Simpson and the others are currently in the bustling Ciqikou in the south of the city. During the Ming Dynasty, this was the famous porcelain market in the capital. After hundreds of years of development, it has become a commercial area with a relatively dense concentration of trading houses.
Of course, this place is definitely not as prosperous as Dashilan, Zhushikou, and Caishikou, but it is still a lively place in the capital that you can visit!
This group of rickshaws set off from the Tianqiao in the morning, walked through Jinyuchi, then Longxugou Commercial Street developed by Xiao Letian, and then ended up at Ciqikou.
Originally, they planned to have lunch here, and then go west in the afternoon, from Zhushikou to Qianmen Street and Dashilar. The publicity task for this day was completed!
But I never expected that I would meet a troublemaking idiot in Ciqikou!
Simpson followed the direction of Liu Peiqi's finger and saw that it was a young man wearing a blue satin gown with a bright yellow belt tied around his waist. He looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old but not over twenty!
A servant next to him helped him carry the bird cage covered with black cloth. These two men seemed to be the leaders, commanding four thugs to stop the row of rickshaws!
"Bah! What a piece of shit! I want to get a new one, but you still dare to push back? Don't you want to be a part of the capital? I'm blinding you!"
Amid the curses, four thugs came up and slapped several rickshaw pullers until their mouths and noses were covered with blood!
"Hey, hey, hey... why are you beating people? Why are you beating people... and are you being unreasonable?" The leading driver dared to tell the difference while hiding, looking a little unconvinced!
Liu Peiqi slapped her thigh in shock, "Where did this old hat come from? Did you just come to the city? Are you color blind? You don't even recognize the yellow belt..."
Liu Peiqi was really right. The first condition for the Fucha family to choose these coachmen was that they should be honest, healthy and good-looking!
Thick eyebrows and big eyes make people like you just by looking at them. Only then can your business promotion be smooth!
In order to meet these conditions, most of the coachmen they selected were kind-hearted farmers from the villages outside the city, and a large part of them were even refugees from Zhili and Shanxi who had fled!
These people are down-to-earth and hard-working, with the simplicity of farmers. If you treat them better, these people will work for you wholeheartedly and will not cheat!
But there is also a disadvantage. If you are too simple and have no worldliness, you will definitely suffer in the land of the capital! But the Fucha family doesn't think they can suffer too much loss, because the entire capital knows that this is the Fucha family's business, and who wouldn't give them three points of thin noodles?
But today, someone came up to make trouble. They not only forced people to take the car, but even beat them!
"Who is this person? How rude!" Simpson asked angrily. At this time, Liu Peiqi saw that there was really no official or nobleman in the Eight Banners around who could come to make peace, so she gritted her teeth and had no choice but to do it herself.
The boy next to him, who turned pale with fright, whispered to Mr. Yang, "Master Yang, you don't understand. This man is a famous stupid overlord in the capital! Prince Gong's son, Mr. Cheng Beile!"
"Ouch... why did you provoke him? This stupid overlord hasn't been to Nancheng for more than half a year. Why did he come to Ciqikou to cause trouble all of a sudden!"
The troublemaker was none other than Zaicheng, the son of Guiziliu. Next to him was Enguang, who was beaten out of the Donghua Gate. This pair of dandy men led four thugs to commit murder in the street, and their attacks were extremely vicious!
Zai Cheng just came from Jinyu Pond, which is also a fun place in old Beijing!
Since the Yuan Dynasty, people in the north of the Temple of Heaven have used earth to bake bricks. Over time, they have turned into large pits. When the rainwater and rivers filled up, they turned into ponds!
After the capital was moved in the Ming Dynasty, some people raised and sold goldfish in this pond. Don't underestimate this business. After Emperor Yongle built the city of Beijing, the royal family and nobles moved in one after another. The rockeries and ponds in the pavilions and pavilions all needed swimming fish. Decorated!
Many wealthy families purchase thousands or even tens of thousands of goldfish at a time. Even the royal family needs to purchase ornamental fish every year!
Gradually, the name of Jinyuchi started to grow. Zaicheng, a boy who was good at eating, drinking and having fun, today took his father's order to go out on the streets to attract the attention of the court. After much deliberation, Nancheng was still the busiest!
I haven’t seen goldfish for a long time, so I had a lot of fun, and ended up buying more than a hundred koi, and when I went out, I bumped into the Fucha family’s business!
When he saw that it was the Fu Cha family's business, Zai Cheng's eyes burned. He had long disliked Fu Qing and Fu Hui. Whoever was good to Xiao Letian or the little emperor these days was his enemy!
