Chapter Thirty-Fourth Street Walk (7)

"Brother, how much did that scene cost last night?"

Early the next morning, when there was a slight movement outside, Qin Bao stood up and alerted Zhang Xing, who was lying down with him. As soon as Zhang Xing came up, he alerted the door again. Someone immediately asked if he wanted something early, and then brought breakfast.

Pickles, porridge, and a pot of warm tea... Zhang Xing has always been curious, so he couldn't help but ask a few more questions when he came to eat shirtless.

"Officials don't dare not answer questions. My little family knows that a banquet for thirty people costs sixty guan. There are three levels of banquets. Last night was the highest one, costing 30 guan.

Counting the drinks, I don’t know the details, but I think it costs about thirty guan, and the dance music is my own, which only costs 10 guan... As for last night’s rest and today’s morning tea, they are all included.” Young man.

I was used to the scene, so I immediately stopped and waited for a while, and spoke politely and clearly.

"I know, thank you for your hard work." Zhang Xing understood and nodded slightly.

"I don't dare to say it's hard work." When the boy heard this, his tone was better and he also withdrew.

"If you think about it this way, wouldn't it cost you enough to buy two fine horses last night?" As soon as the people left, Qin Bao, who was sitting over shirtless, couldn't help but start making calculations. "As Xiao Lin knows, after one year,

Can you earn 600 horses?"

"It would be great if there could be one or two of these thirty events every ten days. Otherwise, do you want Xiao Lin to know that he will die from exhaustion?"

Zhang Xing, who was drinking porridge, suppressed the urge to complain about the opponent's measurement units and reluctantly explained while holding the porridge and stepping on a stool.

"As for these two horses, not everyone knows about them... First of all, we have to throw away the cost of the banquet for the two horse legs; An Erniang has to pay for the rent here, and it is estimated that there are also two horse legs; the remaining four legs

, the whole yard is also divided together, from top to bottom, not only the people floating in front of us, but also the cooks, security guards, cleaners... I think Xiao Lin knows that he can get a half horse with its legs upward, twenty strings."

"Xiao Lin knows how dangerous it is. He can earn one and a half horse legs in one night... It's still a lot, but it doesn't sound so scary." Qin Bao nodded repeatedly, but then shook his head. "It's just that Erniang An is not a thing, just

Just because you have a house, you have to take away two horse legs for free!"

"what are you thinking?"

Zhang Xing was completely speechless, but he drank a whole bowl of porridge in one go and then continued to give instructions.

"Do you think Erniang An can take away two horse legs and stuff them into her own stable? She also wants to share them, but she wants to share them outside... Normal taxes are one thing, the local street tigers, gangs

Boss, I'm afraid they all have to share the benefits. Even the Qingdi Temple in the middle of the square probably has to pay filial piety every day... But on the other hand, An Erniang is probably a capable person, and everyone knows that Lin and Xiaolin are also some top-notch people.

People with connections are not too oppressed. The less privileged bosses in this shop all know that they have probably been eaten up by these local street tigers and gang boss Dalian people with money and sold their bodies across the street.

Not to mention the girl."

Qin Bao's face turned pale and blue for a while. He said nothing for a long time and did not touch the porridge.

Having said this, Zhang Xing wiped his mouth early and returned to the couch to start arranging his clothes. Seeing this, he still did not change his political habit and continued to talk:

"After all, do you, Qin Erlang, think that all girls from good families voluntarily enter this Wenwenfang, and they aspire to be famous since they were young? Or do you think that all the women in this world are as powerful as our patrol inspector, who speaks out in a loud voice?

, Sima Erlong also has to retreat?"

"Then I won't come to Wenwenfang anymore!"

The shirtless Qin Bao didn't even drink a mouthful of porridge.

"No." Zhang Xing hurriedly tried to persuade him while putting on his socks. "The Biography of the Heroine Li Yue quoted a sentence from Qingdi's "Tai Xuan Jing", which is quite interesting... It says that everything must have a beginning...

...That is to say, everything must be investigated to the root cause. Instead of thinking about quitting Wenwenfang, it is better to enforce the law impartially when doing justice, so that there will be less cases of selling children and wooing women in the world."

Qin Bao nodded heavily, lowered his head and drank two mouthfuls of porridge, then stood up to get dressed. It seemed that he had some ideas after all.

