Chapter 15: Greed

This Dayan Kyoto was expanded on the site of the former dynasty, and after a few hundred years, it has more than doubled in size, interspersed with large and small roads.

Qianhe led Jiang Xi and Boyan Suize in the sun, walking around and around for more than an hour, their feet were numb, and they hadn't found the right place yet.

Jiang Xi had a bad feeling and found an old man selling candy on the street: "Grandpa, do you know where the most famous tile shop in Kyoto is, and where is the best puppet show?" "

The old man's cloudy eyes glanced sharply at Jiang Xi, and then his wrinkled black and red face smiled into a flower: "Miss, you are from outside, right?" Do you want to look at my sugar man, two dollars and silver a piece, this is full of Kyoto, there is sweetness in my sugar man, and it is delicious! "

Jiang Ji didn't know that this innocent and simple old man was also so treacherous, but she didn't come to buy candy: "Grandpa, I'm just here to ask for directions, and I don't want to buy candy people, can you tell me where the most fun tile shop in Kyoto is?" "

The old man lowered his eyelids, poured the sugar man intently, and did not answer again.

Jiang Ji's good-looking thin eyebrows furrowed, and she was a greedy old sugar man, turning her eyes on the street to find the next person who could ask for directions.

"Miss, it's hard to survive in the world nowadays, how can others easily tell you that if you meet a black-hearted person, there will be more than one sugar man! Besides, I've been in Kyoto for decades, so there's nothing I don't know about the corners here. You high-ranking girls wear gold and jade, and spend two coins and silver to ask for directions, but it is just a little bit of fine sand leaking between your fingers, which is a life-saving for us poor people, but I pity me for having no children and no daughters, and there is an old woman paralyzed in bed at home..."

After the old man finished speaking, the sugar man was also poured, raised it in his hand, and stared at Jiang Xi motionless with his white eyes.

She seemed to be pinned in place by that gaze and couldn't move, and it took a long time to come back to her senses and signal to Qianhe to give money.

After collecting the money, the old man smiled on his face and said endlessly: "If you want to say that the most interesting tile shop in this capital, you have to count the elephant shed in the south of the city, you go south along this street, turn left at the first fork, and then continue to walk south at the second fork and turn right-"

The old man really felt that it was too cumbersome to say this, and paused and said: "In short, you will keep going south, turn left at the first fork, turn right at the second fork, turn right at the first fork, turn right at the third fork, and think of the elephant shed, from here you have to pass through four forks, turn left once, turn right three times, and as far as the eye can see, the most broken place is!" Little girl, can you remember? "

Qihe has been dizzy, and there are words in his mind: "A fork on the left, another fork, another fork on the left, another one..."

Jiang Xi was a little choked when she saw her dizzy gourd, and nodded after catching the sugar man handed by the old man, and then led the lotus to the south, and Boyan Suze followed behind her with the sugar man she had just bought.

Thinking that it would take so long to get to the elephant shed, Jiang Xi felt a little tightness in her chest, pinched her hand and said, "Sister Qianhe, didn't you say that you know the way!" My feet are numb! "

She was a little sneering: "Miss, I'm a little unfamiliar with the road in the capital, or I'll carry you!" Oh, that's right! What did the old man say just now? "

Jiang Xi glanced at her, as far as her four bodies were not diligent, her body was delicate and soft, she was inferior to her! If you walk on your back, you will faint within a quarter of an hour.

"Miss... Didn't you just ask the old man how long he was going to go? How long will it take..."

"I didn't ask... I thought it wasn't far off..."

"How many intersections have we taken?"

"The first... Two..."

"Why don't you find a place to sit and rest..."

Boyan Xuze crossed his arms and watched the sweaty master and servant sit on the ground and pant for breath as the beggar on the street sat on the ground, and waited until it was dark in the elephant shed at their speed.

If it weren't for the fact that this little girl had given him a dumb name, he would have wanted to ask who she was. He is even more unfamiliar with this capital than he is an outsider!

Jiang Xi rested for a while, her face was still flushed, and she stretched out her sleeves to fan her while panting.

Today, it was a longitudinal horse and dozens of miles on foot, and the hibiscus hosta on her head was taken to resist, Jiang Xi's sideburns were already a little scattered.

