That night, Mr. Guan finally got out of Yihong Building.

"We will come often in the future. Everyone is your own people. Just treat Yihonglou as your own home!" The madam said reluctantly.

She spoke loudly so that everyone around her could hear it.

In just two or three hours, the news that Director Guan’s young master visited Huifang had spread all over the place.

Several cars have been parked at the entrance of Huifangli's alley waiting to take him home.

Such a big battle scared Mr. Guan, saying that he would not get in the car. If he just went home like this, let Mr. Guan, his mother know the whole story, had to knock the feather duster away.

As a result, Mr. Guan didn't get into the car but ran away.

That night, everyone around Huifangli saw a strange scene.

A young man was running in the front, and there were three or four cars chasing him in the back.

"It must be that this kid goes in and does not pay for money. He doesn't look at where this place is. They will let you go. You must discount your bad legs!" said an old man on the street with great experience.

Only then did Mr. Guan remember that he was sitting in Yihonglou tonight. Yihonglou actually closed the door for him. All the girls sat with him. I don’t know how many pots I drank in the best West Lake Longjing. In the end, he ran out without paying a dollar.

Mr. Guan thinks tonight is the biggest stain in his life. And the culprit of this incident is the damn Qian Xiaobao!

Two days later, Qian Xiaobao appeared at Yuquan Railway Station, 60 kilometers away from Harbin.

When the Russians were building the Central and Eastern Railway, they saw the beautiful scenery of Dianzi, Dianzi, Acheng, where they built a sanatorium and dug a well with sweet water.

After the Japanese occupied the Northeast, the mineral water sold along the railway was produced in the second floor of Dianzi. Gradually, the name of Yuquan was found here.

Some smart people began to sell soju wine in the second floor of Dianzi.

Qian Xiaobao walked out of the railway station and came to the main street of Yuquan Village. Looking at the large number of houses in front of him, there were at least hundreds of families. In the northeast, this is a big village.

Qian Xiaobao did not rush into the village, but turned to a restaurant next to him, picked up a cotton curtain and walked in.

"Old guest is here, do you want to eat something?" asked a woman.

Qian Xiaobao stood in the middle of the house for a while before adapting to the dim light inside, and looked at the woman in her forties standing in front of him and replied, "What do you want to eat if you want to eat!"

"Are there any pig-killing vegetables?" the woman asked again.

"Give me a bowl!" Qian Xiaobao replied while sitting at the dining table.

The woman turned around and entered the back room and brought a large bowl of pig-killing vegetables out after a while. The pig-killing vegetables should have been stewed in a big pot, but a few slices of blood sausage in the bowl were later put in.

"Do you drink?" the woman asked.

"Hot two taels." Qian Xiaobao said.

Qian Xiaobao came to Dianzi this time to find Zhang Junjie's daughter. Guan Xiaoye had already found out in Yihonglou that the child was bought by a man who sold soju to Harbin last year from Dianzi to Dianzi.

Qian Xiaobao picked up a piece of pork belly and put it in his mouth and chewed it. The woman held a glass of hot wine on the dining table.

Qian Xiaobao picked up the wine glass and took a sip and said, "This wine is really good!"

"It's true! Now our Yuquan salt is becoming more and more famous." The woman continued.

"Yuquan? Isn't this called Er'anzi?" Qian Xiaobao asked.

"It has changed its name, it has changed its name since last year." The woman replied.

"Aunt, you just said that your Yuquan salty wine is becoming more and more famous. So, are there many people here who cook pots?" Qian Xiaobao continued to ask.

"There are five families, all of which use the good spring water in the glass well." The woman said.

"A few months ago, a shopkeeper named Tian went to Harbin to sell soju. This time I came here to buy a few hundred kilograms of them." Qian Xiaobao said.

The village with only a hundred families is well known to women who have lived here for more than ten years. After hearing Qian Xiaobao's words, she pointed to the village with a weak hand and said, "The Tian family roasted pot is on the west side of the first street. It's just a big place to find it."

"Last year, he bought a little girl when he went to Harbin to sell wine." Qian Xiaobao said while drinking and eating.

When the woman heard Qian Xiaobao talk about this, she smiled on her face: "His wife has been in the house for more than ten years but can't get pregnant! Last year, she bought a little girl and came back and named her Zhaodi. This year, his wife really gave birth to a big fat boy!"

"So this little girl has made great contributions to his family's inheritance." Qian Xiaobao said with a smile.

"Girls are all cheap. They can help their family work at the age of six or seven. They can get married when they are raising them until they are 16 or seventeen. Then they go to their in-laws' house to have children and farm pigs for the rest of their lives." The woman replied calmly.

Qian Xiaobao picked up the wine glass and raised his head and drank it dry, then settled the accounts and walked out of the restaurant.

Qian Xiaobao was soaked and he was warm all over. He walked along the main street to the west of Yuquan Village in the northwest wind.

Three men working in the Tian family's cooking pot were naked and were using shovels to pick out the steaming lees from the cellar.

The heat from the lees made the house warm and not feel cold.

Tian Shunchen stood at the entrance of the cellar and picked out the lees in the cellar, then poured them from the two people behind to a farther place to pile them up.

