Chapter 4: My Sister's News

In the backyard of the tavern, a cart leaned against the corner, and there were jars of wine piled up on it, which was the wine that Wang Ji had just delivered.

Jiang Yi stepped forward and held his hands together, which was unexpectedly relaxed.

This jar weighed thirty or forty pounds, and he had a hard time moving it before, but now it was like a mold made of foam.

One altar, another altar, another altar.

After a while, Jiang Yi easily moved all the twenty jars of wine to the wine cellar, and he didn't even sweat on his forehead.

As soon as I went out, I met Zhang Jiujin who came back from outside, and there was a blanket on his shoulders.

"Xiao Jiang, why did I look so happy to see the boss lady when I came back?"

Zhang Jiujin asked as soon as he entered the door.

For him, the proprietress is the first object of attention.

Everyone can see that he likes the boss lady, but he is cowardly to death, but he refuses to confess.

"Maybe business has been getting better lately."

Jiang Yi said perfunctorily, you can't say that the proprietress is happy to tease Xiao Xianrou, otherwise Lao Zhang won't kill him with a knife.

But his words weren't nonsense.

Recently, due to the transportation of a large number of disaster relief grain from Liangzhou, the grain price in Baiyun City has dropped a lot, and the price of new rice has changed from 30 wen per catty to 20 wen per catty, and it is expected to fall in the future, which can be called a halving.

When the price of food falls, so does the price of wine.

The price of alcohol is low, and there are more people who drink alcohol, which drives other foods, and business is good.

After passing the question, Jiang Yi hurriedly asked.

"Lao Zhang, how is the news I asked you to inquire about?"

After he entered the city, he began to inquire about where the Nuanchun Pavilion was sacred.

Soon I knew that Nuanchun Pavilion was actually in the inner city, which was a famous gold cave in Baiyun City, and it took five taels of silver to start drinking tea at the door.

You must know that one tael is equal to ten yuan is equal to a thousand yuan, and according to the calculation of an ordinary steamed bun three yuan, it is about equivalent to the purchasing power of five hundred yuan in his previous life.

It costs two thousand five to drink tea, and ordinary people's wages for more than a month are thrown into it.

The inner city is the place where the gentry in the city live, and the security is important, and you have to pay 20 wen to enter the city.

After Jiang Yi got acquainted with Zhang Jiujin, he asked Lao Zhang, who was going to enter the inner city every once in a while, to help inquire.

Zhang Jiujin is a warm-hearted person, and when he heard that Jiang Yi had a sister who sold herself to save her brother, she was very moved, and patted her chest and said that it was wrapped around him.

"Good news, bad news, which one you listen to first."

"Let's start with the good news." Jiang Yidao.

Lao Zhang said: "Your sister should have found it, and she is very good now, and she hasn't started picking up customers yet." ”

Jiang Yi had already prepared for the worst, but he didn't expect to hear this good news, and his expression was suddenly happy.

"With this good news, no matter what bad news can be accepted."

Lao Zhang continued:

"The bad news is that your sister is now a Qingqi person cultivated by Nuanchun Pavilion, a cash cow, be ready to pack it and then push her out to meet people.

In other words, if you want to redeem your sister, there are not tens of thousands of taels, and you don't want to bring your sister back completely.

Unless you are willing to watch your sister fall into the fire pit and wait for her to grow old and decrepit before redeeming her. ”

"Of course not!"

Jiang Yi gritted his teeth and said viciously:

"I will definitely make up enough money, but before that, whoever dares to touch my sister, I will kill his whole family!"

"Tsk, that's so murderous."

Zhang Shijin said disapprerovitously: "Anyone can say cruel words, and the most important thing is the ability to solve problems."

If you want to save your sister, you have to scrape together at least 30,000 taels of silver within half a year.

Because in half a year, there will be an Oiran Contest in the Warm Spring Pavilion, and your sister is likely to appear.

With your current salary of two cents a month, you will probably have to do ...... Well, more than 10,000 years. ”

After listening to 30,000 taels, the situation is not certain.

Jiang Yi gave up the idea of this road, what kind of situation can make a poor ordinary person earn 15 million cash in half a year.

He looked at Zhang Jiujin and asked seriously:

"Lao Zhang, if I want to secretly rescue my sister from Nuanchun Pavilion, do you think there is hope?"

Zhang Jiujin paused for a moment and said, "Why don't we discuss and discuss how to make up enough for 30,000 taels?" ”

Jiang Yi said speechlessly: "You look down on me like this, I ...... now Anyway, I'm pretty good right now. ”

There are points added to the list of attributes, and after half a year, he will be considered a little superman.

"Amazing?"

Zhang Jiujin glanced at Jiang Yi, squatted down and picked up a pebble on the ground.

