Chapter 64: Guessing the boxing and choosing people
"Very good, now there are only ten people left, let's guess three boxing, who wins and draws one! Up to five times! ”
Xiao Cui and Du Yunze glanced at each other, and they both saw something in each other's eyes.
How can this shopkeeper be such a big deal!
Letting applicants know that they were choosing people in this way would have a significant impact on the reputation of their inn.
Seeing what they were thinking, Tang Mian jumped behind them and put his hand on their shoulders, "Rest assured!" That's the fairest way for me! Haven't you heard the saying 'luck is also part of strength', let's block our luck today and choose people for our five inns! ”
Early in the morning, Xiaocui personally went to inform the five shopkeepers to go to the Four Seasons Inn to sign the employment deed.
"Auntie, girl, you, you're not kidding! I was chosen, but I didn't answer very well! is also old - "Uncle Zhao in front of him has passed the age of sixties, since he was admitted to Xiucai thirty years ago, he has repeatedly tried and failed in the past few years, and on ordinary days, he has subsidized some family expenses for opening a private school nearby, and he heard that there is no age limit for the recruitment of shopkeepers at the Four Seasons Inn, so he tried it, and he didn't expect to apply!
Xiao Cui saw Uncle Zhao's thoughtful face, smiled very kindly, and sighed that the two shopkeepers drawn by the master were very good.
Seeing that the hour was not early, she went back to eat.
"Master, the four shopkeepers look good, but there is also this Qiao Sheng, who lives in Qiaojia Village, and is ten miles away from West Street, I will go again in the afternoon.
Qiaojia Village? How does the name sound so familiar?
There is also the name Qiao Sheng, she seems to have heard it somewhere.
She was stunned and took two mouthfuls of food into her mouth.
Suddenly stood up after remembering something!
Yes! Qiao Sheng is not Shen Guangbo's number one enemy!
He has been an official in the court for many years, and he has opposed him everywhere!
Shen Guangbo cursed him several times when he got home.
That's great! Thanks to him for adding so much blockage to Shen Guangbo!
I heard that he was a rare talent in a century, and when he was nine years old, he took the children's exam and became the top of the list.
The emperor heard that he was very smart, and he was especially kind enough to allow him to participate in the township examination, not wanting him to understand the yuan, and then became the champion of the Huiyuan and the palace examination. Lianzhong Sanyuan became the first person to be the first person in the three hundred years since the founding of the country, and since then, Qiao Sheng's name has resounded all over the world.
Could it be that their fifth treasurer is this champion!
"Master! What happened to you? After Xiao Cui saw Tang Mian stand up, she smirked again and again, a little worried.
Du Yunze saw that something was wrong with her, and his eyes locked on her.
Feeling that someone was looking at him, Tang Mian came back to his senses.
Then he took the initiative to ask to go to Qiaojia Village to meet the shopkeeper in person later
As soon as he got out of the carriage, two uncles came up, and Tang Mian hurriedly greeted him and asked Qiao Sheng's family.
"Oh, the girl Qiao Sheng's family is very recognizable, there is a Tang tree outside their house. Keep going until you get to the end and turn right. ”
Walking in the direction they were pointing, a man was heard roaring.
"Stinky boy! Dare to be lazy and ask you to go to the imperial city to sell firewood, but you lost the firewood, see if Lao Tzu doesn't kill you today......"
Tang Mian looked at the Tang tree in front of him clearly, turned his head and saw the kneeling child.
His eyes flashed with golden light.
Du Yunze felt the irrepressible joy on Tang Mian's body, followed her line of sight, and saw that she had been staring at the kneeling child with a puzzled expression.
"Ahem...... Is this Qiao Sheng's house? I'm the owner of the Four Seasons Inn! ”
When Qiao Da heard that the innkeeper was coming to look for his youngest son, he hurriedly dropped the rattan in his hand and invited them into the house.
"Uncle, you don't have to be polite, we came to Qiao Sheng to inform him that we plan to hire him to be the shopkeeper of the inn, so that he can go to the inn to sign a contract with us in the next two days!"
