【280】Don't say I'm lazy

The sky thief at the end of June is very hot.As long as you dare to stand still under the sun for half a quarter of an hour, you are guaranteed to be called "crazy" or "beautiful".The so-called "three nines in winter and three days in summer" starts from this time, and the weather is so hot that even cicadas don't bother to sing.

Ouyang leaned against the big locust tree in the courtyard, holding the cattail fan leisurely and shaking it once and for all.

Although the army is performing drills at this time, their special brigade is a special existence, and it is only up to Ouyang to say whether to practice or not.So the special brigade became the target of the whole Bingzhou battalion gnashing their teeth - Xia Fuxie for half a month.The half-month holiday of Xiafu is like hungry food, thirsty water, and sleepy married women. It makes people feel comfortable with thousands of pores all over the body. The tens of thousands of men in the whole army can only sigh that their special brigade has a good brigade commander. You can earn benefits for them that they can't even imagine.As for the men in the special brigade, after hearing the news, they couldn't close their mouths when they slept, and laughed happily.

But jealousy is jealousy, no one can, and no one dares to add words like "violating military discipline" or "lazy" to the head of the special brigade, because they practiced so hard before that it was scary , so ruthless that people can only sigh.In the past two months, the training volume of the special brigade was almost three times higher than that of other battalions. Taking advantage of the coolness of spring and early summer, Ouyang vividly demonstrated his "cold-blooded instructor" side. Sleep time, and the rest of the time is used for training.

From military discipline to physical fitness, small fire coordination to whole brigade cooperation, from the necessary swords, guns, bows and swords to unique mountain climbing picks and rock climbing, from flat terrain to mountains and rivers, the special brigade has practiced it all, and Ouyang fights every day Deliberate training of analysis and thinking, it can be said that these guys at least look like that, and they look like special forces.

Ouyang did this on purpose. In April or even earlier, he formulated a targeted military training plan. He wanted to impress these people with many new things, which resulted in an instinctive conditioned reflex—— As long as they encounter situations that have arisen during training, these people will definitely know what they are going to do and how to do it immediately.As for practicing the skills of the king of special forces for many years in the later generations, there is still a period of time.

Ninety-nine out of [-] people in the special brigade choose to go home for a half-month vacation.Soldiers have spent years and years in camps and on the battlefield. How can anyone miss home?It's either my siblings or my parents' elder relatives, and what I miss most is my wife and children. Getting this half-month vacation is the first time in the world.Most of the special brigade soldiers were born in Hedong Road, so it is very convenient to go home; as for those who are a little farther away, it is not a big problem to go back and forth in half a month.What made them most happy was that Ouyang, the brigade commander, actually gave each person five travel expenses and two bottles of "burning on fire", which made the soldiers of the special brigade even more grateful to Ouyang.The human heart is always fleshy, and comparing the heart with the heart can always be exchanged for understanding and gratitude.

Except for Sanlang, Wulang, Qin Feng and Zhao Danyang, the other three brothers of Ouyang also went back home to visit their relatives.Sanlang was busy with Chu Xiang, and his wife's belly was getting bigger day by day, and it was estimated that she would give birth in two months; Kiss me and me, it can be said that work and love are balanced, but in Ouyang's view, these people are in their thirties, and the sweetness is also sour enough.As for Qin Feng, who is completely clean, he told Ouyang to see his master and left in a hurry; Zhao Danyang has a good girl in the city, and he never sees anyone.

"Lonely and widowed people are clean!" Ouyang muttered, but he was not used to the sudden silence.He prefers the simple and direct way in the army, and he doesn't like the many trivial matters that he has to deal with after leaving the barracks. It must be seen by the owner.The account book was one foot thick, and it was not Ouyang's later generation's accounting method, which made Ouyang dizzy.In fact, the restaurant and blacksmith shop he runs have an internal account, which is in Yunniang's hands.Its bookkeeping method is the double-entry bookkeeping of Ouyang Hands-on Church, which is clear at a glance.It's just that only Ouyang, Yunniang, and the old lady Li Wangshi know this, and no one else knows.Ouyang also gave Yunniang time to discuss the accounting method with the old shopkeeper several times, but Wang Shiwen said that he could not adapt to the things he had used for a lifetime, so he had to give up.

Speaking of business, the corners of Ouyang's mouth curled up involuntarily.What I bring to this restaurant is far from what Datang can compare to. It can be said that there is no rival in Jinyang, and all business is booming.If you really let yourself be a secretary of the household department, it's better to kill yourself as soon as possible; but let yourself run a restaurant or chain business, Ouyang is somewhat sure with his superiority for more than a thousand years.The business of the restaurant is slightly worse than Ouyang's expectation. Ouyang somewhat overestimated Jinyang's spending power. The restaurant's daily net profit is now maintained at around 180 taels, and with the business of the blacksmith shop, it will be almost 40 taels a day. Three [-] taels of money went into the treasury.

In Ouyang's opinion, this is not satisfactory, but in the eyes of Wang Shiwen, the old shopkeeper who has been in business for many years, it seems that it is an existence against the sky. Thinking about Ouyang's original purchase of the restaurant, it only cost more than 200 taels of silver, which is already a good price.Ouyang's daily income can buy a restaurant, what is the concept?Not to mention Yun Niang, the shopkeeper on the bright side of the restaurant. Since the opening of the restaurant, she seems to have changed her personality. She is cheerful all day long, and her temperament has gradually changed inadvertently, becoming more and more like a later generation. successful career woman, strong.Even Ouyang, the founder and largest shareholder, sometimes has to lament that once a woman unleashes her enthusiasm, it is really scary.

