Chapter 4: Encountering the Great Cannibal

"It doesn't matter, I'll definitely take the test." Qiao Song is also a little more serious, it's not that he is young and looks down on him, he is still biased, not for himself but also for his little sister. He just wants to be the one who won the laurels for that young man, and impress those people.

"It's okay, it's okay, let's just be normal, normal." Qiao Xi was worried that her brother would lose his mind in order to fight for a breath.

"Don't worry, the eldest brother won't lose his mind." As soon as he saw Xiaomei's eyes, he knew that she must have been thinking too much again. He's trying to fight for breath, but he's not going to make himself a little insane, his mind is very clear, he knows what to do and what not to do.

"Big brother, if you really win, you will go to the capital next year to try, and you will definitely meet those ministers to recruit talents, do you know what is the most commonly used means?" The top three in the palace examination are the most favored by those ministers, so if you want to recruit people to your subordinates, the most common thing is to marry, let your daughter marry the champion, Bangyan, and Tanhua, and say, look, I have married my beloved daughter to you, and you are not good at doing things for him.

"~~~ Marriage." Qiao Song thought about it, and this was the most mentioned in the books he had seen before. "Little sister means that they all think the same way."

Of course, people are selfish and unscrupulous in order to achieve their ends. Big brother, let me tell you clearly, I don't like those pretentious women to be my sister-in-law, the future sister-in-law must be liked by me and my younger brother, and you like it too, not imposed on you by means. In that case, I'd rather you don't have those names, but do business with me. "Qiao Xi doesn't want to invite an ancestor in the family in the future, he doesn't do anything, he only knows how to stretch out his hands for food and open his mouth.

"Don't worry, the eldest brother will definitely not marry." If he wants to marry, he will only marry one that his younger brothers and sisters like, if he doesn't like them, he would rather not marry, as for the incense of the Qiao family, there is no younger brother, and his inheritance is the same. "You are in charge of our Qiao family, and you have the final say in everything at home."

"I can't go back." She just waited for her eldest brother's words, and wanted to enter the door of Qiao's house, but she had to have the final say, if she didn't agree, then goodbye.

"No, your family was originally your own. I listen to you. "Qiao Song is rarely naughty.

A few days passed in a flash, and soon it was the day of the township test.

August has entered the autumn, the weather has become cooler, the sky has not yet brightened, the major inns have been lit up one after another red lanterns, the doors are all open, the candidates from all over the country from the inn in an orderly manner, breaking the still sleeping Tanzhou.

Qiao Xi and several people sent Qiao Song to the Tribute Academy, and the same as the hospital examination, checked the identity one by one, checked the identity, and began to search the body, this time Qiao Xi once again witnessed the strictness of the township examination inspection, which really impressed her, and then looked at the Celestial Empire's review of cheating, it seemed to be a little weak.

The belongings they carried with them would definitely not be let go, and this time even the hair was asked to be scattered, and the officials twisted their hair like a straw and scratched it, not to mention, they really searched for a very small note from the hair.

This is not an exaggeration, the most exaggerated is to check the facial features, will use something similar to an ear spoon, but it is longer than usual, sticking into the ears to pot, some people are being pulled out of their faces are white, and they are crying out in pain.

Qiao Xi was terrified, if the eardrum was pierced, wouldn't the ear be deaf, who should be this at that time? You can't let yourself eat it.

After checking the ears, and then the nose, the official will press the bridge of the nose with his hand to feel if there is something hidden inside, and then use his fingers to pick the nostrils, and finally the candidate has to twist the nose vigorously and squirt out the snot to finish.

As for the mouth, it will not be easily let go, it will not be easy to let go, it will not be counted if it is broken and seen, it will also be used to pot, and finally enter the small black room, needless to say, the inspection there must be very similar to the hospital test, but I am afraid that it will be too much.

After seeing such an examination, Qiao Xi was speechless for a long time, how could there be such a strange examination, this hand Tao Tao this, and Tao Tao that, it is really disgusting, just looking at it makes me feel like I want to vomit.

The bell on the drum tower rang ...... "dong dong dong", the candidates entered in turn, the examination room was locked, and the township test officially began.

Qiao Song entered the examination room, Qiao Xi and they had leisure time, she had come out to see it before, and just saw a shop with the words for sale, just like waiting to try her luck, I don't know if this shop still exists, and it has not been bought.

There was no carriage, they could only walk on foot, and suddenly their eyes were attracted by a few foreigners with golden hair, only to see those people standing in front of their own shop and gesturing something, but unfortunately, they and Xiao Erji talked to each other, and they didn't know what each other was trying to express, and those foreigners were obviously anxious.

"Oh, I don't understand what you're saying, what the hell are you going to do?" Xiao Er was so anxious that his forehead was sweating.

"May I ask if this is a place that sells embroidery and clothes?" A few foreigners are still very polite. (Big Food Talk is also English)

"Oh, what are you doing?" Xiao Er's size was not their opponent at all, and he was squeezed into the shop at the least.

