"What do you guys want to eat? The wine and food in our restaurant are Shuofang's best. I guarantee that you will be satisfied." The waiter introduced them after them.
Jia Rong looked at Ma Teng and others and asked: "You can order whatever you want, I'm treating you today, hahaha..." After escaping from death, Jia Rong was in a good mood.
In front of Jia Rong, they were always just subordinates. They declined: "It's better to let... the young master make the decision."
In order not to expose his identity, everyone called Jia Rong son.
Jia Rong smiled slightly to express his understanding. Subordinates in this era would certainly not dare to overstep their authority and do anything illegal.
Jia Rong casually ordered some of the best wines and dishes in the store, and ordered a few jars of good wine. The few of them were laughing and talking about common things while waiting for the wine and dishes.
"Brother Ma, what do you think of the general at the city gate today?" Jia Rong asked as he glanced at the bustling street outside the window.
Ma Teng frowned and thought deeply for a while before replying: "It's a low-level position and stupid, so it's hard to make an evaluation."
When Jiang Yu saw Jia Rong turning his eyes towards him, he smiled bitterly and said: "You can't tell anything about your humble position. He is just a gatekeeper general. There are many such generals in the Xiliang army."
"His eyes are very special." Zhang Zhi said after holding back for a long time.
Jia Rong's eyes tightened and he said slowly: "This person is not simple. Be careful when you meet him in the future."
Although Ma Teng and Jiang Yu nodded in agreement, there was clearly disdain in his eyes.
Just as he was talking, the waiter brought the wine over.
"Gentlemen, please take your time, the food will be served later."
Jia Rong stopped the waiter who was about to leave and asked, "Do you know General Cao Xing?"
The waiter thought for a moment and then replied: "Of course I know him. He is also a regular visitor to our place. He comes every few days, but I haven't seen him for a long time."
"I wonder if he holds any position in the army?" Jia Rong asked.
"It seems to be the general guarding the city gate. I don't know the specific villain."
Jia Rong waved his hand and signaled the waiter to leave. During a time without war, guarding the city gate was the most neglected job.
After pouring the wine, several people started to drink it. Before the dishes were served, the jar of wine was already empty. Jia Rong always had a good capacity for drinking. The wine in the Han Dynasty was made from grain and had a very low alcohol content.
The sound of "thump thump thump" footsteps sounded, attracting the attention of several people.
Judging from the sound of his steps, Jia Rong was certain that this person was not the waiter just now.
Before anyone arrived, a voice came over first: "Waiter, bring me a jar of good wine first."
"Okay!" The waiter responded cheerfully.
As soon as Fang went upstairs, Cao Xing's eyes focused on Jia Rong and others. After taking a look at Jia Rong's appearance, he was surprised: "Is it you?"
Jia Rong also stood up politely and said: "General Cao."
Cao Xing's eyes suddenly tightened, he looked at Jia Rong warily and said, "Aren't you a commoner nearby? Why would you come here to drink?" As he spoke, his hand had already touched the sword at his waist.
Jia Rong laughed and said: "General Cao's words are wrong. Can't the common people come here to drink? I didn't see the plaque on the restaurant saying that the common people are not allowed to enter." Jia Rong's defense made Cao Xing's face slightly ugly.
.
"What do you think?" Jia Rong turned his attention to the waiter who was serving the dishes.
The waiter looked at Jia Rong and Cao Xing in embarrassment. One was a regular customer of the restaurant, and the other was a dinner guest. As businessmen, they were unwilling to offend either party.
Cao Xing thought for a moment, let go of his hand on his waist, and laughed and said, "This brother is right."
The waiter breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly walked out of the restaurant.
"General Cao, if you don't mind, you can come to our table to dine together." Jia Rong said with a smile.
Cao Xing paused for a moment, then responded: "Respect is worse than obeying orders." Although he was a general in the city, Cao Xing's salary was pitiful, otherwise he would not be able to come to the restaurant every few days.
Cao Xing took his seat, and the cheerful atmosphere just now suddenly became tense. He was a general in Shuofang County, and Jia Rong's current identity was not easy to be exposed. If anyone knew about it, it would inevitably lead to trouble.
"Do you know the name of this brother?" Until now, Cao Xing would be really stupid if he still treated Jia Rong as an ordinary citizen.
Jia Rong smiled and said: "The word is just a code name. So what if you know it, and so what if you don't know it. It's better to meet by chance than to meet each other. Come, let's drink this cup together."
