Volume 1 The World Chapter 266 Bamboo Tube Dumplings

Zhang Haomin opened the iron box and took a brief look, the eternal stones inside were neatly stacked, and each color was full and pure, even better than before.

"You're pretty good at what you do, and it would be nice if you could teach it to me. ”

This was just a joke Zhang Haomin made with him, but he didn't expect Tian Kuan to take it seriously, looked at Zhang Haomin very seriously, and then said solemnly.

"It's okay to teach you, but you have to worship me first. ”

"No, no, if I worship you as a teacher, then my current master will not be able to hang me up and beat me up. ”

"If you don't worship me as a teacher, then I can't teach you, after all, there are rules for doing this business. ”

Chen Kaiyu couldn't help but be amused by Tian Kuan's sincerity, Zhang Haomin now has no shortage of Eternal Stones, if he really wants it, I'm afraid he can get a lot of them at any time.

Just his identity as a free king is enough, not to mention any other immortal martial arts academy and the like.

"How do you calculate the price of this box of Eternals, or have you already deducted it?"

"The remuneration has already been paid, but you'd better count this eternal stone first, don't be less, otherwise I won't care if I find it less when I look back." ”

Tian Kuan was very responsible and instructed Zhang Haomin, but Zhang Haomin was quite puzzled, he hadn't arrived at Fangzi Street yet, why had this reward already been paid?

Zhang Haomin was cautious, or according to Tian Kuan's words, he carefully counted the eternal stones in the alley, and after confirming that it was correct, he asked Tian Kuan suspiciously.

"You said that the payment has already been paid, who paid it?"

"The king's treasurer full of gold. ”

"Shopkeeper Wang, how do I remember that this big shopkeeper is not surnamed Wen? ”

"The one you are talking about is the big treasurer, and I am talking about the treasurer of the golden bowl, that is, the outer treasurer. ”

As soon as Tian Kuan said this, Zhang Haomin reacted, as if he had indeed heard Xiao Ba say that there was a king shopkeeper in this golden bowl, but he had not seen it before.

But this matter must also be the meaning of the big shopkeeper, after all, he still owes people favors.

Anyway, they are going to Fangzi Street now, and they have to bring Xiao Ba back, but fortunately, when the time comes, they will talk to the big shopkeeper about the eternal stone, and the one who should be given to the eternal stone will be given to the eternal stone.

Xiao Ba owes a lot of favors to others for the matter of the palace, although this is also because of the wordless order, but the other party is sincere after all, and if he owes too much, it is a little unreasonable.

Immediately, he put the box of eternal stones into the fingers of the mother and son, and said to Tian Kuan.

"I've already counted all the Eternal Stones, so the accounts between us will be cleared. ”

"It's good to clear it, but I'm worried about it these days. ”

Tian Kuan scratched his head and smiled embarrassedly, this box of eternal stones is quite valuable, even if he has this unique craft, I am afraid that he will not be able to achieve such savings at this time.

It's easy to say that ordinary eternal stones, but this indigo eternal stone has a priceless existence, and he can't afford to pay for it.

"And where are you going now?"

Taking advantage of Chen Kaiyu's time to check out, Zhang Haomin asked Tian Kuan.

After all, he didn't know the way to Fangzi Street, although he had inquired with someone just now, but after all, he was not led easily, and he didn't have to use his brain to figure it out at all.

"I came out to find you, and since this matter has been dealt with, I naturally want to go back to the store. ”

"Then we can just stop by and save the trouble. ”

Zhang Haomin and Chen Kaiyu followed behind Tian Kuan, walking towards Fangzi Street in a leisurely manner, that slow and leisurely appearance, Tian Kuan was scratching his ears and cheeks in a hurry.

He was already tall and big, and when he took one step, he was almost two steps above others, if it weren't for taking care of Zhang Haomin and the two of them, he would have already returned to Fangzi Street at this time.

