Chapter 168 Gaofu

"Today is a good day... Everything you want can come true. Tomorrow will be a good day. Let us earn gold bars and earn~~~~"

Gao Bin was sitting on a rickshaw, holding a wooden box in one hand and humming a magic tune in his mouth. That was beautiful.

It's just a pain for Xiangzi. The young man was frightened today and hasn't recovered yet. Pulling a rickshaw was like pulling him out of a roller coaster.

If Gao Bin hadn't been in good physical condition, he would have suffered from motion sickness.

Finally arriving at the door of the house, Gao Bin asked Xiangzi to pull the car into the yard, lock the outer door, and then returned to the backyard carrying the two wooden boxes.

Xiangzi had been renting a house before, but now that he is with Gao Bin, he naturally has to take care of his food and accommodation.

The most indispensable thing in the yard is an empty house. I originally wanted to choose a better room for him, but Fang Fang is very sensible and actively asked to live in the reverse room, which is convenient for going out and can also serve as a concierge for Gao Bin.

Gao Bin didn't care. He let him live if he wanted. Anyway, he wouldn't be treated badly in terms of food, drink and treatment. He was a hard-working child.

After returning to his room, Gao Bin suddenly remembered the wooden box given by his fourth master, but he hadn't opened it yet.

I didn’t bother to change my clothes, so I pulled the copper lock on the wooden box and opened it, ‘hiss~~~’

"Fourth Master is mighty!"

Xiangzi, who had just parked the car and was boiling water in the kitchen in the front yard for wiping, heard such a sound coming from behind and couldn't help but mutter:

"Master, what's going on?"

What's wrong?

A total of 25 gold bars, a thick stack of banknotes that an average adult woman can’t hold in one hand, and an ocean wrapped in five bundles of red paper. How much does this cost?

Gao Bin had no idea for a while. Anyway, he was just very rich. He became famous in one battle and became rich overnight. Or the first pot of gold was stained with blood. Poor Zhang Cheng.

In fact, if Zhang Cheng hadn't beaten the fourth master's people so hard in the first two games, which made him look very powerful, the fourth master wouldn't have been so generous.

The only regret is that whether it was given by Fourth Master or Boss Sun, they were all small gold bars, also known as the legendary 'little yellow croaker'.

But he is not greedy, even if it is a small yellow croaker, it will be enough for him to use for a while.

No, he had to have an idea, so he put down the wooden box and rushed out without locking the door. Anyway, there was no third person in the yard.

"Xiangzi? Xiangzi?"

Gao Bin shouted when he came to the front yard.

"Hey, Master, what are your orders here?"

Xiangzi came out of the kitchen wearing a baggy rag.

"Let me ask you, how much can a small yellow croaker be exchanged for now?"

Xiangzi said without hesitation:

"Master, it depends on where you go to exchange it. Some places can exchange it for 35 yuan, and some places can only exchange it for 30 yuan, but it's basically within this range."

Gao Bin's mind was spinning. He got a total of 38 small goldfish today, so he could exchange them for at least 1,140 yuan.

If I remember correctly, Uncle Lu, the people's thinker, bought a courtyard house with 32 rooms for over 3,500 oceans.

If you add in those other oceans and banknotes, can you earn half a set of courtyard houses in one battle?

Hiss~ This ability to make money is a bit too scary.

"Master? Master?" Xiangzi couldn't help but feel uneasy when he saw Gao Bin's uncertain expression.

"Ah? Oh, it's okay. You can go to bed quickly. You've worked hard today. By the way, whoever sees it has a share. I'll reward you with these two pieces of ocean."

"Ah? No, no, no, Master, you have already given me my salary."

"Take it, consider it a bonus, a reward for protecting the Lord wholeheartedly."

This was not a name he made up casually. Xiangzi's performance today really made him very happy.

In the early days of the Republic of China, two oceans were worth a lot of money. Now, one ocean is enough to buy a delicious meal of mutton-boiled meat, and the purchasing power has dropped sharply.

But for the people living at the bottom, save your money, these two pieces of ocean are enough to last for a week.

Gao Bin gave Xiangzi a salary of 15 yuan a month, which was much more than what he earned working outside. Coupled with rewards from time to time, Xiangzi became more and more hopeful as the days passed.

