Volume 1: The Wind Rises and Peace Chapter 84: I like to play with fools the most
As it turned out, Wang Le was wise.
After waiting in place for about half an hour, Wang Le saw Luo Ergou picking his teeth and walking towards him with a few thieves talking and laughing.
Luo Ergou saw that it was Wang Le, and hurriedly greeted him happily, kneeling and licking at Wang Le like a dog's legs.
"Brother Le, I've been looking forward to you for a long time. If you don't come here, we don't know the bottom of our hearts. β
Wang Le glanced at Luo Ergou and sneered.
"I think even if I don't come, you will have to pierce the sky of this Acropolis, right?"
Luo Ergou scratched his head when he heard this, pretending to be crazy and stupid.
"Where did Brother Le say, how could honest countrymen like us do what you said?"
Wang Le didn't interrupt, but said to Luo Ergou.
"Where's the place to have breakfast?" Did you tie me up and even have breakfast? β
Luo Ergou smiled, hurriedly bowed his body, and said to Wang Le.
"Come on, Brother Le, I'll take you."
So, Wang Le came to the inn surrounded by a group of bandits.
When I arrived at the inn, one ear happened to be sitting in the front hall eating breakfast. Seeing that it was Wang Le coming, he hurriedly greeted him.
"The second child is here? Come on, come on, whatever you want to eat. Brother please. β
Wang Le nodded when he heard this, sat next to one ear, and said to one ear with a smile.
"It seems that the eldest brother has made a lot of money in this Acropolis."
One Ear also realized that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly explained.
"Where, where, make a little money, make a little money."
Wang Le smiled, glanced at the table cards engraved with the menu on the table, and then shouted to Xiao Er.
"Two steamed buns, and a bowl of porridge."
Xiao Er's originally expressionless face suddenly twisted into a chrysanthemum when he heard this, and said with a grin at Wang Le.
"Is this all you need from the guest officer?"
Wang Le nodded, but saw that one ear next to him was shaking his head desperately.
Wang Le was a little puzzled, and asked in one ear.
"What's wrong, big brother? Isn't that how the food in the Acropolis is ordered? β
One ear timidly glanced at the shopkeeper who had become more serious at this time, and then said to Wang Le seriously.
"No, no. That's it. That one...... Little Er, hurry up and go to dinner. β
Hearing the words of one ear, Wang Le looked at one ear with some puzzlement, and then looked at the table cards on the table.
The table card says xiaolongbao, that's right.
Not long after, the shopkeeper walked in front of Wang Le with a small bowl of millet porridge, and after putting the millet porridge in front of Wang Le, the shopkeeper said respectfully.
"I'm sorry officer, the buns have to wait for a while, you drink porridge first."
Wang Le looked at the small bowl that was only half the size of a tennis ball, and no matter how he thought about it, he felt that this little thing was not enough to eat by himself.
When he was about to ask Xiao Er for two more steamed buns, he was stopped by an ear on the side.
Seeing that the shopkeeper didn't look at his side, he whispered to Wang Le with one ear.
"Don't scream, you can't finish eating. If you can't finish eating in this shop, you have to pay ten times the price. β
"Huh?"
Wang Le was a little stupid, such a small bowl of porridge, one ear said that he couldn't finish it? How can a man who is several feet tall eat this little thing, who does he look down on?
was slandering in his heart, and saw the shopkeeper carrying two steamers and walking slowly in front of Wang Le.
"The guest officer ordered two steamed buns, thank you for your patronage!"
The passers-by who were sitting in the front hall eating heard the voice of the shopkeeper and turned their heads to Wang Le.
Wang Le looked at the huge steamer in front of him, and couldn't help but be a little stunned.
Isn't this a special xiaolongbao that is said to be good? What about the small cage?
One ear also seemed to see Wang Le's group, and hurriedly came to Wang Le's side to explain.
"This kind of steamer is called a small basket in the Acropolis, not a small steamer."
Wang Le looked at one ear with some reproach when he heard this, and then asked.
"Then why didn't you stop me just now?"
One ear secretly glanced at the shopkeeper who was serving food to the guests not far away, and then said to Wang Le.
"This shop is a bit powerful, and you'll understand it when you look back."
Wang Le looked at the shopkeeper who was sitting at the counter with a smile, and thought about the words of one ear in his heart.
Is this store amazing? Is the background powerful? I don't see it.
Thinking about it, Wang Le took out a bun from the steamer and stuffed it into his mouth.
As soon as he stuffed it into his mouth, Wang Le felt the taste cells in his mouth explode.
I was about to spit out the buns, but I heard an ear stop me.
"Don't spit it out, the consequences of spitting it out are serious."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a person who ordered xiaolongbao not far away spit out the bun in his mouth.
Seeing this, the shopkeeper next to him suddenly shouted at the backyard.
"Bao Niang, someone spit out the buns!"
When it was too late, I saw a burly woman rushing out of the back kitchen with a kitchen knife and shouting around.
