Begging in late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 92 Baby!

The oil tank was snorting and steaming, and Xing Youfu, who was scalded like a monkey in Malaysia, covered his hands and screamed. Fortunately, the tank was not broken, and he hit it. The shop assistant and waiter next to him also Hula scattered away, this cold oil can be hot enough to burn people, could there be some monsters?
Song Qingshu doesn't believe in any monsters, except that he can't explain how he came to this era, he is still used to explaining the rest with science, full of curiosity, Song Qingshu walked up from the gap, poked his head into the mouth of the jar, An unpleasant smell of soda noodles came to the face. Looking through the dim light, the inside of the jar was obviously boiling, and the dark yellow liquid was gurgling violently.

It should be some kind of chemical reaction, full of curiosity, Song Qingshu turned around, looked at Qiaoer and asked: "What exactly did you drop into the oil tank?"

"It's the caustic soda that the shopkeeper bought back today!"

Song Qingshu suddenly realized that the wedding ceremony in Ming Dynasty needed leather to make things. This year scalp is very cheap, but in order to save money, Xing Hongniang bought raw leather today and bought some caustic soda to tan herself, because It is the raw material, and it was probably ordered by Qiaoer to move it to the kitchen. This thing can burn your hands, and it is reasonable to leak a little during the moving process, and it will fall into the oil tank with a trembling hand.

Nodding suddenly, looking back at the steaming oil tank, Song Qingshu's mind suddenly flashed, and he raised his head suddenly: "That's right! Why did you forget about this treasure!"

"Don't throw away the oil, you guys, take this oil jar to my master's house, I want to check it myself!"

"But, it's so hot, how do you lift it?" Xing Youfu's hot paws were red, and he still had lingering fears, Song Qingshu immediately slapped him on the forehead angrily: "Tie the pig's brain to the mouth of the jar with a rope, and then carry it up That's it!"

After being scolded by Song Qingshu, several Xing family members rushed to find the rope and transported them up, and ordered everyone to disperse. Song Qingshu also went upstairs eagerly, but before the delivery person left, there was a sudden Song Qingshu's arrogant laughter came out.

"Get rich, hahahahaha!"

Hearing this strange sound, Qiao'er, Xing Youfu and the others couldn't help but look at each other in blank dismay. Is my shopkeeper bewitched?
…………

Early the next morning, Song Qingshu rode a tricycle and went out by himself again, leaving all the business to Caiwei and the others, and he didn't say what he was going to do.

It was yesterday at the Zhushikou again, a jeweled phoenix crown was placed in the shop, even if viewed from a distance, it still looked dazzling, studded with pearls, the jewel headdress seemed to set off the elegance and luxury of that kind of woman extreme.

According to the etiquette system, only queens are eligible to wear this thing. Fortunately, although Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, was a murderer, his original wife, Empress Ma, was a bodhisattva-hearted person. You can also wear a phoenix coronet and Xiapei to set off your joy, so there is another beautiful crimson color on Daming's wedding.

However, this thing is not something ordinary people can afford. The more than 100 pearls on it cost a lot of money, not to mention the gold hollowing out, and the cost of sewing on red yarn by top-notch craftsmen. home to wear.

"How much is this thing?" Song Qingshu gritted his teeth and asked after sitting far away for a long time, but the boss inside lazily opened his fat eyes and glanced at the homemade robe on his body. After a long time, he reluctantly squeezed out a word from the corner of his mouth.

"150 taels!"

"Okay, two 300 taels!" Raising his fist abruptly as a cheering gesture, Song Qingshu immediately turned around and rushed out of the jewelry store, watching him go, the boss snorted disdainfully.

"Bumper!"

Still wandering around this street, but Song Qingshu didn't pay attention to the jewelry issue anymore, but began to inquire about the north and south goods of every family.

"Boss, do you have anything for taking a shower? How much does it cost?"

The store owners from Zhushikou to Caishikou were harassed by Song Qingshu all over the place, and they didn’t buy it even after asking. It was just a status symbol. I found a notebook to record it and left immediately. If it wasn’t for the tricycle he was riding, in Xi’an The city is a bit of a status symbol, and those bosses will regard him as crazy!

"What a weirdo!" The boss of the last family watched Song Qingshu turn out of the street on a tricycle, and couldn't help shaking his head. Almost all lost money.

Going home for a meal at noon, Song Qingshu went out again in the afternoon, but this time he took the little radish, and the two tricycles turned directly to Mishikou at the east end of the city, where the slaughterhouse slaughtered The bought lard and sesame oil were all rounded up, and Xing Youfu was sent to buy a large amount of caustic soda, sulfur, tobacco leaves, some knives, wine and other messy things, and some small porcelain. bowl.

