Fortunate Young Gentleman

The third uncle and the third aunt bought a shop on the main street of Zhoucheng. In addition to selling tofu, they also did breakfast business.

Xiaoru's cloth shop is not far from their breakfast shop. You can see it when you look up. If something happens, you can take care of it.

The third uncle's shop has been opened. The location of the store is not bad. Although the third uncle does not agree with Tang Ning's suggestion of a big opening bonus, buy two pounds and get one pound free, when he saw the profit on the first day , decided on the spot to extend the opening ceremony for another two days.

Tang Ning walked over, and her third uncle was talking to the butcher in the shop next door.

Next door to their shop was a butcher's shop. The butcher's surname was Zheng. One night, when Butcher Zheng was closing the stall, he gave him two taels of leftover pig head meat. The third uncle gave him two pieces of unsold tofu in return. , and since then, the two have become familiar with each other.

When the third uncle saw him, he waved his hand and said, "Xiao Ning, Lao Zheng just gave me three taels of pork belly. Remember to come over for dumplings in the evening."

Tangning waved her hand, indicating that she understood.

This place is very close to the alley where he woke up. When Tangning came over, she bought a few buns and distributed them to the beggars in the alley.

The cannibal is soft-spoken and the taker is short-handed, even a beggar has self-respect.

The beggar leader looked at Tang Ning and said apologetically: "Sir, I'm so sorry. We have searched all over Lingzhou City these days, including several people outside the city." I’ve searched in ruined temples but haven’t found the person you’re looking for.”

"Forget it if you can't find it." Tangning waved her hand and said, "I have another thing to ask you."

"Master, please tell me..."

Tangning pointed to the shop not far away and said, "I want you to help me look at that shop. If anything happens, immediately go to the place I told you last time to find me. Even if you have nothing to do on weekdays, please help me." Take care of it.”

The beggar patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, sir, we will always watch and prevent anyone from causing trouble there!"

The base camp of these beggars is here. Once something happens, they can react faster than themselves and the government officials.

Tangning took out a few pieces of broken silver from her arms, handed it to him, and said, "Take this money and buy some food for the brothers."

"Thank you, sir!" The beggar was not polite. After taking the money, he pointed to the shop not far away, turned to look at the beggars, and said, "Open your eyes and watch carefully..."

Tangning handed the matter to the beggars and walked out of the alley.

An old beggar was leaning against the corner of the alley, shouting casually.

"Do not miss passing through……"

""Shadowless Sword", "Thunder Palm", "Lost Track"..."

"The only secret book is worth thirty taels of silver each, twelve or three copies!"

…

There were no new wounds on the old beggar's face. He probably hadn't deceived children recently. Judging from the price he offered, his target of deception had changed from children to adults.

When Tang Ning passed by, she asked casually: "Are there the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms?"

The old beggar was startled, then shook his head.

"Where's the thirty-sixth way of beating a dog with a stick?"

The old beggar thought for a moment and continued to shake his head.

If you don't even know the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms and the Dog Beating Stick, why are you pretending to be a beggar and selling martial arts secrets?

The so-called secret books he sold to him last time are still cushioned on the corner of the table in his room. However, this time, the few books in front of him don't look so shabby, and the packaging is quite exquisite. It's something a scruffy old beggar can come up with.

Tangning picked up a book out of curiosity, turned a page, and immediately blushed.

The old beggar looked at him with a mysterious smile on his face and asked, "How about it? Is it worth three taels of silver?"

In an era when there was no Internet and no romantic movies from island countries, the erotic pictures in color pages were definitely a unique collection. Not to mention three taels of silver, thirty taels was a conscientious price.

The old beggar may not be a serious beggar, but he is a conscientious businessman. It's strange that he has such a precious thing, but he is reduced to begging on the street. He shouldn't even think about it...

"Brother Xiao Ning..."

At the door of the shop not far away, Su Ru was already waving to him. Tangning hurriedly put down the "secret book" in her hand, glanced at the old beggar, and walked towards the shop.

After Tang Ning left, the old beggar shook his head and said with some regret, "Tsk, tsk, you don't know what to buy. This is the treasure of the palace..."

