"Da da da" a rapid sound of horse hooves could be heard on the main street of Yizhou City.
A dozen fat and strong horses flashed past in the eyes of people in astonishment.
The iron hooves as big as a bowl kicked out sparks on the bluestone-paved street, which flew away like meteors in an instant.
"Who is this person? He's riding like a horse on the main street of Yizhou City?"
"Even when the city guards came, they rode forward slowly on horseback. These people really don't take our main street seriously."
"Don't kid yourself. The people who guard the city are charged door-to-door. Whose house will they charge for running so fast? Do they charge for going to the state government office?"
"It's just that the horses in the state government are not as fast as galloping on the street, but they don't seem to be as strong as these people, and they don't make such a big movement."
"Oh, you don't know. These people just beat our guard captain with a horse whip at the city gate. The captain lay on the ground with his head in his hands, motionless."
"What, whip the guard captain? That's Master Zhizhou's brother-in-law, and the guard captain doesn't dare to fight back?"
"Fight back? You lie on the ground and don't dare to move except howling. How can you dare to fight back?"
"Just saying, I just heard a howl like a slaughtering pig, and I was thinking that the Chinese New Year is almost over, who is killing the pig. For a long time, our guard captain screamed."
"Let's go and see what these people are going to do."
"Oh, you go ahead. The waiter in my shop is not here today, so I can't leave..."
Some idle shopkeepers and passers-by ran up towards the direction of the cavalry.
The tavern opened by the Ouyang family is not only luxurious, but also large in scale.
Opened on the iconic main street of Yizhou City, the target group is not the ordinary boss surname.
In previous years, when the weather got warmer and most merchants came to Yizhou City, the business of this tavern began to boom.
As long as dignitaries come, this tavern is a bridge for the Ouyang family to build relationships. If ordinary merchants come, this is a place where the Ouyang family can do whatever they want and kill customers with a big knife to make profits.
In the tavern hall, there was a "squeak" sound, and a two-foot-wide small door was pushed open, and a middle-aged man in a black and blue robe walked out.
This small door seemed to be a latrine. The middle-aged man washed his hands in the basin outside the small door, then picked up the cloth hanging on the wall next to him and wiped it before walking towards the foot-long
Long big counter.
"Have all the dishes on the second floor been served?" Walking into the counter, the middle-aged man picked up the abacus and looked casually at the waiter standing aside.
"It's all here, a dish of South Lake wild fish, a plate of Yizhou donkey meat, a plate of amber peanuts, a plate of vinegar-dried almonds, and a jar of ten-year-old shochu." The waiter hunched over and reported one by one.
With.
"Is the singing and dancing arranged?"
"Don't worry, shopkeeper, this song and dance is our signature. Even if you don't serve the food, you still have to arrange the song and dance first." The waiter put a white cloth on his arm, nodded and bowed.
"I think this man is dressed in ordinary clothes. He should be an ordinary rich man. It's okay to arrange these things so that he won't be able to get the money and make us work for a long time in vain." The shopkeeper looked at an abacus made of white jade for a while.
Pull and say slowly.
There was a messy sound of horse hooves, and the shopkeeper frowned and looked at the figures getting closer and closer outside the door: "Who is galloping on this main street?"
The waiter was attracted by the roar of the horse's hooves and couldn't help but look up.
Why does this leading man on horseback look familiar? The waiter slapped his forehead, isn't this the servant who came with the young man upstairs?
"Shopkeeper, these people seem to be the servants of the young master upstairs." The waiter whispered in the middle-aged man's ear.
"I don't know how high the sky is, but the main street of Yizhou City is a servant of an ordinary wealthy family, so he can ride a horse." The shopkeeper shook his head and continued to play with the abacus in front of him.
In the blink of an eye, the horse team had arrived in front of the tavern.
Duan Tianming, the leader, drew back the reins in his hands, and the maroon horse under his crotch let out a long neigh. It kicked forward and lifted more than ten feet high, and stopped steadily at the entrance of the tavern.
The moment the maroon horse stood upright, Duan Tianming had already jumped off the horse, held his sword in his left hand, and walked into the tavern with the whip in his right hand coiled up.
I didn't even look at the counter and went straight upstairs.
Looking at the dozens of horses outside the door that were making "puff" sounds from their nostrils, the waiter rushed to the stairs and blocked Duan Tianming's way.
As the shopkeeper said just now, the young man upstairs is a young man from an ordinary wealthy family. Now he has basically finished ripping off customers and is just waiting for the cashier. There is no need to be nice to him.
In addition, these dozen horses will make a lot of noise at the door. If there are one or two piles, you have to go out and clean up yourself.
"Hey, hey, wait, wait." The waiter lowered his head, raised his right hand and waved it a few times in front of Duan Tianming: "Get rid of these horses at the door first."
"My young master is drinking upstairs. I'm here to take him back. The horses keep stopping at the door of your tavern. Do you want me to lead them into this hall?" Duan Tianming snorted coldly and was about to continue upstairs.
"Wait a minute." The waiter raised his voice with his arms crossed, blocking the stairs, "You can pick people up. The horses will be pulled to the ground in a while. You are responsible for cleaning up."
Looking at the waiter's changed expression, Duan Tianming couldn't help but laugh.
The waiter used to be fawning and respectful before, but after seeing him for a while, he actually became so arrogant. It turned out that he was really ruthless after ripping off the customer. It seems that Xiao Chen was really foresighted in not allowing the checkout.
"Uncle, when I entered the city, each horse paid a tael of sanitation fee for cleaning. The horses at the door can pull as much as they like, so naturally someone will clean them." Duan Tianming said.
Hearing that although there were many people there, he still paid the cleaning fee when he entered the city, so he must not be a powerful master. The waiter stretched out his right hand and tried to grab Duan Tianming's chest, muttering: "Get out.
Get the horses away from the door."
As a person from Dongchang, how dare someone take the initiative to attack me? A waiter in a tavern actually wanted to scratch my chest.
Without thinking, Duan Tianming raised his right leg and kicked Xiao Er's body forward.
In Dongchang, Duan Tianming's skill is not the best, but he is definitely ranked within the top ten. The strength of this kick is not only 1,000 pounds, but also 500 kilograms.
It knocked down seven or eight tables in a row, and smashed the two-foot-wide small door on the wall. With a "pop", the waiter's screams suddenly stopped.
Seeing that Duan Tianming actually dared to make a move, the shopkeeper stood up from the counter with a whoosh. Wanting to get angry, he looked at the broken door and shouted towards the back hall: "Everyone, come out here.
