In the early morning of May 28, when it was still dark, Zhang Qing got up, woke up Xiaozhan, washed up and went over there, Lin Qi also got up, the three of them divided the work, Xiaozhan washed vegetables, peeled shrimp and prepared ingredients, Zhang Qing mixed Stuffing, Lin Qi and noodles.Although it was Lin Qi's first face-to-face meeting, after watching Zhang Qing's demonstration, he learned well. Zhang Qing was very satisfied. This guy is taciturn, but he knows everything. Although he can't support the front, it saves himself a lot of effort Physical strength, I made up my mind that if I made money, I would definitely pay Lin more.

At dawn, the three of them packed five cages, steamed them first, steamed them half a minute later, tied them with ropes, Xiaozhan carried them and ran to find Zhao Qing, Lin Qi said, I’ll go, and asked for the address I took it with me.After Zhang Qing and the two had just packed a cage, Lin Qi came back with an empty cage, and Xiaozhan asked, "Brother Lin, why are you so fast? Are you flying?" Lin Qi asked Without changing his face: "I walk fast." After finishing speaking, he went to work.Zhang Qing smiled and shook his head, thinking that Lin Qi is really a weird person.

Gradually, there are more diners. Because of the novelty and deliciousness, many diners take away one or two baskets after eating, ten in one basket, a total of [-] yuan per basket, which is much more expensive than steamed buns, but here are all businesses, so the money is not put in in the eyes.Zhang Qing wrapped them in large, washed vegetable leaves before letting them take them away.I thought this is not a busy market, and the business would not be very good, but I didn’t expect people to come and go, a continuous stream, Xiaozhan was paying and collecting money in the front, Zhang Qing was busy in the kitchen in the backyard, Lin Qi shuttled between the front and back yards, the three of them cooperated tacitly .In the afternoon, work was over, and after counting the water, there was actually a penny and a half. After deducting the cost of vegetables and meat, it was less than a penny. According to this calculation, I could earn three or four taels of silver every month after deducting other costs.The two brothers are very happy, even if they don't earn much money, it can be regarded as a job.

After a busy month like this, more and more customers were eating, and porridge and wontons were added. Finally, after the calculation, it exceeded expectations and earned a full eight taels of silver. In this way, he could earn nearly 100 taels a year.Because the business was good, Lin Qi was paid one tael of silver.

Oops, I didn't expect this dumpling to earn so much money!Xiaozhan sighed, you know, Mr. Xinyu's seven or eight hundred taels of silver was eight years of blood and tears, and he secretly saved so much because he was reluctant to spend it.

When the two brothers were busy with business, Qin Shucheng was rushing back to Nanshui City.Because the military training had come to an end, he was on vacation for a month, so he rode out alone on a bay red horse without his own soldiers. He left Linhai early in the morning and arrived before noon. Hongfeng was really a steed.

I looked for Lin Qi at the inn where I often stopped, and learned that Lin Qi had left a message asking him to go to Zhang's noodle shop on Chemashi Street, so I turned around, got on my horse and walked towards Chemashi Street.The sky was cloudy, and it seemed that it was going to rain again. Qin Shucheng urged Hongfeng to quicken his pace.

Going east from the Chariot Market, I didn't see any pastry shops until I walked to the location of the blacksmith shop where I changed the horse's palms last time, and I was surprised.The blacksmith's shop is gone, the door is open, the black paint is repainted, and the red paper of the happy opening is pasted. People come and go, laughing and talking.

I got off the horse and walked to the door. The house was tidy and the floor tiles were evened out. The broken shed on the east wall was replaced by a brand new bamboo shed. It was verdant, novel and lovely. There were also bamboo tables and chairs under the bamboo shed. There were many people, and there was only one vacant seat. .A twelve or thirteen-year-old boy greeted him with a smile: "Guests, please come in. The shrimp dumplings have just come out of the cage. Would you like a cage?" Qin Shucheng nodded and sat down. The boy poured a cup of tea, took the reins and tied the horse to the west wall. On a wooden peg under the stable.Hong Feng is very docile, obediently bowing her head to eat the forage under her feet.Because this is a chariot and horse market, Zhang Qing specially set up a stable. The horse owners feel very caring and often come to eat.

