Chapter Seventy-Eight: Finding Fault
Yunxiao County in Zhangzhou was originally the birthplace of Zhangzhou, and has always attached importance to education, and social studies, village schools, and private schools are generally held in urban and rural areas.
Agriculture is flourishing here, with rice, barley, wheat, sweet potato, sugarcane, peanuts, soybeans, vegetables, fruits and other crops, which play a pivotal role in Zhangzhou. There are also abundant all kinds of forest trees here, including five or six hundred kinds of lattice wood, cedar, camphor, banyan, eucalyptus, mangrove, bamboo, etc., and the forest trees produced are very famous in the country.
With such good conditions in Yunxiao County, the people's livelihood should be prosperous, and the people should live and work in peace and contentment. However, since the Haoyue Alliance occupied Yunxiao County, they colluded with the government to bully the market, and made this place a miasma.
All the lucrative industries here are monopolized by them, and no one else is allowed to participate, and other small businesses that barely maintain themselves must also pay high monthly protection fees, and the slightest failure will be ruined by the Haoyue League.
In Hengcheng, the county seat of Yunxiao County, on the most prosperous section of the city, there is a fruit stall, and the fruit business of the whole city has to be done here, because the owner of the fruit stall is a foreign affairs disciple of Haoyue League.
Not only do you have to buy and sell fruit here, but all the small traders in the city have to come here every few days to buy some high-priced fruits, or else they don't want to continue their business. If the people of the city pass by, they will inevitably be blackmailed by them. Therefore, everyone in the city hates these city tyrants who are fighting for the tiger.
Brother Hao, the stall owner of the fruit stall, is in a good mood these days. Not only is the business of the fruit stall getting better and better, but the little girl I have long been in love with, her parents finally agreed to treat her as a concubine for themselves, hehe, only thirteen years old. It seems that sometimes you have to give these hard bones a little bit of strength, and break his father's leg early, and he will have it a long time ago.
Just when Brother Hao wanted to get into trouble, a white-faced scholar came to the fruit stall, he was quite tall, but he looked stupid.
"Brother Tai, how much is your melon?" the scholar asked Brother Hao pointing to a pile of watermelons.
"Two pennies a pound of silver. Brother Hao sat on the small bench and didn't move, and the two younger brothers stood beside him, so he didn't need to answer as a big brother.
"Are the melon peels made of gold, or are the melon particles made of gold?" the scholar asked with a smile, hmph, he wasn't completely stupid, he knew that it was expensive.
"Look at the melons now, these are all melons in the greenhouse, you are too expensive and I am too expensive. Brother Hao saw that the other party was smiling, and it was not easy to turn his face directly, so he also replied with a smile.
"Okay, pick one for me. The scholar said.
"Okay, how about this?" Brother Hao stood up and specially picked an unfamiliar one, and he was going to weigh it.
"Are you ripe melons?" the scholar asked suddenly.
"As soon as I open a fruit stand, I can sell you raw melons and eggs." "Brother Hao snorted a haha, and he was about to turn around and put it on the scale.
"Let me ask you if this melon is ripe?" the scholar asked again, and his tone was not as soft as before.
"Are you deliberately finding fault, aren't you?Do you want it?" As soon as Brother Hao heard the other party's question, he was about to turn his face.
"If it's cooked, I'll definitely want it. The scholar smiled again and walked over while laughing, "What if it's not cooked?"
"If it's not cooked, I'll swallow it myself, okay. Brother Hao still couldn't turn his face directly, pointing at the melon and saying.
"Okay. The scholar sat on Brother Hao's small bench and waited for him to get on the scale.
Brother Hao endured his dissatisfaction and weighed the melon himself.
"Fifteen pounds, three taels of silver. Brother Hao said angrily, obviously asking for a sky-high price, saying that it was not enough, as if he had suffered a loss.
"That's enough for fifteen pounds, there's something wrong with you. The scholar pointed to the scales and said.
"You're deliberately finding fault, don't you, do you want to?" Brother Hao felt that he had reached his limit, put the melon on the case in front of the other party, and shouted angrily at the other party.
The scholar was not in a hurry, fiddled with the scale, revealed a black stone on the scale rod, pointed to it and said:
"Look, magnet. ”
Brother Hao was dumbfounded for a moment when he saw that he was trapped, but the little brother next to him reacted quickly, and he was about to copy the guy and bypass the stall to beat people, but unfortunately he was blocked by Brother Hao and another little brother in front of him, so he could only take a long detour.
"Besides, you said that if this melon is raw, you swallow it yourself. The scholar's movements did not stop at all, and he picked up a knife on the table to cut the watermelon in front of him, and it was really raw.
"You're splitting my melon, right, I..." Brother Hao finally reacted and wanted to hit someone, but the other party had already done it first.
The scholar directly took the knife that he had just chopped the melon and stabbed it in Brother Hao's stomach, and suddenly the blood flowed, Brother Hao couldn't exert his strength, and he was about to fall down, and was hugged by the little brother next to him.
"Killing, killing!" hugged Brother Hao's little brother and kept shouting.
The little brother who took a detour just now took an iron lump and was about to hit someone, but he was directly scared away by the scholar who made a move to split people.
Then the scholar threw away the knife in his hand and swaggered to the side of the street. After walking for a short time, I entered a teahouse and walked up to the second floor in full view of everyone.
This scholar is naturally Xiaotian, after he and Wei Fengjue came to Yunxiao County, they discussed going to the business occupied by the Haoyue League to find fault, forcing the people of the Haoyue League to come out, and then leading out the stars here. After some inquiry, I set the target on this fruit stall with a very bad reputation, the owner of this stall is not only usually a fox and a tiger, bullying and dominating the market, but recently in order to forcibly occupy a little girl, he actually broke someone's father's leg, just to clean him up.
The teahouse and the fruit stall are not far away, and Wei Fengjue has been waiting for Xiaotian on the second floor of the teahouse, seeing everything clearly.
"Senior brother, you are too light, why don't you stab him to death? This villain is innocent at all, that little girl is only thirteen years old, and he is about to take it by force. When Wei Fengjue saw Xiao Tian coming back, he immediately said to him.
"The knife is not light, and the knife is very dirty, it will definitely be infected, with the doctor's medical skills here, I am afraid he will not survive. "In Xiaotian's memory of his previous life, he still knows a lot about infection and other knowledge.
"What is an infection, is it also a spell?" Wei Fengjue asked strangely.
"If you get sick if you touch something dirty, you probably know that. Xiao Tian replied.
"It's an abscess, I know. Many disciples of Lingyan Sect died after being injured and suffering from abscesses that could not be cured. "Wei Fengjue, as a son and daughter of the rivers and lakes, this kind of thing is naturally often seen.
"Then just wait for the enemy to come to me. Xiao Tian said as he took out a blank piece of rune paper and drew it.
