"What are you doing? Is this also a place where you wander around? Are you blind, and you don't see such a big sign at the door that says beggars and dogs are strictly forbidden to enter. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info This is a meal for me to go elsewhere, stay here in case you frighten the guests, see that I don't peel your skin. ”

Just when Hu Qiong crossed the threshold of the restaurant with the pig ingot, an arm appeared in front of Hu Qiong's eyes, which was the shopkeeper of the restaurant blocking him from entering.

It's no wonder that the shopkeeper will feel that he goes out, just Hu Qiong's style, the clothes he is wearing are dirty and torn, and his face is also jet black, as for his feet, it is even more pitiful, just walking barefoot on the road. With this image, going out will seriously affect the appearance of the city and pollute the social environment. As long as this looks, anyone will say the same thing, this is purely a senior beggar.

"This lord, please come inside, do you want a private room?

Facing the obstruction of the shopkeeper, Hu Qiong did not say anything to refute or justify, but just put the silver in the palm of his hand and turned it upside down, and then looked at the shopkeeper with a smile.

Sure enough, as soon as this silver came out, it was just like what the old Tao once taught. Although it is said in this world that money is not everything, it is impossible to have no money. When you find yourself persuading others, you can speak with silver, and sometimes that silver can be more effective than a thousand words you can say.

Sure enough, as soon as the silver appeared, the shopkeeper immediately changed his face and greeted Hu Qiong with a smile.

"Just get me a spot downstairs. ”

Seeing that there were still a lot of vacant seats in the hall on the first floor, at most seventy or eighty percent of the seats were occupied, so Hu Qiong rejected the proposal of the shopkeeper. This book is not very clear, the restaurant is the best place to listen to the gossip, and now Hu Qiong is a real rookie in the rivers and lakes, and the current situation in the rivers and lakes can be called a black eye, even where he is now, he doesn't know, so how can he give up this good opportunity to find out the news now.

"This lord, you see that my small shop generally provides high-quality forage for the guests' mounts, and I really haven't entertained such a pet like you, do you think I will take it directly to the back kitchen and feed it to your pet with some swill or something?"

Hearing that Hu Qiong chose to sit down on the first floor, although the shopkeeper didn't say anything, his face still showed a faint disappointment. When he saw that Zhu Yuanbao was also following Hu Qiong and preparing to enter the restaurant, although he was a professional shopkeeper, although he did not kick the pig ingots out of the door, he also told Hu Qiong euphemistically that as a high-end restaurant, he refused to bring pets in.

"My pig, since he was born, has been serving with a lot of fish and meat, and if he is asked to eat any swill, he really can't eat it. Besides, we have been eating at the same table with it all the time, so I hope that the second brother will bear with it. ”

Knowing the hint of the shopkeeper, Hu Qiong found the smallest piece of silver from the purse and handed it to the guy, hoping to be accommodating and let the pig ingots go in with him. After all, they have lived together for nearly 20 days, not to mention that Hu Qiong has any deep feelings for the pig ingot, but how much he has a certain understanding of the habits of the pig ingot, he really wants to let the shopkeeper take the pig ingots to the backyard to eat swill or something, the ghost knows what will happen to this pig ingot. In order to allow herself to eat a meal in peace, this Hu Qiong had no choice but to bribe the second child of this shop.

"This master, please come here, please!"

Seeing the silver in his hand, the shopkeeper didn't say anything about the prohibition of pets from entering, but hunched over and led Hu Qiong inside. After all, this is a matter of money, and it is necessary to eliminate disasters with others.

"What do you have here?"

After sitting down at a table by the window, Hu Qiong was ready to consult the shopkeeper on the side of the restaurant, and what good dishes were worth recommending.

"Our restaurant has always been famous for all kinds of game, such as stir-fried rabbit with tea, cured venison are not bad, and the sauce beef is also a signature dish of the store. ”

Hearing that Hu Qiong was about to order, the shopkeeper hurriedly recommended several signature dishes in the restaurant.

"Then give me one piece of tea fried meat and cured venison, and two catties of sauced beef, and a few fresh vegetables. By the way, what other good wine do you have here?"

Estimating the remaining silver in her arms, Hu Qiong felt that there should be some leftover after ordering these dishes, so she asked if there was any good wine. In Hu Qiong's memory, this hero should eat meat and drink wine in a big bowl, and now since he is in the rivers and lakes, he must first put out the score of the heroes of the rivers and lakes. As for the plates of vegetables ordered, it is really due to the meat eaten all day long during this time, and eating some vegetarian dishes can also be regarded as being able to help digestion.

"I don't know what kind of good wine you like? Do you think it is the twenty-year-old champion red that gives you a pot of ten taels of silver, or the Lanling drunk that is a pot of five taels of silver. ”

It seems that there is a lot of good wine in this restaurant, but this price is a bit too high for Hu Qiong at this time. As soon as Xiao Er's price came out, Hu Qiong's bold words about preparing a jar were suffocated back into his stomach.

"What's the point of drinking this light and tasteless wine, is there any strong wine, bring me two pots. ”

Embarrassed to say that she was shy and couldn't afford to drink such fine wine, Hu Qiong had to make excuses that these wines were too light and she wanted to drink real spirits.

