Chapter Twenty-Five: Turn the corner and return to Bogu Building
'So familiar... Where have you seen Brother Wang...'
Looking at Wang Xiang and Wang Guang, who took Wang Ce out of the box, Lin Ling narrowed his eyes slightly, and secretly pondered in his heart.
Waiting for Wang Ce to go away, Lin Ling slowly went downstairs and walked straight to the counter of the shopkeeper.
At this moment, Dr. Tea, who was busy planning the plate, had actually seen Lin Ling go downstairs, but he knew Wang Ce's identity, because it was not the first time that Wang Ce had come, and he would definitely send someone to deliver the money after he knew it, anyway, it was a matter of time or time.
So when Wang Ce was drunk and taken away by Wang Xiang, Dr. Tea didn't take this matter too seriously, so when he saw Lin Ling going downstairs, he didn't react much, but he was still beating the abacus.
"Dr. Tea, I will ask you about the road, I don't know if it is feasible?"
Lin Ling said this, and had already come to the edge of the counter, looked at Dr. Cha who was calculating, and asked softly.
"Oh, the guest officer doesn't have to be polite, if there is anything incomprehensible, but it doesn't hurt to say it, if the old man knows, he must know everything."
Seeing Lin Ling so polite, Dr. Tea immediately raised his head, and his tone was also very sincere.
"I just arrived in Kyoto, and I was confused about the roads of Beicheng, I don't know if Dr. Tea knows how to go to Qingwen Street?"
In fact, where did Lin Ling know that Bogulou was on Qingwen Street, but Wang Ce said so when he came, and Lin Ling happened to be familiar with the geography of that area, if Lin Ling was placed on Qingwen Street again, Lin Ling only needed to go all the way south to find Bogulou.
Dr. Cha: "When the guest officer leaves the store, he can go straight to the west, and when he comes to an intersection, he sees a pastry shop called Songhualou, and he can change the route to the south from now on, just keep going." ”
Lin Ling: "Thank you Dr. Tea for speaking out. ”
Dr. Cha: "There is no need to be polite to the guest officer, and it is the honor of our businessmen to be able to relieve the worries of the guest officer." ”
Listening to Dr. Tea's words, Lin Ling nodded slightly, and he knew the temperament of the businessman, so he politely arched his hand at Dr. Tea, thanked him, turned around and walked out of the teahouse, and went straight to the west.
After a while, Lin Ling came to an intersection, at this time there were many pedestrians on the street, but looking at his attire, most of them were dressed as scholars, thinking that they must be outsiders from the city who did not enter the city last night, and as soon as the city gate was opened this morning, they all poured in.
"Songhua Building... A small pastry business, the plaques turned out to be the handwritten rhyme of the Liu family, it seems that this place of Kyoto is really worthy of being called the largest city in central China. (The central part here refers to the Central Dynasty, which is equivalent to the Central Plains in ancient times.) )
Lin Ling looked up at the gorgeous and unique plaque on the Songhua Tower, but was attracted by Liu Chongyuan's willow calligraphy on it.
"What do you want here, officer? If it is inconvenient to make a point, you can report your place to the small one, and the store will send someone to your house in a while. ”
Just when Lin Ling looked up and stared at the plaque of the dragon flying and phoenix dancing in a daze, the guy in the Songhua Building had already seen Lin Ling, thinking that Lin Ling was thinking about what flavor of pastries to buy, this guy was also dedicated, and he consciously ran out.
"Oh, excuse me, I'm just tempted by the willow body on the plaque in your store, so I stopped for a while, if there's anything wrong, I'll leave."
Saying that, Lin Ling was about to raise his feet and leave, but he didn't want to be stopped by the guy in front of him who didn't look good.
