As soon as Bao asked about it, Zhou Qing immediately became angry like a hornet's nest that had been stabbed. He pointed at him and said angrily: "What the hell are you, you dare to talk to me like this, but you are just helping out on errands. Just running dogs."

Hearing him scolding himself like this, the smile on Bao Dingwen's face remained the same, and even deepened a little bit, he slightly raised the corners of his lips, and said word by word: "Master Zhou, even if I'm just a running dog, That's just a running dog hired by Mr. Zhou, and has nothing to do with you, Young Master Zhou, I hope Young Master Zhou can understand this!"

Zhou Qing didn't expect that he would be able to continue like this when he scolded him like this, and he didn't know how to refute him all the time.

Bao Wenwen didn't seem to see his shock, and continued: "Master Zhou personally agreed to this deal, but now Mr. Zhou disagrees, so I might bother Mr. Zhou and ask him, Who am I supposed to listen to?"

Hearing what Bao Inquired said, Zhou Qing blushed all of a sudden, and said with a hint of guilt mixed with frustration: "How dare you use my uncle to oppress me."

"I don't dare, just to avoid mistakes and to verify carefully. After all, in our business, the most important thing is to serve the employer well, and the employer's wishes are the first purpose of our service." Bao asked with a kind smile on his face. , the words he said were also extremely pleasant, but they stopped in Zhou Qing's ears, but they were not so beautiful.

This errand was originally begged by his mother for him so that he could show his face in front of his uncle. If he can't even handle such trivial matters, not only will he be blamed by his mother when he goes back, but he will also make his own mother feel embarrassed. The uncle who didn't like him looked down on him even more.

Zhou Qing was a little flustered in his heart, but he refused to show it on the face. He looked at the smiling Bao inquired in front of him. He had always heard that he was a master of eloquence, but he had seen it today.

"How about it, Mr. Zhou, do you need me to ask Master Zhou?" Bao inquired, looking at the panic flashing in his eyes, and asked in a friendly voice.

Zhou Qingsheng was afraid that he would ask his uncle, but he refused to show weakness on his face. He turned his head and looked at Chen Xing and Gu Lang who were standing next to him. He saw that Chen Xing was still angry, but the white-faced scholar was calm. Looking at him, as if he was some kind of clown, he immediately became more angry, pointed at him and asked, "Do you still want to rent it? If you don't rent it, forget it."

Looking at his bluffing appearance, Gu Lang raised a small arc on his lips, and said softly: "It's up to you, Young Master Zhou. If you don't want to rent it to us, we naturally can't rent it."

Zhou Qing was choked by Gu Lang's understatement, and suddenly didn't know how to answer. Who knew that the white-faced scholar in front of him seemed to be unreasonable, and continued:

"If you don't want to rent it to us, I don't know if the young master can return the deposit to us. After all, it was agreed in advance, and the deposit is also included in the rent. Now that the rent cannot be paid, it is reasonable that the young master should return it."

Zhou Qing was stunned, and asked reflexively, "What deposit?"

The bag next to him answered the call in a timely manner, and said to him carefully: "According to Master Zhou's request, tenants who want to rent must first pay five taels of silver to Master Zhou when they decide to rent, which is considered a good deposit." , is also counted in the future rent.

When I handed over the deposit to Mr. Zhou, Mr. Zhou gave me a receipt. Now that you don’t want to rent, my lord, do you think I should ask Mr. Zhou for the deposit?Or how? "

After listening to Bao asked about the ins and outs of the down payment, Zhou Qing cursed secretly, that old man actually did this trick, and swallowed so much money before renting the shop.

But even if Zhou Qing scolded him in his heart, he didn't dare to let this bag ask his uncle. After all, if his uncle found out, he would definitely not be able to please him.If he doesn't take out the money, it's not a good thing to inquire about, and he will definitely not get what he wants, and he will definitely bring this matter to his uncle, and then his uncle will blame him for not doing things well.But if he was asked to use the money to subsidize it, he would be very heartbroken, but he couldn't bear to say that he wanted to rent it now.

Just when Zhou Qing was thinking about it and couldn't think of a perfect solution, and didn't know what to do, the little boy continued to push forward: "I don't know how the young master is thinking?"

Zhou Qing raised his eyes and looked at him angrily, disgusted with this scholar who didn't play cards according to common sense.

Gu Lang looked at him looking like he was about to jump over the wall, the smile on his lips became more and more obvious.

Just when the two sides were at a stalemate and Zhou Qing started to get irritable, the official who had been sitting beside him without saying a word stood up all of a sudden, and slapped it on the table with a 'slap', looking at the people who looked at him because of his actions. A few people said angrily: "You guys, are you still signing this contract?"

