[Comprehensive] Retirement of the brave

Chapter 85 Chapter System (1)

Ning Caichen, a native of Zhejiang, has a clear temperament and is generous. He often says to people: "I have never loved two women at the same time."

Contrary to him is a fellow villager named Ran Su, who seldom goes out to socialize, has a gloomy and reticent temperament, and occasionally speaks outrageous words, which make the listeners dumbfounded.And he is stingy, even if he borrows a penny or a bowl of water, he has to ask the reason clearly, otherwise he will sternly refuse.Many classmates secretly compared him to an iron rooster-a hairless man.

And this Ran Su is Bai who was thrown into another world to continue reincarnation.Those who are in charge of the bureau in this world want moderation.Temperance is also restraint, and its existence has allowed Bai to restrain his own strength and restrain his temper for a long time.The small world is extremely fragile, and the creatures are also extremely fragile in front of him, so he must be cautious and restrained at all times, so as not to accidentally hurt someone with every gesture.

Ran Su studied for a few years, and was too lazy to take any exams, so he turned around and invested all his wealth, learning to start a business.He always thought that if he wanted to be an official, he must be a good official, but being a good official in the Qing court where the Manchus ruled was too tiring, no matter whether he was high or low, he couldn't take it easy.In comparison, it is better to do business, and you should always be more practical when you have money in your hands.

He does have some ability in this way, his methods are not bad, his vision is accurate, and he made back his capital within a year.He used the capital to recruit some assistants and guards, and after two months of practice, he became a shopkeeper himself, starting to do the work of waiting for the money to be counted.Other businessmen are also jealous of his ability to make money, and want to poach someone from him to find out some of his secrets of making money.But except for poaching one at the beginning, none of the subsequent ones succeeded.

Some scholars in the village do not want to associate with him. They feel that he insults the status of a scholar, but also feel that he is willing to degenerate and has no integrity.Since then, Ran Su's reputation has worsened.

One day, Ning Caichen had something to go to Jinhua, and Ran Su happened to also go to Jinhua to discuss a business.Along the way, the mountains are high and the water is far away, so there may be some dangers.Ran Su has always been accompanied by guards when he goes out, so Ning Caichen had no choice but to talk to Ran Su to see if he could take him along.

After hearing this, Ran Su thought for a while and asked, "What price are you willing to pay for taking me a ride? You should know that I am a businessman, and businessmen are always unwilling to do business at a loss."

Ning Caichen was a little dumbfounded, his family was not rich, so he could barely afford food and drink.He came to Ran Su in the hope that he would help out because of his hometown and friendship, so that he would not have to spend any more money to find a reliable caravan to take him with him. "This, this..." He said this and that for a while, hesitating to the end without saying a definite number.I just feel that Ran Su is really the same as what others say, and he cares about every detail.

"Forget it, I don't care too much with you. Prepare your own food, take care of your own accommodation, and the trip is counted as one trip, which is half of your market price. How about it?" Seeing Ning Caichen touched his purse with embarrassment, he seemed to be still Some embarrassment.Ran Su was impatient to argue with him more, "If you don't want to, then forget it, I don't have any interest in forcing people to do business."

"Hey, wait a minute." Ning Caichen gritted his teeth, half of the market price is fine, it's a saving.He folded his hands and bowed to Ran Su as a scholar, and said: "Then I'll leave it to Brother Ran."

"It's good to know." Ran Su went back to the courtyard with his hands behind his back, leaving only Ning Caichen and the closed door staring at each other.

Ran Su's caravan has always paid attention to efficiency, and this time it is mainly for business negotiation, the goods they bring are only for one trip, earning some subsidies for consumption along the way.In the early morning of the next day, the convoy was ready. Six vehicles loaded with goods lined up one after another. The guards carried short clubs and had knives hanging from their waists.

There are also firearms, but the number is smaller, and they are all held by several team leaders.If someone robs, without a weapon, the guards will threaten with short sticks.Those who take weapons will respond to the enemy with waist knives, and those who do not leave will meet with firearms.This is also the rule set by Ran Su.

Ning Caichen was already waiting by the convoy with the package on his back, looking at the guards for a while and looking at the goods for a while, anxiously wanting to have a few words with the guys who inspected the goods, to get to the bottom of it.Those guys just said a few perfunctory words like "Young Master Ning, don't worry", then turned around and went to their own business.

After another quarter of an hour, the sound of hoofbeats came from far to near, and Ran Su came over on a tall horse.He looked down at Ning Caichen, "Where's your mount?"

