Chapter 479 Two crazy old men
Fang Fengshi insisted on his own and gave Guo Dan the order for the bird gun. Soon he paid some price for it, not mainly lies in the Ministry of War. After all, he is still respected in the Ministry of War, and the key is the Censorate.
The censors of the Censorate are really mortal enemies of Guo Dan. As the deputy Censor, Fang Fengshi took the initiative to cooperate with Guo Dan, which made many Censors very unhappy.
Many censors directly questioned Fang Fengshi, and Fang Fengshi explained to them calmly. As for whether they could listen, Fang Fengshi actually didn't care. Now he only wanted to promote the development of firearms and fulfill the unfinished dreams of several generals.
Because Fang Fengshi took the initiative to find Guo Dan, the ministers naturally could not find trouble for Guo Dan or Wanli as before.
However, Guo Danke did not have a leisure time because he had to go to Weihui Mansion to deliver orders immediately, because bird guns are also very important to him. However, there is no workshop for Weihui Mansion to produce bird guns, so he had to arrange it himself. Moreover, he originally planned to go to Kaifeng Mansion to handle some aftermath matters.
After receiving the order, Guo Dan and Aunt Xu and Yang Feixu set off for Weihui Mansion.
The journey was fast and fast, but when I passed by Zhangde Mansion, I stayed at the Zhao Prince's Mansion for a night and asked about the development of Zhangde Mansion.
In fact, if you don’t ask, you will know that along the way, there are hotels and tea shops on both sides of the road, merchants and scholars are coming and going, and there are endless prosperity.
Zhangde Mansion was very lucky. As soon as it opened, it encountered the explosion of Weihui Mansion. A large amount of goods were shipped to the capital. This back and forth could create a lot of profits.
Unlike Kaifeng Prefecture and Weihui Prefecture, the development of Zhangde Prefecture is concentrated on both sides of the road.
In just a moment, the road to Zhangde Mansion was built wider and flatter than that of Weihui Mansion.
The better the road, the more the merchants go here, the more they earn.
Of course, the Zhao royal family benefited deeply. They controlled a large amount of grain, salt, vegetables, etc., and the income increased a lot, while Guo Dan had to share half of the extra income.
King Zhao felt a little depressed because Guo Dan did not do much. The two of them chatted all night last time, but the market demand has increased, so of course he made a lot of money, but he did not dare to break the contract, and he was not stupid. The dealings were all because of Wei Hui Mansion. Guo Dan gave the order, and all this might be gone.
This money must be given.
Guo Dan has no energy to manage Zhangde Mansion for the time being. The key is that no one can help him with this matter. His plan is to rely on transportation to support him first, and after Kaifeng Mansion is finished, he will turn around and take care of it.
After two more days of walking, they came to Weihui Mansion.
"Well!"
The carriage stopped in response.
Guo Dan's body shook and asked, "What's the matter?"
The coachman hurriedly replied, "Son-in-law, there are a few little kids running around on the roadside, and the villain is afraid of hitting them."
Another tender voice sounded outside the car, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, we didn't mean it."
The sound is gradually fading away.
Guo Dan lifted the curtain and looked at it. He saw five or six little kids under ten years old chasing a small ball on the grass by the roadside. However, they consciously kicked into the middle of the lawn and couldn't help but smile.
Suddenly, Aunt Xu, who was behind, had already got off the carriage, and couldn't help but get off the carriage.
“I never thought your sports league would succeed so quickly.”
Aunt Xu walked up and said, while looking around.
Guo Dan looked around and found that there were not only a group of little kids playing football on the grass, but there were also many people playing chess and poker in the pavilion by the river. There were more people watching. He smiled and said, "Umbrellas always sell surprisingly fast on rainy days."
Aunt Xu nodded and said curiously: "Everyone knows this principle, but why are you the ones who succeed?"
"I only understand the difference in this statement by lay people." Guo Dan shook his head and said, "The umbrella can only be sold surprisingly well when it rains, but the arable land is profitable and it is safe to make money. In comparison, I am just a lucky stupid businessman."
Aunt Xu pondered: "So that's it."
Whether this sports league can make money is a matter of a later story, but you have to invest a lot of money in the early stage, but you will definitely not lose money when buying land. Since that is the case, who is willing to spend money to build this sports league?
Guo Dan took a deep breath, stretched his arms again, and said, "Mr., this place is not far from the city. We just walked over and sat in the car door, which was very boring."
"That's what it means."
Yang Feixu also got off the horse, and the three of them walked southwest along the river.
They have only been away for many days, but today's Weihui Mansion gives Aunt Xu a very different feeling. She saw no longer passing by, laughter and joy everywhere, as if she became even more energetic, and all of this was because of the Sports League.
If happiness is priceless, then Guo Dan really made a huge profit in an understatement.
But one situation has not changed.
It was because the people passed by along the way, so they naturally greeted Guo Dan and Aunt Xu.
"Mrs. Guo" was very casual.
Guo Dan and Aunt Xu felt helpless about this, and these two smart people didn't know how to explain it.
When they arrived in front of the city gate, the congested city gate forced them to enter the city from the stairs next to them. Although the reconstruction of the city wall has been approved, it requires a lot of preparations and has not yet begun to be demolished.
"Prince Guo."
