Chapter 27: Finding You
"Zhuzi, let me tell you, when I was ordering goods for the boss today, something interesting happened, don't mention how funny."
A darker, thinner man said to another, fatter man.
"Then why don't you say it quickly, and sell it!" The fat man asked a little anxiously.
"Okay, okay, let's just say, it depends on your urgency, whether you are so anxious about the girl, haha! Okay, let's get down to business, a girl came this afternoon, see which bureaucratic and aristocratic lady should be dressed, come in and ask our boss, do we sell black generals in the store, it's that kind of cricket breed, I've been in Wanbaolou for so many years, and I've heard people ask about living things, but they are all asking some rare beast pets such as long-haired cats in the Western Regions, this is the first time to ask about insects! ”
After the thin man finished speaking, the fat man didn't have time to talk, so he was rushed over by Jiang Ci and grabbed his collar and picked him up.
"What do you say? A girl went to the store and asked about the Black General? ”
"Right...... Right, right! This son, you put down the little one first, you have something to say, you have something to say. ”
At this moment, Jiang Ci is like a lion who has lost his mind, his face is very close to the guy, he looks like he wants to eat people, and the little guy who is scared by his rough movements stammers when he speaks.
"Childe, Childe, maybe this guy knows about the young lady, you put him down first!"
In the end, it was Qingqi who came to persuade him, and Jiang Ci regained some of his senses a little, stabilized his mentality, and put the guy down.
"Doesn't that girl look fat, but has a fleshy face? Apricot eyes, cherry lips, a bell on your body, walk up, jingle the bell?! ”
Facing Jiang Ci's questioning, the guy hurriedly nodded and replied, "Yes, yes, yes!" That's the girl! Before Jiang Ci could ask further, the guy opened his mouth again: "Our boss told her that this kind of thing is not sold in the store, and she asked where it was, and the boss told her that there was a date at Xiyue Bridge, and then she left, Childe, this is really all that the little one knows, and there is no falsehood!" ”
Jiang Ci snorted lightly and flicked his sleeves: "Forgive me, don't dare to lie to me, is there a horse here?" ”
"Yes, yes, I'll go and bring it to you, Son." The fat man on the side hurriedly replied.
After a while, he pulled out a jujube red horse with a long mane and a hanging belly, fat and strong, oily and smooth coat, and a sudden and powerful sound of horses' hooves from the back of the house.
"Yes, a good horse." Jiang Ci snatched the reins of the horse from the fat man's hand, jumped over the horse's back, and struck the horse's ass with a whip, and ran towards the city gate with a roar.
"Hey! Ay! Son! That's the best BMW in our store! You rode away like this, how can we explain to the boss! ”
The thin guy shouted in the direction where he was gone, and he looked like he had been robbed by robbers and called the heavens and the earth to be unreasonable.
"Don't worry, my son-in-law is the noble son of the prime minister today, how much is that horse, I will go back and get the silver taels to you."
When the two guys heard this, they immediately became happy, and rubbed their hands happily, hey! These two faces are changing too quickly!
After the two discussed for a while, the thin man closed his eyes and stretched out a slap towards Qingqi.
"Fifty taels! Well, I'll give you where to go. ”
As soon as he turned to leave, he was stopped by the man: "What kind of horse do you think that is?" That's a good jujube red BMW! Five hundred taels! Not a single piece of silver is missing! ”
Qing Qi angrily turned around and stretched out his finger to the two people, who looked virtuous and greedy like a dolphin snatching food in the trough: "You! You guys! Yes! Five hundred taels is five hundred taels! ”
He wanted to scold them, but his own son-in-law didn't take the lead and rode away directly from other people's horses, so he had to endure this breath and report to the old lady first.
And here, on the dark path that no one is around, there is only a jumping figure.
Jiang Ci brandished the leather whip and slapped it on the horse's buttocks, his flowing mane slid like silk, and his four hooves strode away, and the dust and dust of his steps were buried and stained with his boots.
The surname is Wei, you can't do anything! I don't allow it!
He was a little dizzy by the fierce horses, but his eyes were still as firm as a blade, and his mind was full of the girl with a silver bell, a round face, round eyes and a round mouth.