But while he was sweating, he found that the two people outside stopped working and stood still.

"I paid for you two to work, not to let you two stick here like a telephone pole!" Tian Shunchen roared.

One of the two helpers looked at Tian Shunchen and raised his chin to the door.

The action means someone is coming.

Is someone here to buy wine again? Tian Shunchen hurriedly stood up and looked out from the top of the kiln.

A young man wearing a felt hat and a long cotton robe came out from the door and was watching the three of them by the door.

"Which one is Manager Tian? I came from Harbin to ask him for something to discuss." Qian Xiaobao asked.

Tian Shunchen was even happier. His wine has been sold to Harbin since last year. This man must have come to buy wine in person.

"Shanghaikeeper, wait a while, I will put on my clothes and come out!" Tian Shunchen said while picking up the cotton jacket placed on the kiln.

"Don't be idle, work quickly!" Tian Shunchen said while tying his buttons. Then he walked towards the door.

"The young shopkeeper went to the house with me. If you have any questions, let's sit on the kang and chat." Tian Shunchen said to Qian Xiaobao.

Tian Shunchen took Qian Xiaobao into the main room in the backyard. As soon as he entered the outer room, Qian Xiaobao saw a dirty little girl squatting next to the stove pit.

Qian Xiaobao's eyes could no longer be moved away. His eyes were staring at the little girl with dirt on her face like a flowery cat.

"If you want to go out and play, don't squat here to play mud!" Tian Shunchen howled and scared the little girl so much that she stood up and ran outside.

Qian Xiaobao grabbed the child's little hand and said to Tian Shunchen: "What are you calling? Can't you say anything well?"

Tian Shunchen was stunned for a long time before he reacted and said, "This is my child, and it is my business to beat or scold me. What does it have to do with you?"

"Your child? She is my child!" Qian Xiaobao said with a raised voice.

Tian Shunchen was completely stunned. He opened his eyes wide and looked at Qian Xiaobao straight.

The sound of shoes coming from the room came, and a woman in her thirties stood at the door holding a breast-filled child.

"Open the skylight and say something, I am the child's father! I'm here today to get back to the child." Qian Xiaobao said to Tian Shunchen.

The room was silent, and even the little girl raised her head blankly to look at Qian Xiaobao and Tian Shunchen.

"You said it's yours, it's yours? I took this back from Harbin for thirty yuan!" Tian Shunchen said.

"Is it taken back from Huifang? How much did it cost? Thirty yuan? Isn't it twenty?" Qian Xiaobao asked back.

"I gave that woman twenty yuan, and ten yuan to the madam of Yihonglou for the bridge and matchmaking money." Tian Shunchen replied.

Since Tian Shunchen always says that money cannot be separated, Qian Xiaobao is relieved.

It seems that the person in front of him can return the child to him by using money.

"I didn't say that I took the child away for nothing today. I will give you the money I should give you. Let's go into the house and chat now?" Qian Xiaobao said. Then he pulled the little girl's hand tightly and walked straight towards the inner room.

When Tian Shunchen saw Qian Xiaobao's attitude eased, he gave a wink at the woman holding the child and then went into the house with Qian Xiaobao.

The woman hugged the child and walked quickly outside.

"Stop!" Qian Xiaobao shouted. Then he took out a pistol from his waist with his other hand.

"Don't bother. You both go into the house." Qian Xiaobao said to the two of them.

This is how things in the world are. Other people's attitudes often change because of your attitude. If you act like you want to reason, the other party will think you are easy to bully and want to be a scoundrel.

If you act like a scoundrel, the other party is eager to reason with you.

Tian Shunchen gave his woman a look and must have asked her to go out to find someone. He just didn't know if he was looking for someone with an official position or a few big-sleeved and round waisted ones who were tempted by Qian Xiaobao.

Qian Xiaobao said to the door of the inner room with his gun: "It's useless to find anyone, it's not easy for me! Let's go into the house and talk well!"

The child who was breastfeeding in the woman's arms suddenly started crying. I wonder if it scared Qian Xiaobao so much that the woman's breasts stopped.

Qian Xiaobao pulled the little girl into the house and sat on the edge of the kang. Only then did he let go of his hand.

He put his pistol on the earthen kang and then picked up the old newspaper smoked from the cigarette on the earthen kang and tore off a square piece of tobacco leaves in the tobacco basket and put them on the newspaper and spit them firmly.

Take out a match from your pocket and light a cigarette. Qian Xiaobao took a beautiful mouthful and pointed at the newspaper and said, "Look, there are photos of Emperor Xuantong on the newspaper. Just smoke with this newspaper. I can catch you by placing a cigarette in this newspaper!

The two people who were at a loss at the end of the door were so scared that they shivered all over.

What Qian Xiaobao said just now was not a scary thing. Manchukuo was full of bags for Japanese people to ask for information, and they would find various reasons to extort the people. It is not a trivial matter to smoke newspapers and cigarettes with photos of Emperor Xuantong!

Moreover, Qian Xiaobao had just fired his pistol. This kid is probably plainclothes, which is even better than asking for money!

Tian Shunchen felt that his legs were trembling and could not walk any longer.

Qian Xiaobao took another sip and let two streams of cigarettes slowly emerge from his nostrils.
