Chapter 901: Cousins
In front of Xu's house, Xu Hao had just dismounted and was talking to his family, when he saw a person coming out of the alley in the distance, he saw him at a glance, and pounced on him with a smile.
"Third master, third master. Ur'er greets you! The man smiled and bowed deeply, not very old, in his twenties.
The family members were more or less disdainful, and Xu Hao also frowned slightly, and said, "What do you look like when you are idle all day long?" Can't find a full-time businessman to do? Even Lan Chun can't hold his head up for you. ”
"Yes, yes." The man's smile remained unchanged and he smiled, "I'm impatient to do the next person's business." Uncle, recently a friend wants to go to sea to do a big deal, you can reward me with a few taels of silver, I plan to follow him out to have a look, but also in the face of my parents. ”
Xu Hao is helpless, this person's name is Xu Wu, Lan Chun's own brother, his father Xu Wu died in the north with him, and his mother passed away in less than a few years.
But Xu Wu is a famous outstretched general, stiff by nature, not marrying a daughter-in-law to gamble outside all the year round, and the gold and silver mountains are not enough for him to lose.
After a long time, except for Xu Hao, even his sister was unwilling to help him, and Xu Wu was afraid of Xu Hao, so he didn't dare to enter the mansion when he was free. Today, I probably think Xu Hao is in a good mood, and he has the courage to ask for money.
There are motivated people in the family who are not angry, Xu Hao can't control it, and he doesn't bother to talk about those big truths anymore, so he instructed: "Give him two hundred taels of silver, if you gamble again, don't come to pester me in the future." ”
"Don't worry, I will definitely mix up my personal appearance and not embarrass my uncle." Xu Wu's chest snapped, and he followed Li Dong to the account room with a smile.
Mu Yun said: "You don't have to deal with him, now even Shuntianfu has a headache." Causing trouble all day long, being locked up in prison, he fell into a safe place and was well fed. ”
Xu Hao smiled bitterly: "What's the way?" If he doesn't seek to be motivated, no one can help it. ”
Mu Yun said: "Wait, in less than ten days, two hundred taels of silver will be scattered." ”
Xu Hao said: "It is time to promote people's livelihood, and we can't ignore it." Go home, you all go home, I'm not going out tonight. ”
Saying that Xu Wu got two hundred taels, he immediately ran to the Qinhuai River to eat flowers and wine, and liked to say a few big words at the banquet. For example, how decent is in the Xu family, Xu Sanye is his own uncle Yunyun, and he always rejects others cleanly. Sometimes he knows that he is saying something bad, and he will roll up and go away, and tomorrow he will change places and continue to brag about himself, so people call him nonsense.
Less than two days later, he came out of the gambling den with one hand on his arm and frowned. Obviously, he lost the essence of the light, and walked towards the west exit of the goldfish alley where Lehu was gathered.
It was a new profession in the past two years, because he brought back a shipload of rubber from America. The first thing Xu Hao did was to apply it to the wheels, although there was no airbag inside, but with the rubber-wrapped wooden wheels, the speed increased a lot. It's also a lot lighter.
Just like food crops, Xu Hao did not have the slightest idea of seeking personal interests for himself, and promoted them all for free. And told Jinyiwei to crack down on anyone who wanted to hoard Juqi.
As long as it costs a sum of money, ordinary people can buy a car from the supervisor, and then make a living by pulling the car, which also gave birth to the first batch of traffic police in the Ming Dynasty, in short, the five cities are responsible for maintaining traffic, the most basic traffic rules have been formulated, after all, there are many cars, many horses, and many disputes, such as congestion, have also increased.
The one who pulled the cart ran fast to the east, and Xu Wu never walked with eyes, and the one who pulled the cart couldn't dodge, and just hit it.
"Ahh Xu Wu was unlucky to cushion the bottom, and the one pulling the cart was lying on him, and the two of them were struggling.
What's even more unfortunate is the guest in the car, there is a Erlang leg in front of him, and the new thing is a rickshaw, and the car is more beautiful! Looking up in anticipation, he was very proud, and suddenly the car trembled, and his whole person flew out, falling from the sky and smashing on the two people.
Xu Wu and the person pulling the cart just struggled to get up, and they were smashed by him in a daze, and they fell down again and again, and the passers-by laughed when they saw this.
Xu Wu at the bottom couldn't stand the weight on his body, and he fought hard, and the bones of the same cart in the car rolled off his back.
Xu Wu staggered to his feet, didn't say a word, and stared at the two of them. The two of them got up and glared at him, and the three of them didn't say a word, just like that, and the others became more and more amused when they saw it.
The three of them were stunned, shook their heads in the car, jumped in the car and shouted, "Let's go." ”
Xu Wu stepped forward and grabbed him, and sneered: "It's very early, your mother, and then bump into it!" ”
The person in the car reached out to push him, but Xu Wu had practiced martial arts since he was a child, and his basic skills were solid, so he didn't move, and grabbed the placket of the car with his backhand, "Want to go?" Let's go to the tea shop and talk. ”
Carrying a chicken, he slipped up the car, scared the face of the car, and drew circles in the air with one hand, "How can this be reasonable, how can this be reasonable!" You are really my master's so-called brave and ruthless person who disdains teaching. ”
Passers-by saw a nerd entangled by a scoundrel, and became more and more funny, this is Xiucai meeting soldiers, and it is unclear whether it is reasonable.
