Chapter 227: The Grace of Dripping Water, Return It Now
A fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl was able to put down the soldiers of the Terracotta Division of Sangzi City one by one with her bare hands, even if these soldiers defending the city were just recruits who had just joined the Terracotta Division, but it was enough to shock Zhao Wushuang.
Zhao Wushuang dragged the steel knife, suppressed the annoyance in his heart, and walked in front of the woman: "Little girl, you actually dare to attack the defenders of my Sangzi City, don't you know that we are backed by the imperial court?"
"My brothers and I have worked hard to guard this city gate, and what about collecting some loose silver with the people who enter and leave the city, you go to the other three city gates to inquire, and the money they collect will only be higher than this eastern city gate, not low!"
"You should understand that this is the brothers' hard-earned money, the money for their lives, and we are here to look at this bronze mirror used to shine demons, and live the days of pinning our heads to the waistband of our trousers." Zhao Wushuang said loudly, if there were really monsters appearing, then the first to lose their lives would be these city guards.
As for the matter of collecting money, as long as the armor guards of the city do not go too far, then even the town guard of Sangzi City will also open one eye and close one eye.
The guards of Sangzi City privately collected money, did the town guards make the adults know?
Nature is aware.
It is also allowed, just like Zhao Wushuang said, they are taking money for selling their lives, if there is no profit at all, how can they be willing to sell their lives, the truth that when the water is clear, there are no fish, how can the town guard not understand it.
Hearing this, the little girl also blew up, Zhao Wushuang said the truth, she also understands something, but she sneaked out, it is not easy to get this plain clothes on her body, there is no silver money on her body, and she can enter the gate of this Sangzi City.
As soon as she thought that she had finally slipped out and encountered such a thing, the little girl felt angry, and squeezed her pink fist and waved it in front of Zhao Wushuang: "What's so great about having your back to the imperial court?!" ”
"It's amazing." Zhao Wushuang slashed the knife horizontally, blocking the little girl's way in front of the little girl.
"It is not difficult for me to give you some money, and some money for the decoction and medicine that injured the brothers, and I will let you go, and no matter what, I have to give my brothers a little explanation." Zhao Wushuang whispered, stretched out his hand, rubbed his thumb and index finger in front of the girl, if it wasn't for the last resort, Zhao Shuang didn't really want to do anything with this little girl.
He, Zhao Wushuang, is also a character at the east gate, what kind of ability is it to bully a little girl?
The girl's face turned red, and her voice was very small: "I, I don't have any money." ”
Zhao Wushuang looked at the girl in front of him, his face was full of astonishment, although this girl's dress was simple, but in terms of the temperament on her body, she should not be a poor person, or even a wealthy one among the people, otherwise the armor guarding the door would not stop her and ask for money.
But how can I pay if I don't have money?
Zhao Wushuang looked at the girl's eyes and embarrassed expression, which did not look like acting, and suddenly had mixed feelings in his heart.
The reason why you fought against the city guards was not because of the laws of the Tang Dynasty, but because you had no money.
Zhao Wushuang's face collapsed at this moment, and he could only admit it: "Let's go, let's go." ”
Zhao Wushuang waved his hand, signaling for this little girl to enter this Sangzi City.
"I don't have to let you suffer, I can help this sister with this money, and it's lucky to meet such an aura girl in Sangzi City." A carriage drove over slowly, and a woman in the carriage, more than thirty years old, called the little girl Zhao Wushuang stopped "sister", saying that it was appropriate, but it was also a little inappropriate.
The woman was dressed in luxurious clothes, with big sleeves and gold, and at first glance she was the master who was not short of money, and more importantly, when this woman appeared, there was a slight fear on the body of Zhao Wushuang, a soldier, which meant that this woman had a status in the city, and her status was much higher than that of a small leader like Zhao Wushuang.
"Who shall I be? It turned out to be you, the big treasurer. Zhao Wushuang showed a smile, this woman is the big shopkeeper of the Sangzi City Gambling House and the Qian Village, half of the wealth in Sangzi City is in the hands of this woman, and it can be said that money can be channeled in this Sangzi City.
"There's no need to trouble your big shopkeeper, it's just a matter of scattered silver." Zhao Wushuang smiled and refused the kindness for the little girl.
Zhao Wushuang put away the knife and pushed the little girl with both hands: "Little girl, come into the city, enter the city quickly!"
At this time, Zhao Wushuang's eyes seemed to have a more anxious look.
"Where's the matter, if this money is given to you, how can the brothers who defend the city suffer?" The big shopkeeper pinched a delicate smoking gun, carved with a dragon and phoenix, took a sip, his face showed a look of enjoyment, his lips opened slightly, and he spit out a touch of cloud.
The clouds fell, flowing through the delicate collarbone of the big shopkeeper, and the chest was half-exposed.
Holding the cigarette gun in one hand, and the other hand on the servant's shoulder, supported by the subordinate, the big shopkeeper got out of the carriage at a very slow speed, and walked in front of Zhao Wushuang and the little girl, with a graceful and luxurious posture.
"This is a hundred taels of silver, and the brethren who defend the city are fortunate." With the whisper of the big shopkeeper, a servant held a hundred taels of silver and stuffed it into Zhao Wushuang's hand.
A full hundred taels of silver, which is equivalent to the annual expenses of an ordinary family of five in Datang.
The big shopkeeper's move caused an uproar among the onlookers, one hundred taels of silver, not to mention letting this little girl in, even the routine money collected by Zhao Wushuang and others in the past few days did not have this amount.
But for the big shopkeeper, such a character, this hundred taels, I'm afraid that even a pot of tea money is not enough, and a little leakage from the palm of the hand is enough for ordinary people to eat and drink spicy food.
After putting the silver money in Zhao Wushuang's hands, the big shopkeeper no longer cared about Zhao Wushuang, but looked directly at the little girl in front of him, with a look of satisfaction in his eyes.
"In this way, I thanked my sister." Although the little girl didn't know why the big shopkeeper had such kindness to herself, the big shopkeeper paid the money for herself, and it was a proper thing to thank herself.
"You're welcome, it's also my sister's luck to meet my sister." The big shopkeeper smiled.
"In this way, I will enter the city, and if I have the opportunity in the future, I will pay back ten times the hundred taels of silver." The little girl thanked her again, and then turned and went into the city.
made a promise of "ten times the return", it can be seen that the little girl is also a big family, and she really forgot to bring money this time.
The big shopkeeper appeared in front of the little girl in an instant, and the big shopkeeper also had cultivation, and he was taller than everyone present.
smiled charmingly, and a cloud of smoke spit out from her mouth, which fell on the little girl's face: "I think sister, you misunderstood, sister doesn't need you to pay back this silver tael tenfold." ”
"Sister, as long as you return it now." The big shopkeeper revealed his true purpose, and the beauty was like a snake and scorpion.
And the little girl has no money on her.
The little girl's brow furrowed instantly.
"Sure enough." Zhao Wushuang sighed, only felt that the money in his hand was a little hot, and he could only pray for this little girl, this big shopkeeper was not him Zhao Wushuang and the like.
"This Sangzi City is really not a good place, what the eldest brother said is right, this outside world is really dirty." The little girl looked at Zhao Wushuang and the big shopkeeper, Zhao Wushuang's face was embarrassed, and the big shopkeeper looked indifferent. ‘
The big shopkeeper stretched out a hand and fished it back, signaling that it was time for the little girl to pay the bill.