When the foreigners saw the various embroideries in the shop, their eyes lit up and they had a big smile on their faces.

A few people chatted happily, looking at this for a while, and looking at that for a while.

"Look at this, this one looks good, I'll buy all of them later."

"And this and this, you look at the flowers on it, it seems to be alive, I'm so afraid of being beautiful."

"You see that these shoes look good, and they are very comfortable to the touch, and I will buy shoes later."

~~~~~~~~~~~

"Hey, don't touch it if you don't buy it, these embroideries are precious."

"Hey, I'm talking to you, why are you still touching."

"Oh, my God, what's going on, shopkeeper, come back quickly." Xiao Er was in a hurry on the side, and foreigners didn't take his words seriously at all, who made them not understand.

"Little Er, what is this?"

"Xiao Er, what is this?"

"Little two~~~"

A few people almost tortured Xiao Er to death, and none of the Xiao Er they said could answer.

"This is an embroidered handkerchief, for women, the one in your hand is called a purse, and the woman can take it to give it to the man she likes, and the shoes are called satin embroidered shoes, and the patterns on them are lifelike." Qiao Xi's clear voice came into the ears of foreigners, and at the same time fell into Xiao Er's ears.

Xiao Er and the foreigner looked at the place where they came out in unison, and saw a tall and thin young woman with a shallow smile on her face, standing five steps away from them.

"You're going to say what we're talking about." A few foreigners were surprised, their eyes flashing with disbelief.

Qiao Xi nodded, indicating yes.

Xiao Er looked at Qiao Xi, a little bit unconvinced that the words just now came from her mouth, even their shopkeeper could only say two simple words, this girl said very smoothly, what kind of person is she, the big dry or the same as those foreigners, with the mentality of trying, asked: "The girl can talk about big food?" ”

"Yes, what's the problem?"

"No, no, girl, can you please ask for something, can you help me ask, are they here to buy something?" Xiao Er was deeply relieved when he heard Qiao Xi's words, and finally he could face them without talking about chickens and ducks, he was really tired.

"Okay, how about I get a discount when I buy something?"

"Yes, yes, thank you, girl."

"Do you want to buy embroidery? Is there a specific list you want to buy? Qiao Xi turned his head and asked about the foreigners.

"We heard that Daqian's embroidery is very famous, so we wanted to buy some and take it home." I finally met someone who could talk big food, otherwise a few of them didn't know what to do, and they wouldn't have come out if they had known.

They should have listened to Robert, stayed at the inn obediently, and told him what they wanted to buy, but while he was out, a few people slipped out alone.

I thought Robert was lying to them, but I didn't expect it to be true, the people of Daqian really couldn't understand their words, and only Robert and James could speak Daqian, hey~~~

"Do you have anything specific you'd like to buy?"

"I look pretty good, I seem to buy some." Girls, they all love beauty, and they generally can't walk when they see beautiful things, and they can't wait to move them all home.

"I want to buy clothes and shoes, ah, and the headwear here, all of which are very beautiful." Number Seven

"Can you help us? We don't let you help in vain, we give you things, then we exchange things with you. The foreigner's eyes were full of hope.

"Okay." What they wanted, she didn't lack, she could embroider it herself, but she had the gems they had there, the gems they had changed before, still lying quietly in the storage ring, there were too few things, she wanted more gems.

"Little Er, they want to buy clothes, jewelry, shoes, you take out the good things in your shop and let them choose." Turning back to Xiao Er, he commanded.

"Yes, girl, please take them to the second floor, and I'll go and get the embroidery." After Xiao Er finished speaking, he went to get something.

Qiao Xi saw that Xiao Er was gone, so he explained to the foreigners, and took them to the second floor to wait.

The place on the second floor is very spacious, and there are some exquisite screens placed on it, and I walked into an open room, thinking that this room is specially used to meet guests, which is equivalent to a VIP room.

They entered the reception room for a while, and the little second-hand walked into the reception room with a few delicate brocade boxes.

"Girl, these brocade boxes are full of jewelry, not long after they arrived at our shop, they haven't been on the market yet, you let them see if they like it." And we just got three exquisite embroidered clothes from Liaoyun Mansion, which are very expensive. I'm sorry to tell them about it. ”

Qiao Xi nodded, and then translated Xiao Er's words to the foreigners one by one, as soon as they heard that there were exquisite embroidered clothes, they couldn't wait to see what kind of clothes they were and how exquisite they were.

Similarly, Qiao Xi translated the foreigner's words to Xiao Er.

Xiao Er comprehended, pressed it out of nowhere, and slowly a door opened, and three exquisite embroidered clothes hung on the wall, perfectly presented in front of their eyes.

Several foreigners widened their eyes, a little unbelieving what they saw, and there was a moment of silence at the scene, and gradually someone came back to their senses and sighed in amazement: "It's so beautiful." ”

One of them couldn't resist the temptation, and walked directly towards the embroidered clothes, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, and his eyes were full of obsession.

