Ninety Thousand Miles Across the Weird World

Chapter 87

"That, that..."

"The water quality of our well is good. We've lost [-] cents a month by charging you, or... [-] cents?"

Zheng Sanhu asked in a negotiating tone.

Li Jun saw that although he was here to raise the rent, his face was blushing and he spoke in a negotiating tone. Although his heart was dark, it was not too dark.

"Okay." Li Jun readily agreed.

Li Jun agreed so readily, but Zheng Sanhu was a little overwhelmed. He had expected Li Jun to bargain...

However, Zheng Sanhu looked at the meat dishes on the table and was relieved. This kind of prodigal is not short of money?
When he thought that Li Jun was a prodigal, Zheng Sanhu felt confident.

"Our water is so good, it's a pity to drink it by myself. I'm going to sell it to my neighbors for a penny a barrel."

"Uh, when the neighbors came to fetch water, my little brother helped to open the door."

"These eggs are a thank you gift, little brother must not refuse."

Zheng Sanhu took out two eggs from his arms, and with his body temperature, he squeezed them into Li Jun's arms. Li Jun was a little speechless, and quietly put the eggs on the stone table.

Seeing that people didn't take the eggs he sent seriously, Zheng Sanhu was also a little depressed.

Before he came, he also imagined how happy Li Xiaoge would be when he saw eggs. How could a poor ghost like him eat eggs?
Now, look at the food on the table, with two eggs lying quietly beside me, let's not mention how ironic it is.

"it is good."

Li Jun still agreed very happily this time.

……

Jiuyuan County, City God House.

Xing Liang was going to receive a distinguished guest today, and the chef of the City God's Mansion used all his powers to come up with some delicious dishes.

Stewed blood tofu with thigh bone, sucked the whole bone marrow, rotten and steamed big head, cold salad with palm tendons, marinated neck, roasted feet, all dishes are put on the table.

Xing Liang raised his glass and nodded with a smile.

"Envoy Matt, Xing Mou toasts you, I wonder why He Jun sent you to Jiuyuan?"

Envoy Matt is a monster with a horse face and a human body. He is tall and has piercing horse eyes.

Three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.

Envoy Matt laughed suddenly.

"Everyone has rumored that Xingfu-Jun is very thrifty and eats food at all times. Only when his body needs special needs, he will add some food. When I see it today, it really lives up to its reputation!"

"Your high style and frugal style make Ma admire very much!"

At this time, Xing Liang was chewing a green vegetable in his mouth, he slowly swallowed the green vegetable, put down his chopsticks, and smiled lightly.

"Our Jiuyuan harvest is not good, Xing Mou can only let the ghosts below know about saving by keeping his mouth shut."

"In order to provide more food."

"Therefore, the rule is set that no one can eat people's food. Matt entrusts you as a distinguished guest, and Xing broke the rule today."

"It's just that Xing Mou is afraid that he will eat stubbornly with his mouth and will no longer be able to eat ordinary food, so..."

Xing Liang picked up another green vegetable with chopsticks and smiled wryly.

Envoy Matt praised.

Suddenly, he did not know where to find a box, opened it, it was a plate of cooked food.

"Jun He knows that you are frugal and has pity in your heart. I am afraid that you will ruin your body by being too frugal, so I specially brought you some supplements."

"The immortal vinegar slips the liver sharply."

Envoy Ma brought out the dishes and put them in front of Xing Liang, and said with a smile, "The immortal vinegar was given by Lord Yin, and Lord He has been reluctant to eat it."

"The liver is pointed and pointed, and only a little bit of the top of the liver can be added to the dish. Only a hundred people can cook one plate."

"These two flavors are rare nourishing products. Even if Xingfu Jun saves, please don't disappoint He Jun's good intentions."

Ma Tei looked at Xing Liang with a half-smile.

"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey."

Xing Liang smiled. He picked up the chopsticks, and naturally he picked up a piece of liver tip and fed it to his mouth. After chewing a few bites, his eyes suddenly lit up.

Then I can't wait to get a lot of liver tips, and I can eat it very smoothly.

"delicious."

"Xing Mou has never eaten such delicious food before, I'm afraid... I will not be frugal in the future, hey~"

Xing Liang sighed, but his eyes never left the tip of his liver.

Envoy Matt laughed and didn't say anything more. Then, the two drank a few more glasses of wine, and the guests were very happy. Only then did Envoy Matt leave drunk.

Xing Liang sent Envoy Matt away and returned to the shabby room. He opened the window and quietly looked at Jiuyuan in a overlooking posture.

"General, rinse your mouth!"

Meng Youshen appeared behind him at some point, holding a bowl with clear water in his hand.

"No need."

Xing Liang waved his hand.

He slowly closed his eyes.

"It's just human meat, I've eaten enough, I've gotten used to it, it's no different from chicken, duck, fish, and it tastes even better, hehe!"

Meng Youshen did not speak, but listened quietly.

"Back then, when thieves invaded Jiuyuan, the county annals recorded that this general killed his concubine and rewarded the army, and then the army was very motivated and defended Jiuyuan County."

"Naive!"

Xing Liang sneered again and again: "How many troops are in the three armies? Is it filled by a concubine?"

"When the thieves and bandits besieged the city for three months, we ate up all the grain, rats, insects, and even the old and the weak, and we were able to defend the city."

"Unfortunately, no matter how tragic events are recorded in the history books, there are only a few words."

Xing Liang said very calmly.

Meng Youshen listened carefully, he thought for a while, but still persuaded: "General, you are for the sake of the family and country, and you are not wrong, general."

"You're right, and I've never felt that I was wrong." Xing Liang said decisively.
