In the end, Liu Heng decided to go to Daye City to beg for a living in the future.

In fact, if you just want to support yourself, you don't have to worry, Liu Heng has many ways to go, and many of them can live a very nourishing life.

The fishing boat is gone, but it's not too difficult to build another one - from then on, he only needs to feed himself, even if he goes to the water for five or six days. With so much time left, he can even go to Mr. Huang every day to study with him.

In addition, he can also go to collect firewood and sell firewood, and Uncle Zhao, the head of the village, is like this, with a decent income - in fact, he is young and strong, and there are really not many things that he can do, and he will not starve anyway.

However, after much consideration, he decided to choose another path.

So, when he got up the next morning, he ran to Ohno Castle.

The first is renting a house.

He planned to settle down in Ono Castle now and then talk about anything else.

This is easy, there are two or three dental shops specializing in housing trading and leasing in the market, Liu Heng went in and said that he needed it, and those tooth people heard that he just wanted to rent a house, and asked for the rent to be as cheap as possible, so they were a little uninterested, but no matter how small the business was, it was also business, and in the end it was a slightly chubby tooth man who received him.

As soon as the two sides talked and asked, soon, the Naya man finalized three houses for Liu Heng, and then took Liu Heng to see them - all in the south of the city, where the houses were the cheapest.

However, on the way to see the house, the man repeatedly advocated how good this house was, and persuaded Liu Heng to "rather buy than rent", but Liu Heng just shook his head.

It's not that he doesn't want to buy it, it's just that most of the money he has saved over the years has been left to Chen Le, although he still has some left, and it's not impossible to borrow money if he really wants to use it, but after thinking about it again, he still decided to rent a house first - he actually doesn't have absolute confidence in the future.

After looking at the three houses, Liu Heng finally finalized one of the small courtyards located in the east of the south of the city.

The yard is not big, the courtyard wall is low, and there is a feeling of disrepair, but when you open the door and look carefully, the house is just mottled by wind and rain, in fact, the interior is intact, especially the wood used on the beam purlins is solid.

The tooth man patted his chest and said that this house was absolutely not leaky, and Liu Heng didn't care.

He has lived in countless leaky houses and has his own unique experience in observing whether the house is leaking.

He knew that after renting the house, he would have to change some thatch.

But it doesn't matter, it's just a day's work delay, and it won't cost a few dollars.

Everyone agreed on the rent of 110 copper coins per month, and they had to go back to make a note, and the gate of the courtyard was locked and they were about to leave, but in the narrow alley came a stout woman, who was carrying a large wooden bucket full of water in one hand, and walked without shaking.

So Liu Heng slowed down, saw her push open the courtyard door next door, and then left quickly.

The document was established, each holding a copy, and the lease period was agreed to be one year, and then Liu Heng paid three months' rent first and got the key in his hand.

Next, in the face of this new home, the decadence on him in the past many days disappeared all at once.

After a day's work, he went to the market to buy some freshly woven thatch, borrowed a ladder from a neighbor's house, and changed all the areas on the roof that were prone to rain leakage.

The yard is sprinkled and cleaned, and the room is dusted and molded.

On the third day, he borrowed an ox cart and asked Huang Dayuan for help, and Uncle Zhao, who happened to come to the city to sell firewood, also took a hand, and he had already moved his home - four simple small beds, one is not less.

Even the stove is done by the way, and I can cook my own food at any time.

Looking at this neat and tidy small courtyard, Huang Dayuan was a little envious.

He said, "Brother, I want to come and work with you in the future." ”

Liu Heng only smiled when he heard this.

When Uncle Zhao finished selling firewood, Liu Heng invited the two of them to have a simple lunch in the restaurant at the mouth of the alley, and then everyone took the ox cart back together.

In the afternoon, he ran to Onozawa and cast a few nets on the water's edge.

By evening, he had returned to his small courtyard in Ono Castle with a basket of fish on his back.

Before it was dark, he knocked on the door one by one from several neighbors, and one of them sent two fish, and everyone had a good impression of this new neighbor who had recently moved in.

Once again, he noticed the woman with considerable strength in the courtyard next door.

Her husband is a craftsman, named Cheng Hao, who specializes in walking in and out of the city, doing some work such as mending pots, sharpening scissors, sharpening knives, and grinding copper mirrors. As soon as Liu Heng finished delivering the fish and went back, he took the initiative to knock on the door and brought two handfuls of green vegetables, saying that they were grown in his yard and were worthless. Seeing that one of the wooden barrels in Liu Heng's yard was broken, he also took the initiative to ask for help to repair it.

At first, Liu Heng wanted to refuse politely, but seeing that he was very sincere, he no longer gave in, just thanked him vigorously.

It was only not long after he took the wooden barrel and went back, Liu Heng vaguely heard a quarrel next door, and a woman's rough voice scolded there: "Zhenri knows how to do good deeds, but who have you befriended? I don't need money to do anything, what do you and I eat if you don't want money? It's just a good person! Phew! What do you say to me about distant relatives and close neighbors, I only know that when our children were abducted, there were several people in those neighbors, and no one stretched out their hands......"

Her voice was not too loud, she was obviously a little cheeky, and she never raised her voice, but everyone lived on an adjacent wall, the courtyard wall was low, and the house was leaky, so it still reached Liu Heng's ears.

After hearing the first few sentences, Liu Heng only didn't hear them, but when he heard the last two sentences, he was a little stunned.

When I wanted to listen to it again, I didn't know what Cheng Hao said to his Hun family, and there was no sound over there.

That night, he slept a little unwell.

Rhubarb was lying in the yard, and this night, Liu Heng heard it walking around the yard many times, but he always refused to lie down and sleep.

So he got up early the next morning, and as soon as it was dawn, Liu Heng took the rhubarb and went out to take a turn in the alleys near and far. First, he wanted to familiarize himself with the surroundings, and secondly, he also took rhubarb to recognize the way.

When one person and one dog came back, it was just dawn, and Cheng Hao was already busy in the yard.

The courtyard wall is so low that you can easily talk through the walls on both sides.

Cheng Hao heard the sound of the door here, and saw that Liu Heng was back, so he took the wooden barrel and handed it over, and said with a smile: "It has been repaired, it doesn't matter if you are not bad for a few years!"

Liu Heng thanked him, took the wooden barrel, and first praised it, saying Brother Cheng, your craftsmanship is really good.

Then Cheng Hao laughed.

Last night, Liu Heng heard the tinkling of the next door and was busy for a long time, before going to bed, he had thought that when Cheng Hao returned the barrel today, he must give some money, but this morning he got up and walked around, he still felt that it was better not to give this money.

I gave it, but it was embarrassing.

Everyone laughed and talked a few words, that Cheng Hao's Hun family shouted to eat, Liu Heng also went to cook by himself, and when he had cooked and eaten, rhubarb had also eaten, looking at the yard next door, Cheng Hao's pick was gone, and he must have gone out.

Liu Heng simply cleaned himself up, then closed the courtyard door and walked slowly to the north of the city.

Starting today, he's ready to start looking for work.
