Tang Dynasty Mingyue Song Dynasty Pass

Chapter 3 Misfortune Comes From Heaven
Runzhou City used to be called Tie Weng City. It was built during the Sun Wu period of the Three Kingdoms. It was built on the mountain and was slightly elliptical. During the Tang Dynasty, Runzhou was expanded, and Jiacheng and Luocheng were built. The city has high walls and thick fortifications.

The city is densely covered with rivers, facing the Yangtze River to the north, and the canal cuts through the city. It divides Runzhou City into two parts, and is divided into the eastern half and the western half. There are many docks on both sides of the canal, and there are many stalls in the grass market.

In the whole city, you can see blue bricks and ancient tiles, antique buildings, elegant attics, and staggered attics. Due to the dense river network, every few hundred steps, you will see small bridges, flowing water, canopy boats crossing the water, and river banks full of grass. , Willow Yiyi, a picture scroll of Jiangnan water town.

Su Chen walked, watching while walking. After walking for more than half an hour, he hurried back to the lane where he was from the West City Gate.

The li-fang system was implemented in the Tang Dynasty, and it continued in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms. The southern Tang Dynasty was in a semi-reserved state, but the li-fang system and curfew system were not strictly implemented, and there were no fang gates. There were thirteen large li-fangs in Runzhou City, which was convenient for management. , the streets are crisscrossed
Su Chen's ancestral home is located in the area of ​​Dasuo Street in Liuhefang. There are many medicinal herb shops here. In Legend of the White Snake, Xiaoqing also went to Dasuo Street in Zhenjiang to buy medicinal herbs.

This lifang faces the canal to the east and belongs to the eastern suburbs of Xicheng District. After walking a few hundred feet, you can reach the side of the canal dam and face the eastern half of the city across the canal.

Along the way, Su Chen already had some understanding of Runzhoucheng's general style and material level. Although it was not deep enough, it was by no means that he had no knowledge of the leopard.

In general, Runzhou City has enough supplies. After all, this is the largest state city in the Southern Tang Dynasty except Jinling. Its strategic position is also important. In addition, it is an important port distribution center. It should be stronger, but, looking at it from the perspective of another era, Su Chen felt that it was lacking.

No mobile TV, no KFC McDonald's, no department store!

If Su Chen wants to survive in this era, he has to think about how to live. The family is about to be incapacitated, and there is a little loli girl waiting to be raised by him. It is not what he wants to live in poverty and hardships!
"In the Southern Tang Dynasty, how do you get rich for the time being?"

While thinking about it, Su Chen walked towards the house. As soon as he arrived near the alley, he saw many people surrounding his yard, as if they were watching the fun.

He strode a few steps closer, and heard Linger's cry.

Su Chen's expression changed, and he hurried to the door of the house.

"Give way!"

Su Chen rushed into the door of his house. This is the south of the Yangtze River. The house does not have a gated courtyard like the north, a long courtyard, and a rough layout of a main house.The door of the houses in Runzhou is the door of the front hall. Between the front hall and the back hall, there is a small courtyard with a patio. They are all wooden structures, and the color is dark. of.

He entered the courtyard and saw Cao Dan, the third young master of the Cao family, with three domestic servants making trouble, smashing the wooden stakes, water tanks, and pots in the courtyard, and someone was pulling his righteous sister Yang Linger away.

Seeing this, Su Chen suddenly burst into anger and roared.

"stop!!"

After Su Chen pointed to the front and scolded him, he rushed over to stop them from bullying his little sister.

A servant of the Cao family turned around, and when he saw someone coming to stop him, he subconsciously opened his arm to block it.

"Begging for a beating!" Su Chen yelled, rushing up and kicking directly to the side, kicking the servant, kicking him back several meters to the ground.

When the other two servants saw that a ruthless man was coming, they also let go of Yang Ling'er's hand.

Yang Ling'er ran behind Su Chen and grabbed his arm, for fear that she would be taken away.

Su Chen comforted Yang Linger: "Don't be afraid, with my brother here, no one will bully you!"

Yang Ling'er's eyes were full of tears, and her eyes were watery, round and big. Although she was only 12 years old after the new year, and she was wearing even more ordinary coarse clothes, it was hard to hide the appearance of a little beauty.

"Su Chen, Dalang Su, you're still good at it." Cao Dan stepped forward, wearing a round-necked long coat and a long shirt, holding a folding fan in his hand. He was originally a rich boy with no culture, but he liked to pretend to be knowledgeable. Shizi, arty.

"It's you bastard! Under the light of the sun, robbing civilian girls, do you still have a king's law in your eyes!"

