mage in the late qing dynasty

Chapter 101 This is an unfulfilled wish

After entering the room, Zhao Chuanxin looked at the layout of the room.

Pen, ink, paper and inkstone are indispensable, as well as abacus and accounting book.

In addition, there are many precious objects placed on the Bogu shelf.

The Niu family specializes in luxury goods, so it's not surprising to have these things.

Cheng Mingdao made it clear that he was passing by to suppress the bandits, so he stopped by to see him.He also explained for Zhao Chuanxin that he came here specially to find Niu Zihou.

Niu Zihou was surprised and said, "I don't know, why did Captain Zhao come to find Niu?"

Zhao Chuanxin withdrew his coveted eyes from the blog shelf: "Well, there is something wrong. Our Lugang Town, oh, is the original Lugangling Village. Now there are more people and it has been changed into a town. Lugang Town lacks With little food and clothing, we are suffering, Boss Niu."

Niu Zihou felt a little headache after he adjusted his hat.

Why can't this person speak properly?
Zhao Chuanxin continued: "Boss Niu must know that Japan and Russia are at war in Liao, right? I went to Liao this year and killed about a hundred Japanese and Russians by chance. I saw that the local people were displaced and miserable. I spent my own money to help them escape. At that time, I was so poor that I didn’t even have travel expenses, and I had to support the common people by begging for food all the way. Pick it up. No, the people think that I am kind-hearted, so they went to Lugang Town with all their brains..."

In order to strengthen the relationship, Zhao Chuanxin squeezed out half a tear hypocritically, but Niu Zihou felt extremely uncomfortable at the frequency of blinking, and suffered from embarrassment.

Rubbing his temples, Niuzi said kindly: "But Niu heard that a man named Hunyuan Thunderbolt not only cheated the Japanese of thousands of ocean bounties, but also killed many Japanese and Russians. Even if Niu was in At this time, I often go back and forth to Shengjing to buy goods, and after many inquiries, I found out that the man named Cheng Kun is Captain Zhao. It seems that Captain Zhao never begged along the way, right?"

"My Cao!" Zhao Chuanxin slapped his thigh: "This matter is so confidential, why do you know?"

He changed his name to avoid trouble.

But now it seems that a pseudonym is useless?
Immediately thinking about it, it is also transparent.

After all, so many refugees know Hunyuan Thunderbolt Hand and Lugang Town, and those who are interested can almost guess it after thinking about it.

Niu Zihou smiled wryly: "Captain Zhao should tell the truth, what is the matter with Niu?"

"Then Zhao won't go around in circles." Zhao Chuanxin said solemnly: "Lugang Town is now full of refugees from Liaodi, and the food has run out, and there is no food around. So, I came here to ask Boss Niu for help."

It was for this.

Niu Zihou pondered for a while. The Niu family has many projects. Although food is not the focus, it is also involved.

After a while he asked: "So, how much money did Captain Zhao bring? How much food do you plan to ask for?"

At the beginning, he owed Chengming a favor, and he owed Zhao Chuanxin a favor.

If it is within the controllable range, there is nothing wrong with selling him a batch of grain at a low price!

It can be seen that Zhao Chuanxin patted his down jacket and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Zhao never brings money when he goes out. Look, how upright are these clothes? If you carry money full of them, it will destroy the beauty of the clothes. Let's get credit first."

Niu Zihou: "..."

I have never seen such a brazen person!
Ruin the beauty of clothes?Fortunately, you can speak!
It's not that Zhao Chuanxin is playing a rogue, he really has no money in his pocket.

It cannot be said that there is no money, it can only be said that there is not enough money.

Now the purchasing power of silver is getting lower and lower. It costs about 2 taels of silver to buy a hundred catties of grain.In the past, only half of this money was enough.

The purchasing power of silver will continue to decline in the future.

Even if he went bankrupt and couldn't buy much food, how long could he last when he brought it back?

Simply do one thing and keep going, first borrow.