"Is it that powerful?"

As soon as he pressed his fingers, the pebbles cracked open, especially the parts that were pinched by his fingers turned into powder.

"How did you do that?"

Jiang Yi was shocked.

He still didn't believe it, and it was difficult to pick up the broken pebbles from the ground and exert himself so hard that he couldn't pinch them into powder.

Zhang Jiujin puffed up his chest, the little man was extremely burly at the moment, and he said quite complacently:

"Am I going to tell you casually that I'm a Ming Jin martial artist?"

"Otherwise, do you think the proprietress would casually dare to invite someone to come and work?"

"Ming Jin Martial Artist?"

Jiang Yi looked puzzled.

Seeing that Jiang Yi was an ignorant person, Zhang Jiujin's swaggering thoughts suddenly faded.

Pretending to be forced to pretend to be cool in front of someone who understands.

"Anyway, don't look at me so powerful, but I'm only a little strong.

Above me, there are also bright strength masters, dark strength martial artists, chemical strength martial artists, and even martial arts masters who have refined their qi, and even higher realms. ”

"There is a dark martial artist in the Warm Spring Pavilion all the year round, if you want to rescue people secretly, it is better to find a rope to hang in advance, anyway, it will be death."

"The Dark Warrior is very powerful?"

"Amazing? That's pretty impressive! Probably just hit ten of me with one hand. ”

Zhang Jiujin patted Jiang Yi on the shoulder, put away his joke thoughts, and persuaded seriously:

"There are some things that we can't do with our efforts, and sometimes we have to learn to accept them.

At least you and your sister's lives are on the line.

Only by living can there be a future. ”

Jiang Yi was silent for a moment, and knelt down under Lao Zhang's bewildered eyes.

"Lao Zhang, this is the first time in my life that I have knelt down to someone, I just want to ask you for one thing."

"You want me to teach you martial arts?"

Zhang Jiujin didn't wait for Jiang Yi to speak, so he took the lead in asking.

Jiang Yi raised his head and pleaded:

"Please teach me Master Zhang!"

Zhang Jiujin shook his head and said, "I won't teach you." ”

The light in Jiang Yi's eyes went out all of a sudden, but he didn't blame Zhang Jiujin, he stood up and comforted himself:

"Lao Zhang, I know you have a hard time, I don't blame you."

Zhang Jiujin couldn't help but smile and said: "You called me Master Zhang just now, and now it's Lao Zhang, I remember that when you first came, you were still called Brother Zhang." ”

Jiang Yi smiled bitterly: "I didn't think we had feelings." ”

Zhang Jiujin waved his hand again and again: "Okay, okay, don't play the emotional card, I definitely won't teach you."

My martial arts are master's martial arts, not to mention whether I am qualified to pass on to you, even if I have, I can't pass it on casually.

Otherwise, if you do something bad with my master's martial arts in the future, won't it make my master take the blame.

And in such a short period of time, even if you can practice for twelve hours a day, it is impossible for you to become a dark martial artist. ”

"How willing I am if I don't try."

Jiang Yi believes in his potential.

With a list of attributes to add points, it may not be impossible to create miracles.

Seeing that Jiang Yi did not give up, Zhang Jiujin pondered for a moment and said:

"If you want to try it, I can introduce you to a martial arts hall apprentice, they are all popular martial arts, and it doesn't matter if you learn it casually."

"Can it be the same as you?"

"Absolutely."

"Okay."

Jiang Yi's face was overjoyed, but when he thought of something, he asked again:

"Is the tuition high?"

Zhang Jiujin coughed lightly and said, "Very high." You know that in this kind of troubled times, real kung fu is very valuable. ”

Jiang Yi: "......"

"I don't have any money."

Jiang Yi looked at Zhang Jiujin pitifully, expecting him to give the poor child a little funding.

Zhang Jiujin said: "How many do you have?" ”

"Two two and one money, there were originally two two or two dollars, but one of the dollars invited Lao Zhang to drink." Jiang Yi pinched his fingers and calculated.

Zhang Jiujin immediately understood what the extra two taels of silver were.

That's the money from the sale of this child's sister.

His conscience inevitably became a little more disturbed.

"Two taels of silver will be ...... Forget it. ”

Zhang Jiujin's voice struggled:

"I have a fragment of the true biography in my hand, which I accidentally got when I was walking the rivers and lakes, only the practice method before Ming Jin, if you want to try it, I will practice it for you.

I know you won't die if you don't practice. ”

Jiang Yi knelt down again, raised his palms, and thanked loudly:

"Thank you Master Zhang for passing on the skills."

The first time I knelt, the second time I became much more proficient.

Besides, this grace of teaching the Dharma is worth his kneel.
