Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Rich Merchant

The stall owner wiped his hands with a dirty rag, limped to the table, and said respectfully to Zhang Yu, "My lord, what do you command?" ”

"Wang Lao Wu, why is your shop so deserted." Zhang Yu gulped a bowl of soup, wiped his mouth and said.

"Hey, adults don't know, there are many noodle restaurants on this street, but my small door and small noodles can't be on the table. In addition, two years ago, my mother-in-law ran away with a rich man, and I still have to take my eight-year-old son with me, and my legs and feet are not good, so this shop can't take care of it. If it weren't for some old comrades-in-arms who came to eat a bowl of noodles every once in a while, I would have closed the door a long time ago. Wang Lao Wu said with a worried face.

Hu Ye took a look and found that there was indeed a little doll about ten years old in the house, who was picking vegetables for his father. was supposed to be studying in the academy at this age, but he became Wang Lao Wu's helper early.

"Uncle Wang, don't worry, this situation will be resolved immediately." Zhang Fu, a foodie, had already finished eating a bowl of noodles like a hungry wolf, and now he was walking to the soup pot, talking to Wang Lao Wu as he walked, and then scooped up a bowl of mutton soup and drank it.

"Hey, Young Master Fu, don't comfort the old man, with my skills, where can I compete for those noodle restaurants with chefs." Wang Lao Wu shook his head and said.

"Haha, Uncle Wang, you have to worry too much about this. I don't dare to pack tickets for anything else, but when it comes to ghost ideas, my brother is the best in the world. Coming to the table with mutton soup, Zhang Fu pointed at Hu Ye and said.

Wang Lao Wu squinted at Hu Ye, not much older than his cub, could it be the brother in the mouth of Young Master Fu?

Hu Ye smiled and saluted Wang Lao Wu, for this kind of disbelieving look, Hu Ye was no longer surprised, which thing he had done before had not received countless such looks.

"Boy, if there is any way to say it quickly, do you want my old subordinate to beg you." Zhang Yu's volume suddenly became higher, and it seemed that he was blaming Hu Ye for selling Guanzi.

Hu Ye looked at Zhang Yu, this elder who was still kind last night, and now he is looking at himself for the sake of a subordinate, even if you are angry today, you don't have to sprinkle it on my nephew. But when Hu Ye looked around, it seemed that he was just making this punching bag by himself.

Sadly, weishenme herself always does thankless things? He has been cheated countless times for giving advice to Zhu Di, and today he wanted to help a group of Zhang Yu's subordinates, but because of a mysterious smile, he was scolded again. Didn't you see that Zhang Fu's face was already smiling like a flower?

"Uncle Zhang is serious, how dare my nephew think like this." Hu Ye was very aggrieved, but he had to make a look like I was wrong, and it was appropriate to use the opera written by Guan Hanqing to describe himself.

Hu Ye then hooked his hand towards Wang Lao Wu and motioned for Wang Lao Wu to lean his ear over. Then Wang Lao Wu's ear began to whisper.

Zhang Fu drank mutton noodle soup, but his neck stretched out, he just wanted to hear what Hu Ye said, but unfortunately, Hu Ye's voice was very small, and only Wang Lao Wu could hear it.

Jin Zhong was not interested in this matter, so after eating the noodles, he made his own copper coins. Zhang Yu looked at Wang Lao Wu's eyes, sometimes nervous, sometimes stretching, sometimes nodding, sometimes shaking his head, as if he didn't believe the method given to him by Hu Ye.

"This little brother, do you say these are true? You can't take medicine indiscriminately. After listening to Hu Ye's method, Wang Lao Wu said with some hesitation.

"Uncle Wang, don't doubt the correctness of my brother, whatever he teaches you to do, you can do it, if there is no problem, I will be responsible." Zhang Fu had already drunk two bowls of mutton soup, and said with the hand that had just wiped his mouth, patting his chest.

Hu Ye couldn't help but make up for Zhang Fu's disgusting movements, grandma hadn't washed her hands when she patted her shoulder before! And that slap on the head!

The men in the army are different, and when Wang Lao Wu saw Zhang Fu's sad and elegant movements, not only was he not uncomfortable, but he felt that Zhang Fu had won the true biography of Zhang Yu.

"Since I have the auxiliary young master as a guarantor, I will try it tomorrow."

Wang Lao Wu said reluctantly.

Hu Ye felt that he was really not suitable for the Ming Dynasty, in addition to being able to fool Zheng Er, he was a tragedy in the face of others. Now even a retired man has to question himself, it is really good to repay his kindness, Hu Ye decided not to be a good person in the future, and if he doesn't see a rabbit, he won't scatter an eagle.

By the time I returned to Nameless Mansion, it was already dark.

Fortunately, Hu Ye is not short-sighted, otherwise he would have played through without glasses, and it would have been possible to lose two front teeth in front of his house. Even so, Hu Ye fell when he walked into the door, and it seemed that he had broken his knee. If it weren't for Lao Qian's quick eyes and quick hands, he grabbed his shirt, Hu Ye felt that he might have lost two front teeth.

