Chapter 154: just looking

Views:

The man who was arranging the mess was stunned for a moment, and then the ferocity on the corner of his mouth gradually became clear: "Who the hell are you?"

Zhang Yifu, the big shopkeeper, has been in Jushangyuan for more than fifteen years and is highly respected. It is precisely because of him that the reputation of Jushangyuan will become bigger and bigger.

An Zheng waved his hand: "Get out of here, by the way. You can cook bad food within a month and my people will guarantee you to make money. If your food doesn't taste good after a month, I will beat you every day, three times a day, and maybe a midnight snack."

An Zheng smiled and replied: "My fucking name is An Zheng."

An Zheng said: "Xiaoqi Dao just lacks a clerk. I can teach him how to practice, but he is really not very good in this area. This scholar seems to be okay, just keep him."

An Zheng said: "Don't be so polite. I'm in a good mood today so I won't hit anyone. You can collect a hundred taels of silver and give it to me. Then from today on, don't make messes or make money by deceiving people. If you can do it, just leave. If you can't do it, I'll help you think of a way. People like you can't be educated. The best way is to beat them to death. But people's lives depend on their parents. If I beat you to death, your parents won't live long. "

Then the ferocious expression on the corner of the man's mouth turned into a twitch: "An... Master An..."

An Zheng put down the banknote: "I'm not short of money. Friendship belongs to friendship, and things belong to things."

An Zheng thought this person was interesting: "Where do you live now?"

An Zheng asked.

An Zheng took forty taels of silver from the man, but did not take the rest: "If you take all your silver, you will steal, rob, and harm others. I leave these for you, and use this For the money, rent a store outside Tianqizong and learn how to make snacks. I can see you coming in and out... Oh, by the way, almost all the stores outside Tianqizong are mine. I will rent them to you at a discount. A restaurant with a good location. Regardless of whether it’s delicious or not, the people from Tianqizong will support it for you.”

An Zheng's expression changed slightly and he shouted to the scholar, "What's your name?"

An Zheng put the forty taels of silver into the scholar's hand: "Idiot, use this money to stay in an inn and wait for the imperial examination. If you win, remember to be a good official. If you don't win, go to those bastards and start the exam." The store is a counting house.”

Zhang Yifu, the big shopkeeper, has been in Jushangyuan for more than fifteen years and is highly respected. It is precisely because of him that the reputation of Jushangyuan will become bigger and bigger.

An Zheng: "You are the bitch..."

An Zheng said: "Don't be so polite. I'm in a good mood today so I won't hit anyone. You can collect a hundred taels of silver and give it to me. Then from today on, don't make messes or make money by deceiving people. If you can do it, just leave. If you can't do it, I'll help you think of a way. People like you can't be educated. The best way is to beat them to death. But people's lives depend on their parents. If I beat you to death, your parents won't live long. "

Zhuang Feifei asked: "Then what are you doing here this time?"

Zhang Yifu sighed: "No, so such a good thing is going to be wasted right before your eyes."

An Zheng was silent for a while and then said: "Just looking at you, for the sake of saying sister."

An Zheng smiled and replied: "My fucking name is An Zheng."

An Zheng asked: "The imperial court has reserved a place at the inn for you who are taking the imperial examination. Even if there is no room in the inn, there are many cheap inns. Why do you live under the bridge?"

The man didn't even dare to say anything. Several people gathered around and took out only seventy or eighty taels of silver: "I really can't get it all together. How about you wait and I can borrow some?"

"According to the information I got, the queen mother gave the star-patterned meteorite iron to Li Changlu, and asked Li Changlu to find a way to sell it to continue building the Jinxiu Palace. Li Changlu did not come to Jushangyuan, but went to another auction house. It was opened by people from Daxi in Fanggu City."

The scholar replied: "From the southwest and southeast."

"Thanks."

An Zheng shook his head: "You deceivers are already down and out...Give me half."

An Zheng asked: "The imperial court has reserved a place at the inn for you who are taking the imperial examination. Even if there is no room in the inn, there are many cheap inns. Why do you live under the bridge?"

The man clasped his fists: "Master An is really loyal, I accept it."

The man didn't even dare to say anything. Several people gathered around and took out only seventy or eighty taels of silver: "I really can't get it all together. How about you wait and I can borrow some?"

Zhuang Feifei said: "I just got the news. It is said that in order to assassinate King Yan and the Queen Mother, the gifts were all real good things, just to numb the vigilance of King Yan and the Queen Mother. Wasn't there a box at that time, saying that there were three things in it? It turns out that there really are some treasures. One of them is the Liufeng Dao, which is now in the hands of the Queen Mother. The other one is a piece of star-patterned meteorite about the size of a thumb, which is of inestimable value. , I don’t know.”

The man was stunned and didn't understand what he meant.

An Zheng smiled and replied: "My fucking name is An Zheng."

An Zheng: "You are the bitch..."

Du Shoushou curled his lips: "There are people who pick up money and things, and there are people who pick up rags. You are the picker. I picked up Lang Jing a few days ago, and now I pick up Gu Chaotong. I don't know how many more I will pick up in the future."

An Zheng took forty taels of silver from the man, but did not take the rest: "If you take all your silver, you will steal, rob, and harm others. I leave these for you, and use this For the money, rent a store outside Tianqizong and learn how to make snacks. I can see you coming in and out... Oh, by the way, almost all the stores outside Tianqizong are mine. I will rent them to you at a discount. A restaurant with a good location. Regardless of whether it’s delicious or not, the people from Tianqizong will support it for you.”

An Zheng smiled and said: "We can't waste it, let's do this... I'll take the things away first, and I'll leave a deposit of 100,000 taels of silver for the store. If the armor can really be made, I think it won't be cheap for outsiders. Give it to my brother." Du Shaoshou. If it fails, this hundred thousand taels of silver will be my compensation to Jushangyuan."

An Zheng asked: "Can you read faces?"

An Zheng opened it and looked at it, and found the whereabouts of Li Changlu during this period. It turned out that it was not just him who was staring at Li Changlu, but Jushangyuan was also watching him all the time.

"Thank you, Mr. An!"

Zhuang Feifei said: "I just got the news. It is said that in order to assassinate King Yan and the Queen Mother, the gifts were all real good things, just to numb the vigilance of King Yan and the Queen Mother. Wasn't there a box at that time, saying that there were three things in it? It turns out that there really are some treasures. One of them is the Liufeng Dao, which is now in the hands of the Queen Mother. The other one is a piece of star-patterned meteorite about the size of a thumb, which is of inestimable value. , I don’t know.”

An Zheng opened it and looked at it, and found the whereabouts of Li Changlu during this period. It turned out that it was not just him who was staring at Li Changlu, but Jushangyuan was also watching him all the time.

An Zheng pointed at Xiao Qi and said: "My brother is short of a husband, so you can follow me for the time being. I can teach him other things, but not knowledge. I take care of your three meals a day and the place where you live, and I will pay you every month." How about your ten taels of silver as a reward?"

"Li Changlu."

Gu Chaotong sighed: "The villagers gave me a total of fourteen taels of silver, and I got fifteen taels of silver after selling my family property. Now the fourteen taels of silver that the folks have collected have not been touched. I thought that if I can use it, I will wait until I'll give it back to them when I go back. But even so... I was wrong. Regardless of whether the money was mine or collected by the villagers, I was wrong. The property was not mine but was saved by my deceased parents. I have already sold my property, which is unfilial. It is even more unfilial to gamble with this money."

