Chapter 7: Making Something Out of Nothing
The boss was a little puzzled by this move, and looked at the silver in his hand in a daze, yes, the silver is not fake, it is full of ten taels.
Obviously so rich, you don't need to look for ten taels of silver, why do you care about the thirty dollars on the table? The boss didn't understand, unless the man must be sick.
The middle-aged man in Chinese clothes picked up the thirty yuan and put it away seriously, not to mention that the stall owner couldn't understand it, even the people around him couldn't understand it.
"Master, isn't it time to go back?" The big man who paid the silver asked carefully.
"Don't worry, it's not too late to eat the noodles and come back!" The middle-aged man in Chinese clothes really sat back down, picked up chopsticks and ate them.
The rest of the people sat down stiffly, and the middle-aged man in Chinese clothes had already taken several bites, glanced at them and said lightly: "Eat, why don't you eat?" Try the best noodles! ”
After speaking, the middle-aged man in Chinese clothes continued to eat, eating very seriously. When the rest of the people heard this, they immediately began to eat, not only seriously, but even a little solemn.
When the middle-aged man finished eating, the rest of the people also finished eating, and the soup was not left, and the time was just right.
The middle-aged man in Chinese clothes smiled and asked, "Li Yan, how is this cheeky face?" Is it tasty? ”
Thinking about the shark fin noodles in the broth he ate in the morning, Li Yan nodded and said, "It's delicious!" ”
The middle-aged man in Chinese clothes just smiled when he heard this, looked back at the direction where the carriage disappeared, and said a little stunned: "Go back!" ”
A few people quietly gathered the middle-aged man in Chinese clothes and walked out of the noodle stall, and gradually moved away, the people on the noodle stall did not notice, and I don't know how many people in black went away in the dark.
Tang Ning didn't know what was going on, he didn't know that the big money he had carefully counted had been picked up, and he didn't know that people had taken out ten taels of silver for white flowers at will.
Tang Ning was just a little proud, that charlatan was put on a show by him, and he didn't cheat a penny from him at all!
The night was still very joyful, and the noodles were indeed delicious, but there was less cicadas around the noodle stalls, which inevitably lost a bit of interest. He couldn't have understood why there were so few cicadas at the noodle stalls.
The most important thing now is to find a place to live, fortunately it is not difficult, although it is not cheap.
Although there will be a fat beating in the near future, Tang Ning didn't take it too seriously, and he lived extremely freely. The capital is prosperous, the scenery is unique, and Tangning wanders around freely to browse the beautiful scenery of the capital.
also took advantage of not being beaten to go to the world-famous Liufang River, to Tang Ning's relief, the girl in red did not appear again. Maybe they have forgotten about him, or maybe they think that letting him be beaten is already a punishment, which is the best.
The chic days are always short-lived, the fifteenth day finally came, Tang Ning went to the Yamen of the Ministry of War with high spirits, even if he was beaten, he couldn't let the girl see the joke!
There was a lot of traffic in front of the yamen of the military department, and Tang Ning's old carriage looked out of place. The yamen of the military department was even more lively, and young people in brocade clothes and gorgeous clothes were talking to each other.
Tang Ning came late, and squeezed into the yamen of the military department, and the young men in brocade clothes frowned when they saw this, how did this little guy wear it so cheaply? This is the Yamen of the Ministry of War, can a small guy come in?
"Squeeze what? Who's a little guy, there are no rules at all! This is the Yamen of the Ministry of War, can you come in? Don't go out and wait yet! A young man in brocade clothes was squeezed, frowned and scolded.
Tang Ning was stunned for a moment and realized that this person was talking about himself, and said with some anger: "What kind of eyes do you have?" I'm here to participate in the martial arts! ”
Since ancient times, the poor have been rich and martial, let alone come to participate in the military election, and it is only the children of powerful families who have this opportunity.
The surroundings immediately quieted down, and everyone looked at Tang Ning, Tang Ning's outfit didn't look like a child of a family, and he didn't even wear as good as their little girl.
"Hmph, full of nonsense, I'm afraid it's not a madman from somewhere! Can anyone participate in the martial arts? The young man in Chinese clothes snorted coldly, and then glanced at the little official of the military department and said dissatisfiedly: "What are you still doing in a daze?" Don't get the irrelevant out yet! ”
When the little officer of the military department heard this, he really stepped forward, and Tang Ning was very angry when he saw this, he was really deceitful! No wonder the girl in red wanted to participate in the martial arts election by herself, it turned out that she not only let herself be beaten by fat, but also humiliated herself in every way!
At this moment, Wu Xuan Shilang heard the commotion and walked over, frowning, "What happened?" ”
Although the official position of Wuxuan Shilang is not high, there are only five grades, but it is a fat difference in real power, and it is just in charge of Wuxuan, the so-called county officials are not as good as the current management, and these children of the family are also polite.
"My lord, this crazy man who doesn't know where he came from broke into the yamen of the military department, saying that he was here to participate in the military election, it's really ridiculous, haha." The brocade-clothed boy said disdainfully.
Wu Xuan Shilang Zhong was very impressed by Tang Ning, after all, he was personally accompanied by the daughter of the Zhenyuan General's Mansion.
"He's really here to participate in the martial arts election, okay, let's get ready to go to the school in a while!" Wu Xuan Shilang explained a few words and left, leaving everyone stunned.
They really didn't expect that this plainly dressed young man really came to participate in the martial arts election, the brocade-clothed young man couldn't hold it on his face, and snorted coldly: "The way of the world has really changed, all cats and dogs have come to participate in the martial arts election!" I don't know which poor relatives of the family, who came in vain, and they are not afraid of being embarrassed! ”
Tang Ning was furious when he heard this, but he smiled slightly: "Yes! What cats and dogs have also come to participate in the martial arts election, people can't say a little, they know that dogs bark! ”
The young man in brocade clothes heard the anger on his face, and then a chubby young man came forward with a smile on his face and persuaded him: "Brother Li, why should you be angry, it is also a kind of fate for everyone to participate in the martial arts election together, maybe they will still be comrades in the future, why hurt the harmony!" ”
After that, the chubby young man looked at Tang Ning and smiled gently: "This brother is very good-looking, I don't know which son's son?" ”
Tang Ning raised his eyebrows slightly, and said with a smile: "Childe? No, I'm just a hunter on a mountain! Why, aren't you hunting? I thought that the people who participated in this martial arts were all hunting! ”
The chubby young man was stunned when he heard this, and his face immediately turned red, he was hunting! He thought that this was a teenager with a special fetish, and the chubby boy smiled dryly: "Hehe, hehe, it turns out that you are hunting!" "Say it and go back.
The people around were stunned when they heard this, what the hell is hunting? Everyone present is a son of a family, who is hunting? I haven't heard of a hunter coming to participate in the martial arts!
The teenagers, who were already a little far away from Tang Ning, suddenly took a step back, as if they had lost their share when they stood with Tang Ning!
