Chapter Twenty-Eight: Stand in Line, Don't Squeeze!
The panting old Deng Tou trotted into Song Xing's courtyard, and before he could call Song Xing, he bumped into the old gentleman of the private school who was about to go out.
"Hey, old king, you're here to save money too?" Old Deng Tou is a serious peasant, he doesn't have so much Wen Zou Zou's statement, and he doesn't respect Mr. Teaching so much, it's not that he intends to do this, but people who are struggling under the food and clothing line will not consider respecting teachers and valuing education!
"The old man has read the Four Books and Five Classics, and practiced the way of Confucius and Mencius, how could he be as obsessed with copper smell as you are, and I came here today to persuade Song Xiucai not to miss the future because of the copper smell!" After that, he flicked his sleeves and was about to leave, but he never thought that the salt that he had just put in his sleeve was thrown outγγγγγγ
This, this, Song Xing laughed in his heart, this was just to eat an extra steamed bun, this old gentleman had read the notes countless times, and he was stunned for a moment to show that the reader was different and smashed!
The key is to slap his old face hard!
Mr. Wang looked down on the peasants in the village very much in his heart, everything was inferior, only reading was high, this is the outlook on life of all scholars in this era except for Song Xing!
What I said in this call just now is right, and my posture is stable enough, but I was spoiled by that bag of salt!
"Oh, old sir, your salt has fallen!" Old Deng Tou pointed to the salt on the ground and said a word, and went straight into the house.
The afternoon of early spring was not hot, but at this moment, Mr. Wang only felt that the midsummer sun favored him!
It's hot! Salt is so hot!
Fortunately, Lao Deng was busy saving money and didn't stay in the courtyard!
Pick it up? Readers who disdain copper will be swept away!
Don't pick it up, it's salt worth 30 yuan, I'm here for this today, in the face of naked reality, Sven and Qinggao are worthless!
Immediately looked around, no one paid attention to him, the old gentleman picked it up and flew and disappeared into the courtyard!
It was the first time that people who came in from the outside could not help but be surprised to see this old gentleman, who had never been in a hurry to walk, walking so fast for the first time!
"Song Xiucai, do you still have salt, I have 300 Wen here!" As soon as Old Deng Tou entered the room, he took out the copper coin and put it on the square table.
Hot tea, white flour steamed buns, and salt are served!
Old Deng Tou was ecstatic, he was finally not late, and right now, there was nothing more exciting for him than swallowing this steamed bun!
Along the way, he was also worried that Song Xing thought that 300 Wen was too little and would not accept it!
The pen, ink, paper, and inkstone were still on the table, but the coco was grinding, Song Xing continued to write the note, and he began to ponder in his heart, the basic content of this thing is almost the same, if only he could find a place to print!
"Three hundred wen, 6 wen per month, I will let Coco send it to your home on the first day of the first month, and on the first day of April next year, bring the note to settle the principal!"
"Okay!" Old Deng Tou put salt on his shoulder, and when he saw the people coming outside one after another, he said in his heart, it was finally not too late!
"Brother, look, there are a lot of people here!" Song Xing's writing brush was already very weak, and he wrote two words in a row, and his wrist was a little sleepy, and when he lowered his head and moved his wrist, Coco said in surprise.
Song Xing looked up, good guy, there are more than a dozen people here, and there are still many people in the village who have spare money!
It is true that there are definitely those who wait and see, such as Forrest Gump and Song Chaoye!
However, Song Xing knew that since ancient times, there have been many people in the Great Heavenly Empire who have a herd mentality in everything!
"Song Xiucai, at home, γγγγγ"
"Oops, don't squeeze me γγγγ"
"I'll come firstγγγγ"
These dozen people rushed in together, and the scene immediately became popular, for a white-flour steamed bun and a bag of salt, if you don't get it, you will fight on the spot!
"I said, don't crowd, queue up!" When the scene was so chaotic that Song Xing was at a loss, a thunderous sound came into everyone's ears, and Xiu Liu, who was spinning a pair of iron balls in his hand, walked in leisurely, and everyone consciously parted ways.
Everyone saw that it was a holiday, so they had to give a "face" and lined up!
"I said Song Xiucai, why don't you respond to this good thing? If it weren't for the shouting in the village today, I wouldn't have known! Hugh Liu asked others to line up, and he paced into the house himself, complaining in his words!
"Liuzi, you're here, I'm just starting here, and it's not too late to think about informing you another day!" Song Xing raised his eyelids and said.
For Xiu Liu, Song Xing doesn't say disgusted, but he doesn't like it, if it weren't for this special filial piety, Song Xing wouldn't have bothered with him!
As the saying goes, "filial piety comes first", a person who knows how to honor his parents is not inherently bad!
Indeed, Xiu Liu is also a villager who peeks at other people's daughters-in-law taking a bath, bullies and bullies honest villagers, and is just ruthless in fights, compared to the grain chief and village chief who are the victims, he is undoubtedly a good person!
Looking for Xiu Liu, this is not Song Xing's clichΓ©, he really wants to talk to Xiu Liu, after all, lending institutions have collection departments, even if he is a one-person "enterprise", the collection work must be done by someone, and Xiu Liu is the best candidate!
"I have three pieces of money here, save it for me!" Xiu Liu took out three strings of money and handed them to Coco, and began to drink tea and eat steamed buns by himself.
Interest or something, he didn't mention it at all, in his eyes, Song Xing is a scholar, he won't lie to him, besides, he is a ruffian, and there is no good fruit to eat if he is deceived by him!
"Writing notes or something, it's not too late for you to write later, there are still a lot of people outside, don't make people wait!" Don't talk about Hugh Liu, it's a piece of material, and you know how to prioritize!
"Okay, then let the people outside in!" Song Xing nodded.
"Zhou Laofu!" Xiu Liu still sat still, but shouted, and immediately, a villager in his thirties at the front of the line trotted into the house.
Hot tea, white flour steamed buns, and salt are served!
However, Zhou Laofu had no place to sit, so he could only stand and drink tea and eat steamed buns, but he didn't finish eating, and left half of it in his arms, the family hadn't eaten white flour steamed buns for a long time, leaving half of them, plus the steamed buns sent at the end, seven or eight people in the family could eat a bite!
Write the note, press the handprint, or the same process!
"Brother Zhou, you save 200 yuan, 4 yuan per month, and the cocoa will be sent to you on the first day of the first month, and on the first day of April next year, take the note to settle the principal!" This is a process that cannot be saved, and Song Xing must explain it clearly to customers.
"Okay, thank you Song Xiucai!" This business is done, and the customer has to thank him, which is really a small achievement!
However, if he saves 200 Wen and takes away a bag of salt, he will vomit blood at a loss!
"Next, Tang Wuliu!" Hugh Liu rolled the iron ball, took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and continued to shout.
"It's coming!" Tang Wuliu, who had been waiting in the courtyard for a long time, limped into the house.
Tang Wuliu, this name is a typical name of the Ming Dynasty, because this era is basically illiterate, naming children is a problem, plus there are many children, so the simplest way is used, the child's name is the number of the parents' age added, for example, when Tang Wuliu was born, the age of his parents added up to fifty-six years old, then his name is Wuliu, and when adding the surname, it is Tang Wuliu!
Another way is to take it according to the age of the grandfather, for example, when the child is born, the grandfather is thirty-nine years old, then the child's name is Sanjiu!
Even if it's such a simple way to choose a name, it is only the patent of boys, most girls do not have names, and after they grow up and get married, they only call their surnames, except for rich families!
"I said Tang Wuliu, I didn't see it, you still have spare money!" Xiu Liu drank tea and said slowly.
