Chapter 2 The Legendary Liu Dutou

The man with a big waist beside him said, "Shopkeeper, he is a thatched cottage, not a brick and tile structure, and is worth up to fifteen stakes according to the market price. How could he give so much?"

Old Chen still had a expressionless face, "If someone like him comes to mortgage his ancestral home, there will be great difficulties. Second, he is down-to-earth, filial and honest, and he will redeem his ancestral home for twice the price in the future. Third, I know that he is stared at, and he will definitely not bring money with him. Giving more is equivalent to charging him with his storage fee. Fourth, continue to live in the house, and the rent can be charged more according to the mortgage price. Five, there are certain risks in doing this, but if he survives the serious illness, it is a lucky person. In summary, I think it is worth helping him at this time. This is a mutually beneficial and high-quality investment."

...

Zhao Cheng first bought a pair of relatively sturdy shoes, which can protect his feet well and no longer suffer from any loss in equipment.

While trying on shoes, two young women were talking about passing by. Seeing Zhao Cheng's dirty look, they frowned and avoided them.

"I heard that the slut in Wangjiafang Lane was slept by Yang Daren."

"That old fool is really disgusting. His eyes are as bulging as goldfish, his belly is short and his stomach is big. He touched my butt last time."

"Liu Jia Erlang has touched your butt, why don't you scold him and blink at him?"

"The curtain accidentally fell on the street and was stepped on by him. What else can I do except blink a moment? Could it be that I say, 'Get out of the brothel and go to the brothel to find the madam'? He is a lie."

Zhao Cheng listened to their fierce discussions and watched them gradually fade away.

Well, I went to find a foot shop and asked the servant to start selling half a pound of meat, but it wasn't much. I ordered another big cake, and I lowered my head and started chewing it with relish.

I have never felt that the food was so delicious in my life and it was very delicious. But in the middle, I saw the two gangsters shaking outside the store and vaguely heard them talking:

"The waste seems to have money on it."

"It should be, otherwise he has always been stingy and will not eat wine and meat in it..."

I'm afraid of being missed by thieves!

Zhao Cheng thought about it and found a way to solve the problem. Fortunately, he should be in the slightly timid rookie stage when he heard these two raspy tones.

When I went out, I met Liu Dutou in the street market again. Now this guy looks a little drunk, walks a little crookedly, and wears a hat a bit funny. I guess the legendary Liu Jia Erlang who was stepping on the curtain of a beautiful woman to wink is this guy.

That's fine. In ancient times, otakus should only hide when encountering such a person, but Zhao Cheng instead met him, "Liu Du is the best."

This time, Liu Du didn't twitch the back of his head. He nodded slightly and ignored Zhao Cheng. He looked at an old man selling pears along the street next to him and asked, "How to sell pineapples?"

"One, one penny."

The old man was a little worried and took the initiative to choose a big one and hand it over, "If you want to try it, you won't charge any money, it's considered the filial piety of the young man."

Liu Dutou took the head and took a bite, but he didn't say anything more, and turned around and left.

Take this scene as an example, Zhao Cheng was a little interested in him.

People who are too bad and too rogue cannot make friends, but those who are better and more upright are not very useful when they make friends. They will be like those bureaucrats who do not do good things in the future, and they will not be able to control or be busy with other people's affairs. This guy is not too law-abiding, more direct, a bit robbery but a little bit contingent. Such people have a way and have more time, and as long as he is willing, he can solve other people's problems.

"Liu Dutou stayed."

Zhao Cheng went over and stuffed fifteen copper coins into his hands.

Liu Du weighed only fifteen dollars in his hand. Although it was small, he was still happy. He smiled at the servants around him and said, "This kid has some understanding."

After hesitating for a while, Liu Dutou said again: "I heard that you have just recovered from a serious illness, which is a special situation. So let's take a day off and then go to fill the soil the next day."

Zhao Cheng thought for a while but said, "Repairing rivers and preventing floods is a top priority for people's livelihood. How can you make Liu head embarrassed when there is insufficient manpower? I will arrive on time tomorrow."

Liu Du was stunned for a moment, pointed at his nose and laughed: "Besides being enlightened, you can be a human being. Do you believe it or not, this kid has a future."

The policeman next to him felt that Zhao Cheng was obviously brain-related.

"Go." Liu Du patted Zhao Cheng on the shoulder, and then turned around and left.

The two rascals from the distance across the street looked at each other. Even though it was dark this time, they knew that Zhao Cheng seemed to be carrying money, but they couldn't do anything when Zhao Cheng passed by.

After Zhao Cheng left, a ruffian murmured: "Why did this waste suddenly seem to have changed? I just saw that he and Liu Du were quite familiar with each other?"

...

