acquaintance?
One sentence made everyone confused.
Jiang Qingshan was even more confused.
Your acquaintance is so awesome!
"Weizhuang, could it be that you are also a robber... No, you are a knight, a knight!" A merchant asked tremblingly. Suddenly, he was glared at by the crew, and he immediately changed his mind.
Wei Zhuang had a dark look on his face, "I'm not."
"Then how do you know this guy...big brother?"
"When I met her, she wasn't doing this."
When Wei Zhuang said this, he suddenly changed the subject and asked her: "Little madam, why did you change your career?"
The little lady raised her eyebrows, her expression somewhat displeased.
A crew member behind her pointed a knife at Wei Zhuang and said in a bad tone: "Boy, no matter who you are, you have to call our boss Big Brother here!"
"Big Brother?" Wei Zhuang thought this was weird, "People usually call me Big Brother, why do you call me Big Brother?"
Scarface next to him spoke, "It turns out that I am the eldest brother, and she defeated me, so she is the eldest brother."
"Uh, okay, big brother." Wei Zhuang called out awkwardly, and then asked, "Can we enter the city now?"
The little woman glanced at him and held out two fingers.
"What do you mean?"
"Two hundred taels."
"Are you cheating on me?" Wei Zhuang was shocked, "You want more money from me?"
"Ten of you, a total of two hundred taels." The little woman's expression was a little unhappy, "I'm already acquainted with the price."
Jiang Qingshan and others looked at Wei Zhuang eagerly.
If you're not an acquaintance, why do you still need money?
Wei Zhuang coughed lightly, his face a little confused.
He came close to the young woman and whispered: "I'll give it to you when I enter the city, now give me some face."
The little woman looked at him, paused for a few seconds, and finally said "Oh" reluctantly.
…
The boat quickly docked, and Wei Zhuang and several people were surrounded and walked into the city.
At the gate of Tianzhou Mansion, many people lined up waiting for inspection by the guards.
The little woman didn't care about this and just led dozens of people to jump in line into the city.
The guard at the door even saluted the young woman respectfully, and the people lining up at the door seemed to be used to it.
Jiang Qingshan came close to Wei Zhuang and whispered: "Wei Zhuang, where are we going?"
"I don't know. Let's go along first and take a look at the scene in the city."
"Um..." Jiang Qingshan looked a little hesitant, "Brother, we are all in business, it is more convenient to stay in an inn, so..."
"Yes." Wei Zhuang said, "Then I'll go say hello to their boss."
"No need to say hello to me."
The young woman's face was expressionless, "We have already entered the city anyway, and you can leave at any time."
Hearing this, Jiang Qingshan and others were already pleasantly surprised.
However, the little woman glanced at them and said something very strange.
"But let me remind you, the inn in Tianzhou Mansion is not that easy to live in, especially for you businessmen."
"Why do you say that?" Wei Zhuang asked her.
The little lady didn't answer, but Scarface said: "There are so many reasons. If you can trust us, we will follow you. If you don't trust us, just leave."
After saying this, Jiang Qingshan was stunned, and several merchants looked at each other with hesitation.
Finally, after some ideological struggle, five merchants left.
Only Jiang Qingshan and two or three others followed Wei Zhuang.
…
The little woman led a few people all the way to a roundabout way to a street with many small alleys connected to both sides.
There are many vendors at the alley.
At the busiest alleys, the young woman stopped. She pointed inside and said, "There are several yards in the alleys. You can live there. Remember to pay, ten taels per person."
The remaining merchants looked a little unnatural. Ten taels of silver was enough to stay in an ordinary inn for several months.
But here we are, looking at the dozens of ferocious "chivalrous" people around us, and it's too late to regret it.
However, when it was Wei Zhuang's turn to pay the money, the young woman said, "You give me forty taels."
Wei Zhuang's eyes widened and he said in astonishment, "Why!"
"It's cheaper for five of them to live in a courtyard. Isn't it worth forty taels for you and your bodyguard to live in a courtyard?"
"Who said I have to live alone? Can't I live with other people?"
"You are an acquaintance of mine, and I must give you the best configuration."
"I do not need!"
"Stop talking nonsense and give me money!"
Wei Zhuang was so angry with this little woman that he had no choice but to grit his teeth and endure it.
Han Jun took out some silver from his pocket and handed it to her. The little woman took out a scale and weighed it little by little.
"Half a tael is missing."
Wei Zhuang's face turned dark and he gave her another piece.
The little woman nodded with satisfaction and waved her hand to let everyone disperse.
Several people entered the alley. Jiang Qingshan and others entered a separate courtyard with a wry smile. When he entered the door, he said: "Brother, it is thanks to you that we are out of trouble today. I will hold a banquet tonight and we will thank you very much."
Wei Zhuang nodded and accepted the invitation.
When he turned around, he wanted to go into the yard to rest, but found that the little woman was still behind him.
"Why are you following me?" Wei Zhuang asked her.
The young woman ignored him and walked slowly to a courtyard at the deepest part of the alley. "This is where I live." After that, she closed the courtyard door.
Wei Zhuang twitched the corner of his mouth and scratched his head.
"Am I her neighbor?"
Han Jun snorted coldly, his eyes full of vigilance, "Sir, I think this female thief placed you here deliberately to monitor you!"
"Why is she spying on me when she has nothing to do?"
"Young master has a distinguished status, so she must have bad intentions. In view of my humble position, it is better to find an opportunity to escape."
After hearing this, Wei Zhuang patted his shoulder and said, "As long as you come, take care of yourself. She won't do anything to me."
Han Jun didn't say anything, and cautiously opened the door and went in.
After entering, he checked every room, from the beams to the bottom of the bed. Only after seeing nothing abnormal did he let Wei Zhuang enter the main room.
There are two main rooms, the living room outside and the bedroom inside.
Dragging his tired body, Wei Zhuang went to the back room to clean up.
However, when he came out, everyone was stunned.
In the living room, Han Jun brought four piles of bricks and a rectangular wooden board to build them up, and a simple bed was ready.
"Xiao Han, I think...it doesn't have to be like this."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, if that female thief comes, I will stop her immediately."
Looking at Han Jun's simple and firm eyes, Wei Zhuang opened his mouth and swallowed his words.
This guy is so honest, several times more honest than Xu Shiyou.
…
In the evening, Wei Zhuang came to Jiang Qingshan's yard. They looked at the limited dishes on the table and swallowed.
Hosting a banquet?
What were you thinking? They wouldn't let you go out at all. The little woman asked the kitchen to provide these dishes at short notice. There was very little meat or fishy food.
Several people sighed helplessly, feeling as if they were on a pirate ship.
