Hearing this, the tea guests below couldn't help but sigh, and the atmosphere was quite sad for a while! At this moment, Lu Tianhua said loudly: "But don't be sad, everyone! Don't forget that our dynasty is now in a period of great prosperity. There is a wise king above, a virtuous prime minister in the middle, and scholars like us below! As long as we are united, With great righteousness in mind, I took this opportunity of their fight against each other to attack the Jin Yiwei. Even if they cannot abolish the Jin Yiwei, it will dampen their arrogance and make them more honest! So after their private fight this time, I am going to write a letter. , requesting that Jin Yiwei be abolished, we cannot let this kind of private fight happen again!"
Hearing such righteous and awe-inspiring words, the readers below were so moved that tears filled their eyes. They stood up one after another and said impassionedly: "We are willing to follow Jiwei!"
"I am willing to advance and retreat together with Mr. Lu, but I must fight to the death with the Jin Yiwei!"
"It has taken two hundred years for the country to raise its men, and it will take this day to make great achievements!"
As everyone cheered, the atmosphere in the teahouse gradually became impassioned! For a moment, everyone in the teahouse looked like they were united! Taking this opportunity, Lu Tianhua began to talk about his idea of how to submit a letter!
Just as he spoke with great grace, the shopkeeper and the waiter on the side finally couldn't help but start discussing. After all, the matter of dating is really hot in the capital now!
Just listen to the waiter say: "Shopkeeper, I think what they said is a bit biased! Didn't they talk about the Jin Yiwei and the servants? Why did they go to the impeachment of the Jin Yiwei?"
The shopkeeper said: "You don't know as much as these scholars and can see far! So why do you care so much? Let them decide!"
The guy said: "I don't understand what they are talking about, but I still think fighting is more interesting! I just don't know who among them can win?"
The shopkeeper casually pulled the abacus beads and said, "As before, what does it have to do with you? Just do your job well. No matter who wins, they don't dare to come to our teahouse to collect money!"
The waiter smiled and said: "That's true! Our boss is an official of the Ministry of Justice. Who dares to come here and try to get a trick! Let the boss use the big shackles on him when the time comes!"
At this moment, I suddenly heard someone behind me say: "Shopkeeper, Xiao Wu, this matter has nothing to do with you, but it has a lot to do with me!"
The two of them turned around and saw that it was old man Zhang who was setting up a stall at the entrance of the teahouse. Old man Zhang has a good skill in cooking beans. The beans he cooked are salty, soft and very delicious! Tea drinkers often ask for a dish of beans as a snack when drinking tea.
Therefore, the shopkeeper of the teahouse specially allowed him to place his car on the right side of the teahouse door. This not only made it convenient for the guests in the teahouse to eat beans, but they could also occasionally grab a few handfuls of beans from Old Man Zhang to satisfy their cravings. With a fixed stall, Mr. Zhang can not only fix his customer base, but also sell beans in pieces to passers-by. It can be said that he kills three birds with one stone!
Seeing that it was old man Zhang who was speaking, the shopkeeper felt relieved and scolded in a low voice: "What do you know, an old man who cooks beans?"
Old man Zhang put a plate of beans on the counter and said, "The freshly cooked beans are the most delicious at this time. The shopkeeper will try them, and Xiao Wu will eat some too!"
Seeing them all grabbing the beans and throwing them in their mouths, Old Man Zhang sighed and said, "It doesn't matter who wins, the guards or the guards, as long as one of them wins! It is said that the loser cannot go to the street. The shopkeeper collects money, is that so?"
The shopkeeper hesitated and said: "I just heard it, it may not be true!"
Old man Zhang said: "It would be great if it were true! It's very difficult to do business now! The guards have to collect money, the guards have to collect money, and the idle men on the street come to fight in the autumn wind from time to time, and the militia patrol team comes over. I have to grab two handfuls of beans and run away! In addition to taxes and miscellaneous things, I have to pay seven or eight kinds of money! If the loser really can't collect the money, maybe I can pay less!"
The shopkeeper said seriously: "Old Zhang, you are thinking too much! Even if this thing is true, the winner will also receive an extra amount of money, and you will still have to pay what you should pay! So I have said it a long time ago But, you sold the recipe for cooking beans to the teahouse, and you went directly to the teahouse to be responsible for cooking the beans! Not to mention making more money than before, and no one dares to blackmail you, why do you keep going so hard? "
The waiter beside him said with a playful smile: "Shopkeeper, you can't say this any more. If you say any more, you will be seeking employment and property!"
The shopkeeper threw the two beans in his hand at the waiter's face and scolded: "What do you know? If it weren't for the protection of noble people these days, do you think our tea house can live so freely! Maybe one day we won't be smashed by Jin Yiwei. , he was beaten by the guards, and then he was beaten by some evil young slave! So it was for his own good that I asked Lao Zhang to sell the prescription!"
Old man Zhang shook his head and said: "Shopkeeper, I appreciate your kindness! It's just that this recipe was handed down from our ancestors, and the family still depends on him for food, so there is no way it can be sold!"
The shopkeeper said: "I'm not forcing you, you can figure it out on your own! Come find me after you've made up your mind."
Old man Zhang shook his head and rejected the topic. He turned to the waiter and said, "Xiao Wu, on what day did they agree to fight?"
The boy said: "It's tomorrow! It's at the small school field in the west of the city. What, you want to go see the fun?"
Old man Zhang said: "How can I have time to watch the excitement? I think there will be a lot of people there tomorrow, so I want to set up a stall there, maybe I can sell more copper coins! Also, I know that the gentlemen there are well-informed, I just want to hear who they think will win? So I can go to the gambling house and place a few bets, maybe I can get some more money!"
The shopkeeper was surprised when he heard this and said: "Why, the casino has already announced the handicap? Whose handicap is higher?"
The waiter said: "I know! It's just that this handicap is very strange! The servant's pay is 12% to one, and the Jin Yiwei's pay is 5% to one!"
Old man Zhang said in surprise: "How can there be such a big difference? I usually see that the Jin Yiwei and the guards have similar virtues. I even think that the guards are not as capable as the Jin Yiwei!"
The shopkeeper said: "Yeah, it's really confusing! But if you come to the gambling shop, the information will be better, and they probably won't offer money-losing odds! If you look at it that way, there must be something on the other side of the waiter. Maybe it’s a trump card!”
Old man Zhang said: "Could it be that there are strong martial arts masters in the civilian army?"
