Lu Chengfeng followed the sound and looked outside.

I saw a man wearing a black satin robe sitting in a private seat inside, with a bamboo hat on his head. The long black gauze hanging from the bamboo hat covered his face, making it difficult to see clearly.

However, judging from the voice he spoke just now, he should be a middle-aged man, probably in his forties.

The man in black was leaning forward towards the table.

Through the mysterious black veil that covered his face, Lu Chengfeng could feel the seriousness of the person coming, staring at the other person sitting opposite him.

Opposite him, a man was sitting upright. He was dressed in Ruyi moiré satin and Yunyan fine brocade clothes, which shone with a low-key yet gorgeous luster under the simple light.

Lu Chengfeng could only see the back of this man. However, from this back alone, he could tell that he was one of the nobles and celebrities in Jinghua City.

Just as I was curious, I heard the young man wearing a Ruyi cloud-patterned satin dress and Yunyan fine brocade clothes chuckle softly:

"Oh? Could it be that you know how to meet each other?"

"What you said is absolutely true! Not only can I meet you, but I can also predict the future and give you fame and fortune, how about it?"

The man in black not only didn't care about the ridicule of the young master opposite, but even more enthusiastically took the initiative to ask for help.

The young master in Jinyi chuckled a few more times. His voice sounded very young and gentle, but it was three-quarters ridiculed, three-quarters cold and a bit impatient. He waved his hand and said:

"Since you know how to predict things, why don't you seek a high-ranking official and a generous salary for yourself? Or, do a calculation for yourself and see where the gold and silver treasures can be lost? You said you want to give me fame, well, why don't you do the calculation first?

Last calculation, what will be tested in the Spring Examination on February 2 this year?"

Before the man in black across from him could speak, the young man in brocade chuckled again and said softly:

"Humph, don't you dare to say it? Just like this, you dare to boast in front of me?"

The man in black smiled calmly and said slowly:

"If I don't have some real information, how can I dare to show off in front of the young master? Don't worry, don't be in a hurry, since the young master is here, why don't you take it as it comes, and let's eat and talk?"

Lu Chengfeng clearly felt his calm and unmoving aura. Although the man's expression under the black veil was still unclear, he must have been as calm and calm as his tone.

The young man in Jinyi was silent for a moment, wondering in his mind what kind of medicine the mysterious man in front of him was selling in the gourd.

The man in black snapped his fingers and said a bright greeting:

"Boy, give me two taels of steamed buns!"

After Lu Chengfeng heard this, the doubts in his heart couldn't help but become more complicated.

I thought to myself, not only does this person look mysterious and mysterious, his behavior is also really puzzling.

Who comes to Jiuxianju and neither drinks nor enjoys the exquisite delicacies on jade plates here, but instead calls them steamed buns?

Even if I met a shabby drinker like Tian Zifang here, it was just a bottle of sake without food and drinks.

The waiter in the shop rushed forward, but his eyes widened and he was speechless in surprise.

After the air was quiet for a few seconds, the waiter asked a little embarrassedly:

"Here, sir, what you just ordered was two ounces of steamed buns? We have some steamed buns in our store, but do you only want two ounces of steamed buns? According to the size of the steamed buns in our store, maybe only two ounces of steamed buns.

one……"

Before he finished speaking, the waiter realized that his words might be discriminatory, so he immediately tried to smooth things over with a smile and explained:

"I don't mean anything else. I'm just worried that you two won't have enough to eat in our store. That means our Jiuxianju doesn't serve you well. Otherwise, let's see if you two want something else.

Dishes? May I give you two good recommendations?"

Upon hearing this, the young man in brocade raised his right hand high in the air. He was about to ask for something, but was interrupted by the low, hoarse but decisive voice of the man in black, saying:

"No need! Just give us two taels of steamed buns!"

The waiter's eyes widened, and his jaw almost dropped in shock at the strange and mysterious person in front of him.

The young man in Jinyi must have lost his temper. He waved his hand quickly and greeted the waiter in a warm voice:

"This friend of mine loves to eat steamed buns. You should arrange them as he said. I will order more later if needed. By the way, Taibaixian will prepare two pots for me."

Only then did the waiter react. He let out a happy reply from his throat, quickly wiped a rag on the table for two, then threw it over his shoulder, and hurriedly ran downstairs.

Not long after, the waiter came back with a big food plate.

In the middle of the big wooden food plate, apart from the two small Taibaixian silver pots that Lu Chengfeng was very familiar with, there was only a small plate, with a fat white steamed bun lying in it.

The plump white steamed bun had just come from the plate to the polished Eight Immortals table, and was steaming out.

As soon as the waiter left, the man in black put his two fingers on the edge of the small plate containing the steamed buns, gently pushed it towards the other side of the table, and his deep and hoarse voice sounded again, saying:

"Sir, please use it slowly."