At the feet of the Son of Heaven, pedantic scholars like Wu Siwen were everywhere, and those in the car were dragged by Xu Wu, and said angrily to the people who were watching the excitement: "There are fighters in the neighborhood, and they go to save them with a crown." If you see it and don't save it, you snicker beside it, like the Qin people who look at the more people who are fat and barren, it can also be said to be vain, and it can also be said to be vain. Feed! You shrew, let me go. ”
Coincidentally, the place of the incident was not far from Shen Qing'er's residence, the painting boat was moored on the shore, and Widow Sun bought a yard near Goldfish Hutong.
The Shen family hired six or seven people, and there was a miscellaneous man named Liu San, who was a hereditary turtle slave in Yangzhou, who had been mixed in the Jinling Qinglou for several years, and was a well-known ghost man.
Widow Shen felt that he was familiar with Jinling, and he was a fellow villager, and he had a care in other places, so he invited a family.
Liu San has a natural ability, no matter who it is, as long as it is not a man, regardless of age, beauty or ugliness, he can make women happy. And Widow Shen is only about forty years old, and she has no widowhood mentality, seeing that Liu San is interesting and good-looking, she was hooked up unconsciously.
After Liu San's efforts to serve for half a month, the beautiful widow Sun couldn't leave him for a day, and was soon promoted from a miscellaneous worker to a partner, and then from a partner to an accountant, and from a bookkeeper to a second housekeeper. It is also the famous Shen Qing'er who has made a lot of money, and she needs more people.
Liu San's position is getting bigger and bigger every day, and things are less than one day by day, except for the usual roll call at night, fooling around outside all day long.
The three sects and nine streamers outside think that he will become Shen Qing'er's future head sooner or later, with the flattery of everyone, some want to make him money, some want to eat and drink, and some ask him to recommend a helper, all kinds of people.
Today he had lunch and had nothing to do, and when he saw Widow Shen taking a nap, he quietly changed into a satin robe, walked out of the courtyard with his chest up, and walked all the way along the market.
Liu San swallowed melon seeds, saw the silver building in the area of Guanyin Temple, and said that the gold ring and gold bracelet are nothing, and asked Mrs. Sun to go, how many do I want, I am afraid that I will not give it to me?
When he saw the newly opened clothing shop, he said in his heart: "Silver fox robe, what is the mink cloak?" I asked the old woman to give it to me, dare not give it? “
While walking and planning, Liu San walked south, passing by the teahouse and seeing many people outside, laughing from time to time, he walked in sideways.
I saw the scholar crying, pointing to a man and saying, "It's just a fool." Yu Fang looks at it according to the shame and is humiliated by the mud. He is in danger but does not hold it, he does not support it, and he is against Sui. It is inevitable that nothing will be done. If you can't save people, Mr. will do it. ”
The onlookers burst into laughter again, and Xu Wu sneered. Liu San knew Wuda Fool, the two of them were very familiar with each other, and they knew that they were taking the opportunity to slander people again.
Suddenly, Liu San looked at the nerd, and his heart moved, thinking that this is not his cousin Li Zhongnan? How did he get into Beijing?
hurriedly stood up and said to Xu Wu: "You are doing something wrong again." ”
Xu Wu smiled: "I'm so poor that I panicked, tease this nerd." ”
It turned out that Xu Wu, the general who reached out, took a lot of money from Liu San, and Liu San had a lot of insight and a bold shot, not to mention Xu Wu's identity, he was willing to borrow without an identity, so he could eat in the circle.
"This is my cousin." Liu San said, then took out two taels of silver from his body and threw it at Xu Wu, "We have a good relationship, I will help you as much as I do on weekdays, but I can't feed the cat." ”
The scholar also recognized his cousin, who he hadn't seen for many years, and was overjoyed, and shouted: "Dog, you give a comment, this person is really insulting." ”
"Money is Sven." Xu Wu got the silver, where is the time here, and walked away with his feet up.
Liu San pulled Li Zhongnan out, came to the restaurant not far away, made a bowl of tea, and whispered: "Cousin, why don't you ignore my face and call me by my nickname in front of people." Your brother is now relying on his family heirloom skills, and he has mixed to a position that is only one level worse than a prostitute-guest, who is not called a brother and brother? But you bark like a dog. ”
Li Zhongnan said: "A gentleman, a man with lofty ideals, how can you change your name when your parents give you?" ”
Without waiting for him to finish, Liu Sandan said painfully: "Come on, don't drop the text, my flesh is numb." ”
Li Zhongnan nodded, daring that he had deliberately been full of words before, so as to get rid of the entanglement, and asked, "One level worse than a prostitute?" What kind of development is that? ”
Liu San said proudly: "You don't know that the guests I have there are all dignitaries and celebrities, and they are one level worse than them, and I am also an official." ”
Li Zhongnan said with a smile: "According to what you say, you won't become the prime minister in the kiln." ”
Liu Sanzheng said: "It seems that you have just entered Beijing, you don't understand anything, you are still the nasty life of Yangzhou?" Can those landlords compare to me? I'm also living a decent life without any white dings now, by the way, why did you enter Beijing for no reason? Could it be that he was admitted to the lifting of people? ”
Li Zhongnan said awkwardly: "I'm ashamed to say that I didn't succeed in my studies, so I went to a college in another province, and after a year as a student of law and politics, I finally had the qualifications to be a criminal official, and I came to the Criminal Department to receive an appointment."