The man clasped his fists: "Master An is really loyal, I accept it."

Zhang Yifu didn't know what to do. Mr. Zhuang Feifei heard that An Zheng was coming and walked to the door: "Mr. Zhang, take it. He is not short of money. One hundred thousand taels is not a big deal for him." . Last time we Jushangyuan sent most of the money to the frontier, and the store happened to have a lot of money. Apart from these stone shells, I would only be worth one hundred thousand taels if I sold him one more piece of information."

An Zheng: "You are the bitch..."

Zhang Yifu didn't know what to do. Mr. Zhuang Feifei heard that An Zheng was coming and walked to the door: "Mr. Zhang, take it. He is not short of money. One hundred thousand taels is not a big deal for him." . Last time we Jushangyuan sent most of the money to the frontier, and the store happened to have a lot of money. Apart from these stone shells, I would only be worth one hundred thousand taels if I sold him one more piece of information."

Du Shoushou came over and sighed: "You are so kind. Such a person is obviously fooled because of his stupidity. If he suffers a loss once, he will have a long memory."

An Zheng waved his hand: "Get out of here, by the way. You can cook bad food within a month and my people will guarantee you to make money. If your food doesn't taste good after a month, I will beat you every day, three times a day, and maybe a midnight snack."

Du Shoushou curled his lips: "There are people who pick up money and things, and there are people who pick up rags. You are the picker. I picked up Lang Jing a few days ago, and now I pick up Gu Chaotong. I don't know how many more I will pick up in the future."

"who?"

The man left quickly without daring to say another word.

Zhuang Feifei sighed and said: "Didn't you ask me to look for star-patterned meteorite for Xiaoliu'er a few days ago? That thing is a purple-grade thing, and a piece as big as a fingernail is worth a lot of money. If you want to find it, how can it be possible? Easy. But recently I got news that someone has it... and it seems that you are also very interested."

Gu Chaotong nodded: "I like reading and read all kinds of books, so I know a little about Feng Shui and physiognomy. But some books are very mysterious, so they are probably lies."

After the two of them went upstairs, Zhuang Feifei asked Hongluan to make tea. Hongluan knew that there was something important to discuss, so he left quickly after serving the tea. Before leaving, he glanced back at An Zheng, with a strange light in his eyes. An Zheng is an idiot. He can see through treasures at a glance and look at women like an idiot.

An Zheng said: "Don't be so polite. I'm in a good mood today so I won't hit anyone. You can collect a hundred taels of silver and give it to me. Then from today on, don't make messes or make money by deceiving people. If you can do it, just leave. If you can't do it, I'll help you think of a way. People like you can't be educated. The best way is to beat them to death. But people's lives depend on their parents. If I beat you to death, your parents won't live long. "

Gu Chaotong leaned forward slightly: "Thank you very much."

Zhang Yifu didn't know what to do. Mr. Zhuang Feifei heard that An Zheng was coming and walked to the door: "Mr. Zhang, take it. He is not short of money. One hundred thousand taels is not a big deal for him." . Last time we Jushangyuan sent most of the money to the frontier, and the store happened to have a lot of money. Apart from these stone shells, I would only be worth one hundred thousand taels if I sold him one more piece of information."

He took a tael of silver from An Zheng, then turned and left.

An Zheng put the forty taels of silver into the scholar's hand: "Idiot, use this money to stay in an inn and wait for the imperial examination. If you win, remember to be a good official. If you don't win, go to those bastards and start the exam." The store is a counting house.”

An Zheng asked: "Can you read faces?"

The scholar said: "I... can."

An Zheng said: "If you can get a piece of star-patterned meteorite iron as big as your thumb, I can build an alchemy furnace for Xiao Liu'er. It can be regarded as an artifact."

Zhang Yifu said: "These things... these are the things left over from the last battle in Tianji Palace, which is the stone shell of the stone spirit. This stone shell is extremely hard and cannot be broken unless it is a purple-grade artifact. Think about what happened that day , even if a strong man like Tan Song used a purple-grade artifact like Liufeng Dao, he could only cut a hole instead of completely splitting it. It is conceivable that no one paid attention to how strong the stone shell was after the battle. When I saw these broken stone shells, I found an opportunity to collect them all.”

The scholar said: "I... can."

Gu Chaotong leaned forward slightly: "Thank you very much."

"Tell me, what kind of news is worth a hundred thousand taels of silver?"

The man left quickly without daring to say another word.

Zhuang Feifei looked at An Zheng: "If there is no business matter or anything that needs to be discussed, you can't come to me?"

An Zheng put the forty taels of silver into the scholar's hand: "Idiot, use this money to stay in an inn and wait for the imperial examination. If you win, remember to be a good official. If you don't win, go to those bastards and start the exam." The store is a counting house.”

Then the ferocious expression on the corner of the man's mouth turned into a twitch: "An... Master An..."

The man was stunned and didn't understand what he meant.

An Zheng said: "Don't be so polite. I'm in a good mood today so I won't hit anyone. You can collect a hundred taels of silver and give it to me.

He took a tael of silver from An Zheng, then turned and left.

An Zheng asked again: "Where are you from?"

An Zheng: "You are the bitch..."

An Zheng smiled and said, "I would like to know what news is worth a hundred thousand taels."

Zhang Yifu, the big shopkeeper, has been in Jushangyuan for more than fifteen years and is highly respected. It is precisely because of him that the reputation of Jushangyuan will become bigger and bigger.

Zhuang Feifei looked at An Zheng: "If there is no business matter or anything that needs to be discussed, you can't come to me?"

An Zheng smiled: "Are you telling the truth?"

Zhang Yifu sighed: "No, so such a good thing is going to be wasted right before your eyes."

An Zheng's expression changed slightly and he shouted to the scholar, "What's your name?"

Zhuang Feifei asked: "It's called Qingzhai, are you still going to buy it?"

Zhuang Feifei sighed and said: "Didn't you ask me to look for star-patterned meteorite for Xiaoliu'er a few days ago? That thing is a purple-grade thing, and a piece as big as a fingernail is worth a lot of money. If you want to find it, how can it be possible? Easy. But recently I got news that someone has it... and it seems that you are also very interested."

Gu Chaotong said: "Because I was reluctant to spend money, I wanted to break the chess game just now because I thought I could win. I know it was probably a scam, but apart from studying, I only loved playing chess since I was a child, thinking I could solve it. "

An Zheng opened it and looked at it, and found the whereabouts of Li Changlu during this period. It turned out that it was not just him who was staring at Li Changlu, but Jushangyuan was also watching him all the time.

An Zheng smiled: "Are you telling the truth?"

The man who was arranging the mess was stunned for a moment, and then the ferocity on the corner of his mouth gradually became clear: "Who the hell are you?"

An Zheng smiled and replied: "My fucking name is An Zheng."

An Zheng put the forty taels of silver into the scholar's hand: "Idiot, use this money to stay in an inn and wait for the imperial examination. If you win, remember to be a good official. If you don't win, go to those bastards and start the exam." The store is a counting house.”

The scholar stopped, turned around and said, "My name is Gu Chaotong."

