Chapter 272: Fate Meets Again

If you haven't seen the martial arts rivers and lakes, you think that the martial arts rivers and lakes are what you imagined. If Qin Chuan had not entered the ranks of martial arts cultivators, and had been able to come to Ningzhou City alone without the protection of the old Dao, I am afraid that he would not have seen such a prosperous scene at this time. At this moment, Qin Chuan was like a countryman entering the city for the first time, looking at the prosperous scene, his eyes were a little wide-eyed, and it was a little strange to look at everything.

The first thing that catches your eye is those merchants who rub shoulders, some carry burdens, some drive carriages past Qin Chuan, wearing different clothes, as if they have come to Ningzhou City to catch the market; the people of Ningzhou City seem to know how to enjoy more than other state cities, from time to time someone sells ice packs, which are covered with thick quilts to prevent the cold air from running to other places. Behind the ice pack sales, there is always a group of children who are happy to do it, even if they don't have much money in their hands, as long as they can see the ice packs, they are happy. Just like Qin Chuan came to Qingzhou City for the first time, although it was a barren place in the eyes of people from other states, it was already very lucky for Qin Chuan to be sitting in a well and watching the sky at that time, and to be able to see so many people. Just like the children in front of you, you don't have to care about other people's eyes, you just need to be happy.

On both sides of the streets of Ningzhou City, there are many merchants selling things sent from the capital, many of which have the smell of wind and dust, and even hot. It seems that the merchants left shortly after unloading their goods. For the residents of the neighborhood, it is worth it to be able to enjoy the novelties from the capital for the first time, even if it is to pay a little more to win. It's just that these merchants seem to be more snobbish, and they don't even look at some poor people who come over, but those who are graceful and luxurious begin to go out to greet them from a long distance. Qin Chuan looked at the shop next to him, and then looked at the shabby cotton jacket he was wearing, in the hot summer, it was vaguely not too normal, looking at a place next to him selling fashionable clothes, Qin Chuan thought about it, or buy some seasonal clothes, at least he looked more comfortable.

Ever since Qin Chuan promised Shen Lingqiu that he would take Chen Xiangyuan away, he had been thinking about how to achieve it with a sad face. In Ningzhou City, the guards around Chen Xiangyuan are definitely not only those beside him, but there are even some secret guards, waiting for the person to assassinate Chen Xiangyuan in a corner that others can't see. Qin Chuan knew that he couldn't act recklessly, even if he couldn't catch Chen Xiangyuan, he couldn't put his life on the line, there were still many things in this long world that he hadn't enjoyed, so he would die with a whimper, which was obviously not Qin Chuan's style. What's more, Shen Lingqiu doesn't look good, if she really can't do it, then she will run away with oil on the soles of her feet, she is so ruthless, without her own help, she will definitely be able to realize the plans in her heart one by one. Qin Chuan really doesn't like the feeling of being treated as a pawn, if it weren't for Shen Lingqiu's posture that made Qin Chuan a little confused, Qin Chuan would definitely go to other places to be happy and happy, where would he care about the life and death of others?

Qin Chuan thought about things, casually walked into a clothing shop, looked at the decoration was extremely luxurious, and built a threshold with pure gold at the door, and before entering the store, he could smell the smell of precious sandalwood. The shop doesn't look big, but there are more than 20 guys, busy running back and forth, and they don't necessarily stop for a moment. However, these guys are very particular, their hair is combed and shiny, there is no mess, and they are also wearing special clothes, and they seem to be a little different in the same color.

Qin Chuan walked into the clothes shop in a daze, a guy in front of him was cutting clothes, and when he saw Qin Chuan walking in, he completed the things in hand without saying a word, and did not stop his movements because of the guests, which really scared him for Qin Chuan. However, Qin Chuan was not in a hurry or impatient, after waiting for a long time next to him, he watched the guy put down the scissors, but he didn't say anything, he was waiting for the guy to speak first, when a place is not familiar, sometimes it seems to be the best way to respond to changes with the same. Qin Chuan was not familiar with this place, but he could only rely on that guy's introduction.

I saw that the guy found a wet rag, cleaned all the threads on the table, and did not see any mess, after completing all this, he asked Qin Chuan unhurriedly: "The guest officer has been waiting for a long time, this is about to be the summer solstice, the old men in Ningzhou City have some heat, and they are afraid that they will not be able to get their clothes in advance, so they let the people wait here, hey, this day, I don't know when it will be a head." I looked at the guest officer's face, it seems that it is not the Ningzhou City people's clan, are you here to visit relatives or make a living?"

