Fortunate Young Gentleman

Chapter 211: Recruiting a Disciple

"You were talking about that girl just now." Tang Ning looked at Zhong Yi and said, "Her name is Tang Shui, Yaoyao has seen her before."

Tang Yaoyao came close to Zhong Yi's ear and whispered a few words.

Zhong Yi knew that Tang Ning had made up her mind about the Tang family's affairs, so she stopped asking.

"Although that girl Tang Shui is beautiful, she is your sister, so don't worry." After Tang Ning left, Tang Yaoyao thought about it, looked at Zhong Yi and said, "What you need to worry about is the other vixen. She is not a fuel-efficient lamp..."

Zhong Yi looked at her and said, "Don't worry, my husband knows what's appropriate."

Tang Yaoyao rolled his eyes at her, "Don't worry, it has nothing to do with me whether he knows what's appropriate."

Tang Ning walked into the yard and saw Xiaoxiao sitting in a daze on the stone bench in the yard. The old beggar was standing next to her, walking around, marveling.

Seeing Tang Ning come in, he turned to look at Tang Ning and said, "Where did you pick up such a good young talent? If you don't learn martial arts, you will be wasting your resources."

Tangning asked in surprise: "What?"

The old beggar looked her up and down and said: "She may be a little thinner, but her aptitude is excellent. If she is trained well, she will definitely become a first-class expert in time."

When Xiaoxiao was looked at like this, he hid behind Tangning in fear.

"A first-rate master?" Tangning looked at the old beggar, her eyes shining, and asked, "What do you think of my qualifications? Can I become a first-rate master?"

"It's enough for you to eat soft food. Why do you want to become a first-class master?" The old beggar glanced at him and said, "Your little friend's martial arts are pretty good, so it's enough to protect you."

Little..., bah, what does their high martial arts have to do with me? You need to be strong to make iron. Now he can climb over the wall, and getting married is just around the corner. Although his qualifications are a bit lacking, hard work can make up for his shortcomings. He has confidence in himself.

The old beggar ignored Tang Ning, walked around behind him, looked at Xiao Xiao, and said in a seductive voice: "Little girl, do you want to learn martial arts from me and become a first-class master?"

Xiaoxiao grabbed Tangning's clothes and looked at him with some fear.

The old beggar finally realized that Tang Ning was her backbone. He looked up at Tang Ning and said, "Boy, I have never had any apprentices in my life. I don't want to take this kung fu to the grave and ruin the inheritance." , if you hand her over to me, I will be able to make her stand at the pinnacle of this martial arts world within a few years."

Tang Ning glanced at him, wasn't the old guy very powerful? In the end, wouldn't he have to beg for his disciples?

He does not object to the old beggar taking young people as his disciples. He has not seen clearly the strength of the old beggar yet. If he can get his full teaching, the journey of martial arts will be smooth. This is the same as when he is happy on weekdays. Pointing at Peng Chen is different.

However, this matter still depends on whether Xiaoxiao is willing to do it.

He looked down at Xiaoxiao and asked, "Are you willing to learn martial arts from this old man?"

Xiaoxiao looked at the old beggar with a confused expression. First-class master was still a very unfamiliar term to her.

The old beggar said with a smile on his face: "If you learn martial arts from me, you will become very powerful in the future. No one can bully you anymore. Whoever bullies you, you will beat them."

She seemed to have thought of something. She grabbed Tang Ning's clothes harder and whispered, "Yes."

The old beggar laughed loudly and said, "Now you kowtow three times to the old man, and you will be my good disciple from now on."

Xiaoxiao knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to the old beggar.

Tangning felt a little distressed and helped her wipe the dust off her forehead. The old beggar touched her head and said with a smile, "Good disciple..."

He stretched out his hand to Tangning and said, "Give me some money."

Tangning looked at him and asked, "What do you want the money for?"

The old beggar said angrily: "Of course I am buying some medicinal materials for my good disciple. Look at how frail she is. Before learning Kung Fu from me, you must first improve her physique."

His idea coincided with Tangning's.

