Chapter 51 The Slave Owner

Yu Sheng gave a thumbs up to Ye Zigao, "So this is where the corpse collection came from. I finally saw the legendary beast."

Ye Zigao didn't take it seriously and wiped his hair on his forehead, "They should be honored to be picked up by me."

Yu Sheng stopped and asked Ye Zigao, "What should I do if I accidentally pick up a man?"

Ye Zigao was startled, "This is a problem." He also thought seriously, "Normally men wouldn't commit themselves to each other, right?"

"Hard to say." Yu Sheng shook his head.

They walked around to the door of the inn, and Yu Sheng asked Ye Zigao to go back to the inn and bring out the fish basin, and he just released it.

It happened that Jin Yiwei Fu Nan walked from the opposite side to the inn with a knife. He looked at Ye Zigao's figure and said, "This is your new recruit. Who beat him like this?"

"Huang Xian'er in the tea shed under the locust tree." Yu Sheng said.

"That Five Money Celestial Master," Fu Nan suddenly realized, "is this kid still alive? He has a long life."

"Monsters like fresh things. There is a pig here, so of course it survives." Yu Sheng sighed, "This shows how important a fast and delicious mount is."

"Donkey meat isn't bad to eat either." Fu Nan said casually.

"Bold!" Yu Sheng pointed at the sword bag on the archway and said proudly: "I must have caught you, you actually want to eat the city lord's mount."

"No, no, no." Fu Nan waved his hands hurriedly. He was about to explain when he was suddenly interrupted by two dog-like meows coming from the inn.

They looked back and saw Ye Zigong running out with a fish basin, followed by the two brothers, Sheriff Black Cat.

"Shopkeeper, do you have a cat or a dog? Why are you still biting people?" Ye Zi said.

Yu Sheng kicked Sheriff Black Cat back with a kick and said, "The dogs are getting rid of the mice, why don't Sheriff Black Cat be allowed to look after the house?"

Black cat Sheriff? This name is really weird. Ye Zigao looked back at the two cats staring at him, "Why is the tabby cat called Sheriff?"

“Who told you that the tabby cat is called Sheriff?” Yu Sheng said, “It’s called Black Cat.”

"The black cat?"

"Call the Sheriff."

"What weird name do you have?" Ye Zigao looked at Yu Sheng with a strange look.

"If a black cat is called a black cat, why not call it by its name?" Yu Sheng responded with the same contemptuous look.

Ye Zigao couldn't argue with him, so he looked at Fu Nan, expecting him to say something fair. Unexpectedly, Fu Nan nodded and said, "That's right."

Ye Zigao suddenly worried that staying in the town for a few days would turn Ying Ming's head into a fool.

They bid farewell to wealth and hardship, passed the stone bridge, and headed south along the avenue.

The sun was warm, the waterwheel stopped turning, and a group of little ducks were stirring water under the waterwheel.

I don’t know where the little white fox has gone, but it must be nearby. It guards these poultry closely, as if they have become its prey.

The buffalo slowed down, and Ye Zigao asked out of curiosity: "Shopkeeper, why did you release the fish? How good is it if it is braised in braise?"

"You are stupid, but you still don't admit it." Yu Sheng pulled the cow rope, walked slowly, and said leisurely: "Let me tell you a story."

Ye Zigao looked at Yu Sheng, wondering why this boy had so many stories, but he still pricked up his ears without saying a word.

"It is said that a long time ago, a little shepherd boy accidentally saved a white snake..." Yu Sheng narrated the story of "The Legend of the White Snake".

The story of a thousand-year-old snake demon who transformed into a peerless beauty to repay a favor to a scholar and fell in love with each other while sheltering from the rain in a boat on the lake really amazed Ye Zigao.

He was fascinated by what he heard, and smiled as Yu Sheng was enigmatic, "Now do you know why I released this golden carp?"

"You mean..." Ye Zigao looked at the fish in the basin, which looked extraordinary, and couldn't help but admire him: "The shopkeeper is so tall."

"Sister Gao, it's just a rule set by the old man. You really think that I am a pervert like you." Yu Sheng changed his tone and looked at Mr. Ye with disdain.

