Life is a Game

PS:

I found that when I was dizzy, I was more creative.

It's like opening the door to a new world.

.

Jiang Chengde and Mr. Lu counted the furniture in Taifeng Building all morning, ranging from tables, chairs, stools and ancient racks, to small teacups, utensils and hip flasks. Mr. Lu wished to pack all of them and take them to Peiping. As if throwing anything away casually was enough to make his heart ache enough to bleed.

"This set of cups has to be taken over. I remember that it was the same cup 20 years ago. It is an old thing and has to be taken away."

"This bottle has to be brought."

"This jar..."

"This Bogu shelf..."

"By the way, the cellar, the things in the cellar haven't been counted yet!"

Mr. Lu led Jiang Chengde from the lobby to the back kitchen, and then ran to the cellar, and took a clear inventory of the things in Taifeng Building. Jiang Feng could also see that Mr. Lu and Jiang Chengde had a pretty good relationship. They were not like bosses and employees, let alone creditors and debtors, but like old friends for many years.

Although Mr. Lu is old enough to be Jiang Chengde's father, but Mr. Lu talks a lot and has a smiling face. Jiang Chengde is serious and always gives people the impression of being cold. Standing together, the two gave Jiang Chengde a more reliable look.

It was already noon after the inventory was finished, and Mr. Lu held a thick stack of items in his hand, discussing with Jiang Chengde what to send away in the first batch and what to send in the second batch.

"I've already made preparations over there in Peking. The first shipments are all precious things. They will be shipped together with the caravan's goods and we have to leave tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. These things have to be tonight..." Mr. Lu said. As he spoke, he remembered that he had missed one of the most important things, "This plaque has to be removed and sent over. Uncle and you, do you think this plaque should be removed tonight or tomorrow morning?"

"Let's take it apart tonight. I'll go to the hospital to pick up my father in the afternoon." Jiang Chengde said.

Mr. Lu nodded: "If the situation is good, you can pick him up and live in it. It is unlucky to stay in the hospital. I have another hospital in the west of the city. You pick up your father and let him live there. Qin Wan will soon It's not convenient to take care of others after giving birth, so I'll send two maids to take your father to Peiping next month."

Jiang Chengde was silent when he mentioned his own father's future arrangement, bowed to Mr. Lu, and said, "Mr. Lu has a heart, Bohe can't bear it."

Mr. Lu enthusiastically patted Jiang Chengde on the shoulder: "What's unbearable, our two families are family friends, and I watched you grow up. I bought Taifeng Building and your old house back then. I told you when I was here, I was just looking at these things for you temporarily, there is nothing between us that we can stand or not."

"If you have any financial difficulties, you can talk to me at any time. Although the business is not very good recently, I still have some spare money on hand. You don't have to worry about the hospital. Those morphine powders are shipped from London. It's the same kind of smoking cessation medicine as the magic capital, and the medicine is pure and effective. When you go to Beiping, I will contact the hospital in Beiping for you, and I will guarantee you the best medicine." Mr. Lu smiled Coupled with his natural smiling face and what he just said, he is simply the kindest and most righteous person in the world.

No matter how serious and steady Jiang Chengde was, he was only a young man in his 20s. He was very moved by Mr. Lu's kindness and owed him a lot of favors.

"Thank you, Mr. Lu. I have troubled you a lot in the past few years, and I dare not bother you any more. Bohe will repay your great kindness with all his strength."

"What are you talking about, Uncle and you? What kind of repayment or repayment is there between us? Your father and I were good friends, and now he has become like this. You are my junior, It's right to take care of you more, you..." Mr. Lu wanted to say something more, but his assistant ran into the store to call him.

"Shopkeeper Lu, Boss Huang from the caravan is here and wants to discuss with you about the shipment." Seeing that Jiang Chengde was also there, the waiter stood at the door and said loudly that he did not come in.

"I still have something to do over there, Bo and I will go back first, do you want me to take you to the hospital?" Mr. Lu asked.

"No need, I'll just go." Jiang Chengde said.

"Well, I won't send it away. You go to the hospital to bring your father over, and we'll tear down the plaque tonight." Mr. Lu nodded and walked towards the door, followed closely by Jiang Chengde.

The two parted at the door, one went east and the other went west. Jiang Chengde only ate two cornbreads and a bowl of porridge in the morning, and he and Mr. Lu counted things all morning, and he was already hungry. It happened that there was a small stall selling sesame seed cakes a dozen steps ahead of Taifeng Building. Chengde went there to buy two plain biscuits to pad his stomach.

Jiang Feng stopped at the entrance of Taifeng Building, looked up at the plaque for a while, and was about to walk towards Jiang Cheng's side when he heard Mr. Lu's assistant talking to Mr. Lu.

"Shopkeeper, do we really want to move Taifeng Building to Beiping?" This guy was probably Mr. Lu's confidant, and he dared to ask anything.

When Mr. Lu faced the clerk alone, he didn't smile as much as he did when he faced Jiang Chengde. He glanced at the clerk lightly, and didn't know whether he thought he was talking too much or something, but his expression actually looked a little cold.

"if not?"

"Master Jiang's culinary skills are unrivaled outside of our customs. Even in Beiping city, he is not bad. There are so many restaurants in Beiping city. Are you not afraid that he will be poached by others?" The waiter naturally turned to the shopkeeper.

"Dig it out?" Mr. Lu looked up at the plaque and smiled. The smile looked a bit sinister. "This plaque is in my hand. Who can dig it up?"

Jiang Feng froze in place, turned his head in disbelief, and looked at Mr. Lu with the same smiling face, but he could see a different meaning.

"The daily income of restaurants in Beiping is more than a dozen yuan. How can it be compared with such a small place outside the customs. Don't stay in this place with all your wealth. I think their Jiang family has lost their minds in the past."

"If you want me to say yes, Master Jiang's father is really a prodigal son. We smoked opium outside the customs and ruined the family property a lot. It is really the first time that he has ruined all the family property in just a few years. That is to say, you kindly purchased the restaurant house and land at the market price, and distributed the utility room to them, otherwise, Master Jiang and his family would have slept on the streets long ago." The waiter echoed.

"It's a pity for Bohe to sleep on the street with such a good craftsmanship. Don't say what you shouldn't say. Bohe never cares about the words of others, but it doesn't mean that other people don't care, especially Master Chen. If you let him listen Wouldn't there be a gap in what you said just now?"

Jiang Feng still wanted to hear what Mr. Lu had to say. Jiang Chengde had already bought some biscuits and walked forward. The air wall hit Jiang Feng again, even if Jiang Feng was reluctant, he had no choice but to follow Jiang Chengde, walking forward and turning his head back.

Mr. Lu's expression was always calm, with a faint smile, and he opened his mouth to say something in a low voice, which made Jiang Feng's back feel chills.
