Volume 1 The Little Boy Who Seeks Scholarship Chapter 112 Liangzhou City
Liangzhou, the prosperous capital city located in the south of Shiteng Kingdom, has only two words in the eyes of Ye Fan, who has little knowledge.
Boisterous.
How lively is it?
Ye Fan only felt that it was more lively than Pingxi City and Chongling Pass on the eve of the opening of the Holy Water Secret Realm combined.
The reason is very simple, as the leading Jianghu sect in Shi Tengguo, the little prince of Chiliu Villa mainly conducts martial arts competitions to recruit relatives, which is definitely a good thing for heroes and heroes in Liangzhou City and even further away.
For the other big people and ordinary people, it's a lively thing.
Ye Fan carried the little fox who was still sleeping on his back, found a relatively deep alley, and rented it for three taels of silver for a month to take care of lunch.
The landlord of the courtyard in the alley is an honest and simple man, who is a smiling face when he sees everyone on weekdays, seeing Ye Fan saying that he and his sister came to Liangzhou City alone to visit relatives, he just charged Ye Fan less than one or two silver rent, and said to them that if there is anything inconvenient, just tell him, he will help if he can, looking at the landlord's smiling face, so that the young Ye Fan is full of good feelings about the city of Liangzhou.
The boy put the little fox on the bed, covered the quilt for her, and then sat on the bench and thought for a moment, feeling that it was better to be careful, and took out a charm from his chest and put it on the waist of the little fox.
Ye Fan walked out of the alley and came to the extremely prosperous street opposite.
The hour is still early, many restaurants have not yet opened to do business, Ye Fan wandered for two quarters of an hour before finding a wine shop on the corner of a street, which was full of woodcutter workers who were going to work early in the morning, if Yu Qingqing, who had a slight cleanliness habit, was here, I was afraid that he would have to frown and pull Ye Fan away quickly.
Ye Fan stepped forward, asked for half a catty of small roast and a plate of sauced beef brewed by the store, and sat at the adjacent table of the men with the wine jug, listening to them brag and fart.
Sure enough, the most talked about is about the recent competition in Chiliu Villa to recruit relatives.
"Brothers, have you all heard of it, in fact, the pond willow villa has long been no longer surnamed Liu! This contest to recruit relatives is actually a trick of the old owner to move flowers and trees, and he wants other forces to look away!"
"But no, I also heard that the 20,000 horses stationed outside Qianfeng Ridge by the imperial court are eyeing Chiliu Villa, and ah, I heard that this competition is a gimmick, and the husband of the little princess has already been chosen!"
The people around him booed, clearly not believing.
Seeing this, the man also waved his hand, "Cut, believe it or not." ”
Ye Fan poked his head over, revealing a look of eagerness for knowledge, and smiled at the man earnestly: "Big brother, then who do you say is the husband of the little princess of Chiliu Villa?"
The man's eyes skimmed Ye Fan, his fingers tapped on the table, and said, "Oh, this voice is a little dumb, there's nothing to talk about, what's the matter...."
Ye Fan comprehended, picked up the wine jug from the table and handed it to the man, "Big brother, then you drink wine first to moisten your throat." ”
The man nodded, took the wine jug handed over by Ye Fan, and thought to himself that he was a sensible boy.
He poured a full glass of wine, then drank it in one gulp, and let out a refreshing "cool" word, and poured a full glass again
Only then did he turn his head and learn from the storyteller in the teahouse, his tone changed, and he said: "It is said that Liu Chengyuan, the current owner of Chiliu Villa, has taken over Chiliu Villa from the old owner over the years. The change suddenly happened fifteen years ago, I don't know why, the owner of Liu Chengyuan and the court suddenly had a very stiff quarrel, of course, the reason is that we outsiders don't know why, in short, since that time, Chiliu Villa and our Shi Tengguo court have been old and dead. But according to the grapevine, Chiliu Villa had a loophole that could not be added, so he had to borrow a large amount of money from the imperial court to fill the pit, and for this reason, the entire villa was paid out, and now the money is not paid, and the villa cannot be handed over, so I can only think of a separate way. ”
The man took another sip of wine and sold it.
"What's wrong with that?
There was an anxious person next to him who couldn't hold back, knocked on the table and asked anxiously.
"What's the hurry, can't you eat hot tofu in a hurry, don't you know?"
The man took another sip of wine, and then continued: "I heard that Xiangye's only son, the personable Wu Han Wu Gongzi has been in love with the little princess of Chiliu Villa for a long time, and this competition is a reason, for the sake of Chiliu Villa, Liu Siruo must marry Wu Gongzi, quasi!"
Ye Fan rubbed his chin thoughtfully.
The people around him were also extremely curious, and asked, "Zhang Dazhui, where did you get this news from? You can't deliberately brag to cheat you into drinking, right?"
