Chapter Seventy-Four: Diao Squire's Soft and Hard Talents, Clever Villains

After all, Cheng Erye is cunning and old-fashioned, although he was angry, he still covered it up, scrutinized a few words in his stomach, and then put on the appearance of an older brother who is not sensible about educating his younger brother, and said in a reproachful tone: "You have come from afar and don't understand the rules here. There are rules everywhere, and there are rules here. This rule is etiquette. As the saying goes, 'morality is righteous, incivility is not possible'. When he said this, he paused and looked at Yu Yan and the others.

Yu Yan was making tea at this time, and everyone focused all their attention on the tea bowl in front of Yu Yan, only Zhao Jing was a little surprised to hear that this vulgar squire actually said the words in the "Book of Rites", so he raised his head and glanced at Cheng Erye.

Cheng Erye saw Zhao Jing's surprised expression and thought that his words just woke him up, he felt that his words were used just right, even if the other seven people treated him as nothing, but he was still very satisfied with what he had just said, and continued: "I think you are from the capital, right?"

Zhao Jing looked up at him again.

"I've been to the capital too. Cheng Erye said confidently, "I have rushed to your temple fair, and I have also drunk your tea." Don't look at your feet at the feet of the Son of Heaven, but the 'ceremony' in the teahouse is not as comprehensive as ours. ”

Tea tasting is required in a quiet and elegant environment. As Cheng Erye spoke, he circled around the table where Yu Yan and the others were sitting, and did not give Yu Yan a clean place at all. Li Shaoxi finally couldn't stand his clamour, slapped the table, and said: "Ceremony? Is it a ceremony to come first and then come? Since you recognize the ceremony, what are you talking about!"

Cheng Erye didn't expect someone to dare to scold him like this, his throat choked, and he gasped for breath for a long time. He was about to have a seizure, but was pulled by a man behind him.

This person came with Cheng Erye, and everyone in the town knew that he was Cheng Erye's cronies, and called him "Mr. Luo". This Mr. Luo is different from Cheng Erye, his face is narrow and long, and a pair of eyebrows stand up - if he grows horizontally, he can't grow on this narrow face. Mr. Luo saw that Yu Yan and they seemed to have a very good background, and he also understood that Cheng Er Ye could not lose face, so he hurriedly stepped forward to play a round and said: "Little brothers, this master is Cheng Er Ye, he has the ability to reach out to the sky here, he is an old man with a bold nature, and his favorite thing is to make friends from all walks of life." If you are new to us, if you can be appreciated by our Second Master Cheng, you will be able to have a smooth sail in the entire Wujiang region in the future. Then his eyes widened again, and he said in a threatening tone, "I kindly remind you a few words, our Second Master Cheng has clear grievances, and if someone dares to disturb his old man's prosperity, the consequences will be very serious." ”

Zhao Jing said: "You are long-winded. ”

Cheng Er Ye shouted strangely: "I, Cheng someone, am also benevolent and righteous today, if something happens in the future, you can't buy regret medicine." Then he sneered twice and turned to leave.

The shopkeeper of the teahouse knew that this Cheng Er Ye would definitely come back to regain face, so he hurriedly persuaded Cheng Er Ye, turned to Yu Yan and said, "Everyone has come from afar, do you know that there is a place of interest in our place, called the Rainbow Pavilion, and the little one will take you to visit it in person now?"

Li Shaoxi said: "We will go to the Rainbow Pavilion, but not now." ”

Mr. Luo also said: "You might as well give up your seat, sell me a face, and please Cheng Erye." Behold you are young, and at my age you are the same age as your father......"

Zhao Jing slapped the table and stood up with Zhao Wei, Li Shaoxi also stood up and pointed at Mr. Luo's face, and said angrily: "Presumptuous!

Mr. Luo was stunned, and he offended them for some reason.

Cheng Erye sneered: "Little doll, I don't care who comes first and who comes later, but here, whoever dares to pestle me, I won't let anyone go." He deliberately cut the last sentence to the core, putting on a fierce appearance to show his status here. But Li Shaoxi pressed Zhao Jing's chest with his hand, Zhao Ying also pulled Zhao Wei to sit down, Yu Yan poured a cup of tea and handed it to Yao'er with both hands, and said, "The first cup will be given to you first." Yao'er smiled and stretched out her hand to take it, Wu You held his hand on the hilt of the knife, looked at the teacup in front of him, and Xiao Shan grabbed the teapot in front of Yu Yan, poured a full cup of tea for everyone present, and said, "Drink some water to dissipate your anger." "In short, the eight people didn't pay attention to Second Master Cheng anymore.

