A sumptuous banquet made Steward Jiang, who had been holding the shelf, put down his cold noodles, hugged the dog and asked him to call his father.

Although he was drunk and drunk, the dog still felt humiliated, and just wanted to scold him, the dog next to him knelt down with a puff, and shouted loudly with a glass full of wine in his hand:

"Father-in-law goes up again, and the child and dog are left to toast you."

When this sentence was spoken, the table instantly fell silent, and the red-faced Master Yao squeezed his eyes at Zhao Zhutou, who was picking his teeth, and said to a few catchers sitting with Liu Tou opposite: "It is said that the dog is clever, but I didn't expect his brother to be no worse than him, I said Tietou, I see how you can end up now." ”

Originally, today I only invited Zhao Zhutou and Liu Tou to accompany me, but then sat together, opened my mouth to chat, it turned out that Master Yao and this Jiang steward had known each other when they were in the army, and the relationship between the two over the years was very familiar.

I only brought the dog left, Jiang steward here received five other stewards to go to the banquet together, the location was set in the wine shop of Zhang Laohan's house opposite the county government, the dish is not very good, but chicken, duck, fish, sheep and pigs have all kinds of meat, not only meat, the most expensive wine in Youchuan County, "Huailiu Wine", a jar of five catties have come to two jars, and it is also a loss This month the dog received the dividends of Shitanshan from the Yamen, otherwise there is really no money to settle the bill.

In his heart, he said that Steward Jiang just had a smooth mouth when he ate wine and food, and joked a few words on the wine table, and he didn't really want to accept the dog as a righteous son, but when he heard Master Yao, an old bastard, he was red in the face for a while, and then turned his head to see that everyone looked over, as the so-called "head can be broken, blood can flow, and face cannot be lost"!

Steward Jiang waved his left hand and laughed at the dog Yu who was kneeling on the ground: "You baby is clever, I happened to see that you are also fateful, and I will accept you as a righteous son today." ”

"Good!"

"Great goodness!"

A group of spectators praised him one after another: "I didn't expect that today's wine actually drank a good relationship between father and son, congratulations!" Come, let us congratulate the father and son. ”

A wine ate the dog six taels of silver, but the rewards naturally did not stop there.

Only the first batch of materials and food provided by the Four Seas Firm for the carboniferous mines, after settling the capital of the small merchants and hawkers, took out the account book and calculated, and the net profit was fifteen times, thinking that they would receive such money every five days in the future, the dog's mouth could no longer close.

"Good dog, your father-in-law really didn't admit it in vain."

Looking at a pile of copper coins and a few pieces of broken silver, the dog turned his head and said excitedly to the dog who was lying on the kang with his eyes closed.

When Gou Yu heard this, he didn't say anything, turned around and continued to sleep, and Hu Dakang and Hu Xiaokang next to him took over the conversation and said: "Brother Gou'er, there are only 2,000 people in Shitanshan, if there are 3,000 people in the future, will the money we share also be doubled?" ”

The dog nodded with a smile and said, "That's for sure, if nothing changes in the future, at least this amount will be allocated to us every month!" ”

Hu Dakang looked at the two fingers stretched out by the dog under the oil lamp, and his lips couldn't stop shaking, "Two thousand taels?" There are so many mothers! ”

"Phew!" The dog spat him, stretched out his hand and said angrily, "How do you count your pig brains?" Practicing big guns every day and practicing stupidity? Has the head become a stick? ”

Hu Xiaokang saw that his brother was being pointed at the nose by the dog, so he lifted the cup in his heart, sat up straight and laughed: "Brother, you think badly, Brother Dog said two hundred taels, not two thousand taels!" ”

Hu Dakang and these people have been learning literacy and arithmetic with the dog for some time, and a few simple multiplication techniques are not right, that face is not worse than the monkey's butt, and quickly got into the quilt, but when he heard his younger brother still laughing at himself outside, his face couldn't hang up, he lifted it, and a roll climbed directly onto his quilt to press his body and said:

"You kid laughed a ball, I said a year, but not a month."

Hu Xiaokang was covered by him with a quilt, and he wanted to turn over and was pressed by him hard, and after struggling a few times to no avail, he had to open his mouth and say to forgive: "Brother, let go, you're right, two hundred taels a month, isn't it two thousand taels for twelve months a year, it's my brother who thinks wrong, you let go and crush me to death!" The nose is out of breath. ”

Hu Dakang saw that he was soft and forgiving, so he got out of the way, returned to his quilt, and hummed while covering the quilt: "That's what I mean, it's you who want to be bad, and you still have the face to laugh at me, hum!" ”

As he spoke, Hu Xiaokang came out of the quilt and gasped: "Yes!" I think it's bad, two hundred taels a month, twelve months a year, a total of two thousand taels, which is really a lot of money. ”

The corners of Hu Dakang's mouth twitched, and he affirmed: "That's!" After saying that, I always felt that something was wrong, and when I turned my head to see Hu Xiaokang who was smiling and the dog who was frowning his eyebrows, he pondered in his head, and with a loud roar, he rode back on Hu Xiaokang, and the big fist began to beat him.

