She always wanted to be my cash machine
Chapter 2
After several days, Gu Yanchuan was finally able to move around freely.I got out of bed and wanted to find a mirror to see the original owner's face, but after looking around, there was not even a bronze mirror.He opened the curtain and walked out the door.
It was a cold January winter day, and outside the house was a small courtyard, piled up with sundries, firewood for fire and a large bronze tank for water storage.
Gu Yanchuan walked over, lifted the wooden cover on it, and using the water as a mirror, he found that the face of the original owner was five or six points similar to his own, but looked more delicate: a fair face with sharp edges and corners, and a pair of peach blossoms Eye.According to Gu Yanchuan's visual observation, his height is about eight feet, but recently his hoarse voice has receded, and it is as smooth and bright as pearls walking on a jade plate. I really want to boast that I am a handsome and tall young man!The only problem is that this boy is too poor!Gu secretly sighed.
Gu Yanchuan looked around, the family members seemed to have gone out, so he wanted to go out for a walk to see if he could find a way to make money.
"Squeaky" Gu pushed open the big chaimen that had been in disrepair for a long time. This was the first time he came to this ancient time to go outside to look at the ancient streets.According to his memory, the original big house of the family had been sold long ago, and the family still needed to find work in the town, so they rented this old house from Gu's father's old friend.This house is located on the edge of the outskirts of the town, but fortunately, it is only a few miles away from the more prosperous West Street District, and it takes about a quarter of an hour to walk there.
Gu Yanchuan was walking on the road, seeing all kinds of ancient people passing by with his own eyes, he was inevitably curious and looked around.The closer you are to West Street, the more people will flow. When Gu Yanchuan saw the archway with West Street written on it from a distance, he could already hear the yelling of hawkers in his ears.
When I walked in, I found that there were teahouses, restaurants, various grocery stores, pastry shops, etc. for passing merchants on the side of the avenue.As the New Year is approaching, there are all kinds of stalls along the street on the avenue, and the types are more complicated.Gu Yanchuan couldn't help thinking to himself: The business in this small town is so prosperous, which shows that the Great Zhou Dynasty really paid attention to business development.
When Gu Yanchuan was looking around, he accidentally found an interesting stall - selling couplets and New Year pictures, and the business was still booming.The stall owner was also a young guy, Gu Yanchuan squeezed into the crowd and asked, "Brother, how many pairs of couplets and New Year pictures are there?"
When the man saw the business coming, he smiled happily, "This couplet costs ten pennies, and this year's painting is twenty pennies."
Gu Yanchuan was a little shocked. The meat here only costs about ten yuan a catty, and the price of the couplets and New Year pictures can be sold so high.In fact, it is not difficult to understand that there are many small businesses in Tingli Town, and their living standards are relatively high. Eating and drinking is not a problem. At that time, Spring Festival couplets and New Year pictures are very popular.
The man looked at Gu Yanchuan's shocked expression, thinking that he disliked the high price, and hurriedly explained: "Young master, this is from the hand of a scholar in the academy, look at the words, look at the painting! The price is worth it! "
The customer next to him also helped and said: "It's really good! It's almost Chinese New Year, and I hope there will be a good sign in the coming year!"
Regardless of whether the price was worth it or not, Gu Yanchuan only had a few copper coins from Gu's mother on his body, so he had no choice but to thank him, and got out of the crowd, but he had an idea in his heart.Thanks to Papa Ma, during the Chinese New Year, he scanned blessings every day. He had nothing to do, so he practiced various ways of writing blessings. In addition, he has now integrated the memory and skills of the original owner. Writing Spring Festival couplets and blessings will definitely make people happy. He made a fortune years ago.
Thinking of this, he quickened his pace, went to the bookstore first, bought red paper with the remaining money, and hurried home.
At home, Gu Yanchuan rummaged through boxes and cabinets to find pens, inks, papers and inkstones.
Just in time for Gu's mother to come back home, seeing his anxious look, he thought something happened, so he hurriedly asked, "Shiro, what are you looking for?"