"It's better to meet by chance than to have a drink." Xing held up the wine and made an inviting gesture to several people, and drank it all in one gulp.
The folk customs in the border counties are bold and generous, and they also pay attention to having fun when drinking. Even the wine cups here are much larger than those in the inner counties.
"General, it's refreshing!" Rong praised, picking up the wine cup and pouring it into his mouth.
Jiang Yu and the others followed Jia Rong and picked up the wine cup. Jia Rong put down the wine cup. They also put it down and waited quietly for Jia Rong to speak. The whole process was surprisingly consistent without anyone supervising it, which made Cao Xing feel that Jia Rong's identity was unknown.
generally.
"We are definitely not ordinary people. Tell me, who are we?" After the man put down his wine cup, Cao Xing asked again.
Jia Rong smiled and said, "General, really want to know?"
"As a general guarding the city gate, you need to be responsible for the soldiers and people in the city." Xing said with a straight face.
Jia Rong put away the smile on his face and said slowly: "General, why should you deceive yourself? There are no enemy troops approaching now. It's okay not to guard the city gate. If you don't change your name, please do not change your surname, Jia Rong."
"Jia Rong..." Cao Xing kept repeating Jia Rong's name, as if he was very familiar with it, as if he had never heard of it before, and he couldn't explain it for a while.
Looking at Jia Rong with a smile on his face, Cao Xing suddenly slapped his head and exclaimed: "Could it be Jia Rong and Jia Zhiyuan who burned the Yellow Turban and regained Jincheng?"
Jia Rong nodded slightly and said: "A little prestige is nothing."
Cao Xing stood up and clasped his fists respectfully and said, "I don't know if the former is General Jia, so I ask the general to forgive me for any offence."
Jia Rong looked at Cao Xing in confusion. In any case, he was just the governor of Jincheng and belonged to Liangzhou. He had nothing to do with Bingzhou. Why was Cao Xing so excited after hearing what he said.
"The general is a role model for our generation. He burned the Yellow Turban and regained Jincheng. Every time he hears about the deeds of the general, it makes people yearn for it." Mentioning Jia Rong's achievements, Cao Xing's face showed a hint of drunken red, and his eyes changed when he looked at Jia Rong.
More scorching.
Under the publicity of the aristocratic family, Jia Rong became a well-known figure and one of the famous generals of the Han Dynasty. It would be false if Cao Xing was not excited when he first saw a celebrity like Jia Rong. Not only Cao Xing, but also any young general who saw him
Going to Jia Rong will not be any better than Cao Xing.
"General Cao, there is no need to be so polite. Now I am just an ordinary citizen." Jia Rong said lightly, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.
Cao Xing also woke up from the initial surprise, and felt regretful when he thought that Jia Rong was dismissed from office by the Han Emperor.
Jia Rong said with a smile: "There are ten chances in life that you will not be satisfied as you wish, so why should you care too much about these external things?"
Cao Xing laughed heartily and said, "General Jia's words are really wonderful. I am lucky to know the general." After saying this, Cao Xing poured a full cup of wine into his mouth, his face was pale because he drank too hastily.
Some are red.
Wine is indeed a good thing. After a few glasses of wine, everyone suddenly became more talkative and chatted all over the world. During this period, Cao Xing mentioned his admiration for Jia Rong many times.
Jia Rong smiled and said, "I wonder what Brother Cao's plans are in the future?" From what he just said, Jia Rong understood that Cao Xing was not a peaceful person and had an unusual passion for fame and power.
It was said in the Three Kingdoms that Cao Xing's archery skills were very high, otherwise Xiahou Dun would not have been hit in the eye by his arrow.
Cao Xing put down the chopsticks in his hand, his expression changed for a long time, and then he smiled and said: "What other plans can I have? Now I can be regarded as a general guarding the city gate. I believe I will be promoted soon, and then I can show my talents and establish my reputation."
Jia Rong glanced at Cao Xing in surprise and said with relief: "Then Jia is here to wish Brother Cao a victory."
"If Brother Cao has any difficulties in the future, just come to Jia and try his best to help." Jia Rong picked up the wine cup and gestured to Cao Xing, then raised his head and poured it into his belly. The wine in Bianjun was just like the weather in Bianjun.
People can't help but admire the spiciness of the wine.
"Thank you, General Jia!" Cao Xing bowed, and also raised his wine cup to salute Jia Rong.
