"Thank you very much. If you hadn't mentioned it, I wouldn't have known about this." Lin Tian quickly bowed to express his gratitude.
Lin Tian took out fifty yuan from his pocket and put it on the table, then took the wine from his younger brother, bowed, and went out without saying anything else.
Yang Tianshun originally wanted to say that he would not take the money, but when he saw the other party just left after dropping the money, he did not say anything else. It seemed that the other party just wanted to maintain a trading relationship with him. Yang Tianshun did not intend to establish a relationship with him based on two transactions. It would be fine as long as they got familiar with each other slowly. There was no rush and he could take it slow.
In fact, these two bottles of wine will only cost five or six yuan each if they are sold for takeout, but they require special wine tickets. They have not been on sale in recent years and are therefore rare.
On the way back, Lin Tian thought about it and decided that two bottles of wine would be enough. There was no need to bring anything too expensive. Besides, if he showed off his wealth, others would think he was a country bumpkin. Besides, he didn't know if this would work.
Lin Tian's family didn't have any acquaintances near Mr. Wang, so he couldn't ask others to go there first, so he had to go there himself.
Now I hope Mr. Wang is really a stickler for money, so that I can solve the problem better. And as long as he accepts me as an introductory student, everything will be easy to deal with later. Especially in the difficult period of two years, the food in my hands is more valuable than gold, which is really not available even with money in that era. I am not afraid that he will not teach me.
In order to attend the visit next week, Lin Tian even took a special leave to go to the silk shop and order a new set of clothes. This was quick and he got it two days later.
It is unknown who the clothes Lin Tian is wearing belong to. They should have been passed down from his father to his eldest brother, then to his second brother, and then to him. After all, Lin Tian is only 16 years old now. If he were in the future, he would still be in high school. His body is not fully grown yet, so his family would not easily buy him new clothes. Although both of them are working, people in this era pay attention to the idea of keeping new clothes for three years, old clothes for three years, and mending clothes for another three years.
In a blink of an eye, it was the weekend again. Lin Tian packed up and prepared to go out. He borrowed a bicycle from the store and carried two bottles of wine he bought from Yang Tianshun.
When he passed by the middle courtyard, everyone in the courtyard looked at him with surprise, because although Lin Tian used to wear clean clothes, they were always tattered. Today, he suddenly changed into new clothes, and he looked much more energetic, which made everyone feel bright.
The people who were chatting in the yard saw Lin Tian like this and started asking questions at once, led by Yi Zhonghai.
"Oh, Xiaolin, you are dressed so neatly, are you going out for a blind date?" Yi Zhonghai greeted with a smile.
"Ah, no. My family asked me to visit an elder, it's just an errand. How old am I and I'm already going on a blind date? It will take at least two years. Why don't you take advantage of the weekend to ask the matchmaker to arrange a blind date for Brother Zhuzi?" Lin Tian responded casually, also casually causing trouble for the two of them.
The two people's faces instantly turned dark when they heard this. Everyone who lives nearby knows that now the matchmakers nearby don't want to pay attention to Sha Zhu. This guy originally only loves looks, and now it is even harder to find someone.
Lin Tian didn't care about the expressions of the crowd and pushed the cart out directly. With the blessing of space, Lin Tian was very sharp-eyed and sharp-eared. When he arrived at the front yard, he could vaguely hear someone muttering in the back, "You are dressed so neatly, pushing a cart, carrying gifts, and saying it's not a blind date, who would believe it?"
Lin Tian didn't even need to think, the sour-mouthed person was Sha Zhu. His previous blind date was ruined by Xu Damao, and this guy was particularly picky. Last time, the matchmaker sent several photos before he chose one. So the matchmakers nearby were reluctant to introduce him to girls. Plus, there was no adult in the family to arrange things for him, so Sha Zhu's blind date was now nowhere in sight.
After riding my bike for more than half an hour today, I finally arrived outside the yard of Mr. Wang Wujiu's house, which I had inquired about before.
Ding! Ding! Ding! Lin Tian parked his bike and knocked on the door. A middle-aged woman came out and opened the door for Lin Tian.
"Excuse me, is this Mr. Wang's home?" Lin Tian asked.
"Yes," said the middle-aged woman who opened the door.
"I wonder if Mr. Wang is home?"
"At home. But Mr. Wang is not seeing patients today." The middle-aged woman thought he was seeking medical treatment at home.
"You misunderstood. I came to see Mr. Wang today to ask for a favor, not for medical treatment," Lin Tian said respectfully. However, Lin Tian had some guesses in his mind that this person should be a nanny or something.
As Lin Tian spoke, he handed the two bottles of wine in his hand to the woman, "This is just a small gift, but I hope you will inform Mr. Wang."
"Please wait a moment." The middle-aged woman took the gift and went to the yard.
Lin Tian waited at the door for more than ten minutes before the middle-aged woman came out and said, "Please come in."
This is a two-story courtyard, where some freshly dried Chinese medicinal herbs are placed. When I followed the middle-aged woman into the main room, Mr. Wang was sitting in the main seat drinking tea. His hair was half white, but he looked very energetic. He was skinny and didn't look like a doctor, but a high-level intellectual.
