Chapter 2 Business Visits

[The first day of the new book opened, many friends supported me, thank you very much~~ Since there is no essence in the upload of the new book, I have to owe it temporarily. I will make up for you next week with the essence! 】.

Fortunately, there are still a lot of remnants of this life in his mind, otherwise Chu Tianya would definitely be lost when he walked in Taiyuan City, which has hundreds of T-shaped streets. After crossing a stone-staired overpass is Chu Tianya's own home, and there are many vendors selling noodles and snacks under the bridge, and Chu Tianya is ready to buy some food there.

Seeing a stall owner selling cooking cakes with a short stature shouting loudly, Chu Tianya suddenly remembered "Wu Dalang", and couldn't help but feel a little more relieved in his heart, which made his dull mood a little lighter. So he stepped forward and said, "Two biscuits." ”

The stall owner's face changed when he saw Chu Tianya coming over, and he hurriedly wrapped two cooking cakes and stuffed them for Chu Tianya.

Chu Tianya took a bite, it was quite sweet, so he said, "How much?" ”

"What are you talking about? Just two cookcakes were eaten and eaten, what is it worth! The stall owner said very affectionately.

Chu Tianya blinked, "Aren't you doing business, eating for nothing, not for money?" ”

"These two cooking cakes are for the Taibao to eat, which is their blessing! Hey, hey, hey! The stall owner smiled with a smile on his face, rubbed his hands, and said nervously, "No money, no money!" ”

Chu Tianya's heart was blocked, it must have been that Chu Tianya used to eat overlord meals in this area, so he said: "I don't owe you this time, let's say, how much?." ”

"No, no...... I really don't need money! "The stall owner is completely panicked! I kept muttering in my heart, "What's the matter today, Taibao also has to pay for cooking cakes?" You can't make any of your plans with me, do you? ”

Chu Tianya really couldn't cry or laugh, and glared at him angrily, "If you don't say it, I'll go to your family's Golden Lotus...... Oh, tear down your stall! ”

"Woo! …… Tai Bao spares his life! Where is there a 'golden' lotus on the four walls of my house! The stall owner was frightened, and actually knelt down on one knee, kowtowed with a bang, and kept shouting, "The little one didn't dare to offend the Taibao recently!" The money of the past should also be offered, and I don't owe half a penny! The Taibao will spare me! I really don't have a golden lotus in my house! ”

This commotion alarmed the people nearby to come and watch. Chu Tianya never expected this stall owner to be so unfrightened, and now he felt a little embarrassed, and hurriedly said: "Go away, go away, I'm just joking with him!" ”

It can be seen that these people are usually quite afraid of Chu Tianya, and when they heard what he said, they all dispersed.

The owner of the stall was frightened, still kowtowing on the ground, and still had tears and snot. At this moment, a person approached from the crowd that was gradually dispersing.

He was a young man dressed as a scholar, wearing a cross-legged head, a half-worn straight dress that had been washed and white, a red silk hanging jade belt around his waist, and a black fracture fan in his hand. looks good, but the eyebrows are sparse and the starry eyes are bright, the thin skin and white face are gentle and elegant, not short but skinny, and the straight-embellished robe on the body flutters left and right with the wind.

stepped forward, the skinny man knelt on the ground with a fan and said, "You stupid man is not stubborn, but you don't want to give you money, don't you have to make Taibao angry?" ”

Turning his head, he held the fan again and arched his hand to Chu Tianya, and said with a smile on his face: "Tai Baoxiu wants to be as knowledgeable as this idiot, and how about going to the Star Tower with Xiaosheng for a few drinks?" ”

Chu Tianya looked him up and down, but he didn't know him. It is estimated that it is Chu Tianya's old acquaintance before. He was afraid that he was wearing the jaw and just wanted to get out of it, so he made a look of residual anger, and snorted: "It's okay, I'm too lazy to bother with him." I'll go with you to have some wine." ”

Fortunately, the two people in the past and present lives are "soul fusion", so Chu Tianya's speech and demeanor are also natural, and he will not be exposed from time to time.

"It's too refreshing." The skinny man smiled slightly, threw a few copper coins in front of the stall owner, and said, "Taibao, please!" ”

Chu Tianya, who is in charge of criminal investigation, has so sharp eyes. When the skinny man smiled, there was clearly a trace of "the plan succeeded" on his face, and the smug look was fleeting. Out of professional habits, he suddenly became alert in his heart, and said secretly: This person is looking for me, I'm afraid it's not just as simple as drinking!

