Chapter 41: Confessing the Wrong Man
At noon, the sun shines through the thick clouds, and there is no hot feeling on the body, but a hint of warm comfort. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
This is the East Bazaar, the bluestone streets are full of people, most of them are merchants from all over the world to do business, some are rich merchants and nobles who come to travel, and of course, there are many monks.
The streets here can accommodate three horse-drawn carriages side by side, and they are very spacious.
To the south of the street is the surging Dongjiang River, and to the north is a row of brick-covered shops.
Those who wore scarves around their heads and dressed up were often merchants, some of whom came to buy all kinds of goods, which were transported back to be sold in horse-drawn carts or birds, and some of whom were pulled by donkeys to sell their products.
And those who sat in the carriage in brocade clothes and satin were usually wealthy merchants who came to travel.
Those who wear Taoist robes and monk's robes, or strange clothes of different colors, wear weapons around their waists, and have a vigorous spirit between their eyebrows, are nine times out of ten cultivators.
It's lunchtime, and most of the people are hungry and hungry, and most of them are busy looking for food.
There is a Wangjiang restaurant at the east end of the street, the river surface there is open and gentle, there are willows hanging low on the bank, the river scenery is extremely beautiful, especially when the sun rises and sets, the sparkling water waves on the river surface seem to be broken gold and jade, it is really a beautiful scenery in the world.
The whole Wangjiang restaurant is a three-layer structure of thousands of years of yellow rosewood, where a two-finger sized perch will cost ten taels of silver, and a bowl of aged soju dares to sell twenty taels of silver.
If you eat a little more expensive, then forget it, I'm afraid that I'm afraid of breaking a dish, it's all antiques, and I can't afford to pay for it.
Although it is expensive, Wangjiang Restaurant is a perennial flow of people, and there are many businessmen and nobles on this continent who have nowhere to spend a lot of silver.
At the west end of the street, there are several small restaurants built of boxwood, the same ingredients, the same craftsmanship, the price is only one-twentieth of the Wangjiang restaurant, but the diners are much rarer.
There are many hawkers carrying burdens walking back and forth on the streets, selling Nanyang rice cakes, Wuda baked cakes, and cold water and other foods.
A shadow fell from the sky and slammed down, shattering the bluestone slabs laid on the street.
Just where the voice came, I saw a figure crouching on the ground, and the man cushioned the power of the landing just right through the bow leg.
The pedestrians on the road were alarmed by the sound, and they all looked over, pointing and watching the strange man with the ice coffin on his back slowly stand up and slowly walk into a herb shop in front.
Chen Jiannan seemed to have light steps, and with every step he took, the stones under his feet cracked.
The scent of herbs greeted me, and a shriveled and gelding cry came from inside the room.
"What are you doing in broad daylight, I'm shocked. ”
Chen Jiannan had already walked in, and the person who spoke just now was standing up from behind the counter, his mouth open as if he was about to say something, but his expression changed from annoyance to a little frightened.
The man who spoke was about forty or fifty years of age, and he was very lean, with sunken cheeks, protruding cheekbones, a mouse's whiskers on his chin, and two shining eyes, and he looked very shrewd.
The man was wearing a black robe embroidered with money from the left side of the circle with a cloth buckle from the left to the right, wrapping his very thin figure, which looked very spacious and looked a little funny.
Chen Jiannan didn't smile, he walked to the counter step by step, his face was very gloomy.
The expression on the face of the thin man standing behind the counter changed quickly, and suddenly changed from a frightened one to a full smile.
"Jiannan Hero, what kind of wind blew you here. ”
Chen Jiannan was born in a famous family, his cultivation is superb, he is a star in the Xiuzhen world, and there are often pictures and shadows in the Xiuzhen newspaper, and there is no one on the road who does not know what he looks like.
"Say, where is the fat shopkeeper?" Chen Jiannan's voice was very indifferent, with a hint of madness.
The thin man is a shrewd person, he has long seen that the comer is not good, and he has done too many things that lack virtue, and originally thought that Chen Jiannan knew some of his ugly secrets, but he couldn't see it, and he wanted to settle accounts with him.
Hearing Chen Jiannan ask the fat shopkeeper, the thin man breathed a sigh of relief.
"The little one used 500,000 taels of silver to buy this shop, and the fat shopkeeper has moved away. ”
In fact, the fat shopkeeper was in a hurry to escape, and only received a low price of 80,000 taels of silver tickets to sell out of the store, and the thin man only said that it was 5,000 taels of silver, and if he wanted to sell it in the future, he would sell it at a high price.
"Say, where did the fat shopkeeper go?" Chen Jiannan didn't give up, and asked indifferently.
"The fat shopkeeper's family disappeared overnight, who knows where he went?"
The thin man understood now, the fat shopkeeper sold out of the store at such a low price, and evaporated without a trace overnight, and he dared to cause trouble.
"I didn't have much friendship with the fat shopkeeper, and he didn't say anything to me when he left. The thin man added, distancing himself from the relationship.
His eyes rolled suspiciously, Chen Jiannan's hair was a little scattered, and he looked a little unmotivated, it stands to reason that a profound Yuanying Cultivator could not be like this.
The thin man's heart was full of suspicion, but seeing the fierce look on Chen Jiannan's face, he would not be stupid enough to ask.
A weird smile appeared on Chen Jiannan's face, he shrugged his shoulders, and pointed at the thin man and chirped and smiled.
"Don't think I don't recognize you, you're the fat shopkeeper. ”
Chen Haoyu, who was in his father's arms, cried, and the little monkey squeaked nervously when he heard his little friend crying.
Several of the guys in the shop were scared and far away, and one of them ran in to inform the mistress.
The thin man was taken aback by his abnormal behavior, and hurriedly said: "Jiannan hero, you can't joke like this, I'm covered in skin and bones, where do I look a little fat?"
Chen Jiannan had a fierce light like a vengeful beast in his eyes, and chirped and said, "You deceived the poor Dao with the seven-petal Korean ginseng with fruit, so that Su Su couldn't be resurrected, and you still want to pretend that you don't know each other?"
The thin man's heart was burning with anger, and he slapped the counter hard, and the abacus and account books on the counter bounced high.
The thin man slanted his nose and crooked face, glared and shouted angrily: "Don't think that you are from a famous family and your cultivation is profound, you can refer to a deer as a horse." You go and ask, if my actuarian is easy to mess with!"
After saying the cruel words, the actuator seemed to be a little afraid, and hurriedly said: "Jiannan Daxia, you have a holiday with the fat shopkeeper, you can go to him by yourself, our store will not accept it!"
"Poor Dao trusts you so much and treats you as his own brother, but you have cheated me and made me miserable. Chen Jiannan shook his head, the expression on his face was full of sadness.
The actuator was stunned, I'm afraid today's things are difficult to be good.
"I'm going to kill you. Chen Jiannan opened his mouth word by word, without the slightest sympathy in his words.
