Qi Feng stood in the bright sun of the summer afternoon, watching the few people in front of him enter the cool and quiet hall, and he was going to make tea and serve water, and what was even more excessive was that when he arrived at the pantry, he found that the fire on the stove could not be extinguished anymore, and the water in the teapot was not hot at all, hey! He also had to boil water.

Boil water to make tea and serve tea, after a lot of hard work, but no one cares, his father is not only unhappy, but also pointed to his nose and said: "Grinding and chirping for so long, punish you to do a hundred piers and lift boulders!" ”

The sun was blazing outside, and he held the broken stone up and down a hundred times, oh my God! I had to kill him!

made a decision immediately, Qi Feng flatteringly brought a pu fan, "Dad, it's so hot, I'll fan you!" ”

Qi Shan nodded with satisfaction and pointed to the small stool beside him, "Sit and fan, don't stop!" Then, it was very pleasant to enjoy the cool breeze.

Lu Xiaoyi sat on the chair by the window, pursed his lips and couldn't help laughing, seeing that the bitter Qi Feng looked at him angrily, Lu Xiaoyi deliberately showed an exaggerated silent smile, so angry that Qi Feng pointed a fan at her and gritted his teeth.

Qi Shan coughed, turned his head and yelled at Qi Feng: "Don't stop!" Then, he looked at Lu Zhong with a smile, "Brother Lu, brother, I am a cheerful person, let's get straight to the point, I see what you can do in the dry food business, let's settle the matter of partnering now!" ”

Lu Zhong hugged his fists, "Brother Qi is admired by his brothers, and it is also a blessing for brothers to be able to partner with Brother Qi." ”

Qi Shan got up and took out a booklet from the small cabinet on the side and handed it to Lu Zhong, "This is the daily account of this month, we can remember clearly how many cakes we sell and how much we charge." Brother Lu looked at it first. ”

Lu Zhong scratched his head and smiled: "Brother, I only know a few words, how can I read the account book!" ”

Qi Shan said happily: "It's not a secret, I only know my own name, this booklet is all written by Feng'er, haha!" It seems that he didn't spend money in vain when he was sent to the academy, but it is still so useful. ”

Qi Feng was very proud, stopped fanning the wind and said to himself: "Dad, if I could calm down and study back then, I might be able to pass the exam at this time, and study for a few more years." I'll take the Jinshi exam again...... Tsk..."

"Keep fanning! Don't stop, don't stop. Why don't you listen? Qi Shan gave him a head to the door, "Besides, do you think that the people who raised the Jinshi were picked up on the street?" How many people can't get into the coffin, which onion are you? Save it, son! Just keep an account book. Follow me to sell cakes with peace of mind! ”

Qi Feng pouted and continued to fan. agrees with Qi Shan's words.

Qi Shan threw the account book on the table. continued: "It's okay if Brother Lu doesn't look at it, to be honest, let's partner up." You don't need these account books, you just need to remember how many cakes you send every day, and you need to set up an account book in my store to buy and ship goods and collect money. ”

Lu Zhong nodded, "Brother Qi is right, I just need to remember the number of cakes." ”

"After we discuss, we still have to make a deed, in the future, you can only give me one for scones, if you want to supply other shops, you must get my consent." Qi Shan saw this unique business, and took many follow-up problems into account, and in the future, there were shops in the city that wanted to sell scones, and they had to get goods from him, and he would make more money.

Lu Zhong said with a smile: "It's tiring enough to provide for your family alone, how can you afford to provide for other families!" I also want to worry-free, make the scones with peace of mind, everything in the city is complicated, it is better to entrust it to Brother Qi to take care of it! ”

"Don't worry, I've been in Yifu City for 30 years, we can't catch up with the big guys, the little guys know a few more or less, and the people on the road also give us a few thin noodles, but as long as I do business seriously, few people dare to embarrass me!" Qi Shan is telling the truth, he has accumulated some contacts over the years of running the dart bureau, and he is not stage frightened to deal with ordinary small things.

Lu Zhong nodded, convinced of Qi Shan's words, "Brother Qi has any other requirements, let's put them forward together." ”

Qi Shan thought for a while and said, "Not for the time being, you tell me your requirements, and I'll add it slowly." ”

Lu Zhong said: "Okay, I will also talk about my requirements, I will set the supply price of the scones myself, Brother Qi will set the selling price, I will not participate in the more and less, and I will not interfere if I make money or lose money, if Brother Qi smashes the brand of Lu's scones because of the indiscriminate pricing, I will stop supplying and have the right to partner with other shops." ”

Qi Shan has no objection.

"Scones are the only business, after partnering, I only care about scones, Brother Qi only sells cakes, you can't find out how to scones." After speaking, Lu Zhong paused for a moment and said to himself: "To be honest, you just know how to bake cakes, and you can't bear the bitterness of that smoky fire, so we can earn hard money." ”

Qi Shan smiled: "That's!" ”

Lu Zhong thought for a moment and added, "Last point, how about we settle the bill every ten days?" I wanted to end it in January, but I thought that my family was not enough, and I was worried that I would not be able to buy wheat. ”

"Okay, it's okay for Brother Lu to mention a few points, Feng'er, you go and get the pen and ink, and write down the words just now one by one."

