Zhang Zhiye stroked his beard, and waited silently for Che Xiyu to continue, in fact, he just said that casually just now, where did he think that Che Xiyu would suddenly come to such a hand, but after all, Zhang Zhiye has experienced many ups and downs over the years, and it can still be done if he is happy and angry.

Che Xiyu is kneeling on the ground now with a nervous look, if she knows Zhang Zhiye's inner thoughts, she is afraid that she will collapse and die.

However, she also prepared a statement in her heart: "Master, you are a great good person, you gave me a lot of money at that time, and I only used a small part when I buried my father, and the rest ...... They all paid off my unsuccessful brother's debts. ”

"Your brother?"

"Yes, I also have an older brother named Che Ping, but he is a bad gambler, and my father was angry with him and fell ill and then died.

Later, after I buried my father, my brother stopped me and said that a bunch of people were asking him for debts, and if he didn't pay the money, they would break his tendons and hamstrings. ”

"So, you're going to give him all the money?"

Che Xiyu pursed her lips and nodded,

"But don't worry, master, I told my brother, this is the last time I will help him, if there is a next time, let him fend for himself......"

She stared at Zhang Zhiye with her eyes, observing the changes in his expression very carefully, thinking that she shouldn't be able to show her stuff, her set of rhetoric that she had prepared a long time ago was not groundless, even if she checked it, she could find it.

Zhang Zhiye looked at Che Xiyu, and there was a little more pity in his eyes than before, such a kind concubine, it is really heaven to be kind to him if he can get her.

He hurriedly stepped forward to help the weak and lovely little woman in front of him,

"Look at you, where do I care about this money, what I care about is that there are things and difficulties in the future, you have to tell me, don't do it by yourself quietly......"

Che Xiyu nodded heavily, and at the same time, the hanging heart finally fell.

Zhang Yuan's side.

He walked back happily, thinking that he could finally show his strength in the Qing Dynasty.

The two little girls of Qingwu and Qingyu were watering the flowers in the yard, first of all, Qingwu, seeing the young master walking with a joyful appearance, he also squinted his eyes and asked with a smile: "Young master, what happy event have you encountered, so happy?"

Zhang Yuan smiled, walked past Qingwu and patted her buttocks gently, well, it feels good.

Qingwu was coldly eaten by Zhang Yuan without defense, and his originally fair little tender face turned red like an apple, and he hurriedly looked around to make sure that no one else saw it except for Qingyu and the young master, so he patted Zhang Yuan's shoulder with his hand, and blamed in a soft voice,

"This blue sky, you, you are really not ashamed!"

With that, he turned around and hummed quickly, and took small steps back to the room and closed the door.

Qingyu looked at the scene in front of her and was also shy, don't want it, Leng didn't know what to do at this time.

Zhang Yuan took the lead in breaking the embarrassment, he didn't expect Qingwu this little girl to be so young, haha, and said to Qingyu: "Yu'er, let's go, let's go to your house together, Young Master Ben has something to discuss with you." ”

"Oh, oh, good young master. ”

Entering the house, Zhang Yuan coughed twice, as if he had forgotten about the previous teasing and light dance, and said cheekily,

"This ...... You also know that I was with the lord just now, and I decided there that I would go to the account office and get a hundred taels of silver and do my own business. ”

"Ah???h

Hearing this, Qingwu and Qingyu opened their mouths in surprise, why did they have to leave again when they just came back?

"Listen to me first, I take a hundred taels of silver for business, and it doesn't mean that I will leave. Secondly, this also means that from now on, in terms of money, I will not accept the support of the Zhang Mansion except for this one hundred taels.

And you, the monthly salary in the future will not be received in the account office, but will be distributed directly to you through me, but for the time being, whether it will be good or bad in the future is unknown, if it becomes I will guarantee that your money will definitely be a lot, if it fails...... There's nothing left......

