Chapter 21 Partners

The moonlight was quiet, and the branches of the elm and plum trees in the courtyard wall swayed gently.

In the candlelight, the knife put down the needle and thread in his hand, and Ying'er put down the book in his hand.

Wang Xiao was a little sleepy, listening to Ying'er's reading, and at some point he sat at the table with his head propped up and fell asleep.

Ying'er couldn't help but laugh when she looked at his sleeping face.

"The young master is sleepy, so I won't wash my face today, let's help him to the bed." She whispered to the knife.

Daozi nodded, helped Wang Xiao with Ying'er, and put him down.

After covering him with the quilt, Ying'er stared at the sleeping boy again, and then reluctantly blew out the candle and walked out of the room with the knife.

"The roast chicken and sugar gourd that the young master brought today are really delicious." The knife couldn't help but break it again.

"yes." Ying'er sighed.

But she felt that the whole day had been extremely long, and it was as if something was missing.

Today, I only stayed with the young master for two hoursβ€”the little girl thought to herself.

In the room, Wang Xiao opened his eyes and turned his head to look at the window.

The moonlight reflects the beautiful shadow of the girl on the window paper.

After a while, the figure left. After a while, the next room fell silent.

Wang Xiao got up and got out of bed, went out of the house lightly, and climbed the courtyard wall with familiarity, he looked under the wall, and couldn't help frowning.

This wall is still so high, I twisted my foot yesterday, and it is not good to jump off it today.

He was hesitating, but he heard a squeak, and the courtyard door opposite opened, and the flower branch came out.

Then the ugly girl brought a ladder and set it up under the courtyard wall.

The ladder is new and apparently just bought today.

Wang smiled and got off the ladder and said to Huazhi, "Thank you." ”

Apparently not talkative, Haneda gestured to her young lady's house.

As soon as Wang Xiao entered the house, he saw Tang Qianqian's smiling face.

"You're finally here." She said softly.

The voice is delicate and soft, with some joy.

Wang Xiao suddenly felt that this scene was like a scene of a secret tryst between a husband and a woman.

"I made two hundred taels today."

After this opening sentence, the young man chattered endlessly, saying that it was nothing more than how much money was spent on something, and even the two pennies of the sugar gourd were not leaked.

"Now here, it's only fifty-six taels or three dollars." Wang Xiao put the small cloth bag on the table, sighed, and said, "If it weren't for the eldest brother who borrowed one hundred taels, we would have one hundred and fifty-six taels and three dollars now......

Tang Qianqian listened very patiently, with a smile on her face, and asked, "You came here tightly to give this silver to the slave family?" ”

"yes, or not?" Wang Xiao was stunned.

Tang Qianqian let out a long "um", took Wang Xiao's hand and said angrily: "Do you want the slave family to be your outer room?" Well? ”

What is the outer room? Wang Xiao was startled and exclaimed: "Didn't we say that we would do business in partnership, you won't forget, right?" Honeycomb coal ......"

"How dare people forget what you said?" Tang Qianqian said aggrievedly: "This matter has been done." ”

Wang Xiao was taken aback: "It's done so quickly?" What to do? Do you have silver? ”

Tang Qianqian smiled: "Don't be so anxious, the night is still long, sit down and let's talk slowly." ”

As she spoke, she leaned against the head of the bed and beckoned to Wang Xiao.

"Don't."

Tang Qianqian just laughed and didn't speak.

Wang Xiao sighed helplessly, so he had to sit down at the end of the bed carefully, and said, "Can I not be in a hurry, I am really uncomfortable without money to spend." ”

"Huh? How uncomfortable is it? Tang Qianqian looked at him with tears in her eyes, full of concern.

"Ugh."

Can you not drive all the time-Wang Xiao was a little annoyed.

Tang Qianqian covered her mouth and smiled: "Okay, okay, the slave family depends on you, just say it, hum, people have been running for a day for you." ”

"Oh." Wang Xiao had no choice but to say, "You have worked hard." ”

"The slave family found a total of four workshops in and out of the city, and together with the laborers, they also asked people to collect cinders, and they collected as many as they wanted."

She told her that this stroke was actually quite large, and she thought that Wang Xiao would be surprised.

Unexpectedly, Wang Xiao just nodded lightly and said, "Yes, it's best to collect all the cinders in the capital." In this way, once we start selling, others will not be able to learn if they want to. ”

Tang Qianqian glanced at Wang Xiao deeply, nodded and said: "The slave family also means this, in addition, according to your drawings today, let people press a briquette and try it." ”

Wang Xiao hurriedly said, "Feasible?" ”

"Do you need to ask what you said?"

