Chapter Seventy-Six: Jin Beiwang

The man who was called the proprietor was about twenty-five or sixteen years old, with deep facial features, slightly dark skin, and very masculine and handsome sword eyebrows. The addition is burly, if it weren't for the fact that he was wearing a stone blue robe and a hosta, adding three points of elegance, it would be very easy for people to mistake him for a warrior or a ranger.

Xu is side heard a few words in the back, he pointed to the back door with an extremely cold face and motioned for the young man to get out, and then bowed down to apologize to Dong Ping and the three of them, "The subordinates are rude, and they have ruined the interest of your distinguished guests, I really can't help it." It's not as good as this, the customer chooses a basket of fruit at will to count my store as compensation, okay? ”

Dong Ping is not an unforgiving character, but now he is out of the house, so he will naturally accept it when he sees it. He also smiled back, "Jin Dongjia is polite, and we are also in a momentary mood." Since both parties are at fault, how can there be any reason to accept compensation? ”

Jin Dongjia smiled more and more sincerely, and asked, "I heard Gongzi's words be elegant, but he is famous?" ”

Dong Ping subconsciously straightened his chest and responded, "Jin Dongjia has good eyesight, I just got the qualification of being a student half a month ago. ”

"Oops, it turned out to be a talented man, disrespectful and disrespectful." Jin Dongjia gave a gift again, and became more and more enthusiastic, "The son doesn't know, Jin has been fond of poetry and books since he was a child, but unfortunately the family has been operating fruit for many years, but I am not allowed to leave my family business to make a name for myself." I didn't expect to be lucky enough to meet Childe today, which is really a blessing. If the son doesn't dislike it, why don't you go to the backyard and have a cup of tea? ”

Dong Ping and Steward Zhang glanced at each other, both of them were a little moved. The two of them came to see how Kyoto's largest fruit store was trading, so that they could seek cooperation after Seiju. I didn't expect to quarrel with the young guy but lead to the owner, which has to be said to be very lucky.

Dong Ping gave up his hand again and gladly accepted the invitation of the Jin Dongjia, "Then it will disturb the Jin Dongjia." ”

The two laughed and lifted the curtain and entered the backyard, Xizi naturally had a young man invite him to the side hall to eat fruit and snacks, leaving Steward Zhang to wait behind Dong Ping and smile silently. Seeing this, Jin Dongjia also understood that he was Dong Ping's confidant, so he opened his mouth and invited him to sit in the last seat.

Soon, the beautiful and polite maid came up with tea and various snacks. Jin Dongjia waved his hand and ordered, "Open three coconuts and send them!" ”

Although Dong Ping had never eaten coconut, he guessed that the price of this thing would not be cheap if it was shipped from the extreme south. So he excused himself, "Jin Dongjia is polite, let's just have a cup of weak tea." ”

Jin Dongjia shook his head and refused, and asked with a smile, "I don't know the name of Gongzi, I heard Gongzi come from Qingxian before, it was a cold place." ”

"Jin Dongjia is polite, my surname is Dong, and the word is Juncheng. Jin Dongjia is older, just call me Juncheng directly. ”

"Then I'll make a big noise and call you Brother Dong Xian. My family's surname is Jin, and the word is looking north. If you don't dislike it, call me Brother Jin. ”

Dong Ping originally had three points of vigilance in his heart, but seeing that this Jin Dong didn't smile or speak, and he was bold, so this "Brother Jin" was willing.

The two gossiped a few more words, and the maid walked in with three peeled coconuts. Dong Ping remembered what his sister had said about eating, so after Jin Beiwang raised his hand, he picked up the wheat tube in the tray and inserted it into the coconut and directly sucked two mouthfuls of coconut water, and finally praised, "This coconut water is really delicious, the same color as milk, but sweeter than cow milk, and it doesn't have the slightest fishy smell." ”

A flash of surprise flashed in Jin Beiwang's eyes, and he asked with a smile, "Don't hide it from Brother Dong Xian, although my family has been dealing in fruits for generations, this coconut has only been transported back from the extreme south this year." I don't know where the virtuous brother saw this thing, otherwise how could he be so familiar with how to eat? ”

Dong Ping went out for the first time, and he had less experience, so he naturally responded when he heard this, "I also heard my sister talk about it..."

Steward Zhang didn't know whether his hand slipped or he was thinking about things out of his mind, and he actually let go of his hand and dropped the coconut. He hurriedly bent down to pick it up, smiled and apologized, "I'm really sorry, this coconut is so delicious, it's a shame in surprise." ”

Jin Beiwang smiled and waved his hand, "There are many of these things in the extreme south, and they are the same as the fruits we have here." If the steward likes it, bring two when you go back. ”

Dong Ping also felt that it was not good to say much about his sister, so he asked interesting things about the extreme south with these words. Jin Beiwang is really a dutiful businessman, and the entire Daqi has walked from south to north, and when he talks about the interesting things he has encountered and the strange customs of various places, he is even more gushing. Dong Ping was envious when he heard it, and he hated to go through it in person.

The more the two talked, the more they agreed, and it was not until night fell that they stopped talking. Jin Beiwang still wanted to leave Dong Ping and a few people to eat, Dong Ping thought about meeting for the first time, so he forcibly said goodbye and left. Xizi was so hungry that she lay on the side of the door countless times to look around, and when she saw this, she hurriedly followed behind and waited.

Jin Beiwang couldn't keep Dong Ping, and finally called the guy to pick up a basket of fresh fruits and stuff them for Xizi, and asked Dong Ping to travel to Kyoto tomorrow. Dong Ping responded happily, and the two said goodbye.

