The last time Li Zexuan saw Gu Xiaomao was a month ago. At that time, the "second phase project" of the academy had just started. Gu Xiaomao was still the deputy captain of the eighth team of the first regiment (the position of captain has always been Li Tai's). By chance, , Li Zexuan understood the "simple" ideal in the heart of this little man, Gu Xiaomao.
Therefore, after the "second phase project" of the academy was completed a few days ago, Li Zexuan allocated a small house from the academy (approximately equivalent to more than fifty square meters in modern times, not too small, not too big). Used to open a shop for Gu Xiaomao.
It is said that this small house was originally used as a small warehouse for temporary storage of equipment in the future. It is located between the teaching building and the dormitory building. The location is not bad, and it is suitable for Gu Xiaomao to open a store.
It's not that Li Zexuan is stingy and reluctant to give him a big house, but with Gu Xiaomao's current wealth, even if he is given a big house, he won't be able to fill it with the goods he bought!
After entering this small house, Li Zexuan sat down and looked around. He saw shelves lined with shelves filled with all kinds of goods, including candied fruits, nuts and other snacks, as well as soap bars, The arrangement of daily necessities such as sweat towels and wooden basins looks like a modern version of a supermarket!
This idea was what Li Zexuan told Gu Xiaomao. Supermarkets, a product that transcended the times, could definitely make money in the Tang Dynasty. When Li Zexuan first time traveled over, he also thought about building a supermarket, but for a time traveler like him, , there are so many ways to make money, and I have never had time to do this.
Li Zexuan saw that Gu Xiaomao was a very down-to-earth young man, so he gave him this worthless idea.
"Uncle Gu, I heard that Xiao Mao's mother has been ill. How is she doing now?"
Li Zexuan asked with a smile after looking at the furnishings in the room.
When Li Zexuan called him "Uncle Gu" and "Uncle Gu", the old man was so flattered that he didn't know where to put his hands. At this moment, he quickly replied:
"How can my mother-in-law He De make the Marquis remember her? Gu Xiaomao worked here before and took a lot of money to go home. This kid has been filial since he was a child. After getting the money, he ignored his mother's dissuasion and hired the Huichen Hall in Chang'an City. The doctor helped with the diagnosis and treatment, and also prescribed a lot of medicine. His mother’s condition is now basically stable, and she can only take care of her later to see if the root cause of the disease can be cured~!”
Li Zexuan nodded repeatedly when he heard this. He looked at Gu Xiaomao and said, "Xiao Mao, your whole family depends on you now, oh, it should depend on your small shop. You must do a good job in the future! Not only do you want to If your parents and sister are living well, you must bring convenience to all the teachers and students in the academy! Do you understand? When Divine Doctor Sun comes to Chang'an again, I will ask him to help your mother see a doctor!"
There was a woman standing behind the door, who was Gu Xiaomao's sister. When she heard Li Zexuan mentioning herself, she couldn't help but look up at Li Zexuan.
It's not that she has any bad thoughts about Li Zexuan, it's just simple admiration. After all, what girl doesn't admire heroes? Li Zexuan was well-known at a young age. He was smart, brave, and handsome. He could be called an excellent husband-in-law candidate.
This girl's family knew about her family affairs and knew that there would be no possibility between her and Li Zexuan, so she never had that thought from the beginning to the end. She just hoped that her younger brother could learn skills from Li Zexuan and become a follower of Li Zexuan in the future. Just someone as powerful as Li Zexuan will do!
"Thank you, Mr. Shan~! Don't worry! I will definitely work hard and make this shop a good one!"
Gu Xiaomao agreed seriously.
"Don't worry, Lord Marquis! If Xiaomao doesn't provide convenience to the students and gentlemen of the academy, I will be the first to disobey him, old man!
The old man also quickly promised.
"Haha~! Okay! It's not that serious! I can still trust Xiaomao~!"
Li Zexuan chuckled.
Afterwards, he chatted with the father and son for a few more words, then stood up and left. After all, they were still busy cleaning the shop!
"Hey~! Chief Shan, can you help me write some words for my shop?"
Just when Li Zexuan was about to leave, Gu Xiaomao whispered and said loudly.
Li Zexuan immediately paused on the spot!
inscription?
What does this guy mean? You're not messing with him on purpose, are you? The reason why I think so is because he, Li Zexuan, has been here for so long and has never done anything like writing inscriptions on people!
Although his calligraphy is now decent and better than most people's, but compared with famous calligraphers such as Chu Suiliang and Yu Shinan, he is still far behind, right? Where can I get this?
"Ahem! Xiaomao! How about I go back and ask Dr. Chu to write some words for you?"
Li Zexuan coughed twice and said.
Gu Xiaomao trembled and waved his hands quickly: "Chief, no, no need! This little shop was given to me by you, of course it must be named by you~!"
This kid is really a fool! I don’t want any of Chu Suiliang’s calligraphy!
Li Zexuan had no choice but to nod and say: "Okay! Get a pen and paper!"
"Hey! Chief, please wait a moment!"
Gu Xiaomao agreed excitedly, and after a while, he brought out pens, ink, paper and inkstones. Li Zexuan even doubted whether this kid had been prepared.
Li Zexuan was stunned again when he mentioned the brush. What should he write? At this moment, many modern supermarket names appeared in his mind, such as Wal-Mart, RT-Mart, China Resources Vanguard, Bailian, Wumart... But writing these names down was a bit too cunning, because these names were too confusing to ancient people. , most of them have no meaning. You can't harm Gu Xiaomao just because of your own whim!
"Well, I have it!"
An idea flashed in Li Zexuan's mind, and then he calmed down, moved his wrist slightly, and wrote the four characters "You have a small shop" on the rice paper! He uses regular script. In his previous life, he practiced regular script a lot, so he was relatively good at it!
"There is...a...small...shop! Hey! Chief Shan, your name is really good~!"
After staying in the academic holy place of Yanhuang Academy for a long time, Gu Xiaomao was able to recognize a few simple words. He carefully put away the rice paper and chuckled.
Li Zexuan said happily: "You guys, tell me, what's so good about this name?"
"Uh... Anyway, as long as it's written by the mountain chief, it must be good!"
Gu Xiaomao was mumbling for a long time and couldn't explain the reason, so he could only laugh innocently.
Li Zexuan shook his head and said: "Xiao Mao! A man, a great man, walking in the world, worthy of heaven and earth, parents, wife, children, brothers and sisters! I hope you can rely on this small shop to make your family live a better life." Good life!"
After saying that, Li Zexuan nodded to Old Man Gu, turned around and left.
