"Earn three thousand taels a year?" Xiao Jing's eyes were as wide as bells: "Is your father crazy? Do you have what it takes?"
The ambition brought by anger and self-esteem also has a time limit. Shaoning, who was full of passion just an hour ago, is like a deflated rubber ball, and his face is almost drooping to the ground: "He said that as long as I can do it
, just stop interfering with me and Yuxian’s affairs, is it okay if I don’t agree?”
Hong Yu's name is Su Yuxian. With her beauty and appearance, she will probably become Mingyue Tower's cash cow in a few years. If Shao Ning redeems her, Shao Yuanwai should have a lot of "blood".
For those with money and wealth, three thousand taels is really not much. When we were chatting just now, Shao Ning also mentioned that the price of tea at the Mingyue Building where Hongyu is located costs several taels, not to mention that "the young people in Wuling are fighting for their heads."
"He spends money like water.
However, three thousand taels is an astronomical figure for a poor guy like Xiao Jing who has just traveled through time. He looked at Shaoning sympathetically: "Do you still have any private money?"
Shao Ning beat his chest and said: "There are only a few coins left, and they are all used up to build the bridge."
Xiao Jing felt a chill on his back. He thought that the rich second generation he picked up could at least feed himself, but he didn't expect that he was just a freeloader!
Now that the matter has come to this, there is no point in being sad. He coughed lightly, shook his head and pretended to be Zhuge Kongming, except that he didn't have the feather fan in his hand: "I have three strategies: upper, middle and lower. Take a look, sir..."
"Say, say it quickly!" Shaoning was like a drowning man who finally caught a piece of driftwood. He still had some confidence in Xiao Jing's magic.
Xiao Jing smiled mysteriously: "The best thing is to cook the raw rice into cooked rice. As the saying goes, a mother is more valuable than her son. When she gives birth to the eldest grandson of the Shao family, what else will your father say?"
"No, no, no." Shao Ning shook his head like a rattle: "I really like Yuxian, so naturally I want to marry her with three matchmakers and six betrothals. How can I get married without ceremony?"
Xiao Jing's throat felt sweet, and he almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood. You, a young romantic and a regular at the entertainment venue, actually said something about "indecent marriage" to me. How could you make me, a new single from the Da Rui Dynasty, embarrassed?
There should be a good girl waiting for me in this world, right?
There was no time to dwell on self-pity. Xiao Jing sighed: "As for Zhong Ce, you have a lot of friends. Those who can hang out with you must be rich people, and there are quite a few who have to throw away hundreds of taels for a night out. You go and find them.
Each of them will borrow two to three hundred taels, and then give it directly to your father, and then slowly return it to them."
Although Shao Ning didn't quite understand what nightlife was, he still understood what Xiao Jing meant: "This is a good idea! Just wait for me for a while."
As soon as he finished speaking, he ran away happily. Maybe there were some acquaintances of his in this town.
After a while, Shaoning ran back dejectedly. Looking at his appearance, you knew that he must not have borrowed a penny.
No wonder Shao Yuanwai was not worried at all about him borrowing money. These group of friends are all good friends who can share the wealth but not the hardships. They are indispensable for playing and having fun together. If you want money, you can't count on them.
"Then let's talk about what to do." Xiao Jing shook his head and said: "In a few days, I will do something. If it is done well, it will not be difficult to earn three thousand taels of silver. If you really have no choice, you can just give it.
How about I start with you?"
Shao Ning, who looked solemn and solemn, said hurriedly: "I won't give in, I won't give in. Anyway, I am homeless, so it is better to be a dead horse as a living horse doctor. It doesn't matter if I can't make money, the worst is that Yuxian and I will wander around the world. If we don't
Just go back to Puhua Town."
I don’t know if he was just out of touch, or if he had thought it over completely: “Wherever a man goes, there are green mountains! Even without the Shao family, I can still do something great!”
