。 "Good!" All the grain merchants responded one after another, because they had something in their hearts, and they dispersed early.

Separated from Liu Xiandi, Brother Zhang returned to the hotel where he was staying, and said to his attendant, "Have you been to the shopkeeper of Zhou Grain Merchant?" ”

"The year before last, the shopkeeper Han got married, and I drank wedding wine." The attendant whispered, "What does the boss mean?" ”

"You go to his house." Brother Zhang took out a stack of treasure money from the page of his boots and said, "Let's see if we can take our grain." ”

"Or give him a gift?" The attendant's eyes widened.

"Nonsense." Brother Zhang sighed and said: "It's only the first day, there are so many people, there will definitely be more tomorrow, who will not give it to whom when the time comes?" It's even more torn. It's better to break the money and settle the bag as soon as possible. ”

"Yes." The attendant went out with the ticket, and half an hour later, he came back with the money: "He didn't go home, he lived in the store." ”

"Then go knock on the store." Brother Zhang had already drilled into the bed, and when he heard this, he scolded: "Why are you so dead-eyed? ”

"Don't mention it." The attendant said depressedly: "You didn't go when you were a child, but you couldn't knock on the door no matter how you knocked, and you ran into several peers ......."

"Also a gift-giver?"

"yes." The attendant nodded and said depressedly.

"Alas," Brother Zhang sighed, "It's not stupid, it seems that tomorrow will not be easy......"

This night, Brother Zhang spread pancakes like a sleepless night, and it was easy to survive until the sky was bright, so he got up and washed his face indiscriminately, ate something, and went straight to Zhou's grain store.

He thought he had come early enough, but when he arrived at the door of the grain store, he saw that several of his peers had already arrived first.

"Morning, everybody." Brother Zhang hurriedly squeezed out a dry smile and said, "It's quite cold this morning." ”

"Morning, you're old." Everyone also smiled reluctantly: "I don't know when to open the door, hurry up and go in to warm up." ”

"Just call it away." Brother Zhang said: "I'm not here to buy food, and I'm still subject to his rules?" ”

"I called, but no one answered." Everyone smiled bitterly: "What do you say is going on, it's become that we are begging them to buy food!" ”

"Yes," someone said angrily, "they have always begged us, why did we beg them?" ”

"Hey, hey." Brother Zhang smiled: "Who let us covet high prices?" ”

"Alas, you can't eat a fat man in one bite, so why bother?" The man said angrily: "If he pushes back again, he simply won't sell it and go home for the New Year!" ”

"That's it!" Everyone chimed in.

Brother Zhang also nodded, but sneered in his heart, it would be strange if any of you were willing to leave. It's true that they are looking forward to others leaving!

The crowd waited outside the store with the wrong heart, and more and more grain merchants came, and when they arrived, they did not see the paving board unloaded, and the grain merchants angrily slapped the paving board and shouted: "Open the door!" It caused people on the street to stop and watch.

Finally, in the earth-shattering sound of slamming the door, a piece of paving was unloaded, revealing the sleepy-eyed face of the shopkeeper Han. He bowed to the grain merchants and apologized again and again: "I didn't expect you to come so early, I'm really sorry!" ”

"It's been so long to slam the door before you hear it!"

"Alas, I am asleep like a dead pig, and I can't hear a cannon in my ear." The shopkeeper removed the door panel and let the grain merchants into the store, "It's all frozen, come in and warm up." ”

Judging whether one side is strong or weak is not based on whose voice is loud and angry, but by their reaction to the lame reason......

The grain merchants poured into the store, filling the front hall to the brim. The shopkeeper hurriedly made tea, and greeted everyone with cold and warmth.

Patiently dealt with him for a few words, and finally said in a hurry: "Shopkeeper Han, have you asked your owner, what did he say?!" ”

"Alas, don't mention it, I was scolded by the owner." The shopkeeper said with a depressed face: "But I should also scold, I didn't believe the bosses, so I came up with such a bad idea of 'casting a wide net'." I thought it would be good to be able to come halfway, but I didn't expect all the bosses to be so old-fashioned and enthusiastic, and they all came! ”

"Could it be that Zhou Yang's letter was written by you?" A lot of people went hairy on the spot.

"Of course not, but as long as I find a few owners of ancient roads, I didn't make it known to everyone." Shopkeeper Han sighed and said: "I have a big problem for the owner, you are all friends and benefactors, and it is not appropriate not to buy anyone's, so the owner has to think carefully about whether to buy it in the order of first come, first served, or buy a part of each person, or smash the pot and sell the iron to buy it all." ”

"Of course I bought them all." Immediately someone shouted: "No one will be offended in this way." ”

"If you buy them all, you will definitely not be able to sell them all, and the owner will not have so much money if he smashes the pot and sells iron." Shopkeeper Han spread his hands and said sincerely: "Please wait for another day, tomorrow, there will be a letter tomorrow." ”

"Why wait until tomorrow!" The grain merchants were not happy and said: "If you stop at the dock for one day, you will have to pay one day's berth money, as well as the man's labor and the loss of grain, who is responsible for this loss." ”

"Because of the rules of the county's yamen, only Shen Shi can visit the prison." Shopkeeper Han smiled bitterly: "This time I must come out with a charter!" ”

The bosses looked at each other, do they have to wait another day?

