He immediately weighed it and was shocked: "This piece... is indeed exactly four taels!"
When the waiter heard this, he was struck like a thunderbolt, his body went limp, and he fell to his knees with a thump, unable to explain himself.
The shopkeeper stared at him and bit into it again in confusion to see if it was true or false.
The guest was not nervous, smiled and followed his inspection, and put his fingers on the table to play a tune.
Soon, the shopkeeper was stunned and stood there awkwardly.
"How's it going?" The guest smiled, "This must be real, right?"
The shopkeeper's face was ashamed and annoyed, he didn't expect it to be like this. Just now, he was angry with the guests, but he didn't expect that his waiter had ulterior motives.
Xi Zishi stopped his chopsticks and smiled while watching the show. Tan Chenyue had already noticed the big commotion over there, but she wasn't very interested and only glanced over there occasionally.
Then, the shopkeeper began to scold the waiter on the floor.
The shopkeeper's voice drowned out the sound of wheels outside, and he was obviously really angry. The waiter knew that he had been tricked by this customer, but he had no way to explain it. He could only accept the scolding with a sad face and let the shopkeeper vent his anger.
But before he could curse a few words, the guest slowly spoke again:
"Shopkeeper, tell me, I caught a thief for you, and you just slandered my character. Does this count as repaying evil with kindness?"
As he spoke, his evil eyes kept glancing up and down the shopkeeper, as if waiting for the shopkeeper to take the initiative to speak.
Of course the shopkeeper could hear what he meant. At the moment, it is true that not only did I misunderstand others, but I also relied on others to tell me the truth regardless of past suspicions. Looking left and right, this cannot be justified in any case.
"Then, thank you for this time, sir. You...don't forget the faults of minors. I will give you a 50% discount on this meal. You see..." He leaned over with fear and asked carefully with a smile on his face.
The guest thought about it for a long time, and then he nodded slowly as if he was getting an advantage from the shopkeeper: "Then... OK. Pay me back two taels of silver, and give me a bottle of wine like this."
Even though he bargained, the shopkeeper couldn't argue. What's more, it's just an extra bottle of wine, and he can still get it.
After all, doing business depends entirely on word of mouth, and this customer is not impressed at all. Who knows what will happen if he is not happy when he is served. My store is small and can’t afford the trouble.
After responding repeatedly, the shopkeeper immediately dragged the waiter's sleeves and went to the back hall. The tavern soon fell silent again.
The river rain outside is still falling, and thick clouds are gathering on the hills on the other side of the river.
A cool breeze swept through the hall, causing the sleeves to flutter slightly. The man praised it softly, then sat on the seat and waited for the shopkeeper to serve the wine.
Xi Zishi, who had witnessed the whole process from the side, slowly walked over at this moment.
The customer didn't pay much attention to him and thought he was going to check out. But just when Xi Zishi walked up to him, a sudden burst of air pressure came out of his sleeves, lifting the hem of the guest's clothes with a "swish".
In an instant, the guest's expression changed slightly.
And as the clothes floated up, a green jade plaque hidden under him was immediately revealed.
This is Xuan Hui. It is also engraved with the words "Xiao Wanhu", which is his title.
"It's really interesting that you have a mysterious emblem and take this kind of thing for fun." Xi Zishi turned around and sat across the table from him.
Xiao Wanhu was not angry or surprised, but quickly returned to his casual look: "You are quite interesting when you have a mysterious emblem and look at such things for fun."
"Xuanjin Individual Guest, I have heard of your name before." Xi Zishi smiled faintly, "How come the killer who used to pay for his life is here with nothing to do?"
"If there is no business to do, of course I have some free time." Xiao Wanhu moved his eyes elsewhere and soon saw Tan Chenyue not far away.
How could Xi Zishi not know his plan? Now there is a raging war in the lower world, and it goes without saying that he is here in the lower world, and it goes without saying that he wants to take advantage of the chaos to make money.
"Your girlfriend." Xiao Wanhu said angrily, "Not bad."
The hall was extremely quiet except for the sound of wind and rain, and Tan Chenyue heard their conversation clearly. When Xiao Wanhu took the initiative to involve herself, she remained calm, as if she hadn't heard.
"Of course." Xi Zishi immediately became interested when he mentioned his own A Tian, "A Tian is the first and only one in this world who has captured my heart."
But obviously, Xiao Wanhu had no intention of continuing the conversation on this topic. He paused, then turned towards the back hall and shouted for wine.
The shopkeeper quickly walked out with a wine bottle and silver coins. At the same time, Xi Zishi and he both caught a glimpse of the waiter crying miserably behind the curtain in the back hall.
The shopkeeper put down the wine for him respectfully. Watching him turn back to the back hall, Xi Zishi whispered: "This trick of yours may make the waiter leave right now."
"Who cares?" Danxiao Wanhu put his hands behind his head, his expression indifferent, "Do you pity him?"
Xi Zishi shook his head slightly, took the wine glass on his table, took his wine bottle and poured a glass.
The refreshing smell of wine filled the air, and Xi Zishi's lips and teeth were filled with salivation: "This wine is good."
"My girlfriend is not allowed to drink?" Xiao Wanhu glanced at his dining table and saw that there was no wine on it, so he joked with a smile.
Xi Zishi didn't answer, and she didn't have the embarrassment of being a strict wife. He just sipped his wine and looked out the window at the distant river.
Xiao Wanhu looked at him with a strange expression. His details were clear, but he still didn't know the identities of these two people. Logically speaking, he is also a holder of the Xuan emblem, but he doesn't seem to have any impression.
