Chapter 178: Praise

A few dirty little faces appeared around the corner, Feng Zhaozhao had an impression of a few little beggars, and when he was in a good mood, he would send food to a few beggars when he went out. Occasionally, I will give a few copper plates, but I dare not give more, for fear of being snatched away by the wicked.

Waving to a few beggars, Feng Zhaozhao said with a smile: "You know who I am, how dare you run to the neighborhood, you are not afraid that I will ask the family to beat the child." ”

Xiao Shi rubbed the corners of his clothes and said with a smile: "The people in the Guogong Mansion are good, the family members are kind, and they will not beat children." ”

The child named Tiezhu gave Feng Zhaozhao a handful of wildflowers with a red face. They haven't eaten less food for a while, and their dreams are all sweet dreams.

Feng Zhaozhao accepted the wildflowers and said with praise: "These little flowers are in good color, I like them very much, thank you." By the way, I want to do business, and my pocket money is not enough. Do you have money in your pocket, the business has just opened, and I will give you more if you buy goods. ”

The dog reacted quickly, and asked the little friend to take out the private money, and the three children made up a penny each. The baby put the money in Feng Zhaozhao's hand, and the copper plate was warm, which showed that the three children had more than this copper plate.

Feng Zhaozhao turned his head to lime and said, "You go to the kitchen, pack up the seafood in a bamboo basket, and let the children take it back and try it." There are a few steamed buns, and you can eat them when you go back. ”

Lime nodded, walked quickly to the kitchen to prepare something, felt pitiful for a few children, and put a few dried sea fish in the bamboo basket.

Holding the basket to the back door, Lime handed the bamboo basket to the big stone, and said with a smile: "It's cheap for you, this is seafood, I will tell you how to eat it." ”

Feng Zhaozhao looked at the lime with a smile and talked about the method, don't look at the lime's dislike for a few beggars, and sympathize with the child in his heart.

Xiao Shi laboriously picked up the bamboo basket, he was sensible early, and knew that three cents could not buy a basket of things, so he thanked Qin Ershao with a smile. Holding the hands of the two children, he left happily.

Feng Zhaozhao sighed faintly and sighed: "Young Master Qian, you asked me not to associate with beggars last time, you don't know that the life of the poor is like grass mustard, and the little beggar is not as good as floating grass." If you have a family, how can you become a beggar? I see that a few children are in good spirits, and it seems that there are still well-wishers in the capital taking care of them. ”

Qian Fugui scratched his head and said, "What I said that day was told to me by Master Zhang Dao. He told me that there were bad people among the beggars and that they should not show their kindness, and that I was afraid that I would be deceived. ”

Looking at Qian Fugui's rich face, Feng Zhaozhao thought about it and said: "Master Zhang is right, you don't know martial arts, be careful outside." There are many people of all kinds, and it is difficult to distinguish between the wicked and the good. I don't want to be a good man, I don't want to be an evil man, I love to be an idler. ”

Qian Fugui asked, "Do you really plan to do business?" What kind of seafood do you want to sell? The taste is good, will anyone buy it. ”

Feng Zhaozhao said with certainty: "Someone will buy it, a few pennies in the capital is nothing." I have no money, so naturally I have to find a way to make money, and this time it is reasonable. ”

Xiaoshi walked down the alley, bypassed half of the capital, and saw that there was no one behind him, before taking the two children into the small alley. After walking for five or six minutes, the small stone knocked on the wooden door, the door opened, and the little friend entered the door.

The old man who opened the door was gray, emaciated, dressed in dirty and thin clothes, and yawned sleepily.

"You're back so early, little rock, what are you carrying? How fishy it smells. But if you steal the sea fish, the sea fish have something to eat, and the river fish is delicious. ”

Xiaoshi put down the basket and said happily: "I didn't steal anything, Kong Niangzi didn't scold someone, we don't dare to make her angry." Qin Ershao wants to do business, we scraped together three pennies, and bought so many things so affordable. ”

The old man opened his eyes and stared at the bamboo basket, a fine light flashed in his cloudy eyes, and he said happily: "It is indeed affordable, just this bamboo basket is worth five or six yuan." This Qin Ershao is good, I haven't eaten anything in the basket. ”

Xiao Shi rolled up his sleeves and volunteered to cook, taking his two children to work in the kitchen.

The old man picked up the wine gourd on his waist and took a sip of wine, thinking about the rumors about Qin Ershao and shaking his head, the gossip was not credible. If Qin Ershao is really a bastard boy, how can he pity the little beggar.

After making a bowl of kelp soup, Xiaoshi respectfully handed the bowl to the old man, and said flatteringly: "You always taste the taste, give the steamed buns, and there are dried fish in the basket." ”

The old man took a sip of soup, squinted his eyes and savored it, opened his eyes and said decisively: "This seagrass can be eaten, I will give you the copper plate in a hurry, and you will go to the Guogong Mansion again to support Qin Ershao in business." ”

Xiao Shi is an obedient child, he is sensible earlier than his friends, and sensible children will not be abandoned again. He is not from the capital, he wandered from another country, and his heart has been honed early.

If it was usual, what the old man explained, Xiao Shi would nod obediently and agree, and conscientiously complete the task given by the old man. Today, Xiao Shi was a little abnormal, looking down at the ground and not answering, as if he was not willing to take advantage of Qin Ershao.

