554. Chance encounters
It was almost noon.
The defenders of Leizhou came to take over the warship, and Ren Wei led the Flying Army back to Haikang.
Zhao Dongting took Mrs. Xu, Hong Wutian and others to find an inn in the port and sat down, ready to taste the taste of the port.
To and from the inn.
Most of these inns hang signs with Leizhou characteristics, and it is estimated that they often do business with foreign businessmen.
The reason why Zhao Dongting wanted to try it was also to see how the hospitality of these inns was, if they were all goose-plucked and black-hearted, then they had to be rectified.
As a harbor city that Zhao Dongting wants to build, Leizhou is the faΓ§ade, and he will never allow any stain on the port. In many ways, Zhao Dongting is really a perfectionist.
This inn is not conspicuous, and the antique decoration that would look unique in modern society can only be regarded as sparse and ordinary in this era.
When Zhao Dongting and the others entered, there were already many guests inside, and looking at the dress, they should all be people who have been at sea all year round. The dialect spoken is not the rather obscure Leizhou dialect here.
The proprietress standing at the counter is quite beautiful, although she is not as good as Li Xiushu, but she can be regarded as a rare beauty. Coupled with a clever smile and a full chest, it is indeed quite charming.
There are many diners who are talking, and their eyes always look at the proprietress from time to time.
It wasn't until she noticed that Li Xiushu, who was more outstanding and temperamental, that she showed a stunning appearance. In particular, there are suave sons and daughters among the diners, and they do not hide the eager look in their eyes.
My Fair Lady, Gentleman. If you don't ask, someone else will ask.
In this era, it is common for the son to have three wives and four concubines, and it is strange not to have a good heart when he sees a beauty like Li Xiushu.
Especially this kind of non-local son, he is used to being powerful and prosperous in his homeland, and when he comes to Leizhou, he will inevitably have some superior indifference.
This is as if many people in the Central Plains regard outsiders as indigenous.
However, Zhao Dongting and the others all carried blades and put them on the table, which also made these sons and brothers a little afraid. didn't immediately show any obscene appearance.
Zhao Dongting's eyes swept over the people in the room, then looked at the proprietress again, and said, "Boss, bring all the good wine and food you have here." β
The proprietress smiled calmly, but seemed to be from a well-known family, and nodded slightly, "Okay, please wait." β
Then he walked towards the kitchen.
There should be no small house in this inn, just a husband and wife workshop.
After a short wait, a plate of snacks was served.
Li Xiushu has lived in the palace all the year round, and probably has never received such a strange look. After a slight gloomy color in her beautiful eyes, she just looked down at the desktop.
But this made those sons and brothers even more nervous.
When Zhao Dongting and the others moved their chopsticks, after all, someone came forward with a wine glass, smiled at Zhao Dongting and the others, and then shouted to the proprietress: "Boss, the food of the brothers and seniors at this table is mine." β
His voice was quite strange, and he was obviously not familiar with this side of the conversation.
As he spoke, he looked at Zhao Dongting and the others again, with a slight playfulness in his eyes, and said, "I wonder if I can know this girl's name?" β
When he saw that Li Xiushu was sitting alone, he felt that Li Xiushu should be ownerless.
Just ask the name, it's nothing in this day and age.
Zhao Dongting said indifferently, "The money doesn't have to be paid by this son, we are not short of money." This girl, it's better not to make up your mind. β
He didn't like this frivolity very much.
Brother Gongzi was slightly stunned, then smiled, and then retreated, but this smile and eyes were already revealing dissatisfaction and unkindness.
Zhao Dongting's demeanor and words were undoubtedly a little arrogant in his eyes.
Who is not a child?
The proprietress walked to the kitchen one after another, twisted her willow waist, and brought up plates of dishes.
Zhao Dongting did not pick and choose like the emperors of previous dynasties, and he would taste every dish. The taste is really good, worthy of such a business, but I don't know what the price is.
When the proprietress brought the ninth course, the boy who had just spoken suddenly got up, as if he was drunk.
He seemed to inadvertently bump into the proprietress again, so he hurriedly retreated and apologized again and again.
The proprietress was slightly dissatisfied, but she didn't say anything.
Brother Gongzi looked at Zhao Dongting and the others with a vague look in his eyes.
"Huh."
Miao King Kumano suddenly chuckled.
Zhao Dongting is also playful.
