The big men didn't stop, because they knew the power of the cultivators, so they ran away in a daze, and they didn't even have the courage to leave a cruel word.

As soon as the smoke slipped away, the big men disappeared without a trace, Shang Buqi looked back at the shopkeeper Liu, and grinned, he smiled, not a simple smile, but a real smile from the heart, because he got all the shops of the shopkeeper Liu, how could he make him unhappy.

When the shopkeeper Liu saw that he was saved, he felt like a dream, and he didn't wake up until a family member next to him whispered to him.

"Under Liu Ming, thank you to the master for coming to the rescue, the old man is grateful, and he dares to ask the surname of Engongzun. Shopkeeper Liu made a big salute and said respectfully to Shang Buqi.

Shang Buqi waved his hand, thinking in his heart, "As long as you don't pay your bills." ”

Then he said lightly, "Shang." ”

At this time, the two women in the carriage stepped out of the carriage, one of them was tall, fair-skinned, and had a beautiful face, it was the woman who had just secretly looked out from the carriage, and the other was petite, with two big eyes dripping like water.

The shopkeeper Liu saw it, and hurriedly said, Yuezhen hurry up and come to worship Gong Xieen, it turns out that this tall woman is the daughter of the shopkeeper Liu, and the shorter is her personal maid.

"Little girl Liu Yuezhen, thank you for your honor. The maid followed the young lady and bowed down in front of Shang Buqi.

Shang Buqi hurriedly used a mana to lift the two up and said, "The two girls don't need to be polite. ”

Shopkeeper Liu said respectfully, "Engong, where are you going, if you have time, why don't you stay in the cold house for a few days and give me a chance to thank Engong for saving his life." ”

Shang Buqi scolded in his heart, "This old fox, even if he got his life, he didn't even mention the promise just now. ”

"I'm going to Jiale City. Shang Buqi said lightly.

"Oh, that's great, just come and stay at my house for a few days. ”

Shang Buqi thought about it for a while, Jiale City was the first city he passed through when he returned to Changsheng Prefecture, although it was not Linhai City, but at least it was a city for Dongzhou people, and he couldn't wait to see the Dongzhou-style architecture, clothing, and food again.

Shang Buqi didn't say much, but nodded.

This shopkeeper Liu originally asked a family member to give a horse for Shang Buqi to ride, but Shang Buqi refused, and just followed the carriage on foot.

After a while, everyone came to the outside of Jiale City, and Shang Buqi looked at the Dongzhou-style city, and couldn't help but feel a little excited in his heart, "I'm finally back." ”

Shang Buqi followed Liu shopkeeper and everyone walked on the lively and prosperous street, Shang Buqi looked left and right, and his heart was not full of joy, although this Jiale City is not as prosperous as Linhai City, but it also has the characteristics of Dongzhou City, that is, the business is extremely developed, and all kinds of shops are lined up.

After walking for a while, they saw a three-way intersection, and at the junction of the intersection, a three-story building appeared in front of Shang Buqi's eyes, and the plaque on the high-rise building had several vigorous and powerful characters, Jiale Inn.

Shopkeeper Liu's carriage came to a stop in front of the inn, and two men hurriedly ran out of it, "Master, you're back, the journey is going well." ”

So saying, the two men busied themselves with the suitcases behind the carriage to the inn.

And an old man in the inn who was older than Shopkeeper Liu also came out and said to Shopkeeper Liu, "Master, you are back."

Shopkeeper Liu saw the person coming and hurriedly said, "Old Xu, you quickly instruct your subordinates to clean up the west courtyard and clean it up." ”

It turned out that this Lao Xu was the housekeeper of Liu's shopkeeper, helping him take care of all the shops and business, and usually stayed in this inn.

This old Xu heard the unclear meaning and said, "Master, the west courtyard is all upper rooms, and it is also full of guests." ”

Shopkeeper Liu glared at Lao Xu and said, "I don't care what method you use, whether it is compensation or expulsion, the West Courtyard will vacate it for me immediately." After speaking, he ignored Lao Xu.

Instead, he turned to look at Shang Buqi, who was still looking around, and said respectfully, "Engong, follow me to the living room of the east courtyard to rest first, and when the next person has cleaned up the west courtyard, you can stay." ”

Shang Buqi did not refuse, and followed Shopkeeper Liu into the Jiale Inn.

Originally, this inn has east, west, south, three courtyards, the back is the three-storey building, the first floor is food, the second floor and the third floor are guest rooms, and the west courtyard is the upper room.

The east courtyard is where the shopkeeper Liu and his daughter live, and the south courtyard is the warehouse where the subordinates live and store their belongings.

Shopkeeper Liu took out the good tea that he had treasured for many years and entertained Shang Buqi, but Shang Buqi drank it in his mouth, but there was nothing new about it, because he drank it several times better in Wanjiang Building, and he also knew that this shopkeeper Liu could only be regarded as a businessman who had done a relatively large business, not comparable to those big forces.

Shopkeeper Liu saw that Shang Buqi drank tea and didn't speak, so he wanted to talk, but Shang Buqi always ignored him, so he had to accompany him to drink tea, and the atmosphere was a little embarrassing.

"Sir, the meal is ready. "A subordinate report.

"Eun Gong, please!"

