1974 Return to Chang'an

 "They are here to sue Mr. Xiao...hou?"

Hearing this, Xiao Han and Liu Hongji couldn't help but look at each other with strange expressions.

Although Xiao Han had long known from Yin Can that there were gangs of men in the Japanese country who were going to Chang'an to sue him.

, people arrived in Chang'an faster than themselves!

"What happened next? Is the shopkeeper okay?" The corner of his mouth twitched, Xiao Han turned his head and continued to ask. He also just remembered that these days, 80% of the people selling cigarettes in Chang'an are members of his Xiao family.

"later?"

The shopkeeper had just said this and paused deliberately, just to give it away. Now that the guest actually asked about it, he couldn't help but smile proudly: "Humph! Sir, please tell me, our dignified man in Guanzhong is in our own house again."

How could the territory be bullied by a few Japanese people? I heard that when I saw my shopkeeper accidentally suffered a loss from the Japanese, the shop assistants, neighbors next to him, and pedestrians on the road all surrounded me with cheers.

Go up!

Without saying a word, I beat up those Japanese people...tsk! If it hadn't been for the arrival of Wuhou who was patrolling the city later, those Japanese people would have been told where they were! But even so, I heard that they were also beaten to death.

Two people! Tsk tsk, if you don't resist the beating, don't be so angry. This time it's better..."

Speaking of this, although the shopkeeper sounded a little regretful in his tone, seeing his eyes shining with fascination, if he had been there at the time, he would probably have kicked him as well!

Xiao Han frowned slightly and asked again: "Marquis Wu is still here to arrest people?"

"No!" the shopkeeper laughed, and then lowered his voice and said, "I heard from others that those Wuhou had arrived a long time ago, but they just didn't come out on purpose. They waited until the Japanese were beaten to death and then came out slowly.

After chasing people away, all the people who did it ran away, leaving only one shopkeeper sitting on the ground, crying and accusing the Japanese who were robbing things and beating people in the street..."

What? If you beat someone to death, you need to file a complaint first?

Hearing this, Xiao Han couldn't help but tremble, as if he saw a very angry shopkeeper sitting on the ground, pointing at several dying Japanese men and crying loudly!

Such shameless behavior, well, it does have some of its own essence!

"Then how was this case decided?" Xiao Han didn't have time to ask, but Liu Hongji asked curiously from behind.

"This..." When the store manager heard this, he immediately showed a bitter look on his face.

He only heard about these things. How could he know more detailed things?

"It seems that they were released again because they were Japanese envoys, right? This old man doesn't know!" After tentatively telling the news from others, the shopkeeper suddenly felt a little regretful and complained.

I, who have never been able to keep my mouth shut, must have been knocked down by the question now!

"Let it go? Wouldn't it be too cheap for them!"

Liu Hongji didn't pay attention to the shopkeeper's face, and only slammed the table with regret, although he had long known that this was the most likely outcome!

After all, when the two countries were at war, they would not kill the envoys. What's more, the Japanese country did not have any substantial conflict with the Tang Dynasty for the time being. It was just a street fight and punished if the fight was lost. It was indeed unbecoming of a great country.

"The Japanese were released, where is the cigarette shopkeeper?" After a moment of silence, Xiao Han suddenly interjected.

The shopkeeper still smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Sir, this little man really doesn't know. Although Lantian is very close to Chang'an, at this time of year, there are few people traveling to and from Chang'an. Without those people, there will be less news.

A lot! A lot of people are deaf and blind now!”

Xiao Han nodded silently, then stood up, grabbed a small handful from the gold leaves that had been put away on the table, and handed it to the shopkeeper: "Go and buy us four horses, be quick!"

"...Okay! Okay!" The shopkeeper looked at the yellow, orange, and golden leaves in front of him and was stunned for a moment. He quickly realized what he was doing and grabbed it in his hand as if he were snatching it. Then he bowed and saluted, and asked the waiter to go out.

Buy a horse.

"Xiao Han, what are you doing?" Over there, watching the shopkeeper happily running out to buy horses, Liu Hongji looked up at Xiao Han in surprise and asked, weren't they supposed to rest here for a day?

After hearing this, Xiao Han sat down, poured a pot of wine into his mouth, and then wiped the corners of his mouth: "No further delay, let's go back to Chang'an first!"

Xiao Han suddenly returned to Chang'an in such a hurry, not only to see his shopkeeper, but also for the sake of those Japanese people. He was so anxious that he was actually planning to ask the emperor to send someone to look for the idiots in the Qinling Mountains!

After all, just like when he was searching for himself, the more people there are, the greater the hope! With my face as the Marquis of Sanyuan County, maybe those people will give him a little less respect, but this kind of face is definitely not as useful as a word from Xiao Lizi!

After all, the power of money is infinite. It only took a short time for the shopkeeper to lead four horses and quickly return to the tavern.

When he bought the horse, he vaguely estimated the value of these gold leaves, and those gold leaves were worth at least two hundred dollars!

As for the horses he bought, although they are not bad horses, they are not good horses. The price of twenty guan for each horse is fair! In this way, he can earn 120 guan for just one trip.

There is still a lot of money, but this is money that his tavern can't make in a year. It's strange that the shopkeeper doesn't care about it!

"Don't talk nonsense, don't talk nonsense!"

Seeing Xiao Han and others coming out of the tavern, the shopkeeper, who was happy just now, immediately started to tremble with nervousness, and the hands holding the gold leaves under his sleeves were sweating, for fear that Xiao Han would say again: "How much did it cost?"

Where’s the rest?”

Fortunately, Xiao Han was so preoccupied now that he had no time to take care of this. When he got closer and saw that the horse was useful, he immediately got on the horse and said, "Let's go!"

"Da da da……"

The crisp sound of horse hoofs gradually faded away, and the shopkeeper finally felt relieved. However, before he could finish laughing, one of his nephews quickly came over.

"Shopkeeper, is there any problem with Golden Leaf? They haven't paid for the meal yet?"

Next to him, the shop assistant saw the shopkeeper laughing so hard that he could hardly close his mouth, so he couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

"Is there something wrong with the gold leaf?" Hearing the waiter's words, the shopkeeper's laughter stopped abruptly!

Then he slapped his forehead hard, quickly took out the golden leaf, put it in his mouth and bit it hard!

It's cool and soft, and when you take it out again, a row of tooth marks are clearly visible! This is definitely real gold!

"Stop talking nonsense! Why do you have the nerve to accept meal payment after you have given me so much money? Why don't you go clear the table and see if there is another victim... Ahem, the next customer has entered the store?"
