Chapter Seventy-Six: The Urgency of the Grain Road (Part II)
With this discussion, Old Man Dong pushed Li Qiusheng in front of the heroes of Anle Village without reservation.
Li Qiusheng scratched his head embarrassedly and said. "This Deputy Prime Minister Lei and Liang Wangfu are actually nepotistic in-laws. If you want to deal with the vicious gangsters of the two cities, you must first find out who the grain keeper is? What are your preferences and characteristics? Otherwise, such a good fat and lack of beauty would not have landed on this person. If you want to rob this grain team, it will fall on this person. ”
"Well, the kid said something interesting, go on. It seems that you have really grown a little bit, and you have lived up to the hard work of Brother Jin and the eldest lady. Old Man Dong heard Li Qiusheng's extraordinary words for a while, and actually praised the joy of others present.
After thinking for a moment, the old man reminded Jin Daoke and Di Jinyan again, "Let's not expect the Lei Liang family to send a rice bucket and cup to escort the grain and grass, but it doesn't mean that this person has great ability." But at least one thing is certain, this person must be deeply liked by the people of Leiliang and Liangfu. Therefore, find out who they are, do what they like, and then set up an ambush in the wilderness to rob them of their grain and grass. ”
The golden swordsman suddenly laughed and said, "Sure enough, the hero sees the same thing, Brother Dong, let's think of a piece." Then let's just do a good job of him, and then wash our hands in the golden basin. ”
Old Man Dong was suddenly surprised, "In this case, we must have a good understanding?" Lord Di Zhai, it seems that we can do a big thing. ”
Di Jinyan interjected on the side, "Dad, since you all have the same opinion, then let's act according to the plan." ”
The Golden Knife Man joked, "Well, just do what you want." Later, Dad led people to follow up all the way. ”
Di Jinyan pointed to Li Qiusheng, who was standing beside him, and said, "Dad, then this kid and I will take the first step." Find out the news and report back immediately. ”
After finishing speaking, he pulled Li Qiusheng to say goodbye to everyone, turned around and left Anle Village with Pegasus, and galloped straight to Gulan Town, which was hundreds of miles away.
Gulan Town is not a well-known place in the country of Shanyue, but on the eve of the annual Duanyang Festival, it suddenly became lively.
I heard that the grain merchants in the nearby states and counties, as long as they have a bright mind and want to apologize for some money, even the guests who are crooked and evil are mostly rushing here.
Among them, there are two young young men in gorgeous clothes, walking on the bustling and lively street one after the other, which is very unusual.
The two of them walked to the front of the store with the sign "Dafu Rice Shop" in the middle of the street, stopped, looked around, and saw that there was no special sign and walked directly into the store.
Seeing that two brightly dressed guests suddenly came today, the shopkeeper couldn't help but wait for the shopkeeper's words, so he hurriedly greeted him with a smile on his face.
Walking to the rice stall, the boy in front of him bent down and brushed it with his hand, grabbed a handful of snow-white rice in his hand, put it under his nose and sniffed it, and shouted loudly again and again. "Good rice, good rice, shopkeeper, how much is a pound? Where to buy good goods. We also want thousands of catties to be shipped back to other places to sell. ”
The boy in Tsing Yi who followed behind also blurted out praise, "Shopkeeper, how much do you have in stock of this rice, we want it all, okay?" ”
The two brothers sang and harmonized for a while, and the shop of "Dafu Rice Shop" was in a boil.
The crowd of merchants in the street who didn't know the truth also stopped at the door of the store in an instant, and stretched out Bozi to watch the shopkeeper and the two sons and brothers bargain fiercely.
I only heard the humble words of the shopkeeper, "Two sons, although the amount of food you want is large, the price is also very low. Taking a step back, even if you can get food from Lord He, who is holding the grain, I am afraid that this price will make He someone retreat and dare not speak. ”
The son who wore purple and red also bowed humbly, "What is the shopkeeper, so you refuse to sell so much grain to our brothers?" I'm still afraid that I won't have money to give. ”
"No, no, that's not what it means. Di Gongzi is really the price you give is very low, and the small shop can't afford to lose this business? The shopkeeper He said in a panic, as if he was chewing a chicken in his mouth, it was a pity to vomit, and the food was tasteless, and he was very reluctant to give up such a large amount of business.
The boy in green clothes in the back seemed to have seen the shopkeeper's hesitation at this time, and he stepped forward with an arrow step and slapped the shopkeeper's shoulder and smiled.
