Celestial grabs dog food

Chapter 6

……

When it was dark, Brother Chen led more than a dozen men into a small house near the pier, and it was time to settle their wages.

After everyone left one after another, Liu Datie came out clutching his chest.

"Father, how is it?" Gou Sheng greeted him and asked in a low voice.

"There are 37 copper coins!" Liu Datie looked around several times before he came to Gousheng's ear and replied with a smile.

Gou Sheng smiled and nodded, but he didn't feel happy in his heart. It costs two copper coins to stay in Jiaxing City for one night, and a thick noodle bun is one copper coin, which is a circle smaller than Qingpu Town. It's not like there's so much work on the pier every day...

Sure enough, Liu Datie started to feel pain right away—a small side room where he could barely turn around, and there were a lot of sundries piled up in it, which cost two copper coins to live in for one night. Son.

"Ahem, ahem...I'm so sorry..."

A thin man panted and apologized repeatedly, trying to tidy up, but he was coughing and wheezing, and he could hardly move a chair with missing legs.

"Father, go back and lie down. If you cough up blood, you'll have to spend money again!" A thin boy who was about the height of Gousheng walked over with a sullen face, and quickly put together several objects of about the same height. , "Let's just make it!"

Liu Datie stood at the door a little at a loss.

Even the weak man was taken aback, stood aside stiffly, and called out embarrassingly, "Shan Guan!"

The boy named Shanguan tidied up a little bit twice, looked back and forth between Liu Datie and Gousheng a few times, and stretched out his black hand like a bird's claw, barely poking Gousheng's nostrils. , "Two pennies!"

Goushengtou involuntarily tilted his head back, and hurriedly bumped Liu Datie with his elbow, signaling to pay quickly...

"Where are the two copper coins, son... Just find a place to shrink and go, the food money for the day..." Liu Datie unfolded the tattered mattress and muttered, "Tomorrow we will spend the night somewhere at the pier... "

"Father, there are thieves! If idlers are not allowed to stay on the pier!" Gou Sheng pointedly looked at Ken Liu's chest.

Liu Datie shrank, pressed his chest where the money bag was placed, and said nothing.

A good night's sleep, although my lower body is a little bit, and my stomach is not very solid!

"Father, give me ten, oh, five copper coins, okay?" Gou Sheng said hesitantly after wrapping up the things.

"What? What do you want so much money for?" Liu Datie asked in surprise.

Five copper coins is not a small amount of money to most families in Liushutun, at least not easily with a child.

"I'm useful! Dad, please lend it to me first, and I promise I won't spend it indiscriminately!"

Liu Datie touched and felt in his arms, gritted his teeth and counted four copper coins and came out, "This is money for two nights of sleep. If you spend it, I will listen to my father. Let's find a place to spend it." Boil it!"

Gousheng nodded, and gave Liu Datie a grateful look—this is the biggest difference between this honest farmer and the men in Liushutun, "Father, don't worry, I will pay you back at night, mother and younger siblings." You are still at home waiting for us to take the money back! I won’t make trouble for you!”

Liu Datie patted Gou Sheng's head, and after confirming that the purse was put away, he hurried towards the pier.

Gou Sheng held a few copper coins in his hand for a long time before going out.

"Um--"

Gousheng turned his head abruptly, and the boy named Shanguan was standing less than ten meters away from him, neither dodging nor dodging; Gousheng quickened his pace, and the kid also quickened his pace, Gousheng stopped even if he stopped—fair and fair Tracking - Gou Sheng shook his fist at him, and decided not to worry about this issue for the time being.

"Master, my father asked me to make one..."

Gousheng gesticulated what he needed while the master carpenter was free, and described it to him, then quickly found several pieces of discarded wood on the ground and piled them in front of the carpenter, looking up at the master " Hehe" laughed straight, "No need to consume materials!"

The master carpenter slapped Gousheng on the head, and quickly ordered a two-step wooden step.

"Take it!"

When Gou Sheng was courting the master carpenter in the shop, Shan Guan stood guard at the door, looking straight in.

"Hey!" Gou Sheng held the wooden steps that cost three Wen in his arms with one hand, and when he left the shop, he pushed the mountain official hard, "Why are you following me?"

Shan Guan gave Gou Sheng a cold look, "I want you to take care of it!"

"Hmph!" Gou Sheng exhaled forcefully from his nose, hugged the wooden steps, and trotted all the way to Dongshikou.

For the real dignitaries in Jiaxing City, there are naturally big shopkeepers who bring young men to serve the ladies and ladies in person. Officials of the first rank, eighth rank, and even the lowest grades can't get much money. The whole family lives only on their salaries, and their daily expenses may be even tighter than those of the big shopkeepers of the shop. For the company, this Dongshi is dedicated to doing business with this kind of people.

Most of these petty officials’ families couldn’t afford a carriage, and the female relatives relied on hiring a carriage when they went out. Naturally, they didn’t have many servants, so there was always some inconvenience—what Gousheng wanted to do was the “business” of such families.

Naturally, the East Market is not like a big shop dedicated to the nobles. If the carriage enters, the female relatives can only get off at the entrance of the city and enter with their veiled hats.

Gou Sheng pulled the wrinkled old jacket on his body vigorously, made sure that the two small buns that he had spent a lot of time grabbing in the morning were not loose, wiped the dust off his hands, and quickly walked towards a carriage that looked like it was probably new She greeted her—she was the wife of an official, even if she hired a car, she wouldn't hire an old car!

First there was a woman, followed by a big maid got off the car first, and then the big maid made a gesture of support, which meant that the masters were about to get off the car.

Gou Sheng saw the timing and squatted down, and put the wooden steps on the running board of the carriage which was slightly higher than the ground.

"Damn you, where did you come from!" The woman jumped and cursed hastily.

Gousheng didn't raise his head, bowed again and again, and naturally slipped out a series of auspicious words, "Ms. Ma'am is safe in and out, every step of the way, good luck and safety, good luck..."

Then he conjured up a palm-sized basket of thin willow branches and raised it above his head.

After this movement, several wives from other families have already watched over.

The big maid was very clever, she took out two copper coins and put them in the basket after a second thought.

"Thank you, madam, for the reward, and blessings, madam!"

After Gou Sheng waited for the big maid to leave, he put away the wooden steps neatly, bent his waist several times in a row, and flashed to the side of the road...

Of course, such a good thing doesn’t happen every time, there are also cases where rough old women just blow people away, Gou Sheng doesn’t care, gets up and pats the dirt on his body, and then bumps into a carriage run!
