Chapter 87: No Faith, No Standing
The test was not over, Zhao Yi found that the light emitted by the jade talisman this time was a little strange, and before he could think deeply, he drowned in the white light and started the next test.
"My head hurts!" a young man woke up slowly, and before he could look at his surroundings, a maid waiting for him next to him shouted, "The young master is awake!
The boy pressed his forehead, and the memory of three days ago appeared in his mind, as if he went to the Qinglou with his friends to drink, and when he came back, he passed through the moat, but he fell into the river and fell into a coma when he was scooped up. Then he sat in a long dream, in which there were so many strange things, that he himself became a prince...... Thinking about it, he grinned.
"Noel!" a woman's call interrupted the boy's reverie, and the woman pushed open the door and entered. This woman is the young man's mother, Xu, the young man's name is Xu Nuo, the promise is not light, a promise of a thousand gold, because the father of the promise is a member of the Xu family, so he promised to follow his mother's surname, and his father disappeared after he was born.
Xu promised to see his mother coming, and struggled, but he felt weak and couldn't get up, so he had to call: "Mother." Xu Shi walked up to Xu Promise, hugged his head and cried, and after a while he muttered: "Nuo'er, your father left me after you were born, and you don't care about yourself so much, do you want to leave your mother?
"Mother, mother, this time it's me who is wrong, I won't dare in the future! I swear!" promised to comfort his mother hurriedly. Xu Shi felt better, and said with palpitations: "Nuo'er, I told you to cut off the relationship with your fox friends and dogs, but you didn't listen, something happened this time, right? If it weren't for the boatlady passing by, otherwise you would have died." You have been unconscious for the past three days, and it also makes me frightened, you are gone, how can you live for your mother!" He began to cry again.
The Xu family only has one only daughter of the Xu family, and the Xu family only has such a son, the whole family treats him as a treasure, and usually does something, as long as it is not too excessive, everyone is up to him. Fortunately, he usually does things in a measured manner, at most he eats and drinks with friends, plays cards, fights cocks or something, but he is not too out of line. It's just that this time I almost lost my life and sounded the alarm bell for my family, and I can't go on like this.
In fact, the reason why Xu Yu went to the Qinglou to drink flower wine so easily was because he had just entered his teenage years, and it was when he was interested in all this that he was instigated by a few buddies, so he was dizzy and followed. At this time, when he heard that his mother began to wipe away his tears again, he also knew that he was wrong, and said hurriedly: "Mother, the children have all admitted their mistakes, don't cry, okay? You say, what do you want me to do? I will listen to you!" Although he likes to mess around, he is very filial to his mother.
"Really, then I'll tell your grandfather to leave the grocery store in town to you so you don't go out and mess around. Seeing that his son was telling the truth, Xu thought that his son was now fourteen years old, and it was time to start exercising. The Xu family's huge family business still needs him to inherit it!
"This?" Xu Promise looked embarrassed, he never thought that his mother would leave the grocery store to take care of himself, and he had just turned fourteen. Xu Shi also saw that his son was retreating in his heart, and without waiting for him to finish speaking, he continued to agitate: "Promise is not lightly, promise a thousand gold, Nuo'er, do you want to regret it?"
After all, he promised that he was a young man, and when he heard his mother say this, his face turned pale, and he said categorically: "Don't underestimate people, who wants to regret it?" ”
In the next few days, he promised to concentrate on recuperating at home, and his body slowly recovered, as if an experience made him change his personality and no longer go out to mess around. After he recovered, he personally went to thank the boat lady for saving his life, and made a wish, and prepared to take over the grocery store in the city.
The sky was still blue, but the mood of the promise was completely different from before, he knew that from today onwards he would be the owner of a shop, and he knew that his mother had also taken a lot of effort to ask for the grocery store from his grandfather, and if he did not run well, his mother would also be disgraced.
The grocery store is not in a good position, but there are some businesses that can barely make a slight surplus, and now they promise to take over as the shopkeeper, and there are only two guys left in the store. The guy naturally knew that Xu Yu would come to take over the position of the shopkeeper, and when he saw Xu Yu coming, he greeted him very warmly.
