Chapter 88. Small troubles
The imperial capital was the cultural, political, and economic center of the empire, and it was even more prosperous than Ying Lingshi imagined.
Ying Lingshi walked on the street for a long time and couldn't be calm.
Many people are proud to live in the imperial capital, but no matter how big the imperial capital is, it can't accommodate the 40,000 people of the empire, and the imperial capital can only accommodate people who can be tolerated.
Life in the world is only a few decades, doing meaningful things, doing what you are willing to do, doing what you don't want to do, doing things that hurt people for decades.
It's just that you have to be worthy of yourself in what you have done.
Ying Lingshi walked on the bustling street, swept his eyes Feiliu and Xiaozi, and said, "Two little brothers, if you are allowed to live here in the future, are you willing?"
Feiliu and Xiao Zhuzi, you look at me, I look at you, and said in unison: "Where the big brother is, we are there, and we are only with the big brother in this life." ”
Ying Lingshi nodded and said, don't look at the two of you saying this at this time, you won't say that when you start a family.
Feiliu said tightly, the eldest brother has not yet started a family, and we don't want to mention it, could it be that the eldest brother doesn't want us after he starts a family?
Ying Lingshi smiled weakly, he wanted to tease the two little brothers, but he didn't think about it but was refuted by the little brother, how faceless?
At this time, the little bolt saw a cloakroom and walked in with curiosity.
The cloakroom is quite large, and various models of clothes and hats are hung neatly.
"The two little brothers can pick at will, we have enough here." Ying Lingshi patted his chest, and there was a silver ticket in his arms.
Feiliu was not polite, and when he saw the hat he liked, he put it on his head.
Ying Lingshi was naturally happy when he looked at Feiliu like this, this is the nature of the little brother.
The small bolt is also refreshing, and it doesn't count if you put a top on your head, and you won't let go of it when you hold it in your hand.
Ying Lingshi saw that the two little brothers liked it so much, and he didn't say more, can the hat exceed one or two silver?
"Boss, I want these three hats, how much does it cost?"
At this time, the boss glanced at the three people in front of him, and the lion opened his mouth and said, ten taels each, a total of thirty taels.
When Ying Lingshi heard this, he felt that there was something wrong with the boss, and said to Feiliu and Xiao Zhuzi, the two little brothers put the hats back in place, we can't afford it.
Feiliu and Xiao Bolt were just about to put their hats back, but the boss reached out and grabbed the two little brothers and said, how can it be so cheap? You've all worn it and it's become old, who will want to sell it to someone else?
Who would buy a hat that someone else has worn?
Ying Lingshi was a little angry and raised his voice and said, The two little brothers just tried it on, how did it become old, slander, I don't eat this set.
The boss smiled and said, Stranger, you don't inquire, people without a foundation can do business at the feet of the Son of Heaven? Tell you, you have to buy this hat, you have to buy it if you don't buy it, or you have to try it for a walk?
After the boss said it, he greeted the guy and said, report the crime, there are gangsters.
The guy answered, "Okay, there's gangsters." "I trotted out of the cloakhouse.
Ying Lingshi is not in one place, and there is such a thing in the dignified imperial capital.
At this time, the boss said again, outsiders, listen to the advice of people to eat enough, obediently take out the silver, this is not too late, wait for the official to come thirty taels, but you can't stop.
Ying Lingshi has this problem, the more threatening he is, the more he refuses.
There is such a strange thing at the feet of the Son of Heaven, he just wants to see what the official messenger says.
You can't say that what is black is white or what is white is black, and this is the place where the Dharma is preached.
Ying Lingshi told Feiliu and Xiao Bolt at this time: "The two little brothers don't act rashly. ”
Seeing Ying Lingshi's disdainful face, the boss was angry, and even pulled his clothes and pulled his hair, so the buttons fell off and his hair fell apart.
The street patrol officer walked in violently, and the three of them came majestically, and the leader shouted as soon as he entered the door, where did the gangsters come from? How dare you do anything wrong in broad daylight?
