stand back, let me come

Chapter 1194: This time it feels good (Part 1194) [Seeking monthly votes]

When the capital of Zhen Kingdom fell, an extremely strange scene occurred.

The soldiers who were murderous just a moment ago were running around the restaurant with ferocious faces. The boss thought his life was in danger and knelt down to beg for mercy: "Sir, please spare me. I have parents and children to take care of..."

The blood-soaked soldiers broke into his shop and grabbed him out of his hiding place. The shock was so great that the boss even thought of his last words. He felt sorry for not being able to raise his children, take care of his parents, and feel sorry for his wife hiding in the backyard.

Driven by the desire to survive, he cried and begged for mercy.

"No matter how many parents and children you have, go and cook. If you run a restaurant and close it, who are you going to starve to death?" The Wu Zu who was speaking couldn't wait to find a seat and sit down. "Hurry up, hurry up, bring the delicious food and drinks in your restaurant, quickly--"

The others were also hungry.

Only the restaurant owner was still in shock, his expression was frozen, his eyes were blank, and he was stunned for a moment before he reacted. He didn't know what these soldiers were up to, but he knew he wouldn't die for the time being. When he wanted to stand up, he found that his legs were as soft as dough.

"Still not going?"

The restaurant owner did not dare to disobey and stood up three times, falling twice.

Wu Zu winked at his colleagues and whispered, "Go ahead and keep an eye on them. After all, they are imported items, so we can't take them lightly."

"Okay, I'll go take a look."

All the waiters in the restaurant had run away, so the boss had to do all the kitchen chores by himself. Fortunately, the boss was a cook before he started his own business, so his cooking skills were a little rusty but still acceptable. Soon, several trays of noodles were served: "My dear soldiers, please wait——"

It's not going to work at all.

As soon as the food was served, the soldiers started to fight for it with their hands and feet like hungry tigers. Two of them stared at the same drawer, and their palms created phantoms. In the end, the third person, who was more skilled, secretly reached out and took the food away while the two were fighting.

The boss didn't even see clearly and the table was empty.

"Not enough, not enough. Go prepare more."

“It’s not as delicious as the logistics one, but it’s still edible.”

The companion was filled with anger and said, "What do you mean by barely edible? You feel wronged when I ask you to eat it, right? Didn't you just reach out and steal my portion? Don't think I can't see you just because someone is pestering me! Boss, I don't want his portion anymore."

"No, no, no - I was just kidding, I was just kidding."

boss:"……"

Looking at the fierce-looking guys, stretching their necks to look at him, the boss felt like he was looking at a few yellow dogs in the kitchen waiting for dinner. Every time he fed the yellow dogs, their tails would wag in circles, which was actually quite cute.

  The boss was almost scared to death when he realized what he was thinking. If the evil spirit knew what he was thinking, his whole family would be buried with him!

Go to the kitchen and prepare food honestly.

However, the food cannot be served as fast as the hungry wolves rushing to grab the food.

The boss was sweating profusely in the kitchen, almost dying of exhaustion. His wife, who was hiding in the dark, could not bear to see this and could not help but come out. It was obvious that these soldiers had bad tempers and big appetites, and she was afraid that her husband would be killed by the other party if he served the dishes too slowly.

Wu Zu, who was squatting in the kitchen to monitor food safety issues, glanced at her and said, "You and your husband have a good relationship."

There are many couples in this world who flee separately when disaster strikes.

The proprietress laughed twice.

With the help of the proprietress in preparing the dishes, the process was indeed much faster. The soldiers who were watching also helped to light the fire and watch the stove.

This meal lasted an hour before stopping.

The few people were finally satisfied and the restaurant was out of ingredients.

The couple hoped that the couple would be satisfied with the meal and be able to spare their lives, and waited anxiously for the result - the result was that the couple collected money and threw it on the table. A dozen copper coins swung on the table for a long time before they stopped. One of the soldiers patted his stomach with satisfaction and threatened the two: "Pay the bill, remember to refund if there is more and add if there is less."