Cheng Erye, who was left aside, saw that his intimidation was useless, his nose was crooked, and he shouted: "It's true that you came early, but the shopkeeper of this teahouse is unwilling to entertain, can you still sit here with your face on your face?"

The shopkeeper of the teahouse was in a dilemma, knowing that he couldn't afford to provoke both ends, and finally weighed it again and again, thinking that even if Yu Yan and they had a big background, after all, they were also outsiders and did not live in the place for a long time, and Cheng Er Ye was a big tree in Wuzhen, and he would have to rely on his snort to live in the future, so he had to step forward and smile at Yu Yan and them: "A few masters, the small shop is remote, I'm afraid I have neglected a few masters, a few masters should move to other places, it can be regarded as a lot of mercy and pity." ”

Yu Yan took a sip of tea before saying to Li Shaoxi and the others, "Do you want to run a tea shop?"

Before the other people could speak, Zhao Wei and Xiaoshan rushed to say, "Great, it must be fun to open a tea shop." Then he asked, "Do my sisters think the same way?"

Yao'er said: "The scenery here is beautiful, the spring water is delicious, and it is indeed suitable for opening a tea shop." ”

Zhao Ying said: "But we haven't been a tea doctor." ”

Wu You smiled and said: "Brother Yu's proposal is very good, I, Wu You, recommended myself to be this tea doctor." ”

Zhao Jing said: "We should first redecorate the entire tea shop and set up a few private rooms. Li Shaoxi thought about it first, and felt that this move could deal a good blow to Cheng Erye's arrogance, and he also agreed. He said to the shopkeeper of the tea shop: "Shopkeeper, you have opened a price for this tea shop, and we bought it." ”

Cheng Erye's stomach was angry, his little eyes rolled, he had already made a small abacus in his belly, and before the shopkeeper answered, he said first: "What a big breath, then I'll make a price." ”

Zhao Jing said: "We buy a tea shop, and you are not the shopkeeper, why should you make a price." ”

Cheng Erye sneered: "In Wuzhen, from selling underground to selling needles, it's not up to me to decide which one! ”

"And how much do you sell?" Wu You said. He said in his heart that if someone pays for your life, it will be enough to pay only five copper plates.

"Eight ......" Cheng Erye wanted to shout out a large number to scare these young people, "Eight hundred taels of silver." ”

In fact, this tea shop is not even worth thirty taels of silver. Zhao Jing smiled dumbly and said, "It took so much effort to shout out eight hundred taels of silver, I thought it would be ten thousand taels." Zhao Ying said: "Although we are not short of money, but this teahouse can't sell eight hundred taels of silver." Li Shaoxi said: "I think it's worth a hundred taels of silver at most." Xiao Shan opened her mouth and said, "It doesn't take a hundred taels." In our house, we can buy a tea shop bigger than this for a hundred taels. Yao'er smiled and pinched Xiaoshan's face and said, "You still understand the market." Zhao Wei said: "Then how about we go to your house and buy a few more teahouses?" Wu You said: "Since I am here to be this tea doctor, I will pay for the store." Zhao Wei looked at Zhao Jing and said, "I also want to be a tea doctor." Zhao Jing said: "Our money is all from my sister." After that, the two of them looked at Zhao Ying together. Zhao Yu's eyes widened, and he whispered to the two of them, "You forgot that we didn't bring much money when we came out." Li Shaoxi remembered that they should keep a low profile, so he began to retreat and said to them: "We can't meet this kind of person." Xiao Shan interrupted him and said, "We can't let this kind of person succeed either." Wu You smiled and took out a thick stack of silver tickets from his body. Yu Yan saw that the silver tickets he took out were all large amounts, so he stopped him with gestures, took out ten silver tickets from his arms, put them on the table, and said, "This is one thousand taels, which can be circulated in the national money bank." ”

One thousand taels, all the tea guests in the teahouse were taken aback. The numbers on this silver ticket are astronomical to them. You must know that Cheng Erye, the richest man in the town, can collect less than five hundred taels of rent a year, and a silver ticket that these young people take out casually is worth the rent of Cheng Erye's family for two years. It seems that this excitement is getting bigger and bigger. Everyone whispered, and they couldn't help but have a few more guesses about the origin of these young men and women.

