Chapter 108: The New and the Old Dispute
The parade passed quickly, and the streets became much calmer, at least in the open, the matter passed.
Chen Xiyi didn't know the more specific situation, and he didn't get involved in this matter, but he knew that it might have passed on the surface, but the subsequent storm must have been quite a bit.
But this has nothing to do with him, and it doesn't matter.
Before, he had just been humble and ruined the entire Dongtai City. If he was humble, who would know what would happen?
After lying down for a day, Chen Xiyi's eyes were a little dazed when he read books, and he couldn't bear it. He thought that he might not go down to sit in the lobby of the inn for a while. Anyway, the parade had passed.
If it weren't for the unfamiliar place, he would have wanted to find a place to go fishing.
I slowly went downstairs. At this time, there were not many people in the inn, and there were only a few of them.
After he casually chose a position against the wall, he called the waiter over and said, "What are the signature dishes?"
The waiter sucked the rag quickly, wiped it on the table and said, "You are right, customer, I am the best place in the local area. I also have soft and sweet taste in the spring of the past three years. Even Dasang had to say good things when he drank it."
"There are also these three fresh assorted fish, ginger and vinegar. If you taste it, you will be sure to have a taste of it."
The waiter said a lot of things, and Chen Xiyi felt helpless when he heard it. He couldn't eat it even after you said so much.
"Okay, you want to stop talking, it's like a machine gun. Why? Your mouth is rented monthly? Sorry, if you say less, your monthly fee will not be enough." Chen Xiyi couldn't help but complain.
Hearing his inappropriate complaints, the waiter was also embarrassed. Although he couldn't understand what Chen Xiyi meant, he also understood that the other party disliked him for being shattered.
Therefore, I could only say a little embarrassedly: "Customer, I'm used to it. How can you forgive me, how can you forgive me."
"Isn't this just done? To be simple, I'm just confused by what you said now. Let me see what I want..." Chen Xiyi is not a bad person. Although this man was a little bit broken, he didn't say he was targeting Chen Xiyi, so there was no need to make things difficult for him.
After ordering three dishes casually, I just let it go.
The waiter was also as if he had received an amnesty and quickly left to go to the kitchen to report the food.
Because there are no people eating during this period, the speed of serving the dishes is still very fast.
"Let me ask you, what caravans can go west in this city?"
After serving the dishes, Chen Xiyi called the waiter and then took out a preparatory ticket worth 100 yuan and handed it over.
After the waiter took the tip into his arms, he thought for a while and said, "It was a bit unfortunate for the guest to come. There were some days ago, but now it is gone. However, if the guest to wait, the Bai family caravan will come here at most. They are heading west."
When Chen Xiyi heard this, he couldn't help but feel a black line. It was obvious that the Bai family caravan had a fixed time and route and should pass by here every year. If it were normal, it would be possible to arrive in about a month.
But the problem is that it is not normal now. Whether the Bai family caravan can leave Dongtai City is a big problem, and I am still here.
"Are there any other caravans or ones that can be joined by?"
Chen Xiyi was a little ecstatic, and he "picked" two inheritances along the way. It was obvious that the number of these Feng Shui masters, sorcerers, etc. is not small. If he really went on the road alone, his speed would definitely be very fast, but he would miss a lot of opportunities to "picking" inheritances in the middle.
Anyway, the item at his destination would not run away, and it seemed that it was either buried underground.
Not only are there no white spots around, they are not even moving, so it must be a masterpiece.
"This...maybe there is." The waiter said in a little embarrassed manner. He didn't know these things.
Chen Xiyi calmly took out another preparatory ticket and stuffed it into the waiter's hand. This time it was worth 1,000 yuan.
If you say that this preparatory ticket is not valuable, there are quite a lot of denominations, in addition to one yuan, ten yuan, and hundreds of yuan, there are also thousands, million yuan, and hundreds of yuan.
Judging from the current situation, no one uses the one-yuan denomination ticket. After all, you have to prepare tickets worth 100 yuan after drinking soy milk. You can't tell me that you can buy a bag of tickets for business.
The waiter was also a little helpless. He meant that he had no choice but to ask for tips again.
"Customer, I'll try to pay attention to you." Although the inn has a large flow of people, not only those who eat but also stay in hotels, most of them are local, and there are rarely any people going out.
Chen Xiyi knew that this matter had to wait for the word "smart". If it was not possible, there was nothing we could do.
"Then please help me with more arrangements." Chen Xiyi did not force the other party, after all, there was nothing wrong with it, and there was nothing to force it.
It just so happened that he stayed here for two more days, and it would not be too late to make plans after he finished learning Dinglong Jiuzhe.
"You are polite, you are aware of this. If nothing happens, I won't bother you for dinner." The waiter smiled and prepared to leave.
Chen Xiyi stopped the other party: "Wait a minute, I would like to ask, are there any good places for fishing in the nearby rivers or lakes?"
I am idle too. It is not good to always lie down and read books. I can go fishing while reading. Anyway, he is watching the progress bar when fishing, and it is not really up to fish to catch the bait.
As long as the progress bar is full, you will definitely be able to catch something.
As for what you catch, it depends on luck.
