"The two sons can take a look, our riverside street, but it is the most beautiful scenery in Jiankang City, what immortal temples, what towers and city walls, but all of them can't compare to it! Do you see the endless fleet on the riverside? This is the wonderful painting boat in the mouth of the literati and ink writers! Although it is not the best time to take a boat to cruise the river at the moment, no matter how beautiful the river scenery is, it is not as beautiful as the water snake waist of the girls swaying in the wind! ”

Shen Gui and Qi Yan had already changed into a first-class handmade Suzhou embroidered gown at this time, each of them was wearing a hosta green gauze crown on their heads, and they also shook the fan gently in their hands, which was completely integrated with the scene of this flower street.

Now the person who is leading the way in front is just a market man who lies under the archway of the Qinhuai River every day and makes a living by selling. This kind of person helps the surrounding businesses to attract customers, and draws points from both ends to make a living. Judging by the nature of their work, they should be under the jurisdiction of the tooth shop, but in reality they can only be regarded as ruffians; The reason is also very simple, they don't have half a sentence of spring ceremony incision on their mouths, and they don't have a fixed organization of the Tooth People Guild behind them, and even the iron laws that the Tooth Shop relies on to survive, they don't know anything and don't abide by it.

Shen Gui and Qi Yan, as early as the beginning of entering Jiankang City to make an appointment, had already changed into the most popular local literati clothes, plus there was food in their pockets, so they didn't need to find any local escorts at all; And this person is also a self-cooked man who forcibly chased the two of them before and after the saddle without negotiating any conditions, and he also wanted to work for the two noble sons.

This Jianghu Road has the rules of Jianghu Road, and the people of Jianghu also have the dignity of Jianghu people. Even if the people in the world are not treated well by the people, if they really need their help, the family can only go to the teahouse or wine shop in person, and invite people to come over or have a banquet with good words.

There is a way to catch up, not to buy and sell, whether it is Beiyan or Youbei Third Road, there is no business all the way, it has to chase the owner to hire a forced deal. Come, I will serve you with good words and genuine; You go, I'll send you off with a smile, and then take a kind word, that's it; Such a business model is both decent and regular, and it has been passed down for thousands of years, why is it that now in this Jiankang City, it has become a different taste?

With this benevolent brother's face and style, not only his personality has fallen behind, but even the way of earning money has changed from eating by ability to working and begging for half, which is really annoying from the inside out. If the head of the Yaxing line of the three roads in the north - Qi Hui, seeing his virtue, he would have to be mad!

However, although I am very disgusted with this kind of unruly, skinless and faceless slut; But his mode of soliciting customers also gave Shen Guisheng a familiar feeling......

"Ahem! Our brothers have made an appointment today, so you don't need to make a noise here! ”

Qi Yan also hated this thief-eyed guy in his heart, and he didn't even look at him with a straight eye along the way; But people spit on themselves as if they hadn't seen it, and they didn't even leave a breathing air raid! Now looking far away along the shore, he has seen the huge archway of Xinghualou in the distance, and naturally he can't let him continue to follow him!

"Although Childe has friends here, there are many idlers on this street, where can the villain rest assured! At first glance, the two of them are the sons and daughters of high-ranking families who came out to play, I'm afraid they haven't met many people in the rivers and lakes, right? The villains in other places don't dare to talk nonsense, but in the few streets and alleys that come and go, there are more thieves! However, although the two sons can rest assured, if there is a villain to follow, no matter which thief is the leader, it will leave a little thin face for the villain! ”

His endless chatter can be regarded as completely annoying Qi Yan! Although there is an old saying in the world, it is said that if you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you are afraid of thieves. But this principle applies to anyone, but it is only on Qi Yan, which is a big nonsense!

If he doesn't steal from others, then it can be regarded as burning high incense!

"It's easy to talk about it, right? Do you have to force something bad out of our mouths? Boy, you heard me clearly! You definitely won't be able to earn this silver from our brothers! Don't hang around under our noses, fuck off! ”

After Qi Yan finished speaking, he angrily hit the folding fan in his hand, and viciously pointed the tip of the young man's nose with the head of the fan. Although this young man has a smart mouth, he is small and thin, and he has no capital to fight in the street. Of course, after all, he is also a person who begs for a living on the street, and looking at Shen Gui's strong and tall body, he will not find himself bored to go up and do it:

"Don't worry, two masters! Isn't it okay for the villain to go? But you see I've said so much all the way, my mouth is dry and my legs are tired, so the two of you also rewarded the villain with a pot of tea money, so that I can moisten my throat, right? Tease the monkey, you still have to throw a fruit pit, the two of you just think I'm a monkey, can't you? ”

Shen Gui, who has been silent, is now upset by his dead-faced appearance; At this time, he turned his head and looked at Qi Yan and frowned, which meant that he should be sent away quickly. And Qi Yan's face was red, and he was also annoyed by the other party, he raised his arms and was about to hit someone, and shouted loudly:

"Hey? You're not done yet, are you? Don't hit you today for a ......"

