Chapter 192: Shyness in the bag

The two didn't talk much, simply ate some food, and then went on the road to Haixian. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Long Qingping is simple and a little stubborn. That's why she was able to come to the Central Plains alone in order to find Su Zhuo. This time, she decided to be Chen Ao's bodyguard, and she was just as determined. Along the way, he was really loyal and serious.

Chen Ao walked in front and secretly smiled, he couldn't imagine that he had such a solid girl as a helper, and he didn't lose money. But now there are only a dozen copper plates left in his pocket, which really gives him a bit of a headache.

Chen Ao's moral bottom line still exists, and he will not let Long Qingping steal and rob it. Besides, she might not do such a thing. Therefore, the issue of daily diet has become a top priority. If you don't have money to eat, where will you have the strength to find trouble with Duan Wuji's father and son?

Looking at Long Qingping's carefree face who didn't know what to do, Chen Ao sighed in his heart, he is really a rich man, and it is difficult for a man without money!

It seems that only by thinking of a way early and successfully taking office can we solve the current dilemma of lack of money. But without official credentials, there is no way to make people believe that they are the new magistrates. Chen Ao finally got caught up in the problem of proving that he was himself.

I had a headache all the way, and by noon, I could already see the city of Haixian. This place is not a strategic location, and it is close to the sea, and there are frequent typhoons and floods, so the city wall is simple, only a circle of rammed earth walls that are not high.

Looking to the north, you can see the Yangtze River flowing into the sea, which is magnificent. Looking far away, the vast plains in the east, square fields, neatly arranged, smooth as a mirror. After asking the people, Chen Ao learned that it was Yantian. Seawater is introduced into the salt pans, dried in the sun, scraped off the salty soil, and boiled in multiple stages before crystallizing into white salt.

The scale of the salt works here is not large. If you go to those places in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, hundreds or thousands of salt pans are neatly arranged, and that is called spectacular. However, due to its central location, and the fact that the Salt Gang was previously under the control of the Four Seas Alliance, the helm was located here. As a result, Haixian County became the headquarters of this generation of salt production on the southeast coast.

Somehow, Chen Ao looked at these salt pans, and a trace of uneasiness rose in his heart. He vaguely felt that this trip to Jiangnan was bound to be associated with these most ordinary things. And it's never going to be comfortable.

I originally thought that if I was transferred to the rich Jiangnan, I could live a few days of leisure, and there was more oil and water. However, in the current situation, where can he still enjoy leisure?

The two followed the people who came and went, and entered the city smoothly. Haixian County is not big, but there are a lot of people coming and going. Chen Ao paid attention to it, deliberately observed, and found that there were indeed many martial arts people along the way. Although these people are wearing ordinary people's clothes, they will inevitably show the style of practicing their families when they move.

They looked nervous, not only to hide their figures, but also to observe others, always on guard, not daring to relax. In contrast, Chen Ao and Long Qingping are much more natural. Chen Ao doesn't know martial arts, and Long Qingping is a restless little girl, so when she encounters interesting things, she has to come up and take a look. Therefore, they do not attract the attention of others.

After walking for a long time, the two of them were hungry and thirsty, and they had to eat first and have the strength to think about the next step. Chen Ao saw a small tavern on the side of the road, which was very inconspicuous on the lively street, and thought to himself, such a small restaurant should not cost much money, and there would not be many people coming, so there should be no right or wrong.

Thinking of this, he had made up his mind - here it was!

So Chen Ao walked into the tavern first and wanted a snack. As soon as he entered the door, he was taken aback. It turns out that this tavern is also "full of friends", and the business is very prosperous.

Chen Ao glanced at it and found that most of them were Jianghu characters, shouting to drink again. He thought to himself, presumably these are some martial arts people who don't have much money, and they want to come to this tavern for a cheap price.

Aside from the social problems caused by the Salt Gang Rebellion, this incident has stimulated the development of local tourism, which can be regarded as gratifying. Chen Ao thought wildly, found a seat near the window and sat down.

Xiao Er soon came to greet him and asked, "What do you want to eat?" The shop is not big, but there are all kinds of small fried wine dishes!"

Chen Ao was shy and couldn't afford to eat stir-fried vegetables, so he said indifferently: "A plate of peanuts, two bowls of Yangchun noodles!"

Xiao Er was stunned for a moment, thinking that he had never met such a small number of guests, and thought that he had heard it wrong, so he asked again: "Guest officer, don't you order more?"

Chen Ao thought for a while and said, "Then two bowls of Yangchun noodles and a plate of peanuts!"

The shopkeeper was a little helpless, and was about to leave, when he heard Long Qingping suddenly say, "Another pot of wine!"

Looking at her expectant eyes, Chen Ao couldn't laugh or cry. I can't imagine that this little girl has contracted such a bad disease because she drank some wine last night!

After all, he still had to rely on her help, and Chen Ao was embarrassed to refuse, so he could only count the copper plates in his pocket and ask for a small pot of rice wine.

After a while, Xiao Er brought the noodles and wine and put them on the table, obviously disdainful of Chen Ao's business. Chen Ao didn't care, and while eating, he thought about how to solve the current dilemma.

After thinking about it, only by finding a way to find Duan Yi as soon as possible and stealing the official certificate out can he succeed in taking office, get some money, and solve the urgent need.

The tavern was noisy and noisy, and during a meal, there were three tables of people who had a fierce dispute because of a quarrel. Thankfully, there was no fighting. But Chen Ao could clearly see that these people were holding back the fire in their stomachs, ready to find a short-sighted vent at any time.

It seems that the struggle of interests here has reached a white-hot stage. In line with the principle that more things are better than less, Chen Ao buried his head in eating and ignored external affairs.

was eating, and a handsome young man suddenly walked in at the door. Chen Ao was facing there, casually looking up. I saw that this person was not tall and thin, but he was very well-dressed, with a white brocade robe and a jade belt to tie his waist. The hosta hair is tied on the head, and the paper fan in the hand is gently shaken. The lips are red and the teeth are white, the complexion is fair, the two Daishan thin eyebrows seem to be frowning, and a pair of Danfeng eyes imply a fine light.

Chen Ao glanced at it, and secretly praised in his heart, what a handsome boy, is this the rich son of Jiangnan? Look at this appearance, there is the style of a scholar, but there is a lack of pedantic atmosphere of a scholar, and there is a chivalrous jade tree in the wind, but there is less impulsiveness and recklessness.

I can't imagine that the characters in martial arts novels can really exist in reality. Chen Ao couldn't help but be stunned. Long Qingping looked at him. I was very surprised, I turned my head to look, and I happened to see the young man, and I couldn't help but see my eyes lit up, and my face seemed to be smiling, and I looked at it blankly.
