Zhou Wenbin and his entourage have been wandering around for a while, and no matter how long they go, they can finish the whole city.

"Big... Uncle, why don't we sit down and rest for a while, I, I really can't walk! ”

In order to avoid being seen, Zhou Wenbin deliberately asked him to call himself that.

After saying this, the entourage was wearing the brocade clothes that he usually didn't dare to think of, but he didn't feel distressed at all, and sat on the ground.

It is said that "poor literature and rich martial arts", this sentence naturally makes sense.

Ordinary people are not wealthy, and it is already very good to have meat for their meals.

On weekdays, like those poor people who eat, a little oily can be satisfied.

And those who practice martial arts, who eat a little more, will eat several catties of fresh meat, close to half a bucket of rice, or seven or eight white buns in one meal, if they drink a few catties of wine, this meal can eat the whole family!

People like Xu Lai, who look thin, eat much more than the average person.

Like those who don't want to ask about the world, they will also choose those villages close to rivers and lakes, or the deep mountains and old forests infested with wild beasts to live, even if they live in seclusion, they have to eat enough!

For example, because Zhou Wenbin has been chopping wood and reading since he was a child, his physical strength is naturally stronger than that of the one sitting underground.

Zhou Wenbin was also a little hot because of the sun, stood in place and fanned the wind with his hands, frowned and said: "Yes, it's not a big deal to go on like this, you can rest for a while, I'll go to the small inn on the side and ask!" ”

Zhou Wenbin didn't actually know how to do it, he knew that he should ask the owners of the restaurants, but he didn't know how to speak just now!

Because he was born poor, he had a little inferiority complex in his bones, and before he was famous, in the village where he was born, he didn't dare to speak out loud in front of everyone, for fear of being ridiculed.

When I first entered Beijing, I didn't even dare to ask my wealthy peers about the dishes that were not named.

It was only after he put on that official uniform that the situation improved, and he slowly dared to talk to people when there were many people, and he himself thought that he had changed!

It wasn't until today that he realized that he still had low self-esteem, which was something that seeped into his bones and couldn't get rid of it for a lifetime, it turned out that it was just that official uniform that made him feel better, not that he really got rid of it!

And he doesn't know how to play a rich man, because he is very poor, even if he becomes such a big official, he is still a poor child with low self-esteem.

But as he walked towards the humble inn, his heart changed, and there was always something for him

When others think highly of him, for him, it is Xi Fang's affirmation of him that day in the temple test.

Zhou Wenbin thought as he walked, he was really unenlightened, he could do what he wanted to do, he was already a rich person, just like now he is helping His Majesty investigate the case, this is his own unique wealth, not necessarily wealth, everyone is like this.

Watching him walk to the entourage of the inn, he felt that his adult seemed to have become taller, he stared at it carefully, and suddenly realized that his back was straightened!

......

......

Zhou Wenbin was still a little timid when he entered the store, he didn't know how to show the performance of a rich businessman.

Then he used the simplest method, he found an empty table in the corner, slapped his hand on the table, and said: "Xiao Er, give me all your best dishes, and then bring me a pot of good wine, hurry up, I won't give you any money if it's slow!" ”

Xiao Er, who was cleaning up the leftovers from the guests on the table over there, saw Zhou Wenbin so magnificent, and really regarded him as a businessman on the rich side.

And thinking about whether he could please a few pennies and rewards, he hurriedly responded, and then trotted all the way to the back kitchen, so that the few cooks who were still idle hurriedly got busy.

Here, Zhou Wenbin's entourage entered the inn, saw Zhou Wenbin sitting in the corner, and walked straight away.

When he got closer, he found that Zhou Wenbin's hands were shaking, and he thought that Zhou Wenbin was really suffering from an old disease as he said in the hall that day, so he inquired about it.

"Uncle, this is a recurrence of your old disease, is it a big problem?"

"Don't worry, nephew, uncle is thinking about how to eat the delicious food that will be delivered later!"

Where did Zhou Wenbin have those problems, he was a little angry by Xiao Ye's perfunctory answer in the public court yesterday, and today he was a little trembling with the table of good wine and food he ordered!

It was enough for him to pretend to be a rich merchant, but it was not enough to carry the silver on him, so he took a general look at the wooden sign with the name of the dish on the wall, and touched his money bag, presumably pressing himself to let the nephew next to him go back to the inn to get the money.

Even if it's for the purpose of investigating the case, you can't eat white food!

Looking at the exquisite Huaiyang dishes, which were placed on the table dizzyingly, the attendant's saliva was already flowing on the table.

But his cheap uncle hasn't moved his chopsticks yet, and he can't keep his mouth shut, so he can only watch with his eyes blank.

With a flattering expression, the shopkeeper came over with a jar of wine, and pulled out the cork wrapped in red cloth directly, not seeing Zhou Wenbin's painful expression at all.

This is the Sangluo wine that has been stored in the altar for eight years, which was introduced by the boss just now, and this jar wine is comparable to the dishes on this table!