Zhuang Feifei said: "I just got the news. It is said that in order to assassinate King Yan and the Queen Mother, the gifts were all real good things, just to numb the vigilance of King Yan and the Queen Mother. Wasn't there a box at that time, saying that there were three things in it? It turns out that there really are some treasures. One of them is the Liufeng Dao, which is now in the hands of the Queen Mother. The other one is a piece of star-patterned meteorite about the size of a thumb, which is of inestimable value. , I don’t know.”

"According to the information I got, the queen mother gave the star-patterned meteorite iron to Li Changlu, and asked Li Changlu to find a way to sell it to continue building the Jinxiu Palace.

An Zheng opened it and looked at it, and found the whereabouts of Li Changlu during this period. It turned out that it was not just him who was staring at Li Changlu, but Jushangyuan was also watching him all the time.

An Zheng shrank back and said, "Yes, isn't this coming today?"

An Zheng smiled coquettishly: "Let's talk about the news."

An Zheng asked again: "Where are you from?"

An Zheng smiled and said: "We can't waste it, let's do this... I'll take the things away first, and I'll leave a deposit of 100,000 taels of silver for the store. If the armor can really be made, I think it won't be cheap for outsiders. Give it to my brother." Du Shaoshou. If it fails, this hundred thousand taels of silver will be my compensation to Jushangyuan."

Gu Chaotong said: "It's too much. Three meals a day and a place to live are enough. I don't want any money. I think your brother is very charming. He may be a great person in the future. If I can enlighten him as a professor, he can be considered as me." luck."

An Zheng shrank back and said, "Yes, isn't this coming today?"

The scholar replied: "From the southwest and southeast."

"Come with me."

An Zheng asked: "Can you read faces?"

The man was stunned and didn't understand what he meant.

An Zheng smiled and replied: "My fucking name is An Zheng."

An Zheng was silent for a while and then said: "Just looking at you, for the sake of saying sister."

An Zheng smiled coquettishly: "Let's talk about the news."

The man was stunned and didn't understand what he meant.

The man was stunned and didn't understand what he meant.

An Zheng said: "There are wars in the southeastern border every day, and the people are displaced and their lives are miserable. Even so, they scraped together dozens of taels of silver to send you to the capital to take the exam, but you spent one tael of it to solve the problem."

An Zheng asked: "Why?"

An Zheng was silent for a while and then said: "Just looking at you, for the sake of saying sister."

Gu Chaotong sighed: "The villagers gave me a total of fourteen taels of silver, and I got fifteen taels of silver after selling my family property. Now the fourteen taels of silver that the folks have collected have not been touched. I thought that if I can use it, I will wait until I'll give it back to them when I go back. But even so... I was wrong. Regardless of whether the money was mine or collected by the villagers, I was wrong. The property was not mine but was saved by my deceased parents. I have already sold my property, which is unfilial. It is even more unfilial to gamble with this money."

An Zheng took forty taels of silver from the man, but did not take the rest: "If you take all your silver, you will steal, rob, and harm others. I leave these for you, and use this For the money, rent a store outside Tianqizong and learn how to make snacks. I can see you coming in and out... Oh, by the way, almost all the stores outside Tianqizong are mine. I will rent them to you at a discount. A restaurant with a good location. Regardless of whether it’s delicious or not, the people from Tianqizong will support it for you.”

The man was stunned and didn't understand what he meant.

The three of them wandered around for a long time, allowing Xiao Qidao to recognize many places, and then found a restaurant for lunch. Then An Zheng asked Du Shaoshou to take Xiao Qidao back, and he went to Jushang Courtyard alone.

An Zheng thought this person was interesting: "Where do you live now?"

Gu Chaotong said: "Under the Ming'an Bridge."

An Zheng said: "Don't be so polite. I'm in a good mood today so I won't hit anyone. You can collect a hundred taels of silver and give it to me. Then from today on, don't make messes or make money by deceiving people. If you can do it, just leave. If you can't do it, I'll help you think of a way. People like you can't be educated. The best way is to beat them to death. But people's lives depend on their parents. If I beat you to death, your parents won't live long. "

Gu Chaotong said: "Under the Ming'an Bridge."

Zhuang Feifei sneered: "If nothing happens, will you come?"

An Zheng said: "Don't be so polite. I'm in a good mood today so I won't hit anyone. You can collect a hundred taels of silver and give it to me. Then from today on, don't make messes or make money by deceiving people. If you can do it, just leave. If you can't do it, I'll help you think of a way. People like you can't be educated. The best way is to beat them to death. But people's lives depend on their parents. If I beat you to death, your parents won't live long. "

An Zheng asked.

The scholar said: "I... can."

Zhang Yifu sighed: "No, so such a good thing is going to be wasted right before your eyes."

An Zheng said: "If you can get a piece of star-patterned meteorite iron as big as your thumb, I can build an alchemy furnace for Xiao Liu'er. It can be regarded as an artifact."

An Zheng said: "If you can get a piece of star-patterned meteorite iron as big as your thumb, I can build an alchemy furnace for Xiao Liu'er. It can be regarded as an artifact."

An Zheng asked: "Why?"

An Zheng pointed at Xiao Qi and said: "My brother is short of a husband, so you can follow me for the time being. I can teach him other things, but not knowledge. I take care of your three meals a day and the place where you live, and I will pay you every month." How about your ten taels of silver as a reward?"

The scholar replied: "From the southwest and southeast."

An Zheng said: "It doesn't necessarily have to be cut with a purple-grade artifact. If there is a master craftsman, it can certainly be made with a purple-grade cauldron. But I don't think there is such a master craftsman in the Yan Kingdom. "

An Zheng smiled and said: "We can't waste it, let's do this... I'll take the things away first, and I'll leave a deposit of 100,000 taels of silver for the store. If the armor can really be made, I think it won't be cheap for outsiders. Give it to my brother." Du Shaoshou. If it fails, this hundred thousand taels of silver will be my compensation to Jushangyuan."

He took a tael of silver from An Zheng, then turned and left.

An Zheng couldn't help laughing: "You are also upright. When you asked about going to Tianqi Sect, you told the concierge Lao Huo that I asked you to go. My name is An Zheng, and you will live with me from now on until the imperial examination. Exam begins."

An Zheng put down the banknote: "I'm not short of money. Friendship belongs to friendship, and things belong to things."

An Zheng is now the most distinguished guest of Jushang Courtyard, and he can no longer even be called a guest. So when the waiter at the door of Jushangyuan saw An Zheng, he said hello from afar. An Zheng joked with the guy a few times, and then went to see Zhang Yifu first.

An Zheng shook his head: "You deceivers are already down and out...Give me half."

Gu Chaotong shook his head: "No."

An Zheng was silent for a while and then said: "Just looking at you, for the sake of saying sister."

"What's wrong?"

An Zheng smiled: "Are you telling the truth?"

An Zheng shrank back and said, "Yes, isn't this coming today?"

Zhuang Feifei said: "I just got the news.

Zhang Yifu didn't know what to do. Mr. Zhuang Feifei heard that An Zheng was coming and walked to the door: "Mr. Zhang, take it. He is not short of money.

"Come with me."

"Come with me."

