Seeing this group of people from the East Factory and the shopkeeper of Zuixianju suddenly rushing in, the waiter was frightened. Although he was uneasy, he could only greet them with a smile.
But the bearded Dongchang stall owner kept a serious smile and nodded with a gloomy look. He flipped his wrist and showed a dental plaque.
Shake the tooth plate.
The stall owner shouted in a low voice: "We are on official business under the emperor's order, and everyone else should get out of the way!"
Finished speaking.
The stall owner took back the toothpas and with a wave of his hand, a large number of people poured into the backyard of the restaurant. This scene was so terrifying that the shopkeeper's hands and feet went numb with fear.
But he didn't dare to stop it.
I just dare to laugh.
In chaos.
The shopkeeper looked up at the private room upstairs, fully expecting those powerful Confucian scholars to come forward to uphold justice...
But the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. When the people from Dongchang came, the voices of the Confucian scholars became softer and the doors were closed.
The shopkeeper lowered his head, feeling bitter in his heart, but he couldn't help but secretly spit: "Ah... what the hell."
Those Confucian masters, all their skills are in their mouths. When they saw the murderous people in Dongchang, they didn't even dare to fart.
They are all the same stuff!
Coward!
Not long after.
Under the wide-eyed gaze of the shopkeepers, a large number of Dongchang fans came out from the backyard of the restaurant, carrying several large chicken cages, and hurriedly moved them away without even saying hello.
A real rush of things.
Seeing that all the chickens and ducks in his shop were taken away, the restaurant owner didn't dare to say anything or ask, he just laughed beside him.
The military men in Dongchang usually don't even pay for their meals, so now it doesn't matter if they just plunder a few chickens or ducks.
Save money and avoid disaster.
But something strange happened.
The gangsters moved the chicken coop and duck cage out, and the fierce Badong Factory stall owner suddenly walked over, took out a piece of broken silver from his arms, and slapped it on the table.
The Dongchang stall owner who threw away the broken silver hurriedly left, leaving the shopkeeper and the boy looking at the broken silver, messy in the wind.
The shopkeeper and the waiter looked at each other for a few times, and couldn't help but widen their eyes, with a trace of confusion appearing in their eyes.
"What does this mean?"
What's going on?
I have seen so many good-hearted military lords from Dongchang that they were oppressed, and the shopkeeper suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. How could the military lords from Dongchang pay back the things they took?
This is wrong!
The shopkeeper touched his head and watched the stall owner go away, then carefully put away the broken piece of silver and weighed it.
"Hey, there are more than two taels."
The shopkeeper put the broken silver into his sleeve and felt a little more at ease. The two taels of broken silver were enough to cover his losses.
But the shopkeeper touched his head suspiciously and murmured to himself: "Is this the sun rising in the west?"
same time.
A street intersection not far away.
Accompanied by several Dongchang generals, Shen Lie, who was wearing a seventh-grade military officer uniform, had his hands behind his back, chatting and laughing with the people around him while looking outside the gate of Zuixianju.
at this time.
His Dongchang stall owner led a group of fans and hurriedly brought several large cages of chickens and ducks over, while the chickens croaked and the dogs barked.
Shen Lie had already seen everything, but suddenly the warm smile on his face disappeared, and his expression suddenly became cold.
The chill radiating from the whole body caused the smiles on the faces of the surrounding Dongchang generals to suddenly stop, and their scalps became numb.
In silence.
The generals of Dongchang are confused. You look at me and I look at you. I don’t quite understand what’s going on with Master Shen. Why has he suddenly turned against you?
Until the stall owner came over in a hurry, saluted Shen Lie, and then whispered: "Master Shen...it's done."
This kind of thing is simply child's play for Dongchang. The matter is taken care of as soon as he walks by. Who among ordinary people in the city dares to say no?
But Shen Lie just said nothing and looked at the stall with a pair of majestic eyes.
On a hot day, under Shen Lie's cold gaze, the stall felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on it. It shivered, and it felt like it was completely cold from head to toe.
A group of Dongchang generals around did not dare to say a word, but looked at Shen Lie in astonishment, wondering what was wrong with Mr. Shen.
Didn’t you give me money? Why are you still not satisfied?
a long time.
Shen Liecai withdrew his intense gaze and shouted: "Go back and apologize to the shopkeeper... Be sincere!"
The stall owner was stunned, and then he understood why Mr. Shen was so dissatisfied. Was it because he disliked his bad attitude when he broke into Zuixianju just now?
The stall owner quickly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, ran back to Zuixianju, hugged his fists towards the stunned shopkeeper, and said in a low voice.
"I'm sorry for bothering you."
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
The shopkeeper looked at the tough military commander with a smile on his big black face.
He was stunned for a moment.
The shopkeeper hurriedly returned the favor with cupped fists: "Oh, hey, I don't dare, I don't dare, the military master said something serious."
The stall owner clasped his fists and saluted again, and then respectfully retreated from Zuixianju.
The shopkeeper was left in a mess again.
On the street.
Seeing the stall owner walking back quickly to resume his life and saluting Shen Lie again, the anger on Shen Lie's face subsided and became gentle again.
"Let's go to the next house."
All the Dongchang generals woke up as if from a dream, driving the chickens and ducks, and hurriedly followed Mr. Shen towards the next big restaurant.
While walking on the street, Shen Lie scolded him with a cold face: "You guys... are too vulgar and ignorant of propriety!"
A group of Dongchang generals could only smile and nod.
"yes."
So Shen Lie began to teach him half-truths and half-deceptions: "What does Dongchang do? It is directly subordinate to the emperor. After all, it has the face of the royal family. What is the use of showing off one's power to the common people?"
A group of Dongchang generals had no choice but to smile again and say: "Master Shen taught you a lesson."
A group of people soon arrived in front of the next restaurant. Looking at the open door and the shrinking passers-by, several of the waiters learned this lesson.
He didn't dare to be arrogant anymore, but walked into the restaurant cautiously, and showed what he thought was a warm smile to the shopkeeper.
Not to mention that the restaurant manager looked confused and his little heart was jumping around in fear.
Shen Lie was very satisfied, so he turned around and warned: "When we are doing errands for the emperor, we cannot lose the emperor's face. We have given enough money, and our attitude must be kinder... People's hearts are made of flesh. Comparing one's heart with another's, is Isn’t that true?”
The Dongchang generals all looked dull, but nodded involuntarily.
"yes."
"What Mr. Shen said is true."
So in the midst of the commotion, from the inner city to the outer city, shops were being plundered, and amidst the excitement, an army of poultry was gathering.
After walking around, facing the smiling people in Dongchang, the shopkeepers of each shop were dumbfounded and didn't know what to do for a moment.
But not wanting to hit the smiling man, all the shopkeepers had no choice but to accept the money, hand over the chickens, ducks and geese, and send these usually arrogant and domineering ancestors out of the shop with nods and bows.
He was still bowing and bowing.
This strange scene made the passersby who stopped to watch with their eyes popping out of their heads.
