Erpigou has now begun to take shape as a small city.

Around the school, to the west are workshops rising from the ground.

The Chen family's workshop grew larger and larger, raising countless amounts of money through the stock market, and finally the workshop rose from the ground.

And Xiangdong, is the exchange, the exchange is the most prosperous place, around the exchange, there is a market, this market is even more magnificent than the east and west markets, because most of the shops along the street sell more luxurious goods, such as silk, porcelain and all kinds of rouge gouache, as well as all kinds of ornaments......

There are also high-end restaurants, and there is no shortage of customers here, and those who go in and out of the exchange are already quite wealthy, especially when the stock market is soaring, they are also happy to pick up some luxury goods to take home.

Even not far away, there are some opera troupes and various restaurants, so that there are some dignitaries and nobles, even if they don't come to the exchange, they are willing to come here for a walk.

After all...... The shops in Chang'an are scattered, and the consumption places dedicated to such wealthy people are often scattered in all corners of Chang'an City, but they are not as comfortable as here.

With a large number of consumers, it is inevitable that there are many well-dressed guys in front of the door to welcome customers, and they are extremely attentive one by one, and when they see Li Chengqian and the three of them hanging out, they invite them to go upstairs.

Li Chengqian has been accustomed to being lavish since he was a child, and after listening to flattery, he felt as if his feet did not obey the call.

I went in and asked for a large table of wine and food, and after only half of it, I was full of wine and food, and when I settled the bill, I found that I had spent a lot of money in my hand.

He's not in a hurry.

Chen Zhengtai is happy to hang out with him.

On the same day, Li Chengqian stayed at a good inn.

The next day...... There was only more than 300 wen left in his hand, and after a full meal, he found that the first-class inn could no longer afford to live, so he ...... Stayed in a normal inn.

Of course...... There are a lot of goods here, so he also bought a lot of novelties, big bags and small bags.

On the third day, Li Chengqian found that he only had a dozen copper plates left in his hand.

And Chen Zhengtai saw that this guy was poor, and when Li Chengqian got up early in the morning, he found that Chen Zhengtai was nowhere to be found, and only left a letter, telling him that he had something to do, and the third brother would look at Li Chengqian and not try to cheat.

"This guy ......" Li Chengqian was speechless, he looked up at Xue Rengui in front of him.

Xue Rengui's expression was very calm: "I only expected that the eldest brother would definitely leave, and I estimated that he would hold on until tomorrow, who knew that when he got up early this morning, he left this letter." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince...... I am hungry. ”

Li Chengqian: "......"

Regardless of being annoyed by Chen Zhengtai, Li Chengqian had to obediently go to the street to buy two steamed cakes, eat one, and hide one, while Xue Rengui on the side was hungry, his eyes were glowing green, and he stared at Li Chengqian deadly.

Li Chengqian was annoyed by the staring, and couldn't help patting him on the shoulder: "Anyway, we are also people who share hardships together, let me ask you, how much money did your eldest brother leave you?" ”

Xue Rengui still looked at the position of Li Chengqian's chest where the steamed cakes were hidden, swallowed his saliva and said: "Big brother said, you can't cheat, so you don't keep a penny, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is only afraid that he will have to figure out his own way." ”

Li Chengqian: "......"

"Don't be afraid." He thought about it and patted Xue Rengui: "If you follow me, you can be regarded as the right person, don't always worry about this steamed cake, I will earn some money later, let's continue to eat and drink spicy food." ”

It's still so heroic.

Xue Rengui: "......"

Li Chengqian was indeed very confident, and he calmly walked into a silk shop.

When the guy here saw the guest coming, he immediately greeted him with a smile: "Guest officer, what do you like?" ”

"I'm here to do business." Li Chengqian sat down, crossed his legs, and said gracefully: "Call your host, you are not worthy to talk to me." ”

Half an hour later.

A few sturdy men threw Li Chengqian out of the shop with a fierce face, and those men were still scolding and scolding: "Dog-like things, if you don't have money, you dare to speak out and do business...... Ahh ”

Li Chengqian fell into the mud, but fortunately, it was just a little painful, and he didn't hurt anything, his first reaction was to touch his chest, fortunately, the steamed cake was still there.

He stood up, wanting to get angry, but thinking of the bet with Chen Zhengtai, he didn't start the prince's temper here.

Passers-by along the street looked at him one after another, but he was a little ashamed, especially Xue Rengui who only stood on the side, holding his hands and not saying a word.

Li Chengqian shook his head, feeling very free and easy.

This group of eyeless things......

Then, he continued to wander the streets.

It's just that the more I sway, the more hungry I get.

He took out the steamed cake again and swallowed his saliva.

In Li Chengqian's dictionary, there is no such thing as failure.

So...... There is no such thing as admitting defeat to Chen Zhengtai.

Thus...... He decided to eat the steamed cake, so he simply stopped trading and went to find a good errand.