Even Chengming was stunned, how on earth did you cultivate yourself so shamelessly?
I thought I was going along with the flow to sell favors, but now it seems that I am stupid to follow up, as if I want to offend others!

Niu Zihou wondered: "This is extremely inappropriate, there are no such rules in business!"

Even if the price is low, he will accept it, even if he loses money.

But if you just open your mouth and take it for nothing, it is no longer a matter of money or not.

Zhao Chuanxin approached enthusiastically: "What is this called? Rules are made by people. Boss Niu will make a new rule today!"

Niu Zi said nothing, just shook his head.

Zhao Chuanxin gritted his teeth: "In this way, Zhao has no other skills. Does Boss Niu have any enemies? Zhao will help you deal with him!"

Niu Zihou was stunned, why did he talk about enemies again?
He shook his head hastily: "Niu is a serious businessman, he has never made enemies if he can, and he has a good reputation in the local area!"

He has done a lot of charity, and many people call him Niu Shanren.

As soon as he slapped his thigh, Zhao Chuanxin said: "That's it. Niu Dashan, you should help those refugees, and you have to give a helping hand. In this way, you must have enemies, but you dare not say it, yes Isn’t it right? If you are threatened by someone, you will wink at me? Don’t worry, Zhao’s taking someone’s head is like picking something out of a pocket! Tell me, who is it? Is it Jilin General Changshun? Or Yiyinzhou Zhu Zhaokui?”

Niu Zi has a thick head and melon seeds are buzzing.

Is this a threat to me, or is it a threat to me?
And Chengming was startled: "No way, that's a decapitation, and killing an official of the court is treason!"

He knows Zhao Chuanxin too well, this guy can definitely do it!
So he is really scared!

Zhao Chuanxin's face turned livid, and he said loudly, "Okay, it really is the bastards Changshun and Zhu Zhaokui, I'm going to kill them, and solve Boss Niu's serious problem!"

Niu Zihou's heart beat faster, he hurriedly checked that there was no one inside and outside, and eagerly pulled Zhao Chuanxin who was about to leave.

Oh my god, I almost had a heart attack!

"Captain Zhao, isn't it food? Niu will help you solve it once. It's really not them!"

Zhao Chuanxin breathed a sigh of relief: "So it wasn't them, I was shocked. If they were really them, they would have to flee to the end of the world after killing Zhao. Since Boss Niu is so enthusiastic about doing good, then Zhao reluctantly accepted your help. The refugees in Lugang Town will definitely remember Niu Dashan’s benevolent deeds today, and they may even erect a monument for you.”

Niu Zihou and Chengming both smiled wryly.

Encountering such a product, I really have no solution!

After the agreement was made, Zhao Chuanxin got up and went to the Bogu stand, pointed to a emerald gold hair card on the shelf and said: "Boss Niu, Mr. Zhao has a niece. My niece is miserable. Back then, I trekked all the way from Liao. I came to Lugang Town through untold hardships, and was dying of hunger at the time. Zhao asked her if she had any unfulfilled wishes, and my niece said that she wanted a little emerald gold hairpin all her life..."

Niu Zihou couldn't help but want to scold his mother.

He tried his best to hold back his anger, and teased, "Your niece is dead? Are you going to burn her?"

Zhao Chuanxin's eyes widened: "What is this called? How could she die? She is alive and well, but her unfulfilled wish is to have a gold hairpin!"

Cheng Ming covered his face, why are you so stupid to follow this guy?
People are still alive, what unfulfilled wish do you always talk about?

Niu Zihou waved his hand: "Since your niece likes it, I'll give it to her!"

Zhao Chuanxin was overjoyed when he heard the words, he cupped his hands and said, "Niu Dashan is a righteous man, and Zhao's niece must be very happy! In her next life, she will be a cow and a horse for Niu Shanren, how can she repay it!"

Niu Zihou sneered and said, "Captain Zhao, don't let others make decisions like a cow or a horse."
