Chapter 21
A beautiful meal, the three of them were full of wine and food, and as far as the eye could see, the plates on the table were almost empty, and this meal was not only Bai Cheng, but even the egret ate a lot regardless of the reserve.
Lu Ning did not sit at the same table with the three of them, as a maid, she was obsessed with her identity and abided by the rules.
I don't know when, the noise downstairs is getting louder and louder, and when Tang Yan and her cousin and brother went downstairs, they happened to hear someone making a loud noise.
"What kind of black shop is this! It's so expensive to have a meal! It's a money grab! I won't give it to the young master, what can you do with me?! ”
"Oops! Don't ignore me! Which bastard set up this kind of rule of serving food after the money is paid, I came all the way from the Xuanjing Empire, at least you should also serve two dishes to the guests who come from afar~~! ”
The beautiful young man's timbre with the tone of the scoundrel is particularly outstanding, Tang Yan looked down, a golden and wide robe came into view, and the person wearing the robe only left her with a back, but looking at the figure, tall and straight, looking at the temperament, it doesn't look like she came to make trouble.
The guests who were eating on the first floor couldn't stand it anymore, "The people of the Xuanjing Empire are so poor?" I think you're talking nonsense, cheating and cheating, right?! ”
"That's it! Food is not a place for poor ghosts, go out without money, don't bother us to drink and eat! ”
The young man turned around and looked at the guest who was speaking with an angry expression, "Who said that the Xuanjing Empire should have money?" Am I a poor ghost of the Xuanjing Empire? ”
The Xuanjing Empire is rich in minerals, it is a rich country, and almost everyone lives in a wealthy life, which is what Tang Yan learned when he looked at the mainland atlas before.
But now, some people say that they are poor people in the Xuanjing Empire?
This statement is really not credible, and the poor can dress as eye-catching as the nouveau riche?
If I am not mistaken, his clothes are all purified, polished, and brushed gold threads, plus the gems and jade pieces inlaid on the clothes, and it is easy for him to wear them on his body, but in fact, the weight of the clothes is definitely more than twenty kilograms. And the value, converted into silver taels, is worth a million taels of silver, to say the least.
"This guest, the rules of food cannot be changed, if you want to eat, please pay the corresponding money, if you can't accept the price here, please don't interfere with the other guests' meals."
The front hall was very noisy, and the old housekeeper who often did not show up for food was also alarmed.
A steward in his forties walked out of the back hall, his face was serious, his face was wrinkled, he had a long beard, he was wearing a brown and black gown, and his body was thin, but no one dared to underestimate his existence, this was a real martial king-level powerhouse! But he did a small steward in Shiweitian, and outsiders seemed to be really condescending.
The young man who claimed to be from the Xuanjing Empire looked sideways at the old steward, slightly stunned, obviously, he saw the strength of this steward, and was surprised that he would appear in this place.
"It's not that I'm stingy and don't give money, you guys charge too much here, how can you have a dish worth a hundred taels of silver? Eating gold is not as expensive as yours! The young man's tone was angry, but his attitude was much better, probably because of the master's deterrence.
For this kind of guests who dislike the price is high, the old housekeeper used to be common, and he was not unfamiliar, his tone was calm, and his voice was faint, "Rare things are expensive, our food and wine are unique, the entire Dayan City and even the Phoenix Dragon Empire are the only one, the guests who come to our store accept such prices, if they can't accept it, there are many other restaurants in Dayan City." ”
This is an eviction order.
The young man was slightly stunned, he seemed to have never been treated like this, and he was a little unable to adapt for a while.
Tang Yan saw it in his eyes and shook his head slightly, the old housekeeper was right to do this, but he didn't know how to look at people, could a person wearing clothes of more than a million taels of silver be an ordinary person?
As soon as she turned around, she looked at Lu Ning and ordered, "Go and order a medicinal meal for that person to nourish his mind and nourish his qi and send it over." ”
Lu Ning was stunned, her own young lady has never been nosy, today is a special case, but she is a maid, and she only needs to follow the young lady's orders.
Lu Ning walked downstairs slowly, and walked to the side of the old steward of Shiweitian with a natural expression, and seeing her appearance, the face of the old steward of the martial king level changed and he was a little more cautious.
"My young lady said, order a No. 2 medicinal meal for this son." Lu Ning's voice was indifferent, and he raised his eyes and glanced at the old steward.
The old steward was surprised for a moment, and immediately almost grovelled, "Good, good." As he spoke, he looked up at the young man in the golden robe, "Is this guest going upstairs or downstairs?" ”
When did the unusually serious food steward ever be so polite to people on weekdays? His subtle changes made the onlookers almost fall through their glasses, and they wondered in their hearts what the green-clothed maid was and who her young lady was.