As soon as Jiang Ci stepped into the vicinity of the Xiyue Bridge, he blushed with his voice in his voice, and shouted her name vigorously: "Wei Wei! Wei Wei! ”
The bright moonlight slapped on the smooth stones, the small stone bridge erected by the stones slept quietly, and the cracked ears of the horses' chirping and the chaotic hearts of the people all disturbed the crows and sparrows that had stopped in the shadows and flapped their wings away, but they could not wake up the girl he was looking for.
He dismounted, tied the horse to a big tree, brushed away the beads of sweat oozing from his forehead, put his fingers on the wing of his nose, and widened his mouth, trying to spread his voice more widely: "The surname Wei, where are you, if you can hear it, give me a reply!" ”
Jiang Ci was like a lost ant, looking for a long time at Xiyue Bridge, not to mention Wei Wei, and he had never even seen a single figure.
He was a little depressed, and the loss swept over him, and he fell to the ground like a fallen puppet, and all the strength of his body was placed on the palms of the two supported hands, and the palms of the sharp stones were red and swollen.
Maybe she's not here at all, and I'm afraid she's doing useless work.
The more and more depressed thoughts were about to annihilate Jiang Ci, his eyes were also gone, and his gaze swept around faintly, but as if he had suddenly discovered something, he hurriedly turned his eyes and stared at the bright silver bells in front of him.
Jiang Ci hurriedly got up, staggered forward, picked it up and carefully confirmed, this is Wei Wei's silver bell, it won't be wrong, then she must be around here!
He ran a few more steps forward, and a tangled, stout tree caught his eye.
Jiang Ci went around to the back of the tree, and sure enough, Wei Wei was here!
But at this moment, she is very quiet, not as noisy as usual, not like a monkey jumping around, just lying on the ground with her eyes closed.
"Hey, surnamed Wei, why are you asleep here, do you know that everyone is worried about looking for you!"
Jiang Ci gently picked up the girl under the tree in his arms, and at the end of his eyes, tears of worry or joy soaked his eyelashes.
But no matter how he called, Wei Wei just closed his eyes.
At this time, he found that there were two blood holes in the tiger's mouth on her right hand, and the blood that flowed out had reflected the corner of the white dress in blood red, her beautiful eyebrows and eyes were tightly wrinkled, and her forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat.
Seeing this, Jiang Ci realized that Wei Wei had been bitten by a snake, and from the tooth marks and symptoms, it was estimated that he was still bitten by a poisonous snake, so he hurriedly picked up Wei Wei and ran in the direction of the jujube red horse.
The horse was still leisurely eating the tender and fat grass in front of him, but he was pulled by Jiang Ci and took Wei Wei to sit on the horse.
The horse was bent down by the sudden force, and stood up again, straightening its body.
"Look at you, the horse is about to be crushed to death by you, this time, this son's BMW will definitely lose weight, you are responsible! So this son doesn't allow you to have anything! You can't drop a piece of meat! Did you hear that? ”
Jiang Ci put Wei Wei behind his back, his fleshy face against his back, and pulled her two small hands around his waist, but now Wei Wei had no strength at all, and just put the ring on and let go, and finally he had to hold her hand tightly with one hand, for fear of letting go again, and holding the reins with the other hand.
This was the first time Jiang Ci held her hand, tender like fresh tofu, soft like April cotton, and her own aroma surrounded him.
The young man riding the horse avoided the wound in her tiger's mouth, and held the rest of the jade hand very tightly, for fear that the little man behind him would fall off the horse.
He entered Sheng'an City at a fast speed, and as soon as he saw the red lantern in front of the Jiangfu Gate from a distance, he shouted: "The young lady has found it!" A few of you, go and invite the best famous doctor in Sheng'an to me! ”
About the money setting of this article: silver taels have different ratios in different dynasties, for example, silver taels in the Tang Dynasty were more valuable, and in the Qing Dynasty, due to the large foreign trade surplus before the Opium War, the price of silver fell after a large inflow of silver. And this article belongs to the ancient overhead dynasties, so I refer to the silver price of the Qing Dynasty, 1 tael of silver can be exchanged for about 1000~1500 copper coins, and the middle and late Qing Dynasty is equivalent to 150 yuan to 220 yuan.
Therefore, the amount of silver involved in this article is based on this!