A few strands of broken hair on her forehead were slightly blowing with the wind of the fan, her face was red, she was panting slightly, and she looked like a lady in distress, her slender figure was extremely beautiful, which attracted a lot of sces, and the cold and terrifying alien men on her side did not dare to come forward to harass.

After relieving himself, he discussed: "Miss, you see that this time is not early, and the elephant shed does not know when to go, why don't we go out of the city, and it is not safe to walk in the dark at night!" When something happens, my thin arms and legs won't be able to protect you..."

Jiang Xi was really too lazy to speak, raised her hand and made a silent movement, and then rested for a while before saying: "Who told you that I was going back today, I finally came out for a trip, so I won't go back so early, besides, I haven't seen Wa Yan yet!" "

Qianhe wanted to say something, but Jiang Xi raised her hand and interrupted her: "You also know, Mama will always settle accounts after we go back, I can't say that I will be locked up for ten days and half a month, you..."

She deliberately turned her tone, and she heard a sigh in her heart, thinking about the black-faced mama's habitual style, fifty big boards?

"It's indispensable to have fifty boards, if Mama is angry, I can't save you..." Jiang Xi gently stroked Qianhe's trembling back, and said slowly: "Sister Qianhe, do you still want to go back tonight?" I couldn't say that I didn't have anything to eat, and I couldn't sleep before I was dragged to the hall. "

Qianhe cried and chirped: "Then let's eat and sleep well and go back, but miss, my money is only enough to buy a cake, what are we going to eat and where to stay tonight?" "

Speaking of this, Jiang Xi laughed and took out a small bag from her waist and threw it to Qianhe: "If you want to come to Kyoto, how can I be unprepared?" Count on your little money, and we'll starve to death!" "

This person is outside, and he is always unsteady when he has no money.

Now that he doesn't have to worry about food and housing, he finally became happy, and counted the silver happily: "Then Miss, let's go after a while, I also want to go to the tile shop, I heard that there are acrobats, storytellers, and singers, but it's fun!" "

Jiang Xi snorted lightly: "Who is crying in the morning and it's not much fun-"

"Silver Pupil, do you see if the person in front of you is your old customer? The Luqi man from before? Jiang Ji's eyes casually turned to a pair of fierce faces.

That Luqi person is no longer the smiling appearance he had before, his fierce light is revealed, followed by a few strong men looking for something everywhere, and his eyes lit up when he saw Jiang Xi and his party! Straight ahead.

She was just about to say something.

Boyan Suze threw away the things in his hand, grabbed the waists of the two girls left and right, threw them on his shoulders, brushed them and ran away.

In a whirlwind, Jiang Xi and Qianhe rested on the shoulders of this tall alien man like sacks.

Qianhe fluttered his legs in a panic, Jiang Xi's face turned red, and he shouted in embarrassment: "Let me go!" Hurry me down! What are you doing, I'm your master! "

Boyan Suze didn't have time to pay attention to this innocent little girl.

Turn left and right, and shake off those who are following you.

She's really naïve, that Luqi person is not a good person!

He was originally an unscrupulous merchant who traveled between the Northern Desert and the Central Plains, luring the beautiful Han girl to sell it to the royal nobles of the Mobei royal court, and he accidentally fell into the hands of this profiteer due to the royal infighting.

At first, he took him to various states and counties in the Central Plains, sold him to those Central Plains ladies who coveted his appearance, got the money and sent people to follow him all the way, stay in a place where there are few people, and then snatch him back and abscond to other counties.

Those ladies were either rich or noble, and their reputation was extremely important, so most of them did not dare to speak out when they encountered this matter, and they could only suffer a loss, so that this profiteer was arrogant to this point.

Today he saw that the man's eyes were burning at this little girl, and he knew that he had taken a fancy to this little girl.

Her appearance is indeed pleasing to the royal court's waste.

Originally, he planned to continue to let this profiteer take him to travel in the counties of the Central Plains, but he didn't expect him to bring him to Dayan Kyoto, since he came, he didn't plan to leave for a while.

This little girl is either rich or expensive at first glance, and she has something to do with the royal family of the big banquet.

Bo Yan suddenly changed his mind.
