Chapter 168

Dishui Lane, Tongru Bookstore, the atmosphere in the store, and the cold business in the store always seem a bit out of place.Gu San blushed so anxiously that his neck was thick, and he was questioning Shi Tianci: "Brother, you really took the charcoal from Laiwang's wife at three times the price!! Do you know that you paid such a high price, even if you can sell it to Bai Bibu in the end?" , we are also at a loss?? If you are still like before, isolated and helpless, without a backer, and you need to do this to prove your ability, that’s all. Why do you have to do this? You know, we don't have much money on hand, and we can't stand this kind of trouble!"

It is precisely because of the big tree of the Bai family that we need to prove our ability, okay?Shi Tianci simply didn't know how to explain it to Gu San. Although he said that he was about to become the son-in-law of the Bai family, this status was not glorious. The Bai family saw him now, and they were picking their noses and eyes. If it wasn't really helpless, just I'm afraid that he will be beaten away with a stick long ago. In this case, if he doesn't quickly prove that he is a capable and promising person, even if he marries Bai Yuhe in the future, he will have no status in the Bai family. He also couldn't get the favor of Bai Procurement.

Therefore, even if you lose money, you have to do a good job of the charcoal business. Why can't this Gu San understand it?

Shi Tianci was silent for a while, then suddenly sighed: "I thought you came to Yangxing County and helped me with one heart and one mind, why do you always quarrel with me and get angry with me?"

That is!Before he came to Yangxing County, he thought that after he came, he would be able to eat and drink spicy food with Shi Tianci, but in the end, he could only be aggrieved as a boy in a bookstore, receiving a few cents a month With a meager salary, what about the big money he promised?What about the good life he once promised?Nothing!Does it make him feel better?Gu Sanyue became more angry as he thought about it, and said: "Brother, of course you don't have to worry about it. You want to be the son-in-law of the Bai family, and you want to marry the niece of the Mu family as concubines. How can you know the hardships of us people?"

Shi Tianci heard the complaint in his tone, stepped forward, patted him on the shoulder, and said: "Why are you in a hurry, be patient, better days are ahead."

patience?Of course he was patient!He doesn't have to worry about food and clothing, and even has an identity right away, so of course there's no need to worry!But has he ever thought that he can only stay in this small bookstore until now, without even a bed, let alone eating meat and drinking every day!He didn't think about him at all!The more Gu Sanyue thought about it, the more chilling he felt, he was so angry that he couldn't even speak.

Even though he didn't open his mouth, the expression on his face expressed everything, Shi Tianci saw it, and panicked in his heart, he simply flicked his sleeves, and left, the two broke up unhappy again.

Gu San put his hands behind his head and half-lyed on the chair, regretting that he shouldn't have come to Yangxing County to join Shi Tianci, this time is good, life is not as good as before, but he wants to go home, but he has nothing to worry about.What should I do?He frowned deeply.

He was worrying when he suddenly heard a woman's voice at the door: "Hey, isn't this Gu San? Why, there is no business in the store?"

Who is this?Gu San looked towards the door angrily, but saw that it was Lai Wang's wife in the shop diagonally opposite.When he remembered that Wang's wife had just made a fortune by selling charcoal to Shi Tianci at a high price, he felt even more uncomfortable. He couldn't even squeeze out a polite smile, and said bluntly: "The business in our bookstore , has always been deserted, unlike you, you can make a lot of money without leaving home."

Faced with his attitude, Laiwang's daughter-in-law was not angry at all, and said with a smile: "Luck, it's all luck, but the guy in my shop is very happy. I just sent him a big red envelope. Will it be a good day?" Erzheng is happy to see his teeth but not his eyes."

If the store makes money, can the buddy still get red envelopes?Gu San was envious and jealous at the same time, he was so angry that he couldn't speak.

Laiwang's daughter-in-law glanced at him: "In your store, there is always a time to make money. Hasn't shopkeeper Shi ever sent you a red envelope?"

Gu San's face became gloomy again.

Laiwang's daughter-in-law laughed secretly, and said, "Gu San, don't blame shopkeeper Shi for being stingy, he's under a lot of pressure."

"What pressure can he have!" Gu San said angrily.

Laiwang's daughter-in-law looked out and lowered her voice: "Gu San, you probably don't know yet. The Mu family is dissatisfied that shopkeeper Shi hired a random guy and is putting pressure on him to either buy you or Just change."

Will he be bought? !Gu San was taken aback in shock.Although he is poor, he is a real good citizen. His ancestors have been good citizens for eight generations. He has never been a slave or handmaid. How could he sell himself as a slave in his generation?If his old mother finds out about this, I'm afraid he will die of anger!He was so frightened that his heart was beating wildly, he hurriedly asked Laiwang's wife: "How do you know about this?"

Laiwang's daughter-in-law laughed: "Don't you know which family I work for? My master's family and the Mu family are related by marriage. Others don't know about this kind of thing, so how could I not know."

Yes, yes, he really thought he had heard that Laiwang's daughter-in-law was actually the cook of the Kang family, and the Kang family was the natal family of the eldest wife of the Mu family, so it is very likely that Laiwang's daughter-in-law knew the inside story.That is to say, the news is more than half true?Gu San was so frightened that his face turned pale, because if he didn't want to sell himself, he had to go back to his hometown, but he didn't even have money to go back to his hometown, and Shi Tianci seemed unreliable, what should he do...

Laiwang's daughter-in-law saw that he was quite frightened, she secretly smiled, took a few steps closer, and said quietly: "Gu San, I think you are calm, you are a talent, I have long wanted to network you to my side..."

Gu San's heart moved, he looked up at her, and said, "You don't lack people..."

Laiwang's daughter-in-law smiled and said, "There is no shortage of people in this store, but how do you know that I only have one store?"

It turned out that he wanted to hire him to do something else... Gu San was very moved, but he still said: "I don't think what you said is accurate, why didn't I hear any rumors."

"It doesn't matter if you don't believe it, it's just been a few days anyway." Laiwang's daughter-in-law straightened up calmly, said goodbye and left.

Seeing that Laiwang's daughter-in-law was so determined, Gu San was flustered, and wished to ask Shi Tianci immediately, but Shi Tianci didn't know where he had gone, and he didn't dare to go far, so he couldn't help jumping his feet anxiously.

At this time, Shi Tianci was standing in front of Mu Changguang, accepting his instruction.Mu Changguang sat on the grand teacher's chair in the study, his face was unprecedentedly serious, Shi Tianci even felt that even when his account book was discovered last time, the atmosphere was not so dull.
