Chapter 42

After Zhang Er and his wife returned home, they didn't rest and went directly to Qingyu's house.

Qing Yu was preparing lunch with her senior brothers and sisters. When she saw Zhang Er and his wife coming again, she understood and gave the second senior brother a wink.

Shi'an understood and stepped forward to welcome the couple to sit down. However, the couple did not sit down, but knelt down with a plop.

Zhang Er held up a bunch of copper coins left over from the medicine and said, "Thank you, Master, for your advice today. Otherwise, my family would have been in serious trouble. It's a small thought that is disrespectful. I hope Master will accept it."

But Shi'an refused to accept it, "If I said I wouldn't take a penny, I won't take it. Please take the money back."

Zhang Er was a little embarrassed. In fact, he was not entirely grateful for saving his life, but...

He hesitated for a while, then pushed the money forward again, and then asked shamelessly: "May I ask, Master, what you said this morning...can you say it again, I...I didn't remember it."

"This..." Shi'an looked embarrassed.

Zhang Er was anxious and put the money into Shi'an's hand, "I only have so much, please tell me again, master."

Qingyu came over at this time and returned the money in Shi'an's hand to Zhang Er, "Otherwise, we won't take your money. My brother will tell you again, but if you really get rich, you

How about taking 40% of it and treating it as money for fortune telling?"

Zhang Eryi heard this and thought about it carefully. Even if he took out 40%, he still had 60% left. And the most important thing was that he had no losses. Even if the calculation was inaccurate and he couldn't make a fortune, he didn't need to pay for fortune telling.

, this is much better than those who are paid to read fortune-telling but are fooled and deceived.

He immediately nodded happily, "Okay, 40% should be."

Shi'an smiled fondly and glanced at Qingyu. As the head junior sister, he always had a lot of ideas when it came to money.

Shi'an told Zhang Er what he had said before.

Zhang Er could not help but forget that he memorized it in front of Shi An for a long time before he memorized it, and then left happily.

At this time, Qingyu said in a serious tone, "You will have as much wealth as you make. Don't ruin your wealth, otherwise you will suffer endless hardships in the future."

Zhang Er's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately put aside the little Jiujiu that had just popped up, and responded one after another.

After returning home, Zhang Er and Wei Shi began to think carefully about the meaning of the words. After pondering for a long time, Zhang Er suddenly had an idea in his mind and remembered a sentence:

"When the boy was telling fortunes in the morning, he said something before these words. He said, 'My fortune is in the southwest. I will go southwest when I go out at Shen Shi.' This means that I will go southwest when I go out today."

Wei thought for a moment, "How long will it take to go? How can we find the source of wealth?"

"Hai water is the root, and Shen and You are interdependent... If Shen refers to going out at Shen time, does it mean that it will be done when you go to You time or Hai time?" Zhang Er was a little excited.

"Since we are looking for the root of wealth, and the Hai water is the root, then I am afraid that I will go to the Hai hour?" Wei was not sure.

"I don't know, whatever, just go and try and you will know." Zhang Er looked at the sky and saw that it was still some time before Shenshi, so he asked Wei to lie down and rest while he went to boil the medicine. When Shenshi arrived, he went out

Gushu Alley, heading southwest.

An hour later, Zhang Er stopped. At this time, it happened to be the beginning of Youshi. The sky was actually very dark and there were fewer pedestrians on the road. Zhang Er walked around a few times and didn't see anything different until Youshi.

, thought for a while, and continued walking forward.

He walked for another two hours, walking straight until Zhang Er's calves were shaking, but thinking of the fortune, he gritted his teeth and endured it.

It was completely dark at that time, and there was not a single pedestrian on the road. Even though Zhang Er was a grown man, he still felt a little scared walking on the road in the middle of the night.

Will he really find wealth? Or is he missing out? In fact, it is enough to go to You hour? Or maybe he is not asked to stop at any time? Zhang Er is very unsure, but the sky has passed Hai hour. He

I stood there, not knowing what to do for a moment.

Just as he was thinking about whether to go back, he suddenly heard the cry of a horse. The cry was particularly clear in the middle of the night. Zhang Er thought about it and followed the sound, and then he saw a drunken man riding on a horse.

On his back, the horse refused to move, and the drunk man cursed and became very unhappy.

Zhang Er took a few steps forward.

When the drunk man saw him, he was delighted and said, "Oh, there is someone here at this late hour. Come, come, take me back." As he said this, he took out a silver coin from his arms and threw it to Zhang Er, "This is a reward for you.

of."

Zhang Er was surprised and happy. He picked up the silver and put it in his mouth to bite. It was real. He weighed it again and found that there was enough for one tael. He happily stepped forward and led the horse, "Where are you going, Master?"

"Zhengping Street." The drunk man pointed in one direction.

Zhang Er pulled hard on the horse's reins, and the horse followed him. The drunkard on the horse laughed, "This little beast refused to move no matter what I did just now, but now he is obedient."

Zhengping Street is not far away, it only takes two-quarters of an hour to walk.

Zhang Er helped the drunk man off his horse, and then helped the drunk man into a house. The servant soon came to pick him up, and the drunk man muttered drunken words. But when Zhang Er was about to leave,

The drunk man stopped him again and asked him if he could drive a carriage.

Zhang Er quickly answered, and the drunk man said that the original groom had gone back to his hometown and asked Zhang Er to take over the job.

The sudden errand made Zhang Er stunned for a moment. The drunkard said again: "For two yuan a month, you can come and do the work tomorrow."

Zhang Er was stunned for a long time. It wasn't until the drunkard walked away that he knelt down, kowtowed, and then went home happily.

Wei didn't sleep all night, and waited until the rooster crowed at the ugly time, and then waited until Zhang Er came back.

As soon as Zhang Er entered the door, he was hit with a chill, and his whole face turned red from the cold, but he was extremely happy, "I have found a job. Boss Chen's family on Zhengping Street asked me to work as a groom for him. I can earn a living in a month."

Two denarii."

When Wei heard it at first, he thought he had heard it wrong. After a while, he asked uncertainly: "Two dollars a month?"

"Yes." Zhang Er took out the money from his arms again and told Mr. Wei the cause and effect of the incident.

After hearing this, Mrs. Wei was so shocked that she couldn't open her mouth from ear to ear. After a while, she sighed: "That family is really amazing."

Early the next morning, Qingyu's family actively set up the tables, chairs and benches, and then Hongtao and Shi'an sat and waited for the guests to arrive.

Hongtao was in a very good mood. While waiting, she chatted with Shian, "Let's make a bet, guess how many people will come today? I guess... twenty people, it's just the beginning, there will definitely not be too many people, twenty

People should be about the same."

Shi'an thought for a while, "I guess ten people."

Hong Tao blinked his eyes, with a look of regret on his face: "You are indeed no longer the divine fortune teller Shi'an who charmed all the female Taoist disciples back then. But second senior brother, you can't be too arrogant as a person, even though you are a bit poorer now.

But you can't question your ability."

Shi'an smiled helplessly, got up and went to tie Qingyu's hair.

Hongtao said to Qingyu again: "Junior sister, head, can you guess how much money we can earn on the first day?"

Qingyu glanced at the dirt road and smiled slightly, but did not answer.

Hong Tao looked over and saw that Zhang Er and his wife were here.