"How far is this Fangzi Street? I feel like I've almost passed through the entire Jian'an City. ”

"It's not far ahead. ”

Regarding Chen Kaiyu's complaints, Zhang Haomin obviously didn't care, he didn't feel tired at all.

Ever since he had that glimmer of heavenly source in his body, he had never felt very tired, as if he had always been full of energy, unless he was sleepy.

Sure enough, after crossing the last street, they finally came to the bustling area of Xicheng, Fangzi Street.

"It's really a hassle for you along the way. ”

"It's not troublesome, it's just a stop, there are still things in this store, I'll go back first, you can come to me and sit when you have time, just in front of the good conscience shop." ”

"I'll definitely go to your place when we're free. ”

This so-called freeness, like another day to eat with another day, is a distant thing.

After saying goodbye to Tian Kuan, Zhang Haomin and Chen Kaiyu walked around the street, there are mostly shops on this street, but restaurants are very rare, and along the way, they only saw two or three.

"Hey, this Jian'an City hasn't sold this thing yet?"

"What's all the fuss about?"

Zhang Haomin thought that Chen Kaiyu was talking about some kind of shop, but when he looked at it, it turned out to be a stall selling bamboo dumplings.

He didn't feel anything unusual about this, after all, in his previous world, this bamboo tube dumpling was a must-have delicacy for various ancient city attractions, and even many night markets were also sold.

But he didn't know that this bamboo tube dumpling was in Da'an, which was an extremely rare existence.

After seeing Zhang Haomin's very ordinary appearance, Chen Kaiyu couldn't help but be very puzzled and asked Zhang Haomin.

"Could it be that where have you eaten?"

Chen Kaiyu's question really stumped Zhang Haomin for a while, he can't say that he has eaten in another world.

He thought that Chen Kaiyu asked him because Chen Kaiyu had never seen this thing, so he had an idea, looked at the fragrant bamboo tube dumplings, and explained to Chen Kaiyu.

"This is the same as the zongzi eaten on weekdays, but it is just packed in a bamboo tube. ”

Chen Kaiyu glanced at him angrily, this bamboo tube zongzi is different from the zongzi he eats on weekdays.

Not to mention the taste, the origin of this bamboo tube dumpling alone is destined to be different, this is a special food of Luoguo.

It is precisely because of this that Chen Kaiyu was so surprised that in the national capital of Da'an, there would be people selling bamboo tube dumplings on the street, which is simply incredible.

"Zongzi? This is different from the zongzi you eat on weekdays, you must try it. ”

Zhang Haomin took the bamboo tube dumplings that had been split, picked up a little bit with chopsticks and ate them in his mouth, and for a while he couldn't help but shudder, this bamboo tube dumplings turned out to be salty.

There seemed to be pork in it, and it felt so strange in his mouth that he didn't take a second bite.

Chen Kaiyu bought a total of four, and he put three of them into the mother ring, after all, he was so full now that he couldn't eat it at all.

Of course, he didn't eat all three of them by himself, he had to take one to Liu for four years.

As soon as he thought of Liu Si Si, Chen Kaiyu's mood couldn't help but become heavy, he didn't go back to Luoguo, but stayed in Da'an to atone for his sins, how could he not feel heavy?

But when he saw Zhang Haomin, who had no love, he couldn't help but ask suspiciously.

"What's wrong? Isn't it delicious?"

"Well, I can't say it, anyway, it feels weird, why is this bamboo tube dumpling salty?"

"Isn't it supposed to be salty?"

Chen Kaiyu took the bamboo tube dumplings in Zhang Haomin's hand, and also tasted them with chopsticks, this bamboo tube dumplings were exactly the same as the ones he used to eat in Luoguo, and they were very delicious.

At this time, the stall owner who sold bamboo dumplings said to Zhang Haomin with a smile.

"This is a specialty of Luoguo, which is different from the zongzi that Da'an usually eats, and you may not be used to eating it for a while. ”

Hearing what the boss said, Zhang Haomin reacted, it turned out that this was a specialty of Luoguo, no wonder Chen Kaiyu was so surprised after seeing it.

