Big businessman and little fisherman

Chapter 83
Lu Xiaosi quickly glanced at Lu Quan, and then at the honest Lu Quan.
Hey, Dad is honest, only her fake son can do it.
Lu Yange sat up straight and bowed to shopkeeper Li: "Thank you, Uncle Li, for your attention. It's just that Xiaosi was weak since he was a child. My parents told me my fortune, saying that I couldn't be raised by my parents when I was young, and I would die early. He also said that I was weak because I was so lucky that I couldn’t bear it, so I could only recognize a stone roller as my godfather. If I recognized someone else as my father and mother, it would hinder their longevity.”
This flustered Lu Yange didn't blush or heartbeat, because she heard that some children in the countryside couldn't support them, and some of them considered the stone drums in the field as godfathers and the big trees as godfathers.No matter how fast she was thinking, she could only make up nonsense up to this point, and let Shopkeeper Li figure out the rest.
"correct……"
As if drowning and finally embracing a straw, Lu Quan hurriedly nodded, "Little Si has a godfather, so I can't recognize him anymore. It's not that we don't know how to praise Mr. Li, it's that we really don't dare to climb high, I'm afraid, so, It's not... not very... convenient for you and Madam."
When it came to the end, Lu Quan was already hesitating, and he couldn't even speak well.
"Ah……"
Shopkeeper Li looked at Lu Quan, who was sweating profusely, and then at the Lu family's Xiaosi who was sitting opposite, knowing in his heart that the Lu family must have something to hide, so he refused so repeatedly.
He wanted to be married, not enmity.
Since it is inconvenient for others to talk about something, it is not easy for him to ask.
"It's my fault. I like Xiao Si so much, and I always think how good it is that this child is my son. That's why I put you in a difficult situation, Brother Lu."
"No, no... It's me, it's mine, I shouldn't... I shouldn't..."
He shouldn't be ignorant of flattery, and Lu Quan didn't say this after talking for a long time.He has been honest and responsible all his life, and he is already tired of coping with such a thing, where can he find suitable words.
It was Shopkeeper Li who broke the deadlock first: "Okay, if you continue talking, it will really make things difficult for you and my brother in the future."
He raised his big hand and rubbed Lu Yange's little head vigorously, and sighed, "Brother Lu, you and I are brothers, even if your son can't be my son-in-law or my adopted son, he is still my son-in-law." Isn't it a nephew?"
"Yes."
This time Lu Quan couldn't hesitate any longer, "Didn't Xiaosi always call you Uncle Li, he was also her uncle in his heart back then."
"That's enough, this is the end of the matter."
Shopkeeper Li withdrew his hand grandly, and pushed the tea bowl in front of Lu Xingge, "Nephew, come and pour tea for Uncle, don't we still have to talk about opening a shop?"
Seeing that shopkeeper Li was not angry, nor did he continue to question, Lu Quan secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
The bead of sweat that came out of his face was so startled that he didn't even dare to wipe it off!
People don't want their son to be their son-in-law, so he can't help it.
People don't want their son to be his godson, so he can't help it.
But Lu Quan didn't want Xiao Si to go to study, and shopkeeper Li felt as if a stone had been crushed in his heart, which made him feel so heavy that he couldn't speak.
Lu Xingge looked at shopkeeper Li, who was drinking tea, and at Lu Quan, who was in a panic all day long, and sighed in his heart.
One is to do her best sincerely, hoping that she can get ahead by studying.
One is that he dare not let her study for fear of being exposed, which will cause her to lose her reputation when she grows up.
These two people are good people, if she doesn't speak again, she is afraid that Shopkeeper Li will annoy her father, and then there will be no friendship between the two families!
It seems that she has to make a decision on this matter.
"Father, why don't you let the child go to a private school to try. If the child can read, then the child must study hard, get a name in the exam, and honor the ancestors of our Lu family. If the child can't read, it is good to know some words. At least, at least, if you do business and settle accounts in the future, you won't be deceived."
"What does it mean to be able to read?"
Before Lu Quan could speak, shopkeeper Li was reluctant, "You are so smart, as long as you put your mind on trivial matters, how can you not stand out from the crowd?"
Really, the emperor is not in a hurry and the eunuch is in a hurry.
Shopkeeper Li just felt extremely depressed at the moment, and wished he hadn't been here today, but he also knew that he couldn't lose his sense too much, so he could only wave his hand helplessly: "Forget it, as long as you are willing to try."
Maybe just try this kid, the future is uncertain, no one can tell what will happen.
Lu Quan secretly wiped off his sweat again. Seeing that the teapot was empty, he hurriedly picked up the teapot: "Sit down, shopkeeper Li, and I'll pour the tea."
Said that he quickly walked out of the cabin door, Xiao Si agreed to go to the school, he had to ask Qiu Shi about this.
It is always inconvenient for a female doll to go to school, and it is not appropriate to raise it as a boy baby. If she can study and read with a group of male dolls, will she be criticized when she grows up?
Watching Lu Quan walk out of the cabin, shopkeeper Li smiled and took out a few bank notes from his arms and handed them to Lu Yange.
"This is the interest you earned from the Mifune raw silk you asked me to buy last time. I promised you that you would get [-]% of it when you sold it."
The reason why he didn't give it to Lu Quan but to Lu Yange was also a joke from Lu Yange at the beginning. If Uncle Li really wants to take me to share [-]%, he can only give it to me, not to my parents.
Although shopkeeper Li was surprised why such a young child kept it from his parents, he didn't say much, and took out the banknote to Lu Yange while Lu Quan was away.
Lu Yange looked at the silver bills in front of him, and he was not polite, picked them up and counted them, six for 50 taels each, two for 100 taels for a total of 500 taels of silver.She folded it carefully and put it in her purse, then smiled honestly at shopkeeper Li: "Thank you, Uncle Li."
If she can get 500 taels, shopkeeper Li can earn more than 5000 taels. This is a win-win situation, and she will naturally not refuse the money.
Speaking of which, shopkeeper Li is lucky.
More than a month ago, Mrs. Qiu went to Lai Fushun to teach Tao Shan and others how to cook long fish dishes, and Lu Yange ate some peanuts and tea in shopkeeper Li's shop.A merchant came out of Huaicheng with three ships of raw silk, and when he arrived at Jiangjiaba, Xu Shi, a merchant, was frightened by the Hongying Army in Huaicheng, and fell ill.
With this illness, the merchants began to murmur in their hearts, thinking that it was inconvenient to transport the goods this time, and it might be because of bad luck.
Merchants are reluctant to take their lives, so they don't want to make this trip.
But Sanfuan had already purchased the raw silk, and if he didn't ship it out, the money would be thrown into his own hands.
It just so happened that Lu Yange heard shopkeeper Li mention it in shopkeeper Li's shop, so she gave shopkeeper Li an idea, let shopkeeper Li make peace, and resell the three ships of raw silk to other ship merchants.
The price of raw silk is high and the profit is high.
Shopkeeper Li couldn't help but be tempted for a moment, and then it worked according to what Lu Yange said.
Because of the golden signboard of Lai Fushun as a guarantee, the merchant really entrusted Sanchuan raw silk to shopkeeper Li.
Probably all these three boats of raw silk have been resold, and now, shopkeeper Li is bringing the money he earned to distribute the profits to Lu Xingge.
