Zhao Tong looked at Huang Wenbing coldly, and saw that this man was shaking like chaff, and there was cold sweat coming out of the gaps in his clothes. He said in a panic: "Twenty thousand people are worth 700,000 in the Liao Dynasty. This is a jackal, a tiger, a leopard, with dead lips and cold teeth. My lips are dead and my teeth are cold!”
Zhao Tong said: "Aren't you taking this opportunity to recover the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun?"
Huang Wenbing grasped the corners of the table with both hands, his eyes glaring like dead fish: "Your Majesty, shouldn't we support Liao and conquer Jin?"
Zhao Tong burst out laughing, not caring about his verbal rebuttal, and said, "Wen Bing, let's have a drink!"
After three rounds of drinking, and the sky was setting at noon, Huang Wenbing gradually calmed down and hurriedly confessed. Zhao Tong ignored him and just drank, and then said: "I'm drunk, I'm drunk."
Dai Zong said: "There is the Pipa Pavilion tavern in front of the river, which is a historical site of Bai Letian in the Tang Dynasty. Distinguished guests can go to Pipa Pavilion to drink sober soup and enjoy the river view."
The five people went downstairs and walked up to the Pipa Pavilion. When they got to the pavilion, they were leaning on the river on one side and the owner's house on the other. There were dozens of seats on the Pipa Pavilion. Dai Zong picked a clean seat head and gave it to Zhao Tao. Sitting at the head of the table, Huang Wenbing sat at the opposite table, with Lei San Hong Qi on his shoulders and his own family below his shoulders.
After the five of them sat down, they asked the bartender to lay out vegetables, fruits, fresh vegetables, wine and so on. The bartender took two bottles of Yuhu Spring Wine - Jiangzhou's famous colored wine, mellow and sweet.
When Zhao Tong looked at the river, he was surprised by the extraordinary scenery, but he saw:
The distant mountains outside the clouds are towering green, and the distant water beside the river is silvery. There are faint sandy beaches, and a few rows of gulls and herons fly. The small cattails support several fishing boats. The rolling snow waves hit the sky, and the cool breeze blew over the water. Zixiao Peak is connected to the sky, and Pipa Pavilion is halfway to the river bank. It is spacious all around and exquisite on all sides. The shadow of the railing is soaked in the glass, and the light outside the window is like jade. In the past, Lotte had a great reputation, and Sima had many tears in those days.
After drinking a few more cups of Yuhuchun, the taste was indeed different from that of Xunyanglou wine. Dai Zong then called the bartender to teach him how to make several bowls of delicious sobering fish soup.
After a while, the fish soup was made. Zhao Tong picked up chopsticks and persuaded Dai Zong and Huang Wenbing to eat. He also ate some fish and took a few mouthfuls of the soup.
Hong Qi was in a hurry and ate the fish very quickly. The body of the fish entered from the left corner of his mouth and came out from the right, leaving only one fish bone. When everyone saw it, they couldn't help but laugh. Zhao Tong took two sips of the juice, then put down his chopsticks and stopped eating.
Dai Zongdao said: "My lord, this fish must be pickled and not suitable for your taste."
Zhao Tong said: "Fish soup is delicious and can relieve hangovers, but this fish is really not very good."
Dai Zong responded: "Even a villain can't eat it. It's pickled, so it's not suitable for eating."
He turned around and called the bartender and asked: "The fish soup we just made was pickled and not good enough to eat. We don't have any good fresh fish. Let's make some other soup to sober up my noble family."
But the bartender recognized him and hurriedly replied: "I dare not hide it from the dean, but the fish is indeed from last night. The dean saw the fishing boats coming and going on the river, and today's fresh fish is still in the boat. The owner of the fish teeth has not come, and he has not Dare to sell it, so there is no good fresh fish."
Huang Wenbing heard this and said: "Things created by heaven can be caught by humans and sold anywhere. How can we stock up and obey orders like this? Could it be that Yu Ya is actually a fish tyrant?"
The bartender waved his hand hurriedly: "Officials, please don't say that. The shop still has to keep stock according to this. How dare you offend me? When the market opens and fresh fish comes, I will make wine soup and serve it immediately."
