At about the same time as yesterday, there was another spring rain of about the same size in Chang'an City, and the rain hit the thick umbrella surface of the big black umbrella and made a muffled sound, like water droplets falling into the dust. Not a drop of rain could seep through the umbrella surface, and the area of the big black umbrella seemed to be large enough to shelter the entire polo team, but for some reason, Ning Que and Sang Sang, who were standing under the black umbrella, still felt that they were drenched in cold, and their bodies were cold and about to turn into ice sculptures.

"Find a place to hide from the rain. He said in a hoarse voice, then remembered the strange incident on the street yesterday, and added: "Don't go to Suzaku Street." ”

So the master and servant walked aimlessly along the green trees on the side of the street for a distance, and then stood under the quiet eaves of a side street in the north of Chang'an, put away the black umbrella, and then the two of them were silent for a long time, looking at the densely woven rain in front of them and the little splash not far in front of the boots, completely speechless.

"I am a dignified Tang Empire......" At this time, Ning Que's tone when he said the six words of the Tang Empire did not have his usual confidence and pride, but with a little resentment, "...... It's really shameful that you still rely on education to earn money, even if you don't cover room and board, can't the fees be cheaper? And you must know that I saved your princess, just call someone to pass on a word? Not to mention rewarding us with 1,8200 taels of children, it's not atmospheric at all!"

Compared with the empty talk about the country's major policies and the popularity of the nobles, Sang Sang was obviously more concerned about those specific things, she frowned, looked at the splash on the bluestone slab with a low face, and counted with her fingers: "The guest house will definitely not work for more than a month, we don't have so much money, if the young master insists on taking the academy exam, then even if we go to the temple, it is meaningless, because the total of less than two hundred taels of silver, and we have to spend it outside every day, so our problem now is not how to save money, but how to make money." ”

"How do you earn it?" the young man sighed with an umbrella as a cane, "This is a problem. ”

The spring rain was pouring down, and the master and servant were sheltering from the rain on the side of the street, while thinking sadly about their livelihood.

Hunting is naturally not good, Hugh said that selling prey can earn the terrible thirty taels of silver a month, the key problem is that there is no place to hunt near Chang'an City. Ning Que realized this when he was in Weicheng, the mountains and forests around Chang'an belonged to the emperor's old man, and the prey in the mountains was naturally also the emperor's old man, if he scavenged the prey in the mountains and forests within two months, maybe he would fall into a terrible charge of stealing the royal garden.

Sang Sang raised his little face and said timidly: "Female red is not good, I carefully looked at the stalls on the street that night, the craftsmanship in Chang'an City is much better than mine, there are many styles I haven't seen, and I can't understand those stitches." ”

Ning Que looked at the rain in front of him, and said with emotion: "It's a pity that there are no horse thieves and no thieves around Chang'an City, otherwise how can you take advantage of enough silver to kill a few nests, speaking of which, when I first arrived in Weicheng, I was too young to do things, and I was too stupid to do things, and all the money I robbed by killing horse thieves was honestly paid to the public, and I didn't know how to leave some private house." Later, the main purpose of killing the horse thief and collecting firewood tomorrow was to kill the horse thief on the other side of the lake and become a fucking poor ghost. ”

Sang Sang said in a soft voice: "I said at the time that you killed too hard, and as a result, the horse thieves on the other side of the Sobi Lake sent people to keep an eye on Weicheng all day long, as long as they found that you led the team into the grassland, they immediately packed up the gold and silver and fled. ”

"I was young and didn't have a lot of experience. ”

Ning Que said embarrassedly, and suddenly he raised his eyebrows and said: "How about the gang? I don't want to borrow money from Xiaohezi directly, but how about mixing into the gang through his connections, and then striving to get on the throne within ten days and collect black money?"

"You said that the academy also assesses the morality of students, and if you let the academy know that you are bullying and good by gangs, maybe they will directly remove you, and then you don't need to earn this black money. Sangsang reminded.

Ning Que hated that his little maid always seemed clumsy and lazy when she needed to show her memory, and when she didn't need to show her memory, she always looked smart and good at remembering like a genius child, and he said angrily: "Then what do you say? If you want to be able to make money and not let the academy know, then you can only be a killer!"

"The question is, where is the killer organization? I can't meet someone in black on Chang'an Street and just come up and ask with a shy face: "Thank you, I want to know where the most powerful killer organization in our Tang Empire is going, please show me the way?"

Sang Sang was not afraid of his old shame and anger, and said seriously: "Young master, I know you feel very ashamed, but we have to think of a way to make money, otherwise we might as well go back to Weicheng." ”

"I said I couldn't be a person, and I wouldn't go back to death. Ning Que said hatefully.

In Minshan, Weicheng, and in the grassland, no matter what kind of difficult and poor situation they encountered, he and Sangsang could survive it, and now they have arrived in the prosperous and prosperous Chang'an City, survival has become a very strict problem for them.

Ning Que's eyes suddenly lit up and said, "There is! We sell preserved eggs! No, it should be said that it is Songhua eggs!"

Sang Sang frowned and repeated: "Preserved eggs?"

He smiled slightly and said, "There is no doubt that the preserved eggs I made are the best in the whole Tang Dynasty." ”

Sang Sang looked at him and said seriously: "But the people in Weicheng don't like to eat, and I don't like to eat either, it's too bitter." ”

Ning Que smiled, looked at the pedestrian in the rain, and pretended to be calm and said, "Actually, I'm telling a joke." ”

Sang Sang looked up at his jaw, hesitated for a long time and then mustered up the courage to say: "Young master, in fact, there is a very simple way to make money, that is, I don't know if you are willing or not. ”

Ning Que turned his head, and instantly felt that the little black face of the little maid had become more pleasing and beautiful than ever, and said gently: "Now and now, as long as you can make money, where will there be anything you don't want to do." ”

Sang Sang replied: "Young master, your handwriting is so good, let's sell words." ”

Ning Que's expression froze, looked at her and said very seriously: "Sangsang, you have become ugly." ”

"Huh?" Sangsang was confused.

Ning Que was annoyed and said: "What is it called selling calligraphy? That is called calligraphy! Do you understand calligraphy? How can you sell the things of a scholar? I would rather sell this thing than sell it!"

Sang Sang shouted angrily: "Young master, you are not a scholar, you are just a woodcutter, don't you often say that you are better at writing than killing?

Ning Que retorted weakly without confidence: "It's not called writing, it's called calligraphy." ”

He looked down at his rain-soaked boots, at the words he had just written with a black umbrella dripping rainwater at his feet, and knew that his life had once again been lost to the little maid.

The dashing handwriting written by the rain is as follows: Do not suffer from poverty, but have a strong maid in the family.
