Chapter 25: Where is my hometown?

When Xiao Yat was bending his bow and shooting arrows on the mountain, Liang Xiaoyu's hand cramped while counting money in the restaurant below the mountain; The business of Wuwu Juju is surprisingly good, and a large amount of money comes in every day, and he can only sleep for two hours a day at most; The trembling of his hands never stopped, and now he has developed a habit of not counting the money he earns every day, and he can't sleep, looking at the piles of copper coins piled up in his bedroom, and then piled up in the wings, Liang Xiaoyu's face is also cramping with laughter......

When he was only one step away from Parkinson's disease, a caravan arrived and rescued him from the pile of countless copper coins; This is a large-scale caravan composed of a large number of horses, vehicles, and bodyguards, and each car is inserted with a "beam" word to recognize the flag, with this flag, in Youzhou, and even the entire Hebei, this caravan can be unimpeded, this is the domineering of the Liang family of Jixian County, the first wealthy merchant in Youzhou!

And the leader of this caravan is the old butler of the Liang family-Cui Laifu; The old housekeeper Cui is already close to his sixtieth birthday, and he is the old man who started with the head of the family, Liang Wanwan; For decades, he has been loyal to the Liang family and has deep trust in the head of the family, so he handed over the business of selling bulk goods to him; Passing by the Crouching Tiger Pavilion this time, Cui Laifu suddenly remembered that there was a Ninth Young Master who didn't hurt his grandmother and didn't love his uncle who was running a tavern with a dismal business.

According to the place in his memory, Steward Cui came to the east end of the town, and a prosperous and beautifully decorated restaurant appeared in front of him; Looking left and right, "That's right, it's here!" What about the original Liang family tavern? Could it be that the Ninth Young Master did not manage well and closed down the tavern? This poor child! ”

Since he came, he had to find the whereabouts of the Ninth Young Master, so as soon as Old Steward Cui waved his old but still powerful hand, the entire caravan immediately stopped, "Get off the horse and make corrections, replenish grain and grass!" ”

"No! ……”

With a call, the huge caravan immediately began to rest, and all the men performed their duties, although there were many people and horses, but they were not chaotic, which showed that the old butler was well trained on weekdays.

Following the wafting aroma of wine all over the street, the old housekeeper saw the huge wine guise at a glance, "Three bowls are not the river?" With such a big breath, our Liang family's best wine didn't dare to boast about such a Haikou, and a trace of curiosity made the old housekeeper decide to take a look. ”

Walking down the wooden ladder to the door of the restaurant, I was immediately attracted by the couplet written by Xiao Yi himself:

Drunk and big,

The sun and the moon are long in the pot.

What an apt couplet, it means a lot! The old housekeeper who walked south and north was well-informed, so he could naturally see that it was extraordinary, and when he strode into the restaurant, he saw at a glance that the cramping man who was counting money at the counter was not the ninth young master he was worried about!

The current Liang Xiaoyu is not what it used to be, a purple robe made of fine silk, a belt of gold silk around his waist, boots with gold buttons on his feet, a gold collar around his neck, a gold crown on his head, and even the abacus used to settle accounts in his hand is made of pure gold, and the whole person is almost engraved with five big characters on the door of his head--- Brother is rich!

If it weren't for the two big teeth he was missing from his mouth, the old housekeeper would almost not recognize him, what kind of carp turned over, it was simply a whale turned over!

There is also a couplet on both sides of the counter behind Liang Xiaoyu:

Shanglian: Live for money, die for money! Running for money for a lifetime!

Downlink: Eat money and lose, and make money! Life and death are on money!

Horizontal batch: No money, no way!

People have a strong sense of crisis, if a person is always hungry when he is a child, then even if he is worth hundreds of millions when he grows up, he will be particularly sensitive to food, and he must put food in a place where he can see in order to feel at ease. Liang Xiaoyu is the same, he is poor and afraid, and now he has to hold the gold every day to sleep, all the clothes on his body are inlaid with gold, the dishes and chopsticks for eating are all replaced with gold, and even the pillow for sleeping is stuffed with gold nuggets......

Looking at the nouveau riche like the Ninth Young Master in front of him, looking at the luxuriously decorated restaurant in front of him, the old housekeeper felt that his worldview was about to collapse, everything was so incredible, I remember the last time I came, the Ninth Young Master was still squatting at the door of the tavern with his sleeves all day long......

Seeing the arrival of the old housekeeper Cui Laifu, Liang Xiaoyu was also very happy, he was not treated well since he was a child, and the old housekeeper at home has always been kind to him, several times, if it wasn't for the help of the old housekeeper, he would have been killed by those wolf-like brothers.