Xu promised that he had just arrived, and he should encourage the men more, and when the guests dispersed, he beckoned the men and gathered in front of him, and he said, "You guys hurry up, the store has made money, and it has its own benefits, and I will give you processing money." Sure enough, the two guys were more active, and they were more attentive to greeting customers, and by the end of the month, the store's revenue was 10% higher.
It's just that after another month, Xu Promise found that the store's income was not rising but falling, and he couldn't even barely make ends meet, so he reprimanded the guy a few words, and the guy was also angry. He began to get anxious, if this continued, the shop would have to close, no, he had to find out the reason, and under his repeated questioning, one of the men muttered: "I said that I would give us money for processing, but I didn't add it." ”
Xu Yu patted his head, and then remembered that he had said that the store would make money and process the money, but then he forgot about it as soon as he was happy, and hurriedly said to the two guys: "This thing is my fault, the salary should be increased or must be increased, and it will be sent to everyone after a while, but what should I do in the current situation?
Hearing that the money for processing was going to be obtained, the enthusiasm of the two men immediately increased, and at first you and I suggested every word, and kept all the promises in my heart, and when the matter was done, he settled the part of the salary that he promised to pay the fellows.
"Promise, promise, promise is not light, promise a thousand gold!" the promise secretly reminded himself. He observed for a while, and found that the guys sometimes used shoddy and fraudulent goods in order to sell the goods, and although the things were sold at that time, the customers who bought the goods never came.
Promise harshly criticized the fellow, and reviewed the consequences with the fellow. Although the merchant is profitable, he does not stand without faith. Promise to be aware of a good signboard and attract many customers. And a defective product will ruin the sign that has taken a lot of effort to build.
Suddenly, he had some strange ideas in his mind, and he first made a contract with his partner in black and white, clarifying the duties and rights of both parties. Then he changed a signboard in front of the store, called Integrity Grocery Store, and it was written below that the promise was not lightly, a promise was made for a thousand gold, and the goods in this store would be sold once they were sold, and the fake one would pay ten.
Sure enough, as soon as the signboard was hung up, many people came to watch, and one person bought a defective product. After really getting ten times the compensation, the business of the grocery store became hot for a while, and after signing the contract, the guy worked even harder, writing there in black and white, and his share of wages would not be less, so naturally he would get more if he did more.
Three years later, at the age of seventeen, the popularity of the grocery store allowed him to smoothly take over all the business of the Xu family, after he married a wife and had children, Xu told him about his father, it turned out that his father was an orphan, and finally met his mother Xu, because his father was helpless, and the Xu family was powerful, so he joined the Xu family, and later after the promise was born, his father could not stand the ridicule of others, so he ran away from home. It was in this way that his mother, Xu, named him Xu Promise.
Xu Promise clenched his fists, and he began to spend huge manpower and material resources to find his biological father, he felt the need to make up for his mother's regrets, and his father also lacked an apology. Finally, in a monastery, Xu Promise found his father, who had become a monk, and when he exclaimed, "The four monks are empty, are you empty? Do you have no guilt in your heart? Do you know what my name is? ”
Promise father stupidly read: "Promise is not light, a promise is a thousand gold." I thought that I had promised my wife to join the Xu family, but I couldn't stand the pressure and fled. Promises are not lightly promised, and promises are made with a thousand gold. Yes, after all, he still owes his wife, his children, and his Xu family a promise! In the end, he still decided to return to the vulgar, and his heart was already confused, where did he become a monk.
When the promised son grew up and had grandchildren, he also slowly grew old, and he summed up his life and came up with one word "faith". Faith is the words of people, words spoken, water spilled, a spit and a nail, faith is like his own name, a promise is not lightly, a promise of gold. It's a promise that says it......
The promise consciousness slowly faded, and he finally understood that the experience in his dream was real, and he was Zhao Yi, the white light rose, and he found that he didn't go back this time, part of the white light separated, and part of the white light was wrapped in his consciousness and went in another direction......
