Chapter 2 Door-to-door Business

[On the first day of the opening of the new book, many friends support it. Thank you very much~~ Because there is no essence in the new book upload, I have to owe it for the time being. I'll make it up to you next week!]

.

Fortunately, there are still many remaining memories of this life in my mind. Otherwise, Chu Tianya will definitely get lost when he walks in Taiyuan City, which has hundreds of T-character streets. After crossing a stone overpass is Chu Tianya's own home. There are many vendors selling noodles and snacks under the bridge, and Chu Tianya is going to buy some food there.

Seeing a restaurant selling cooking cakes, the owner of the short stall was selling loudly. Chu Tianya suddenly thought of "Wu Dalang" and couldn't help but feel relieved, which made him feel a little more depressed for days. So he came forward and said, "Two cooking cakes."

The owner of the stall changed his face when he saw Chu Tianya coming. At this time, he hurriedly wrapped two cooking cakes for Chu Tianya.

Chu Tianya took a bite, which was quite sweet, so he said, "How much is it?"

"What is Taibao talking about? I took two cooking cakes and ate them. How much is it worth!" The owner of the stall said very kindly.

Chu Tianya blinked his eyes, "Aren't you doing business? Eat for nothing, no money?"

"These two cooking cakes are eaten by Taibao, which is their blessing! Hey, hey hey!" The stall owner smiled, rubbed his hands, and said nervously, "No money, no money!"

Chu Tianya's heart was blocked. Chu Tianya used to eat overlord meals in this area, so he said, "I don't owe you this time. Tell me, how much is it?"

"No, no... I really don't want money!" The owner of the stall was completely panicked! He kept muttering in his heart, "What's going on today? Does Taibao have to pay for cooking cakes?" You're not going to think about me, are you?"

Chu Tianya really couldn't laugh or cry. He stared angrily, "If you don't say it, I'll go to your Jinlian... Oh, tear down your stall!"

"Wow! ...Taobao, spare your life! There is no 'golden' lotus in the four walls of my family!" The owner of the stall was so scared that he fell on his knees and kowtowed straight, and kept whining, "The little one didn't dare to offend Taibao recently! The money from the past has also been given, and I haven't owed half a penny! Taibao, please forgive me! There is really no Jinlian in my house!"

This disturbance shocked the people nearby to come to watch. Chu Tianya didn't expect that the stall owner was so unscrightened. At present, he felt a little embarrassed and said quickly, "Go away, I'm just joking with him!"

It can be seen that these people are usually afraid of Chu Tianya. Hearing his words, they all dispersed one after another.

The owner of the stall was scared and still kowtowed on the ground with tears and a runny nose. At this moment, a man from the gradually dispersed crowd approached.

is a young man dressed as a literary student. He wears his cross-legged head, wears a gray-washed semi-old straight decoration, a black ribbon hanging jade around his waist, and a black fracture fan in his hand. The long look is that the sparse eyebrows and star eyes are bright, the thin skin is white and gentle, the head is not short but skinny, and the straight-zhui gown on the body floats left and right with the wind.

When he came forward, the skinny man knelt on the ground with a fan and said, "You are so stubborn, but you don't want money. Don't you have to make Taibao angry?"

Turning his head, he held the fan and arched his hand to Chu Tianya. He said with a smile, "How about Taibaoxiu to have a good understanding with this dull man, and go to the Star Building with Xiaosheng for a few drinks?"

Chu Tianya looked up and down at him, but he didn't know him. I guess it's the old knowledge of Chu Tianya in the past. He was afraid that he would wear his eyes and just want to get out, so he looked angry and snorted, "Well, I'm too lazy to argue with him. I'll go and have some wine with you!"

For good is that the two people in the past and present life are "soul fusion", so Chu Tianya's words and behavior are natural and will not be revealed from time to time.

"Taibao is so refreshing." The skinny man smiled, threw a few copper coins in front of the stall owner, and arched his hand, "Taibao, please!"

Chu Tianya, who is in charge of criminal investigation, has such sharp eyes. When the skinny man smiled just now, there was a trace of "stug success" on his face. Out of his professional habits, he suddenly became alert and said secretly: I'm afraid this man is not just drinking when he comes to me!

