Chapter 22 Is it you who is rare?

Before dawn the next day, Zhao Hao got up and went to the kitchen to warm up the leftovers from last night.

Then he prepared the face wash for Zhao Shouzheng, prepared the teeth and pancreas, and then called him to get up.

The hangover Zhao Shouzheng rubbed his swollen head and couldn't remember what he said last night.

"Father should eat less bars in the future." Zhao Hao advised him while serving rice: "You are not very smart at first, and if you drink badly, you will be even less able to take the imperial examination."

"Uh..." Zhao Shouzheng was speechless, and after a while, he nodded and said, "Okay."

After the father and son finished breakfast, they threw the bowls and chopsticks into the basin. Zhao Hao couldn't wait to pull Zhao Shouzheng out.

The two of them no longer had the interest to stroll in the garden today. They walked in a blissful way and arrived at the street outside Gulou in more than half an hour.

"There are several stores on this street that can buy brown sugar." Zhao Shouzheng wiped his sweat with the towel around his neck.

Zhao Hao shook his head, "You can't buy it here, let's go away before talking."

"Be cautious." Zhao Shouzheng praised: "If you do it carefully, you will be able to strengthen your ambition; if you speak carefully, you will be able to respect your virtue. My son will definitely become a great person."

Zhao Hao rolled his eyes, and said to himself that you know everything, and you forget everything as soon as you do...

However, there was something big to do today, so he didn't want to waste time complaining, so he pulled Zhao Shouzheng straight through the street outside the Gulou, and then passed the square in front of the Gulou, and came to the fish market street, which was also prosperous and well-equipped with department stores.

The father and son bought a total of 50 kilograms of brown sugar in the four shops. Then they picked up the sugar and moved to Beimen Bridge. They used the same trick again and bought another 50 kilograms of brown sugar in the four shops.

Zhao Hao once again spent all the money on him...

Of course, he had no money to hire a porter, so Zhao Shouzheng carried the load and walked towards Caijia Lane more than ten miles away.

Zhao Hao originally wanted to take turns carrying the burden with him, but Zhao Shouzheng insisted on not allowing it.

"My son still needs to grow up, so he can't be crushed."

Zhao Hao couldn't fight him, so he had to slap him in the wind with a hat from the side, encouraging Zhao Shouzheng spiritually.

But Zhao Shouzheng really couldn't pick his shoulders and couldn't lift his hands. He was shaking and resting, and he attracted many laughter from citizens along the way.

You should know that in this era, the working people would take a burden of two or three hundred kilograms and leave, and even women and children would not be suppressed by this weight.

"Don't pay attention to them." Zhao Hao raised his thumbs up with both hands, and cheered him up with admiration, "My father is the best! Come on!"

Although Zhao Shouzheng didn't know what "Come on", he was still very excited. He roared and rushed out with a load on his shoulders.

Unexpectedly, before rushing out ten feet, his legs became weak and he was stumbled on the ground. If Zhao Hao had not been on guard against him and quickly caught the shoulder pole, he would have to sprinkle all the candy on the ground.

"No, no, no, I'm sorry, I'm willing to kill the thief for my father, but I'm exhausted." Zhao Shouzheng sat under the shade of the tree and gasped, saying, "Wait until I'll take a break, and then put on the squad."

Zhao Hao quickly went to the water well beside him, dug the water back, and added brown sugar to the water.

Zhao Shouzheng gulped and then felt that he had come back to life.

"The road is long and arduous, keep rushing."

Zhao Shouzheng held the tree trunk and forced himself to get up.

At this point, I suddenly heard a surprise call sounding out of thin air.

"Hey, isn't this brother?"

The father and son looked in the voice and saw a tall man wearing a black gauze and a used-hand blue soapy shirt running from a distance with joy on his face.

"Ah, brother is indeed you!"

When the man ran closer, Zhao Hao saw that he looked pretty good, but his eye-catching ears were quite funny. He looked at his eyes and his clothes were blue, and there was some striking oil stains on his clothes. He felt depressed all over his body, which could be felt several feet apart.

When Zhao Shouzheng saw the visitor, he immediately smiled and stood up and bowed to the other party and said, "Brother, my good brother, you really want to come early, so why not come quickly."

"Is that right?" The man blinked in surprise and said with anticipation: "Brother, have a meal to eat?"

"Of course there is." Zhao Shouzheng said, pointing at the load, and smiled happily: "But you have to help me first and carry this home."

"No problem, as soon as my brother spoke, I would go through fire and water, and I would not refuse."

The man looked at the two cloth bags tied to the ends of the shoulder pole. He felt that they were not too big, so he slapped his chest. After saying that, he noticed Zhao Hao beside him and said with a smile: "Is this a virtuous nephew? He has grown so big."

Zhao Hao was a little confused by this familiar guy. He forced a smile to be considered a gift.

"This child doesn't like talking very much." The person who came didn't care, bent down and carried the shoulder pole to stand up.

"Oh, it's so heavy..." The man looked at the big skeleton, but it was just a silver-shaped gun tip. He looked at Zhao Shouzheng with help and said, "Brother, please send me a shot."

Zhao Shouzheng helped him get the burden and pulled his son to lead the way.

The man had to carry the load honestly and follow behind.

After pulling a little further, Zhao Hao finally couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Who is this?"

"He is my classmate in the Imperial College, and his name is Fan Datong. The five liang of the past was borrowed by this kid. I don't even count how much money I gave him at all." Zhao Shouzheng told Zhao Hao in a low voice.

Zhao Hao suddenly realized, thinking that he had caught the coolie now...

But Fan Datong is also a useless man. He didn't pick a few hundred steps and was yelling behind him.

"Brother, can we be relayed?" Fan Datong looked at Zhao Shouzheng, knowing that he had always been soft-hearted.

"Repay the money!" Zhao Hao glared at him angrily. He thought to himself that this guy is so shameless. Even though he knew that my father was in a downturn, he still wanted to borrow money from him.

"Nephew, are you kidding?" Fan Datong blinked and looked at Zhao Hao, who was so cruel.

"The shoulder pole falls to the ground and pay the money immediately." Zhao Hao stretched out his hand at him and said unyieldingly: "Get back the five taels of the day before yesterday first."

"Uh?" Fan Datong was stunned and looked at Zhao Shouzheng.

Zhao Shouzheng shrugged, saying that he could not help.

"My brother doesn't know that now my son is in charge of the family, and my father is not good at speaking."

"I didn't say I didn't pick it." Fan Datong immediately realized the situation and said cheerfully: "My dear nephew, do you believe it or not, I can pick you up at your house in one go!"

"Finish." Zhao Hao curled his lips, unwilling to pay attention to him.

Fan Datong had no choice but to continue carrying the burden and lamented to Zhao Shouzheng: "Brother, the young master's temper is not like you."

"My son is self-improvement a hundred times." Zhao Shouzheng was proud of himself when he heard this, and then asked about his purpose.

"The day before yesterday, I forgot to ask my brother about his new location. I was worried about not knowing how to meet him. I didn't expect to meet him today. It can be said that he had the fate to meet him." Fan Datong replied seriously. In fact, he was wandering around the north of the city these two days just to find Zhao Shouzheng.

"Is that so? That's not bad." Zhao Shouzheng felt warm in his heart when he heard this, and he laughed at himself: "It means that I haven't failed yet."

Zhao Hao rolled his eyes secretly when he heard this and said, "Does he care about you? He cares about your money?"
