Chapter 255: Estuary Turmoil
readx;?Feng' County to Xuzhou, passing through Pei' County, however, it is not the county seat, but one of its small towns. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The town is named Hekou because it is at the confluence of the Dasha River and the canal, hence the name.
Gao Feng had been running on a horse for an hour, and seeing that Feng Xiaomo had not yet chased after him, he had just reached the mouth of the river in front of him, so he slowed down.
Horse racing is just a pastime, and it is only natural to enjoy the world's customs, since you come to this quaint town, you naturally want to see it.
With this in mind, Gao Feng drove his horse slowly and slowly galloped into the town.
The town is not big, but it is very quiet, a stone road passes through the town, there are houses on both sides, people come and go are not in a hurry, it can be seen that the people here live very comfortably.
Gao Feng came to the town and saw that there was a teahouse in front of him, so he stopped here, he wanted to go in and drink a bowl of tea, and by the way, he waited for Feng Xiaomo to them.
Gao Feng turned over and dismounted, the man came out, handed the horse to the man, Gao Feng told him to take care of the horses, and entered the teahouse.
There weren't many guests in the teahouse, a young man and a woman on the left, and a strong man on the right, all three carrying parcels, which should be passing guests.
Gao Feng found a window seat and sat down. Xiao Er came up quickly, and Gao Feng threw away a few copper plates and ordered a pot of tea.
Pour a bowl, peak thirsty, take the tea and drink it all.
Looking out of the window, I still couldn't see Feng Xiaomo's figure, I don't know if she gave up the game or really couldn't catch up. Gao Feng secretly smiled bitterly, this time he provoked this girl again, I don't know if she will have any strange ideas next.
Pouring a bowl again, Gao Feng drank it slowly, but said in his heart, there is a benefit to running first, at least you can drink tea comfortably.
The bamboo curtain opened, and a rickety body walked in slowly. This is an old man, his face is yellow and thin, and he is haggard, as if he has not eaten a full meal for many days.
The old man came in, and instead of looking for a seat to sit down, he walked over to the young man and woman. Gao Feng didn't know what he meant, he was curious, but he saw the old man stretching out his hand to the two of them, and muttered: "Good man, pitiful, pitiful." ”
It turned out to be a beggar, and Gao Feng was moved by compassion, but he didn't move.
The two young men and women seemed to be accustomed to such things, and they turned a blind eye to the old man, and only bowed their heads and chatted.
It was boring, and the old man left the table stupidly and came to the strong man again. "Good people, pathetic, pathetic."
The strong man did not hesitate, he took out a large handful of copper plates and a silver ingot of ten taels from his body. After thinking about it, he put the silver ingot into his arms again, and pushed the copper plate to the old man.
is a bold person, Gao Feng couldn't help nodding in approval, looking at his situation, there should be not much silver, otherwise the ingot of silver will be given away.
Got so many copper plates, the old man was very grateful.
The strong man was a little impatient and shouted, "What are you talking about, go quickly." ”
turned out to be an anxious person, and he didn't let Xie after paying the money, he was simply a model of doing good deeds without leaving a name. Gao Feng paid attention to this person.
After being reprimanded, the old man panicked, hurriedly left the table, saw that there was still one person in the store, and came to Gao Feng.
Before the old man could speak, Gao Feng had already taken out two taels of silver and handed them to him, and advised: "Old man, put the money away." ”
Two taels of silver for the old man, can live a year or two, Gao Feng didn't think about giving him too much, just such an old man, more money is a bad thing, if you don't get it right, it will attract coveting, then the gain outweighs the loss.
The old man took the money in his hand, and he was so excited that he burst into tears, if it wasn't for Gao Feng grabbing him, he would have fallen to his knees on the spot.
Gao Feng persuaded the old man to go back, not wanting his actions to attract the attention of the strong man.
"Come here, old man." The strong man shouted.
Gao Feng wondered in his heart, he didn't know what the strong man wanted, so he observed it attentively.
The old man had no choice but to come to the strong man again, "Please give me orders." ”
The strong man turned a deaf ear to the old man's words, he squinted at Gao Feng, gritted his teeth, took out the silver ingot from his arms, and then shouted: "Xiao Er, change money." ”
Seeing this, Gao Feng almost burst into laughter. There is such a living treasure, and there is a comparison to do good deeds, I really don't know if he is in this heart, or he refuses to admit defeat, no matter which point, it shows that this person has a frank temperament and is a good person.
Xiao Er ran out and took the silver ingot from the strong man's hand, and soon exchanged it for a pile of bits and pieces of silver.
The strong man checked the size of the silver, took out a piece of silver of about three taels and handed it to the old man, but his eyes involuntarily skimmed the peak, and the meaning was obvious, the master paid more than you.
The old man panicked and didn't dare to take it, but the strong man was impatient, so he shoved it into his hand and waved him away.
Provocation, it is simply a **** naked provocation, and Gao Feng was aroused. Feng Xiaomo provoked him, but he didn't catch up until now, there were still people who dared to provoke, and it was his strength that provoked, Gao Feng couldn't help shouting: "Old man, come here." ”
was shouted by the two of them in a row, and the old man was a little dazed, and he came to the peak without obeying the call.
Gao Feng took out a large silver ingot of ten taels from his body and handed it to the old man, and told again: "Put the money away." ”
After saying this, he also squinted at the strong man, as if to say, what you have is money, and you can pay it again.
"You—" Stimulated, the strong man stood up suddenly, his angry eyes towards the peak, and he stopped talking, but when his hand reached into his bosom, he sat down depressedly.
Gao Feng's money was just right, just on the seven inches of the strong man, and the strong man couldn't compare to him even if he took out all the money on his body, obviously he lost.
This is also that Gao Feng is not black enough, otherwise, as long as he takes out five taels, he will definitely take out the strong man's body.
This matter seems to be nonsensical, but it also cheapens the old man, the two of them pay more than one by one, so that he benefits more than a dozen taels, this money is a huge amount for him, if he says it outside, no one will believe it.
The old man held the money in both hands, his lips trembled, he didn't know what to do, he didn't dare to return the money, he didn't dare to accept it, he had to aim his eyes at the more amiable peak.
Gao Feng saw the old man's thoughts, and was about to step forward to comfort him, but saw the bamboo curtain open again.
A young boy swarmed in, followed by four or five attendants. The young boy is dressed in brocade and jade, and he looks like a small group, just looking at his form, he knows that he is not a good bird.
Gao Feng pondered here, but the old man over there changed color, and he hurriedly put the silver in his hand into his arms, but it was too late.
"The old immortal, who has money and doesn't want to repay his debts, still dares to hide it privately? See that I don't break your legs. The young man found the old man, smiled at the corner of his mouth, and after saying viciously, he beckoned his subordinates to do it.
Hearing the order, the two subordinates behind him quickly went up and snatched them towards the old man's hands.
The old man was in a hurry, holding on to the money and not letting go, and shouted: "Young Master Yang, your money has already been paid off, you can't fool people!" ”
The young man ignored it and continued to instigate his subordinates.
"Stop." At this moment, two powerful shouts came. (To be continued.) )
