Chapter 4 Life is as it first sees

Time flies, and three years have passed in a flash

Sixteen-year-old Yang Zheng has been about one meter seven, the martial arts he has practiced since childhood for three years, although he looks thin, his body bones are very strong, handsome appearance, a moon-white Confucian shirt, a vivid and turbid son, at this time the spring has passed halfway, the temperature in Kaifeng Mansion has slowly become warmer, and many girls who love beauty have taken off their heavy fur coats and put on light gauze skirts.

In three years, Yang Zheng in addition to reading and practicing martial arts, he has time to visit Kaifeng Mansion, the largest city on the earth in addition to the modern high-rise buildings, the city function is actually very close to the current city, money pawnshop, restaurant restaurant, clothing store, wholesale market, post station, errands, all the functions you can use, can be found in this city, of course, there are things that are not available in later generations, Qinglou.

Yang Zheng was standing at the door of the Emerald Red Mansion at this time, of course he didn't come to visit the Qinglou, although he was very interested in the most famous Qinglou in Kaifeng Mansion, but he was worried that Emperor Renzong would get him into the palace as a eunuch, for the sake of his own life, it was better to stay away from this place.

He came to send money, although the name of this Cuihong Mansion is cheesy, the cost is not bad, the patriarch Yang Bang's grandson Yang Bin is one year older than him, since the age of fifteen, he has been mixed with flowers and casinos, and now he often stays in the Qinglou, this is the second time that the Qinglou steward has sent someone to the Yang Mansion to ask for money.

The reason why this emerald red house is so famous is that it can satisfy everyone.

There are Qing people who are proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and who are as beautiful as flowers, as well as Hongqi people who are full of amorous and knowledgeable, and there are also blond-haired and blue-eyed exotic beauties in the Western Regions and other places.

There are not only beauties, but there are also the best wines, the freshest melons and fruits in the Great Song Dynasty, and the biggest casinos, as long as you have money.

Yang Bin has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and his talent is outstanding, and he is really the first among the younger generation of the Yang family, and then he can't read a basket of words, and he can only rely on the silver in his pocket to mix in the Qinglou, but he is still a pick, and he doesn't want to be expensive.

After waiting at the door for a while, a young man with five big and three thick walked out of the emerald red building with a yawn, followed by a middle-aged man with a lewd face.

Yang Zheng took out two silver tickets with a white tael from his arms, and handed them to a middle-aged man with an expressionless face, the middle-aged man carefully checked the silver tickets, and turned around and went back with a perfunctory arch towards Yang Zheng.

"The last two hundred taels, you can do it yourself", Yang Zheng looked at Yang Bin, who yawned for a long time, without a trace of guilt, and withdrew his words of persuasion.

"ungrateful, didn't you just use a few hundred taels of silver..."

Yang Bin stretched his waist and looked at Yang Zheng and said mockingly.

Yang Zheng really wanted to give him a few big mouths, and he took him to the top tank at the beginning, but now it has become a great opportunity to give him a great opportunity, Yang Bang sent someone to let him redeem people, and this is what he said, it is really a grandson, but in this era when filial piety is greater than heaven, there is nothing wrong with Yang Bang's approach.

Shaking his head and turning to leave, he was afraid that he couldn't help but take out the three-edged army thorn on his calf and give it to him.

He really has no money, in the past three years, the gold and silver rewarded by Renzong have been almost spent, in the past three years, although he also wants to make a little money to spend, but most of the time is spent on studying, and now earning money has become the most urgent problem.

The business of the Great Song Dynasty is very developed, and there is almost already a foundation for capital sprouts, and there are naturally many ways to make money, but it takes time.

The fastest way to make money is naturally to find a cheap second grandfather.

"No money?"

Yang Zheng looked at the old man in front of him in a daze and asked incredulously.

The old man used all kinds of dishonorable means to take away most of the things rewarded by the emperor, how could he have no money.

"Na, this is ten taels of silver, is there more..."

Yang Shu took out a silver ingot from his arms in distress and reluctantly handed it to Yang Zheng.

Yang Zheng didn't understand, this old man was alone, and his usual life was not extravagant, where did the money go.

The old man didn't give it, so Yang Zheng had to leave with ten taels of silver, ten taels of silver, saving a little bit is enough for ten days and half a month.

Out of Yang's Mansion, Yang Zheng purposefully walked around the street, looking for business opportunities to get rich, to find business opportunities, the first choice is naturally the West Market, the largest commodity distribution center in Kaifeng Prefecture.

Walking in the lively West Market, there are endless shouts and shouts, and there are even foreign businessmen from different countries.

Walking around, Yang Zheng forgot his original purpose, lingering in front of various food stalls, people who do business in this era regard credibility as more important than life, even if it is a small stall vendor, they will never use gutter oil and the like, real green food.

Eat a little here, eat a little there, Yang Zheng suddenly realized that one hand had taken away his money bag unconsciously.

Yang was standing in front of a stall selling sour plum soup with a skewer of roast mutton, eating a little too much and needing a cup of sour plum soup to help digestion.

Finally, it was Yang Zheng's turn, a simple cup made of bamboo tubes, and a selected reed stalk, which were not much different from the milk tea of later generations.

"Guest officer, two cents" The old woman carefully handed the cup to Yang Zheng and said kindly.

"Good..."

I couldn't wait to take a sip first, took out my money bag and prepared to pay, but I didn't take out anything for a long time under the gaze of a middle-aged woman.

"My money is gone..."

"Woo ......"

The people in the back queue couldn't stand it anymore.

Yang Zheng has never been so embarrassed.

"It's okay, I'll give it next time", the old woman was still kind, waved her hand at Yang Zheng indifferently, and continued to make sour plum soup for others.

Embarrassed to leave the stall with the sour plum soup, Yang Zheng was eager to dismantle the thief, but unfortunately, in the face of the bustling flow of people, he could only curse in his heart.

The money bag was gone, and Yang Zheng was not interested in shopping, and began to walk back with the flow of people.

Maybe it was because he was not happy, Yang Zheng subconsciously stared at the passing crowd, but he didn't expect to see a sneaky little beggar when he was about to walk out of the West Market.

The child was wearing tattered clothes, and his eyebrows could be vaguely seen on his dirty face, and he was sneakily following the two richly dressed women in front of him, one big and one small.

It seems that sneaky is not necessarily a thief, and Yang Zheng secretly followed.

The two women were defenseless, the little beggar's eyes fell on the little girl's waist, a bulging purse hung on the waist, the purse was made of the best Su Jin, the purse alone was worth a lot of money, not to mention the contents inside.

When the group came to a circus, the flow of people suddenly increased, and the little beggar, who had been preparing for a long time, made a move, and in the dense crowd, the dark little hands slowly stretched out to the little girl's purse.

At the moment when the little beggar was about to succeed, Yang Zheng walked in shortly and grabbed the little beggar's wrist with his right hand.

The plan is to catch the little beggar when the little beggar wins, and come to a person to get the stolen goods, but unfortunately it backfired, maybe Yang Zheng's actions were too obscene, when his hand was about to grab the little beggar, the woman next to the little girl suddenly turned around and protected the little girl in her arms, and Yang Zheng's right hand was taken by the woman, missed the little beggar, and grabbed the woman's plump thigh.