"Guest officer, the dishes are all served to you, and the wine is also opened for you, you..."

After the junior said these words, his eyes kept looking at Zhou Wenbin's waist, and his immature face had a coppery appearance that did not belong to this age.

Zhou Wenbin opened his money bag, and in distress, he picked out the smallest piece of broken silver with his fingers and put it on the table.

When the junior saw Zhou Wenbin's movements and the broken silver on the table, he couldn't help but scold in his heart that this businessman was really a bit treacherous!

However, his face still showed that he was very grateful to Zhou Wenbin for his reward, and looked around, afraid of being seen by the boss, so he hurriedly put it on his waist.

"Young man, let me ask you something, where do you buy the salt you use to cook every day?"

Zhou Wenbin put a piece of fatty fish meat in his mouth, waiting for the little er, who looked no more than sixteen or seventeen years old, to reply to his words.

The little second wiped the oily hand on his clothes just now because he had stolen something from the kitchen, and said with a smile: "What the guest officer said, although our inn is small, what we can do is a serious business, this salt must be the official salt bought from the special salt shop in the imperial court, you seem to be a businessman, you don't even know this!" ”

Zhou Wenbin hesitated for a moment, then took out a piece of broken silver from the money bag, put it on the table, and then motioned for Xiao Er to lean his head over.

Xiao Er was naturally overjoyed when he saw Yinzi, and hurriedly leaned his head over.

Zhou Wenbin put his mouth to Xiao Er's ear and asked softly: "I mean is there anything that ordinary people can't buy, I also want to buy some and ship it home, although I have money, but I still want to be cheap!" ”

Xiao Er scratched his head with his index finger, looked at the silver in his hand, thought for a while, and replied in a low voice: "Then I'll go and ask you, but you have to be tighter, now you say that there is a Qin cha here, you must know that this is a big sin of losing your head!" ”

Zhou Wenbin squinted his eyes and nodded several times, and then waved his hand to signal Xiao Er to ask now!

......

......

The pair of cheap uncles and nephews ate almost all the dishes on the table, and the wine was half a jar, and then the little two also came back from outside at the right time.

Zhou Wenbin wiped his mouth with his cuffs, and then asked the little second who was a little out of breath: "Young man, have you inquired?" ”

The little second picked up the bowl in front of Zhou Wenbin, drank it in one gulp, and then spit on the ground again, kept fanning the wind to his mouth with his hand, and said with some annoyance: "I really don't know what's so good about this, it's spicy!" ”

Xiao Er drank some more water, relieved himself, and then continued: "I asked for you, but people said that you can't sell it to unfamiliar guests, you still don't think about it, you have eaten well, just settle the account of this table, I can go to the theater garden to watch the play after I clean up your table!" ”

Zhou Wenbin was a little depressed, he gave this kid two pieces of broken silver for nothing, and then not only didn't ask about it, but also let himself leave so quickly.

Zhou Wenbin suppressed the hint of unhappiness and asked: "I don't know where the boss is, young man, can you tell me, I can go to him by myself!" ”

Xiao Er hurriedly shook his head, his face became ugly, and said, "I said that you should settle the bill, if I tell you, I will lose my head!" ”

Zhou Benbin smiled helplessly and said: "Okay, then let my nephew go back to the inn to get the money, I'll wait here, I didn't bring enough silver with me when I went out today, what do you think!" ”

"The boss said that all guests' money must be settled in cash, not on credit!"

"Young man, I'm not on credit, I'm staying here as a mortgage and letting my nephew go back and get the money!"

"No, no!"

When the two were arguing here, they didn't think that the owner of this inn also heard it, and directly brought three guys over, looked at Zhou Wenbin with a fierce face and said, "You two want to eat the overlord meal, let him go first, and then you will find a way to slip away, huh?" ”

Zhou Wenbin's entourage didn't want others to slander his family like this, so he looked at the shopkeeper and said, "It's not good for you to take a good look at my family... Who is my uncle who owes you money for this meal? ”

The boss pointed out the dishes on the table one by one, looked at the jar of wine on the table again, sneered, and said, "Do you know how much these things cost?" Thirty-four taels of silver! ”

Because the entourage didn't look at the price of the food when he came in, he thought that Zhou Wenbin really didn't have enough money today, but he didn't expect this table of dishes to be so expensive!

"You fart, just seven or eight dishes, and this broken jar of wine, worth so much money?"

Zhou Wenbin heard what his cheap nephew said, and hurriedly pressed him on the chair, then got up and said: "Boss, see if you can be accommodating, let my nephew go back to the inn where I live over there to get the money and come over, otherwise it won't be interesting for us to spend so much!" ”

"No, I've seen a lot of people like you, I want to eat and drink for nothing, but there is no door, since I can't get the money, let's go to the official!"

After the boss finished speaking, he directly followed the three of them, and escorted Zhou Wenbin and the others out of the door like prisoners in official uniforms, and walked in the direction of the yamen!
