Chapter Forty-Six: Firecrackers Rang Out in the Restaurant Again
On a spring day, the traffic is busy, and the hustle and bustle is goodbye to the cold winter; Busy feet, coming and going, noisy and noisy.
On the tenth day of the first lunar month, Sanshui County was busy, and the county commander Cheng Lingxiang licked the sauce that he accidentally rubbed on the corner of his mouth just now when he ate cucumber dip in spicy sauce, and tasted the fragrance, took two officials, and wandered slowly on the street.
In order to be close to the people and not to disturb the people, he did not wear official clothes, but wore casual clothes with a belly that was not too big, and stood in front of the trading stall for a short time from time to time, and did not say his identity, so that he seemed to be a good official.
Thinking that he could solve the emergency in time, he also took two heavily armed officials behind him, followed, and shouted loudly one by one.
Cheng Lingxiang walked very slowly, immersed in this kind of spontaneous greetings from people, always with a smile on his face, but he was thinking in his heart, the idea for the master is really good, the good reputation has gone out, and he will show his face in the county as much as possible, so that everyone knows which county order is in the thirties to send grain and oil to poor people regardless of rest.
A thousand stone of food, a lot, a family to give half a stone is enough to eat for a month, two thousand, all of them have arrived, but they have not left a grain of grain, and the same is true of the oil, when it was first sent, the family was grateful to Dade, so that they felt comfortable in their hearts.
Thanks to Zhangjia Zhuangzi, otherwise how could he get such a good reputation, listening to the people below, many people are praising the county magistrate, so it seems that it is not difficult to rise a liter.
Cheng County Ling thought while walking, and from time to time returned the salute to those who greeted him, and the image of being close to the people rose sharply for a while, and as he walked, he came to the most prosperous street in the county, with shops on both sides and pedestrians on the street.
"Prosperous, this is the official's expectation." Cheng Xianling sighed with emotion, and the two officials in the back immediately came up to flatter, and the three of them acted and complemented each other.
As he was walking, there was a sudden deafening crackling sound in front of him, which startled Cheng Xianling and the people on the street.
"Let's go, follow the official to the front and see who made such a move." Cheng Xianling was really bold, and when he heard the voice, he didn't retreat to the yamen to find someone to come over, but walked directly to the other side with two yamen.
When they arrived at the place, the sound had not stopped, and there were already many people who had stopped to watch, and some people were still shouting something, trying to compete with the continuous voice.
"Where is this? Tell the officer. Cheng Xianling pointed to a three-story building in front of him and asked the two officials next to him.
"What did you say, my lord?" The officials didn't hear it clearly.
"I ask you what kind of place this is?" Cheng County Ling also shouted.
"It should be the opening of the restaurant, I heard yesterday that someone here bought a place and wants to open a restaurant, called Qianwei Town Water House." The official heard it clearly this time, and replied loudly.
"What's going on?"
"I don't know, my lord, I saw that Song Gongzi was also standing in that place, so I brought him here." The official didn't know either, so he shouted and saw that Song Jinggong was at the door, so he hurriedly ran over and pulled Song Jinggong to the side of the county order.
At this time, the sound finally stopped, the sound was gone, but the sensation caused was not small, and many people were talking about what the sound of this thing was, it was really too big, it was really shocking.
"Zijin is actually here, could it be that this restaurant is opened by Zijin?" Cheng County's ears are still ringing, and he still needs to shout when he speaks.
"Back to my lord, this restaurant is not opened by students, but someone from elsewhere, just listen to the name, you know, 'Thousand Tastes Town Water Residence', just want to suppress Baiwei Pavilion and Guanshui Building." Song Jinggong also pressed his ears, he was close to that side just now, and now his ears were still echoing with sound.
"Oh, Zijin can know what's going on with that party?" Cheng County Ling saw that someone opened it, and nothing happened, so it was not easy to find trouble, so he was interested in the sound.
Song Jinggong nodded, "I know, it's a firecracker, and the students gave it to them for the opening, 100,000 rings." ”
"What are firecrackers?" Cheng Xianling felt that there was a lot of chaos around him now, and pulled Song Jinggong to a place with few people, so he asked, and his voice was not as loud as just now.
"The things made by Zhangjia Zhuangzi for some festive things are lively, and they can also help promote one or two." Song Jinggong was also a little more comfortable than just now, and his ears were not ringing so much.
"Oh? Zhangjia Zhuangzi again? What kind of 100,000 firecrackers were sent by Zijin, how much does it cost? ”
Originally, Cheng County Ling was surprised, as soon as he heard that it was Zhangjia Zhuangzi, a person first appeared in his heart, there was that person, everything was in line with common sense, and he was a little surprised by that person's generosity, so much, how much did it cost?
"My lord, I don't have much money, it's just two taels of silver, this thing is cheap, it costs more than two taels of silver to open the business, it's cost-effective, this time the student is giving it away, so that others can also know that there is such an object, and it's easy to buy at that time."
