It's not yet dawn.
There was a knock on Cui Shenji's door.
Old Wu opened the door with a resentful face, and a jingle came into his ears...
"Good morning, Old Wu, hello, Old Wu!"
"Old Wu looks so young."
"Hook up the fat sister-in-law next door."
"Three times five divided by two."
"Take off your big cotton-padded jacket."
"Let's sleep together."
"How do I know?"
"It's your fault for being so arrogant."
"The bed creaked."
"The sound was like a cannon."
"Don't blame me."
"I say hello to you!"
"Ouch, ouch..."
"Good morning, Lao Wu!"
After the jingle, Cui Shenji slipped into Wei Mansion.
Old Wu was left alone at the door, messy in the wind.
Ever since Cui Yixuan praised him in the court that he could write poetry.
Cui Shenji was addicted to it and couldn't extricate himself.
"Asshole!" Old Wu roared.
A porter must be found.
Otherwise I won’t do this job!
He is also a housekeeper, but someone else has a lot of servants and maids under him!
And me?
Not to mention the large amount of work and the small amount of wages.
I have to endure this inhuman torture every day!
"Hey, Old Wu is up."
A hawker who passed by early in the morning to set up a stall, carrying a load, greeted him warmly.
"Why do you want to get up? Am I willing to get up?"
Lao Wu stared and shouted: "Come here, how do you sell those vegetables?"
"One penny and four bundles."
"fart."
Old Wu scolded: "Everyone else has one penny and six bundles, but you only have four bundles?"
"Then find someone else to buy it!"
The vendors walked away carrying their poles.
"stop!"
Lao Wu stepped forward and grabbed the other person: "I have to buy yours today."
"What do you want to do?"
The vendor was not afraid: "Tell you, if you bully me, I will ask Wei Shizhong to judge!"
Old Wu's face darkened.
Other people's housekeepers are so domineering, how dare I, a street vendor, give me such a slap in the face?
no.
I have to deal with you today.
"What are you looking for, sir? I'll reason with you!"
Old Wu pulled the vendor to the door.
The vendor hesitated.
After all, he is the big housekeeper, so maybe we can work it out.
"I'm telling you, if you gave me a cheaper price, I would buy them all."
"How about one penny and seven bundles?"
What the hell?
Wasn’t it just one penny and six bundles? Why did it become seven bundles?
"Let go."
The vendor struggled angrily, trying to break away from the sleeve held by Old Wu: "If you don't let go, I'll call you Wei Shizhong."
"I told you to reason with me."
Old Wu glared fiercely: "If you sell the vegetables directly to me, you can go home and hug your mother-in-law."
"Hug the hell out of you!"
The vendor counterattacked without timidity: "If you can't sell it for money, go back to my mother-in-law and scratch me!"
"Coward!"
Old Wu showed contempt: "There is no other man like you."
"Who said there is no one left?"
The vendor frowned and retorted: "That's how the house servant shoots!"
Old Wu was stunned.
I was speechless at this answer.
"Stop criticizing the servants behind your back."
Lao Wu scolded: "If someone hears it, I will take you to the Yamen and get slapped."
Only then did the vendor realize that he was being a bit unscrupulous.
He shut his mouth immediately.
"Seven bundles for one penny, the Wei family will cover all your dishes." Old Wu began to bargain again.
"No sale, no sale!"
The vendor shook his head repeatedly: "One penny and seven bundles, why don't I drink northwest wind this year?"
"What northwest wind?"
Old Wu said disdainfully: "You have to pay stall fees when you go to the market to sell."
“Sell it to me now and save this money!”
Makes sense.
But we don’t accept this.
"I pay taxes and I'm proud."
"I donate fabrics to the Tang Dynasty!"
Fuck you!
Being woken up by Choi Shin-ki early in the morning was enough.
He caught him casually and caught someone with such a stupid mouth?
How about I clean you up today...
I, Old Wu, will give up my position as housekeeper to you!
"If you sell the vegetables earlier, wouldn't you be able to work elsewhere?"
Old Wu continued: "Will I make more money this way?"
Huh.
The vendor was lost in thought.
My mother-in-law grows vegetables at home.
When you are free, you can find a job outside.
This seems good.
but……
"It's so easy to find a job, why should I sell vegetables?"
"If you don't find a job, you can only sell vegetables every day!"
"I have vegetables to sell, and I can find work on the way."
"If you can't sell your vegetables, your mother-in-law will scratch you, and your son will scold you..."
"If I can't sell it, I'll sell it to you. Your picky butler will want it!"
Fuck you.
If I don't accept it, what can you do to us?
Forget it, it’s not easy for the folks in the countryside, let’s give in again.
"Do you know what my young master does?" Old Wu let go.
"Official!"
The vendor replied angrily.
After pulling it apart for so long, the sleeves were almost torn.
"My young master is in charge of the commercial department!"
"Does the Ministry of Commerce understand?"
"That's in charge of businessmen..."
"As long as my young master says a word..."
"There are jobs in Chang'an for you to choose from!"
Oh, shit!
The vendor immediately changed his face.
Put down the pole and show a flattering smile...
"Old Wu...ah, Butler Wu, don't mind."
After just a few words, his voice changed: "Can you really find us a job?"
snort.
Old Wu nodded proudly: "Isn't that right?"
"I tell you……"
"Young Master, I made you big after shit and piss."
"I took care of his food and clothing when he was a child!"
The vendor nodded repeatedly.
"Yes, yes, who in Quan Chang'an still doesn't know your reputation as Butler Wu!"
"I don't know what this life is like..."
While talking, the vendor secretly slipped in a few pennies.
"Let go!"
This time it was Old Wu's turn to wave away: "You dare to bribe me, am I the kind of person who accepts bribes?"
"Yes Yes Yes."
The vendor nodded repeatedly.
"Um?"
Old Wu snorted with dissatisfaction.
"Huh? No, no."
The vendor hurriedly changed his words: "I mean, Mr. Wu, you are the most upright person."
Old Wu nodded with satisfaction.
"I tell you……"
"When there is a recruitment opportunity next time, I can talk to the young master about it!"
It turned out to be a big cake.
The vendor was slightly disappointed.
But it's better than nothing.
The salary for the job the Wei family is looking for should not be too bad.
"Then, Butler Wu, please pay more attention." The vendor said with a smile.
However, Lao Wu didn't reply.
Just looking at the vegetables in the basket.
"Seven bundles for one penny, deal!" the vendor said enthusiastically.
That's right.
You dare to yell at this housekeeper, and you don’t even look at how much you weigh.
"Sell it to me, Wei Mansion, and you'll make a lot of money!"
Old Wu put on a victor's attitude: "You can try another housekeeper..."
"Not only do they deduct money from you, they also take kickbacks!"
"My butler... doesn't want these!"
Pooh.
Don’t you want it?
Dare you give me a penny and see if Wei Shizhong can spray you to death?
"Yes Yes Yes."
The vendors repeatedly echoed: "There is no butler in Chang'an who can compare with you."
snort.
Old Wu raised his head like a victorious old rooster.
"Old Wu, it's not good."
At this moment, a figure hurried over.
"It's not good early in the morning. Who are you cursing?"
Old Wu said without looking back, still arrogantly instructing the vendors to carry vegetables to the house.
"Your grandson is sick...it seems to be smallpox!"
What?
Old Wu's body trembled.
I was so scared that I almost fell to the ground.
Smallpox was a terminal disease in the Tang Dynasty!
what to do? what to do?
correct.
The young master seems to have said that Dr. Sun is in Hu County.
Old Wu hurriedly stepped into the door...
