Chapter 10: The Girl
The two of them found a carriage in the carriage and horse shop, then they definitely didn't want to go back, thanks to this is a big market, as the largest commercial market in Jiankang, the things sold and the services provided are very complete, otherwise the general grass market is really hard to find.
Liu San's initial suggestion was to take a cheaper sedan chair, but Liu Yifu vetoed it, and the reason given by Liu Yifu was that the sedan chair was too bumpy and couldn't stand it, of course, it was just an excuse, as long as the money was in place...... In fact, Liu Yifu is still resistant to using people as livestock in his heart, even if he chooses a more expensive carriage, even if he is very loser in the eyes of others.
Liu Dashao also understands that whether it is himself or the ancients, some values are formed over the years, and the people of the world can't change them, and he doesn't mean that he can adapt to some values of this era in just three or four years, and Liu Yifu will not force others to accept his own set, of course, if he has the opportunity, he has gathered a group of people, and he will appropriately change some of their concepts, but there is a high probability that he will sit in the highest position in the future, and he will not expect to change too much, for example, if Liu Yifu dares to play Minzhuo Republic before the Western Yuan, if you dare to delegate power yourself, you can also think with your ass that the cliff will be directly erected by the old oil officials, and then be taught to be a man by the iron fist of the bureaucracy......
Of course, if you are in a prosperous era, the society is stable, and you are not a royal family, you are destined not to get to that position, and you can only become one person in your life, then for this kind of extremely inflated power that can only be suppressed by "heaven and man induction", the other party's words can get rid of your black yarn hat and ask for your own dog's life, and you naturally have unreasonable power of life and death for everyone.
If other people may feel accustomed to it, but they will have an extremely uncomfortable rejection and want to resist, then the so-called "forming a party for personal gain" will inevitably develop their power, and in the end they may become the "chaotic ministers and thieves" recorded in the history books.
Of course, this is not that Liu Yifu was born a two-five boy, the butt determines the head, and the perspective of what position to see the problem is.
Don't be in a hurry, change your concept or something, take your time in the future......
However, from Liu San's point of view, this is Lang Jun's understanding of himself, if he takes a sedan chair, he can only follow on foot, but by taking a carriage, he can also sit in front of the carriage with the coachman.
……
Ling Sexuan's shopkeeper Zhang really didn't say anything about people, he said people when he saw people, and he talked about ghosts when he saw them, and he was an excellent businessman's "quality", and Zhang's shopkeeper did not poke it very much. A person with high emotional intelligence, talking to him will make people feel like a spring breeze, very comfortable, and when facing other people's embarrassment, he can always skillfully return to the circle.
The other party is a guest, and the identity is not accurate, yes, the shopkeeper Zhang will not have some messy ideas because of his age, people are shrewd, don't bully the young poor This kind of slap in the face, well, there are few opportunities to meet normally. In the end, the shopkeeper Zhang still got up in accordance with the rules and sent the "two brothers" of the Liu family out according to the send-off etiquette, and he couldn't find fault with the etiquette, and then turned around and returned to the second floor.
As soon as the fat shopkeeper went upstairs, he found that the futon that Liu Yifu was kneeling on the second floor had been put aside, and there was a new futon in the original position, and there was a girl who looked to be about thirteen or fourteen years old kneeling.
The girl has a good face, no powder, her face is slightly pointed, her clear eyes follow the figure of the shopkeeper, reflecting the figure of the other party, and there is a faint tear mole under the left eye, which makes her eyes more charming.
Most of today's women like to wear skirts, but she wears more complex curved Hanfu, the clothes are only plain, and there are no other complicated embroidery patterns such as flowers, birds, fish and insects, etc., with a hairpin on her head, and her hair is loosely pulled up, the girl is dressed plainly, but her temperament is natural, if Liu Yifu saw this girl when she was just there, she would definitely slander her belly, although the yellow-haired girl has not yet grown up, her face is still not poked.
A woman of this age, if Liu Yifu comes to see it, the other party is definitely revealing her youth everywhere, but well, in this era, many girls of this age have already become mothers, and some even have a few children's numbness, and seeing that this girl has not opened, it is to judge that the other party is not married, and it can be said that she is an "older leftover girl".
Population has always been an important resource in all dynasties, and the Han Dynasty forced women to pay double taxes if they did not marry at fifteen; The Tang and Song dynasties stipulated that all men were fifteen and thirteen women could get married, but there was no compulsion, sandwiched in the middle, the more chaotic Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, the social turmoil caused by human factors such as war, and the population plummeted, so they could only be forced to raise the marriageable age earlier, this girl had not yet opened her face at a glance, and she had not yet married, so it was no problem to call it an "older leftover woman" at this time.
What Liu Yifu doesn't know is that he has long known the black history of his jumping up and down at home, but he is too lazy to care, and he has long wanted to get engaged to him and get married early, and with a family, he can let his eldest son take care of it, but he has not found a suitable person, and he has been on the southern expedition to the north, and he always has no time, didn't he just go to suppress the noisy Yan Kingdom in the north not long ago, it is estimated that Liu Yifu will be stunned when he knows, he is engaged at the age of five, so at what age do you plan to let me get married? What about the cheat! Oh no, pit son!
Xiao Liu Gongzi has had a lot of drama in his heart since he was a child, and he knows that if he says something, he will anger many people, but before these people die of anger, they will be killed by these people in minutes.
When the shopkeeper saw the other party, he didn't show any surprise, as if he was used to it:
"Qing has been behind the screen next to him just now, right?"