Zhao Tong's face was expressionless. How could he not know about this incident on the Xunyang River? However, there were so many water bandits and mountain tyrants in the south and north of the river. How could he go to talk some sense.
When Lei San saw that Zhao Tong was silent, he said, "Even if fish tyrants and water tyrants threaten me, I will definitely not refuse the gold and silver. I will buy two of them at a high price to make soup for the little Xianggong."
Seeing that Zhao Tong didn't object, he stood up and left. The bartender couldn't stop him and had to retreat, hiding behind the cabinet and not daring to come over again.
Lei San walked to the riverside and saw that the fishing boats were lined up at random. There were about a hundred of them, most of them were tied under the green poplar trees. Some of the fishermen on the boats were lying on the stern of the boat and sleeping innocently, while others were sitting on the boat. There were people who were squinting their eyes and making webs, and there were also people who were washing their bodies in the water. He was originally a local snake in Tokyo, and he was used to seeing the local business. Seeing this scene, he couldn't help but secretly plot in his heart. This fish tooth is such a big piece of oil and water.
Lei San walked to a boat with a deep draft and knew that it would catch a lot, so he called out: "Boatman, give me three or five of your fresh fish, and I will definitely give you a lot of money."
The fisherman on the boat responded: "We can't wait for the owner of the fish tooth to come, so we don't dare to open a warehouse. Look at the traders sitting on the shore waiting."
Lei San glanced at the vendors in Jiangzhou City, stretched out his hand and took out a silver ingot, about the size of two or three taels, and said in a low voice: "It's convenient for me, it's just a few fish to taste."
When the fisherman saw the silver, he immediately showed a look of embarrassment on his face, thinking that his catch might not be worth the silver. But because of the rules and fear of the fish teeth, he really didn't dare to reach out and muttered: "Guan When someone forgives, he or she will be forgiven."
Lei San thought for a while, then took out another ingot of silver and said, "Brother, why are you so rigid? When someone asks, just treat it as a relative of the head of the house and ask for it. It's not a violation of the rules, and it doesn't concern anyone else."
The fisherman was alive, looking around and no one was paying attention, and said: "Officials, please come into the cabin."
Lei San didn't want to get into trouble, so he followed quietly into the cabin. Within a moment, he wrapped a few live big fish in a fishman's rags and returned to Pipa Pavilion.
Zhao Tong didn't ask when he saw him coming back. Lei San took Dai Zong to the side and told the story, and then handed over a few fish to Dai Zong. Dai Zong did his best, and asked the bartender to make soup. After a while, there was Fresh soup will be served.
Several people drank the soup and all praised its deliciousness. They also looked at the beautiful scenery on the river and felt relaxed and happy for a while.
But at this moment, a dispute suddenly broke out beside the fishing boat on the river bank. People gathered around on three floors and started making noises. Then they saw one person coming out of the group, leading three or five of his men, and heading straight for the Pipa Pavilion.
When he got closer, the man pointed into the pavilion and shouted: "Which blind person dares to break my riverside rules?"
Several people watched and saw that this man was six feet five six, thirty-two or thirty-year-old, with three strands of black beard covering his mouth, a light gauze swastika scarf on his head, covering his red heart, and wearing a white collared shirt. , with a piece of silk tied around his waist and worn on his shoulders, with green and white hemp shoes on his feet and long ears, and carrying a scale in his hand.
Three or five people from behind gathered a fisherman forward. The fisherman looked tremblingly, looking left and right, and finally pointed at Lei San: "This is the man who insists on buying fish. I told you not to break the rules. He used silver coins to hook up. I just sold him a few tails out of greed."
The man who came sneered and said: "I wonder why I was stumbling just now. It turns out that it's you who broke my rules. If something happens on the river tomorrow, it will be all because of you. Come on, come on, and give me an explanation!"
When Lei San heard this, he was immediately furious. How could he not know what was going on in the market? He said, "You are such a talented person who bullies the market, are you trying to blackmail me?"
The man said: "So what if I blackmail you?"
Lei Sanyi turned over and jumped out of the pavilion, stretched out his hands and showed his fists, and said, "Let's ask your grandfather about his fists!"
