"Oh, I see, the author who can write such thought-provoking words must also be a man of great wisdom. ”

"Hmm...... Sort of. ”

"Rhubarb, look at your relieved appearance, this debt is about to be paid off?"

"Well, to clear it, he gave me a thousand gold. ”

"Ouch, it seems that the festival between the two of you is not small, but that Ling family son was able to cut his arm with a dagger and bleed on the spot...... It's also a guy with guts. Shang Li looked thoughtfully at the convoy not far away and the dense crowd of diners.

"Since your debt is about to be finished, isn't it time to pay my debt too?" Shang Li said playfully.

"Uh...... What does Miss Shang mean?"

"Our business just lacks a diner now, and the requirements are not too high, as long as we have the strength of a heavy lock. ”

"Is it the kind of diner who can tell stories?" Ji Qing smiled.

"Hehehehe, how is it? Are you interested?" Shang Li held out his hand.

"Let's try it first. Ji Qing held her soft and agreed to her.

The green clothes on the side were still slumped on the ground at the moment, trembling, Ji Qing was puzzled, so she asked, "By the way, what is the reaction of the green sister now, can't it be sick?"

"I'll tell you the truth, she in green clothes has a little problem, every time she tells a lie in front of people, she will blame herself and be ashamed, trembling all over, and she will be fine when she recovers. ”

“......”

Qin State, Yongcheng boundary.

In fact, before Shang Yang built Xianyang Palace, the Qin State was set in Yongcheng, which was recorded in the history books as the ancient city of "the city moat river", Yongcheng was also used as the political and military center of the Qin State hundreds of years ago and was brilliant, even if the Qin State is now the capital of Xianyang City, the prosperity of Yongcheng has not diminished.

Time flies, and before you know it, seven days have passed.

Ji Qing did not immediately become a diner after coming to the Shang Mansion, according to other diners, this is to choose a suitable time and day to officially hold the "corporal ceremony", after this procedure, the status of the diner can be officially confirmed.

Ji Qing lived in the Shang Mansion with peace of mind with the attitude of "once you come, you will be safe", of course, soon his reputation for telling stories spread, in other words, Ling Hao also stuffed the Dream of Red Mansions to him that day, and now it is in his baggage......

"Are you the old lady's master? I saw a flash of white light, and a majestic and rugged girl in military uniform appeared in front of the young king coyote, this woman is the famous Li Yunlong, who is good at fists and kicks, and the best one is: the ruthless and ruthless cannon boxing method of destroying the city!"

"Why did Li Yunlong say and scold him to death as soon as he appeared?"

"Rhubarb, the story of Jia Baoyu vs. Zhu Bajie last time hasn't been finished yet, did Tongling Baoyu break or blow up after touching the nine-tooth nail rake?"

"Could it be that there are also martial arts scholars overseas?"

"Don't make any noise, listen to Rhubarb continue. ”

How many times have you said it, don't call me rhubarb...... Ji Qing sighed helplessly.

This world is highly hierarchical, and he is a newcomer who can't even prove his legal identity, to put it simply, it is a black household, which is inferior to slaves and commoners, if slaves and commoners are killed, the murderer will have to compensate a few cows to others, if his black household is killed, it will be impossible to catch anything, so Ji Qing agreed to Shang Li's invitation, and if there is a reasonable identity of a diner, he can be regarded as a "Qin person", which is better than a black household who lets people die outside.

"Ahem!" a cough sounded, and when everyone looked back, the Steward suddenly appeared.

This Wei Steward's real name is Wei Baiqi, he is the steward of the Shang Mansion, and now he has the strength of the five layers of the ground lock, and he is a master of the Shang Mansion by learning the "Soldier Body Dao" with one hand, and he is considered the No. 1 master in the Shang Mansion.

Everyone suddenly regretted that they hadn't heard enough of this story, and they had to go to work again.

"By the way, Rhubarb, I'll have good news for you, tomorrow you will be able to participate in the [Corporal's Gift]. Wei Baiqi looked at Ji Qing.

"Really, that's great!" Ji Qing suddenly burst into cheers.

During the Warring States Period, the style of raising a soldier prevailed, the so-called "corporal's gift", to put it bluntly, is an important procedure for the nobles to recruit and accept diners, but do not underestimate such a procedure, after completion, everything of the diners will be linked to the nobles' family, if the diner dies for the sake of loyalty and righteousness for the main family, the main family is also to settle the family of the diner, and by the way, give the diner a beautiful funeral.

On the other hand, if a diner betrays his lord's family and throws himself to other nobles, he is a street rat that everyone shouts and beats, so unless there is a great force to protect him, no one usually takes this risk to betray his lord's family.

Generally speaking, this kind of ceremony should be handed over to the head of the family or the concubine of the noble family to preside, but the head of the merchant family is not at home during this time, so Shang Li, as the daughter of the merchant, presides over the procedure of recruiting Ji Qing as a diner.

"The emperor is above, the earth is below, and now the daughter of the Shang family is in charge of the seal letter on behalf of her father...... Knowing people and getting people, benevolent and corporal, regardless of high and low, one and others, there are concubines Ji Qing, Ren Xia is arrogant, and the genius of Tianzhong is ......"

