Chapter 116: Why are you going in the middle of the night?
Summer melon originated from the Xia country, hence the name. And because this kind of melon is relatively rare, it is also called thin melon and summer melon.
Xu Ersian's voice was relatively loud, and as soon as the voice sounded, the dealer was almost rolled to the ground in shock.
He took off his straw hat and saw that it was an officer and soldier.
"Three coins and a pound of silver." The melon dealer replied.
"Damn, is this melon skin made of gold, or is the melon particle made of gold?" Xu Ershou asked with a grin.
"Look at the melons now, these are all melons from the Xia Kingdom. You're too expensive, I'm too expensive." The fruit seller said dismissively.
One tael of silver is a thousand wen, and three thousand silver is two hundred wen. Summer melons are indeed very expensive, a larger summer melon is ten catties, and it costs several taels of silver, and ordinary people can't afford it at all.
"Okay, pick one for me." Xu Ershou said with a smile.
"How's this?" The fruit seller patted the summer melon and asked.
Xu Ersian's eyes fluttered, and he asked, "Is your melon ripe?"
"As soon as I open a fruit stand, can I still sell you raw melons and eggs?" The fruit seller asked rhetorically.
"I ask you if this melon is ripe?"
Xu Ersan had a loud voice, but his smile stiffened, and his face was gloomy.
The fruit seller saw Xu Erthin's face suddenly change, and his face immediately pulled down.
Shuzhou City is so big, these people with a little notoriety basically know each other.
The fruit seller's name is Zhang Dameng, and there are many people under his hands, walking sideways in this area of the market. The whole market is his territory.
Although the Xu brothers have a bad reputation, they are not popular, so Zhang Dameng is not afraid of them.
"You're deliberately finding fault, aren't you? Do you want it?" Zhang Dameng suddenly looked impatient.
Come to him to find fault
, he's really not afraid.
Xu Ersian's smile immediately stretched out, and he said, "If your melon is ripe, I will definitely want it, so what if it is not ripe?"
"If it's not cooked, I'll eat it myself, and I'll be satisfied, right?" Zhang Dameng didn't have a good airway.
Zhang Dameng picked up the scale and weighed it.
"Ten pounds, three taels of silver."
Xu Ershou's heart suddenly flew through countless slots, and a summer melon was three taels of silver. If it were to be exchanged for wine and meat, it would be enough for him and his brother to vomit.
"How can you have ten pounds? There's something wrong with your scale."
"Do you want it?" Zhang Dameng became more and more impatient.
Xu Ersan picked up the scale and looked at it, and said, "Gap, besides, what you said, if this melon is raw, you can swallow it yourself."
After Xu Ersan finished speaking, he pulled out the knife and split the summer melon in half.
"*** Split my melon, right! I ......."
Xu Ershou didn't say a word, raised his arm to block Zhang Dameng left and right, stabbed forward with a knife in his right hand, and the white knife went in and the red knife came out.
Zhang Dameng collapsed in a pool of blood.
Seeing this, a person next to him shouted at the top of his voice.
"Sarilang! Saarilang!"
At this time, dozens of people ran out of the market, all armed with knives and sticks, staring at each other.
"Officers and soldiers kill people in public, is there any royal law?"
"Capture me all of these armed weapons!" Xu Er shouted thinly.
"We didn't break the law, I see which of you dares!"
A person took two steps forward, wanting to seek justice for Zhang Dameng.
Xu Ershou stepped forward with a knife, and this person fell to the ground with a bang.
Although there were many of them, they were all a little panicked when they saw Xu Er's thin move so decisively.
"Capture them all, and those who dare to resist will be killed!"
"Yes!"
The people in the market are none other than Wang Sanqian.
The brothers of the Xu family were ordered to come to clean up, and they only need to do things, and they don't care about whether they are kings or not.
Xu Ersan took out a piece of paper and looked at it, turned to Xu Sanpang and said, "Go, next place."
elder brother
With lightning speed, the two brothers quickly swept dozens of places, cut down more than a dozen people in public, and arrested hundreds of people.
Wang Sanqian's eyes and ears left in the city were all cleaned up.
This evening.
Liu Ru walked into Wang Sanqian's room, looking extremely urgent.
"Father-in-law, something is wrong, the secret sons we placed in the city have all been killed by Su Xuan's faction!" Liu said.
Wang Sanqian was shocked when he heard this, the eyeliner he left in the city was very secretive, so even if Su Xuan had the ability, how could he clean it all up in just one day?
"How did he know we had so many eyeliners in the city?" Wang Sanqian asked.
"Father-in-law, Su Xuan still can't rest assured of you. Cleaning up our eyeliner now is equivalent to poking our eyes blind. There's a good chance he's going to do something to us!" Liu Ru said solemnly.
"Didn't we make our misunderstanding clear? What does he want to do?" Wang Sanqian asked.
"Originally, Wang Chi was the one in charge, but now your father-in-law has forcibly suppressed Wang Chi, and Su Xuan is so important to Wang Chi, the child thinks that Su Xuan wants to help Wang Chi suppress you." Liu said.
Wang Sanqian had just thought of this, but he was still very confused.
"Su Xuan is so big, why does he want to help Wang Chi? We are all working for the generals, and whoever can recruit soldiers will not have merit?" Wang Sanqian said.
"Father, King
Chi is dull, he has never had the slightest opinion, and he obeys Su Xuanyan, which is far better than your father-in-law. And your father-in-law, you are a powerhouse in the Three Rank Realm, and it is reasonable for Su Xuan to be jealous of you." Liu said.
"It makes sense, Wang Chi is stupid, what others say is what he says, listening to the wind is rain, and he is greedy for life and afraid of death, it is indeed better to control. So, then Su Xuan plans to reuse a straw bale? What the hell is he trying to do?" Wang Sanqian asked.
"Father-in-law, we can't stay in Shuzhou City any longer. Su Xuan cleared our eyeliner and attacked us again, and then we wouldn't even have a chance to ask for help. Now, Shuzhou City is the territory of Su Xuan and Wang Chi." Liu said.
Wang Sanqian was already frightened in his heart, and he stayed in the city all the time, just to resolve the previous misunderstanding with Su Xuan and Wang Chi.
After all, everyone is doing things for the general, and everyone can take credit for getting things done in a friendly manner.
But Na Su Xuan was ambitious and wanted to take over the big work alone.
He really didn't want to go against Su Xuan, but if he was forced to be in a hurry, there was no way.
The top priority is indeed to withdraw from Shuzhou City first and return to the cottage.
At this time, a person came in to report the situation.
"Master, son, the people we were arrested today were all executed by Su Xuan's order!"
Wang Sanqian and Liu Ru glanced at each other, and he was shocked in his heart.
He was still thinking about what to do with those hundreds of people just now, but this Su Xuan did things so simply, he put them all to death!
"Damn! He must have done it on purpose!" Wang Sanqian said angrily.
"This son is ruthless, honey-mouthed, decisive, and not good-looking
And. Father-in-law, let's go now, or we won't have a chance!" Liu said.
"Let's go!"
The two didn't even pack their things, and walked out of the back door of the prefect's yamen at night.
"Two of you, in the middle of the night, why are you going?"
