Chapter 9: The Storm is Coming
At the door of Wanjia Commercial Bank, Mu Xiao looked left and right. It's really thrilling to think about today, it seems that it is urgent to improve his strength, but it is still unknown who the person who saved him is, let alone what his purpose is.
"Mu Xiao, why are you here? Aren't you kidnapped?" Liu San's voice suddenly remembered behind him, and Mu Xiao was startled.
"What is kidnapping, that's rescue, but the man covered his face and left me halfway, I saw the sign of Wanjia Commercial Bank and came here", Mu Xiao looked up and down at Liu San, who was still worried, and frowned: "It's me who fights, why are you so nervous?"
Liu San turned around and pointed to the six jars of wine at the door: "What about this." ”
Mu Xiao scratched his head with both hands, how could two people take so much wine? And it was so far away, they would definitely not be able to walk before dark.
"Damn!" Mu Xiao didn't have anything to say, and just shook his hand away.
Liu San was in a hurry: "Why are you going!"
"Rent a carriage!"
"I didn't bring any money!" Liu San looked at Mu Xiao in astonishment as he walked towards the place where the carriage was rented.
On the side of Wanjia Commercial Bank, there is a carriage yard, which is a carriage specially allocated for the convenience of customers to pull goods, of course, it is possible to buy enough goods to be delivered for free, but in the north of the Liutan Wine Road, it is estimated that it is necessary to collect additional money.
The shopkeeper of the racecourse is a man in his early forties, and the words "Feng Youjia" are hung on the row on his chest, which must be his name.
Feng Youjia saw Mu Xiao coming, and stepped forward to greet him with a smile: "Master Mu, the carriage has been prepared for you, please come with me!"
Mu Xiao was a little surprised by this, he didn't report his name, Feng Youjia actually knew. Could it be that he is so famous in Tianyuan City that everyone knows about it? This is impossible, thinking back to the old man who saved him, could it be that he is also from the Wanjia Commercial Bank?
"Can you tell me who prepared the carriage for me?"
But Feng Youjia just smiled: "Forgive me for not being able to say it, and forget my son's forgiveness!" As he spoke, he walked to the side of the carriage, a black horse, with a delicate carriage, this carriage looks much higher than the carriage, and the other carriages are simple with two wheels and a template, but the carriage in front of him is different, and the surroundings are all closed, but it looks like a carriage for the rich and noble.
Feng Youjia stroked the horse and instructed the groom who was waiting in front of the carriage: "Snow Louis slippery, be careful to ride the horse!"
Mu Xiao bowed his hand to Feng Youjia again: "Then thank you."
Got into the carriage and soon came to the door of the trading house. When Liu San saw the carriage, his eyes were about to fall out, and he pulled Mu Xiao aside: "Mu Xiao, Brother Mu, do you know how expensive this carriage is to rent?
Mu Xiao looked at Liu San speechlessly and said, "The wine is all loaded, how can there be any reason not to rent?" Anyway, I don't have any money, and you don't have either, so I can only pay for it!"
"Paid?" Liu San has the heart to die, Uncle Hou, the old door-picker, will give money to blame. "It's impossible to pay, Uncle Hou has to die, so he won't spend this money!"
Seeing Liu San's deflated appearance, Mu Xiao couldn't help laughing and said seriously: "That's no way, let's share it and pay out of our own pocket! ”
Realizing that he couldn't dissuade him, Liu San had no choice but to follow behind and carefully climb into the carriage.
"Childe, where are you going?" the groom gasped after moving the six jars of wine!
Mu Xiao thought that the people who prepared the horses knew where he lived, and he replied casually: "Don't you know where I'm going?"
The groom shook his head: "The shopkeeper confessed, he didn't know where the son was going, he just said that the son would go wherever he wanted!"
"Go to the Luoyu Inn in the north of the city!"
"Okay, sit down. The groom lifted his hat and jumped onto the board of the car skillfully.
Although there were bumps along the way, we finally arrived safely. It was late afternoon, and the carriage stopped at the door of the warehouse next to the back kitchen. Uncle Hou happened to be counting the goods in the cabin when he saw the carriage of Wanjia Commercial Bank stopped at the door. Put down his hand and walk to the carriage, bend down slightly and bow respectfully, waiting for the person in the carriage.
Everyone in Tianyuan City knows that the carriages of Wanjia Commercial Bank are divided into: special class (distinguished status, exclusive to the highest level of VIPs of Wanjia Commercial Bank), and there are only three carriages in the entire commercial bank. First-class (a car for powerful people who have a lot to do with Wanjia Commercial Bank) There are not many such vehicles, about 10. Second-class (10,000 commercial bank cars, of course, you can sit if you have enough money), 18 cars at this level. Third-class (you can rent it if you have money, and if you buy a certain amount of goods from a commercial bank, you can also deliver it for free), this level is the most ordinary, of course, much more advanced than the one at the Luoyu Inn.
The second-class carriage of Wanjia Commercial Bank stopped at the door, and Uncle Hou guessed that the person who came must not be rich or expensive, and for him, the most offended person should be the God of Wealth.
The carriage curtain opened, and Liu San looked at Uncle Hou in front of him in surprise: "Uncle Hou, who are you?"
The scene was once embarrassed, and the shopkeeper of an inn respectfully saluted the two guys, which would make people laugh to death if it was to be spread.
Mu Xiao jumped out of the carriage, and Hou Bo asked with a smile, "Mu Xiao, how is Tianyuan City?" ”
Mu Xiao replied casually: "It's not the same as I thought" After a pause, he pointed to the wine on the carriage: "The wine was brought back to you, but Uncle Hou is really a little unkind, haha!", thinking, this guy said that he asked me to go out and go around, but it turned out to be a coolie.
