The Big Landlord

Tang Shi clenched his fists with both hands, and gently put them on Zhao Jin's waist. As Zhao Jin slowly approached, his eyelashes trembled more violently. Zhao Jin couldn't help but feel soft-hearted when he saw it.

Forget it, let's not scare the little tiger.

Tang Shi was holding his breath, waiting for the first time in his two lives, but this guy gave up halfway!Is there such a tantalizing thing?Is it purely to let him fail the exam in the afternoon?

"I'm going to change clothes." Zhao Jin said as he wanted to reach out and hug him down his legs, but Tang Shi suddenly wrapped his arms around his neck.

"Zhao Jin, I forgot to tell you that there is a girl in the city who is very nice, good-looking, and has a good personality. The most important thing is that she is about the same age as me. I..." The more he said, Zhao Jin's face became darker. Shen.

Zhao Jin suddenly stretched out his hand to pinch his chin, and his eyes fell on his mouth that kept saying these irritating words. He really laughed angrily, "Tang Shi, I shouldn't be soft-hearted to you."

Tang shi shut up.

Zhao Jin stared at him with deep eyes, raised his little chin slightly, and bowed his head to kiss him.

When their lips touched, Tang Shi's eyes widened suddenly, and his whole body froze there. Zhao Jin hugged his waist and chuckled, and Tang Shi's entire face burned like a fire.

The lips were warm and cool, but it was this warmth that directly burned into the hearts of the two of them.

After all, Zhao Jin restrained himself. He just touched him lightly, and then separated. Then, while Tang Shi was in a daze, he picked him up and put him on a chair beside him, and he quickly walked into the back room.

Tang Shi came back to his senses and smacked his lips. Why did he feel that Zhao Jin seemed to be running away just now?

When the two came to Tang's house, Gao just brought out the last dish from the kitchen.

Tang Qing was a little surprised when he saw Zhao Jin, and hurriedly asked Tang Nian to bring the wine, but Zhao Jin reluctantly refused, "I'm really sorry, Uncle Tang, I have business to do in the afternoon, and I'll have a few drinks with you in the evening."

"Okay, okay." Tang Qing nodded.

Because Tang Shi and Li Shao had to take the exam in the afternoon, there was not much talk at the dinner table. After eating, Tang Shi and Li Shao went back to the room to rest.

The two-day county examination passed quickly. Because of the examination, Tang Shi hadn't had a good time with Zhao Jin yet.After the last exam on the second day, he accompanied Li Shao back home and ran to the next door.

Seeing him, Hong Zhong said, "Young Master Tang, you left in a hurry, and I just had time to let me tell you."

"He's gone?" Tang Shi suddenly felt a suffocating feeling in his heart, as if he was about to eat the food on the plate, but suddenly realized that he had woken up from a dream.

"So, what did he do when he came back?" He calmed down and asked with a smile on his face.

Hong Zhong shook his head, "It should be an official business, the young master didn't tell me clearly."

Tang Shi was silent for a moment, then nodded to him, and was about to leave, but Hong Zhong stopped him again.

"Young master, there are still two days until the flower viewing party. Brother Geng has already asked me if you are prepared?"

"Yes, you come with me."

In the Tang Dynasty, the yard was large enough and many flowers were planted. Now it is autumn, and chrysanthemums are naturally indispensable.When Hong Zhong looked over, he felt that his eyes were full of purples and reds, and his face was full of fragrance.

Of course the flowers grown by Tang Shi are not bad, Hong Zhong couldn't help asking: "There are so many flowers, which one do you plan to choose, young master?"

Tang Shi smiled, "Not these."

Hong Zhong followed him to the side room of the room, and was surprised to find that Tang Shi had used it as a flower room. Although there were not many flowers, each pot was enough to catch people's attention.

"Little son, what kind of flower is this? Why have I never seen it before?"

"It's a kind of Begonia, I call it Fuchsia." Tang Shi looked at them with tender eyes.

