Chapter 3 Gathering the Crowd to Revolt(1/2)
"elder brother!"
"Come!"
Chen An was cooking breakfast outside, and rushed into the house when he heard the sound, and then couldn't help laughing.
The room was not big, and after setting up a bed, there was only room for a table and two stools.
Guoguo stood beside the bed, moving the stool with difficulty, and slowly climbed up.
She lay on the table and got the cloth strip, then turned around and saw her smiling brother.
"Brother, tie your hair and be beautiful."
"good!"
Chen An took her out and took time to tie her hair while cooking.
When the aroma of fish porridge made the tenant next door sniff, Chen An also pricked Guoguo two small wands.
Chen An leaned back slightly, and then exaggeratedly praised: "Why is my Guoguo so beautiful?"
Guoguo raised her head and said, "Beautiful!"
After breakfast, Chen An took Guoguo to wander around the city for a long time.
When night gradually fell, Chen An's stall also opened.
The pot stickers gradually became golden in the pot, and Guoguo sat behind and looked at the prosperity.
The vendors were shouting, and all kinds of delicacies gathered, making people feel like they were in the world of gluttony.
There were many people, and Chen An even saw an official eating along the way with his entourage.
“The pot sticker is ready!”
Chen An uncovered the lid, and the heat immediately simmered, and the diners who had been waiting for a long time began to compete.
"I want it all!"
"roll!"
"Five!"
Chen An was so busy that he was too busy. The vendor who made soup cakes beside him was so jealous. Chen An glanced at him and said, "If there are too many people here, your business will be better."
The vendor smiled dryly, but refused to believe it.
After his business gradually improved, Chen An breathed a sigh of relief.
When a tree stands out in the forest, the wind will destroy it.
His pot sticker business was extremely good, and he was even more arrogant for a while.
It is of course a good thing to do if a good business is done, but Bianliang is still a strange place for him and his sister.
Don't be complacent!
Chen An made more than ten pot stickers, then shook the bag again, indicating that it was over tonight.
As usual, the diners were full of complaints and then prepared to disperse.
"Since you're out doing business, how can you do this!"
Three thugs squeezed over from the crowd, and the leader said with a smile: "This food is good, but Bianliang is too big. How can you make it by yourself? How do you make this thing? Let's listen, I'll spend money to learn!"
This was the first time Chen An faced the evil forces in Bianliang City. He watched the three of them in a daze.
It is early spring now and the weather is still cold, but these three ruffians have opened their hearts, as if they are filled with a small stove.
“It’s so good.”
Chen An admired sincerely.
A gust of wind blew, and one of them turned blue and couldn't help but sneeze.
This sneeze made the thugs' momentum suddenly bleed away most of the momentum.
In front of everyone, the slutty leader said viciously: "I'll give you three days, otherwise there will be no place for you to stand in Bianliang City."
Chen An said with a panic look on his face: "Why don't you study now."
The rascal leader waved his hand without looking back: "Someone keeps his word!"
With a sigh, the diners dispersed one after another.
The vendor selling soup cakes next to him did not know whether it was sympathy or gloating, so he squeezed out some worries and said, "There are many ruthless people in Bianliang City. They are the most cruel. They like to follow others' homes and intimidate them every day."
He glanced at Guoguo, who was very obedient behind him, and said, "Be careful!"
"Thank you."
Chen An still closed the stall, but he still carried the stall on the one end and the sister on the other.
When I got home, I boiled water to wash my face and feet. Guoguo yawned all the way, but before going to bed, I still remembered saying: "Brother, they are so fierce."
Chen An covered her with a quilt, "That's to coax people, and they won't get mad in a few days."
He went to bed and covered himself with a quilt, sighing comfortably.
...
"elder brother!"
After breakfast the next day, Chen An said he would take Guoguo to go shopping.
I couldn't wait to wear thick clothes, standing by the gate and shouting.
"Here you come!"
Chen An hurried out, and then the two siblings left Yulin Lane.
Chen An felt that the most common things in Bianliang were restaurants and brothels.
Restaurants are for food, brothels are for desire.
Think about it with warmth!
However, the consumption of restaurants is very high, so it is the same in any era, and roadside stalls are the king.
There are those in your restaurant, and I have them on the roadside stalls, and they are much cheaper.
This is the way to survive.
Chen An looked over with his sister on his back and saw countless small vendors.
Finally he stood in front of a small stall, the stall owner was a young man.
On an irregularly shaped iron plate, several crooked "pot stickers" were burnt black.
Chen An sighed with his sister, "It's a waste!"
The young man said depressedly: "I don't know how that man did it."
"Do you want to learn?"
"Think of it!"
"I'm Chen An, I made the pot stickers."
...
In the afternoon, Kaifeng Prefecture received a message that a group of people gathered around the imperial city, shouting passionately from time to time, as if they were about to rebel.
Bao Zheng is currently in charge of Kaifeng Prefecture. After receiving the report, he was anxious and had no time to find any inspections. He led his yamen runners to the scene.
When he arrived at the edge of the imperial city behind Fanlou, Bao Zheng saw fifty or sixty people in front of him shouting, "Take it down!"
The yamen runners rushed in like wolves and tigers, punching and kicking.
"A group of traitors, kneel down!"
The crowd knelt down one after another. Bao Zheng frowned and saw a boy in the middle in a daze.
A stove stand is there, and the pot stickers in the iron pot are emitting a fragrance.
What does this mean?
Chen An quickly held his sister and was ready to run away at any time.
"What are you going to gather here?"
Bao Zheng asked in a deep voice.
Chen An pointed at the iron pot and said, "Xiaomin is here to teach them how to make pot stickers."
Bao Zheng walked over and looked carefully, then asked, "Why are you shouting?"
Chen An said innocently: "They are afraid that they will not be able to learn, so the little people are just encouraging them."
Bao Zheng turned around and looked at the kneeling men, then said with an ugly expression: "Go back!"
After walking a few steps, Bao Zheng couldn't help but look back.
The group of men had gathered together again and shouted together.
