Chapter 2 Tongcheng

"Who changed my clothes like this? Do you think I am an extra? Do you know how much money I make in a day?

Ask your director to tell you how on earth I got to Hengdian."

Pang Yu, whose face was covered with blood, roared loudly. People in the street looked at the roaring fool Pang in fear, and several aunts whispered.

"Isn't this crazy?

That entrance is obviously a paper shop, but he insisted on saying it was Hengdian."

"What a fool! How can a store sell something that is horizontal and still have a vertical store?"

"It's better to be stupid and ask him to harm others."

Pang Yu yelled for two minutes, but no one came forward to explain. Pang Yu was still a little dizzy. He shook his body and reached out to cover his head. At this time, he suddenly felt his collar tightening. Someone grabbed the back of the collar and tightened it.

Then there was a ball of furry stuff on the back of my neck, which slithered against my back and got into my clothes.

"I'll wipe it!"

Pang Yu jumped up in fright and reached around behind his back, but couldn't catch the furry thing. He shook his clothes in a hurry and couldn't shake it out. He found that there was a belt around his waist. He untied it and jumped a few times, and finally got rid of the furry thing.

The thing shook on the ground.

There was a dead rat on the ground! Pang Yu cursed angrily, "Who the hell is so unscrupulous to scare people with a rat?"

"You still know what immorality is."

Pang Yu looked up and saw a tall and beautiful woman in front of her. Her face was lightly swept with Emei. She was wearing a white long skirt and plain clothes with narrow sleeves. She was holding a few pieces of paper in her right hand, which she should have used to catch mice just now.

, his face was red at this time, and he was looking at himself with an angry expression.

Pang Yuzheng was inexplicably frightened by what she was seeing. After hearing this, she felt angry and scolded her, "I didn't provoke you."

The beauty put her hands on her hips, "How dare you say you didn't offend me? It was clearly you who hit me with a mouse just now... and took advantage of me."

The woman couldn't say the word "butt" and blushed for a moment and was speechless.

"I'm guilty of taking advantage of you. There are many people chasing me, ranging from eighteen to thirty years old. Your appearance is only average. You can't even put on make-up. You don't want to give it to me if you want to give it to me."

The toad wants to eat the swan meat."

Pang Yu denied it, then curled her lips, "You still pretend to look like you. Your appearance is better than that of the extras. You should be a special invitee, but it's not much better.

Tell me, did you sleep with the assistant director?"

"sleep?

You..." When the woman heard that Pang Yu turned around and refused to admit it, she wanted to beat him up. Her eyebrows stood up in anger. She panted and lowered her head to search on the ground. She picked up the pick stick that Shopkeeper Zhou had just thrown away and hit Pang Yu.

.

The shopkeeper Zhou was so anxious that he shouted from behind, "My daughter can't help it, please stop beating her."

When Pang Yu saw that the woman was about to use force, he quickly turned around and ran away, but his head hurt and he was dizzy, and he couldn't run fast. He saw that the woman was about to catch up, and when he was feeling anxious, he heard a shout from behind.

"Master, run away!"

The servant rushed up and pulled Pang Yu away from the wall of onlookers. Under the chase of the woman, the two of them broke into a small universe and disappeared on the street.

...Ten days later, in the early morning, Pang’s courtyard.

"It's been such a long journey. Investors, enemies and friends, you will never be able to find me."

After Pang Yu murmured, he covered his face with a towel.

Pang Yu's head was bandaged with cotton cloth, and he was sitting in the east wing with dull eyes. He smelled the smell of medicinal materials that filled the room, looked up at the beams and tile roofs above, and the sunlight passed through the deep tile-colored gaps.

Scattered on the stone slabs in the east wing.

"What evil did the old Pang family do! Yu'er was beaten, and the medicine storehouse collapsed. God doesn't want my Pang family to live anymore!"

A woman's voice was crying outside, and Pang Yu recognized it as his cheap mother, a simple working woman. Her main job was to be Pang Yu's mother, and part-time as a long-time worker at Pang Jiasheng Drug Store.

A man's voice shouted in a low voice, "What's the use of crying? It's really a woman's wisdom. It's not like Yu'er was beaten to death. She just had wind in her head. She did some crazy things these past two days. Maybe she'll be fine in a few days." .

The medicine warehouse collapsed because the beams were rotten and it was caused by heavy wind and rain."

Pang Yu heard again that this was Cheap Daddy, the current shopkeeper of the Pang family's herbal medicine store, the setter of three generations of the Pang family, and he happened to be the third generation to Pang Yu's place.

My mother’s voice said: “We only have this little money at home, what are you going to do with it?”

"The medicines from those doctors are no longer usable after being soaked in water. I have to buy some new ones to give to people."

"Master, give them the medicine. If you take away the money, you won't be able to uncover the pot in the second half of the month."