The two of them got on the overpass and went to the Star Picking Tower. The owner of the stall who sold the cooking cakes picked up a few copper coins on the ground, provoked the stall and fled like crazy. Chu Tianya glanced back at him, and he couldn't laugh or cry.

Picking the star building, located in the most prosperous Tang Mingzheng Street in Taiyuan City, both sides of the street are full of wine shops, canteens and brothels, not to mention the people coming and going during the day, the "night market" after night is more lively and extraordinary. From morning to night, the crowd surges, men, women and children rub shoulders one after another, a peaceful and prosperous scene of living and working in peace and contentment.

The two entered the Star Picking Tower and found a private room to sit down. Dr. Cha Fan came up to serve and asked what kind of wine and rice he wanted, but the skinny man didn't order any food, but said, "You can only bring the Baiwei soup, but you want good wine." Xiao Er's face suddenly turned happy, and he also sang a long promise - "Pingge distinguished guests, Baiwei soup; Fenkang Huadiao, the best wine"!

Then, he thanked him and left.

Chu Tianya was an invited guest, but he didn't look at it quietly, but what he saw in front of him made him feel quite fresh.

The two of them each drank a cup of tea, and the skinny man opened the black fracture fan and shook it gently on his chest, looked at Chu Tianya with a smile, and said, "I have heard the name of the Taibao of Longcheng for a long time, and Xiaosheng has admired it for a long time. Seeing you today is enough to comfort your life! ”

When Chu Tianya heard this, he dared to feel that he didn't know Chu Tianya before, so he said, "What do you call Your Excellency?" ”

The skinny man smiled and accepted the folding fan, and arched his hand: "The surname is white, the name is cheap, the small character is respectful and humble, and he was born in the fourth place in the family of the big name." ”

"It turned out to be Fourth Brother Bai." Chu Tianya bowed back and waited for his next words.

The men of the Great Song Dynasty used to refer to each other as "elder brother", and even the brothers of the same mother in the family, the elder brother was not called "second brother", but "second brother".

"Today, Xiaosheng deliberately bothered the Taibao, firstly, he came here, and secondly, he was a little tedious, and he dared to help the Taibao." After saying that, he took out two ingots of yellow and clear gold and placed them in the center of the wine table.

Chu Tianya glanced at it, thinking that this white hand was extremely generous. These two ingots of gold are estimated to be worth half a year's living expenses of a middle-class family.

"Fourth Brother Bai is so generous, I don't know what you want me to do for you?" Chu Tianya didn't go to get the gold, but just smiled and said, "I'm just a prison city errand, and I can't do anything big." ”

"Taibao is too humble. Everyone knows that on the land of Dragon City, there is nothing that 'Dragon City Taibao' can't do. Bai Xu seemed to smile with confidence, gently shook the folding fan and said, "Don't dare to hide it from the Taibao, Xiaosheng has a distant relative, a few days ago he was drunk and lost his nature, made trouble in Taiyuan Mansion, and was caught by mistake for a while, and was trapped in the camp. Xiaosheng didn't dare to ask the Taibao too much, but only begged the Taibao to take care of him a little bit, and let him suffer too much in prison. ”

Chu Tianya picked the corner of his mouth and smiled faintly, thinking that this was probably Chu Tianya's usual "way to make money". This can earn a huge amount of money with this effort, no wonder he is not short of money when he usually eats, drinks, prostitutes, and gambles. It's just that this Bai Xu is too generous, presumably his "distant relative" is not a trivial matter!

So Chu Tianya asked, "Fourth Brother Bai, who is the surname of your relatives, and what is the reason why you are detained in the camp?" ”

Bai Xu's eyebrows sank slightly, leaned forward, and while pushing the gold in front of Chu Tianya, he lowered his voice and whispered: "His surname is Xue, and his name is jade!" ”

"Xue Yu? Taihang Jukou, drunk knife king Xue Yu? Chu Tianya was slightly surprised, just now Jiang Laosan came to report that there was a new criminal, wasn't it him?

It seems that he is really a "fat master", he goes to prison in the morning, and someone spends a lot of money to open up the joints in the afternoon!

"Taibao don't have to be nervous." Bai Xu's expression was calm, and he said, "Xiao Sheng just asked the Taibao to take care of him in prison, and he didn't think about anything else." Don't dare to implicate any of the Taibao. ”

Chu Tianya laughed when he heard it, this is obviously trying to cover up!