Gu Yanchuan raised his head, "Aniang, do you know where my pen and inkstone are hidden?"
"What are you looking for?"
Gu Yanchuan told his mother about his plan.Mother Gu was both happy and sad. She was happy that her Shiro had finally come out, but sad that her talented son would never be able to take the imperial examination again.Forget it, children and grandchildren have their own blessings!Gu's mother adjusted her mentality and smiled, "You wait, Auntie will take it out for you."
After getting the pen and ink, Gu Yanchuan first typed up the manuscript on the sandy ground in the yard, and wrote out all kinds of blessing characters in his memory.Because of his limited budget, the copper coins he owns are only enough to buy a few pieces of red paper plus some red paper in his home, which may only be enough to write blessings, so Gu Yanchuan plans to sell blessing characters tomorrow.
After he became proficient in the technique, Gu Yanchuan cut the red letters into squares one by one, and wrote several sheets of each type of blessing. After writing all the red paper in his hand, Gu Yanchuan got a total of 48 blessings. Character.
During dinner, Gu Yanchuan shared his thoughts with his family.
Gu's father was very supportive, "During this time, the business should be good. There are many people selling Spring Festival couplets and paintings on this street, but it is rare to see people selling blessings. Shiro, do you still need some money?"
Here, Gu Yanchuan hasn't answered yet, so Youshi will learn to answer quickly, "I'm afraid this time I will lose my wife and lose my army again!" Hearing this, Brother Gu gave Youshi a glance, and Youshi was unwilling to say goodbye. He closed his eyes and closed his mouth.
Seeing this, Gu Yanchuan shook his head, "Tomorrow, I'll go test the water first."
In the early morning of the next day, Gu Yanchuan brought the lucky characters bagged yesterday and a small wooden table to the market.All the good stalls are already occupied, so they can only choose to put a table in the last space of the market.
There were many people coming and going, but Gu Yanchuan's stall was too inconspicuous, and it was difficult to attract others' attention.
Is kung fu really going to waste?How could Gu Yanchuan be reconciled!
He stood up and began to yell: "Fu Lai Fu comes to Fu Jinmen! Blessed every year!" "This year's Chinese New Year does not accept gifts, gifts only receive blessings!"
The foreign-style advertising slogan immediately attracted a large number of people to stop and watch, and the various blessing characters on the table immediately attracted people's attention.Gu Yanchuan not only wrote all kinds of blessing characters that he had never seen before, but also drew some images full of blessings. The price is low, only five cents a piece, with words and pictures.The most important thing is that the stall owner is good-looking. Gu Yanchuan's own appearance is the biggest attraction!
Moreover, Gu Yanchuan enthusiastically explained to the onlookers, "If you post a fortune at the gate, your luck will come. If you post a fortune in the back room, your luck will come! The coming year will be full of good fortune and wealth! Someone wants to come What about Zhang?"
The first aunt laughed until the flowers bloomed, and said in a loud voice, "Little boss, give me four cards! This next year, all the blessings will come to my house! Give me twenty coins!"
When the people next to you heard it, how could all the blessings go to your door, so they rushed to grab it!
"Boss, I want two!"
"Boss, where are mine?! Give me these two!"
Once the business started, more and more people came to buy it.Gu Yanchuan was surrounded by a crowd, and in less than an hour, all the 48 blessings he brought today were sold out.
The customers who didn't buy it looked disappointed, and asked again and again: "Little boss, are you still selling it tomorrow?"
Gu Yanchuan hurriedly replied to the customer: "I will come again. I will come a few days before the Chinese New Year."
After paying the bill, I got a total of 240 Wen. After deducting the cost of about 200 Wen, Gu Yanchuan actually earned [-] Wen this time. This is only one day!There is still about a month before the Chinese New Year. Although it may not be as good as it is today, it can help the family to have a good New Year.
After Gu Yanchuan took some money and went to the bookstore to buy red paper, he closed the stall and went home.