"Shopkeeper He, I see that you are also an honest person who does business. In this way, who did you say just now that Lord He was holding the grain? If you can introduce the two of us brothers to get the food from Lord He, and you have your own credit, our brothers are willing to calculate the honorarium of 5% of the total amount of goods. In this way, the shopkeeper does not have to sell food to us, and he does not have to take any big risks, just move his mouth, and he can make a lot of money by crossing the bridge and connecting the line, what do you think? ”
As soon as Shopkeeper He heard this, he immediately stared at the boy in Tsing Yi, "Is this true?" Can you make the old man so extra-fast? I Ho"
The boy in Tsing Yi replied quickly, "Seriously, seriously, even if it is a loss this time, the shopkeeper is worthy of Li's friendship and will do bigger business in the future." ”
"Well, Li Gongzi is right. To do business, you have to make a lot of money. The shopkeeper seemed to suddenly have a hearty spirit and said, and turned his head to glance at Di Gongzi who was wearing purple clothes.
It seems to say that I saw it, this is the master of Li Gongzi and my business. Your Di Gongzi is small, and you are reluctant to give out those few broken copper coins.
Seeing that the fish had already taken the bait, the boy in Tsing Yi took a step closer and urged. "Why, shopkeeper, let's make up our minds. You come to match, and our brothers will invest in a big deal. ”
"Okay, since Li Gongzi is a cheerful person, then the shopkeeper will follow you." Shopkeeper He replied happily for a while, and then turned back to the shopkeeper and shouted, "Liuzi, what are you still doing in a daze, go and bring good tea and treat the two distinguished guests well." ”
The two sons hurriedly pushed, "Shopkeeper He, our brothers have other things to procure, and it is inconvenient to stay for a long time, and the matter of the grain road depends on the great help of Shopkeeper He." Then the two brothers will make a fuss and leave.
Shopkeeper He hurriedly said in a hurry, "Two distinguished guests, this matter has to be taken care of for two or three days." Don't worry, don't worry, Lord He will soon arrive with food. ”
The young man in Tsing Yi was in a hurry, and after walking a few steps away, he suddenly stopped and turned back to apologize to Shopkeeper He. "Shopkeeper He, you see that our brother is in a hurry, and he almost forgot a major event. In order to express the sincerity of our cooperation in trading, we have to leave a small deposit for the shopkeeper. As he spoke, there was a loud snap, and a gold ingot was heavily spread on the counter.
Shopkeeper He stared at the golden guy in front of him, and suddenly a smile bloomed on his face, his eyes became a slit, and he shook his hands and whispered. "Li Gongzi, I can't help it, I can't help it. He Gui hasn't done a good job for Li Gongzi, why is he embarrassed to collect the cash first? As soon as he finished speaking, he couldn't help but stretch out his right hand and touch the gold ingots on the counter.
At this time, the purple-clothed boy jumped forward and said with a smile, "Shopkeeper He, Master Li is a bold person, don't shirk it for the sake of our happy cooperation." Take it, our brothers can rest assured. After that, he put the gold ingots on the counter in the palm of Shopkeeper He's hand.
Shopkeeper He pretended to excuse himself, and at the moment when the two distinguished guests disappeared in front of him, he finally took the gold ingots into his arms and walked straight to the back hall.
Xiao Liuzi walked behind and caught up and asked, "Shopkeeper, do we really cooperate with these two sons?" Shopkeeper He turned around, stared at Xiao Liuzi and killed his forehead with his fingers, and said with a treacherous smile. Little Liuzi, what do you think this thing is? Can we not eat the fat meat in our mouths? Who to cooperate with is not to do business, this time we just move our mouths and apologize, why not. ”
"But, but... Xiao Liuzi still squeaked and wanted to speak, but Shopkeeper He had completely turned around. He squinted, pinched the scar, and joked to Xiao Liuzi proudly. "In this world, there are so many buts. Little Liuzi, why don't you hurry up to the front to guard the store. ”
Here, as soon as the two sons left the store, they immediately wandered around the center of the street for a while, and saw that no one was secretly following behind.
Di Jinyan couldn't wait to shout at the top of her voice, "Boy, I really can't see it!" You really have two hands on these profiteers. Especially that gold ingot, where did you get it? ”
"Hey, hey, thief mother, this time you are confused. Do you really want to know? We just don't tell you, let you die in a hurry. Li Qiusheng shook the hair hanging down his forehead, shook the bright and beautiful brocade clothes on his body, and turned to Di Jinyan and teased.