"Ah, it's not right for the old man, the matter of bringing the goods is just a casual mention of the old man, I never thought that you really got it back, Uncle Hou invited you to drink tonight, how about it?" Uncle Hou is a little conscientious.
Liu San, who was moving wine into the warehouse, happened to come out at this time, and said tentatively to Uncle Hou: "Uncle Hou, the money for renting a carriage ......!"
"I don't know!" Good guy, if you change your face, you will change your face, Liu San's words are only halfway through, and the old guy has already run into the warehouse, picked up the account book and pretended. Liu San still wanted to follow in, but Mu Xiao grabbed him behind him and shook his head.
After the wine was unloaded, the groom simply said goodbye to Mu Xiao, watching the carriage gradually move away, and the waiter in the warehouse quietly looked at the door, just looking at Mu Xiao.
"Uncle Hou, tonight's wine ......"
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say!" Before Mu Xiao finished speaking, Uncle Hou agreed.
Liu San muttered on the side: "It is not easy for an iron rooster to pluck its feathers."
At this time, when the official inn was full, Mu Xiao walked through the first floor and went straight to the second floor, but he was blocked from the way when he stepped in front of the second floor. Jiang Qiaoqiao was staring at him, and Mu Xiao felt a little strange.
"Hello Miss!" Mu Xiao said as he walked around from the side, and Jiang Qiaoqiao gently moved to make way.
"Okay" Jiang Qiaoqiao looked at Mu Xiao's back, and thought to herself: I get dirty all over my trip, I really don't know what kind of person he is!
When night falls, the lights of Tianyuan are flickering, and a large mansion in the south of the city is brightly lit. On the magnificent gate, the dragon flying and the phoenix dance are written with the four big characters of "Nangong Courtyard", the luxury in the palace is difficult to hide, the stone pillars are finely carved, the ground is flat like a mirror, and the murals on the wall are lifelike.
In the depths of the hall, a stone carved dragon is firmly embedded in the wall, the dragon head is facing outward, even the dragon's whiskers are so real, and on both sides of the hall are two rows of exquisite wood carved seats, all of which are very valuable.
At this time, the three of them stood diagonally in the center of the hall, Nangong Qiqi was one of them, and standing on his right was his father-Nangong Yunmu, wearing a robe that could not hide his burly body, his eyes were like torches, and each expression exuded a look of no anger and self-authority.
"Doctor Qiu, how is the injury on the plateau?" Nangong Yunmu looked at the old man who was slightly older than him and said kindly, it was hard to imagine that Nangong Yunmu, who looked like a mighty person, was so easy-going and amiable when he spoke.
Doctor Qiu shook his head slowly: "Comminuted fracture, I'm afraid it will be useless in the future!"
"It's really ruthless, Qi Qi, after all, I want to see where that kid came from. Nangong Yunmu's face changed instantly, "Although Gao Yuan is stubborn by nature, he is also half of the Nangong family, and it is obvious that someone is hitting me in the face!"
Even Doctor Qiu, who has been with him for many years, saw his master so angry for the first time, so he stepped back and saluted: "Master is angry, if you find the bone plum blossom cream, Young Master Ling's leg will be no problem at all!"
After the human body breaks the bones, only need to cut the flesh skin, apply the ointment to the broken bones, and the bones will repair themselves within 15 days, and they will be intact for three months. It was made by the royal physician of the Qingyang Empire, and after the death of the imperial physician who refined this medicine, there were only two bottles left in the Qingyang Empire, one bottle was in the royal family of the Qingyang Imperial Capital, and the other bottle was unknown!
The bottle of the royal family, don't even think about it, and it's a needle in a haystack to find another bottle. Doctor Qiu's words are simply in vain, although he Nangong Yunmu is the lord of a city in Tianyuan, he is not stupid enough to go to the royal family of the Qingyang Imperial Capital to ask for medicine for a bastard Ling Gaoyuan, that is tired and crooked.
"Okay, you Qiu Ningzhong, are you going to let me go to the imperial capital to find death?" Nangong Yunmu was furious.
Bang, bang, Qiu Ningzhong knelt on his knees, his head touched the ground and kowtowed vigorously to beg for mercy, trembling all over: "I'm sorry master, I'm sorry master."
Nangong Yunmu glared angrily and gritted his teeth: "Get out."
Qiu Ningzhong was pardoned, and crawled to open the hall with a rolling belt, Nangong Yunmu raised his head and took a deep breath, calmed down, and looked at his son next to him. Looking at each other, Nangong Qi trembled for a while, he had never seen his father so angry.
Nangong Qiqi's body didn't dare to move, as if his father was like a tiger, and if he was not careful, he would pounce and tear himself apart.
The voice of the "father" was like a mosquito, and he couldn't hear it clearly.
Nangong Yunmu looked at his nervous son, and scolded in disgust: "What are you shaking, it's really a shame for the man of the Nangong family, tell me what happened today, don't miss a word." ”
Nangong Yunmu motioned to sit down and talk, Nangong Qi sat down and tidied up his clothes, and told all the details of what happened in the west of the city today.
Nangong Yunmu slowly stood up: "Mu Xiao, surrounded by golden light, at such an age, I am afraid it will be ...... to be able to withstand your blows from the blue waves" He didn't continue to say the following words, his eyes were already full of shock.
Nangong Qiqi also stood up and approached his father: "The person who rescued him today except for the person surnamed Wan in the west of the city, the child really can't think of anyone else who has this kind of body, I can't even see how he appeared." ”
"Hmph, the storm is about to rise, if he dares to show his head, I might as well lower his head" Nangong Yunmu, grabbed it with his left hand, and the chair shattered.
