Chapter 4 Meeting Zhang Yuanwai again(1/3)
Above the clouds.
Feel the colder autumn wind.
After Ning He was full of his stomach, he rushed leisurely, enjoying the beautiful scenery along the way under the clouds and mist, and was not in a hurry to go back.
Time to night.
The sky is the quilt, and the clouds are the couch.
Sleeping in the open clouds.
It was not until the morning of the next day that Ning He returned to the tea stall.
This look.
Ning He found that the night passed, but no one left his own tables and chairs.
Not only that, there was a twelve cents more on the table with books.
There was about six bowls missing in the water tank, which just matched it.
But when using spiritual consciousness to identify the breath in the tea shop, there were not only six people coming to the tea stall, but twenty-one people.
Seeing this, Ning He spread his palms out and took off a drop of water above the tea shed.
The water waves spread, looking back at all the scenes when I left.
Ning He saw that the fifteen people who had not drunk tea were divided into three batches.
Two batches were yesterday evening and one batch was today early this morning.
They went to the store one after another, and they called the store several times. When they saw that there was no one in the tea stall, they thought there was a fraud, so they hurriedly left.
After all, there were still some black shops that set traps on the road in ancient times.
They are afraid of being hacked after drinking tea.
The six people who paid the bill were divided into two batches.
It was all yesterday evening.
One of the first four people came to the regular customer once.
Seeing that he was not here, he asked his fellow travelers to sit down.
After drinking tea, take the lead in getting the money after a while.
Another group of two people.
They also picked up tea by themselves, but after drinking it, they waited for a while and saw that the store had not come back.
One of them wanted to leave without getting the money.
The other person pulled him and quarreled with him.
The person who didn't get the money saw his friend quarrel with him for a no-one stall, and left in anger, but before leaving, he angrily paid the money.
The friend sighed and hurriedly caught up.
See these.
Ning He condensed another drop of water and placed it on the beam again.
Wait for the books in your exit bag.
Ning He recalled the taste of Xuncheng braised pork and began to repair books as usual.
This time I have more experience with the braised pork article in the "King of the Knights", after all, I was there yesterday.
And also when Ning He restored books.
In a rice yard on the west side of Zhou County.
Four people were going to the warehouse, loading bags of rice into the car, preparing to sell them to rice merchants in the city.
That is commonly known as "co-sponsored goods".
Because Zhou County is vast and close to mountains and rivers, the fields are fertile, there are many grain and farmers, and the rice is slightly cheaper.
There are many people in the city and few counties next to it, making rice in the city more expensive.
This hundred miles away, you can make some hard money and stock it can also be used for the city and Zhou County.
By the way, I went to some rare things in the city and sold them in the county.
Mr. Zhang is an expert in this art.
He is now loading the car with the four people.
Perhaps it was because he started his business as a businessman in his early years, which made him still maintain the habit of doing everything himself.
Not only do I load the car with my guys, but I also like to follow the car.
The same is true.
When the guard leader first came to the store, he saw that his uncle was not in the front store, and he knew that his uncle had gone to the backyard to load the goods again.
When he arrived in the backyard, he found that it was the same as he thought.
Mr. Zhang was wearing a thick cloth robe he used to work, carrying a bag of rice on his shoulder, coming out of the warehouse and walking towards the cart.
The guard hurried forward and wanted to take it.
Mr. Zhang shook his head slightly, put the goods in the car, took a breath before saying to him: "It's not easy to change hands in the middle."
As he said that, Mr. Zhang was going back to move the goods.
The guard took off his outer robe, threw it at the cart, and followed.
Along the way.
He looked at Mr. Zhang's gray hair on his temples and persuaded him as usual.
It seems that before leaving the car, no matter whether Mr. Zhang listens or not, he will persuade him like this.
"Uncle, our store has been open for ten years."
The guard walked into the warehouse, bent down to carry rice and placed it on Zhang Yuanwai's shoulder, and then tried his best to persuade him, "You have worked hard for most of your life and earned so much, so you should enjoy the happiness.
But it’s not the same thing that you are following the convoy every day.”
"I just had the honor to start a family." Zhang Yuanwai continued to carry the goods and put them in the car again. He continued: "It was ten years ago when the Wu Dynasty was newly built, and some descendants of officials from previous dynasties were removed. I was only fortunate to take over two stores.
Look, now that these ten years have passed, I have just bought more companies.”
"Hey." The escort leader shook his head and laughed, putting the goods on his shoulders in the car, "That was eight years ago, and you didn't want to make friends with the official from the city.
Otherwise, if that adult brings us, we can also open a restaurant in the city!"
"Make friends with him?" Zhang Yuanwai walked into the warehouse and saw several friends just out before he said to the guard: "A mere civil servant who manages tax and silver in the city is not Lord Jin Cao in the city, but just running errands for Lord Jin Cao.
But he is not very strong and has a big air.
Eight years ago, when I came to our Zhou County, I shouted and shouted. I couldn't stand this person and didn't want to make friends with him in a humble way."
"You can't stand it anyway." The guard leader said helplessly: "But this person is showing off, but after collecting the money, he is really doing practical things.
Although he has a low position, after his years of activity, our county has curbed his two shopkeepers. With his activity, he opened branches in the city five years ago, which has steadily suppressed us."
When the guard said this, he heard the footsteps outside the house and stopped talking.
The four guys saw that the shopkeeper and his nephew seemed to be talking about something, so they also took the rice bag and left quickly.
Wait for a few guys to go out.
The guard then continued, "But I heard that the two shopkeepers waited for two years at the beginning and didn't expect him anymore.
Who knew that this person really did it, and left two stores in Jin Cao's place with low prices but good locations."
When the guard said this, he found that Mr. Zhang was looking at the rice bag in front of him and stopped talking.
The guard paused for a moment before asking carefully: "Uncle, do you regret this?"
When Mr. Zhang heard this, he looked at his nephew and saw that there was no one around him. Then he sighed without hiding it, "At that time, I thought I could break out of a world and didn't need to make friends with that Liu Wenli. But now, of course I regret it..."

"Oh..." The guard also sighed, "Last month, I went to the city, and I specifically asked for indirect information with an acquaintance. I learned that the civil servant had now replaced the Jin Caoling in the city, in charge of the taxes of the store and merchants in the city.
I thought that the two shopkeepers who defected to this civil servant a few years ago will probably rise this time."
"I just sigh that I didn't seize that opportunity." Zhang Yuanwai shook his head, "Now that Lord Liu is already Jin Cao, and he wants to curry favor with him too much.
This time I went to the city, so I could ask the two shopkeepers to help me introduce them.
But whether you can curry favor with me now and whether Lord Liu can take you and me in his eyes is not something you and I can say."
After finishing his speech, Zhang Yuanwai pointed to the rice bag in front and signaled him to continue moving.
The guard had no choice but to put the rice bag on Zhang Yuanwai's shoulder and then continued to move the rice.
And when Mr. Zhang loaded the car outside.
The Liangcheng Jin Cao Ling who was in their words, the Lord Liu who loved to show his love, was misunderstood by them.