"Hey, everything is ready, only the east wind is owed."

Wang Xiao suddenly frowned, and said to himself: "I'm afraid our silver is far from enough. ”

Tang Qianqian nodded pretending to be aggrieved, and said, "People have advanced a lot of silver." ”

She was a little pitiful like this, and Wang Xiao had no choice but to mutter: "I thought you were just asking about the price today, but I didn't expect you to come so quickly, didn't I rush over to give you silver?" ”

Tang Qianqian said: "People spent more than 100 taels, but you only brought 50 taels." ”

"What fifty taels, I obviously brought fifty-six taels and three dollars." Wang said with a smile, suddenly jumped up, and exclaimed, "You spent more than a hundred taels?" ”

"According to your proportion, you invested two or three hundred thousand yuan in one day?"

You're an immortal jumper, so rich?!

Tang Qianqian blinked a little confused and asked, "What do you mean by two or three hundred thousand?" ”

Wang Xiao muttered, "I mean, you believe me like that? Directly smashed more than a hundred taels? ”

Tang Qianqian said leisurely: "In this way, don't you believe in others more?" Last night, I directly gave this secret method to others......"

Wang Xiao hurriedly blocked it with his hand, preventing Tang Qianqian from leaning over.

He knew with his toes that the woman wanted to drive again.

"I'll do it again to get some silver."

Tang Qianqian suddenly wiped the corner of her eyes with her hand, and said aggrievedly: "We don't have enough money to do business, at this time, you still spend a few taels of silver to buy a gift for Yahuan, woo woo." ”

Wang Xiao rolled his eyes - can you stop playing it, big sister.

"I brought you a gift too." Wang Xiao had no choice but to take out two boxes from his arms.

"This is a Zihao Lake pen for you, and this is a kitchen knife for Huazhi."

Tang Qianqian wrinkled her nose and said coquettishly: "You just reported the account and bought a hairpin, and gave it to you?" ”

"This brush is the most expensive." Wang Xiao hurriedly said.

Tang Qianqian smiled softly and said softly: "If you can't get the silver, forget it, just one person has half of the capital, you come up with the idea and I will contribute, we men and women are concentric, and their strength is gold." ”

Wang Xiao looked down and saw the woman in front of her with her head down, like a little daughter-in-law. It makes people's hearts soften.

Alas, she's acting again.

"By the way, you said last time that my eldest brother had a reason to kill me." Wang Xiao said suddenly.

"People have said it's a guess."

Wang smiled: "I heard that my mother died in childbirth because of giving birth to me, do you say that because of this, the eldest brother hates me a little in his heart?" ”

Tang Qianqian was stunned for a moment, and said softly: "Why bother saying that......"

"Today, there were two times when my eldest brother mentioned his mother, and I felt that he missed her very much." Wang smiled.

Tang Qianqian muttered: "How can anyone kill people because of this?" ”

"But maybe it's a combination of various reasons, such as he still owes me a hundred taels ......"

Tang Qianqian suddenly hugged Wang Xiaoxiao.

It's not the flirtatious hug you had before, it's just an ordinary hug, like a comfort.

After hugging it for a while, he let it go, except for touching Wang Xiao's face again, and he didn't take the opportunity to rub a lot of oil.

The two talked about the honeycomb coal business for a while.

After that, while Tang Qianqian went to put away the gifts, Wang Xiao ran out of the house and quickly climbed the ladder back to Wang's house.

This feeling is like secretly going on a date when I was a student, and then sneaking into the dormitory.

Wang Xiao actually didn't quite understand why he believed in Tang Qianqian so much. She is obviously a liar who engages in immortal jumping, and she is also involved in the mess of the killer underworld.

I also tease myself from time to time.

But anyway, that's it, fifty-six taels of silver have already been given.

In the moonlight, Wang Xiao suddenly felt a little messy.

For example, I forgot to tell Tang Qianqian about Zhang Heng.

For example, I forgot to ask myself about Princess Shang.

For example, in this era, there are still many people who are not used to it.

I'm not used to worrying about my life, and I'm not used to facing so many people every day.

He didn't know if he belonged to this era.

Here, some people spend 200,000 yuan for a dinner, while some people sell their own children and get only 7,000 yuan. And what about yourself? Do you want to die? Or do you want to fight?
