“Guest~~~I really don’t need so much~~~”
The hawker actually regretted it as soon as he shouted out, but since he had already yelled, he didn’t care so much. He regretted it, but he still felt a little happy in his heart.
However, when the vendor saw that the gentleman in white was just looking at him from a distance twenty steps away, but did not come back, he had no choice but to talk to the old man selling persimmons at a stall next to him.
“Uncle Chen, help me look at the stall. I’ll chase the guest officer and I’ll be back soon!”
“Haha, go ahead, go ahead!”
The old man was a little envious just now, but now he has some admiration for this young man.
Seeing the old man agreeing, the hawker hurriedly walked out of the stall and chased Ji Yuan.
Because of the few shouts just now, there were some spectators who stopped or walked back slowly, talking about what was going on. Others who had seen the whole story explained in a low voice, and others who had not seen the end yet speculated together.
On the other end, Ji Yuan didn’t move away, as if he was just standing there waiting for the vendor to catch up with him. When he saw that the vendor really came out of the stall and came after him, his eyes opened slightly.
The hawker walked three steps at a time and then two steps at a time. He soon arrived in front of Ji Yuan and handed over the silver in his hand.
“Sir… I’ll tell you the truth, this black jade hairpin is carved from rough materials. It’s worth twenty or thirty cash at most, one or two more… It’s a little hot for me to keep. If you give me fifty cash I just accepted it… If you really like it, give me some copper coins. I can’t even find a big coin!”
After finishing this sentence in one breath, the hawker became more angry, but found that he had finished speaking in a hurry, but the gentleman in white opposite him didn’t say anything, and just stared at him up and down.
‘Is it possible that I spoke too fast and he didn’t hear clearly? ’
Just as he was thinking this, Ji Yuan finally spoke, but the topic had nothing to do with hairpins and silver.
“May I ask what your last name is?”
“Huh?”
The hawker was a little stunned. The other person didn’t accept the money, but asked for his name?
“My name is Lin Tian, and I have been setting up a stall here. Sir, please take the money… How about I stop selling this hosta?”
“No hurry, no rush, I like this hosta very much. I have decided to buy it today. However, I still have a little doubt and want to ask Brother Lin. If I give you one tael of gold this time, , will you still chase me out and pay me back?”
This question is really puzzling, but it also arouses people’s imagination. Lin Tian hesitated for a while and answered honestly:
“Sir, you are joking. I have never seen a tael of gold in my life, and I can’t answer it. But with so much money, I might just take the money and run away, haha…”
Ji Yuan frowned and then reached out to take the broken silver from the vendor’s hand.
“Yes, I didn’t ask the right question. Let’s go and check out your stall. By the way, I heard that the dishes at Zuixiang Restaurant in Juntian Mansion are good. Have you ever been there, Brother Lin?”
“Huh?”
The hawker became more and more confused after hearing this.
. . .
At noon, the hawker Lin Tian didn’t know what happened, so he followed the white-shirted Mr. Ji to Zuixianglou inexplicably.
Now Lin Tian and Ji Yuan are sitting face to face on the third floor of Zuixiang Building, looking at the scenery outside the windows on the left and right, looking a little reserved.
“Mr. Ji, this is too expensive for you. I’m just going to give you a coarse hosta…I heard it’s very expensive here!”
Seeing Lin Tian not daring to speak loudly, Ji Yuan was also happy.
“No matter how expensive it is, can it still cover three years of food?”
Ji Yuan’s words made the hawker sound confused. At this time, he didn’t know how to answer.
“Fish head soup with white chopped chicken is here~~~Stewed cabbage and steamed meat cake are here~~”
The waiter at the inn dragged out the long suffix of the dish name, and actually walked with a tray in each hand, holding two plates, all the way to Ji Yuan’s window table. This kind of balance can be regarded as practice makes perfect.
Lin Tian and Ji Yuan didn’t wait for the waiter to speak before they hurriedly helped him put down the plate and brought out the six dishes in it.
