Chapter 155: The Semantic Difference Between 'Liang' and 'Wen' (Two in One)

The scorching sensation at the end of the heat wave was slowly suppressed by the cold winter winds.

Li Yinxiang looked at the red horse with four hooves, clearly thin, but it seemed to be faster than his own mount, like a red stream of fire, quickly disappearing at the end of his vision. She slapped her mount, and the green horse sped up again, but she still lost it.

Standing alone on the street, Li Shaoxia, who was dressed in a moon-white robe, sighed regretfully, looked at the jade plate in his hand, and had to turn around and walk back.

The green horse under the seat was very fast, and he had already rushed back in a moment.

The people and soldiers who had surrounded them before had dispersed in just this short period of time, and there was nothing unusual except for a little denser than usual.

After all, Tianxiong City is the pillar of the northwest of Great Qin, and the maintenance of order has already had enough experience, and the people also know the rules.

Li Yinxiang patted the mane of the mount, and the green horse slowed down and walked to the front of the restaurant, the coldness that he had just felt elsewhere, after getting closer, there was a warm feeling, mixed with a faint aroma.

Although the wood used in this restaurant is not the same as red sandalwood, it is also considered to be of the highest quality, just before the unicorn fire broke out, and it was closed at the touch of a button, but the wooden building was still a little scorched and loose under that high temperature, and at this time it exuded a rather mellow wood aroma.

The shopkeeper of the restaurant stood at the door, his face much calmer than Fang Cai.

There was also the fat criminal department official who came before, who seemed to be discussing compensation with the shopkeeper of the restaurant at the moment, and in the Great Qin Criminal Law, there were already quite detailed rules for these things.

This incident, in the final analysis, is because the Criminal Department took the initiative to take action, so the share of compensation will be slightly larger, and it will also include the intangible losses during the repair period, a total of about more than two hundred taels of silver.

The official of the criminal department saw Li Yinxiang who came over on horseback, stopped the conversation, and took the initiative to salute, and the shopkeeper of the restaurant also arched his hand, and apologized again and again, saying that the young man was frightened and couldn't help it, but fortunately he didn't hurt anywhere, otherwise he would really die and so on.

It's just that when he was talking, a pair of mung bean eyes couldn't be controlled, and he kept looking at Li Yinxiang's hand, looking at the faint jade color in the purple silk bag in the girl's hand, obviously those three words were hidden in the bag. Jiangnan silk is extremely delicate, and you can't see what is inside at all.

But he felt that those three words were now dangling in front of his eyes, dangling, and getting bigger and bigger, he raised his hand and grabbed the clothes of his heart, felt that his heart was a little throbbing, and his eyes were black for a while.

If it weren't for the fact that people were still ahead, they could hardly resist screaming.

One thousand taels!

Why didn't he grab it in his hands just now?

If he had already grabbed this jade plate at that time, with the temperament of the person in front of him, it was very likely that he would not be able to pull his face to ask for it.

One thousand taels, that's a thousand taels of silver!

And it's also official silver!

The price of silver is more expensive than the price of copper, and the official silver is even more high-grade, and one or two official silver can be exchanged for a total of 300 yuan to 500 yuan, that is, in Tianxiong City, the people eat and drink only about 30 yuan a day. He has been working for three years, and he has opened two times a month for five hundred yuan, which is already a very generous price.

One thousand taels of silver, that's one thousand five hundred.

He just doesn't know how to write and ink, but he is also extremely sensitive to silver, he has established a foothold in Tianxiong City, opened a restaurant for more than ten years, come and go, I don't know how many scholars meet friends here, what kind of poems such as 100,000 yuan wrapped around his waist and paid 100,000 yuan to Meixian, he has also heard it, and he still remembers the envy on the faces of those scholars.

That's not just 100,000 dollars......

That's fifteen hundred thousand dollars.

He was able to build a restaurant with a debt to build five in one go!

Thinking of this, the shopkeeper's heart almost hurt so much that he couldn't breathe, and he controlled his instinct to ignore the jade plate in the girl's hand, and barely coped with the noble person in front of him leaving, and he didn't listen to what the criminal department official seemed to say.

When there was no one, he still stood outside, as if he had lost his soul, people came and went, suddenly raised his hand, slapped himself heavily, and said with a sad face:

"Tell you to be slow!"

Howling again:

"A thousand taels of silver, ......"

……………………

If Li Yinxiang was still in front of the restaurant at this time, she would definitely feel that the shopkeeper was very pitiful, but even if the shopkeeper was pitiful, she still wouldn't give him the jade card she was playing with.

Next to him was still the 'Yang Shaoxia', much quieter than his friend, watching Li Yinxiang play with the jade card in his hand, but he didn't make a sound.

After passing a few streets, I saw a carriage on the side, driven by an old man of some age, with meticulous white hair, tied into a bun, but his eyes were gentle, and he saw Li Yinxiang and the three of them coming, slightly dressed, and saluted one by one:

"Miss, Miss Yang, Mr. Zhao."

