Chapter 133 Recruiting
The caravan is heading north. As summer is about to pass, it is getting closer and closer to the capital.
The caravan’s itinerary has slowed down. The guard leader specifically explained to Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng the arrangements for the caravan’s next journey.
After hearing this, Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng expressed that they could accept the arrangement of the caravan. They were not in a hurry to rush to the capital at this time. They might as well follow the caravan to gain a lot of experience.
The caravan is not in such a hurry now. Shi Zelan heard from a guard that the caravan has brought out a batch of goods. Now it wants to inquire about the market conditions in various towns, and also needs to exchange a batch of goods for home. .
While the caravan was tossing goods, Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng went to the town teahouse to drink tea. Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan accompanied them for one day, and then on the second day they both expressed their intention not to follow.
Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng did not force the two of them, but only asked them not to leave separately.
Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan took a breath. They listened to someone singing a ditty at a teahouse in the previous town. Although they couldn’t understand what was being sung, the crackling tune sounded a bit lively. .
Of course, Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng expressed their displeasure. They thought that the owner of the teahouse was too mischievous. They could still make peace at the moment, but over time, the teahouse would probably not have much business. .
So I wanted to listen to a nice ditty in this small town, but it turned out that the woman invited by this teahouse sang a ditty, moaning and whimpering.
Shi Zelan curiously asked Zhenzheng Shanzheng: "Master, do you really like to listen to other people singing crying tunes?"
Zhenzheng Shanzheng gave her an unkind look: "You have little experience. When you have more experience, you I understand the deep meaning of this. "
"Master, even if I have a lot of experience in the future, I will not like to listen to people singing crying tunes. I would rather have a good life. Don’t cry, she is crying in the teahouse every day. Doesn’t it really affect her home life?”
After listening to Shi Zelan’s words, Master Decheng burst into laughter. Liaohua: "Sister Lan, do you still care about other people's daily lives?"
"I don't care, I just said it casually."
Shi Xiaoliu pulled Shi Zelan outside and whispered: "Do you want to ask how she is doing now?"
"No need to ask, she must not be living a satisfactory life.
Both my uncle and my uncle like to hear her sing little songs, so she must be singing with some real feelings.
Life is going by. A good person can’t just whimper and sing a crying tune for a long time, right?”
Shi Xiaoliu didn't believe it: "Sister Lan, some people are happy to cry for money, not to mention crying for a long time, even for a few days."
Shi Zelan nodded: "Let's go, let's Go looking for the people in the caravan to see how they handle the goods and exchange goods."
Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan quickly found the people in the caravan, but they did not come close, and only listened to them and them from a distance. Various conversations among the locals.
Sure enough, I soon heard about the girl who sang the tune. This was also because Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng went to the teahouse to sit for a long time and even gave a reward to the girl who sang the tune.
The town is a bit big, but it can't stop the crowds, and Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng can tell at a glance that they are outsiders.
"Our boss goes to the teahouse to reward people who sing ditty, so you give us three points of profit, right?"
The merchant in the caravan said with a distressed look on his face: "Those two uncles are traveling together. , they don't do business.
I am a small business, and I don't dare to give you any more profits. Brother, just give me a way to survive."
"Okay, look at your pity. , I won’t care about you anymore. They are not businessmen, who are they?”
"Brother, we suspect that they are Jianghu people. I don't dare to ask about Jianghu people."
"Bah, if they are Jianghu people, they will follow your caravan slowly. They must be the children of aristocratic families following them. The caravan came out to learn something.
Wow, that little girl is finally waiting for a hero to save her. If her family knew that there were two benefactors like this, they would definitely block the door of your inn. "< br>
The people in the caravan exchanged the goods. At this time, they also saw the brother and sister Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan. They quickly asked: "Others just listened to the singing and did not provoke the singing. How can her family Why are you blocking the guests at the inn?”
“That’s how her sisters got married. Are you two uncles going to the teahouse to listen to the ditty again?”
Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan looked at each other, turned and left.
The caravan man saw their backs. He felt relieved and said with a smile: "I was in a hurry to leave in the morning, so I didn't dare to care about the whereabouts of the two uncles."
De Master Cheng and Master Shanzheng were sitting in the teahouse listening to a tune. They heard some faint whispers, and they immediately regretted that they should not have rewarded them yesterday.
"Have you seen those two uncles?"
"Yes, they came again today. They probably fell in love with Nanyu. No matter who she goes with, they are all the same. A way to survive.”
Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng looked at each other, and when they were about to speak, they heard the voices of Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan almost at the same time, and then naturally understood the meaning of some gossip in the teahouse.
Master Decheng stood up gracefully and said to Master Shanzheng: "Let's go to the side."
Master Shanzheng glared at him angrily, then quickly stood up: "Let's go, let's go Let’s go for a walk on the street.”
They walked out of the teahouse and saw Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan standing not far away. They both shook their heads and waved: “Come here.”
Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan trotted over with a smile: "Master, we heard that there is a very elegant place in this town. Let's go take a look?"
Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng motioned to the two of them to lead the way. They walked in front and sent a message to Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng: "Master, don't look back, there are people following you."
" Let them follow.”
Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng just don’t want to cause trouble, but that doesn’t mean they are afraid of trouble coming.
They went to that elegant courtyard, and from beginning to end, the four of them looked calm.
When they left the courtyard, the concierge accepted the reward from Master Decheng and said that his master had another courtyard in the capital, which was even more beautiful.
Master Decheng smiled and said: "If you are destined, you must go in and gain a lot of experience."
They walked back to the inn, looking at them a lot. The leader of the guard was sitting downstairs in the inn and saw them coming back. , couldn't help laughing. ,
"Two gentlemen, I was just about to tell you that we are pretty much busy here. Do you have anything else to do?"
Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng followed suit. He pointed in the direction and looked outside the inn. He saw two boys looking into the inn. When they saw them looking over, they quickly retracted their heads.
The guard leader whispered: "We will leave the city early tomorrow morning."