The old man felt strange, and said funny: "You kid, in the past, I let you steal chickens and touch dogs, you were willing, why don't you help me buy Qin Ershao's seafood today." You're a kid, you have to go to get more. ”

Xiaoshi rubbed the ground with his ill-fitting dirty cloth shoes, and muttered: "Er Shao is a good person, and he has given us enough, you always said that you can't be too greedy." ”

The old man picked up the white-flour steamed buns and started eating, and nodded with satisfaction after eating a few bites, the steamed buns in the Guogong Mansion tasted good.

"What do you know, since Er Shao said that he was doing business, he would definitely not make a fuss. Don't worry, Ershao is a rich man, and he can't spend enough money, so he can do it with a little help to the little beggar. You go to the Guogong Mansion a few more times to inquire about the situation, and see how the seafood is sold, I will buy more at a cheap price, and save it for winter. ”

The old man thought about it for a long time, and there were many people who followed him, and it was not yet the height of summer, and the old man began to think about the food in the middle of winter.

Xiaoshi believed the old man's words, and the next day he carried a broken money bag and took two friends to the mouth of the alley near the Guogong Mansion.

Feng Zhaozhao stood at the back door and yawned, he couldn't sleep in the Guogong Mansion, it was not as good as being comfortable in Zhuangzi. Got up early and had nothing to do, Feng Zhaozhao came to the back door to see the guys in Bihai Pavilion delivering goods.

The shopkeeper stood at the door, and persuaded Qian Fugui to go home, if he didn't go home and live in Bihai Pavilion, how could he live in the Guogong Mansion for a long time.

Feng Zhaozhao raised his eyebrows and looked at the shopkeeper, feeling that the shopkeeper was eloquent, and his words of persuasion were more acceptable than what Master Zhang said. It's a pity that Young Master Yo Qian has identified the Guogong Mansion, and now he can't get rid of it.

Seeing that Young Master Qian looked impatient, Feng Zhaozhao opened his mouth and said, "Shopkeeper, you let the Qian family not worry about Young Master Qian, the people of the Guogong Mansion will take care of him." He doesn't want to go home, probably because all of you spoil him like a child. Young Master Qian is not young, a young man from an ordinary family, he has already become a family at this age. ”

Qian Fugui nodded vigorously, he was very comfortable in the Guogong Mansion, there were no servants who groveled to him, and there were no servants who were ambitious to seduce him.

The shopkeeper looked at the childish young master, sighed helplessly, and said: "Second young man, it is natural for you to be friends with the young master, but the children of the big family are cautious in their words and deeds, and they represent the family. ”

The shopkeeper almost said directly that the Jiangnan family is not willing to have more dealings with the dignitaries and nobles in the capital, and the Jiangnan family is not ordinary arrogance.

Feng Zhaozhao said with a smile: "Shopkeeper, you are too worried, I am the loser of the Guogong Mansion, Young Master Qian is the son of the Qian family, and it is best for the two of us to be friends." It's a comfort to make friends, and if there are too many ideas mixed in it, it's tiring to be like that. ”

Qian Fugui said with a smile: "What Er Shao said is exactly what I think in my heart. I am willing to make friends with someone, I don't care about the reputation of the other party, I appreciate people with true temperament. ”

The shopkeeper was very helpless, so he left with his buddy, and helped Qian Fugui take away a few letters from home when he left.

Feng Zhaozhao said curiously: "Young Master Qian, you are homesick, why did you stay in the field for the first time, if you are homesick, don't hold on, go home and have a look." ”

Qian Fugui doesn't want to go back, he has seen enough of the scenery in the south of the Yangtze River, and there are many interesting things at the feet of the Son of Heaven.

"I don't want to go home, write to my mother and ask her to give me money to spend."

Feng Zhaozhao patted Young Master Qian's thick shoulder, and said earnestly: "You should learn to earn money by yourself and have the ability to be self-reliant, and your family will not treat you as a child." When you make money every day, the old patriarch of the Qian family will also bow and praise you a few words. ”

Qian Fugui's eyes widened, and he said in a daze: "The patriarch salutes me?" Ershao, your idea is too bold, I don't dare to think about it. ”

A few people who were familiar with Feng Zhaozhao on the side looked at Qian Fugui sympathetically. Even Ma Minghui of Mu Ne now knows that Qin Er has one less mouth, and he can say that the living are dead, and he can also say the dead alive.

Feng Zhaozhao asked Ma Minghui to bring a wooden bench and beckoned Qian Fugui to sit down and chat. Her next plan to accumulate wealth needs an agent, and this person is the son of the family.

"It's not right for you to grow so big and keep reaching out to your family for money. People can make money, go out to straighten their waists, buy what they like, and spend their own money. If you want to make money, you have to make a lot of money, you see that those giant businessmen in all dynasties and dynasties are all big people who have been passed down through the ages, and they can save all people in times of crisis. ”

Feng Zhaozhao casually said a few famous businessmen in the previous dynasty, there are profiteers and benevolent businessmen in any era, and Feng Zhaozhao admires people who have the world in mind. She hopes that the children of the family will be rich and rich, and have more respect for the people in the world, and don't forget the people of the world when there is creation in the future.

Qian Fugui is a child of a family who eats and waits for death, has no ambition and no city, and the family spoils a small life.

If he hadn't met Feng Zhaozhao, who could fool, his life would have been spent peacefully and without waves, and he would not have been able to make any waves in the long river of history.

Now it's different, Qian Fugui heard the names of several big businessmen, his heart was pounding and nervous, and he was inexplicably excited. After following Feng Zhaozhao for a while, he no longer despised merchants, but thought that the development of the dynasty was inseparable from merchants.
