Seeking Happiness Chapter 38: Street idlers
In fact, Gu Xihe shouldn't complain anymore. The most unlucky thing is that the book boy dyes ink.
The second master is sick and can't hold things, so he holds it.
As a woman, the mistress can't take things, he takes it.
Four masters are busy walking around, so there is no time to get things, he holds them.
As a result, the things he held in his hand were full, covering his eyes, and he couldn't even see the road. He had to stare at the three people closely to prevent them from wandering away.
The hardest job in the world is this.
He used to fight with Diyan for whom he would go out with the fourth master. Now he feels deeply regretful. He knew it would be like this, so he would stop fighting. Maybe he can still sit in Shengmei Pavilion at this moment. Eat fragrant and spicy.
Shu Huan was at last a little bit better than the other two people. It was a little overwhelming to see that he was so tired from dyeing ink and sweating and his clothes were mostly wet. After all, this book boy looks only one or two years older than Gu Xihe He looks like a child!
She reached out and took some boxes from Yanmo to hold.
has to stop dyeing the ink, but my hands can’t be free, so I can’t stop it, so I have to say with a bitter expression: "Don’t do it, let the little one take it for you."
Shu Huan shook her head and said: "No, I am cleaning inkstones now. It's weird not to take something."
said that, but Yanmo still didn't dare to bother her, chasing after her, and begging her to put things back again.
was so annoyed, Shu Huan glanced around.
She remembered seeing a lot of rough-dressed idlers wandering nearby, and she asked Gu Xihe to find out that those people were gangsters on the street when they had nothing to do, and they specialized in delivering messages for others and buying and delivering things. , So I want to spend some money to find someone to help get things.
It’s just that she doesn’t know much about this profession, she doesn’t know how to pick people, and she feels that those idlers look like street hooligans, for fear that if they didn’t pick it well, they would be rushed for something. Asking for trouble.
was hesitating, and suddenly she was taken aback by the piercing eyes.
was stunned, not because the gaze in those eyes was too sharp, but on the contrary, when she looked closely, she found that the bright color in those eyes disappeared without a trace, and it looked dull. It seemed that the glance just now was just her dazzling.
"How?"
In this moment of shock, Gu Xiran had noticed her abnormality and stopped.
Shu Huan had no words, but raised his chin and pointed in the direction where the man was standing.
Gu Xiran followed her instructions and saw a young man standing against the wall. He was in his early twenties. He was dressed in coarse cloth with patches on it, but he was unusually clean and tidy.
When looked at it, the young man had already walked towards them: "Excuse me, are you going to hire someone..."
Shu Huan hasn’t answered yet. The idle guys on the street, seeing that there seems to be a business here, they gathered around three or four, one of them reached out and pushed the young man away, while the others nodded and bowed. attentive.
"Where are the masters going, do you want someone to help with things?"
"Sent to the north and east of the city, only ten copper plates are required, and if it is sent to the south and west of the city, only 20 copper plates."
Some said, they moved their hands, went to pick up the things held by dye ink, and smiled: "Master, the things are too heavy, let me hold them for you!"
……
Staining ink is often sent out to buy things. I teach these idlers to surround themselves and not panic. They just see that the two masters around me have not spoken. How dare you hire someone to get things? Hidden and said: "Go go, don't make trouble!"
is chaotic here, but Gu Xiran only pays attention to the young man just now. After seeing him staggered, his face doesn't change, but he tightens his fists, loosens them, and turns around to leave. He raised his head and shouted to him: "Please wait a moment."
said a word, the idle guys were no longer messed up, and the young man turned his face slightly surprised and said: "Call me?"
Gu Xiran nodded, and said to the idlers: "Everyone, I'm sorry, I plan to hire him, please go elsewhere."
He was polite, and the idlers were reluctant and had nothing to do. They were about to disperse, and when they saw the one who had just pushed, he turned his face and gave the young man a fierce look, and then said to Gu Xiran. "Master, you probably don’t know. My brothers usually talk about life on this street. The shopkeepers in the nearby shops are familiar with us. If you want to give something, you can get it with one call. You are not home yet. I’m here first! In case something goes wrong, just go here to find us, unlike the one who didn’t know where you came from, you didn’t know where to find someone if you broke your stuff!"
What he said made sense and meant something.
Gu Xiran nodded slightly while listening.
The man thought he had won the business, and he was overjoyed: "That..."
As soon as said the words, they were cut off by Gu Xiran with a smile: "Next time!"
……
The idlers flew away helplessly. When they passed by the young man, they all stretched out and pushed him twice, and some people spit at him.
The young man bowed his head and said nothing, with an extremely silent and persevering attitude. On the contrary, he frowned slightly when he saw Shu Huan. He felt that these idlers were really like scumbags, grabbing a business, and doing it like grabbing territory.
Actually she guessed right~ IndoMTL.com~ These people occasionally also work part-time and take the place very seriously, but in most cases they will stand by themselves, even if they want to bully, rely on them for years of fighting on the street. Hun's experience, with a glance at his eyes, he can guess the identity of the other party's three-six-nineth class, who can provoke and who can't be touched, completely clear at a glance.
Not to mention these idlers, just say that the young man took the things in dyed ink's hand, and said nothing, or even followed behind them without asking for a price. If you don’t pay attention, you can even Ignore his existence.
The four of them strolled around the street for a while, and the sun had already risen high. Gu Xihe was hungry and was not happy to go shopping anymore. He picked up a restaurant with a good reputation and was going to have a meal.
Someone paid for a treat. Naturally, Shu Huan and Gu Xiran would not object. Besides, they were tired from shopping and were looking for a place to rest, so they followed into the restaurant and looked for a seat in the restaurant.
It is a pity that the seats are full, and the four of them are indeed exhausted. They are not happy to move again, so they find a table by the window and sit down.
There is a difference between the master and the servant. Stained ink does not dare to sit and stands by.
Shu Huan was taken aback when he saw him behave like this. She felt like she should stand up too, but she was really tired, and she didn’t want to move anymore after her buttocks stuck to the chair. She was hesitating, just listen to Gu Xiran. A cry: "Sit down, too."
Yanmo looked terrified: "Little ones dare not."
Gu Xiran said lightly: "It's not at home, there are not so many rules."
Staining ink is still hesitating, and Gu Xihe is already impatient: "Let you sit down and sit down, do something big, what are you doing like this?"
said, he took out a small piece of silver from his purse, slapped it on the table with great pride and shouted: "Serve the best wine, the best food, don't save money for the Lord!"
