Cheng Yaojin would not miss any opportunity to ridicule Heitan Tou.
He sneered, looked at Yuchi Gong with contempt and said:
"What about Heitan Tou, do you want to do this business?"
If he had been ridiculed like this by Cheng Yaojin according to his past temperament, Yuchi Gong would have had to argue with him no matter what.
But it doesn’t work now, that’s ten thousand guan.
I don’t even know how much money I can make, so I can’t mess around with this.
He raised his eyes and looked at everyone, feeling a little guilty and said to Qin Ming:
"My dear nephew, for such a big deal, I have to do some calculations to see how many shares are appropriate. Can you give me one night to think about it?"
After hearing this, Qin Ming thought for a while and said to everyone:
"Uncles, since Uncle Yuchi wants to think about it, how about we just talk about it today? It won't be too late for us to sign the contract after Uncle Yuchi has thought about it."
Cheng Yaojin thought for a while after hearing this, and then said:
"Now that we have said everything here, the sooner this business starts, the better. But we can't delay everyone's making money because of some people."
Qin Qiong heard what Cheng Yaojin meant, so she asked:
"What does Zhijie mean?"
Cheng Yaojin raised his eyebrows and glanced at Yu Chigong, who was silent on the side, then raised his neck and said:
"Everyone should go back and think about it tonight. Those who want to join us will pay the money and sign the contract at Ximeng Building in Dongshi tomorrow tomorrow. As for those who haven't arrived yet, it will be regarded as giving up. What do you think?"
Everyone nodded after hearing this.
In this way, the Qin Mansion's banquet ended in a hurry because of this small briquette.
...
It was already time for Qin Ming to send Cheng Yaojin and his party away.
Xiao Qingwan was very happy today because her young master was actually knighted. This was something she had never dared to think about before.
I have to go to the ancestral hall to tell the old lady the good news soon.
Thinking of this, she smiled and bowed to Qin Ming:
"I have met the man from Qin County. Congratulations to the man on his knighthood."
Xiao Qingwan's words as a county man made Qin Ming remember that he had just been focusing on suturing wounds and discussing business, and he actually forgot to ask about his official position.
It seems I can only ask again tomorrow.
Thinking of this, he helped Xiao Qingwan up and said:
"I still like to hear Wan'er call me Young Master."
Qingwan stood up with a smile after hearing this, walked beside Qin Ming with a cheerful face, took his arm and said with a smile:
"My slave, I obey. By the way, sir, you have been busy all day. Do you want to go back to your room and rest for a while?"
Qin Ming heard this and said:
"No, let's go back to the study first. I have to go to the palace tomorrow, and there will be a running water mat in the palace, so I have to make arrangements in advance."
Xiao Qingwan nodded after hearing this.
Then she thought about paying homage to the old lady. After a moment of hesitation, she said:
"Sir, you have been knighted by the imperial court today. According to custom, you must first go to the ancestral hall to pay homage to your ancestors and inform you of this matter."
"Since you don't plan to rest, why don't we go to the ancestral hall first and tell the old lady and A Lang the good news?"
Qin Ming was in a daze after hearing this.
Hearing Qingwan's words, he suddenly thought of his parents and friends in later generations.
Having been in the Tang Dynasty for so long, the people and events of later generations have become increasingly blurry.
He is becoming more and more accustomed to life in Datang, and at the same time he is also adapting to his own identity.
If it hadn't been for the recent burning of red bricks and cement in Zhuangzi, he would have even doubted whether his experiences in later generations were just a dream.
Seeing Qin Ming in a daze, Xiao Qingwan tugged on his sleeve and said cautiously:
"Master, Master."
Qin Ming came back to his senses and looked at Qingwan's worried eyes.
For some reason he suddenly felt that he was being a little pretentious.
Those experiences in later generations may be dreams or real.
He was already powerless to change.
After all, he doesn't have a shuttle, Goldfinger, and he can't go back.
So whether those were dreams or real experiences, it didn't matter to him now.
On the contrary, he was extremely convinced that people like Qin Mansion, Wan'er, and Chang Xi in front of him really existed.
There are also those children in the academy, Qin Da, Huang Bo, Zhang Bo...
By the way, there is also the old man. I wonder if the second uncle who is not a son of a man has treated him better.
These faces flashed through Qin Ming's mind one by one, washing Qin Ming's originally lonely soul over and over again.
These people were all working hard for the Qin government, and some even left their hometowns and went to Taiyuan and Yangzhou.
Rather than spending time worrying about those things, it is better to live a good life now.
I should work hard to repay those who have given me family, friendship, and love.
Let them all live their lives safely and healthily.
Thinking of this, Qin Ming's eyes became brighter and brighter, and his body seemed to feel much more relaxed.
Yes, I should have thought this way long ago.
From today on, he is Qin Ming, Lantian County, Tang Dynasty.
Xiao Qingwan, who had been staring at Qin Ming from the side, watched Qin Ming's expression change from nostalgia to confusion, and finally turned into a smile.
She felt relieved immediately, and she didn't know if it was her imagination, but she felt that the young master's temperament seemed a little different from before.
Although the young master was very easy-going in the past, sometimes when looking from a distance, one would always feel that there was a trace of sadness and loneliness in the young master.
But whenever she came close to the young master, that feeling would disappear suddenly, which made Wan'er puzzled.
Although there was no change in the young master at this time, she didn't know why, but she felt that he seemed to have let go of something.
The afterglow of the setting sun shone on Qin Ming, illuminating his whole body in a golden light.
In Xiao Qingwan's eyes, Qin Ming was more handsome than ever before, and she couldn't help but be fascinated by him.
After Qin Ming figured it out, he stretched out and saw Wan'er looking at him blankly.
She looked very cute. He couldn't help but stretched out his hand to scratch the bridge of Wan'er's nose, then took her little hand and said with a smile:
"Let's go to the ancestral hall to offer incense to our parents."
Qin Ming held her hand in broad daylight, and when she heard Qin Ming's ambiguous words, Xiao Qingwan's face immediately turned red.
His lips moved up and down a few times, but still no words came out to remind him of the young master's slip of the tongue.
He just lowered his head, said yes, and was led by Qin Ming towards the ancestral hall.
How did she know that this was not Qin Ming's slip of the tongue, but that in Qin Ming's eyes, Xiao Qingwan was already his little wife.
Then isn't it natural for him to take his future wife and offer incense to his parents in this life?