Now that the age of changing teeth is long past the age of changing teeth, if you lose your front teeth at this time, you will only have to speak leakage in the future. Hu Ye didn't allow such a thing to happen, so Hu Ye decided to hang three lanterns in front of the gate, on the grounds that he couldn't see the two lanterns at night.

As a result, it was opposed by everyone except Saren, and everyone else hung two lanterns, so how could we hang three in our house.

This group of people finally dared to argue with themselves, Hu Ye felt that this was very good, and the thoughts of these ancient people were changing little by little with him.

In order not to dampen their confidence in progress, Hu Ye agreed to hang only two lanterns, and his eyes widened when he entered the door in the future.

Su Rina was still silent, and Hu Ye secretly glanced at her and found that she was staring at herself. Hu Ye turned his head in embarrassment, this woman is not simple, those eyes can speak, and they can hook people. Hu Ye is even more sure that she is not an ordinary woman, but it is not yet time for her to confess. So Hu Ye took Xiaoqiang from Saren's arms, hugged Xiaoqiang, and limped to his room.

Su Rina looked at Hu Ye's thin back, her eyes shining with a strange light. She felt that the person in front of her was different from the previous people, and the eyes of the previous people were all lustful, only this person's was very clear and a little shy.

Seeing that Hu Ye had returned to the room, the women in the hall were scattered. Saren followed Hu Ye in a hurry, he didn't serve the good young master last night, and he must make up for it tonight.

But tonight's result is still the same, Saren still fell asleep on the desk, Hu Ye had no choice but to throw her on the bed, and decided not to let Saren study ink tomorrow, such a little doll should go to bed early.

Hu Ye was also a little tired today, so after writing down some information about Zhang Yu in the Ming Dynasty Records, he was ready to go to bed. There are too many things about Zhu Di, Hu Ye feels that he can't finish writing in a few nights, and he has to make a separate book to write.

Looking at Saren, who was sleeping soundly, Hu Ye was wondering, did he really want to share a bed with a ten-year-old girl.

At this time, Xiao Qiang opened his eyes, peeked his head from Saren's chest, looked at Hu Ye proudly, and showed his teeth humanely, looking as if he was laughing at Hu Ye for not having the courage.

was despised by a pervert, Hu Ye felt very shameless, so he said viciously to Xiaoqiang, "Your white sheep wolf, dare to laugh at the eldest brother, is it itchy!" I'll fight the for Lao Tzu tomorrow, and if I don't beat that rooster, I won't want to go to bed again in this life. ”

Xiaoqiang was very aggrieved when he heard this, and he cowered and got into the quilt to enjoy this zuihou night. It knew it still had a long way to go before it could defeat that, and it had to warm Saren's soft chest tonight.

After scolding Xiao Qiang, Hu Ye pondered again. Her reputation must have been ruined, and Lan Tingyue must have spread the news that she and Saren were in the same bed, and it was useless to explain it. But I've always treated Saren as my sister, and I've never thought about what I'm going to do to her.

"It's okay, she's only ten years old, and she's just a doll." Hu Ye comforted himself, and then also got into the bed, the late night in March was very cold, and it was still warm in the bed.

The next day, it was Lan Tingyue who shouted at Hu Ye, but this time she knocked Hu Ye squarely. Hu Ye got up with a grimace and put on his clothes in Lan Tingyue's strange eyes.

Lan Tingyue glanced at the quilt intentionally or unintentionally, and lifted it with her hand. Fortunately, there is nothing abnormal, otherwise she must tell Hu Ye that she is still young and must not cross the boundary.

Damn, no matter how beastly you are, you can't do it to a ten-year-old girl! Hu Ye felt that his glorious image, from the time he promised Saren to serve him that night, had become more and more obscene, and Zuihou might have evolved into the most famous gentleman in Beiping City.

I can't stay here anymore! So Hu Ye blushed and came to Yanwang's Mansion with the old money.

As soon as I entered the door, I found that Zhang Yujinzhong and these people had already arrived. Zhu Di was staring at the two account books yesterday with wide eyes, and there were two red lists on his right.

"Hu Ye, guess how much grain you received yesterday?" Jin Zhong asked Hu Ye with some excitement.

"Tens of thousands of taels?" Hu Ye said with some uncertainty.

"See for yourself." Without waiting for Jin Zhong to answer, Zhu Di threw the ledger to Hu Ye.

Hu Ye picked up the account book and looked at it, and wrote more than ten pages, some dozens of taels, some hundreds of taels, and thousands of taels, and Zuihou's statistics actually reached 500,000 taels!

What is the concept of 500,000 taels, which can account for at least more than 10% of this year's treasury revenue. This is only one place in Beiping, and if the merchants in all places are so mighty, wouldn't they be able to come up with a few treasury dollars.

Hu Ye still underestimated the businessman. Looking at the grain again, the total amount has reached 100,000 stones, which is enough for the people of Beiping City to eat for two months, and it will not be a problem to survive this year's drought. However, the premise is to solve the problem of water sources.

"Your Highness, I think this silver should be enough to build the dam, as long as Ruan An comes, we can start building it. The sooner a dam is built, the more water can be stored. Hu Ye said to Zhu Di after reading the two account books.