The father was silent for a moment and said: "Pang Jiasheng Pharmacy has been in business for three generations. What we sell is medicine, which is used to treat people's diseases. We give the brewed medicinal materials to people. The good thing is that it cannot cure the disease, but the worst thing is that it will cost people's lives. Our old Pang The family cannot do anything wrong."

Then there were footsteps leaving the door, and the cheap lady started to cry in the courtyard.

Pang Yu's eyes were dull. What kind of pregnancy was this? In the past ten days, apart from treating the wounds on his head, he kept trying to verify which location in Hengdian he was in. He didn't give up three days ago and searched for a location. The bullock cart drove ten miles out of the city, but what we saw was still the same ancient scene.

From his understanding, Hengdian would not invest in such a grand setting even if it wanted to fool itself.

Coupled with the remaining memory fragments in his mind, he finally accepted the fact that he had traveled through time.

This is Tongcheng County, Anqing Prefecture, in the seventh year of Chongzhen Emperor's reign, and is under the jurisdiction of Southern Zhili.

Tongcheng County is located outside the southeastern end of the Dabie Mountains. The northwest of the county is mountainous, and gradually turns into hills and plains toward the southeast, extending to the edge of the Yangtze River.

Tongcheng leads to Huguang in the southwest and Luzhou and Fengyang in the northeast. It is an important land transportation route from Huguang to Lianghuai. At the same time, it has the benefit of the Yangtze River, and can reach the prosperous land in the south of the Yangtze River.

Whether it is business or agriculture, it has unique conditions. It has always been relatively prosperous. Except for the occasional passing tourists and bandits, it has been very peaceful for many years.

Lao Pang's family runs a medium-sized medicinal material shop. Because Tongcheng is close to the Dabie Mountains, which are rich in various medicinal materials. In addition to supplying pharmacies in Lianghuai, they also purchase nearby medicinal materials and sell them to Anqing Prefecture, along the Yangtze River. The waterway is exported to southern Zhili, Zhejiang and other places.

Although not a wealthy family, before the collapse of the medicine warehouse, it was still considered a modestly wealthy family. Pang Yu was the only son of the old Pang family.

It turns out that Pang Yu was seventeen years old, had not been able to study since he was a child, and did not like to do family business. Fortunately, after the middle of the Ming Dynasty, government service became a profession. Due to the relationship, Pang Yu became a county official.

When I became a Zaoli, I was first assigned to a household. Because I was not very smart, I was sent back by the household. I stayed in the Zaoban to do odd jobs. I just idle around and did a lot of bad things. Finally I met Shopkeeper Zhou. When the stick comes down, the old Pang Yu becomes the new Pang Yu.

What's all this, why am I in such a strange place.

As soon as Pang Yu closed his eyes, he slapped himself hard twice in the face. He hoped that when he opened his eyes, he would be back in the office of his previous life. Even if he faced those angry investors, it would be better than here.

Carefully opening his eyelids, nothing changed, except that there was another face in front of him, belonging to Pang Ding, the servant of the Pang family.

Pang Ding held a two-finger-thick wooden stick, knelt down with a thud and said, "Master, I said I want to do more family justice today. I can beat you as much as you want."

Pang Yu pulled off the face towel covering his face. What he was most satisfied with the current situation was that he had such a helper. Modern life was interesting, but how could anyone be so obedient? He could be beaten and scolded as much as he wanted, and told to do something.

Run as fast as the wind.

It's a pity that the old Pang family is having a bad year. Not only Pang Yu was beaten, but there was a heavy rain a few days ago, and the Pang family's medicine storehouse collapsed. There was a large amount of medicinal materials that had just been recovered. Old Pangtou was going to wholesale them to Anqing Mansion. This

It would be a devastating blow to Pang's pharmacy. If the pharmacy collapsed, they would not be able to support the servants in the future.

"Hitting you is not the purpose, it is just a means."

Pang Yu decided to have fun first. He raised his feet proudly and enjoyed the joy of scolding others, "What is the purpose? It is to let you know where you made the mistake and not make it again in the future.

Otherwise, why would I hit you? Am I someone who likes to hit people?"

"you are."

Pang Yu sat up and grabbed the wooden stick as if to hit him. Pang Ding quickly begged for mercy: "I said the young master likes to hit people outside, but he doesn't like to hit me."

Pang Yu rubbed his forehead, his head was still a little dizzy. Thinking about how fierce the Zhou family and his daughter were that day, Pang Ding was hiding as fast as the wind. "Then tell me, do you know where you went wrong?"

No?"

Pang Ding was dejected, "I didn't help the young master block the stick, so the young master was beaten."

"Hey, in the future, you must remember that if anything happens to you, you should bear it first and let me take the lead... let me go first, young master.