Don't look at this kid's obscene face, but he really has such a clever energy! As soon as he saw that Qi Yan was going to move seriously, he immediately jumped back a few steps away, knocking out a big hole in the crowd of people who were rubbing shoulders, attracting the curious eyes of many pedestrians:

"Hey, you two rich people from other places, don't you have a shame, right? The master took you to shop for a long time, and if you don't give you money, you still want to beat people? Okay, okay, you are two, I am one by myself, and I am not your opponent in terms of fighting! But if you two are men with seeds, don't slip away for a while, and when I bring someone back, let's practice a few hands! Before leaving, the master will give you another sentence: Although the lion head of this Xinghualou is delicious, be careful not to be blocked by it! ”

The boy shouted in his thin voice, and all the passers-by around him looked suddenly enlightened; But only the aunts and aunts who set up stalls around them, and the work of welcoming customers at the door of the store, did not even have anyone to watch the excitement.

If this kind of thing happens in Youbei Third Road or Yanjing City, there will definitely be a few decent people with high status or old age who will come out to make trouble! There are even a handful of descendants of the nobles of the former dynasty who have fallen down, and they specifically point to doing things for others to support their families! But now, although there are many pedestrians on the banks of the Qinhuai River, they are all just staring at Qi Yan and Shen Gui with wide eyes, and they don't even mumble a little!

Qi Yan is a snitch, and with so many eyes staring at him together, he immediately felt uncomfortable. Besides, it was still a reasonable thing, but he was made like this by himself, which made him a little embarrassed.

Shen Gui has seen a lot of such scoundrel plasters, and knows that as long as this kind of person is involved, there is nothing too good to deal with, and he has no intention of accusing Qi Yan, and even if he negotiates in person, he will not get a better result.

People are shameless, invincible in the world!

The two brothers exchanged a helpless look, then turned around and walked quickly towards Xinghualou; But as soon as he walked a few steps away, there was a buzz of talk behind him; The two of them already have excellent hearing, and they can clearly hear what those people are saying that they are rich and arrogant; But they came to Xinghualou this time to meet the three people, and it was really inconvenient to make extraneous branches; Since you are in a foreign land, let people point to your backbone and scold, so let's scold......

"Lads! Take a slow step! ”

Just when the two were halfway there, they were suddenly stopped by a lady standing at the mouth of the alley selling flowers; Seeing the two of them stop, she waved slightly to Shen Gui, and then moved out of the alley behind her, motioning for them to come in and speak.

The two of them looked left and right suspiciously, and then stepped forward:

"Auntie, you see, my brothers and I are all men, and we are carrying fragrant purses, and it is useless to ask you for this gardenia in smoked clothes......"

"I didn't call you two here to sell flowers, but to tell you a word. That bastard boy is always wandering on this street, and he knows a lot of bad people, so he is used to being domineering on weekdays. Seeing that although you two brothers have strong bones, they are also scholars after all, and it may be okay to beat him like that, but if he really hooks a few strong ones, he will suffer a big loss! Let's go, don't come back to this street again! ”

Shen Gui looked at the cautious eldest lady, and he had mixed feelings in his heart. He took out a small ingot of ten taels from his bosom and quietly put it in the hand of the eldest mother:

"Aunt Xing, the two of us listen to you. However, you have also spoken to our brothers, and it is inevitable that people will look at it, and this place is not very safe for your old man! In this way, this ingot of silver, when our brothers have wrapped the flowers, you can go home early to rest and rest for a few days! ”

After finishing speaking, Shen Gui and Qi Yan left this small alley, leaving only a flower seller who wanted to shout but didn't dare to shout......

As soon as the two of them walked to the door of Xinghualou, Qi Yan suddenly crossed his shoulders and pinned half of Shen Gui's body; Then he raised his hand to straighten the crown of his head, and conjured a money bag sewn of linen from his sleeve as if he were juggling, and shook it in front of Shen Gui's eyes:

"Brother, look! The peers here are really not particular about their work! A little boy just passed by you, and the sleeve of his right hand was obviously growing, didn't you see it? ”

After listening to Qi Yan's words, Shen Gui recalled slightly; Immediately after that, a little boy with a few pieces of chilblains on his face, about five or six years old, came to mind......

"It seems to be a little impressive, what? Could it be that he is a dwarf pretending? ”

"Not really. The boy was indeed five or six years old; If I'm not mistaken, he should have carried a small pair of scissors in the cuff he grows out, cutting the money bags of passers-by! ”
