The little bully Sun Yu was disrupting the situation, and Wu Song didn't care too much. He just had a local snake, so he couldn't become a climate. The second day was the annual Lantern Festival. Lanterns were hung in the entire streets and alleys of Quancheng since the early days, including red, green and green colors, including marionettes, lion lanterns, tiger lanterns, dragon dance lanterns, and flying fish lanterns. There were advertising lanterns from merchants, and some rich families showed off their lanterns, and even thousands of pounds of light oil.

Behind the glamorous street, there is an alley full of sewage. There are dog dung and chicken shit everywhere in the alley. Life is not about watching movies, so there are so many beautiful things. This dirty and messy environment is where the working people should live.

There was a blacksmith's shop where dozens of people were crowded here to watch the fun. Wu Song was originally going to go to Zhu's shop, but was attracted by it. There was a man standing on the gate of the Blacksmith's shop, with seven or eight idle men holding sticks underneath, and there were also neighbors watching the fun.

When I found out, I found out that there was a story about this blacksmith. The blacksmith was called Liu Yingxing. He had a ancestral blacksmith's craftsmanship and was very good at fighting. Liu Yingxing was not doing it properly and liked to tinker with some strange new inventions and other items. He bought all the money he earned from wiping the iron. A few days ago, my father got sick and spent more than 20 taels of silver to borrow usury. The disaster was not singular, and he didn't know who was owed a report. This Liu Yipao privately cast a letter cannon. The so-called letter cannon is a front-mounted artillery, which is used to send signals.

, Little Fire is very loud. Liu Yingxing created this to be a cannon for the marriage, but the government doesn't think so. Although it has no lethality, it has potential lethality. Liu Yingxing's family didn't have any money, so he confiscated all the messy things in his family. Originally, these tools were there, Liu Yingxing could still play iron and his family could get better slowly, but now he has nothing to do and he has no courage to live.

The person who took the sticks downstairs received seven or eight usury loans, twenty taels of silver. In a month, only twenty taels of money was enough to charge Liu Yipao for suicide.

Two old men in their sixties were Liu Yingxing's parents.

Liu Yingxing was on the gatehouse, holding a bag of arsenic in his hand, and said, "Dad, it's not that the child is unfilial. The iron-smashing guy is gone, and our family has to go begging for food. We can't pay the loan shark, and there is no other way, so I can only die."

"That man, let's talk about it." Wu Song said.

Liu Yingxing said: "I'm stupid. If I go down and fall into the hands of these debt collectors, I'm better than death."

"You are young and can still make a comeback. Isn't you just a blacksmith shop? Just open it again." Wu Song said.

"Stop, stop. Stop. Don't talk nonsense. Unless you can help me pay the usury loan, buy nearly 100 kilograms of pig iron, bellows, blacksmith furnaces, and sledgehammers. Otherwise, don't persuade me. Just think that it's fun. I'm better than playing monkeys." Liu Yingxing said.

Wu Song said: "It's not okay if I buy it for you, but my money is not blown by the strong wind. Why not do this? I'll pay you up the loan shark, build a new ironware workshop, and provide you with sufficient raw materials, but you have to work for me, and how about sending you money on a monthly basis."

Liu Yingxing said: "Are you serious? If you want to use me to make fun of me, I will not let you go."

"Really, I have no grudge against you, right? If you don't believe it, you will pay back the usury for you." Wu Song said.

Wu Song said as he took out twenty taels of silver and paid him back the usury.

Liu Yingxing was like a dream, threw away arsenic and came down from the gatehouse, kneeled in front of Wu Song and said, "From now on, you will be my benefactor. I will make whatever you ask me to make, and I will make you in the next half of my life. But."

"Just what?" Wu Song asked.

"It's just how much money do you send me in a month?" Liu Yingxing asked.

Wu Song said: "Sanguan money, I have all your food, clothing and expenses. The threeguan money is pure."

Liu Yingxing was overjoyed. A great thing happened, so he immediately decided to follow Wu Song.

Wu Song gave Liu Yingxing another six-calorie money and said, "The workshop is in Qinghe County. I'll settle the six-calorie money for you to have your parents settle down tomorrow."

Liu Yingxing thanked him very much.

When Wu Song came to Zhu Family Store, he was about to cut the ribbon, and the fireworks for the sky cannon were ready. Today, the host of Zhu Family was Zhu Hu. Zhu Hu was a few years older than Wu Song, and he was less than 30 years old. He was experienced and had no time to do things. He had both the official and private sides of Quanzhou Prefecture.

"Zhu Hu, your publicity is in place. Look at how long the team has lined up. I'm afraid there will be at least 500 numbers." Wu Song said in surprise.

Zhu Hu said: "Buy a piece of soap and give one egg. These old men and women come to queue up early in the morning. The profit of soap is not as high as that of hand-pressing wells, but hand-pressing wells has not been promoted yet, so I will arrange for my friend to make a big bucket of water to press water."

Wu Song said: "It's easy to talk about soap, but it's best to sell it when you hand-press the well. Look at the roadside hotels and carriage shops, which one doesn't need."

"What everyone said is that when I train, I will arrange for someone to come to sell in a few days."

The firecrackers opened, and the wealth was coming. Those who bought soap were queued up, those who bought the wells were pressed, and those who also had other iron tools, but they were not popular enough.

Zhuhu Le has blossomed, and Zhujiazhuang has another source of wealth. Farming alone is no longer enough to maintain Zhujiazhuang's livelihood, and we must increase our ways of doing business.

At noon, Wu Song drank a few less drinks here, and it was soon in the evening. Suddenly, he remembered that he promised Cheng Wan to go to Daming Lake to participate in the poetry competition this evening. He immediately took Luo Ping, Mao Hai, and the three of them to ride horses to Daming Lake.

When Wu Song arrived, Daming Lake was already a sea of ​​lanterns and lights, and there were crowds of people. Finally, I found a carriage shop to store the horses and then walked to the shore of Daming Lake.

The so-called poetry competition is not a competition, but a literary exchange, including poetry, articles, musical instruments, and some literati and poets complain, curse, etc.

Not far from the door, there was a pavilion, with hundreds of lanterns illuminating the pavilion. A scholar with high spirits stood in the middle and raised his arms and shouted: "Our Song Dynasty can be spent, the Jin Kingdom can be spent, the Liao Kingdom can be spent, and the Western Xia Kingdom can be spent, but the people can not. They ceded land to seek peace, and sold the country to seek honor. Why is this? Because treacherous ministers were in power, deceived the emperor from above and fooled the people from below. The young student was Zhang Zeduan, who was willing to do his best for the country, and specially painted fifty paintings for sale for charity, and all the money obtained was used to fund the poor." As soon as the scholar gave a speech, there were more people immediately.

A scholar in the crowd said, "You are right. How much does it cost to have a painting? I'll buy one."

"What I painted here is a dragon boat race. I sold fifty guan a piece of money in Tokyo, and only five guan in our hometown. The best way to give silver is, five taels of silver, five taels of silver."
