Chapter 31 [The First Shrewd Man of the Tang Dynasty]
"Out of the outer chamber?"
Lao Cheng's eyes lit up, and he felt that his wife had some truth.
However, Lao Cheng immediately shook his head and pondered: "King Zhao of Xifu is a masterpiece of his generation, and he only knows how to fight and fight in his life, he has no interest in raising an outer room, and he has no time to raise an outer room......
Mrs. Cheng had a different opinion, and continued to speculate: "If it's not the outer room, it may also be a confidant." King Zhao of Xifu is invincible in the world, and he is actually the most powerful hero of the Sui and Tang dynasties. ”
Lao Cheng listened attentively.
The more Mrs. Cheng spoke, the more confident she became, and then said: "Even if he doesn't care about men and women, he will still let girls chase and rob, he has been fighting with the army for many years, maybe he will be hooked by girls somewhere, and he will be moved and keep a seed." ”
Lao Cheng was thoughtful.
Mrs. Cheng suddenly remembered something again, and hurriedly added: "I also asked our child, saying that his master is from Hebei, Cheng Zhijie, let me ask you, when King Zhao of Xifu swept the world, did he also conquer Hebei?" ”
Lao Cheng was stunned for a moment, and muttered: "It's from Hebei ......"
Mrs. Cheng said again: "Also, our child said that he was born with divine powers, and you were there when he said this, so he won't forget it so quickly." ”
……
Lao Cheng suddenly took a deep breath and said, "After so many times of corroboration, I am really seventy or eighty percent sure." ”
Mrs. Cheng suddenly became excited, and said hurriedly: "Then what are you waiting for, please come into the mansion quickly." This is the son of King Zhao of Xifu, maybe it is a new generation of war gods. ”
"No hurry!"
Lao Cheng waved his hand, his rugged face flashed with shrewdness, and he muttered: "Do things before and after, there are three points of malice first, this kind of thing can't be too purposeful, otherwise it will lose the meaning of getting acquainted with Weimo." ”
Mrs. Cheng was a little anxious and said, "Will it be preempted by other families?" Datang is not just you. ”
Lao Cheng suddenly grinned, and said with a smug face: "Grab it, grab it, who can rob me Cheng bite gold?" The old man has already left a foreshadowing, and I made a bet with him. ”
Mrs. Cheng frowned at first, then suddenly realized, her little hand suddenly covered her mouth, and she said with a look of surprise: "You mean our child's apprenticeship?" ”
Lao Cheng chuckled, his eyebrows fluttered: "If it weren't for that, would I have eaten enough?" As the founder of the country, how could a husband make a bet with a homeless person. To tell you the truth, when my husband saw him for the first time today, he had already made up his mind to do it. I don't care if he is the son of King Zhao or not, I have dates or not, let's talk about it first. Does Madame know what it's called? This is called taking precautions, winning thousands of miles away, hum, don't be so surprised, this is all my ability to bite the gold......"
Mrs. Cheng smiled and said, "You are a bad old man, very bad." ”
……
Lao Cheng suddenly changed his style, and muttered: "This matter is still a silent encounter, the stinky boy has been in a mess for fifteen years, he has never done good things, and there is nothing he dare not do bad things, Lao Tzu originally thought that this child was wasted, and he just had the heart to try again, but he didn't expect that suddenly the wind and clouds came, and this kid actually made a meritorious contribution to the family." Tsk, what's this called? In the words of the steppe Turkic barbarians, this is called the posture of the earth dog to become a wolf......"
Mrs. Cheng was not happy, and suddenly reached out to pinch Lao Cheng's ears, and said angrily: "That's the meat that fell from my body, and it is also the seed laid by your Cheng Zhijie, what kind of earth dog and wolf, listen to the stinging ears, my son is called Fu Jiang, do you understand Fu Jiang?" ”
Lao Cheng smiled, and said very stinkily: "Fu Jiang is also Lao Tzu's seed, without Lao Tzu's hard work, no matter how good the field is, no matter how good the field is, it will not be able to grow good crops." ”
This is the teasing words of the old couple.