"Where? Where? What about the people who spit buns? β
Seeing this, the person who spit out the bun hurriedly picked up the steamed bun he spit out from the ground, and swallowed it in one gulp.
This action drew a burst of laughter from the rest of the table.
I heard a man about the same age as the man laugh.
"Brother Tai, you have seen Bao Niang's dignity, how is it? Do you dare to order steamed buns? β
The man hurriedly waved his hand and replied with a pained expression.
"Don't dare, don't dare."
Wang Le was about to open his mouth to ask what the situation was with one ear, but he couldn't hold back for a moment and spit the bun in his mouth onto the table.
The originally stupid bun girl also vomited when she saw Wang Le's bun, and her eyes suddenly lit up.
"Hey, hey, this official, are you really going to marry a slave?"
Wang Le is stupid, why am I going to marry you with a bun? What is the rationale for this?
After carefully looking at Bao Niang's sturdy body, Wang Le collapsed even more.
I don't call it Beta, and I don't know how to drive a tank.
Seeing that Wang Le didn't speak, the smile on Bao Niang's face became even stronger, and she pretended to be gentle at Wang Le.
"If the official doesn't speak, is it a default? Why don't we go to the temple in a while, find a fortune teller to take an auspicious day of the zodiac, and get married as soon as possible. By the way, the official, as soon as the slave family sees you, they are impressed by your temperament. At the first glance of the official, the slave family even thought of the name of the child in the future. Saying that, Bao Niang covered her face shyly.
Wang Le's face turned green when he heard this. Not only do you want me to drive a tank, but you also want me to be a father? How can anyone have a child in the future? What the hell are you dribbling the ball?
In order to prevent Bao Niang from temporarily adding drama to herself, Wang Le hurriedly spoke.
"You misunderstood, I just saw that this brother's posture of spitting out buns was too handsome, and I couldn't help but imitate it. Can't help it, can't help it......"
As he spoke, Wang Le also pointed to the person who spit out the bun just now, and there was a misfortune.
After Bao Niang saw the man's face, her eyes suddenly lit up. Regardless of Wang Le's, he sat next to the man and said with a smile.
"This official, it turns out that you hooked the soul of the slave family. No wonder the slave family is dizzy and speechless when they see you...... Oh, my little liver, as soon as I see the official, I plop and jump. Don't believe in officials, do you touch it? β
The person who was led to the disaster by Wang Le's trick was green at this time. Why the hell do you see anyone like this?
After looking at Wang Le viciously, he pretended to say to Bao Niang.
"Girl, you recognized the wrong person, so I didn't spit out the buns."
As he spoke, the man pointed at Wang Le again and continued to speak.
"But his bun was spit out, and everyone saw it."
Bao Niang's eyes looked at Wang Le again, Wang Le suddenly felt a spirit, and immediately sat up straight, as if he was talking to himself.
"Alas...... Some people dare not do it, it is better to be a son-in-law for others. β
Bao Niang's eyes lit up again when she heard this, looked at the people around her, and then muttered to herself.
"Inverted Son-in-law ......"
When Bao Niang said this, Wang Le seemed to see Bao Niang's saliva flowing out of the corner of his eye.
An hour after this farce, Bao Niang kidnapped the man and asked the man's family to ransom him with a dowry as an end.
Wang Le patted his chest gently after the farce ended. Scared to death, really.
The follower came to his room with one ear, and after a while, Luo Ergou also walked in with Lou Million and Ma Han.
Wang Le saw that everyone had arrived, and then he spoke.
"Let's talk about it, how far have things gotten now? What did you all do? β
So, Yi'er, Lou Million, Luo Ergou and Ma Han reported to Wang Le in turn about their recent work.
Wang Le listened and nodded, and after the four of them had finished speaking, Wang Le spoke.
"In other words, there is a big problem with the City Lord's Mansion here in the Heavenly Acropolis, and it is likely to launch a coup d'Γ©tat, right?"
Lou Million nodded, then looked at Wang Le with a solemn face, and said with some concern.
"Yes, what we're worried about now is whether it will affect our plans if the Acropolis really changes hands."
Wang Le frowned when he heard this, then stretched out again and said to everyone.
"Your worries are warranted, for no one can say what the successor will do to you outsiders. But since there is such an uncontrollable possibility, then we have to make this uncontrollable possibility impossible. β
As he spoke, Wang Le picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip of tea, then slowly spoke.
"Who are the possible successors you have now, and what is their position on the coming war?"
Luo Ergou thought about it when he heard this, and then replied to Wang Le.
"The lord of the Acropolis has three sons, and the eldest son may not be able to come back when he heard that he went out to ask for food. The second child is a famous celebrity in the Acropolis, and he likes it on weekdays. The poem is right, but I heard that there are many people in the city lord's mansion who want to support the second child. As for the third ......"
"What's the situation with the third child?"
Hearing Wang Le's question, Luo Ergou hesitated for a moment before replying.
"I heard that the third is a fool......"
Before Luo Ergou finished speaking, he heard Wang Le clapping happily.
"Fools? Hello fools, I like to play with fools the most. β