Opposite the man in black, the young master in brocade clothes was obviously dumbfounded. He looked at the person opposite with surprise and suspicion, and then he blankly picked up the fat white steamed bun and opened it gently.

But I saw a small round substance hidden inside the fluffy, soft and glutinous bun.

Young Master Jinyi opened it gently, and the small round substance rolled down onto the table.

"This, what is this?"

Mr. Jinyi picked up the round thing that looked somewhat similar to star anise and cinnamon and asked with a suspicious look on his face.

"I'm sorry, I made a mistake just now. The steamed buns are not steamed buns anymore because they have added fillings. They are steamed buns. These are the steamed buns I ordered for the young master."

The man in black laughed twice and joked. His tone sounded extremely serious, not like he was joking.

"oh?"

Mr. Jinyi carefully looked at the round "octagonal cinnamon" in front of him, and then rubbed it vigorously in his hands.

The round thing suddenly cracked open!

Inside, there was actually a tiny piece of paper!

Young Master Jinyi was stunned!

"This, this is?"

"A small greeting gift is not respectful, so please accept it with a smile."

The man in black nodded slightly to the opposite side and made a virtual salute calmly and gracefully.

After finishing speaking, he made a "please" gesture to the person opposite.

Mr. Jinyi carefully picked up the small piece of paper, took a deep breath, and then gently unfolded it.

I saw a line of extremely beautiful small characters on it, which read:

"To the people of the world, gather the world's own goods."

Young Master Jin Yi was overjoyed when he saw it. He suppressed his excitement, then lowered his voice and asked doubtfully:

"Sir, is this what you just said, do you want to show me your skills?"

The man in black paused and said mysteriously:

"The mountains are not high and the water is not deep. The young master has great ambitions. He only needs to borrow the east wind to realize his great ambitions!"

Lu Chengfeng was listening to the wall in the private room next door, and his ears almost stood up.

After listening to the young man in brocade pondering for a moment, he suddenly slapped the table and said seriously:

"Okay, you are a wandering warlock, how dare you pretend to be a ghost in our capital city to defraud people out of money! Am I that easy to be fooled? Who asked you to come here? Why don't you hurry up and recruit me?"

Lu Chengfeng listened and couldn't help but poke his head out of the corner again.

The man in black was extremely calm, sitting motionless on the other side of the Eight Immortals table, tapping the table with his right fingers, tilting his head and looking steadily at the young man in brocade across from him, and said unhurriedly:

"This is your first time to attend the Spring Festival, isn't it? Let me tell you, it's up to people to plan things, and it's up to God to make things happen. Now is a God-given opportunity, why should I hesitate, Master? No one sent me here, don't worry, if so, then

I am the messenger sent by God to help you. Haha."

The young man in brocade raised his neck high and rebuked in a condescending tone:

"Tell me! What do you want to do when you invite me here and perform such a trick?"

"That's right! Let's finally get to the point! The villain is not talented, he just eats this bowl of rice and looks for the young master to make a living. If the young master believes in the opportunity that the villain brings today, he will definitely be able to be named on the gold list! The young master can also do it

I don’t believe it, but think about it, is your future fame and fortune only worth this little money?”

The man in black stretched out a palm and gestured to the young master sitting opposite, while shaking his head with a smile.

Lu Chengfeng saw clearly that it was a "five" gesture.

Could it be that he wanted to blackmail someone out of five hundred taels of silver?

When the young man in Jinyi was questioned in this way, the hidden desires in the most secret place in his heart were stirred up. It was like the past that had sunk at the bottom of the sea was brought back to the surface by the undercurrent under the huge waves.

My heart couldn't calm down for a long time.

He lowered his head and considered it for a long time. If this person meant what he said, then using five hundred taels of silver in exchange for a bright future would be a very good deal. You can calculate it clearly with your toes.

However, this person looked suspicious, and he was probably just a charlatan who knew how to do street tricks. Maybe he was targeted for blackmail because of his rich family fortune and his youth and arrogance.

Anyway, five hundred taels of silver is just a piece of cake for his family.

Forget it, just send him away with five hundred taels of silver!

Young Master Jinyi thought so, then he raised his head and asked:

"Are you asking for five hundred taels? Okay! I'll give it to you, and you can go! What happens today is known to heaven and earth, and you know it and I know it!"

The man in black shook his head, crossed his arms and stared at the richly dressed young man opposite him, spread his fingers again, and said:

"It's not five hundred taels, it's fifty thousand taels!"

"Fifty thousand taels! You robbed me!"

Mr. Jin Yi's temples were twitching with anger. If it weren't for his strict upbringing, he would have wanted to curse the blackmailing liar in front of him.

"Yes, it's fifty thousand taels! One cent is a lot! Don't worry, sir, with these fifty thousand taels, I will automatically disappear from Jinghua City immediately! I will never mention today's incident to anyone! Otherwise, hehehehe..."
Chapter completed!