Mrs. Cheng glanced at him and scolded with a smile: "You bad old man, look at your beauty." ”
Suddenly, he laughed and grabbed the corner of Lao Cheng's clothes and said: "After the business is done, it's time to do the sex, the waist still hurts, go to my room to try it, the old lady will give you a soft taste in person, and serve you every night!" ”
One night?
Do you want Lao Tzu's life?
Lao Cheng's face was pale, and he said hurriedly: "There is still business to be done for the husband, and the lady must not be lustful." Your distant third brother hasn't left yet, let's go find him and talk about something together. ”
As he spoke, he hurriedly raised his feet and rushed to the house with a bang.
Later, Mrs. Cheng gritted her teeth angrily, and said angrily: "The Cui family has just been smashed in the warehouse, what are you still going to do with him?" ”
Lao Cheng didn't reply, and replied loudly: "The matter of credit, our Cheng family has to bear it, that child and Chu Mo are ready to engage in industry, and they can't always let them smash and rob." Tens of thousands of iron pots are involved, and the Cui family is not allowed to pay on credit, so this money has to be paid by the Cheng family, and I can't wait for the Cui family to gossip, then it's too late, and I, Cheng Zhijie, can't afford to lose this person. ”
Mrs. Cheng was in a hurry, caught up and said: "Tens of thousands of iron pots, to say the least, you have to pay two or three thousand yuan, Cheng Zhijie, are you crazy?" Do you know how much money you have in the treasury at home, and we can't get 2,000 yuan when we are full. ”
"Then sell the house and sell the land!"
Lao Cheng waved his hand domineeringly, and said in a deep voice: "Today I heard a hint from that kid, and vaguely pondered that there was some truth in it. ”
Mrs. Cheng was slightly stunned and said, "What did the kid hint at you?" Why doesn't the old lady remember? ”
Lao Cheng glanced at her and snorted lightly: "A woman's family is a woman's family, no matter how shrewd she is, she can only play tricks at home." Husband, remind you, you recall what he said when he made a bet with me! ”
"What?"
"Three months later, my Cheng family will be the richest man in the Chang'an Mansion."
Mrs. Cheng was a little puzzled and curious: "What do you mean by this?" ”
Lao Cheng smashed his mouth and groaned: "Thinking about my husband left and right, I'm afraid that the child is ordering me, he is hinting to us, as long as my Cheng family pays for him to resist the debt, then his property will be distributed to us, and after three months, the money can be divided." ”
Mrs. Cheng smiled and said very indifferently: "Do you really believe that his industry makes money?" I heard from our family that they were going to fish, and if they caught it, they didn't sell it, they wanted to keep it for pickling, and then they sold salted fish all over the street. ”
The implication is self-evident, it is clear that you can't make a lot of money selling salted fish.
But Lao Cheng looked solemn, and suddenly said: "As a husband, I think that this industry can really make a lot of money." ”
"Are you stupid?" Mrs. Cheng gave him a blank look.
Lao Cheng snorted lightly, his rugged old face was shrewd, and suddenly he looked carefully left and right, lowered his voice and leaned into Mrs. Cheng's ear, and said, "To marinate salted fish, you need salt." ”
Mrs. Cheng was stunned for a moment, and then screamed.
"My God, salt?"
Lao Cheng covered her mouth and scolded in a low voice: "Be quiet, don't let your distant third brother hear it, this matter can only be swallowed by our Cheng family, no matter which family does not let it, even if it is the Qinghe Cui family, it has to be secretly hidden." ”
After speaking, he saw his wife nodding again and again, so he carefully took his hand off her mouth, and said in a low voice: "Salt is very expensive, countless times more expensive than fish, but that child wants to use salt to marinate salted fish, if it is just like this, then the old man is just a child who does not understand financial affairs, but he bet with me in front of everyone, saying that my Cheng family will be rich and rich in three months......"
Mrs. Cheng's eyes lit up, and she vaguely guessed what Lao Cheng was referring to.
Sure enough, Lao Cheng lowered his voice and said: "When he spoke, the confidence on his face couldn't be pretended, so he figured out the secrets for his husband at once." He knows how to make salt, and he must have a way of making salt. ”