If this restaurant dares to overcharge customers, be careful of being beaten.

The boss and his wife: “…”

It took him a while to react, and he hastily pushed the money back, his face looking anxious and ready to cry: "No, no, I dare not, today's meal is just my hospitality to you, I hope you don't mind my poor hospitality, how dare I take your money."

Although it was great to have a free meal, no one wanted to be punished for it. "I told you to take the money, so why are you talking so much nonsense? How can you open a store without charging money? Or is yours a black shop, and you don't charge money for other purposes? Huh?"

The boss and his wife opened their eyes wide: "..."

I am shocked that there are such evil people in the world who turn the tables!

Are they a shady shop, or are these people bad customers?

I had no choice but to accept the money.

There will be some troubles during settlement.

The copper coins collected by these Wuzu were of various kinds. Among them were copper coins from the Kang State, as well as copper coins minted by the Geng State, copper coins minted by the Xin State, and even copper coins from the Wu State, which had been destroyed for more than a hundred years, as well as some copper coins from countries that had never been heard of and most of which had already been destroyed.

Each copper coin has a different weight.

Even small pieces of silver have different purities.

As you can imagine, this settlement is a complicated project.

The boss and his wife spent most of the day calculating the amount, and the change was accurate to the copper coin. The soldiers watched the whole process quietly.

Some were just daydreaming, while others were following the calculations.

The copper coins Wu Zu took out were in a mess, and the money box where the boss and his wife kept their money was even messier. At a glance, you could see more than a dozen different copper coins. Wu Zu sighed and said, "The world is so big, and there are hundreds of copper coins. It's not easy for you to do business."

The boss chuckled twice.

The issue of collecting money is indeed a pain point.

However, you will get used to it after a long time.

Wu Zu had other ideas: "It's so troublesome to settle the bill every time. How many tables of guests can you serve in a day? If you settle the bill with our Kangguo copper coins, maybe the business will be better."

This saves a lot of effort at the checkout stage.

The boss continued to smile awkwardly, not daring to speak easily. The other soldiers thought he was too talkative, "These are the things that the master and his men are worried about. Even a pig like you can think of them, how could they not know? It's useless for you to just mention it, there has to be a way to solve it."

Wu Zu was choked.

Coinage is no small matter.

One thing affects the whole body, so all aspects must be considered.

Since the founding of Kangguo, the new coins minted by Kangguo have only been circulated in a small range. It is not that the Kangguo royal court does not want to, but it is unrealistic to replace the old coins with new coins all at once, and the disadvantages outweigh the advantages. Another important reason is that Kangguo itself does not have so many raw materials for minting new coins. It can only mint new coins while exchanging and recycling old coins, and then recast the recycled old coins into new coins.

The whole process may last more than a hundred years, or even longer.

The prerequisite is that Kangguo can last for so many years.

The group left after eating and drinking.

The boss and his wife went out and watched them see him off.

Until the figure went away, a few people's conversation could be heard faintly in the air: "The food here is not bad, we can come again next time."

"Next time?"

"Now that we have conquered the capital, shouldn't we take a break for a few days?"

"I heard that the higher-ups have issued a military order, so we can't rest..."

"Ah, then we can come and eat when we pass by..."

The Wuzu group walked farther and farther away and completely disappeared at the corner of the street.

The couple was still confused. They couldn't believe that they were both safe and sound.

"Oh my God, these evil spirits didn't rob, smash or kill people, but just came in to eat? And they even paid our bill after meal? Boss, this is not a dream?" The proprietress pinched the boss's sturdy waist, and he didn't shout for a long time.

Phew, it really was a dream.

Then I heard the boss gasp.