Shang Buqi came to the back hall, a huge round table was full of dishes, and there were two women standing next to the table, one was Liu Yuezhen, and the other was the maid.

The two of them saluted when they saw Shang Buqi, and Liu Yuezhen was flushed when she glanced at Shang Buqi.

Liu Ming hurriedly beckoned everyone to sit down, and asked Liu Yuezhen to pour wine for Shang Buqi, repeatedly thanking Shang Buqi for his life-saving grace.

Although the tea is not satisfactory, this food Shang Buqi is still the first time to eat, of course, refers to those local specialties, although this dish seems to be the unique cooking technique of Dongzhou, but the processing of its ingredients, and seasoning is very different from that of the seaside city, which also made Shang Buqi interested, and that Liu Ming, seeing Shang Buqi eating with relish, was overjoyed, so he was busy introducing the origin, production method, and raw materials of the dishes to Shang Buqi.

Shang Buqi was eating, Liu Ming was introduced, and there were beautiful women to accompany him, Shang Buqi still enjoyed it very much in his heart.

And the wine he drank was also treasured by Liu Ming for many years, Shang Buqi had to say that this shopkeeper Liu, although he was only a businessman, but the wine in this collection was good, and he didn't know where the shopkeeper Liu got this good wine.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors, someone came up to tell Liu Ming that all the guests in the West Courtyard had been invited to leave, and the room had been cleaned.

Liu Ming personally took Shang Buqi to the West Courtyard, Shang Buqi entered the room, which was really decorated with exquisite atmosphere, worthy of being in the upper room, Shang Buqi also admired Liu Ming's business acumen at this time.

Shang Buqi did not use mana to drive away the power of alcohol, but reminisced about this slightly drunken feeling, he and Liu Ming expressed their drunkenness, and fell asleep directly on the soft bed.

Liu Ming was also a well-informed person, and knew that these strange monks had very different personalities, so he didn't care, so he retreated and ordered a few subordinates to be in the courtyard and wait for Shang Buqi's instructions at any time.

And just when Liu Ming just withdrew from the West Courtyard, the old Xu stepped forward and said to Liu Ming,

"Master, Wang Baoshan's people are here again. Lao Xu said with an ugly face.

"What, it's just too deceitful, go and see. ”

Liu Ming and Lao Xu came to the lobby of the inn, the originally lively lobby, at this time, there was not a single guest to eat, only a dozen big hands-like family members, one of the people who took the lead saw Liu Ming come out, touched the two mustaches on his mouth and said with a smile, "Shopkeeper Liu, actually back, congratulations!"

How could Liu Ming not hear the meaning of this person's words, and said in an atmosphere, "If you do this, aren't you afraid of retribution?" ”

"Retribution? Hmph, this time you are lucky, our lord said, you have a monk to help, we are not unable to invite, we are giving you seven days, if the reply is not satisfactory to our lord, not to mention the monk, I am afraid that the lives of your whole family will not be saved, go!" The man left with the thugs after speaking.

Lao Xu said to Liu Ming, "Master, if you can't do it, tell the city lord, please ask the city lord to uphold justice." ”

Liu Ming said with a bitter face, "Hey, Lao Xu, you don't know that the city lord has a close relationship with that Wang Baoshan, and it is said that the two secretly worship as brothers, otherwise how dare this Wang Baoshan be so blatant." ”

"Master, then we have compromised like this, this is the foundation that the old man has laid all his life. The old man in Lao Xu's mouth is Liu Ming's father, but Lao Xu is the housekeeper who helped take care of the business when Liu Ming's father was alive.

A resolute light appeared in Liu Ming's eyes and said, "There is a way." ”

Shang Buqi slept for half an hour, he yawned and stretched, he hadn't been so relaxed for a long time.

As soon as he pushed open the door, there were maids on both sides and said, "Childe is awake." ”

Then a few maids came to Shang Buqi with basin towels and asked him to wash, Shang Buqi was also stunned, and then he didn't shirk, washed and went out of the west courtyard.

Passing through the lobby on the first floor, Lao Xu hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Master Shang, you are awake." ”

Shang Buqi was stunned for a moment, and knew that Liu Ming had told this old Xu about him, and he didn't mind, so he said with a smile, "It's Old Xu, I'm about to go out for a walk." ”

Shang Buqi didn't lie, he hadn't come back for a long time, and he was in a good state at this time, so he definitely had to go out for a walk to relieve his homesickness.

But Lao Xu stopped Shang Buqi and said to the two men and two women next to him, "The four of you hurry up and accompany Shang Gongzi to the street to play." As he spoke, he took a small bag of silver and handed it to the four people, meaning that if Shang Buqi saw something, he would buy it.

As soon as these words came out, Shang Buqi was stunned again, "Old Xu, don't use it." ”

"Master Shang, this is what the master ordered, you must entertain the master, otherwise I won't be able to give the master an errand. Lao Xu looked pitiful.

Just when Shang Buqi was in a dilemma, a slim figure walked out from behind, "Grandpa Xu, since Engong is unwilling to be accompanied, let me accompany Engong to visit Jiale City." ”

Lao Xu's eyes rolled, and he looked embarrassed, "Okay, but when the master asks, the young lady wants to help me explain." ”

In this way, Shang Buqi acquiesced to Liu Yuezhen to follow him, and the girl with big eyes, it is better for two girls to follow than four people to follow him.
