The little guy didn't quite understand: "The old boss didn't say anything, but he just shook his head and sighed every time he came back. In the past, the rice shop still made money, and sometimes we could get some benefits. After joining this guild, I heard that the less we earned, the later we went out again. There was some trouble, the old club simply closed the shop and went back to the hometown."

Xue Yinsong was still smiling easily. Seeing that he didn't take it seriously, the boy was a little anxious: "The shopkeeper! Everything I said is true!"

Xue Yinsong nodded to comfort him and said, "Yeah, don't be afraid, the shopkeeper has no other skills, and he has a way to deal with them."

The little guy thought about it and said: "The old boss also said that the money for the meeting seems to be not cheap, and it costs a few taels of silver every year."

Xue Yinsong said with a smile: "Since I opened the shop, I haven't made a total of five taels. They think so beautifully."

Seeing the relaxed expression on his face, the little guy couldn't find anything to say, so he stomped his feet and gave him a stern look before leaving.

The shopkeeper was too prestige, Xue Yinsong rubbed his chin dumbfounded, it seems that it is not so easy to be a leader.

The banquet time was set at noon the next day, and Xue Yinsong didn't plan to change clothes before he left. Xiao Xiucai asked beside him, "You don't plan to wear this suit, do you?"

Xue Yinsong smiled casually: "Why not? I was just here to mess things up."

The little scholar frowned and said, "I've heard people say that the people in power in the guild are all prominent local gentry. If you offend them, there will be no fruit for you."

Xue Yinsong was escorted into the room by him and changed into clean clothes: "Are you so particular? Then we must join the club?"

"Of course you have to join the club," the little scholar said, "At least if you join the club, they won't be able to deal with you openly."

Xue Yinsong said with a smile: "You are only a fool to believe that when they have to deal with you, they don't care whether you have joined the club or not! All right, I will handle this matter."

Although he changed into clean clothes, Xue Yinsong hadn't bought any outfits for himself in the past year. Speaking of which, this commoner clothes were bought by Xiao Xiucai when he hired him.At that time, his identity was a long-term worker, and the texture of the clothes could be imagined. Xue Yinsong went out in a good mood while imagining the faces of those old ghosts.

Zui Tianxian was not far away, Xue Yinsong walked in and went straight up to the second floor, a dark-faced man stood at the door, reminding him solemnly: "Have you brought the invitation?"

Xue Yinsong stood still, groped his body in a panic, and hurriedly replied: "Oh, I didn't bring it with me, can this elder brother be accommodating? You see, I really came to the banquet. Didn't say to check the invitation."

The black-faced god glanced at him contemptuously: "What a dog and a cat, I can't let you in without an invitation." He looked up to the sky, but gestured back and forth with one hand below.

Xue Yinsong pretended not to understand, and replied seriously: "This brother really enforces the law strictly and impartially, my invitation must be there, don't worry! I will go back and look for it, and I will find it and bring it here!"

The black-faced god was taken aback, Xue Yinsong went downstairs and said loudly: "My house is very close, I can find it in a while and bring it here, and you will know that I am here to join the guild after you read the invitation later... I'll be right back!"

The black-faced god was dumbfounded, and the person hiding inside the door watched the whole process, and immediately turned around and went in to report.

Shopkeeper He listened with a gloomy face, sneered and said to the people present: "This is a troublemaker, it seems that we all misjudged him!"

Shopkeeper Qian replied nonchalantly, "Maybe you really forgot to bring the invitation card?"

Shopkeeper Du understood immediately, and twiddled a few sparse catfish beards to analyze: "This kid is full of bad things, and he wants to drag us to the back. Originally, Shopkeeper Cui's idea was good, but I didn't expect this kid to fail. Now that he has run away, we are so tired that we sit here waiting for him. A table of good food and good food can't be used without chopsticks, and we have completely lost our own face. We can't be honest and say that our president invites people to dinner. As a result, you ate before the person arrived, right?"

Shopkeeper He's face became more gloomy, he snorted coldly and looked at Shopkeeper Cui, next to Shopkeeper Wang was busy coughing: "If you want me to say, I'd better ask someone to invite someone, this kid might make up his mind to pretend that he couldn't find the invitation card, Everyone here can't just sit here and wait to die, can you? If this matter gets out, people will laugh out loud!"

Everyone looked at shopkeeper He, but shopkeeper He had no choice but to turn his head and order the boy to invite someone.

Xue Yinsong didn't go very far, not that he wanted to go back together, it's purely because he knew that today's meal must be eaten, and he had to go back again after walking back, so he simply walked slowly, and was invited back again half-heartedly .

As soon as he entered the private room, shopkeeper He stood up with a gloomy face, and said dryly: "Please sit down." Shopkeeper Cui hurriedly made up for his mistakes, introduced the names and identities one by one from the main seat, and the guest of honor sat down together with tea and water Down.

Xue Yinsong smiled and said, "I don't know why you specially invited me to dinner today?"

Shopkeeper Du narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "Family has family rules, state-owned laws, and the rice and grain industry in this county is also managed by a guild. Since Xiaodi Xue has opened a shop in Fuchun County, he naturally has to join the guild according to the rules."