However, when he stood up, he seemed to realize something, and he solemnly bowed his hand to Zhang Xing, who was already dressed: "Thank you, third brother, for your teaching."

Zhang Xingben realized that he was talking too much, and then he realized that it was him who was the third brother, so he quickly waved his hand: "It's all nonsense. You can stand upright and have an idea. Don't take it too seriously."

Qin Bao's face was slightly red, he nodded, and went to put on his clothes. After a while, he dressed neatly and followed Zhang Xing to the side courtyard where the sky was just bright. However, he was shocked to find that except for some servant activities, there were so many people in the same row last night.

, only two of them got up early. But since they got up, it was hard to go back to sleep, so they held each other's legs and feet and stretched their muscles a little.

At this scene, Qin Bao couldn't hold back again: "Brother Zhang..."

"you say."

"You are not an ordinary vanguard, are you?"

"Why do you ask?" Zhang Xing was not too surprised. This is just the way he is. He didn't think much about it when he went surfing last night, but now he regrets it.

"Otherwise, how could Third Brother know so much?" Qin Bao, who was helping to press his legs, asked seriously. "I see you in front of us now, just like I was in front of my friends in the village that day...I'm not bragging, but

I really feel that Third Brother is someone who has something to say."

"What statement?" Zhang Xing continued to ask.

"Does Third Brother have an undisclosed background?" Qin Bao lowered his voice and asked sincerely. "It's like my family consists of several generations of officials from the Eastern Qi Dynasty. You have a more powerful background and it's even harder to tell."

"No." Zhang Xing became confused after hearing this. "Why do you ask?"

"Look at our inspection, and Sima Erlong, who I heard about yesterday." Qin Bao sighed. "And our Zhongcheng... Aren't these powerful people all noble?"

Zhang Xing was speechless when he heard this: "What are you talking about? You are so confused... I will only give you one example, and you will know that you are wrong more than anything."

Qin Bao immediately pricked up his ears.

"Did you tell me that there is a cattle supervisor from Fuyang in Beiya? He is also a noble breed?" Zhang Xing looked at the other party jokingly.

Qin Bao immediately hit his forehead with his hand.

"Of course it is easy for a noble family to produce experts and well-educated people. That is because they are born with no worries about food and clothing, so they can practice and study without worries."

Seeing this, Zhang Xing took the opportunity to stand up and continued to sneer and ridicule, basically showing a cynical attitude.

"When you encounter someone who doesn't understand, you can find a famous teacher to help you. With your overwhelming power, you don't have to be wronged like others. If you have endless money, you don't have to worry about a few pennies like others.

Depressed and unhappy... The simplest example is that if a farmer has more than ten acres of land and gives birth to a son on the 12th day of the twelfth year, he can build a foundation in a hundred days, but he can also work in the fields. He will spend a hundred days in vain to support him, and he will have to spend a hundred days every day in the future.

After practicing Wu Chongmai until you are in your twenties and thirties, 90% of the people have given up the idea of ​​practicing. As for the children of wealthy families, almost everyone takes foundation building as a matter of course... This example is not what you told me that day.

? How come you have reached a higher level, and for the same reason, you become demented again? "

"Yes." Qin Bao was completely relieved. "I've thought too much. The children of those high-ranking families have returned from strength to strength, but we shouldn't belittle ourselves."

Zhang Xing nodded, and then poured some more chicken soup to facilitate the growth of seedlings.

However, at this time, under the dark and midwinter morning light, a man suddenly walked over without embarrassment and held his arms to see the two of them beating their muscles, forcing Zhang Xing and Qin Bao to shut up.

.

"Are you that Zhang Sanlang?" After looking at it for a long time, the man came to ask.

"It's me, brother, what do you call me? What's the matter?" Zhang Xing saw the other party's posture a long time ago, and became wary, so he immediately retreated.

"It's nothing. I'm from Fusi Fulongwei in Taixi Town, Jing'an. My name is Wang Zhen. I heard my Sima Changjian shouting about Zhang Sanlang, Wenhua Tiancheng last night, so I came here to have a look... I didn't expect that he was just a man of the right kind.

The cultivation level of the body was also shocked." The man hugged and sneered.

