Chapter six hundred and nineteen: sixty
Seeing the city gate of Yuejing City from afar, Qin Feng suddenly said to Ma Hou: "Take the guards back first, and I will go to the city with Shangshu Huo for a walk."
Mahou said nervously: "Your Majesty, I am the guard and I will be responsible for your safety."
Qin Feng laughed: "Do you think there will be safety issues with me and Shangshu Huo?"
Ma Hou smiled, too, Your Majesty is a level nine master, and Huo Guang is even a half-step master. If there is really a person who threatens their personal safety, then I am afraid that it will be their burden to be present.
"Shilarious Minister Xiao, you should go back to the Ministry of War, gather the situations Yu Chao said today and take out a report as soon as possible." Qin Feng said to Xiao Ning.
"Yes, your majesty, then I'll go." Xiao Ning nodded, "Today I can take out the report and send it to the Ministry of Works."
"Well, by the way, after you go back, you are not allowed to disclose information to Jian Fang. If a large number of city gate troops come to us, then I will only ask." Qin Feng suddenly pointed Xiao Ning's nose and threatened.
Xiao Ning smiled, "Don't worry, Your Majesty."
"Okay, then I will take a step first and you will enter the city later." Qin Feng jumped off his horse with a smile, threw the reins to the horse monkey, took a big step and walked into the city. Huo Guang also handed the horse to a guard and followed Qin Feng tightly.
The autumn harvest has passed, and it is the slack season, so many farmers, a shoulder pole and a rope, entered the city, gathered together, waiting to take on work.
It was the lunch time that most of these farmers held a bun in one hand and a penny of herbal tea in the other hand. They ate a bite of bun and a sip of herbal tea, and showed a comfortable smile on their faces. This year, God appreciated his face, and the weather was good. Although the dynasty has changed, the real place for fighting was limited, which also made the people around Yuejing City not affected much. There are many opportunities to make money in the city now, and it just happened to make some money in the slack season to put it in their pockets.
A man who looked like a housekeeper turned out from the corner of the street and walked towards the place where the group of people gathered. The farmers who were gathering together all stood up and put the bowls on the ground. The unfinished steamed buns were stuffed into their arms, and immediately surrounded the people.
"Master Zhao wants twenty people to carry the grain bags, and they need to be strong and thin. The thin ones will automatically get behind." The person who looked like a housekeeper shouted in the crowd.
The farmers raised their sleeves one by one, exposed their muscles, and shouted: "Master, we have nothing else, we have strength."
After a while, the butler ordered twenty men and took them away. The rest returned to the shade, took out the steamed buns from his arms again, picked up the big bowl of tea placed on the ground, and started chatting happily. This time it was not the turn, and there was still a chance for the next wave. Anyway, there are many places to work in the city now, so I don’t have any chance.
There are not many pedestrians on the street at this moment. The general shops are very deserted, but teahouses and restaurants are crowded with high-end restaurants and roadside shops. Walking on the street, different fragrances are mixed together, floating on the street with the breeze.
Qin Feng and Huo Guang, who were walking on the street, could not help but move their index fingers when they smelled the fragrance.
"Brother Huo, let's have something together?" Qin Feng asked with a smile.
"Okay, when I was in the Ministry of War, I heard my colleagues say that there is a special flavor of sauce noodles on this street, so I will try it where to try it!" Huo Guang touched his stomach and asked.
"Okay, let's eat this sauce noodles!" Qin Feng nodded repeatedly.
Under Huo Guang's leadership, the two of them came to this restaurant called Lai Yiwan. It was indeed a very prosperous business. Although it was a noodle restaurant, the store was very large. There were more than a dozen tables in the house. It was quite large on this street, but even so, each table was full of people and there were no empty seats.
"It seems we have to wait!" Qin Feng smiled at Huo Guang.
"It's a unique flavor!" Huo Guang said. It seemed to be a very distant thing for the two of them.
The kitchen of the noodle restaurant was not behind, so it was placed under the eaves. After a large dough table, several men cut a ball of dough with bare arms and kept pulling it in their hands. A piece of dough turned into extremely thin noodles in front of Qin Feng's eyes. He threw it into the boiling water pot on the side and pulled another ball. On the side, two women picked up the cooked noodles and put them in a large bowl. The wooden spoon scooped a large spoon of sauce from the iron pot on the stove next to him and poured it on the noodles.
Yellow flowers, fungus, tofu, carrots, and a green dish (beans or garlic sprouts), and meat sauce, all with meat and vegetables. Small slices of egg cakes are floating on the soup and leeks are chopped, red, yellow, green, white, and black. Not to mention eating them, just looking at this color, just smelling this smell is enough to make people's index fingers move. Even Qin Feng couldn't help swallowing his saliva.
After finally waiting for the seat, the two of them each had a large bowl of sauce noodles. They took them down with chopsticks and ate them clean. Holding the chopsticks, the two of them shouted at the same time: "Boss, let's have another bowl!"