Cao Dan stepped forward, waved his folding fan, and sneered a little: "Su Chen, you lost to me the Su family's ancestral prescription, should you take it out?"

Su Chen looked shocked: "What is the ancestral medicine of the Su family?"

Cao Dan snorted: "It's your Su family that has been handed down for generations to practice medicine and cure diseases, don't pretend to be confused with me!"

In ancient times, every medicine hall had its own precious prescriptions, and Su Chen had also heard of it, but he had just returned from wearing it, how could he know what the Su family's prescriptions were?And even if he knew, he wouldn't leak it to outsiders.

"Su family's ancestral prescription, what does it have to do with you, why should I give it to you?"

Cao Dan said angrily: "The surname is Su, you borrowed five hundred dominoes from me a few days ago, and you agreed to use your ancestral medicine and ancestral house as collateral to repay the debt, it is only right and proper, you have not If you pay back the five hundred dollars, you should use the prescription and the ancestral house to repay the debt, you won't even remember this, right?"

Su Chen was startled and said, "I owe you money? Five hundred guan?"

Yang Ling'er had heard this statement just now, but she didn't believe it at the time. At this moment, she looked at Su Chen with anticipation and listened to his explanation.

"It's written!"

Cao Dan took out a note from the pocket of his robe, shook it in front of Su Chen, then turned to the people watching the excitement in the front hall and said, "I am the third son of the Cao clan of An Lintang, and my father is also ours. The doctor Xinglin in Runzhou City is famous and famous. This is what Su Chen established seven days ago. He wrote it down when I borrowed money from me. At that time, Su Chen was playing dominoes with me in the casino. I owe Qian Guan here on credit, [-] Yuan, and I gambled for two days and two nights and lost everything, but I paid it back within one month within the deadline. The prescription, and this Su Chen Yimei to make up for it!"

"It's really Su Chen's signature, as well as his handprints!"

"Oh my god, five hundred pieces, the Su family has been an empty shell for a few years now, how can I collect five hundred pieces!"

"Crazy, this Su Chen's prodigal son lost all the remaining ancestral home. It's a pity that little girl Ling'er will be ruined in the future."

The people watching at the door were all the neighbors nearby, and there was a lot of discussion. They all regarded Su Chen as a prodigal and a gambler.

A male servant, loading and unloading goods at the wharf, earns about fifty cents a day's wages. After a month, it is only half of his usual income.

For an ordinary person, five hundred strings would take two to thirty years to save without eating or drinking.

Yang Linger can also be considered to hear clearly, all of this is true!

Her face turned pale in an instant, and she glanced at Cao Dan, who was in a daze, and the tears couldn't stop flowing.

"Brother Su Chen, I don't want to be a mortgage, and I don't want to be given away when I die!"

Yang Linger shook her head desperately, her hands tightly clasping Su Chen's arm, so miserable and decisive, so lonely and pitiful.

This scene's desolate expression made Su Chen feel sad, thinking that no matter what, he felt that he couldn't be sorry for this little girl.

Su Chen's face was a little dark, and he already understood that this was the previous "Su Chen" who was set up by someone to set up a routine. The Cao family came for the prescription of the Su family, and borrowing money was just an introduction. After all, the ancestor of the Su family was a famous doctor. His father was also an imperial physician, and An Lintang's goal this time was to completely remove Baohetang from the Su family's ancestral secret recipe, as well as all the current affairs of the Su family.

He comforted: "Linger, don't worry, I was confused at the time and can't remember at all, but no matter what, even if the ancestral house and the prescription are no longer needed, and I go out to borrow money, I will never send you out."

When Yang Linger heard Su Chen's assurance, she felt a little more at ease.

Cao Dan turned around and walked over, sneering again and again: "Su Dalang, wake up, look at your family, the four walls of the apprentices, the survivors of the ancestors of the Su family, you have all been defeated by you in the past few years. It's useless, where can I get money? Go to the brothel to find you a good friend to ask for a loan? Haha, in that place, if you have money, you are the uncle of the son, but if you have no money, you are a poor scholar. Guan, are you sure you can't make it up, today this house property, the Su family's ancestral medicine, and this little girl, all repay the debt, and our accounts will be settled in one lump sum!"

"Grass egg, don't you mean five hundred pieces of bullshit? Within a month, I will return it to you according to the agreement, Linger and the house, you can't get your hands on it!"

Su Chen also became hard-hearted. How could he say that he came from another world, and that he was full of knowledge and knowledge. According to the innate advantages of those who read novels, movies, and TV dramas, he made various inventions and creations, and quickly achieved the small goal of ten thousand, and finally became the Southern Tang Dynasty. richest man.

