Chapter 22: Wu Xiaomei's decision
The progress of the situation exceeded Qin Mu's best imagination.
Qin Mu thought that he couldn't explain his origin at all, after all, he didn't take a boat, a car, or walk, and suddenly appeared. But he never thought that there were so many gods and ghosts in the current Great Song Dynasty, and his experience was nothing at all.
There are groups of liars in the capital, and they are even more miraculous. Didn't Lin Lingsu say that he was in the immortal class? Isn't the emperor convinced of it today?
Immortals can go down to become officials, not to mention that Qin Mu said that he is an ordinary person, but the immortal kingdom has great ability, and he will only teleport him over, he will not soar clouds, nor can he control the fog, and there is no seventy-two changes, just bring a few treasures to do business with the Great Song Dynasty.
There is no pressure on outsiders to accept it.
Now that everything is in front of you, can you still not believe it? What's more, does it matter if what Qin Mu said is true or false? Unimportant! The important thing is to make money!
The economic activities of the Great Song Dynasty were extremely developed, and according to unscientific statistics of later generations, the GDP of the Great Song Dynasty accounted for eighty percent of the world at that time!
The more economically developed a place, the easier it is to accept gods and ghosts.
In the first few decades of New China, there were no cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods, and they all buried themselves in farming, so how could there be extra food to serve the demons and monsters.
However, after the economy improved, the masters appeared in droves. Not surprisingly, because there is a little spare money in society. Masters are also human beings, and they also have to eat. How can the master deceive when everyone has no overnight food? It's all life-saving money. Only when there is still some surplus food after eating and drinking, can the master have the soil to survive.
This is the case with the current Great Song Dynasty. Extreme prosperity has cultivated all kinds of liars, and Qin Mu is nothing compared to them, and it will not cause cognitive difficulties in society at all.
Qin Mu really didn't expect things to go so smoothly, after eating a meal, he and the Ren family were allied.
That's nice!
Qin Mu walked a little briskly. It only took more than half of the time to return to Wujiazhuang.
Ren Wai wanted to give him a horse, but Qin Mu didn't ask for it, he couldn't ride a horse. I once rode on a grassland farm, and it was unsteady and grinding my thighs, and it was not comfortable at all.
The clerk invited him to take the car, but Qin Mu also politely refused. At this time, the carriage had no shock absorbing device, it was rigidly connected, and the ground was not a smooth asphalt road, so the carriage had to fall apart after two hours.
Walking is the happiest.
He could not have returned to Wujiazhuang, but Ren Xiaoxiao wanted to go back, so Qin Mu also came back. He felt that Ren Xiaoxiao's new house in Wujiazhuang was his home in the Great Song Dynasty, and only there could he be calm and stable.
Ren Xiaoxiao had to go back, the matter of the dock and the Wu family's compound were still waiting for her to take charge. Before going to the capital, she needs to arrange everything properly and hand it over to her eldest brother Ren Wen to take over, so that she can go to Bianliang City with confidence.
Three days later, Ren Xiaoxiao finally sorted out a lot of messy things, and then said goodbye to her eldest brother, and walked to the dock with Qin Mu Xiaotao, waiting to board the ship and enter Beijing.
At this time, the dock is not the dock of the new plane, and it is far less complicated. A piece of flat land with gentle currents and a sturdy land is enough to serve as a wharf.
The reason why the Ren family has never built their own wharf is because the land in the Great Song Dynasty is expensive, and even if there is money outside the staff, there are owners in the places suitable for building wharves, and it is no problem for people to kill him or not to sell him. That's why I had to marry my daughter to Wujiazhuang, but I didn't expect to make people happen, and my daughter became a widow as soon as she entered the door.
The little widow doesn't care about her identity at all, she has no feelings for the Wu family, and now she can't ask for this. Now there is another fairy-like Brother Qin, who takes her to visit Bianliang, Tokyo, the most interesting place in the world, not to mention how proud she is.
In the blink of an eye, I walked to the east entrance of the village, but I saw a woman kneeling on the side of the road, motionless in the direction of their group.
Qin Mu walked a few steps quickly and leaned over, but it turned out to be an acquaintance, Wu Xiaomei.
Wu Xiaomei is waiting here. After her father's funeral was finished, although Wu Xiaomei was heartbroken, she still had to think about the future. Not to mention anything else, how can she pay back the debt of 3,000 Wen. The only way is to sell this yard.
Wu Xiaomei was very reluctant. She is only eighteen years old this year, and she moved here when she was ten years old, and since then she has lived with her father, and despite her suffering, she has spent eight years of her life in this small courtyard, and if she counts from the time she remembers, that is, when she was five or six years old, it can even be said that all her memories are in this courtyard. When the yard is gone, her roots are gone, and she has been drifting like duckweed ever since.
