Shao Duxing looked at this old friend who was in a private school with him many years ago, "Open... pharmacy?"

"That's right, in this day and age, if you want to get rich, there are two ways, you can either steal money or sell medicine." Fengxiu took a sip of coffee, "It happens that I know a friend in Nanjing, and he doesn't want to start a medicine business. The backlog of goods from him has been collected at a low price, which is just right for me to gain a foothold here."

"Then why are you looking for me? I'm a satin maker, so I can't compete with you." Shao Duxing frowned.

"I'm not familiar with the place, I'm looking for you because I want you to help me with other things." Fengxiu smiled, lowered her voice and approached Shao Duxing, "Help me find a boy, about ten years old, with a clean background and good at handling things." Son, be healthy."

"I can't see that you still have such perverted hobbies." Shao Duxing looked at Fengxiu with a look of disgust.

Fengxiu coughed lightly, "My friend misunderstood. I thought that since I opened a pharmacy, there must always be someone to help me. Whether it's looking after the store or ordering goods, although hiring labor saves trouble, but daily life needs to be hired separately." Maid, it's really troublesome."

"So why don't you just want to buy a domestic servant? Why don't you just buy a girl who can be a concubine when she grows up." Shao Duxing rolled his eyes, "I really don't understand how rich you guys want every meal and water. Someone is taking care of it, I'm afraid it's not because I don't have long hands."

"Hahaha my friend was joking." Fengxiu laughed.

"According to me, according to your request, I have a solution. It stands to reason that it is easy to buy a servant in Shanghai. There are boys in their teens and child laborers with a few dollars. But it can take care of you. The young master has a temper, and he has to have a clean foundation. You might as well spend a few more dollars and buy one who has never been on stage in the theater. First, he is sensible and able to work. Second, the children there, if you buy it with money, you will save him. Huo Pit, I am grateful for your kindness and can be loyal."

Fengxiu pondered for a moment, this sentence was in line with his intentions, his original intention was not just to find a servant, the reason why he asked for a child was to teach him from the beginning, little by little, the children in the theater It may be easy to teach Kung Fu from a young age. "What my friend said is reasonable, I don't know if my friend can help me in this regard?"

"Introduce a familiar face, take you there, you are willing to spend money, let alone someone who has never been on stage, what's the difficulty in keeping a famous actor?" Shao Duxing shrugged and stood up, "I'll make arrangements first, You have a lot of things here, no matter what, find a store these days, where do you live now?"

"It's the hotel behind this restaurant. If a friend finds a place or finds someone, just come to this store and find me directly." Fengxiu sent the young lady out the door alone.

"I heard that you came back to inherit your uncle's inheritance? Although I don't know when you ran out as an uncle, but you can't live with such a nice garden house, so come here?" Shao Duxing went out and glanced at Fengxiu ,

"My cousin lives there, I'm not used to it." Fengxiu looked at the street with people passing by, half-closed his eyes in the morning light, and smiled comfortably.He knew that with the efficiency of doing things alone, he wouldn't wait too long. In addition, he didn't know what happened to Wuyi Shi Yin.

Wuyi Shi Yin had already finished his simple meal at this moment, and was sitting in a newspaper office at the moment, the deputy editor looked at him helplessly, "You said that you are such a person, why are you so stingy with such a big garden house? How much does it cost to sell a house and publish it in the newspaper?"

"Save if you can." Wuyi Shi Yin said with a smile, "When will your editor-in-chief come back?"

"That's not sure. Otherwise, if you leave a message, the editor-in-chief is always happy. If you can do something, you can do it if you leave a message. If you can't do it, you can't do it." The deputy editor shook his head helplessly.

"Alright." Wuyi Shi Yin smiled and handed over a piece of paper and a name card, "Then please tell Tan Wuyu that I, Wuyi Shi Yin, is Su Huan's true righteous brother. Please help me with this little matter." He stood up and said goodbye.

When he left the office of the newspaper official, the deputy editor shook his head, "The richer you are, the stingier you are, Su Huanzhen's brother-in-law, three of Su Huanzhen's younger brothers came here this month to find the editor-in-chief. I really don’t know how sacred this element is.”

The news of the sale of the garden house at No. 534 Lafayette Road occupied a block of tofu in the newspaper for the next three days, asking for a foreign transaction. Although the news occupied a small area, it was very conspicuous. On the third day, someone paid He bought this bungalow, and the original owner of the bungalow, Wuyi Shi Yin, appeared at the door of a hotel not long after the transaction.

"The mansion of the old man's house was a well-known place in the former Qing Dynasty. It became a hotel in the first year of the Republic of China. It has been so many years in a blink of an eye. It is not easy to manage it properly." Wuyi Shi Yin stood on the stairs on the second floor Looking up at the lobby on the first floor, the old man beside him was nearly seventy years old, leaning on a cane and sighing.

"Even if the management is good, there is no one under my knees, and I don't know who will take it in the future." The old man shook his head.

"Your son was arrested for participating in the revolution, and he was also confused for a while." Wuyi Shi Yin smiled, looked around and saw no one around, and lowered his voice: "I have a way to get your son out, but I don't know if sir is willing... ..."

The old man was startled, and looked up at the person in front of him, "As long as it can save the dog, under any conditions, even if it means killing the old man!"

"Oh?" Wuyi Shi Yin raised his eyebrows, "Then sir... take a step to talk?"

