The Red Chamber begins with a bastard

Chapter 90 My Life Belongs to You, Third Master

The reason why Jia Huan brought Xu Wei into the stake was naturally not to do charity, but to find a backer.Speaking of which, the business of the ice cream shop is still good now. On average, it can sell about [-] ice creams a day, and the turnover is about six taels of silver. After the summer comes, I believe that the sales volume will at least double.

As the saying goes, don't be afraid of thieves stealing, but be afraid of thieves thinking about it. Once the ice cream shop becomes popular, it will definitely attract coveted people. If you have no strength, you may not be able to keep this business in the end. If you can get Xu Xiaopang in, you will naturally have no worries, and you can get enough funds to expand the market. Why not do it?In addition, with the escort of Xu Xiaopang's banner, troubles will be much less, and even counterfeit goods can be prevented.

However, Xu Xiaopang seemed to be ignorant of the world, but he seemed to have concerns about investing in the ice cream shop, so he didn't agree immediately, probably because he wanted to go home and ask his elders for advice.

Jia Huan raised his mouth and stopped talking, so as not to appear that his motives were not pure, and this kind of thing is about your love and my wish, it is best if it can come true, and it's fine if it doesn't.

After sending Xu Xiaopang away, Jia Huan was also ready to go back home. Tieniu handed the box of ice cream reserved by Jia Huan to Jin Shu, a boy, and said with a silly smile, "Master Huan, if this continues, we may run out of ice in the ice cellar in the middle of next month, what should we do?"

When the ice cream shop first opened, Tieniu was still worried that the business would not be able to start, but now he is so busy every day that his daily profit is almost three taels of silver, and his monthly net profit is nearly 90 taels, which he had never even dared to think about before. Moreover, Jia Huan also fulfilled his original promise and raised his wages to two taels of silver a month.

The salary of two taels of silver seems a bit insignificant compared to the profit of 90 taels, but Tieniu is not jealous, on the contrary, he is very satisfied, because this job is busy, but it is much lighter than transporting ice, and he does not have to endure the suffering of ice and snow. Niu is very grateful to Jia Huan and cherishes this job very much.

"The official ice cellar should have ice cubes for sale. Brother Tie Niu, you can ask. It doesn't matter if the price is more expensive. Take more to fill up our ice cellar. I will open one or two more branches later." Jia Huan said ambitiously.

Tieniu was refreshed when he heard the words, nodded and said: "Okay."

After Jia Huan left, Tie Niu also hurried out of the city to go home to make the next batch of ice cream, while Tie Hu stayed in the shop overnight as usual.

The sun was setting and the sky was full of sunset. Tiehu was about to close the store door, but one foot stuck in unexpectedly and got stuck between the cracks in the door.

Tie Hu raised his eyes, and couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart. He saw a man with a swollen face staring at him, with a dagger stuck in a leather sheath around his waist, and behind him were three gangsters, grinning and smiling.

Panther!

That's right, the people who came were none other than the Black Panthers, and judging by their posture, it was obvious that the people who came were not friendly.

Hei Bao stretched out his hand to push the door open, and said with a grin: "Brother Tiehu, it's not dark yet, why close the door? Give Master Bao four ice creams, flavored with matcha tea."

Tie Hu frowned and said: "It's sold out, please go early tomorrow." After speaking, he went to close the door.

A gangster behind the black panther immediately flew forward, raised his foot and kicked towards the door, cursing, "Shut your mother...!"

Bang! !

The gangster flew out with a bang before he finished cursing, and fell to the ground in embarrassment, clutching his lower abdomen and curling up into a ball, his face turned pale with pain, and it took him a long time to let out a cry of pain.

It turned out that Tiehu kicked sideways, but he came first and hit the gangster's lower abdomen first.The black panther was taken aback, quickly took two steps back, reached out and pulled out the dagger from his waist, and said fiercely: "There are two tricks, if you have the guts, come out and practice with Master Bao!"

Tie Hu sneered disdainfully, took out an eyebrow-length stick the thickness of a cup from behind the door, and strode out of the threshold.

Although Tiehu was less than fifteen years old, he was tall and tall like an iron tower. At this time, he rushed out with a stick, and his aura was like a tiger descending a mountain. The black panther and the two gangsters who were still standing were immediately frightened by his aura, and subconsciously took a few steps back.

The black panther looked at the dagger in his hand, then at the brow-level stick in Tiehu's hand, his throat felt a little dry, and he said in a deep voice, "Boy, do you dare to practice with Lord Bao empty-handed?"

Tie Hu sneered and said: "If you have weapons, you don't need them, you are an idiot."

Seeing that Tiehu was not fooled, the black panther couldn't help but change his expression, feeling that he couldn't take advantage of it, so he slowed down his tone and said: "Boy, we have no grudges or enmities, well water does not violate river water, as long as you tell the whereabouts of the stone, we will leave immediately."

Tie Hu said coldly: "I don't know any stones."

