Chapter 42 Little Miser

 Chapter 42 Little Scrooge

It is a pity and congratulation that fast food can open up sales during this autumn hunting. If it operates for a long time, the family will have a stable income.

Now is a good opportunity. Take advantage of this autumn hunting to make a fortune. In the future, the long-term operating income will not be as large as it is now.

Zhang Yang said thoughtfully: "When I get my money back, I plan to open another store."

Why ask out of curiosity: "What store should I open?"

Zhang Yang said: "There are very few bookstores in Chang'an City. On weekdays, books are sold on the streets by book sellers, and the quality of the books and the content of the articles are somewhat different."

"Um……"

While the two were talking, they had already divided the money.

Why bother to stand up and say: "Then I will go buy ingredients first."

Zhang Yang urged: "Buy more, don't run out."

"understand."

After He Bi left, Zhang Yang took the heavy copper coins.

Fast food restaurants are selling well, and people in the Tang Dynasty are quite accepting of pork. At least the braised pork is very successful.

And he also accounted for 60% of it.

This is the first pot of gold in life.

At least it is the first pot of gold for starting a business.

Just looking at it makes me feel particularly dazzling.

The feeling of happiness in my heart is another step toward a well-off life.

Thinking of a better life in the future, Zhang Yang saw from the corner of his eye a small look with a hint of resentment in his eyes.

Taking a closer look, Zhang Yang said to Li Tai, "Huh? When did you come, Your Highness, King Wei?"

Li Tai's breathing was heavy, and the resentment in his eyes seemed to be turning into anger.

"I have been standing here for half an hour."

"Yeah?"

"you forgot?"

Zhang Yang cleared his throat and said, "His Royal Highness the King of Wei is too short. I really didn't notice."

Zhang Yang is very tall.

Li Tai sometimes needs to look up to see him, which is very tiring.

Especially Zhang Yang, who looked like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water, which made talking to him even more tiring.

Zhang Yang collected the copper coins and said, "His Royal Highness, King Wei, why are you still here?"

It feels very uncomfortable to be ignored.

Is he driving me away? Li Tai suddenly felt his teeth itching.

"Can't I be here?"

Li Tai is the king of Wei and the son of Li Shimin.

At least no one in Chang'an City dared to provoke him.

Zhang Yang stood up and said, "His Royal Highness, King Wei, please help yourself. I will leave first."

"Wait!"

Li Tai called to Zhang Yang, "I heard last night that your shop was doing very well, so I came to see you today."

"Then you see it now?"

Li Tai looked up at Zhang Yang, "Do you dislike me?"

Zhang Yang smiled dryly and said, "How dare you? How dare you."

"Why can your store make so much money?"

"A unique vision, when you encounter a good opportunity, plus enough delicious food."

"..."

Li Tai's twisted little face was thinking.

Zhang Yang said: "Does His Highness the King of Wei admire me now but doesn't want to admit it?"

Seeing Zhang Yang walking out of the room, Li Tai followed him, "Why don't you want to become an official in the court?"

Zhang Yang was walking on Zhuque Street and said, "I haven't studied for a few years."

Li Tai had short legs and it was difficult to keep up with him. "You haven't studied for a few years. Can you solve the math problems of the Tubo people?"

It felt very uncomfortable to be followed by this little fat guy, especially since his mouth was quite broken.

"What a coincidence."

"Is it just a coincidence that you solved both problems?"

Zhang Yang stopped and looked back at Li Tai, "I asked you whether you are done or not."

Li Tai raised his head and said, "Have you really never thought about becoming an official in the court?"

Zhang Yang said: "I am at odds with being an official."

After Zhang Yang was about to leave, Li Tai struggled to follow and said, "What are you going to do now?"

"I want to get rid of you now. It's best if we never have anything to do with His Highness King Wei in the future."

"If you want to be an official, come to me anytime!"

Li Tai's shout came from behind.

Let alone being an official, it is not a good thing to get too close to someone like King Wei.

After buying some meat and vegetables at the market, Zhang Yang returned home.

Li Yue looked at the large amount of money that Zhang Yang took out, and opened her mouth in surprise, and her mouth became O-shaped.

"You stopped lying to fools and started robbing instead?"

Li Yue whispered.

Zhang Yang washed the meat and vegetables he just bought and said, "I earned it from my shop."

Li Yue quickly collected the money, then picked up the small shovel and started digging holes in the yard, looking around from time to time for fear that someone would see him.

"What are you doing?"

"Bury the money."

Li Yue's little face was a little red from digging hard.

After digging the small hole, Li Yue wrapped all the coins and put them in the hole and then covered it with soil again.

After she finished, she patted the mud on her little hands, put the chair on the newly covered soil, and sat down comfortably.

Unexpectedly, she also has the demeanor of a little miser.

Zhang Yang said: "What, can you take some out first? I may have to spend money for it tomorrow."

Li Yue turned her head and said, "No! You can't take it out if you bury it. Save money to build a good house."

"Really, I really need to spend money tomorrow."

"That's not OK."

The next day, Zhang Yang came to the post house again, and He Bi arrived on time, and the two began to divide the money.

It always makes people feel happy when they sit on the floor and share money.

"Bang!"

The door was kicked open again.

Seeing this familiar little chubby man, Zhang Yang found that his heart was unmoved, and he didn't know whether His Highness the King of Wei would compensate.

After the two of them divided the money, Zhang Yang counted the twenty-three guan he had received. If this continues, he will soon be able to get his money back.

Li Tai stared at Zhang Yang.

The King of Wei was here, so why didn't he dare to stay for a long time? He divided the money and hurriedly went to buy goods.

Zhang Yang collected the account books and money and asked, "Why is His Royal Highness the King of Wei looking at me like this?"

Li Tai whispered: "Why can't the store I open make money?"

Looking at Li Tai curiously, Zhang Yang whispered: "I didn't expect King Wei to open a shop?"

Li Tai said: "The bookstore you mentioned yesterday was opened by someone after I separated from you yesterday. Not a single book was sold in one day."

Due to the limitations of printing technology, books circulating in the Tang Dynasty were mainly handwritten books.

When a bookstore opens, people would rather buy handwritten books or copy them themselves than go to a specialized bookstore to buy them.

Moreover, there is a big disadvantage of opening a bookstore. People will leave after reading it, or they will rely on their extraordinary memory to write it down.

Or if I copy it in front of you, I won’t buy it at all.

Li Tai said with a dark, fat face: "I spent 600 yuan to buy a shop, but now I have lost all my money."

Zhang Yang said cryptically: "Yesterday I said that I wanted to open a bookstore. At that time, I just mentioned it casually, but later I thought it was not appropriate."

"..."

"His Royal Highness the King of Wei doesn't think that just opening a shop can make money."

"..."
