Chapter 83 Tian Xingjian

The next morning.

Laishun took Zhishunzhai's toothbrush and tooth powder, and was about to go to the east wing to scoop water and wash, but someone called outside.

When I opened the yard door, I saw that it was indeed a good job of Donghutong winery.

He saw him serve a small wine pot that was half a pound and smiled and said with apologies: "Come to the manager, this is the wine this morning."

Because Laishun’s current name is the chief manager, outsiders often respectfully call him “General Manager”—of course, if you are present at the same time with your father, you will have to be demoted to “Little General Manager”.

"Please go for a trip."

Laishun thanked him without sincerity, and ordered Shuangquan to wait outside the door. He went back to the house and took out an empty wine pot and handed it over with the broken silver.

"I would like to give you more money from yesterday's wine pot and wine. - Xu Shi [7:00 pm] Don't forget to send another pot. I haven't drunk two pots of your homemade loose wine recently, so I can't even sleep well."

"Thank you for coming to the head, thank you for coming to the head!"

Shuangquan thanked him very much, and patted his chest and promised that he would deliver it on time in the evening. Then he took the empty wine pot.

After he left, Lai Shun poured the newly sent loose wine into a liquor bag, which originally had a pot of it, and it was just half a bag.

At this time, Lai Wang also brought his toiletries out of the east room. Seeing Lai Shun pouring wine into his skin, he asked casually: "This is two cents of silver a day, and I don't know if it can be used at a critical moment."

"Didn't you say it?"

Lai Shun laughed and said, "I squeezed the woman's shortcomings, how dare she not listen to me? Besides, our family is not all pointing to her, at most it's just a filing."

"You don't say what's the disadvantage."

Lai Wang rolled his eyes at his son. He actually guessed something in his heart, but how could he, a father, take the initiative to provoke it?

Fortunately, I gave birth to a son. If I were a daughter, I was afraid that it would not be a glorious family, but a shame to the family.

The father and son squatted shoulder to shoulder outside the east wing door to wash. Soon, Xu also came out of the east wing and wiped his hands with an apron and said, "I steamed some egg custard, picked up the vegetables in the yard and made a chowder. The chicken soup left over yesterday was also hot. You can eat later before going to pay."

As he said that, he went to the main hall to change his clothes and left the yard in a hurry.

Lai Shun had just washed his face, and saw this and hurriedly chased after him for a few steps and shouted, "Mom, are you not going to eat again today?"

"I'm going to be on duty in the second deer top today. I'm too late to go there, and I'm afraid that the aunts and sisters will talk again - don't worry about me, I'll make up for it in the mansion."

"Then you drink more water and don't get angry."

"I can save it."

After seeing off my mother, I went back to the east wing to have a good meal with my son, and fed the leftovers to the dog next door, and then I left the house with my wine bag.

When we arrived at the west entrance of Ningrong Street, Laiwang turned to the east.

Laishun continued to go north and entered Xingrong, the west corridor, and arrived at the entrance of a alley. He saw that there was no one on the left and right, so he threw the wine bag in.

There was a strong man in a straw hat waiting in the alley. He caught the wine bag with one hand and then left empty-handed.

Lai Shun was different from his conversation. He turned around and turned back to the West Street intersection with his empty wine bag, heading east to the corner gate of Rongguo Mansion.

About a quarter of an hour later, the special carriage galloped away.

There are three newly opened tire shops in the capital, one in the outer city and two in the inner city. The shops in the outer city are located near Dongbianmen; one in the inner city is located in Dongsi Pailou and the other is adjacent to Shichahai Dragon King Temple.

What I want to go to today is Shichahai’s shop.

When I passed by the Dali Temple Yamen with my back to Shichahai, I happened to encounter someone in front of me who blocked the road and complained about the injustice, so I had to take a detour halfway through.

So when we arrived at the shop, the shopkeepers and the guys had been waiting for most of the hour.

However, no one dared to show his dissatisfaction.

He flattered his shoulders, and the stars held the moon and welcomed him in.

Before entering the door, Laishun stopped deliberately and looked up at the sign covered by red silk. Because it was just a false cover, it was not difficult to distinguish the gold-plated characters on it:

Heaven moves vigorously.

This is the store name that Jia Zheng personally decided. One is the literal meaning of "Xingjian"; the other is the implicit encouragement of self-improvement.

but……

Even if he relies solely on his official positions that his ancestors have protected, he would be embarrassed to say, "Heaven moves hard, and a gentleman strives for self-improvement."