The two of them got on the overpass and went to the Star Tower. The owner of the rice cake stall picked up a few copper coins on the ground and picked up the stall and fled like crazy. Chu Tianya looked back at him and couldn't laugh or cry.

Picking Star Tower is located on Tang Mingzheng Street, the most prosperous street in Taiyuan City. There are all kinds of restaurants and prostitutes on both sides of the street. It goes without saying that people come and go during the day. The "night market" after night is even more lively. From morning to evening, the crowds of people surged, men, women and children rubbed their shoulders, and there was a prosperous scene of peace and prosperity.

The two of them went into the Star Picking Building and found an elegant room to sit down. Dr. Chafan came to serve and asked what kind of wine and rice he wanted. The skinny man did not order the dishes, but only said, "I just take the Baiwei soup, but I want good wine." Xiao Er suddenly showed a happy face and sang Chang Nuo - "Pingge distinguished guest, Baiwei soup; Fenkang flower carving, first-class good wine"!

Then, I thanked him and left.

Chu Tianya is an invited guest, but he doesn't say anything. These things in front of him make him feel very fresh.

The two of them drank a cup of tea each. The skinny man opened the black fracture fan and stroked it in front of his chest. He looked at Chu Tianya with a smile and said, "I have heard the name of Longcheng Taibao for a long time, and I have admired it for a long time. See you today, it's enough to comfort my life!"

As soon as Chu Tianya heard this, he dared to say that he did not know Chu Tianya before, so he said, "What's your name?"

The skinny man took the folding fan with a smile and arched his hand and said, "The surname is Bai, the name is cheap, the small character is Jingqian, and he was born in the big family."

"It turned out to be Fourth Brother Bai." Chu Tianya bowed back and waited for his next sentence.

Men in the Song Dynasty used to be "brothers" to each other. Even the brothers of a mother in the family, the elder brother and brother are not called "second brother", but "second brother".

"Today, the student specially chatted about disturbing Taibao. First, he came to admire his reputation, and second, he was a little complicated. He dared to help Taibao to help him." After saying that, he took out two ingots of yellow gold and put them in the middle of the wine table.

Chu Tianya took a look and thought that this Baixu was extremely generous. These two ingots of gold are estimated to be worth the living expenses of a middle-class family for half a year.

"Fourth Brother Bai is so generous that I don't know what I need to do for you?" Chu Tianya didn't get the gold either. He just smiled and said, "I'm just a prisoner. I can't do anything big."

"Toobao is too modest. Everyone knows that in the land of Longcheng, there is nothing that the "Longcheng Taibao" can't do. Bai Xun seemed to have a confident smile and gently shook the folding fan and said, "I dare not hide it from Taibao. I have a distant relative. A few days ago, I was drunk and lost my nature. I made trouble in Taiyuan Mansion. For a moment, I was mistakenly caught by the public affairs and trapped in the camp. Xiaosheng didn't dare to ask Taibao for too much. He just asked Taibao to take care of him a little. Don't let him suffer too much in prison.

Chu Tianya picked up the corners of his mouth and smiled faintly, thinking that this was probably the usual "way of making money" of Chu Tianya. This effort can earn a huge amount of money. No wonder he is not short of money for eating, drinking and gambling. However, this Bai Wei's action is too generous. Presumably his "distant relatives" must have committed a trivial matter!

So Chu Tianya asked, "Brother Bai, who is your family's name? Why are you detained in prison?"

Bai Xu's eyebrows sank slightly and leaned forward. As he pushed the gold to the front of Chu Tianya, he whispered in a low voice, "His surname is Xue, Mingyu!"

"Xue Yu? Taihang giant bandits, drunken knife king Xue Yu?" Chu Tianya was slightly shocked. Just now, Jiang Laosan came to report that there was a new crime. Isn't it him?

It seems that he is really a "fat master". He went to prison in the morning, and in the afternoon, someone spent a lot of money to get through the joints!

"Taibao, don't be nervous." Bai Shu's expression was calm and he said, "Xiaosheng just asked Taibao to take a little care of him in prison. He didn't think about it. I dare not be involved in any of the Taibao.

Chu Tianya listened to the smile, which was obviously to cover up!

