I want to be a good person

"Sir, you are here. What would you like to drink?"

The guy was very diligent. As soon as he saw someone coming in, he said some nice words for free.

Seeing that the other person was about to mumble non-stop, I quickly spoke up to stop him.

"Give me a pot of Jasmine Gao Sui."

I sat down and took a look. I saw that this was a meat shop. The words "wine and tea" were pasted on the cabinet, and there were large wine jars.

After estimating the number of tea drinkers, it seems to be declining. The heyday was in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China.

I'm too lazy to pay attention to the tea drinkers chatting. I'll first see if there's a small leader. Those who do the work and take the blame are the lackeys. Anyone with a little power will regard himself as a superior.

I guess even those who go to higher-end places don’t have the money, and the Japanese are pretty stingy.

"Here you go, sir, your tea is here."

"What else would you like to order?"

The waiter was busy with the tea set with his hands, and his mouth was also busy.

"Yellow vegetables, braised beef, and a bowl of pork noodles"

"Okay, please wait a moment"

When Zhang Aiguo saw the time, he felt hungry because he had already digested his breakfast.

Now I am sitting in the corner, facing outwards, so I can just see what is happening on the opposite side. Even those who are on the lookout need to eat, so if you work hard, at least you will be given a meal.

After I finished my meal, I didn't see anyone coming out of Niu Dali's house.

While drinking tea slowly, the person chatting next to me almost finished talking about the Five Great Mountains.

Zhang Aiguo added two cups of high-foam tea, and the tea returned to its original color.

"People should be kind, honest and trustworthy. Forget it, just take care of yourself first."

"Let's go, let's go at night"

Now that I had made the decision, I stood up, paid the bill and prepared to leave.

It was reckless and careless. I originally wanted to have a younger brother.

But I can't blame myself. Even if I didn't give him money, he would have encountered this incident. This is an unreasonable age. If I wait for a while, something will probably happen. Ma Xiaoshu's vest will not be usable anymore.

The old man had no idea about learning martial arts from a master, and he was not a good person. Maybe it was his way of casting a wide net. In troubled times, he tried all kinds of ways to survive. If the place he lived in was two levels lower, he would not have had this opportunity.

As a human being, how can you make every word count in your life? There are always a few steps to take. Isn't it often said that it is difficult to be a good person? In fact, it is like a duck being forced into a shed, which is damn uncomfortable.

Don’t be like the kettle on the stove, whistling happily to entertain others even though its butt is burned red.

Zhang Aiguo comforted himself and walked quickly towards the First Hotel.

"Pack your things and go now. Let's go to Kouwai."

"So urgent"

"Well, it's boring to stay in Beiping all the time."

“I don’t think it’s that good either.”

"It's not the time of the Qing Dynasty or the early Republic of China"

The two chatted, then quickly packed up, checked out and got their money back.

The Golden Decade was the decade of the National Government. A lot of gold and silver were obtained. However, no matter how good the spring breeze was, it could not reach the common people. Natural disasters and man-made disasters continued, and it was a constant mess.

The common people eat mostly mixed noodles, sorghum rice, corn, cabbage stalks, steamed corn bread, and Kangcai pancakes. They are all struggling to survive.

In the previous life, the famous snacks of Peking were basically what poor people ate to improve their living standards. The poor people enjoyed them, but they suddenly became extremely expensive.

The streets are full of my competitors when I first arrived. The beggar industry is booming and people are trying their best to get in even without a regular job. From time to time, some people quit and fall silently on the roadside. I don’t know if they can catch the bus to reincarnation underground.

If I came to a big city where the competition is so fierce, I would probably fail on the same day.

The more you see it, the more you get used to it.

Outside the train station, there is a dirty stall on the roadside with a cloth on the top to provide shade and shelter from the rain, and it sells wontons.

The vendor's hands were flying, sometimes wrapping wontons, sometimes holding bowls.

"You should finish your wontons here. It's not a good idea to eat in the car."

"Um"

Zhao Xinyu nodded.

"Boss, a bowl of wontons, add a few more"

"Okay, wait a moment"

"Sir, you don't want to eat?"

“I ate before I came back.”

"You eat here, I'll go buy some food for the train"

"Don't go far"

"It's right next to it, see?"

Zhang Aiguo pointed to the stall selling halal cooked food.

Zhang Aiguo bought some sesame cakes and beef, and looked around, and saw that they were all occupied by businesses on the road.

"Hey, we have pipes for sale"

The standard equipment for handlebar-style riding is that even if you stick on a fake beard, you can't always smoke foreign cigarettes. No normal person can afford to smoke. Wearing a pipe on the waist is the model.

Zhang Aiguo put the food next to Zhao Xinyu and walked over.

The old man setting up the stall was very kind, with a smile on his face. He had a pipe in his hand and was smoking it vigorously.

"Sir, let me introduce them to you. I can tell you that they are all top quality."

"This is good. Look at it. It's made entirely of brass. Look at the flower. It's a symbol of wealth and good fortune."

"Hey, you think you're the landlord's stupid son."

Zhang Aiguo looked at the other person's honest smile. The big hand of time did not carve, but instead smashed out the vicissitudes of life.

I took the pipe and found it was indeed well made. The pipe bowl, mouthpiece and pipe were all made of brass with engraved patterns. It also came with a cowhide pipe bag with a copper gourd.

“Beautiful! Great craftsmanship!”

Zhang Aiguo sighed.

"I have been doing this for decades, since the Qing Dynasty. And this, take a look at it."

The old man handed over another one.

Zhang Aiguo took them, one in each hand.

"It has a jade cigarette holder, a copper pot and an old mahogany stem, and a jade-shaped cigarette holder and pouch. It's not ostentatious, but it looks classy. I only have one word for doing business: fairness. What do you think? Which one do you like?"

"How much?"

"I see you are a picky person, so I'll give you a fair price. The old copper one, which is this long, is more expensive, 1.2 yuan. The red rod one is cheaper, 8 yuan."

"A bit expensive"

"It's not expensive, sir. You get what you pay for. Those who buy from me are regular customers. Let's be repeat customers."

"This is also possible. Isn't it used for many years?"

"Reputation, I do business with integrity"

“Children also smoke pipes?”

"Children don't smoke. I still sell tobacco. Look, tobacco is also divided into grades. A business that deceives people will not last long."

"That's true"

"As for the price, I won't talk about it. I'll buy two and you can give me some tobacco."

"cut tobacco?"

The old man thought about it.

"Okay, but it can only be the lowest"

“Sure, I never choose free stuff.”

After handing over two dollars, the old man filled both pipes with some cut tobacco.

"Oh, sir, I see you are still young. If you smoke this, you will choke suddenly. Take your time and don't put too much. I still suggest you buy some good tobacco, the taste is different, and you should also clean the oil in the cigar box frequently."

"Thanks"

Zhang Aiguo thanked him sincerely. Although all businessmen are dishonest, today's businessmen still have a bottom line.

After buying it, I thought about it and realized that I still need to use the big Aconitum. The big rubber wheel is a bit advanced and expensive.

Now that we have food, what can we drink on the road?

Zhang Aiguo walked around the area but didn't find any kettle or anything, and he was at a loss for a moment.