The girl's big eyes were bent, and she said with a hint of a smile:
"When my uncle came up, the concubine was reading a book here, so I had no choice but to ask someone to bring a futon and hide behind the screen."
Shopkeeper Zhang is also a little helpless, he can't hear that this is just an excuse, but his niece has not married at this age, and his uncle is more or less self-blaming. And then my niece didn't have this idea, and it was not good to force this poor man whose parents died, after all these years, the hurdle in my heart should also pass, and I want to give my niece a certain marriage......
"What do you think of Liu Yifu?" Shopkeeper Zhang opened his mouth and asked, well, his thoughts are self-evident.
The girl didn't understand her uncle's thoughts, so she said helplessly:
"The concubine privately thought that Liu Yifu was a little wooden, Liu Yifu was really good, but he was too young."
Shopkeeper Zhang nodded, his views on the "brothers" are basically similar, but it is impossible to be so hasty in the major event of marriage, just explore the bottom first to see what criteria his niece's mate selection is.
The girl doesn't doubt him, after all, her age is here, and it's normal for her uncle to be anxious, and this situation is not less than a few times, after all, compared to the matchmaker to make peace, the uncle still respects his wishes very much, that Xiao Langjun is not bad, but the person is really too young.
"By the way, Qing is well-informed and knowledgeable, can you know which history book the allusion to 'Lu Na's nephew' comes from?" The shopkeeper Zhang seemed to think of something, and changed the topic.
Shopkeeper Zhang knows that his niece often likes to compare Xie Daoyun, she often regrets that Xie Daoyun married Wang Ningzhi of Mu Ne, he also knows that his niece does have such talent, and he is not without similar fears about his marriage, so he can only say that fortunately, his niece does not have the pressure of marriage, and he is fortunate in misfortune.
Who knew that the other party "poofed" and replied:
"When I just heard what Xiao Langjun said, the concubine almost lost her voice, Lu Na has some reputation, and the concubine has also heard about this matter, but it is definitely not from the history books."
So the girl told the shopkeeper about the ins and outs of this matter.
It turns out that this Lu Na himself is a Jin person, and the Eastern Jin Dynasty is not dead, and he only hung up a few years ago, how could he run to the history books so quickly, this is a matter of common sense, so this girl is laughing at this.
Among Lu Na's relatives, Lu Xun, the governor of Eastern Wu who has been pushed up for several generations, has already appeared in the "Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms", of course, it is also a shame that Lu Na himself is also very famous among the scholars, and the matter of "Lu Na's cane nephew" is also quite famous at the moment, so the two of them are not suspicious, they just think that Xiao Pengyu wants to be tall and high, and he just quoted something and dropped his book bag.
But obviously, this girl is also a well-informed person, and what she has learned is quite complicated, otherwise she would not have reacted so quickly.
Suddenly, the girl seemed to remember something, and asked:
"The concubine remembered that my uncle obviously had new tea that had not been dried, why did she tell that Xiao Langjun that there was not?"
Shopkeeper Zhang laughed, and only after laughing did he say:
"This is that you don't understand business, in fact, the reason is very simple, that Xiao Langjun asked if there was any new tea that was not dried, and the servant knew that he might want to buy it, but this goods are not ordinary goods, but if the servant and that Xiao Langjun said that there is, then the two sides are actually still trading between them, and there is no human affection at all, but the servant said no, you need to use your own connections, you need to delay for two or three days, and what they get is not so easy, then you have to accept the servant's feelings, of course, this is a small love, and the profit sharing is the big love."
Speaking of this, the fat shopkeeper couldn't help but feel a little proud, of course, he didn't tell his niece, profit sharing is just a gimmick, there is the best to earn, and we don't lose if we don't have to earn.
"Is it worth it for a little child to do this?" The girl was a little curious.
The fat shopkeeper smiled, "The servant has been going south and north for so many years, and I have seen a lot of people, never underestimate anyone, Confucius said, 'Threesome, there must be my teacher', not to mention that the identity of this little Langjun is not simple, and the servant still has a little trick to know people." ”
"First of all, the older person must not be his brother, it may be a friend or relative or something, secondly, this business is actually based on Xiaolang, Dalang is not good at words, it is estimated that the girl also heard it, although the Lang Jun is young, but he looks old, and he is not panicked at all when he encounters unexpected things, and he treats people and things in an orderly manner, which is rare for a child at such a young age."
To sum up, in fact, what the shopkeeper Zhang said was "precocious", well, if he knew that Liu Yifu and his two generations were almost thirty years old, he would be able to understand it.
The fat shopkeeper paused, raised his head slightly to make a reminiscence, and continued:
"That Xiao Langjun is wearing our Shu brocade, and now a high-grade Shu brocade is worth 20,000 yuan, which is priceless in the market, it can be seen that this Xiao Langjun's family is not bad for money, it is powerful, so it is better to make a small incense love, and it will be of great use in the future."
The reason why Liu Yifu really made up his mind to let Liu Yifu's behavior of taking what he wanted was fully accepted by the fat shopkeeper may not have expected that it was the Shu brocade on his body......
The fat shopkeeper glanced at the girl, and sighed secretly in his heart, This is also for you, but the big one is not good, and the small one is suitable, well, this matter can't be rushed, you have to figure it slowly......
After hearing this, the girl smiled and said, "Uncle is worthy of having a delicate heart, and he thinks a lot. ”
The fat shopkeeper smiled and didn't speak, but what he wanted was to ask people to inquire about the true identity of "Liu Yifu and Liu Yizhen" for a while, and he would actually be suspicious, is the identity used by the other party real......
