The county magistrate changed his career to selling private vegetables and sold them out

Chapter 96 Come on, let's make money together!

When Mr. Xunmei came back, he saw that his apprentice looked depressed. He didn't say anything. After dinner, he gave Saburo homework and went back to his room to rest.

Saburo was reciting the book under the oil lamp, and lost his mind after reciting it.

Brother Shitou will go out to buy seafood for the evening market in a while. The order received today is a bit large, and I don't know if I can buy that much.

There are not enough seasoning ingredients, so I have to write it down first, and buy it tomorrow.

Early in the morning, the little brothers ran away again and disappeared.

Mr. Xunmei looked at Sanlang's homework last night, his face gradually darkened.

If he doesn't know what these two boys are doing, he will be a teacher in vain.

He wants to see how long he can survive!
"Small seafood in sauce, delicious and fresh, don't miss it when you pass by!" The crisp and clear children's voice always attracts eyes in twos and threes on the street.

It can also attract dubious street gangsters.

Several vagrants who have been active here for a long time have been eyeing Sanlang and Shitou since yesterday.

They are all half-aged children, the oldest is two years older than Shi Shi, and there are many of them.

Stone knew he was in trouble when five ragged children surrounded him.

He hid the money bag on his body and clutched it tightly, pulled Sanlang back behind him, and said sternly, "What are you going to do?"

The leading boy walked over, squatted down, picked up a sea prawn, threw it into his mouth, chewed it, and smiled with satisfaction.

"Nothing, we brothers are hungry and haven't eaten for a few days. I want to ask you for some money to fill our stomachs."

Shitou frowned fiercely, "No money! Go away, or I'll call the guards who patrol the streets to come over!"

The boy was unmoved, and with a wave of his hand, several other children also surrounded him.

"Hurry up and hand it over, I promise you won't be able to take a dime back today!"

Shi Shi rolled up his sleeves and was about to fight, when a small hand grabbed him from behind.

Saburo got out from Shi Shi's armpit, looked at the waifs silently, sighed, took out some steamed cakes from his pocket and handed them over.

"Little brother, eat a few dim sum to fill your stomach first, and I'll give each of you another bowl of seafood in seafood sauce. You eat first, and if it's not enough, brother Shitou and I will go buy some steamed buns later."

The boy glanced at the snack in Saburo's hand, took it, and threw it to the little ones beside him.

Saburo gave each child a bowl of seafood, and they squatted down on the spot and devoured it, even drinking the soup.

"He's a sensible person, so I'll take half of your money!" The young man smiled with satisfaction, and sat down beside the stone with seafood in his hands.

Sanlang squeezed over, sat down with the young man, and said with a little embarrassment: "Little brother, you can't do this! Even if I give you all the money, you won't be able to use it for a few days. You have so much money." people!"

There is a small one who is still coughing, and I guess he needs to take medicine.

The boy glanced at him, then turned his back to him.

Sanlang moved over again, blinked his big black eyes and said to the young man: "You are their elder brother, you still have to find a way! I will give you some money first, and you go get some medicine for that little brother, and then buy some food." Yes. Come and find me tomorrow, and we will find a solution together."

The boy was drinking the soup and barely choked on it.He coughed a few times, stared at Sanlang and asked, "You said, let us come to you again tomorrow?"

Saburo nodded, "Yes! It's getting dark now, we should go back after selling these."

The boy was still coughing, "We robbed... cough cough, your money, you dare to come tomorrow? cough cough, dare you let me come to you?"

Saburo patted the young man on the back, and said: "It's not about stealing my money, I'm giving you some money to buy medicine, and I'll bring you some pastries tomorrow, and then I'll think of a way to see if I can find a job for you. You can’t live by robbing money from now on, right? If you can really rob money, you won’t have to eat for a few days.”

The boy laughed a few times, gestured at Sanlang's size, put his hand on his shoulder and said disdainfully: "You're a brat, and you dare to help us find jobs, hahaha!"

Saburo pursed his lips, and clapped his hand unhappily, "Isn't brother Shitou and I also doing business here to make money? You all have hands and feet, and they are older than me. Why can't you work and support yourself?" By yourself? Wouldn’t it be good for everyone to make money together?”

The boy's eyes suddenly widened, "You mean...?"

Just when a customer came to inquire about the price, Saburo pulled the boy back, "Don't block the customer, don't block here, go over there, and stand still."

The young man waved his hand silently, and a group of boys obediently followed him to the place designated by San Lang.

It was like an episode just now, the heart of stone was still hanging, and Saburo started yelling as if nothing happened.

"The last few catties of fish juice seafood, first come, first served, the stall will be closed when sold out!"

When the last piece of seafood in Shitou's hands was sold out, Sanlang opened the money bag in public, poured it out in a pile, and held it all in front of the boy without counting them.

"Here are these for you, first grab the medicine for the little brother, and I have to save the rest for my sister."

The young man stared blankly at the large amount of copper coins in his hand, his eyes were quite indescribable.

"Brother Shitou's snacks are delicious. I'll bring you some tomorrow so that you won't be hungry. Now, it's an agreement. Come here early tomorrow. If it's too late, you won't be able to find me!"

"What's your name?" When the boy spoke again, his tone had changed.

"My name is Jiao Xian, and my nickname is Sanlang. You can call me Sanlang! We have to go back. Goodbye little brother."

Saburo lifted up the stone as he spoke, and left without caring about the boy's reaction, carrying the basket.

After walking a long way, Shitou looked back to make sure no one was following, and then he let out a long sigh of relief.

"It scared me to death! Sanlang, you are so powerful, just sent them away like this, I thought we would lose everything today!"

"Are they really children without parents?" Saburo obviously didn't focus on this.

Shitou nodded nonchalantly, "There are a lot of beggars in Yuzhou City, and there are many who escaped from other places. After the death of their parents, there are only children left, so they become wandering orphans. I was picked up by my husband from the gate of the city." Come back!"

Saburo paused, looking at the stone in surprise.

Shitou scratched his head, and said with some embarrassment: "When I was four years old, my mother took me here to flee famine. When I arrived in Yuzhou, she was already very sick and dying. Before she died, she met her husband. That's it. Mr. picked me up and brought me up!"

Saburo nodded thoughtfully, then grabbed Shitou's hand, "Brother Shitou, let's help them!"

Shi Shi was a little dazed, he himself was picked up and raised by his husband, so he couldn't pick up a few more for him to raise, right?Is this not good?
