Every failure is a learning experience.
Blacksmith Xiao Zhang came to the West Market and first went to the Shaofu Money House to deposit money.
He deposited all the silver notes in the Shaofu Money House, and kept the copper coins for himself to live.
After leaving Shaofu Money House, Xiao Zhang the blacksmith did not rush home, but went to the car sales center of Universal Transport in Xishi.
The huge car sales center is spacious, bright, high-end and grand.
There are small bridges and flowing water, and people are playing the guqin live.
There was a long row of tables covered with red tablecloths, all filled with food and drinks for everyone to help themselves to.
There are various versions of four-wheeled carriages in the hall, which you can visit at will.
The uniformed guys are on call, but they won't follow customers around and nag them.
They will only appear next to customers when they need them or when they are sure that a customer has purchasing intention.
No one disturbed him and he could visit freely, which made the tense blacksmith Xiao Zhang feel much more relaxed.
The sales hall was crowded. Not quite packed, but close enough.
This was completely beyond Xiao Zhang the blacksmith's expectations.
He thought such an expensive carriage was only patronized by the rich, but unexpectedly, many ordinary people like him also came to join in the fun.
Some people even brought their children with them specifically to get food, and only left after feeding their children.
Such behavior is disgusting.
However, no one came forward to drive them away.
Blacksmith Xiao Zhang looked around and seeing that no one was paying attention to him, he picked up a piece of dessert from the table and ate it secretly.
Oh my god!
I never knew dim sum could be so delicious, sweet but not greasy, and it’s no problem to eat ten pieces in one go.
However, he was embarrassed to eat more.
I ate two pieces and secretly hid a few more to take home and let my family taste them.
At this time, several waiters surrounded a rich man wearing gold and silver and walked out from the inner room.
The rich man said arrogantly, "Your cakes are delicious. Give me one of each."
"Excuse me, sir, but our cakes can only be eaten here and cannot be taken away."
"I'll give you money." The rich man said generously.
"Then we can pack it for you. Sir, please come this way. The Universal Restaurant is just ahead. We have everything you want to eat and drink."
"My carriage must be made with meticulous craftsmanship."
"Don't worry, sir. We will build your car according to your requirements using the best craftsmen."
The waiter led the rich man into another room.
Blacksmith Xiao Zhang broke out in a cold sweat on his forehead. It turned out that he could only eat here and could not take the food out.
What about the few cakes he secretly hid?
Put it back?
Not suitable.
"Brother, what's that place?"
"Where we're standing is the exhibition hall. Anyone can come. Inside, there's a VIP exhibition hall. Only those with money can enter."
At the dining table, two middle-aged men, neither rich nor poor, were chatting.
Blacksmith Xiao Zhang pricked up his ears to listen to their conversation.
"Then what is the Universal Restaurant?"
"Look, the restaurant is inside. The cakes here are delicious. If you want to take some back home for your family, just go inside and get them packed. The cakes are not expensive and you can buy them with just a little money."
"Brother, I saw a lot of people secretly hiding cakes and taking them out, and those guys didn't care."
"This is a car shop, so we have to give everyone face on the surface and not interfere with some people's behavior of hiding cakes and taking them out. Privately, those guys will definitely report it to the higher-ups. Maybe they'll take measures in the future to prevent people from taking cakes and tea without permission."
"That's true. He eats and drinks every day and doesn't buy a car. The boss has to make money to support so many people. He would lose a lot of money just on food and drink."
Blacksmith Xiao Zhang's face turned red and he left secretly, feeling a little embarrassed.
He hardened his heart, went to the Universal Restaurant, paid for a package of pastries to take back for his family.
After spending some money, my uneasy heart finally settled down.
He could also eat and drink the cakes and tea in the hall with a clear conscience.
He picked up his packing box and prepared to leave.
As he walked out the door, he looked back. One day, he would become a customer here and come here to buy a four-wheeled carriage.
…
Huang Qubing spent one thousand taels to customize a four-wheeled carriage.
Worldwide transportation, door-to-door delivery.
The craftsman will accompany the delivery and will make adjustments on the spot if there is any dissatisfaction.
Huang Qubing was not dissatisfied, it should be said that he was very satisfied.
The finished product was pretty much what he had imagined.
He also jumped in the driver's seat and took a test drive.
A four-wheeled carriage is better than a two-wheeled carriage. It is faster, safer, and more luxurious and impressive.
Sign the contract, take over the car, and pay the balance.
With the new carriage, the old carriage was left in the corner.
He got on a four-wheeled carriage and went to Wenqing Bookstore to show off.
Huang Qubing had a complex in his heart.
He felt that Wenqing Bookstore was his second home. Whenever something happened, the first thing he thought of was to go to Wenqing Bookstore to share it.
Four-wheeled carriages are no longer a rare sight on the roads of the capital.
The four-wheeled carriages going back and forth make the two-wheeled carriages look shabby and old.
Many people driving two-wheeled carriages looked at the four-wheeled carriage with envy. I secretly decided in my heart that I would buy a four-wheeled carriage in the future.
Huang Qubing arrived at Wenqing Bookstore, got off the carriage and shouted, "Cui Qi, Cui Qi! Is Mr. Cui here?"
He entered the backyard from the back door. Every blade of grass, every flower and every leaf here looked familiar to him.
Cui Qi is not here.
Yan Ci came out of the room with sleepy eyes.