Zhang Xing and Qin Bao looked at each other, obviously feeling that this man was boring and more childish than Li Qingchen.

After a long while, Zhang Xing nodded: "That's right, only five of the main meridians are connected, which makes Brother Wang laugh."

Seeing that these two people were not ashamed, Wang Zhen also felt bored, but he was unwilling to leave just now. He felt shy for a long time, suddenly remembered something, and finally asked again with a smile:

"Did Zhang Sanlang just say that it's not a big deal if you are rich? Doesn't this mean you look down on my Sima Changjian?"

This is stirring up trouble.

Qin Bao immediately frowned and wanted to defend himself.

Zhang Xing was the only one who felt bored, but his reaction was particularly straightforward. He turned around and shouted loudly towards the main building behind him:

"Inspection! Sima Erlang's Fulong Guards came to stir up trouble! There is a man named Wang Zhen who said that your wine is not good and no one wants twenty-five or six!"

As soon as he said this, all the lights in the courtyard from the guest room to other places in the building were turned on almost instantly, and the noises and curses did not stop at all.

The Fulongwei named Wang Zhen was stunned for a moment. He didn't even dare to go back to the house and ran straight into the workshop.

Wang Zhen ran away, but he couldn't outrun the Taoist priests and the Supreme Statue. Dozens of patrolling cavalrymen and seven or eight Fulong Guards were awakened and started making noise in the courtyard, which then developed into a group fight.

In fact, if they really fight and use their true energy, the obviously more elite people like Fulongwei will win by half, but isn't it true that Bai Xunjian and Sima Changjian are both here? And it's getting daylight, and Bai Xunjian is getting better.

Inspector also drank porridge at the window on the third floor and watched the battle in person with a joking expression on his face.

What's even worse is that Fulongwei's Wang Zhen knew he was wrong and ran away. Sima Erlang couldn't find anyone to lay his head on even if he wanted to put things to rest.

In the end, it was the masters of Fulongwei who escaped in embarrassment.

A farce, not worth mentioning.

However, the weather that day was sultry and the clouds were low. Everyone had sweated in the morning and was feeling bored, so they threw the red ropes on the spot and dispersed, agreeing to go back and change clothes before heading to the island to wait for orders.

Zhang Xingle saw this kind of pretentiousness, so he went back to Chengfufang with Qin Bao, took the other party to look at the courtyard carefully, and agreed to share the rent in the branch. Then he put on his brocade clothes, stepped on the embroidered scimitar, and didn't panic.

Don't rush to the island.

When they arrived on the island, dark clouds came over the city, and it immediately started to rain again. It was originally said that there was some kind of mission to Ouchi, but it was canceled immediately, and everyone continued to look at the sky and fish for fish.

However, at this time, on his first day of employment, Zhang Xing had already noticed that the Jinyi Patrol was on the higher end compared to the Jingjiehu... They were all fishing, and the Jingjiehu people only talked about street gossip in the wine shop.

Discussing market prices and talking about ways to get rich; while Jin Yi is patrolling here, it turns out that so and so has been promoted somewhere, a certain family has married somewhere, and even the lowest gossip can involve the palace and the ministers.

From morning to afternoon, it was another pleasant day. Zhang Xing was also full of encouragement. He just regretted that he forgot to bring a book to read. Otherwise, wouldn't it be wonderful to listen to political gossip and read historical novels?

The rain was pouring, and the copper bowl for cleaning the streets finally sounded weakly. Everyone began to disperse. Zhang Xing only wanted to bring books with him from tomorrow... However, when the knights in brocade were about to leave the island, suddenly a knight braved the rain to go to the island.

Come.

When they came to the bridge, the horse slipped under its feet and rolled off the horse. It was in a miserable state, but it turned out to be the clothes of the Criminal Department.

Many of the people who were originally going to respond just looked on with cold eyes, and no one paid attention to it.

But the next moment, the knight of the Ministry of Justice, whose leg was obviously injured, shouted something in the mud that made everyone's scalp numb: "The jail of the Ministry of Justice has been robbed! Hundreds of fugitives have escaped! My servant is looking for me.

Zhongcheng sends troops! Take me there quickly!"

So fast? Zhang Xing couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart.

ps: Happy Christmas Eve everyone
