Chapter 1339: Handling
Chu Muhan and Shen Changyu's faces were a little not good-looking, on the other hand, those workers were satisfied with the copper plate and squatted aside, eating the steamed bread and dry food they brought, such a cold day, gnawing on cold noodles and drinking cold water, but they still looked so content, Chu Muhan found a place to sit down, and after doing physical work for half a day, he was also a little exhausted now, and his stomach was still very hungry, Shen Changyu got up and went to the vendor's place to buy a few meat buns and distribute them to the two.
Chu Muhan smiled at him, while looking at these dock workers while eating the meat bun, about to ask about the smell of meat, these workers turned their heads and looked in their direction, Shen Changyu was startled, almost choked on the meat bun, he reached out and patted his chest, Shen Changyin kindly slapped him on the back, this is good, not only did he not slap the thing stuck in his throat, he also felt a hot pain in his back, and a kind person among the workers handed him a kettle, between life and death, Shen Changyu didn't care if it was clean or not, so he took a big sip of the kettle.
After finally taking a breath of relief, he handed over the kettle, "Thank you, brother, for the rescue." ”
"What are you polite about being coolies?" As he spoke, the man stuffed the kettle and pinned it to his waist again, and talked to Shen Changyu by the way, "The three of you are new, right?" ”
Shen Changyu nodded, "How do you see that?" ”
The man smiled, "Only newcomers will eat meat buns, like we are all used to eating cold noodle steamed buns." ”
As soon as he said this, Shen Changyu suddenly felt that the meat bag in his hand was a little hot, he was born in the Hou Mansion, and his mother was the princess of the first emperor's favor, so naturally he had never suffered anything, and his food and clothing were also excellent, after working for a long time, he could only get such a little copper plate, Shen Changyu was also unwilling, but thinking that they were now undercover agents of Qiao Zhuang, he could only endure these unwillingly.
"Actually, I just wanted to ask, are these wages too small, so you can only eat some cold noodles and steamed buns?"
The man looked left and right, as if he was afraid that someone would find out, and said: "It's good to have these wages, and there are some foremen, who will push people directly without paying them after you finish your work, so who dares to complain, it's good to get money." ”
Chu Muhan frowned, although he didn't grow up in Zhongzhou, he was also born with a golden key, so naturally he couldn't understand the suffering of the people, "Didn't you think about making a fuss?" ”
"Who dares to make trouble, who doesn't have difficulties at home to do this work, can earn a little is a little."
Even Shen Changyin couldn't help but sigh, "That's right." ”
"But aren't you the usual workers of the royal family? In that case, it should be a lot better than those unstable porters, right? Chu Muhan tried his best to pull this question into the right track, and when he said this, Shen Changyin obediently shut up, and before leaving, Shen Changsheng's instructions were still vivid, less to say and less to make mistakes.
The man smiled awkwardly when he asked this, "It's better if it's not the Wang family, the Wang family's people have a big business, no one can afford to mess with it, and it's common to not pay wages. ”
Seeing that he was willing to discuss the Wang family with him, Chu Muhan suddenly came to hope, and even his eyebrows stretched a little, "I heard that the Wang family has a lot of cargo ships, although it is hard, but there is always work to do, right?" It took a lot of effort for us to get here. ”
The man shook his head, "There are still people who want to come to the Wang family to work, although there are a lot of cargo ships in the Wang family, but they are all things that no one does." ”
Chu Muhan pretended to look at the man with an open mind to ask for advice, "What do you mean that it is not done by people, is there anything wrong with these goods?" ”
"Aren't all the goods here? We'd like to move those who have problems, at least for more wages, but that's not a job that ordinary people can do. What he said was meaningful, but Chu Muhan heard a hint of hint, isn't there anything wrong with the goods in this dock? Is the goods in question not here?
But when he wanted to ask further, the foreman clapped his hands and urged, "Hurry up and eat, the next ship will be here soon." ”
In the afternoon, they moved some medicinal herbs, which were much lighter than the oranges in the morning, and the wages were still the same as in the morning, when Chu Muhan wanted to ask, these workers had long since disappeared, and they couldn't, so the three of them had to change their clothes and return to the Hou Mansion, and the old lady smelled a smell of medicine on them, so they were naturally questioned again, but fortunately, Shen Changsheng reacted quickly and called the matter over.
The three of them felt their scalps tingle, and went to the dock the next day, but they found nothing, but they carried a lot of salted fish, and they had the smell of drums, so they went to take a bath when they went to see the old lady.
The same was true for the following days.
Of course, the act of taking a bath every day still made the old lady a little puzzled, such a cold day, in such a situation, don't lead Chu Muhan to do anything bad, then she is not good to explain to Yun Jinglan, people arrived at her Hou Mansion well, and within two days they were taken by Shen Changyu, thinking of this, she reached out and knocked Shen Changyu's head again, "You stinky boy, when you were young, you loved to go to those unclean places, and now that you are old, you have to harm your nephew, and you are not afraid that Princess Changle will come to trouble you!" ”
Chu Muhan probably heard it, and when the old lady saw that they were washed clean every day, she thought that Shen Changyu had taken him to some Fengyue place, but it seemed that ...... This little uncle was also quite prodigal when he was young, Chu Muhan stood aside and did not come forward to solve the siege, but Shen Changyu hid behind Shen Changsheng again and again, "Second brother, it's your idea, you have to save me." ”
So he betrayed Shen Changsheng so easily, and the old lady looked at him strangely, "What do you call your idea?" Tell me the truth! ”
Shen Changsheng was helpless, "Mother, don't fight Changyu anymore, he's so old, and Mu Han is watching, you let him put his face as an uncle there, and you can rest assured, your son is packing tickets with you, Changyu He definitely didn't take Mu Han to any unclean places, aren't they checking Wang's house recently?" The Wang family's pharmacy has opened a lot, and Changyu doesn't like the smell, so he has to wash up every time he comes back. ”
"Is it that simple?" The eldest princess looked at Shen Changyu suspiciously, and the latter nodded innocently.
