Chapter 105: Borrowing the Tiger's Skin to Pull the Banner

Hearing the sound of bangs outside, Yang Jin knew that it was time for lunch, put down the brush and wooden board in his hand, put away the tabletop, and walked out quickly.

The Yamen of the Shenzhumen has a free dine-in meal at noon, and the place to eat is called the "canteen".

When the world was still in charge of the Great Zhou Dynasty, all yamen from the central to the local government set up canteens.

Having officials sit together for dinner to exchange information and harmonize feelings is also a means of prolonging the work of the council.

Since the Great Zhou Dynasty was destroyed by the martial arts people more than 400 years ago, the four kingdoms were separated, but they inherited the matter of the yamen canteen.

But most of the functions of the parliamentary office have disappeared, and the rest is to eat, so it is called a canteen.

For petty officials with low incomes, this is also a very intimate welfare, and the people enviously call it "eating official meals".

Of course, even eating in the canteen in the yamen is hierarchical, especially in the local prefecture and county yamen.

For example, there are two canteens in the Yamen of the Shenzhumen of Pingyang City, and on the left side of the county yamen is the official canteen, which is used by the high-level catchers in the Shenzhumen to eat.

On the right is the Xu Li canteen, which is used by Yang Jin, who has no grade of fast catchers and miscellaneous servants.

The two canteens are one large and one small, but the quality of food and service is inversely proportional.

Yang Jin stepped on the meal and entered the Xu Li canteen, he has always been very active about eating, especially this kind of free and free food, so he can't eat less.

This canteen is also divided into two stalls, one of which is prepared for the economic officials, and the economic officials are the officials who have entered the yellow book of the yamen, which is simply organized.

The outside room was where non-bureaucrats like them ate.

Because Yang Jin is still an alternate scribe and is still on probation, he dined in the lobby and joined those miscellaneous servants.

In this feudal era, the idea of hierarchy was everywhere.

As soon as Yang Jin entered the house, he saw white clothes and black hats in his eyes, sitting around the square tables, giggling, chatting and fart, all waiting for the canteen to eat.

He quickly found a pair of chopsticks in the cupboard, and when he saw that there was still a vacant seat in a table, he immediately went over and found an empty seat to sit down.

When several people at the same table saw Yang Jin, a well-known rice bucket from the god hunting family, sitting at the same table with them, their faces were dark for a while.

Knowing that it was unlucky at noon today, I sat down with Yang Jin's big rice bucket, and I could only mix half full.

They all stared at Yang Jin with unkind eyes, wanting to force Yang Jin away with vicious eyes.

Yang Jin is thick-skinned, naturally he will not be frightened by their eyes, he has a smile on his face, he doesn't care about others' dislike of him, and nods at a few people with a smile.

As soon as the food was served, everyone stopped talking, waving chopsticks like rain and chopsticks like the wind, for fear that if they ate slowly, there would be no food.

Since Yang Jin came here to eat, the way they eat has become like this, they are all like starving ghosts reincarnated, regardless of manners and etiquette.

Especially at Yang Jin's table, eating is like a charge, everyone is waving chopsticks and trying their best to put vegetables and rice in their mouths, like a vicious dog grabbing food.

However, Yang Jin's eating style is different from those of them, he doesn't eat slowly, he doesn't pick up the dishes quickly or slowly, he is slow and organized, and among the people at this table, it seems that he eats the slowest way.

But if you look closely, you will find that he doesn't look happy to eat, but his hand holding the steamed bun has never stopped.

The bowl of steamed buns was swallowed in three or two bites in his mouth, as if he hadn't chewed at all.

And although the speed at which he uses chopsticks to pick up vegetables does not seem to be fast, it is not slow at all, and each chopstick clips the most.

is also specially picking meat dishes, and when he goes down with chopsticks, most of the half bowl of dishes is gone at once.

The canteen handyman who added food and vegetables on the side had long expected the current situation, and as early as after Yang Jin did it at this table, they specially arranged for two people to serve food to this table.

For Yang Jin's big rice bucket, they love and hate the handymen who work in the canteen.

What they hate is that since Yang Jin came, their cooking workload has increased greatly, and there are no leftovers to take home to fill the food gap at home.

Because since Yang Jin came to the cafeteria to eat, let alone the leftovers, he hasn't taken care of it enough.

What I love is that after Yang Jin came, they had a lot less work to wash the dishes and clean up the table, and they had a lot less time to serve everyone in the yamen every time.

In the past, the gang of handymen needed to eat for half an hour for lunch, and most of the time was spent chatting and fartizing, and sometimes even an hour, eating and chatting during the entire lunch break.

They had no choice but to wait on the sidelines at any time, and their heels were numb.

Now that there is Yang Jin, the whole lunch will end with a stick of incense at most, because if you don't eat faster, these meals will be covered by Yang Jin's big rice bucket.

Yang Jin had just eaten for a while when he felt that the atmosphere in the cafeteria had suddenly become a little strange, and the miscellaneous servants who were like vicious dogs snatching food suddenly seemed to be different people, and they suddenly became gentleness when they started eating.

"Brother, didn't Brother Wei tell you in the morning that you should go to the cafeteria on the left to find Brother Wei to eat together?

Why are you still eating here? Keep me waiting! ”

Just when Yang Jin wondered what was going on, Dong Cheng's voice sounded behind him.

It made him understand why these people who were eating had such strange behaviors.

"Brother Dong, why did you come here in person?"

Yang Jin swallowed the contents of his mouth and greeted Dong Cheng.

He explained: "Isn't the younger brother afraid of breaking the rules in the Yamen of the Divine Capture Gate and causing trouble to the eldest brother, so he didn't go over!"

