Although Gongsun Jian didn't say it explicitly, Gu Qing could also see that Gongsun Jian seemed to be a little tired of his constant praise, so he thought about what else he could praise in his mind.

However, he has not come up with it until now.

Therefore, when he heard Gongsun Jian's question, he didn't react for a while, just nodded and said.

For this answer, Gongsun Jian was very dissatisfied, because Gu Qing did not take the bait, so his idea of letting Gu Qing treat him was shattered.

After walking a few steps, looking at the Evergreen Building in front of him, which was still brightly lit, his heart moved, and Gongsun Jian hurriedly said to Gu Qing: "Brother Gu, how was the meal you ate in Evergreen Building last time?" ”

"It's okay, it's better than eating at home." Gu Qing, who had given up looking for Gongsun Jian here, pursed his mouth and said.

Although Changqinglou is the largest restaurant in Tianyuan, it is like that compared to the capital, even the food in the Tianzi Guards is not comparable.

After all, the Son of Heaven Guard is to protect the official's family, and he must eat and drink well in normal times.

"That's okay, if I handle a big case today, how about I invite Brother Gu in Changqing Building?" Although he was still not satisfied with Gu Qing's answer, Gongsun Jian could only lead him around the bush.

"My lord, do you have any silver?" Gu Qing glanced at Gongsun Jian in some surprise.

Although the official income of the imperial court was issued once a month, it was in a place where the economy was better. And in a remote place like Tianyuan County, it basically happens once a year.

In fact, not only Gongsun Jian is like this, but also the people in the entire Tianyuan other official mansions, so until now, Gongsun Jian still owes Gu Qing several taels of silver that has not been repaid.

As soon as Gu Qing's question came out, Gongsun Jian smiled a little embarrassedly. But then he spoke: "Brother Gu, use yours first this time, and when I send it, I will definitely pay you back." ”

Gongsun Jian just said this, after all, since he decided to pit Gu Qing today, how could he spend his own money?

It's just that Gongsun Jian didn't take it seriously, but Gu Qing on the other side took it seriously.

When he saw Gongsun Jian say this, he thought for a moment and said, "That's okay, my lord." You'll have to give it back to me when the time comes! ”

In his opinion, Gongsun Jian, such a county order of the seventh grade, how could it be impossible to repay the debt, right?

What's more, he himself will always follow Gongsun Jian, even if Gongsun Jian wants to repay the debt, it is impossible. It was precisely because of these considerations that Gu Qing directly agreed.

Gu Qing agreed so quickly, which made Gongsun Jian a little surprised, he really didn't expect Gu Qing to believe in himself so much.

For a while, Gongsun Jian's heart was full of guilt. It's just that when I think of the shyness in my pocket, this guilt disappears in an instant.

Therefore, he could only praise Gu Qing with a smile on his face, "It's still your ancient brother who is interesting enough." ”

"That's it, you go and inquire, who doesn't know my name as a righteous Bo Yuntian Guqing." Perhaps because Gongsun Jian praised him for not being able to find the north, Gu Qing also boasted about himself.

Gongsun Jian rolled his eyes covertly, and was he still righteous? Even if this is true, no one has ever heard of Gu Qing's name!

However, Gongsun Jian didn't say anything, because now he still has to rely on Gu Qing to eat?

Therefore, he hurriedly smiled and went to the Evergreen Building in front.

As soon as he arrived at the door, Xiao Er nodded and trotted over.

"Oh, Lord Gongsun, you're here!"

As for why Xiao Er was so enthusiastic, Gongsun Jian naturally understood in his heart.

Isn't it just that he is a county magistrate, and he will definitely not sit in the hall?

However, Gongsun Jian didn't break it, and besides, it was Gu Qing who paid for a treat today, so he said directly and magnificently: "Little Er, take us to the second floor to eat." ”

"Hey, okay Gongsun, please come with me."

Throwing the white towel in his hand over his shoulder, the little second hurriedly took Gongsun Jian and the two to the second floor.

