Chapter Forty-Nine: The Familiar Handover
Hearing Su Shi's confident answer, the clay man Zhang nodded again and again, "Okay, that relationship is good, young master, I'll just wait." ”
"Okay."
It had been a quarter of an hour since Su Shi returned to the room, and although he had been standing outside the door for a while, letting the cold wind blow for a while, there was still a bloody aura on his body that could not be lingered for a short time.
Yue Siling just had a slight wrinkle in his nose and smelled it. But he didn't say anything, and waited for Su Shi to wash up as before.
In the end, when Yue Siling wanted to hug Su Shi to bed, Su Shi shook his head, and then he stood up from the wooden chair and walked to the side of the bed.
"Ahh Master, can you go by yourself? Seeing this, Yue Siling said with a surprised expression.
"Hmm." Su Shi smiled and nodded, "But this is a secret between the two of us, don't tell anyone else." ”
When he heard that it was just a secret between the two, Yue Siling hurriedly nodded happily.
......
When a new day came, Bianliang City was full of vitality again.
In the morning, all kinds of breakfast sellers, shouting and shouting one after another, endlessly.
The people living here in Jiuzhou Bridge are all rich people, and there are even many powerful people, so the hawkers naturally dare not sell in such a place.
Su Shi got up, full of energy and energy.
"Young Master, what are you going to do today? Do you go to the Yamen to report? Yue Siling, who was chattering like a little magpie, asked with curiosity while waiting for Su Shi to wash.
"Yamen?" Su Shi was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that he was now one of the officials of the Great Song Dynasty. At the moment, he smiled bitterly and said: "Tong Zhilang is just a loose official, there is no fixed yamen, I naturally don't have to go to the mao, there are other important things to do today, you can also clean up." ”
"Ahh Can I go too? Yue Siling pointed at himself in disbelief.
"Of course." Su Shi nodded. No matter what the status of women in the Great Song Dynasty was, in his eyes, everyone was still equal. Besides, it's not about talking to any important person, Zuo is just doing some finishing touches for last night's events, and it's okay to take Yue Siling with you.
Hearing that she could really follow along, Yue Siling was really excited, this is no longer as simple as a maid, but the treatment that a lady should have in many cases.
Of course, Yue Siling has her own self-knowledge, and her background is destined to be difficult to become Su Shi's main room. Not to mention, the family is now an official, and the gap between the two is even more distant.
The clay figure Zhang didn't rest much at night, and he was accompanied by old fritters, who also didn't sleep all night.
God knows, how can his figure be similar to Qian Bao?
The old fritter has every reason to think that it is the clay man Zhang who thinks he is too idle and wants to find something to do for himself.
But even if he finds himself, the old fritter has no reason to refuse. After eating so much and drinking so much, you should have done something for the young master a long time ago, right?
Under the dress of the clay figurine, the most important thing is that after putting on the robe that Qian Bao usually wears, a living Qian Bao appeared.
One morning, while many people have not yet gotten up, old fritters! No, it was "Qian Bao" who left Su Mansion and hid into the lively Bianliang City.
After breakfast with the crowd, the carriage came. This time, Su Shi was not wearing a cloth robe, but changed into a white brocade coat. Now he is also an official, and he is finally qualified to wear silk without any restrictions.
After the wooden chair got on the canopy carriage, it also followed the whip in the hand of the little white pigeon, which moved slowly, and the target was directly aimed at Fan Lou.
Fan Lou, located at the north end of Bianliang Royal Street, was the most famous restaurant at that time. It is also known as the alum building.
The building is three floors high, the fifth floor is facing each other, each has a flying bridge to communicate, gorgeous and magnificent, and the daily customers are often more than 1,000 people.
Song, Liu Zihui "Bianjing Chronicle" poem seventeen: "I remember how happy my youth was, and I went to Fanlou in the middle of the night." ”
"Ancient and Modern Novels: Zhao Bosheng's Tea Shop Meets Renzong": "It will be half an hour, and I will see a restaurant, which is not high!" It is the famous Fan Tower. ”
Qing, Zhao Yi's "West Lake Yonggu" No. 4: "Sanzhu Fengluan is not Genyue, and the lights in the two corners are like Fan Towers." ”
Fan Tower is not only famous, but also extremely tall, even more exaggerated, standing on top of Fan Tower, can actually see the Great Song Dynasty Imperial City. If you have a telescope in your hand, you can really see a lot of things that are not humane.
It is also through this incident that it can be seen that the enlightenment of the Great Song royal family. If you try the same thing on Li Laosan and Zhu Chongba, you will keep it and your family will be ruined overnight.