“This is Baotou fish soup, this is white-cut chicken, this is soy sauce and vinegar dish, this is braised cabbage, steamed meat cake and fried three delicacies, this is hibiscus soup, you have to drink it while it’s hot, this is homemade orange sugar water , By the way, this plate of persimmons is an after-dinner snack. Sir, your dishes are ready. Just say hello if you need anything!”
The waiter was very quick and spoke quickly, introducing all the dishes quickly.
“Okay, thank you, little brother!”
Ji Yuan handed over his hands to the waiter in thanks, while Lin Tian on the other side did the same in embarrassment.
“Hey, use it slowly, use it slowly!”
Seeing the waiter nodding his head and leaving, Ji Yuan called to Lin Tian, who was already salivating, to use his chopsticks, and took the lead in eating the white chicken with the sauce.
As soon as Lin Tian saw Mr. Ji starting to eat, he couldn’t restrain himself and started eating too. Such dishes from a big restaurant are rarely eaten all year round.
After three rounds of wine and five dishes, Lin Tian was already full and burping. Ji Yuan stopped after drinking some more fish head soup, looked at Lin Tian who was feeling satisfied and asked.
“Brother Lin, I really like this hosta. I’m afraid one meal is not enough…”
“No, no, no, no, sir, I’m afraid of you. Are you a prosperous relative of our Lin family… Why don’t you eat a persimmon first? This persimmon is sweet!”
Hearing that Jiyuan had started again, Lin Tian was really frightened.
“Hahaha…I don’t want to eat any more persimmons for the time being…Brother Lin, Rong Ji will have a few more empty chats with you.”
“Well, this persimmon is so sweet…Tsk…Tell me, sir!”
Ji Yuan beat time with **** on the table with one hand, looking out the window and listening to the noise in the market.
“If Brother Lin was given a choice, would you choose to brave the rapids and become rich, or would you choose to live a peaceful life as a small rich man?”
After Ji Yuan finished speaking, he opened his eyes and turned to look at Lin Tian. Although his eyes were blinded, Lin Tian stopped his hands and mouth.
The noise around him seemed to have weakened a lot. Lintian didn’t notice this, but he couldn’t help but put down half a persimmon and wiped his mouth with his hand, feeling vaguely like he was facing an important point in his life. Find Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuａan.com
“Mr. Ji, I have no knowledge and no ambitions. All I want is to have a wife and have two children, so that I can live a stable life. I can provide for my parents until they die, and someone can provide for me until I die… I’m very content. ! ”
Hearing this, Ji Yuan sighed and closed his eyes slightly.
“It’s just that people will change…the more you get, the more you desire. Of course, it’s good if you can be content and always happy. Okay, Brother Lin, if you have a loud voice, please call the waiter and say this Checkout at the same time.”
“Okay!”
Lin Tian picked up the half of the persimmon again, ran to the stairs on the third floor and shouted down.
“Waiter~~~Check out by the east window on the third floor~~~”
“Come on~~~”
The waiter downstairs seemed to be shouting with Lin Tian, each yelling with a sense of tact.
Seeing Lin Tian running away, Ji Yuan dipped his right hand into a little sugar water in the cup, wrote the word “Sui” on the water on the table, and then tapped the table with his middle finger, and the word formed by the traces of sugar water was drawn into the air with his fingertips. .
The **** of the middle thumb are interlocked and flicked.
Whoosh~
The water character “Sui” quickly flew to the stairs, and Lin Tian happened to turn around at this time.
Pop~, the word “Sui” is right between the eyebrows.
Lin Tian only felt a chill on his forehead. He stretched out his hand and touched it. He didn’t feel anything. He subconsciously looked up at the ceiling and then returned to the table.
‘The persimmons are more delicious than those sold by Mr. Chen. Eat more. ’
Ji Yuan smiled, looked at the sky outside the window, and overheard a few scholars downstairs discussing the state imperial examination with some excitement.
“It’s already the dawn of the Guibang…”
As he waved his hand, the white material on his sleeve appeared. Compared to three years ago, its solidity was only inferior to that of the tiger demon Lu Shanjun who had practiced Taoism for nearly two hundred years.