It's also good to adapt. Zhao Cheng took the first step, but it was useless, but he saw hope of perseverance.

It’s good to have hope. The more difficult it is, the more people rely on hope to support them.

After I got home, I rummaged through the cabinets and found a rusty shovel and placed it next to the pillow to protect myself at night. In fact, I know that it is not very useful. My body is very thin, but I am ready to be slaughtered by others.

Hey, I found another potato under the bed.

I didn’t pay attention to the five I ate before. Now I look carefully. Compared with the potatoes in later generations, they have different colors and weight, so I’m more stressful.

Zhao Cheng didn't know whether the "mutated" potatoes could be cultivated for seeds. Even if it could, Zhao Cheng was a businessman and not an agricultural practitioner. He didn't know the process and temporarily did not understand the overall agricultural model environment of the Song Dynasty. Teams, technology, marketing, channels, promotion, the degree of acceptance of new things by the ancients, etc., were really a lot of issues involved.

In fact, the ancients never lacked secret recipes, almost every household had them, but there were too few people who rose up, so they basically had the same model: everything was inferior, but only high school reading. This was especially true in the Northern Song Dynasty.

Just like mortgaged the hut, a trace of prodigal thought flashed through my head: Just eat it.

Now I’m not hungry, but for some reason, Zhao Cheng just wanted to eat this potato.

So I roasted it again and ate it.

It was very delicious, and the refreshing feeling was like a flow of air, rushing to the back of the head, making Zhao Cheng feel a little dazed and drifty.

An illusion appeared, like the display flashed twice and the power was insufficient and the engine was turned off?

Looking around, Zhao Cheng had a strong premonition about what was going to happen, but it was almost the same and hadn't happened yet.

Could it be...

Looking for it in the room again.

I don’t know what to look for, but I can’t be exhausted if I try it.

Something must have happened, after all, time travel, which only happens in novels, has been encountered.

In this way, I found every inch of my home with curiosity, but this time I found nothing...

Zhao Cheng liked reading in his previous life.

Most of the time, chicken soup articles are nonsense, but it is correct because they are recognized by nonsense. There is a view that even if there is silver rain in the sky, you need to get up earlier than others and have better physical strength than others to pick it up. Every kind of success is not accidental.

Zhao Cheng got up very early and rushed to the river before dawn.

Service is a must. In fact, after understanding this point, it is not easy to complain about yourself. That is useless. Apart from bringing negative emotions to the people around you, you may not be able to really avoid being lazy, but you will definitely be able to make Liu Dutou and the supervisor at the same time.

The advantage is that the administration and human rights situation of the Northern Song Dynasty were relatively good in ancient times and they were rarely whipped.

However, overall, the entire construction site is lazy and inefficient. Liu Dutou could only sit under the pergola and curse. When he encountered complaining labor, he would slap people in the back of the head, but he could only do this. He had no other way to improve his efficiency.

However, at noon, Liu Dutou discovered that Zhao Cheng was the least lazy person and the one who spoke the least.

"Call that kid here."

Liu Dutou asked someone to find Zhao Cheng and said, "Give him a bowl of water."

Afterwards, Liu Du stood up and looked at the construction site from a distance frowned, "The rainy season is approaching, but the progress is much worse. I think you are doing things smoothly and you still know how to organize it. Do you have any experience in this project?"

Zhao Cheng was thinking down.

The surroundings are not very tempting, but since I have asked, I really hope someone can tell me one, two or three, otherwise the progress will be delayed, and the county master will really be able to draw people.

Liu Dutou was disappointed when he didn't get the answer in time, "Do you have any ideas?"

Zhao Cheng then said: "This is not very difficult. Now it is probably the situation where the three monks have no water to eat. Just follow the average amount yesterday and the day before yesterday, add a little, and then set the rules, and go home first. For the time being, this is the easiest way to implement it."

Liu Dutou hesitated for a while, "It sounds interesting. For the sake of public opinion, the county master is more indulgent to these people, so the head of Bendu is not convenient and rude. But if you drag it on like this, it will not be beneficial to the state, the county master, and the head of Bendu. Then... you will be responsible for a section and try it, and look at the effect first."

This is not a lucky thing. With Zhao Cheng's work attitude and efficiency, it is not surprising that Lao Liu thought of Zhao Cheng when he was blind. Especially yesterday, Zhao Cheng could speak and even gave him insignificant copper coins. Therefore, Lao Liu's probability of paying attention to Zhao Cheng among a group of ordinary people who are not easy to use is relatively high.

Liu Dutou asked again: "Are you sure?"

Zhao Cheng couldn't say it well, "The grasp is too big but not absolutely, but it won't get worse if you try it. If there are other situations, you can adjust it in time."
