Xifeng City looks particularly cold in the early morning.
In order to maintain a false sense of peace, there were no refugees or beggars in the city, and they were all arranged outside the city.
Of course this is not a bad thing.
At least there is a shack outside the city.
And as a beggar in the city, you can only sleep on the streets.
This resulted in Xifeng City being deserted every morning.
Occasionally, you can see the night incense workers who are responsible for hauling night incense on their bullock carts heading out of the city, and you can also see Tiao Lang with a broom cleaning the streets.
After Ye Xiaochuan left the study apartment, he changed his appearance again. He was like a down-and-out scholar, walking alone on the street.
He looked at the prosperous city in front of him that Cangyun Sect worked hard to maintain, and there were only two words in his eyes.
false.
But what can he do?
If he were Yu Jizi, he would probably do the same thing.
Astronomical amounts of gold, silver and food are spent every year to maintain not only the illusion of a city, but also the will of the people in the entire world.
As long as the will is not broken, then everything is worth it.
The distance between Wu Lai Shu Apartment and Yun Hai Tower was not very far. Not long after, Ye Xiaochuan came to the vicinity of Yun Hai Tower.
At this moment, there were finally more and more people on the street.
The city gate was opened, and many people could be seen entering the city, some setting up stalls in the street.
Ye Xiaochuan likes this kind of secular fireworks atmosphere very much.
It was just around three o'clock in the morning, so Xiaoqi and the others probably hadn't gotten up yet because they were snoozing.
So, Ye Xiaochuan walked to a breakfast stall. Now due to the shortage of supplies and soaring prices, street breakfast stalls like this provide very limited food. Basically, they are steamed buns, vegetarian buns, sesame seed pancakes, and even fried dough sticks.
, meat buns, soy milk, tofu curd, etc.
It’s rare to find breakfasts all over the street.
Ye Xiaochuan ordered two drawers of steamed buns and a bowl of butter tea.
While eating, he was planning in his mind how to fight Yujizi.
It has been confirmed that Yun Qiyou is in the hands of Yu Jizi.
But if you want to rescue Yun Qiyou from Yu Jizi, you have to think carefully.
Ye Xiaochuan was not afraid of Yu Jizi, but worried about the impact that Yu Jizi would have on the world once his reputation was ruined.
Over the years, Yu Jizi has used various public opinions to shape himself into a savior and old god who can save the world.
And the vast majority of foolish men and women in the world also firmly believe this.
Once something goes wrong with the jade machine, the impact will be huge.
It is very likely to make the already demoralized world even worse.
It's not easy to find a way to get the best of both worlds.
While Ye Xiaochuan was thinking, three dirty people in civilian clothes came near the breakfast stall.
The three people, two men and one woman, looked very hungry and were attracted by the smell of the steamed buns.
Looking at the steamed buns on the steamer, the eyes of the three of them were almost tearing up.
One of the girls said: "Shopkeeper, how do you sell these buns?"
"Twenty taels of silver per drawer."
Two taels of silver, what a terrifying figure. Two thousand cash was the daily turnover of this breakfast shop, but now it can only buy one drawer of steamed buns.
The girl glanced at the two men behind her, and then said: "Where is this Wowotou..."
"One tael and five pieces of silver."
"Okay, five wowotou."
Then the three of them sat on a table in front of Ye Xiaochuan and started pouring water.
Ye Xiaochuan glanced at the three people, and then continued to eat steamed buns. He didn't care, just thinking that these three people were ordinary refugees.
But the moment he lowered his head, Ye Xiaochuan's eyes flashed, and he looked up at the three of them again.
The three of them looked very hungry. Before the steamed buns were served, each of them had already drank two bowls of free boiled water.
They didn't communicate in any language and just drank water by themselves.
When the Wowotou arrived, the two men ate two each, while the girl only ate one.
The wowotou was not big and was eaten up quickly, but the three of them did not seem to be full.
One of the men said: "Yunyao, I'm not full. Why don't I buy some more steamed buns?"
The girl named Yunyao whispered: "We have no money."
The man looked a little unhappy.
The man who had been silent all this time, although he was dirty, had an extraordinary bearing and exuded an air of aloofness.
He said calmly: "Two Wowotou are enough for us to survive for two days. Do you still want to eat enough?"
Ye Xiaochuan looked at the aloof man with interest.
Then call the shopkeeper over.
"Shopkeeper, give three of them two steamed buns each."
The shopkeeper was stunned.
The next moment, Ye Xiaochuan threw an ingot of twenty taels of gold on the table.
The shopkeeper's eyes shone brightly and he said, "Here we go."
The three of them also heard Ye Xiaochuan's words and looked over together, but their eyes were full of vigilance.
The aloof man said: "It seems that we don't know this brother."
Ye Xiaochuan smiled and said: "It's fate that we meet by chance. The three of you are very generous. I must be a little short of money recently. What's the harm in treating the three of you to a feast?"
The three of them looked at each other.
The aloof man wanted to refuse, but at this moment the shopkeeper had already put the buns on the table.
The rich fragrance made the three of them swallow their saliva.
The aloof man did not speak, as if he was maintaining his final stubbornness.
The girl stood up and said, "Thank you sir, we will definitely repay you."
Ye Xiaochuan smiled and waved.
The three of them started to eat.
However, their eating appearance is not ugly, but they chew slowly and seem to be very well-educated.
After eating two drawers of steamed buns per person, the shopkeeper gave me two more bowls of butter tea.
Ye Xiaochuan just watched quietly from the side, with a strange expression.
After the three of them had eaten and drank enough, they came to Ye Xiaochuan together.
The aloof man said: "Thank you for your generous hospitality, brother, and please leave your name. I will let you know in the future that this meal is well worth the treat."
Ye Xiaochuan shook his head and said: "No need, I didn't treat you to food just for you to repay me."
After saying that, Ye Xiaochuan stood up and walked towards Yunhai Tower not far away.
As soon as he arrived downstairs, he saw Qin's concubine waving to him on the second floor.
He went straight to the second floor.
At this moment, there are still only Qin Guichen and others on the second floor, as well as the Thirteen Shas of Huangquan, and no other diners.
It can be seen that everyone knows the identities of the Thirteen Evils of Underworld, and no one dares to approach these thirteen people.
Yunhailou prepared a very rich breakfast for these people.
Ye Xiaochuan suddenly felt that he was not full yet and could still eat a dozen more buns.
He turned to Huang Quan and others who stood up to greet him and said, "Stop eating, I have something to tell you."
Huang Quan and others immediately showed happy expressions.
Huang Quan said: "Master, what do you want us to do?" Ye Xiaochuan pointed to the south of the street and said: "There are three people over there, two men and one woman... Control them and send them to Wu Lai's residence in Nancheng.
Just say that I sent it there and let Wei Sanliu and Miss Xiao Qiao take good care of it.
Three people.”
Huang Quan and the other thirteen people immediately went downstairs.
"Kidnapping? Chef Ye, why are you doing such a thing now? I despise you!"
Xiaoqi's mouth was full of food and she showed contempt for Ye Xiaochuan.
Ye Xiaochuan smiled and said: "Xiao Qi, you will thank me."
"Thank you? What do you mean? You kidnapped three innocent passers-by, why should I thank you?" "You will understand soon." Ye Xiaochuan smiled mysteriously.