The man known as Zhang Da Hammer became a little anxious as soon as he heard this, slapped the table and glared: "I'm bragging?! I've lived for decades, and I don't know how to write bragging! I have a cousin who works in Chiliu Villa, and the news is all from my cousin's mouth, can it be fake? Don't say anything else, even if you make up a story, you Li Laosan will make it up for me! You will only be here to talk about calves, your brain can make up such a story, I will walk upside down after Zhang Da Hammer!"
When Li Laosan saw this posture, he took a sip of wine, but he didn't take a stubble.
Ye Fan walked to the owner of the wine shop, asked for a few more jars of wine for the men, and left with a chuckle.
After Ye Fan visited several grocery stores, ready to buy some daily necessities, after buying, he suddenly remembered that the little fox's long skirt had been cut several times before, so he turned back halfway and bought her a brand new long skirt and boots, Ye Fan thought about it for a while, but he was not ready to buy it for himself, first, the white robe on his body could still be worn, and second, it cost seven or eight taels of silver in less than half a day, which was really distressing.
Ye Fan sighed, he didn't know that firewood and rice were expensive, and it was really expensive to go out, but he still had to spend it.
The boy suddenly remembered an old saying.
Look at the money, make money.
......
......
Back in the courtyard of the alley, it was the end of noon, Ye Fan put the bedding and clothes and other sundries he had purchased on another bed, scooped out a scoop of water from the water tank and washed his face, picked up a small bench and sat next to the little fox, thinking about the matter of Chiliu Villa that he had just inquired about.
The three orthodox countries of the Holy Water Secret Realm have been war-free for hundreds of years, the country is peaceful and the people are safe, and the army is strong and strong. Just say Shi Tengguo's words, it is even more a generation of kings who rule vertically, without notoriety or virtuous name, but it can be regarded as peaceful.
As for the other seven
Hou Guo is not so stable and peaceful, the relationship between them is complicated, sometimes hostile, sometimes allied, big battles have never been fought, but small wars are frequently reported.
On the booklet that Zhao Qingluan gave him, there were more than ten locations marked on the Tianyan Holy Water, one of which was not far from Qianfeng Ridge.
But now that there is such a thing, when to go, how to go, and in what name, it is necessary to discuss it carefully.
Also, I don't know where Yongchang Zhao Qingluan and Luzhu Zheng Chun are now, and the more than ten Tianjiao of the Seven Kingdoms will definitely not take it lightly, and it is also a trouble to find them or not.
Ye Fan sat on the small bench, wandering thousands of miles, an hour passed like this, he rubbed his legs, and prepared to go out to continue shopping.
Just when Ye Fan just got up and wanted to leave, the little fox on the bed slowly opened his eyes, and then stretched his waist widely.
How big is it?
This lazy waist stretched until Ye Fan picked up the dress from another bed and walked back to the bed, and he didn't stop.
Finally, the little fox put down his arms and said in a refreshing tone: "Ah~, this sleep is too comfortable." ”
Ye Fan didn't make a sound to disturb, just stood at the door with his arms around his chest, and looked at her with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
The little fox rubbed his swollen eyes, looked around the front, frowned as if wondering where he was, then shrugged his shoulders, and lay down directly, covering the quilt tightly on his body, and let out a pleasant sigh.
This big grinning personality is seven or eight points similar to Zhao Yongchang.
"Little fox, can't you get up when the sun is shining on your butt?"
Ye Fan stood next to him and said with a playful smile.
The little fox muttered, "It's hard to get a good night's sleep, so I can't get up." ”
After a while, she seemed to react, suddenly opened her eyes, sat up from the quilt, and turned her head to look at Ye Fan who was standing by the door, her face flushed.
Ye Fan took a few steps forward, put the dress and boots he had just bought on the side of the bed, and said with a smile: "If you want to sleep, go to sleep, change your clothes when you wake up, your one is broken several times, take it off and I'll sew it for you." ”
"Boom. ”
The little fox swallowed his saliva and said uneasily, "You.... Are you the guy in white from last night?"
Ye Fan smiled and nodded.
The little fox swallowed his saliva again, and said in disbelief: "The ancestors are here, you... You're going to make it out alive, are you?"
Ye Fan said with a smile: "I don't have such great ability, an old man named Liu Xiujie came last night, and it was he who helped me so I didn't have anything to do." ”
The little fox nodded with relief, and said as a matter of course: "It turned out to be the owner of the old Liu, let me say, you look young, how can you even beat the ancestor with great magical powers." ”
Ye Fan didn't explain anything, but asked rhetorically: "Little fox, you helped me once, it is equivalent to I owe you a favor, if you need help in the future, just come to me, and those who can help me within the scope of your ability will definitely help." ”
The little fox lowered his head and grabbed the futon with both hands, as if he had something unspeakable.
