Chapter 116: The Boss with a Story
"Okay boss, I'll pick this horse. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info "Since it was decided, Zhao Ming naturally stopped grinding, and directly looked back at the boss and pointed to the 'gray horse' and said.
The boss was also refreshed, seeing that Zhao Ming had already chosen, he said straightforwardly: "Okay, since the guest officer has decided, Xiao Li, you take the guest officer's horse and wash it well, and by the way, put the saddle on it, well, just take my saddle, I can't use it anyway." ”
Xiao Li was stunned when he heard the boss's words, and seemed to be shocked by what the boss let him do, but the boss glared at him, so he had no choice but to go away.
Zhao Ming glanced at the little second brother who was still shocked, looking at his distressed appearance, he could also know that this saddle didn't seem to be simple, but Zhao Ming saw that the boss's face was light and light, and it didn't look like something valuable, so he couldn't help but look at the boss suspiciously.
The boss seemed to see Zhao Ming's doubts, smiled and said, "Guest officer, let's go over there and talk." He said as he walked towards the empty table with a cane.
Zhao Ming didn't care, he also felt that standing at the door all the time affected people's business, so he didn't think much about it and sat down at the empty table with the boss.
Seeing that Zhao Ming didn't hesitate at all, the boss sat down with him, glanced at Zhao Ming's solemn face, as if he knew what Zhao Ming was thinking in his heart, smiled, and said to Zhao Ming: "Actually, that saddle is not a valuable thing, but it has been with me for most of my life, and I have always treasured it...... Master, you can use it to the fullest. ”
The boss took a closer look at Zhao Ming's outfit when he talked about Zhao Ming, and seemed to be very sure that Zhao Ming was a monk, in fact, there were no longer a few wild monks dressed like Zhao Ming in the rivers and lakes, but this boss seemed to be very sure that Zhao Ming was a monk, and Zhao Ming could see that confidence in his eyes.
Zhao Ming didn't care about the boss's title, after all, he was a monk, and he wasn't the boss who called himself 'master', Zhao Ming didn't say anything and waited for the boss to continue.
The boss didn't care about Zhao Ming's reaction at all, and then said: "Eh, the old man is also a person who has been in the rivers and lakes for most of his life, and he couldn't leave the rivers and lakes in the end......" Speaking of this, the boss couldn't help but sigh.
Zhao Ming glanced at the boss's legs, and also understood something, although the boss is old at this age, but not so much that he even has to use crutches to walk, after listening to the boss say this, it is obvious that he must have suffered an injury to his leg when he was young, so he had to open such a small shop in this barren mountain.
The boss himself was silent for a while, and Zhao Ming didn't speak, and after a while, the boss raised his head and said apologetically to Zhao Ming: "Let the master laugh." ”
Zhao Ming shook his head, he didn't laugh at all at the memories and remorse that the boss just revealed, as long as he was a person in the rivers and lakes, who didn't have his own remorse?
"Eh, I still can't let go of it, the saddle followed me all my life, although it was not a valuable thing, but it can be regarded as a witness, I mixed most of my life and still achieved nothing, and in the end I ended up like this, now I can see it when I am old, this time I can give the saddle to the master is also a reassuring attachment in my heart, and it can be regarded as a real departure from this bloody and bloody rivers and lakes, eh......" said the boss sighed again, and seemed to still have a trace of nostalgia for this rivers and lakes.
Zhao Ming can also understand the feelings of the boss, and he has no doubts about the boss's words, so he thought about it and took out a silver ticket of fifty taels from his arms and said, "I don't know if it's enough money?" Of course, Zhao Ming will not say that he used this money to buy the boss's saddle, he can also see that the boss values his saddle, even if it is not necessarily a valuable thing, but after all, this is a thought of others, just like a jade seal, if the price of the truth itself as long as there are small assets, people should be able to get one, but who dares to blatantly get it, this is the meaning beyond its own value.