Di Jinyan smacked her lips, stomped her feet, and immediately became slumped. "Brother Qiusheng, what do you say? Don't always tug at the little woman's heart, it's a covenant that costs people's lives. ”
Li Qiusheng frowned, and the whole person was stunned. "Lady thief, you can say such disgusting words, I really convince you. Well, stop saying your disgusting words again. Let me tell you, the gold ingots are fake. ”
"Fake?" Di Jinyan looked at Li Qiusheng with wide eyes and great distrust, and the whole person stayed in the middle of it. Li Qiusheng walked forward, waved a few moves in front of Di Jinyan with his hand, and said to himself. "Isn't it, this fake gold ingot can also scare the daring thief mother-in-law? Isn't she a miser of copper coins, the master is really looking at the wrong person. ”
With a "pop" sound, Li Qiusheng covered his ears and shouted, "Ouch, ouch". I saw Di Jinyan blushing so angrily that she pinched one of Li Qiusheng's ears and said angrily, "Who is the miser?" Who are you looking at wrong? Am I still a thief? ”
"No, neither. It's me, and I'm looking at myself wrong. Li Qiusheng finally held back the pain in his heart and said shyly, his whole body followed Di Jinyan's hand up and down, and it had turned into a curved bow.
Di Jinyan said fiercely angrily, "When did you still come to this set, if you don't give you a lesson, you always think that this beauty is so foolish, you can't see how dirty the bad water hidden in your kid's stomach is?" ”
After speaking, he pulled hard, and Li Qiusheng screamed away like a pig again. The pedestrians walking on the street didn't know why, but they just blindly looked at the two as if they were flirting as a couple, and laughed over.
In the evening, the bustle of Gulan Town still exists, and the atmosphere close to the Duanyang Festival naturally adds a lot of festive atmosphere.
In particular, the prosperity and liveliness of the "Chunxiang Courtyard" in the center of the street are even more brilliantly lit and blurry.
The woman's coquettish voice, flowery smile, and graceful figure all reveal a seductive and wonderful appearance. The blur under the lights makes men have an uncontrollable urge.
Under the aphrodisiac of the moonlit night, in addition to the slightly lively teahouse and wine shop in the inn, there is a place where the warbler and swallow are spoken. "Chunxiangyuan" is of course the most prosperous and lively pastime in all of Kulan Town, with bright clothes and bright shadows, upstairs and downstairs hustle and bustle, and the lights are as bright as a day sprinkled with pearls.
A sturdy figure walked out of the inn on the corner of the street and rushed straight to the gate of "Chunxiangyuan".
The mother-in-law who greeted the guest suddenly saw a brightly dressed boy and brother rushing to the door, and suddenly greeted him with a smile and waved his hand back. "Girls, guests are coming, come and greet them."
When the shouting stopped, one or two dozen delicate women dressed in fancy clothes suddenly poured out of the courtyard, gathering around Li Qiusheng, who was kicking in the door, and they were all chattering and delicate for a while.
Li Qiusheng was so anxious that he stomped his feet, immediately waved his hands and rushed out of the formation surrounded by women, lay down on the master's chair in the lobby, closed his eyes slightly and said coldly. "I want to see your old bustard's mother, and I want to invite the best girl from the 'Spring Heung Yuan'. Spread the word. ”
As soon as the words came out, the women first felt cautious anger, and then slowly retreated with the breath of a belly, and no longer dared to have their previous excessive behavior.
A flash of light flashed in Li Qiusheng's eyes, and a sneering smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
After getting the notification from her mother-in-law, the old bustard's mother of the "Chunxiang Courtyard" rushed out of the back hall and said with a smile to Li Qiusheng, who was closing her eyes on the master's chair.
"Yo, I don't know if the distinguished guest is coming, and the old body is not welcome, it is really a sin, a sin. If there is any inadequate hospitality, I hope that the son will forgive the sin. ”
Li Qiusheng sat up from his side lying and shouted as he slapped the table in front of him.
"Mother bustard, I ask you. Why don't you let the popular top girl serve me? Teach these marriage fat and vulgar fans to fool me, aren't you afraid that I will tear down your 'Chunxiang Courtyard'? After speaking, he stared at the old bustard mother intentionally or unintentionally.
The old bustard's mother of the 'Chunxiang Courtyard' was startled at first, and then stood stunned for a while, and then said with a smile on her face.
"Ouch, this son, are you angry about this? It's really wrong that I'm old. The girl from my 'Chunxiangyuan' doesn't dare to say anything else, just talk about this appearance, it's all Saibi Zhaojun, and Yan is better than Minkchan. What matters to the son is that the first card is not the first card, the most important thing is that the son will have fun when he enters the door of my house, and he must not vomit and sulk because of this, that is the work that is not rewarded. ”
As soon as Li Qiusheng heard the words of the old bustard's mother in the 'Chunxiang Courtyard', he had a little foundation in his heart.
His eyebrows and eyes immediately showed a slight drunkenness, like a bewitching flower, blooming brightly.