Lin Ling: "What do you mean?" ”
Guy: "Childe can see it if he wants, and for this store, if there is anything that can attract distinguished customers, it is naturally the honor of this store, but the pastries in the store are Kyoto products, are you sure not to try it?" ”
Lin Ling: "This... I'm shy in my pocket, I'm afraid I won't be able to spend much money to buy pastries, so... Please let me go. ”
Lin Ling's meaning couldn't be clearer, and the guy didn't have much to say, so he had to withdraw his hand and make way out, and slowly retreated while accompanying Lin Ling.
"It's so enthusiastic, the enthusiasm makes people panic, if it is a large and small teahouse restaurant in Kyoto, it is like this Songhua Building, it is estimated that there is no pedestrian on this street."
Walking on the way to Bogulou, Lin Ling shook his head and said with emotion.
After a while, Lin Ling returned to the place where he first met Wang Ce, and this place was only a hundred meters away from Nabo Ancient Tower.
"How does it feel... It's like I'm missing something..."
Lin Ling suddenly stopped at the clatter of his feet on the broken ice on the ground, thinking back to the topic he had been puzzled about, as if he had inadvertently forgotten about it.
"Yes, Dunhuang's Day... This brother Wang is really unreliable, if you don't know that you will say it from the beginning, Lin is not blaming him, I think he is just trying to deceive me into eating and drinking. ”
Thinking of this, Lin Ling shook his head and laughed silently, obviously helpless about Wang Ce's unreliability.
"Childe, Childe!"
At this moment, Guo Er of Bogulou had already seen Lin Ling from a long distance, so he shouted twice, as if there was something important.
Lin Ling, who was in a trance, heard Guo Er's chant at this moment, and immediately reacted back, trotting all the way over the distance of 100 meters, but the ground was slippery, Lin Ling didn't dare to take too many steps, so he had to keep speeding up the frequency of small steps, and after a while, he came to the bottom of Bogu Tower.
Although the distance of 100 meters is not far, it can be laborious to take small steps, and you have to pay more attention to the road conditions under your feet, so the consumption is much more tiring than that of big steps.
After resting for a moment on the pillar on the side, Lin Ling looked at Guo Er a little breathlessly and asked, "What did the little second brother call me for?" But Guo Gongzi is back? ”
"Guo Gongzi has not returned yet, but he has just returned a group of people, saying that he is a guy from the furniture shop, following Guo Gongzi's instructions, he first brought back a batch of potted calligraphy and paintings, and he will come again in the future."
Seeing Lin Ling panting, Guo Er hurriedly stepped forward to help, and while saying this, he snorted at an ox cart that had just walked not far away, and the meaning was self-evident.
"Bonsai calligraphy and painting? I can't imagine that since Pinzhi is so elegant, just buy so much, do you really use it? ”
Lin Ling looked at the ox cart that was getting farther away, and muttered something incredulous, but Guo Er on the side picked up the conversation.
"Childe doesn't know, in fact, early this morning, when Guo Gongzi was leaving, he had already given another elegant room by the window on the second floor, that is, the upper room next to you on the left-hand side."
"Guo Gongzi, together with three elegant rooms, paid a month's deposit, a total of fifteen taels of silver, but our shopkeeper's happiness was ruined, and when her old man went out to pray for blessings, she specially told the little one to take care of the two of them."
Hearing Guo Er say this, Lin Ling supported his forehead with a black line on his face, feeling helpless about Guo Quan's big hands and feet.
"By the way, the second brother, Lin is puzzled about something, I wonder if the second brother can solve the puzzle?"
Saying this, Lin Ling slapped his head, and suddenly remembered the matter of the Dunhuang Festival, and this Guo Er is a local guy, even if he doesn't know, he should be able to tell the general idea, at least not like Wang Ce, who doesn't know how to pretend to understand.
"If Childe has any doubts, although it is still the same old saying, as long as I Guo Er knows, I will know everything."
Guo Er said this, and had already helped Lin Ling into the lobby, and after he sat down, he also brought him a pot of hot tea very intimately.
