Yi didn't sleep well for even a few days, so he didn't have much energy to go to school to class on February 2nd.

When we arrived at the school, the number of students was significantly smaller. Most of the students who left the county town and returned to their hometowns a year ago did not come back, but a few new primary school children came.

Mr. Su Yunzhong only sent the "textbook" to the class in the morning, but it was still the Analects of Confucius, but it was just the lower part of the Analects of Confucius, and let students recite it themselves.

For children who are new to primary school, they don’t know many words, and even if they know, they can only memorize them by rote. In the afternoon, parents came to visit one after another, and they all offered Shu Xiu in fear. By the time of school, Chen Xi never saw Mr. Su again.

He was supposed to go home after school, but Chen Xi wanted to help Shen Mingjun feed poultry, so he went directly to the farm in the south of the city. At that time, Shen Xi stirred the rotten food and fed the chickens and ducks, and then boiled rice bran and rotten vegetable leaves for the pigs to eat. He was so tired that he was sweating profusely and was about to leave. Wang Lingzhi rushed over, panting and seemed very anxious.

"Senior brother, I've found you."

Wang Lingzhi calmed down a little and said, "Yesterday I asked my father whether my family would move out of Ninghua. My father warned him not to listen to the rumors outside, and to study with peace of mind, it would be as if my father had no plans to move away."

Chen Xi didn't expect that Wang Ling was so enthusiastic that he actually asked his father about this, but even if Wang Changnie really wanted to move away, he wouldn't have to go with his son.

"Okay, you don't have to worry about this in the future. When you are in Ninghua, I will teach you what I should teach you, but you also need to help you properly."

Wang Lingzhi smiled and said, "Look at my senior brother, when will I not help? Do you need me to feed these things for you? It seems quite interesting."

Feeding poultry and livestock is very dirty. Nothing else, it is just the smell of boiling pig food. Most people can't stand it. Wang Lingzhi actually found it fun, and Chen Xi was speechless. This rich young master didn't know the hardships of the world. If it were ordinary people, it would be very common to raise chickens, ducks, rabbits and pigs at home. After picking rabbit grass and fighting pig grass for many years, I'm afraid it would be too late to avoid it!

Chen Xi and Wang Lingzhi separated and returned to the medicine shop. Tian Huiniang came back from the Xinshou very early and was discussing things with Zhou.

Chen Xi listened next to him, well, it's a good thing. m..comstyett;

The court knew that the rioters in northern Guangdong and western Fujian caused panic in the 1920s. The Fujian Commander Command sent two thousand troops to Tingzhou Prefecture to quell the bandits. Now the troops have arrived in Ninghua County.

"It seems that it won't take long to pacify the bandits in this place, and the county town will be as lively as before." Hui Niang said with a little longing.

Zhou sighed, "Yes, when I first entered the city last year, the teahouse was lively every day. When the scholar Yang family generals were all over the streets, there were also grass-roots teams playing the stage to sing the southern opera. People from all over the country flocked into the city for only a long time, and the city was declining like this. If we hadn't sold medicine, we might have lost what we were like."

Hui Niang agreed.

When the two women were discussing things, Yu was helping to calculate the accounts, while Ning'er was screening the medicinal materials, and she didn't feel much. Chen Xi was inspired after hearing this, and he finally knew what life his father should do next.

Chen Xi had imagined more than once before that he had to find a career that his father could do. He didn't need much technical content. He could also take care of Shen Mingjun, preferably sitting and collecting money.

It is precisely because of the strict requirements that I can't find the right one.

But from Zhou's words, Chen Xi recalled the period of time in the city that was popular in the city the first year, and the grass-roots team was also very lively at that time. It was all because Lin Zhongye, the doctor of the Ministry of Works, entered Ninghua County, and the few plays he presented and the Yang family's general books were disturbed. Then there were plagues and thieves, and there were no new plays and books in the city, so the trend naturally faded.

