"I said you, let's go after the competition, don't stand here, no one in the vicinity will dare to walk this road. ”

He turned to see that he was a young catcher, with small eyes, a long nose, buckteeth, medium height, and an iron ruler on his shoulder.

"Okay, okay, let's go. ”

But he didn't go anywhere else, but walked straight in front of this catcher!

"What are you doing?" the catcher pressed the iron ruler, just waiting for him to attack.

He smiled, bent down embarrassedly, and asked, "There was only a big fight below, and I was very thirsty, can I borrow two cents from my little brother to buy a bowl of wine to drink?"

The young catcher stayed for a long time before he took out a pile of money under his immobile questioning posture.

"What do you call the little brother? I'll pay you back when I go back." ”

"Oh, no, no, this money ......."

"Brother Catch is really bold, good guy, well, really good guy!" he smiled and took the money, turned around and ran to a liquor store.

The young catcher originally thought that he would have to fight another game - he followed his father to learn his art from school, and finally was able to compete with the masters on the rivers and lakes.

Why......

He asked for a jar and a half pound of wine in the wine shop, and drank it in his hand, he passed by the coffin shop again, and heard the old man shouting from the people walking in front of him: There are only four coffins left in the old shop, with exquisite craftsmanship and exquisite workmanship, and the regular price is seventy percent and carried away.

He couldn't help but smile and said to the old man: "The shopkeeper, it's only been half a day's work, and the price will be given at one percent?"

The old man looked like he had something to say, "It's unlucky to keep the coffin for the New Year, if you don't sell it before the unitary time, the little old man has to ask someone to carry it away, put it in another place for a few days, and then carry it back after the year." This comes and goes, and it doesn't break the cost!"

Ye Yunsheng drank the wine and said, "In this way, it is better to sell it to me." ”

The old man looked at him and asked, "How much silver do you want to take?"

Ye Yunsheng said: "It's not me who goes to operate for profit...... Four coffins, I also help people ask for the price, and by the way, let the coffins leave your store, ensure the safety of next year, and make money. ”

Seeing that the old man didn't make a sound, as if he was considering, he bent the corners of his mouth and said: "I won't tell you, I don't even have any capital at the moment, but I know that there are big people in the city tonight who are mourning at home and need a coffin." ”

The old man didn't want to listen, and bowed his head to drink.

I don't have money to talk about anything, but that's what I think in my heart......

Ye Yunsheng smiled and said, "In this world, some people cheat food, some people cheat silver, some people cheat beauties, and some people cheat seats, but have you ever seen anyone cheat on coffins?"

"Four coffins, how are you going to transport them?"

The old man was a little unconfident and found another way to refuse.

Ye Yunsheng said: "I'm tired of the store, I went to invite a familiar errand runner, and I sent the coffin to the door, and when I got to the place, I would give the silver to the errand, and you would be indispensable." ”

The old man drank the wine in the cup, thought about it for a while, and asked, "How much do you want to smoke?"

"Can you give me a number?"

The old man held out a finger.

He nodded, smiling.

Some people joked that the most important thing in the Great Song Dynasty is to run errands.

Because the people of the Great Song Dynasty are lazy and rich...... Lazy and rich.

Every family is not happy to cook and eat by themselves, especially in the morning, when they get up, they run out to eat, or call errands on the street to bring some food to their home.

Running errands and delivering food are the most important, and there are also delivery people, sending wine, rice, and miscellaneous chews, but anyone who doesn't want to move at home can call the errands on the street. Even exaggerated to the point that someone gives gifts, they are all sent by running errands.

Many of the errands are from the city, and they know each other well, and they don't worry about losing things.

Of course, if you don't have money, you can't do it, who cares about you!

Ye Yunsheng watched the old man run out and went to find a familiar errand.

He sat down in front of the old man, and beside him lay a cracked, faded, mottled wine table.

There was a pot of old wine on it, and a wine glass.

He shook the flask, looked at the old dog still lying on the ground, touched its head and ears, and then looked around for a while, and the old man was gone.

He poured the old man's remaining half pot of wine into his own jug, smelled it, and ......

There was a sunset on the horizon, and he was sitting in someone else's shop, drinking someone else's wine.

The old man led the four young men back and arranged for the coffins to be loaded into a carriage.

The carriage was a flatbed cart towed by two horses, and it was very simple.

The four young men carried the coffins one by one, two below, two above, and a large oilcloth on the outside, which not only prevented rain but also avoided ugliness, and moved properly, and the old man finally gave a few words.

Only then did they set off, with two horses in front, one leading by one and two on both sides of the cart behind, and Ye Yunsheng led them to the city.

Walking through the corridor into the city, the man in front of him turned his head to him and asked, "I don't know which house you are going to?"

He shook the jar, and suddenly he was reluctant to bear the wine in it, although there were less than two sips of wine left.

- But why didn't you have this reluctance to drink before?

"Just move on. He said.

This street seems to be very long, and he has lived in Chang'an City for many years, and he has not been here much.

The street is very quiet, unlike other small doors, the houses here have deep courtyards, and it is no longer easy to see people's houses or hear the voices inside on the street.

The people who came and went either in chariots or on horseback, and those who walked on their feet were almost all slaves here, and where could they be seen on the street when it was time for dinner in the evening?

He walked slowly down the street with a cart of coffins, and there was no one to see except for four errands.

"Good man, tell us the truth, which one to send to, don't send it to the wrong place...... The beating is small, and he is tied up in the yamen, and if he wants to come out, he has to peel off his skin!"

He said no, where would he say that it was sent to Wei Xian's mansion, and when he said it, the four errand runners would pull the carriage and turn around and leave.

After saying a few more words, a few people came out of the corner of the street in front of him.

The sky is dark, and the streets are lined with high walls, unlike the bright lights in the downtown area.

It wasn't until they got closer that the two sides saw each other clearly.

When Ye Yunsheng first walked out, Yun Nei rested his eyes and looked at each other carefully.

The person leading the way in front was somewhat familiar, a Taoist priest in his thirties, with sword scars on his cheeks, short eyebrows and small eyes, a gutter nose, and a brand-new purple Taoist robe.

Who is it?

When I got closer, even the four errands heard each other talking.

"Since this Iron Sword scholar Xu Qing is a relative of Lord Wei, and he is also a master of the Taiyi Sword Sect, how can there be a reason why Lord Wei has been waiting anxiously because he has not arrived for a long time?"

"Didn't you say that you encountered an enemy to provoke?"

", who eats leopard guts and dares to do something with the Iron Sword Scholar and the Four Immortals of Tianshui?

"It's not a brainless fool! The Hanging Buddha of the South China Sea, the Sword King of Chang'an, and the Butcher of Flesh and Blood, these three are in the mansion, not to mention the heroes of the rivers and lakes near Chang'an City, there are more than 30 people in total. ”

He took the wine jar, looked at the sunset on the horizon, and suddenly said, "It's a wild fox in front of you?"