"Fuchsia? It's very appropriate!" Even though Hong Zhong didn't know flowers, he was attracted by these flowers of the same type but different colors.

Tang Shi picked up a pot, "You send this to Geng Cailiang."

Hong Zhong took it carefully, and understood why Tang Shi chose this pot.The color of this potted flower is the most festive and extravagant. The flower tube is cylindrical red, and the tip is slender and folded upwards, like a flying eaves, vivid and flexible; the lower petals are purple-red, and the petals are gathered in an oval shape. The whole pattern is very beautiful.

"Son, this is amazing."

Tang Shi nodded, "Take it."

The next day, the academy was suspended for a day, and Tang shi was lying on a rattan chair in the yard with a book in his hands.

"Little brother, are you there?" Tangyue's voice came from outside the door.

Tang Shi sat up, "Sister, come in."

Tangyue entered the courtyard, her eyes were unconsciously attracted by the flowers in the courtyard, beautiful things always get more attention.

"Sister, what do you need from me?"

Tangyue sat down in front of him, "Little brother, the flowers you grow are really beautiful."

Tang shi just smiled.

Embarrassment appeared on Tangyue's beautiful face, but she still insisted and asked: "Little brother, you have to prepare for the county exam a few days ago, so I don't want to disturb you. Today, I want to ask you how the flower field is doing while school is suspended. ?”

Tang Shi looked at her with amusement, "Sister, I was about to talk to you about this. You also know that I have a lot of studies, and my parents and two brothers and sisters-in-law have other things to do, so I just How about leaving it to you to sell flowers in the future?"

Tangyue's eyes lit up, and a smile appeared on her face. Let's not say that cosmetic dealers need flowers, but nobles love flowers. They often put many beautiful flowers at parties, but people who know how to grow flowers are really rare. There are many, and few people can breed on a large scale, so the supply of flowers has always been in short supply.She has seen the flowers raised by the younger brother. Although the flower type is relatively common, the quality of the color, fragrance and other aspects are all the best she has ever seen. She is not afraid that they will not be sold. The profit of ten acres of flower land is very considerable. .

"How is the price determined?"

Tang Shi replied: "I will take the time to write down the price of each flower, and you can set the price according to the above."

Tang Yue nodded repeatedly.

"I still need to read books, sister, do you have other things to do?"

Tangyue got what she wanted, so she stood up and said softly, "Then I won't bother you little brother."

It's not that Tang Shi didn't know what Tangyue was thinking, but some people didn't shed tears when they saw the coffin. He gave Tangyue a chance. If she didn't grasp it well, then she couldn't blame herself for being ruthless.

Back at the academy on the third day, Tang Shi learned that the academy had removed Tang Yi.This matter was widely spread in Nanlin Academy and even the whole county.Tang Yi is a student of Nanlin Academy, and Nanlin Academy is really dishonored when something like this happens.

When Ye Fuzi gave them lectures, he always put on a face. At the end, he specially taught the students to be honest and honest.

On the way to school, he met the school bully and those two followers again.Tang shi woke them up after the county examination, but no matter what, Tang shi left an indelible shadow in their hearts.

No, when they saw Tang shi, the two immediately lowered their heads and shrank behind the school bully. Since that time, the school bully also knew that Tang shi was not easy to mess with, so he pretended not to see Tang shi.

The days have returned to calm.

Soon, in early October, the results of the county examination came out.As expected, Wei Cong won No.1 in the county examination, Tang Shi was No.2, and Li Shao failed.

No one would be surprised to say that Wei Cong won No.1, but No.2 was taken away by an unknown person, which is really surprising!

Master Ye was very pleased. Tang Shi had only entered school for two months, and he had achieved such a good result in the first county examination. His aptitude was really excellent.However, he still told Tang Shi not to be proud, and there were government and hospital exams, which were more difficult.

