Chapter 42

The lively scene in Sijiu City has always been a rush. Yesterday, there was just a scene of guns being fired and the hall was scattered, and at noon today, a notice was posted by the patrol police station -- three days later, Qiao, the leader of the big money pot gang, would be executed in public on the Zhushikou Street!

Since the Qing Dynasty, as long as the bell and soul chasing cannon sound at the entrance of the vegetable market, the lively people can block eight streets. If you happen to bump into the beheaded prisoner or a well-known figure in the streets, all the shops passing by the prisoner car must prepare incense and wine, and wait for the death row prisoner who will be beheaded immediately to eat and drink, which can be regarded as a good fate on the Yin and Yang Road!

Although the name of the country has now been changed to the Republic of China, and the killing of the head in the vegetable market has long been replaced by shooting and hanging, the habit of the gentlemen in Sijiu City who likes to watch the killing of the head has not changed.

From the time the notice at the patrol police station was posted, the restaurant and teahouse on Zhushikouer Street where you could see the execution scene had been ordered for a long time. Even in the surrounding houses, there are people who inquire to see if they can go to the upstairs window to see the scene of the murder - naturally they will not look at it in vain, and a piece of the ocean will buy a place where they can stand!

If you want to talk about the other party who can see the lively scene most clearly, it must be regarded as the house at the main gate of the fire on Zhushikou Street!

Regardless of the large windows of the two-story watchtower on the face of the street door, even the ditch behind the cornices was renovated with a lot of effort. The green bricks are densely built, the ash is finely plastered, three feet wide and two feet long, and there is a row of waist-high carved railings in front of it.

Since the notice at the patrol police station was posted, the newly replaced ironwood threshold at the entrance of the main gate of the fire has almost been stepped on by three points. The lively gentlemen from all walks of life are looking for the head of the fire to make friends one after another, all thinking that they can occupy a piece of territory in this most lively place.

And Na Jiu Ye was also polite, beckoning the gentlemen who came to set friendships into the courtyard of the second into the clean room on the tea ceremony, and waited for the men who came to the door to either twist and pinch, or straight to the point and say that they wanted to occupy a piece of land to see the excitement, Na Jiu Ye then opened his mouth with a sigh of teeth: "It's not that I don't talk about friendship, but there are many people in the main gate of the fire, and the people in my own family have no place to watch the excitement!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the gentlemen who came to the door to set friendships almost drooped their faces!

The house at the entrance of the main gate of the fire is three inside and out, and it is a small two hundred people who can live in it. But in the main gate of the fire, from the head of the ninth master to the newly weaned child in Xie Menshen's house, there are less than twenty people.

Just these people, can occupy all the places where you can see the excitement on the face of the main gate of the fire?

Seeing that the gentlemen who came to the door to make friends had an unhappy appearance, they didn't need to speak to the ninth master, and the leopard who was waiting on the side left and picked up the conversation with a smile - there are really not many people in the main gate of the fire, but they can't stand the main gate of the fire, there are already players who come and go all year round, and they are all good players who serve all kinds of things in Sijiu City. The people in the main gate of the fire, they are all counting on people to eat!

The characters who can come to the door to find Na Jiu Ye to make friends with each other are more or less the masters who have been familiar with Na Jiu Ye at the Autumn Insect Meeting in previous years. As soon as I heard that there were other good players in Sijiu City who were serving all kinds of things, this curiosity and desire to win immediately rushed up!

After a closer inquiry, the patrons who couldn't afford to offend in the main gate of the fire were actually the big fence Liba, the big teapot in the Bada Hutong who sent towel handles, and these gentlemen who came to the door to make friends couldn't sit still - just this way, dare to say that they are good at serving things in Sijiu City?!

What is it like to look down on people?

Seeing the appearance of these gentlemen who came to the door to make friends, Xiang Youbao was not in a hurry or annoyed, but just reached out and took out a thumb-sized wooden sign wearing a red rope from the coat and put it on the table - it's really not that I look down on you, but people spent money to buy the gadgets in the main gate of the fire! With this thing, the gentlemen who come to train the stuff together, then it will be the turn of the people to come first! If you really like all the things that are waiting for you in the main gate of the fire, then you have to pick them first!

――Isn't it just a brand of wood that you paid for? The master is not short of money, so he will still give him a piece!

-- This brand can be divided into three, six, nine and so on, and the bottom one of the first-class wood has been sold out, and now the remaining bronze and jade brands are a bit expensive!

- Expensive? Can it be more expensive than the dragon robe on the emperor of the Qing Dynasty? If not, Ma Yuer will give you a piece!

- Gotcha! The patron sign in the main gate of this fire, let's not mention the benefits next to it, just the lively one you want to see in three days, there is no side, inside the second-floor watchtower, you have to prepare a Taishi chair!

For two days in a row, when the men who came and went in the main gate of the fire hall walked out of the gate of the main gate of the fire gate, they almost all held such a bronze plaque engraved with the pattern of animal teeth in their hands. There are those who are more exquisite, and even hang a jade plaque engraved with animal teeth in the place where the small eight pieces are hung under the horse coat!

