Chapter 70 Accepting a servant(1/2)

"Hey, don't get me wrong. I'm not beating someone. I'm helping the innkeeper. He asked me to beat him. If you don't believe me, ask him if he is?"

The innkeeper was probably frightened out of his mind, he nodded and shook his head.

Zhao Chuan laughed and chased the shopkeeper into the yard again. The shopkeeper circled around the big water tanks, and Zhao Chuan smashed the big water tanks one by one.

"Okay, okay, stop fighting!" More and more people came to watch the fun, and they all gathered around the door of the inn and shouted.

Zhao Chuan stopped and told everyone the reason, and how the shopkeeper wanted to blackmail people.

Some people say that he should be beaten, as this shopkeeper is usually annoying.

Zhao Chuan said to the shopkeeper who was scared to death that I'm really sorry. You asked me to hit you, but you hid as soon as I hit you. You hid too fast, and I didn't hit you at all. Instead, I was still beaten.

I gave you a beating. Am I right?

The innkeeper was in shock. He was probably frightened and didn't speak.

Zhao Chuan also said that I will compensate you for the broken things, and I can't let you suffer any loss. I don't want the more than sixty taels of silver left on the cabinet, which is enough to compensate you for these broken things.

"Oh, I'm really unlucky today. I obviously wanted to do something good and help others, but I ended up paying them money. It seems I can't do something good..." Zhao Chuan pretended to be sad and left the inn.

Zhao Chuan hadn't walked far when he felt someone following him. When he turned around, he saw that it was the waiter who was new to the inn, a half-year-old boy.

"Hey, didn't the innkeeper tell you to go to the local official to report to the official? What, if you don't go to the inn to clean up after you report to the official, why are you following me?" Zhao Chuan said.

"I didn't go looking for Xiangzheng after I left the inn," the child said.

"Why didn't you listen to the shopkeeper and go find Xiang Zheng?" Zhao Chuan asked again, saying that if you didn't listen to the shopkeeper, you would be beaten and fired if you went back.

The half-grown child said that he didn’t want to have sex with the shopkeeper, and that the shopkeeper was a bad person.

"Then why are you following me now?" Zhao Chuan smiled, turned around and walked forward.

"I want to follow you." The half-grown child followed Zhao Chuan again.

Zhao Chuan shook his head repeatedly and said, stop joking, I don't run an inn, so I don't need anyone to work.

The half-grown child didn't say anything after hearing this, and just followed Zhao Chuan silently.

After walking for a while, Zhao Chuan turned around and saw that the child was still following behind.

Zhao Chuan had no choice but to stop, sigh, and ask the child how much he would pay per month for working as a waiter for the innkeeper.

The boy said that one month was three taels of silver.

Zhao Chuan took out a ten-tael silver note and said, I'll give you this money, don't follow me.

The kid said he didn't want any money.

Zhao Chuan said, what do you want? I said I am not the shopkeeper, I don't open a shop.

The child said that I would like to ask you to introduce me to something to do. I think you are a good young master.

Zhao Chuan said that I was just an outsider and was just passing through this town. How could I tell you what to do? After that, Zhao Chuan gave him the ten taels of silver notes.

The child insisted not to do it, and just wanted to find something to do. It didn't matter if it wasn't in this town, as long as it wasn't too far.

Zhao Chuan asked him how old he was, and he replied that he was twelve years old.

Well, what can a twelve-year-old do? He's not afraid to leave home and go somewhere else just to find something to do.

Zhao Chuan was a little worried. He had a lot of messy things to do right now, so how could he have the time to take care of them?

There is a saying that it is better to do less than to do more. There are so many pitiable things in the world that we cannot control so many.

Without giving up the money, Zhao Chuan put away the banknote, turned around and walked away quickly.

Zhao Chuan planned to find another inn to stay in first, and then go to the drug store to find Wang Decai to settle the bill for the medicinal materials he had ordered before.

When the child saw that Zhao Chuan was no longer paying attention to him, he still trotted after him.

Zhao Chuan wanted to find another inn that was further away from the original one, so he walked forward with all his strength.

I remember that this town had a lot of inns, more than a dozen of them. Zhao Chuan counted them carefully when he first came to this town last time.

After passing several inns in a row, Zhao Chuan was not satisfied with the appearance. Until there was an inn in front of him, the appearance was not bad, so Zhao Chuan wanted to go inside, but the half-grown child who was following him suddenly ran up and grabbed Zhao Chuan.

Said this house cannot be lived in.

Why? Zhao Chuan asked.

"This store is too dirty. There are many rats, lice and bed bugs."

"How do you know?" Zhao Chuan asked him.