No matter how injured or sick you are, I have the young master to make the decision for you. Look, this time, if the young master really beats me to death, the master will definitely not want you, and he will not have to drive you out. You said you are not here again?

Wherever you go to make a living, it’s not good for you or me, right?

Now that you have realized your mistake, having this basic understanding means that your nature is not bad and can still be reformed.

In the future, if you correct your shortcomings, you will still be a good comrade."

After Pang Yu had finished his training, he raised the wooden stick, pointed it at Pang Ding's head, and knocked it down.

Ponting took a hissing breath, closed his eyes and waited for the beating, but the wooden bar touched his head lightly, then retracted it, and there was no movement for a while.

Pang Ding opened one eye and peeked at the young master, only to see that Pang Yu had put away the wooden bars and lay back on the chair.

"Master, do you still want to fight?"

"No more fighting, get up."

Pang Ding stood up in surprise, but saw that the young master did not move, and did not seem to be deliberately teasing him. He couldn't help but feel very lucky. If this had happened before, he would not have been beaten half to death.

Pang Yu lay listlessly on the chair, wearing it even if he didn't want to time travel, and he had no choice in terms of conditions. It sounded like the old Pang family was going to be in trouble soon. If he wanted to live here, he had to find a way to help the old Pang family overcome the current difficulties.

It worked, but he knew nothing about how to make money in ancient times, so he couldn't help but said to himself: "During the Chongzhen period?

There seems to be nothing wrong with him. How many years has Chongzhen been alive?"

"Young Master, don't you dare say such nonsense. What you are asking is when will the Emperor die? It will be a capital crime."

Pang Yu rubbed his forehead and said, "The death penalty is nothing. I'm not afraid of that. What the young master is afraid of now is that he doesn't know much about ancient life. What career will he pursue in the future?"

Pang Ding coughed and said, "Master, you are talking nonsense again.

But when it comes to what to do, why don’t you think about it? It’s best to understand and make money.”

"You don't need to make money, but what about the start-up capital..." Pang Yu suddenly stopped and hit Pang Ding on the head twice, "You idiot, you are not allowed to talk about money. What is the use of money? The meaning of life is money.

How much? The key is to be a good person. I want to be a good person in this life. You kid, don’t lead me down the wrong path."

"Who says people who make money are not good people."

Pang Ding muttered, "Our drug store has collapsed. Having money can save the drug store's business. Whoever gives us money is a good person."

"Well, I think what you said makes sense. Master, let me make some money from you first. Bring your money. Master, I can't afford to be short of money. I will eat too much. I will use some money to improve the food first."

..." Pang Yu said as he went to search Pang Ding's body. Seeing that the situation was not good, Pang Ding turned around and ran away. Based on his experience, although the young master is bad, his movements are not flexible enough. Who knows, as soon as he raised his feet to run, he

Something tripped under my feet, and a dog fell to the ground eating shit.

Although Pang Ding fell into the mud, he had the ability to resist. According to his inherent experience, he was ready to turn over. Pang Yu had already retracted his hooking legs, jumped up quickly, pressed his upper body on Pang Ding's back, and used his feet to

Prop up your legs with your toes so that the center of gravity of your upper body falls on Ponting's back.

Pang Ding struggled desperately with his arms, but Pang Yu clung to his back like a gecko, using his feet to control his position and suppress Pang Ding's center of gravity, making Pang Ding unable to get up no matter what. Instead, he exhausted his energy in a short while.

, and was finally pinned to the ground by Pang Yu like a dead dog.

Seeing that Pang Ding was completely out of strength, Pang Yu stopped controlling Pang Ding's joints and jumped on his back, searching him while cursing: "I was already prepared when I spoke. Do you think you are the only one who thinks about money?"

Run, I’ve seen a lot of people running away.”

"Master, please don't do it. I managed to save a little more. You, what kind of skill are you using? I haven't seen you practice before."

"Young master, I am born with talent. Do I still need to practice? I am not afraid to tell you that the young master's training name is Gracie. I don't need any powerful tricks on you."

While talking, the three coins of hard-earned money that Pang Ding had saved finally fell into the hands of Master Pang. Pang Yu let go of Pang Ding and looked at the small dark white piece in his hand and couldn't help but cursed: "Why is it so small? How much can it be worth."

Pounding sat up and was about to cry loudly. At this moment, he heard a noise in the outer hall, and it sounded like the voice of a cheap mother. It seemed that the matter was not a small matter.

Pang Yu asked strangely, "Who is my mother quarreling with?"

Pang Ding forgot to cry for a moment, listened carefully to a few words, and said hesitantly, "Master, don't be angry after hearing this. The neighbor said that you were hit on the head, and our medicine store collapsed again, and the medicinal materials were all soaked in water. Liu

My family said they wanted to break off the engagement, but that seems to be the reason for the quarrel."

"ah?

break off an engagement?

Do you really want this scene? Just listen to the fun."
