Chapter 579: Meet Chen Song Again
Lu Xiaoxian caught up with the young man in three steps and two steps, stopped him and said, "This poor master, your silver bag is lost!" ”
Zhu Kuai touched his arms, and immediately understood that there was something greasy in it, and stared at Lu Xiaoxian with a frown: "You and the person who hit me just now are in the same group, right?" ”
Lu Xiaoxian smiled: "How can it? If it's a gang, can I still pay you back? ”
"I don't dare!" Catch quickly took the silver bag and asked casually, "How do you know that I am from the Yamen?" ”
"I came to Chang'an from other places, and I lived in the incense room of Ci'en Temple, and I happened to see you when you were checking the room last night!" Lu Xiaoxian explained.
"You're from outside!" Zhu Kuai nodded, patted Lu Xiaoxian's shoulder and said happily: "My name is Ji Wen, and I am on an errand in Wannian County!" If you have any trouble in Chang'an, you can come to me! ”
"Thank you Ji Catch! My name is Lu Xiaoxian, maybe I will really trouble Ji Yu Kuai in the future! Lu Xiaoxian didn't expect to get in touch with Ji Wen so easily, and he was very happy in his heart.
"Okay, I still have something to do, let's go first!"
With that, Jiwen left without looking back.
When Lu Xiaoxian looked back again, the boy was nowhere to be seen.
The East Market is close to Taiji Palace, Daming Palace and Xingqing Palace, and the surrounding squares are mostly the residences of royal nobles and dignitaries, and the commodities in the market are also mostly high-grade luxury goods, so as to meet the needs of the royal family and dignitaries.
The West Market is completely different from the East Market, and most of the surrounding areas are ordinary people's houses, and most of the goods in the market are clothing, candles, cakes, medicines, and other daily necessities. In addition, there are many shops opened by the Hu people in the West Market, such as Persian mansions, jewelry stores, warehouses, wine stores, etc. Merchants from Persia, Daesho, Goryeo, Baekje, and Silla sold the spices and medicines they brought with them in the seo market, and then bought back jewelry, silk fabrics, and porcelain to sell.
Therefore, the west market is more prosperous than the east market, and it is also called the "gold market".
Lu Xiaoxian wandered around the West Market for more than two hours before he left.
Coming out of the West Market, he was bored, and Lu Xiaoxian came to Tiantong Gambling House again.
"Shopkeeper! Here he is again! Yu Baoguan came to the shopkeeper Hu's house and whispered to him.
"Still outside?" Shopkeeper Hu asked.
Yu Baoguan nodded.
"Got it! Go ahead, don't alarm him! Shopkeeper Hu commanded.
After Yu Baoguan left, Shopkeeper Hu straightened his clothes and went out of the house.
Outside the shopkeeper Hu is the hall of the gambling house, although it is only half of the afternoon, it is already full of people and noisy.
Sure enough, Shopkeeper Hu saw Lu Xiaoxian as soon as he went out. He quietly stood beside Lu Xiaoxian, peeking at Lu Xiaoxian.
Lu Xiaoxian didn't go straight to the table and start gambling like other gamblers, he just stood in front of a table with his hands and watched.
The dealer at this table happens to be Yu Baoguan, who just reported to the shopkeeper Hu, and there are many gamblers at this table, which has become the most lively place in the entire gambling house.
"Come on, come on, bet fast, buy and leave!" Yu Baoguan skillfully shook the dice cup, and from time to time made a few jokes with familiar gamblers, which did not prevent him from killing more and losing less, and hundreds of taels of silver were piled up in front of him in a few moments.
Lu Xiaoxian watched for a long meal, and finally bet five coins of silver.
This table is a bet on the size, and the rules are simple and clear.
When Lu Xiaoxian won the first hand, Shopkeeper Hu saw that he was not simple.
After Lu Xiaoxian won six in a row, Shopkeeper Hu's eyes had already narrowed.
Shopkeeper Hu would never believe that a person would have such good luck, but to say that this kid is out of the thousands, it is unlikely! The gambling equipment is from the gambling house, Yu Baoguan is from the gambling house, this kid hasn't even touched the gambling equipment, how can he get a thousand?
After Lu Xiaoxian left, Yu Baoguan came to the shopkeeper Hu's house again.
"Do you see that?" Shopkeeper Hu asked.
Yu Baoguan shook his head.
Not to mention Yu Baoguan, even Shopkeeper Hu himself didn't see what method Lu Xiaoxian used to win.
"How much did he win?" Shopkeeper Hu asked again.
"Twenty-three taels of silver in total!"
"Only won twenty-three taels of silver?" Shopkeeper Hu said in surprise.
"That's right, it's twenty-three taels of silver!" Yu Baoguan affirmed.
Twenty-three taels of silver, for a big gambling house like Tiantong Casino, it is completely negligible. With Lu Xiaoxian's skills, it is okay to win a thousand taels of silver at will, but he only won twenty-three taels of silver and left, which made the shopkeeper Hu surprised.
"He's a master, and he's not greedy!" Shopkeeper Hu said to himself: "It seems that we have to meet him!" ”
Thinking of this, Shopkeeper Hu instructed Yu Baoguan: "Next time he comes to the gambling house, please come directly to my house!" ”
……
These days, Lu Xiaoxian first went to Hua Yunfeng to visit Lin Xuan and Lu Wuflaw every day, and then walked around, and many streets and alleys were also familiar. Read it
On this day, Lu Xiaoxian was walking on the street, and when he saw a person from a distance, even he couldn't help but laugh.
