Chapter 427: Rise to Fame
Chapter 427: Rise to Fame
Yi Xifeng naturally didn't know that the jars of spiritual wine that he had faithfully remembered had returned to Yinren Town. Under Lin Hengshan's special instructions, it was handed over to Qingxin Wine. And the two brothers, Zhao Xiaoguang and Zhao Daguang, also knew that this wine was unusual, so they deliberately hid it in the cellar.
Seeing that the delicacies on the table were wiped out, the shopkeeper of Jiuhualou was also happy, after all, he hadn't met such a delicious customer for a long time.
This Xiao Er is also a person with a clear mind, seeing their group, except for the middle-aged shopkeeper who is dressed like a local, the other four teenagers should be the first time to come to Qingyun City. He walked up, and while serving a few people with vegetables, he explained the famous attractions of Qingyun City.
The first thing to introduce is the huge lake in front of Jiuhua Tower, which is not naturally formed, but caused by manpower. It's just that unlike the Yunxi Pool in the Fallen Leaf City, this lake is called "Luojian Lake", and there is a rumor in it.
As soon as several teenagers heard the story here, they focused their attention one after another, this Luojian Lake was originally a wilderness, with 500 acres of white mulberry trees, and from this eighteen miles to the north, you can see the mountain gate of the Qingyun Sect.
About fifty years ago, the Yunxiao Sect was divided into two, and one of them, the Qingyun Sect, fell on Qingyun Mountain, and at that time, many masters in the rivers and lakes wanted to take the opportunity to beat the water dogs. On the one hand, he wanted to get some benefits, and on the other hand, he wanted to curry favor with Luo Yunzong.
Among them, there was a great master from the world, that is, a powerhouse from the Great Hero Realm, who came to patrol. According to the practice of the Qingyun faction, enter the mountain to relieve the troops and drop the sword. But this great master, who is famous for his heavy sword, just went up the mountain with a sword and ignored this iron law.
I heard that that time, this martial arts master was repaired by the master of the Qingyun faction, and even the heavy sword he carried with him was knocked down, and flew directly from the mountain gate of the Qingyun faction to this wilderness, accompanied by a loud cracking sound, the entire nearly 100 acres of white mulberry wood turned into ashes, and the entire land was also cut out of a deep pit nearly 100 zhang deep!
The mountains in the east of the city have been changed, and a spring water has been drawn down from Qingyun Mountain and poured into the deep ditch! Over time, this place has become a lake, and the 500 acres of white mulberry trees have also been buried at the bottom of the lake.
Speaking of this, the shopkeeper said with a smile: "This guest officer, this is also the reason why the white fish in our Jiuhua Building is so delicious! People say that this white fish is transformed by the five hundred white mulberry trees!"
This story amazed all the teenagers, even Zhao Long, who was extremely mature, couldn't help it, and glanced at the lake scenery outside the window.
Yi Xifeng naturally knows that this so-called beautiful legend is made up by the local people with false rumors and wishful thinking. After all, with just one sword to make such a huge lake, even if there is really such a terrifying cultivator in the world, it should not be something that a strong man in the Great Chivalry Realm can do.
After all, the powerhouse of the Great Xia Realm can already serve as the head of a second-rate sect, although he is also one of the dozens of extremely powerful people in the world, but there is still some distance from those sword immortals and spear gods who can move mountains with swords and spears can go to the sea.
"Doesn't that mean that the heavy sword also fell into this lake?" Li Xintian asked out loud when he heard it.
Seeing that this little girl was extremely delicate, Xiao Er nodded with a smile: "The rumor says so, every year many people dive into the lake to look for it, but unfortunately they find nothing." It's ......."
Xiao Er paused, scratched his head and said with a wry smile: "Every year, because of the people who dive to the bottom of the lake to find out, there are always one or two unlucky people who drown. ”
Seeing that these four people were all young men, he immediately spoke: "I advise you not to dive to the bottom of the lake, I heard that there is really a sword aura lingering under this Luojian Lake, and you nobles should not take risks for this." ”
Lin Lei picked up the silk handkerchief that had just been poured hot water, wiped his mouth, and sighed: "If there is really any magic weapon at the bottom of this lake, then it will be our turn, isn't it the Qingyun Sect on the mountain, not to mention those elders with superior strength, even if they are disciples, they will already go down to fish." ”
Hearing him say this, the shopkeeper nodded with a smile and spread out the rest of the wine and food.
But the five of them have eaten almost at this time, after all, they are small in number, and they are all teenagers, and the amount of food is not particularly exaggerated, the most important thing is that there are many dishes in this Jiuhualou, even if Yi Xifeng went to more than a dozen just now, there are still more than 20 dishes.
