Chapter 5: Only the Rat Lord has a noble character (1)
Riding the old yellow wolf out of the Qingliu Xiaozhu, just as he arrived at the intersection of the street, a bold idle man came up and smiled at Chu Tian, "Chu's head is so excited, how come he left so early today?"
Chu Tian glanced at the idle man, raised his foot and gently pointed his shoulder: "Not bad, which yard is helping to attract people? Hong Gu, I'm not happy these days, so I'm scared, when will the man explain to you this pickled product?"
Chu Tian raised his right hand and made a gesture to beat him. The idle man hurriedly squatted down and hugged his head with his hands, and smiled at Chu Tian with his face slanted: "Chu head, Mr. Chu, hehe, how dare the thief man and woman care about your affairs? This is not, a new Qin Yun Yazhu has been opened in front!"
The idle man stretched out his hand and pointed to the corner of the street in front.
At the entrance of a large yard on the corner of the street, a very luxurious carriage was stopping. The curtain was lifted up. A long-bearded man in a loose robe with a somewhat majestic manner but a bit more scribbled, and a bit romantic scribe walked out slowly. He stood at the door with his hands behind his back and opened his left and right, and walked into the yard with his head slightly raised.
"The Lord of the State, Bo Wang Yi." Chu Tian looked up at the sun. The sun was hanging high in the sky. He couldn't help but say in surprise: "It's noon, the Lord of the State, Bo, hey! What's the origin of this yard?"
When the idle man saw Chu Tian interested in this matter, he stood up with a smile and said with great sincerity: "Is this yard originally not the territory of Wanhualou? Just five or six days ago, the boss of Wanhualou lost money and transferred the yard. This Qinyun Yazhu just opened yesterday."
Licking his lips, the idle man smiled and looked at Chu Tian and stopped talking.
Chu Tian glared at the idle man, took seven or eight big money from his sleeve, and threw it hard in his arms.
The idle man hurriedly grabbed the big money and held it tightly in his hand, and said hurriedly: "There are no girls in our Qizhou in the Yizhou City. They are all the beautiful Qinzhou, a place in the southeast. They are all the Qinggongs from Huaizhou, who are good at singing and dancing, and are the best at chanting and writing poems."
The gunman smiled and the idle man lowered his eyebrows and said in a low voice: "From yesterday to today, there have been so many men from Yazhou who have come in and out, and they are scared to death. I heard that a cup of tea inside would have to be covered with silver ten taels. Only a romantic figure like you, Mr. Chu, have the confidence to enter!"
Chu Tian raised his fist and was about to beat him: "The pickled goods, can we men get together where a group of officials go?"
The idle man hurriedly hugged his head and squatted on the ground. Chu Tian sneered: "I'll ask you, what's the way this yard is? Will you be able to compete for business with Honggu?"
The idle man raised his eyes and said hurriedly: "Just about to say, just as he was about to say no, I heard that the yard was helped by Ling Shou, the butler of Ling's family, inside and outside. Although the yard was hung in the name of a distant relative of the Ling family, the owner is actually the Ling family's new son-in-law, Bachelor Zhou Liuyun,."
After letting go of his hands, the idle man stood up again. He weighed the big money in his hand and said with a hint of envy: "Don't Mr. Chu know about Jishan Academy? Mr. Zhou is the new bachelor of the academy of the academy. His family's business, are scholars from Jizhou still rushing to support him?"
Chu Tian remained silent, took out a piece of silver from his sleeve and threw it to the idle man, and patted the old Huanglang's head vigorously.
The old yellow wolf roared in a low voice, spread his legs and rushed forward.
The idle man behind him was holding the silver in joy and shouted loudly to Chu Tian: "Chain Head Chu, Mr. Chu, you are going to the yard for fun. Remember to tell the mother in the yard that it was my Ergouzi who introduced you to you, don't forget!"
Chu Tian waved his hand without looking back, driving the old yellow wolf to run wildly in the streets and alleys of Yizhou City.
There has always been a saying in the city of Qizhou that the east is noble and the west is poor, and the north is officials and the south is merchant. Those who live in the east of Qizhou are all the dignitaries and nobles of Qizhou, giants and merchants. The various yamen in Qizhou are mostly distributed in the north of the city. The south of Qizhou is just like the urn city that Chutian passed by the city, which is a place where shops gather.
Only the west of the city occupies the largest area, but it is also the most chaotic. As for the common people in the city, and even many idle people, all kinds of people from the bottom of the city gather in the west of the city. Most of the streets and alleys here are rugged alleys several feet wide, and the layout of the houses is messy, just like a huge maze.
The old yellow wolf rushed from the east end of the city to the west, and he slowed down here.
Chu Tian rode on the back of the old yellow wolf, and his sharp eyes kept sweeping across the inconspicuous corners of the streets and alleys.
After walking through three or five streets, Chu Tian found the secret notes he was looking for, and followed them all the way. A quarter of an hour later, Chu Tian stopped in front of a large courtyard under the walls of the west city.
In broad daylight, all the people in the slums went out to make a living, and there was no one in the yard.
Several thin and thin dogs were lying weakly at the door of the yard basking in the sun, and from time to time lowered their heads to gnaw on their own or their companions' tails. The huge and powerful old yellow wolf walked over quietly and stood steadily at the door of the yard. Several dogs suddenly shrank and shivered, and they were so trembling that they dared not make any sound.
‘Ah, ah, oh, oh’, in broad daylight, there was an extremely subtle panting sound, and the screams came from a tile house in the corner of the slum. Chu Tian stood on the back of the old yellow wolf with his mouth tilted, and his body surpassed the walls of the courtyard wall. He squinted his eyes and looked at the various parts of the yard.
After waiting quietly for a quarter of an hour, I heard a nearly hysterical thrust sound from the tile room. After a long time, a man's proud "hehe" sound came, followed by the sound of the bed shaking, the sound of the bench sliding, and the sound of the door bolt being pulled open.
A big man with a low body but fat body, and his clothes were covered with lard marks, shaking a greasy handkerchief with his right hand, squeezing open the door and walked out proudly. He turned around and smiled at the room, "Zhang's wife, hey, I'll come to you after a few days. You can make soup to replenish your body with that rib, and you'll hide that string of money, don't be gambled by Brother Zhang again."
A woman with a bit of hoarse voice came out lazily: "Save it, get out of here! Don't be seen by the third brother. It's Nu Nu who is beaten again. You are so heartless!"
The fat man smiled and touched his belly, and walked towards the door of the yard with a look of reminiscence.
Still far from the entrance of the yard, the fat man suddenly saw Chu Tian, who was half taller than the wall. He was so scared that he took three steps back. He pointed at Chu Tian angrily and cursed: "Where did the men and women come from? You, you, what are you here to be here?"
"Scared, timid!" Chu Tian pulled out half of the broken brick on the wall and trembled his hands and beat him out.
With a "dang", the broken brick hit the fat man's forehead, knocking his fat body three feet above the ground, and he fell heavily to the ground and fainted.
‘Shhh’, Chu Tian whistled.