Hearing that this guy looked at himself wearing a padded jacket and thought that he was someone from other places, Qin Chuan replied angrily: "I am from Qingzhou City, and I came here to go to my relatives' house, but I didn't expect that I didn't bring summer clothes, so I could only buy a few pieces and send them away." It's just that I'm shy, and I really can't come up with much money, if you don't dislike it, show me your summer clothes, as long as the size is right, there is nothing to pick. ”

Since Qin Chuan is so upright, this guy has some surprises, this is a specially tailored place in Ningzhou City, and many dignitaries and nobles are here. It's just that after the business has become bigger, the store doesn't care, and it doesn't even have a signboard, but the store's golden threshold makes people talk about it, and people always use the golden threshold to replace the store's signboard. Everyone in Ningzhou City knows that the price of the gold threshold is not low, but this job is to make it beautiful, the embroidery needle can be worn to sew clothes with hair, if you are lucky enough to meet those old craftsmen, you can cut a dress with your eyes closed. There are also some tailors with vicious eyes, who don't need to measure their bodies to know what size the guests are, and no one says that the size of the clothes made according to his experience is wrong. However, this price did prevent some people from coming, but Qin Chuan didn't seem to know anything about here, although he was a little ignorant, but it was not annoying.

This guy didn't look down on Qin Chuan, looking at his dress, he didn't seem to be a rich person, and kindly reminded: "Our place has been open for decades, but the fathers and villagers of Ningzhou City give face, often take care of our business, and let us have a bite to eat." There are dozens of mouths to keep in this store, so the price is also a little more expensive than other places. If you find it difficult, you can go to the tailor's shop thirty steps ahead, where you can find the clothes you want, whether you are an ordinary scholar or a peddler. ”

Qin Chuan shook his head, for him at this moment, it is not that he lacks those people who have money, the guy in front of him is so humble or arrogant, but it makes Qin Chuan a little happy: "This little brother is okay, I am not a person who pays off the debt, you just find a tailor to come over, if you think the price is right, I will make a few clothes for me on the spot, I will make do with the other clothes first, and I will pick up the other clothes at a later date, you can rest assured, I can't treat you badly." ”

This guy was very confident when he heard Qin Chuan's words, but it didn't hurt his face, so he walked inside, and after a while, he saw a gray-haired old master squinting his eyes, glanced at Qin Chuan up and down, and then took a stack of blue cloth from the wall and said: "The young man is thin, but he has a charm that is not rigid. In the summer, when the weather is hot, you will wear this garment made of nettles, which is very cool, and in the sense of decay, it is better to make it out of this cloth. ”

Qin Chuan didn't grind, he glanced at the old man, took out fifty taels of silver from his arms, and put it directly on the counter, the previous guy looked at Qin Chuan in a daze, as if he was looking at some great character. I was still clumsy before, and I didn't expect Qin Chuan to have such a net worth, but fortunately, the master in front of him had a long face, and he was very accurate about Qin Chuan's size, and after a while, he began to trace the size with lime, ready to make it for the embroidery girl in the back.

The guy beckoned Qin Chuan to sit down, and brought some fresh melons and fruits: "This little brother, even if this embroidery girl is fast, it will take two hours, if you have other things, it is better to go shopping first, and when it is noon, you will come over to pick up things." Don't worry, I won't delay you for too long, if it's inconvenient for you, I'll send it to your house. ”

Qin Chuan waved his hand, signaling that the guy didn't need it, he had eaten too much beef noodles before, and it was a little hot in the morning, Qin Chuan felt a little sleepy, so he said, "Don't worry, you're busy." My money will help me make some fashionable clothes, as long as they are decent. The rest of the money will be rewarded to you. ”

The guy happily went down with the fruit plate, and after a while a new plate came up, and the quality was much better than the previous one. Qin Chuan looked at these fruit plates, and was a little stunned for a while, before he had no ability, he thought that there was no rank in this world, until he really came into contact with the world, and he understood that for ordinary people, there are some things, if you are born without them, then you will not have them in your life. For example, the guy in front of him looks like he is making a living in a clothing shop, but in this life, he may not have the opportunity to wear the clothes he sells. This is the way the world is, it is not to consider a person by the labor he has paid, but to consider it by power and martial arts cultivation. It may be unfair that the old men in those temples can eat their stomachs without farming, but the rules are made by them, and these poor people can only obey them.

