When I arrived at Iron Bull Town, it was already the time to hold the lights.
The town is built on the edge of the mountain and water, and there are streets running through it. The shops on both sides of the hillside are scattered, and the lights are gradually lit up.
However, when Wu Yi stood in the small courtyard of Ruyi Restaurant, he was still a little depressed.
Sometimes, it's bad luck to be unclear.
Inexplicably, he broke a jade cup and was saddled with a huge debt. It is a hundred gold, worth thousands of taels of silver, even if a big living person is broken and sold, he can't afford to lose such a price. Fortunately, Liao Cai was still generous, although he couldn't stop complaining about the preciousness of the jade cup, he did not force a claim, but invited him to continue to walk. The situation is really hard to shirk. So, I rushed here with my entourage.
Ruyi Restaurant, at the east end of the town, has a small building with three sides and two floors next to the street, enclosing a large courtyard of dozens of zhang. There is a courtyard gate on one side, and an oil-paper lantern is hung, on which are written two black characters of "Ruyi". Standing in the courtyard, the smell of urine in the stable, the smell of fumes in the room, and the inexplicable smell of fragrant powder came together, making people a little overwhelmed and dizzy. Faintly, there was the sound of silk and bamboo and the sound of laughter.
Looking at the unfamiliar place, he had a hidden guess, and couldn't help but say: "Brother Liao, I'd better find another place!"
Liao Cai led people into the courtyard and whispered to the men who greeted him. After a while, he didn't look back and walked away, but raised his hand to a row of houses in the corner of the courtyard and signaled: "Rest for the time being, you will have your own arrangements later!"
Wu Yi still wanted to theorize, but two stout guys ran over and stopped behind him, and their expressions were not good, and they were simply forcibly staying guests.
Apricot and jujube looked left and right, a pair of dazed expressions.
It was too late to leave, frowned, hesitated for a moment, stretched out his hand to protect the two girls beside him, tightened the package on his back, took the lead and walked towards the hut, and almost talked to the guy at the head: "I didn't expect Brother Liao to be the shopkeeper of Ruyifang, it's really hard to ......be warm!
The guy called himself Wang Gui, and said with a cold face: "Hmph, that's not the shopkeeper, but the Liao steward of Ruyi Fang!"
Ruyi Restaurant has become Ruyi Fang. Liao Cai also became Liao's housekeeper. And what will happen next, I'm afraid that everything will not go as expected!
But he didn't think so, and took the opportunity to talk and laugh with the three guys.
In addition to Wang Gui, who is the leader of the other party, the remaining two are also in their twenties, called Shunzi and Qian Wang, respectively, they all sound very auspicious, but they are just rough and obedient virtues, and they don't look like good people.
"Crunch"
The hut opened at the sound of the door, and the heat and humidity rushed in.
Blameless grinned wryly and walked into the house with the two children. The oil lamp was about to be lit, and the door slammed shut.
Looking at it in the dim light, the small room was full of wooden boxes, wine jars, oil cans and other miscellaneous items.
This is the place of rest, and it is clearly where the treasury is located.
Wu Ji looked at the closed door, stunned for a moment, then found a wooden box to sit on, and put down the package, seeing Xing'er and Zao'er snuggling together at a loss, comforted: "Since Steward Liao and you are relatives, they will never have bad intentions......"
The two girls had sweat stains and stains on their faces, and they were still nervous. One of the apricots said timidly: "Sir, the two of us were bought, and we are not related to Steward Liao......
Well, you've run into human traffickers.
However, what is Ruyifang going to do when he locks this son here?
Blameless and unfathomable, he smiled at the two poor children and said, "The elders of your two families should not be! Even if life is difficult, you can't sell your children and daughters......
Apricot and Zao'er lowered their heads, looking even more miserable and helpless.
Without any blame, he sighed secretly, looked around, stretched out his nose and sniffed, got up and opened a wooden box, which was filled with persimmons, covered with hoarfrost one by one, and had a sweet taste. Open the adjacent box again, which contains the fried fruit. He was happy, reached out and grabbed the persimmons and fruits and stuffed them into his mouth, not forgetting to greet: "Apricots, dates, you're welcome, just eat ......."
The sisters blinked, stayed where they were, not daring to move.
Blameless but as unscrupulous as if he had arrived at his own home, while eating, he rummaged through the boxes, and said to himself: "Dare to imprison this son, hum ......"
At this time, the door is wide open.
Liao Cai walked into the house with two guys and was stunned. The boxes that had been neatly placed had been opened four or five, and the food inside had been thrown everywhere, and some people had stepped on the boxes and climbed high. Looking at the situation, it is not willing to give up if the treasury is turned upside down.
Smelling the movement, he slowly got off the box, his mouth was not idle, and he said vaguely: "It's very important to rest here...... I don't have to worry about eating and drinking, but I don't have to worry about tea......"
Liao Cai's face was gloomy, and he suppressed his anger: "Mr. Wu is so presumptuous, isn't it insulting to Sven?"
Wu Yi stretched out his hand to wipe the corners of his mouth, and his voice became refreshing: "When I was a gentleman, I was always polite and ......" He dusted off the crumbs of fruit on his body, and asked instead, "But I don't know why Brother Liao locked me up here?"
Liao Cai was too lazy to talk nonsense, reached out and took out a piece of paper and a pen, and said ruthlessly: "You ruined my jade cup, but you can't afford to compensate, please sign the paperwork and sell yourself into slavery from now on!"
