It was between 9 and 11 a.m.

This time is precious for the small traders in the city, who sell vegetables, fruits, fish and meat, and sell cooked food and snacks to attract customers.

At a pier near the bustling street, a man dressed in a cloak with chest hair leaking out of his chest guard, his eyes staring at the dock in and out of the boats, said to the short man on the side.

"Little four, your father said that you will eat with me in the future. It is not difficult to do what we do, that is, the eyes must be careful, and the heart must be even more careful. ”

The chest-haired man pointed to a ship that had just docked and said, "Look at this ship, although it doesn't have a signboard, but it has a deep draft under the boat, and it also carries a lot of hay for waterproofing, and it should be carrying grain." There are not many helpers on the ship, and this kind of ship usually needs to be unloaded by hand, so you can contact the cargo owner first, negotiate the price, and then go to the dock to find a strong job and earn money from it, you know?"

The short man nodded his head, "Got it, Brother Chest-hair." ”

The chest-haired man was annoyed and slapped the short man on the head, "Who taught you to call it that, call me Brother Mao." ”

The short man touched his head and said aggrievedly: "That's what they call chicken heads." ”

The man with chest hair was even more annoyed when he heard this, "This chicken head, see if I turn around and don't clean him up." ”

It just so happened that when I said the chicken head, the chicken head came, not only came, but also ran with a shout.

"Brother Chest Hair, Brother Chest Hair, I have news of those two people. ”

"Smack!"

He was answered by a big hand, just like the short man, with a blow on the head.

The man with chest hair glared at the chicken head angrily, "Chicken head, I see that you are gallbladder, call me chest hair behind your back, I didn't hear it, forget it, now I dare to call on the street, do you want me to loosen your muscles and bones." ”

The chicken head covered his head and lowered his head, not daring to look at the man with chest hair, he secretly blamed himself, why did he call his chest hair in person in a hurry, it seems that he is going to suffer this time.

The chest-haired man snorted and said, "What news did you just say, if you fool me, you will be stripped naked and thrown into the river." ”

There are a few people who grew up by this river who can't water, but they were stripped naked in public, but they lost face and lost their hair.

In order not to let himself be bare-assed, the chicken head hurriedly said the news he learned, "It's the two people who came out yesterday for us to find, saying that one person is eight inside, and one person has a fox smell." ”

After hearing this, the chest-haired man became serious, "Oh, how did you know. ”

"Recently, the flower full building has made a name for itself in Yangzhou City, I think the flower full building is famous, the house price in the remote place of Dongjia Lane will definitely rise, and there will be many people who are willing to go there to buy a house, so I am squatting there these days to see if I can make a comparison. ”

The man with chest hair smiled and said: "Just your cleverness, let's talk about the point, why just talk about this." ”

was praised by someone, the chicken head smiled, and said: "Isn't it a long way back and forth, I was too lazy to come back the day before yesterday, and found a place to deal with it at the ferry crossing of Dongjia Lane for a night." It was before dawn that day that I saw the two of them, walking in a hurry, and carrying something. ”

"How can you be sure it's those two?" asked the chest-haired man.

"The smell of the fox on that person's body was blown by the wind to my sleeping place and woke me up. Then I was curious to follow and take a look, and saw another person walking is the inner eight, like a girl. ”

The head of the chicken touched his nose, as if remembering some bad taste.

"And do you know where they went?"

Being asked by this, the chicken head didn't know, but what came to mind didn't know whether to say it or not.

Looking at his inkblot, the man with chest hair was a little anxious and slapped him on the head with a palm, "Just say something, rub what?"

The chicken's little face was aggrieved, and he would be beaten if he said this.

"I saw them get on the boat, the boatman who was on the boat seemed to be Li Laosan, the sky was too dark, I couldn't see it very clearly, if not, then I would have put Li Laosan in the pit, and they invited me to drink. ”

"Yo, I didn't expect you to be quite righteous. ”

"Of course, how can I say that my chicken head is also a charlatan. The chicken head puffed up his thin chest and said.

This high and high is the rivers and lakes, and the peddlers and pawns are also the rivers and lakes.

If there is no peddler and pawn to cushion the foundation, how can there be heaven high and high.

... ...

In Lanyue Tower, Feng Xingzhi is still sitting in the old position, but today he is drinking and listening to books, not drinking tea and listening to books, because there is an old man sitting next to him, and the old man is called a fisherman.

What is the fisherman's real name, Feng Xing knows or not, and he hasn't asked.

I remember that the old man Nie said, the name, just a title, too much thinking will make you tired.

The fisherman is sitting here today listening to the book, and he was invited by Feng Xingzhi.

Yesterday, after Feng Xingzhi left the flower boat, he went to the fisherman again.

When he went again, he didn't go empty-handed, but brought twenty jars of aged rice wine.

Because he wanted to find the fisherman to inquire about the news of the two of them, one of them was walking and the other was wearing a fox smell.

The fisherman did not refuse, accepted his wine, and also accepted the invitation to come to this Lanyue Tower to listen to the book.

At that time, Feng Xingzhi said, "Fisherman, you are also drinking on the boat, or change places tomorrow and go to Lanyue Tower to drink while listening to books." ”

On the table, Feng Xingzhi filled the empty cups of the two of them, and listened to the storyteller on the stage talking about how Chu Jiaolong cramped and peeled the Jiaolong in the Chu River.

