Chapter 540: The Wise
Qian Qingjian walked all the way, sang all the way, and after singing "The King Called Me to Patrol the Mountain" and then sang "On the Moon", he was not afraid of any lonely ghosts and ghosts on the night road, as long as there was no assistant police and urban management of the Heavenly Eagle Sect or something.

The good singing does not stop, and the hot love songs are sung until dawn. At dawn, a market town appeared in the distance.
When the bowels in his stomach sounded, Qian Qingjian couldn't sing, not only because he felt hungry and thirsty after walking this night's long journey, but also because he thought of one thing - he had no money.
If you have money, you can go all over the world, but you can't move an inch without money.
This phrase does not apply only to the legendary period 1960-1970, when the Red Guards, who had no money, could run around by train, go hungry everywhere, and have a place to stay.
Except for this unprecedented decade, it seems that no time without money is possible. On the edge of the market town of the Yuan Dynasty, Qian Qingjian, who had no money, certainly couldn't do it.
"Good habits kill people!" Qian Qingjian thought with a sad face, in Yin Susu's room, he only met his immediate needs without covering his body, but why didn't he rummage through the cabinets and steal some money?
It seems that in the original work of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", Yin Susu was a female trench of 2,000 taels of gold as soon as she made a move, and there must be money in her room! Even if she has no money, she can live a nourishing life by stealing a few pieces of jewelry from her, why didn't she think of it?
Qian Qingjian suddenly had an urge to slap himself twice, but considering that the strength of this body was relatively strong, he finally didn't slap it.
If you don't have any money, you still have to go, so if you can't do it, you can find a poor man to change your clothes and beg along the street, and you can't starve to death, right? But this is likely to be severely attacked by the beggars; or follow the example of Li Su in "Zhenguan Da Idler", find a rich man and renovate a flush toilet for others? However, is this reliable?
The cranky Qian Qingjian walked into the street of the market town, a steamed bun shop on the street was already open, and the smell of fragrant meat buns stimulated his sense of smell, he couldn't help but get together with the bun shop, well, it's good to smell the meat.
"Yo, you're here, please come inside!" The owner of the bun shop ran out in a hurry, bent over, and stretched out his hand to the house, with a smile on his face, and more wrinkles than the folds of the bun.
Qian Qingjian looked left and right, and made sure that the boss of the bun was letting himself, so he said embarrassedly: "What, I didn't ...... Didn't bring any money. ā
"Ouch! You always scold me? It is the honor of the small shop that you come to eat with me, and if you can't invite you, how dare you still take your money? If you don't eat this steamed bun, the small shop will be closed. ā
The shopkeeper hurriedly wiped his hands on the cloth towel on his shoulder, then reached out and took Qian Qingjian's arm, let him into the house, wiped the table and wiped the stool with his hands and feet, and then invited Qian Qingjian to sit down, and brought a basket of steamed buns over and put it on the table; "This is the new recipe of the small shop, the Lin'an crab roe big bun made of it, you always try it, but unfortunately there is no wine in the small shop, and the small one will be sold for you......"
Qian Qingjian was a little confused, what do these mean? Could it be that the owner of this shop knows me? Or does he regard me as an acquaintance? Dude has just crossed over, so it is impossible for there to be an acquaintance!
However, in this case, if you insist on not eating steamed buns, and tell the other party that you have recognized the wrong person, Qian Qingjian can't do this kind of thing. Even if the other party misunderstands, you must eat this meal first.
Therefore, he waved his hand and said, "You don't need to buy wine, you sit down, I have something to ask you." ā
"Then such a small one will obey your old command. It's really not good hospitality!" The shopkeeper didn't dare to disobey, and immediately sat down opposite Qian Qingjian, with only half of his butt on the stool, and his upper body was straight.
It seems that it is not only the officials of the Republic who sit like this when they meet their superiors, but also the shopkeepers in this town. Qian Qingjian, who had read the official text of the pie, felt a lot of emotion, touched a bun and took a bite, and praised: "Well......!
At this time, another guest came outside, who seemed to be an early riser, and walked into the steamed bun shop, sat down at a table in the corner, and did not speak to order, waiting for the man in the shop to come and ask.
Qian Qingjian didn't care about the farmer, swallowed the fragrant bun filling, and asked, "What kind of place is this......?"
To survive in this world, it is not enough to rely on a few inferences from the Heavenly Aquila Sect, at least to confirm the guess in your heart, and there are many things that cannot be guessed to ask. Since this boss is so respectful, it is only fitting to ask him these questions.
He is not afraid that the owner of this shop will find out through his question that he is not an acquaintance, anyway, you forced me to eat the buns, who is to blame for you by recognizing the wrong person? I don't take the initiative to find out about this matter, and I can't blame me.
The shopkeeper didn't seem to care about the strangeness of his questions, and answered them truthfully one by one, Qian Qingjian listened and ate at the same time, and when a basket of steamed buns was eaten, he basically understood the general situation of the world.
The shopkeeper said that it is now the Yuan Dynasty, but he does not know what the emperor is, but the shopkeeper knows that this day is the eighteenth day of the first month of the second year of the Yuan Dynasty, this place belongs to Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces, four hundred miles to the east is Lin'an Mansion, and more than 100 miles to the west is Huizhou Mansion.