What Chen Xi thought was to pack up this industry and form an industry.

The matter is not complicated, just rent a place to open a tea shop and ask two bookmakers to talk about the new book he wrote. If the people in the city take advantage of the opportunity of eradicating the bandits outside the city, the people in the city urgently need entertainment projects, and they may be able to earn a lot of money.

Thinking of doing it, Chen Xi felt that this was much more reliable than opening an escort agency or a money shop. Because the city was in a downturn during the Chinese New Year, the rent of shops along the street had already dropped again and again. Although it was impossible to open a large teahouse, you can start with a tea shop and expand your business step by step.

Shen Mingjun did not go home that night. The next afternoon, Chen Xi simply went to the Wang family to wait for Shen Mingjun to get off work. On the way to the south of the city, Chen Xi took his own idea.

Shen Mingjun looked embarrassed: "Lang, yours is pretty good, but we two don't have the capital. We don't know anyone in the city, so where can we rent a shop?"

Chen Xi took out the six or seven taels of scattered silver he had obtained from selling paintings from his arms and presented it to Shen Mingjun.

Shen Mingjun was shocked and changed color and asked, "Where did you get this much money? Could it be stolen from your mother? Let it be put back quickly."

Chen Xi shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Dad, you look down on your son! My son is a scholar. Scholars pay attention to integrity. How could they steal the dog?"

"Besides, you don't know how tight your mother cares about the money. If I really steal her money, I will take it, and she will make a big fuss. She will not even call her dad home to educate me, have you ever had this incident?"

Shen Mingjun scratched his head embarrassedly: "That's true!"

Chen Xi said again: "This is actually left to me by the old man before leaving. If the family cannot continue to support me in school, I will use this money to pay the memorial service. I cannot take it out unless I have to use my father. I didn't mean to hide it from you."

Shen Mingjun was quite enlightened this time: "Dad understands you. Since it was left by that old man, you should keep it away. We cannot use it for public use."

"It's nothing. Isn't it okay for me to study now? I can't use the money for the time being. Dad will use it first. As long as we can start the business, will it be better to ask him to sit in the teahouse when the old man comes back?"

Chen Xi looked at her cheap father and said in an encouraging tone, "I asked Aunt Sun that she is now renting a shameless person on the street, and only two taels of silver per month will be enough if she cuts the price. If she doesn't have a bargain, the price will be lower. Just clean up a little, find someone to make tables, chairs, benches, and hire someone to spend it. It seems that six or seven taels of silver should be enough."

"this"

Shen Mingjun hesitated a little. He originally intended to make a name for himself and let those who talk about it shut up, but he was very worried that he could not make a fortune without capital. But if he put all the money in, the business was not good at that time, it would be like losing all his money. If he lost his wife and his army, he would lose face.

"Lang, this business is really good?" Shen Mingjun looked at Chen Xi with suspicious eyes and asked.

Chen Xi smiled and said, "Even if my father doesn't believe me, he should believe that old man is. When the old man left, he left some books to deal with the official, but now it is the most appropriate to use them for us to do business."

"Last year, the old man just left the Yang family and made the people in the county be intoxicated. There were so many people in the streets. If there were any similar stories, the money would enter the pocket like flowing water. Wouldn't my dad be moved?"

Shen Mingjun felt very excited when he heard this. The key was that Chen Xi's words were too provocative. It seemed that as long as the shop was opened, it would be half successful.

Finally, Shen Mingjun looked heavy: "Then I will listen to you this time. We are both good at doing business well, don't let others look down on you, we rely on women to live a life."

Chen Xi responded, but felt a little dissatisfied.

I think it is clearly my father who is looked down upon, but I don’t think it’s nothing. I have a child and I can’t support my mother? But for my father who is the main labor force in the family, the lethality of those rumors is a bit too great.

The father and son agreed to run a teahouse because Shen Mingjun was very busy working in the Wang family on weekdays, so Shen Xi would do the business of inquiring about the shop.
