This scholar named Gao Wentai looks tall, thin and rather frail, but with his regular and angular features and his bookish air, he is considered a rare handsome man.
Liu Erbing is not good-looking, so he is very unfriendly to good-looking men. This is probably a sign of extreme lack of confidence.
In addition, his pursuit of Li Xue had not been successful yet, and he was afraid that someone would steal his love, so he stood directly at the front and looked at Gao Wentai with a wary expression.
This move startled Gao Wentai, who unconsciously took two steps back, staggered, and almost fell to the ground.
He asked at a loss: "Why is this brother looking at me like this?" Zhang Ren also felt that Liu Erbing was quite rude, so he stepped forward and pulled Liu Erbing back, while mouthing He also said: "Why are you crazy?
Liu Erbing pointed at Gao Wentai and said, "This pretty boy is not a good person at first glance! I am the most experienced. Good-looking men are generally not good people!"
"All good-looking men are not good people?" Zhang Ren felt that this was extremely inaccurate. He pointed at himself and said, "I think you are scolding me, but I have no evidence yet.
Liu Erbing pulled Zhang Ren aside and said, "What are you causing trouble? You don't look good. Why did I scold you?"
Zhang Ren said helplessly: "Maybe you weren't scolding me with what you said before, but this sentence is definitely scolding me."
He continued to point at his face and asked Li Xue and Tong Yi: "Am I not handsome?" Li Xue's face remained expressionless and cold. He only glanced at Zhang Ren and said nothing more, while Tong Yi covered his mouth. He chuckled and said nothing.
Unable to get the answer he wanted from them, Zhang Ren turned to Gao Wentai and asked: "Let me ask you, am I handsome?
Gao Wentai couldn't help but take two steps back. He smiled awkwardly and didn't know how to answer. Fortunately, Tongyi was more lively, so he jumped out and said to Gaowentai: "It's hard to find a place to stay now, but fortunately, my senior brother runs an inn.
Gao Wentai was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "That's great. I wonder if some of you can take me there?"
"...The team of four people went there, but became five people when they came back." This made Xiao Jin almost cry. Is this person still acquainted with the governor?
If things go on like this, I will really lose everything in the coffin. As soon as he came in, Zhang Ren directly ordered Xiao Jin: "We have guests, prepare some food for them.
"Xiao Jin gave a wry smile. After careful consideration, he finally said: "Boss, we haven't made any money these days. We really don't have any money in our account to go out and buy again.
Zhang Ren then slapped his forehead and said, "It's my fault. It's my first time doing business in this inn, so I neglected it."
Zhang Ren said, and originally wanted to take out some banknotes for Xiao Jin, but Gao Wentai got there first and handed over a banknote directly.
He smiled and said, "I have some money. Please prepare some food for me." Xiao Jin was so excited. After several days, he finally didn't have to put money in it. At this moment, he was so excited. I wish I could kiss Gao Wentai and his wife.
When he received the banknote, he shouted excitedly: "One hundred taels?" Because of the war, inflation in Dongchang Mansion was severe, and the prices of everything were rising crazily, and some items even Even money can't buy it.
But one hundred taels is still a lot, mainly because the war has not spread to Dongchang Mansion, so these one hundred taels can still buy a lot of things.
Everyone's eyes were instantly focused on Gao Wentai. Zhang Ren even said: "I'm not a black shop here. I don't need so much for accommodation and food.
Gao Wentai smiled coquettishly and said: "Now that the war is raging, I have traveled all over Dongchang City, but I only found this inn. I am extremely grateful to you for taking me in. Money is just a few possessions."
"Zhang Ren wanted to say something else, but unexpectedly, Xiao Jin put the banknote worth one hundred taels directly into his front pocket.
No joke, this is the first time Xiao Jin has looked back these days. Even if Zhang Ren will punish him in the future, he will never spit out the money.
Fortunately, Gao Wentai didn't seem to be a money-hungry owner. Zhang Ren only glanced at Xiao Jin angrily and said softly: "The account records should be clearer. The guests' money is temporarily stored with us. We will refund more in the future." Supplement less.
Xiao Jin grinned, nodded in agreement, and happily prepared to eat. Several people sat around the table. Zhang Ren personally poured a cup of tea for Gao Wentai and asked, "The world is so chaotic. Where did Brother Gao come from and go?"
Gao Wentai took a sip of tea and replied: "To be honest, I am from Bohai. I have been studying in Jinling before. It's just that the world is not peaceful, and my family happens to be under the rule of King Yan. I can't worry about my family, so I thought Let's go home and have a look.
In fact, this way is the closest to Hangzhou, but the war there is intense, so I can only take a detour to Dongchang.
"Liu Erbing poured himself a cup of tea, raised his eyes and asked, "Bohai Gao family?" Gao Wentai nodded slightly, looking more confident, "Yes, I am Bohai Gao family. The descendants of the family.
Liu Erbing asked again: "Since the Wu Zhou Dynasty, haven't all the aristocratic families collapsed?" Gao Wentai said: "This is true. The descendants of my Bohai Gao family are also scattered across the country, but there are still ancestral temples in Bohai. , this branch of my family has been guarding the ancestral temple for generations.
Zhang Ren raised his eyebrows and looked at Liu Erbing, and asked, "I used to think that you were unlearned and incompetent, but I didn't expect that you actually knew about the Bohai Gao family?"
"Zhang Ren definitely sighed from the bottom of his heart. He is also a scumbag. He himself doesn't even know who the Bohai Gao family is.
Liu Erbing glanced at Zhang Ren and said quite contentedly: "This is all common sense, okay?" He put down the tea cup and continued: "I heard that a talented man came out of the Imperial College, and he was a descendant of the Bohai Gao family. , even the storytellers said that among the young generation in Jinling City, the top priority is the tall and talented man and Xiao Zhuge, who solved the murder case of Li Gui.
"Zhang Ren naturally knew that this so-called little Zhuge was him, but he didn't expect that he was so famous, and the Gao Wentai in front of him couldn't be the talented man who was as famous as himself, right?
Of course, what surprised Zhang Ren even more was that Liu Erbing knew so much. It seemed that he was not a guard in vain.
Gao Wentai smiled softly and said, "It's the Bohai Gao family who studied in the Imperial College, which made everyone laugh.
