Chapter 336: Chicken, Duck, and Fish
The courtyard door was suddenly kicked open with a bang, and several yacha rushed in, holding steel knives in their hands, murderous, and frightened the butcher Sun Shifu, they stood there and did not dare to move, they also thought that these yacha had heard some letter, and wanted to come to his house to get the thief, at this time, if they dared to move, they would be punished in vain.
However, they were amazed to see that these tolerances were not for men, but for pigs. A yacha rushed up, raised the knife in his hand, and with two "clicks", he cut the rope that tied the pig, and the fat pig fell to the ground, snorted a few times, and fled.
Butcher Sun was stunned and said, "Fathers, what are you ......?"
A catcher walked over slowly, looked at a few fatty pork fans hanging under the porch, and said loudly: "The saint has a decree that from now on, you must not kill." Butcher Sun, you put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the ground. ”
"Smack!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he was slapped on the back of the head, and a small leader glared at him, and said to the butcher Sun: "The saint is the reincarnation of Maitreya, who is merciful, and has made a holy decree." From now on, it is forbidden for people in the world to fish, hunt and slaughter, kill all innocent creatures in vain, and Ming'er will not even be allowed to sell meat, you can't do this job. Cough! Under this corridor is a pig that has been killed, then there is no way, I want the half of the fan on the left, it's cheaper, you can't sell it today, you won't have a chance tomorrow. ”
Butcher Sun stood there with a blank expression, not hearing the words of this fast catcher at all, his grandfather was a pig killer. His father also killed pigs, he has killed pigs all his life, he has learned such a craft in his life, and now the queen does not let him kill pigs. How will he live in the future?
"You Qi Zhenhuai, who killed tens of millions, you don't have an asshole when you give birth to a son, get out of my house!"
Grandma Liu, who lives in the second alley of the east of Jishan Fang, is quickly chasing after a few fangdings. While chasing and cursing, in a hurry she forgot to put down the egg she had just picked up, the egg was from the old hen, and it was still warm, and the old hen was chased by a few fangsmen, spreading her wings and fluttering all over the yard, fluttering dust.
Qin Fang was watched by Grandma Liu and grew up. I was scolded by the old man for a few words, but I didn't dare to talk back. Just stood there with his head shrunken. A look of amazement.
"Qin Fangzheng, this is yours!"
Grandma Liu's son Du Tianwei is the second shopkeeper in the Qi family's silk shop, and he is well-informed. Suddenly hearing the "bad news" but not panicking, he said to Qin Fangzheng: "Who said that our family raised this old hen to kill and eat, we are to eat eggs, this is not guilty, right?" Again, this is not killing. ”
A fang ding helped Qin Fangzheng: "Third brother." Who believes you? It's laying eggs now, it's laying eggs, of course you don't want to kill it, but what if it doesn't lay eggs? You killed it secretly, and we don't know it, it's against the holy decree. ”
"How so?" Du Tianwei smiled and said, "It's a big deal...... You are like the government controlling the farming cattle, you are registered, and I have a few hens at home, and you all record them. If you kill one without permission, you will be caught in a prison and eaten on the board, won't that be it? ”
Several of the people were very moved. They also have chickens at home, and they have already told the family to slaughter them in advance, so as not to release them in vain, but if the chickens are also protected as ploughing cattle, we only eat eggs and don't kill chickens, then it will be done, right?
Qin Fangzheng, who had just been scolded for being scolded, snorted unhappily and said, "Fart!" Aren't eggs meaty? Aren't eggs creatures? Where did the chicks hatch from? ”
Du Tianwei said: "Eggs have no skin, no hair, no meat, no bones, no blood, how can they be considered meat, if you have the ability, you can pick a bone from the egg and let me see!" ”
Qi Zhenhuai still wanted to keep his position as Fangzheng, but he didn't want to ruin his and his son's future because of an old hen, so he immediately said: "Eggs can hatch chicks, which means that eggs are also living beings." If it is not a living being, how can life be born? Therefore, if you want to raise hens to lay eggs, you can't eat them. ”
At Grandma Liu's house, Qin Fangzheng and Du Erste started a heated debate with philosophical significance on whether eggs belong to meat or vegetarian.
South City, East Market and more than 100 large and small vegetable shops have increased in price, the price of vegetables has doubled in an hour, countless people rushed to the door before the tolerance of Wuhou and Fang Zheng, desperately slaughtering the chickens and ducks at home, the whole scene is more lively than the New Year.
