Carrying AK into Ming Dynasty

Chapter 101 Gu Datong

Lincheng County Government.

It was almost noon, and the backyard of the county government office was extremely lively. The only cook in the county government office was very busy greeting several servants, all because the county magistrate Lao Fang wanted to treat guests today.

The euphemistic name is recovering from a serious illness, happy!
Of course, Lao Fang didn't have much money, and the treat was only in name, and he had to ask Lao Yan for reimbursement at night.

Apart from An Guobo Liu Hongjian, the guests at the banquet also sat a red-faced old man, this was Gu Datong who had just escaped from the tiger's mouth.

Gu Datong is a bold man, and Liu Hongjian has no airs. After learning that he was rescued by the young man in front of him, Gu Datong was so excited that he insisted on pulling Liu Hongjian to beg him, embarrassing Gu Ran behind him.

In the end, he learned that the person in front of him was the Earl of Daming, who had once defeated the Tartars outside the pass, Gu Datong was so shocked that he never mentioned the matter of worshiping the master again.

After the incident, Gu Ran followed Liu Hongjian's instructions and hid with his family in the barracks of the Thousand Households Office on Longevity Mountain.

Since returning to Lincheng was very late yesterday, Gu Ran didn't know that his father was saved until today, so Gu Ran rushed here in a hurry.

After not seeing his father for half a month, Gu Ran fell to his knees with a plop with tears in his eyes.

"Father, you... are fat!" Gu Ran knelt on the ground and looked up at Gu Datong.

Originally, the atmosphere was brewing quite sensational, and the first half of the sentence was true, but the second half of the sentence directly made Lao Fang spit out all the wine he had just drunk into his mouth.

Yes, after staying in prison for more than half a month, not only did I lose weight when I came out, but I gained weight instead!This is surprising everyone.

Although Lao Gu is a big boss in Meng County, he usually gives porridge to the poor. After being imprisoned in Meng County Prison, the guards thanked Lao Gu for his righteousness.

Later, Liu Hongjian threatened Wang Dengku with eight sons to entertain Lao Gu. Wang Dengku was worried about his son's safety, so he paid for the jailer Haosheng to entertain Lao Gu.

After staying in prison for so long, I have nothing to do every day, just eat, eat and sleep, so...

"You brat, you are so coy, why do you kneel to me, you have to kneel to uncle!" What Gu Datong dislikes the most is his own son, whose temper is not at all like his own.

Talking and acting like a scholar, without a bit of his boldness, Gu Datong even sometimes wondered if this was his son.

"Thank you uncle for rescuing my father, uncle's great kindness, I will never forget it, please accept my next obeisance!" After finishing speaking, Gu Ran kowtowed to Liu Hongjian.

The most important thing the ancients paid attention to was etiquette. If you received a big favor from others, you had to solemnly express your gratitude. If you were rejected by others, it would be an embarrassing thing.

Originally rescuing Gu Datong was a trivial matter, and Liu Hongjian's temperament was too lazy to do such a thing, but the next big plan to make a fortune needed their help, Liu Hongjian accepted the gift with a smile on his face.

Liu Hongjian, Lao Fang, and Lao Gu greeted each other and entered the table.

Lao Fang is in the best mood among them. He slept through the whole night last night and slept very soundly. He was still a little weak last night, but when he woke up, he felt that his body had recovered, except that his nose was still a little airtight. , and the strength is back.

"Uncle, this old man has been the county magistrate of Lincheng for more than [-] years. I thought the end was coming and I would never drink again, so I feel sad.

But I didn't expect, I didn't expect that the uncle's one, that white and black one, could be so miraculous, and the old man recovered most of his illness in one night, the count is really a god!The old man toasts uncle! "

I can drink happily again, this world is so beautiful, I can live and drink, Lao Fang is as happy as a two hundred catty child.

"Old Fang, I've caught a cold... oh, I can't drink alcohol when I have a cold, so let's drink less. Have you continued taking the medicine?" Liu Hongjian said, taking a sip from the wine cup.