According to the war between the two countries many years ago, the people of Da'an were quite hostile to Luoguo, and it took a lot of courage to dare to sell Luoguo's bamboo tube dumplings in Da'an.

Thinking about it this way, it's no wonder that there is such a small stall in Fangzi Street, I'm afraid there will be no more after Fangzi Street.

"In that case, why are you still setting up a stall here?"

"There are a lot of Luoguo people in this Fangzi Street, and we can eat a bamboo tube dumpling here, which is equivalent to tasting the taste of our hometown, which can be regarded as a kind of satisfaction. ”

When Chen Kaiyu heard this, he couldn't help but hurriedly ask the vendor.

"Why are you here?"

The vendor didn't say anything more, just smiled bitterly and shook his head, after all, he thought that Zhang Haomin and Chen Kaiyu were from Da'an, and he couldn't tell them why.

Regarding the distrust of this vendor, Chen Kaiyu said directly in Luoguo.

"I'm also from Los Angeles, can you tell me about it?"

"You're also from Los Angeles, but how come I've never seen you?"

"I just came to Jian'an City because of some things......"

Zhang Haomin didn't understand what they were saying there at all, but looking at the vendor boss, he was very excited, obviously believing in Chen Kaiyu's identity.

It's just that the two of them have been communicating in Luoguo all the time, completely ignoring the feelings of others.

In the end, Chen Kaiyu looked quite lonely, and after talking to the vendor, he pulled Zhang Haomin away, and Zhang Haomin couldn't help but ask very suspiciously.

"What were you all talking about?"

"I didn't have anything, I just asked him why they didn't choose to return to Luoguo in Jian'an City. ”

"Why?"

If someone else were here, he would definitely not continue to ask questions, because the answer must be the same as Liu's stay in Jian'an City for four years, all to repay the blood debt of the year.

"Twenty years ago, the Son of Heaven of Luoguo, that is, my grandfather, despite everyone's obstruction, insisted on waging a war against Da'an, thus killing many Da'an people. ”

"I've seen it in books before. ”

"The war was very cruel, so after the war ended, some of the soldiers of the country stayed in Da'an to help Da'an rebuild their homeland, which they also called atonement. ”

Zhang Haomin didn't know what to say for a while, and he also understood Chen Kaiyu's heaviness.

Twenty years ago, Luo invaded Da'an, resulting in corpses all over the field, and even once forced Da'an to the brink of extinction.

But at that time, there were many people in Los Angeles who openly opposed the war, so that today, there are still many people in Los Angeles who atone for the events of that year.

It is precisely because of the cruelty of war that peace is so precious today.

Zhang Haomin patted Chen Kaiyu on the shoulder, there are some things that don't need to be comforted, although he is just an outsider and does not belong to any of them, but he understands Chen Kaiyu's feelings.

Now, since some mistakes have happened, no matter how much regret and resentment, it is useless, all Luo Guo can do is to work hard to make up for the mistakes of the year.

Otherwise, one day, this retribution will fall on the country of Luo.

Looking at Chen Kaiyu, who was in a heavy mood, Zhang Haomin patted him on the shoulder and said to him.

"But then again, your zongzi is really hard to eat, and there is meat in it. ”

"Don't talk nonsense, this bamboo tube dumpling is very delicious, generally only when entertaining distinguished guests, we will put lean meat on the bread, you don't want to be satisfied. ”

"Honorable guest, I don't have that life anyway, I'll just honestly eat it with sugar. ”

"Your zongzi here is already sweet enough, you guy still have to eat it with sugar, I really don't understand, how can you people eat such sweet zongzi. ”

"I have the same question, why do you think those salty rice dumplings are delicious?"

The two argued all the way, and soon came to the door of the Golden Bowl Pawn Shop.

The guy in this golden bowl looked up and saw Zhang Haomin who was talking to Chen Kaiyu, he had seen it the last time Zhang Haomin came.

Now it's only a day's work, how could he forget Zhang Haomin.

