Chapter 413
After Li Hongxiao entered the store, she attracted the attention of all the diners.
There is such a beautiful woman in the world. I couldn't find the words to describe it for a while. I couldn't help but look at it a few more times. Several young men sitting not far away were chatting about the affairs of the capital. When they saw Li Hongxiao
, his eyes lit up, and his voice became louder intentionally or unintentionally.
The topics discussed have become more sophisticated, and business is mutually supportive.
"Brother Li, I heard that your business has been good this year and you have even gone to the Western Regions. You must take care of your brothers more in the future!"
"Brother Hu, thank you. Business is not good this year. The situation in Wudong is not optimistic. We have lost more than 200,000 taels of silver. If this continues, it will be a bottomless pit, and we don't know when it will end. Otherwise, it will be a big fish.
Big meat, why are you here to eat chicken stew? I heard that your firewood business is good. You cut firewood from Guandong and transport it to France for sale. I heard that you can earn more than ten thousand taels of silver per ship?"
The young man surnamed Hu waved his hand and said modestly: "To earn some pocket money. My family still asks me to study the sages' books and prepare to pass the Jinshi examination next year."
"From now on, I have to follow Brother Hu. By the way, when will Jia Yueting return to China? I heard that the boy cheated a lot of money again. The last time I went to Lan Kwai Fong, no, I went to Lan Kwai Bookstore to buy books.
I haven’t paid it back yet!”
The voice was so unbridled that everyone frowned upon hearing it.
The two people were chatting and looking over here. If they hadn't seen two red-clothed catchers at the same table, they might have come over to strike up a conversation.
Li Hongxiao listened with great interest.
Li Hongxiao listened excitedly, but didn't eat much. He picked out a few pieces from the pot and put them into Fan Xiaodao's bowl.
Zhao Xing began to regret it.
Who am I, where am I, why am I here?
The donkey meat next door is grilled for ten cents a piece. Isn’t it delicious?
Looking up, Lu Tianshuo and Lin Yuan just walked in, chose a table in the distance, and sat down. Since they were by the window, Fan and Li had their backs to them. Zhao Xing lowered his head to eat, but the other party did not
Notice them.
However, their aura was too strong. Although they were dressed in civilian clothes, the atmosphere in the store instantly became cold.
Lin Yuan wiped the stool with his hand and asked Eunuch Lu to sit down opposite the door.
In this way, the people at the two tables were back to back, and everything was fine.
The steaming hot chicken pot was served.
The red chicken, paired with green peppers, exudes a rich aroma.
Lu Tianshuo lowered his head and took a sip, looking intoxicated.
It feels like constipation suddenly disappears after three days, and the whole body becomes clear.
"The fragrance spreads far and wide! Otherwise it would be said that delicious food is among the people!"
All the diners present thought that the chicken stew for twenty cents a piece was not a delicacy, and the rice was enough to fill them up, but they tasted like a Manchu-Han banquet. These people were too good at pretending, but they complained.
He cursed but didn't say anything.
Lu Tianshuo picked up a piece of chicken but did not eat it. He said calmly: "I remember half a year ago, when I first arrived in the capital, I didn't eat for three days and three nights. I passed by a chicken pot and my mouth was watering."
Lin Yuan said yes again and again, but in his heart he added the following lines for him: "If I can eat a bite of chicken, I feel that my life has not been in vain, but I was poor at that time and had no money. I spent two copper coins to buy it."
I squatted at the door and ate the sesame cake, smelling the aroma of the chicken. I felt like it was dragon meat in the sky. I wouldn’t change it. But now, there are animals in the mountains, swallows in the clouds, cattle and sheep on land, fresh seafood from the sea, hericium, bird’s nests and sharks.
Wings, bear paws, scallops and deer tail tips, these things make me feel sick when I see them."
But he said: "Your Majesty, great blessings have reached the heavens. All the hardships are rewarded with happiness. The short setbacks are just a small episode in the life of the nobles."
Lu Tianshuo said: "But I'm used to living a wealthy life, so why do I miss these hard days? Things are impermanent. Now in the prosperous Ming Dynasty, there are seas and rivers. This is all the work of the saints. However, I can eat some folk delicacies from time to time to remember.
Only when you think about the bitter things and the sweet things will you be able to endure forever.”
"Yes, yes, yes!" Lin Yuan said smoothly: "If all the officials in the government have this consciousness, the good days of the common people will be just around the corner!"
"Hehehe!"
In the distance, several young men who had just been chatting sneered with disdain.
There is no room for two tigers in one mountain.
There is no room for two in one store.
Everything comes first, then comes first. If we pretend to be good and you follow us to cause trouble, wouldn't that be a slap in the face?
The young man surnamed Hu said: "A bowl of broken chicken in a clay pot has brought out so many emotions about life, and made the oceans and rivers clear. Even we are ashamed of ourselves."
"You can't even eat four dishes at a meal, but you can only eat a meaty meal. Why don't you decorate it? Lao Li, see everything more clearly and openly. Don't be so cynical. Boss, please give me some rice.
, pour some soup!"
When Lu Tianshuo heard this, he put down his bowl and chopsticks and looked at the two of them with interest.
