Chapter 1476 Wang Jijun also went to sell grain
Because of Sun Shan's urging, Magistrate Wang's work efficiency improved dramatically. He didn't want to improve it, but he had no choice but to because of Sun Shan's constant urging.
County Magistrate Wang even specially invited Zhang, the most popular "fortune teller" in Yuanlu County, to calculate the departure date.
After doing all the calculations, I realized that three days later would be an auspicious day for a long journey.
May your journey be smooth sailing, with everything going smoothly, including good fortune, success in your career, love, and all things going well. May our motherland become stronger and more prosperous.
There were three other single men in Sunjia Village who heard nothing but that they would be leaving in three days and that their love lives would be smooth sailing.
He urged Sun Dali and Dege'er to set off immediately.
While making money is important for this long-distance "escort mission," marriage is even more pressing. Who knows, when I return, a little sister might just appear out of nowhere.
Ever since Big Head Dog got engaged and was preparing to get married before the new year, the three single men among the Sun family's guards have been giving off eerie green eyes from time to time.
He even pestered the old lady of the Sun family all day long, asking her to introduce him to a wife.
Su: ......
Screw you! What does it matter to her whether they get married or not? Anyway, her son Shanzi is already married.
Just thinking about how the only child in the entire backyard of the yamen was Little Fatty, and that she was a girl, made Su grit her teeth in hatred.
He would occasionally use his raised, eye-rolling expression to diss Sister Yun.
Three single men are worried, but how could she, the Su family, not be worried?
Three days later, the grain-selling team from Yuanlu County was assembled and set off.
Dege stood at the front like a proud rooster, and to make a show of himself, he even had Granny He sew a new set of silk clothes for him overnight.
Whether it was because of Granny He's excellent craftsmanship or his own good looks, once he put on this outfit, he stood out from the crowd of people with NPC-like appearances, looking handsome and dashing.
He was the eldest son of a very wealthy family.
Dege shouted happily, "Shanzi, don't worry, I will definitely complete the mission this time."
He spoke with a radiant smile, full of spirit and high morale—a true young man of the Han Dynasty.
Sun Shan: ...
He secretly glanced at the official uniform. It was thanks to the official uniform that De Ge'er's arrogant demeanor was suppressed, preventing him from becoming just another nobody like Sun Caogen, Sun Heitan, or Da Tou Gou.
He stood in the center of the crowd so that everyone could immediately recognize him as the biggest boss in the room.
Sun Shan nodded with a forced smile and a reserved demeanor: "Okay, go and come back soon."
Dege'er, head held high and chest puffed out, said proudly, "Shanzi, don't worry, this time I guarantee we'll make a fortune and live up to your expectations."
Sun Shan glared at him, then saw Wang Jia's Jun Yazi.
He frowned and asked, "Master Wang, is Young Master Jun going too?"
Master Wang bowed and scraped, smiling awkwardly yet politely, and said, "Sir, this is a rare opportunity to travel, so let the young man go out and broaden his horizons."
Wang Jijun stood meekly in the crowd. He only raised his head for a moment, but Sun Shan spotted him and he quickly lowered his head, not daring to meet Sun Shan's venomous eyes.
Emma, Lord Sun may be short and thin, but his ruthless killing of bandits is unforgettable.
Do not get close to Lord Sun, and absolutely do not speak to him.
Sun Shan asked in confusion, "Master Wang, isn't Young Master Jun studying at the county school? What's going on here...?"
Master Wang said helplessly, "My son Junya has disappointed his parents. He dropped out of the county school two months ago. Alas, he's as stupid as a pig and really can't continue studying. It's better to just take him home."
Actually, it wasn't Wang Jijun who dropped out of school, but rather he was forced to drop out by Instructor Deng.
Wang Jijun was not only bad at studying, but he also led students to eat, drink, and have fun, making the "poor student class" in the county school even more chaotic.
When Instructor Deng saw this, he thought, "This is outrageous!"
Although it is difficult to salvage a student's academic performance, their conduct is still acceptable. Parents send their children to school not expecting them to learn anything, but simply hoping they won't become "good-for-nothings."
With Wang Jijun around, the underachieving students followed him around, making a complete mess of the class atmosphere.
Instructor Deng went directly to Master Wang's door and asked him to take the person back.
This infuriated Old Master Wang. He didn't want to drop out of school, but unfortunately, many of the Wang family's children were in the county school and were still counting on Instructor Deng for their instruction.
Therefore, the only option is to sacrifice Wang Jijun to benefit the entire Wang family.
Wang Jijun became a dropout.
When Sun Shan heard that Wang Jijun had dropped out of school, he wondered how many times he had dropped out before, and it seemed that he really couldn't continue his studies.
For a moment I was worried that he would cause trouble in Yuanlu County, but now I see that he is going to go on a business trip, which means he will be far away from Yuanlu County.
Sun Shan agreed, saying, "Master Wang, you're right. There are top performers in every profession. If you don't succeed in your studies, you don't have to stick to this path. There are many other paths to choose from in life. Young Master Jun likes doing business; perhaps he'll shine here in the future."
Master Wang's face lit up with joy. Who wouldn't want to hear nice words, especially when they came from Lord Sun? They were even more pleasant to hear.
He said happily, "Sir, that's what I think too. My son, Junya, is completely different from his older brother. He's always loved tinkering and can't sit still to study. This time, we're letting him help sell grain to see if he can do business. Thank you, sir, for giving Junya this opportunity."
Wang Jijun's first business venture ended in disaster; he lost everything and nearly lost his life.
When Mr. Wang went to do business with Sun Shan's group for the second time, he wasn't worried at all.
Lord Sun is usually very careful in his work, so he must have made proper arrangements. Besides, his cousin is going with him this time, which makes it even safer.
Wang Jijun was initially overjoyed to hear that they were going to sell grain in Dongting Lake, but his face immediately fell when he learned that the team's security captain was Sun Dali.
He muttered, "Grandpa, Father, I don't want to go. That Sun Dali is so violent. He's the one who broke my leg, and it still hurts."
Although my leg has healed, it still has some aftereffects, such as occasional numbness and slight pain.
The doctor looked at him from all angles but couldn't find a cure, and told him that it was good enough if it didn't affect his travel.
Wang Jijun was extremely frustrated.
Master Wang glared at him: "Don't you always clamor to do business? This time, the grain trade is a huge operation, a rare opportunity. You're not going? Humph, don't clamor to go trading next time."
Old Master Wang also said, "My dear grandson, I feel at ease because Lord Sun's first personal bodyguard is going with him. With him there, we won't be afraid of bandits. I would only not let you go if it were a member of the Wang family."
That makes a lot of sense, but Wang Jijun was really afraid that if Sun Dali hit him with a stick, he would become a cripple again.
Magistrate Wang instructed, "Nephew, when you go there, remember to listen more and learn more and speak less. It would be best if you could build good relations with the merchants of Dongting Lake. Lord Sun has already set up the bridge; whether it's useful or not depends on you."
Of course, this was just talk; Wang Jijun was far from comfortable with liaising with the Sun family.
This time, the Wang family also sent a senior steward as the deputy steward.
Under repeated persuasion, Wang Jijun had no choice but to bite the bullet and follow the group.