So, I saw that he hurriedly said to the foreman, and the foreman also looked up, and when he saw that it was really Zhang Haomin, he hurriedly opened the side door with a smile.

"This lord, you are here. ”

Zhang Haomin obviously didn't expect the other party to remember him, but this feeling of being valued is very good.

He glanced at the pawn shop that was still empty, and couldn't help but feel very emotional, being a buddy here, then this little life is really comfortable, and every day is so leisurely.

"Is your chief treasurer there? You go and tell me I'm coming. ”

"The big shopkeeper is inside, and you and the little one is here. ”

"Hmm, don't you need to go in and tell me?"

"If you go back to the master, the big shopkeeper has already explained, if the master is here, then there is no need to report. ”

Zhang Haomin followed the guy inside, and he didn't know how many turns he made in the corridor, and after walking for a while, they finally arrived at the courtyard behind.

"Your secret passage is well designed. ”

Chen Kaiyu was the first time to come to this golden bowl pawnshop, so he was very interested in this secret passage that went around and around, which reminded him of the secret passage in some records, and I am afraid that there are many articles in it.

Since Chen Kaiyu was not familiar with him, this guy didn't say anything, just smiled and nodded.

"Big shopkeeper, the Zhang Ye you instructed earlier is here. ”

After hearing this guy's shout, a person hurriedly walked out of the room in the main hall, it was the guy who was called rich before, he bowed slightly to Zhang Haomin and said.

"The big shopkeeper is inside, please come with me. ”

Zhang Haomin followed behind Fugui and entered the house, at this time there was not only one big shopkeeper in the house, but also two middle-aged men next to him, who knew at a glance that they were important people in important positions.

"You're here, if I hadn't sent someone to investigate, I would have thought you had been by those guys. ”

Wen Ming, with the support of one person, came to greet Zhang Haomin in person, obviously attaching great importance to him.

However, the other man standing aside was not so polite to Zhang Haomin, he seemed to be very dissatisfied with Wen Ming's respect, and even had a trace of anger on his face.

"I was going to report my safety as soon as possible, but I was delayed because of something, and when I finally got free, it was not early, so I had to come early this morning to disturb. ”

"It's okay, it's okay, as long as you're okay. ”

Wen Ming didn't mean to blame, after all, if such a big thing happened, it would definitely have a big chain reaction, and if Zhang Haomin could solve it, it would be good enough.

He took Zhang Haomin's arm, let Zhang Haomin sit beside him, and asked in a low voice.

"The one rescued?"

Regarding Wen Ming's question, Zhang Haomin didn't know where to start for a while.

At the beginning, he swore that he wanted to save Xiaoyao, and also said that Du An, who was in Wangtianyuan, was Xiaoyao, but it turned out to be an oolong, but he also happened to knock on the Emperor of Heaven.

Now Wen Ming asked about it again, but it made him a little embarrassed.

"It's rescued, don't worry. ”

"That's good, just get out. ”

After Wen Ming heard that Zhang Haomin had succeeded, he turned his head and said to the middle-aged man who had been standing aside.

"Hao'er, you can't be so unruly, come over and see your Uncle Zhang. ”

Don't say that the middle-aged man is unwilling, even Zhang Haomin can't help but feel a little unbearable on his face, just in terms of the age of both parties, he is afraid that he has to call the other party's uncle.

Chen Kaiyu stood behind pursed his lips and tried to hold back a smile.

Wen Ming saw that the middle-aged man was disobedient, there was a trace of anger on his face, and the appearance that was still laughing suddenly drooped down, stared at him and said extremely sternly.

"Need I say it a second time?"

For Wen Ming's authority, he didn't dare to provoke, although he was very dissatisfied with it in his heart, he still shouted at Zhang Haomin through gritted teeth.

"Hello Uncle Zhang. ”

After seeing that he softened, Wen Ming explained to Zhang Haomin.

"This is my dog, a single name and a Hao character, if you encounter any trouble in Jian'an City in the future and can't find me, then you can find him. ”