Qin Chuan shook his head and looked at the fruit bowl in front of him, but he had no appetite. I was thinking about the future, and I felt a little dizzy, so I fell into the chair and began to sleep, and after a while, I was drooling, very sweet.

When Qin Chuan woke up, he found that the place at the door was very noisy, and when he opened his eyes and looked seriously, it turned out that Li Xiuyan from the four major families in Ningzhou had come here. In recent days, Chen Xiangyuan has not cared about any face, and has stretched his claws to the core of the Li family in Ningzhou, and the other people know that in the near future, the two families will meet each other in the white sword, so Li Xiuyan is very cautious now, as the nominal patriarch of the Li family in Ningzhou, if he is killed in the downtown of Ningzhou City, it seems that there is no other role except for being caught by one or two scapegoats above the state hall. Three years later, no one in Ningzhou City will remember him, so Li Xiuyan can't count on the temple, so he can only rely on himself.

Li Xiuyan strode in, and for a while he felt that Qin Chuan was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it, so he simply didn't think about these things. It is the anniversary of the Li family in Ningzhou soon, and we have to hurry up to get a few clothes that fit, but when the time comes, we can't let other families laugh at it, saying that the Li family in Ningzhou can't afford the clothes now.

Originally, according to Li Xiuyan's temperament, he would definitely not care about these gossips, but the rest of the family was very mindful, rather than this, it was better to break the wealth and eliminate the disaster, and buy some clothes for the men, women and children between the family, so that on the day of the clan celebration, it would also look very spiritual, so as not to be said behind the back by those who worked hard and did not have the bearing of the patriarch.

Li Xiuyan was waiting for his clothes, he began to sit and drink tea, this place is not big, but things are really exquisite, this tea is a leaf and a tea at a glance, this new tea at the Qingming Dynasty is more fragrant than the old tea, and there is some coolness in it, among the four major families in Ningzhou City, only Li Xiuyan likes this new tea, and several other people like the old tea, and want to highlight the difference. However, it can also be seen that this clothing shop is a little careful, and even Li Xiuyan can remember clearly what kind of tea he likes, which is really not simple.

While Li Xiuyan was sitting, Zhang Wuli said beside him: "Someone came with news today, saying that the second master Li Nianguang went to Chen Xiangyuan's side again, but he only came back from drinking flower wine two days ago, and he couldn't stay for a few days, why did he go again? ”

Li Nianguang, the second master of the Li family in Ningzhou, has always been a gentleman, thinking that he is the next patriarch, how do he know that the old lady Li directly gave the position to Li Xiuyan, since the power is hopeless, there is a good life to enjoy. How do you know that Chen Xiangyuan used this layer to make a crazy transfer in front of him, and in less than half a month, the second master Li Nianguang became a slave with a different surname, and the Li family's property in Ningzhou was completely ruined, if it wasn't for Li Xiuyan to stop it, I'm afraid this ancestral house would be sold by him.

Li Xiuyan glared at Zhang Wuli, as if he was blaming him for talking about the family in front of outsiders, if it was heard by someone with a heart, it would be terrible.

Zhang Wuli knew what Li Xiuyan meant, coughed awkwardly, and then stopped talking and lowered his head.

At this moment, the guy from the store walked towards Qin Chuan with a stack of clothes, and said very happily: "This little brother, I've kept you waiting for a long time." Five embroiderers do it at the same time, the clothes must be suitable, if you don't dislike it, you can try it now. ”

Qin Chuan waved his hand: "No, it's almost noon, I have to try the restaurant in Ningzhou City." After Qin Chuan said that, he walked towards the outside of the house, and after a while, he disappeared into the crowd.

Looking at Qin Chuan's figure, Zhang Wuli shook his body, as if he was shivering, and after thinking for a long time, he said: "Childe, the voice of the young man from before seems to be very familiar, where should we have heard it?"

Li Xiuyan also had some doubts: "Yes, I just can't think of it." ”。

Zhang Wuli said with some seriousness: "Guan Shankou ......"

After Li Xiuyan heard this, he said with some surprise: "What? Could it really be him?" After saying that, he left this place with his entourage, and the guy who was holding the clothes of the Li family in Ningzhou was holding the clothes of the Li family in Ningzhou, but he couldn't see any people from the Li family, and he felt a little stunned for a while.