After yelling, the officer looked at Zhou Qing with a fierce look in his eyes, and said angrily: "Zhou Qing, what are you doing here, are you here to amuse your grandfather and me? I have written all the contracts for you. Yes, you can sign the contract after taking a look at the land deed. You have been messing around here for a long time, what on earth do you want to do? Ah, if you don’t give me an explanation, I will ask your mother for clarification!”

Zhou Qing, who was already guilty, was yelled at by the official, and immediately became weak, and quickly defended: "I'm here to sign the contract! What else can I do?"

Hearing what Zhou Qing said, the official was even angrier. He took out the contract he wrote in the morning with a 'snap', put it in front of Zhou Qing, and said fiercely: "In that case, can you still sign it now?" signed?"

"Sign, I'll sign, of course I will." Zhou Qing, who was bullying and afraid of hard work, immediately shrugged a little after being treated so fiercely by him.

After the official yelled at Zhou Qing, when he looked at Chen Xing again, his expression softened all of a sudden, and his tone became lighter, "Do you still want to sign?"

Chen Xing looked at Zhou Qing, who was so arrogant just now and now timid, with a bit of hesitation on his face. He felt that Gu Lang had been angered for nothing just now, and signing the contract himself was like betraying him.

Gu Lang next to him seemed to understand his worries, patted the back of his hand lightly, and comforted him in a gentle voice: "People don't care about dogs."

"Who the hell are you calling a dog?" Zhou Qing exploded after hearing that.

However, Gu Lang glanced at him indifferently and did not answer.

Zhou Qing was even angrier, but at this moment the official slapped him on the head, interrupting his anger, "Are you still signing?"

"Sign, I'll sign." Zhou Qing, who didn't know how to offend the official, immediately fell back after being slapped, looking rather pitiful.

The officer looked at him and snorted disdainfully, then took out the contract and put it in front of him, and said arrogantly: "Since you want to sign, please hurry up. Show me the land deed." , don’t ink, and don’t waste time.”

"Hey, good."

Facing the coercion of the official, Zhou Qing hastily opened the box, took out the title deed from the inside and gave it to the official.

Gu Lang watched quietly from the side, and after seeing the whole picture of the land deed, the sneer on the corner of his mouth deepened, and it was exactly as he thought.

The official took the land deed and looked at it again and again. He seemed to be a little hesitant. He turned his head to look at the dejected Zhou Qing next to him.

The official sent the key things on the land deed to the two original deeds, then asked the two masters to sign and pledge, and finally asked them to pay the rent in front of him. Today, the business is considered over.

That Zhou Qing took the rent and the contract from the official errand, and after paying a labor fee, he ran away as if flying.

It wasn't until he left the yamen and was blown by the cold wind outside that he suddenly became sober. He was obviously going to rent out the shop and ask for some benefits by the way.How come in the end, not only did he not reap the benefits, but he made himself look like the one who wanted to rent a shop?

Zhou Qing glanced angrily at the yamen plaque behind him, and felt that he should have been tricked by the gang just now, and he must talk to his uncle properly when he goes back.

Inside the Yamen.

Although the process was not very good, Chen Xing was very happy to finally get the contract.

Chen Xing first gave the officials and Bao Inquiry the rewards they deserved, and because they spoke for him just now, he gave them a little more.Then he asked Bao and explained that he still needed some craftsmen to decorate the shop, and asked him to help introduce them.

Bao inquired that he had a good impression of this polite little brother, and just now he saw that the official was polite to him, and he was also guessing about his background in his heart.So after hearing his request, I carefully screened it in my mind, and quickly selected the right candidate.

After making up his mind, Bao Inquired turned to look at Chen Xing next to him, and under his expectant eyes, said directly: "I have a suitable carpenter here, and the price is reasonable. I just don't know when the young master wants to do it. This kind of thing still needs to be connected in the past, otherwise I am afraid that what will be made at that time will not meet the young master's wishes."

Upon hearing this, Chen Xing immediately asked, "Can we go there now?" He thought about finishing the project as soon as possible and opening the business sooner.

Bao inquired that he was not surprised that he was going to go there immediately, so he nodded and prepared to take them there.

Chen Xing took the manuscript paper he drew yesterday, said goodbye to the official, and left with Gu Lang following Bao inquiring.

Looking at Bao inquiring who was leading the way, Chen Xing waited for a while, then turned his head to look at Gu Lang with a calm face, and said sincerely, "I'm sorry."

Gu Lang turned his head to look at him, his eyes were full of doubts, he didn't understand why Chen Xing, who was so good-looking, wanted to apologize to him.

