Chapter 144: The figure of the male protagonist
Fragrant building, an elegant box.
There was a middle-aged man in his forties, dressed in a cyan brocade robe, and the shopkeeper waited respectfully beside the middle-aged man, who had four or five cyan pages of ledgers in front of his desk.
The middle-aged man looked through it carefully, nodded while watching, and after a while, he read a few ledgers and said, "Well, yes, in the past two years, Xiangmanlou's profit has doubled compared to two years ago?" It seems that the shopkeeper has put a lot of effort into it? This time, when I go back, I will not tell the master of the house, and I will reward you heavily."
"Thank you Xuan, this is all my job?" Since someone found the shopkeeper Zhang to manage the Xiangmanlou restaurant, the shopkeeper Zhang only knew that his owner was surnamed Xuan, and he didn't know where the owner lived and what it was called, but he only knew that the owner had a Zhuangzi in the town, and the Xuan steward checked the account book every one or two years, and the other shopkeepers didn't know anything.
"We are all doing our part for the master's family, only the difference between intentions and carelessness, if you do things seriously for the master's family, the master's family will naturally reward you." Xuan Guandao.
"Bangbang". A few sounds.
"Come in". The one who came in was a Taoist priest who was about fifty years old, dressed in a Taoist robe, combed his hair in a Taoist bun, and held gossip in his hand.
"Shopkeeper Zhang, you go out first."
"Yes".
"Lord Huang Guan, what's wrong, but I found it." After the shopkeeper left, the Xuan steward stood up with some excitement and said to the Huang Guan master.
"Alas! I don't know? I looked around, and the gossip mirror actually failed here." The Huang Guan Lord frowned a little puzzled and shook his head.
"How so, what's going on".
"There is a reason, one is that there are nobles here who are white and white, and the other is that this is the place where clouds and white clash with each other."
"What can I do?"
"The old man thinks that for the sake of conservatism, let's go around and take a look, maybe we can find it? Besides, now that the first emperor of Goryeo is in the sky, the eldest prince and the second prince of Goryeo are vying for the throne, and the people will definitely be in trouble here, and this is very close to the border of Goryeo.
"Alas! We've been walking towards us for most of the time, and we've found most of the place, old lady, are they afraid that the young master won't be able to wait? ”。
"There are still five years to go....... five years".
.........。
After the Xuan steward left, he told the shopkeeper Zhang that the eldest prince of Goryeo and the second prince were competing for the throne, and after telling the shopkeeper Zhang about the civil strife, the shopkeeper Zhang immediately thought of the Liu family.
The Liu family lives in Sangou Village, which is separated by a river from the other end of the Goryeo Kingdom, and at the end of last year, there was a case of Goryeo Kingdom coming to Sangou Village to steal things.
Now that the two princes of Goryeo are competing for the throne, they are afraid that when the time comes, the people will be miserable, and the people will not be able to make a living, the mountain valley village is very close to the border of Goryeo, and the Liu family is all some old and weak women and children.
Immediately, Shopkeeper Zhang wanted to run non-stop to tell the Liu family about this, so that the Liu family could be prepared and take precautions.
Coincidentally, the sisters of the Liu family went to the town to sell things, and after the shopkeeper Zhang saw his boss and the second sister of the Liu family counting the eggs together, the shopkeeper Zhang immediately ran over and said, "The second sister of the Liu family ........"
After the second sister Liu Yisa heard the shopkeeper Zhang shouting to herself, the second sister thought that she and Zhang Xin were seen by the shopkeeper Zhang together, and the second sister immediately blushed, and then, after the second sister heard the words of the shopkeeper Zhang, the second sister suddenly turned pale, and her lips trembled a little, "How can this be?" No, I'll find my eldest sister and tell her about it."
After the second sister said this, she didn't care about the eggs here, so she ran out with her legs.
"You go and follow the second sister of the Liu family, don't do anything?"
Liu Yiyu had just come out of the Zhuzi Baijia Bookstore after selling things, and he saw the second sister's miserable face coming over.
"Second sister".
"Eldest sister, it's not good, something happened ........"
"Second sister, don't panic, the sky is falling, and there is a tall one on top? Besides, we are not the only family in our village, and the second sister can rest assured." It seems that the last time my family came to steal things, the second sister was scared, and now when I hear about the civil strife in Goryeo, our village is very close to Goryeo, and the second sister is afraid that someone will come to our house to steal things, hurting the people in the family.
However, after the second sister saw that Liu Yiyu was so calm, her panicked heart slowly calmed down, as if she had found the backbone.
After getting the news, Liu Yiyu didn't have the heart to go shopping anymore, and the two sisters rushed to the house non-stop.
On the way home, Liu Yiyu had a lot of confusion in his heart, and planned to tell Uncle Lizheng about it first, so that Uncle Lizheng could be prepared.
As soon as Wang Lizheng heard Liu Yiyu tell him the news, he immediately summoned the people in the village and held a village meeting to remind everyone.
It's just that when many villagers heard the news, they immediately panicked one by one and said nonsense.
It's just that, at this time, a voice said, "Lizheng, yesterday I also went to the Goryeo Kingdom in the opposite village from us, why didn't I see them panicked or fighting, they were very calm, and nothing happened?" ”。
"Erlaizi, what you said is true." Sister-in-law Yang asked.
"If you don't believe it, you can ask Uncle Da Kun, yesterday, Uncle Da Kun saw me cross the river to Goryeo in the opposite village?" When Er Laizi heard that someone questioned whether his words were false, he immediately became anxious and found someone to preach.
"Da Kun, what Er Laizi said is true." Wang Li is facing Da Kun's confirmation of the way.
"Yesterday, I did see Erraizi cross the river and go to Goryeo in the opposite village." Da Kun nodded affirmatively.
"Could it be that this war has not yet spread to the village next door."
"Lizheng, no matter whether they have civil strife in Goryeo or not, we all know about it, everyone should be vigilant, in case it's not, like last time, wasting manpower to patrol at night, although I have a lot of strength in charge, but I can't be so wasteful, no, everyone said, isn't it."
In the end, it was discussed, and every night two adult men were used to keep vigil and patrol, one at the head and one at the end of the village, and when they found that something was wrong, they would ring a gong to remind everyone.
As for manpower, the first 45 families in the village, each family took turns, and each family sent one person, according to the old rules of the village, the manpower was transferred from the head of the village, and the Liu family lived at the end of the village, and it was not the turn of the Liu family to live at the end of the village.
