Chapter 153: Thank you
It rained heavily all night, and the entire imperial capital was washed and refreshed. Romance debuts
There is a rainbow on the Enemy River, but this is not attractive to the men who work hard here all day, and no one even looks at the beautiful rainbow.
Xu Peng is one of these hard-working men, and he has a black mole on the corner of his mouth.
Of course, no one cared about his black mole, after nibbling two steamed buns in the early morning, Xu Peng came to the dock on time, a cargo ship arrived, and he and many people began to help unload the goods on the ship, like a swarm of ants.
In this huge imperial capital, doing the lowest profession is indeed like an ant.
Xu Peng was unwilling to become such an ant, so he made a choice a year ago.
But what he didn't expect was that even if he became a rumored cultivator, he would still have to do the dirtiest and menial work on this dirty dock, so he was a little absent-minded while working.
So the cargo on his shoulders was scattered to the ground, so much so that a fat steward of a merchant ship began to roar at him.
"You waste, no wonder you've been working here all your life, and you can't even move a single cargo. ”
The old steward's words were extremely unkind, but they did not attract much attention, because there had been countless such things on this dock, and the answer was self-evident.
Xu Peng also habitually let the old steward insult him, and he began to pick up the scattered goods.
If in the past, the goods were not damaged, and they would have been scolded.
But today, the old steward didn't know why he was in a bad mood, and the more he scolded, the more angry he became, so he couldn't help but raise his boots and give Xu Peng a hard kick in the face.
Xu Peng never thought that the old steward would do this, and this foot was stepped on.
But he was as strong as an ox, and even if he was stepped on, it was only slightly on one side, and there were no other scars on his face except for a clear sole mark.
Then Xu Peng glanced at the old steward, this glance was very ordinary. But there is no sense of awe.
The old steward hated this look.
He asked disdainfully, "What, you still want to do it?"
As he spoke, he kicked again.
Then, kick by kick.
At last he noticed something unusual, and the workers on the dock came to the old steward to persuade him.
The old steward's eyebrows fluttered, as if he had never been so majestic in his life. The words in the mouth are also getting more and more difficult to hear.
Xu Peng took a deep breath, wiped the footprints on his cheeks, calmed the irritable mood in his heart, but his hands unconsciously clenched into fists, revealing his muscles.
Lin Fan, who had been watching this scene, frowned. Then he put down the big bowl of tea in his hand and strode over.
What Lin Fan wanted to do was very simple, that is, to touch the corner of Xu Peng's clothes.
Through the ability to backtrack, Lin Fan has a great chance of seeing the truth of the matter, but it is also possible that because Xu Peng has changed his clothes, his adventure is useless.
But in the end, the docks are starting to get a little messy, which gives him such an opportunity.
And the old steward was also very cooperative with Lin Fan's actions, he was still angrily scolding, and the chaotic persuasion voice in his ears was like the most beautiful music, which made his vanity swell.
Xu Peng was constantly pulled back surrounded by a group of people, and the old steward said the key question at this time: "These goods are the most expensive rouge." If you lose the outer box, you will naturally not be able to sell at a high price, and I think you will not be able to afford it in your life. ”
A foreman immediately said: "Steward Xu, you see that we also come and go often, and we will pay for the difference." ”
The more this is the case, the more serious Steward Xu seems to be, he glanced at the goods scattered on the ground and snorted coldly: "Don't talk about ten thousand taels of silver, okay, you can pay for it." ”
"Steward Xu, you. "The foreman was a little helpless.
This is clearly vexatious. Not to mention the true value of those goods, the attitude of Steward Xu shows that he is not willing to give up today.
This kind of thing is extremely common at the docks.
The next flow of things will naturally be no exception, and the foreman pulled Xu Peng to apologize. Then the two sides will turn the big things into small things and the small things into small things.
In fact, the foreman immediately beckoned: "Xu Peng, come, come on, quickly apologize to Steward Xu." ”
Xu Peng was pushed down in front of Steward Xu, and his face was already purple.
Lin Fan knew that Xu Peng was already on the verge of breaking out. He quietly came behind Xu Peng in the crowd, and then lightly touched Xu Peng's clothes with one hand, and the picture in front of him began to regress.
In the process of backtracking, Lin Fan quickly saw all the historical scenes of this dress, but there was nothing he wanted to find.
Back in reality, Xu Peng just lowered his head.
But Lin Fan could sense how much struggle he had inside, and this struggle caused his shoulders to even tremble.
Lin Fan frowned, changed his plan, he came to Xu Peng's side, and then pushed his chest with his hand, stopping him from pressing down, and also preventing the apology that was about to blurt out.
This scene happened in such a short time that Xu Peng didn't even see Lin Fan's face clearly.
Lin Fan took out a stack of silver tickets, then took out one and threw it on Steward Xu's face.
The silver tickets of the Zhou Dynasty were much harder than ordinary paper.
With Lin Fan's shaking of his hand, there was a soft 'snap' sound on Steward Xu's chubby face.
Lin Fan looked at the dog-fighting face in front of him, and said softly: "This is 10,000 taels of silver, hurry up." ”
The noisy dock fell into a dead silence with these words.
Steward Xu looked angry, and just as he was about to explode, he saw the number of silver tickets that flew up from his face, and all anger was instantly extinguished.
Young people who can take out 10,000 taels of silver at will are rare even in the imperial capital.
Therefore, Steward Xu quickly concluded that the young man in front of him was the kind of person he couldn't afford to mess with.
And once it was determined that it was someone he couldn't afford to mess with, Steward Xu knew that he needed to be lower, and a smile immediately appeared on his fat face, but this smile was extremely ugly in Lin Fan's eyes.
Lin Fan didn't bother to say another nonsense to this kind of person, turned around and walked out of the crowd.
The crowd naturally separated a way because of his actions, Xu Peng came to his senses at this time, and hurriedly followed Lin Fan, but when he came to Lin Fan's side, he didn't know how to speak.
Lin Fan didn't open his mouth, his current role is just a hot-blooded imperial capital, and he will take care of it, if he is too interested in making friends, he is afraid that Xu Peng will see the clues.
Xu Peng has been in the imperial capital for more than ten years, and naturally knows the temperament of such a big man who spends a lot of money without changing his face.
He didn't want to call such a person a friend in the future, but since others helped him, he always had to show something.
But what can he say to such a big person? After thinking about it, he could only turn into a voice in the end: "Thank you." (To be continued.) )xh118
