Chapter Seventy-Eight: Eating Feelings (Part 1)
It is impossible to buy people, but Huo Bao is not hard-hearted.
It's a gesture for him, but it's a lifesaver for the family kneeling on the ground.
He took two taels of silver and gave it to Lao Cunzheng, and said, "This is what I lent to their family, no interest, when will they pay it back when they will be relieved!" ”
Lao Cun was stunned for a moment, then took the silver and sighed: "The young master is kind! ”
The family kneeling on the ground was still confused, and the little girl's tears were falling.
The man shuddered and kowtowed heavily.
Flesh and blood are separated, but where there is a way, who will be willing to give it?
Huo Bao glanced at the young man hiding behind the crowd and got into the carriage.
"It's cheaper!"
"I never thought there would be such a good thing!"
"This young master looks dark, but he acts kindly!"
"People are annoyed, and it's not a book, who will buy people back at will?"
The carriage "wheeled" and "wheeled" went away, leaving the gossip of the villagers behind.
Xue Xiao and Shui Jin both looked at Huo Bao and smiled.
"I thought Brother Bao couldn't wipe his face and accepted that little girl!" Shui Jin said with a smile.
"What's wrong with multiple girls? You and your fifth uncle should also have someone waiting for you. Xue Xiaodao.
"Two brothers, haven't you forgotten what we did this time? If you still have eyeliner in the back, you're not afraid? Huo Bao said helplessly.
"If you don't accept it, you won't accept it, you have given all the money, why are you still 'borrowing'? It's still more than 200 miles away from us, and you still hope to come back? "Water access channel.
"How can there be a pie in the world? If it is given in vain, it will hurt them. ”
“……”
Xue Xiao disagreed: "Brother Bao is soft-hearted!" ”
It's a person who can pretend, it's him who kills people without blinking, and he's the one who looks like a good old man in front of people.
Shui Jin nodded and said, "Or are you thoughtful, didn't you hurt them by giving it for nothing?" Not to mention that the people in the village will be angry, even if they have their own family, they have gained benefits for nothing, which may not be a blessing. ”
Huo Bao didn't say anything, thinking about the clever boy.
It was both an inquiry and an inquiry, and according to Li Yuan's words, it was here in the convoy, and the young man also came over and took a few turns.
If he hadn't known that he was the grandson of Lao Muramasa, Li Yuan would have asked someone to take it down a long time ago.
That boy just wants to help his friends find a way out? Or do you have other plans?
I was on a journey one day, and I used dry food at noon.
By dusk, the convoy was outside Qu'a County.
Although Huo Bao said before that the convoy would not enter the city, he did not really stop in the wilderness, but directly parked in the open space under the city wall.
Huo Bao thought about the looting of the homeless people he heard yesterday, and said to Li Yuan: "Pay attention to vigilance at night, if you can fight if you encounter the enemy, you can fight, and if you can't fight, run away, self-protection first!" ”
"Honorable Order!" Li Yuan held the hilt of the knife and replied with his chest straight.
Xue Xiao had already called two old fellows and brought the three of them into the city.
"Brother Bao told people to run if they can't fight, why didn't you want to run the day before yesterday? It's a desperate look! Xue Xiao said curiously
"The day before yesterday, the city gate was closed, and I ran away without a head or brain, so I couldn't say that I couldn't be 'caught in an urn'...... The foot shop is close to the city gate, and you can fight and retreat! Today they are outside the city, and it is okay to deal with the number one hundred and ten, and if they really want several times the hungry and red-eyed homeless people to come up, there is no need to sacrifice their lives. Huo Bao explained.
“……”
The group still chose an inn near the city gate to live.
Two upper rooms and one common room.
Huo Bao behaved steadily, the age was here, Shui Jin didn't worry about letting him have one room, just two people in one room, Xue Xiao in one room, and two guys who ran errands in an ordinary room.
Shui Jin knew the amount of Huo Bao's food, and was afraid that he would be hungry again, so he booked a room and beckoned everyone to go out to eat.
"Half of Maoshan is in Changning, half is in Qu'a, Qu'a has an old goose in Maoshan, Brother Shui Tongbao must taste it." Xue Xiao recommended: "There is also a crystal dish meat, which is Zhenjiang cuisine, which is not as authentic as Fucheng, and you can also try it." ”
Huo Bao was already hungry, so he swallowed his saliva when he heard it, but he didn't rush to eat, but took two silver cakes and handed them to the accompanying guys: "Buy some braised meat, and eat some food to add vegetables to people outside the city!" ”
This silver cake is not the kind of small one given to Lao Cunzheng before, one is ten taels of silver, and two is twenty taels.
The old man didn't answer immediately, but looked at Xue Xiao.
