The officer surnamed Chen is named Chen Shou, originally he was suspicious of the letter he received, but after all, he was a veteran who went out with the army and experienced several bloody battles, and he had already seen Dazhen and the enemy's heavenly master, and he was more cautious about such things, and at this moment he had seen the word "Fu", Chen Shou could almost conclude that this thing was a treasure.

What else is there to say, Chen Shou now has a thought in his heart, take down the word "Fu", of course, he didn't dare to forget the places that need to be paid attention to in the letter, but first he had to make sure that he could take this treasure if he could make a move.

Many people came around the young man's stall to watch his goods, some exquisite carvings, and some ornaments, while Chen Shou took a step back and went to the periphery, where several sergeants who came with him teased.

"This person is crazy about money, a blessing word, dare to ask for ten taels of gold, this is enough to buy a good house. ”

"That's it, ten cents is about the same!" "Well, this word does look like a famous pen, and ten cents are still a little cheaper." ”

"That's a hundred, no more. ”

Chen Shou took a few steps closer to them, looked at the stall over there, and then asked his companion in a low voice.

"How much money do you have, how much can you take out?"

"Ah, Brother Chen, what do you want to buy?" "What do you want to buy, you don't have enough money?"

"Yes, I remember that my family asked me to bring something back, but I didn't have enough money. ”

Chen Shou thought about it carefully, and there were about seven or eight taels of silver and half-hanging copper coins on his body, as well as a silver ticket of twenty taels and a silver ticket of ten taels, but the money bank of the silver ticket was not here, and it could not be exchanged for cash in the short term.

Chen Shou is a military uncle in the first place, and secondly, he is usually a good person, so when he wants to help, everyone is willing to check his cash.

"I brought two taels. "I have four taels of silver and more than a hundred cents. ”

"I have one or two too. "Dubo, I have a piece of broken gold here, maybe one or two. ”

A group of people got together, not counting silver tickets, a total of silver can be worth more than forty taels, Chen Shou frowned.

"Not enough, still not enough......"

Others wondered.

"Uncle Chen, isn't that enough?" "Brother Chen, what do you want to buy?"

"You don't really want to buy that lucky word, do you?"

Someone saw Chen Shou's eyes frequently glancing at the stall over there, and couldn't help asking, Chen Shou quickly smiled and shook his head.

"I really like the word Fu, it looks like a famous pen, but ten taels of gold is too much. ”

"It's ......"

"Let's go, let's take a walk around the neighborhood. ”

Chen Shou greeted him, and everyone also walked to other places, but before leaving, Chen Shou approached the stall where there were many fewer people at the moment, and the man who was counting the copper coins over there also raised his head to look at him.

"Master Jun, what is there to see, if you want to buy it, I will give you a cheaper. ”

Chen Shou shook his head and looked at the blessing characters on the basket, looking really like they had been written for a long time.

"The word ......"

"You want to buy this word?"

The young man was stunned, and subconsciously reached out and pressed on the word Fu.

"Don't sell this word, whether it's ever opened or not, just keep this calligraphy and take it home." ”

Seeing that Chen Shou didn't want to buy it, the man grinned again.

"This doesn't bother the military master, I have my own proportion, and I will definitely not sell it if it is low. ”

Sure enough, surnamed Zhang, Chen Shou nodded.

"Then put the words away, there is a way that wealth is not exposed, and the same is true of this word, by the way, when do you usually come to set up a stall?"

Zhang Shu scratched his head, what is the matter with this sergeant? But after all, the other party seems to be an officer, and he does not dare to slack off.

"It's not good to say, I don't come when I'm lucky, and if I come to set up a stall, it's usually close to noon. ”

"Hmm. ”

Chen Shou nodded, glanced at the word Fu again, and then left with the soldiers beside him.

After Zhang rate set up the stall again, seeing that there was not much business, he also put away his things and picked up the flat pole and left, humming a little song on the way back, the mood was still good, his hand reached into his arms to weigh the money bag, and the sound of copper coins and broken silver hitting each other was more pleasant than singing.

"Hehe, I'm going to sell a tael today!"

Zhang Shuo glanced at the word Fu that had been rolled up in one of the baskets, this word, he knew that it must have really been opened, this word had never faded since he could remember, and the elders in the family also valued this word of blessing very much.

But Zhang Shu felt that the word "Fu" was also a little bit of a role to ward off evil, even snakes, insects, rats and ants could not be repelled, and the Zhang family was only a little more prosperous than ordinary people, with a slightly larger house, but it was not a really big family, and I had never heard of any windfall at home, all of which were made by the older generation through their own hard work and frugality.

So for this word "Fu", in the eyes of Zhang Shu, who has seen it for nearly 20 years since he was a child, it is not so mysterious, of course, this word has not been posted outside since the Zhang family moved, but hidden in the cabinet at home, and this collection has been almost ten years.

The family has been doing well over the years, in fact, the Zhang family has almost forgotten the word "Fu", until a few days ago when Zhang Shu rummaged through things and pawned things, he rediscovered the word "Fu" that he thought he had lost a long time ago, but Zhang Shu was silent.

......

After Chen Shou returned to the barracks, he began to become absent-minded, and for two days, his mind was full of the word "Fu" he had ever seen.

After he went out for exercises in the past two days, he would go to the market to shop, but he never saw the man named Zhang Rate again, not to mention that he hadn't scraped together enough money, which made Chen Shou suffer a little bit from gains and losses.

