Yuhang Ximen Avenue is full of traffic, merchants and customers flow endlessly, the shops on both sides of the avenue are like forests, so many that people can't see the end, before, few people will pay attention to which one closes, which one changes hands. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

However, since the appearance of firecrackers in Ningzhou, all new shops have lit a string to attract customers, this way has already spread from Ningzhou to Hangzhou, and the people have become accustomed to it.

But today, it is surprising that there is no sound of a new shop, of course, passers-by will not notice, only a few shops next door notice the abnormality.

"Wansan Qianzhuang?"

I don't know how many people were baffled by the four big characters on the signboard of the shop.

It's not that people don't know what the money village is, it's just a kind of casual name, the Ning Dynasty money village is actually a pawnshop, and the people get gold and silver are generally given to the pawnshop to die, and the copper money in exchange for subsidies for firewood, rice, oil and salt, so some people call the pawnshop a gold shop.

In addition, there is a silver vault similar to the Tang Dynasty cabinet in Daning, called the money shop, such as the bank in later generations for people to keep money, but there is no interest but to charge a money insurance fee.

The money bank, because of the different regions, some people as pawnshops, some people as money shops, so the appearance of this Wansan money village did not attract much people's attention. As a result, there was only a handsome boy of fifteen or sixteen years old wandering blindly in this huge shop.

Kuang Shiyi held a feather duster and wandered in Wansan Qian Zhuang for a while, as the second disciple of Wu Sheng, the master of Suzhou Jiuliu Hall, Kuang Shiyi never thought that he would have the opportunity to serve the national teacher.

He had been thinking before, why didn't his eldest brother Kuang Shijia come?

It wasn't until last night that Kuang Shiyi finally understood after hearing Master's explanation, it turned out that the eldest brother couldn't leave, and many things in Suzhou were gradually transferred to the eldest brother, if he came, the master couldn't come.

The eldest brother is smart, shrewd and capable, he has never gone wrong in doing things, and he has learned thousands of words after studying in the student temple for a year, which makes Kuang Shiyi very envious, and now he can only know two or three hundred words, and he often makes mistakes in doing things, so at this moment, he doesn't know what to do.

The tables and chairs were wiped, the floor was swept, and everything that could be wiped was wiped off, so that the Wansan Qian Village was spotless.

"Damn, it's very uncomfortable to be so clean." complained and woke up Kuang Shiyi in a daze.

"Ah, Master!" After Kuang Shiyi woke up, he hurriedly saluted when he saw someone coming.

Dong Ce walked to a mahogany chair that looked very simple and heavy, shook the hem of his clothes and sat down, then lifted Erlang's legs, poured the small teapot he had been holding into his mouth, looked at the cold and tidy shop and said, "No one has come all morning?" ”

Kuang Shiyi hurriedly said: "Back to the master, there is indeed no one. ”

Dong Ce turned his head to look at Kuang Shiyi and said, "Call me the shopkeeper here in the future." ”

"Oh!" Kuang Shiyi doesn't understand very much, why is the title of the national teacher changed?

At first, he called the national teacher the ancestor according to his generation, but the national teacher said that the ancestor could not be called indiscriminately, and let him call it the same as everyone else, which scared him a lot.

But today's Yanjiao has three generations of disciples, and the rules are becoming more and more stringent, and the title can no longer be arbitrary, and even Kong Lican proposed to list the characters and create the name of Yanjiao.

As for who is the senior brother, it's not that Kong Lican doesn't want to divide it, but he doesn't know how many disciples the sect leader has accepted, and who is the first, this time Dong Ce returned to Jiangnan, Kong Lican wrote a letter to mention this matter again, but Dong Ce still didn't have a definite answer.

Yanjiao, it's just a company that Dong Ce used to fool people, at first he only wanted to protect himself, and he didn't want to waste his mind on these titles, but as Yanjiao got bigger and bigger, there were more and more people, and it became the state religion again, and it couldn't be sloppy in terms of seniority.

In the end, Dong Ce could only make a large number of uncles and uncles in the name of accepting apprentices on behalf of his teacher, and classify them to the point of being his peers.

For example, Tu Ping was directly summed up by Dong Ce under his uncle's uncle "Lu Yu", and became Dong Ce's junior brother and the master of the Tea Hall.

However, as soon as this proposal came out, it was immediately opposed by most of the people, and the party Tu Ping even showed that the seniority was too high, and it was the disciple who asked the sect master to collect it on his behalf, and he would never dare to be the same generation as the sect leader.

Therefore, they have become a generation of disciples, or what kind of common surname disciples, do not pay attention to the word generation for the time being, but the Xiaohua Xiaoguo sisters and Zhang Xiaogui, Zhu Shishi and other personal disciples are different, you have to let Dong Ce take the word generation, this can make Dong Ce annoyed, he is not the two religions of Taoism and Buddhism, let alone a martial arts sect, immediately replied to Kong Lican, explaining that Yanjiao is the head of a hundred schools, since it is a hundred schools, you should use the surname of a hundred families, you don't need to get any characters, you want to get your own apprentices, and send the names of the generations to Cao Luorong.

In this way, the word generation has really appeared, such as Kuang Shiyi, who is now following Dong Ce's left and right, is Wu Shenglong's stone character generation, this is still when he asked the sect leader what words to use loudly, Dong Ce directly gave him a stone shock, so his eldest disciple's scientific name is Shi Jia, and the second disciple is naturally Shi Yi!

