Chapter 8 Five Taels
A small, rather dimly lit house.
There was a vague figure in this dimly lit little house.
The figure was holding a knife.
The body of this knife is one foot three inches long, the blade is blue and flashing, there is a sharp edge on the back of the knife, there are three grooves between the edge and the tip of the blade, the blade is narrow and long like a sword, this knife is the famous green sword on the rivers and lakes.
But the knife cut a cucumber.
The cucumber has been cut in half, and the other half has been cut into neat slices.
Each side is as delicate as paper.
As far as knife work is concerned, this hand can indeed be regarded as the pinnacle.
This man is holding a green sword and is cutting the cucumber very seriously.
Clearly, he was cooking a dish.
The key thing is that this is still a very simple dish, a simple plate that can't be simpler, cold cucumber.
Soon after the cucumber is cut, take out a delicate porcelain plate, and quickly spread the cucumber evenly on the plate.
In the turn of hands, I took out a few cloves of garlic that were as white as a fat doll, and slapped them horizontally.
Take vinegar and sprinkle salt and garlic to pour juice, a set of actions is like walking clouds and leaving water, obviously very proficient.
Soon this plate of cold cucumbers is ready.
It is indeed a plate of extremely delicate cold cucumbers.
Hanaba has transformed from a teenager to a young man.
The angular facial features have unshaved and faint stubble on the face.
The current flowers and leaves give people the feeling of being as unphased as they were back then, and even a back can give people a sense of intimacy.
Hanaba brought the delicate plate of cold cucumbers to the front room, which had five tables and a few pots of simple flowers and plants.
Now there is a man sitting in the vestibule, and a man is lying.
The old man lying down was dressed in a long robe, his face was red, and a wine gourd with only a tenth of it was left beside him.
The windbreaker squinted her eyes and snored slightly.
The one sitting there turned out to be a bad old man with a white beard.
This bad old man's sleeves are stained with oil, and if he bumps into him on the street, he is a character that people will not be able to avoid.
Hanaba brought the dish to the old man.
The old man smiled and discharged five taels of silver.
The signboard of this small shop is, Five Taels.
I don't know who set the rules, no matter what you order when you enter the store, it's five taels of silver a piece.
Five taels of silver is not a small amount.
Since its opening, there have never been customers, and this dirty old man was the first one.
Five taels of silver bought a plate of cucumbers for a customer.
The menu doesn't have anything better than this cucumber.
The white-bearded old man seemed to be the owner of a soy milk shop in the nearby market.
How many bowls of soy milk can be exchanged for five taels of silver?
But at this moment, he didn't seem to care about the five taels of silver, but the delicate cucumber in front of him.
The appearance of this cucumber is indeed good, and it is indeed the best among cucumbers.
Hanaba gently served a pot of rice wine.
The white-bearded old man smiled with a smile on his face, picked up a piece of cucumber with chopsticks and put it in his mouth, and took another sip of rice wine.
Whew, a mouthful of wine exhaled gently, comfortable.
The frequency of the chopsticks is getting faster and faster.
Soon there was only one empty plate of cucumbers left on a plate, and a little vinegar sauce left in the empty plate.
The meal was finished, but the white-bearded old man had no intention of leaving, he sat in his seat and just smiled and looked at the flowers and leaves.
Even the flowers and leaves that I saw were a little weak.
That kind of gaze is a bit like a hungry tiger seeing a lamb, like a pervert seeing a big girl.
Such a gaze from the eyes of such an old man is indeed a little frightening
But soon he stopped paying attention to Hanaba, because a man in black rushed in.
Dressed in black but not covered with black veil, revealing a young face.
This is a very handsome young man, with red lips and white teeth, and he is happy and angry.
But at this moment, his expression was a little panicked, and there were a few points of blood on his face.
Holding a blood-stained sword in his hand, he looked around the shop.
He stiffly stretched up a face and said to the people in the room, not to make a sound.
The white-bearded old man blinked slyly, gently raised his hands, and shook his head gently.
This handsome young man pretended to be calm, and his pretty little white face even looked a little cute.
Hanaba couldn't help but laugh.
The young man flicked his long sword and said, the young master kills people without blinking, I advise you to be honest.
However, the fine beads of sweat on his forehead revealed the panic in his heart now.
On the street an hour ago.
A naked man with a sturdy upper body is playing this Fang Tian painting halberd, and he is holding a tiger and a tiger.
There were many onlookers, and they couldn't help but applaud and applaud.
Hey, the new kid doesn't know the rules.
The onlookers consciously gave way to a way.
What he said was that this town was a tyrant, a tiger.
Splash Tiger's elder brother Splash Dragon is the small leader of the Twelve Dragons and Tigers Dart Bureau.
The Ugly Cow Road of the Twelfth Road Dragon and Tiger Dart Bureau happens to pass through this town, so there is a small stronghold in this town.
It is precisely this small stronghold that Splash Dragon commands.
Because he has a leading brother, Pohu is also arrogant and domineering in the town, and has established his own small force.
It's a snake figure.
A kid beside Pohu hurriedly said, everyone who performs in this Niumang Town must say hello to my tiger master in advance and pay the land boundary fee to the tiger master, doesn't the new kid understand the rules.
It can be regarded as a little fart for Pohu.
Splash Tiger pursed his lips in satisfaction.
Thinking that your kid is new, today's matter Tiger Master will not be investigated, come on, little ones, take all the money this kid made today to let him learn a lesson.
A few scoundrels in the back got the boss's order, and they had to take the bounty money thrown by the people around them.
The sturdy man didn't eat this set, Fang Tian painted a round halberd, and a wave of strength rose without wind.
Lao Tzu Fang Tianhua has never paid any land boundary fees for so many years, and Lao Tzu has never heard of any tiger masters, you cubs hurry up and roll for Lao Tzu.
This Fang Tian drew a mouthful of Lao Tzu, obviously not taking the tiger in his eyes.
Mom, beat him up for me, since my brother became the commander, no one has dared to talk to Pohu like this.
A few minions around him got the boss's order, and they also pounced on it with a tiger's momentum, and they saw that they were indeed hands that had been practiced for a few days.
Fang Tianhua hesitated for a moment, and finally failed to stab Fang Tianhua's halberd.
A few minions rushed up with a shout, and seeing the concerns in Fang Tianhua's heart, they were even more fearless.
After all, Fang Tianhua didn't want to cause trouble in front of the public, so this Fang Tianhua halberd really didn't dare to poke at these people's bodies, after all, with his skills, a halberd might be a human life.
Wait for a few minions to get close, one type of black tiger probing the heart claw, one type of mountain ghost probing the foot of the moon, three moves and two styles, and the rest are the minions rolling all over the ground.
When Po Hu saw his men being subdued so easily, he knew that he had met a real hard idea.
I couldn't help but change my breath, this friend is very skilled, and he will cherish his talents since ancient times, so it is better to join me under Tiger Mountain.
In the future, there will be no such street performance, and you will eat and drink spicy food in the future.