Returning from the market again today, Chen Shou passed by a white tent, and saw that the people in it were writing, and he had something in his heart, so he thought about whether he should write a letter home and ask, but he felt that this back and forth letter might be several months, but it was too far away.

The master in the tent looked up and saw that Chen Shou was about to leave, so he stopped him.

"Uncle Chen, are you in trouble?"

Chen Shou paused, and under the irritability in his heart, he thought that this master book was well educated, and he had a good relationship with him, so he might be able to relieve his boredom, so he walked in.

Chen first arched his hand, and then sighed.

"Mr. Qi, I am indeed depressed. ”

The main book's name is Qi Yuantian, who was originally from Gyeonggi Prefecture, when Dazhen and Zu Yue started a war, like many hot-blooded scholars, he raised the three-foot Qingfeng and went north directly from the army.

Qi Yuantian got up to return the salute, and then motioned for Chen Shou to sit on the stool on the side, and he quickly ended the book in his hand, pressed the seal again, and then put down the pen and looked at Chen Shou.

"Uncle Chen, what's the matter?"

"Hey, I'm in for ...... I fell in love with a favorite thing, but it's too expensive, not to mention, the person who sells this thing hasn't appeared recently, and my heart is itching!"

Qi Yuantian was a little curious in his heart, he knew this Chen Shou, he was a good person, and his mind was clear, don't look at it as just a team of Dubo, in fact, the boss intended to promote it to a military candidate, and after the last battle, he was only rewarded with military salaries, and the credit has not been completely calculated, with Chen Shou's performance last time, this promotion should be able to sit down.

"Oh, what is it?"

"Yes...... Hey, it's a rare thing, I can't tell, by the way, Mr. Qi, how many taels of silver do you have, can you borrow some from me?"

"Me?"

Qi Yuantian was a little amused, he took out his money bag and looked inside, in addition to copper coins, there were also some silver ingots and broken silver and broken gold.

"It's probably worth a hundred taels of silver. ”

Chen Shou was stunned.

"So much, can you lend me some, lend me thirty taels, thirty taels is enough!"

"Thirty taels, that's not a small amount!"

Qi Yuantian smiled.

"Then, does Mr. Qi borrow or not?"

"Borrow, Chen Dubo's character, can Qi still believe it?"

Now Chen Shou's mood is much better.

"Hahahaha, thank you Mr. Qi, thank you!Alas, it's a pity that money is not enough......"

Qi Yuantian looked at him, lowered his head and sorted out the gold and silver from the money bag, he is not like some sergeants, sometimes after conquering the city, he will go to spend all his time drinking to vent, a lot of rewards have been saved, and the position is not low, so there is a lot of money left.

Picking through the money bag a few times, suddenly, a cluster of golden light flashed, making Qi Yuantian move, and then his fingers flicked down in the money bag, and there were two copper coins in it that seemed to be more eye-catching than other copper coins.

"Mr. Qi, what's wrong?"

"Oh, it's okay, it's okay, it's thirty taels, I just have a silver scale here......"

Watching Qi Yuantian take out the whole or scattered gold and silver and weigh it, Chen Shou thought about the blessing word, and suddenly asked again.

"Mr. Qi, what do you say?"

Qi Yuantian actually looked at the depths of the money bag every time he took out gold and silver, but he still felt interesting when he heard this question, so he thought about it and raised his head to answer.

"Actually, according to Qi's opinion, the so-called blessed is not rich and expensive, not a blessing before and after. ”

"What's that?"

"I remember when I was still studying, I discussed this issue with Brother Deng, what is a blessing? The family is well-off, the family is harmonious, there is no disaster, no illness and no pain, no hatred of others, and no hatred by others, in general, life is smooth, life is comfortable and comfortable, there are not too many troubles, parents are long-lived, virtuous wives, children and grandchildren are full, all are blessings, you look at this ancestral land, how many people can be so many?"

Chen Shou listened deeply and nodded in agreement.

"Mr. Qi is right, the former Zuyue, the rich family is still easy to be remembered, and the powerful family is in a whirlpool again......"

"That's right. ”

Qi Yuantian also weighed the gold and silver.

"It's almost thirty-two taels, it's not easy to divide, Chen Dubo will use it first." ”

"Hey, thank you Mr. Qi!"

Chen Shou stood up and saluted, and then took the gold and silver handed by the other party, and the heavy feeling made him feel a little more steady.

"Chen said goodbye, Mr. Qi can come to me if he has something, and he will definitely help if he can do it!"

"Well, okay, don't send it. ”

Qi Yuantian also stood up to return the salute, and when Chen Shou left, he immediately sat down and took out two copper coins from the money bag.

"This money is ...... That's right!"

Qi Yuantian suddenly recalled that before joining the army, it seemed that in a teahouse in Gyeonggi Province, a rather personable gentleman had left him two pieces of tea money, but after thinking about it carefully, he couldn't remember what that person looked like.

"No, not long after joining the army, didn't I lose the money bag once, and this copper coin should also be lost...... Aren't they the two?'

Qi Yuantian frowned and thought for a while, and his intuition told him that these two copper coins were the original two.

"Well, the battle is almost over, and it's almost the New Year, shouldn't I go to the market and buy something?"

Because of Chen Shou's words, Qi Yuantian also moved his mind to go to the market.
