Chongwu Mountain Village is good, but the pomegranate flowers have suddenly become abundant.
The fifth day of May, Dragon Boat Festival.
In fact, the city of Kyoto has been entering the Dragon Boat Festival atmosphere since the first day of the Lunar New Year. The city also has the custom of "cakes on the first day of the Lunar New Year, rice dumplings on the second Lunar New Year, snails on the third Lunar New Year, peaches on the fourth Lunar New Year, and dragon boat racing on the fifth Lunar New Year." However, today
Definitely the busiest day.
The sun in May is a bit hot, and you will sweat profusely after being exposed to it for a while. Almost every woman on the street has a parasol to prevent her skin from getting tanned. A small heat wave is set off on the ground, and the bluestone pavement looks a little distorted.
There is a restaurant in the southern corner of Dongdong City in the city. It has three floors. The overall color scheme is brown and red. It looks luxurious and generous. The details throughout the building are also very beautiful. A huge plaque hangs on the eaves, with dragons and phoenixes dancing on it.
There are three big characters "Yueke Building" written on the ground. Behind the building is the widest river in the city. As long as you choose a good location, you can clearly see the dragon boat race on the river, so there is an endless stream of guests in the building.
At this time, the young master in a white robe waved the paper fan in his hand, stepped into the building, turned to the young master in green beside him and said: "You can't get involved with the Yang family. The food and wine must be good, and the location must be good.
...You have so many demands, but fortunately, I found them."
Tang Ji glanced at him: "Stop talking nonsense and hurry up."
The waiter quickly noticed the two men in extraordinary clothes and greeted them with a smile: "Two guests, have you booked a private room in advance?"
Li Yu nodded: "Yunzi Room No. 2."
Hearing this, the waiter nodded quickly. The shopkeeper had already given instructions before. Room No. 2 Yunzi was a distinguished guest among the distinguished guests. He must not be neglected. He immediately bowed and said: "The two young masters, follow me!"
Immediately, the two of them followed the waiter and walked towards the stairs.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, the middle-aged man sitting at the counter suddenly stood up, with an impatient look on his face, and pushed the young man who was standing in front of the counter chattering, causing the latter to fall directly backwards. It happened that
It hit Tang Ji.
Fortunately, Tang Ji was no longer the weak scholar who fell down at the first touch a year ago. He quickly stretched out a hand and put a hand on the other person's shoulder to prevent him from contacting him.
Seeing this, the face of the middle-aged man at the counter changed slightly, and he immediately bowed his head to Tang Ji and apologized: "I'm sorry, sir!"
The waiter standing nearby also broke out in a cold sweat. After he came to his senses, he immediately waved to the two guards standing at the back door: "You guys, come here quickly and kick this guy out!"
Tang Jize raised his eyes and glanced at the young master in front of him. He looked pretty good, with fair and tender skin, a bit like a little boy. If Ye Xiao saw this, he would probably be envious again, but the eyes and cheeks of the man in front of him were red.
It was obvious that he had drunk too much. He tried to let go of his hand, but found that the other party almost fell to the ground, and he couldn't help frowning.
Are you treating him as a pillar?
Meng Yunyang shook his head, raised his finger and pointed at the middle-aged man at the counter and scolded: "I will give you one last chance. Let me tell you, I have never failed to settle accounts. If you miss this store, there will be no such village!"
"
"If you miss this village, there won't be this store!" Tang Ji reminded.
Meng Yunyang nodded in agreement: "Did you hear that? Take me away!"
The middle-aged man at the counter was too lazy to pay attention to the other person. He hummed and looked at the two strong men walking from the back door, waiting for them to pull this crazy man out.
Just when the two strong men were about to take action, they were interrupted by Tang Ji: "Wait a minute, what just happened?"
Lu Hongda saw that he didn't look like an ordinary citizen, and he almost bumped into him when he tried to shirk, so he politely replied: "Such a young man, this guy ran into the building with a drunken face, walked to the counter and asked me if I could hire him.
Mr. Accountant, before I could answer, he asked me to get him fifty taels of silver first. I thought he was probably a lunatic, so I ignored him. As a result, this kid kicked his nose in the face. If it hadn't been busy in the building, I would have
I sent him out personally!"
But as soon as he finished speaking, Meng Yunyang shouted loudly: "Who is drunk? I am not drunk!"
"Look, look, come here, kick him out, don't affect the business in the store!" Lu Hongda looked angry, waved his sleeves, and said decisively.
Tang Ji raised his lips slightly. When he heard the middle-aged man's words, he couldn't help but think of the scene when he went to Jianghai Chamber of Commerce to apply for a job in Huaizhou. He pushed Meng Ziyang to stand up, and then raised his hand to interrupt the movements of the two strong men guarding him.
, then asked: "Are you in any trouble?"
Meng Ziyang supported the counter and slowly sat down on the ground, without any expression on his face.
"Sir, please don't pay attention to this lunatic, and let the guards kick him out, otherwise I won't be able to continue my business!" Lu Hongda said anxiously.
Tang Ji didn't seem to hear what he said. When Meng Ziyang didn't respond, he took out the only two 10-tael silver ingots he carried today from his sleeves: "Don't you want to be Mr. Accountant?"
Seeing the shiny silver ingot, Meng Ziyang suddenly woke up and raised his head suddenly: "As long as you can give me fifty taels, I can do anything you ask me to do. I have been helping my father with his business since I was a child, so forget it.
There will never be any mistakes in the accounts of the past ten years, please trust me, sir!"
Tang Ji nodded slightly, squatted down and put a silver ingot into his hand: "I'll give you ten taels first, so that you won't be robbed like this. If you don't have enough, come to Jiranju in the north of the city to find me."
Ji Ranju!
The name of Ji Ran's Bookstore has spread throughout the city in the past two days. It is said that the shopkeeper behind the scenes is "Ning Guo's most talented man" Tang Ji, who has close contacts with the world's chamber of commerce. Thinking of this, Lu Hongda can't help but turn his attention to Tang Ji.
On Ji's body.
Tang Ji didn't stop. After putting down the silver ingot, he got up and walked upstairs.
In an instant, Meng Ziyang burst into tears from his eyes and fell to his knees with a pop: "Thank you so much, my benefactor! Thank you so much!"
Li Yu glanced at him twice, and then quickly followed Tang Ji: "What are you doing? You have more money to do charity? Aren't you afraid that he is a liar?"
"Do you think he looks like a liar?" Tang Ji asked calmly, raising the corner of his mouth slightly, and continued: "If what he said is true, then I can still find a highly qualified accountant for nothing."
"Oh, you can't entrust people with unknown origins with important tasks!" Li Yu retorted.
Tang Ji shrugged his shoulders. He still understood that it was necessary to be on guard against others, but he also valued talents. Now he wanted to see how things would develop. Without thinking more, he followed the waiter to a certain place on the second floor.
In front of the private room, when the door slowly opened, complaints came from inside.