Chang'an City is very large, even if it is relatives, if they don't move around with each other, I'm afraid it will be difficult to see each other for a year and a half. Lu Xiaoxian actually ran into Li Si again, which is too coincidental.
Li Si didn't notice Lu Xiaoxian, his attention was on a middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man walked in front, only seeing the back, looking at the clothes like a businessman.
Lu Xiaoxian happened to have nothing to do, and the child's heart came up, so he crept behind Li Si.
Li Si stared intently at the target, not noticing Lu Xiaoxian behind him at all.
At the moment when Li Si stretched out his hand, Lu Xiaoxian suddenly shouted: "Oops! It's you! ”
The sudden sound of his voice made Na Li Siyi tremble, and he quickly retracted his hand and turned his head to look behind him.
At the same time, the middle-aged businessman also turned his head.
Li Si saw that it was Lu Xiaoxian who had ruined his good deeds, and he was suddenly angry.
Again and again, it is too bullying, Li Si was about to have a seizure, but he heard the middle-aged businessman say in surprise: "Master Lu, it's really you!" When did you come to Chang'an? ”
Lu Xiaoxian looked at each other in a daze, it turned out that Chen Song, who had a relationship in Youzhou City, Lu Xiaoxian invited him and Wu Yanxiu to drink in the autumn wind. At that time, Chen Song repeatedly persuaded Lu Xiaoxian to come to Chang'an for development.
Lu Xiaoxian deliberately shouted, just wanting to scare and scare Li Si, but who knew that the two of them met here.
"I've been here for days! Shopkeeper Chen, why are you here? ”
"I'll come out to do something, it's not far ahead of Yonghe Tower!" Seeing Lu Xiaoxian, Chen Song was very happy, and waved his hand and said, "Let's go, go home, let's have two drinks, and it will be considered as a pick-up for you!" ”
When Lu Xiaoxian was hesitating, Chen Song glanced at Li Si and asked Lu Xiaoxian, "Master Lu, is this your friend?" ”
Hearing Chen Song's question, Li Si showed a panicked look on his face, and looked at Lu Xiaoxian with pleading eyes.
Lu Xiaoxian smiled and nodded to Chen Song and said, "It's my friend!" ”
"Let's go together!" Chen Song warmly invited.
After that, Chen Song pulled one in one hand, and the three of them headed towards Yonghe Building.
Chen Song did not invite Lu Xiaoxian to the restaurant, but treated Lu Xiaoxian warmly at home in the backyard.
In Chen Song's words, Madame's cooking skills are a hundred times stronger than those cooks in Yonghe Building, and Lu Xiaoxian can eat the dishes she cooks, which can be regarded as a blessing.
Chen Song's wife, Yu Shi, is the daughter of the old shopkeeper upstairs in Yonghe.
After the Chen family had an accident, the shopkeeper rushed to Chenzhou and took Chen Song to Chang'an.
When Chen Song became an adult, the shopkeeper married his daughter to Chen Song, and handed over Yonghe Building to Chen Song and his wife.
After the death of the shopkeeper, Chen Song and his wife were very affectionate and jointly operated Yonghe Building.
Chen Song and his wife did not worry about food and clothing in Chang'an, but they were not without worries, the couple had passed the age of no confusion, but there was no man and half woman, which became a heart disease of the Yu family.
The Yu family has repeatedly proposed to let Chen Song take a concubine, so as to continue the incense for the Chen family. But Chen Song was grateful for the kindness of the old shopkeeper, and felt that the concubine did not live in the Yu family, so he never did it.
Chen Song is not indiscriminately complimenting, Yu followed Yu's shopkeeper to make a good cook. It's just that after marrying Chen Song, it will no longer be revealed.
Today, Yu Shi saw that Chen Song was so happy, and he didn't hide his secrets, so he took out all the skills at the bottom of the box and let Lu Xiaoxian eat it beautifully.
Li Si, who came with Lu Xiaoxian, was also stained, and he could barely straighten his waist.
After eating, Lu Xiaoxian said goodbye to Chen Song and his wife, and Chen Song sent the two outside the door.
Chen Song said sincerely: "Master Lu, as soon as I saw you, I felt that we were fated. You don't have to be polite, you can make this your home in the future, and you can come at any time, at least you can have a tooth sacrifice! ”
Chen Song said sincerely, without any pretentiousness, which made Lu Xiaoxian very moved.
Even Li Si on the side heard this, and his eyes turned red.
After saying goodbye to Chen Song, Lu Xiaoxian patted Li Si on the shoulder as he walked: "You can't do anything at a young age, you have to do it." Listen to my advice, stop it, if you lose your hand one day, you will regret breaking your leg! ”
"It's better to say than to sing! If there is another way, who wants to do this? Li Si gritted his teeth and glared at Lu Xiaoxian: "You killed me!" ”
Lu Xiaoxian said strangely: "I persuaded you to change your career for your own good, why did you kill you?" ”
"The other day, I was sick and stayed at home. I finally recovered from my illness and came out to make a living, but I ran into you, a broom star. Tomorrow is the last day to pay my share, and I am empty-handed, and I am going to pick off my skin with my head, and you are not killing me. ”
Lu Xiaoxian understood.
Chang'an City, like Youzhou City, has a leader in every street and square, and the people under the head have to pay tribute to the boss every month. Not only Youzhou City and Chang'an City, it is estimated that it is the same everywhere in the world.
The reason why Li Si made frequent moves turned out to be that he was eager to make up the money of the filial piety leader, Lu Xiaoxian blocked Li Si's financial path three times in a row, no wonder he was anxious with Lu Xiaoxian.