The two people were not afraid at all and looked at Eunuch Lu.
There is a beautiful woman next to you. If you shrink back at this time, wouldn't it be ridiculous?
Lin Yuan thought to himself, these two idiots really don't know how to be generous. They offended Eunuch Lu and bankrupted everything, all at your advantage! Thinking of this, he suffered from occupational diseases again, and began to think about the twelve tortures he had just learned.
Pick a few and serve them, then slowly cook them.
However, the protagonist today is Eunuch Lu. He doesn’t say anything and he doesn’t dare to make any mistakes.
Eunuch Lu was not angry at all. He pursed his lips and smiled, "How brave!"
This smile made both of them tingle. This guy wouldn't like men, but they didn't intend to give in. The two brothers fought against the villain. The beauty next to them didn't look back at them, but kept on fighting.
To pick up food for the red-coated head catcher?
That kid is really lucky.
A flower stuck on cow dung!
Lu Tianshuo said to the two of them: "You two brothers are extremely interesting. We are destined to meet each other. Why don't you come over and sit down and have a few drinks together?"
The two of them said to themselves that they were still afraid of you. They laughed, stood up, carried the remaining half of the pot, came to Lu Tianshuo's table, and sat down carelessly. This fox-coated young man had a fair face, and he didn't look like that.
That's disgusting.
Lu Tianshuo poured wine for the two of them himself, "I wonder what you call them?"
The young man surnamed Hu said: "My name is Hu Buyu, my father is Hu Bancheng, this is Li Jin, and his father is the famous Hu Wanwan in the capital."
Hu Bancheng, Li Wanwan?
These two are among the four most famous wealthy men in the capital. Together with Niu Dafu's father Huang Youcai, they are also known as the three nobles in the capital.
These two boys had offended Eunuch Lu just now. With his unyielding nature of revenge, these two families may be in trouble.
Lin Yuan licked his lips with his tongue. He originally thought he was going to hit them, but unexpectedly he encountered a big fish. It won't take long for Eunuch Lu to have a lot of wealth in his little treasury. When the time comes, Eunuch-in-law will eat meat.
If I drink soup, I should be able to make a fortune.
Li Jin said: "Brother Hu's uncle is the minister of the Ministry of War, and my second uncle is the minister of household affairs."
Lu Tianshuo smiled and said: "What a big official, no wonder he has such a big tone!"
Li Jindao: "In the capital, money is nothing, power is king. I have a friend who took advantage of 1.8 million taels of silver in his family. He didn't know what to do. He said something carelessly and offended Mr. Lu of Dongchang. In the end, guess what, the armor was found in the home, and the whole family was executed for treason and rebellion!"
This is not your friend, this is clearly you!
Lin Yuan thought to himself that he had even written the script for himself. If there were more details, he would not have to use his brain.
Lu Tianshuo snorted, "How can you offend the law if there is such a thing?"
Li Jin said: "You are talking so freely! We were eating in a restaurant, fighting for a seat with Eunuch Lu, and calling him a guy without eggs. Aren't you looking for death?"
Lu Tianshuo asked again: "Then you still dare to scold Eunuch Lu, aren't you afraid of offending him?"
Li Jin laughed, "How could I be afraid of him? Besides, what kind of place is this? Why would Eunuch Lu come to a place like this to eat?"
"Why can't you come?"
Li Jin pointed to the three words "Chicken Claypot" on the door, "Chicken Claypot, Xigong Claypot, there are birds and Chicken Claypot, but there are no birds, and Xigong Claypot is there. How can a person without birds have the nerve to come here to eat?" Stewed chicken? Isn’t this asking for trouble? Hahaha!”
After saying this, Li Jin felt a little proud.
This joke is so fun!
Why doesn't the girl at the opposite table look over?
I can't see the expression on the girl opposite me.
Lu Tianshuo's face was as dark as water, his thin lips were pursed together, and his brows were frowning. In the past six months, he had collected martial arts secrets from countless sects, and even found a replica of the Sunflower Book from Heimu Cliff. However, His talent was limited, and he missed the age to practice martial arts. Although his martial arts improved, it was not very effective.
However, as he occupies a high position, he is below one person and above ten thousand people.
Killing no longer requires martial arts.
It's just a matter of one sentence to confiscate the house and destroy the family.
Lin Yuan has already begun to prepare for his funeral.
However, Hu Buyu and Li Jin didn't seem to have the consciousness to commit suicide, and they were still snickering.
This meal was not satisfactory.
He didn't take care of Lu Tianshuo's mood, let alone let him pretend. Instead, he let two clowns disturb Eunuch Lu's interest. Therefore, these two people couldn't move for now. He looked out the door and winked. At this time, two fierce and tough men arrived belatedly.
In fact, they arrived early in the morning.
According to Dongchang Fanzi's instructions, wait outside the door.
Only when a person's emotions have ups and downs and transitions can his emotional value be fully released.
Come in and order food, remember the bitter things and think of the sweet things, that's it.
The big man is making trouble and is full of hatred. This is the inheritance.
Identity exposed, slap in the face and pretending to be cool, it's a reversal.
Weeping bitterly, holding one's head and running away, this is a combination.
Chapter completed!
