The Shopkeeper of All Worlds in the British Wizarding World

Chapter 79 Ren Jiazhen (please collect, please recommend)
Not to mention how the guards divided the money, Ryan silently observed the city after entering the county seat.This county town is still quite prosperous. There are many small vendors selling goods on the main street, and there are dozens of shops lined up along the street. The shops even sell foreign things such as matches and kerosene.

, After all, this is just a relatively remote county town, and there are not many people dressed like Ryan.So when he was walking on the street, he attracted the attention of many local residents.Ryan could even hear them talking.

"Whose young master is this, I seem to have never seen it before?"

"Look, isn't he just a fake foreign devil? Look at his vigor."

"But it's really rich. Looking at the fabric of that dress, it probably costs several dollars to buy it."

……

Ryan really didn't want to stand on the street and be watched like visiting animals, so after turning around, he walked into the largest restaurant on the street.

The waiter warmly invited Ryan into the store, and Ryan asked for a private room upstairs to sit.Because I just had dinner, and it's not time for dinner.So he took out five or six silver Sickles and put them on the table.Then he ordered to Xiao Er: "Go, let me serve a pot of tea for the young master, and three or four teas that I have chosen. Then tell me about the strange things around here, and the money will be yours."

"Okay, young master, you wait."

Xiaoer sang happily, then bowed and retreated.

After Xiao Er left, Ryan began to look at the furnishings in the house. The objects inside were antique, and the large pieces of furniture were all made of solid wood, and the workmanship was exquisite.It seems that these handicrafts have not been forgotten in this era.

However, as the private room of the largest restaurant in the county, there are still some things that can reflect the changes of the times.For example, there is a hot water bottle in the corner.And on a table there is an old gramophone.Of course, this antiquity refers to Ryan's era, which is a real fashionable and popular item.

It’s just that there should be no electricity in the county, so there are still candlesticks on the cabinet (of course not kerosene lamps, what does the smell of kerosene look like when you eat in a high-end restaurant?), I guess all big cities use electric lights now, but such a Small counties are not so trendy yet. Of course, the infrastructure is not enough, and there is no power plant at all is also a very important reason.

After about half an hour, Xiao Er came up with a plate.In the center of the plate is a porcelain pot and a teacup, and around the pot are four plates.

"This is the latest Lu'an melon slice this spring. It is a private product left by the boss. It is soaked in the best local spring water. These four are lotus cake, sweet-scented osmanthus cake, almond tofu and sweet-scented osmanthus Dingsheng cake. Master, please take it easy .”

Ryan looked at these things and nodded, then threw the silver Sickle to the waiter.Then he asked: "Are there any strange things around here? Young master, I like to hear this the most. If it is interesting, I will reward you."

Because modern people live well, the 12-year-old Ryan looks like he is fourteen or fifteen years old, and he can already be the head of the family in this age.In addition, Ryan's Mandarin accent is very close to the Beijing accent of this era.The waiter mistakenly thought that Ryan was a big shot from the capital, so he put the silver coins in his pocket, nodded and bowed and said:
"If you want to talk about strange things, you are right to ask me..."

While talking, Xiao Er reached into his pocket to touch the silver coins.With so many years of experience in welcoming and sending, Xiaoer can tell that these silver coins are real, and they are purer than the oceans he has seen.

Stimulated by the money, Xiao Er happily told a few rumors that he didn't know the truth or falsehood, but they were all about someone's daughter-in-law stealing someone, and a man from his family who was caught from the brothel by his family's Hedong lion and beat him with a black nose and a swollen face. things.

Ryan is not interested in this kind of gossip, so he interrupted Xiaoer and said, "I want to know what strange people and strange things are around me, and I don't want to hear these short stories."

Xiao Er slapped his mouth lightly with his hands after hearing this: "Look at my mouth, the young master is a noble person, so naturally he doesn't want to hear such nasty things. But if you want to talk about strange people and strange things, there are really people around here. In Renjia Town, there is a Lin Daochang who is said to be able to cast down demons and catch ghosts. He has been invited by rich people to our county town several times, so I know him."

This should be the world of "Mr. Zombie", or it may be the world of a series of zombie stories.No wonder on the way here I feel that the world is full of yin and yang.

However, in order to confirm, Ryan asked Xiao Er carefully about the situation in Renjia Town.

It turned out that the town of Renjia was thirty miles away, and its real name was Fuzhen. From the name, one could tell that there were many rich people living here.Later, the Ren family was the richest in the town for several consecutive terms until today.Therefore, after the founding of the Republic of China, it was renamed Renjia Town.

Speaking of this, Xiao Er thought of something and said: "Miss Ren's family seems to have come back from overseas, and she was wearing a foreign dress and riding a horse from the county town a while ago."

It seems that it should be the world of "Mr. Zombie", Ryan took out a few Sickles and handed them to Xiaoer, asking him to go down and help find a carriage to Renjia Town and wait downstairs.Xiaoer took the money and left with a smile on his face.

After Ryan slowly finished his tea, he went downstairs and boarded the carriage, and the carriage headed north along the dirt road.Thanks to Tolaen's suit, he has been unimpeded in several inspections on the road in this era.

An hour later, the carriage arrived at Renjia Town.This is indeed a prosperous big town, and it seems that tens of thousands of people live here.

After getting out of the car, Ryan went to ask Lin Daochang about the specific situation from the street vendor.Daochang is indeed a local celebrity, and the first sugar painting vendor Ryan met knew a lot about Daochang Lin.

After Ryan bagged a few sugar paintings he had made and distributed them to children playing on the street.The peddler knew everything about Ryan, and he couldn't stop talking.

For example, everyone is called Lin Daochang Jiushu, and he lives in a Yizhuang outside the town.

The Taoist priest has two apprentices, one is the nephew of the proprietress of the rouge shop in the town, and the other is older.

And Uncle Jiu is a very decent and good person, but he is a bit picky.So I wear an old gown all day long, even if I eat meat, I buy it for one tael or two, never more than half a catty.

"Hong Kong zombie movies, this is also a legend, and this story is the beginning of a legend." Ryan murmured silently in his heart.

Although this is a plot badly written in countless time-travel novels, Ryan still feels extremely excited if he really experiences it himself.

After all, for an uncle who was born in the 90s in his previous life, Uncle Ying's zombie movies are lingering memories of his childhood.

After inquiring about the situation in the town from the peddler, Ryan, who was sure that the plot hadn't started yet, was walking around the quaint streets while eating a leftover sugar painting.

After shopping around, Ryan walked out of the town, preparing to meet the protagonist of this world, Uncle Nine.