At this time, people had already come to buy food, and when they came in, they saw the good guys, and the house was full of people. He asked carefully, "Shopkeeper Han, is it open?" ”

"It's open, it's open." Shopkeeper Han bowed and said, "I'm sorry everyone, a few guys in the store went out to deliver letters, and the one who stayed behind died the day before yesterday." Alas, I'm left alone. ”

"What kind of grain to sell, solve this stubble first," the grain merchants said dissatisfiedly: "Let him go to another house to buy it!" ”

"This, okay......" Shopkeeper Han had no choice but to apologize to the customer: "Go to the Qian family grain store and buy it, sorry, sorry." ”

"Okay...... "It's all old acquaintances, and the customer can't say anything, so he leaves empty-handed.

As soon as the shopkeeper Han sat down and was about to continue talking to the grain merchants, another guest came in, so he had to get up again to greet him. Before anyone was sent away, and another one came in, it was called an endless stream, and nothing could be discussed.

Finally, the grain merchants couldn't help but say, "Let's lay the plank!" If you close it for a day and a half, you can't die. ”

"Okay." The shopkeeper Han was good at talking, and immediately put up the plank, and hung out a sign saying 'closed today'. Turning to it, he asked, "What do you think?" I can talk to the owner about ......"

"You have to cut through the mess quickly, and the more people you come, the harder it will be to deal with it." The grain merchant came up with an idea and said: "You quickly accept our people, and then apologize to the people behind you, it's a big deal to pay for the freight, and this matter is over." "That's it, this time you are the Savior, remember not to be so Meng Lang in the future!"

"That's a good idea...... Boss Han's eyes lit up, and then he said with a bitter face: "However, there were many people who came earlier than you yesterday, but they haven't arrived yet." ”

"Who do they blame when they sleep too late?" Seeing that he was a little relieved, the grain merchants immediately rushed up and said, "Let's make a deed!" ”

"I'm not the owner, how can I get the deed?" Boss Han was surrounded by a group of wolf-like grain merchants, looking very helpless.

"Why are you so dead-eyed!" The grain merchants gave him advice: "You draw up a document with us, and you will have something to say about the future later." Then in the afternoon, I will take it to your landlord to sign and draw it, and it will be over. ”

"That's no problem," Boss Han smiled bitterly: "But there is no document signed by the owner, who cares about it." ”

"It's easy." The grain merchants just had no shortage of ways to say, "You can pay us a part of the deposit." ”

"This ......" the shopkeeper Han said: "I don't dare to make decisions about this kind of thing!" ”

"It's a dead eye." The grain merchants scolded: "We can give you a discount, I will spare you a hundred wen for one stone of grain, so that your boss can only say that you can do business, and others can't say anything!" ”

"This ......" Shopkeeper Han looked at the grain merchants and said, "But there is only a little change on the counter, and the money that the boss buys grain is stored in the money bank, and it can only be taken with his seal." ”

"It's just a gag, no matter how much." Everyone has no bottom line, just want to sign the documents quickly.

"Okay, please write down the surname of the boss, and how much grain to sell...... "The shopkeeper Han finally couldn't resist the group of tigers, and went to the counter to write a deed, and after writing a copy, a grain merchant signed and drew a pledge under the seller, and then the shopkeeper Han took out a stack of treasure money from the counter and handed it to him.

The stack of treasure banknotes was tattered, worth a hundred wen to support the sky, and the grain merchants were not too little, so they immediately typed the receipt, put it in their arms, and immediately felt a lot more relieved.

More than a dozen merchants made a deed in turn, but it could not be done in a moment and a half. I had just written two copies inside when I heard a loud slamming of the door outside.

"Closed today!" A grain merchant replied for Han's shopkeeper: "Guests will come again tomorrow." ”

"We don't buy rice, we sell rice." Obviously, there were also grain merchants knocking on the door outside, and there were more people than inside. "Hurry up and open the door, don't think we don't know what you're doing inside!"

"Yes, friends inside, everyone is rich, it's not good to eat alone!" The person outside shouted: "Besides, we have to talk about the first come, first come, we arrived yesterday morning!" ”

The people inside looked at each other, it was inappropriate not to open it, but when it was opened, there would be variables.

"Leave it out there!" Brother Zhang still made up his mind and said: "You help Boss Han, hurry up and finish writing the deed!" ”

The grain merchants hurried to find a brush, and five or six people helped to write the deed together......

Outside I waited for a while, and when I saw that there was no movement inside, I knew that the Taoist family was planning to cook raw rice and cook it before opening it, and all kinds of complex emotions of being fooled, damaged, bullied, and insulted occupied everyone's hearts, and I don't know who took the lead and shouted:

"We can't let them get away with it! Smash the door open! ”

"yes, it's too bullying, slam the door open!" Then there were young and strong ones, and they kicked and bumped into the grain store boards