Qiao Xi suddenly laughed, these three embroidered clothes are the three embroidered clothes that came out of Linglong Fang in three months, this is the embroidery produced in the last quarter, each piece of clothing is embroidered by her personally, every season, these three clothes are bound to cause a sensation, for the belonging of these three clothes, many people can almost say that they can be described as bleeding from their heads, women are sometimes really terrible, more ruthless than men.

All three garments will be sold at auction at a fixed time at the beginning of the next quarter, and the highest price will be awarded, and only one piece per person will be allowed.

The embroidered styles launched every three months are different to ensure that each piece of clothing is unique, which adds to the value of the clothes.

On the day of the auction, whether it is sincere or otherwise, there are rich people gathered in Linglong Fang, or Mrs. and Miss Appear in person, these people come from different states and counties.

She was not surprised that this stunning workshop was able to get these three embroidered clothes, after all, the clothes were won by the highest price, and they didn't care who got them.

I believe that they have not imitated, but with their ability to embroider at all, they can't do it at all, so for the reputation and popularity of the stunning workshop, they can only start from other places, each embroidered dress in the Linglong workshop has a special symbol, which is every one, if it is not the Linglong Fang, it is a fake and shoddy goods.

"Girl, help me ask, how much is this dress, we bought it?" The first strike, since they saw it, of course they had to buy it, this dress is really beautiful. Returning to the big food, it will definitely make those people envious, jealous and hateful, and she feels very cool when she thinks of making someone so angry that she blows his beard and stare at the Sutra.

"Little Er, how do you sell it? They all bought. Qiao Xi said to Xiao Er.

"All of them?" Xiao Er swallowed violently.

"Yes, how much?"

"Three thousand taels in total."

"Beauties, a total of three thousand taels. Are you sure you want it? "Three thousand taels is a lot, and I don't know if these girls will be too expensive.

"Yes. To give. "Money, they're not bad, as long as things look good and wear them to make her beautiful to a new level, it's worth it.

"Little Er, don't charge money yet. Hurry up and wrap your clothes. Qiao Xi pushed the stunned Xiao Er, Xiao Er smirked, took the money, stepped to take off the clothes, and lightly wrapped the clothes and put them in front of those people.

"Is there anything else needed? If not, I'll take my leave. ”

"Yes, take five pairs of shoes, ten embroidered handkerchiefs, five purses, and three fans."

Qiao Xi reported what they wanted to Xiao Er again, and asked him to hurry up and prepare.

The last few foreigners returned with a full load.

Out of the Stunning Workshop, Qiao Xi proposed to them to leave again, those people were stunned, they had to follow them to their place, to pay her, without her help, they couldn't buy such a good thing.

Qiao Xi's resignation was deliberate, she was still waiting for their gem, but this could not be said by her.

Looking at the foreigners with embarrassed faces, they were finally defeated by their enthusiasm and agreed to go with them.

Qiao Xi followed them all the way, followed them to an inn, and saw that there were several foreigners at the door of the inn, and many of them were reporting something to a middle-aged man, and the more the man listened, the more ugly his face became.

Glancing at a few foreigners around him, he pointed to the man at the door of the inn: "Are they your people?" ”

"~~~ Yes." The steps of several people are getting smaller and smaller, and Robert is angry, what should he do? What to do?

"We have a saying called stretching out the head with a knife, shrinking the head is also a knife, it is useless to escape, go and meet the baptism of the storm."

"Girl, you don't know how terrible Robert is, woo woo, it's over." Several people understood what Qiao Xi meant, but they knew Roberta's temper better, and it was really miserable now.

"Chief, you see, it's them." A man who had finished reporting casually glanced at Lisa and saw them walking towards them.

The man, known as the leader, immediately raised his hand to signal to the person who was reporting to him, and looked up into the distance.

"Roberta."

"Go back." Roberta's face was very bad.

"Roberta, her name is Xi, thanks to her help today, we were able to come back smoothly, and we promised to pay her." Although they are very afraid of Robert's temper, they must be principled, and although they are afraid in their hearts, they must do what they promise others.

"You~~~ are not afraid that she is a liar and will deceive you." Robert looked at Qiao Xi very unkindly.

"How is it possible, she can talk big food, how can she be a liar, Robert, how can you doubt Xi." Lisa glared at Robert in an angry manner.

Qiao Xi was not angry, he would suspect that there was nothing wrong, it was indispensable to guard against others, Robert's approach was actually right, she didn't expect that it was Lisa who actually stood up to defend her, which was really unexpected by her.

"Can you talk big food?" Now Robert became very surprised, he has been in and out of Daqian for many years, and has dealt with many businessmen in Daqian, but he still hasn't met someone who can really have a smooth conversation, how old is she, how can it be?

"Are you really a big man, not from another country?" Robert asked in a big eater.

"I'm a big cadre, a native." Qiao Xi answered Robert's question with a big eater.

"Thank you girl today, since Lisa promised to pay you back, I don't know what you want?"

"I don't take it for nothing, I buy it from you, I don't know if you have rubies, sapphires, emeralds, or amber." If it was Lisa, she might have taken it, but now with this person, if she wants it, she will pay for it.