Yang Shaoxia took the initiative to return the salute, the swordsman was not willing to give up, Li Yinxiang played with the jade card in his hand with one hand, handed the green horse reins to the little guy next to him, and then waved his hand indifferently, and said: "I'm tired, let's not go to Lefang next, go home." ”

The old man paused, nodded and agreed:

"No."

Immediately stretched out his hand to lift the curtain, Li Yinxiang jumped up first, and then pulled his friend up, but the soulless swordsman never got into the carriage, until the old man called softly, he shook his head, his eyes seemed to be clear, and he smiled bitterly, and said:

"The two girls go first, there is an old gentleman here, and there is nothing to worry about, today...... Today, I am so embarrassed, and I really have no shame to take on the heavy responsibility, and I also asked Miss Li to tell Master Sima that Zhao's skills are not as good as others, and I also asked him to ask another Gao Ming......"

He arched his hand, turned and walked away.

His body technique is already quite outstanding among the martial artists of the thirties generation in the northwest, and it is like a curling green smoke at the moment, and in an instant, he will blend into the crowd and will no longer be seen.

acted decisively, but did not give the three of them a chance to speak, and wanted to be silent all the way to this point, thinking about this matter in his heart.

Li Yinxiang's right hand had not yet stretched out, so she had to put it down helplessly, and said:

"Why bother? I didn't say anything, there are so many warriors in the world, who can go undefeated a few times? I also said that Mr. Zhao would not be stubborn, I never thought that he would take a victory or defeat so seriously......"

The girl next to her thought for a while and said:

"He's a martial artist after all, right? And everyone has great expectations for Mr. Zhao, thinking that he is young and jumps over the dragon gate, and he will not be able to step into the realm of the four-grade little grandmaster one day. ”

"Even if it is a big faction in the rivers and lakes, the fifth rank is also an elder with real power, if it is the fourth grade, it is already able to support the rapid rise of a family in Tianxiong City, it is better to say that they are already a walking family, as long as they are willing, they will soon be able to attract many dependents."

The old man lowered some thick curtains to shield himself from the cold wind.

The carriage moved forward slowly, the speed was not slow, and it was extremely steady, Li Yinxiang put the jade plate on the small table on the carriage, stretched out comfortably, and said:

"But it's good to value it, the eldest brother often says that a man should be ashamed and brave, and he is not ashamed, if Mr. Zhao can go further because of this matter, it can be regarded as a blessing in disguise."

The girl next to her looked at her lazy appearance, but she was playing with the jade card in her hand, and couldn't help laughing: "You have always liked the legends of rangers, and recently you often like to read the rumors of swordsmen, this time, you can be regarded as getting what you want?" ”

Li Yinxiang frowned and said, "No...... Not necessarily, he is different from the knights in the script...... Very different. ”

The girl next to her said strangely: "It's different, is there anything different?" ”

Li Yinxiang seemed to have thousands of thoughts churning in her mind, opened her mouth slightly, but couldn't say a word, so she had to sit on her seat and said in frustration: "This, I can't say clearly, but if you look at him and talk to him, you will definitely understand." ”

The girl next to her pursed her lips and smiled:

"Can you only understand, but not speak?"

Li Yinxiang clapped her hands and smiled:

"Yes, that's what it means!"

The voice of the two girls talking and laughing seemed to be a little loud, but it didn't come out at all, and the old man in black crossed his knees in front of him, controlling the speed and direction of the carriage, with a solemn and meticulous expression.

The two green horses pulling the cart gradually formed a cloud of nothingness, the faster they went, but the more steady they felt, and barely felt any bumps, and they first sent the girl back to her house, and then turned around and went to Li Yinxiang's residence.

Although not very gorgeous and extravagant, but it has a very heavy and vast momentum, as if the tiger is lying on the mountain stone, before the gate, every five steps left and right, erect an iron halberd, a total of 12 poles, the halberd points to the sky, adds a little solemnity.

Before that, someone had already opened the gate, and the carriage moved forward steadily, and after entering, it slowed down, and then walked for another moment before it stopped.

The old man dismounted, bowed slightly, raised his right hand and arm flat, Li Yinxiang raised his hand to support the old man's arm, and jumped out of the carriage.

Although she couldn't eat the food of the Western Regions that she was longing for, she was still in a pretty good mood, carrying her hands behind her back, jumping forward lightly and humming a tune.

When he raised his hand to push the door, he saw that the maid next to him kept giving him a look, slightly flustered, and could not reflect it immediately, the maid was a little anxious, and said two words softly, Li Yinxiang's face turned slightly pale, and she turned around to leave, but because she was in a hurry, she accidentally made some movements.

Suddenly, a very enthusiastic voice came from the room, saying:

"Is it Yinxiang?"

"It's been so hard for you to wait for your brother!"

Before the words fell, someone in the room had already pushed the door out, but it was a rather handsome young man, his face was full of enthusiasm and familiarity, and he smiled: "Ah, I thought that I would wait here for an hour or two today, but I didn't expect that you would come back so soon, cousin?" ”

"This time, I've found a lot of new scripts, especially new swordsman stories, you'll definitely like it......"