"Boss Huang is here!" Yan Ci yawned, still half asleep.
Ever since becoming a novelist, Yan Ci has never had a good night's sleep.
My dreams are all like plots from novels or chapter-based TV series.
MMP, if you continue like this, you will die suddenly one day.
So he planned to finish the book he was working on, then take a three to five month break, striving for a dreamless night.
"Where is Boss Cui?" Huang Qubing asked.
Yan Ci shook his head. "I haven't seen him these past few days. Why don't you go look for him at the academy? He's taking classes there again, two classes every ten days. Maybe he's teaching there right now."
"He's not busy enough with the bookstore business, yet he still goes back to the academy to attend classes. Is he too free?"
Yan Ci covered his mouth and yawned again, "I'm almost done with this year."
The new book publishing opportunities and profit growth planned at the beginning of this year were all completed ahead of schedule.
There was really nothing to do for the next month or so.
Huang Qubing was very confused.
Why is he in charge of Wenqing Bookstore and is so busy every day?
Cui Qi was in charge of Wenqing Bookstore, and he was able to complete his annual tasks more than a month in advance, and he still had time to teach at the academy.
Is he not even as good as Cui Qi?
He pointed at himself and asked Yan Ci, "Who is more capable, me or Cui Qi?"
Yan Ci was still sleepy and his mind was a mess.
Without taking it seriously, he casually said, "Cui Qiqiang, please be a little stronger."
Ahhhh…
Huang Qubing was angry.
"You actually said Cui Qi is better than me? How is he better than me? Yan Ci, Yan Juren, Master Yan, open your eyes and see, is he really better than me? Don't forget, I was the one who founded Wenqing Bookstore, and Cui Qi just reaped the benefits."
Jealousy makes people unrecognizable.
At this moment, Huang Qubing was so jealous that he almost wanted to kill Cui Qi.
Damn, it’s so depressing.
He has always been proud of Wenqing Bookstore, and this achievement is enough for him to brag about for the rest of his life.
As a result, in Yan Ci's eyes, he was not as good as Cui Qi.
Do you know that his heart is almost broken into pieces?
Yan Ci finally came to his senses and said, "Of course, Boss Huang, you are awesome."
Huang Qubing sneered, "You just said Cui Qi is better than me."
"It was a slip of the tongue. It was absolutely a slip of the tongue. If you don't believe me, go ask someone else."
After saying that, Yan Cijiu was scared.
A jealous man is terrible.
Huang Qubing was such a childish guy that he actually went to ask other people.
The guys were not as confused as Yan Ci. In front of Huang Qubing, they naturally said that Huang Qubing was powerful.
"Boss Huang is the best!"
"Young Master Huang ranks first."
"No one can compare to Boss Huang. We will always love Boss Huang!"
Typical flattery.
And Huang Qubing felt so relaxed after being patted.
The eyes of the masses are indeed sharp. He is more capable than Cui Qi.
Feeling satisfied and refreshed, Huang Qubing ran to the eldest prince's mansion to ask for credit.
"My mother is not here."
Liu Yu entertained Huang Qubing in the flower hall.
"Did Madam Zhao say where she was going?"
"My mother went back to Gujiu early in the morning and hasn't come back yet."
"What happened to the Gu family?"
It wasn't a festival, so something must have happened for Gu Jiu to go back to her parents' home.
Liu Yu shook his head. "I'm not sure either. I just came back from the palace and was about to go to the Gu family to take a look."
Huang Qubing tactfully said goodbye.
Liu Yu took a four-wheeled carriage to Gu Mansion.
Something happened to the Gu family, and it was caused by Lord Gu.
Lord Gu's new concubine was spoiled to an excessive degree.
He was so ignorant that he even went to provoke Madam Xie.
Xie would never tolerate the concubine's troubles, so she ordered people to beat her to death.
Unexpectedly, the concubine broke free from the old woman and stabbed Xie with the hairpin like a madman.
Xie was stabbed and injured, and was in critical condition.
When the incident happened, Lord Gu and Gu Yan were not at home.
Hu panicked and sent someone to inform Gu Jiu.
At the same time, someone was sent to notify the man at home.
The doctor is trying to save Mrs. Xie.
Gu Jiu provided the best medicine and personally disinfected and applied medicine to Xie's wounds, hoping to save Xie's life.
The concubine was imprisoned.
Lord Gu sat outside waiting with a gloomy face.
Gu Cheng's face was pale and he said nothing.
Mrs. Hu stamped her feet in anxiety. If Mrs. Xie died, all the children and grandchildren of the Gu family would be in mourning. Gu Cheng's newly acquired opportunity for a transfer was completely ruined.
Gu Jiu walked out of the bedroom.
Everyone looked at her.
Mrs. Hu stepped forward and grabbed Gu Jiu's sleeve. "How is the madam?"
Gu Jiu shook his head. "He hasn't woken up yet! The bleeding has stopped. He might have lost too much blood, so he hasn't woken up yet. The doctor is guarding him inside."
"How could this be? Could it be..."
Gu Jiu shook his head, it was too early to draw conclusions now.
Xie was old and her health was declining. She was stabbed in the abdomen by her concubine several times, causing serious injuries.
Gu Jiu washed his hands, his face calm.
Bang!
Suddenly I heard someone kicking a stool and the door.
Gu Gong is back!
"What about my mother? I will kill whoever harms my mother."
After saying that, he picked up his sword and went to the side room to kill someone.
