Chapter Fifty-Nine: A Big Fight
"How old are you?" Zhang Baoer asked. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Fifteen!"
Li Si is two years younger than Zhang Baoer.
Zhang Bao'er heard Li Si say that she was sick a few days ago, and asked with concern: "Is your illness better?" ”
Li Si smiled: "Speaking of which, I am quite blessed, I had a fever a few days ago, and I couldn't move, so if I were someone else, I would have died on the kang long ago." But a Lang Zhong came to my door to diagnose and grab medicine, and cured my disease, and he didn't charge a penny! ”
"Is there such a good thing?" Zhang Bao'er said strangely: "Why does this Langzhong want to treat you?" ”
"I asked, and Lang Zhong told me that it was a father-in-law in the palace who paid for the consultation and asked him to come to see me at the door. I asked him what his father-in-law's name was, and Lang Zhong said that he didn't know either, and the father-in-law just paid the consultation fee and said the address and left! ”
"Father-in-law in the palace?" Zhang Bao'er became more and more surprised: "Do you still recognize the father-in-law in the palace?" ”
"Where do I know the father-in-law in the palace!" Li Si sneered and said: "I've been thinking about this matter for a long time, either this father-in-law is an old man I knew before my adoptive father, or God took pity on me and sent a god to save me!" Either way, I escaped and survived! ”
Li Si is also a poor person, Zhang Baoer was thinking about how to help him, but saw Li Si fall to his knees: "I want to worship you as a teacher, please accept me!" ”
Zhang Baoer's behavior in Tiantong Gambling House gave Li Si a great shock. The reason why Li Si tried every means to bring Zhang Baoer to his home was to apprentice to Zhang Baoer. In Li Si's opinion, if he can learn Zhang Baoer's amazing gambling skills, he will no longer have to worry about his livelihood in this life.
Li Si's sudden move made Zhang Baoer stunned: there were people who wanted to worship him as a teacher.
At this moment, Zhang Baoer was in a trance, how similar the scene in front of her was to Mu Qian's apprenticeship back then.
Seeing that Zhang Bao'er was silent, Li Si kowtowed regardless of it and said, "Master is above, the apprentice has kowtowed to you!" ”
Zhang Bao'er came back to her senses and said to Li Si: "Let's talk about the apprenticeship later, you get up and talk first!" ”
"If you don't agree, the apprentice will kneel and die here!" Li Si said stubbornly.
"Not up?" Zhang Bao'er glared and said, "Believe it or not, I'll turn around and leave immediately!" ”
Seeing that Zhang Baoer was displeased, Li Si hurriedly got up and stood in front of Zhang Baoer respectfully.
"Are you familiar with Chang'an?" Zhang Baoer asked.
Although Li Si didn't know what Zhang Bao'er meant, he still nodded and said: "Except for the apprentices in the Imperial City, I haven't entered Chang'an City, and the apprentices in the other shops are very familiar!" ”
"That's good!" Zhang Bao'er nodded, took out a few ingots of silver from his arms and put them on the table: "You go to a craftsman to repair this house, and then look at the purchase of some things!" Also, the courtyard gate was replaced, and the courtyard wall was also properly painted. ”
"This ......" Li Si was a little stunned.
"I don't want to live in a pig's nest!" Zhang Bao'er admonished: "Give you three days, if the silver is not enough, come to me to get it!" If this little thing can't be solved, then the matter of apprenticeship is not to be discussed! ”
Hearing Zhang Bao'er say this, Li Si reacted at this time, it turned out that Zhang Bao'er was planning to live here in the future, he was ecstatic, patted his chest and said: "It can be done, Master, don't worry, the apprentice promises to make a big change here in three days!" ”
Zhang Baoer's decision to live in Li Si's house was not a whim.
Although the Temple of Mercy and Grace can also be lived, it is not a long-term solution after all. There are many monks in Ci'en Temple, and Zhang Baoer feels inconvenient to go in and out every day. Besides, Li Si is very familiar with Chang'an, living in Li Si's house, Zhang Baoer can just let him be a guide and lead him around, if you want to gain a foothold in Chang'an, you don't know Chang'an and know it, it's not good.
Of course, Zhang Baoer is reluctant to live in Ci'en Temple, and there is another important reason: he can avoid Cen Shaobai.
Cen Shaobai is pedantic and stubborn, always pestering Zhang Baoer, if someone else is so annoying, Zhang Baoer would have been too lazy to take care of it. But Cen Shaobai trusted Zhang Baoer, which made Zhang Baoer unbearable and miserable.
Can't you hide if you can't provoke it? Zhang Baoer had no choice but to make this decision.
When Zhang Bao'er returned to the Temple of Mercy and Grace, it was already dark.
Sure enough, as Zhang Bao'er expected, Cen Shaobai was waiting for him.
"Brother Zhang, you can be regarded as back!" Cen Shaobai couldn't wait to hand over a piece of paper to Zhang Bao'er: "Look at this!" ”
"What the hell are you doing?" Zhang Baoer muttered in her heart and took it suspiciously.
turned out to be another deed, Zhang Baoer couldn't help but wonder when she saw it: "What are you renting a shop for......?"
Cen Shaobai was very dissatisfied with Zhang Baoer's reaction: "You forgot? In the morning, when I saw the shop selling flower ornaments in Guangde Fang, I moved my mind to do a flower decoration business, and I discussed it with you, and you agreed! ”
Zhang Baoer was stunned.
In the morning, Cen Shaobai did tell Zhang Baoer about this, at that time, Zhang Baoer thought Cen Shaobai was verbose, just perfunctory to him, but who knew that Cen Shaobai took it seriously.
"You're too fast, aren't you?" Zhang Baoer stammered.
"Or I'm lucky!" Cen Shaobai said with a happy face: "When I was wandering around the West Market, I happened to see a medium-sized shop, and the person who rented the house had something to rush back to his hometown and was in a hurry to sublet the shop. I signed a deed on the spot and rented the shop, and the man promised to vacate the shop for me tomorrow! ”
Cen Shaobai acted so fast that Zhang Baoer was completely speechless.
After a long time, Zhang Baoer asked, "How much money did you spend on renting a shop?" ”
"One hundred taels of silver!"
"A hundred taels of silver?" Zhang Bao'er almost dropped her jaw in shock: "So expensive? ”
Yesterday, Cen Shaobai had a whimsical idea and spent twenty taels of silver to wrap the back garden of Ci'en Temple for a year.
At that time, Zhang Baoer felt that she couldn't help it, so she helped him take out the twenty taels of silver.
Today, Cen Shaobai signed a deed and rented a shop with lightning speed.
Not to mention whether the flower decoration shop is profitable or not, the rent for just one year will cost one hundred taels of silver. The flower decoration business is a small business, and Cen Shaobai has spent a lot of money.
This time, does Zhang Baoer still have to subsidize him?
"Is this still expensive?" Cen Shaobai explained: "I asked, a shop like this in the West Market costs at least one hundred and fifty taels of silver a year, if it weren't for that person in a hurry to make a move, how could I pick up such a big bargain." ”
Speaking of this, Cen Shaobai rolled up his sleeves: "When I left home this time, I brought a total of two hundred taels of silver, fifty taels of expenses these days, one hundred taels of rent a shop, and fifty taels of silver left, I am ready to use it as capital and let it go!" ”
Zhang Baoer was completely speechless.
