After obtaining Long Tianba's consent, the steward began to read out the contents of the bill: "6 cheese lobsters, seven hundred and twenty taels of silver." The Buddha jumped over the wall with two cups, four hundred and twenty taels of silver. Six portions of top-quality abalone, nine hundred taels of silver. Sea cucumber rice ...... You have consumed 4,500 taels of food and drinks alone. As for bathing, you choose a milk bath, a petal bath, a drug fumigation, an open-back massage...... a total of one thousand and one hundred taels of silver, a total of five thousand six hundred taels of silver. Members of the judges, we will all not overcharge you a penny? ”

When everyone heard this, they suddenly realized that this guy was picking up other people's expensive points for dinner, and there were several portions at one point! I also ordered a lot of services for bathing! No wonder they spend so much money! Immediately, there was a look of disdain on his face: no matter the consumption of dishes and baths in the clubhouse, there are menus with clear prices. If it's too expensive, you can not order so much, or choose not to consume! When it's time to settle the bill, do you want to pay for the money?

What's going on? No matter how sluggish Long Tianba was, he noticed that the eyes of the people around him had changed. After all, his family is the richest man in Jiangnan, and he has not seen the world. Just now, he himself listened to the steward of the club read the contents of the dishes, which were worth a lot of money just by lobster, abalone, sea cucumber, shark fin, etc. However, what the hell is that Buddha jumping over the wall? It's more expensive than all the delicacies of the mountains and seas?

However, he did not ask the question in public. From the expressions of the people around him, he also sensed that the prices of these items he consumed should be fair. When he first ordered it, he relied on the silver in his purse, and he didn't look at the price carefully. In order to show off in front of those friends in Beijing, he ordered a copy of the good things in those mouths......

Hey? Where are some of his best friends? It's as if when gambling on horses, people disappear. These people are too uninteresting, and they don't even make a single move when they leave! Although Long Tianba was a little unhappy in his heart, he didn't think about it again.

"This guest, you see...... Still have any questions? If not, I'll settle the bill here. "The attitude of the clubhouse manager is still gentle and polite.

"That...... Your money here is really not cheap! However, the name of the richest man in Jiangnan of our Long family is not called in vain, and this bit of silver is naturally not a problem. There was a moment of embarrassment on Long Tianba's face, but he still said confidently, "I was too excited to bet on the horse just now, and I lost all the two silver I brought over." You see, can you be accommodating...... I'll send the money tomorrow!" ”

The expressions of contempt on the faces of the onlookers were even worse: What kind of big-tailed wolf do you pretend to be without money? is also clamoring for people to slander people, I think you just want to take the opportunity to eat the overlord meal, right?

The smile on the face of the manager of the club gradually disappeared, and he snorted lightly: "This guest, I'm very sorry, this club doesn't owe credit!" If you really don't have any money with you, you can let the people around you go back and pick it up, our club is open at 12 o'clock, so you don't have to worry about delaying our closing. ”

The expression on Long Tianba's face was even more embarrassed: "When I went out today, I didn't bring a little girl with me." A few of my friends had left beforehand ......"

"If you have a member of our club as a guarantee, you can also postpone the payment for a day or two." The eyes of the clubhouse steward became solemn.

Long Tianba looked around, but there was not a single familiar face. He hasn't been in Beijing for a long time, and apart from making friends with a few foxes and dogs, he really doesn't know anyone with status or status. He hesitated and said: "I haven't been in Beijing for a long time from Jiangnan, and there is no one I know here......

"You see, you have neither a guarantor nor a way to contact your family. As you said just now, you are from Jiangnan, and if we let you leave, you will go back to Jiangnan. Jiangnan is so big, where can we find you? The clubhouse steward asked.

"I'm the fourth young master of the Long family, the richest man in Jiangnan, if I talk a lot, can I still rely on my debts?" Long Tianba was a little anxious, and raised his voice!

The manager of the clubhouse said unhurriedly: "That's not necessarily! You said that you are the fourth young master of the Jiangnan Long family, what evidence can you prove? If everyone comes to pay on credit in the name of the young master of such and such a family, can our club still be opened? ”

"I am really the fourth young master of the Long family...... Oh, look at it, this jade pendant is the symbol of the Long family, as long as it is a descendant of the Long family, there is such a piece. And the clothes on my body, the material is woven of top-quality tencel, and it costs a thousand taels of silver in your capital. And ......" Long Tianba was eager to prove his identity, and showed all the valuable things on his body.

The manager of the club took the jade pendant and looked back and forth, handed it to the guy next to him, and said, "Young Master Long mortgaged an ordinary mutton fat jade pendant, worth two thousand six hundred taels. A jade wrench is worth six hundred taels ...... A silk robe worth eight hundred taels. A total of five thousand two hundred taels, so-so. Give him a bill for the mortgage, and an IOU for four hundred taels of silver. ”

Long Tianba watched his things being taken away by the steward, and even the clothes on his body were taken off. His eyes widened, and he exclaimed in disbelief, "What are you doing here?" Why did you take my jade pendant...... You bandits, give me back ......"

