Chapter 138: Mutation
Feng Fei turned his head away, and couldn't help but look at Hu Xiaoli's delicate appearance, "What do you gain from sitting for so many days?"
Hu Xiaoli sighed and said, "It's still almost hot, when Hongmang is introverted, it is the time when the first step is completed, I can't do it now, it is estimated that it will take a while,"
Feng Fei said in surprise, "Do you want to continue meditating? You are not bored, tomorrow I will go to Dongcheng Street, the most prosperous street in the capital, to open a restaurant, will you go? There are a lot of interesting things there." ”
Hu Xiaoli hurriedly shook her head like a rattle, and said loudly, "Don't tempt me! Don't tempt me! I finally made up my mind to cultivate, you can't ruin my Dao heart." ”
Feng Fei smiled, "How dare I, I'm just afraid that you will be bored if you sit like this, and I want you to go out for a walk." ”
"If you don't go, you can't practice a decent spell, I resolutely don't go out of the space!" Hu Xiaoli no longer paid attention to Feng Fei after speaking, but sat down cross-legged by herself, and the red light on her body appeared again.
Seeing Hu Xiaoli like this, Feng Fei had no choice but to shake his head and withdraw from the space.
There was nothing to say all night, and the next morning, Feng Fei, Hong Wanwan, and Ma Wu got into the carriage to the capital, while Shi Cianming stayed behind to take care of the farm.
"Brother Feng, what do you say is the name of our restaurant?" The way to the capital was far away, and Hong Million had nothing to do to chat with Feng Fei on a topic.
"As long as you don't have the word god king, you can call it anything. Feng Fei looked at the desolate scenery outside the car and said listlessly.
"Hehe, then I can get up casually," Hong Million tilted his head and thought for a while after speaking, "How about calling it a million restaurant?"
Feng Fei glanced at him, "It's too vulgar!"
"Vulgar? One million is my name for my eldest brother, 100,000 is less, 10 million is more, 10 million is just right, this is the name of the rich, my father is said to have told me so at the time. Hong Million looked indignant.
"Hehe, I can't see it, your old man is still a cultural person, by the way, why haven't I heard you mention it?" Feng Fei said.
"Hey, don't mention it, the old man has been dead for more than ten years, and my mother also followed me a few years after my father's death. Relying on the wealth and nobility of the name Hong Million, now your kid is too vulgar to hand it?"
Hong Million mentioned his parents, the sadness on his face flashed, he covered it up very well, Feng Fei has been in contact with him for so long, and he also knows a little about this person, he is a rough appearance, but he is very meticulous inside, he looks at Lele every day, and he never has any troubles, in fact, it is not that there is nothing, but he is unwilling to express it.
Feng Fei groaned slightly, looked at Hong Million and said with a smile: "Okay! Since the old man said that the name Million is a symbol of great wealth and nobility, then our restaurant is called Million Restaurant! I believe that the old man's words cannot be wrong." ”
Hong Million was stunned, he didn't expect Feng Fei to really agree, he naturally understood that the name Million had too much copper smell, and businessmen liked it, but he was spurned by the literati, he himself was just a casual joke, but he didn't expect Feng Fei to really prepare to call this name.
"No, Brother Feng, brother, I'm just talking about it casually, those scholars who use this name will dislike it, maybe there will be no literati to eat with us at that time,"
Feng Fei waved his hand to interrupt Hong Million and said, "Brother Hong, you know what kind of person I am, I like honest people, I disdain those hypocritical things the most, if they stay away because of a name that smells of copper, I don't welcome such a person, and the act of judging people by their appearance is not worthy of being a scholar,"
"But ......"
Hong Million seemed to continue to persuade, Feng Fei shook his head, "The name is so decided, don't come if you have the ability, the name is just a title, don't worry so much,"
Hong Million is also a cheerful person, seeing Feng Fei insisting, he patted his thigh and said, "Okay! His grandmother's is called Million Dollar Restaurant!" After speaking, he shouted at Ma Wu who was catching the car, "Ma Wu, you kid haven't eaten, the car is so slow, it's going to be dark when you get to the capital, hurry up for me!"
Ma Wu turned around and shouted, "Okay, you two sit tight!"
The carriage galloped all the way, and finally arrived at Feixian City at midnight, Hong Million rubbed his buttocks and said, "It's better to ride a horse in a carriage, don't say it slowly, this broken butt is about to break." ”
Feng Fei got out of the car and stretched, "It's fast, didn't you see the Ministry of Industry repairing the road on the way here, and it will be fine if the road is repaired after a while,"
Several people went into the palace to rest for a night, and came to the east city of the capital early the next morning.
Feng Fei had never been here before, and when he arrived, he found that there was also a city gate in the eastern city, and there was a wall, which could be said to be the city within the city of the capital, calling itself a gateway.
Hong Million brought Feng Fei and Ma Wu into the city, and introduced the situation in the east city as he walked, "There is no exclusive person in charge of the southeast, northwest and northwest cities of the capital, the four cities all belong to the capital and belong to the emperor, but they are a city of their own, not to mention ordinary people, even the princes and ministers have to pay the city fee when they enter the city,"
Feng Fei couldn't help but smile bitterly after hearing this, this Li Chun really wanted to do his best to enrich the treasury, the entrance fee was very cheap, and after entering, he could stay in Dongcheng without restrictions, and he could leave whenever he wanted, there was no time limit, although the entrance fee was only less than one or two silver, which was nothing to the people of the capital, but this Dongcheng was the main entertainment place in the capital, and there were a lot of people coming and going, just in the kung fu of the two of them, the city gate guards collected at least twenty personal fees, it is conceivable that Li Chun can earn a lot of money just for entering the city a day。
The three of them didn't have time to linger in the scenery of the city, but went straight to the house on Dongcheng Street, not because they were afraid of being robbed, Hong Million had already paid a deposit of one hundred taels, but Feng Fei felt that this kind of verbal agreement without signing a contract was bottomless, and all kinds of things in the ancient world that used identity to oppress people happened frequently, so it was better to settle down early, so as not to have too many dreams at night.
Not long after, the three of them came to a three-story building, the plaque in front of the door said Xianglin Gambling House, it seems that this is a casino, I don't know why it is not dry, it should not be closed for a long time, and the owner has not even removed the signboard.
Hong Million walked into the house first and shouted, "Boss Zhou, I'm here, let's sign the contract today." ”
Feng Fei and Ma Wu also walked in, there were several people sitting in front of a table in the hall on the first floor, a young man with a face like white jade, and a few servants who were five big and three thick, and next to Brother Gongzi stood an old man in his fifties, and the old man was looking at Hong Million with a bitter face at the moment.
"Brother Hong, I'm sorry, this house ......" The old man is Boss Zhou, that is, the owner of the house, looking at Hong Wan's hesitation, he seems to be embarrassed.
Hong Million saw that the situation was wrong, and glared and said, "What's the matter? Boss Zhou wants to repay the debt? I paid a deposit of one hundred taels at the beginning......
Before he finished speaking, the sitting son-in-law threw over a cloth bag, and said impatiently, "This house is for this son-in-law, this is two hundred taels, remove your deposit, this son-in-law will give you an extra hundred taels, hurry up and get out!"