Gu Chaotong said: "It's too much. Three meals a day and a place to live are enough. I don't want any money. I think your brother is very charming. He may be a great person in the future. If I can enlighten him as a professor, he can be considered as me." luck."

An Zheng asked: "Can you read faces?"

The man didn't even dare to say anything. Several people gathered around and took out only seventy or eighty taels of silver: "I really can't get it all together. How about you wait and I can borrow some?"

An Zheng asked: "Can you read faces?"

"Li Changlu."

An Zheng shrank back and said, "Yes, isn't this coming today?"

An Zheng pointed at Xiao Qi and said: "My brother is short of a husband, so you can follow me for the time being. I can teach him other things, but not knowledge. I take care of your three meals a day and the place where you live, and I will pay you every month." How about your ten taels of silver as a reward?"

It is said that in order to assassinate King Yan and the Queen Mother, the gifts were all real good things, just to numb the vigilance of King Yan and the Queen Mother. Wasn't there a box at that time, saying that there were three things in it? It turns out that there really are some treasures. One of them is the Liufeng Dao, which is now in the hands of the Queen Mother. The other one is a piece of star-patterned meteorite about the size of a thumb, which is of inestimable value. , I don’t know.”

The man who was arranging the mess was stunned for a moment, and then the ferocity on the corner of his mouth gradually became clear: "Who the hell are you?"

Zhang Yifu said: "These things... these are the things left over from the last battle in Tianji Palace, which is the stone shell of the stone spirit. This stone shell is extremely hard and cannot be broken unless it is a purple-grade artifact. Think about what happened that day , even if a strong man like Tan Song used a purple-grade artifact like Liufeng Dao, he could only cut a hole instead of completely splitting it. It is conceivable that no one paid attention to how strong the stone shell was after the battle. When I saw these broken stone shells, I found an opportunity to collect them all.”

The scholar said: "I... can."

Gu Chaotong leaned forward slightly: "Thank you very much."

An Zheng said: "If you can get a piece of star-patterned meteorite iron as big as your thumb, I can build an alchemy furnace for Xiao Liu'er. It can be regarded as an artifact."

An Zheng smiled coquettishly: "Let's talk about the news."

An Zheng waved his hand: "Get out of here, by the way. You can cook bad food within a month and my people will guarantee you to make money. If your food doesn't taste good after a month, I will beat you every day, three times a day, and maybe a midnight snack."

Du Shoushou came over and sighed: "You are so kind. Such a person is obviously fooled because of his stupidity. If he suffers a loss once, he will have a long memory."

Gu Chaotong nodded: "I like reading and read all kinds of books, so I know a little about Feng Shui and physiognomy. But some books are very mysterious, so they are probably lies."

An Zheng said: "It doesn't necessarily have to be cut with a purple-grade artifact. If there is a master craftsman, it can certainly be made with a purple-grade cauldron. But I don't think there is such a master craftsman in the Yan Kingdom. "

Zhuang Feifei asked: "Then what are you doing here this time?"

An Zheng said: "There are wars in the southeastern border every day, and the people are displaced and their lives are miserable. Even so, they scraped together dozens of taels of silver to send you to the capital to take the exam, but you spent one tael of it to solve the problem."

An Zheng asked: "Can you read faces?"

An Zheng smiled: "Are you telling the truth?"

Zhuang Feifei smiled: "You dare to say that, a sub-artifact... Those who make alchemy will go crazy if they can get a piece as big as a fingernail. Even if the alchemy furnace only has 1% of the star pattern iron, those who are making alchemy In human terms, it can be called a divine weapon, but in your eyes, a pill furnace made of pure star-patterned meteorite is called a divine weapon."

An Zheng smiled: "Are you telling the truth?"

An Zheng said: "Xiaoqi Dao just lacks a clerk. I can teach him how to practice, but he is really not very good in this area. This scholar seems to be okay, just keep him."

Zhuang Feifei smiled: "You dare to say that, a sub-artifact... Those who make alchemy will go crazy if they can get a piece as big as a fingernail.

Gu Chaotong nodded: "I like reading and read all kinds of books, so I know a little about Feng Shui and physiognomy. But some books are very mysterious, so they are probably lies."

An Zheng smiled coquettishly: "Let's talk about the news."

An Zheng said: "Tell me what the auction house is called."

Du Shoushou curled his lips: "There are people who pick up money and things, and there are people who pick up rags. You are the picker. I picked up Lang Jing a few days ago, and now I pick up Gu Chaotong. I don't know how many more I will pick up in the future."

Gu Chaotong said: "Under the Ming'an Bridge."

An Zheng asked: "Can you read faces?"

"Come with me."

An Zheng: "You are the bitch..."

"What's wrong?"

"What's wrong?"

An Zheng said: "It doesn't necessarily have to be cut with a purple-grade artifact. If there is a master craftsman, it can certainly be made with a purple-grade cauldron. But I don't think there is such a master craftsman in the Yan Kingdom. "

Zhuang Feifei said: "I just got the news.

The other one is a piece of star-patterned meteorite about the size of a thumb, which is of inestimable value. , I don’t know.”

Then the ferocious expression on the corner of the man's mouth turned into a twitch: "An... Master An..."

Zhuang Feifei asked: "Then what are you doing here this time?"

An Zheng shook his head: "You deceivers are already down and out...Give me half."

An Zheng said: "It doesn't necessarily have to be cut with a purple-grade artifact. If there is a master craftsman, it can certainly be made with a purple-grade cauldron. But I don't think there is such a master craftsman in the Yan Kingdom. "

Du Shoshou laughed: "It's your uncle's."

Gu Chaotong shook his head: "No."

An Zheng stood up and prepared to leave.

He took a tael of silver from An Zheng, then turned and left.

An Zheng asked.

An Zheng asked again: "Where are you from?"

The scholar stopped, turned around and said, "My name is Gu Chaotong."

An Zheng is now the most distinguished guest of Jushang Courtyard, and he can no longer even be called a guest. So when the waiter at the door of Jushangyuan saw An Zheng, he said hello from afar. An Zheng joked with the guy a few times, and then went to see Zhang Yifu first.

An Zheng said: "If you can get a piece of star-patterned meteorite iron as big as your thumb, I can build an alchemy furnace for Xiao Liu'er. It can be regarded as an artifact."

The three of them wandered around for a long time, allowing Xiao Qidao to recognize many places, and then found a restaurant for lunch. Then An Zheng asked Du Shaoshou to take Xiao Qidao back, and he went to Jushang Courtyard alone.

Du Shoushou curled his lips: "There are people who pick up money and things, and there are people who pick up rags. You are the picker. I picked up Lang Jing a few days ago, and now I pick up Gu Chaotong. I don't know how many more I will pick up in the future."

An Zheng said: "There are wars in the southeastern border every day, and the people are displaced and their lives are miserable. Even so, they scraped together dozens of taels of silver to send you to the capital to take the exam, but you spent one tael of it to solve the problem."

An Zheng shook his head: "You deceivers are already down and out...Give me half."

Seeing An Zheng coming, Zhang Yifu stood up quickly: "I was worried, but the savior is here."

The man was stunned and didn't understand what he meant.

Zhuang Feifei asked: "Then what are you doing here this time?"