Ji Qing's face was solemn, of course, this was because he found that the other people present were very serious, and he had to put on a solemn and serious expression, but this kind of collective kneeling occasion still made him very unaccustomed to it......

When he is free, he will go to Ling's house to borrow a set of tables, chairs and benches and come back, I believe that Ling Hao, as a modern person, will definitely not be used to this kneeling and sitting style.

"Here, please invite Ji Jun, enter my Shang Mansion, forge ahead, and worry about food!" Shang Li performed a fairly standard corporal salute at this moment, which is to show the demeanor of the noble "Corporal Lixian".

"Eh, what did Miss Shang say just now?" Ji Qing suddenly reacted that he had been named.

"Rhubarb, Miss is asking if you would like to be a diner in the Shang Mansion?" Wei Baiqi on the side whispered to him.

"Oh, I do!

However, at this moment, the air suddenly quieted down, and the face of the green clothes darkened, and quietly reminded him: "You shouldn't say that...... I should say that......"

"I see...... Why don't we do it all over again?"

"It's okay, it's okay, since you have promised, please ask Ji Jun to come to Mengqiu and take a blood test. Shang Li said that there is no need to be too serious on this occasion, anyway, the two of them have already talked about it before.

"Come on, come on, come and let some blood!" Shang Li stretched out his little hand to beckon Ji Qing over.

The purpose of this step is to find out how talented the diners are, and in the future, arrange the status and treatment of the diners according to the level of talent.

There is also a turtle shell on the desk, in this world it is said that it is basically safe to use this thing to verify talent, it is said that the ancients used to use turtle shells for divination and fortune telling.

Ji Qing held the dagger and looked at the big turtle shell, and there was actually a little bit of nervousness.

After all, if you go on this time, your talent will be hammered...... Don't have a hard time crossing it, but arrange yourself a waste talent.

"It's just a little blood, don't be nervous. Shang Li patted Ji Qing's shoulder vigorously.

Ji Qing's hand shook, and he accidentally slashed at the artery of his wrist, and immediately a stream of blood splashed on the turtle shell......

If it weren't for Shao Haogu's perverted recovery ability, I'm afraid that another person might have died on the spot.

"Actually, a drop of blood is enough, I didn't expect you to be so heroic, rhubarb. ”

"You didn't say it earlier!" Ji Qing turned on the spit mode.

"By the way, what is this step for?"

"To test your qualifications, of course. ”

In the martial arts system of this world, there is a saying that the earth locks the sky and seals the twelve passes, the earth lock is nine, the sky seals the three levels, the ground lock can be said to be the nine chains that bind the human body, learning martial arts is to break free from these shackles, but it is impossible to do it with bare hands, only with their own qi and blood to constantly impact the ground lock, if you can turn the qi and blood into a weapon, then the qualification is the person who holds the weapon, and the quality of the qualification is not visible with the naked eye, it has to be tested through the turtle shell.

"Like Rhubarb, you have not practiced martial arts, but you can break through to the ground lock on your own, and the healing ability of the physical body is so strong, I have seen similar qualification records in ancient books before, this kind of physique seems to be called ......" Shang Li said very seriously.

Could it be that there is also a record of Shao Hao's bones in this world? Ji Qing swallowed his saliva, and his mood was nervous for no reason.

"Tai Sui's body!"

Poof! Ji Qing almost squirted out, this name ...... It's just like I'm thinking too much......

At the same time, Yongcheng Lingfu.

At this time, Ling Hao was sitting in the room with a few people, watching the cows, sheep, pigs, and chickens in the pot slowly boiling......

That's right, Ling Hao is eating hot pot.

In fact, the history of hot pot is quite long, as early as the Western Zhou Dynasty, but at that time, it was a combination of bronze tripod on top and stove on the bottom, and it was much simpler, and it was directly made of copper hot pot made of raw materials, which was sturdy and durable.

In addition to Ling Hao, there were several other people who also watched the hot pot gurgling and cooking.

The random props that have been refreshed in the past seven days are not bad, at least I don't have to worry about eating without raw materials and seasonings now, although there are no chili peppers for the time being...... But with Sichuan pepper, it also adds a little taste in front of it.

In addition, Ling Hao gradually discovered that the crops planted in this world seemed to grow twice as fast as in the later generations, and now, he could finally farm with peace of mind.

"Pour mushrooms, cabbage, tofu, and radish into it, and you can't just eat meat, but pay attention to balance. Ling Hao instructed.

"What Childe said is indeed in line with the way of reconciling yin and yang among doctors, and the old man has been taught. ”

"Childe...... Is it ready to eat?" Wang Xuanqing looked at Ling Hao with blank eyes, his hesitant appearance was like a child waiting for the adults to start moving his chopsticks when he said he was going to eat.

"Childe is waiting, Miss Wang, what are you anxious about?"

"Nan Tian, don't talk about Xuanqing, come on, drink and drink. ”

Well, Ji Qing was nervous, but Ling Hao was eating hot pot very easily, and he was enjoying it.
