Chapter 80 080: County Government [Please vote]
The sun is very bright in the afternoon, and the autumn tiger is also annoying.
The golden crow hangs high in the sky, making people sleepy and lazy in the sun and don’t want to move.
Shen Tang is also like a handful of vegetable leaves that have been wilted in the sun, leaning listlessly and squinting his eyes, sleepiness gradually taking over.
But soon, business came.
Boom, boom, boom!
The visitor tapped the wooden stool with his finger and shouted impatiently: "Wine seller, wake up, how do you sell the wine here?"
Shen Tang's sleepiness disappeared and he was hooked. He raised the brim of his hat with his fingers, revealing a beautiful and handsome face. The person who came looked at her face, swept away the impatience hovering in his eyebrows, and then looked directly at her face, even his voice couldn't help but be a little greasy.
“Little lady, how do you sell this wine?”
Shen Tang looked lazily: “A jar of wine is two catties and four hundred and fifty cents, and other wines are two catties and three hundred cents. No two prices.”
For the sake of this cheap-looking face, the visitor was not displeased because Shen Tang was too lazy to get up and say hello. But when he heard the price of the wine she quoted, he raised his eyes in anger and said, "Hey, you are a wine seller walking down the street. Who knows how much water is mixed with the wine you sell? It costs four hundred and fifty to open your mouth." Shi Wen, return the wine? I’m afraid you’ve never even seen grapes!”
Shen Tang was not polite: “If you want to buy it, just buy it. If you don’t want to buy it, just leave.”
Come on. People seemed not to have expected Shen Tang to have such a reaction.
Based on his past experience, when a vendor sees him, he will automatically lower his head, either flattering him with nice words, or half selling and half giving away discounts. Suddenly he lost face and said angrily: "Do you know who I am?"
Shen Tang took a serious look.
He shook his head honestly: "I don't know him."
When the man heard that Shen Tang was new here, he felt a little better.
He said: "I am a servant of the county government."
The housekeeper in charge of purchasing is his uncle.
Shen Tang nodded to indicate that he understood.
This man is still waiting for Shen Tang's "filial piety".
Instead of giving it away for free, you should buy one and get one free. Only by building a good relationship can you do business stably in this place. As a result, this stupid young man didn't show any expression at all, and even asked him with his eyes why he was still stuck? If you can't afford it, don't block other people's stalls and delay business.
He couldn't lose face, but he didn't dare to make a fuss.
After all, the county government is not far away. Their county guard is not very good-tempered and does not like the people below him to cause trouble for him. Normally, he relies on the county government to bully ordinary traders and take advantage of them, but he doesn't care, but if things get too big, he will be responsible for selling them.
Shen Tang urged in a funny way: "Do you still want to buy it, sir?"
Seeing that he could not take advantage, this man was reluctant to pay.
Open one of the jars, and the rich aroma of wine comes out.
This man serves in the county government. Occasionally there are banquets at the house, and the leftovers are sent to the kitchen. He can also drink a few sips of fine wine and taste a few mouthfuls of delicious food. He still has a certain ability to taste. If every jar is of this quality, he will make the profit, and the repayment can be said to be ten taels.
“How much wine do you have left?”
Shen Tang said: “As much as you want.”
"What a big breath, how much inventory can you have in a small wine shop?" He put the cork back on the wine with contempt, his actions were honest, and he swept away everything on Shen Tang's bench in one breath, making sure that every jar was filled with the aroma of wine. Rich and good wine, only then can I pay with confidence. When calculating the money, I want to take advantage of even the slightest, "Just wait here." According to the news, if the master is satisfied, the rest will be taken."
Shen Tang asked: "Is your master a county guard?"
The man hummed proudly: "Otherwise. Who can it be? Little girl, if your wine is liked, you will become rich in the future."
Shen Tang smiled and said nothing.
I don’t know whether she is developed or not, but——
Just as she was about to complain, a particularly different gaze fell on her. Shen Tang subconsciously looked in that direction and happened to see a window that happened to be closed. Shen Tang frowned, dismissed the unnecessary thoughts, filled the empty wine jar with wine and continued to set up the stall.
At the same time——
Gu Chi stood by the window, watching his roommate remove the fork holding the window, and said meaningfully: "It was actually discovered." "You have regressed, Gu Wangchao. Is this your way of being a scribe?" The person who took off the pole had an ordinary face that would not be found if thrown into the crowd. Even his voice was popular. If What's special about it is its temperament.
"Qi Yuanliang, why don't you turn into your true appearance? This is an elegant room and not in broad daylight. Why do you continue to cover up and make it look like you are not visible to others." Hearing "Scribe "The way." Gu Chi's face turned slightly blue, and then he relaxed again.
He also has something to pray for, so he is not afraid.
Yes, pray for kindness.
The man urged Wen Xin and raised his hand to brush his face, revealing Shen Tang's familiar face, and his voice also changed.
"Get used to it, be careful when sailing."
After receiving an unfriendly letter from Gu Chi earlier, he pretended to come out to meet "friends". He said he was a "friend", but in fact he had no friendship with Gu Chi and didn't know the other person's intention. He was also afraid that the tax money robbery would cause complications, so he hesitated several times and chose to "go to the meeting alone".
I just didn’t expect——
Shen Xiaolangjun would be selling wine as a bartender not far downstairs.
Speaking of this, he couldn't help but sigh.
How obsessed is Shen Xiaolangjun with setting up a stall?
If he hadn't known it was a coincidence, he would have suspected that this guy was following him here. He happened to be talking a lot in his heart, and he stood out among the people with his talkativeness and was discovered by Gu Chi.
It was really unexpected.
I didn’t expect that Shen Xiaolangjun would make rapid progress and discover Gu Chi’s voyeurism. If Qishan hadn’t picked up the pole quickly, he would have been exposed.
"If you are so cautious, why did you come to Xiaocheng?"
Qi Shan replied: "This is an appropriate question to ask you."
The two looked at each other, Quiet and silent - they have to admit that they are all people with evil intentions, and no one is more innocent than the other.
Each of them only knows each other by name.
But their "name" -
Probably half a catty to eight ounces.
In the current situation, no one wants to face each other. If a win-win situation can be achieved, it is best to avoid each other and achieve each other's goals. If not, then don't fight in such a way that both parties lose and let others take advantage.
Gu Chi was the first to break the silence.
"For the sake of fairness, let's ask each person one question?"
Qi Shan said: "Yes."
The words were divided into two parts.
The smoke is thick here, and the county government is not peaceful either.
The county guard is an unexpectedly young middle-aged man, he looks like he is in his early thirties, he has no foundation and he is from a foreign race. Who can climb to such a high position at this age, who would not say something awesome!
Take good care of other people's children.
At this moment, this child from another family was respectfully entertaining the distinguished guest - he was said to be an honored guest, but he was not even dressed as a servant of the county. Dressed in patched coarse linen clothes, his brows were full of fatigue after a long journey, his temple hair was gray, his face was weathered, and he was accompanied by a boy of about six years old.
The boy was born with an innocent look.
He sat obediently next to the distinguished guests, taking small bites and chewing the soft and delicate sandwich pastries with concentration, as if they were delicacies from the mountains and the sea, and did not care at all about the adults' pretentiousness.
The county guard's eyes twitched slightly.
It's innocent, but it's also really cruel.
Thinking of the county governor trying to push the distinguished guest down the stone steps, but the boy shot his leg off with a shot, and warned him between his eyebrows. He also had this innocent expression, and the county guard felt deeply. Slightly cold.
Si Yan: Gatekeeper.
