Chapter Twenty-Three: The Economic Crisis in Seven Heroes Town

The theft of the money shopkeeper's pawnshop spread throughout the Seven Heroes Town in one day, and quickly spread outside the town. It is in response to the old saying: good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles.

At the same time, the group of Tongfu Inn finally knew what Lao Xing's killer weapon was.

It is said that Xing Zhutou spent three or four days searching all the places related to cultural relics within fifty miles, including the Qinglou, but he was stunned and did not find the jasper wrench. (Nonsense, it's still in Xiao Guo's hands)

Therefore, the largest inn within a radius of fifty miles, the Tongfu Inn, has become Lao Xing's key target. It's very simple, there are three religions and nine streams in the inn, dragons and snakes are mixed, and it is a distribution center for all kinds of news, and staring at the inn without clues can be regarded as a reasonable countermeasure.

But Lao Xing's door made the inn, which was already in depression, even worse.

Because there was no business all day, everyone in the inn had nothing to do, except for Lao Bai, who slipped out again and stepped on a little, everyone sat in the lobby and waited for the guests to come to the door.

Finally, a guest came, and before the shopkeeper could greet him, he was stopped by Lao Xing.

"Stop, what are you doing?"

The guest was a little frightened when he saw Lao Xing, after all, the natural class oppression was there.

Lao Xing caught the thief and went up and interrogated: "Where did you come from, where are you going? What is the bulging bag in your arms? Take it out and take a look!"

Seeing that the customers who came to his store were frightened, the shopkeeper hurriedly went up to relieve the siege.

"Lao Xing, people are here to eat. ”

Lao Xing glanced at the other party and interrogated again: "Why don't you go in?"

At this time, the shopkeeper also showed a kind smile, and invited the guests to come in with his right hand. But after this experience, the guest is considered well-educated if he doesn't scold his mother, so how can he still be in the mood to eat? So the man just ran away.

"Me, can't you stop eating?"

"Stop! Who allowed you to go! Stop!"

As soon as Lao Xing saw the man fleeing, he turned around and was about to chase after him, but was directly stopped by the shopkeeper who pounced on him.

"Xing Yusen!"

Lao Xing was already unhappy when he was stopped by the shopkeeper, but now he was called by a woman's name, and his face couldn't hang up, so his face was tense and his eyes were glaring: "What do you call me!"

Although the shopkeeper was also full of resentment, Lao Xing was a head catcher after all, so he had to take a step back, "Xing Da head catcher, you can leave us a way to live." ”

Seeing that the shopkeeper took the lead, the rest of the people also opened the chatterbox:

"Xing Zhutou, you have been checking and checking in the past few days, and you have interrogated people for a long time when you see them, but now no one dares to go out, and the business is not as good as day by day. ”

"Even if the business is poor, you said that the price of vegetables will also rise, and you won't let people live. ”

Xing Zhutou directly snatched the cucumber in the big mouth's hand, "You still eat when there is no food?" and then took a bite of it himself, after all, he had been interrogating people for a day, and his mouth was already dry, "Also, what does my case have to do with the increase in vegetable prices?"

As the logistics minister and purchasing staff of the inn, Dazui still has some understanding of the market.

"You listen to me explain to you, you think, in order to go out less, everyone wants to buy more vegetables and stock up, there are so many vegetables on the market, you also buy and I buy, grab and grab, then the price of vegetables will not rise." ”

At this time, Chu Nan also provided a piece of news: "I went out to shop yesterday and found that all the shops were not doing well, and many small shops could not survive and closed down directly, and some of them were desperate and ready to join the beggars." ”

Lao Xing was about to refute, but Mo Xiaobei, who was doing his homework on the side at this time, also interjected: "For this matter, our academy has suspended classes. ”

"If it's just our town, even Zuojiazhuang has been implicated, saying that we have thieves, and we don't dare to come. Those who drove the big car had no business and no food for several days. ”

"No, you..."

"Also, Zhangzhuang, Gaojiazhuang, Majiahezi, those who dig tunnels, open tea shops, sell rouge, and play tricks..."

"Enough, enough!" Lao Xing slapped the table directly, "No matter what, I'm here to handle the case, and if you want to blame that thief, I won't give up if I don't catch him for a day!"

At this moment, a panicked figure flashed outside the door of the inn, and Lao Xing rushed out directly when he saw it. The shopkeeper and Xiao Guo wanted to stop Lao Xing, but it turned out that as long as Lao Xing was determined, no one could keep him.

Hey, this should be the most boring day for Chu Nan to come to Wulin Gaiden.

。。。。。。

Time is like quicksand falling between your fingers, and in a hurry, the night is deep.

After the experience of the past few days, Xiao Guo has become suspicious of "robbing the rich and helping the poor", and when he was tired, he fell asleep groggily.

The autumn cold and dew are heavy, and even the oil lamp on the table looks unfocused.

Chu Nan came out of the room, looked at Xiao Guo lying on the table, and covered her with his coat. This is what I made at the Lady Morkin clothing store, made of red dragon skin, cold and heat, no damage to the sword, and the effect of transfiguration, in order to cope with the situation of traveling to other eras.

At this moment, Chu Nan's ears moved, and he heard a gust of wind - it was Lao Bai who was coming back.

Chu Nan poured two cups of hot tea unhurriedly, one in front of him and one on the opposite side of the long table. When Chu Nan sat back on the circle chair, Lao Bai also happened to appear at the door.

Chu Nanyi stretched out his hand and motioned for him to drink tea.

Lao Bai looked at the two cups of steaming tea at both ends of the long table, and his mood was a little complicated.

He didn't think that Chu Nan had the ability to predict the future, there was only one possibility, that is, he had been discovered when he was still some distance away from the inn. It seems that Chu Nan did not stand in the same camp with Big Mouth and Xiucai at that time, not because he was afraid of himself, but because he was not looked down upon by others at all.

"How's that, what's the catch?"

As Chu Nan's words sounded, Guo Furong, who was already sleeping very lightly, also woke up. As soon as I got up, I noticed the coat I was wearing.

Chu Nan nodded at her, Xiao Guo blushed rarely, and then returned his coat to Chu Nan with some reluctance.

The dress was so warm, and the little girl was a little stunned.

After Xiao Guo saw Lao Bai, he immediately suppressed those distracting thoughts, "Lao Bai, why did you come back?"

Lao Bai looked back and forth between Chu Nan and Xiao Guo, but was glared at by Chu Nan's calm eyes, and immediately became honest.

"Ahem, I inquired just now, Qiu Yuanwai's family has a famous painting of Wu Daozi, and if it is sold, it is at least worth this amount. ”

Lao Bai directly put his hand into Xiao Guo's sleeve and made a gesture. Although it was through the thick sleeves, Chu Nan could still detect what kind of gesture it was, but this gesture was not a gesture that we usually use to compare numbers, but it was like a code word, but unfortunately Chu Nan didn't understand.

Although he didn't know it, this scene seemed quite interesting, this kind of bidding method seems to have survived in later generations, Chu Nan vaguely remembered watching it in a certain TV show: when selling livestock, some traditional old people still use this mysterious bidding method. In this way, the price is only known to the buyer and the seller, and the success is achieved, and the third party is prevented from malicious sniping.