Crying, scolding, and at a loss, Lin'an City is full of hustle and bustle. At this time, in addition to those who sell vegetables, their eyebrows are dancing and desperately raising prices, maybe only one big shopkeeper who sells livestock feels happy.
The shopkeeper is a wholesale pig, sheep, chicken and duck, yesterday received the news sent by the sister who is now the concubine of An Lehou, he began to sell at a sharp price early this morning, and also found a name for this kind of move, which is called "The old mother's birthday, so the price is reduced to benefit the people!" ”
Several other large meat wholesalers laughed at him for going crazy, what is happening now? Hahaha! As soon as the wholesale meat vendors who came this morning heard that he was selling at a reduced price, they all came to their houses to buy the goods, and while praising him for his filial piety, they took advantage of him as much as possible.
The weather is still cold, and he is not afraid that the meat will be spoiled at home, and several other large wholesalers just look at him coldly, but now it is good, those few people can't cry. The market is only open in the afternoon, the vendors of each square come to buy in the morning, go to sell goods in the afternoon, they are too late to buy now, a few large wholesale households that Roshan only rely on a few nearby families to buy, how much can be sold?
The shopkeeper smiled happily, looked back at the pork and mutton left in the warehouse that had not had time to sell, and smiled with tears on his face: "As the Son of Heaven, how can you be so ridiculous, you yourself believe in some gods, Buddhas and ghosts, and you are willing to change the year name for this occasion, you have to scavenge my family's iron and bronze for the sake of Jiantianshu, and I have endured it, and now I don't even let me sell the meat, I am also a big family!" ”
A similar situation is being staged throughout Lin'an City, with the horse's hooves galloping all the way to the post guards who are carrying the burden of yellow cloth and carrying a small pennant on their backs, and are hurrying to deliver the decree all the way, a similar situation will soon spread to the whole world like a plague, and an absurd drama is being staged in the world.
After running to the river to ask Yao'er, who was passing by, learned the truth. I don't care about fighting for those fishermen. This is a holy decree, and she is not qualified to dress unevenly, Yao'er rushed to Nanshi with a flick of the horse. She was going to rush to buy some chickens, ducks, eggs, poultry, pork, and dog meat to go home......
The most popular thing in Nanshi today is the stall selling meat.
Although most of the people who went to the market to grab meat and buy meat were ordinary people, there were many prophets among them. There are always housekeepers, maids and servants in the powerful family, some of these people are very favored by the master's side, and they all have three relatives and six reasons, so as soon as the master's family gets the news, they will immediately get the news.
Therefore, these families were the first to grab the market. Just waiting for the market to open. Therefore, as soon as the northern, western, and southern markets opened, a large number of people flocked in. Many people who do business are surprised to find that most of the people who rush into the market go to the butcher shops.
Soon, the people who realized it later also rushed into the market, and then after. Those who had never heard the wind had heard it. After hearing the news of the customers who had bought all kinds of meat and left in a hurry, the customers who had just gone to buy other things in the market also left everything and joined the rush to buy meat.
There were originally few people at the door of the shops selling gold and silver jewelry, jewelry and jade, and at this moment there were even more people. The vendors selling snacks stared at the customers who were frantically grabbing meat and eggs, and then looked down at the delicious food they had cooked, wondering why they had abandoned this good food and went to grab some raw meat and live duck.
The Qin people from the Western Regions had a white cloth on their shoulders, and at first they boasted about how his cloth was. At this time, he was already listlessly leaning against the door frame, and his big blue eyes were spinning around. I wondered if the people of Datang should drive the sheep over next time since they love meat so much, obviously this meat is better than cloth.
The market has been robbed, as long as there is a meat word, the stall is crowded with black heads, as if they don't want money to buy home. Selling live chickens, live ducks, dogs, and goats, because they are living creatures, so the goods are not too much to prepare, Rao is so, in fact, they can't be sold in a day on weekdays, because the wealth of the people in the world is far from reaching the point where they have meat to eat every day.
The rest was the shop that sold slaughtered meat, and the meat seller was so busy that he only carried a sharp ox ear knife to cut and tie the meat, and without raising his head or opening his eyes, the money basket was thrown next to the meat case. Let the guests throw their money in. I don't even bother to count.
