Therefore, I am bleeding from the knife today.
It can help you escape.
Secondly, you can also make a name for yourself.
Ying Xuan memorized a famous saying.
That is the first step to success, opening up visibility.
Today's bloody sword killing of ghosts is just the appetizer for fame.
A small ritual is not enough to make one famous.
As long as you do something that is enough to alarm Jiajing, you will be considered successful.
While Ying Xuan was thinking, Fan Kuai's stomach growled.
Fan Kuai met Ying Xuan's gaze and immediately smiled:
"Sir, it's time to eat!"
During the Qin Dynasty, it was the custom to have two meals a day, regardless of high or low.
One meal in the morning and one meal in the afternoon.
But now in the Jiajing Dynasty, the custom of three meals a day has become popular.
In Qingpu County these days, Fan Kuai learned nothing.
But regarding three meals a day, his stomach would growl on its own without anyone having to tell him.
Ying Xuan also felt hungry at this time.
He took the two of them with him and planned to have some food in front of the inn.
This Ming Dynasty post station was not only used for sending and receiving mail documents.
It is also responsible for the transportation of supplies and materials, as well as the reception of officials and their visits.
At the same time, it is also used for commercial purposes in my free time.
As long as passing merchants are willing to spend money, they can eat, stay and rest.
This can generate revenue for the county government.
So there is a restaurant in front of this inn.
Ying Xuan's heart became clear.
Xu Ze, the magistrate of Qingpu County, settled the three of himself in this place.
Not out of any good intentions.
In the final analysis, they were monitoring the three of them in disguise.
Come to the restaurant.
What made Ying Xuan unexpected was that no one was eating in the restaurant at this moment.
Or maybe it's the waiter busy in the restaurant.
Everyone turned their attention to them.
Even Fan Kuai, who has always been carefree, looked unnatural.
Suddenly, a well-dressed man on the table stood up, picked up two glasses of wine on the table and walked over to Ying Xuan.
"This must be Taoist Priest Ying Xuan who traveled overseas and came to our country for the first time."
"I, Chen, have always respected people in the Taoist sect. If you don't mind being a Taoist priest, I would like to invite the three of you to sit at the same table with me and have a drink."
At the same time, several more people stood up and came over to invite Ying Xuan.
Ying Xuan could only decline them one by one.
The three of them finally found an inconspicuous corner, sat down, and ordered some hot dishes from the waiter.
But while waiting for the food.
I saw another group of people from Haihai coming outside the door.
All of them were dressed like five or six people, with rosy faces, clearly different from the hungry and skinny homeless people who could be seen everywhere on the street.
As soon as these people came in, they all rushed to Ying Xuan's side without eating or drinking.
"Young Master Ying came from overseas. Are you used to Ming Dynasty's food?"
These people greeted each other with greetings and then revealed their purpose.
I want to make friends with Ying Xuan.
Only then did Ying Xuan know that the news of his generous purchase of four gold cakes today had already been known throughout the city.
It also includes his own deeds of killing evil spirits in the magistrate's study.
The small Qingpu County is not big at all.
Things in the east of the city can be spread to the west of the city in an hour.
And the group of people now standing in front of Ying Xuan and the others are undoubtedly prominent figures in Qingpu County.
I came here to make friends, to put it bluntly, I was interested in Ying Xuan’s money.
Ying Xuan knew that he had released the bait at the Qingpu County Government Office today.
Some fish have started to bite the hook.
So Ying Xuan asked the waiter to put together all the empty tables in the restaurant.
"Everyone, Ying is here for the first time, and I would like to thank all the gentlemen and nobles for their appreciation."
"Today I, Ying, am sitting in the east. I would like to treat you all to a table of wine and food to express my gratitude."
These squire leaders are all channels for making a name for themselves.
At the table, Ying Xuan wanted to satisfy everyone's curiosity.
Based on my own experience of going to sea, I compiled a bizarre experience of seeking immortality and asking questions.
It's all about bizarre and bizarre things.
The people present were even more convinced and praised Ying Xuan for being a great destiny.
After a feast of wine and food, these squires achieved their purpose of making friends and naturally left with satisfaction.
But there is still a stone in Ying Xuan's heart that cannot fall to the ground.
That is County Magistrate Xu Ze!
There is no other reason than Xu Ze, who has been the magistrate of Qingpu County for most of his life.
But this man is extremely smart and sinister.
Although he is currently living in the inn, he has also lost his freedom.
Once out of the inn, Xu Ze will definitely know.
As for leaving Qingpu County, don’t even think about it.
And the Qingpu County government office that night.
Xu Ze still couldn't forget about Ying Xuan's ghost killing today.
Although today he completely believed in Ying Xuanhui's immortal method.
But looking back now, Xu Ze always felt that something was wrong.
Before thinking that something was wrong.
He would not attack Ying Xuan and his gang easily.
If, these three people can really help him get promoted.
Then he would write to the court and use his connections to recommend Ying Xuan and the others to the emperor.
When the time comes, I will have accomplished another great feat.
Will all the glory and wealth in the rest of my life come?
It doesn't matter if it's fake.
The three of them were in the inn, and their every move was under his surveillance.
As long as they are in Qingpu County, these three people can hardly fly.
It was also at the inn that night.
Ying Xuan settled on one idea, that is, to find a way to bring down Xu Ze!
The biggest uncontrollable factor that prevents me from becoming famous now.
This is Xu Ze.
Early the next morning, Ying Xuan was not idle.
He took Zhang Liang and Fan Kuai to the street, and asked Zhang Liang to pawn in exchange for some money.
Then he led the three of them towards the grain store.
"Zifang, in this Ming Dynasty, governance is poor and refugees are everywhere."
"And if we want to get ahead faster in this Ming Dynasty, we must start from the step of becoming famous."
"There are about three thousand refugees in Qingpu County. After all, ten taels of silver are enough to feed these refugees for a day."
"You buy some grain and let the store transport it back to the inn where we live."
"Tomorrow, hire someone to go to the door of the inn, set up a stove, and cook rice porridge for the refugees to have a full meal."
Ying Xuan gave orders while walking.
Standing on the roadside and looking around, the streets are full of homeless people begging for food.
Ying Xuan learned about it yesterday while having dinner with a group of Qingpu squires and other respectable people.
Because there is no harvest this year, this county and several nearby counties have no harvest.
There were many refugees.
Moreover, most of these refugees were infected with various diseases such as dysentery and skin diseases.
I looked at the homeless people on the roadside who were all emaciated, with ulcerated skin, and lifeless.
An idea gradually matured in Ying Xuan's mind...
After Zhang Liang finished exchanging the silver, Ying Xuan asked Fan Kuai to ask for forty shi of grain from the grain store.
Then let the grain shop's car be sent to the post station.
…
The whereabouts of Ying Xuan and the others included what they did and said after leaving the inn.
They were all listed on a piece of paper and sent to Xu Ze.
When Xu Ze saw Ying Xuan buying forty stones of food in one go, he became uneasy.
"Forty stones of grain? What do they want to buy so much grain for?"