When Tang Ning walked over, Su Ru glanced in the direction of the alley and asked doubtfully, "Brother Xiao Ning, what are you doing there?"

"I bought a few buns and gave them to the beggars." Tangning smiled and asked, "How is the shop?"

A smile appeared on Su Ru's face and she said, "The first batch of goods has arrived. Sister Zhong and Miss Tang are looking inside."

The goods in the shop are mainly various fancy fabrics and embroidery, and they also sell small items such as women's purses and fans.

These are all collected from villages outside the city. Most of the women from ordinary families are skilled in women's knitting. The things they weave by hand have fine stitches and high quality, and are very popular with customers in the city.

Tang Ning asked her third uncle to choose a few smart little girls from Sujia Village to take care of the shop and greet customers on weekdays.

The store has not officially opened today, so naturally there are no customers. There are only two people in the store, Tang Yaoyao and Zhong Yi.

"I think this shelf should be placed on the other side." Tang Yaoyao and Zhong Yi were discussing the layout of the store.

The Tang family is in business, and their business is very large. Not only are there Tang family stores all over Lingzhou City, but the hands of the rich man Tang have even reached other places such as the capital.

As the daughter of a rich man, although Tang Yaojing is not very good at math, she has a lot of ideas about doing business and can give Xiaoru some constructive suggestions.

When she spoke, she looked at Zhong Yi, then at Su Ru, and finally at Tang Ning. Tang Ning couldn't understand the expression on her face.

Zhong Yi looked at the door and said, "A customer is coming."

Although the store has not officially opened, the goods have been put on the shelves. If there are customers coming in, they will not be turned away.

Su Ru looked at the figure who came in and asked, "Sir, what do you want to see?"

Tang Ning looked at the figure who walked into the store and said in surprise, "Why is it you?"

Tang Yaoyao looked at the handsome young man, a trace of doubt appeared on her face, and soon remembered something, looking at the handsome young man's chest, a trace of doubt appeared in her eyes.

Little Master Li looked at Tang Ning and smiled, "What a coincidence, I can meet Tang Jieyuan here too."

Little Master Li is very good at disguising herself as a man. If Tang Ning hadn't seen her incomplete appearance that day, she might not have recognized her right away.

Su Ru looked at them and asked in surprise, "Brother Xiao Ning knows this young man?"

Tang Ning nodded, looked at Little Master Li, and said, "Little Master Li, we meet again."

Su Ru poured two cups of tea, placed them on the table outside, and went back in.

Tang Yaoyao looked at Little Master Li with a slightly wary look, pulled Zhong Yi and Su Ru into the inner room, and whispered something in their ears.

The two of them soon became surprised.

At the table, Tang Ning took a sip of tea, looked at the young master Li, and asked: "Your country's envoy, are you not leaving for the capital yet?"

"You can arrive in Beijing before the end of the year, there is no rush." ​​Young master Li looked at him and said: "Besides, Lingzhou has beautiful scenery and outstanding people. We want to stay here for a while to experience the customs and customs of Lingzhou."

Tang Ning always felt that the other party's purpose was not so simple. He didn't believe that meeting her here today was a coincidence. Last night he felt that this young master Li was very wrong, as if he had some conspiracy, and now this feeling is even stronger.

But what does she want from me? He has no money, no power, and the only thing he can offer is..., can she be someone who wants from me?

Tang Ning looked at her suspiciously and nodded, "Then stay a little longer..."

"Unfortunately, we are in Lingzhou, unfamiliar with the place, and the only person we know is Tang Jieyuan..." Lord Li looked at him, changed the subject, and said, "Maybe we have to bother Tang Jieyuan more these days."

Tang Ning waved his hand and said, "Lord Li, you are joking. If there is anything, the post station and the government will arrange it for you. There is no need for me..."

"That's right." Lord Li nodded and said, "Tang Jieyuan still has to prepare for the provincial exam, so we can't bother him."

Although she said so, Tang Ning's heart was still on his mind.

Especially when he saw the smile on her face, he vaguely felt that trouble was coming.
