Chapter 50: Snooping
There was nothing to say all night, as for how the old man comforted Yao Erniang, the scalper naturally didn't dare to think about it.
Listening to the general's high-pitched roar, the scalper jumped out of bed after a lazy donkey rolled, and last night he had a dream to let the scalper know the ultimate cure for intestinal carbuncles, so he slept very well, and then went to the bedroom where his father and mother lived.
After a night's rest, the old man's abdominal pain stopped, and he naturally didn't need to cut off something, and the scalper also settled down, so he went out for a run.
For the thirteen children who have been subdued, the scalpers are not in a hurry to train them, although these children are also healthy, but after all, they have been starving and begging for a while, and they should be raised for a few more days.
Besides, at the moment, the scalper's own martial arts are not very good, and he really doesn't know how to start, so after thinking about it, he thinks that he should wait for his senior brother to come back before making plans.
According to the newly developed rules, the scalper ran around his new house, and it didn't take long for him to run to the door of Dinghui Courtyard again.
At this time, in front of the door of Dinghui Courtyard, as usual, there was a long queue of Huazi homeless people, and several leading monks were sweating in the porridge shed stirring the thick millet vegetable porridge, everything was as usual.
Now the scalper also knows that the porridge in Dinghui Courtyard is divided into two parts, the first part is the pure porridge in front of him, and the object is the Huazi homeless people. As for the second part, after the Hanako homeless people have eaten, the coolies and rough men who come to catch the second field will go to work with the work chips issued by the Xiangji Kitchen of Dinghui Temple.
The four types of work corresponding to the red, green, blue and white work plan are pulling fibers by the river, cleaning the waterways, cultivating the Changsheng field outside the city of Dinghui Yuan, and handyman. However, the scalpers inquired clearly, in addition to the cultivation of the Changsheng field of Dinghui Temple, which is considered a work with interests in the temple, the riverside fiber pulling, cleaning the waterways and handymen are all asking Dinghui Yuan to help recruit manpower, and Dinghui Yuan provides a meal for these coolies, and by the way, it also gives a meal to the Hanako homeless people.
I heard that the reason why the Hanako refugees were allowed to eat the first wheel and the coolies to eat the second wheel was because it was easy for the coolies to find a job, but it was not easy for the homeless, so they could only be allowed to eat and leave first, but the beggars were just rubbing into the homeless people to start a meal together.
The scalper came here, not because he was bored to see people drinking porridge, but because he wanted to observe whether there were any wandering little beggars to choose from, but today was the same as yesterday, there were only middle-aged and elderly flowers in the team, and there was no longer a little beggar.
After looking at it, it was sure that it was really gone, and the scalper left in a huff, but when he left, he felt a cold gaze sweeping himself, and when he looked back, he found that the owner of this gaze was the old monk who stuffed him with cooking cakes the day before.
He asked carefully, but the statement he got from the mouths of the little beggars was just that a few people did have a stomachache and were rescued by the monks of Dinghui Temple, and they have never seen it again, as for whether there is a problem with the old monk who sent the cooking cakes, or whether the monks of the Dinghui Temple are real kidnappers, the children can't say, that is, there are such legends in the Huazi group, and at this time, many old Huazi are not afraid of death and squatting on the side of the road waiting for the cooking cakes.
Calling the scalpers want to come, maybe the old flowers coaxed the children not to come to get the cooking cakes, so that they could get a few more.
Therefore, even if he felt that the old monk's gaze made him feel cold, he didn't take it to heart, after all, this Dinghui Temple was really doing good deeds.
In the next few days, the scalpers got up early in the morning to run, and then practiced the snake stick for half an hour, so they took the children to the old store for breakfast and helped with some chores, and in the afternoon, let the children help in the old store, he went home by himself to read and practice calligraphy, and there were still some days before the apprenticeship banquet did not dare to waste his homework. And the old man lay down for three days in a row, and after feeling that his stomach didn't hurt much, he gritted his teeth and got up, and ran to the old store to see the repair effect, and he felt unsatisfactory. However, when he saw the shed that the scalper led people to build, he almost became angry, so he instructed everyone to simply repair the shed around the old shop while the craftsmen were waiting for the calculation of wages before leaving.
After the shed was repaired, the whole formed a convex shape, the head of the embossed character is the three storefronts of the old Huang family, and the belly of the embossed character is a total of 12 sheds of all sizes.
Time in a flash to June 28, this day is also as usual, the scalper finished the morning class and took the children to the old shop to work, now the stove, tables and chairs in the twelve sheds have been renovated, and even in order to process the ingredients, but also spent two times out of his own pocket to dig the well next to the old shop again, and taught the children all kinds of food production and various cooking utensils to operate.
Even after the old man took the lead, he also squeezed out six of the twelve sheds, and invited Aunt Wu who made cooking cakes and steamed buns in the west of the city, Zhang Sige who made Hu oil meat cakes, Granny Long who sold mash and eggs, flower cakes, Wang Er who fried fruit and vegetarian tea in the south of the city, Li Siniang who fried fish and fish soup in the east of the city, and Gu Sanniang who made signed dishes to station, which can be regarded as building this miniature food street.
In addition, the old man also came forward in person and signed an agreement with Mingxiu Building, the largest main store in the city, that in the future, the wine, earth roast and mash used by the old Huang family store and Huangjia Shihui Street will all be supplied by Mingxiu Building, and Mingxiu Lou will also send Bing Pozi to provide ice fish roe for the old store and Shihui Street.
Don't underestimate this ice roe, now in the twelve stores in Huangzhou, from early summer to early autumn, only Mingxiulou can provide a sufficient amount of ice roe, and only Mingxiulou can organize a convoy to transport ice to the north every winter.
Therefore, it is nothing to sell the earth-roasted mash wine from Mingxiu Building, and only the old Huang family shop that can provide ice roe can be among the ranks of the main stores.
The scalper went to the old shop and Shihui Street to stroll, and was caught by his father and reprimanded, the apprenticeship banquet on the sixth day of the seventh month was a ceremony for the old Huang family to raise their eyebrows.
Although depressed, but can not disobey their own old man, so he walked back, halfway up the sky suddenly changed and it rained heavily, not far from the gate of his house, I saw Kong Bo send three monks out.
He didn't pay attention to it, so he walked against the eaves of the houses along the street, but as he passed by, he heard one of the monks whisper: "The first one, this is this, and the beggars are now working in this family's shop." ”
Immediately, the scalper felt a chill down his spine, and seemed to be being looked at by a cold gaze, and immediately walked a few steps quickly. When the three monks walked out of the corner quickly, the scalper walked back to his house and asked Kong Bodao, "What are the three monks doing at my house?" ”
Kong Bo replied: "It's the monk of Dinghui Temple, and he said that there is a water and land puja in Dinghui Temple during the Midyear Festival, and he is here to turn his fate." ”
"Fate?" He had just heard that one of the three monks had mentioned the beggars, and that these people must have ghosts, and he was afraid that he was coming to spy on something, so he immediately asked Kong Bo to take a hat and a coat, and then turned around and went out to follow.