An Zheng smiled and said: "We can't waste it, let's do this... I'll take the things away first, and I'll leave a deposit of 100,000 taels of silver for the store. If the armor can really be made, I think it won't be cheap for outsiders. Give it to my brother." Du Shaoshou. If it fails, this hundred thousand taels of silver will be my compensation to Jushangyuan."

An Zheng is now the most distinguished guest of Jushang Courtyard, and he can no longer even be called a guest. So when the waiter at the door of Jushangyuan saw An Zheng, he said hello from afar. An Zheng joked with the guy a few times, and then went to see Zhang Yifu first.

"Thank you, Mr. An!"

Zhuang Feifei glanced at An Zheng, then walked up to the second floor with a gentle swing. An Zheng walked behind Zhuang Feifei and felt that the woman's walking posture was extremely beautiful.

The three of them wandered around for a long time, allowing Xiao Qidao to recognize many places, and then found a restaurant for lunch. Then An Zheng asked Du Shaoshou to take Xiao Qidao back, and he went to Jushang Courtyard alone.

An Zheng is now the most distinguished guest of Jushang Courtyard, and he can no longer even be called a guest. So when the waiter at the door of Jushangyuan saw An Zheng, he said hello from afar. An Zheng joked with the guy a few times, and then went to see Zhang Yifu first.

The scholar replied: "From the southwest and southeast."

An Zheng smiled and said, "I would like to know what news is worth a hundred thousand taels."

Zhang Yifu, the big shopkeeper, has been in Jushangyuan for more than fifteen years and is highly respected. It is precisely because of him that the reputation of Jushangyuan will become bigger and bigger.

An Zheng asked.

Du Shoushou came over and sighed: "You are so kind. Such a person is obviously fooled because of his stupidity. If he suffers a loss once, he will have a long memory."

The man who was arranging the mess was stunned for a moment, and then the ferocity on the corner of his mouth gradually became clear: "Who the hell are you?"

Seeing An Zheng coming, Zhang Yifu stood up quickly: "I was worried, but the savior is here."

An Zheng smiled and said, "I would like to know what news is worth a hundred thousand taels."

The man left quickly without daring to say another word.

An Zheng put down the banknote: "I'm not short of money. Friendship belongs to friendship, and things belong to things."

Gu Chaotong shook his head: "No."

The scholar stopped, turned around and said, "My name is Gu Chaotong."

Zhuang Feifei looked at An Zheng: "If there is no business matter or anything that needs to be discussed, you can't come to me?"

An Zheng took forty taels of silver from the man, but did not take the rest: "If you take all your silver, you will steal, rob, and harm others. I leave these for you, and use this For the money, rent a store outside Tianqizong and learn how to make snacks. I can see you coming in and out... Oh, by the way, almost all the stores outside Tianqizong are mine. I will rent them to you at a discount. A restaurant with a good location. Regardless of whether it’s delicious or not, the people from Tianqizong will support it for you.”

This old man was very fond of An Zheng and had similar interests. He regarded An Zheng as a good friend. Friendship over the years, that's it.

Zhuang Feifei hummed: "Truthfully."

Du Shoushou curled his lips: "There are people who pick up money and things, and there are people who pick up rags. You are the picker. I picked up Lang Jing a few days ago, and now I pick up Gu Chaotong. I don't know how many more I will pick up in the future."

"Thank you, Mr. An!"

The man didn't even dare to say anything. Several people gathered around and took out only seventy or eighty taels of silver: "I really can't get it all together. How about you wait and I can borrow some?"

"What's wrong?"

An Zheng said: "Xiaoqi Dao just lacks a clerk. I can teach him how to practice, but he is really not very good in this area. This scholar seems to be okay, just keep him."

"According to the information I got, the queen mother gave the star-patterned meteorite iron to Li Changlu, and asked Li Changlu to find a way to sell it to continue building the Jinxiu Palace. Li Changlu did not come to Jushangyuan, but went to another auction house. It was opened by people from Daxi in Fanggu City."

An Zheng was pulled into the room by Zhang Yifu and got used to the slightly dim light in the room.

Zhuang Feifei hummed: "Truthfully."

Gu Chaotong shook his head: "No."

Zhang Yifu said: "These things... these are the things left over from the last battle in Tianji Palace, which is the stone shell of the stone spirit. This stone shell is extremely hard and cannot be broken unless it is a purple-grade artifact. Think about what happened that day , even if a strong man like Tan Song used a purple-grade artifact like Liufeng Dao, he could only cut a hole instead of completely splitting it. It is conceivable that no one paid attention to how strong the stone shell was after the battle. When I saw these broken stone shells, I found an opportunity to collect them all.”

An Zheng said: "There are wars in the southeastern border every day, and the people are displaced and their lives are miserable. Even so, they scraped together dozens of taels of silver to send you to the capital to take the exam, but you spent one tael of it to solve the problem."

An Zheng's expression changed slightly and he shouted to the scholar, "What's your name?"

Zhuang Feifei asked: "Then what are you doing here this time?"

The scholar stopped, turned around and said, "My name is Gu Chaotong."

Zhuang Feifei looked at An Zheng: "If there is no business matter or anything that needs to be discussed, you can't come to me?"

He took a tael of silver from An Zheng, then turned and left.

"Tell me, what kind of news is worth a hundred thousand taels of silver?"

The man left quickly without daring to say another word.

Zhang Yifu looked at the gravel and said: "I thought that once this thing was finished, it would be at least a piece of gold armor, and if it was sold, it would make a lot of money. But the problem we are facing now is how to process these gravels. Come out. If you can't cut through ordinary things, where can you find the purple-grade artifact?"

Du Shoushou curled his lips: "There are people who pick up money and things, and there are people who pick up rags. You are the picker. I picked up Lang Jing a few days ago, and now I pick up Gu Chaotong. I don't know how many more I will pick up in the future."

An Zheng asked again: "Where are you from?"

An Zheng was pulled into the room by Zhang Yifu and got used to the slightly dim light in the room.

An Zheng said: "It doesn't necessarily have to be cut with a purple-grade artifact. If there is a master craftsman, it can certainly be made with a purple-grade cauldron. But I don't think there is such a master craftsman in the Yan Kingdom. "

An Zheng asked.

An Zheng asked: "Why?"

An Zheng said: "Don't be so polite. I'm in a good mood today so I won't hit anyone. You can collect a hundred taels of silver and give it to me. Then from today on, don't make messes or make money by deceiving people. If you can do it, just leave. If you can't do it, I'll help you think of a way. People like you can't be educated. The best way is to beat them to death. But people's lives depend on their parents. If I beat you to death, your parents won't live long. "

Zhang Yifu sighed: "No, so such a good thing is going to be wasted right before your eyes."

Gu Chaotong shook his head: "No."

The man who was arranging the mess was stunned for a moment, and then the ferocity on the corner of his mouth gradually became clear: "Who the hell are you?"

Du Shoushou curled his lips: "There are people who pick up money and things, and there are people who pick up rags. You are the picker. I picked up Lang Jing a few days ago, and now I pick up Gu Chaotong. I don't know how many more I will pick up in the future."

An Zheng said: "It doesn't necessarily have to be cut with a purple-grade artifact. If there is a master craftsman, it can certainly be made with a purple-grade cauldron. But I don't think there is such a master craftsman in the Yan Kingdom. "

After the two of them went upstairs, Zhuang Feifei asked Hongluan to make tea. Hongluan knew that there was something important to discuss, so he left quickly after serving the tea. Before leaving, he glanced back at An Zheng, with a strange light in his eyes. An Zheng is an idiot. He can see through treasures at a glance and look at women like an idiot.