So that's why I'm looking for you, I hope you will discuss it seriously, whether to continue to follow me or go back to the second master to do things is up to your wishes, rest assured, if you want to go, I won't have any complaints. ”

After Zhang Yuan finished speaking, Qingwu and Qingyu were silent for a while, and both of them frowned.

This was also expected by him, after all, they had only been together for two days, although there were a lot of things that happened in the past two days and they were always joking, but at present, it was related to their future lives, how could they answer hastily.

"That...... You guys think about it, don't rush to answer me, it's not too early at the moment, I'll leave first. ”

Zhang Yuan pushed open the door and walked out to return to his room.

......

In the early morning of the next day, Zhang Yuan got up early, and saw that the door of the two maids was still closed, so he planned to go out to the street to take a stroll again.

This shopping is different from yesterday, this time with a purpose.

In fact, he has already thought about it, and among the current business, only the restaurant is the most suitable for the current situation.

First, the people who come and go to the restaurant are mixed, which is convenient for the collection of information resources. Second, it doesn't take much money to open a restaurant, and it doesn't cost much.

However, it is only a hundred taels of silver in total, and it is impossible to buy a restaurant, so I can only settle for the next best thing and go out to see if there is a place to rent.

Different from the Internet information age in the 21st century, renting and buying a house or something will show all kinds of information on the Internet, and you can only rely on inquiries here.

happened to be a little hungry, Zhang Yuan chose to go to a similar inn in Qingping County Tongfu Inn to try his luck, maybe he could inquire about anything.

It's still a little early, and there are no customers in the inn, and the shopkeeper is still lying on the table.

"Hey, shopkeeper!"

Zhang Yuan slapped his body with one hand and shouted loudly.

This voice frightened the shopkeeper, and he quickly stood up and said in a panic,

"What, what's wrong?!"

"Huh, you're a kid?"

"Is that you?"

The two of them said at the same time, at first the shopkeeper was lying on his stomach Zhang Yuan didn't pay attention, but this time he saw that this person was still an acquaintance, to be precise, an acquaintance who had met once.

"You were the jack-of-all-trades who was at my second uncle's house two days ago, but I didn't expect you to be the boss here. ”

The jack-of-all-trades smiled awkwardly: "The contemptible surname Fang Minghao has opened such an inn here, and friends on the rivers and lakes have given him such a nickname for his face." ”

The goods began to be loaded here again, he didn't hear that Zhang Yuan's know-it-all just now was ridiculing him, but he didn't expect to climb along the pole net. But fortunately he was there that day, otherwise I don't know what to do.

Zhang Yuan smiled and arched his hand at him, "It turned out to be Brother Fang, disrespectful and disrespectful." ”

Fang Hao always felt that he was a person with a background, and he also returned a salute and said: "I have long wanted to have a drink with you, but I have never had the opportunity, and today's chance meeting proves that we have this fate." Today, brother, you're welcome, I'll be the east. ”

Zhang Yuan originally wanted to inquire about the restaurant, and with this know-it-all, it should be easier, so it is not hypocritical.

"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey. ”

The two of them sat on the table and took a sip of wine, Fang Hao patted his chest angrily, "Brother, it's not my brother who said, although I don't have the right and I don't have any money in your family, but when it comes to the big and small affairs in Qingping County, or even a pair of grasshoppers falling in love, there is nothing I don't know." ”

Poof, this guy is really good enough to blow!But Zhang Yuan couldn't say anything, after all, he still had something to beg for others, so he gave a thumbs up,

"Brother Fang, you are powerful, powerful, but right now I just have something I want to ask. ”

"You say. ”

"Do we have any restaurants for rent at the moment?"

Fang Hao frowned, closed his eyes and thought about it,

"Rent...... Not really, but there is a restaurant that is selling at a low price, I wonder what are you doing when you inquire about this, brother?"

"Oh, my dad asked me to come out and inquire, and I don't know exactly what it is. ”