"Huh? Who is going to invite me to dinner? The nouveau riche young man was stunned, looked at Lu Ning and asked, "Who is your young lady?" ”
Lu Ning subconsciously looked at Tang Yan, and the nouveau riche young man happened to see Tang Yan, Bai Lu, and Bai Cheng with her gaze.
"Little girl, you are really a good person, I Jin Xuanbao appreciated it."
Tang Yan was a little surprised, there were obviously egrets and Bai Cheng beside her, but Jin Xuanbao, a nouveau riche young man, kept his eyes fixed on herself, and thanked herself, which was really a good eyesight.
She shook her head slightly, "You're welcome, there is always an inconvenience when you go out, and since you have encountered it, it is not a big deal to help." ”
Tang Yan saw that this person was very rich, and he couldn't take it out at the moment, so he must have encountered some difficulties. Just a medicinal meal can be exchanged for his favor, and this deal is very cost-effective.
Jin Xuanbao was slightly stunned when he heard this, "Huh? No, I don't have any difficulties, I just don't want to spend money, and now someone has a treat, of course, I want to express my gratitude, hehe~~"
This explanation made Tang Yan suddenly full of black lines, and she didn't want to spend money if she had money? Still playing scoundrels here? Is this the legendary Iron Rooster that doesn't pull a hair?
She suddenly regretted giving this person a medicinal meal.
But this iron rooster is also real, and even a bit like his brother's temperament, a intestine, and he has something to say.
There is no reason to take back what she has said, she ordered medicinal food for Jin Xuanbao, and now in front of everyone, if she regrets that it doesn't look good on her face, she simply doesn't pay attention to it.
"Then you can eat here, we still have something to do, let's go first." Tang Yan didn't stay any longer, just find a reason to raise her leg and leave.
Jin Xuanbao also knew each other, and beckoned with a light smile, "That little girl, you go slowly, and I will invite you to eat next time." ”
Invite her to eat?
Tang Yan didn't take this polite return to heart, the last thing she lacked was food.
Leaving Shiweitian, Tang Yan promised to take Bai Lu and Bai Cheng around Dayan City in the afternoon to familiarize themselves with the environment as soon as possible, as for where to go, but she said it.
On the busy streets, there are many pedestrians, and the sound is chaotic and noisy, because the five-year talent selection of Fenglong has attracted geniuses from all over the country to gather in Dayan City, and the streets are full of young masters at the martial arts level, which is really rare on weekdays.
The emergence of young talents has also attracted many young girls to take to the street, and they are very eye-catching.
"Cousin Egret, I'll take you to see one of the characteristics of Dayan City in a while, okay? I'm sure you'll love it. Tang Yan turned around, her expression was innocent, and she smiled lightly, so in the eyes of the two sisters and brothers who came from afar, she can be regarded as an innocent, lively, and hospitable little girl.
Anyway, it's boring to go out for a walk, and she can arrange where to go. Egret thought and nodded, "Hmm." ”
Tang Yan found that this cousin of hers was really taciturn.
"What does Cousin Bai Cheng mean?" She asked in passing.
As soon as Bai Cheng heard that he was asked, he immediately withdrew his eyes that were still looking around curiously, and had a cool face, "What is that place?" ”
Tang Yan smiled meaningfully, and deliberately bought a pass, "You'll know later." ”
Unable to ask for news, Bai Cheng was a little anxious, he looked up at his sister beside him, pursed his lips, and finally chose to be silent.
Tang Yan can see that his little cousin is trying hard to learn from his sister, and it seems that his sister is an idol-like existence in his heart.
The four of them walked all the way on the wide streets in Dayan City, turned a few corners, and then changed to a remote path.
Although Bai Lu and Bai Cheng looked as usual, Tang Yan felt that they had been taken to such a remote place by themselves, and their vigilance was increasing.
She smiled back again, "We're almost there." ”
Pushing open an ordinary house, there was no one in the courtyard, Tang Yan walked into the room, and moved a row of dilapidated bookshelves in a green and familiar manner, and a staircase deep underground appeared in the sight of the four people.
"The underground black market, one of the characteristics of Dayan City, there is everything there, only you can't think of it."
Tang Yan was still laughing, but this smile made Bai Cheng feel cold in his heart, and the innocent and lively little cousin in front of him, who was the same age as him, seemed to have suddenly changed, making his originally strange relatives even more strange.
"I think cousin and cousin you're going to love that place." Saying that, Tang Yan took the lead and walked down the stairs decisively.
Lu Ning followed closely without hesitation, leaving only the two sisters and brothers standing in place, looking at the backs of Tang Yan and Lu Ning who had disappeared in front of them, the egret lowered his head and hesitated for a moment before following.
Bai Cheng was stunned, he didn't expect his sister to walk down the stairs, the name of the underground black market sounded like it made him feel that the situation below was unusual, and even full of uncertainty and danger, but his sister's behavior was the object of his long-term imitation, and only by his sister's side would he feel safe.
Bai Cheng gritted his teeth and followed.
