Chapter 166: Taunt

"I couldn't help myself when I came to Youzhou, so I didn't say anything."

Niu Xiaosheng recalled his experiences during this period and felt that Youzhou was like a whirlpool. Once he stepped in, it would not be easy to leave if he wanted to get out again.

"Your Excellency, you have become the commander-in-chief at such a young age. You will definitely have a bright future. I hope you will give me more support in the future. Wang Yan is willing to be driven by you."

Taking advantage of the perfect opportunity for the two of them to be alone, Wang Yan flattered him while not forgetting to be loyal to Niu Xiaosheng.

Niu Xiaosheng laughed, "You can't say for sure, maybe I won't be the general manager tomorrow."

"Master General Banner is really good at joking."

Wang Yan's eyes were wide open, full of resentment, and she was secretly discouraged. It turns out that being able to become the commander-in-chief is not that simple. This guy looks young and looks harmless, but in fact he is just a rabbit.

Lord of the eagle! This attitude of neither agreeing nor rejecting is the most attractive.

The two of them walked for a while, and the surrounding buildings gradually became higher. The flow of people on the street suddenly became denser, and the people passing by were all well-dressed men.

In the high-rise buildings on both sides, you can see some women dressed coolly and half-dressed, waving their silk scarves at the passers-by below, Wu Nong's soft words could be heard all the time.

What a nice place!

Niu Xiaosheng secretly praised in his heart, constantly expanding his perception and imprinting the beautiful scenery on both sides into his mind.

Wang Yan next to her looked at the general flag next to her from time to time, and found that after he entered the place, he had been looking at him intently, as if he had no interest in the surrounding affairs.

This made her evaluation of Niu Xiaosheng rise a lot.

This street is the destined gold-selling den in Youzhou City. Any man who enters here, regardless of his origin, will come here a second time as long as he has been here once.

Since she was not deceived by beauty and had no power, the only way left was money. Wang Yan showed a trace of reluctance in her eyes, which finally turned into determination.

At this time, Lu You and the others had arrived at Mingyue Tower first.

When the shopkeeper inside saw the three of them, he quickly came out and said with a smile on his face: "Master Lu is here. The private room is ready. It is on the second floor. Please come with me."

This street is not all a place of romance. Mingyue Tower is a serious restaurant that only provides meals and accommodation.

But opposite Mingyue Tower is the famous Jiaofangsi. Because of this, Mingyue Tower's business has always been very good, and there is an endless stream of guests coming here to eat or stay here every day.

The private room on the second floor is right opposite the gate of Jiaofangsi. Sitting inside, you can have a panoramic view of the street and Jiaofangsi below.

"Just choose this All-Soul Banquet and let the kitchen prepare it quickly."

Lu You directly ordered Mingyuelou's signature All Soul Banquet, which cost 800 taels of silver.

"Lu You, you can't afford this money alone."

Cheng Kun suddenly said.

"What? You want to share it with me?"

Lu You was a little surprised that Cheng Kun, who had always been stingy, suddenly became generous.

"Just share it, but it needs to be divided among five people. Since it's the general banquet for everyone, naturally you can't be the only one to pay."

Cheng Kun thought to Xiao Jiujiu that if the eight hundred taels were divided among five people, each person would be worth 160 taels. Although it was not a big sum of money for them, it was different for some people.

He had heard that Liu Jun had pawned almost all the valuable things at home in order to break through to the Three Realms. It was the middle of the month and it was not time to pay his salary, let alone 160 taels, maybe not even 16 taels.

It can definitely be taken out.

After a while, Liu Jun, led by a waiter, walked into the private room.

Cheng Kun's eyes lit up and he said to Liu Jun: "I just ordered a full-spirit banquet, which cost eight hundred taels. Remember to pay."

Sure enough, Liu Jun's expression froze when he heard this.

Just as Cheng Kun thought, he was really short of money now, with less than ten taels of silver left in his hand. He had to hand over the 160 taels of silver anyway, but he had to give it away, so he had to find someone to borrow it.

When Liu Jun thought of borrowing money, he immediately thought of Wang Yan. He instinctively looked up and saw that the other party had not come yet, so he said in a low voice: "I didn't bring that much money with me when I went out. I'll hand it over when I get back to the office tomorrow."

"

"Tsk tsk, you're such an interesting person. You all know that we are hosting a banquet for the General Banner tonight, but you don't bring any money. Are you planning to eat for free? Or are you treating yourself as the General Banner?"

Of course Cheng Kun would not miss this opportunity to ridicule.

"I told you, I'll hand it in tomorrow."

Liu Jun said expressionlessly, then closed his eyes to rest and stopped talking to Cheng Kun.

Cheng Kun looked proud and was about to continue taunting Liu Jun when Qiu Qianqian on the side suddenly said: "Here we come."

After hearing this, the three of them turned and looked towards the street below, and immediately saw Wang Yan and Niu Xiaosheng coming hand in hand.

Seeing this scene, except for Qiu Qianqian, the expressions of the other three people changed slightly.

Especially Cheng Kun, his good mood just now disappeared, and he looked at Liu Jun with gloomy eyes. No wonder this bastard came alone, and he still hid his feelings!

"I've met Lord General Banner!"

When Niu Xiaosheng walked into the private room, the dull atmosphere inside suddenly disappeared, and everyone smiled and saluted.

"Okay, everyone, sit down."

Lu You took a step forward and said with a smile: "The commander-in-chief hasn't sat down yet, how can your subordinates sit down first? Sir, please take a seat."

With that said, Niu Xiaosheng was led to sit next to Qiu Qianqian, and then Lu You sat down on the other side.

"I'll go downstairs and urge the shopkeeper to serve the food."

Cheng Xu said and walked out quickly.

When he came back, he was followed by two women holding musical instruments.

"Haha, just eating is too monotonous, so I went to the opposite side and invited two happy girls to come over to join in the fun. I don't think Mr. General Ban will mind."

Cheng Xu said with a smile.

Niu Xiaosheng glanced at the two women and nodded.

Only Liu Jun's face turned dark. Opposite was the Jiaofang Division. The girls there were all ridiculously expensive. Even Le Ji couldn't be hired without a hundred taels of silver. Cheng Xu was clearly disgusting with himself.

Thinking of this, he touched Wang Yan next to him with his elbow, then stretched out three fingers under the table and rubbed it a few times.

Wang Yan saw this and nodded slightly.

The two have worked together for many years, so she naturally knew what Liu Jun wanted to express. While everyone else's attention was on Niu Xiaosheng, she took out two silver notes from the purse at her waist and handed them to Liu Jun.

Amidst a burst of beautiful music, dishes with delicious colors and aromas were served.

As the signature of Mingyue Tower, the All-Soul Banquet is quite famous. Not only are the ingredients all at the level of exotic beasts, but the chef who cooks them is also a master of pharmacology and can maximize the effects of the ingredients.

The wine has passed three rounds, and the food has passed the five flavors.

Lu You winked at Qiu Qianqian.

Qiu Qianqian felt hot, picked up the wine glass, and said to Niu Xiaosheng beside him: "Sir, drinking like this is meaningless. Why don't we play a game."
