Allure

Chapter 43

The courtyard of the Shijia is still some distance away from the parking place. While walking, Shan Yong looked at the bustling congratulatory crowd today, and couldn’t help being a little emotional. When he first came here in college, the Shijia was not so prosperous. The herd of donkeys has increased several times, and more than a dozen small western-style buildings have been erected in the village. They used to be historians who were rich while others were poor. It can be concluded that it is almost catching up with a European-style manor.

As for the legendary Mr. Shi, Shan Yong only saw it from a long distance away. What I am sorry to tell my brothers is that I have visited him several times before, but I have never seen anyone. I don’t know where I saw him today I'm so happy, I was summoned by Mr. Shi.

"What are you doing in a daze, hurry up." Miss Shi in front urged.Shan Yong quickened a few steps, and gave Miss Shi who turned around to scold with a friendly smile. That Miss Shi was more attractive than all the beauties Shan Yong had seen, and ignored this attentive smile.

Shan Yong didn't mind, and quietly followed behind. This Miss Shi has known him since she went to the donkey garden to buy donkey meat. Anyone who knows Mr. Shi knows that the Shi family has two treasures. The first treasure is this Miss Shi, whose surname is Shi Her name is Baoying. Although she hasn't studied for a few days, she manages the historian's business in an orderly manner. At a young age, she seems to be able to manage half of the family.Needless to say, another treasure is that the surname of the little birthday star today is precious. That child dares to fight a ram when he is six or seven years old, and he can ride a horse and let a donkey before he is ten years old. Watching the little daughter-in-law in the village taking a bath, keeping everything in order, you can always hear jokes about Master Shi in the donkey garden, that's a real treasure.

Just as he was thinking, he was dragged by Shi Baoying inadvertently, and walked into the side building. There was a lot of people in the main hall, relatives of the Shi family greeted visitors from all over the world, but this side building was a bit quieter. After entering the side building, Shi Baoying stopped Stop, reminding Shan Yong: "Shan Yong, I took advantage of my dad's pleasure to talk about you today, so be careful when you speak, and don't make him unhappy on the big day."

"My business... Me, what's my business?" Shan Yong was puzzled, as if he had nothing to do with Shi Baoying, and he bought Young Master Shi just for the enjoyment of his appetite.

"What are you talking about?" Shi Baoying looked at him contemptuously, as if he felt that Shan Yong was ignorant, and reminded him: "Seeing that you are a good person, let my father support and support you. Why, do you want to be a second-rate dealer for a lifetime?"

Oh, now Shan Yong understands how much he has a good impression of this cold-faced and kind-hearted girl. The reason is that it is not easy for him to purchase goods here all the year round. He wants to point out the way to make a fortune. Mr. Shi is like a gangster in this area. There are quite a few people who follow him to make a fortune.Shan Yong smiled and said thank you.Shi Baoying managed to give Shan Yong a good look, and the two carried each other upstairs.

In fact, Miss Shi Jia is not ugly, but it is only applicable to the criteria for judging men. She has thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a dignified appearance. Come first: "Dad, here comes Shan Yong... Then, that's him. I even brought you some presents, take a look."

I have never been to the historian, but Shan Yong was shocked when I saw it. The magnificence of the house does not look like a country family. In the middle sits a strong man who is over half a century old. His hair and beard are gray and dark. His complexion was like a chisel, and Da Ma Jin Dao was sitting there full of gangsters, rolling a cigarette, with a bowl of freshly brewed big leaf tea beside him.Smiling, he waved to Shan Yong, but he held the wine jar in his hand, and he was surprised when he lifted it and heard it, and said with a smile: "Hehe, if you are caring, this wine has been cellared for several years... but it is not strong enough."

Drinking donkeys and smoking hand-rolled cigarettes, the donkey drivers in Shijia Village are very good. Even if Mr. Shi has a lot of money, he has not let go of this habit. After rolling the cigarettes, the daughter lit the fire and took a puff of thick smoke. Smoking, sucking his nose hard, and then puffing out the smoke in his nostrils. It smells like small dry smoke. It is very strong. Shan Yong wiped his nose unnaturally, and dared not sit down... This place, even the daughter's seat No, just sit one by one, and there is a large traditional Chinese character "donkey" hanging in the middle hall behind him, which complements Mr. Shi sitting in front of the middle hall. This old man has a fierce face and a tall man. The word ", still has something in common with the animal represented by that word.

Those who have no money are poor, but those who are rich have personality and aura no matter what they do. Even if the old man still looks like a local rich man, Shan Yong does not dare to underestimate him. moment standing.

"Young man, do you know why I called you specifically?" Mr. Shi asked, finished half a cigarette, and watched Shan Yong for a long time while smoking, just like looking at the teeth of an animal, but there seemed to be something dissatisfied with that look.

