Chapter 5 Timber Shops
After passing through this corridor, there was another corridor, and on either side of this corridor were real cells, exactly like what he had seen on television, with wooden doors, chained, dimly lit, and a pungent musty smell.
Ye Wuxian coughed lightly and asked in a low voice, "Old grandson?"
A head suddenly poked out of one of the cells and shouted excitedly, "Brother Ye!"
"Little Guizi!"
"Brother Ye, why did you come in! Did you get caught too?"
Ye Wuxian said lightly: "I came in with money, don't make a noise, I'll see if I can find a way to save you out." ”
When the old grandson heard this, he sighed timidly and said: "It's useless! It's useless! I just heard that the son of the Sun family in Beicheng has been in a different place, this person just invited the Sun family to come over, and the person died that night, do you say that you can get rid of the relationship with the Sun family? If you catch the murderer, maybe we still have to live, if you can't catch it, we will definitely have to follow the funeral!"
"That's right, but it's true that we didn't kill people, is there really no way?"
"Yes, master, is there really no way?" this sentence was said by Xiao Guizi.
"Yes, there is a way, but it's useless to say it, Xiao Ye, you go quickly, when they react, they will definitely catch you too, come, I still have some money here, go out and escape, the farther you escape, the better." ”
After that, he groped for a money bag from his pocket, and was about to hand it to Ye Wuxian, but Ye Wuxian didn't take it, but asked: "Old grandson, since there is a way, you might as well say it, and I'll try it." ”
Lao Sun Tou smiled bitterly and said: "If you have a relationship in the officialdom, even if you are a relative of a nine-grade and ten-grade sesame official, or you have other identities, such as a student of the noble academy, or a candidate studying for the Jinyin National Examination." ”
Where is there such a relationship, Ye Wuxian said: "Is it okay for the freshmen of Qiankun Academy?"
"Yes, it must be done, even if the students of Qiankun Academy are freshmen, they are not under the control of the officials of the Yin Kingdom, they belong to the aristocracy, they are only under the control of the Emperor of the Yin Kingdom, and they are only responsible to the Emperor of the Yin! If the officials encounter the people of the academy and do not find out clearly, they will definitely not be sentenced privately. ”
"But where is Qiankun Academy where ordinary people can enter, ordinary people are afraid that they can't find the door. ”
Ye Wuxian asked again, "Then how do you enter Qiankun Academy?"
Old Sun Tou shook his head and said: "Don't think about it, if you want to enter the Qiankun Academy, you must be in the top ten in the three-year exam, not only that, but also go through a more rigorous selection, literary and martial arts, especially for the music and rhythm, must have strict requirements, and then after being reviewed by the Emperor Yin, after the Emperor Yin's assessment, you can finally enter the academy,"
Speaking of this, Lao Sun Tou sighed and said: "The big exam every three years is not something that ordinary people can participate in if they want to, and they must be people who stand out in the place. ”
"So troublesome?" Ye Wuxian shook his head in his heart, is there really no way?
No!
I was about to ask Lao Sun what else to do, when a guard walked in, and there were a few other people, who were the musicians of the tile shop.
"Let's go, let's go, what are you guys grinding and chirping?"
"We have wronged several officials, we have wronged!" a musician was spitting out bitterness.
"Go!Go!Go!Go!It's not what I said, whether you are wronged or not, you will know if you are wronged! Haha~!haha!"
"Official, official, wronged!"
The other musicians were not so unbearable, quietly took out something from their pockets, and quietly handed it to the prison officer: "Official, we are really wronged." ”
The cell boss pursed his lips, took it from the hands of those people, and said, "It's just so much money, so you shout injustice~~!"
"Yes! What the cell boss said is that we will find someone to get some more money to honor the uncle. ”
"That's pretty much it. ”
At this time, several musicians looked at Ye Wuxian, of course they knew Ye Wuxian and were about to speak, Ye Wuxian also felt bad, so he had to say, "I'll go first." ”
Halfway through, Ye Wuxian asked, "What did these people do?"
The guard shook his head and said, "It's not something you can know, so let's go." ”
Sure enough, ransom people with money is not at all.
"Okay, I'll see if there are any of my cousins in a few days. ”
"In a few days, I'm afraid there won't be any of your cousins in a few days, hey, are you looking for your cousin, are you supposed to be a fugitive?"
The jailer is just talking, how can a fugitive still come to the prison.
"Haha, big brother is really joking, you say I'm a fugitive, I'm so. ”
Ye Wuxian generously admitted that he didn't expect the jailers to arrest him.
"Hey, you're a fugitive, I'm still wanted, let's go, let's go. ”
When he got out of the prison, Ye Wuxian checked the money bag in his hand, this is the money bag of the old grandson, he took it out when he left, there were about fifty taels in it, this is all accumulated by the old grandson over the years, he didn't want to run away with the money, nor did he go to honor the doorman, but to do one thing.
Ye Wuxian came to Nancheng, the general pattern of the sound capital is that the east is poor in the east and the west is cheap, the south is rich and the north is expensive, it is said that there are many poor and beggars in Dongcheng, kilns in Xicheng, and many entertainment venues, most of the rich merchants and shops in Nancheng, and Beicheng is an official, powerful and powerful.
I came to Southtown to find the best blacksmith carpenter shop.
"Sure enough, this southern city is really prosperous. "The most famous commercial street in the south of the city is full of people at this time, all kinds of people walking in the street, coming and going are all people wearing silk and satin, and some people are in a hurry and holding packages, it seems that they are purchasing merchants.
And Ye Wuxian was particularly conspicuous in the middle, and the clothes he was wearing were shabby and eye-catching.
"Hey, I hope the store doesn't judge people by their appearance. ”
Walking from the north street to the south street, I finally found a lumber shop, where the owner was sawing wood.
I saw the saw rising up and down, the wood swaying back and forth, the swing amplitude was the average size, the shopkeeper was extremely skillful, it could be seen that he was a veteran, Nancheng is really a good place, just this shop!
"Boss?"
"Little brother, may I ask what's the matter, are you here to buy furniture?" said the shopkeeper with a smile.
The weather was hot, and the shopkeeper wiped his sweat with the towel around his neck, but when the shopkeeper saw him, he frowned slightly, although Ye Wuxian didn't look like a beggar, but he was not a rich man, his shop was mostly supplied to Nancheng, all of them were good wood furniture, and an ordinary person could never afford to buy even the smallest one.
Ye Wuxian smiled, fortunately, the shopkeeper didn't drive him away directly, so there was a chance.