The master of Enguang Natural Way gave the thugs a wink, and these people went up to make trouble!
You said you wanted to take a car, so you should talk nicely. Four thugs came up and snatched the car. You had to play with your master and take him around Nancheng by yourself!
The order given by these coachmen was to run the vehicle empty for publicity. They were never told to work, let alone let someone steal the vehicle. They immediately stopped the driver, but the thugs beat him up without saying a word!
The thugs brought out by Zai Cheng were really skilled, and their attacks were extremely vicious. The driver's head was buzzing with just one slap, and the flesh on his face swelled when he saw the wind!
One slap can loosen a molar tooth, and the loud slap can be heard in half the street, scaring the people to retreat!
The children who were chasing the rickshaw burst into tears, which made Zaicheng's eyes widen. The five or six-year-old children were so frightened that they cried back and did not dare to cry!
"Hit! Beat them until they have a long memory! If they die, I will pay for your donkey! Haha... you haven't even had breakfast? You don't have the energy to strike!"
"Don't worry, sir, I will make sure that my little ones will have a long memory, so that when they see you in the next life, you will have to kneel down!"
boom! There was a muffled sound, and a coward kicked him over. The simple and honest driver in the lead was kicked and somersaulted, and he opened his mouth and vomited blood.
This Enguang is even more sinister. He knows that Master Baylor is going to make things worse, so he quickly uses his damaging move. "Haha, okay, good fight! But just fighting is meaningless..."
"Who is that...soak one of them in urine, so that they can remember it! It's up to you, Master..."
"Ah haha... interesting, you still know how to play! Let me do it, I will take the first dip..."
Now even Liu Peiqi and the others were stunned. They watched Zai Cheng walk up to the coachman who was vomiting blood, lift up his jacket and take off his pants before peeing. The women on the street were so frightened that they closed their eyes and did not dare to watch!
"I'll give you a drink... to help you remember a little bit!"
On the street in Ciqikou, a group of thugs surrounded the driver who had been kicked to the ground and urinated and humiliated him. The street smelled so bad!
Liu Peiqi couldn't stand it anymore. It looked like Zai Cheng was going to kill a few people. He felt that he still had three points left, so he quickly came over with a smile and knelt down!
"Liu Peiqi, the head of the Household Department, would like to send my regards to Mr. Baylor. May you be blessed and safe!"
Zai Cheng turned around and saw that he looked familiar! He tilted his head and thought for a while, "Hey...I remembered you. Didn't you hang out with that guy Yang Zhi? When did you become the head of the household department? It seems that Yang Zhi has been looking up to you!"
"Fuck! Xiao Letian has already entered Beijing. If you don't follow your master and hide in a latrine, how dare you show up on the street?"
Why was Liu Peiqi so angry when she heard this? Don't dare to neglect and kowtow quickly, "Master Beile is joking, you don't dare to be lazy when doing errands for the imperial court!"
"I came back from the south of the Yangtze River and found a batch of good Indian soil... Oops, they are not sold to the Qing Dynasty, but the kind of good products sold to Europe..."
"I was about to send a copy to Lord Beile, but I happened to see you here..."
Liu Peiqi hadn't finished flattering him yet. Unexpectedly, Zai Cheng walked over and raised his hand and slapped her!
"Want to flatter me? You are not qualified! Let your master Yang Zhi come and kneel down and behave himself!"
Note: The first chapter of the book Hidden Dragon was updated on September 15, 2014. Counting this to today, it has been written for more than five years and four months!
It has not been updated for nearly two thousand days!
To be honest, I don’t know why it took me so long to write, and I don’t know how many book friends have stayed with me until today!
I am a pure person and I know that I have little talent and little knowledge, and the writing of this book is not very good. I am already very praised by a group of book friends who have read it!
Of course, most readers are still prostitutes for free. Maybe they think this book is not worth spending money on!
It is chilling to say that the system shows that there are thousands of readers who follow the book every day, but there are only one hundred and eighty people who are actually willing to give gifts to Yinlong every day!
Hey... Yulu You You itself is a gift that does not cost anyone money. If you think that the book Hidden Dragon is not worth spending money, then why don't you invest in two of these free props?
I won’t say anything else if you are prostituted for free. Now that we have free props, why would you waste a minute or two a day and refuse to support me? Why be so indifferent!
If it’s not for anything else, it’s just because Xinjing hasn’t had a day off for five years and four months, so it’s not like he wouldn’t even move a finger, right?
It’s New Year! I pray that all the great book lovers will give our hidden dragon a miracle!