Qian Qingjian couldn't understand where Huizhou Mansion was in modern China, but he knew that the main altar of the Heavenly Eagle Sect was near Huizhou Mansion, and he also knew that Lin'an Mansion was Hangzhou, so he asked the shopkeeper what mountains Huizhou Mansion had, and the shopkeeper smiled and pointed to the black eagle on Qian Qingjian's chest, and said, "That's your old Xianxiang Covered Boat Mountain." ā
At this point, Qian Qingjian had basically figured out what he wanted to know, and he roughly guessed that it was not the owner of the store who recognized the wrong person, but the black eagle in his chest that played a role. It seems that the uniforms of the Heavenly Eagle Sect are very good in this area!
It's definitely useless to ask the owner of this shop about other things, and those who buy steamed buns won't understand things in the martial arts, even if it's Wu Daotong, who sells baked cakes in "Chivalrous Travel", he won't expose himself as a martial arts person in front of outsiders.
He sent the shopkeeper to solicit business, a basket of steamed buns was not full, he asked for a second cage, this meal must be full, even if the food is supported, he does not hesitate, the next meal does not know where it is, can not live in someone's steamed bun shop, right?
He ate more, and the meal was much longer than the average diner, and inadvertently, the sky outside became brighter, the market town became lively, and there were more customers in the store.
Suddenly, after Qian Qing's fitness, two guests argued, one said: "We worked hard all night, and we won Wang Laosan's jar of wine, you want to drink it now, but I still have to take half of mine to exchange for money, let's share it half of each person, you drink your own wine, I won't suffer." ā
The other said: "How to divide this wine? There is no wine here, your wine gourd can hold seven catties, I will lose if I pour you a gourd, if you pour half a gourd, you must not follow the ......" Speaking of this, he pointed to the vinegar dish in front of him and said: "It's better for the two of us to have a plate for each person, and drink it." ā
The man before shook his head and said, "I said that I want to exchange it for money, don't drink it!" He turned his head to look at a noodle scoop on the shop owner's noodle table, and asked, "Boss, how many catties of wine can you hold in this noodle scoop?"
The shopkeeper obviously knew that these two were not easy to mess with, so he smiled and said, "Three catties, if you two need it, just use it." ā
Another person smiled and said, "A three-pound scoop and a seven-pound gourd, how can you divide two five-pound wines?" The implication is that this jar of wine is ten catties.
Other customers in the store also said, "This wine didn't score." "Obviously, I also know that a jar of wine is ten catties.
In this way, the guest who advocated sharing the wine was gone, and when he saw that his companion had opened the mud seal, he wanted to stop it but had no reason.
Qian Qingjian's heart moved, and he turned his head to look at the guest who advocated drinking and said: "Who said that I can't divide it? I can divide this wine into two parts, each part is exactly five catties, if you don't believe it, we might as well gamble." ā
This is really a coincidence, and now this situation is exactly the same as the allusion of "Han Xin divides the oil", and "Han Xin divides the oil" in modern China, which is an interesting problem in primary school mathematics. Half a month before Qian Qingjian was struck by lightning, he had just solved this problem in his cousin's summer vacation homework for his cousin's son, and he also went to Du Niang to search for it before he solved it.
The reason why he wants to make a bet with this person now is that he wants to win some money and take it with him, so that he will not be struggling to leave this bun shop.
That person was originally a gambler, and his eyes were still red after rolling the dice all night, so he naturally didn't believe that Qian Qingjian had this ability, so he agreed to the gamble on the spot, and the bet was the value of this half jar of wine, one hundred and fifty copper coins. Drink again after winning, this is double the gain, why not?
Qian Qingjian had already won the battle, and in front of everyone's eyes, he stood up, and the two of them saw the black eagle on his chest, and suddenly changed color, and it was too late to say that he would not gamble.
But seeing that Qian Qingjian was unhurried to find the shopkeeper to ask for an oil funnel to insert on another person's empty gourd, and began to divide the wine - first poured three catties from the jar to fill a scoop, then poured it into the gourd, poured another three catties into the gourd, and then poured three catties into the scoop, and then used the scoop to fill the gourd, and at this time there were just two catties of wine left in the scoop.
Then Qian Qingjian poured the seven catties of wine in the gourd back into the wine jar, then poured the two catties in the scoop into the gourd, and poured three catties from the jar into the scoop, everyone understood.
Two catties in the gourd plus three catties newly poured into the scoop, exactly five catties!
The owner and all the diners applauded Qian Qingjian's wisdom, and no one noticed that the farmer who had arrived earlier in the corner had not eaten a single bite of the bun, but was also nodding slightly.
The gambler wept and obediently handed over one or two halves of silver, which was exactly equivalent to one hundred and fifty copper coins, that is, half a consistent amount. Of course, this conversion was also told to Qian Qingjian by the store owner early on.
I don't know if the gambler who lost the bet was born righteous, or because of the black eagle on Qian Qingjian's chest, anyway, after he handed over the silver to Qian Qingjian, he poured a scoop of wine for Qian Qingjian, saying that he was filial piety to the wise.
Qian Qingjian was not polite, he took the wine and tasted it, and felt that the taste was similar to the cooking wine in his modern home for stir-frying, it was not delicious and the degree was low, but he was drenched in cold sweat from yesterday to now, and walked all the way down, although he filled his stomach, but he did not drink water - people here are not in the habit of drinking boiled water, okay, just drink this wine as water.
After drinking and eating, before leaving the bun shop, the shopkeeper took out a tael of silver and gave it to Qian Qingjian, this time Qian Qingjian said that he would not accept anything, whether it was a pretending Heavenly Eagle Sect disciple or an authentic Heavenly Eagle Sect, he shouldn't bully other people like this, right?
The boss insisted on giving, and in the end, the boss gave Qian Qingjian another fifty copper coins.
