Jia Hu, a fan of wealth in the Red Chamber

As the Wanshou Festival is close to one day, the streets and alleys of the capital are decorated with lights and festoons. After Yuanfeng Commercial Bank took the lead in launching holiday promotions, many businesses followed suit. For a time, the prosperity of the capital city was even better than before.

Jia Hu and a few friends entered a newly opened leisure shop.The decoration of the store is different from the general decoration of Daqi, and it was done by Jia Hu referring to the leisure bars of later generations.

The entire glass door facing the street and swing-style wicker chairs, anyone who passes by the door will come in curiously.It is very difficult to think about whether the business is booming.

There are all kinds of tea in the store, white tea, green tea, black tea, oolong tea, and milk tea that people in Daqi have never heard of.There are also freshly squeezed juices and delicious snacks. At the same time, we accept customized birthday cakes.

On a table near the window, Gu Yan looked out curiously, and found that many passers-by were attracted by this sweet-smelling restaurant.

"Brother Hu's idea is good. It opened at this time, and it really attracted many people." Gu Yan was delighted.

He, Qin Lan, Yang Xu, and Su Yuan opened this small leisure shop together. He originally wanted to bring Jia Hu along with him, but was ruthlessly rejected by Wei Shizi. It was really unreasonable!

However, Jia Hu was the one who came up with the idea after all, and he ruthlessly demanded a fee for their ideas, so that everyone could fully understand once again what it means to be ruthless!

Yang Xu said from the side, "A few years ago, there were constant natural disasters everywhere, the treasury was empty, the sage was worried about the livelihood of the people, and the Longevity Festival was just a reunion dinner with the clan members, and it was not a big event. This year is different. I heard that The last time Prince Zhongsu went out to sea with the navy, there were pirates who robbed him, but he was beaten to death by King Zhongsu. He smashed down several pirate nests and got a lot of gold and silver, which not only filled the treasury, but also entered the saint's house. The private treasury coincides with the sage's fiftieth birthday, and there are envoys coming to Jin Dynasty, so of course it will be a big deal."

Years ago, Shen Tuqian rescued merchant ships from Daqi and surrounding countries from the pirates, and destroyed the pirates' lair. Because Shentuqian didn't hide the reason, the whole country knew it. Only then did the troops stationed along the coast of Daqi know about it. , It turns out that you can still play like this!Sailors have been dispatched to fight against pirates.

In the past few months, the surrounding areas of Daqi have become much more stable, and the people living along the coast have been telling each other.This way, it covered up Wei Jiang's extermination of the Japanese pirates before, and Jia Hu was relieved. If a large sum of money was dug out, wouldn't it be cutting his flesh?

Overnight, the soldiers who were kept at a distance by the people because of their evil spirit immediately grew taller. Many people would spontaneously send some rice, grains, fruits and vegetables to the nearby garrisons. For a while, the relationship between the soldiers and the people improved. Multiple times more than that.

Because doing these things is beneficial to Da Qi, and the benefits outweigh the disadvantages, the sage personally decreed that only [-]% of the money earned by the navy from combating pirates should be sent to the treasury, and the rest should be given to the navy for military use.As a result, the navy's enthusiasm for suppressing bandits was unprecedentedly high, and when the incident spread to the northern border, the garrison was also ready to move...

The shopkeeper personally brought several cups of milk tea and snacks to the owner.Five people took a sip one after another.

The Red Mansion version of milk tea is much more authentic than later generations, at least it is genuine.

Jia Hu was quite satisfied and nodded to Qin Lan.

Only then did Qin Lan say to the shopkeeper who was by the side, "Okay, you've done a good job, keep it up. Go do your work first, and let us relax for a while."

The shopkeeper was praised by the owner and recognized by Uncle Jia, not to mention how happy he was, he happily greeted the guests.

Su Yuan sighed, "This shopkeeper has done a good job, but compared with the managers of Yuanfeng Commercial Bank, it is far behind."

Several friends nodded one after another, agreeing with Su Yuan's words very much.

Speaking of this, Gu Yan went to his cousin's side: "Brother Hu, can you borrow a manager to pay me? Let him help the brothers train some useful ones!"

Yang Xu, "This is a good idea, what do you think, Brother Hu?"

Jia Hu clasped the two of them, "What do you think about every day? If I lend you people, who will do the work for me? Let the young master do it himself?"

Gu Yan frowned, and said aggrievedly: "I'm not in a hurry!"

"What's the rush! It's just such a small shop, the shopkeeper you picked is enough, but if you want to expand the business, it won't work."

Su Duo echoed: "Isn't it? So we are worrying, do you have any good suggestions?"

After getting along for a while, the group of teenagers gradually got used to discussing everything with Jia Hu.Although Jia Hu is a year younger than them all, she is much more thoughtful than them in dealing with people.

These people, in terms of family background, talent, and appearance, but they surrounded Jia Hu, acquiescing to Jia Hu's status in their small circle.It can be seen how powerful Jia Hu is in their minds.

Jia Hu is really kind to these little friends, seeing that they don't just want to be rich, and then think about it, when they grow up in the future, these people will be officials and generals, and they don't have any money on hand. , so he let go, "It's impossible to send someone over, but you can ask the servants or shopkeepers you trust to go to the firm to practice with the managers for a period of time, and understand their ways and methods of doing things. I can teach you a few useful ones."