Of course, what is more important is that the water and earth energy by the river are abundant, so that the pupils can absorb more water and earth energy when circulating spiritual energy to speed up the cultivation of the soul.
The waiter is a bit weird. Do you still have the intention to go fishing these days?
But he didn't show it either. He was not stupid. Anyone with a discerning scholar could tell that he was a good person who was not short of money. What did he do if he was worried about it?
"There is really a place to go, but it's outside the city." The waiter blurted out.
"That's okay, please tell me in detail." This has nothing to do with Chen Xiyi.
"This leaves the south gate and follow the road..."
Since Chen Xiyi didn't mind, the waiter naturally wouldn't say anything, so he had to tell Chen Xiyi in detail.
Although this guy is a little bit broken, he is still very detailed. He is very good at speaking.
"Well, let's do this. You can greet a carriage for me, and let the coachman wait for me at the inn gate tomorrow morning. I will rent it for a month first, and I will give it to you if I have more." Chen Xiyi took out fifty copper coins.
The little guy in the shop lit up his eyes. He was indeed not short of money, so he took out fifty copper coins casually.
Those coachmen probably don’t have these copper coins in their entirety, but they still use preparatory tickets. Even he doesn’t have that many in a month, and only twenty copper coins were exchanged for preparatory tickets.
But even the same amount of tickets are not worth the copper.
The preparatory tickets fell every day. Now that the situation is now, I can still buy some oil these days, and maybe I will only have some vinegar left tomorrow.
Therefore, the copper and silver dollars that retain value are naturally the most popular, not to mention that the copper itself has considerable value.
"Don't worry, I will definitely arrange it for you tomorrow morning." The waiter took the bronze and naturally understood what Chen Xiyi meant.
Chen Xiyi wanted to save trouble, so he only looked at the results and not the process, so he asked him to do it.
The money has been given enough, but he needs to do the price himself. How much money can he talk about, the excess is his.
Of course, he didn't dare to make up for the numbers. After all, he was a guest in the inn. If he really wanted to find some carriage or coachman for the sake of bad money, he probably would have to make trouble with the shopkeeper. He might be criticized, and it would be fine if he was unemployed.
There are not many people in this era, there are many people.
If he is missing, he still moves in this inn, not to mention that he is more than just a waiter in this inn, he does business as much as he is missing.
"Yeah, go." After hearing the other party's reply, Chen Xiyi waved his hand and told him to do whatever he should do.
Looking at the surroundings casually, he listened to whether these diners revealed any valuable news when chatting.
But most of them are eating and chatting, and there are only a few words of family matters, and they don’t involve anything else at all.
I guess I'm afraid something will happen.
After a glance, a middle-aged man dressed in a white robe walked into the inn.
"Shopkeeper, it's the third brother." The middle-aged man shouted as soon as he came in.
The shopkeeper behind the counter is no longer surprised, and it is obviously a regular customer.
"Okay, Mr. Feng, two taels of rice in the spring of three years, half a roast chicken, and a stack of side dishes." The shopkeeper shouted to the kitchen.
The waiter hurried over and greeted: "Come on, please come here, Mr. Feng."
The middle-aged man surnamed Feng was also familiar with the waiter. After walking halfway through, he suddenly saw Chen Xiyi, and his eyes lit up: "Don't be busy for now, go and ask me if this little brother is fighting for the table. It is rare to meet a scholar with both fame and fortune these days."
When the waiter heard this, he was embarrassed and had to bite the bullet and ask.
Chen Xiyi was also confused when he heard this?
Fate and fame?
But I didn't refuse.
The middle-aged man surnamed Feng heard that Chen Xiyi did not refuse, so he naturally sat opposite him and said, "I have seen my friend, Feng Peng, a scholar in the spring of the ninth year of the year of the lunar year, and today I am honored to meet classmates again."
Obviously, the other party misunderstood. He is not a scholar, he is just wearing scholarly fashion.
Chen Xiyi also discovered that the other party did not seem to regard the students who had marched before as scholars, but instead regarded himself as both scholars, which was a little curious.
Since the other party introduced himself, Chen Xiyi also introduced himself, but he didn't say that he was a scholar for several years.
During this period, he compared the common points between the other party and himself, intending to find similarities or characteristics of the other party who thinks he is a scholar.
Finally locked on the long gown.
At this time, he also understood that no wonder people in this world recognized themselves at a glance.
These scholars all wear long gowns, while the people basically wear short gowns with other clothes.
So he recognized him as a scholar at first sight.
From the communication with Feng Peng, Chen Xiyi clearly felt his disgust for the parade students and scolded them as evil ways.
"It is a disgrace to read the classics of sages and do not write eight-part articles. It is a disgrace to learn about things and learn about people's livelihood and economy." Feng Peng's anger was quite a bit.
Chen Xiyi understood the cause and effect, and it was a dispute between the old and the new.
This group of old school who represented feudal stubborn feudal and unhappy new school was caused by the student party learning foreign ideas. However, Chen Xiyi felt that the greater possibility was that the student parade affected Feng Peng's interests, otherwise how could he say that?
And the other party mistakenly thought of an old scholar as a scholar in his long gown.
