Chapter Twenty-Seven: Meng Yuan Boy
Gu Huai, who had finished the matter, naturally didn't know that he was just checking and filling in the gaps, but he let the counterattack of the Yan Wangfu fall into the void, and even gave Zhang Hao a reason to clean up the officialdom of Beiping, but even if he knew, it was estimated that there would be no psychological fluctuations, because it diverted the attention of these big men to Pu Hong's case... That's what he's going to do.
At this moment, he just looked at the young man in front of him and had a headache, because the panting young man didn't seem to be ready to take away the two pieces of silver.
"Don't get paid when you're done?"
The boy swallowed with difficulty: "Big... Man, I want a way to live. ”
"My lord is a title for an official, and I don't have an official position, so it's a bit out of the way to call it," Gu Huai walked slowly, "and what does it mean to want a way to live?" ”
"Ah Da Ah Er and they are all dead, this winter is very difficult," the young man also followed, "Those bosses want to drive us out, and the 94 gang wants to kill us, so we are left alone." ”
"What's my business?" Gu Huai didn't reply, "I give money, you do things, but you want to rely on me after you finish your work?" ”
Gu Huai coldly fell: "You are a little greedy. ”
"I can hit people."
"It has nothing to do with me if you can kill someone."
"I eat less."
"It's a good thing, it shouldn't be too difficult to survive this winter."
"I can do a lot of things."
"There is no household registration guide, there is no place to return, how big must my heart be to take you in?"
Gu Huai leaned sideways and let a couple go: "Give you one or two more, this matter is over." ”
But apparently a saturated meal is still clear from a full young man, and the most proficient person in the street is the ability to look at people, which vendor just roars fiercely, which scholar's money bag is the best to steal, which patrol the city can make himself have a place to live and will not arrest people...
He shook his head firmly: "I don't want money, I can do things, I don't need money." ”
Don't want to be paid? Gu Huai's footsteps paused.
The shop is open... Xiaohuan can't be busy... I don't want to go to the hard work of buying wine and picking flowers... The door panel can also be used as a bed when it is removed...
He stopped: "What's your name?" ”
"Nohae."
"What do you mean?"
The young man's long hair covered his eyebrows: "Wolf." ”
......
"Aunt... The young master is back. ”
Xiaohuan, who was standing at the door of the shop, rubbed his face, feeling that his face was about to stiffen after laughing all morning.
Gu Huai's gaze crossed Xiaohuan and threw himself into the shop, where the maids who were eagerly discussing perfume: "How's the business?" ”
"It's all sold out," Xiaohuan stuck out her tongue, "and they don't want to go." ”
"There are so many Qinglou in Beiping, a red-card girl must also buy other red-card girls, it seems that this is the right way to go," Gu Huai smiled, "But there must be drawbacks, starting from the mid-end market, it is not easy to enter the high-end market." ”
"High-end... Market? ”
"Powerful ladies and the like, the things that the women in the Qinglou are popular, they must be a little mustard," Gu Huai walked into the shop, "But it's not a big problem, one uses it and the rest of the people will naturally use it." ”
He tilted his head slightly: "Where is the place where there are many flowers in Beiping?" ”
This was asked at Nuo Hai, and Nuo Hai, who had been keeping his head down under the gaze of the pretty little girl, stammered a little: "North... Behind the palace wall of the north city, there are many flowers. ”
"What kind of flowers?"
These words obviously stumped Nuohai, who was not very proficient in Chinese, and he was dumbfounded for a long time, unable to tell the type of flower.
“... Forget it, I'll take a look for myself when I have time," Gu Huai shook his head helplessly, and shouted at the guests in the shop, "It's closed, everyone!" Tomorrow morning, please! ”
"Ouch, why is it closed at noon?"
"That's it! My young lady has been waiting for several days, so she can't sell more? ”
"The girl from Mingyuefang said that she can't even use perfume, and she dares to call her a red card girl?"
"The shopkeeper's shopkeeper has something to talk about!"
A group of warblers and warblers suddenly had an extra male voice, the recognition was too high, Gu Huai was about to let Xiaohuan close the door of the shop, and when he looked back, he saw a shrewd middle-aged man with a two-handful of beards enthusiastically coming up:
"Can the shopkeeper move on to it?"
"It's so papery..."Gu Huai was stunned, and suddenly became enthusiastic: "Could it be that big business is coming to the door?" ”
"The shopkeeper has a vision, and there are many big businessmen in Beiping, but my patron is a first-class rich man, and he will never let the shopkeeper suffer."
"It's easy to say," invited the maids away, and asked Xiaohuan to hang a sign that the door was closed, Gu Huai invited the middle-aged man to sit down, and glanced at Nuohai: "Tea." ”
The boy obediently handed over the teacup.
"It's... Shop guys? The shape is a little unique," the middle-aged man was stunned.
The ridicule was a little heavy, and Gu Huai didn't care: "This guest, please say it directly." ”
The middle-aged man took out a silver ticket from his sleeve: "Perfume is such a gadget, it has spread in Beiping in the past few days, although it is an object passed down by word of mouth by prostitutes in Qinglou, but my patron does have some interest, and it is not easy for the shopkeeper to open a shop, and this manpower and material resources can't keep up, so it is a waste of such a novelty. ”
Gu Huai glanced at it, it was a silver ticket of one hundred taels, the enthusiasm for the big business to come to the door gradually faded, and the smile on his face became a little colder: "Do you want to buy a formula?" ”
"Exactly, one hundred taels is a fixed amount, I took the formula, made the real thing, and the remaining one hundred taels of hands were served," the middle-aged man picked up the tea, "Two hundred taels to buy a small object, my customer is quite generous?" ”
"Generous, too generous," Gu Huai smiled, "How many customers did I have in this shop just now?" ”
"More than a dozen, business is not bad," the middle-aged man took a sip of tea, and his hands were burned to loosen: "Ouch, why don't you cool down?" ”
The teacup fell to the ground, Gu Huai looked at it quietly, with a strange expression: "A bottle of perfume is five taels, a few dozen guests a day, and there are so many that you can't buy it, but the guests you came to the door and said that you wanted two hundred taels to receive the formula, and you actually said that you were generous?" ”
"Will I not be able to settle accounts, or will your customers not be counted?"
"That's not how the accounts are calculated," the middle-aged man wiped his mouth, "Beiping is a big place, it's not easy to open a shop, and the shopkeeper must also know that it's better to take care of the things in the ditch on this official face..."
"Threatening me?"
"Huh?"
"You're threatening me?" Gu Huaiwei turned his face sideways, "If you don't sell the formula, what will happen if you can't keep it all right?" ”
The middle-aged man froze, and suddenly smiled: "Almost." ”
"Who are the patrons of the guests?"
"This doesn't have to worry about the shopkeeper, the silver shopkeeper has accepted, and naturally there are many benefits, maybe it can be looked at by my patrons, but the meaning of the shopkeeper, I'm afraid it's not interested?"
"Yes, not interested."
"Then I'll leave now," the middle-aged man sighed, "and when the etiquette is enough, there will be nothing to talk about." ”
"That's the truth, the guests are also sincere," Gu Huai got up and walked to the backyard, "Nuohai, send off!" ”