"I don't know." Shan Yong shook his head, and Mr. Shi was very dissatisfied with his answer.

This is simple, Mr. Shi put his work on, and said straight: "I heard from my daughter that you have been buying goods in our Shijia Village for more than three years."

"Three years and eight months." Shi Baoying reminded.

"Yes, three years and eight months." Mr. Shi said, stretching out his thick fingers, and the question came: "After such a long time, the donkey cubs have been laid a few times, and they followed my old Shi. Taking advantage of the 10,000+ , Hundreds of thousands are small households, and millions of them are not rare, so I'm surprised, why haven't you made any progress...Girl, I've seen your account. Three years ago, you only bought one or two One hundred catties, it’s been three years, and it’s still one or two hundred catties...can you tell me why?”

Embarrassed, it's because people think you haven't made progress.The reason for this is difficult for Shan Yong to explain. The sales volume of the farmhouse music in the ring horse village is not very large, and the other part is only provided to a few vendors he knows after further processing, so that he can earn some money and cover his tuition and living expenses. Expand your business.

"This...Mr. Shi, I'm a small household, and I can't compare with other big households. Besides, I'm still in school, and I only do some business in my spare time. You...you don't think I'm buying too little and call me here?" Shan Yong really didn't know how to deal with this reckless man.

"Of course not. As long as you come to the door, you are the food and clothing parents of my Shijia Village. I don't think it's too little for you to buy a catty or two." Mr. Shi put down his cigarette, took a sip of big-leaf tea, and asked Shan Yong again: " I just think you are a little pitiful, hey..."

"Poor?" Shan Yong stared, stunned, not knowing where the words came from.

"It's not pitiful. Don't think I don't know you. I know you within a few times. You came here on a broken bicycle. It's more than 40 kilometers from here to the city, right? You run more than 100 miles and get one or two hundred. Jinrou, you can't earn much... It's been three years, and you still come here on a broken bike, do you think I've seen it?" the old man said, as if looking for reasons for his kindness, Shan Yong He said dumbfoundingly: "Old man, my car has been refitted, it's electric, it doesn't take much effort."

"Can it save energy compared to a car? It's not as good as a donkey cart."

Old Master Shi said, glaring at Shan Yong, as if he thought the kid was talking too much and shouldn't interrupt him, so Shan Yong shut up. This old man seems to be the same as the thing locked in the fence outside the village, with a donkey temper.No, I just waved and called Shan Yong, took Shan Yong's hand, and beat Shan Yong's chest with his fist, which was a lot of fun: "You have a good body, look like this, when you come to the village, you will always go to Lufang, follow Lao Xin , Genwa, do it first, if you want to enter this business, you guys have to know how to use it first..."

The more you say it, the more unreliable it is. Laoxin and Genwa all slaughter donkeys for meat, and the old man dares to ask Shan Yong to follow and kill donkeys.You said that at any rate, my brother is also the proud son of heaven who is about to graduate from a second-rate university. He didn't realize when he had the potential of a butcher, and he was so appreciated by the old man. His expression changed a few times. When the old man noticed it, he stared and said: !? Why, are you not happy? I can’t treat you badly. In this land, the earning is no less than that in the city.”

"No, no, old man, I'm still reading." Shan Yong excused himself, surely he wouldn't be down to the level of a butcher.

"What kind of book do you study? It's enough to count the words and count them. Look at my Baoying, you still can't tell that you can still be the boss after only a few days of study? It's not like there are no colleges in the village, and they are raised like wolf cubs. Even if he knows how to ask for money from the family, he doesn’t know how hard his mother is!?” The old man sighed, and the daughter was not happy, and shouted displeasedly: “Dad, it’s business, just run away as soon as you talk! gone."

"Oh, yes, let's talk about Shan Yong." The old man regained his composure, pulled Shan Yong closer, and said seriously: "Not only is it pitiful for you, but there is one more thing. I can really see you, what do you know?"

Shan Yong knew that, shook his head, and said honestly: "I don't know."

I really don’t know if people are interested there, if only there is a rich state-owned enterprise that can be so interested, Shan Yong secretly thought.It's a pity not, the old man who was born as a donkey slapped his thigh, and praised: "Young people are hard, old people are free, these are precious things, you just took one of them, I think Shi Baoquan drove a donkey cart to Shandong and down the road. In Henan, people started selling donkey skins one by one. They don’t know how to endure hardships. I dare not use them... Yes, let me ask you. There are several kinds of meat in my donkey farm. Why do you Why only enter the most expensive?"

Yo, this is a real question, and I never thought Mr. Shi would ask this question. After all, he was born as a donkey driver. This old man has the natural cunning of a farmer. Those who push mills and carts, those who feed to fatten, and those who take donkey skins are not the same price at all, and only the insiders know the details.There are even more treacherous ones. The mule meat is boiled on high heat and marinated into the donkey meat to make sauce meat, which is shoddy.