The old man looked Wuyi Shi Yin up and down. He ran a hotel, and he had never seen anyone in the north and south. Now he looks at this person in front of him, but he feels unfathomable. He looks like a frail scholar at first glance, but in reality Go... He nodded in silence for a moment, then stretched out his hand to let Wuyi Shi Yin into the study on the third floor.

"Yo, not bad." When Fengxiu stepped into the hotel a few hours later, Wuyi Shi Yin had become the new owner here, "How much will it cost?"

"One thousand is the ocean." Wuyi Master Yin brought Fengxiu into the study and sat down.

"You're kidding me." Fengxiu looked left and right, and finally sat down on the sofa, and someone brought a cup of English black tea.

"It's true. I originally planned to sell the bungalow and open a small shop, but suddenly I remembered the news that the head teacher gave me before I left, saying that the son of the head of the hotel is in our hands. The crime is not serious and we can use it." Wu Clothes master Yin looked at Fengxiu, "So I gave the old head a thousand cash and told him to go to Nanjing to pick up his son, and the hotel will belong to me."

"It's yours." Fengxiu nodded her head, "With such good information, why didn't you share it with me?"

"If you leave me ten yuan that morning, I can also share some of the money from selling the house with you." Wuyi Shi Yin sneered, and someone knocked on the door and brought in a fried steak.

Fengxiu glanced at his watch, "It's two o'clock in the afternoon, do you have dinner at this time?"

"Thanks to you, I haven't eaten for three days." Wuyi Shi Yin glared at Fengxiu, "My side is almost done, how is your side doing?"

"If you don't send someone to notify me, I should have made arrangements by now." Fengxiu stood up, "I'm going to meet my new partner, and I will send someone to notify me if there is something else, cousin, you... take your time." Eat, don't choke." He looked at Wuyi Shi Yin choked on the steak because of the name of his cousin with a funny face, and walked away with a smile.

On the rickshaw outside the hotel, Shao Duxing was waiting for him, "Very punctual, 5 minutes, no more, no less." Fengxiu jumped into the car, Shao Duxing frowned, "You call another car, I think it's too crowded."

"Yeah? Save it once in a while." Feng Xiu hugged Shao Duxing's shoulders, "Shall we go to the shop you found for me first, or to the theater first?"

"I went to Xiyuanzi late, but there will be no time when the theater starts. The pharmacy is already yours. You can go there anytime." Shaoduxing took out the title deed from his pocket and stuffed it directly into Fengxiu's hand.

"Thank you." Feng Xiu smiled, the rickshaw ran for a while and arrived at the back door of a theater, Shao Duxing stepped forward and knocked on the door, Feng Xiu got out of the car, gave the driver some money, followed Shao Duxing into the theater.

There are a group of children practicing kung fu in the yard, the older ones are only thirteen or fourteen years old, and the younger ones are only five or six years old. Fengxiu looked around, and was attracted by a kid singing in Tsing Yi. He looks like he is singing a joke from "Suo Lin Nang", "There are so many rich people in the world? There are hunger, cold and sorrow, and frustration and crying. The people in the sedan chair play different tunes, and there must be something hidden in their hearts."

Fengxiu stopped and took a look, "You have a good voice."

"Indeed." Shao Duxing also stopped to take another look.

However, the master over there was very dissatisfied. He hit the child on the shoulder with a bamboo board and said, "The movements are too stiff, try again!"

Fengxiu saw the child trembling from the beating, and a person came out from inside, "Misters, please invite inside, the class master is waiting." Fengxiu glanced at the child again, her eyebrows and eyes were also pretty, although she was not wearing makeup , but just standing like this, her thin body looks like a girl.

"All the children in my theatrical garden are sensible. As long as they have never been on stage, sir can pick them at will. In view of the face of the young master, the price is easy to negotiate." The troupe leader was generous, and smiled with a good tea.

"I've been in charge of the family for so many years, less head of the family, less head of the house." Shao Duxing snorted, "It's not good to be serious."

Fengxiu also laughed, and he was not polite, and asked straightforwardly, "What's the name of the one singing in Tsing Yi in the yard?"

"Yo, sir, that's the kid you're looking for." The head teacher showed a hint of surprise, "That kid's name is Fu Ying, and he's been in my class for more than two years, but if he..."

"What?" Shao Duxing was taken aback, "Team leader, you have something to say, as long as you have never been on stage, you can say it."

"Haha, it's not that I'm reluctant, it's that the kid said it well when he came here. His brother was sick, and I saw him for him. He studied opera here. He spent a lot of money to get in these years, and now he sees it. It's time to go on stage, but if you want to say 15 yuan, you can take the lead, but you can't." The class leader shook his head, "Besides, that kid has a good voice, and he will hold a handful of them in the future and become a corner, that's also..."

"I'll give you 50 yuan, is it alright?" Fengxiu glanced at the class leader, "Tell me where his brother lives. I run a pharmacy business. It's not difficult to add a few more medicines every month."

The class leader was stunned for a moment, obviously he didn't expect Fengxiu to be so generous, he hesitated for a moment, stood up and walked to the door, and shouted, "Fuying, come here."

Shao Duxing took advantage of the class leader's absence and whispered to Fengxiu: "Are you out of your mind? 50 yuan for the ocean? The money burned you!"

"Yeah, fate is a word that can't be met." Fengxiu smiled and watched the class leader lead the child named Fuying in all the way.The two looked at each other, Fengxiu was smiling, and Fuying was somewhat curious.
