"Okay! Just do as you say. It will be good to save one person's food expenses." The uncle in the clan suddenly made the decision. Everyone looked at each other in disbelief. Now it's Chen Guanlou's turn to have his head pounding, and he wants to give himself a mouthful, tell you to talk too much, tell you to talk too much! Who would have thought that people would just climb up the pole. What to do now. He opened his mouth and asked tentatively: "Uncle, are you joking? Isn't it appropriate for your youngest son, that, your most precious little son, to work as a jailer in the Tianlao? A young man who eats well and drinks hotly and wears satin clothes every day. , Go to the Tianlao to do a lowly job, wear coarse linen clothes and serve the prisoners, it’s not like that, it’s really not like that.” He just waved his hand and refused directly. He had a young master by his side, and he was out of his mind. He was crazy to do this. He was just irritated casually, who would have thought that others would take it seriously. Now I'm fine, I can only work hard to make up for it. The eldest uncle in the clan looked at Chen Guanlou with a half-smile, and was still playing tricks on him.
He stroked his beard and said solemnly: "While the old man was still alive, we all suffered a lot. We rolled in the mud, hid in ditches, pretended to be dead and escaped in blood, and we had one meal in three days... So many years have passed in the blink of an eye. Today's children are just too happy, have never suffered, and don't know how to cherish. The youngest son in the family was spoiled and got a lot of bad habits. I had found several jobs for him before, but none of them lasted long, and his temper became worse and worse. Thinking about it, Tianlao might really be a place to reform people. Xiaolou, let him stay by your side and learn how to serve others, how to be humble and humble. You must first learn to be a grandson before you can become a master. You don't have to spoil him, let alone give me face. I'll hit him when I need to, and scold him when I need to. No special care is needed. But, can I change my name to work as an errand? The Chen family, after all, is a famous family in the capital. They can't have two jailers, right? " Chen Guanlou was speechless. As expected of the eldest uncle in the clan, with his ability to bend and stretch, it is no wonder that he has been able to wrest the management rights of two farms from the stewards of the Marquis Mansion in recent years. He manages two farms, has plenty of money, and is served by servants at home. He can arrange any errand for his youngest son at any time. Why travel all over the world to worry about those three melons and two dates? "To be honest, uncle, today's Tianlao is not as good as in previous years. You have all heard about the news in the court. The Ministry of Household Affairs has no money, and all the yamen are in debt to the famine. Our Tianlao is the hardest hit area. We have no money and food for the entire year this year. They didn't even mention it, and even increased the proportion of money to be handed over. People in Tianlao complained that they had been suffering from no money for a long time. "Chen Guanlou began to cry about poverty. If you don't care about money, then let's get some real information. There is really no money in Tianlao now! I didn't see the two Masters Fan becoming so picky, especially Mr. Fan who wanted to steal money from the jailer from time to time. "Xiaolou, what you said is a bit untrue." The uncle in the clan looked calm, obviously well prepared, "I heard that you launched a set meal activity in Tianlao, which greatly eased Tianlao's financial tension. With this It’s going to happen.” Chen Guanlou smiled bitterly. The uncle of the Dark Dao clan was indeed an old fox, and he even found out about this. "No one's money comes from the strong wind. Even if the prisoners have money, they have to use it wisely. After all, there will be more places to use money later. Besides, spending money too lavishly will easily lead to resentment. If you are If you stab him out, he might be punished even more. Uncle, my nephew, I'll tell you the truth, the prison is not as good as it used to be, and it's hard to make money." Why! The uncle of the clan sighed, "I won't hide it from you. Look at how long it has not rained today. Let me tell you the truth. This year, 80% of the farm is losing money, and the remaining 20% is guaranteed. Next year, it looks like it may be more difficult than this year. The Hou Mansion has already considered sending people south to build a farm in the south where there is ample water. They cannot stick to one acre of land in the capital. Regardless of the fact that I am in charge of the farm and look so majestic, I have really been short of money these past few years! Being busy with errands every day, he also neglected the discipline of his children at home, so that he developed bad habits and suffered from famine. Xiaolou, my uncle has something to say to you, I don’t ask that brat to make money, I just ask him not to lose money, not to spend family money, and to be able to support himself. You help the uncle, take care of him, and see if you can change his habit of gambling. " Chen Guanlou:...... Tianlao is just a big gambling den, how to change it? If you really want to enter the prison, you will be like a fish in water. It’s not enough to pay all the money earned, and we have to continue to owe the famine. However, when this bitter card was played, Chen Guanlou really couldn't refuse it directly. They all have the surname Chen, regardless of whether they appear or appear in the five servers, they are all members of the same family. Give face and affection. Especially, when an elder lowers his voice and plays the bitter card, and in front of the big guys, he can't get things done.
Keep a line in everything so that we can meet again in the future! "Uncle, you have never been to Tianlao. You don't know how dirty it is. Most people really can't bear that kind of suffering." Chen Guanlou also said something that spoke to his heart. Just the smell of Tianlao is enough. "Moreover, there is no sunlight all year round in Tianlao, and it is dark and humid. If you don't spend any time with your body, your body will definitely not be able to bear it for a long time. Look at me, since I entered Tianlao, I have to fight my body every day, just to live longer. Years. The money earned is basically paid in. Uncle, can your boy endure the hardship of practicing martial arts? His body is not damaged yet. You can’t take any chances if you don’t have a wife before you get married. I don’t care. Anyway, I’m the only one in our family. If I die, I will die.” Chen Guanlou didn't cry about being poor, because crying about being poor was useless and no one believed him. So he decisively changed his strategy and started to play the sympathy card and speak his heart out. What he said were all objective facts without any exaggeration. If the youngest son of the eldest uncle in the clan could really endure the hardship of practicing martial arts and strengthening his body, he would not have followed him to the prison and would have followed the eldest master to the battlefield to earn military merits and fight for his future. He would have been a young master who was not good at anything and was afraid of heavy things. He thought that after saying this, the other party should give up. But he never expected that the other party would be so persistent in pursuing money that he would change his mind because of his words. "It doesn't matter! I have five sons. If the youngest son really can't have children, he can just adopt one from his brothers. Anyway, we are all family." Chen Guanlou was amazed and admired the eldest uncle's generosity and unrestrainedness. He cursed secretly in his heart: old people who don't die are thieves. They have shown their flags, just thinking about the benefits of Tianlao. Chen Guanlou gritted his teeth, saying that he should also come up with a set of rules. "Okay! But let me be frank, you have to listen to me in Tianlao, no matter how much money you get, don't gossip. If you are not satisfied, you can leave at any time. You can just register your name first, and the account will be settled from the inside. At that time, if something dirty happens, please don't make things difficult for me, it's not easy for a junior to make a living." It's clear that in the future, don't use your status as an elder to make things difficult for him. He gave face once and he won't give it again. In the future, everyone is uncle and nephew, and settle accounts clearly, don't play the emotional card.