"Uncle Xie is concerned, the old man knows, but the old man has been drinking for fifty years, and if he doesn't drink for a day, he feels uncomfortable all over. If he doesn't drink, living is boring!
The uncle said that it is white and black. I woke up today and felt much better, and my body has strength. My old Fang ate a meal last night and I am not willing to eat it!
That's baby!It's life-saving, wouldn't it be a waste of money to eat it all at once!I won't eat it in the future, I will keep it for my children and grandchildren! "

While talking, Lao Fang poured himself another glass and drank it down, and said with a grin when he was done.

Liu Hongjian couldn't help smiling, this old Fang lived a comfortable life, but this medicine also has a shelf life!

"Master Fang is really a man of temperament. My old Gu likes people of temperament. Don't just drink it by yourself, the old man also likes this! Come on, do it!"

Gu Datong raised the wine cup to Liu Hongjian, then Fang County Magistrate, and then drank it all in one gulp.

Well, these two old guys have found a bosom friend.

"I heard from Gouzi that Uncle came to Shanxi this time for the rations of the frontier army. My old Gu Jing has been camping in Meng County for a long time, and I have some family money.

Now, thanks to the great kindness of my uncle, my old Gu plans to donate all the surplus food in my family to my uncle, which can be regarded as doing my part for our Daming! "

After a few glasses of wine, Gu Datong, who was originally a red-faced man, turned red and purple, looked like a big eggplant, and his tongue was a bit big when he spoke.

"Father, the child is incompetent. Our Gu family's food is now... all gone!"

Gu Ran, who was sitting at the bottom, turned green when he heard his father say that he wanted to donate food.

The incident was revealed two days ago, Gu Ran left in a hurry, and only had time to take away the family's soft goods. There was no time to deal with the grain in the grain shop and warehouse, and it was cheaper for Wang Dengku.

"Ah! Are they all gone? Oh, then there should be some silver. If you don't even bring out the meeting ticket, what use is the old man asking you for?"

Gu Datong is indeed a born optimist, he didn't take it seriously when his home and shop were gone.

Gu Datong was born in a poor family, suffered from hunger and cold when he was a child, and received favors from others, so that after he became famous, he did not forget to give away his surplus money. This is his temperament.

Once the family property is gone, it is gone. As long as the person is still alive, he can earn again if it is gone!
"Crying wool, you really didn't even bring out the meeting ticket?" Gu Datong was furious when he saw his son just lowered his head and wiped his tears.

Thinking that if he didn't even bring out any money, he really raised a fool for nothing, and he was so favored by his uncle that he couldn't even help him with a small favor, where would he save his face?

"Father calm down, I brought all the meeting tickets from the family, here they are." Gu Ran was ridiculed by Gu Datong again, and took out a stack of meeting tickets from his waist and handed them to Gu Datong.

"Uncle, I, Gu, have never received such a big favor from others in my life. You heard just now that the grain was taken away by Wang Dengku's old bastard. I don't have much money. The 30 taels of silver is a trifle. "

Gu Datong counted, there were about three 10,000+ taels, without thinking too much, he took out two or three, and stuffed the rest to Liu Hongjian, without frowning.

Gu Datong's idea is very simple. Although he is in his early 50s, he feels that his body is strong, and he will live for another ten or eight years without any problems. He has tens of thousands of taels of silver as a base. A family business.

"Old Gu is indeed a bold person, and Uncle Ben is not hypocritical. Now that Daming is short of money, food, soldiers, and everything, Uncle Ben took over the money."

Liu Hongjian did not shirk, took the ticket and handed it to Yang Xue who was behind him.

The few people in front of this are really big-hearted. Those who can’t drink drink wine as their life, and those who say they have no money will sell 30 taels. She curled her lips and snapped her tongue secretly.

"However, Benbo won't take your money for nothing. Benbo recently discovered a business opportunity. I wonder if you are interested in Lao Gu?"

Liu Hongjian let it go, took a sip from the wine cup and said.

"Oh? Uncle also likes to do business? I don't know what it is that makes Uncle care so much? Old Gu, I'm all ears!"

Although Gu Datong was bold, he was not stupid at all. From Liu Hongjian's expression, he saw something that he had not seen for a long time.

It is the wisdom, or passion, of a shrewd businessman when he discovers new business opportunities.

Gu Datong, who has a keen insight into wealth, suddenly became interested, put down his glass and waited for Liu Hongjian to give the answer.

"coal!"