An Zheng's expression changed slightly and he shouted to the scholar, "What's your name?"

Gu Chaotong said: "Because I was reluctant to spend money, I wanted to break the chess game just now because I thought I could win. I know it was probably a scam, but apart from studying, I only loved playing chess since I was a child, thinking I could solve it. "

Zhang Yifu waved his hands repeatedly: "You can just take the things. You must not keep the money."

An Zheng was silent for a while and then said: "Just looking at you, for the sake of saying sister."

Seeing An Zheng coming, Zhang Yifu stood up quickly: "I was worried, but the savior is here."

Gu Chaotong leaned forward slightly: "Thank you very much."

An Zheng put down the banknote: "I'm not short of money. Friendship belongs to friendship, and things belong to things."

Zhuang Feifei hummed: "Truthfully."

An Zheng pointed at Xiao Qi and said: "My brother is short of a husband, so you can follow me for the time being. I can teach him other things, but not knowledge. I take care of your three meals a day and the place where you live, and I will pay you every month." How about your ten taels of silver as a reward?"

An Zheng smiled and replied: "My fucking name is An Zheng."

After the two of them went upstairs, Zhuang Feifei asked Hongluan to make tea. Hongluan knew that there was something important to discuss, so he left quickly after serving the tea. Before leaving, he glanced back at An Zheng, with a strange light in his eyes. An Zheng is an idiot. He can see through treasures at a glance and look at women like an idiot.

Zhuang Feifei sneered: "If nothing happens, will you come?"

Zhang Yifu didn't know what to do. Mr. Zhuang Feifei heard that An Zheng was coming and walked to the door: "Mr. Zhang, take it. He is not short of money. One hundred thousand taels is not a big deal for him." . Last time we Jushangyuan sent most of the money to the frontier, and the store happened to have a lot of money. Apart from these stone shells, I would only be worth one hundred thousand taels if I sold him one more piece of information."

Gu Chaotong shook his head: "No."

The three of them wandered around for a long time, allowing Xiao Qidao to recognize many places, and then found a restaurant for lunch. Then An Zheng asked Du Shaoshou to take Xiao Qidao back, and he went to Jushang Courtyard alone.

An Zheng smiled and said, "I would like to know what news is worth a hundred thousand taels."

An Zheng opened it and looked at it, and found the whereabouts of Li Changlu during this period. It turned out that it was not just him who was staring at Li Changlu, but Jushangyuan was also watching him all the time.

Gu Chaotong shook his head: "No."

Zhuang Feifei hummed: "Truthfully."

"who?"

"Come with me."

The man clasped his fists: "Master An is really loyal, I accept it."

Zhang Yifu looked at the gravel and said: "I thought that once this thing was finished, it would be at least a piece of gold armor, and if it was sold, it would make a lot of money. But the problem we are facing now is how to process these gravels. Come out. If you can't cut through ordinary things, where can you find the purple-grade artifact?"

An Zheng shook his head: "I can't afford it... If this thing belongs to someone else, of course I can only sell it. But if this thing is in Li Changlu's hands, there is no need to buy it."

An Zheng smiled and said, "I would like to know what news is worth a hundred thousand taels."

Zhuang Feifei glanced at An Zheng, then walked up to the second floor with a gentle swing. An Zheng walked behind Zhuang Feifei and felt that the woman's walking posture was extremely beautiful.

Apart from these stone shells, I would only be worth one hundred thousand taels if I sold him one more piece of information."

"Tell me, what kind of news is worth a hundred thousand taels of silver?"

Zhuang Feifei took out a piece of paper from her sleeve and handed it to An Zheng: "You can use this."

An Zheng is now the most distinguished guest of Jushang Courtyard, and he can no longer even be called a guest. So when the waiter at the door of Jushangyuan saw An Zheng, he said hello from afar. An Zheng joked with the guy a few times, and then went to see Zhang Yifu first.

Zhuang Feifei sighed and said: "Didn't you ask me to look for star-patterned meteorite for Xiaoliu'er a few days ago? That thing is a purple-grade thing, and a piece as big as a fingernail is worth a lot of money. If you want to find it, how can it be possible? Easy. But recently I got news that someone has it... and it seems that you are also very interested."

An Zheng thought this person was interesting: "Where do you live now?"

An Zheng took forty taels of silver from the man, but did not take the rest: "If you take all your silver, you will steal, rob, and harm others. I leave these for you, and use this For the money, rent a store outside Tianqizong and learn how to make snacks. I can see you coming in and out... Oh, by the way, almost all the stores outside Tianqizong are mine. I will rent them to you at a discount. A restaurant with a good location. Regardless of whether it’s delicious or not, the people from Tianqizong will support it for you.”

The scholar said: "I... can."

An Zheng couldn't help laughing: "You are also upright. When you asked about going to Tianqi Sect, you told the concierge Lao Huo that I asked you to go. My name is An Zheng, and you will live with me from now on until the imperial examination. Exam begins."

An Zheng asked.

Zhuang Feifei took out a piece of paper from her sleeve and handed it to An Zheng: "You can use this."

An Zheng smiled and said: "We can't waste it, let's do this... I'll take the things away first, and I'll leave a deposit of 100,000 taels of silver for the store. If the armor can really be made, I think it won't be cheap for outsiders. Give it to my brother." Du Shaoshou. If it fails, this hundred thousand taels of silver will be my compensation to Jushangyuan."

An Zheng smiled and said: "We can't waste it, let's do this... I'll take the things away first, and I'll leave a deposit of 100,000 taels of silver for the store.

An Zheng's expression changed slightly and he shouted to the scholar, "What's your name?"

This old man was very fond of An Zheng and had similar interests. He regarded An Zheng as a good friend. Friendship over the years, that's it.

Zhuang Feifei looked at An Zheng: "If there is no business matter or anything that needs to be discussed, you can't come to me?"

An Zheng said: "If you can get a piece of star-patterned meteorite iron as big as your thumb, I can build an alchemy furnace for Xiao Liu'er. It can be regarded as an artifact."

Zhuang Feifei glanced at An Zheng, then walked up to the second floor with a gentle swing. An Zheng walked behind Zhuang Feifei and felt that the woman's walking posture was extremely beautiful.

An Zheng was pulled into the room by Zhang Yifu and got used to the slightly dim light in the room.

An Zheng stood up and prepared to leave.

"Tell me, what kind of news is worth a hundred thousand taels of silver?"

An Zheng shrank back and said, "Yes, isn't this coming today?"

An Zheng said: "Xiaoqi Dao just lacks a clerk. I can teach him how to practice, but he is really not very good in this area. This scholar seems to be okay, just keep him."

Gu Chaotong sighed: "The villagers gave me a total of fourteen taels of silver, and I got fifteen taels of silver after selling my family property. Now the fourteen taels of silver that the folks have collected have not been touched. I thought that if I can use it, I will wait until I'll give it back to them when I go back. But even so... I was wrong. Regardless of whether the money was mine or collected by the villagers, I was wrong. The property was not mine but was saved by my deceased parents. I have already sold my property, which is unfilial. It is even more unfilial to gamble with this money."

