Wang Shichong smiled and waved his hand: "I'm really a little embarrassed to take advantage of the shopkeeper, don't look at me with a bearded face, but I am a citizen of the Great Sui, but my grandfather's generation moved to the Central Plains." ”

The fat shopkeeper's eyes widened, he looked Wang Shichong up and down carefully, and said with a smile: "No wonder the guest official will go with this Han man, it turns out that you are not a pure person from the Western Regions." This is a bit interesting, I have lived in this Luoyang City for more than 40 years, and it is the first time I have seen our Sui Dynasty people with a Western Regions face. ”

Wang Shichong nodded: "Luoyang is located in the Central Plains, there were few Hu merchants who came here before, and the original capital of the Great Sui has always been Daxing, so there are not many Guanlong families who come here, no wonder the shopkeeper rarely sees this kind of Sui Dynasty people with a Hu face, in fact, in the area of Guanzhong Longyou, there are many people like me who have a Hu face, and they are all three or four generations of ancestors who moved to the Central Plains. ”

The fat shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief: "So that's the case, seeing that the guest officer talks well, and wears such good clothes, he thinks that he is either rich or expensive, either a wealthy businessman or an official master." ”

Wang Shichong smiled slightly: "It's just a small deal, it's not the same as you think, the meeting in Pingshui is fate, and there is no need to find the root cause, do you say yes?" Liang shopkeeper? ”

The fat shopkeeper laughed: "The guest officer is very right. Come, for today's fateful reunion, I will invite the two of you to drink a few bowls of sour plum juice. ”

Wang Shichong smiled and drank another bowl, according to the marginal decreasing effect. This bowl feels far less cool and refreshing than the previous one. But it still made his teeth and cheeks fragrant. He glanced at the bustling crowd on the street outside, and said thoughtfully: "Shopkeeper Liang, you said that the Supreme Decree treats the Hu people like this, so many people are eating and drinking here, so how much money do we have to lose!" ”

The fat shopkeeper smiled slightly: "Hey, guest officer, don't worry about it, in my opinion." Our Great Sui is rich in the world, and the rope of stringing money in the treasury is rotten, and this little money is not bad at all, it is nothing more than a few bowls of sour plum soup and a few bowls of wine, how much can it be spent? ”

Wang Shichong knew that this kind of small people in the market did not understand the major affairs of the state, as long as Yang Guang settled the money they paid for food and wine every day, they would be happy, completely ignoring how huge the expenditure of the treasury was, so Wang Shichong could only smile and shake his head. Prepare to take out a few big bucks from your bosom to pay for today's drinks. After all, he is not a Hu businessman in the Western Regions, and he has no intention of taking advantage of such a small businessman.

At this moment, a heavy sigh suddenly sounded behind Wang Shichong, accompanied by a burst of fluent Chinese, but with a very strong Northeast accent: "The shopkeeper is afraid that it is not right, even if he is as rich as the Great Sui, it is impossible to entertain hundreds of thousands of foreign guests for free every day to eat and drink. ”

Wang Shichong's face changed, and he turned his head to look over, only to see a thin man who looked to be in his fifties, slightly darkened, wearing satin clothes and a round high hat, standing behind him, his eyes were not too big, his face was big, his cheekbones were high and prominent, and his eyes seemed smaller. It seems to be the head of the previous Warring States period.

Wang Shichong has read countless people, but it is rare to see people in this kind of dress, and he instinctively said: "Your Excellency is from Goguryeo? ”

The thin man smiled slightly, bent his waist slightly, and bowed to Wang Shichong Zhengse: "In the Lower Goguryeo merchant Eji Wendeok, passing by here, I heard Your Excellency's exclamation, and couldn't help but interject, please forgive me for the inappropriateness." ”

Although Wang Shichong's business is big, he rarely has trade contacts with Goguryeo, that is, when the Great Sui and Goguryeo did not go to war seven or eight years ago, he once saw a few Goguryeo merchants who crossed the sea to sell ginseng in Donglai, and later Yang Jian sent troops to conquer Goguryeo, this trade route was also interrupted, but with the impression of many years ago, Wang Shichong still vaguely remembered that wearing a round hat and a cloth scarf wrapped around his forehead was the standard dress of Goguryeo men, so he tried to open his mouth to inquire, but he didn't expect someone to admit it frankly.

Wang Shichong's heart moved, he didn't expect that at this time, he could still see a Goguryeo man in the Eastern Capital, he smiled slightly, and bowed back: "In Xia Wang Shichong, I have seen Mr. Eulzhi." ”

Yizhi Wende was slightly stunned at first when he heard this name, and then began to look Wang Shichong up and down carefully, nodding his head lightly while looking at it, and his eyes were full of admiration.

Wang Shichong was a little strange and asked, "Mr. Yizhi, is there anything special about the body that makes you pay such attention?" ”

Ezhi Wende smiled and shook his head: "No, no, Wang Shilang's name as the richest man in the Central Plains, even in distant Goguryeo, is also very famous, this time Ezhi came to the Central Plains, I really want to see the legendary Central Plains business god, I didn't expect to meet in the alleys of Luoyang, according to your words in the Central Plains, it is really a blessing!" ”

Wang Shichong smiled slightly: "I didn't expect that this little fame would spread to distant Goguryeo, Mr. Ulji is right, today is really a blessing." You and I hit it off at first sight, why don't you have a drink and talk freely in this Liang restaurant? ”

Yizhi Wende nodded: "I also have this intention below, Wang Shilang, please!" ”

Wang Shichong turned his head to the shopkeeper Liang who was stunned on the side and smiled: "Shopkeeper Liang, I have something to talk about with this Mr. Yizhi, borrow your restaurant, and please wronged you, don't do business today, leave an elegant discussion for the two of you, okay?" ”

Shopkeeper Liang reacted at this time: "Guest officer, you, are you really a waiter?" ”

Wang Shichong smiled slightly: "I am indeed serving as a waiter in the Criminal Department now, but I am not wearing an official uniform today, and I am not investigating the case now, Shopkeeper Liang does not have to be restrained, I will pay you for a day's money for this second-floor elegant seat." ”

Shopkeeper Liang waved his hand again and again: "How can this be, the grass people have the opportunity to work for Lord Shilang, that is the glory of the grass people, how can you be embarrassed to ask Lord Shilang for money?" ”

Wei Zheng cleared his throat and said, "Shopkeeper Liang, since my master said that he would pay according to the price, don't shirk it, just close the stall first!" ”

Wang Shichong glanced at Wei Zheng, Wei Zheng nodded, understood, took out the usual copper coin from his arms, and gave it to the shopkeeper Liang: "This is a thousand yuan, the right to make today's wine money, shopkeeper Liang, please trouble you to bring up the ancestral plum wine, as well as the best dishes in the store, my lord is going to entertain foreign visitors today!"