Ning Caichen said embarrassingly: "My family is really poor, and I can't spare any extra mounts. Besides, I'm not good at riding. I wonder if Brother Ran will allow me to find a place to squeeze in on the cart? "

After checking the goods, he went forward and handed the invoice to Ran Su, and he muttered in a voice that was either big or small, "This product may be heavier than your net worth, if it is squeezed out, you Can a poor scholar afford compensation?" Ning Caichen blushed.

This is what the guy said specifically to him.There are quite a few buddies who have heard rumors that this scholar surnamed Ning has such a good character. He feels that he has never read a book, has no education, and has never seen this Ning before.But he was thinking, if this Ning Ning person is really so good, his boss didn't see him speak out when he was studying in the academy.

And what about "I have never loved two women at the same time," isn't it saying, "I am fickle and affectionate. When I see one, I love the other. If I fall in love with the latter, I forget the first one?" Don't be ashamed to talk about it.Especially when we met today, Ning Caichen kept inquiring about this and that. The guy who put a filter on the boss always felt that he had ulterior motives.

Ordinary people can't afford livestock to serve as mounts, and Ran Su will definitely not delay the trip because of him alone.Ning Caichen racked his brains and couldn't come up with an idea, so Ran Su came up with a solution.It is possible to rent a cart to Ning Caichen to accommodate him, but the original [-]% of the amount has to be increased to [-]%, and the caravan is on the road.

The goods on the car were slowly sold for two cars on the way to Jinhua, and they were filled with special products along the way. Ning Caichen couldn't understand the way, but was made miserable by the tight itinerary.Fortunately, along the way, he finally got acquainted with the guards and fellows who accompanied him a little bit, and he no longer had a blushing situation like in the beginning when no one responded to his words.

Traveling on the road was boring, so the guys told Ning Caichen interesting stories on the road to business.It was inevitable that he talked about his boss, Ran Su.Maybe you have heard a lot of what you say and what you say, but when he approached Jinhua City, Ning Caichen actually changed his mind about Ran Su.

Ning Caichen and Ran Su agreed on the time for the return trip and parted at the city gate. After parting, he walked around the city.Now it was time for the envoy to preside over the exam, and the rental price of houses in the city was high, Ning Caichen had no choice but to find another place.So I walked and walked to a temple in the north of the city.

The main hall of the temple is majestic and the pagoda is solemn, but the weeds on the ground are half the height of a person. There are no pilgrims coming and going to worship, and there are no monks in the temple.Looking up, only a new lock was hung on the door of a hut in the south.In this temple, a piece of green bamboo is planted at the east foot of the hall, and a wild lotus is half spread in a pond under the steps, and the lotus pokes its head out of the lotus leaves, looking beautiful.

Ning Caichen took a look at it and immediately fell in love with this quiet scenery.Anyway, the rental price in the city was high, so he decided to stop here for a while, and wait for the monk to come back to discuss the matter of borrowing.

When the sun was setting and the sky was getting dark, a scholar walked into the temple. Ning Caichen, who was going to open the door of the hut in the south, hurriedly stepped forward to salute, saying that he was staying here for the night.

The scholar said: "This temple has long been abandoned. There is no owner. I am also staying here. If you stay, I can ask for advice sooner or later. Naturally, there is no reason to refuse. It's just that I also asked others to stay overnight. Now it's only Come back first and open the door. Whether you can stay, you still have to ask that person's opinion in the end."

"May I ask when that person will come back?"

"He went to buy some things, and he should be here in a while." The scholar opened the lock and raised his chin behind him, "Well, he's back soon."

The author has something to say: Note: In the "Great Qing Law" of the Qing Dynasty, the magistrates and county magistrates at all levels were told: "Where private private individuals have vests, side cards, torches, artillery, flag banners, and belts, military weapons should be banned. Eighty sticks for one piece, plus one level for each piece. For private builders, one level will be added for private crimes, and each crime will be stopped with one hundred sticks. Officials. Other bows and arrows, spears, knives, crossbows, harpoons, and forks can be owned by ordinary people, but are not restricted.

Because Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio belonged to the Qing Dynasty, so being Nie Xiaoqian was also a matter of the Qing Dynasty.

I know that the Qing Dynasty wanted to shave their heads, but shaving their heads is too ugly. There are no shaved heads in the movies, so let's just pretend they have their hair intact.

And, guess what, how big am I going to play this time! !

Besides, there is no one who reminds me to change, I want to goo.