Chen Xing looked at Gu Lang's clear eyes, and said a little embarrassedly: "If I hadn't rented this shop, you wouldn't have been humiliated by that person just now."

Although in the end he didn't get what the gangster wanted, Chen Xing still felt a little sorry for Gu Lang.

Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing whose face was full of self-blame, reached out and touched his head, and comforted him in a gentle voice: "It's just him making trouble for no reason. No one thought of such a thing, it's not your fault. Even renting a shop It’s not us, that person will still be embarrassed, we just happened to meet. Besides, I don’t really care, because he didn’t take advantage of it, and he might be punished when he goes back.”

Chen Xing looked up at him, a little curious about what he meant, but Gu Lang didn't intend to speak anymore after saying this, so he didn't ask any more questions.

After being comforted by Gu Lang, Chen Xing's mood improved a lot. He looked up at the man in front of him, nodded heavily, and responded softly, "En."

Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing who had regained some vitality, and laughed too.

Afterwards, Chen Xing followed Bao Inquiry to find the craftsman who was decorating, and told him about the pavement that needs to be renovated and how to decorate it. The craftsman took Chen Xing's deposit and agreed to start work the next day.

When he came out from the craftsman, Chen Xing looked at the bag that had brought them all the way to inquire, and made his last request, "My shop will open in the future, and I still need some helpers. I wonder if there is anything suitable for you?"

When Bao asked what he said, he didn't agree to come down to help him find someone. Instead, he asked him who he needed. After hearing Chen Xing's request, he pondered for a while before saying, "How many people do I have?" Those who agree with the request, if you are free, you might as well come to my house tomorrow to have a look, if you are suitable, you can keep it, if not, I will introduce another one for you."

Hearing what Bao Inquired said, Chen Xing nodded hurriedly. He felt that it was very convenient to have Bao Inquired, and everything could be settled by just asking him a few words.

After Chen Xing and Bao Da heard the details, they agreed to meet those who would accept employment the next day before the craftsmen came to decorate the shop, and then gave Bao Da a sum of employment money, they parted ways.

On the way back, Chen Xing still felt a little embarrassed when he thought about all that he had experienced today, "Thanks to Bao Inquiring today, otherwise it would be very troublesome. I have now seen how capable Bao Inquiry is. I'm afraid he won't be able to help us in such a short period of time, this is really a model of 360 lines, the number one scholar in every line!"

Seeing Chen Xing's happy face, Gu Lang nodded slightly, agreeing with his words.

Chen Xing walked down the street with Gu Lang, looked at the crowds coming and going, finally pulled Gu Lang's sleeve happily, and said softly: "Okay, although today is not very smooth, but I finally finished everything Let’s go back to rest early, by the way, what do you want to eat today, let’s go to the vegetable market first, and then go home after buying vegetables.”

Gu Lang looked at the happy Chen Xing, nodded with a smile, and the two went to the vegetable market together.

On the other side, Zhou Qing thought about what happened today, and the more he thought about it, the more something went wrong, and finally he went home full of anger.

As soon as he entered the door, Zhou Qing saw his mother sitting in the hall eating melon seeds. Seeing that he came back, she raised her eyelids, spit out the melon seeds in her mouth, and said unhurriedly: "I'm back, today's How are things going?"

Facing his old mother, Zhou Qing immediately calmed down, drooping his shoulders, and said reluctantly: "The signing is over."

His mother looked at him and said with disgust: "Since everything is done, go tell your uncle and let him know that you have done things beautifully."

Thinking of the grievances he received outside today, Zhou Qing, who is usually very cowardly in front of his mother, finally said unconvinced, "Mother, am I your own son? You've been pissed off even if you didn't see me outside." , why do you still let me please uncle."

His mother threw away the melon seeds in her hand, looked at him with disgust, and said impatiently: "No one can make you angry, I guess you wanted to get cheap, but in the end it didn't work out, and you were taught a lesson instead. I wish you weren't my own, so that I can worry less. It's a pity, I just gave birth to you, a prodigal bastard."

Zhou Qing was poked in the sore spot by his mother, and he didn't dare to utter a word when she heard her scolding him there, but endured it silently.

After Zhou's mother finished counting, she glanced up and down at her incompetent son, and finally said: "By the way, how much should the rent be? You can give your uncle exactly what you want. Don't be greedy, or I will wait for you." Come back carefully, I will beat you!"

Zhou Qing was a little guilty by his mother's words, but he still bite the bullet and said: "I won't, don't you trust me?"