These are a pair of slender flying phoenix eyes, and there is a icy cold light in the eyeballs. Xue Yinsong felt as if he had been scanned by X-rays. The shopkeeper is blaming my younger brother for not knowing the rules, but my younger brother is really wronged. You said that I, a countryman, opened a shop and entered the city for the first time. There is a rice grain guild, if I know there is a guild, how can I be so ignorant!"

Shopkeeper He raised his eyes and said coldly: "There are guilds in every industry, doesn't it mean that little brother Xue doesn't know?"

Xue Yinsong pretended to be surprised and replied: "We haven't heard of any farming guilds in the countryside. Don't they grow and harvest rice by themselves and sell rice by themselves? Besides, I really don't know what the guilds are for. Woolen cloth."

The treasurer Wang on the side hurriedly explained: "It's mutual aid in the same industry, such as mutual aid from positions, stock transfers, etc."

Xue Yinsong was even more surprised: "Okay, okay, of course such a good meeting should be admitted."

Shopkeeper He's expression softened a little. Seeing this, Shopkeeper Cui immediately asked, "So are you willing to join the club?"

Xue Yinsong smiled and said, "Of course I am willing. How could you not want such a good opportunity?"

Shopkeeper He took a sip of tea, and said slowly: "It's a good day today, and the food on this table is also rich, even if it's Brother Xue's club."

Xue Yinsong was not too polite. After raising his glass and drinking with a few people, he sat down with a smile and praised: "Good wine, good wine, you all eat vegetables, don't be polite, don't be polite, although I said you invited me to dinner, but Don't be too restrictive."

The faces of several people turned green, only the chubby shopkeeper Wang couldn't help but reminded: "Brother Xue has to pay for the wine to join the club."

Xue Yinsong was biting a chicken leg, and stared at the words: "I came from a long way, am I not just a guest? Isn't my seat a guest seat? Isn't shopkeeper He the host seat? The rule is that the person sitting in the guest seat pays for it?"

Several people were dumbfounded, and shopkeeper He, who was sitting in the main seat, coughed and reprimanded: "It doesn't matter if you invite a guest, the expenses will be paid by the meeting."

Only then did Xue Yinsong munched on the chicken drumsticks with a smile: "I like to hear what Shopkeeper He said. Come on, Shopkeeper He, let's have a drink."

Shopkeeper He had no choice but to take a cup and reluctantly touched it to take a sip. Xue Yinsong searched around with his hands as if he hadn't eaten enough, and took a porcelain spoon to scoop up the three delicacies soup: "This is The tripe strips, right? This chef is too good, the tripe strips are cut like silver noodles, how do you eat this, it’s still big and chewy.”

Several people were dumbfounded when they saw his eating, and it took a long time for shopkeeper Cui to smile and say: "Brother Xue is really funny."

Xue Yinsong wiped his mouth, and said nonchalantly: "Brother Cui has good eyesight, we country people say I'm rude and impolite, but they don't understand. Eating big pieces of meat and drinking in big bowls is the enjoyment of life."

Shopkeeper Wang paid sympathy for the Sanxiantang that was looted by Xue Yinsong with an expression of no pity: "Since brother Xue agrees to join the membership, then pay the membership fee early tomorrow, so that you can enjoy the various rights and benefits of membership in time."

"Membership fee?" Xue Yinsong made a loud noise, a little surprised: "I still have to pay a membership fee? Then I won't join! I won't join!" He murmured and complained: "I haven't made any money since I opened the shop. Well, not to mention spending a lot of money, and now I have to pay the clerk’s wages every month, if I had known that opening a store would cost so much money, I would not open it!”

Shopkeeper Cui smiled and said: "Everything is difficult at the beginning, but everything will be smooth in the future. Besides, if you join the club, we will help you if you have difficulties in the future."

Xue Yinsong thought for a while and said: "How about this, the membership fee is owed first, as long as the younger brother makes money this year, he will definitely make up for it."

Shopkeeper Li, who had been silent by the side, finally spoke. His voice was thin and hoarse, which was impressive: "Mr. Yes, we will treat you as a member, and we will definitely not lose you if there are benefits in the future; if you don’t join the association today, hehe, you will be treated as a different kind if you are not of my race, and then don’t worry about our fellow guilds.

Xue Yinsong said with a smile: "This is shopkeeper Li. Sure enough, if we confessed like this as soon as we got on the table, we would actually save us a lot of trouble, wouldn't we? I don't know if I can get in or not. I have to go back and sue the master." You know, as long as the master says to join the club, it will be a thousand taels of membership fee, and I will give it as much."

Shopkeeper Du's slender eyes swept over again: "So there is someone in charge behind Brother Xue? But what we learned, isn't the title deed of this shop in your name?"

Xue Yinsong said with a smile: "This is the brilliance of my master. We slaves who are sent out are the legal owners of the shop, so we will work hard for the master."

There is some truth in this statement. Shopkeeper He carefully looked at him a few times, and seeing that his face was calm and unpretentious, he finally said coldly: "That's very good." Then he stood up and walked away with a flick of his sleeves, while the other shopkeepers looked at each other , also got up and left.

Xue Yinsong yelled loudly from behind: "Hey! Shopkeeper He, don't forget that today's table is paid for by the membership fee!"