He took a tael of silver from An Zheng, then turned and left.

An Zheng said: "If you can get a piece of star-patterned meteorite iron as big as your thumb, I can build an alchemy furnace for Xiao Liu'er. It can be regarded as an artifact."

An Zheng smiled: "Are you telling the truth?"

An Zheng was pulled into the room by Zhang Yifu and got used to the slightly dim light in the room.

Gu Chaotong shook his head: "No."

Zhuang Feifei sneered: "If nothing happens, will you come?"

An Zheng asked.

An Zheng thought this person was interesting: "Where do you live now?"

Zhuang Feifei glanced at An Zheng, then walked up to the second floor with a gentle swing. An Zheng walked behind Zhuang Feifei and felt that the woman's walking posture was extremely beautiful.

The scholar replied: "From the southwest and southeast."

Gu Chaotong sighed: "The villagers gave me a total of fourteen taels of silver, and I got fifteen taels of silver after selling my family property. Now the fourteen taels of silver that the folks have collected have not been touched. I thought that if I can use it, I will wait until I'll give it back to them when I go back. But even so...

I have already sold my property, which is unfilial. It is even more unfilial to gamble with this money."

"Thank you, Mr. An!"

An Zheng smiled coquettishly: "Let's talk about the news."

Zhang Yifu waved his hands repeatedly: "You can just take the things. You must not keep the money."

An Zheng shrank back and said, "Yes, isn't this coming today?"

The scholar stopped, turned around and said, "My name is Gu Chaotong."

An Zheng shook his head: "You deceivers are already down and out...Give me half."

An Zheng shook his head: "You deceivers are already down and out...Give me half."

Zhuang Feifei sighed and said: "Didn't you ask me to look for star-patterned meteorite for Xiaoliu'er a few days ago? That thing is a purple-grade thing, and a piece as big as a fingernail is worth a lot of money. If you want to find it, how can it be possible? Easy. But recently I got news that someone has it... and it seems that you are also very interested."

An Zheng put the forty taels of silver into the scholar's hand: "Idiot, use this money to stay in an inn and wait for the imperial examination. If you win, remember to be a good official. If you don't win, go to those bastards and start the exam." The store is a counting house.”

"Li Changlu."

An Zheng smiled coquettishly: "Let's talk about the news."

Zhuang Feifei said: "I just got the news. It is said that in order to assassinate King Yan and the Queen Mother, the gifts were all real good things, just to numb the vigilance of King Yan and the Queen Mother. Wasn't there a box at that time, saying that there were three things in it? It turns out that there really are some treasures. One of them is the Liufeng Dao, which is now in the hands of the Queen Mother. The other one is a piece of star-patterned meteorite about the size of a thumb, which is of inestimable value. , I don’t know.”

"who?"

An Zheng opened it and looked at it, and found the whereabouts of Li Changlu during this period. It turned out that it was not just him who was staring at Li Changlu, but Jushangyuan was also watching him all the time.

An Zheng pointed at Xiao Qi and said: "My brother is short of a husband, so you can follow me for the time being. I can teach him other things, but not knowledge. I take care of your three meals a day and the place where you live, and I will pay you every month." How about your ten taels of silver as a reward?"

Gu Chaotong nodded: "I like reading and read all kinds of books, so I know a little about Feng Shui and physiognomy. But some books are very mysterious, so they are probably lies."

The scholar replied: "From the southwest and southeast."

"Li Changlu."

An Zheng shook his head: "You deceivers are already down and out...Give me half."

Du Shoushou came over and sighed: "You are so kind. Such a person is obviously fooled because of his stupidity. If he suffers a loss once, he will have a long memory."

Zhuang Feifei said: "I just got the news. It is said that in order to assassinate King Yan and the Queen Mother, the gifts were all real good things, just to numb the vigilance of King Yan and the Queen Mother. Wasn't there a box at that time, saying that there were three things in it? It turns out that there really are some treasures. One of them is the Liufeng Dao, which is now in the hands of the Queen Mother. The other one is a piece of star-patterned meteorite about the size of a thumb, which is of inestimable value. , I don’t know.”

After the two of them went upstairs, Zhuang Feifei asked Hongluan to make tea. Hongluan knew that there was something important to discuss, so he left quickly after serving the tea. Before leaving, he glanced back at An Zheng, with a strange light in his eyes. An Zheng is an idiot. He can see through treasures at a glance and look at women like an idiot.

An Zheng shook his head: "I can't afford it... If this thing belongs to someone else, of course I can only sell it. But if this thing is in Li Changlu's hands, there is no need to buy it."

Zhuang Feifei smiled: "You dare to say that, a sub-artifact... Those who make alchemy will go crazy if they can get a piece as big as a fingernail. Even if the alchemy furnace only has 1% of the star pattern iron, those who are making alchemy In human terms, it can be called a divine weapon, but in your eyes, a pill furnace made of pure star-patterned meteorite is called a divine weapon."

An Zheng asked again: "Where are you from?"

"According to the information I got, the queen mother gave the star-patterned meteorite iron to Li Changlu, and asked Li Changlu to find a way to sell it to continue building the Jinxiu Palace. Li Changlu did not come to Jushangyuan, but went to another auction house. It was opened by people from Daxi in Fanggu City."

The man left quickly without daring to say another word.

An Zheng smiled: "Are you telling the truth?"

Du Shoshou laughed: "It's your uncle's."

Zhuang Feifei took out a piece of paper from her sleeve and handed it to An Zheng: "You can use this."

An Zheng: "You are the bitch..."

The man who was arranging the mess was stunned for a moment, and then the ferocity on the corner of his mouth gradually became clear: "Who the hell are you?"

An Zheng said: "If you can get a piece of star-patterned meteorite iron as big as your thumb, I can build an alchemy furnace for Xiao Liu'er. It can be regarded as an artifact."

An Zheng stood up and prepared to leave.

An Zheng smiled and replied: "My fucking name is An Zheng."

Zhuang Feifei asked: "Then what are you doing here this time?"

Zhuang Feifei took out a piece of paper from her sleeve and handed it to An Zheng: "You can use this."

Zhuang Feifei looked at An Zheng: "If there is no business matter or anything that needs to be discussed, you can't come to me?"

An Zheng asked again: "Where are you from?"

Zhuang Feifei smiled: "You dare to say that, a sub-artifact... Those who make alchemy will go crazy if they can get a piece as big as a fingernail. Even if the alchemy furnace only has 1% of the star pattern iron, those who are making alchemy In human terms, it can be called a divine weapon, but in your eyes, a pill furnace made of pure star-patterned meteorite is called a divine weapon."

"Tell me, what kind of news is worth a hundred thousand taels of silver?"

An Zheng is now the most distinguished guest of Jushang Courtyard, and he can no longer even be called a guest. So when the waiter at the door of Jushangyuan saw An Zheng, he said hello from afar. An Zheng joked with the guy a few times, and then went to see Zhang Yifu first.

"Tell me, what kind of news is worth a hundred thousand taels of silver?"

An Zheng thought this person was interesting: "Where do you live now?"

"Thanks."

"What's wrong?"

Zhuang Feifei hummed: "Truthfully."

An Zheng said: "Tell me what the auction house is called."

