Chapter 167
It has been four hours since Gao Yang went out early in the morning, and before it was dark, he came back. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
When Gao Yang entered the house, he told him all about what he had achieved today.
Jiangning is a city in the center of Jiangning, the south city is mostly a fang city, the east city is mostly a place where the rich gather, the west city is the residence of officials, and the north city is the place where the people live.
And the inn where they were located was only halfway between the West City and the North City.
If you go to the west, you will find the mansion of the nobles, and if you go north, you will find the place of the market.
If you rent a house, on a monthly basis, Dongcheng is more than ten times that of Beicheng, and it is the same house with two entrances and two exits, and Beicheng needs three yuan, and Dongcheng needs about 50 yuan.
If they want to gain a firm foothold in Jiangning, they must settle in Dongcheng, where the rich gather.
Tomorrow, they will find a house in the east city, and sign a lease contract, as for the money, only by spending it can they earn it back.
Gao Yang took a good look at the yards in Dongcheng and Beicheng respectively, and after combining Su Fu's opinions, he took the deposit given by Su Fu to Dongcheng to rent a yard on the second day.
Gao Yang went and came back near noon, and he had the lease of the house in his hand, so all this was done.
He handed over the lease deed to Su Fu before saying, "Do you want to move over now?" ”
Su Fu shook his head, "Don't worry, you go to the ferry to find a Lifu first, and just say that you need to move things." ”
Although Gao Yang was puzzled, he didn't ask much, and when he answered the call, he wanted to turn around and leave, so he heard Su Fu stop him, and said carefully, "It's a thin and dry young man, people are very quiet, no matter what way you think, bring people over." ”
Gao Yang nodded, only to hear Su Fu say again, "There should be other people in that young man's family, and you can mention it if necessary." ”
Gao Yang answered and left again.
When Gao Yang left, she was in the house thinking about what she would do next.
Gao Yang listened to Su Fu's instructions and came to the ferry, there was no need to look carefully, the people who worked as a force at the ferry were all strong as oxen, full of strength, thin and dry teenagers, except for Liu Cheng, I am afraid that there is no one else.
There was a boat approaching the ferry, and Liu Cheng'an stayed quietly on the sidelines, watching other Lifu go towards the pier.
Gao Yang looked at him and felt that he was interestingly tight.
Thinking that Su Fu had also seen Liu Cheng, he had no objection at the moment, so he walked directly in front of Liu Cheng, and asked in a low voice, "Little brother, do you have a job to do?" ”
Liu Cheng heard someone talking to him, slowly raised his head, and when he saw that it was a man with a face, and this man's not fluent Central Plains official dialect mixed with a Fujian accent, he knew that the person looking for him was not a local.
Liu Cheng's guard became heavier, and his dark eyes seemed to be covered with a thick barrier, so that people could not easily see through them.
"No, no." Liu Cheng stood up, said stiffly, and turned to walk away.
Gao Yang didn't expect that Liu Cheng, who came to the ferry to work as a husband for his livelihood, was a temperamental, but after this closed-door soup, he did not step forward to continue to persuade Liu Cheng.
Gao Yang followed behind Liu Cheng, looking at the coarse cloth clothes on Liu Cheng's body, the clothes were torn, but they were not patched, there was only one reason, there was no female dependents in the family, and there was no money to go to the tailor's shop, and the trousers were worn to the hair, revealing the skinny ankles, and the pair of cloth shoes on the feet were even more unsightly.
But even so, Liu Cheng's tattered clothes were extremely clean.
Gao Yang paused, and then kept up with Liu Cheng's pace, "You are not the only one in the family!" ”
Liu Cheng listened to Gao Yang's words, subconsciously stopped, and for a moment, Liu Cheng turned his head, frowned, and said coldly, "What's the matter with you?" ”
Gao Yang was accustomed to Liu Cheng's tone, so he simply got straight to the point, "I came to Jiangning Mansion for the first time with my master, I was staying in an inn, but I just rented a yard a day, and I need to find a husband to move things, I saw that you were sincere, so I wanted you to go over, even if you don't want to go over, but you can starve, can people in your family starve?" ”
Looking at Liu Cheng's expression on this matter, Gao Yang's words must have been said to Liu Cheng's heart.
Liu Cheng gritted his teeth, and finally relented, "How to calculate the remuneration?" ”
Gao Yang saw that he was relieved, and his face eased, and then said, "Two taels of silver a day." ”
Two taels of silver, equivalent to 2,000 copper coins, he had to move and unload goods at least hundreds of times at the ferry to earn so much, not to mention that he basically couldn't find work at the ferry.
If it weren't for the pity of some of the ship's stewards......
Thinking of this, Liu Cheng shook his head, wanting to shake this thought out, he was not pitiful, not pitiful at all.
Gao Yang saw him shaking his head, thinking that he didn't have it, and was thinking about increasing the price, but he heard Liu Cheng say, "I'll go." ”
These two taels of silver are enough for the two of them to eat coarse tea and light rice every day for a month, although they know that this person must be tired of coming to look for him, but he still has no hesitation to go.
Seeing that he agreed, Gao Yang was in a slightly better mood, took Liu Cheng straight in from the West City Gate, and hired a carriage to go to an inn.
Gao Yang entered the inn first, Liu Cheng followed behind, and paused outside the door of the inn for a moment before raising his feet and walking in.
It's just that as soon as he walked in, the guy from the inn came over and stopped, "You can't enter." ”
Liu Cheng stopped and didn't speak, but Gao Yang, who came first, walked up to this guy and said, "He is my newly hired Lifu to help move things." ”
The innkeeper didn't let go, gritted his teeth and didn't let Liu Cheng enter.
"Why?" Gao Yang didn't understand it.
The innkeeper looked disdainful, "He's the queen of the guilty." ”
After saying this, Liu Cheng, who had been silent, was even more silent at the moment, not only more silent, but also turned around and was about to leave at this moment.
"Is he guilty?" Before Gao Yang could speak, a voice floated from the height of the inn, and when he looked at it, it was Su Fu who was covered with white veil, and his straight body in a plain brocade robe could not be easily ignored.
The sinner is naturally innocent after that, otherwise he would not be as free as he is today.
The guy reluctantly said not guilty, so he had to let Liu Cheng in.
I heard Hongying say that she saw Gao Yang leading the young man in, but she was stopped by the inn guys, she came down from upstairs, and then the inn guys retreated, and she glanced at Liu Cheng beside Gao Yang through the eyes of the white yarn.
She didn't tell Gao Yang Liu Cheng's name, but there was only this young man at the ferry, and it was probably not Gao Yang who would come to the door.
"Come on!" Su Fu dropped a sentence and walked up the stairs again.
Gao Yang took Liu Cheng upstairs and said, "She is my master." ”
Liu Cheng was still disturbed by Fang Cai's body, and when he heard Gao Yang say this, he lowered his head silently, and went upstairs with Gao Yang.
Gao Yang knocked on Su Fu's door, and Hongying came over to open the door and invited the two of them in.
Liu Cheng followed behind Gao Yang, looked at Su Fu who was sitting on the stool, and said with certainty, "I've seen you." (To be continued.) )