The boss was very grateful to Zhao Ming for not saying it directly, and he didn't be polite to Zhao Ming, so he directly put away the silver ticket.
Zhao Ming didn't care, after all, this was for the boss, nodded and said, "No, boss, do you have a guest room here, I still have to wait for a few friends here, maybe I have to stay for a few days." ”
When the boss heard Zhao Ming's words, he didn't hesitate at all and said: "There is nothing else here, you can still entertain a little food and accommodation, master, you can live, and the little second child will let Xiao Lizi prepare." As he spoke, he went out on crutches, shouting the name of the shopkeeper as he walked.
Zhao Ming smiled and didn't care, put down his burden from the centering stick, looked around and was not in a hurry, and was ready to wait for the shopkeeper to come over and order.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for the shopkeeper to come back again.
"Guest, your room is ready, and your horse is also in the stable, but the shopkeeper said that you are not leaving today, so the little one will still tie your horse inside, which is the white horse, and prevent others from leading the wrong one. ”
As he spoke, the shopkeeper pointed to the white horse in the stable.
Zhao Ming didn't pay attention to it after looking at it, although it was a little different from the image of the 'gray horse' before, Zhao Ming could still vaguely see that this was the horse he chose just now.
Zhao Ming nodded and didn't say anything, as for the saddle, he didn't care much about it, after all, this is a piece of people's hearts, even if he is not satisfied, it is a big deal to change it in the next place, and it is not bad for Zhao Ming to change the saddle.
Seeing that Zhao Ming had already seen it, the shopkeeper bent over and was about to greet the other guests, at this time Zhao Ming said: "Little second brother, wait a minute, you go get me some to eat, well, and then get the altar bar." Zhao Ming thought about it and let the shopkeeper get the jar wine, Zhao Ming now feels that he is a little obsessed with the taste of this wine, he never drank alcohol before, but since he came here, he has gradually liked drinking, maybe there are not so many drinks in this world in the future, and it is no wonder that everyone likes to drink.
The shopkeeper heard Zhao Ming's words and hurriedly went back to the kitchen to prepare, now it can be said that Zhao Ming is the most distinguished guest for him, he knows how expensive his boss is to the saddle, but this time he gave it to the monk, although the shopkeeper can't understand the reason, but it is enough for him to take care of Zhao Ming, and people are so generous, the shopkeeper will not let go of Zhao Ming's 'local tyrant' so easily.
Zhao Ming's came up quickly, and Zhao Ming couldn't help but sigh that the shopkeeper still had a bit of eyesight.
But Zhao Ming's dishes came up, and those people outside were not happy, just now you said that you have something to do, you can forgive it, after all, such a person can't be busy even a shopkeeper, and not every person in the rivers and lakes is short-tempered, and people can understand these things, but Zhao Ming just sat down and put all the dishes on the table, and he sat for a long time and served a pot of tea, this gap is a little too big, even Zhao Ming himself can't stand it, just like Zhao Ming met Zhuo Bufan last time, this will have a little opinion in anyone's heart.
"Shopkeeper, what do you mean, why haven't we been on for half a day?" At this time, another bearded man was unhappy, he was originally angry at this shopkeeper for half a day without greeting, but now seeing Zhao Ming drinking and eating meat here, he can only drink the northwest wind, which he can still stand, and the boss is not there, of course, he will question this shopkeeper.
"Guest officer, wait a minute, this is already being done later, it will be fine right away...... the shop Xiaoer laughed while pouring tea for the big man.
How could the big man listen to the words of the shopkeeper, and knocked over the teapot of the shopkeeper with one palm, and saw that it was about to hit the shopkeeper's chest, Zhao Ming shook his head and pointed at it, and suddenly there was an extra hole in the big man's hand.
Although Zhao Ming didn't want to get involved in these trivial matters, after all, the shopkeeper had taken care of himself respectfully for so long, and this was also considered to be angry for himself, how could Zhao Ming let him be injured again.