They had just eaten eight plates and one soup. There are still more than a dozen hard dishes left unserved in the back.
The shopkeeper also saw everyone's embarrassment, walked to Yi Xifeng's side and arched his hand: "This is my guest officer, you see that the rest of the dishes are also ready, why don't you pack them and take them away!"
The white young man's eyes rolled, and he whispered a few words to the little er, the other party's eyes widened at first, and then blinked blankly, Yi Xifeng nodded at him, and the little second had to hurriedly walk downstairs, shaking his head and sighing as he walked.
Zhao Chao, the pawnshop shopkeeper on the side, seemed to see some clues, touched the mustache under his chin, and said in a low voice: "Little Brother Yi, you do this...... I'm so embarrassed!"
"Then Shopkeeper Zhao, can you take care of the Qingyun Sect's trip for us?" Yi Xifeng picked up the spring algae wine on the table and drank it all in one gulp.
Hearing this, the middle-aged shopkeeper smashed his mouth, took a sip of the wine in his cup, and did not intervene again.
......
It wasn't long before the other tables downstairs were filled with the sound of people arguing.
"Hey, why can those tables upstairs eat so many good dishes so cheaply, but not on our eighth floor?"
At this time, the unique voice of the shopkeeper just now said: "The distinguished guests upstairs have a saying, all the guests on the ninth floor will give two plates of Jiuhualou's signature features per table!"
As soon as he said this, everyone was in an uproar, and soon the diners on the first to eighth floors of Jiuhua Building knew that there was a master who was not bad for money in these nine floors!
As the saying goes, if there is a bargain, it is a fool! Just a cup of tea, the entire ninth floor is full of people. Jiuhua Building is a tower-shaped structure, the first floor area is the largest, the second floor is smaller than the first floor, and when it reaches the ninth floor, it is enough to put down nine tables.
It's just that there are still people who want to come up, after all, Yi Xifeng didn't say that it was limited. It didn't take long for a long queue to start from the eighth floor.
Seeing this, Yi Xifeng smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth, and he called the shopkeeper again, but this time he came with the second child, and the shopkeeper of this Jiuhua Building.
The shopkeeper was an old man, dressed in a blue and black robe, and looked very capable.
"This distinguished guest, I don't know what else to order?" the old man arched his hand slightly, but his eyes glanced at the silent shopkeeper Zhao on the side.
After all, due to its "unique" business model, "Yuyun Pawnshop" is still very famous in the entire Qingyun City, at least those hotels and inns know this pawnshop. And the old man in front of him is the big shopkeeper of the dignified Jiuhua Building, and his natural knowledge is even more extraordinary, he recognized Zhao Chao's identity at a glance, and he immediately felt certain in his heart.
The old man has also seen some people who eat overlord meals, ordered a big table, but had no money to settle the bill, although the power behind Jiuhualou is not weak, but opening the door to do business, it has always been a harmonious and wealthy.
"Hehe, I can't talk about richness, tell those diners downstairs, I have covered the banquet on the ninth and eighth floors of Jiuhua Building!" Yi Xifeng said indifferently.
As soon as these words came out, Zhao Chao's eyebrows raised slightly, he knew that this time the internal service team guarding the iron clothes was probably going to scold his mother.
At first, he also felt that the guy named Zhong Rui was a little nonsense. It is indeed a shame to take advantage of the opportunity to arrange tasks to do such petty tricks. So when Yi Xifeng proposed to go out to eat something good, he didn't stop it, and brought everyone to Jiuhua Building, so he asked that Zhong Rui to spend some money and buy a lesson.
But who knows, this fair-looking young man is so vindictive, he ordered two whole tables of dishes as soon as he came up. You must know that this is Jiuhua Building, and it is on the ninth floor with the best location, and the dishes themselves are relatively expensive. In this way, although he felt that this was a bit too much, but thinking about it from another perspective, he felt that revenge in this way was the only pleasure.
It's just that the words of the young man have refreshed his three views......
That's a whole twenty-one tables, and even if those diners can't eat as much as they do, the cost is terrifying! I can't afford to take a thousand taels of silver.
The old man in a green robe, his eyes flashed, and he looked at Yi Xifeng's appearance fixedly, and saw that he didn't seem to be talking nonsense, so he arched his hand and walked downstairs.
It didn't take long for there to be a commotion downstairs, and some people even applauded in unison! Li Xintian leaned out of the window, looked at the street below, and then said with a smile: "The door of Jiuhua Building below has been surrounded by people!"
Yi Xifeng looked at Zhao Chao with a smile, and said indifferently: "Shopkeeper Zhao, the account of the guard iron coat will definitely be returned to you, you can rest assured of this! We will prove it for you, so let's go and settle the account first! Oh, remember to let the restaurant issue a ticket!"