The fisherman picked up the wine glass, took a sip, smacked his mouth, and said to Feng Xingzhi: "I don't know how your rice wine is brewed, the taste is really positive." ”

After hearing this, Feng Xingzhi smiled and said nothing.

Most of the drinks in this Lanyue Building are self-supplied, but the output is not large, and it is mainly consumed internally.

The brewing process in this life is not bad, and there are relatively perfect techniques from the selection of recipes to the distillation of liquor.

Besides, the brewing workshop was not built by Feng Xingzhi himself, but won by a bet, and the person who lost the bet is still in the brewing workshop.

"Smack!"

The storyteller talked about the climax, and the sound of the waking wood on the case attracted all the eyes of the audience, rolled up his sleeves and continued: "That Chu Jiaolong is worthy of being the master of a gang, I saw him grab the Jiaolong horn with both hands, lift the Jiaolong whole, and slam it on the river beach, that sound is really resounding for nine days......

Listening to the storyteller's hard speech, Feng Xingzhi asked the fisherman softly, "Then Chu Jiaolong really killed Jiaolong alone?"

"It's not. ”

Exhaled, Feng Xingzhi secretly said, it turned out to be a storyteller's fabrication, even if Chu Jiaolong's skills were as deep as the sea, he couldn't do it to cramp and peel the skin of Jiaolong.

The fisherman turned his glass and said, "It's the two of you." ”

was engaged in the fisherman's intermittent two sentences, and Feng Xingzhi almost choked on the wine.

"Who is the other one?" asked Feng Xingzhi with a surprised face.

"Commander of the Kirin Guard. ”

Manpower alone can actually fight with Jiaolong, and also kill Jiaolong, what kind of power is needed, it is really terrifying.

In Fengxingzhi's cognition, Jiaolong is like a fantasy-like existence.

When Feng Xingzhi was immersed in shock, the fisherman's entourage Scarface walked in from outside, whispered a few words in the fisherman's ear, and left again.

The fisherman put it in the wine glass and said to Feng Xingzhi: "The two people you are looking for have eyebrows. ”

Feng Xingzhi's eyes widened slightly, and he said, "So fast?"

"Hehe, Yangzhou City is not big, the population is not much, as long as it is a person, it is necessary to have food, clothing, housing and transportation, and these are more or less inseparable from our people, where there are people, where my ears are. ”

The fisherman picked up the flask on the table and poured himself a glass, which he drank in one gulp.

After listening to it, Feng Xingzhi on the side also picked up the cup and accompanied him with a cup.

... ...

on Hundred Flowers Street.

"Childe, there is Wanzi Qianhong Pavilion in front, Li Laosan is a handyman there, and he should be working in it now. The head of the chicken reached out and pointed at the Windranger.

Feng Xingzhi took out two ingots of silver from his arms, "Thank you two, these should buy some wine for the two of you." ”

The chest-haired man who came after said: "Childe, you are our head friend, these little favors are nothing, please take back the silver." ”

Feng Xingzhi shook his head, "I'm friends with the fisherman, but it's you who help, and I can't help it because of such a hot weather, so I can't help it, don't shirk it." ”

The man with the chest and the head of the chicken looked at each other, and then accepted the silver.

Ten taels of silver ingots is a month's income for those who run the rivers and lakes at the bottom, and it is naturally good to have more income, of course, if they don't have it, they won't complain in their hearts.

Bidding farewell to the two, Feng Xingzhi walked into this Thousand Purples and Thousands of Red Pavilions.

After entering the door, I naturally took a look at it first.

This building is nothing special from the outside, up and down a total of five floors, into this building does not feel like a flower building, but like a academy.

There are a lot of calligraphy and paintings in the building, and there are bookshelves, Feng Xingzhi picked up one curiously, shook his head, and put it back.

The book had obviously not been turned, the paper was very new, there was not a single wrinkle, and it seemed that the furnishings were just elegant.

"Childe is polite, look at your face, but it's the first time I've come. ”

The person who came was a woman, in her twenties, with a beautiful face and a lady's dress.

"Oh, we have sent so many people, but the Taoist students think that it is the first time for me to come, and you have such a good memory?"

The woman covered her mouth and chuckled, a gesture that felt charming even if she was wearing a lady's outfit.

"Most of the guests who come into the building are looking for fun, but they will not be interested in these books, Childe, you don't look for the girl first but come to touch the book, and the little woman will know." ”

Feng Xingzhi touched the root of his ears, and then his face was depressed, "I've been having a lot of troubles lately, and I want to find a place to drink and relieve my boredom, you can arrange it." ”

The woman leaned over, put her hands on Feng Xingzhi's hands, and her face was a little melancholy, "Nine times out of ten, the world is unsatisfactory, there is more depression and less joy, son, you can see it, this good spring is just time to let go and have more fun." ”

With a single word, the relationship between the living and the human has been brought closer, and the action is intimate and not debauched, which makes people itch.

A glimpse of the whole leopard can be seen, just to welcome the ladies, there is such a means, this thousand purple and red pavilion is a little interesting.