Besides, it's not all about eating anywhere, but it's actually good to eat here. ”

"Brother, you are too worried, you are my brother, who dares to talk nonsense in this god hunting door!

Besides, how can the food here be compared to my brother's, not to mention that I still have something to tell you now. ”

When the people on the side saw that Dong Cheng was about to sit down and talk to him, they immediately took the dishes and chopsticks to other tables, and only Yang Jin and Dong Cheng were left on the entire table.

While eating, Yang Jin asked, "Big brother, what do you want to come over in person?"

Send someone over and say hello, and I'll go find you." ”

Dong Cheng sat on the side and watched Yang Jin eat, he didn't touch the food on the table, and said casually: "It's not a big deal!"

It's the ruffian hooligan Liu Er you asked me to arrest, and I asked me to send someone to get it in the morning.

Now he is locked up in the prison of the god catcher, and before you said that you had something to ask him, I will come and tell you. ”

"Who is Liu Er?"

Yang Jin was a little strange, but after a little thought, he thought of who it was.

He asked Dong Cheng: "This guy is the brother-in-law of the third master of the Black Tiger Hall, the one who robbed Zhang Jinyin and beat him?" ”

Dong Cheng nodded: "Yes, this is this guy!"

This kid is a soft bone at all, and he usually has the support of the Black Tiger Hall behind him to bully men and women, and he is very majestic!

Today, when I saw that the people who caught the door of God took him, he was so frightened that he peed his pants on the spot, and properly coaxed one!

Now I'm still crying in prison and crying out for my mother! Hey hey ......"

Thinking of Liu Er's cowardice, Dong Cheng couldn't help but laugh out loud, he saw that the handyman in the canteen was going to continue to add food to Yang Jin on the table, and stretched out his hand to make them stop.

said to Yang Jin: "Brother, don't eat here, my brother has already prepared it, the food is enough, let's go with my brother!"

Didn't you say that there are still some things to ask Liu Er, that kid?

After eating, my brother will accompany you to the prison to interrogate him together, let's go, you should give your brother a face. ”

Saying that, Yang Jin was not allowed to shirk, so he took his arm and left.

"Since the eldest brother is so gracious, the younger brother is disrespectful!

It just so happens that I also have something to talk to my eldest brother. ”

Yang Jin practiced all morning, and he wanted to eat a good meal to make up for it, but Dong Cheng was so strongly invited, he was no longer hypocritical, and walked out with Dong Cheng.

Compared with the big pot dish he ate just now, of course he prefers to eat the kind of food fried by Dong Cheng and the others from a small stove.

The reason why I deliberately didn't go to Dong Cheng's place just now was actually for this scene just now.

He just wanted Dong Chengqin to come here and invite him personally, so that everyone in the Yamen of the Divine Capture Gate would know.

Now he Yang has a deep friendship with the second-in-command of the Shenzhumen Sect, Vice President Dong Catcher, and he is commensurate with brothers, and he can wear a pair of pants.

The so-called people are hundreds, all kinds of people.

There are a lot of errand men in this god-hunting gate, three gods and four ghosts, and all kinds of people.

Yang Jin did this in order to save trouble in the future, and he now borrowed the tiger skin of Dong Cheng, the vice president, to play prestige, and he could save a lot of things in the future.

No, as soon as Dong Cheng came, those miscellaneous servants who didn't like him before, the servants or something, saw him with a smiling face.

Yang Jin and Dong Cheng went to the cafeteria on the left to eat, and during the meal, Yang Jin told Dong Cheng about Zhang Youfu going out of the house.

But Zhang Youfu left Yang Jin to explain the letter he forwarded, but Yang Jin didn't take it out, and Yang Jin didn't say anything about Zhang Youfu's serious injury.

"Old man Zhang, nothing happened to his old man, right?

He is so old, how could he suddenly want to go far away? Dong Cheng looked concerned.

"Big brother, the matter of Old Man Zhang, to be honest, I don't know very well.

It's just that after a hurried meeting in the morning, he left, and when he left, he explained to me, and let me talk to you and Zhou Zhutou. ”

Dong Cheng remembered one more thing and asked Yang Jin: "By the way, brother, I forgot to ask, have you found all your things?"

Especially how about the book that Liang Yunxiao's predecessor of the Cold Mountain Sword Sect handed over to you for safekeeping? ”

As soon as Yang Jin heard this, the expression on his face immediately changed to a little depressed.

"I didn't find any of my things, Mr. Zhang said that he had found them last night, but in the end he was robbed again.

He chased after him for a long time but didn't catch up with the man, and finally let the man run away, hey......"

In the end, Yang Jin let out a long sigh, although he sighed, his mouth was not idle at all, and the chopsticks were like a wind and clouds, and he ate it correctly.

Dong Cheng saw Yang Jin sigh and comforted: "Brother, you don't have to be discouraged!"

Our brothers are not outsiders, and my brother assures you that I will definitely help you inquire about your affairs.

Not to mention anything else, the news is still very well-informed, maybe your things will be found back in the end!

Even if you can't find it, don't worry!

With He Shaoxia's friendship with you, he will definitely ask Senior Liang to intercede for you, not to mention the face of Old Man Zhang.

With Liang's predecessors' appreciation and love for you at the beginning, I don't think I will be too embarrassed by your ......."

Yang Jin listened to Dong Cheng's comfort and nodded again and again, but he didn't care about saying words of thanks, but instead devoured the delicacies on the table.

Not to mention, these meals are really good, there are meat and vegetables, and the flavor is unique, and Yang Jin, a gourmet, is full of praise after eating it.