Gu Yan clapped his hands together, "That's what I meant, I said Brother Hu would definitely agree."

On the fifth day of the fifth day of the Lunar New Year at Yinshi (around [-]:[-] a.m.), Jia Hu was woken up by bursts of firecrackers. When the first firecrackers sounded, Tian Xin and Tian Lan brought people in.

Jia Hu covered her head and moaned, "My God, is it necessary to be so early?"

Tian Lan directed the little girl to wash and wash Jia Hu, while Tian Xin personally took Jia Hu's official uniform and helped him put it on.Today is the sage's birthday, and it's the day. Although Jia Hu's job is only empty, of course he will participate in today's day.

Fortunately, Jia Hu has been insisting on waking up early at [-]:[-] Yinshi (about [-]:[-] a.m.) for morning exercises for more than ten years, and it doesn't matter if he wakes up early once in a while. After washing his face and brushing his teeth, he wakes up.

"Are my father and mother ready?"

"Master and wife have already got up. Just now, the servants learned from sister Chun Xing who is next to the wife that the wife knew that she could go to the private room of 'Tianwaitian' to watch the fun. She was so happy that she didn't sleep all night." Tianxin chattered, you must know, today their master has booked the private room on the third floor of "Tianwaitian". Those maids who rarely come once a year can go, but the big guy I'm so happy, I don't know how many good things I have said about the uncle at my wife's place.

Jia Hu sighed, for his mother, and for these beautiful, delicate, or cute girls. Think about it, Tian Xin and Tian Lan are only twelve or thirteen years old now. My biggest worry is whether I will be admitted to Peking University or Tsinghua University in the future.

Thinking of this, I didn't say much about the chattering behavior of the little girls, it's so pitiful.

After taking care of herself extremely quickly, Jia Hu went out with Qingfeng Qingyue.

Outside the door, Yun Shu took a few servants and waited to go out with Gu Shi. Although this is the capital city, it is not completely safe.

The four of them are young, and they have been trained by the captain of the guards in the mansion. It is no problem to deal with three or five strong men. They will follow them, and they can take care of them if something goes wrong.

If it weren't for them, Jia Hu wouldn't have worried that Mrs. Gu would go out with the children and girls in the house.

"There must be a lot of people outside today, you should be smart." Jia Tian instructed.

Yun Shu respectfully agreed.

Jia Hu turned his gaze to Yun Shu's side, only to see a six or seven-year-old boy looking at him expressionlessly.

Seeing the child's appearance, Jia Hu's heart moved, and he waved to him, "Come here."

The boy didn't move, Yun Shu stretched out his hand and poked the boy, and the boy seemed to come back to his senses, and walked in front of Jia Hu.

Jia Hu touched the boy's whole body, um, it was a little wretched, Qingfeng was taken aback, "My lord, we don't know where this guy came from, and he dirty your hands carefully."

When the child heard this, he stared at Qingfeng, his eyes, like a wolf cub, startled Qingfeng, "I'm not dirty!" the boy who had been silent all this time said, his voice was clear and childlike. Soft and glutinous.

Yun Shu broke out in a cold sweat, and hurried forward to block the child, explaining: "I met this child on the street a while ago, he seems to have been kidnapped by a kidnapper, he doesn't look like he came out of a poor family Yes, so I went ahead and bought him. He has been following the little one for the past few days, and he learned the rules pretty well, so the little one brought him here."

Jia Hu nodded, seeing that there was still some time, he knelt down and asked him, "Do you still remember who you are?"

A dark light flashed in the child's eyes, as if there was hatred, but he didn't speak, and shook his head after a long time, "I don't remember."

Jia Hu immediately understood that this kid was also a precocious one, and that his abduction might have something else to do with it.

He didn't bother with this question anymore, and continued to ask him, "I think you have a good foundation, would you like to learn martial arts from a master? Don't worry, the master I found for you is extremely powerful and has a high status. Follow him, You will definitely be able to learn something, or, your wish will come true."

The master Jia Hu mentioned was his second master, Shen Xuan.Although he had worshiped Shen Xuan as his teacher that day, his situation was special. In addition to the kung fu that he had learned by himself, he had learned the kung fu taught by others, but the effect was not great. Shen Xuan always felt regretful for this, and It is impossible for him to inherit Shen Xuan's Marquis of Wu'an Mansion.

These days, Jia Hu has been paying attention to suitable children, thinking of finding another suitable apprentice for his second master. He is such a good apprentice who is anxious about what the master is anxious about. Jia Hu is almost moved to tears. up.

"Are you serious?" The boy's big dark eyes sparkled.

"Of course! I always keep my word. If you don't believe me, ask Yun Shu."

The boy nodded without thinking, "I am willing to learn martial arts! Also, I don't have a name."

Jia Hu understood what he meant. This child was extremely disappointed with his original family, and he didn't want to go back. If he grows up and has the ability in the future, maybe he will come back to take revenge!

Jia Hu: "Okay, then I'll call you Ah Mo, and after this period of time, I'll take you to the master's place, but it's up to you to become a formal disciple or a registered disciple."

Ah Mo nodded, his eyes were frighteningly bright.