The capital was particularly lively today, and every restaurant was packed. Regardless of reputation, they were all so busy that it made people question their lives. A waiter wiped his sweaty head and took a break from his busy schedule to take a breath: "What a ghost! Didn't they say that the enemy broke in? They came in and didn't rob or occupy us, just to get a bite of our food?"

Just as I finished complaining, I heard shouting again in the hall.

The waiter stood up subconsciously and said, "Sir, I'm here~"

These people not only know how to eat, but also know how to pay. They are unwilling to lose a penny, nor do they want to be taken advantage of. They also don't want the shopkeeper to give them a small change. They are really a group of weird people!

What was even more bizarre was that some local hooligans had not heard of the news and did not know what had happened during the day. They thought that today was just like any other day, so they came in groups of three or five to extort protection money. The shopkeeper hesitated and kept winking at the hooligans, telling them to get out as soon as possible.

The land thugs naturally refused.

"Your store is doing so well today that you almost ran out of business, and you still dare to say you're not making any money? I think you don't want to open the store anymore!"

Roll up your sleeves, show your fists and get to work.

Then, and then no more.

Someone grabbed his collar, his feet were off the ground, and he was thrown out before he could even struggle: "Who dares to cause trouble?"

The thug was hit on the butt and became angry and humiliated.

"Brothers, smash this store!"

This group of local hooligans who were rampantly collecting protection fees and even ignored the government were all thrown out with one leg broken. The more arrogant they were when they threatened to smash the store, the more embarrassed they were when they broke their legs and screamed. The shopkeeper and the clerk were dumbfounded, and turned their heads in disbelief to look at the evil spirits who continued to chat and laugh in the store. The two rubbed their eyes hard, making sure that the scene in front of them was not an illusion.

"This this--"

The land thugs who even the officials refused to touch were taught a lesson by the evil spirit?

"Well done! Well done!"

Who among the nearby businessmen has not been bullied by this gang? Relying on the support of a noble brother-in-law, they extort money from ordinary people. The victims have reported to the authorities several times but nothing has been done. They never thought that the one who would give them retribution would be the enemy!

  No, this is not an enemy!

This is a lovable benefactor!

The shopkeeper was delighted and gave each table a small dish.

The high-ranking officials in the capital were miserable, but the people in the capital were peaceful and happy. The common people saw that no one was coming to rape or rob, and there were no tragic scenes or screams outside, so they came out of their hiding places one by one with doubts. For one night, they just lived their lives as usual.

In stark contrast to the brightly lit streets and markets was the palace, where only a few lights were still on, and from time to time soldiers were seen carrying corpses out. The palace was empty, and the palace servants either ran away with the money or died tragically on the sword, and they collected more than a hundred corpses.

Some of them did not die on the spot, but died from excessive blood loss. Judging from the wounds, they should have died at the hands of the same person.

Qian Yong sighed as he looked at the mountains of corpses.

"You are really capable of doing this."

After identification by the survivors, it was found that there was also a concubine among them.

Qian Yong cursed with contempt: "You old man, you can even kill your own woman. You are worse than a beast."

The King of Zhen looked up at him with contempt: "What do you know? I am trying to help them suffer less! If they fall into your hands, you will reward them to your subordinates and let them suffer the humiliation of being ridden by thousands of people? It is better for them to die, put an end to it all, and preserve their chastity."

This is often the fate of the wives and daughters of the vanquished.

The lucky ones can survive.

However, what's the point of surviving after encountering such a thing? It would bring shame to the ancestors. The King of Zhen couldn't stand such humiliation, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with his behavior.

Qian Yong: "...You are slandering too much!"

  He did give captured women away as rewards. There was nothing wrong with admitting this. Even if his master asked him so, Qian Yong would have given the same answer - which warlord had not done this?

But this kind of sexual abuse is not necessary.

Qian Yong was not so mean as to vent the hatred between men on women. It was not because he had a high standard of values, but because he was just a general who had come out to fight. No one could guarantee that he could be invincible. Leaving a way out for other people's wives and daughters was also to protect his own wife and daughters.