The manager of the club ignored him, and after a series of documents were opened, he stuffed them into his hand and said, "It is only right to repay the debt." We accept your things as collateral, which is already considered to give you face. If you're being vexatious, then don't blame us for being rude! ”

As he spoke, several murderous and menacing men surrounded Long Tianba. The goods were immediately stunned, and said in a loud voice: "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding!" Those things will be mortgaged in your clubhouse first, and tomorrow I will definitely come and redeem the silver, and I will not owe you a penny!" ”

In the end, Long Tianba wore a dirty dress and walked out of the door of the club in a trembling manner. In late autumn, the evening chill hit, and he couldn't help but cry while holding his arms.

"Second brother, that guy is so funny, he still wants to be an uncle without silver!" Zhu Yunxin looked at this scene and laughed so hard that her intestines were knotted. This stunned green man is a tease sent by a monkey, right?

Zhu Yunxiao's gentle face couldn't tell what he was thinking in his heart, and his big round eyes, which were extremely similar to Yu Xiaocao, flashed with a dangerous light: "I heard that this guy said a lot of insults to the club and the owner of the club in the racecourse......

"What !!" Zhu Yunxin suddenly bit the lollipop in her mouth, "Second brother, why didn't you say it earlier!" It's just a matter of insulting the club, and you dare to speak ill of your mother! How can I bear it? ”

"I can't bear it, I don't need to endure it anymore!!" Zhu Yunxiao grinded his teeth and said fiercely.

When Zhu Yunxin heard this, she knew that if she beat someone today, the second brother would not stop her, so she happily rubbed her hands: "Go!" If I don't beat the surname Long so much that his mother can't recognize him today, I won't be surnamed Zhu! ”

Zhu Yunxiao grabbed her.

Zhu Yunxin was anxious: "Second brother, you won't be soft-hearted, right?" He insulted his mother like that, he slapped our Xu Wangfu in the face, slapped our brothers and sisters in the face, if we let him go so easily, how can we be worthy of the mother's love for us? ”

Zhu Yunxiao smiled: "What's the hurry, no wonder my mother asked me to follow you to sharpen your temperament!" Wait a minute, I'll ask the steward to prepare the sack......"

"Second brother, do you mean to put him in a sack? It's so funny, I've never put someone else's sack before! Zhu Yunxin was even more excited, and almost didn't jump up, "Hurry up, don't go far!" ”

"It's okay, his horse has been buckled down as collateral, with his legs, he is not familiar with the road conditions, can he be faster than us?" Zhu Yunxiao narrowed his eyes, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

Long Tianba felt that he had really carried it home today. When betting on horses, he also deliberately inquired about the situation of each horse race, and bought all the hot horses to win the championship, but none of them won the game. He gambled so much that he forgot to keep the money for the settlement, and was deducted from all the valuable things on his body, not to mention that he did not even leave his clothes and horses.

On the way back, I don't know which one, but he covered his head and beat him severely. He had never suffered such a sin since he was a child!

At that time, Long Tianba was walking tremblingly on the way back to the city, and from time to time horses and carriages passed by him, and they would cast surprised glances at him. He still had to face it, with his head bowed and his hands folded around his chest, walking briskly by the side of the road.

Passing through a grove of trees, he suddenly felt a numb ankle and fell to the ground unexpectedly. He thought he had accidentally stepped on a stone and broken his foot, but when he was about to get up, it was dark in front of him, and before he could react, he was pulled into the woods.

Then, a storm of punches and kicks came at him. Why did he think it was two people who did it? A man picked up his head and punched and kicked him in the face. The other person was very tricky and picked on his sore spots, hitting him wherever it hurts, and the pain made him feel foggy for a while.

Long Tianba shouted loudly, but there were already few people on the outskirts, and in the evening, there were only a few people passing by the grove. Just as he was shouting out his voice, he finally heard movement. The abuser "had to" let him go.

When he struggled to get rid of the sack on his head, there was nothing on his head, on his face, on his body that did not hurt. My eyes were so swollen that there was only one slit left, and it was very difficult to see. There were two nosebleeds hanging under the nose, and the white obscene clothes were mixed with nosebleeds and dirt, and they were no longer the same. His appearance at this time, it is estimated that he can't recognize him when he stands face to face with him.

Long Tianba didn't know how he got back to the inn. At that time, it was already dark, and Long Yikui was shocked when he saw a man with a swollen face like a pig's head appearing in front of him and calling him father. Then he was distressed and furious: "Who did it?" ”