Wu Xiaomei didn't want to do this. But the money has to be repaid.
Fortunately, her creditor is not Ren Xiaoxiao. The money was given by Ren Xiaoxiao, but the creditor was the kind-hearted family.
Wu Xiaomei didn't know how a family member could have such a big face and let the main family advance so much wages, but since people lent it to her with kindness, she must not secretly admit it. This is not the character of the little sister.
Daddy Wu is a landed talent, he originally opened a private school in Wujiazhuang, and after he got sick, he lay at home every day, and Wu Xiaomei studied with him when she had free time, so Xiaomei was a rare cultural person among the low-level women in the Great Song Dynasty. Xiao Tao can't read a single big word.
To be literate is to have a certain mind. Wu Xiaomei was afraid of causing trouble before, so she took the initiative to stay away from the people in Wujiazhuang. Now that her father is dead, she has to make a new plan for her life, so she naturally needs to understand the situation of her creditor.
Qin Mu's affairs are too easy to inquire. It can be summed up in one sentence, the little widow's little white face, everyone in the village said so.
She was full of affection for Qin Mu. A man who is willing to advance wages for a strange woman, and has no plans, is a good man no matter what. Wu Xiaomei just felt that it was a pity, how could such a good person, tall and big, be the guest of the little widow.
But no matter what Qin Mu's character is, he is good to himself, and he owes him debts, which must be repaid.
Wu Xiaomei knew that if she wanted to make money, she could only go to Hancheng County to sell herself as a maid. Since you want to be a maid, who should you be a maid or not, it is better to give it to Qin Mu, and it should be used as a debt. Anyway, Qin Mu has a little widow, and he won't fight his own ideas. Even if he made up his own mind and the little widow was watching, he wouldn't dare.
So she waited for the opportunity every day, and finally blocked Qin Mu this morning.
Qin Mu didn't expect that there would be such a hurdle on the road to fortune. He was so excited to go to the capital to make a fortune, but he didn't expect to be blocked in the middle of the road by a girl.
Qin Mu tried his best to say that he didn't need her to repay the debt, and he didn't want a penny, as long as she lived well, but Wu Xiaomei's attitude was extremely resolute, and she refused to retreat half a step, if he didn't agree, he would kneel here until he died.
Qin Mu believed that what she said was done, and her clothes were still torn by her. However, Ren Xiaoxiao was generous, and he didn't care about these at the time, and directly gave him a new set.
Seeing a large amount of banknotes waiting for him in front, Qin Mu didn't have the patience to entangle with Wu Xiaomei anymore, so he nodded and agreed.
There is another Wu Xiaomei in the team.
Ren Xiaoxiao didn't dare to care about Qin Mu at all now. Brother Qin is not a member of the Ren Mansion, who dares to let someone from the Immortal Kingdom be in charge. Ren Xiaoxiao didn't dare to speak, and Xiao Tao didn't dare to speak, although she was very unhappy to see Wu Xiaomei join. Having a beautiful maid is a lot of pressure on me.
Ren's boat is very comfortable. This vessel transports people and cargo, and pursues speed and safety.
The maids and boatmen on the boat have all their families, and the team is led by an acquaintance - Wang Jiaotou.
Qin Mu and Ren Xiaoxiao went to the capital, and Ren Yuanwai naturally didn't dare to take it lightly, so they sent their most powerful combat power out.
However, Qin Mu's identity is kept as secret as possible, and the staff only said that Qin Mu is a child of a distant relative's family, and he used to be a housekeeper to hide people's eyes, but now that he is going to Beijing, he doesn't need to hide it anymore.
As for why he wants to hide people's eyes and ears, he will not say anything about it, and Wang Jiaotou will naturally not ask.
It's just that Qin Mu's identity has changed, and this knife has become a big stone in the heart of the head of the Wang sect.
It's okay to ask for a knife with a little white face, but if the little white face is a relative outside the staff, then you can't ask for it. But if you want to return it, Wang Tai is really reluctant.
Fortunately, all the tangles were solved as soon as we met.
"Sect Leader Wang, I'm still waiting for the big gun you found for me." Qin Mu held Wang Tai's hand and greeted him with a smile.
"Brother Qin, brother, I will definitely find you a top-notch big gun!" Wang Tai was immediately relieved. He knew the meaning of Qin Mu's words, and the knife was still given to him.
Wang Tai was grateful and took care of him more thoroughly along the way.
Departing from Wujiazhuang to Bianliang, although it is against the water, it is just a tailwind today. So it didn't take half a day to see Bianliang City.
When the towering city wall appeared in front of Qin Mu, he couldn't help but whisper: "Song Ci, I'm here!" ”