With a shout, both of them were smiling at each other.
Each person has three large bowls of sauce noodles, and then he is satisfied.
"Masters are among the people!" Qin Feng put down his chopsticks, touched his belly, and lowered his voice and said, "The chefs in the palace can't make this taste."
"This is not simple. If you order this boss and call this boss into the palace, won't you be able to eat this delicious food every day?" Huo Guang said with a smile.
"No, no!" Qin Feng shook his head: "It's better to have fun than to have fun alone!" He pointed to the diners around him, "I'm happy when I summoned into the palace, but these people can't eat this delicious food. Besides, I don't know how to eat noodles every day. If I want to eat, I'll just come out to eat."
"This is your style." Huo Guang smiled and said, "If anyone else wanted to take up all the best things."
Qin Feng smiled, reached into his arms, and shouted, "Waiter, check out!"
The waiter with a white towel on his shoulder walked over happily, but Qin Feng couldn't take out his hand in his arms. Since he became the emperor, he has never let a penny go on him?
Seeing Qin Feng’s embarrassing appearance, Huo Guang smiled and took out a silver note, "I'll treat you!"
He handed the silver note to the waiter, but the waiter's eyes were straightened, "Celebrity, we have a bowl of sauce noodles here, but only ten cents. The two of us have eaten a total of six bowls, sixty cents, but you, you... can't we break it?"
Qin Feng looked at the silver notes in Huo Guang's hand and it turned out to be a hundred taels. One tael of silver is a thousand coins, and one hundred taels of silver is indeed a huge sum of money for the noodle restaurant.
"Is there no zero?" Qin Feng whispered.
Huo Guang was also embarrassed. He had no change at all. This one is the smallest one. How could he have had the opportunity to use money?
"Then there is no need to look for it!" Huo Guang looked at the waiter and said.
The waiter looked at Huo Guang with a monster-like look, "Customer, this is not possible. We are a century-old store here. We are a good deal when doing business. We don't accept more people, and we don't dare to accept your money."
In the waiter's opinion, this money is not easy to earn. The two people in front of him are all burly men. Although they look amiable, they have a trembling atmosphere. They are so generous that they are afraid that the money is a little unclear. If they take it seriously, they will be afraid that they will not be able to eat it.
Looking at the waiter's eyes, Qin Feng stood up, grabbed the silver notes, and said, "I just saw a money house in front. Where can I go to exchange this silver notes for zero? Brother Huo is here to be a pledge. Waiter, how is this good?"
"Okay, okay!" The waiter nodded repeatedly. Huo Guang could only smile bitterly.
Qin Feng ran out and headed straight for the money shop.
Stepping into the door of the money shop, he slapped the silver notes on the counter and said, "Exchange money."
The man who looked like a master at the counter raised his head lazily, reached out to take the silver notes, looked left and right in front of the sunshine, confirmed that it was correct, put down the silver notes, took out a few large incisions of silver from under the counter, took out a scissor, cut off one of the corners of one of the silver ingots, put it on the scale to weigh, nodded, took back the cut, and pushed the others to Qin Feng: "Ninety-eight taels."
Qin Feng exclaimed, "Isn't it a hundred taels?"
"Period fee!" The man who looked like a master looked at Qin Feng with some surprise: "This friend, don't you not understand this rule, right?"
Qin Feng was stunned, "I understand, of course I understand." He grabbed the silver, returned to the noodle shop, put several large ingots of silver on the table, "It's only ninety-eight taels!" He told Huo Guang.
"Of course there is only so much. When going to the redeem shop, the money shop will charge the bill." Huo Guang smiled and reached out to get a ingot of silver, clamped his two fingers, and immediately cut off a corner. The waiter next to him looked at him and trembled all over. The two fingers of this man were actually even more powerful than scissors.
"This is money!" Huo Guang smiled and put the broken silver in the palm of his hand.
"This is still too much. This guy wait a moment, I'll weigh you and then make changes for you!" The waiter turned around and left, his legs were trembling.
"You scared him." Qin Feng said.
"I forgot that I should have him cut it with scissors." Huo Guang spread his hands.
After a moment, Xiao Er brought back a handful of copper coins, "Second Master, this is the zero-point price. The broken silver just now was five cents, worth four hundred cents. This is the three hundred and sixty cents to find the two. Two of you count."
With a thud, a large pile of copper coins fell on the table in front of the two of them. Huo Guang reached out and grabbed it, "Reward you."
"Thank you for your reward!" The waiter seemed to not want to stay in front of the two of them anymore. He held the copper coin and turned around and left. He went outside the house, as if he was pointing at his companions outside the house and saying something about them.
Qin Feng looked at the handful of copper coins in front of him, but a strange look appeared on his face.
"What's wrong?" Huo Guang asked, "What's the good thing about this copper coins?"