When he used to watch TV series, Gongsun Jian was very curious about why the junior in the restaurant would bring a white towel, but now he found out that this white towel was originally used to wipe the table.

When Gongsun Jian and the two came to the private room on the second floor, the welcoming guest Xiao Er first wiped the already clean tables and chairs casually, and then said with a smile: "Lord Gongsun, you two wait for a while, and someone will come to entertain you later." ”

Immediately, he turned and left, and returned to the door to continue greeting guests.

In fact, Xiao Er at the door didn't need to bring the guests to the position at all. But Gongsun Jian's identity is different, and the inn doesn't want to cause any trouble, so even if you meet a guest with a slightly more noble status, you will be warmly sent to the location.

Not long after he left, someone came to the private room to entertain Gongsun Jian and the others.

However, what made Gongsun Jian slightly surprised was that the person who came was not Xiao Er, but the shopkeeper Yuan of this restaurant.

As soon as Shopkeeper Yuan came in, he looked at Gongsun Jian with a smile on his face like a flower.

"My lord, why don't you say it in advance when you come, I can let the kitchen prepare the meal early!" Although there was a hint of complaint, the meaning was to curry favor with Gongsun Jian.

The reason why Shopkeeper Yuan is like this is that this afternoon, Gongsun Jian dispatched dozens of arresters to arrest the Gu family, which made him very frightened.

After all, who would have thought that Gongsun Jian, who has been kind and angry since he took office, would be able to do such an earth-shattering thing.

This is something that has never happened in Tian Yuan in hundreds of years!

It is precisely because of this that the shopkeeper Yuan, who was a little frightened, did not pretend not to know about the arrival of Gongsun Jian as he thought.

Regarding the affairs of Gongsun Jian and the Gu family, although he does not stand on either side, he is also a wealthy businessman of Tianyuan no matter what, and he always understands it.

Before, Gongsun Jian just asked Qin Shouye to take several wealthy businessmen to target the Gu family, which had already shocked him.

Unexpectedly, this afternoon, Gongsun Jian directly went out with a large number of people to arrest the Gu family in prison.

Although the situation is still unclear, and Shopkeeper Yuan doesn't know who the final winner will be, since Gongsun Jian has come to dinner, then he has to entertain him well.

Otherwise, if the final winner is Gongsun Jian, and he didn't entertain him well, he made him angry.

The final result is not something that Shopkeeper Yuan can bear.

Therefore, as soon as Gongsun Jian appeared, Shopkeeper Yuan smiled and ran over to entertain him personally.

Gongsun Jian on the other side naturally didn't understand what this shopkeeper Yuan was thinking, but he still heard what Gongsun Jian meant.

So he wasn't annoyed, and said directly with a smile: "How can I trouble you Yuan Shopkeeper, besides, I'm just having a meal, so I don't need to be so troublesome." ”

"Don't bother, don't bother, you're our Tianyuan's parent official! You have to be the best at hospitality. Shopkeeper Yuan glanced at Gongsun Jian, and then said with a smile: "That's it, Lord Gongsun." Today's meal is my invitation, and I will give you the reward for the scourge of our Tianyuan in addition to the Gu family. ”

Glancing at the shopkeeper Yuan, Gongsun Jian was a little surprised.

After all, the case of this ancient family has just come out, why did Shopkeeper Yuan know it so quickly? Could it be that there are internal ghosts in the yamen?

However, when Gongsun Jian saw that although Shopkeeper Yuan was smiling, he didn't have much enthusiasm, he understood why Shopkeeper Yuan said this.

In fact, Shopkeeper Yuan didn't know the result, but he said this in order not to offend Gongsun Jian, and even if it was Gu Fugui who came today, Shopkeeper Yuan would definitely say the opposite thing just now.

For the cleverness of the shopkeeper Yuan, after Gongsun Jian understood, he was not angry.

After all, Shopkeeper Yuan didn't offend him in the first place, so he didn't need to be angry. The second is that the shopkeeper Yuan wants to be exempted, which makes Gongsun Jian very satisfied.