Qian Yong didn't like to do things to the extreme.

Such slander is even more intolerable.

Qian Yong wanted to kick the other person's head: "Tsk, you know so much about this, you must have done a lot of this before, right?"

King Zhen: "You are slandering people with empty words!"

Qian Yong thought that this was the lowest point of his classmates, but he never thought that there was something even more destructive. His trusted subordinate suddenly came in and said, "General, we just found a living person. His identity is a bit... What do you think we should do with this person?"

"Who?"

The official looked at the King of Zhen and said, "It's the former princess."

Her Royal Highness Wang Ji, the only daughter of the King of Zhen.

Qian Yong sneered, muttering in his heart that his old classmate was unfaithful to women, but had some humanity towards his blood relatives. How could he not solve the problem together? The next second, he was slapped in the face by his subordinates: "Her condition is not too good. I have sent a military doctor to stop the bleeding."

The King of Zhen stood up and asked, "She's not dead?"

  How come he didn’t die from that sword strike?

Qian Yong: "..."

The old beast not only killed women, but even spared his daughter?

Qian Yong found this behavior incomprehensible.

"Calling you a beast is an insult to the beast!"

The King of Zhen had a grim face.

His sword was indeed merciless, not only cutting off his daughter's hands, but also splitting her chest. Fortunately, her ribs blocked it, so it didn't go too deep. After the King of Zhen State chopped her off, he thought she was dead for sure, and didn't stay to confirm whether she was dead or not.

She fainted briefly and then woke up in severe pain.

Using the hands that lost half of the arm, he crawled away driven by a strong desire to survive, with blood trailing along the way. The warrior followed the blood trail to find Wang Ji, whose life was hanging by a thread. He thought she was dead, but after careful observation, he found that she was still alive, and gave her first aid on the spot.

Barely saved his life.

It’s a pity that only half of the forearm is left.

Judging from the wound, she must have crossed her arms subconsciously to block the sword, but ended up having her hands cut off by the sword. Fortunately, she blocked it, otherwise she would have died long ago. Qian Yong sighed when he heard this, and his mind turned, and a brilliant idea suddenly emerged.

He caressed his classmate's dog's head.

"Guess, does your daughter hate you, or does she hate you?"

Kangguo destroyed a country in three days because of a disagreement. If this matter were spread, it would easily lead to criticism and public opinion would be passive. However, this princess survived, and there are many things that can be done. It would be best to use the princess to appease the old ministers and survivors of Zhenguo.

  |ω`)

Qian Yong: "I am definitely the most intelligent among the generals."

PS: After playing Jiansan for many years, I am back with Wujie. Today I cleared the dungeon alone, but there was no drop. It was as bad as ever. I was just surprised to find that the Jianqi that I was obsessed with back then has remarried, and is pointing fingers at me.

PPS: Hey, it’s better to be a paper man, the three-dimensional world has a lot of troubles. The thing I talked about yesterday, Xianggu thought that the old house was too hot, so he simply bought an air conditioner (but the courier was too bad, such a clear address was sent to the wrong area, it should have been ordered the day before and delivered the next day, but it’s already the fourth day). As a result, the relative actually said to others, "She is so rich, will she carry the two old guys when they die? Buy an air conditioner, will she also buy a house?"

It's so funny. I paid for the construction of the old house. What nonsense are you talking about?

  I was just watching the drama of this family's troubles. I only felt sympathy for the situation of my relatives and parents, but I didn't want to intervene. It was just that the 80-year-old couple was really innocent, so I felt compassion. And I didn't necessarily buy an air conditioner for the living. Can't I use it to cool down the portraits of my grandparents in the old house? How could you be so mean to me!

Pound the ground!

Hey, tilt your head.

I found that this family really always holds grudges but never remembers kindness. The top beam is crooked and the bottom beam is crooked. It was like this before and it is like this now.