What a joe! Yesterday, I secretly followed Qiao Huang to the Four Seasons Inn to apply!
What kind of eyes is this Boss Tang!
His eldest son is so good!
Why did you take a fancy to Qiao Sheng, who was only nine years old!
Qiao Sheng, who was still kneeling, was so excited that he couldn't do it when he heard that he had been admitted.
That's great!
As long as he can become a treasurer, he will be able to buy more books to read in the future.
He wants to participate in the boys' exam, and he wants to be the champion! He must fulfill his mother's last wish!
"Uncle, that's okay, I see that your house is a little far away, you call Qiao Sheng to sign the contract! I'll tell him the specifics. ”
Qiao Da hadn't recovered from his son's admission, and was about to call the kneeling Qiao Sheng when he was dragged into the house by his family.
Since the kitchen was a bit far from the main house, Tang Mian couldn't hear what they were saying.
But she was not stupid, and motioned to Du Yunze to find the village Lizheng to come over.
It didn't take long for Qiao Da to appear in front of Tang Mian with his eldest son Qiao Huang, who had packed up.
"Hello Boss Tang." He shouted hello.
Tang Mian nodded with a smile and asked, "You are Qiao Sheng?" ”
Qiao Huang immediately nodded.
The Four Seasons Inn hired the shopkeeper to offer a sky-high price of twenty taels of silver a month.
He and so many people in the village went to apply, but they didn't expect them to choose the younger brother.
He's a nine-year-old kid who knows a skin!
It's not that she relies on his mother to be a down-and-out official lady, and she always doesn't take them seriously.
I don't want to think about it, if my father hadn't married her back then, her shameless woman who had children before marriage would have been sunk in the pond.
"Hmm...... Do you remember the question you asked for yesterday and what you wrote? ”
Qiao Huang's heart tightened, not to mention that he was not a little brother, even if it was really him, he might not be able to repeat what he wrote.
"The owner, according to your instructions, has invited Li Zheng to be a witness!" Du Yunze deliberately put his voice very loudly.
The Qiao family and his wife turned their heads and saw that they were really the old man, and they were so frightened that their souls were gone.
Li Zheng, who didn't know the truth, still looked at Qiao Sheng who was still kneeling with a happy face.
"Child, what are you still doing on your knees! Your mother helped so much in the village during her lifetime, since Boss Tang has taken a fancy to you and wants to hire you back as a shopkeeper, then you can go! Remember to do your best! Don't embarrass the people of our Qiaojia Village......"
Du Yunze was calling him "Qiao Sheng" when he heard it, and his face was full of shock.
Because Qiao Sheng is the shopkeeper he pulled out.
His answer was subtle and powerful, not at all like it was written by a child.
"Lizheng, can I really be the shopkeeper?" Even if there was Li Zheng's support, he didn't dare to get up.
For fear of upsetting my father and aunt.
He also didn't understand why his father and aunt hated him so much.
Since his mother died three years ago, he has been getting worse and worse day by day.
Especially the eldest mother, who always didn't give him food behind his father's back, and took all the money that his mother left for him to go to private school, and gave it to his eldest brother to marry......
"Hey! Little brother, your name is Qiao Sheng? His name is Qiao Sheng, too? No way! You two brothers have one name! Tang Mian didn't expect that the rumors were not false at all, Qiao Sheng's father and mother were not good to him at all, so he was used as a tool to carry silver, he went to his house many times to make trouble after he won the top prize, and every time he gave a large sum of silver.
It is estimated that he has done too many bad things, and it didn't take long for his eldest brother to fight with a gangster in the imperial city, beating people to death, and his father and mother were hit, and when they went to him to make trouble, they collided with the emperor.
The emperor immediately imprisoned them in prison, and it didn't take long for them to completely disappear from the emperor's face.
Some people say that the emperor ordered someone to kill the husband and wife, and some people say that the husband and wife knew that Long Yan was furious and knew that they could not escape death.
Regardless of the truth!
He's still a nine-year-old kid! has not yet become the emperor's right and left hand.
As long as he helps him today, no matter what happens to her in the future, he will remember this kindness.
