Chapter 215: Tracking
"Hehe, well, since this is the rule, then I might as well be respectful." Putting the silver ticket into the sleeve cage, Lin Baoliang said with a smile - he naturally wouldn't put it in his eyes for just five taels of silver, but this was Sun Dong's intention, not the face value of the silver ticket.
"Hehe, thank you, every day, let's go, eat beef noodles." The chess was over, the money was earned, and the anger was out, Sun Dong made a circle of fists to everyone, and then took Tan Xiaotian's hand and planned to leave.
"Oh, young man, when you first came to Yangzhou, did you find a good place to stay? If not, why don't you come to my house for a few days? Lin Baoliang stopped them and asked with a smile.
"Thank you for the kindness of the old gentleman, the accommodation problem was arranged, and the old gentleman bothered." Sun Dong hurriedly thanked.
"Oh, that's it, hehe, Ah Quan." Since people have arrangements, they are not easy to force, Lin Baoliang nodded, shouted, and at the same time stretched out his right hand to the middle-aged man who had been following the housekeeper beside him, that person seemed to have followed Lin Baoliang for a long time, there was already a tacit understanding between the two people, seeing the master's movements, he immediately understood what it meant, and hurriedly took out a small red lacquer wooden box with very fine work from his arms, and after opening it, he took out a golden-colored, palm-sized card and handed it to Lin Baoliang's hand.
"Hehe, young man, the total prize money of the game of chess just now is forty taels, and the honorarium of one percent is four taels, and you give me a silver ticket with a face value of five taels, which is one tael more than the honorarium that should be given, my old man can't take advantage of your young man, this is my business card, and if you need help in Yangzhou or any place where you need help in the future, just take it and go in to find the person in charge." After that, Lin Baoliang handed the card into Sun Dong's hands.
Another commotion - this business card made of gold alone can't be made for a tael of silver, not to mention the meaning behind this business card, in Huitong, only customers with a deposit account of more than 100,000 are eligible to get this kind of gold business card. What kind of luck is it to become a VIP customer of Huitong and enjoy VIP treatment, and this young man only spent one or two silver to get it? The onlookers let out all kinds of envious exclamations, eager to snatch them up and claim them as they already have, but in front of so many people, no one was embarrassed to make a move.
"Uh, old man, this, this is too valuable, isn't it?" Although Sun Dong came from a small county town. But it's not that I haven't seen the world, the business card feels heavy as soon as I start it, and I know that this is made of pure gold instead of brass gold, and then I hear the envy of the people around me, I know that the meaning of this business card is very, and I was flattered to Lin Baoliang and thanked him uneasily, but the palm of his hand was clenched tightly and refused to go back.
"Haha, what's not expensive, make a friend. Wait to settle down. It's true that I often take Tian Tian to play, and I want my grandchildren to learn a few tricks from Tian Tian. Lin Baoliang said with a smile.
"Definitely, definitely. Old man, let's go first. After settling down, I went to visit the house. "If you are courteous to others, you must ask for something, since you know why people think so highly of yourself, Sun Dong is also relieved. Rich friends, it's not a bad thing to get to know each other more, and he carefully put away his business card closely. Say goodbye again and leave.
Out of the gate of the Jiangdu Chess Academy, crossed the bridge to the opposite side of the river, and walked forward dozens of steps to the carriage of Lao Wei, the coachman Lao Wei was also relieved, tied the horse to a small tree to eat forage, and he was holding the horsewhip leaning on the carriage to bask in the sun, seeing the two people coming back, a slip out of the car jumped down, "What's going on there?" How did you go for so long? He asked.
"Hehe, it's nothing, it's just a vignette, are you in a hurry?" Sun Dong asked with a smile.
"That's not going to happen, I'm just afraid that you two will get lost, and if you can't find it from other doors, you'll be in trouble." Old Wei smiled honestly.
"Old Uncle Wei, you are too underestimated, right? Even if we can't find it, can't we find this river? As long as you find this river and follow the river, are you afraid that you won't be found? "Tan Xiaotian is a big ghost, holding his chest high, trying to make himself appear taller.
"Hehe, know, know, who doesn't know that we are smart every day. Hehe, let's go, it's almost time to eat when you get to the trading house. He praised Tan Xiaotian with a smile, and then said to Sun Dong.
So the two of them got into the carriage, Lao Wei put away the trough for feeding the horses, untied the reins tied to the tree, flicked the whip, and the carriage was on the road again.
It's just that none of the three of them noticed that a young man was quietly following behind the carriage a dozen paces away.
The carriage moved forward, and after crossing three bridges and turning two streets, Lao Wei raised his right hand, pointed to a shop thirty or forty steps ahead, and said loudly, "Here, look, there is Liu Ji Commercial Company." ”
Looking in the direction of his finger, he saw a two-story small building, in this Yangzhou City, where shops are everywhere and the business is prosperous, it does not seem particularly ostentatious, the cyan wall tiles, the doors and windows of the door paint, and the plaque with gold paint on the black background under the eaves of the roof of the second floor, on which the dragon and the phoenix dance are written with four big characters 'Liu Ji Commercial Bank'.
"Huh? Why don't you have any guests? Along the way, I was accustomed to seeing the bustling business and the lively scene of people coming and going, and seeing that there seemed to be no one in front of Liu Ji Commercial Bank, Sun Dong asked strangely.
"Hehe, you don't know this, first, Liu Ji Commercial Bank has not been open here for a long time, and its reputation is not very big, and secondly, the commercial house is doing bulk business, and the customers are mainly other stores, and the business of individual customers is generally not done, so it is normal for the store to not be as lively as other shops. However, although there are few customers, a business may be more than half a month's income of other shops. Lao Wei explained with a smile.
While speaking, the carriage had already come to the door of Liu Ji Commercial Bank, Lao Wei pulled the reins of the horse, and stopped the carriage with a 'call' in his mouth, "Little Liuzi, Little Liuzi!" He shouted into the firm.
"Who!" There were footsteps, and a young man of sixteen or seventeen years old walked out of it, dressed in a green cloth trouser gown, with green cloth shoes on his feet, and the sleeves of his two arms were pulled up to the elbows, looking clean and neat, and full of vitality.
"Who else could it be, your old Uncle Wei. Is the shopkeeper Cui here? Lao Wei was obviously very familiar with this young man, and asked with a smile.
"Oh, it's Uncle Wei. The shopkeeper Cui is stocking the goods in the back. The young man recognized Lao Wei and replied with a smile.
"Hurry up and report it, and say that the guest I sent from the master has arrived." Old Wei commanded.
The young man answered, glanced at the two people behind Lao Wei, one big and one small, turned around and ran quickly to report to Xin'er. (To be continued......)
