Tang Tiantian, the Zhu of crossing
Chapter 044 Make Money
In the next few days, Zhang Xi didn't go to the city again, but just helped Uncle Lin with his work, beat him up and so on.However, at noon that day, Zhang Xi couldn't wait for Uncle Lin, who was selling fish, for a long time. In desperation, he had no choice but to go to Zicheng.
When he arrived at the market, Zhang Xi saw Aunt Zhang who was packing up, but there was no figure of Uncle Lin beside her.As soon as Aunt Zhang saw Zhang Xi, she quickly stopped what she was doing, and walked in front of Zhang Xi with a sad face.
"Xiaoxi, you came just in time, I was about to pack up the stall and go find you!" Aunt Zhang said anxiously.
"Where's Uncle Lin?" Zhang Xi asked directly.
Aunt Zhang looked like she was about to speak: "I just want to tell you that your Uncle Lin was taken away by the yamen."
"Why?" Zhang Xi was surprised.
"Hey, it's all my fault. I thought that clearing the land for him was to save him money. I didn't expect to be found out now. He said that if he didn't make up the rent, he would have to go to jail." Aunt Zhang sighed and blamed herself.
"How much does it cost?" Zhang Xi asked.
"They said they were going to double the fine or something, and they wanted a hundred jubilee. I would give it if I had the chance, but with so much money..." Aunt Zhang still blamed herself all over her face.
After hearing this, Zhang Xi hurriedly comforted Aunt Zhang: "Aunt Zhang, don't say that, they are deliberately making things difficult for Uncle Lin with so much money! This is none of your business, you have helped us too much, I will go to the Yamen now have a look."
Ever since he started selling fish with Uncle Lin, Zhang Xicai has gradually figured out the current currency situation here.After Zhu and Tang unified the world, the coins were all designated as Zhubi, and the change was called Tang money, and the value of one Zhubi here was worth 1000 yuan in modern Chinese RMB. It is impossible for an ordinary family to spend 10 yuan at once.
This time, it is indeed a little troublesome.
Zhang Xi hurriedly asked Aunt Zhang about the location of the Yamen, and then rushed over.
The yamen of Zicheng is next to the West Gate, Zhang Xi almost ran over, but was blocked in the end.Because the case was not serious, Zhang Xi was not qualified to meet the yamen master, and was sent away after being told to redeem him with money.
In order to meet Uncle Lin, Zhang Xi took out the few Tang coins he had on him, and only got 10 minutes of visiting time.
After entering the prison, Zhang Xi was stunned by the sight in front of him. In the filthy cell, Uncle Lin was lying weakly in a corner, covered with a torn quilt, and the stench was reeking.
Standing outside the fence, feeling sad for a moment, Zhang Xi quickly asked the yamen servant beside him: "Did you torture him?" Obviously, Uncle Lin's body was stained with blood, and his face was also bruised.
The yamen servant acted as if it should be taken for granted: "How would he know he was wrong if he didn't punish him? Don't commit crimes if you don't want to suffer!"
The words of the yamen servant are like a blow to the head.
"You..." Zhang Xi gritted his teeth, holding back his anger and said, "Our monthly income is less than a penny, so why do you want us to spend so much money?"
"Cut!" The yamen servant snorted coldly, and said in a sour tone, "Isn't Mr. Ru your benefactor? It's just a hundred Zhu coins, what's there to complain about!"
"Who told you that Mr. Ru belongs to my benefactor?!" Zhang Xi was surprised, obviously he didn't know about it.
The yamen servant smiled and asked back: "There is no impenetrable wall in Zicheng, am I wrong?"
At this time, Zhang Xicai seemed to understand some of the causes and consequences, and confirmed word by word: "So...the yamen found out that Uncle Lin violated the law because he heard that his godson found a financial backer?"