Some of the people who were squeezing behind on tiptoe saw that there was less and less meat on the board, and they were so anxious that they simply shouted: "I paid!" He threw the money in his hand into the basket, and then pulled his neck and shouted, "I'm done paying!" I'm done paying! Hurry up and cut the meat for me! ”
The meat seller stood behind the man with his hands in his hands. Watching this hot business scene indifferently, listening to the jingling sound in the money basket, and looking at the stacks of copper coins, there was no joy on his face.
It's a one-shot deal! It's sold out today, so what business will you do tomorrow? No matter how much you earn on this day. I can't support my family for the rest of my life.
Seeing that the sky has been dyed with a trace of twilight, it is too late to go to the meat store to batch the meat and come back, and the store can't spare people to buy the goods, and a few guys are busy around, how can there be idlers to buy the goods.
No, even half of his son stepped forward to help, and the boy desperately carried the board that was crowded by the crowd and kept retreating to his side, while shouting with his male duck that was changing his voice: "Don't squeeze! Don't squeeze it! If the board is overturned, my family will stop selling meat! ”
The shopkeeper smiled miserably, and secretly said in his heart: "Yes! From tomorrow, you really can't sell meat! ”
Yao'er was dumbfounded as soon as she arrived at the scene, she never expected that the business on the meat stall would be so hot, ordinary people rarely buy some meat on weekdays, although they want to eat meat during the New Year's holidays, they are not willing to spend so much, but this time is different. If you don't buy it now, you'll never be able to eat meat, and everyone is going crazy.
Yao'er rode on the horse and was stunned for a long time. Then he woke up like a dream and tied his horse to the side of the road, and pounced on him.
A sea of people!
Yao'er is full of martial arts, and in the surging crowd, his feet are not touching the ground, like a piece of dead wood in the tide, floating around. All of them used his elbows, shoulders, hips, waist, hips, everything that could be used to arch, bump, rub, twist, and struggle forward.
"It's not going to go on like this."
Yao'er was a little shy at first, embarrassed to compete with others like this, but thought that it was white rice with dried vegetables every day......
It's so sad.
……
Yao'er carried the sack out of the butcher's shop, and before she put the sack on the horse's back, she saw two familiar people walking towards her in the distance, both of them were disheveled and embarrassed, and they both bowed their heads, looking dejected.
"Brother Tiannuo, Brother Yu!"
Yao'er immediately shouted, Tiannuo and Yu Qimeng looked up and saw that it was him, and immediately ran over happily, Tiannuo said happily: "Yao'er, why are you here?" ”
Yao'er said, "Why did you two get into the city?" ”
Both sides rushed to ask, and Yu Qi said, "Hi! Didn't I hear a message from my family, so I hurriedly took leave and rushed back, but I didn't expect that as soon as I entered the city, I heard that the imperial court had issued a 'ban on slaughter', so I didn't even return home, so I ran to Nanshi to buy meat, but it turned out to be a step too late. ”
Yao'er was taken aback and quickly asked, "What happened to your family?" ”
As soon as Yu Qi heard him ask about this, he opened his eyebrows and smiled, and said with a smile: "Naturally, it's a big happy event, haha, Xiaozhuo is pregnant." ”
"Really?"
Yao'er was surprised and delighted, and hurriedly bowed her hand and said, "Haha, congratulations, Brother Yu is a father." ”
Yu Qi waved his hand and deliberately made a disapproving appearance, but the mouth that was about to reach the root of his ears couldn't hide it: "Wait until my son is born......"
Yao'er smiled: "How can you be sure that the first child must be a son?" Maybe I'll give birth to a girl. It's good to have a girl, if you look as beautiful as Sister Xiaozhuo, you will marry a good family in the future, if you look like you......"
Yu Qi glared and said, "What?" ”
Yao'er sighed and said, "Then I will reluctantly accept her as a goddaughter, and help her prepare a dowry in the future." “”
Yu Qi smacked him and said, "Bah, bah! If I give birth to a daughter, I will be as beautiful as her mother. ”
The three of them laughed a few words, and Yao'er asked again: "Brother Tiannuo, you are in Jinwuwei, Brother Yu is in Longwuwei, these two guards are stationed in this Lin'an City, one east and one west, separated by a distance, how did you come together?" ”
When Tiannuo heard this, his old face turned red, and he faintly felt a little embarrassed, and Yao'er couldn't help but be surprised when he saw it. (To be continued......)