Song Jinggong explained that this is exactly the idea of Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, to sell directly, people may not buy it, give some out first, and when it has an effect, others will buy it, and the sale is more than two taels of silver, and the cost is not much money.
After explaining this, Song Jinggong saw that Cheng County's order also nodded in agreement, and continued: "Also, this thing can ward off evil spirits, just like firecrackers burned during the New Year, this is what Zhangjia Zhuangzi uses during the New Year this year." ”
"Oh? And how is this usage? That's right, firecrackers, this thing is louder than firecrackers, warding off evil spirits, indeed warding off evil spirits, there is auspiciousness in the front, and evil spirits in the back, that person is really powerful, in this case, Zijin also sold some to the yamen, 200,000 rings, and it can be used on the eve of the new year. ”
Cheng Xianling's mind turned, thinking that in this way, it would be more lively, 200,000 rings, five taels of silver is enough, and it is worth making such a big move.
"Adults don't have to pay for it, Zhuangzi is now asking many people to rush to work, and they will be sent to adults the day after tomorrow." Song Jinggong doesn't need to go back and ask the little boy again for this kind of thing, he understands what to do, a few taels of silver from the yamen is not worth asking, and it is good to be able to use this little thing to send a favor.
Cheng Xianling thought about it, and didn't continue to rush to give money, there are more things given by Zhuangzi, not bad, just the thousand stones of grain cost more than 100 taels of silver, Zhuangzi is really atmospheric.
With firecrackers, Cheng Xianling's mood was better, and he didn't continue to shop, he said a few words to Song Jinggong, and went back with two officials, wanting to make a good arrangement for how to spend the fifteenth year, and this year is not just a lantern matter.
Cheng County Ling returned to the yamen with a good mood, thinking that there was nothing going on, but as soon as he entered it, Zhang Mingsheng, the county magistrate there, hurriedly found him.
"My lord, Ben Zhou sent an urgent document, saying that Ben Zhou has reported Xiangrui, and in order to find out the truth and falsehood, Si Gong will be sent to join the army in Sanshui County on Yuan Xi."
"Oh, I know, it's the tenth day of the first month today, they let people come, and five days later, the cucumbers are gone, I think of Xiangrui, come on, just right, two days later, Song Jinggong is going to come to the yamen to send firecrackers, I told him, let him deal with it over there, the cucumbers should grow a lot, and they can eat a stubble, and when they come, they will be gone."
Cheng Xianling listened to what the county Cheng said, took the paperwork and looked at it again, pouted and said, he was really a little dissatisfied with the people above, at this time, he remembered to use the urgency, what did he do earlier, and he didn't know whether the cucumbers sent up were eaten by them or given to others.
"My lord, do you have to kill those cucumber seedlings? Can I transfer some of it? It's just spring, and there's been no cucumbers for a long time. ”
Zhang Mingsheng, the county leader, was a little reluctant, he had an old mother at home, his body had not been very good, he liked to eat one or two bites of light, he basically gave his mother the cucumbers he bought, seeing that his mother could eat more, he was also happy, if this cucumber was suddenly gone, what would his mother eat? It's really not good, just ask Song Jinggong to order carrots, that thing is not bad to fry and eat.
Cheng Xianling didn't think so, but he couldn't help it, he couldn't sell Zhangjia Zhuangzi, just rely on other people's skills, maybe there will be better things to get out in the future, plus those two masters, and they may still ask for others at that time.
At this time, listening to the county Chengyi, my heart moved, and I felt that it seemed that it was okay, and when people came, they would get some fresh cucumbers to show them, and when they went to see the cucumber seedlings, they should be able to move some of them first, and they should be able to survive a little, and they should be able to eat them themselves.
Thinking so, he no longer waited for Song Jinggong to come over, and arranged for someone to report to Zhangjia Zhuangzi, in order to make people believe it, he even asked people to bring the documents handed down above, and also said his thoughts.
Go to Zhangjia Zhuangzi is the official who went to the beginning, he heard that he went to Zhangjia Zhuangzi, immediately happy, last time I went, the people were well entertained, and when I came back, I got some money, this time I had a chance again, I promised to come down without delay, I actually rode a horse, and rushed away.
The speed of this horse riding is fast, usually need to set up a car to rush for half a day's journey, the fast horse arrived at the place in less than two hours, people who don't know see such a fast horse, and think it is a six-hundred-mile urgent report.
When the official arrived in Zhuangzi, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan were studying with their father, and the two of them really admired Zhang's father.
This is Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, if they were replaced by other children, they would have been scared to cry by so many things, Zhang's father is enjoying it now, teaching students can be so easy, then the master may have become famous, these two children, what to teach is only once, the two children will ask a few questions in two days, and when they tell themselves, the things that will be taught will be.