Xiao Jing curled his lips disapprovingly. Do you want to run away? Okay, but what about Su Yuxian, who was sent to a nunnery by your father? She is under house arrest. Is it as easy as in the TV series to snatch someone away and elope?
The ideal is very full, but the reality is very skinny. Looking at the debris in the yard, he really is not in the mood to chat with Mr. Shao, who is staring straight at the sky and almost crying. This three-sided courtyard was used as a warehouse.
Yes, if we don't tidy up, there won't even be room for people to walk in the main room and the east and west wings.
Work has started!
Xiao Jing panted and moved things into the yard, but Shaoning didn't move the nest; Xiao Jing fetched water and threw a rag to wipe things, but Shaoning didn't move the nest; Xiao Jing used a broom to sweep away the dust and dirt, but Shaoning still didn't move the nest.
I have never seen such a lazy roommate!
Xiao Jing's heart stirred. Could this kid be tired of working the past two days, and would he deliberately put on airs to see my joke?
He threw down the broom and wanted to argue with Mr. Shao. As soon as he put on a righteous face, he heard a cooing cry from outside, followed by a man's wild laughter.
Shao Ning, who had been "observing the eyes, the nose, the nose and the heart" as an old monk, suddenly opened his eyes and rushed out. Xiao Jing was choked back when he spoke.
Outside, a woman was surrounded by three gangsters. She wanted to take a detour, but someone kept blocking her way with a smile.
A man in rags spat out the straw stick in his mouth and said with a lewd smile: "Where is the little lady from? Her accent sounds like she's not from here. If you have nowhere to go, just go to my brother's house."
How about staying overnight? Although my house has drafty walls, there are plenty of beds, so it’s very convenient to do whatever you want.”
The three of them laughed again. The man standing next to the woman even put his hand towards her shoulder, but she pushed it away with force.
The girl's body was trembling slightly, and her clear eyes nervously glanced at the man in front of her with malicious intentions: "The slave family has a place to go. I don't care about you. Please don't embarrass the slave family."
She remained calm when she spoke, and her words were full of resistance; but her soft and sweet voice, like a warm breeze blowing on her face, could only produce the aesthetic feeling of "making people want to lie down and have a good dream".
But it has no deterrent effect at all.
"Are you here to find a job? That would be easier." A rogue rubbed his hands and said: "The little lady is so cute, she must be a female celebrity. But I don't know how to play the flute? If you don't know how, it doesn't matter.
You can learn how to serve the pillow mat. If your brother teaches you, are you afraid that you won't be able to learn it..."
As soon as the obscene words were spoken, the woman's face became even more angry. She suddenly ran two steps to get away from the rogue, but someone else caught up and blocked her.
"Little lady, don't leave in a hurry." The tallest man among the three said angrily: "Are my brothers so annoying to you?"
After saying that, with his eyes narrowed, he stretched out his hand to grab the woman's slender waist. The girl dodged away, but the other two people held her arms. She was a daughter, so how could she be the opponent of two grown men?
?
The three of them laughed ferociously and dragged her towards the woods outside the town. This place is located in the south of the town, and there are few pedestrians on the road. If there are no trucks passing by, it is a secluded place.
The young woman struggled hard, but as soon as she shouted "Help...", she was slapped by the thug, and the black hand that exuded a fishy smell was covered on her tender red lips.
"Let you scream! Don't worry, little lady, you will scream soon. Your voice is so nice, I will be interested in screaming harder later! Haha..."
The kidnapped girl did not give up, but her resistance was of no avail. Tears were already welling up in her eyes, but she held back the tears.
In broad daylight, in the clear sky, someone can actually do such a harmful thing? The opportunity for me to show off my talents has finally arrived!
Shaoning put his hands on his hips and gathered his energy in his Dantian: I'm having a bad day today. It's bad luck for you if you catch me! Come on, let me give you a "Vajra Zen Lion's Roar"!
Before he could yell, he heard someone nearby pulling his neck and shouting: "Stop!"
Chapter completed!