Qi fanned the wind and didn't move, "I'm not going, I'm going to fan you and let the grain go, and he can write." ”

Qi Shan glared and scolded: "Lao Tzu asked you to fan before, you just wanted to stop, now let you stop, you want to fan again, are you itching!" ”

Yu Liang got up with a smile, "Uncle Qi, I'll just go, where is the pen and ink?" ”

Qi Feng pointed to the desk near the window, "Oh, in the drawer over there." ”

Even if she expected that Yu Liang would be able to read and write, when she saw him take out the paper and ink, Lu Xiaoyi was still inevitably excited, she wanted to add fragrance to the red sleeves to help grind, but she had more than enough heart and insufficient strength, seeing that the ink ingot and inkstone didn't know how to start, yes, she had never touched the pen and inkstone in her previous life and this life, how could she know how to grind ink?

Let's be a village girl quietly!

I saw that the surplus grain was not in a hurry to put the ink inkstone paper and pen properly, turned around and went to the backyard to get clean well water, first put a small amount of water on the inkstone, the thumb and middle finger slowly clamped the ink strip, the index finger lightly pressed the ink end, and the heavy press and nudge drew an oval circle from far to near, the rhythm was slow and the strength was slight.

Lu Xiaoyi instantly thought of a metaphor: grinding ink is like a disease, I feel that this word is too appropriate, and looking at the appearance of the surplus grain grinding ink is really like being sick. No wonder the ancients liked red sleeves to add fragrance, it turned out that women were soft and weak to grind the ink with the right strength and beautiful color, the most suitable.

The grinding sound is a little rough, presumably the quality of the ink strip is average, but it is still treated gently in the hands of Yu Liang, and it is grinding again and again, looking at the ink in the inkstone quietly with his eyes, and adding some water one after another, until the ink is black and bright like oil, he gently puts down the ink ingot.

Lightly grind the ink, lick the pen heavily.

The brush that has absorbed the ink is flexible and winding on the white paper, and the Chinese and regular ink characters slowly jump out from top to bottom and from right to left.

Lu Xiaoyi liked it very much, staring at these cumbersome words, and couldn't take his eyes off.

Qi Feng walked over and laughed at her: "Look dumbfounded, right?" ”

Lu Xiaoyi nodded honestly, "Well, dumbfounded." ”

Qi Feng said proudly: "Let me tell you the truth, my handwriting is better than that of grain!" ”

Lu Xiaoyi squinted at him, just like he was talking about his height, full of distrust.

Qi Feng stuffed the fan into Lu Xiaoyi's hand, rolled up his sleeves, walked to Yu Liang and shouted, "Is it written?" ”

Yu Liang gently put down the brush in his hand and said to Qi Feng: "Okay, I'll read it to Uncle Qi and Uncle Lu, and it's no problem for you to copy it again." ”

Qi Feng urged, "Hurry up, I'm waiting for the copy, didn't you see the tomboy look at me?" She didn't even take me seriously! I'm going to have to convince her! ”

"Wait a minute." Yu Liang took the written deed to Qi Shan and Lu Zhong to read, confirmed that there was no problem, and then came to Qi Feng to copy it.

Lu Xiaoyi stepped forward and was coaxed away by Qi Fengniu, "Pull aside, don't affect my performance!" ”

Okay, everyone, we'll have to leave room for him.

I have to say that although Qi Feng is not in tune, he seems to have completely changed when he writes, I saw him sitting in front of the desk with a straight posture, frowning slightly, holding the pen affectionately, not to mention how well he wrote, with this serious attitude, Lu Xiaoyi gave him a passing score in his heart.

After the transcription was completed, Qi Feng immediately returned to his original state, laughed out loud, and when the handwriting dried slightly, he picked it up and appreciated it to a state of intoxication.

Lu Xiaoyi was very curious, leaned over to take a closer look, and saw a few lines of words sprinkled on the white paper, not as gentle as the surplus grain, but jumped out at will, making the original cumbersome font more difficult to read, but it did not affect the overall beauty at all, it seems that these two people learned by heart in the school at the beginning.

Qi Feng saw that Lu Xiaoyi's eyes were full of envy, and he became more and more proud: "Open your eyes, right?" Isn't it better than what the grain writes! ”

Radish and cabbage have their own loves, in contrast, Lu Xiaoyi prefers the gentle and gentle font of Yu Liang, and she is not a professional judge, she is completely based on feelings and preferences, not seriously! Whoever takes a village girl's evaluation seriously will lose.

Obviously, it was Qi Feng who lost.

When he heard Lu Xiaoyi say that the surplus food was even worse, he jumped to his feet angrily, if it weren't for the presence of Qi Shan and Lu Zhong, Lu Xiaoyi fully believed that Qi Feng would be able to knock her to the ground again.

Qi Shan stretched out his hand and asked his son to take the copied deed, read it several times, and scolded: "No wonder Xiao Yu'er said that your writing is poor, you see what kind of broken things you wrote, ghost painting peach charms?" ”

"Dad, don't pretend to be a big spicy person if you don't know how to read, I was in the school for a few years, but I specialized in copying the former kings, and even Mr. praised me for my talent, how did I become a ghost painting peach charm when I came to you!" Qi Feng complained.

"Really?" Qi Shan looked at his son's words intently again, and then pretended to finally understand, patted his thigh and said, "Okay!" Well written! The money of the year was not in vain! ”

Qi Feng pursed his mouth, not interested at all, "Okay, okay, I think it's okay, just press the handprint!" ”

At this point, Qi Shan and Lu Zhong's dry food business can be regarded as an official partnership, Qi Shan happily put away the deed copied by his son, Lu Zhong left the surplus grain to write, Lu Xiaoyi took the initiative to help keep it, carefully folded it neatly, and then wrapped it in a handkerchief and stuffed it into the innermost part of the sleeve pocket.
