Liu Yanchang couldn't answer his son's doubts for a while, so he could only drag his son away quickly.

Father and son came in from the Huaimen of Beimen Town, walked south along the North Gate Street, high-rise buildings lined up on both sides of the street, the Changlou was lit up on that side, and the restaurant here was brilliantly lit, noisy and prosperous, and it was very lively.

The father and son couldn't get enough of it, they only felt that this Yangzhou City was prosperous everywhere, and they couldn't see it every step of the way.

Just like this, he walked for a while, the crescent moon was hanging in the air, the stars were shining, Chen Xiang was a little tired, and couldn't help but ask Lao Liu:

"Dad, do you know where your aunt's family lives?"

"Soon, go south along Beimen Street to Sanyuan Street, then turn left to Sanyuan Lane, and then turn left to Guanfeng Lane" Liu Yanchang lived in Yangzhou before entering Beijing to catch the exam, and he naturally remembered the road after coming to his sister's house.

"Dad, what if my aunt's family moves?"

“... It shouldn't be," Lao Liu shook his head uncertainly.

"Dad, I can't walk, otherwise, let's find an inn to live in, eat something, and then go to my aunt's house at dawn tomorrow."

Liu Yanchang is not familiar with the world, but Chen Xiang and Chen Lao Gou are cunning and cunning, and he went to visit his relatives at night, and he also came to the door empty-handed with a big bag and a small bag, and it was good not to be driven out.

Moreover, poor relatives come to take refuge, even if the aunt who has never met may be nothing, but the uncle may not be.

On this big night, if they are really kicked out, will the father and son sleep on the streets?

Thinking of this, Chen Xiang said again: "Dad, if my uncle doesn't wait to see Agarwood, let's go to the door at this time, what if it is difficult to live in my aunt's house?" ”

"It's... Hey, okay, then let's find a place to live first" Liu Yanchang just read a little too much, and he doesn't understand the world, but people are not stupid, many things, he can figure it out after thinking about it a little.

That's why he has this sigh, he sighs this sigh, sighing that he is useless as a scholar, and he wants to take his son to send someone under the fence.

It's his incompetence as a father!

..

This Yangzhou is prosperous, businessmen gather, and there are many Qinglou Chu Pavilions and inn restaurants.

At this time, it was not yet the curfew time of the three quarters, and the streets were still full of people.

The father and son didn't take a few steps, they met an inn, the inn was not big, but it was also brightly lit, and they walked over, and before they reached the door, a slightly thin and clever shopkeeper greeted them.

"Two, but you want to stay in a hotel? Please please, please come inside, you two are in the right place, our inn has been here since the previous dynasty, and has a history of more than 100 years, in this Yangzhou city, it is also a well-known reputation"

The father and son walked into the store with Xiao Er, and before entering the store, Chen Xiang looked up at the plaque on the door.

The wooden plaque is not big, there are four big red lacquer characters on it [there is an inn], walk into the store, the first floor of the small inn, there are five or six tables and chairs, the tables and chairs are old, and it looks like a bit of a hundred years of flavor.

It's just that

Looking at the brightly lit inn outside, there was only one guest on the first floor, an old man in coarse linen clothes and gray hair.

The old man sat in a corner, with only a pot of wine and a plate of adzuki beans on the table.

In the innermost room on the first floor, behind the wooden counter sat a beautiful woman wearing a tea-white bandeau and a plum-dyed short gown.

She was sitting there reading a book.

"Boss, you're here, two of you, stay in the hotel," Xiao Er shouted to her as he entered the room.

"Well, let's take it upstairs!" The beautiful woman looked up and said casually, then at the book in her hand.

The father and son followed Xiao Er upstairs, turned left into a small windowless room, Liu Yanchang put down the package behind him, took out fifteen copper plates, that is, fifteen cents, and handed them to Xiao Er.

Xiao Er took the money and said with a smile: "Okay, guest officer, you rest, don't bother the small one, if you have an order, just call the small one."

Xiao Er left, Chen Xiang closed the door and climbed directly into bed, ready to sleep.

Along the way, he finally arrived in Yangzhou, and he also saw the prosperity of Yangzhou, even if Chen Xiang was in a hurry to make money and earn merits, he was not in a hurry to make money on this night.

"Agarwood, are you going to sleep here?"

"What's wrong?" Chen Xiang turned around and asked.

"What do you think about the fact that the shopkeeper of the Four Seas Caravan wants to recruit you as a son-in-law?"

Liu Yanchang didn't want to send his son out in a hurry, but thanks to the care of the shopkeeper Sun, he was favored to marry his daughter.

Since he has made a promise, Liu Yanchang wants to go to Sun's Mansion as soon as possible to settle the matter, but, in the final analysis, he still has to ask his son's opinion, if he does not agree, then he can only be a villain who breaks his promise and gains weight.

Even if his son doesn't agree and becomes a villain, he has to go to Sun's Mansion in person and make it clear in person, so Liu Yanchang will have this question.

"Well, it's all up to Daddy."

"In that case, then after going to your aunt's house tomorrow to settle down, my father will go to Sun's Mansion to change the eight characters and settle the matter" Liu Yanchang had a smile on his face.

"Anything else?"

"No, you go to sleep first, and then pack your luggage for your father"

"Hmm"

Chen Xiang turned around and fell asleep.

After a comfortable night's sleep, Chen Xiang opened his eyes and stretched his waist.

At this time, Liu Yanchang walked in with a bowl of Chaos, he put Chaos on the table, and said, "Agarwood, eat it while it's hot, and then we should go to your aunt's house."

"Hmm"

"Dad, can I ask you a question?" Chen Xiang asked, eating chaos.

"If there is anything that can't be said between our father and son, you just have to ask, and Dad will tell you what he knows."

"How much money do we have?"

"This, well, there is more than one hanging, less than two"

"So little?" Chen Xiang's brows furrowed.

Liu Yanchang: .....

One hanging is consistent, about 800 to 1,000 copper plates, which is about equal to one tael of silver.

The father and son stayed for one night, costing fifteen yuan, and Liu Yanchang bought two bowls of chaos in the morning and spent three yuan.

Roughly converted, if a penny is counted as three yuan, one penny is equivalent to two or three thousand, and less than two pennies is worth five thousand yuan.

With this amount of money, if you want to make money in Yangzhou, the richest city in the world, I am afraid it is not easy!

Without capital, even if Chen Xiang has a lot of knowledge and insight in later generations, it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice, and she can't do anything.

If you can't make money, you can't help the weak and the poor.

If you can't help the weak and the poor, you can't earn merit.

Without merit, you can't quickly cultivate immortals.

Chen Xiang frowned for a while.

Why don't you go directly to Sun Yuanqing and be a door-to-door son-in-law? If you can't be a son-in-law, you can be a righteous son!

Slippery,

After drinking the soup, Chen Xiang put down the bowl and pondered.

Thinking of this, he glanced at Liu Yanchang beside him, well, this father, don't do it!
