"I was scared when I saw his face."
Liu Heng mumbled.
Kou Ji was stunned, "Your father is so ugly?"
Liu Heng shook his head, "That's not right... He just keeps his face straight every time he sees me..."
Kou Ji suddenly.
"Looking back, I will teach you to please your father..."
Kou Ji said casually and hurried to Zhang Cheng's side.
Er Bao ran over at this moment.
The two worked together to help Zhang Cheng who was knocked to the ground.
Zhang Cheng sat up, resisting the pain in his body, and asked in a low voice, "Where is Bo'er?"
Kou Ji hurriedly said: "He's all right..."
Zhang Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, enduring the pain on his body, and looked at Kou Ji cautiously: "Unexpectedly... you are really the son of Kou Mansion..."
Kou Ji was taken aback, he felt the alienation in Zhang Cheng's words.
Kou Ji patted Zhang Cheng on the shoulder and smiled: "It doesn't matter who I am, the important thing is that you are still my brother Zhang Cheng."
Zhang Cheng squeezed a bitter smile on his face, and whispered: "You are noble, I can't afford to..."
Kou Ji looked at Zhang Cheng and said seriously: "Without your help, I might have died in the hands of the bandits, or starved to death on the way to Bianjing. In front of you, I have no other identity, just you Brother Koj."
Zhang Cheng nodded thoughtfully, he showed an ugly smile, "Let you see a joke..."
Kou Ji shook his head, "When everyone was down, you didn't despise me and recognized my brother. How could I despise you and abandon your brother."
"I… "
Zhang Cheng still wanted to speak, but Kou Ji stopped him.
"You are badly injured, and my sister-in-law has also suffered two sticks. I'd better find a drugstore and check it out before talking about it."
Kou Ji asked Erbao to take out some scattered silver, and said to the crowd of onlookers: "Come two people, help me carry them to the drugstore..."
"Is the son shuddering us? Zhang Cheng and his wife treat us well on weekdays. What kind of money do you want to help you?"
"Yes, brothers, all help."
"..."
In the crowd, people who knew Zhang Cheng and his wife spoke.
They came up in groups, carrying Zhang Cheng and his wife to the drugstore.
It seems that Zhang Cheng and his wife are well-connected.
No one helped out just now because they couldn't provoke Liu Congde.
Kou Ji asked Erbao to hold Zhang Cheng's son and Liu Heng to help Zhang Cheng's father-in-law to walk to the drugstore.
When they arrived at the drugstore, the group of people bowed their hands to Kou Ji and dispersed.
Kou Ji also bowed his hand to them.
The doctor in the pharmacy helped Zhang Cheng and his wife look at the injuries, prescribed two sets of medicine and put a few plasters on them.
"It's all skin injuries, it doesn't get in the way..."
"Thank you, doctor..."
It was confirmed that Zhang Cheng and his wife were not seriously injured before they could sit down and chat.
Zhang Cheng took his son and introduced Kou Ji: "My son, the nickname Boer..."
"Boa, call it Uncle!"
Little Baoer hid in Zhang Cheng's arms, took a peek at Kou Ji, and then hid again.
He was a little afraid to look at Kou Ji, and was obviously frightened by Kou Ji's brutal appearance just now.
"The child is a little scared..."
Zhang Chengqian explained with a smile.
Kou Ji smiled and said, "It won't get in the way..."
Zhang Cheng pointed to the lady and introduced: "Luo Runniang, the head of the house..."
Kou Ji stared in surprise.
Zhang Cheng said uncomfortably: "I am a son-in-law..."
Suddenly, Kou Ji got up to give a salute, "Kou Ji has seen his sister-in-law."
Luo Runniang got up and replied, "Uncle Kou is polite."
She is neither humble nor overbearing, and she doesn't have the attitude of a little daughter. She can see that she has a good status at home.
Zhang Cheng pointed to the old man and introduced: "My dad Luo Ping..."
Kou Ji Shili said: "I have seen Uncle Luo's family."
Luo Ping hurriedly returned the courtesy, "Be polite and polite..."
After a short contact, Kou Ji already knew what was happening at Zhang Cheng's family.
Luo Ping is a soft-tempered person who can't be a family, so Luo Runniang is in charge of the Luo family.
Zhang Cheng is a son-in-law and can't be a family.
Kou Ji also introduced Liu Heng to Zhang Cheng.
"Liu Heng, my new brother..."
Luo Runniang and Zhang Cheng didn't have much affection for Liu Heng, they just gave a blunt salute.
They are not deaf, so they naturally know that Liu Heng is Liu Congde's younger brother.
Liu Heng smiled bitterly and gave a gift.
After the introduction by both parties.
Kou Ji took the lead to speak, "Brother Zhang Cheng, sister-in-law Run Niang, don’t lie to each other, this time I came here, I want to ask Brother Zhang Cheng to help...
"No way!"
Before Kou Ji finished speaking, Luo Runniang refused.
Kou Ji was taken aback.
Soon, he guessed Luo Runniang's thoughts.
For three generations of a fairly high-ranking official, suddenly asking a plain-headed commoner for help, the most likely thing is to let him die.
Kou Ji smiled, "Sister-in-law Runniang, after listening to me, it's not too late to refuse."
Luo Runniang opened her mouth and looked at Zhang Cheng.
Zhang Cheng patted her hand.
Luo Runniang nodded then.
Kou Ji smiled and said: "I got a new piece of land, near Zhouqiao Street. There were shops on the ground, but recently it was burned. There are seven acres of land. I plan to circle out five acres and build a shop. .I plan to sell the remaining two acres to raise money to build a shop.
When I first arrived in Bianjing and I was not familiar with the land, I wanted to ask if Brother Zhang Cheng had any acquaintances who could help me sell these two acres of land. "
"The land of State Bridge Street?"
Luo Runniang and Zhang Cheng looked shocked.
Zhouqiao Street, that is the most prosperous place in Bianjing City except for the Royal Street.
On weekdays, people in the past are high-ranking officials, far from being comparable in Xiwazi City.
There are thousands of acres of land there.
"That's not cheap..."
Luo Runniang murmured.
Zhang Cheng smiled bitterly: "Brother Kou Ji, to tell you, no one among the people I know can afford that piece of land."
"That would be difficult..."
Kou Ji banged on the tabletop, groaning.
For a long time, he looked at Zhang Cheng and suggested: "Brother Zhang Cheng, would you like to buy it?"
"what?!"
Zhang Cheng was taken aback and waved his hands again and again, "I can't afford..."
Kou Ji calculated: "We are brothers. We have this relationship. You don't have to give me all the money at once. My land is rather biased. An acre of land is about three thousand five hundred guan, and two acres is seven. Thousands. You can give it to me in seven years, one thousand per year, and on average, less than one hundred per month."
Zhang Cheng was not dizzy by the surprise, but looked at Kou Ji with an ugly expression.
"Are you pitying me?"
Kou Ji stared, and said displeased: "Nonsense, you give me money in batches, but I want to make a profit."
Kou Ji turned his head and asked Liu Heng, "How do you calculate the profit from lending on the street?"
Liu Heng is not stupid, he naturally sees that Kou Ji is going to help Zhang Cheng.
He quickly reported a number.
"Five cents..."
Kou Ji immediately said to Zhang Cheng: "You have a relatively long time, and count your three cents of profit. This profit is more than lending, is it not pity you?"