"Why don't you try our own bud valley wine, although it has a strong temperament, it is soft in the mouth and does not go up. The price is cheap, only ten dollars a pot. ”

Seeing that Hu Qiong didn't look like a master who could drink Zhuangyuan Red and Lanling drunk, Xiao Er of this shop thoughtfully recommended the home-brewed earth roast to Hu Qiong.

"Well, let's taste the specialties of your little shop and see what kind of good wine can be made. Then bring me two pots first. ”

Hearing that this bud grain wine only costs ten cents a pot, this Hu Qiong turned on the mode of loading again, and seemed to be very reluctant to call two pots.

Table 10 is one tea stir-fried meat and one cured venison, cut two catties of sauce beef, stir-fry two plates of fresh vegetables, and finally two pots of home-brewed bud grain wine. ”

After Hu Qiong finished ordering, the shopkeeper sang the name of the dish aloud, so that the kitchen could prepare it after hearing it.

"Little second brother, I want to ask you something?"

Just as Xiao Er of the restaurant was about to leave after reporting the name of the dish, Hu Qiong stopped him.

"Besides, there are several tables of guests waiting for me, and I really don't have time to answer your questions. ”

"I don't know what you want to know, just ask, as long as I know, I will answer you truthfully. ”

The shopkeeper, who had been shirking Hu Qiong's request, immediately changed his mind after seeing Hu Qiong's companion on the table, and stood aside to accept Hu Qiong's question.

"I would like to ask what day it is? And what is the name of our village, how far is it from the nearest county office, and what is the name?"

For Hu Qiong, who has been in a coma for a few days and has just come out of the mountains and forests, what he wants to know most urgently now is the time and place, so that he can determine the next move.

"Master, today is June 21st. Our village is called Yingqian Village, and we will walk north about 20 miles along the road at the entrance of the village to Chongyi County. ”

Hearing that Hu Qiong didn't know when he was spending his days, and he didn't know where he was, although the shopkeeper felt funny, his expression was obviously relaxed.

"Chongyi County, Chongyi County of the Heath Empire?"

Hearing that he was already in the Heath Empire, Hu Qiong couldn't believe it, and hurriedly asked the shopkeeper.

"Master, that's right, we are Chongyi County of the Heath Empire. Bounded by the mountain in front of us, to the north is the territory of our Heath Empire. ”

"Yuanbao, we are already in the Heath Empire, and the first step of our plan has been completed. Now all we have to do is to rush to the capital as soon as possible. ”

After confirming that he had stepped into the Heath Empire, Hu Qiong waved his hand to signal that the shopkeeper could leave, grabbed the pig ingots sitting on the side, put it on the table, and said happily.

Although there are more than a dozen tables of guests in this restaurant, the speed of serving food in this restaurant is still relatively fast, and not long after the departure of Xiao Er in this restaurant, the runners will serve the dishes ordered by Hu Qiong one after another.

After the dish was served, Hu Qiong divided everything into two, and even then prepared two servings. I haven't eaten delicious food for too long, and after I just finished dividing the dishes, Hu Qiong didn't even use chopsticks, just a five-clawed golden dragon, grabbed the vegetables on the plate with his hands and stuffed them into his mouth. As for the pig ingot, standing on the table, his whole head was about to be buried in the bowl.

"Inspection! Take out your documents and check them. ”

Just when Hu Qiong and Zhu Yuanbao were eating Haisai selflessly, a slightly majestic shout suddenly came from the door.

Hu Qiong, who was eating Haisai, looked up after hearing this voice and saw three strong men in green clothes and black hats standing at the door of the restaurant.

These three strong men wore square black hats with a peacock stuck in their hats. He wears a cyan robe with a red belt around his waist. The leader had an iron ruler in his hand, and the two matchmakers who followed him had an iron chain in their hands.

"Could this be the legendary catcher?"

This is also the first time Hu Qiong has seen the so-called public family, so there is no way in his heart to confirm whether these three are the catchers in the yamen.

"Name, place of origin, where did you come from, where are you going? ”

Just when Hu Qiong was still guessing the identities of these three people, the big man in the lead walked up to Hu Qiong's side and interrogated him.

After all, this Hu Qiong is so dazzling in the crowd, and her clothes are so tattered, she is not a decent person at first glance, so this catcher set his sights on Hu Qiong as soon as he entered the restaurant.

Xiaosheng's surname is Hu Mingqiong, a native of Quanzhou, who is now traveling around to study, because he encountered kidnappers, and was lucky to escape and live here. ”

"If you're kidnapped, there's no way out. According to the laws of the Heath Empire, anyone who went out without a guide was to have thirty rods and three months of forced labor. Come, take him down for me. ”

Hearing the quick inquiry, Hu Qiong also wanted to make up a set of rhetoric to temporarily deceive the three fast catchers, but before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the leading man.

"Whoa!"

As soon as the leading man's words fell, a slightly younger catcher walked up behind him, shook it, put the iron chain around Hu Qiong's neck, and arrested him.

If it is not a thief, then it must be a gang, and I will remember to torture this pig and ask him about the whereabouts of his accomplices, if he does not confess, he will pour oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, and then put it on the fire for torture. ”

After locking Hu Qiong, the leading catcher saw the pig ingots eating on the table, so he ordered his subordinates to take the pig ingots back as thieves and stolen goods.