As soon as I arrived in the city, I suddenly heard someone shouting.
Guo Dan turned his head and saw a young man dressed up in a dress, asking, "What are you?"
"Li Hua is from Nanjing."
"It turns out that it's Li Caizi, who is disrespectful, disrespectful." Guo Dangong bowed, but his face was full of confusion. He didn't know this person.
Li Hua said: "I wonder if Master Guo, why do you only hold chess and poker competitions instead of poetry and painting competitions?"
Guo Dan laughed in silence: "Li Caizi is really a complimentary person. He is just a small businessman. I can't even understand the poetry and paintings myself. How can I have the nerve to hold a poetry and painting competition? Isn't that a joke?"
Li Hua nodded slightly and said, "Person Guo's words are reasonable."
Aunt Xu shook her head secretly, feeling that Li Hua was another nerd.
Guo Dan held a sports league to find fun for the people, because the people are making money for him every day. The literati's fun, and he will not waste his life. He also thinks that the matter is not enough.
"Feel sorry."
Guo Dan nodded slightly and walked forward.
Before he took two steps, he saw a pile of bun meat stuffed with meat at his feet, and immediately rushed up a yellow dog and swallowed the meat stuffed with one bite, without even the residue left.
Guo Dan turned his head and saw a bald man in his sixties or seventies standing in front of the bun stall on the street. He was probably not washed for a while. He had a pair of straw sandals under his feet and there were still bloodstains on his naked feet.
The old man grabbed another big meat bun, opened it with both hands, threw the meat stuffing on the ground, and fed the yellow dog under his feet, but he ate the bun skin in big mouthfuls.
Yang Feixu and Guo Dan both felt very strange.
This is really a human being who eats worse than a dog!
Unexpectedly, dog lovers are so crazy these days. Guo Dan shook his head and was about to leave, the old man suddenly saw a scar on his forehead, straight down to his chin, as if he had split his face, which was shocking, but his eyes were bright and bright.
"Pay!"
The old man suddenly turned his finger and pointed to the bun stall.
Guo Dan looked around and said, "Are you talking to me?"
The old man said, "Do you have the habit of asking women to pay?"
"I want to have it, but unfortunately I haven't developed it." Guo Danqing couldn't help but eat the past that failed and asked again: "But why should I pay for you?"
The old man bulged his eyes and said, "How can there be so many whys? Everyone asks me why, but I'm already crazy."
It turned out to be a crazy man! Guo Tan smiled and said, "If everyone asks me to pay, I will be crazy too. I see how much money you should be worth. This is the only one I can help you."
"It's just a few buns, as the saying goes, help others." Aunt Xu suddenly whispered.
Guo Dan turned around and looked at Aunt Xu in surprise.
Aunt Xu smiled and said, "Just treat it as doing good deeds."
"All right!"
Guo Dan walked up and took out five cents of silver to hand it to the woman who sold the buns, saying, "Eat all the five cents of silver, you have to let him pay first."
"You guy, you're so embarrassed, but I have something to do today, and I'll settle the score with you next time."
The old man cursed angrily, grabbed two buns and strode forward.
Suddenly, I heard a shout, "Old man Xu, don't run away."
Guo Dan looked back and saw an old man with white hair and hair chasing him with a medicine box on his back.
The bald old man turned around and cursed: "You crazy old man, you have been chasing me from Shanyin to chase me here. I have been forced by you to ask for money from the beggars, but it's really outrageous."
beggar?
Guo Dan thought to himself, he probably didn't point to me, right?
The old man carrying the medicine box couldn't help but stop and said angrily and hilariously: "I kindly paid for you, but you still scolded me. I'm crazy. I kindly want to help you treat you, but you still scolded me. I see that your conscience is really something that the dog can eat."
Guo Dan said aggrievedly: "Old sir, he doesn't necessarily mean me, I don't look like a beggar."
“That’s it, that’s it.”
The bald old man clapped his hands repeatedly and said excitedly: "Boy, come and judge who is the madman."
Guo Dan looked at the bald old man and thought to himself, of course you are more like him.
But he didn't say it out loud. It was normal for these two old men to behave. It was better to have less than more things.
The old man carrying the medicine box first gave Guo Dan two apologetic gazes, and then said to the bald old man: "Look at yourself, you are crazy, but you still don't know. Stop quickly and ask me to help you see. If you stay late, there will be no medicine for treatment."
"Will I be a normal person make you a crazy old man see you? Stop chasing me, or chase me, really let the dog bite you."
"You can't scare me. If I don't cure you today, I will never give up."
"If I ask you to treat it today, I will die with my eyes open."
The two old men were chasing each other while chasing each other.
Not to mention, both of them are fierce and fierce, and they are very quick-moving. In a short while, they disappear into the abortion.
Is this a scam that is popular nowadays? Guo Dan suddenly looked at Aunt Xu and said, "Actually, you didn't let me pay the money just now. Maybe I have to pay the money too, after all, this aunt is already stunned."
Aunt Xu was stunned at first, then subconsciously looked at the bun stall. She saw the aunt who bought the buns stretching her neck and searching for the two crazy old men in the crowd. Then she realized it and smiled and said, "Don't worry, this deal won't lose you."
Guo Dan frowned and said, "Do you know them?"
