit tricky, it has played a good role, and Lao Daitou smelled the aroma of Suiyuanchun's wine, and began to be a little confused.

Yang Huairen could see from his expression that this was an old man who was addicted to alcohol, but no, it was strange that the old man who could drink radish strips and small salted fish as snacks and dishes was not a drunkard.

Yang Huairen deliberately drank the wine very exaggeratedly, and the sound of smashing his mouth was also big, so he deliberately did it for Lao Daitou to see.

Lao Dai looked at Yang Huairen's enjoyment, smelled the irresistible aroma of wine, and finally couldn't help but ask, "This little official, what kind of wine are you eating?" ”

Yang Huairen knew that he was asking knowingly, and then smiled, "Have you ever heard of Suiyuan Spring Wine in Tokyo?" ”

The old face of the old Dai finally had a smile, "Sui Yuanchun, I have heard that the largest restaurant in Tongzhou City sells it, and I heard that a pot costs a consistent price." ”

This price is twice as high as the 500 Wen a pot sold in Suiyuan, Yang Huairen was surprised, but also quickly figured it out, people buy wine from Tokyo City and then transfer it to Jiangnan, if they don't double the price and sell it, then they are not businessmen.

He then smiled, "Since the old man knows it, he must have drunk it." ”

Old Dai Tou shook his head embarrassedly, "This...... Not really, it's too expensive for me to afford. ”

Yang Huairen said that Lao Daitou was addicted to alcohol, but he could be regarded as talking to him, so he handed the wine bowl in his hand forward, "Why don't you ask my uncle to taste it?" ”

"It's not good......"

Lao Dai said yes, but his body was very loyal to his inner thoughts, and he had already stood up, looking like he was going to walk over to Yang Huairen to pick up the bowl of wine.

At this time, his wife slapped him on the hand and scolded, "You are an old immortal and skinless and faceless, and you will take it if you are asked to do so?" ”

Lao Daitou's face immediately turned red like a monkey's buttocks, and he didn't stand or sit, so he had to complain about his wife on the spot, "You dead old woman, what do you know?" ”

The old woman glared at him, reached out and pinched Lao Daitou's thigh, Lao Daitou was in pain, and it was difficult to scream in front of many descendants, so she had to sit back and secretly rub her palm on her thigh.

The old couple quarreled very interestingly, and eunuchs like Cen Xiaonian almost laughed out loud when they saw it, Yang Huairen stood up, carried a jar of wine and walked into the courtyard of Lao Daitou's house.

He first gave the old couple a salute, and then confessed, "The kid has no intention and caused trouble for the old man, and this jar of wine will be used as a kid to make amends to the two." ”

After saying that, he put the wine jar on their small square table, and then withdrew.

Looking at the wine jar on the table, the old man and the old lady were confused, and the old Dai Tou naturally had a wine worm attack in his stomach, and he couldn't wait to open the wine seal immediately to taste what the legendary Suiyuan Spring wine tasted like.

But looking at the old woman's fierce gaze, she didn't dare to touch the wine jar.

At this time, Yang Huairen gave all the remaining snacks to the children, and was ready to pack up and leave.

This trick really worked, and the old Dai Tou said, "Petty official, please stay!" ”
