Start with an antique shop and become rich overnight

Chapter 255: Lantern Festival
Shopkeeper Jin recalled that when he first met Wen Zhi, he was only in his teens and had not yet reached adulthood.

In the blink of an eye, all the children got married.

At that time, foreigners burned, killed and looted everywhere. The tragedy was truly horrifying. It was not uncommon for people to eat their own children during their escape.

All his fellow villagers who fled with him were gone, but his family was lucky enough to reach the capital.

The capital city was also in chaos, and the city gates were not opened for these refugees. It was still early spring, and many children were poorly clothed and caught colds without any medicine to treat them.

Everyone wanted to go into the city to seek refuge, but those princes and ministers couldn't even protect themselves, so who would care about their lives?

He survived on a few biscuits.

Later, when foreign invaders came, the old soldiers and remnant generals personally invited by the late queen resisted for a day.

So many lines of defense have been broken, not to mention that they are just some retired veterans, it is already very difficult to hold out for a while.

Just when the foreigners were about to break through the capital, the Lord appeared like a god descending from heaven and saved me from almost dying at the hands of the foreigners outside the city.

He said he wanted to follow the master to repay him for saving his life.

Shopkeeper Jin still remembers that Wen Zhi said calmly at that time that there was no need, his target was only foreigners, and saving people was just a coincidence.

But in the end, the master still let him stay in the mansion to work, did not ask him to sign the indenture, and gave him a sum of money.

As for wages, how could they be paid so much in such a chaotic time?

"That money is useless to me. You can use it to buy land and shops in the future."

My Lord, you should not like such a thing as a body contract. Now no one in the mansion has a body contract.

At that time, he thought about staying and working for the rest of his life, so he bought a shop and wrote a letter at the adults' house.

The wealthy families in the capital all have farms and shops, and they cannot support themselves just by relying on salaries.

Unexpectedly, the news that came back was the death of the adults.

Afterwards, the former supervisor sent someone to find a way out for the people in the mansion at that time and changed their names.

He guessed that there was something wrong with the adult's death, and he had seen with his own eyes that the injuries on the adult's body were different from those of ordinary people.

But these were not things that an ordinary person like him with no power or influence could ask.

The former supervisor said that we should never mention the Imperial Master again, as who knows when he might come back, and we should always pay back the life we ​​owe.

Until then, say sorry for yourself.

He also said that he really couldn't bear to see the world fall into chaos again. The wise rulers who could succeed to the throne and allow Da Qi to recuperate were gone, and Da Qi's national fortunes were already in decline.

If we don't do that, the world will be in chaos within a few years.

Jian Zheng was the most approachable person among all the nobles he had met during his escape to the capital, except for the Imperial Master.

Manager Jin didn't know what the supervisor did, he only knew that not long after, the supervisor also passed away.

It seemed that Da Qi had lost many important officials all of a sudden.

For ordinary people like them, life goes on day by day. Compared with those who were sent back to their hometowns or sold into slavery, they are already very lucky. They have some family assets, and life is not bad in times without war.

After so many years, his small teahouse has turned into a teahouse, business is flourishing and his life is peaceful.

He never thought that the master would really come back. After that, he expanded the business, took over the teahouse, and settled his family outside the capital to manage other businesses.

In his heart, adults have always been his boss.

He wanted to return the property to the adults, but the adults refused. They were right about not letting anyone know that they knew each other.

Then again, adults nowadays are indeed more like human beings.

At first, there was no concern in his eyes, as if nothing in the world made any difference as long as he had to complete what he was supposed to do.

If it were him at that time, he might not have been so lucky to be with Miss Shen.

The more Shopkeeper Jin thought about it, the more it made sense.

At this time, there was a bang, and fireworks bloomed in the sky. It was not as spectacular and gorgeous as modern fireworks, but with the swaying lanterns and the bustling streets, it was another completely different scenery. Walking on the river bank, Shen You bought two lotus lanterns, and when he put them down, he looked at the beautiful profile of the person next to him.

Suddenly he said, "You are so emotionally stable."

It is true that those who once fought side by side with him later had different positions, but they also did betray him, who once saved this land.

If it were her, she might go crazy and kill everyone.

Wen Zhi held her somewhat cold fingers, and the smile on his face made the brilliant lights in his sight lose their color.

"Are you complimenting me?"

Shen You answered without hesitation, "Well, yes."

Then, I thought: What kind of brain circuit is this?

No wonder the police were speechless when they met for the first time.

Wen Zhi was thinking that he had asked Manager Xiao Lu what kind of person a girl like Shen You would like.

Xiao Lu said he didn’t know, but since he was emotionally stable and good-looking, there was no doubt about it.

He was very happy after hearing this.

"When I was a human, that was considered a part of me. I must fight to the death. I can also see the rules and destiny when I come."

These are the 'gods' that the priests had spoken of.

He was within the rules, so he could understand that the priest who was like a god at that time was not troubled at all when he could see the fate of all the people.

At that time, his biggest obsession was to find out whether the god-like priest would be moved at all when hearing the news of his death.

Even if it was just a hint, it was a pity that he never knew the answer until his death.

Retracting his thoughts, Wen Zhi continued,

"The Supervisor has violated a cardinal rule in this line of work. As for the old Emperor, there is no need to take it to heart."

When mentioning the old emperor, Wen Zhi's tone was clearly filled with disdain.

"He has now passed the pressure on to his descendants. How long the Great Qi can survive depends entirely on the next new ruler. Some problems cannot be changed overnight."

If they had not touched Liu Yunyan, at least the country would not have been destroyed while Liu Yunyan was guarding the territory.

However, after the Great Qi Dynasty, the next person entrusted with the destiny of heaven also came from the Liu family.

Shen You watched the river lanterns they had just released disappear from sight and asked curiously, "What did you write on the river lanterns?"

"If you say it out loud, the wish won't come true." Wen Zhi chuckled. All he wrote was her name and one sentence, "Happy Chang'an."

"You're not going to write about making a billion or something like that?"

"." Shen You knew that he asked on purpose. She had just accidentally seen the two words. Her handwriting was not good, so she hid aside reflexively.

"Yes, it's similar to this."

In fact, she wrote both of their names, but she didn’t say it!
Wen Zhi lowered his head, his eyes reflecting her face and the countless lights behind her, and the corners of his lips slightly raised.
"I see. In your heart, I am as important as making 1 billion."

Thinking of this, his eyes lit up.

Shen You hissed and said with a smile, "You can interpret it."

The two returned to Wen Zhi's house together and then went straight back to the shop.

Wen Zhi still had to go back to the tent thousands of miles away. Shen You went upstairs to change into home clothes and take off her hair. No matter how simple the hairstyle was in ancient times, it was still heavy, so she used a wig.

It's easy to take apart the whole head.

the other side.

The old emperor in the palace had a hard time.