This abrupt change is not without cause. On the way back from Liao Cai's outing, he accidentally met no blame, but when the other party was a weak and bullying and down-and-out scholar, he couldn't help but have a bad heart, so he designed to earn, and it was done without much effort. You must know that the bookkeeper of Ruyifang went home to recuperate, and at this time there was a lack of a person who knew how to read and keep accounts.
Liao Cai said proudly: "The hundred gold you owe cannot be denied, otherwise I will break your legs!" Before his words fell, Wang Gui and Qian Wang behind him stepped forward and rolled up their sleeves.
Wuyi stretched out his head to look at the paperwork prepared in Liao Cai's hand, and then looked at the two fierce guys beside him, and hurriedly raised his hand and said, "Slow down...... Since Brother Liao wants to invite Mr. Accounts, he clearly said it, so why bother to do it......"
Liao Cai's dark face trembled, and his smile became more and more gloomy: "Hehe! Ruyi Fang is a green building, and he never invites outsiders to be the bookkeeper." Only house slaves, convenient to drive at will!"
Under the dim oil lamp, several faces close at hand had different expressions. Xing'er and Zao'er crowded in the corner and didn't dare to speak, while Liao Cai and the two guys became more and more domineering.
Wu Yi only felt that the warehouse was unbearably hot, and he couldn't help wiping the sweat from his forehead.
As expected, Ruyi Fang is a green building. And the so-called Mr. Bookkeeper is nothing more than a turtle slave. In this way, the two children of Xing'er and Zao'er fell into the fire pit!
is a good Liao Cai and Liao housekeeper, it turned out that it was premeditated, and my son had no grievances with you, so he dared to design and frame him like this......
Blameless's eyes flashed, and he suddenly said with relief: "Since Brother Liao has the heart to reward a bowl of rice to eat, why bother playing tricks like this." I'm worried that I have nowhere to stay, and I ...... at this time" He grabbed the pen and paper, waved his hand, and then returned it to the other party, not without rejoicing: "I hope Brother Liao will take care of it in the future, if there is a beautiful Jiao * Niang, you may wish to introduce one or two, and the building near the water will get the moon first, hehe......"
He smiled a little excitedly, quite a bit of a prodigal demeanor.
Liao Cai thought that he would have to do a lot of tricks to get his wish, but who expected that the scholar in front of him was not only as timid as a mouse, but also an idle merry ghost, he raised the selling document and looked at it, sneered, and said: "That's it, come with me with the package......
Seeing that Liao Cai and the three of them had retreated, he reached out and grabbed the package and was about to follow, but he saw Xing'er and Zao'er snuggling together, and with a panicked and helpless look, he paused slightly, raised a finger to his mouth and smiled easily, and then swaggered out. And when he was about to come to the courtyard, the man Wang Gui had closed the warehouse and locked the latch.
Liao Cai had already led the way in front of the head, and in a blink of an eye, he came to the eaves of the first floor of the building not far away, and signaled to a room with a hidden door: "Mr. Wu, you live with Wang Gui, and after tonight, go to meet the shopkeeper again......" His voice fell, and he took his man Qian Wangyang away.
Wang Gui walked over directly, raised his foot and kicked open the door, and said impatiently: "Please......"
Wu Ji looked back at Liao Cai's back, glanced at the treasury when he came, and then smiled: "It's an honor to live in the same room with Brother Wang!"
Wang Gui also ignored people, with an arrogant face.
Wu Yi had to walk into the house slowly, and another strange smell came to his nose. He was so smoked that he staggered, and Wang Gui had already passed by, and fell on a wooden couch, and raised his feet and pillowed his arms, ignoring him coldly.
There were two wooden couches in the room, which looked spacious, but by the bright candlelight on the table, they were disheveled, with dirty clothes, broken shoes, and bedding thrown everywhere, and an inexplicable sour smell.
Where is this where people live, it is clearly a pig's nest!
Wu Yi saw the scene in the house and grinned secretly. In desperation, he walked to the empty bed and put down the package, turned his head and asked, "Brother Wang, can you point me a place to wash?"
Wang Gui rolled his eyes and replied lazily: "Scholars are poor and exquisite, I only know where to and pee......"
Hmph, and follow the locals!
Wuyi nodded and smiled bitterly, leaned over to clean up the bed, but noticed that a pair of eyes did not leave his left and right, and put on a guard's posture. He was unconscious, lying down to rest, and in a daze, someone came to the door and shouted: "Mr. Wu, the shopkeeper wants to see you......"
Didn't you say that you would meet the shopkeeper tomorrow, why did you change your hexagram again?
Wu Yi looked at Liao Cai standing in front of the door, secretly puzzled, didn't ask much, slowly walked out of the house, but said uneasily: "My package ......"
Wang Gui followed and walked out, but he didn't leave an inch: "Just a few of your belongings, no one will pick them up if you throw them on the street......"
Wu Yi had to shrug his shoulders and smile awkwardly at Liao Cai. The other snorted in his nose and turned away with his hands behind his back. He hurriedly followed, taking the opportunity to look around.
More than ten zhang in front of the corridor, there is a turning staircase. Follow the wooden ladder "dong dong" upstairs, and then walk through the doors with lights on, suddenly there are inexplicable sounds into the ears, which makes people's hearts pound. When the movement subsided, the hallway came to an end......