In the face of Gu Qing's infinite trust just now, Gongsun Jian was actually quite ashamed. Therefore, now that the shopkeeper Yuan is ready to free the order, Gongsun Jian will naturally not let it go.

Smiling slightly, Gongsun Jian opened his mouth and said to the shopkeeper Yuan: "Shopkeeper Yuan, forget it for free." Besides, I was a little tired from interrogating the case with Brother Gu today, and I couldn't eat much at all. ”

On the surface, Gongsun Jian's words seem to mean that it doesn't cost much to eat today, and it is not interesting to be free at all.

But secretly, he revealed a message to the shopkeeper Yuan opposite.

That is, the case has already had a result, and Gongsun Jian has won.

After all, if Gongsun Jian hadn't completely taken down Gu Fugui, then it would be impossible to have the leisure to eat.

The shopkeeper Yuan on the other side is naturally a shrewd person, and after listening to Gongsun Jian's words, he understood after a little pondering.

Therefore, he quickly pretended to be angry and said, "My lord, what you said is not right. I must be invited to this meal today, otherwise, the villagers of Tianyuan will not be able to scold me? ”

Hearing this, Gongsun Jian could only nod helplessly and said, "Okay Yuan shopkeeper, but don't do it too well today, otherwise I will not be happy in my heart." ”

Gongsun Jian's helplessness was of course pretended, after all, his original intention was to let the shopkeeper Yuan be exempted.

As for the latter sentence, of course, you have to listen to it in reverse, since Gongsun Jian decided to come to the restaurant to eat, it must be a good meal. Otherwise, wouldn't he just go back to the house and eat? Why do you have to come to the restaurant?

Gu Qing on the side didn't hear what Gongsun Jian meant, and interjected with some dissatisfaction: "My lord, we are here to eat in the restaurant, not at home." ”

As soon as his words came out, Gongsun Jian glared at him slightly, so frightened that Gu Qing hurriedly stopped talking again.

After all, Gongsun Jian had explained before that when he was talking to others, Gu Qing couldn't interject.

The shopkeeper Yuan on the other side was slightly surprised when he heard the words of Gu Qing, the master.

After all, Gongsun Jian's meaning is so simple, how can a master who has been with Gongsun Jian for so long not be able to guess.

However, after all, this is Gongsun Jian's business, and he doesn't talk much, so he quickly retires.

"My lord, you can wait for a while, and the food will be brought to you later." After glancing at Gu Qing strangely, Shopkeeper Yuan hurriedly left with a smile.

"My lord, why didn't you let me speak just now? Wait a minute, that shopkeeper Yuan will definitely not serve any good dishes. After the shopkeeper Yuan left, Gu Qing complained with some dissatisfaction.

Shaking his head with a smile, Gongsun Jian hurriedly said: "Whether you say it or not, that Yuan shopkeeper won't be too bad." ”

"Why?" Gu Qing was taken aback and asked with some curiosity.

After all, Gongsun Jian said just now that he should not be too good, he Yuan is the shopkeeper of a small restaurant, and he will not dare to disobey the county order, right?

Regarding Gu Qing's thoughts, Gongsun Jian was very clear, after all, Gu Qing was not a person who knew how to hide things, except for the task of course.

Therefore, seeing his surprised expression, Gongsun Jian understood what he was thinking.

Taking advantage of the joy in his heart, Gongsun Jian simply satisfied his curiosity.

"Usually, this shopkeeper Yuan would definitely not dare to disobey my orders, but this time is different, serving a few more good dishes during the meal will only make people satisfied, not angry."

"Oh!" After listening to Gongsun Jian's answer, Gu Qing nodded as if he didn't understand.

Seeing this, Gongsun Jian on the side held his forehead and sighed a little tiredly.

Because he understood that this Gu Qing only paid attention to him answering the question, and did not think about why.

Otherwise, Gu Qing would have understood something after following Gongsun Jian for so long.

However, Gongsun Jian didn't force him to know too much, after all, it's good to be stupid like now, at least Gongsun Jian won't be scared.