"It's expensive and delicious." Shan Yong gave a simple answer.

"Hehe, no, it's not that you eat all of it... For more than three years, you are the only one who only buys donkey meat. You do the math, although it's not much, but you have to earn a lot less money in the past three years. "The old man has laid down the bottom line. Dare to love is the center and the theme, and it is what puzzles him.The highest price difference can reach more than ten yuan per catty, and whether you can make more money or not, is not like a businessman.

"Do you have to answer?" Shan Yong asked, looking sideways at Shi Baoying, this Miss Shi smiled and said: "What? What are you afraid to say to my father?"

"Well, there is no special reason, it's just delicious." Shan Yong said, this is also the only reason, never thought that there are other reasons, and because the ingredients are good, with a little processing, even the food from Mazhai His reputation has also increased.

"Hehe...a sincere man, just like your father. Your father's name is Shan Changqing, right? Is he alright?" Mr. Shi said suddenly.

Shan Yong was startled, but he didn't expect the previous generation to know him, he said in surprise: "Old man, do you know my dad?"

"I've seen it, I'm not very familiar with it. When your family opened a small restaurant on Huandong Road, I supplied the donkey meat. I remember this wine clearly, and only the old man from the Lu Winery could make it out... Later, your family opened Lvyuan restaurant is also supplied by me. Your father came to sell it once a week. As soon as the wine was sealed, I knew it was him. Qu wine is not easy to make. Your father originally came from the winery. That’s what it is.” Mr. Shi is alive, Shan Yong doesn’t think it’s strange at this time, it doesn’t make sense for people who do business related to donkey meat if they don’t know Shi’s family.

But when it comes to family, Shan Yong is even more reserved. The Lvyuan restaurant has become a thing of the past, and every time he thinks about it, it hurts his heart.

Shan Yong stopped talking, but the old man was very talkative, but he was so talkative that Shan Yong couldn't laugh or cry. The old man stroked Shan Yong's hand and said:

"Son, don't be discouraged. Being poor doesn't take root, and being rich doesn't grow seedlings. It's not a bad thing. After I know it, I can see you working hard to carry meat on a bicycle. You will have a bright future... This bastard boy in my family is much stronger... You are different. I asked Baoying to visit your house specially. Money is all about eating, drinking, whoring and gambling, it doesn’t look good, sooner or later you will lose your fortune..."

This feeling was sent out for a long time, Shan Yong's face was like a bitter vegetable, he lived so much, and finally met a bosom friend who admired him, but he was such a nondescript man, not only admired, but also wanted to recruit, he paused The old man lost his preamble, thought for a while and said:

"What are you talking about, yes, prodigal, you will never be prodigal. Although your family is a bit poor, but it will be a few decades ago, it can be considered well-established, right? Then you come to my subordinates to work, and you will not be reluctant Come on, you can't say that we are really a family..."

The more he listened, the more outrageous he became, Shan Yong's eyes froze, and he looked back at Shi Baoying, did he really mean to recruit a son-in-law?No wonder the young master of the historian usually jokingly calls himself brother-in-law.This is embarrassing, pretending to be a son-in-law is okay, let alone marrying such a daughter-in-law, even a brother-in-law like Shi Baogui can't stand it! ?
As soon as his face changed color, Shi Baoying noticed it, frowned and shouted: "Dad, what are you talking about? You are talking about business, where did you get involved?"

"Oh, yes, it's far away." The old man smiled, his eyebrows, eyes and beard were all turned up, revealing his teeth stained with smoked tea. : "I mean it's better for you to start from scratch. In less than a year and a half, you can support a business by yourself... If you don't want to start from scratch, you can do it. Open a store in Luzhou, and I can give you the money. But you have to pay it back, the interest should be increased, I'm not afraid that you won't pay it back, I trust you Shan family, how about it?"

Open a shop?Small 10,000+, big stores hundreds of thousands, millions, this tone really frightened Shan Yong, not doubting whether the old man has this ability, but feeling frightened by throwing out such a big temptation for no reason.Is it possible that brother is so handsome that the old man wants to recruit a son-in-law... Shan Yong looked back at Shi Baoying in horror. But I've never seen it before, I've seen this shrew beat someone with a donkey whip.

If you dare to try other things, you may not dare to try this matter even if you have the courage to brave a few leopards.In an instant, Shan Yong's face changed a lot, he tried hard to remember what nature was favored by historians, at most he gave Master Shi two days of make-up lessons, that guy was not as good as Lei Dapeng, he was still the last one after making up for it; At most, it was to send a few jars of wine to Miss Shi Jia, it was purely flattering and wanting to make the goods cheaper, there was really no other meaning; I tried hard, and I didn't remember that Miss Shi gave me a good face ah?Every time he settles accounts, he doesn't wipe off the odds, which is definitely the true nature of a businessman, picking it up.