"Thank you, Master, thank you, Master!"

"Just rest."

Gao Bin waved his hand, thinking that he would have to find two maids to take care of his daily life. He has never been a person who wronged himself. As long as he has money, he will definitely find ways to improve his life.

Not only a maid, but also a steward. Although the two yards at the front and back don't seem to be very big, there are definitely a lot of things to do. Xiangzi is not a steward, so he can only pull a cart and support the house.

Be more of a concierge.

After thinking about it all the way back to the room, Gao Bin hid the gold bars in the closet. Unfortunately, he didn't have much storage space, so it was not safe to put them at home.

He is not a person who has never seen money. He calmed down after being a little excited for a while. He simply wiped himself off and went to the kang to rest. He will arrange the manpower at home tomorrow.

With these and other thoughts, I fell into a deep sleep and slept until dawn.

...

When Gao Bin woke up early in the morning, before he even opened his eyes, he heard someone knocking on the door.

"Master, Master, are you awake? Come out quickly, people giving gifts are lined up outside."

Gao Bin got up from the kang in excitement, put on a coat and went to open the door:

"What's going on?"

"I don't know either, young master. I heard some movement outside before dawn. I got up and took a look. There were people standing outside carrying various gifts.

I wanted to invite people in, but no one came in. I just left my things behind and left, and by the way, I even left an invitation."

Gao Bin probably understood what was going on. It must have been that yesterday's incident had spread, and the big shots in Forty-Nine City wanted to get to know this martial arts hero.

It’s not that we have a relationship, but if we become familiar with each other, and if we meet each other in public in the future, and say hello to each other, won’t we gain face?

After wanting to understand what was going on, Gao Bin lost interest in receiving the reception in person, so he ordered Xiangzi:

"Go ahead and say hello, accept the gifts, be polite, and record the gifts from everyone. I can use them later."

"Okay, Master, then you..."

"I will go out through the back door in a moment. There are too few people available at home. I have to find a few."

When Xiangzi heard this, not only was he not unhappy, but he was happy and at ease. He knew that he was just a rickshaw puller, and asking him to deal with people was like asking a butcher to play cotton.

...

Gao Bin changed his clothes, slipped out of the back door, and went to the breakfast stall outside first to get a bowl of wontons. The skin was thin and the fillings were big. The bone-drained old soup was delicious. A bowl like this was served steaming hot, and he wouldn't be hungry all day long.

of.

After eating, Gao Bin hailed a rickshaw and went straight to Fourth Master's mansion.

The old man hasn't woken up yet, and the person who receives him is the old housekeeper.

"Master Gao, have you had breakfast? The small kitchen made pea yellow and mung bean cake. You won't get tired of eating them this season."

Gao Bin, who was already full, suddenly felt an appetite after hearing these two snacks.

He was not polite to them and nodded:

"I had breakfast, but now I'm hungry again. Please give me a few bucks."

The old housekeeper smiled slightly:

"You can try a few pieces first, and when you leave, I'll ask the kitchen to wrap them up for you and take them back to eat slowly."

"Okay, thank you."

"Master Gao, you're welcome."

After the old butler personally served snacks and a pot of jasmine flowers, Gao Bin stopped him and refused to let him go:

"What's your surname, sir?"

"I don't dare to call you a noble character. My surname is Wang. Master Gao can just call me Butler Wang."

"Okay, Steward Wang, I want to ask you something. There were a lot of gift-givers here early this morning. I can't handle it all by myself, so I wanted to find a steward and two maids to help me.

Taking care of housework..."

The housekeeper must learn to listen to the strings and know the music. Before Gao Bin finished speaking, he understood the other party's intention.

"By coincidence, I have a distant cousin who has been managing affairs for a wealthy family. Not long ago, that family moved to Xiangjiang, and all the servants were laid off. My cousin is worried about not having a job."<

/p>

Gao Bin slapped his thigh:

"It's better to come early than to come late. Where is your cousin? Can you call him and let me see him?"

"Master Gao, don't worry. You eat and drink first. I'll send someone to call for you. A pot of tea will arrive in time."

"Sure, then I'll be waiting here."

"You're too kind."