The half-grown child said that he has been delivering food to various inns in the small town since he was a child, so he is very familiar with the situation of each inn.

Zhao Chuan asked him why he didn't deliver food now but went to work as a waiter in an inn?

The half-year-old child said that his parents were vegetable growers, but their parents died of illness two months ago, so now they have no choice but to find work.

It turned out that this was what happened. Zhao Chuan felt a little sad when he heard this. He recalled that when he was this old, he ran away from home and worried about how to survive.

Zhao Chuan didn't want to think too much, so he walked a few steps and saw another inn. The half-grown child said that this one was not good. It was too messy and guests often had their things stolen.

After walking a few more steps, we came to another inn. The half-grown children said that this one was even worse. When you slept until midnight, women would get under your bed and sleep with you, and then a few rich and powerful men would come in and perform the Immortal Dance...

After visiting several inns, Zhao Chuan was so disturbed by this child that he no longer felt like staying in an inn.

Forget it, I can’t live here for the time being. Let’s go to the drug store to find Wang Decai.

Zhao Chuan went straight to the drug store.

While walking, Zhao Chuan suddenly thought of something and asked the name of the half-grown child who had been following him.

The half-year-old child said he had no name but his surname was Mao, and his parents always called him Mao Boy.

"Okay then, Mao Boy, would you like to work as a clerk in a drug store?" Zhao Chuan asked.

"That's great!" Mao was overjoyed, saying that if he could have worked as a clerk in a drug store and learned some medical skills, his parents would not have died.

Zhao Chuan felt sad.

Zhao Chuan said, then just follow me. When we get to the drug store, we will act according to the situation and be smart. I have to talk to the shopkeeper again. I wonder if they are short of assistants and if they can take a fancy to you.

After following Zhao Chuan for a few steps, the hairy boy suddenly pulled Zhao Chuan back and asked him, "Do you want to meet the waiter who was run by the innkeeper?"

Zhao Chuan was thinking about something and hummed absentmindedly.

Seeing that Zhao Chuan agreed, Mao Boy quickly turned around and shouted something behind him.

Soon, a twenty-year-old young man ran up quickly and called out to Zhao Chuan, "Young Master!"

Zhao Chuan was stunned. Isn't this the waiter who was fired by the shopkeeper in the inn just now?

"You have been following me too?" Zhao Chuan was a little surprised.

"Yes, yes, you just beat up the shopkeeper in the inn, and we have been watching you!" the waiter said embarrassedly.

Zhao Chuan asked, "Why are you following me? Are you not satisfied with watching me beat up the innkeeper?"

The waiter smiled dryly and said no.

Zhao Chuan asked him what his name was, and the waiter said it was Da Mao.

Da Mao Zhao Chuan looked at these two people for a long time and smiled.

"Are you two brothers?" Zhao Chuan asked.

Da Mao smiled and said yes.

Zhao Chuan asked the innkeeper just now if he knew that you two were brothers?

Da Mao shook his head and said that the shopkeeper didn't know.

Zhao Chuan asked Damao, if you were fired, why don't you find a new job?

Mao Boy said, young master, can you introduce me to a drug store as a clerk, and also find something for my brother Da Mao to do.

Zhao Chuan had a dark look on his face and secretly scolded you for thinking that I am a dental agency. The pharmacy doesn't necessarily want you or not. You are the one who has to bear the burden of shaving your head.

Zhao Chuan looked troubled, saying that this might not be easy to handle. You are a bit old, you are already twenty years old. You are generally too old to be an apprentice, so you should find a more productive job.

Da Mao said fine, as long as there is work to do, I won’t pick or pick it.

Zhao Chuanxin said that this person has a good attitude towards finding a job and is a good servant.

Zhao Chuan said okay, you can follow me for now.

Da Mao immediately knelt down and said, "Thank you, Master!"

Master? When Zhao Chuan heard this, he subconsciously stepped back and said, "Da Mao, what's going on with you? Are you going to lose your mind?"

"Come back to me, my little brain is not broken. If you let me follow you, aren't you my master and my master?" Da Mao still knelt down and couldn't get up.

Zhao Chuan looked around, a little embarrassed, "Get up, get up, what's it like kneeling on the street? I just said that you should walk with me first, not that if you become my servant, I won't even be able to eat.

How can you afford servants anymore..."

"Master, Master Zhao, you are a good man. I have decided that following you will be a blessing for me in this life. I want to follow you. Your original follower is gone, so accept me as your follower. Please agree,

Master, Master Zhao..."

The original follower is not an easy person, isn't she? You can't compare to her, Zhao Chuan thought secretly.
