Chapter 5: Caught in the Pit (Part II)

Fang Nengchi and Zheng Chen belong to the same academy, but compared with Zheng Chen, Zheng Chen was admitted by himself, and Fang Nengchi was smashed into it with money.

When Zheng Chen saw him, he walked over: "Why did Fang Caizi come out alone today?" What about your family? ”

"You... What do you call me? Fang Nengchi looked at Zheng Chen in surprise and asked, the two usually have nothing to do with each other, plus they know their own things, they are not talented at all, especially for a nerd like Zheng Chen.

"Call you Fang Caizi, we are in the same academy, aren't we?" Zheng Chen looked serious and asked rhetorically.

"No... That's right, we belong to the same academy, there is something going on at home today, the family is busy, so I didn't bring it out, why did you come out, don't you usually study at home during the holidays? Fang Nengchi looked down on Zheng Chen a little before, but when he heard him call himself a talent, he was still so serious, and he suddenly had a good impression of Zheng Chen.

"I don't plan to go to the academy anymore, it's too much pressure to be with people like you, and you can't pass the test in my township, so why humiliate yourself?" Zheng Chen shook his head and sighed.

Fang Nengchi shook his fat body excitedly, his waist stopped, and he looked at Zheng Chen more pleasing to the eye, Zheng Chen was a well-known nerd in the academy and would not flatter people, and now looking at his serious appearance, Fang Nengchi believed Zheng Chen's words, he was a talent.

"Brother Zheng, don't call me a talented man, just call me Brother Fang. Don't be discouraged, the reason why you can't compare to us is because you have fewer books at home, unlike our family with so many books to read. Fang Nengchi's eyes were about to narrow.

"Brother Fang is really as generous and selfless as the rumors, taking care of us poor students, but I understand Brother Fang's kindness, I don't have any interest in the imperial examination anymore, and I already plan to give up literature and start business.

Take out my family's ancestral secret recipe to make a thing called soap, which can be used for bathing and washing clothes, which is better than soap. Zheng Chen took out a piece of soap and gave it to Fang Nengchi, he didn't want to talk to Fang Nengchi anymore, and the goosebumps fell to the ground.

"Brother Zheng, how can you give up on yourself? You should ......"

"Brother Fang, you don't have to persuade me anymore, I am self-aware, and I will never be able to compare to you, the future pillars of the country..."Zheng Chen interrupted Fang Nengchi's words, he really didn't want to pull it anymore.

"Hey... Brother Zheng, if you can come to me because of financial difficulties, don't give up your studies, with my help, you will definitely be able to go to high school. Fang Nengchi recognized Zheng Chen's friend.

"Thank you Brother Fang for your kindness, I didn't go to the academy because I was almost handed over to Mr. Wei, but I really wasn't the material for studying, I didn't want to waste my good youth and delay my eldest brother and second brother to marry a wife and have children." If it weren't for the fact that his family was rich, Zheng Chen wouldn't want to talk nonsense with this arrogant and stupid person at all.

"In that case, brother, I won't force you, if you need help in the future, try to come to me, and I will definitely help if I can." I can't ask for this piece of soap for nothing today, I'll give you as much as I want. He said so, Zheng Chen still refused, it can be seen that he definitely didn't want to flatter himself and get any benefits from here.

"This is really not necessary, it hurts to talk about money. If Brother Fang, you really want to give me money, I will accept it, but in the future, we will no longer be friends, and we will never get along with each other. Zheng Chen said with a serious face.

He gave him money to such a serious point that he didn't dare to mention the money anymore, and finally had a friend who really admired him, so he didn't want to lose it.

"Since Brother Zheng, you have said so, then I will accept your heart, and we will have more contacts in the future, and we will have time to come to my house to sit."

"Okay, then we'll take our leave, and we'll go back to cooking." Don't collect money, it's always okay to have a meal, my family doesn't have much money now, the second brother is definitely not willing to buy meat anymore, Zheng Chen, as a meat eater, is not happy without meat, so he should invite himself to eat later.

"It just so happens that I haven't eaten yet, so I invited Brother Zheng to a meal, Brother Zheng won't refuse. If you refuse, you're looking down on me. Fang Nengchi said with a serious face.

"Brother Fang, you say this, how can I refuse......" Zheng Chen secretly thought that this thing was not stupid yet.

When he came to the restaurant, he ordered a table of dishes late, during which Zheng Chen praised Fang Neng a few words later, which made Fang Nengchi even happier, and made Zheng Chen have time to go to his house to sit.

After eating and shopping with Zheng Xu for an hour, he went home, and the next day Zheng Xu went out early in the morning, and Zheng Xu was no longer at home when Zheng Chen got up.

When he came back, Zheng Xu was very excited, and he came back with a bucket of more than ten catties of oil, but Zheng Chen happened to be not at home, so Zheng Xu made soap according to Zheng Chen's method at the beginning.

By the time Zheng Chen came back, Zheng Xu had already made nearly two hundred pieces of soap.

"Second brother, aren't you worried that you won't be able to sell it? Why do you still do so much. "Zheng Chen went out to exercise, got up early this morning and felt refreshed, jogged for a while and walked around for more than an hour before coming back, and when he came back, he saw the soap made by Zheng Xu.

"Shopkeeper Lu has already agreed to receive our goods, and it is a long-term receipt, and the agreement has been signed, let me send them 200 pieces of soap tomorrow.

There is no problem with me looking for someone to read the contract, and the shopkeeper Lu also gave me some deposits, which have allowed us to earn back the cost of this time and last time, and the balance of the money collected after tomorrow's delivery is earned. After Zheng Xu finished speaking, he went to wash his hands.

"Second brother, have you gone to find that shopkeeper Lu again?" Zheng Chen had a bad premonition.

"Yes, today I went to find the shopkeeper Lu, and it happened that his owner was also there, and then they decided to buy from us for a long time after trying it, except for a little bit of nonsense when negotiating the price, everything else went well." Zheng Xu washed his hands and said excitedly.

"Why did you go to them to talk without my consent, and you signed the agreement directly, the agreement is there, I'll take a look." That bad premonition was even stronger, and Zheng Chen felt that Zheng Xu would definitely be pitted.

Zheng Xu wiped his hands clean, carefully took out the agreement and handed it to Zheng Chen: "Little brother, don't worry, I found a few people to read the agreement and said it was no problem." ”

Zheng Chen took the agreement and looked at it, his face changed wildly, this second brother really didn't know that he was cheated...
