The two labors, Zhang Junshi and Li Yi were liberated, and the daily life in Jiwo Village finally returned to the right track and gradually became orderly.
Nie Bufan was able to let go and leave all sorts of labor services behind, without incident. Like a leader inspecting, he visits the remaining patients one by one every day, from Si Chenyu, Shen Muran, Li Huai, Tiannv to their respective servant maids.
Seeing them all as if possessed by a resentful spirit, haggard and gloomy, it was really chilling. However, if you really need to sacrifice your body to save this group of people, Nie Bufan feels hurt somewhere. It was a simple choice whether to make himself hurt or to make others hurt, so he decided to ignore it. Before Si Chenyu started, he ran into the city to take refuge.
This time he brought not only Flower Girl and Langya, but also Wukong and a black-striped yellow-bottomed chicken named "Golden". Bring the first two because they have a keen sense of smell and are easily used by others to find his place. Bringing Wukong and Jin Jin is to understand boredom.
Nie Bufan chose a seemingly luxurious inn and stepped in.
Xiaoer greeted him with a smile on his face and paused after seeing Nie Bufan all dressed up.
Nie Bufan’s clothes are quite exquisite, they are all carefully selected by Zhang Junshi, but he is carrying a big old bamboo basket with a monkey on his shoulder. He is obviously a handsome boy, but it makes people feel a little nondescript.
Xiao Er has been greeted and sent for so long. I have never seen such a decent brother in such a luxurious place. For a while, I was not sure of the identity of the visitor, so I had to welcome the person in first and asked: "This son, welcome. Do you want to drink tea or stay?"
It was not a meal at this time. There were only two or three people in the hall. When they saw Nie Bufan, they all cast strange glances.
Nie Bufan looked at it for a while, and said, "Prepare a room for me."
"Okay, go to a room." Xiao Er led him to the counter, bowed and smiled, "How many days do you plan to stay?"
"Tentatively set for three days."
"A deposit is required for three days."
Three and two? Nie Bufan glared at him. At this price, he could live in Ji Wo Village for half a month!
The little second was observing his words, muttering to himself, it seems that this master is not a rich master. As he was thinking, he took out a bulging purse from his arms. The purse was embroidered with gold silk, which was not ordinary. Xiao Er couldn't help but overturned the previous speculation. It might be a good source to be able to afford this kind of purse.
Xiaoer quietly looked at the purse without showing a trace, but saw the owner of the purse grabbed a handful of copper plates from it, and then placed it on the counter and counted them one by one.
Xiaoer is a little broken, three or two is equivalent to nearly a thousand copper plates, when does this master plan to count? Can that wallet fit in?
"Well, this son, if you don't have enough money, you can go to the inn on the right street." Xiao Er said tactfully.
Nie Bufan glanced at him without a glance, and while concentrating on counting the money, he replied: "I just want to live here. Don't interrupt, let me count."
Xiao Er wanted to cry without tears. Their inn’s reputation in the city is also one of the best. No one has ever spent a lot of coins to spend the 13th. This is like using a gross ticket in a star-rated hotel, it is also money, but the style is different. Of course, Nie Bufan is probably the one who can do such boring things.
The counter where they were was gradually becoming the focal point of the surrounding eyes, the hall was quiet, and they were all silently watching Nie Bufan counting money.
Nie Bufan counted a thousand words (1000 words here is equivalent to 250 copper plates), but he couldn't count, the little monkey Wukong thoughtfully handed out a cup of tea.
"Hey, that's my tea..." a guest in the hall called out.
As soon as the voice fell, Nie Bufan had already drank it in a brazen manner.
The guest had to touch his nose and calm down. Nie Bufan glanced at him, handed the cup to Wukong, and taught, "How can I take other people's things? Go, apologize to the uncle, and thank you by the way. ."
Wukong took the cup, jumped on the table again, pushed the cup carefully in front of him, then covered his chest with one paw, bent his waist 30 degrees, bowed gracefully, his long tail raised high, like a man A well-educated gentleman.
Immediately, it took an unused teacup and filled the teapot with water. There was no mistake in the whole process. Its small body is not as high as a teapot, its fine golden hair, big eyes, and its clever appearance almost turned everyone around.
"What a clever little monkey!" The customer couldn't help but stretched out his hand to tease him. The little monkey threw his tail and jumped back to Nie Bufan.
"My son, do you sell monkeys?" he asked.
"Not for sale." Nie Bufan replied without looking back.
Wukong bared his teeth at the man, rushing as if to demonstrate.
"Haha." The man smiled, "How does the son train? Can you advise me a few tricks?"
Nie Bufan frowned, raised his head dissatisfied and said: "I was interrupted by you, I have forgotten where to count."
"What are you counting?" The man threw a few taels of silver from his arms and said, "I paid for it for you."