Hei Bao sneered and said: "You should know Xing Wei, right? That kid usually hangs around in Huanghuafang, no one knows that he is good friends with your Tiehu. Hehe, that's right, you boy and your elder brother Tieniu are both good at fighting, but don't forget, you also have a sister-in-law and a blind old lady at home."

Tiehu's eyes widened suddenly, and the veins on his body were stretched out, like a fierce tiger that would prey on someone, with murderous intent flashing in his eyes, he is not the honest and fearful elder brother Tie Niu, who dares to threaten him with his wife, he really dares to kill.

The black panther sensed the murderous aura on Tiehu's body, and couldn't help but feel terrified, and took two steps back hastily and vigilantly.

"It's not as bad as your family, this is the rule of the world, black panther, I warn you, if you dare to touch a single hair of my mother and sister-in-law, I will kill your whole family!" Tiehu looked ferocious, and pointed his eyebrow stick directly at the black panther's eyebrows.

Hei Bao only felt chills on his back, but he is also a desperado, so naturally he will not be easily intimidated, and he also wants to save face in front of the younger brothers, so he sneered: "You are the first one who dares to threaten me, boy, if you have the guts, then wait and see!"

Hei Panther left behind a scene, and left with his younger brothers in despair.Tie Hu's face was cloudy and uncertain, and he stood under the setting sun for a long time before turning around and entering the shop, closing the door heavily.

"Brother Leopard, that kid is too annoying, why don't we go back to the casino to get the weapons, and then come back and bleed him, so that he won't be arrogant." A gangster said indignantly.

The black panther's face was gloomy and cold, apparently he didn't expect Tie Hu to be so tough, he let himself lose face, and forced his respect: "No need, our goal is the stone, and I have expected that this kid won't tell the whereabouts of the stone."

The gangster said awkwardly: "Then why did Brother Bao come to him?"

The black panther scolded: "You know what a fart, this is knocking the mountain to shake the tiger, throwing stones to ask the way, Tie Hu must be fidgeting now, and will find Shitou to report the news soon, as long as we keep an eye on him, we will definitely find the stone, and it won't be too late to clean it up together."

All the gangsters couldn't help but their eyes lit up, and they all gave a thumbs up and said: "Brother Bao is brilliant, really tall!"

A look of color flashed in Hei Bao's eyes. During this period of time, he almost turned over the entire capital and couldn't find Xing Wei, and Wang Ren was in a hurry, so he had to bite the bullet and come to Tie Hu, but he was defeated, and he couldn't admit it in front of his brothers. In order to forcibly save the respect, he had an idea, which made him come up with this seemingly effective strategy.

……

On the second day, Jia Huan went back to ethnology class as usual, but Tie Hu came to find him just as he started his morning reading, and his eyes were bloodshot, as if he hadn't slept all night, his face was gloomy, and he looked a little scary.

Seeing this, Jia Huan couldn't help being startled, and asked, "Huzi, what happened?"

Tie Hu didn't answer, but asked in a deep voice: "Third Master, can you lend me 100 taels of silver?"

Jia Huan's heart sank slightly, and he nodded, "No problem, I'll ask Jin Shu to fetch it from the mansion later, and send it directly to the ice cream shop."

Tie Hu's expression was slightly relaxed when he heard the words, and he bowed deeply to Jia Huan and said, "Thank you, San Ye, from now on, Tie Hu's life will be yours, San Ye."

Jia Huan frowned and said, "Huzi, what happened?"

Tiehu shook his head and said, "Don't ask, third master. I have an important matter to deal with. If it goes well, I will come back and continue to serve third master. If I don't come back, please ask third master to take care of my elder brother and my wife in the future. My elder brother is too honest and easy to be bullied."

Jia Huan's heart couldn't help sinking, nodded and said: "You don't need to say that, in my mind, I have already regarded Tieniu as a brother, and Hongling has served me for many years, just like my own sister."

Tiehu smiled and said: "Then I don't worry, third master, you can go in and study, I won't delay you." After finishing speaking, he turned and left.

Jia Huan hurriedly called out, "Tiger!"

Tie Hu turned around: "What else does the third master want?"

Jia Huan hesitated for a while, and finally sighed: "Your boy is more stubborn than your elder brother and has his own opinions, so I don't ask you what you want to do, and I know I can't persuade you to turn around, but no matter what you plan to do, remember to protect yourself. Don't forget, your life is mine!"

Tie Hu's eyes turned red, he knelt down on the ground with a thump, and kowtowed three times to Jia Huan: "Please trouble the third master to take care of my brother, sister-in-law and old lady." After speaking, he got up, turned and strode away.

Jia Huan called Jin Shu to his side and told him, "Go back and ask Sister Ping'er for 120 taels of silver. Take it to the ice cream shop and give it to Huzi. Remember to avoid Big Brother Tieniu and don't let him see it."

Jin Shu was a bit dull, so he didn't ask much, and immediately went back to Rongguo Mansion to get the silver, sent it to the ice cream shop and handed it to Tiehu.

　Sorry, the second update that came late today was finally finished before 12 o'clock.