Xiaoxiao couldn't fill her stomach for a long time, was malnourished, was extremely thin, and had poor immunity. Tangning was worried that with her current physique, even a minor illness would be very dangerous. The most important thing was to improve her physical fitness first. Come up.

The old beggar knows all kinds of things. He is a virgin eye recognition machine and a kidney-tonifying consultant. It should be a trivial matter for him to regulate the body.

He looked at the old beggar and asked, "How much does it cost?"

The old beggar thought for a moment and said, "Let me give you ten thousand taels first."

I didn't expect that this old guy was even darker than me. He only spent ten thousand taels on eating century-old wild ginseng every day. Do you really think he didn't understand the market?

"Ten thousand taels are not available. Is one hundred taels enough?"

"One hundred taels?" The old beggar thought for a while, waved his hand and said: "Forget it, her body is still too weak and can't bear the strong medicine, so just buy some ordinary goods first. One hundred taels is enough, but This hundred taels can last for a month at most. If you are good to my good disciple, make money quickly. There will be more places to spend money in the future!"

According to the old beggar, the more money he spent in the future, the more money he would spend. Tangning knew that she had to hurry up and make money without him reminding her.

Of course, making money is inseparable from Tang Yaoyao. The Tang family has connections and resources in the capital, and Tang Yaoyao has the luck to win every bet. She is Tang Ning's cash cow.

Tangning suddenly didn't want her to leave the capital.

They also have a winemaking business in Lingzhou. By the end of this year, the first batch of new wine will be available. Although the taste will definitely not reach the level of wine aged for ten or dozens of years, it will be far better than ordinary wines on the market in terms of strength and mellowness.

As for the capital, he thought about it and decided to enter the publishing industry first.

The address of the bookstore has been chosen. Miss Tang bought several small bookstores adjacent to each other on the bookstore street and merged them into one store. From then on, Tangrenzhai is the largest bookstore in the capital.

Tang Yaoyao rejected the suggestion of taking one character from each of their names and finally decided to name the bookstore "Tangrenzhai".

This name was chosen because the two behind-the-scenes bosses of the bookstore are both surnamed Tang. You can't write two Tangs with one stroke. They love each other like a family, and the bookstore can develop stably and harmoniously.

The assistants and craftsmen of those small bookstores were also bought by her. When Tang Ning writes the manuscript, she can start printing and selling it.

It was originally a very troublesome thing to open a shop in the capital and recruit assistants and craftsmen, but Miss Tang spent a lot of money and got everything done within a few days.

With the precedents of "The Romance of the West Chamber" and "The Peony Pavilion", Tang Ning planned to launch "The Peach Blossom Fan" and "The Palace of Eternal Life". Two of the four famous classical dramas were sold like crazy, so there was no reason why the other two could not sell well.

In order to complete the thesis, I watched these classical dramas and got a headache. I thought I would never use them after graduation, but I didn't expect that they would come in handy at this time.

Qing'er ran in from outside and said in a panic: "Son-in-law, someone is looking for you outside again. There are so many people here this time..."

When Tang Ning walked out of the county government office, he saw two carriages parked at the gate of the county government office. A man who looked like a butler was directing several people to move the boxes off the carriages.

"Be careful, don't bump into anything."

"Move in quickly!"

Tang Ning walked over and asked in confusion, "What's this for?"

The man looked at him and clasped his fists and said, "Is it the number one scholar?"

Tang Ning nodded,

The housekeeper smiled and said, "This is some small gifts from His Royal Highness Prince Kang to the number one scholar. Please don't refuse it."

From the thickness and number of the boxes, the gifts were not small.

But compared with what Prince Kang got, these were nothing.

In the case of the Black Tiger Gang, he not only severely damaged Prince Duan's spirit, but also pulled down a minister of the Ministry of Revenue who belonged to the Tang family and Prince Duan's party. These gains could not be obtained by sending a few boxes of gold and silver.

He was short of money, so how could he not accept the gift that was sent to his door? What's more, accepting the gift from Prince Kang was just a signal, and this signal was what he was willing to convey.

Tang Ning smiled and bowed to the housekeeper, saying, "Thank His Royal Highness Prince Kang for me."