Mr. Luo snorted coldly: "I really dare to bluff people, using fake silver tickets is a crime of killing the head." ”

Cheng Erye was originally a cruel and vicious lord who was rich and unkind, and after Mr. Luo's reminder, he immediately started from the bottom of his heart, came up with a trick that he thought was clever, and said to Mr. Luo and Jiading: "Let's go." He turned and left the tea shop. The other tea drinkers knew that the matter was not over yet, and they all sat there and waited.

The shopkeeper of the tea shop came over and persuaded: "Young man, this Cheng Erye is not easy to mess with, you offended him today, this matter must not be stopped, it is best to leave quickly, so as not to cause another disaster." ”

Yu Yan saw that this Cheng Erye was bound to repay, and he had evil thoughts when he left, but he didn't care, and when he saw that the shopkeeper was also for their good, he said: "You put away the silver ticket, we bought this store." Don't clean it up, hurry up and take your wife and children out to avoid trouble. ”

Except for Wu You, who walked the rivers and lakes and saw the sinister world, although the rest of the people had different family backgrounds, they all lived in an environment of fine clothes and jade food since childhood, and they only saw that Cheng Erye wanted to provoke and retaliate, but they didn't understand why they were involved in the shopkeeper.

Zhao Wei said: "What kind of disaster is the shopkeeper going to avoid?"

Wu You said in a low voice: "This surnamed Cheng is narrow-minded, let the shopkeeper drive us away today, but it didn't work out, just now the shopkeeper was kind enough to persuade him, the surname Cheng will definitely anger the shopkeeper of the tea shop afterwards, so the shopkeeper should go out to avoid trouble." ”

Yu Yan stood up, saw that the shopkeeper was still standing there, and then wanted to see the posture of Wu You holding the handle of the knife just now, this surnamed Cheng would not come, if he dared to provoke Wu You, he would be eliminated, and then the shopkeeper would not have to go out to avoid trouble. So he said to the shopkeeper: "You take your men to the state capital to redeem the silver tickets, and then go to buy some daily necessities, which must be clean." ”

The shopkeeper held the silver ticket in his hand, knowing that even if he didn't eat or drink, he wouldn't be able to withstand this piece of paper even if he didn't eat or drink for a lifetime, and suddenly felt a little funny, and when he heard Yu Yan let him go shopping for supplies, he hurriedly "swooped" and took the guys out.

Yu Yan had something in his heart, and said to everyone: "I'll go out for a walk first." ”

Yao'er was a little uneasy and said, "I'll go too."

Yu Yan said: "Don't worry, I just want to go around alone and come back in a while." With that, he left the teahouse.

Zhao Wei's heart moved, grabbed Xiao Shan, and asked, "Does your big brother Yu know martial arts?"

Xiao Shan said proudly: "Not only will I know, but my martial arts are also very good!"

Zhao Wei asked, "Have you seen him?"

Xiaoshan said: "I haven't seen it." ”

Zhao Wei asked, "Then how do you know?"

Xiaoshan said: "My father and he are sworn brothers, and my father said that Brother Yu's martial arts are superb. ”

Zhao Wei said: "Your father can also do martial arts, is he very famous? Take us to meet your father." ”

Sister Yao'er's eyes turned red, and Xiao Shan said: "My father is a great hero who stands up to the sky, and the rivers and lakes are famous, but it's a pity that he ......" Speaking of this, two tears fell on the placket of her clothes.

Zhao Wei also knew that he shouldn't ask any more, so he hurriedly apologized. Yao'er shook her head and said, "It's okay, it has nothing to do with you." ”

Wu You didn't want to look here any longer, so he stood up and said to them, "I'll go out for a walk too." ”

Li Shaoxi said: "You also want to go out for a walk?"

Zhao Wei said to Wu You: "Do you want to teach me knife techniques?"

Wu You said: "I'll talk about it when I come back." "Also left the teahouse.