Pulled the old housekeeper directly into a private room, Liang Xiaoyu didn't give any explanation, but personally got a bowl of 'Wuwu Wine' and handed it over.

After taking the wine, the old housekeeper raised his nose and smelled it, he who has been dealing with wine all the year round, immediately felt that this wine was extraordinary, and after tasting it, he was even more surprised that his mouth could be swallowed as big as four eggs. At this time, Liang Xiaoyu began to slowly tell what happened since he met Xiao Yi......

The old housekeeper left again, went back to his hometown in Jixian County on the road, and took dozens of jars of 'Wuwu Wine' given by the Ninth Young Master, saying that he was going back to give the head of the family Liang Million to taste; on the way back, the old housekeeper thought silently: "Good luck is a person's greatest ability, and luck has a name - Destiny!" The Ninth Young Master has the help of nobles, just like a little carp that has to meet the wind and clouds, and gradually has the potential to turn into a dragon, this Liang family will probably have to be decided by the Ninth Young Master in the future......"

…………………………

In the blink of an eye, it was the end of the year, Liang Da's shopkeeper gave all the restaurant guys a holiday, and each person received a big red envelope, in a thousand thanks, they went home to reunite with their relatives for the New Year, the original and full of people "Wushouju" is now left with three people, Ma Liu practiced guns in the snow outside, and saw that the gun flowers were denser than the snowflakes flying in the sky, like a flying silver dragon, and the murderous atmosphere between the moves, and Xiao Yi and Liang Xiaoyu were sitting in the worry-free house together to take stock of the harvest in the past few months.

Three people, one has a home to return to, one has a broken family, and the last one doesn't know where his home is......

said that it was two people to check the accounts, but in fact, Liang Xiaoyu was holding the account book alone, holding the big gold abacus and burying his head in hard calculations, there were many numbers on the thick account book, and he let his ten little short fingers quickly dial the beads, which was still very difficult, and Xiao Yi was sitting on the Taishi chair designed by himself, wearing a wolf skin, holding a wine glass, and a small leg of lamb roasted on the charcoal fire in front of him......

Speaking of this wolf skin, it was the one that was bitten to death by Xiao Yi, the black wolf was the wolf king in the nearby mountains, and often took the wolves down the mountain to harm people and animals, so the nearby hunters surrounded and suppressed the wolves for several months, and after paying the price of more than a dozen lives, they were finally shot and killed.

Every time he touches the black wolf's skin, Xiao Yat can always relive the passion of life and death, and under the stimulation of this passion, Xiao Yat will feel that he is full of strength, and the whole person will become more fierce and stronger! Life and death are the greatest spurs for people!

Now Xiao Yi is also quite wealthy, but he never has money on him, every time he buys and checks out, he takes out a pen and paper, brushes a little ghost and paints some secret words that only he and Liang Xiaoyu can read, and then the businessmen can take this piece of paper and go to the 'Worry-free House' to exchange it for real money!

Later, seeing that it was convenient to settle accounts with paper, many businessmen followed suit, and a remittance financial system centered on 'worry-free residence' slowly appeared, which made Liang Xiaoyu bow to Xiao Yat again, because he really couldn't understand why Xiao Yat could exchange a large number of goods with a piece of paper with his own signature.

Seeing that it took two full hours for the shopkeeper Liang to finish the accounts, he was about to review it a second time...... In order to avoid mistakes in the accounts, the businessman often double-checks it several times, or uses several bookkeepers to calculate the same account at the same time.

Xiao Yi snatched the ledger, picked up the pen and paper, and began to scribble on the paper with some strange symbols, the pages of the ledger turned quickly, and after a stick of incense, he wrote the final result and threw it on Liang Xiaoyu, and strode out of the restaurant.

And the shopkeeper Liang took the answer thrown by Xiao Yi and compared it with the one he had just calculated in two hours, it was exactly the same, looking at the back of walking out of the restaurant, and then looking at the account book in his hand, "Maybe it......'s not impossible to go up the mountain to become a Taoist monk."

Sitting at the highest point of the Crouching Tiger Pavilion, admiring the lights of thousands of homes on New Year's Eve, "The people around me are either at home for the holiday, or they can't go home for the time being, only themselves, although the world is big, where is my hometown?" ”

When the moon rose, a strange song came from the roof of the "No Worries" restaurant:

Don't ask me where I'm from

My hometown is far away

Why wandering

Wandering Far ......"