Ye Zigao was still hesitant, and when he waited by the lake, he volunteered to help Yu Sheng free his life.

The rest of his life will not stop him.

When Ye Zigao held the golden carp in his hands, the golden carp immediately started struggling, its tail swung in the basin, splashing water all over Ye Zigao.

"Pa", Ye Zigao let go, and the golden carp fell into the fish basin again.

It swam its tail happily and swam a few laps, as if laughing at the height of the leaves.

Ye Zigao wiped his face, "This is too much!"

"You're so stupid." Yu Sheng pushed him away and grabbed the fish with one hand.

Strangely enough, when the golden carp swimming in the basin was touched by Yu Sheng's hand, it immediately calmed down and allowed him to catch it.

The golden carp in his hand was motionless, as if dead, but when Yu Sheng put it in the lake, it immediately became alive.

It splashed water and hit Yu Sheng's palm. He turned around and touched his finger with his lips before slowly sinking to the bottom of the water.

Ye Zigao looked at Yu Sheng in surprise, deeply feeling that the innkeeper was hiding something secretly, "Master, there is a little fox in the inn, could it be..."

He stepped forward and said, "Shopkeeper, how did you do it?"

I looked up at the sky forty-five degrees for the rest of my life, and saw traces of Jingwei flying by in the sky, and said lightly: "Want to know?"

Ye Zigao nodded.

A gust of wind blew, and Yu Sheng closed his eyes, feeling the fragrance of the leaves in the distant mountains, and listening to the moans of the blooming flowers.

After a long time, Yu Sheng opened his eyes. Under Ye Zi's expectant gaze, he slowly said, "Actually, I want to know too."

The fooled Ye Zigao greeted Yu Sheng and raised his middle finger to him.

In Yangzhou City, which is half a day's walk away, there is a good show going on right now because of Yu Sheng.

Xunweizhai is the largest restaurant in Yangzhou City. Its owner is neither the lord of Yangzhou City nor the four major families, but a slave owner.

This slave owner is the largest slave owner in Yangzhou City and comes from Fuyu Mountain.

The main reason why he was able to gain a foothold in Yangzhou City was that he sold slaves to Yangzhou City and would never sell the people of Yangzhou City as slaves.

However, everyone understood that this was just a temporary measure to frighten the city lord's majesty.

Because a steady stream of slaves were transported to Yangzhou City, Xunweizhai became a well-known gold-selling cave.

The red and pink skull can be enjoyed by ordinary women, not to mention ordinary women, even those who swim in the water, fly in the sky, and turn into banshees from monsters running on the mountains.

Not only that, Xunweizhai's delicious food is unparalleled, with countless types of fine wines and delicacies from both mountains and seas.

Here, not to mention that vegetables are not allowed on the table in the inn, even linden wine is not looked upon.

Of course, Xunweizhai and the slave owners who stood behind it did not dare to be too aggressive in Yangzhou City.

I remember that a few years ago, there was a beautiful girl in Yangzhou City who had to sell herself as a slave to pay off her debt due to a sudden change in her family.

At that time, Xunwei Zhai, who had never interfered in the slave trade in the city, took action and bought the girl from the creditor at a high price, with the intention of making her work as Xunwei Zhai's hostess.

But the day after the news came out, a donkey got into Xunweizhai's wine cellar.

The donkey drank freely in the wine cellar for three days and nights and then walked away, leaving a mess behind.

Xunweizhai didn't dare to hurt the donkey, so he could only find the city lord's mansion.

The city lord was also sensible and offered to compensate on the spot.

But the conversation changed, and the city lord said that she sympathized with the inconvenience of merchants carrying copper coins in doing business, and was inspired by the Second Holy City to introduce a new currency.

So, the owner of Xunweizhai carried a sack of paper back to Xunweizhai from the city lord's mansion.

Later, there was no news about the new coins in Yangzhou City, and the pile of paper from Xunweizhai became waste paper, and was later used as Xunweizhai toilet paper as if to vent their anger.

But it was quickly taken back and treasured by the people of Yangzhou City.