At the time of the lamp, Hu Qianli, who was sitting in the courtyard of the second entrance of the main entrance of the fire, pulled the abacus beads, and from time to time wrote a few words on a brand-new account book with a wolf pen sandwiched between his fingers. After almost half an hour of being busy, Fang raised his head and said to Na Jiuye, who was facing him with an expectant look: "Today's accounts are also understood, if you count them together with yesterday's accounts, in the past two days, more than 400 second-class bronze brands have been sold, and 100 yuan less than 100 first-class jade brands have also been sold." According to this calculation, after removing all the picks and deducting the oceans thrown out two days ago, we can have 5,000 oceans of input! ”

With round eyes, Na Jiuye's face was full of disbelief, and he said in a hoarse voice: "Can you have so much money?!" Senior Brother Hu, don't you make a mistake in the accounts? ”

Putting the wolf pen on a pen stand made of green tile stone, Hu Qianli stretched out his hand and patted the account book: "I don't dare to show off the work next to my brother, even if I don't hide the account, my brother said, in the past few years, I can't support my family by catching yellow skins, and I still have a lot of work to settle accounts in shops!" If you really want to elaborate, the year-end accounts of several time-honored brands in Sijiu City are all calculated by my junior brother! ”

Hehe chuckled, Xiang Youbao reached out and took out a few bronze plaques from his arms and threw them on the table: "Ming'er is noon is the excitement of cutting off Qiao on the street, taking advantage of the early morning, we should also pull the flag and set off the cannon at the main entrance of the fire gate, and poke the flag out of the hall!" ”

Twisting his face and looking at Xiang Youbao, who had been busy turning out the patron signs in the main gate of the fire in the past few days, Na Jiuye hesitated and said, "Just Ming'er?" Whether I have to find someone to count a good life will say, I'm still not sure in my heart! Although in the past two days, a lot of the patron brands in our Huozheng Gate have been sold, but this patron brand must be sold out on the day when it is sold out, right? When the time comes."

Without waiting for Na Jiu Ye to finish speaking, Xiang Youbao had already interrupted Na Jiu Ye's words with a firm face: "When the time comes, the players who bought the patron brand, how can they not let the brand they bought with money be idle, right?" Uncle Shi, take a look, tomorrow we will officially stamp the banner at the entrance of the main gate of the fire, and within three months, the ironwood threshold in front of our hall will have to be replaced with a new one! ”

Nodding slightly, Hu Qianli's face, which had been stiff all year round, showed a rare smile: "That's the truth!" Those players who bought the patron brand of Huo Zhengmen will always think that the money will be worth the money! When the time comes, the gadgets are delivered to us, and then we see those gadgets being served by us, and then we won't be able to come to the door again in the future! ”

pulled a chair, Xiang Youbao made it to the edge of the table, and happily picked up Hu Qianli's words: "Then let's hurry up and poke the flag early tomorrow morning!" In front of so many people who watched the excitement, didn't these people who bought our patron brand want this majestic and decent style that we politely welcomed in? ”

Nodding heavily, Na Jiu Ye turned around and walked outside the house: "Then I'll take advantage of the fact that it's still early, and hurry up to prepare some things for tomorrow morning."

grabbed Na Jiuye's arm, and Xiang Youbao dragged Na Jiuye to sit on the chair next to him: "It's all ready for a long time - the 10,000 whips of the Nanshikou artillery battle Qi family, the loudspeaker team at the overpass, and the surrounding neighbors, have also come to the door to send the disturbing snacks!" ”

After counting with his fingers, Na Jiuye nodded with satisfaction: "It's okay, it's a person who can do things!" ”

Very mysteriously, he grabbed a cloth bag from the chair behind him, and Xiang Youbao raised his hand and put the cloth bag in front of Na Jiuye: "And this, you have to wear it tomorrow!" ”

Looking at the pretending to be a mysterious leopard with some doubts, Na Jiu Ye untied the slipknot on the cloth baggage, and muttered, "What kind of moth is this, you unlucky child?" ”

As the slipknot on the cloth burden was untied, a set of Tuanhua Southern Silk Horse Jacket was suddenly revealed in front of Na Jiuye's eyes. Looking at the new cloth shoes resting on the Tuanhua Southern Silk Horse Jacket, Na Jiuye suddenly whispered in surprise: "Good guy Ruifuxiang's clothes and inline shoes, you got them all for me?!" How much does it cost?"

straightened his face, and said solemnly to Na Jiuye, who was full of surprise: "Not only you, uncle, but all the uncles in the main gate of the fire have two sets of such clothes!" Don't forget, now you are the head of the Huozheng Gate, and all of you are also worshipping in the town of Huozhengmen. If you don't have a few good clothes that can fill the scene in front of people, aren't you afraid that people will underestimate the formation in the main gate of the fire? ”

Looking at Hu Qianli, who had already nodded his head frequently, Xiang Youbao raised his hand and stuffed two walnuts that he had bought out of nowhere into the palm of Na Jiuye's hand: "You still have to remember to hold these two things in your hands often, and take them out to play when chatting with people!" From now on, you and a few uncles can't easily accept those players who come to the door to adjust their toys, and you have to wait for me to pass your eyes before you can come out! ”

"Why is that?"

"You play chess, have you ever seen a veteran walk around the camp?"

"There is such a matter, I have to tell a few uncles first"

Looking from the courtyard at the entrance of the main entrance of the fire, in the room where Na Jiuye and the others were sitting, the lights shook the shadows of people on the window paper, and when they saw it, they felt that there was vitality in this big house.

Leaning on Nalan's body, after eating a few pairs of Chinese medicine, and her body and bones were a little better, the daughter-in-law of Xie Men God looked at the swaying figure on the window paper, and sighed lowly: "Alas, I haven't seen so many people together in many years!" ”

Carefully supporting the daughter-in-law of Xie Men, Nalan also nodded slightly: "The people in the main gate of the fire have finally saved up again!" ”

In the quiet night, the two did not speak again, but quietly snuggled up to each other, looking at the men who belonged to them, looking at the home that belonged to them