Ying Lingshi was stunned for a moment and said, Lord Guancha, Xiaomin came from other places, the two little brothers looked at the hat of this family, who would have thought that this boss was not kind, we had to buy it, a hat is ten taels of silver, do you say black or not?
The official at the head looked at the boss at this time and said, is what this person said true?
The boss said with a sad face, Lord Guancha, this gangster has not told the truth, I will give you a detailed introduction to the situation, and I hope that Lord Guancha will make the decision for Xiaomin.
The boss squeezed out tears as he spoke.
Lord Guancha, how hateful do you say this stranger, he said that he would buy three hats, but he put them on but he refused to pay for them, and if he didn't pay for them, he still started to do it, you look at me, they were ruthless, and the three of them beat me and one of them.
At this time, the official led by the official waved his hand at the messenger behind him and said, lock up these people, reckless men, and gangsters.
The two officers didn't say a word, and directly put the iron chain around the neck of Feiliu and the small bolt.
The two little brothers did according to the instructions of the spirit stone, and if they resisted, the iron chain would not be able to trap them.
The two errand servants also picked soft persimmons and pinched them, and Feiliu and the little plug were not so burly, and they were also childish.
The official who was the leader also threw out the iron chain at this time, Ying Lingshi felt that his neck was cold, in the winter, what does it feel like to have an iron chain hanging around his neck?
Ying Lingshi didn't hide, if he did, he would say an iron chain, and there was an iron chain of ten or eight that could trap him?
The boss saw that everyone was locked up and said, do you three have any remorse? If there is remorse, we can be private.
Ying Lingshi smiled and said, how can the boss talk about it privately.
The boss said, this is private, that is, you bought a hat, compensated for the loss of beating me, and gave the errand officer some hard-earned money.
Ying Lingshi asked after a little calculation, boss, have you become the master of the official errand?
The boss smiled and said, of course I did it, to tell you the truth, no matter how big the official mission is, I have done the master, our store has a deep foundation, who doesn't give face?
Ying Lingshi asked again, can the boss reveal what the foundation is?
At this time, the boss whispered that the military department Shangshu knew no, this was the business of the cousin of the third aunt of the military department.
Ying Lingshi wanted to laugh when he heard this, his relatives who couldn't beat him with eight poles were still so arrogant?
At this time, the boss said again, I will also pay it to you, and if you are interested, you will obediently pay the silver, so as not to cause you a lawsuit.
Ying Lingshi asked a little timidly at this time, I said boss, how much silver can settle this matter, and we didn't bring much coils when we first arrived.
The boss touched his face at this time and said, the official can't come in vain, ten taels per person is not much, three hats are still thirty taels, this is the price of Tong Suo, the damage fee for my clothes and the nutrition fee for the beating are a total of forty taels, adding up to one hundred taels.
Ying Lingshi smiled secretly and thought, this boss really dares to ask for it, I don't want to be a sick cat.
"Boss, I can give this hundred taels of silver, you discuss with the official and the adult, let these two little brothers go first, let them take the silver, and I will be a hostage here."
When the boss heard that Ying Lingshi had agreed to all the conditions, he was overjoyed, and then thought to himself, it is better to ask for more silver, and watch the stranger respond so happily.
At this time, the boss walked up to the official and said, "My lord, I'm sorry for you, let the two little brothers go first, let them go and get the silver, and you can have a cup of tea here first."
The official was overjoyed at this time, and said bluntly, don't be polite, it's all your own family.
Ying Lingshi took advantage of the boss's absence to come up to Feiliu and Xiao Bolt and whispered, Don't come back if you two leave, I will arrange it here.
Feiliu smiled when he heard Ying Lingshi's tone.
The little bolt also understood what Ying Lingshi meant, and said, big brother, let them suffer less.
The servants took off the chains around the necks of Feiliu and the little bolt, and the boss comforted him and said, "Two little brothers, go and come quickly, your big brother is waiting for you here."