Zhang Yifu, the big shopkeeper, has been in Jushangyuan for more than fifteen years and is highly respected. It is precisely because of him that the reputation of Jushangyuan will become bigger and bigger.

"Thank you, Mr. An!"

An Zheng smiled coquettishly: "Let's talk about the news."

The man who was arranging the mess was stunned for a moment, and then the ferocity on the corner of his mouth gradually became clear: "Who the hell are you?"

Zhang Yifu sighed: "No, so such a good thing is going to be wasted right before your eyes."

Zhuang Feifei took out a piece of paper from her sleeve and handed it to An Zheng: "You can use this."

Zhuang Feifei asked: "It's called Qingzhai, are you still going to buy it?"

An Zheng smiled and said: "We can't waste it, let's do this... I'll take the things away first, and I'll leave a deposit of 100,000 taels of silver for the store. If the armor can really be made, I think it won't be cheap for outsiders. Give it to my brother." Du Shaoshou. If it fails, this hundred thousand taels of silver will be my compensation to Jushangyuan."

An Zheng: "You are the bitch..."

The scholar said: "I... can."

An Zheng shook his head: "I can't afford it... If this thing belongs to someone else, of course I can only sell it. But if this thing is in Li Changlu's hands, there is no need to buy it."

An Zheng asked again: "Where are you from?"

An Zheng said: "Don't be so polite. I'm in a good mood today so I won't hit anyone. You can collect a hundred taels of silver and give it to me. Then from today on, don't make messes or make money by deceiving people. If you can do it, just leave. If you can't do it, I'll help you think of a way. People like you can't be educated. The best way is to beat them to death. But people's lives depend on their parents. If I beat you to death, your parents won't live long. "

Then the ferocious expression on the corner of the man's mouth turned into a twitch: "An... Master An..."

Zhang Yifu looked at the gravel and said: "I thought that once this thing was finished, it would be at least a piece of gold armor, and if it was sold, it would make a lot of money. But the problem we are facing now is how to process these gravels. Come out. If you can't cut through ordinary things, where can you find the purple-grade artifact?"

Zhuang Feifei took out a piece of paper from her sleeve and handed it to An Zheng: "You can use this."

Zhuang Feifei said: "I just got the news. It is said that in order to assassinate King Yan and the Queen Mother, the gifts were all real good things, just to numb the vigilance of King Yan and the Queen Mother. Wasn't there a box at that time, saying that there were three things in it? It turns out that there really are some treasures. One of them is the Liufeng Dao, which is now in the hands of the Queen Mother. The other one is a piece of star-patterned meteorite about the size of a thumb, which is of inestimable value. , I don’t know.”

Gu Chaotong leaned forward slightly: "Thank you very much."

Zhuang Feifei asked: "It's called Qingzhai, are you still going to buy it?"

An Zheng opened it and looked at it, and found the whereabouts of Li Changlu during this period. It turned out that it was not just him who was staring at Li Changlu, but Jushangyuan was also watching him all the time.

Zhang Yifu looked at the gravel and said: "I thought that once this thing was finished, it would be at least a piece of gold armor, and if it was sold, it would make a lot of money.

Li Changlu did not come to Jushangyuan, but went to another auction house. It was opened by people from Daxi in Fanggu City."

Gu Chaotong said: "It's too much. Three meals a day and a place to live are enough. I don't want any money. I think your brother is very charming. He may be a great person in the future. If I can enlighten him as a professor, he can be considered as me." luck."

The man didn't even dare to say anything. Several people gathered around and took out only seventy or eighty taels of silver: "I really can't get it all together. How about you wait and I can borrow some?"

The three of them wandered around for a long time, allowing Xiao Qidao to recognize many places, and then found a restaurant for lunch. Then An Zheng asked Du Shaoshou to take Xiao Qidao back, and he went to Jushang Courtyard alone.

"Thanks."

Zhang Yifu didn't know what to do. Mr. Zhuang Feifei heard that An Zheng was coming and walked to the door: "Mr. Zhang, take it. He is not short of money. One hundred thousand taels is not a big deal for him." . Last time we Jushangyuan sent most of the money to the frontier, and the store happened to have a lot of money. Apart from these stone shells, I would only be worth one hundred thousand taels if I sold him one more piece of information."

The man was stunned and didn't understand what he meant.

An Zheng put down the banknote: "I'm not short of money. Friendship belongs to friendship, and things belong to things."

An Zheng waved his hand: "Get out of here, by the way. You can cook bad food within a month and my people will guarantee you to make money. If your food doesn't taste good after a month, I will beat you every day, three times a day, and maybe a midnight snack."

An Zheng opened it and looked at it, and found the whereabouts of Li Changlu during this period. It turned out that it was not just him who was staring at Li Changlu, but Jushangyuan was also watching him all the time.

An Zheng smiled and replied: "My fucking name is An Zheng."

The scholar said: "I... can."

An Zheng stood up and prepared to leave.

Gu Chaotong leaned forward slightly: "Thank you very much."

An Zheng took forty taels of silver from the man, but did not take the rest: "If you take all your silver, you will steal, rob, and harm others. I leave these for you, and use this For the money, rent a store outside Tianqizong and learn how to make snacks. I can see you coming in and out... Oh, by the way, almost all the stores outside Tianqizong are mine. I will rent them to you at a discount. A restaurant with a good location. Regardless of whether it’s delicious or not, the people from Tianqizong will support it for you.”

"Li Changlu."

An Zheng asked: "Why?"

Zhuang Feifei said: "I just got the news. It is said that in order to assassinate King Yan and the Queen Mother, the gifts were all real good things, just to numb the vigilance of King Yan and the Queen Mother. Wasn't there a box at that time, saying that there were three things in it? It turns out that there really are some treasures.

Zhuang Feifei asked: "Then what are you doing here this time?"

Gu Chaotong said: "It's too much. Three meals a day and a place to live are enough. I don't want any money. I think your brother is very charming. He may be a great person in the future. If I can enlighten him as a professor, he can be considered as me." luck."

An Zheng smiled: "Are you telling the truth?"

He took a tael of silver from An Zheng, then turned and left.

Zhang Yifu waved his hands repeatedly: "You can just take the things. You must not keep the money."

Zhuang Feifei hummed: "Truthfully."

"What's wrong?"

"Tell me, what kind of news is worth a hundred thousand taels of silver?"

An Zheng was silent for a while and then said: "Just looking at you, for the sake of saying sister."

An Zheng put the forty taels of silver into the scholar's hand: "Idiot, use this money to stay in an inn and wait for the imperial examination. If you win, remember to be a good official. If you don't win, go to those bastards and start the exam." The store is a counting house.”

An Zheng couldn't help laughing: "You are also upright. When you asked about going to Tianqi Sect, you told the concierge Lao Huo that I asked you to go. My name is An Zheng, and you will live with me from now on until the imperial examination. Exam begins."

Zhuang Feifei sighed and said: "Didn't you ask me to look for star-patterned meteorite for Xiaoliu'er a few days ago? That thing is a purple-grade thing, and a piece as big as a fingernail is worth a lot of money. If you want to find it, how can it be possible? Easy.

If the armor can really be made, I think it won't be cheap for outsiders. Give it to my brother." Du Shaoshou. If it fails, this hundred thousand taels of silver will be my compensation to Jushangyuan."