Zhao Chao's face was a little gloomy, although he knew that with Zhao Long here, he would definitely be able to get the money back, but as a pawnshop shopkeeper for a long time, it was all a money-making business, and it was the first time for him to make money in this way, so it was inevitable that he would feel a little unbalanced.
The middle-aged shopkeeper went to the shopkeeper to settle the bill, and it didn't take long for him to come back. Seeing his somewhat pale face, Yi Xifeng felt a little happy in his heart, he could already imagine the expression on Zhong Rui's face after knowing this expense.
This time, Zhong Rui made small moves, making it more difficult for them to go to the Qingyun Sect, so many unnecessary expenses caused by unclear arrangements need to be borne by himself, which is also one of the assessment criteria for the internal staff of the guard iron suit.
So in the end, this matter was troubled, and it could only be Zhong Rui who ignored it, and the money was naturally paid by himself. And Zhao Chao is the person in charge of the stronghold in the most paid organization, but he just pays in advance.
After another cup of tea, there were more and more people outside Jiuhua Building, and many people came here to see the eight or nine floors, which can really be eaten for nothing as they said?
Yi Xifeng saw that the matter was almost over, and called the old man's shopkeeper up for the third time.
"Childe, please command!" said the old man, as he came up.
Yi Xifeng, who had a shy smile on his face, waved his hand and said, "What kind of son am I?
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and waved his hand to the side, pointing at Zhao Long, who had not spoken much.
The old man blinked, arched his hand to Zhao Long again, and said indifferently: "I've seen Zhao Gongzi." ”
Zhao Long raised his eyebrows, and he was not sure what kind of medicine was sold in this white young man's gourd, so he just nodded.
Yi Xifeng smiled, and then said: "Shopkeeper, tell me to go down! Tonight, the entire Jiuhua Building, from the first floor to the ninth floor! All consumption!
The four people sitting next to him, including Li Xintian, were stunned on the spot when they heard this, and the old man in charge, who didn't know what it meant to "pay", frowned even more!
Zhao Long's face was gloomy in an instant, and he was about to have a seizure, but Yi Xifeng took the first step to hold down his hand and winked at him.
The boy with a double knife, although he is a second knife in chasing girls, but his actual double business is still online. Feeling the gaze of his companion and the power coming from his hand, he forced his doubts back.
Zhao Chao wanted to say something, but when he saw Zhao Gongzi beside him, he didn't say much, so it was even more inconvenient for him to say it.
"Childe, you ...... Are you sure?" the old man asked again.
Yi Xifeng nodded, and Zhao Long on the side also nodded. Soon, at the door of Jiuhua Building on the first floor, a notice was soon posted, and three men shouted there:
"Good news! Good news! Tonight, the entire Jiuhua Building, all consumption, paid by Zhao Gongzi!"
At first, everyone didn't understand what "consumption" and "paying" meant, until the people around the notice saw the notice clearly, and then they let out a burst of exclamation!
Then one to ten, ten to hundred!
That night, the name of Zhao Gongzi moved to Qingyun City overnight!
............ Dividing line ............
Zhong Rui looked at the briefing in his hand and smiled slightly.
This hateful Yi Xifeng really didn't come to Xiaoyuan Academy with his goddess, Zhong Lingxi. As the head of the internal logistics team of this operation, he has already arrived at Xiaoyuan Mountain Villa first.
Xiaoyuan Mountain Villa, located in Xiaohe Town in the north of Qingchuan County, is a little farther from Yanlong Town to here than Qingyun Pai in the east of Qingchuan County. Therefore, at this time, Zhong Lingxi and the other five people have not yet entered the scope of Xiaohe Town.
Zhong Rui decided to take advantage of the opportunity of this mission to win Zhong Lingxi's heart. He understood what his father said to him that day, although he didn't think he was licking a dog, but he was the most suitable person to become Zhong Lingxi's partner.
Zhong Rui is twenty years old, four years older than Zhong Lingxi, and for the marriage of the two, he has been preparing, and even when he was sixteen or seventeen years old, in order to better understand the girl's thoughts, he went behind his family and even anyone, and when he was performing other tasks, he secretly befriended a woman.
Although the woman is not alluring, she is gentle and well-behaved. For more than half a year, Zhong Rui relied on his captain-level combat power to apply for tasks independently, and fell in love with the woman.
In the end, after he succeeded in collecting the woman's red pill, he left her. So to put it in detail, the son of the Zhong family's chief housekeeper has indeed been trained, but the woman's life and death are obviously not Zhong Rui's concerns.