Li Yinxiang couldn't find any flaws with the smile on her face.

The young man mistakenly thought it was some kind of encouragement, and now he became more and more proud in his heart, and introduced Li Yinxiang into the house, and before he sat down, he had already begun to talk about the newly collected stories of the heroes of the rivers and lakes, and he was extremely excited, Li Yinxiang could hardly stop him, and told a lot in a row.

What kind of fresh clothes and angry horses, pulling out a knife to kill people for a promise.

With his fame, he commands all the knights to deal with his opponents.

Then naturally the evil is invincible, the heroic young man returns, the girl promises to each other, or wins the daughter and returns, since then the arrogant party, no one dares to be disrespectful, everyone knows what he has done.

The young man was extremely excited and his eyes were bright, but Li Yinxiang, who was also very interested in these stories in the past, felt a little boring this time, and even looked down on those chivalrous people from the perspective of a bystander.

In the past, she liked the good story of the young girl and the daughter after the knight won, and she would always be amazed by it.

Because of the strict tutoring, after coming out this time, it was not easy to get in touch with this unseen story, and when I heard it for the first time, I almost couldn't sleep with excitement, but now, I have a completely different feeling, and I can't help but feel out of the world with the jade plate in my palm.

The young man just happened to talk about a young man who reluctantly accepted the wealth of a wealthy merchant after refusing in every possible way, but Li Yinxiang suddenly thought, is there any difference between such a chivalrous man and a person who collects money to do things?

A chivalrous man should be 'go to the clothes when the matter is over, and hide deep in the name and name'......

Moreover, everything he does comes from his heart.

All money is a foreign thing......

She couldn't help but mutter:

"I treat my daughters like dung."

"That's the chivalrous ......"

………………

"Yo, buns, buns, freshly baked buns, pork buns!"

"Braised pork, braised pork, a three-hundred-year-old brand, no money if it's not delicious!"

"Apples, citrus, freshly picked, very sweet!"

The crowds on the road come and go, it is the northwest land, and there is also the prosperity and liveliness of the Central Plains, which is the essence of the Xiongcheng in the northwest of Daqin.

Wang Anfeng drove his horse slowly, and his eyes fell on a small stall next to him.

The shopkeeper is a young man in his twenties, and although he sells Hu cakes, he is different from the rest of the place, the white flour cakes are cut with a knife in the middle, the pork is stewed with various spices until it is ripe, and the chopped or diced green pepper and coriander are stuffed into it.

The aroma aroused Wang Anfeng's appetite, he actually hadn't eaten anything, only drank some wine, he was a little hungry at the moment, thought about it, turned over and dismounted, took the mount aside, didn't answer, took the initiative to sit on the table, and knocked on the table.

The shopkeeper turned around, and he didn't know that he had received the guidance of the master, and he was on the roster with all kinds of dishes written on it, and Wang Anfeng's eyes slipped from it and landed in a corner, on which it was written that he was grasping lamb.

The mutton eating method in the northwest is more varied than in the mainland, the lamb meat is expensive in a pure place, the taste is fresh and tender, Wang Anfeng has eaten it once, and he has some thoughts, and he is ordering a meal at the moment, someone next to him sighed and said:

"Now a good location is getting more and more expensive, a three-in, three-out yard is not a good location, dare to open me more than 200 silver, how can this be reasonable!"

"That's it, that's it! Don't look at it, even this Zhou Mansion is not enough to take it for eight hundred silver, where does he have such courage! ”

The diner next to him raised his hand and pointed to the side, and there was some anger in his mouth.

Wang Anfeng fell silent, and then, as if unintentionally, slowly turned his head, and looked in the direction that the diner had just pointed, there was a courtyard, covering an extremely large area, and he could faintly see the gardens, streams, lakes, and quite dense houses inside.

Wang Anfeng looked at it for more than a dozen breaths.

In the process, a word that had been deliberately ignored or even forgotten in his mind finally regained its meaning, rebounded in a stronger manner, and continued to expand in his mind.

One or two, consistent money, a thousand Wen.

One thousand taels.

It's not a thousand ...... It's a thousand and a thousand...... No, more than that, silver is expensive.

One meat bun with two tongbao.

One tael of silver is always two hundred dollars......

One thousand taels of silver.

Wang Anfeng couldn't help but take a deep breath and curb his thoughts.

Seeing that he had not spoken for a long time, the shopkeeper asked tentatively, "Guest?" ”

"What would you like to eat, guest?" We have a variety of lamb and pork patties, so if you like anything else, you can ...... it."

"Three white bread cakes."

A cold voice interrupted him.

The shopkeeper's smile was a little stiff, and he was stunned, and then said, "So, do you want to drink something?" For example, the broth costs only six copper coins......"

The young man in black was expressionless and put down the roster in his hand.

"Annoying, a bowl of water."

"Thank you."

PS: Well, that's all there is to do today, and the word count is still ...... emmm, make do with it, four thousand six, I'm old, I'm old, I can't fix the immortals......

Everyone who has rewarded in the past two days, wait for tomorrow to ease up, I thank you together, I'm sorry~
