25 identity reversal
Yi Hong Restaurant went out of business.
Because of the ridiculous discount shouted by the middle-aged housekeeper, it attracted a lot of people to scramble and fight, and the valuable things in the entire Yihong Restaurant were emptied by the guests who heard the news.
In the end, there were still many people who failed to get the promised twenty taels of silver and maids. Of course, these people will not give up easily, and they jointly went to the county government to sue the sable cicada.
In the end, because he really had no money and couldn't fulfill the promised concessions, Sai Diao Chan could only sell himself to pay off his debts.
When Jiang Yi saw the master and servant again, it was already two days later.
……
In Jiang Yi's small courtyard, the shopkeeper and Xiaocui had messy hair, gray faces, dirty and messy, like two country girls, and they no longer had the arrogance and glamour of the past.
The two stood there and looked at Jiang Yi, who was drinking tea opposite, a little cramped and ashamed.
After a long time, Sai Diao Chan asked puzzledly:
"Jiang Gongzi, why did you buy the two of us, what is your purpose?"
That's right, in the end, Jiang Yi paid for the two of them. Mainly because the price of selling the two of them is not too expensive, and it is only a few dozen taels of silver.
In Jiang Yi's opinion, with the appearance of the sable cicada, the price of dozens of taels of silver is undoubtedly underestimated. I don't know if it's because of her ragged clothes and unkempt hair, so that no one buys the price is so low.
Maybe it's because of this that the two of them in the original plot will be sold far away to Kanto in the end.
Jiang Yi put down the teacup, looked up and down the thin but slender body of Sai Diao Chan with a burning gaze, and finally stopped on her face, and asked playfully: "What do you say I have for my purpose." ”
Sai Diao Chan was uncomfortable by him, his hands were tightly wrapped in front of his chest, he took two steps back, and he was on guard, and warned: "You ...... Don't mess around. ”
To Sai Diao's surprise, Jiang Yi didn't take any further action, retracted his laughter, and his face slowly turned solemn: "The thing you said last time about the perfect tonic soup, but is it true?" ”
Sai Diao Chan realized that she had just been teased by Jiang Yi, she rolled her eyes and said: "Naturally it's true, as long as you give me my deed of sale, I will tell you all the news I know, how about it?" ”
She saw that Jiang Yi attached great importance to this matter, and wanted to use it as a bargaining chip in exchange for freedom.
Jiang Yi couldn't see her careful thoughts, just sneered and said disdainfully: "Heh, you have to understand, you are just my maid now, and you are not qualified to bargain with me." ”
"You ......" Sai Diao Chan only felt humiliated when he heard this, and his face was flushed with anger, but he couldn't do anything about Jiang Yi.
Two days ago, she was still the shopkeeper of Yihong Restaurant, with a rich net worth and high status, but in less than two days, she was reduced to a lowly selling maid.
So far, she has not been able to truly accept the change in her identity.
At this time, Xiao Cui, who was standing beside her, stepped forward, looked at Jiang Yi flatteringly and said, "Master, I know where that divine doctor is, I can take you to him." ”
Sai Diao Chan looked at Xiao Cui who betrayed him in astonishment, with a look of disbelief on his face: "Xiao Cui, you, how can you do this?" ”
This information about the perfect tonic soup is the only bargaining chip they can negotiate with Jiang Yi.
Sai Diao Chan really couldn't figure out why Xiaocui would take the initiative to explain and tell Jiang Yi.
Xiao Cui didn't care about the attitude of the sable cicada at all, came to Jiang Yi respectfully, squatted down with her knees bent, stretched out her two hands to massage his legs, and said very obediently:
"Master, Xiao Cui will be your person in the future, if you have anything to do with Xiao Cui, I will definitely help you take care of it."
As he spoke, he raised his head and looked at Jiang Yi, his big eyes blinked, and his eyes were quite charming.
"Don't call me master, call me young master, look younger."
Jiang Yi bowed his head slightly and gave her an appreciative look.
Then, he raised his eyes and looked at the stunned Sable Chan, and said with a chuckle: "Look, it's still Xiaocui's interest." It's not like you still don't recognize the situation. ”
After a pause, he instructed Xiao Cui, who was squatting in front of him and beating her legs: "Xiao Cui, in the future, this sable cicada will be under your control, and you want her to become a qualified maid, you know?" ”
"Okay, young master, I will definitely discipline Sai Diao Chan well and make her obedient."