Xiaoer quickly caught up, and finally no longer needed to count money.
Who knows Nie Bufan said: "I don't need other people's funding, thank you for your kindness."
"It's just twos and threes, but it costs a meal. You don't have to worry about it, I just want to make friends with you."
Nie Bufan thought for a while, and suddenly said to Xiao Er: "Give me that son's silver."
Xiao Er reluctantly handed it over, thinking he was going to return it, but didn’t want him to put it in his pocket. Then he poured all the copper plates of his money bag on the counter and said: "You count the rest, the copper plates are probably Enough to count, even more is your tip."
In fact, Nie Bufan still counts the amount of money in his purse, there is only a small amount, he does not believe that Xiao Er will come to him for a few pennies!
Xiao Er's expression instantly stiffened.
"Hahaha." The guest who spoke up burst out laughing.
The others also showed a smile.
"Remember to check in for me, I'm waiting to rest." Nie Bufan exhorted again, then sat at the table of the guest and gave him a fist to express his gratitude.
The humanity said: "Why do you carry so many copper plates with you? Isn't it inconvenient?"
"It's because of inconvenience that I have to spend it." Nie Bufan took it for granted.
The man laughed again. This man has a beard and a tall stature. Nie Bufan began to think that he was not young anymore. He was only twenty-seven or eighth when he looked up close. He was neatly dressed, and he was quite chivalrous.
"In Xia Qin Boya, I don't know how the son is called?"
"Duan Yu." Nie Bufan reported a false name when he went out, almost becoming a habit. Seeing that the person in front of him looked a little like Qiao Feng, he naturally reported "Duan Yu".
"It turned out to be Young Master Duan." Qin Boya smiled and asked, "I see you carrying a bamboo basket, I don't know what it is for?"
If it's luggage, you shouldn't use bamboo baskets. Judging from his clothes and temperament, he didn't seem to be born in poverty, but he didn't even have one or two servants. It was really strange.
Nie Bufan carefully put down the bamboo basket, and returned two words: "Secret."
Qin Bo's teeth smiled without speaking, but his ears moved, and he heard that the bamboo basket was obviously filled with living things. Looking at the little monkey on his shoulder, he secretly asked whether the bamboo basket contained his pet?
He guessed it was true, but he probably never thought that this so-called pet turned out to be a chicken.
"By the way, to thank you for your generosity, I also give you a gift." Nie Bufan took out an egg from his waist pocket and handed it to Qin Boya.
Qin Boya looked at the irregular potato-like egg in front of him, and didn't know how to react. He hadn't received such a...ingenious gift.
Nie Bufan warned carefully: "Treat it well."
"Uh..." How can an egg be treated well?
In Nie Bufan’s piercing eyes, Qin Boya had to slowly put the egg in his arms.
At this moment, there was a noise of horses singing outside, and then he walked into a person dressed as an attendant and shouted to Xiao Er: "Prepare one upper room and eight middle rooms. There are 12 people in our party. Ten days."
"Okay, wait a minute." The few little two didn't count the copper plates anymore, so they drew them into a dustpan and began to arrange accommodation for the group of people.
The arrangements were made, and the attendant walked out of the inn again. There was a carriage parked outside the inn, and a man and a woman got out of the carriage.
The man is twenty-four or five years old, with a crown of forehead, a handsome face, the corner of his eye is raised, a mole under his right eye, a thin mouth with a bile nose, a thin mouth, and a breath of extravagance and coldness that no stranger should enter. The man swept the hall at random, his eyes felt arrogant, alienated and indifferent.
There was a maid behind him, with low eyebrows and expressionless face, who looked like a puppet. She was still holding a cat in her arms, as fat as a giant caterpillar, yet she was still alive, squinting at all sentient beings.
Nie Bufan dislikes this kind of person the most. Si Chenyu was like this ghost at the beginning, pretending to be extremely forceful.
Just as the pedestrian passed by where Nie Bufan was, the fat cat in the arms of the maid suddenly stood up, her hair standing upright, and his teeth looked at the bamboo basket at Nie Bufan’s feet.
The man walking in the front stopped, turned his head and asked, "What's the matter?"
The maid bowed and replied, "Chun Jun seems to be frightened."
"Let it be quiet." The man turned and walked upstairs again, without even looking at Nie Bufan.
At this moment, there was a dull cry from nowhere. When the fat cat heard it, it suddenly bounced up, jumped out of the arms of the maid, and quickly ran towards the man.
Fat cat leaped up in the air, and the man lifted his hand back, twisting the skin around his neck accurately, and then stared directly at where Nie Bufan and Qin Boya were, with a cold expression on his face.
The guards behind him looked at the same time, neatly and uniformly, all guarded and stern.
Do you want such a big battle?
Nie Bufan played with the cup, looking like an innocent passerby.