This sudden incident was not a surprise to Shan Yong, but doubts, even more surprises, he really couldn't imagine how much his character could explode, which made the two of them look at him differently.

"How about it? Baby, give me a letter of approval. Don't worry, go back and discuss it with your dad. It's a good thing, and he will agree."

After Shan Yong thought about it, the old man clapped his hands and stood up. Someone downstairs called "Guanquan"'s name. The one who could call his name was Shi Jia's mother, and that was also a shrew with an extremely loud voice.The old man responded, patted Shan Yong on the shoulder, and kept his daughter entertained, but he went straight downstairs, and when he went downstairs, he turned his head and looked at Shan Yong with great interest.

Don't say that Shan Yong is not very happy, but the old man sees Shan Yong's attitude of not being forthright at all, and his satisfaction is still not enough, which makes the old man curl his lips.

It would be embarrassing for the fake son-in-law to pretend to be a real son-in-law. As soon as the old man left, Shan Yong looked sideways at Shi Baoying, Shi Baoying returned to his heroic posture that was not inferior to a man, glared at Shan Yong and asked, "What are you looking at? This man is quite big, how he speaks and does things is up to his mother-in-law, and he doesn't even have a happy word? If it weren't for your sincerity, such a good thing wouldn't go to you, and there are too many people who come to beg my father every day. "

"What do you mean? Do you want to work here, or borrow your father's money to do business?" Shan Yong asked blankly.

"It's all right. Your dad has done the donkey meat business. He should be familiar with opening a shop. But you want to do the best in the donkey meat business. It's not that simple. You have seen the chefs from all over the world today, and they really do the best. , It all started with the knife." Shi Baoying said slowly, as if she was afraid that Shan Yong would not want to, and she no longer had the rough and loud voice just now.

"So, you just want me to learn how to butcher?" Shan Yong asked, feeling depressed, brother's temperament, no matter how you look at it, you don't look like a butcher! ?
"Well, yes." Shi Baoying gave the correct answer, which made Shan Yong even more depressed.

"Okay, Sister Shi, I'll talk about it after I graduate. I'll think about it...I and my friends are still outside, why don't we go out first."

Shan Yong was unnatural, and invited with a smile, Shi Baoying nodded, and the two went downstairs hand in hand. Fortunately, there were many guests downstairs, which resolved the embarrassment between the two, and the congratulatory crowd was about to climax. The aunt of the Shi family caught that ugly boy Shi Guigui from somewhere, and invited Mr. Yin Yang, who was burning yellow mounting paper and sacrificing a table of delicious dishes, when Shi Baoquan kowtowed that ugly boy a few times. It seemed that he kowtowed reluctantly and then slipped away. When Mr. Shi turned his head to call the girl, Shi Baoying patted Shan Yong who was looking at the crowd in a daze, and said, "Think carefully, give me a letter..."

Saying that he was rushing into the crowd, Shan Yong didn't dare to respond, he quietly walked out of the crowd, went straight out of the Shijia compound, and ran straight to the Hyundai car parked at the entrance of the village as if fleeing. When he got to the car, he opened the door , but I saw Wang Huating falling asleep in a daze, which is ridiculous, the blinded donkey really lived up to its reputation, and Wang Huating was blinded first.

But Wang Huating was there, but the other two were not there. She knocked on the window, and Wang Huating woke up in a daze. She rolled the window, rubbed her eyes, and asked, "Why did you come back?"

"Why did you come back? How long has it been? What about those two?" Shan Yong asked.

"I don't know, I fell asleep in a daze." Wang Huating said.

"You know how hard it is to deceive the donkey." Shan Yong smiled, looking at the chaotic crowd and the donkey herd, there were too many congratulators but there was no way to find him, he pulled out his mobile phone, pulled out the phone, but no one Answer, Lei Dapeng is not in the service area, and Si Muxian's call is not answered... Now I am suspicious, what happened to these two guys?But nothing can happen here.

I searched a few places back and forth, and asked the villagers who knew the donkey drivers and slaughtered donkeys, but they were vague.Just as he was wondering and returning to the car, Si Muxian ran out from a distance, out of breath, and ran to the front of the car, Shan Yong was startled, and asked, "What's the matter? Dapeng Woolen cloth?"

"Hurry up, Dapeng and the slaughtered donkey are fighting for wine... I can't hold back."

Si Muxian pointed to the slaughter place and said, he was so anxious that he didn't even hear the sound of the mobile phone.

"Ah? Isn't he looking for death?" Shan Yong was terrified, he dragged Simuxian straight away and ran to the place. Wang Huating saw the two running away, and got out of the car to chase after them. What a fool...
