Rebirth to 90s: Start from Scratch

Chapter 49



Chapter 49 Kowtow to apprentice

After eating, the old Chinese doctor left Zhang Qianxiu to drink tea.

Although tea is a culture that has been passed down for thousands of years in China, there are not many people who drink tea in Xiaojiang Province, especially those who use a whole set of tea sets to make tea.

Zhang Qianxiu looked at the old Chinese doctor’s skill in making tea, and could even be said to be beautiful, and couldn’t help but admire: “Looking at the old man’s method, the tea art must be extraordinary!”

“I read this all by myself. I just drink tea for pleasure. When I have nothing to do, I think about things, and I can’t sit still, so I drink tea.” The old Chinese doctor began to divide the tea and said: “I My name is Ge Qingshan. Although I have not been with you for a long time, I still like your character very much. I can’t make money with my own ability, but it is also the handicraft of our ancestors. If you don’t dislike it, I am I want to accept you as a disciple.”

Zhang Qianxiu knew that Ge Qingshan was good at Chinese studies, martial arts, and medical skills. He can tell from his stitching technique. Not only is TCM doctors good, but surgery is not too bad.

However, Zhang Qianxiu did not want to go to the ring or be a martial arts master, second did not want to be a master of Chinese learning, third did not want to be a doctor, he did not want to spend too much time on this.

Zhang Qianxiu said embarrassedly: “Ge Lao, I know you have a good intention, and I have the heart to learn from you, but I do business, I am afraid I don’t have much time to learn.”

Ge Qingshan was stunned for a moment. He didn’t expect Zhang Qianxiu to refuse, but when he stood in the position of Zhang Qianxiu, he did not have much time.

Ge Qingshan thought for a while, and said, “Let’s do it! You follow me in majoring in Chinese studies and minoring in martial arts. I’m afraid you won’t be able to use this medical skill. Then you can learn some things for self-cultivation from me. Chinese studies can cultivate the mind. Recalling the past and thinking about the present; martial arts can build up the body without doing high-intensity training.”

“You don’t need too much time to learn, you come when you are free.”

The words have been said for this purpose, and Zhang Qianxiu was embarrassed to refuse: “That’s OK, listen to Old Ge.”

Ge Qingshan smiled slightly and said: “Although I can accept modern thoughts, I also respect the etiquette of the ancients. Since you agreed, this apprenticeship is still to be done.”

Zhang Qianxiu immediately understood, got up and knelt down in front of Ge Qingshan, knocked three heads, and called out, “Master!”

Then, Zhang Qianxiu held up a cup of tea, lowered his head, and raised his hands above his head: “Master, please use tea.”

Ge Qingshan took the tea and took a sip: “Okay, get up!”

The etiquette is simple, but it can be regarded as a teacher’s ceremony.

Zhang Qianxiu stood up and sat back in his place.

Ge Qingshan got up and walked towards the back room: “Wait a moment, I’ll get something.”

Soon, Ge Qingshan came out, and what he took was a book.

Ge Qingshan handed the book to Zhang Qianxiu and said, “This is not a precious thing. It is the “Tao De Jing” I copied by hand. It is my apprenticeship to you. Taoist, all-inclusive and surpassing all things, I hope you one day , Can walk out of one’s own way.”

Zhang Qianxiu rarely reads these things, and he seems to understand the so-called “Tao”, but he still accepted the book: “Thank you, Master.”

Ge Qingshan nodded slightly: “Okay, you still have business to do, you have nothing to do in your free time, read more books, and sit down with me more.”

………

Zhang Qianxiu took the rice back to the market, the rice in the store was almost sold, and Zhang Jiankang went out to deliver the rice.

Huang Enquan saw Zhang Qianxiu coming back and hurried up: “Brother Xiu, I’m almost hungry and dizzy.”

Having said that, Huang Enquan took the lunch box from Zhang Qianxiu’s hand and took out the small one, which was just gobbled up.

Zhang Qianxiu sat down on the side, took out the Tao Te Ching sent by Ge Qingshan, and began to look through it.

Although he has heard of the book “Tao Te Ching” for decades, he also knows that “Tao is Tao, very Tao; the name is good, very famous.” Such opening sentences, but he has never read this book. book.

Zhang Qianxiu opened the first page and it was written in pen, with a lot of notes and some understandings and opinions of Ge Qingshan.

You can understand the original text while reading the notes.

After a while, Zhang Jiankang returned, and when he saw Zhang Qianxiu he smiled sly: “Brother Xiu, I’m hungry.”

Zhang Qianxiu pointed to the big bowl on the table: “Healthy, sorry, it took a while.”

“It’s okay!” Zhang Jiankang said as he picked up the big bowl, the vegetables and rice in it were piled like a hill.

Zhang Jiankang picked up a piece of fat and stuffed it into his mouth, and said, “It’s delicious!”

Huang Enquan took the fat in his bowl to Zhang Jiankang: “Here you are, I don’t eat fat.”

Zhang Jiankang wanted to give the lean meat to Huang Enquan: “Then I will give you the lean meat.”

Huang Enquan shook his head: “No, I can’t eat so much.”

Zhang Jiankang believed, nodded “Oh”, then bowed his head to eat.

Zhang Qianxiu looked at Zhang Jiankang’s silly look, and couldn’t help but smile.

After Huang Enquan had eaten, he hurried to buy the goods he wanted to bring to the market vendors, and then hurried back to the market to go to the county seat of Ramila.

Pulling rice at a time is not enough. If you want to pull a little more at a time, the market will be that big.

Now the second time is not enough, because every morning it has been collected almost, and the rest is collected by the rice dealer.

Other grain and oil stores, not only the market in this town, but also the market in other towns, there is basically no problem of insufficient supply, and sometimes they will control the purchase volume.

After Huang Enquan left, Zhang Qianxiu and Zhang Jiankang were left behind.

Zhang Qianxiu wondered how to solve the problem of purchasing.

If you go to find someone to help you collect it, the average person can’t do it at all. You need a motorcycle.

If you take a minibus, you will be exhausted, and you will earn a few dollars a day, all of which is used to ride a car and rent a car; if you use a bicycle, the road is too far, I am afraid that many people are unwilling to do it.

Zhang Qianxiu thought of the rice dealers in Hemu Town.

These people have enough rice harvesting experience, and they also have motorcycles. If they can cooperate with them, the rice harvesting problem will be solved.

But when I went to cooperate with them, Zhang Qianxiu still had some resistance from the bottom of his heart. After all, there was a conflict with them, and Zhang Qianxiu didn’t have much favor with these people.

But apart from these people, Zhang Qianxiu really couldn’t find other suitable candidates.

Just when Zhang Qianxiu was thinking about something, the business came: “Boss, give me 50 catties of rice, I heard that you can give it away?”

Zhang Qianxiu quickly got up: “Ah, yes, yes!”

“Fifty catties, help me weigh it.”

Zhang Qianxiu immediately called Zhang Jiankang to weigh rice.

Before Huang Enquan came back, the rice in the store was already sold out. Zhang Qianxiu had to close the door and went to the market door to wait for Huang Enquan to return.

When Huang Enquan came back, it was already past three in the afternoon. The rice recovered was sold out again at six in the afternoon. Sometimes the business was good. Zhang Jiankang sent a place, Huang Enquan sent a place, and Zhang Qianxiu stayed at the shop.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Qianxiu was thinking about how to solve the problem of entering rice.