The real profit of Panlong Restaurant is not on the first and second floors, but in the various exquisite boxes on the third floor.The first and second floors earn a small profit and get a good reputation by the way; those who come to the third floor are either officials or rich people, and they don’t care about the money when they come here occasionally.As for the fourth floor, no one has climbed to the top until now by breaking the couplets. I don’t know how many conceited scholars are attracted to sigh and linger in front of the couplets every day.For them, it was an inexplicable honor and satisfaction to be the first to reach the top by breaking this couplet, and it brought them more than just honor.From time to time, after some research, they choose the elegant seats on the second floor or the private rooms on the third floor, order a few small dishes, a pot of hot wine, chat with friends or continue to discuss, which brings a lot of business to the restaurant, and even some Potential customers - scholars.

So far, no one has withdrawn gold by shares. The money in the basement in the backyard of the house has reached tens of thousands of taels of silver. Of course, the real income is more than this amount. The research and development funds, the cost of special brigade equipment, and of course the cost of adopting ten teenagers is also a lot. Ouyang is willing to spend money for them, just hoping to cultivate some kindling.

Yunniang, the big butler, never asked or stopped Ouyang about this. As long as Ouyang said something, he would withdraw the money quickly without even asking.

"It's worthless to save money, you have to find a way to make it flow!" Ouyang knows very well that money will not have children if it is put there, and it must be invested or used to make more money, so in the two days since I came back, I caught it. Think about it in your free time.He knows how profitable his business is now, and sooner or later he will attract the envy of his peers or people with ulterior motives. He secretly thinks that his future business will be wider, and he must bring in several people to invest together to reduce risks.

I was leaning against the phase question under the big tree, when suddenly a pair of fragrant, soft and slippery hands covered my eyes.Just hearing a "giggle" smile, someone asked, "Guess who I am?"

Ouyang sniffed his nose hard, made a loud noise on purpose, and then said affirmatively, "Sister Chunliu?"

"..."

"Then, is the little red girl?"

"Humph!"

"Strange, could it be Sister Nightingale?"

"Damn you!" Hearing a soft reprimand, Ouyang felt that the soft flesh around his waist was about to be crushed, so he quickly raised his hands and said, "I know I'm wrong, I know I'm wrong! My Han Good girl Xi!"

Han Xi turned to Ouyang and gave him a white look, the eyes were watery, and Ouyang's bones were a little bit brittle, so he smashed the small ball fan in his hand on Ouyang, and said angrily: "Brother Ouyang, you are not serious! Can't you just say people's names at once? If you have to make up so many unfounded women's names, you're not afraid that someone will come to you!"

Ouyang looked at the eighteen-year-old girl in front of him, who had a bit of the temperament of her sister Yunniang, and thought to himself if he said it directly, it would be interesting, and every time he said a few words like this, he would suffer again Don't you enjoy it too?But after thinking about it, he didn't dare to say it to this little nemesis after all, so he had no choice but to say: "Sister, brother knows his mistake. I won't do it next time! Guaranteed to hit the mark!"

Han Xi also realized her ambiguity, and a blush appeared on her delicate face, which made Ouyang scream in his heart. "Brother Ouyang, tell me the story quickly. I was so fascinated by what you told me two days ago, it was like being stunned. What happened to that Lin Daiyu?"

Ouyang smiled wryly. When he came back the day before yesterday and saw the little girl was bored, he told her about "Dream of Red Mansions" in the future. He didn't want to get out of control. The little girl pestered him as soon as she saw that she was idle. She knew that, anyway, she couldn't tear off a piece of plaster stuck to it.But firstly, the relationship between the two started from the time I first entered this world, and it was relatively deep, and then it was the Eighteen Changes of the Girl's University, and the girl who was already good-looking was the "Eighteen Changes of the Girl's University", and she became more and more mature. up.In addition, after coming to Jinyang, life gradually improved, and his figure, skin, and clothing almost changed all of a sudden.Now it can be described as a slim little beauty.Ouyang has this little beautiful girl by his side, so why not do it?

Of course, if Di Xue and Xia He came, naturally the battle group of two would become a battle group of four.Di Xue often comes to Ouyang's house, and has already become very familiar with the female family members at home.After a long time, she could more or less hear or see Han Xi's affection for her future husband. Although she laughed bitterly for a while, she had already figured it out, so she showed the grace of a "big woman" intentionally or unintentionally. And mind, often the four of them are laughing and joking, but nothing is right.

"It is said that after Qin Zhong's death, Baoyu wept bitterly. Li Gui and others finally persuaded him to stay for half a day, but when he returned, he was still mournful. Jiamu helped dozens of taels of silver, and prepared another funeral ceremony. Baoyu went to hang paper. Seven In the future, the funeral will be sent and buried, and there is no other record. Only Baoyu misses and mourns day by day, but there is nothing to do. I don’t know how long it will be..." Ouyang had no choice but to start his journey as a storyteller, trying his best to find out He recalled the "Dream of Red Mansions" he had read, and tried to tell this little girl as authentically as possible.It doesn't matter, if you forget, there is a backup in Goldfinger's mobile phone, so it's okay to take it out and review it.

Looking at the little girl's frown gradually, it was a sign that Han Xi was engrossed in listening.I couldn't help asking myself: "Do I have to be tied with her red line?"