Zhou's mother looked at him and sneered, her face was full of disdain, "You crawled out of my stomach, I don't know what kind of virtue you are. Well, listen to your mother, your uncle will definitely have you in the future." For the benefit, you change your clothes before going to see your uncle."

"Yes."

Originally wanted to come back to ask for favors, but in the end he was suffocated again. Zhou Qing reluctantly agreed, and went back to his room to change clothes. He gradually complained about the two tenants today. He thought that if it wasn't for them, he wouldn't have suffered such grievances, and next time he had a chance, he would definitely get it back twice as much.

With such a mood, Zhou Qing changed his clothes and went out to find the most promising uncle in their family under his mother's watchful eyes.

On the other side, Chen Xing felt that Gu Lang had suffered a lot of grievances today because of his contract, so he specially cooked a table of delicious dishes for him to appease his hurt feelings.

Although Gu Lang didn't feel that he had been wronged, his concern for Chen Xing was quite useful, so after seeing a table full of his favorite dishes, he still involuntarily raised the corners of his lips, and his expression was more than usual. A little more gentle.

After serving all the dishes on the table, Chen Xing finally took out an extraordinarily beautiful bottle, and under the doubtful eyes of Gu Lang and the others, proudly introduced: "This is the fruit wine I brewed myself!"

Gu Lang looked up at Chen Xing's proud and ambitious expression, thinking of his appearance after he was drunk last time, he still couldn't help asking, "Did you drink this wine?"

Hearing Gu Lang's question, Chen Xing smiled, patted his chest, and said confidently: "Of course, I brewed the wine myself, I can guarantee that this time I will never be as drunk as last time .”

After Chen Xing said this with great pride, he picked up the wine bottle and filled the glasses in front of the three of them. Then he raised the glasses and said happily to them, "Come on, let's toast."

Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing's happy face, although he was dubious about his saying that he would not get drunk, he clinked glasses with him as he wished.

After drinking a glass of wine, Qiu Jiu's eyes lit up immediately, he gave Chen Xing a thumbs up, and praised: "It's delicious!"

Chen Xing became more and more complacent, looked at him and said, "Isn't it? The wine I brewed myself has a reason why it doesn't taste good."

After finishing speaking, Chen Xing poured another cup for himself while serving Qiu Jiuman.

Seeing Chen Xing's bold and unrestrained behavior, Gu Lang frowned, always having a bad feeling.

Half an hour later, Gu Lang looked expressionlessly at Chen Xing lying on top of him, like a disobedient child, with flushed cheeks, smelling of alcohol, and exuding low air pressure.

Qiu Jiu, who was next to him, saw this scene, quickly cleaned up the bowls and chopsticks, looked at his young master and said cautiously: "Young master, take care of Chen Xing, I'm going to clean up the kitchen." After finishing speaking, he picked up the bowls and chopsticks and said Ran.

Gu Lang watched the other culprit run away, turned his head to look at Chen Xing who was on top of him, looked at his skin stained a little peachy because of drunkenness, and couldn't help but fix his eyes on him who opened his mouth because of poor breathing. On the breathing lips, the lips are pink, because they are soaked in the smell of alcohol, they look a little bit wandering, and they look good to kiss.

Gu Lang's throat rolled twice involuntarily, forcibly suppressing his sudden and unspeakable desire. He even felt that Chen Xing leaned on his shoulder, and the breath he accidentally sprayed was a little hot.

Finally, when Chen Xing entangled him again, Gu Lang finally couldn't help pushing him away, put his hands on his shoulders, and looked at him seriously, "Chen Xing, are you still awake?"

Chen Xing's face was completely flushed, and he stared at him innocently. He tilted his head when he heard him say this, and looked at him with blinking eyes. he.

But no matter how Chen Xing flung about, Gu Lang's hands were like a pair of pliers, firmly fixing his shoulders.

After a while, Chen Xing, who was struggling to no avail, stared at Gu Lang pitifully with his big watery eyes. Seeing that he was unmoved, he pursed his mouth and began to burst into tears. , "Xing Xing is so pitiful, Xing Xing just wants a hug."

Looking at Chen Xing's appearance, Gu Lang took a deep breath, let out a long sigh, let go of the hands that restrained him, pulled him into his arms, and said helplessly: "If you wake up tomorrow Come back to your senses, don't be angry with me because of shame and anger!"

Being held in Gu Lang's arms, feeling the warmth surrounding him, Chen Xing immediately stopped his tears, turned his tears into a smile, and rubbed happily in Gu Lang's arms.

Not far away, Snowball looked at the two-legged beasts who were hugging each other, tilted his head somewhat incomprehensibly, flicked his tail, yawned big, and lay down on the spot to take a nap.
