Chapter 140: Silver Falling from Heaven
A lump of silver suddenly fell from the sky without warning, and fell on the torn quilt in the cart on the ground. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 Info looked at the crowd rushing behind me, and the earth-shattering cries, I couldn't close my mouth with the silver in my hand. It's not pie in the sky, it's silver in the sky!
I hurriedly said to my uncle, "Uncle, let Lao Huang work harder, we have to run quickly." ”
Seeing the wolf-like crowd behind him, he pounced with his teeth and claws. Although the uncle didn't understand the situation, he had a strong sense of crisis, and he rushed forward with the old scalper. Fortunately, the streets are idle, there are no people, or there must be some traffic accidents or something.
To say that the group of women who were chasing after them were not afraid of bad image, they all ran crookedly, sweaty, and the ox cart ran out of two streets before throwing them away.
In fact, it can't be completely shaken off, because there is a girl with amazing endurance who refuses to give up, and runs behind the ox cart while shouting, "Wait... Wait, wait... etc..."
She wore a half-worn navy blue coarse cloth dress with a small white flower pinned to her head. I thought, isn't this the girl who knelt down and begged to be taken in just now?
After looking behind me to make sure that there were no large numbers of people coming, I said to my uncle, "Uncle, stop for a while." ”
The uncle grabbed the reins in response, and the old ox mooed and stopped in front of a very imposing two-story restaurant. The smell of food wafted out of it, and I swallowed reflexively. This is really a broken iron shoe with nowhere to be found, and it is not a waste of effort to get it.
The girl caught up, panting with one knee in one hand, and stretched out the other hand in front of me, and said word by word, "Put... Silver... Child... To give... I. ”
I said, "Why? God gave it to me." You said let me give it to you, I'll give it to you? How can it be so cheap, you can wait for the sky to fall if you want!"
"You—" She was about to get angry, but immediately begged me again, "Little brother, if you are good, give it to me!
I looked at the silver in her hand, felt untrustworthy, and resolutely rejected her, saying, "Ten taels for five taels? What kind of trick are you doing? Do you want to deceive our uninformed countrymen?
She said, "Little brother, you misunderstood, I'm not a liar. There is a saying for the five taels of silver in your hand, as long as I take the silver back, the son will take me by his side. ”
What kind of bullshit logic is this, I said, "Girl, you are stupid! Even if you get these five taels of silver, it is useless, and the people will run away by now." ”
"Ahh
Looking at her back, I said in my heart, this girl lacks heart!
The uncle asked me blankly, "Little brother, what's going on?"
I took the five taels of silver in my hand and threw it away, and said with a smile, "Uncle, we are developed today, and all the silver from the sky will be given to us." ”
The shopkeeper, who had been watching coldly from the sidelines, saw the silver flying up and down in my hand, and immediately lowered his head and smiled, "Two guest officers, please inside." ”
I held my head high and said to Xiao Er with great spirits, "Go and feed our old yellow some good forage." "To get these five taels of silver, the old scalper who pulled the cart has made a great contribution.
"Okay!" Xiao Er smiled and pulled the ox cart away.
I took my uncle's arm and said, "Let's go, uncle, let's eat." ”
The uncle said with a shy face, "It seems to be quite expensive here, is our identity appropriate?"
I said, "The prince will be like Ning You, what is suitable or not, don't forget that we are rich people now, this time you can just shake off your cheeks and eat." ”
The uncle didn't refuse, grinned and was pulled into the restaurant by me. This restaurant looks magnificent on the outside, and the decoration inside is also very luxurious. The first floor is an extremely spacious hall, with a red carpet platform in the middle, which should be used for performances, and the dining tables are arranged around the platform. The second floor is a private room, but there are still tables on the veranda outside the private room against the railing, which is supposed to be convenient for guests in the private room to watch the performance.
If you want to come here at night, it must be very lively, but this day is too deserted, and there are few tables of guests in the hall of Nuoda. It stands to reason that it is the time to eat at noon, and it should not be so deserted, and I am secretly worried that the food here will not be delicious. But seeing the disgust and contempt on the face of Xiao Er who came to greet me, I felt that this meal must be eaten no matter how delicious it is.
found a low table by the window and sat down, and Xiao Er poured two cups of hot tea with an awkward face. The uncle was completely uncomfortable, and I didn't ask for his opinion, so I made my own decision and ordered a table of chicken, duck and fish, and he shouted that enough was enough, enough.
After the storm passed, when I asked Xiao Er to come over to settle the account, I thought about educating him by the way. I squinted at him and said, "Your food is very average. “
Xiao Er said unconvinced, "Guest officer, this is the best restaurant in the entire Luzhou City." ”
I said, "Best? Stop bragging. You see how many people eat here? Not as many as the roadside stalls! Although we countrymen have little knowledge, we can still taste the food if we don't like it. ”
Xiao Er said, "The guest officer came from the countryside and may not know that there have been young men who have disappeared inexplicably in Luzhou City recently, and everyone in the city is in danger." Because of this, many people do not dare to go out easily, which leads to the depression of the market. ”
I said, "Are you bluffing, are you just throwing a few men? Are all the men in Luzhou City soft eggs?"
Xiao Er was anxious when he heard this, "Why am I bluffing you? The city will be under martial law at night, and there will be patrolling guards everywhere. Just ask someone. ”
I thought for a moment, maybe there was really some chaos in this city, and I had to get my uncle home as soon as possible. asked Xiao Er to find the extra money, and went out of the restaurant with the uncle.
The little two who greeted the guests in front of the building pulled the ox cart over with great eyes, and I rewarded him with a penny of silver arrogantly, and his eyes immediately rose up when he looked at me.
The uncle sat in front of the car, and I was still sitting on the carriage, and when I was about to leave, a well-dressed white fat man suddenly came out of the restaurant, stopped me and said, "This little brother, please stay." ”
My first impression of this person was that he was obscene, so I was very reluctant to deal with him, so I asked coldly, "Is there something wrong?"
He smiled treacherously and said, "Little brother, have we met before?"
I said, "You must be mistaken, I'm a countryman, where can I see a rich man like you?"
"Oh, is it?" he narrowed his small eyes as if to pierce me.
I didn't answer again, worried that he might really know me, so I urged my uncle to drive to the rice shop to buy rice. The uncle was very obedient and ran away with the old man.
The white fat man watched the ox cart leave in the same place, and he couldn't hold back his excitement.
At this time, a man with a mustache and sharp-beaked monkey cheeks came out of the restaurant, he stood beside the white fat man, and asked with some doubts, "Master, what is there to look at this young man in the countryside?"
The white fat man smiled, "Without the brocade clothes and black hair like clouds, you can't see who he is?"
Bazi Hu paused, "It looks a little similar, but she is dead, and it is impossible for her to live in the world." Maybe it's because people are similar!"
The white fat man said, "People may be similar, but her extravagance can't be covered by tattered clothes." You sent someone to keep an eye on me, and I took the two of them tonight. This time it's probably going to be more money than we've ever made before, and it's going to be more fun. ”
The mustache immediately glanced at a few seemingly idle passers-by, and they followed the ox cart in the direction of it. And he followed the white fat man back and forth into the restaurant.
