Chapter 218 – Meat Tea
Chapter 218 – Meat Tea
Inside the city, in a large mansion.
This place was originally the mansion of Li Shan’s family, and then the people emptied the place.
Ding Er Dog doesn’t live here either, and later Zuo Yi Zhi doesn’t live here either, but those rich merchants who fled northward bought this mansion.
At that time, Ding Ergou hosted, once he heard that someone wants to spend money to buy a mansion, is worried about money he immediately agreed.
This mansion, people spent five hundred taels to take.
In the mansion’s lobby, this time sitting in rows of several people, the lobby’s portal is closed, the main stage has a closed incense burner, out of the smoke, emitting a charming aroma.
A young girl to the people seated one by one served tea, and then walked to the main seat next to the person kneeling down, bowed his head and did not speak.
“Yo this little ninny, where did you get it?”
Sitting in the left row of people looking at the kneeling servant, to the main seat of the person laughed: “I remember your previous House, can not be this kind of beautiful villain ah, look at the face of the white delicate, is not the general family it.”
The main seat of the person with a big belly, wearing a satin, smiled at the words, picked up the tea light sip, before saying:
“Coincidentally, this is the same city, is a bit of family capital, her brother is the only one male, because the conscription was forced to go, died on the battlefield, the death of a good ah, her dead father grieved too much a life, the money was also rolled up by the servants, leaving behind this orphaned daughter. I see her time, are almost starving, just kindly give her a bite to eat, to now, also raised almost.”
At these words, this young girl servant’s head even lower.
The right row of the first seat of the person laughed: “Raised almost good, almost good, then back to business.”
“Okay, back to the topic.”
The person in the main seat laughed for a while and said, “This price, how did it grow? Let me start by saying that the salt has risen to nearly a hundred wen.”
“I this firewood went up to five wen a catty, and those woodlands outside the city have sent people over to occupy them, ensuring that those people can’t cut firewood to hunt animals.”
“I’m not good at controlling this cloth, but I’ve finally acquired some, and it’s almost time to come back.”
The people were there talking about the items under their control, and in the end they looked at each other and smiled, and the person in the main seat cleared his throat and said, “Besides this last rice and grain, at present this bucket of rice is almost almost thirty wen, do you still accept it?”
“Collect ah, why not, it’s only thirty wen, it’s a war outside now.”
“Yes extremely, the war lack of food is a big mouth, outside the price of food is now up to 100 wen, collect grain, turn out, that is a large sum of money ah.”
“But I heard, this Golden Immortal Sect and other sects are not the same ah, is a kind-hearted sect, to come here a few days also do not let people offer, I heard that as long as the management of their food, clothing and supplies on the line, but also engaged in an official government, with the Great Chu like.”
“It does not matter, Da Chu’s government is also above the group of lords used to constrain the mortals, and again, which sects do not want to offer, this is not to the time it, really want to only care about that food, clothing and usage that’s simple, we pay money high up.”
The person in the main seat pressed his hand, stopping their urge to continue exploring, laughing:
“How do the people above think, we can not care, but come here, into the countryside, do as the Romans do, above the lords want to be a good man, then we will publicize more publicity, do good deeds, so that the bottom of the mud legs begging to go to the offerings. At that time, those big lords above are happy, not with us?”
The moment these words came out, all of them revealed a heartfelt smile.
Which sect didn’t want offerings? It was just a matter of different ways.
But no matter what, it had nothing to do with them people, no matter which sect ruled here, they were all needed.
There were too many mortals to manage, so if they wanted to make offerings, wouldn’t they still have to go through them?
Compared to that, manipulating prices so as to rule a city is nothing, the lords above don’t care, and it’s useless for the mud legged people below to care.
This is what they are good at doing before, the people here, which one is not a local dignitary, if not because of the fear of war, they do not necessarily want to run to this.
“This plan to collect grain, must continue, this time can be different from the past, outside the war it, more hoarding, when the time comes a handful of release!”
The person in the main seat said, the corner of his mouth floated up with a happy smile.
This place is good ah!
The price of food in other places, and then low also has a limit, but this city is different, the price of food is low to death, for them, this is a piece of treasure land that has not been developed ah.
Unfortunately, it is in the northern border, the transportation is not very developed, but the problem is not big, they are not transported to the southern battlefield, the first control of the city, when the city prices go up, the outside of a handful of money is also earned, the people in the city are also at their disposal to manipulate.
How to think, this is not a loss.
The others seemed to have thought of this level, and the corners of their mouths floated up with smiles.
“This is all happy news, that said, it’s time to actually serve the tea, business can be talked about anytime, but good tea isn’t something you can drink anytime!”
The first person in the right row said, unconsciously looking towards the kneeling young girl with a touch of longing, and a scarlet color even appeared in the pupils of his eyes.
“It should be so!”
The voice of the person in the main seat, at this moment, became extremely hoarse and extremely suppressed, and it was unknown what he was holding back.
Portal tightly closed within the lobby, plainly, seems to be a little twisted, the surrounding seems to be covered by the smoke of the incense burner on the stage, so that people are still a little difficult to see.
“Ning’er.” A suppressed voice rang out.
“Master.”
The young girl raised her head at the words, just about to answer, but the next moment she was dumbfounded, and under the tightening of her pupils, she let out a shriek, and her entire body popped up, subconsciously shrinking towards the corner.
