Chapter 852: Making a Set
“Store, if you have any delicious food, please bring it up quickly!”
The passer-by is young, but he spends a lot of money. After entering the hotel, he asked the shopkeeper to put the most delicious food on the table. Put out good food.
In terms of food, guesthouses obviously cannot compare with restaurants, but it still costs a lot to order a good meal in a guesthouse.
“Shopkeeper, let me ask you, which family is the girl in the window upstairs by the street?”
He bought a table of food and didn't eat much. He just picked up a chopstick and started asking the store in a low voice.
Coming to the guest house to eat and drink is obviously just incidental, and the real purpose of the passerby is self-evident.
Money is always useful in opening roads, but it can also be a headache for a store owner who is lured by a passerby.
The rich young master in front of him was generous and asked in a low voice, but the only question was how to answer in front of the female family friend.
Everyone’s thoughts these days are very simple, either asking for money or asking for favors.
The look on the passerby's face was very clear. The store owner knew that it was extremely normal for these wealthy families to have three wives and four concubines, and they wanted to get hold of any good-looking woman they met.
He smiled awkwardly at the other party, and then moved his eyes to Zhang Xuezhou.
“Brother, you might as well ask me when you ask the store!”
Seeing the store owner in a dilemma, Zhang Xuezhou intervened.
He didn't care that this passerby was pursuing Wei Shao'er, but Zhang Xuezhou was afraid that Wei Shao'er would find him to do something dirty, which would involve him again.
"Ask you?"
The passer-by was surprised and couldn't help but take a second look at Zhang Xuezhou.
“Do you know where that little lady is?” asked the passerby.
“This kind of thing can be solved with just a few clicks,” Zhang Xuezhou replied casually.
“I’m afraid you’re not here to brag!”
"If I'm bragging, you slap me twice. If I'm not bragging?"
Zhang Xuezhou winked, which made the young master look at his right hand and touch his face with his left hand. .
"If you didn't brag, just slap me twice," Young Master said.
“What am I going to do if I slap you twice?” Zhang Xuezhou said with a smile: “Slapping you twice will not bring me any benefit. Maybe your family will see it and cause trouble for me.”
“No matter how bad I am, Chen Zhang, I am still a man of seven feet, and I don’t even bother to do such a dirty thing for revenge.” Young Master said: “As long as you tell me about that little lady, I will slap you twenty times! ”
"You have the guts to bet, why are you being slapped here? It will hurt the peace!"
Seeing that this young man was so stubborn that he wanted to be slapped ten times as many times as he wanted, Rong Tianding looked at Zhang Xuezhou's slap. With a wink, he quickly joined the persuasion team.
“We cultivators slap someone with a slap. If someone is killed, they will be imprisoned. If someone is injured, they will need medical treatment. If you are killed or injured, it is even more uneconomical,” Rong Tianding advised. : "It doesn't matter about gambling, it's just a small gamble, let's We won’t hurt harmony!”
“That’s the truth.” Zhang Xuezhou nodded quickly: “Hitting people hurts harmony, but gambling does not hurt harmony!”
“How much do you want to bet? I, Chen Zhang, have as many as you want?" Chen Zhang shouted.
"If you don't want to bet big, let's bet an ingot of gold!"
Zhang Xuezhou casually took out the ingot of gold given by Dong Zhongshu, which made Chen Zhang's face turn red.
Zhang Xuezhou’s gold ingots are not loose gold or silver, but bounties from the imperial court. One of these gold ingots is twelve taels.
Gold rarely circulates in the hands of ordinary people, and more often appears in large transactions, such as heavy objects, real estate, treasures, etc. between officials. What ordinary people use most is half a tael. Then Goods of value were traded only in silver.
It’s not that Chen Zhang can’t afford to gamble, it’s just that he doesn’t have so much money with him at all.
"I have twenty taels of silver, five hundred and a half taels, plus my ring of jade, this set of brocade clothes from Fenghua Pavilion, my shoes, and this matching sword. !”
In the midst of Rong Tianding’s lively booing, Chen Zhang’s face turned red and he began to take out all the valuables on his body. After putting all the things on the table, Chen Zhang was only wearing his inner clothes.
After being hissed and ridiculed by Rong Tianding for a while, Chen Zhang was obviously taken aback.
Seeing that the other party wanted to take off his underwear, Zhang Xuezhou couldn't help but stretched out his hand to stop him.
"Brother, why are you doing this?" Zhang Xuezhou advised.
“I, Chen Zhang, a dignified seven-foot-tall man, will say it with certainty, and I will follow you as much as you want.” Chen Zhang shouted, “If it weren’t for the small amount of money I brought today, I wouldn’t have any problem with your bet. No! ”
“Let’s not gamble, shall we?”
“You must gamble!”
If you win the bet, you will get twelve taels of gold ingots, and if you lose the bet, you will get a beautiful little girl. With the news about the lady, Chen Zhang felt that he had not lost anything.
There are people who can buy a smile with a thousand pieces of gold, but what Chen Zhang paid for it is nothing.
Although his head was bleeding from the stimulation of Rong Tianding's ridicule, Chen Zhang could still tell the difference between good and bad. He encountered a trap today, but he really had to exploit this trap.
With these categorical words, Zhang Xuezhou had to find a witness, and then took a bamboo board to write down his respective bets, and then asked the other party to sign his name.
"Then let's figure out where this woman came from. If I make a mistake, the gold mine will be yours," Zhang Xuezhou said.
"Medium!"
Chen Zhang nodded.
He saw Zhang Xuezhou murmuring, and then put a finger on the center of his forehead.
A drowsy feeling came over him, and it took him a while to wake up.
“What are you doing?” Chen Zhang asked in surprise.
"Mr. Chen, there is no need to panic. I just did some calculations and now I have figured out the whereabouts of the woman," Zhang Xuezhou said with relief.
This ingot is enough to buy an ordinary house in Chang'an City. The bet is not big, but Shen Peigong laughed at Dong Zhongshu for taking it out.
But for the common people, this is wealth that many people have struggled to accumulate throughout their lives.
The bet between Zhang Xuezhou and Chen Zhang happened quickly, but it attracted nearly twenty people to watch. Almost everyone in the store gathered over, and some people were curious to visit at the door of the store.
Zhang Xuezhou unleashed a Dingren technique on Chen Zhang.
He not only needs to understand the other party's family background, but also needs to understand the other party's temperament to see if the other party is someone who will retaliate, so as not to cause subsequent trouble that he cannot afford.
Picture after picture flashed through his mind. Zhang Xuezhou saw the deep and thick mansion, and also saw the training under Chen Zhang's strict discipline.
Perhaps due to his limited talent, although Chen Zhang practiced hard, he was often reprimanded.
Then Chen Zhang fell into repeated practice.
In Chen Zhang’s memory, the images Zhang Xuezhou saw most were those of practicing hard over and over again, and little else.
“It turns out to be a chick!”
The time of practicing took up so much of Chen Zhang's memory, and Chen Zhang's social experience was limited.
When Zhang Xuezhou saw a familiar and vague figure when he saw Chen Zhang was injured in the assassination, Zhang Xuezhou couldn't help but take a breath of air.
This was not just a trap for Chen, Wei Shaoer also set his sights on the other party, deliberately inflicting injuries on the other party in order to seek an encounter.
This made Zhang Xuezhou immediately understand the origin of the basin of water.