The dog watched the two of them playing on the kang, sighed, slowly put the scattered copper coins into the bag, and then brought them to the kang, put them in a corner and covered them with a pile of old clothes, looked at the high pile, and said to himself: "This big pile is really in the way, and I will go to the gold and silver shop tomorrow to exchange it for broken silver." ”

His voice fell, and the dog on the kang who was originally a little sleepy said in a low voice: "What to change?" I don't need to change it, I think it's inconvenient to pay for silver, or copper coins! I thought that tomorrow we would also go out of the city to find some vegetables to stock up, and send them to the mine in one piece, anyway, to make one more one. ”

The dog took off his coat and got into the quilt and replied to him: "Well, what you said is also reasonable, it is more convenient to buy things than silver or copper coins, hey, by the way, I just thought of something, did Lu An pay back the money we borrowed from buying little piglets before?" ”

"What else!" Gou Yu pouted and said: "The five hundred piglets you bought in the autumn have died of frostbite after the winter this year, and Brother Lu An and the people in Tangjia Village were in a hurry, so they spent a lot of money to invite Lang Zhong, who specializes in treating livestock, to stabilize the condition of the piglets. ”

"Okay!" The dog sighed: "Then you take the money and go to them for the next two days, and let them make up the borrowed account." ”

Gou Yu pouted and complained: "Why, why do we pay off the debts for them with the money we earned?" ”

The dog glanced at the pouting dog leftover, laughed, and explained: "The dog leftover! Lu An and Da Lang are my personal guards on the surface, but they are actually private slaves sold to me by the Western Military Dictionary, they were originally felons to be beheaded, because I interceded with Wu Dashuai to forgive them, but the law is the law after all, so I fined the silver, and I bought my life for them, and a few of them signed a death deed to me in front of the marshal, which I didn't want, but the two of them didn't agree, so they temporarily followed me in the name of the personal guard. ”

"So, they will always be with us, so there's no need to be so clear."

If it was in the past, this "little money fan" who was not inferior to the dog would not have given the money he had worked so hard to earn and gave others to make up for the hole, but today, after listening to the dog's words, he didn't bother to say it, and sighed: "Okay, okay!" Give it to him, give it to him! It's really just a little bit of money, and you're spending it again, hmph, I'll not tell you next time. ”

When the dog heard his angry words, he smiled awkwardly, and after thinking about it, he was right, so he said: "When you go back, you write it down in the account book first, and this time you pay it for them, and then pay it back when they make money." ”

With this compromise solution, Gou Yu was also a little comforted, and said, "That's okay, I'll write it down tomorrow." ”

When people are tired, especially when they are mentally and physically lacking, the drowsiness comes very quickly, and the dog is still chanting the words "on the ledger", and the little snoring has already started.

Seeing this, the dog had to swallow the words he wanted to ask him back into his stomach, turned his head, and saw that it was just Hu Dakang and Hu Xiaokang's fight, and I don't know when the sleeping Dasha also joined in, and this time it became a melee between the three countries, and the dog looked at the three people who were still excited in the middle of the night and couldn't sleep, and then looked at the dog leftover who was tired for a day and shouted "leave the dishes" in their dreams.

A nameless fire rose in his stomach, and one of them slapped them and said: "The three of you are endless, you only know how to eat and eat every day, and you don't stop in the middle of the night, tell you, tomorrow is going to be tested, if any of you can't get it, see how I clean you up." ”

In the dead of night, it's a good dream.

The sound of the dog reprimanding the three people spread far and wide, and the big yellow dog next door heard the barking twice and expressed his approval.

The barking of dogs naturally spread farther than the shouts of people, so the barking of dogs in Nanchengfang reached a courtyard in Dongchengfang in the middle of the night where guests were being entertained.

The guard dog of the staff outside the house naturally grew fat and strong, and when he heard the sound of the same kind outside, he jumped out of the nest and began to bark at the south sky.

The fierce barking naturally made the host of the banquet in the house hear it, and said, "Loyal servant, have you fed the tiger today?" ”

The servant who called the loyal servant hurriedly replied: "Master Liu, it was naturally fed at the end of the curtain, and in order to make it full, the little one also went to the back kitchen to take the dismantled pig bones and chicken racks and feed them to the tiger." ”

"Really?" Master Liu was puzzled: "Then why is it still screaming, it must be that you idiot didn't feed it." ”

"No, sir, there's a lot of flesh and bones left in its basin! I'm obviously full! ”

"Hmph, you old man always likes to lie and lie to me, you go and bring its food bowl to me to see, if there are any bones left, I will forgive you this old minion, if not, hum, I will tie you to the door and keep watch for the tiger all night."

The old servant who called the faithful servant hurriedly said yes, and ran out with his hands.

When Master Liu saw him walk out of the house, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he complained to a few guests opposite: "These old minions are really slippery, and they often fool me with panic words when I don't pay attention. ”

"Hahaha, Liu Yuanwai has a good way of governing the family, it's too late for me to wait for a few people to admire, how can I laugh!"

"What Wang Yuanwai said is that the more old slaves are, the more they are bullies, so in my house, those useless old slaves are all sold."

Liu Yuanwai was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked: "Zhang Yuanwai has to teach me, where do these old slaves want them?" ”

"Yes!" Zhang Yuanwai drank a cup of wine and said: "The Tantan Mountain in Xicheng! It's when there is a shortage of people, as long as he gasps, he wants anywhere. ”