That Xue Yu is called "Taihang Jukou", presumably a repeat offender of the imperial court. At present, this Bai Xu is acting secretively and preparedly, most of them are not "distant relatives", maybe he is also a member of the Taihang giant.

It seems that these taels of gold are not easy to earn, and if you don't get it right, you will be accused of being an "accomplice of thieves", which will cost you your head.

Moreover, Chu Tianya had no intention of making this kind of money again.

"Why is Taibao laughing?" Bai Xu couldn't help but look puzzled, thinking that Chu Tianya didn't think he had enough money, so he took out a gold ingot and put it together, "Taibao has something to say, how about speaking bluntly?" ”

At this moment, Dr. Nanafan outside sang the promise to the Accord. Chu Tianya said, "You put away the gold first." ”

Bai Xu suddenly looked surprised, but without saying much, he put away the three gold ingots. Dr. Caifan asked An to come to the pavilion, and first offered a few sweets such as ginkgo biloba and pears and candy, and also took a few blue and white wine jugs, and asked the two of them to choose wine.

Chu Tianya didn't understand this middle market, so he shirked it, and asked Bai Xu to pick two bottles of authentic Longcheng Fenjiu. The wine of the Great Song Dynasty is not cheap, and these two pots of "authentic Longcheng Fen wine" are enough for half a month's food for a family.

Soon, several tea and rice doctors interspersed into the Accord, and presented more than a dozen dishes before and after, such as "golden silk belly soup" and "cassia pocket" and other famous dishes, all in one. In the end, the doctor also said that this is only the first seat, and the "Barilla Soup" in our restaurant is worthy of its name. If you don't like it at all, or if the food is cold, change it to a new one immediately until you have 100 dishes that are not the same.

Chu Tianya couldn't help but secretly speak, wine is a famous wine, and the food is a good dish. This table full of wine and food is enough for a dozen strong men to eat, and it has to be changed from time to time...... The Great Song Dynasty is really rich, and the people also enjoy luxury!

And the dishes of the Great Song Dynasty are not only green and natural, but also taste quite good. However, as the saying goes, eating people with soft mouths and short hands is short, at first Chu Tianya only thought that Bai Xu was "his friend", so he came to the restaurant with him. Now that he knows that he has other plans, he has more eyes out of professional habits, first, to prevent him from being drugged in the dish, and second, to prevent himself from getting drunk and making mistakes, so he eats this meal carefully.

Bai Xu saw that Chu Tianya's chopsticks were not diligent, and knew that he was wary, so he smiled and said: "Actually, Taibao doesn't have to be too suspicious, I don't have any bad intentions." ”

Chu Tianya smiled slightly, "Everyone knows that Xue Yu is a Taihang giant, and the stakes are heavy, so I have to be cautious." It's just that I haven't returned to the prison city today, and I don't know why he was arrested this time. ”

Bai Xu was calm, shaking his fan and said unhurriedly: "Indeed, most of the people in Taiyuan know that there is a group of good men who hoe the strong and help the weak and fight against the border cowards on the Qixing Peak of Taihang Mountain. Xue Yu, the king of drunken swords, is the leader who sat in the third position. A few days ago, he went down the mountain to Taiyuan Mansion to do some private affairs, but unexpectedly got drunk and clashed with a few splashes who took the initiative to provoke. When the yacha arrived, someone recognized him, and while he was drunk and unarmed, they rushed up and tied him up. ”

Chu Tianya has been doing criminal investigation for so many years, and his mind has always been meticulous and keen, and he deliberately avoided the truth when he listened to his words, obviously covering up something. So he asked: "Since he is a good man in the Wuthering Mountains and Forests, he must have been hunted down by the government." This time, he took the risk to sneak into Taiyuan Cityβ€”just say, what is he here for? ”

Chu Tianya's words hit the nail on the head, Bai Xu's face suddenly changed slightly, and his mouth squeaked, "This ...... Xiaosheng, I don't know! ”

"Do you not know, or do you not want to say?" Chu Tianya smiled coldly and said, "Since you can't trust me, why are you looking for me to help?" You don't tell me the truth, how is it worth it for me to help you and save my life in vain? ”

After saying that, Chu Tianya got up and prepared to leave.

At this moment, the door that had been closed suddenly opened, and a person rushed in like a wind outside. The speed was so fast that Chu Tianya thought he was dazzled. I only felt that a figure was coming with murderous aura, and with his instinctive reaction, he staggered and flashed, and a cold light grazed his neck!