Su Shi will come to Fanlou in order to meet with "Qian Bao". He needs to let everyone know that all of Qian Bao's goods are covered by himself. If anyone is looking for themselves in something like that.
It is also inevitable to replace Qian Bao and regain the initiative. Think about it, if Su Shi hadn't started fast enough, I was afraid that he would have been betrayed in a few days, and at that time, what kind of storm would he usher in when he was completely unprepared was something he didn't even dare to think about.
The carriage traveled through the street, and Lou Yang, Long Xingyun, Hu Xingfeng, Wang Tong and others acted as guards to ensure safety.
In the dark, there are masters like lone wolves lurking in the dark, unless it is a premeditated assassination, otherwise, it is not very easy to threaten Su Shi's safety.
The carriage stopped at the gate of Fanlou, lowered the slope, and the young man in white sitting on the wooden chair came out and appeared in the sight of many people.
"Huh? Which young master or son of this family is this, but he is really handsome? ”
"Hey, it's a pity that he is sitting on a wooden chair, he is really blind to this good skin."
"Well, Su Zi Xiaoqi, which Su family is it?"
On both sides of the gate of the Fan Tower, many people are whispering here. Some of them are tooth men, some are skilled in trade, and some are scholars.
But no matter who they are, the purpose is the same, that is, to find a way to sell themselves, hoping to be appreciated by which master and have a place to stand. If you are lucky, it is not necessarily impossible to fight for a bright future.
Like tooth people, if the old man needs it, they can provide all kinds of services. What kind of person you need, as long as you give money, they can find it for you, or a variety of choices, including the one you are satisfied with.
Those who know skills, or some kung fu, or some other skills. There are also people who seem to be selling something, just like Yang Zhi in the Water Margin who sold knives and chose to trade here. It's just a pity that he doesn't even have the capital to enter Fan Lou, so he doesn't know.
As for the readers, of course, what they sell is themselves. They can be bookkeepers, stewards, stewards. With a place to stand, they will also study hard in private, hoping to gain a reputation and fight for their own life.
And if you want to achieve all the above goals, the powerful are undoubtedly the best choice. As the largest restaurant in Bianliang City, it is also the most expensive restaurant, and it can be said that they can come here to consume either rich or expensive, which is the goal they can choose.
The appearance of Su Shi naturally attracted the attention of these people. But when they saw that he was not only a cripple, but also a teenager, everyone turned their heads away.
A teenager is just a teenager, how much voice can he have at home?
And young people's hearts are unstable, and they are the most difficult to serve. It's better to focus on others.
Su Shi didn't pay attention to these people, sitting on the wooden chair, he looked more at the height and breadth of Fan Lou.
"Well, this place is good, I just don't know if it's for sale."
This was the first thought in Su Shi's heart.
Of course, if anyone knew that this young man in white was thinking this, I am afraid that he would soon laugh off his big teeth.
This is a fan building, the place is expensive, and the amount of silver money is needed, like an astronomical amount. Do you think anyone can buy it?
Also, if you want to buy Fan Lou, at least you have to know who the owner here is. If you don't even know who it is, then how can you talk about buying and selling?
Naturally, Su Shi is just thinking about it. With his current financial resources, he still can't buy Fan Lou, after all, he didn't want to make a big splash before, so he didn't sell too many goods, but he can't say for sure in the future.
"Young master, the person is on the third floor, the third in the sky." Lou Yang stepped forward and whispered. After getting Su Shi's instructions, this pushed him straight to the third floor.
Yue Siling on the side followed step by step, her mood was excited, and her eyes were a little insufficient, obviously everything here was so prosperous in her eyes, and it did have a great attraction for a thirteen-year-old girl who had no knowledge.
No. 3 on the third floor, the old fritters who have made up Qian Bao are sitting here, only when no one pays attention, they will scratch their ears and cheeks, after all, some parts of the hair and beard are pasted on, giving people a very itchy feeling.
Fortunately, Qian Bao will leave in the future, and he will not appear in front of everyone unless necessary, and the old fritter will no longer have to suffer this crime, which is the only thing he should be happy about.
One of the stewards of Fan Lou stood beside "Qian Bao", looking like he was at any time to obey orders.
For this person who has recently stirred up the business of the capital, the steward does not dare to be careless. Who doesn't know, as long as Mr. Qian is happy, the copper coins you give are enough for you to work for a long time before you can earn it?
When he felt some itching in his ears and temples, "Qian Bao" said to the steward on the side: "Go and see, why haven't people come here yet?" ”
"Oh, good, good." The steward hurriedly agreed, and his heart became more curious about the guest who was coming.
I think that in the past, it was everyone else who was waiting for Mr. Qian, when did Mr. Qian wait for others so anxiously?