What Dong Ce didn't expect was that such a brainless scientific name actually made the two brothers very happy, because their brothers have been nameless since childhood, and no matter the family and outsiders, they are called Da Lang and Erlang, and now that they have a scientific name, they are directly taken as names under surprise.

"It's a really quiet day." Dong Ce took a sip of tea and looked at Ximen Avenue where people came and went outside the door, but no one wanted to enter his Wansan Qian Village.

He was not in a hurry, because he was waiting for the merchants of Ningzhou to come over and join forces.

"Hey, it's not open yet." Suddenly, a head reached in from the door, and after glancing at Wansan Qianzhuang, he happened to see that a young man and a young man were staring at him, and he couldn't help but blush, and walked in with an embarrassed smile.

He is about forty years old, slightly chubby, wearing a dark blue brocade robe, with a beard, but his appearance is mediocre, but his eyes are bright and shrewd.

Dong Ce smiled, got up and greeted: "But Feng Yuantai and Feng Yuanwei of Datong Horse Travel next door?" ”

"Hey, my little brother knows us! Hehe, it's easy to say that it's contemptible, I don't know my brother's surname? Feng Yuantai was slightly surprised, then smiled indifferently and regained his composure.

Dong Ce arched his hand and said, "In Xia Xing Wansan, he is the owner of this money bank, and he is in charge of the shop. ”

"Hey, young and promising!" Feng Yuantai was really shocked now, can anyone open a money bank? The other party is still so young, besides, this Xing family, where is the big family of scholars?

While Feng Yuantai was thinking about it, Dong Ce had already asked Kuang Shiyi to cut the tea, and then beckoned Feng Yuantai to sit down, waiting for Feng Yuantai to be polite, while thinking about picking up the teacup, after taking a sip, his eyes couldn't help but light up, and he looked at the teacup in his hand in surprise, and then turned his head to Dong Ce and said, "Hey, what kind of tea is this?" Looking at its brewing method and tea set, it should be the tea art of Yanjiao, but its taste is not Jinling Yuhua or Gusu Biluo, what ......is this?"

"This is Mingtang's new tea, called West Lake Longjing, but it is not yet on the market, only Mingtang's old customers have gotten a little, and if they want to be able to buy it in the market, it may take next year or even longer." Dong Ce explained with a smile.

Longjing was already told by Dong Ce to Tu Ping, and Meng Feng and Tu Ping had already led people to Hangzhou to buy land and plant trees, but there were still too few tea trees, and it was difficult to supply them without a few years of cultivation.

"West Lake Longjing! Could it be that it is our Yuhang's tea? Feng Yuantai, as a native of Yuhang, had never heard of Longjing at all, which had to shock him.

Dong Ce didn't hide it, after all, this matter was not difficult to investigate, even if he explained it to Feng Yuantai, after saying this, Dong Ce deliberately led the topic to Feng Yuantai.

"I heard that since the appearance of Luoyang Bishan Horse Farm, the trade of famous horses seems to be rising, come to think of it, Feng Yuanwai has made a lot of money these days."

Feng Yuantai shook his head again and again when he heard this, and sighed: "Hey, Xing Yuanwai only knows one thing and doesn't know the other, and our horse dealers are not having a good time, the appearance of Luoyang Horse Farm has indeed made many people hot for Bao Ju, but everyone who comes to my shop has to ask if my horse was bought from Luoyang Horse Farm!" You say, Luoyang Racecourse is indeed the heyday of today's famous horse trading, but too many people squeezed into it, and now it is hard to find a horse, speaking of which, the contemptible people only came back from Luoyang last month, and also witnessed a few days of horse racing, that scene, lively, not contemptible boasting, brother, I look at the horse's eyesight is very comparable, ten times betting, won seven times, and earned enough money for this journey! Ho Ho Ho Ho ......"

Looking at Feng Yuantai's smug smile, Dong Ce smiled and said, "Coincidentally, the little brother also came back from Luoyang not long ago, and he also gambled on horses a few times, but unfortunately, he lost all his money!" ”

"Hahaha! That Brother Xing has to learn more from the elder brother, when it's okay, remember to run more to the elder brother's shop, although the real treasure horses of the elder brother are in the suburban manor, but the store has always prepared a few treasure horses with the number of the number one, if the elder brother is interested, just pick, the elder brother will never earn you a cent. ”

Kuang Shiyi watched from the side, listened, and was surprised in his heart, he never thought that in just a few words, two people who were strangers before would actually call each other brothers!

The two were chatting happily, and suddenly, there was a heavy cough outside the door, and then the three people in the shop heard a rough voice and said: "I said shopkeeper, why didn't you notify everyone in advance when you opened the door to do business?" Don't you know this rule? ”

Dong Ce frowned when he heard this, and watched several big men enter his bank.

Feng Yuantai smiled bitterly and whispered to Dong Ce: "Brother Xing, this group of people are idlers who are wandering in the thirteenth lane of the West Gate, but you don't have to underestimate them, they are not terrible, what is terrible is the master behind them, it is rumored that it is a son of the Huang family!" ”

"Huang family!" Dong Ce's brows immediately relaxed, he knew who these people were, it was recorded from the intelligence of Jiuliutang that King Yue had twenty-two sons, and now most of them have left Yuhang Mansion, and one of the remaining ones can fight with Huang Hongyi in Ningzhou, but Huang Hongyi is squishy on the surface and black on the inside, and this person is a real gentleman, and the dirty things he has done are many times stronger than Huang Hongyi's superficial work.