"Bold! How did you talk?" The yamen servant immediately became angry when he heard this, "It's because he was lucky that he wasn't caught before. Our yamen is law enforcement. No matter how nonsense you talk, be careful and let you go in and eat prison food!"
Zhang Xi didn't ask any more questions, because he probably already guessed seven or eight points in his heart.It must be that what happened to me in Peony Pavilion was seen by someone with a heart, and then reported to the Yamen, so that they can blackmail/extort me for a while.
But, that Ru Lianxi is not my benefactor at all!Zhang Xi felt worried, where would he earn the one hundred Zhu coins?
Absolutely not to take the path of "finding a financial backer", Zhang Xi made up his mind.
After leaving the prison, Zhang Xi returned home, looked at the fishing net, and shook his head. Fishing must be too slow, and his fishing skills are really not flattering.
In the end, Zhang Xi decided to go to the city to find a job, after all, sitting at home would not help.Thinking of Uncle Lin's dying state, Zhang Xi's heart felt like a needle prick, and Zhang Xi felt extremely guilty for staying in that cell for one more day.
When he came to a restaurant, Zhang Xi saw the red recruitment paper at the door. After mustering up his courage, he went to the counter and asked, "May I ask if you are recruiting?"
The middle-aged man at the counter stopped his account reconciliation work, raised his head, and looked at Zhang Xi: "Yes, what will you do?"
"It's all right!" Zhang Xi smiled, "As long as you can pay me a year's salary in advance! I am in a hurry to save people with money."
The middle-aged man's expression twitched a little: "How much do you want?"
"One hundred Zhu coins." Zhang Xi said truthfully.
"I'm sorry, my yearly salary is not even one hundred Zhudo, you should go to another place to ask!" The middle-aged man issued an order to evict the guest very bluntly.
There was trouble in the first interview, and Zhang Xi was very frustrated.
After several failed applications, without knowing it, Zhang Xi walked to the door of the Peony Pavilion again, and stopped for a while. He remembered what he had just been laughed at: "If you want to find a job that pays quickly, Just go to the Peony Pavilion, if you are lucky, you can earn one hundred Zhudos in one night!"
Clenching his fist tightly, Zhang Xi strode away from Peony Pavilion.Zhang Xi suddenly felt that he was very pathetic. He had never worried about money since he was a child, but here today, he was running around for money, and it was very difficult!
During school, although Zhang Xi's parents were not with him, they sent money back regularly. He was able to live comfortably. Later, he became an idol star, so he didn't have to worry about income. He was working purely for his hobbies.
Just after traveling to Zhutang, Zhang Xi was protected by Zhang Wuji, and later reunited with Zhang Peng, who was the prince of Zhutang again, so Zhang Xi didn't have to worry about his own life at all!In retrospect, Zhang Xi's journey has been smooth sailing, at least in terms of finances, he doesn't have to worry about it at all.
But now, with no parents, no Wewn group, and no Zhang Peng, Zhang Xi seems to have begun to feel the feeling of being short of money.However, Zhang Xi's heart is still positive, he doesn't believe that he will be cornered, after all, his past is always full of good luck.
Sure enough, at a dock, Zhang Xi found a good job with a high salary.As long as he signs a five-year labor contract, Zhang Xi can get a high income return of [-] Jubilee per year, and at Zhang Xi's pleading, they are willing to advance his salary for one year in advance!
However, just when Zhang Xi was about to sign the contract, a dart shot / flew over the writing brush in Zhang Xi's hand!Zhang Xi was startled, and followed the others to look at the door.
The visitor had charming eyes and a graceful demeanor, Zhang Xi was taken aback for a moment, and it turned out that Song Shuyue, who deserved a beating, walked in, and Zhang Xi immediately became upset.
When he arrived at the market, Zhang Xi saw Aunt Zhang who was packing up, but there was no figure of Uncle Lin beside her.As soon as Aunt Zhang saw Zhang Xi, she quickly stopped what she was doing, and walked in front of Zhang Xi with a sad face.