Qin Shucheng saw that the boy looked familiar. After thinking about it, he recognized the boy who was with the person he saved last time.But Xiaozhan didn't recognize him, because he was so scared that day that he didn't remember to look at him at all.Qin Shucheng sat on a bamboo chair under the bamboo shed, looked around, saw diners coming and going, but did not see Lin Qi, couldn't help being surprised.Just as he was about to stand up and look for him, he suddenly saw a man in brown and short jacket, with a white towel on his shoulders, and three small cages in his hands, walking to the shed to distribute food for the diners. Looking carefully, it was Lin Lin. Suddenly, with a "poof", he turned his head and sprayed out the tea.Qin Shucheng wanted to laugh, but Lin Qi motioned him to keep quiet.Qin Shucheng tried his best to hold back his laughter, Lin Qi put a basket of dumplings in front of him, and left expressionlessly.Qin Shucheng temporarily suppressed his curiosity, and picked up a small dumpling with chopsticks. The skin was thin and transparent, and the filling could be vaguely seen. After dipping it in vinegar, he put it in his mouth, and when he bit it open, it was delicious. I haven't eaten.I became even more curious in my heart, and I wanted to ask Lin Qi a lot of questions, so I had to wait for him to call it a day.After lunch, the guests gradually dispersed. Zhang Qing and the others cleaned up and had dinner. After the meal, the Zhang family brothers went home, and Lin Qi called it a day.

Qin Shucheng didn't go to the backyard just now, so he didn't see Zhang Qing.Now Lin Qi was the only one left, so I followed him to the backyard.Walking and looking around, I saw three dilapidated houses that had only been renovated. A bamboo door on the west wall led to the next door, the kitchen in the west room, and the east room was under the forest. The doors and windows were old and the bedding was new.

Qin Shucheng sat down on the edge of the kang, Lin Qi followed and knelt down on one knee: "See the general!" Qin Shucheng stretched out his hand to help him up, motioning for him to sit down, Lin Qi sat on the bamboo couch, and began to explain what he saw during this period smell.

Only then did Qin Shucheng realize that the parents of these two brothers died, and they had never met relatives from afar, so he wanted to start a small business here.They are busy very early in the morning, and will be free in the second half of the day, but they will take a nap, and it is best to visit in the evening.It is true that Mr. Zhang's family is not sick, but he deliberately concealed his appearance. The Zhang family next door will wash off his face and reveal his original appearance. His appearance is very outstanding, which is better than the one given by the general in Shangjing earlier. It's even better.Lin Qi is a warrior, he doesn't know how to be a literati, he only knows how to describe a beauty as good-looking.

Qin Shucheng nodded, a little embarrassed. Earlier, when he was 19 years old, his father urged him to get married. He was unwilling. The emperor had just ascended the throne at that time, and he was still a big boy like him. The two grew up together, studying, learning Martial arts, of course, are very familiar, others don't know, the emperor knows that he likes men, so he can't help but secretly give him a beautiful boy. The boy is as soft as cotton, and Qin Shucheng likes it very much. Qin Shucheng gradually got tired of being around him, and asking him to be with him all the time. What did he think was different from a woman?and sent him away.From then on, I thought it was better for boys to be self-reliant, and turned a blind eye to those who took the initiative to post, and turned away thousands of miles.But there are few beauties who are not proud of their looks. They either want to seek wealth based on their beauty, or they want to be praised by others, which is not to their liking. Qin Shucheng has been alone in the past few years.Therefore, people only say that he is clean and self-conscious, and he is not close to beauty.

Farewell to Lin Qi, rode back to the inn, took a shower, changed into clean clothes, didn't wear expensive clothes, just picked up a very common blue shirt and black cloth shoes to put on.Wrapped in a blue turban.Qin Shucheng is away all year round, and has a strong ability to take care of himself. Like Lin Qi, he is capable of everything.

After dinner, before it was dark, Qin Shucheng went out to buy four-color snacks, walked to Zhang's next door to the snack shop, and slammed the door knocker. Xiaozhan had just finished washing the dishes in the kitchen when he heard the door knocker ring, and hurried out to answer. Door.When he opened the door, he saw that it was the guests who came to eat at noon. He greeted the guests with a smile and asked them to sit down first. Smiling slightly, he said, "Do you still remember the frightened horse?" Xiaozhan looked him up and down, wondering, "Could it be that the guest was the strong man who landed on the frightened horse that day and saved my brother?" Qin Shucheng nodded.Xiaozhan quickly knelt down and said: "I am blind, and I would like to thank the strong man for saving me. We were looking for you that day, but you left unexpectedly. Please wait a moment, I will go to the backyard to invite my brother." After finishing speaking He stood up and ran away.

Within half a moment, hurried footsteps came from outside the door, and a boy in gray cloth walked in quickly, with the same face, yellow, eyes like autumn water.As soon as the boy entered the room and saw Qin Shucheng, he bowed his head and said, "Thank you for saving my life, the strong man!" The voice was as clear as a stream.Qin Shucheng quickly got up and supported him.Zhang Qing stood up, tall and thin, as tough as bamboo.Qin Shu intentionally secretly liked it.

They all sat down and exchanged names. Qin Shucheng's characters were Wenlv, while Zhang Qing had no characters.Qin Shucheng said: "Two months ago, I had urgent business and had to leave, but I hit it off with Brother Zhang Xian, so I came to visit and just be friends?" Zhang Qing said: "Brother Qin, you are welcome, help me I haven't thanked you yet, and being friends is even more desirable." After chatting for a while, Qin Shucheng left.