Xue Yuren called "Taihang Giant" and must have been a repeat offender in the imperial court. At present, this white and well-prepared behavior is mostly not a "far-distance relative". Maybe he is also a member of the Taihang Giant.

It seems that these two taels of gold are not easy to earn. If you don't do it well, you have to put on the charge of "thief accomplice", which is going to lose your head.

Moreover, Chu Tianya has no intention of making this kind of money again.

"Why is Taibao laughing?" Bai Wei couldn't help but look confused. He thought that Chu Tianya thought he didn't have enough money, so he took out a gold deposit and put it together. "It's too reserved. Why don't you say it bluntly?"

At this moment, Dr. Caifan was singing Nuo to the Accord outside. Chu Tianya said, "You put away the gold first."

Bai Wei suddenly looked surprised, but he didn't say much, so he put away all three gold ingots. Dr. Caifan asked An into the pavilion. First, he served a few sweets such as ginkgo snow pears and sugar, and also brought a few blue and white wine pots for the two of them to choose wine.

Chu Tianya didn't know much about the Chinese market, so he shirked it and let Bai Xun pick two bottles of authentic Longcheng Fen wine. The wine of the Song Dynasty is not cheap. These two pots of "authentic Longcheng Fenjiu" are enough for a family to eat for half a month.

Soon, several tea and rice doctors interspersed into the Accord, presenting more than a dozen dishes, such as "golden silk belly soup" and "Juiming Douzi", Mr. Lin Lin. Finally, the doctor also said that this is only the first meal, and the "Baiwei soup" in our store is in line with the name. If it doesn't suit your appetite or the wine is cold, replace it with a new one immediately until there are 100 dishes.

Chu Tianya couldn't help but be shocked. Wine is a famous wine and dishes are good dishes. This table full of wine and vegetables is enough for more than a dozen strong men to eat, and it has to be replaced from time to time... The Song Dynasty is really rich, and the people also enjoy luxury!

And this Song Dynasty dish is not only green and natural, but also tastes quite good. However, as the saying goes, he is soft-mouthed and short-handed. At first, Chu Tianya only regarded Baixu as a "self" friend, so he came to the restaurant with him. Now that he knows that he has other plans, he has more attention because of his professional habits. First, to prevent him from taking medicine in his dishes, and second, to prevent himself from getting drunk and making a mistake, so he eats this meal cautiously.

Seeing that Chu Tianya's chopsticks were not diligent, he knew that he was wary, so he laughed and said, "In fact, Taibao doesn't have to be too suspicious. I don't have any bad intentions."

Chu Tianya smiled slightly, "Everyone knows that Xue Yu is a Taihang bandit, and he has a big deal. I have to be cautious. It's just that I haven't returned to the prison city today. I don't know why he was arrested this time.

Bai Xu was calm. He shook his fan and said unhurryly, "Indeed, most people in Taiyuan know that a group of good men gathered on the Qixing Peak of Taihang Mountain to help the weak and fight against the border bandits. Xue Yu, the drunken knife king, is the leader of the third chair. A few days ago, he went down the mountain to Taiyuan Mansion to do some private things. Unexpectedly, he was drunk and had a conflict with several provocative splashes. When the government arrived, someone recognized him and tied him up while he was drunk and unarmed.

Chu Tianya has been doing criminal investigation for so many years. His mind has always been meticulous and keen. Listening to his words, he deliberately avoids the truth, which is obviously covering up something. So he asked, "Since he is a good man who gathers in the mountains and forests, he must have been chased by the government. He took the risk of lurking in Taiyuan City this time - just say, what did he come here for?

Chu Tianya's words hit the point. Bai Shen's face suddenly changed slightly, and his mouth squeaked, "This... Xiaosheng, I don't know!"

"Don't you know, or don't you want to say it?" Chu Tianya smiled coldly and said, "Since you can't trust me, why do you ask me for help? You don't tell me the truth. Is it worth it if I help you at that time but take a life for nothing?

After saying that, Chu Tianya got up and was ready to leave.

At this moment, the door that had been closed was suddenly opened, and a person rushed in like a wind from outside. The speed made Chu Tianya think that he was dazzled. I only felt that someone's murderous spirit came to his face. With his instinctive reaction, he flashed, and a cold light rubbed his neck!