Snap.
But at this time, the fat hand gripped the young girl’s white thin wrist, that huge force let her how to struggle, is unable to break free.
Only to see this lobby, all sitting in this lord, under the green smoke, head a burst of distortion, looking at the mouth crooked mouth slanting but green fangs, and the eyes are flooded with scarlet light.
Especially on the main seat, the master who took him in, that already fat head at this time appears more fat, like a pig, his mouth open, teeth are turned out, saliva straight down, the pair of red eyes staring over, let the young girl body a jolt.
Desire.
She saw extreme longing in them.
“Drink tea .” “Drink tea.”
The others were not much different in appearance, all staring at her, their mouths chanting in unison, and the voice seemed to carry a magic power that made the young girl dizzy.
“Ning’er, serve the tea.”
The person in the main seat slowly said, “We’re going to drink tea.”
The young girl steeled herself and looked at the still-hot tealight on the counter next to the people, swallowed her saliva, and boldly said, “Master, this tea . . has just been served.”
“Not that kind of tea, but.”
The man in the main seat’s arm fired, pulling the young girl straight to him, the red aura in his eyes almost bursting open, “Meat tea ah!”
He opened his mouth, straight toward the young girl arm bite over, at the same time, the other people from the seat pounced away, like a wild beast, limbs crouch on the ground, open mouth toward the young girl rushed.
“Don’t, don’t!!!” The young girl’s eyes were wide open, and a mournful shriek came out of her mouth.
Bang!
Just as their mouths were about to tear up this young girl’s body, a loud bang suddenly sounded from outside, which caused everyone’s movements to stall.
Bang!
Immediately afterward, the main door of the hall fell straight down as if it had suffered some huge force, causing the aroma inside the hall to scatter.
“Save.”
With tears in her eyes, the young girl subconsciously let out a cry, but this voice just came out halfway, and suddenly froze.
At this time which there is what twisted green-faced fangs of the people, those who lunged at him the lords, at this time one by one is sitting down, just now that scene, seems to be like a dream.
“What door is closed in broad daylight?!”
A voice rang out from within the lobby.
The young girl turned her eyes to look, only to see a group of people gathered at the entrance of the lobby.
These people were in different forms and all looked strange.
There were little girl-like ones that were there giggling and jumping all the way over.
There are shaking a folding fan, one hand behind the back, handsome, a gorgeous dress, such as a fluttering dandy brother.
There is also a big and thick, unusually robust, like a small giant, hand also carried a person, the corner of the mouth with disdain.
Although the form is not the same, but look seems to be not to be messed with, but there are two look not so good, one is like a beggar, coarse linen clothes, yellow and skinny, like not eaten a full meal.
A rich merchant dress, hands arched together, old God.
These two people are clearly differentiated from others, looking not all the way.
Only to see only that giant threw the person he was carrying in his hand to the ground and shouted, “I was a bit polite just now, but it turns out that you gatekeepers won’t let me in, damn it, this city is all ours!”
The person who was thrown on the ground, she recognized, was the subordinate who guarded the gate.
“Eh?”
Just as he had finished speaking, he saw that at the very first head, a youth wearing ordinary clothing with a cloak over it, like a peasant son, glanced towards him.
“No, what I mean is that they must have ghosts here with the door closed, otherwise why don’t they let us in.”
That giant looked like he had seen something terrifying, his head shrank and he stuttered in his speech.
Obviously so tall and oppressive, but was that face afraid of that youth?
“Senior brother, this kind of thing how can I let you come here in a big way, and bring the senior brothers along, if you ask me, Lao San alone is enough.” Zhang Feixuan fawned at the side.
“Yes, yes, senior brother, I’m enough for one person.” Wang Qizheng quickly nodded his head.
These people were none other than the Golden Immortal Sect gang led by Song Yin
There was also Yao Ningqing and Zuo Yizhi.
Originally, one person was really enough, but Song Yin wanted to go and meet who dared to hoard, so he went on the battlefield himself, and with him alone, the others didn’t dare not to come.
Su Yougen also wanted to come, but was held down, he had to be there to organize the household register.
Originally, Yao Ningqing was also supposed to go and help, but he wanted to see how the Golden Immortal Sect handled things, so he volunteered to come along.
“Zuo Yi Zhi?!”
The person who was at the main seat at this time recognized Zuo Yizhi and frowned, “I don’t remember offending you, and injuring my subordinates, what do you want?!”
Zuo Yi Zhi arched his hand towards them and laughed: “See you bosses, I don’t want to do anything, it’s just that the Grand Master wants to check something, and you guys are the most suspected, so this is what I’ve come over.”
The Grand Master?
This Hundred Shou City, there are not many that can be called a Grand Master, they are called Grand Masters by their subordinates, but those that can make Zuo Yi Zhi call them Grand Masters .
“Tsk, why are you guys still sitting?!”
Wang Qizheng saw that they were still sitting, took a deep breath, and suddenly roared forward, “Ge motherfucker, senior brother is standing here, who are you to sit, stand up!!!”
The voice was fierce, and even more so, it brought up a wave of air that shattered the chairs under them with a snap, and at the moment the chairs shattered, a group of people stood up, and the color of surprise appeared on their faces.
“Huh?”
On the contrary, it was Zhang Feixuan who saw this and lightly eeped, revealing a look of surprise.
A few mortals, but they are quite stable