Along with the good news of the county examination, the fuchsia he raised had, as expected, become the oiran of Nanfeng County, and had been sent to Qingping Mansion by Geng Cailiang.

Geng Cailiang became famous again.One may have been an accident, but it probably wouldn't have been an accident to have bred such an eye-opening variety twice.People guessed that Geng Cailiang must have cultivated a talented gardener, and they all asked who this mysterious gardener was, and wanted to meet him and ask for such beautiful flowers.

After Hong Zhong heard about it, he asked Tang Shi for his opinion. Tang Shi shook his rattan chair and shook his head, "Don't reveal anything about me for now."

Hong Zhong expressed his understanding.

"By the way, it's been a few months? Why hasn't your young master written any more letters?" In the past, there were at least two letters a month.

"It should be sent to the south to investigate corrupt officials."

Tang Shi stopped talking, and his eyes fell on the swaying chrysanthemums in the yard.

Seeing this, Hong Zhong left silently.The young master must have encountered some difficulties, otherwise it is impossible that there will be no news.

In late October, Hong Zhong brought another 500 taels of silver to Tang Shi, saying that the potted flower was taken by a nobleman in the palace and was left in the palace.

The news spread from the capital, and everyone thought that the flowers that could be favored by the nobles must be extraordinary, and they all approached Geng Cailiang to buy flowers from him.

Tang Shi gave Hong Zhong the remaining five pots of fuchsias with different colors. Rare things are more expensive. There are so many people who want them, but these five pots are the only ones to spend. Higher wins.

The reward from Kyoto to Tang Shi was 500 taels, so the price of each pot should naturally not be lower than 500 taels. 500 taels is an astronomical figure in the eyes of ordinary people, but in the eyes of those wealthy businessmen, this price is not as good as reputation at all.To get a pot of flowers that are the same as the nobleman's, that's a matter of face for Bel!

In the end, the biggest beneficiary was Tang shi.The five potted flowers were sold for a total of 500 taels, plus the 500 taels from the capital, and some money from selling flowers before, Tang Shi now has nearly 5000 taels of silver.In his previous life, he would be considered a millionaire.

Tang Shi had experienced great wealth in his previous life, so he was not shocked by the 500 taels, but the Tang family was different. If they took out so much money at once, the Tang family would not be shocked.

Therefore, Tang Shi didn't intend to tell the Tang family, and only gave 500 taels to Father Tang, asking Tang Nian and the others to buy land again, and quietly gave Liu 100 taels as private house money.He originally wanted to give more, but even the 100 taels shocked Liu Shi a lot.However, the Tang family was not surprised when they were frightened.

Therefore, when Tang Shi took out another 100 taels to Fang's as the capital for opening the cosmetic powder shop, the Tang family had already calmed down.But Tang Ji resolutely refused, saying that the older brother could not take the younger brother's money. Tang Shi had no choice but to say that it was a loan, and he could just pay it back when the powder shop made money.

Fang was also very touched, thinking that her son could go to school, her daughter was brought up better, and she could open a makeup shop, all thanks to Tang Shi's help.Although it is said that they are a family, but the brothers still know how to settle accounts, and the uncle's help to them may not be clear for the rest of their lives.

"Brother, sister-in-law, second brother, what have you thought about doing?"

Tang Nian said distressedly: "Little brother, I don't know much except farming."

Tang Shi asked him: "Then elder brother, do you want to learn a craft in the past?"

Tang Nian originally wanted to talk about what to do with the family where he went to learn crafts, but when he thought that now the family has money and a house, and the land has been rented out to others, it seems that he really doesn't need himself.

"Then what craft should my second brother and I learn?"

Tang Shi smiled, "Eldest brother and second brother, you don't have to worry, think slowly, find slowly, the most important thing is that you like it."

Things were developing on the track Tang shi had preset. The only thing that made Tang shi feel uncertain was Zhao Jin, who had never heard from him.

The days passed slowly like this, and Tang Shi gradually grew up.