"Fool, what on earth are you going to do?" The money was spent on more than 20 taels of silver, all of which were the dividends that should be distributed to Qu Botao. When Song Qingshu was short of money, he was still spending like this. The matchmaker couldn't help but took his arm and asked.

Who knew that this naughty ruffian suddenly threw himself on her face and kissed her hard. Before she could react, he laughed and backed away, and ran towards the cellar.

"Just wait and wait for the master to marry you! Hahaha."

Hearing a series of long laughter, Hongniang Xing blushed as much as the peppers they planted, and angrily shouted at Qiaoer and other waiters who were watching: "What are you looking at! Have you ever seen a pervert?"

A group of girls scattered away smiling, Hongniang Xing stomped her feet angrily: "This fool, how can I see people in the future!"

Song Qingshu didn't want to say it, and the shy Hongniang Xing didn't want to ask anymore, but from this night on, the people in the whole cheating tavern felt a little hot under their feet, and a gust of heat continued from under their feet pop up.

…………

Song Qingshu's nervousness lasted for more than three days before he calmed down. He stopped reading during the day and locked himself in the cellar. Sometimes he forgot to eat lunch and had to pick Wei to deliver it to him, and stayed there at night. There, I went back to the house very late, and it was still on the fourth day. Song Qingshu had returned to normal. It was time to eat and do business. Otherwise, Caiwei was really worried and wanted to invite the old man outside the city to take a look.

Nine days before the selected wedding date on October [-]th, on the seventh day of October, Song Qingshu came to Shi's Restaurant again.

In a month's time, Shi Tianfu was really happy, he gained half a circle of weight again, his face was still covered with a layer of oil, and he looked energetic. There was no way he could do it. He was refreshed on happy occasions, and his various businesses turned over dividends. , and even kicked the old rival Zhao's family to the bottom of his feet, he couldn't help but blush.

He also admired Song Qingshu to the extreme. Hearing what the man said, he even greeted him downstairs.

"Oh, Brother Song, you're here, the plants are shining!" Far away, this guy had already arrived with a loud voice, but Song Qingshu grinned and cursed the old fox secretly.

Originally Song Qingshu kept a low profile because he didn't want to expose his cooperative relationship with Shi Tianfu. Now, with a loud voice, the already neurotic Zhao family's head stuck out from the second floor. Was it that old hypocrite Zhao Yuanwai or whoever? ?

Anyway, it is okay to sit upright, and I am not afraid of Zhao's family when I touch it. Since Shi Tianfu was exposed, Song Qingshu just laughed and went forward and cupped his hands: "I dare not be the one. Guang Jin, after a while, I'm afraid I won't even look down on you."

"Brother Song is joking! Come on, please sit down, Shi Ergou, hurry up and serve tea and my best Dahongpao!"

It's really a level up. Although Song Qingshu doesn't know how to taste tea, he also knows that the tea in his mouth is much more fragrant. He followed Shi Tianfu upstairs and took a sip of tea. Before Song Qingshu could open his mouth, this big fat man They slapped their hands, and after a while, the man sent two bolts of exquisite and unusual silk, which were the high-quality lake silk that Xing Hongniang had taken a fancy to that day.

"Hehe, I didn't know Brother Song that you were getting married soon, so you actually used those mountain silks to fool me. I was wrong! I told him when he came back. I originally wanted to send the silk to the house. I don’t want to wait for delivery, Brother Song, you came here, just in time, take it back to make clothes for younger brothers and sisters! Count me as a kindness!”

Seeing Shi Tianfu patting his chest boldly, Song Qingshu couldn't help but praise him in his heart. After all, he still knows how to do business. It's okay to be stingy, besides making some small favors to earn some reputation, I really don't want to part with it when I really need to invest in it, and I haven't taken care of it yet!This kind of person is successful for a while, but the business is not big!

"So, thank you, Brother Shi!"

It was also when there was a shortage of money, Song Qingshu was not polite when he arrived, and accepted it with a fist and a smile.

The two exchanged some pleasantries, and Shi Tianfu asked again with a smile on his face: "Brother Song is a busy man, and he visits the Three Treasures Hall for nothing. Do you have any new business this time?"

"Old brother is really good at predicting things. This time, I really have a big deal to discuss! This is it!"

As he spoke, Song Qingshu fumbled in his pocket, and he pulled out a milky white thing, and put it on the table in front of Shi Tianfu. Shi Tianfu was confused, picked up the brick-like thing and looked to the left. , looked to the right, even sniffed it, smelled the aroma for a while and was puzzled, finally opened his mouth and wanted to take a bite.

It was so shaking that Song Qingshu hurriedly dragged him down, and said dumbfounded.

"You can't eat this, it's for bathing!"

That milky white square thing is a kind of daily necessities that later generations are accustomed to.

Soap!
