After lunch, Zhu Pingan paid the bill. The shopkeeper came over with a smile and said, "Hahaha, I originally wanted to give you zero money, but it's exactly two hundred cents, so I can't even wipe it off."
Hearing this, the little loli girl rolled her eyes.
"Hypocrisy!" The naughty kid waved his fat face and looked down upon the shopkeeper.
"It's easy. I happen to be not full yet. Give me two more buns and you can wipe the zero off."
Zhu Ping'an rubbed the naughty boy's head, looked up at the shopkeeper, slightly raised his lips and smiled brightly, showing the innocent smile of a sunny boy.
Ahem
The shopkeeper seemed to be choked when he heard this, and with a dark face he ordered the waiter to go to the back kitchen and get two meat buns.
After a while, Zhu Pingan led two young ones out of the restaurant with two meat buns wrapped in mulberry leaf paper.
In the restaurant at the back, the shopkeeper had a dark look on his face.
After leaving the restaurant, the naughty child admired Zhu Pingan so much that little loli Niuniu's eyes also shone when she looked at Zhu Pingan.
"They first used chicken racks to pretend to be chickens, and the store was bullying customers, so I gave them a small lesson. We can't imitate them in doing things. We must pay attention to integrity in life. People can't stand without trust, and stores can't thrive without trust. They
Sooner or later, the store will fail due to breach of trust." Zhu Pingan touched the heads of the two little ones and instilled in them the importance of integrity.
I don't know how serious it is.
The two little ones nodded ignorantly.
After walking for a while, Zhu Pingan gave two meat buns to a child held by Lifu, and chatted with Lifu.
I learned that Lifu was from a village ten miles outside the capital, and his name was Zhang Dazhu. When Anda Khan sent troops to siege the capital in August last year, he destroyed the crops in their village, causing them to lose all their autumn harvest. In order to survive, the strong men in their village
All the laborers came to Qihuamen Wharf to make a living by moving goods.
They were a bit tired, but on weekdays, they could earn almost a hundred cash a day. When the time came to transport grain, they could earn dozens more cash, which was more than what they had earned while farming.
So since last year, the strong laborers in their village have come to Qihuamen Wharf to earn some extra money during the slack season.
When talking about diet, Zhang Dazhu felt a little distressed.
They all had dinner at home early in the morning and then came to the dock to work, and only had one lunch here. But even if they only had one lunch, it made them feel a little distressed. The restaurants here are not cheap. In order to have more time
They were working and they didn't have time to go far away to eat, so they could only eat here.
They work hard and must eat enough. But if they are full, they will have to eat at least four or five pancakes to be full. It is not possible to eat dry food. Just a dish and a bowl of soup will cost more than 20 yuan in one meal.
arts.
As for meat and vegetables, they are generally reluctant to order them. They can only bite the bullet and order meat and vegetables to replenish their health when their health is very weak, or they have to work too much and need to supplement their nutrition.
When Zhang Dazhu mentioned the restaurant, he complained a lot. For example, everything in the store costs money, tea costs money, even garlic costs money, the pancakes are expensive and the food is not very good.
Eat, but look down upon others, and rush to beg them after eating. The table is not wiped clean, and the floor is not clean either.
After bidding farewell to Zhang Dazhu, Zhu Ping'an looked at other nearby restaurants and listened to other people's evaluations of the restaurants.
Generally speaking, the restaurants here don't seem to be very popular, and they all have some problems: expensive prices, bad taste, questionable service attitude, bad environment, etc.
There are many problems.
Zhu Pingan glanced at the rows of restaurants and sighed.
Near the city gate of Qihuamen, there is a small stall of a candy blower, and many people gathered around it. When the naughty children saw it, their little eyes lit up, and so did the little loli's eyes.
"Let's go and take a look."
Zhu Pingan picked up the little Loli with one hand and led the naughty child towards the candy man stall.
The candy blower is an old man with a white beard. The stall is a rectangular cabinet with a shelf. The cabinet has several drawers, where maltose cubes and reed rods are placed. There is a half-meter round hole under the cabinet, and inside the round hole are placed
There is a small charcoal stove, and there is a shelf above the cabinet. On the shelf are various candy figures made by the old man, including chickens, piglets, rabbits, etc. They are very cute and pleasing.
There were many children gathered in front of the stall, some of them led by adults.
The children passing by are basically like naughty children. They can't walk when they see them.
Even if they didn’t have money to buy, they would not leave around the candy player’s stall. When they didn’t see the old man blowing out a candy player, the children cheered in surprise. The children who spent money to buy the candy player took the candy player from the old man’s hand.
When passing a candy person, it's like getting a certificate of merit, you are so majestic and proud, and you accept the envy of the children around you.
Zhu Ping'an gave the money to the naughty boy. The naughty boy took the money and squeezed away the children who were watching, and dragged him in. Under the envious eyes of the children, he shouted: "Give me the two most expensive candy men, one is a boy."
Of, a girl."
The old man took the money with a smile, took a piece of warm maltose next to the charcoal stove, and squeezed it skillfully with both hands. The maltose turned into a round ball, and then the old man pressed a small hole in the ball.
He used his hands to pull out a long airway. He then brought it to his lips and blew, and the warm maltose swelled up. While blowing, he skillfully held it with both hands, and soon a man was riding a dragon into the sea.
The third prince of Nezha appeared vividly
"Sister, give it."
The naughty child took the Third Prince Nezha and Magu Xianshou from the old man's hands. Under the envious eyes of many children, he walked out draggingly and placed Magu Xiansu and the treasures into the hands of little Loli Niu Niu.
"Thank you, brother-in-law."
After little Loli Niuniu took the candy man, she narrowed her big round eyes and sweetly thanked Zhu Pingan. Her brother-in-law paid for the candy man.
The naughty kid looked at Zhu Pingan with a resentful look on his face.
"Thank you brother Rui."
However, the next second, after hearing the thank you from the little Loli Niuniu, the naughty child's little fat face suddenly turned bright. He smiled so hard that he could hardly find his eyes, and then he started playing happily.
The world of children is so simple. Zhu Pingan couldn't help but smile.
"Boom"
While the two little ones were enjoying the candy, they suddenly heard a dull thunder in the distance. The sound came from the west, which startled the two little ones.
Zhu Ping'an also subconsciously raised his head and looked to the west.
However, the people around seemed to have gotten used to it. Someone explained: "This is where the Holy Lord was training his chamberlains in the Xiyuan inner training ground. He fired off cannons continuously for several days. Last year, Anda Khan invaded the capital and stimulated the Holy Lord. The south
The Japanese pirates are not going away. Your Majesty trains your servants to defend the capital when the capital's troops are insufficient."
Zhu Pingan remembered what Zhang Siwei had said about this when he first arrived in the capital.
However, Emperor Jiajing was really insecure when training his chamberlains. Zhu Pingan shook his head slightly. Even if these chamberlains were well trained, how could they be able to guard the capital? They could only add a little sense of security to Emperor Jiajing's heart, oh, and they could also intimidate him.
Your Majesty, it’s just a matter of training soldiers as a servant, which will bring trouble to the future.