When Gu Yanchuan told his family about today's results, You Shi's choked expression made Gu Yanchuan feel better without realizing it.
He gave Gu's mother one hundred Wen and asked him to buy some delicious food for the family.
Mother Gu pushed the money back, "You keep it for yourself. There is still some money at home."
"Auntie, how can I not know the situation at home. Although my sister-in-law's words are harsh, I am indeed responsible for the change in the family. It's almost Chinese New Year, and I will buy something good for the family, just treat me as greedy!"
Gu's mother patted Gu Yanchuan's hand, and said slightly, "My Shiro has grown up! Auntie will go buy it in the afternoon. I'll give you extra meals in the evening! It's also good to keep that Youshi's mouth shut!"
In the evening, braised pork and scrambled eggs finally appeared on Gu's table.
Gu Yanchuan is not a person who likes to eat fatty meat, but this body seems to have not touched meat for a long time. Seeing this meat, smelling the smell of meat, his hands seem to want to pinch it uncontrollably, and Youshi even ate it early. ready.When Gu's father said "Let's eat", everyone started to bury their heads in the cooking, eating full of energy.
When Gu Yanchuan was lying on the bed full of wine and food, he thought to himself: Even in order to have enough food, he must work hard.
On the second day, Gu Yanchuan went to set up a stall on the street at the same time, and there were already customers waiting there.
Seeing that Gu Yanchuan had arrived, he rushed up to greet him, "The little boss is here! I arrived early! I want to choose a good-looking lucky character!"
Gu Yanchuan smiled, "The blessing characters I wrote are all beautiful." The youthful atmosphere filled his surroundings.
"Yes, yes, yes!" The customers also doted on Gu Yanchuan, and they all followed him.
Although it took a little longer to sell on this day, at noon, Gu Yanchuan also sold out the hundred sheets of blessings that he brought today, and transferred a total of 520 copies after excluding the cost!It has doubled from yesterday!
The business has been done for several days, and it has been going smoothly until the sixth day, when Gu Yanchuan was explaining to the customers, a group of people dressed as rich princes suddenly came and pushed the customers away.
"Yo yo yo, who is this?" the visitor asked to the side.
The people next to him responded immediately: "This is not Gu Daxiucai! Oh oh oh, now he is not even a scholar!"
Gu Yanchuan found out the relevant information about this person from his memory. This man was named Ma Chenghao. He used to be a classmate of Gu Yanchuan in the school. He was the only son of a wealthy local businessman. !Now that Gu Yanchuan was in trouble, he was very happy and couldn't wait to see how Gu Yanchuan was in trouble.
Seeing that Gu Yanchuan didn't respond, Ma Chenghao was very angry. He lifted his foot and kicked the table that Gu Yanchuan had placed, "You step on me!"
Following Wang Chenghao's friends, they stomped on the ground and rubbed the word "福" that fell on the ground.Gu Yanchuan's heart ached when he saw it, it was all money!He hurriedly squatted down, wanting to rescue him, but then he thought that the group of people kicked Gu Yanchuan, Gu Yanchuan lost his foothold, fell to the ground, broke his head, and blood flowed down his eyes.
Seeing this scene, Ma Chenghao was also a little nervous, but he put down his harsh words, "You set up a stall once, and we come to play once." After speaking, he took the group of people and left.
Gu Yanchuan patted his head, it seems that today's business is going to fail!And if these people come again in the future, business will not be easy.trouble!
It was a cold January winter day, and outside the house was a small courtyard, piled up with sundries, firewood for fire and a large bronze tank for water storage.
Gu Yanchuan walked over, lifted the wooden cover on it, and using the water as a mirror, he found that the face of the original owner was five or six points similar to his own, but looked more delicate: a fair face with sharp edges and corners, and a pair of peach blossoms Eye.According to Gu Yanchuan's visual observation, his height is about eight feet, but recently his hoarse voice has receded, and it is as smooth and bright as pearls walking on a jade plate.