He felt that with his ability, it should be no problem to just get an errand with a high salary to eat and live.

He nibbled on the steamed cake, and Xue Rengui squatted aside to watch.

The bloodshot, glowing green eyes were terrifying.

Li Chengqian ate most of the piece, but he still felt hungry in his stomach, but he really couldn't stand it, he sighed, and handed the remaining half of the steamed cake to Xue Rengui.

Xue Rengui was also hungry, so he reached out and grabbed it, and directly stuffed all the steamed cakes into his mouth, as if he was afraid of being snatched back by Li Chengqian.

Then, with his cheeks puffed out like this, he took the steamed cake in his mouth and refused to swallow it.

Li Chengqian looked at him with disdain and turned his back.

Xue Rengui glanced at Li Chengqian's back with the same disdain.

Next, Li Chengqian appeared in a teahouse, entered the teahouse, and as soon as he sat down, he said, "Do you need a shopkeeper here?" I would ......."

Xue Rengui's jaw was about to drop, and then he witnessed more than a dozen guys rushing towards Li Chengqian with a scream.

Xue Rengui raised his hand and shouted: "It's okay to slap him in the face, but don't hurt your muscles and bones, and harm your life!" ”

……

Li Chengqian came out of the teahouse in embarrassment, and at this time he began to curse, starting with Chen Zhengtai, and then scolding every guy in the teahouse.

He seemed to feel ...... Everyone here has an abominable face, and it seems that everyone is full of malice towards him.

It's just that...... He was so hungry that he was angry again.

He had countless impulses to pull his guards over and raze the teahouse to the ground.

But he still held back, and he couldn't be looked down upon by that kid Chen Zhengtai.

Lone is the prince, how can he easily admit defeat.

Lone at least has the strength, not afraid.

Thereupon...... When I arrived at a restaurant, I went in, and I was still full of energy: "I saw a sign hanging outside, recruiting people who brush dishes, do you want to eat?" ”

"Let's go, you thin skin and tender meat, what kind of plate to brush, we are looking for an old woman, you boy, what kind of fun."

Li Chengqian said: "What are you talking about, I'm not better than an old woman?" How can this be justified......"

The other party showed an angry look: "Get out of here!" ”

This time...... Li Chengqian actually learned to be obedient.

Previously, when he heard these three words, he had a contemptuous smile, exuding the aura of a king, and then said lightly, you can try it.

Outcome...... After being beaten twice, this time he seemed to have experience, but whenever he encountered these three words, he immediately showed a pure smile, and simply nodded neatly: "Oh." ”

And then ran out in a puff of smoke.

Xue Rengui had no choice but to trot out with him.

Li Chengqian shook his head, looking confident: "Have you watched it?" This time it was stronger than the last time, at least it wasn't beaten. ”

Xue Rengui looked at the sky with beads in his eyes, and listened to the eldest brother say that the eyes are the windows of the soul, and if he said that he was lying, he would expose himself if he looked directly into the eyes of the other party.

His eyes fell on the sky and he said, "Yes, yes, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has made rapid progress. ”

It was already dark, but I didn't eat dinner, and the steamed cakes in the morning had already been digested.

I was hungry again.

It was still a little cold, and the night wind was blowing.

After visiting a few inns and making sure that people didn't want to pay on credit, and they didn't mind beating Li Chengqian for free, Li Chengqian found that he had only two choices, either to admit defeat to Chen Zhengtai, or to sleep on the streets.

Thereupon...... In an alley with two high walls, Li Chengqian happily found the best position.

Curled up, he said to Xue Rengui proudly: "Lonely is still very good, at noon, I knew that the terrain here is good, suitable for sleeping in the open, I have always been careful, you see...... Rengui, this is called the three caves of the cunning rabbit, take precautions, poor beggars on the street, they don't have such cognition, they actually hide under the eaves to sleep, hehe...... Rengui, come and tell Lone, who is more powerful Lone or those beggars. ”

Xue Rengui was so hungry that he lay down directly on the ground, motionless, and soon began to snore.

"This idiot is not afraid of the cold." Li Chengqian despised Xue Rengui, and then he approached Xue Rengui without hesitation, it was a little hotter here, and then turned his head......

Now...... Li Chengqian suddenly began to feel ...... Compared with the good days of the past, it seems that every hour and every incense stick in the past is worth remembering and remembering.

Next...... It was awakened by the cold.

Li Chengqian opened his eyes tremblingly, got up, and suddenly his eyes lit up: "Hahahahaha...... Rengui, Rengui...... See what this is? ”

Xue Rengui got up and rubbed his eyes, but saw Li Chengqian holding a few copper coins in his hand.

At this time, Xue Rengui seemed to have discovered a new continent all of a sudden, and said happily: "I don't know who left it with us, haha...... You can go and buy a steamed cake, by the way...... Let's use clothes as ...... again."

When Xue Rengui heard that he wanted to be clothes, he subconsciously hugged his body tightly.