Xiao Cui responded and said loudly.
Jiang Yi thought for a while and said, "There is also the matter of the divine doctor and the Ten Perfection Tonic Soup, you have to inquire clearly, I want to know the detailed information." It's best to find out, which people in the rivers and lakes have taken this perfect tonic soup to improve their internal cultivation, do you know? ”
"No problem, just leave it to me." Xiao Cui nodded again and again and agreed.
"That's good, don't let me down."
Jiang Yi nodded, got up and went to the quiet room to cultivate.
Seeing Jiang Yi walking away, Xiao Cui turned her head proudly and looked at the sable cicada, with a dangerous light flashing in her eyes.
As if she had been targeted by a poisonous snake, she was cold all over her body by her eyes.
She didn't understand how the maid she regarded as her own sister, the obedient and well-behaved maid, could look at her with such hatred.
Sai Diao Chan frowned, and said with a gloomy expression: "Xiao Cui, I used to treat you well, how can you treat me like this now?" ”
"Treat me well?"
Xiaocui pursed her lips disdainfully: "I'm by your side, I have been beaten and scolded all day long, you said that you treat me well." Hmph, it's shameless. ”
As she spoke, she walked to a corner of the yard where the debris was piled up, pulled out a slender bamboo stick, and shook it gently.
Smack.
The bamboo strips twitched the air and made a few crunching sounds.
Xiao Cui looked at the sable cicada proudly and said:
"From today onwards, you'd better be honest and obedient to me, or I'll teach you a lesson, you know?"
Seeing her smug appearance, Sai Diao Chan knew that it was useless to say anything about the deep affection of the master and servant, so she could only smile miserably.
I didn't expect to lose power, and the first person to come to trouble was not the former enemy Tong Xiangyu, but Xiaocui, a close maid.
Is it such a failure to be a human being......
"Smack!"
Just as he was thinking about it, a sharp pain suddenly came from his leg, which made the sable cicada scream in pain.
Xiao Cui took back the slender bamboo strip and said slowly: "What are you still doing in a daze, don't clean up the yard quickly, with me watching, don't you want to be lazy." ”
Seeing the sable cicada covering her legs, her expression inhaling painfully, Xiao Cui only felt that the evil anger she had suffered for many years had finally been vented, and she was very happy.
Then, she unconsciously learned the tone of Sai Diao Chan, and commanded arrogantly: "After the yard is cleaned, I will go and wash all the young master's clothes, and then go to prepare lunch." ”
Sai Diao clenched his silver teeth, but he didn't dare to resist, but he lowered his head and silently went to get a rag and a broom, ready to clean.
Looking at the sable cicada's reluctant appearance, Xiao Cui's expression was very proud, and she gently tapped her left palm with a bamboo stick to supervise her work.
Jiang Yi ignored the grievances between the master and servant.
He bought the two of them, as long as he wanted to figure out the matter of the perfect tonic soup.
If this is true, he will undoubtedly have an additional way to improve his strength.
Of course, there is one more problem. The price of a perfect tonic soup is more than 1,000 taels of silver, which is far from what he can afford, and he still needs to find a way to make money......
As soon as he thought of this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly: after coming to this world, he was troubled by the problem of money several times.
Could it be that this is a characteristic of the martial arts Gaiden world?
Think about the several characters in this world, they seem to be inseparable from money.
The three major families of the underworld were hired by the bandits.
The three senior brothers of the Hengshan faction, because they had no money, they couldn't even afford Mo Xiaobei's sugar gourd, so they could only pawn the sword in the end.
Pinggu is a little red, and he was also hired by the Salt Gang to rob the prison.
There is also Yue Songtao, the head of Huashan, who set up a huge gambling game for money, and deliberately lost the position of the leader of the Wuyue Alliance, just to make more gambling money.
In this world, even famous masters have to run for money.
However, it is not easy to earn more than a thousand taels of silver. It is basically impossible to sell tea eggs unless the size of the small stall is expanded by a hundredfold.
Do you want to implement the plan of the franchise store and use technology to make money?
In addition to practicing, Jiang Yi always meditated on ways to make money.