"Where is the silver used by Brother Bao? Before the men came out, they took money from the counter, and threw it away as much as they could. Xue Xiao said busily.
"'Brothers, settle accounts', one by one." Huo Bao insisted.
Xue Xiao couldn't help it, so he nodded and let the old man take it, and said, "Add another forty taels, count me as Brother Shui." ”
When the old man heard this, he took the silver, but he hesitated: "Buy braised meat?" ”
Xue Xiaogang was about to nod, Huo Bao said: "According to the amount of one person and a half catty, a few more catties will be rich!" The rest of the silver, let's talk about it later! ”
This is the rich and comfortable Jiangnan, and the price of goods will not be much different from Jinling.
One tael of silver can buy twenty or thirty catties of braised meat, and sixty taels of silver can buy braised meat, at least a thousand catties, not to mention whether a county can have so much braised meat, even if there is, more than 100 people outside can't eat it all.
It's this kind of weather again, I can't hold it, and if I buy it, it's ruined.
Xue Xiao is Xue Biao's adopted son, and he is used to reading account books, but he didn't expect this stubble for a while.
When he reacted, he found that something was wrong, and said, "Brotherhood of Treasures?" ”
Huo Bao nodded: "I understand a little!" ”
It was a compulsory course in my previous life, and it was strange if I didn't understand it.
Xue Xiao laughed twice, and said: "I just look forward to stopping and eating a meal today, don't be like Changning County, which makes people unhappy." ”
The two of them seem to be in the next big game of chess!
It's a military book and a math, who teaches children like this?
Didn't these two men prepare to rebel in the first few years?
Qu'a County is 90 miles away from Changning County, but the scene is very different, the street pedestrians are weaving, shouting and selling.
In the streets and alleys, there are occasional beggars, all of whom are old, weak, sick and disabled, and there is no situation where strong beggars in Changning County are in groups and wandering all over the streets.
The shops on both sides of the shopping street are also lively.
In a large restaurant and restaurant, the voice of welcoming guests is very loud.
The smiles on the faces of the guests do not seem to be fake.
"Our Quyang County was so lively before!" Shui Jin sighed.
"That's how it should be!" Xue Xiaodao.
"This is the scene of peace, my parents here are a capable official!" Huo Bao praised
“……”
Xue Xiao and Shui Jin looked at Huo Bao together.
"Hehe, Brother Bao is really worried about the country and the people!"
"Who did you learn to talk to? Listen to the old man! The sky is falling, the tall man is on top, Brother Bao don't have to worry about this idleness, it's still important to find a restaurant to eat! ”
Huo Bao glanced at Xue Xiao, who was smiling without smiling with his eyelids, and then looked at Shui Jin, who was touching his stomach and his nose twitching and smelling the fragrance, and sighed in his heart.
One of these two people is a businessman who has limited his horizons, and the other is lazy and doesn't like to use his brain.
Don't look at the two of them now in the rebel camp, I'm afraid that the two of them haven't thought about anything in their hearts at all, but they just go with the flow and get by.
With Xue Xiao's recommendation, the three of them entered the largest restaurant.
It is the meal, and the lobby is made eighty percent.
Huo Bao's meal was placed here, and he had no intention of "grandstanding" in public, so he asked for a private room.
Xue Xiao's "Maoshan Old Goose" and "Crystal Meat" mentioned before were doubled, as well as local delicacies "Yanling Duck Dumplings" and "Maoxi Dried Tofu", four side dishes, sweet and sour radish, scallion oil broad beans, cold sesame leaves, and tender blanched daylily.
"Maoshan Old Goose" is a stew, a ceramic pot, one is a goose, three catties to weigh, two geese down, a lot of meat dishes.
Anything else, when it comes to "Maoxi tofu", it is slightly similar to the stinky tofu of Changsha in later generations, but there is no chili seasoning, which is somewhat insufficient.
Huo Bao sandwiched a piece, one bite at a time, and ate it with feelings.
Xue Xiao and Shui Jin pouted when they saw it, and they disliked it when this dish was served.
However, Huo Bao ate seriously, like a delicacy, and the two of them looked greedy, and couldn't help but stretch out their chopsticks.
Xue Xiao bit a little, and put it down with a look of disgust.
Shui Jin threw a piece in his mouth, chewed it a few times, and said: "It smells stinky, and it's okay to eat, but it's not as fragrant as meat!" ”
Huo Bao just remembered his previous life, and he tasted a piece and it was complete, and the chopsticks went to stew the old goose.
Xue Xiao was disgusted by the smell in his mouth, lost his appetite, and slandered Huo Bao for free, and ate something that was not delicious, so he had to fool everyone to take a bite with him.
This is what you think about too much, and if you look at others, you will be a thief.
