"It's three o'clock. What do you do? Let's drink tea first."
The Ursus, who looked like a baboon, ran happily past the roadside and attracted the attention of a tall and thin man at the herbal tea stall across the street.
He looked at the old man at the herbal tea stall: "A cup of herbal tea and a newspaper."
"Take it, no money required."
The man asked in surprise: "Is the herbal tea stall very profitable?"
"Of course it doesn't make money, but you don't want it for free. Don't you understand that you can't read the newspaper first?"
Frustrated, he had to spread out the newspaper and look for useful information.
In the year 1077 of the Terra Calendar, Longmen of the Yan Kingdom.
"Chief Wei Yanwu arrived at Longmen and officially took over Mobile City! 》
"The Usas people announced their evacuation, and Longmen has completely belonged to Great Yan!" 》
"From today on, all products in a certain shopping mall will be discounted! 》
"Everyone is celebrating, the andrology hospital waives registration fees..."
"Thank you, old man."
Zhou Jinru bit the straw and drank herbal tea while continuing to read the newspaper. He had not returned to Longmen for a long time. Even though it was 1077 and Wei Yanwu had just taken over Longmen, he felt particularly cordial.
Since then, he has not walked through the hollow and only relied on his legs to walk on the land of Terra. He went to Victoria, to the Colombian region that had not yet declared independence, and stayed in Syracuse for a few years, during which he met Cay twice. Erxi, the two reunited briefly and then separated.
Now, Zhou Jinru is standing on the street of Longmen.
"Uncle Liang, it's not that I don't want to take care of this matter. Our Qinhan Martial Arts School never interferes with the government. I will not violate the master's words. Please find another expert."
A young man walked past Zhou Jinru with a fierce aura, and he knew he was a master at a glance.
The old police officer sighed and walked to the herbal tea stall in a few steps: "Let's have a cup of herbal tea."
"Who was that just now?"
"Li Nan, the senior brother of the Qin and Han Martial Arts School, is the number one in Longmen and is invincible in the world."
Suck slip.
Zhou Jinru took a sip of herbal tea, spit out the straw, and asked curiously: "When did he become the number one in Longmen?"
The old police officer glanced at Zhou Jinru. This young man was wearing a mask and looked suspicious at first glance. But now Longmen is full of things to do, and there are so many suspicious guys, but he is not one more.
"A few years ago, the power of the Ursus people was quite strong at that time. The senior brother Qin Han defeated seven Ursus strongmen in a row and won the plaque of the first place in Longmen. He was quite powerful among the younger generation and was recognized by the martial arts community. No. 1 in Longmen."
"so smart?"
When Zhou Jinru met Li Nan, the latter was already in his thirties and had changed his career to driving a bus. He had no airs like the senior brother of Qin and Han Dynasties. But twenty years ago now, this senior brother was very domineering and did not put others at all. In eyes.
After drinking herbal tea, Zhou Jinru carried the old suitcase. He wanted to find a place to stay before the sun went down.
Looking for information on houses for rent on the roadside, he stood in front of a three-story building. Although there were people passing by, no one noticed the man.
"Painting, how can you earn rent by painting these things all day long?! If you default on your payment next month, you should just pack up and get out, bah!"
Dozens of drawings were thrown out of the third-floor window, blown into the air by the wind, and floated into the distance.
A thin young man wearing glasses screamed and ran downstairs in a panic. He collected the paintings scattered in the courtyard like treasures and held them in his arms. Some of them had been blown away. Nothing can be done.
By chance, a drawing floated in front of Zhou Jinru. He stretched out his hand to grab it and held it in his hand.
The lines of the drawing are very rough and the content is very simple, good guys defeat bad guys.
"Thank you! Thank you! It helped a lot!"
The thin young man gratefully took the drawing from Zhou Jinru. This scene aroused the dissatisfaction of another person.
A middle-aged woman with curlers hanging on her head stuck her head out of the balcony, pointed at Zhou Jinru and shouted: "Outsiders! Don't meddle in your own business!"
Zhou Jinru raised the rental information he had been holding in his hand: "Auntie, I'm looking for a house to live in. Where is the landlord?"
The middle-aged woman stared at the young man downstairs, snorted, turned over and jumped from the third floor. A pair of slippers clicked on the ground. Not sure if it was an illusion, Zhou Jinru vaguely noticed that the ground was shaking.
"New tenant?"
The woman grabbed the rental information, looked Zhou Jinru up and down, and raised her chin: "Where are you from?"
"Victoria is here."
"What are you here for?"
"To travel."
"There is nothing touristy in this place, go back."
Zhou Jinru smiled: "I'm here to rent a house. Where is the landlord?"
When the woman saw that he didn't answer, she snorted: "I am the landlord. I pay 600 a month for a single room. Pay the rent first. 450 a month for a long-term stay. One deposit and three deposits."
The young man holding the drawing next to him whispered: "Isn't it two hundred and fifty a month?"
"You look like a 250 to me, get out!"
The thin young man turned pale and trotted upstairs, like a mouse meeting a cat.
Zhou Jinru looked at this scene with interest and asked: "Six hundred?"
"Six hundred, one penny less, please find someone else."
"But you charge him two hundred and fifty..."
"Yes, he is worth two hundred and five, but you are worth six hundred. What's the matter, do you think you don't deserve it?"
Zhou Jinru felt happy. It was interesting, really interesting. He had not seen such an interesting person for many years.
He immediately took out his wallet, counted six hundred yuan in bills, handed them to the landlord, and said with a smile, "Shall we sign a contract?"
"Without a contract, love cannot last." The middle-aged woman grabbed the banknotes and narrowed her eyes, "Is this Victoria's gold pound?"
"Yeah, is there a problem?"
"Don't exchange Longmen coins. Don't blame me for not reminding you."
At this moment, Zhou Jinru confirmed that the landlord was a sweetheart. The purpose of her high price was to make her quit. After taking the rent, she reminded not to exchange it for cash. The reason was also very simple, because in 1077, Wei Yanwu had just taken over Longmen. Longmen coins have not yet been officially issued. In other words, the current Longmen banknotes may become worthless at any time.
The landlord turned around and walked into the room on the first floor. Not long after, he threw a key to Zhou Jinru.
"Your room is on the third floor, right next to the idiot just now. Travelers should pay attention to safety and don't run around at night. Do you understand?"
"rest assured."
Zhou Jinru responded, hurried upstairs, took the key and opened the door.
Over the years, he has long been accustomed to a life of wandering around the world. Sitting by the window and looking down, Longmen Street was bustling with traffic and crowds of people, and a fresh breath of life fell on his face.
Boom boom.
There was a knock on the wooden door.
Zhou Jinru turned around and looked over. The thin young man who had been scolded by the landlord had half his head exposed from the edge of the door, smiling silly.