Seeing that Dong Ping and the three of them turned around the corner and disappeared, the middle-aged steward who was directing the young men to get off the door came over, bowed down and asked in a low voice, "Young master, do you want Wu Enqi and them to find out the details of these three people?" ”

Jin Beiwang casually turned the wolf head bronze ring on his finger, shook his head and said, "No need, these people have no malicious intentions." ”

The curiosity in the steward's eyes was even stronger, and he couldn't help but ask, "Why did the young master spend half a day..."

"Immortal Heaven is above, although this king is the first time to see these people, but in the dark he feels that he will have a lot to do with them in the future." Jin Beiwang narrowed his eyes slightly, obviously also confused by his mysterious and mysterious premonition.

The steward frowned, thought about it and said, "Only that Bailu Academy in Qingxian County is not bad, does the young master want to send Young Master Gardi to study?" ”

Jin Beiwang shook his head, "No, Father Khan likes him to be smart, and he will probably not agree to him coming to Daqi." Let's go back to the prairie in the winter. ”

"Yes, young master." The steward bowed his head and retreated, leaving Jin Beiwang with a slight hook on the corner of his mouth, and sighed in a low voice, "It's the same as when I first came out of the grassland, a kind and innocent lamb." ”

Dong Ping and Steward Zhang were also talking about the overly enthusiastic Jin Dongjia while walking, but the two discussed for a long time and felt that he had no malicious intentions, so they decided to try dating for a few days. If this person is really as generous and bold as he is today, it would be good to cooperate with him to sell the remaining two sets of fruits when the time comes.

Xizi hugged her gurgling belly and secretly leaned next to her master, causing Dong Ping to knock on his head with a smile. Fortunately, there was no shortage of food in the white shopkeeper's shop, and as soon as the three of them entered the inn and said that they hadn't eaten dinner, a young man brought up half a clay pot of japonica rice and four side dishes. After eating and drinking, Steward Zhang excused himself to pay some money in advance, and after seeing Dong Ping's master and servant go upstairs, he went directly to the backyard to catch the white shopkeeper, and talked carefully about what he saw today.

The white shopkeeper pondered for a long time before saying, "I haven't heard anything strange about Xiangmanyuan on weekdays, and the Jin family has lived in Kyoto for three generations. The proprietor is said to have been traveling all over the world before, and only returned three years ago to take over the business, and he is generous and bold, and has a wide range of contacts, and has a great reputation among the merchants. ”

Steward Zhang was a little relieved, but he still instructed, "The master treats the Dong family sisters and brothers very seriously, if the business goes wrong this time, I'm afraid we will all have to eat and scrape." Brother Bai should send someone to investigate carefully, it's better to have nothing to do, and you can deal with it as soon as possible. ”

The white shopkeeper nodded, and said with a smile, "You old fox, good things don't see anyone, and bad things will pull me away." ”

Steward Zhang laughed dryly twice, and responded, "When you go to Qingxian, I beg my wife to cook two good dishes for you personally, and keep you so fragrant that you swallow your tongue." ”

"Is it really that delicious? Better than this big restaurant in Kyoto? "The white shopkeeper is very skeptical.

Steward Zhang didn't answer, but only raised his chin extremely high, which made the white shopkeeper even more itchy.

On the second day, Dong Ping and the three of them had breakfast and went to Xiangmanyuan as promised, Jin Beiwang waited in the lobby early, and saw the three of them smiling and welcoming them out in the curious eyes of many guests.

Jin Beiwang is worthy of sitting on the ground, but all the fun and delicious places in Kyoto know clearly. From morning to night, everyone listened to the famous Song Qinglian's Beijing opera, visited the lively Tianqiao Market, ate the beef offal soup in the deep alleys, and boated on the Hua'er River with the Oiran, which was simply a pleasure in the world.

Xizi was so happy that her mouth never closed, even Steward Zhang poured a stomach full of good wine and smoked her face ruddy, and hummed a little tune non-stop. Dong Ping was even more confused by Jin Beiwang's chic generosity, and was glad that he was lucky to make such a friend, and secretly decided to sell the fruit in Xiangmanyuan after the birthday banquet.

And Jin Beiwang got along with Dong Ping for a day, but he became more and more curious about the origin of several people. Originally, they came from a small county town in the north, and the family was not very rich, but when eating and drinking, they seemed to be extremely picky, and the time-honored beef grocery restaurant in Kyoto had been praised by many gluttonous diners, but the little scholar shook his head while eating and said that it was not as delicious as the meatball soup stewed by his wife, not to mention braised pork and boiled fish.

and the little song sung by the Song family was also disliked, and the little scholar said that it was not as good as the song that her wife hummed casually when cooking. And although Xiao Xiucai and the steward stopped the little scholar from talking more, their expressions did not have the slightest intention of refuting, which made him even more suspicious of what kind of person the mysterious lady was. Is it true that a woman has traveled all over the north and south of Daqi like him?

The days quickly slipped away in Dong Ping and Jin Beiwang's companionship, and the 50th birthday of the current emperor finally arrived. There was no curfew on this night in Kyoto, and when the sun had just set in the western mountains, an endless stream of horse-drawn carriages set off from various markets and gathered on Suzaku Street.

Many people brought their female dependents, laughing and singing warblers along the way, faintly floating in the fragrance, which provoked the people who deliberately wore new clothes to go out to see the excitement stretched their necks, trying to take a look at the curtains when the evening breeze blew.

Grocery sellers and snack vendors have taken on their burdens, occupied street corners, and wandered among the crowds, shouting loudly, making the whole of Kyoto more lively. (Seven days after the birth of his son, his husband went out, and now his son is seven months old, he only comes back once, and he can stay for seven days.) So, friends, these seven days are allowed to bloom in a single change, okay? I forgot what my husband looked like, haha, when my husband goes out again, I must try to update more. Thank you for your support! )