The trick of this foreign boy fell in the eyes of these people, not to mention Kumano, who was proficient in Gu arts, even in front of others, it was just an axe.
It's nothing more than a dizzy drug in your sleeve. His movements are so obvious, who wouldn't see that something is wrong?
"Huh."
As soon as the proprietress put this plate of braised fish on the table, Zhao Dongting picked it up with a chuckle and looked at the boy, "This dish will be given to you to eat, how about it?" β
Brother Gongzi chuckled harmlessly, "Brother is polite." We don't know each other, how dare I take care of my little brother. β
Zhao Dongting walked straight towards their table, "Then if it's this dish, what if this son has to give it?" β
It's not so kind.
Brother Gongzi and the faces of the people at his table suddenly collapsed. The tables next to it were full of interest.
It's not a big deal to watch the lively.
Brother Gongzi said with a cold face: "You are asking for trouble." β
There was a servant next to him who had even drawn a knife slightly.
Zhao Dongting put the braised fish on the table and said slowly: "It seems that you outsiders don't understand the truth that the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, and you play such a trick in Leizhou, I am afraid that you think that Leizhou is easy to bully, and the Great Song Dynasty is easy to bully." If you eat this fish, you will stop this matter, and if you don't eat it, don't blame me for really asking you for trouble. β
Leizhou does HNA business, and it is considered to be harmonious and wealthy, but Zhao Dongting never wants to see outsiders in Leizhou.
It's a dragon, and when it comes to the Great Song Dynasty, it has to be coiled.
Brother Gongzi's hired servant pulled out the blade and glared angrily.
Looking at the momentum, none of them are weak.
This boy obviously has a lot of background.
Zhao Dongting remained silent.
The next few artistic conceptions are surging.
The inn was turbulent for a moment, and several invisible energies swept by.
The dishes on the table shook and jingled.
The table and dishes of Brother Gongzi, who bore the brunt of the attack, were shattered in an instant.
"Ahh
The proprietress exclaimed in a low voice.
Brother Gongzi and his hired servants all change color, which is involved in the artistic conception.
They must not be regarded as mediocre hands, they have Zhongyuan Realm cultivation, but they are undoubtedly far from Hong Wutian and the others.
This time, I met the iron plate.
Brother Gongzi finally came back to his senses, and his face showed solemnity. However, there is not much fear, and it is obvious that it has a strong background.
Zhao Dongting sneered and wanted to speak again.
But at this time, a middle-aged man came out of the kitchen quickly.
He just looked at the proprietress with his eyes, "Su'er, what's wrong?" β
He was still holding a glistening kitchen knife in his hand.
It wasn't until he said this that he seemed to realize that the atmosphere in the inn was wrong. His expression instantly became a little solemn, and his eyes swept over the faces of everyone in the inn. In the end, it fell on Tie Liduan's face and became extremely surprised and shocked.
Tie Li's sword intent dissipated violently, and he stood up in shock.
"Xiaolinzi!"
"Iron ...... Uncle Tieshi! β
Life encounters are always so casual.
Zhao Dongting and the others all showed surprise on their faces.
A few artistic conceptions quietly dispersed.
Zhao Dongting stood in place, not paying attention to Brother Gongzi and those hired servants, and looked back at Tie Liduan.
The boss holding the kitchen knife suddenly threw away the kitchen knife, walked to the side of the boss lady and took the hand of the boss lady, and then walked to Tie Liduan, kneeling on the ground, "Uncle Shi!" β
An iron-clad man shouted these two words, but he was crying slightly. His wife also knelt down, but there was inevitably a slight puzzle in her eyes.
She didn't deliberately pursue her husband's past, she just thought that he was probably an ordinary person. But now, apparently, this is not the case.
These guests are by no means ordinary people.
But feeling her husband holding her hand slightly, that warm feeling faded away some of the complaints in her heart.
He didn't say it, there must be a reason for him.
She thought so.
Tie Liduan stretched out his hand to help Lin Chong and the proprietress up, "Get up!" I didn't expect to see you again in this life, and seeing that you are living such a life now, Uncle Shi is also relieved. β
The servants knew that these people were not ordinary people, and they took Gongzi and prepared to leave quietly. Brother Childe was a little angry, but he didn't want to stay here.
He knew he wasn't going to please right now.
However, Zhao Dongting suddenly moved and stopped them: "Do you want to leave?" Let's eat the fish first! β
This son-in-law's blatant use of such dirty methods here has already given him real fire.