Pressing down the contempt in his heart, Laishun then stepped into the store.

Because it was a hasty renovation, there is no big difference between this tire shop and the ordinary seller.

The only difference is that Laishun specially ordered people to praise the many benefits of pneumatic tires in the form of comic strips.

It also involved the relationship between Xia Taizu and Xia Taizu spared no expense to buy rubber tree species from thousands of miles away.

After all, recently, Xia Taizu's far-sighted vision has been hotly discussed on the streets and alleys, and he will not take advantage of his enthusiasm...

Uh ~

If you don’t pay tribute to him, wouldn’t it be a fellow villager?

But when I entered the store, I saw two people standing up at the "Checkout Area" when I was approaching me.

One of them is He San.

This is not surprising. Because he refused to follow him to Guangdong and Guangxi, he was in a downturn after his godfather Zhou Rui left. Recently, he has somehow cursed with Xue Pan again and often accompanied Xue Datou to the shop.

But the other person present was not Xue Pan.

This man is about twenty-five or twenty-six years old. He is also a servant of Rongguo Mansion, but he wears jade on his waist and holds a folding fan on his hand. It is obviously not an ordinary servant.

“Yo~”

When He San saw Laishun, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him and said, "The Lai Master has arrived. Come on, I will introduce you to you two. This is the young master of General Lai."

Then he said to Mr. Lai: "This is the chief shopkeeper of the three tire shops, Lai Shun Lai."

He deliberately called Laishun the general palm, obviously to separate the future Shun from Lai.

"Young Master Lai?"

Lai Shun was a little surprised when he heard this. Didn’t Lai Da’s son break free from slavery since he was a child and even passed the exam for fame?

How...

"It was my brother Shang Rong who left his home."

The young master Lai saw Laishun’s doubts and took the initiative to introduce: “Mu Rong is the second son in the family.”

It turned out to be Lai Da’s youngest son.

Lai Shun nodded suddenly and asked again: "Mr. Lai came to this tire shop, is it because Manager Lai had something to explain?"

Lai Murong hurriedly said, "The shopkeeper misunderstood. I came here with Young Master Chou today and had nothing to do with my father."

Come with Xue Pan?

Tsk ~

Recently, the Lai family has been obedient and never thought that they would have had a secret relationship with Xue Pan.

These two things are in harmony, aren’t they holding up some bad water?

He became more vigilant and said wonderingly: "Where has Master Chou gone? Could it be that he checked the warehouse in the backyard?"

"this……"

Lai Murong looked at He San with some embarrassment on his face, and he looked at him as if he wanted help.

He San had no taboos and laughed: "Didn't this be heard that there was a beautiful woman complaining in the street at the entrance of Dali Temple? Master Chou went to preside over justice."

Lai Shun: "..."

He presided over a ghost's justice!

Forget it, this fool is not making trouble by the side, and he is still more peaceful.

So he said, "Then I won't bother Master Biao for now - Manager Li, have you drafted the charter for the reservation discount that will be implemented on the first day of next month?"

The shopkeeper Li hurriedly said, "It has been drafted, because there are many officials in our area, I will follow your wishes..."

"Let's wait!"

Lai Murong suddenly interrupted Manager Li's report and frowned: "Although this is where the chief officer is in charge, the young master has different identities after all, so I'm afraid it's not easy to surpass him, right?"

It's really here to make trouble!

Lai Shun glanced at him speechlessly, and said that Aunt Xue had made an explanation openly and asked herself to let go of Xue Pan.

As soon as this guy got upset, Xue Pan became the most respected in the tire shop.

However, in name, Xue Pan's identity as half of the master's family is indeed higher than that of his own foreign manager of Rongfu.

It was hard to find out the matter clearly, so he asked back, "If Master Chou doesn't come, will this job be delayed forever?"

"Young Master Chou is just watching the fun. I guess he will not be able to go back soon..."

"Where are people? Where have they died?!"

Lai Shangrong's mouth seemed to be shining. As soon as he talked about Xue Pan, Xue Datou shouted outside: "Everyone is searching the guy and following me, those prisoners have moved their weapons!"

[Lai Shangrong's younger brother comes from the 117th chapter of the book. The original text is as follows: The Lai family said: "Although my brother was a county magistrate, he was afraid he would not be able to protect his behavior.
