Yuehui turned around and said sweetly to Shopkeeper Xu:
"Thank you very much, Shopkeeper. I will go pick out some useful things."
She smiled at Lin Hun and followed Gou Wang to the store to pick out things.
Lin Hun laughed:
"How can I let Brother Xu spend money? The things she picked are converted into the price of the goods."
Shopkeeper Xu glared at him and said:
"You are looking down on me, Old Xu. Brother Lin, your apprentice is here for the first time, so of course I have to show some appreciation!"
Lin Hun saw that he could not refuse and did not say anything more.
He still understood Shopkeeper Xu's temper.
You can only go along with him, not against him.
Soon Yuehui chose what she wanted.
She came out of the grocery store with a pair of men's thousand-layer sole shoes in her hand.
"Master, Shopkeeper Xu, I have chosen, this is it!"
Yuehui handed the shoes to Lin Hun.
She gestured on his feet.
After finding the right size, she happily said:
"Master, I've seen that your shoes need to be changed."
"It just so happens that Shopkeeper Xu has shoes that fit your feet, so I'll choose this as a gift. I'll give it to you, you won't mind, right?"
Lin Hun didn't expect that she would give him a pair of shoes.
He was touched for a moment.
Even Shopkeeper Xu next to him nodded repeatedly.
This little girl is really smart.
Let her choose by herself. If she chooses something too expensive, Shopkeeper Xu will feel bad.
In the end, it may be that the master will have to make up the difference.
But choosing a pair of shoes that fit the master's feet is the most appropriate.
On the one hand, it makes the master happy.
On the other hand, it makes Shopkeeper Xu happy too.
This shows her cleverness and wisdom.
"How could the master mind? The master likes your gift very much."
Lin Hun put the shoes in his arms.
Pointed to Gou Wang, who was at a loss behind Yue Hui.
"Apprentice, Gouwang is counting the master's harvest."
"Gouwang knows how much each item is worth, you can go and learn from him."
The goods in the cargo basket have not been counted yet.
It's a good opportunity for Yuehui to learn well.
"Okay, Master, I'll go right away."
Yuehui happily followed Gouwang to the shop to count the cargo basket.
Seeing Yuehui go in.
Shopkeeper Xu shook his head and praised:
"Brother Lin, you got it this time. You chose such a good apprentice."
"You said I was so bad, if I could be half as good as her."
Shopkeeper Xu sighed when he talked about his third son.
Shopkeeper Xu has three sons in total.
Two of them went to bigger cities to do business, start a family and never came back to town.
Only the third son was left.
But the third son was spoiled by his family when he was young.
When he grew up, he was far worse than his eldest and second brothers.
He is good at eating, drinking, whoring and gambling.
Shopkeeper Xu had no choice but to take care of him and prevent him from causing trouble.
"Hey, Brother Xu, how come you haven't seen your third nephew after such a long time?"
Lin Hun actually brought gifts for Shopkeeper Xu's third son.
It's impossible to only give gifts to Shopkeeper Xu's apprentice Gouwang.
Not to Shopkeeper Xu's son.
"Hey, he went out yesterday, and he was gambling with his group of bad friends."
"This third brother really worries me. Compared with his eldest and second brothers, he is not born by the same parents."
Shopkeeper Xu sighed.
"There is no other way, try to keep him around. When I am a hundred years old, this small grocery store will be given to him."
"I hope Brother Lin will help my useless bastard son more by then."
Shopkeeper Xu said sincerely.
Lin Hun smiled and said:
"Brother Xu, you are worrying too much. My third nephew just matured a little later."
"In another year or two, he will have enough fun and will be sensible."
"The eldest and second brothers are so good, how can the third brother be so bad?"
Lin Hun persuaded Xu not to make him feel too uncomfortable.
Just after the two drank a few more cups of tea.
Xu's third son came back.
He lowered his head and didn't say hello to his father and Lin Hun.
He walked straight through the grocery store to the backyard.
He locked his door with a bang.
Xu's Grocery Store is a store and residence in one.
In front is a large grocery store.
In the back is a courtyard for living and storing groceries.
"Fuck your mother!"
"This rebellious son, he gambled all night again last night!"
"Brother Lin, how can I be at ease with such a rebellious son!"
"His mother was pissed off to death like this, I will be pissed off to death by him too!"
Manager Xu was so angry that his lungs were about to explode.
It would be fine if this mistress didn't have manners and didn't call anyone.
However, he has only returned since he went out gambling yesterday morning.
"He must have lost everything again before he came back. It's a misfortune for the family!"
Although Manager Xu scolded his third son,
he still felt sorry for this youngest son.
"Gouwang, go to the kitchen and heat up the braised pork and steamed buns left for him and put them at his door."
"Eat it or not, it's best if you starve to death!"
He ordered Gouwang to deliver food to his third son.
Gouwang ran to warm up the rice as soon as he heard it.
He put the rice at the door of Xiaosan and knocked on the door.
"It's time to eat."
Then he went back and continued to count the groceries collected by Lin Hun with Yuehui.
Gouwang really told everything he knew in front of the beautiful Yuehui.
Yuehui also listened carefully and attentively.
He remembered everything Gouwang gave him.
What season and what price to buy to make a profit.
What kind of mountain products and what quality to buy at what price to make a profit.
Don't confuse which goods look similar but have very different prices.
What...
One teaches seriously.
The other learns carefully.
Just like that, they teach each other.
In a blink of an eye, it was lunch time.
"Come on, brother Lin, come to the old tavern with me to eat something and have a drink with me."
Shopkeeper Xu invited.
Every time Lin Hun came back to town, he would stay at Xu's Grocery Store.
This time was no exception.
They would go to the tavern next door for a meal every time.
They would not leave until they were drunk.
But Lin Hun shook his head and picked up the teacup.
He whispered:
"Every time I eat at your brother Xu's place, I'll treat you this time as I've made a little money."
"Let's not go to the tavern next door. I'll ask the waiter to bring it over, and we can drink tea and wine at the same time."
"It won't interfere with our business, and we can drink the good tea I brought."
Just at this moment, a waiter came running over with a food box.
"Hello, Manager Xu, Manager Lin!"
"Hello, Manager Lin, the food and wine you ordered are delivered to you!"
It was the waiter from the tavern next door.
The food box was steaming, and the dishes were all hot.
"Brother Lin, you..."
Manager Xu wanted to say something else.
But seeing Lin Hun laughing happily.
He stopped making pretense.
"Good, very good, I wish you could make a little money every day and treat me to wine every day!"
"Hahaha... very good, very good."
Manager Xu was really happy for Lin Hun.
The four dishes, one soup and one jar of wine ordered by Lin Hun were placed on the tea table.
Gou Wang and Yue Hui were called over, and the four of them started eating.
But no one noticed.
The food for the third son of Shopkeeper Xu was not touched.
In the past, the third son, who had been gambling all day and all night, would have licked the bowl clean out of hunger.
But today Shopkeeper Xu was happy because Lin Hun had made a small fortune.
So he did not notice this detail.