Ma De, will still care about these five hundred!
Cao Dan spat: "Damn! You're just an idiot. You're an idiot. You're a scholar. You don't deserve the name. The one-month deadline is only 20 days left. Where are you going to raise money? Perfunctory me, Cao Sanlang."

Su Chen lightly snorted: "Believe it or not, but it's written in black and white with a one-month deadline, you are here to make trouble now, it's not in compliance with the rules, you're breaking the contract on purpose, and you don't want me to fulfill the bet above, please report it to the government office. , is also your fault."

Cao Dan hesitated for a moment, his eyes flickered, and he was also thinking.

Su Chen let out another ruthless sentence, threatening: "If you are in a hurry, don't blame me for killing a fish! Don't forget what my Su family does. There are good medicines that can heal the sick and save people, and poisonous frosts that can punish Xiaoxiao. If you don't let me live, I will drag your Cao family to bury you."

Cao Dan usually doesn't read much, and he is also an embroidered pillow who is strong on the outside and works on the inside. When Su Chen said this, he immediately felt a little inappropriate, and even found that Su Chen seemed to be a different person, and it was not easy to bully him.

His momentum suddenly weakened, and he snorted coldly: "Since you are so stubborn, well, don't say that I didn't give you a chance. On the 23rd, and the 23rd, I will bring someone over to take away the things here. If there is one thing missing, I will break your leg to make up for it!"

"Come over and get the money then!" Although Su Chen had no good plan in his mind for the time being, he still swore to pretend.

"You have the seeds, let's go!" Cao Dan pointed at Su Chen, and found that this kid seemed to be a little different from before, he was in shock, and then left with three servants.

Yang Linger burst into tears and felt like the sky was about to fall.

Su Chen patted her on the shoulder, telling her not to worry, and turned to the neighbors at the door and said, "Let the villagers see the joke, Su was a bit of a jerk in the past, and was framed by wicked people. Coercion and lure to write down the debt! However, I, Su Chen, swear to the villagers here today that I will never do those lottery gambling activities, and I will never shame the ancestors of the Su family! Life is not easy, do it and cherish it, please The villagers witness the oath for me today!"

The reason why he wanted to say this was to take the opportunity to speak out for himself. The former Su Chen was a bit pedantic, with a low IQ, and was mediocre.

If the new Su Chen wants to change, even if he does business next, but he doesn't have a good reputation at the beginning, it will be difficult to open up the market, and even his character will be cast aside, which will directly affect his development.

Today, I am here to announce that I am reforming my past mistakes and do a self-marketing of "the prodigal son".

"That's like a word!"

"It's good if you can change it, but unfortunately, [-] points, when will I be able to save enough!"

"Just do it and cherish it. It would be better to realize it earlier. Now that the prodigal son has turned back, his property has been lost."

"It's a pity that the generations of the Su family have rejuvenated the family business they have accumulated."

The neighbors at the door all shook their heads and sighed, expressing the emotion of hating that iron is not steel, but some people were able to turn their backs on Su Chen, and their anger subsided.

The crowd dispersed, only Su Chen and Yang Linger were left in the courtyard.

Yang Linger asked timidly, "Brother Su Chen, have you eaten yet? Linger will cook for you."

Su Chen shook his head and said, "I went out of the city for spring today, I ate it outside, and I brought you a cheesecake, eat this!"

After he finished speaking, he took out the cheesecake from the cloth bag attached to his belt and handed it to Yang Linger.

"Bai Mo Cheese Cake!" Yang Ling'er broke into a smile and hadn't eaten this kind of white pasta for a long time.

Su Chen sighed lightly. In the past two or three years, after the death of the old servant, only Su Chen and his younger sister Yang Linger were left to live here. Due to the lack of daily control, Su Chen began to be extravagant, nostalgic for the brothel, cockfighting, gambling, etc. All the valuable things in the house were pawned, and now except for this mansion, the belongings are basically empty.

"In the past few years, I have made you suffer with your brother." Su Chen felt a little embarrassed, grabbed Yang Ling'er's arm, and leaned against him.

Yang Ling'er leaned against Su Chen at close range. When she grew up, she still seldom acted so intimately, so her cheeks were a little red, she paused, then raised her head and asked, "Brother Su Chen, is it time for the slaves to go with them? break your leg?"

"Don't listen to his nonsense!"

"However, in case they really want to break your legs, then the elder brother should give Ling'er away. I don't want to see elder brother Su Chen turn into a cripple."

Su Chen's nose was sore, her arms were tightly wrapped around Yang Ling'er, and she said in her heart: I will recognize this adopted girl for the rest of my life!
