Song Dynasty female artist

Chapter 830 We are very disciplined
A calm night passed.

When the shopkeeper saw them in the morning, his appearance was completely different from last night.

"Sir, our shop does not provide breakfast. If you want to have breakfast, go out and turn right. There is a noodle stall there, as well as steamed buns. They taste pretty good, but they are a bit expensive."

Fang Mengfu: "We have already stayed in an inn that costs twenty taels of silver a night. How can it be more expensive than this?"

But soon, Fang Mengfu saw how expensive the shopkeeper said it was.

"How much does a bun cost?"

Fang Mengfu was really unoccupied this time, and his voice suddenly rose. Just such a broken bun, a small one, cost twenty coins a piece, how dare he shout.

The vendor rolled his eyes at Fang Mengfu and kept wrapping his buns. He also said, "If it's too expensive, don't eat it."

"If you don't want to eat, don't eat."

Fang Mengfu turned around and went to the next stall to ask about the price, but got the same answer.

"With such a high price, one bun can buy a chicken. How can ordinary people afford it?"

Su Yixin glanced at the vendors in front of her one by one and said, "These vendors have very sharp eyes. They can tell the difference between locals and outsiders at a glance. That's why they shout high prices for travelers passing by."

Puqi County has a special location. Further southwest is Yueyang. Whether they are travelers or businessmen, there are many people passing by here, and they are not lacking in business.

Feel confident.

The locals can bring wealth by setting up a stall and shouting prices at will. As for the travelers and merchants passing by, their money is not blown by the strong wind, but also earned through hard work.

"Eat. After eating, we will go meet the county magistrate here and see what the parents and officials of Puqi County look like!"

Zhao Rui took the lead and sat down on a stool nearby, letting the accompanying guards eat as they pleased.

He wanted to see how much money he could get for breakfast.

After eating and paying the bill, the boss's calculations started to fly, and he finally said cheerfully: "Sir, there are twenty-two of you, and the total is four taels and three dollars."

Su Yixin and the others were eight in total, plus the fourteen guards who were following them.

A bowl of noodles plus six steamed buns for a guard costs 45 mun for a bowl of noodles and 20 mun for a steamed bun. Each person costs 165 mun, and together they cost 1,470 mun.

There were eight of them, each had a bowl of noodles and two steamed buns, which together cost 680 yuan.

A total of two thousand one hundred and fifty articles.

Converted into silver, more than 20 years ago, one tael of silver was about 600 cash. Now, one tael of silver is about 500 cash, which is four taels or three coins.

very good!
Fang Mengfu was no longer as angry as before. He signaled the guard to pay, and then went straight to the local county government.

The local county government offices are very impressive. Zhao Rui has been to more than a dozen county offices in the past two months since he came out of Kyoto, and this one looks the most impressive.

"Who are you?"

"The businessmen going south want to meet your county magistrate."

The officer drove them away impatiently: "Let's go, let's go. There is no place where people like you can see our county magistrate. Hurry up and leave!"

"Master Cha is very accommodating. We are just passing by and want to get to know the county magistrate. We have no other intention."

After Su Yixin finished speaking, she put a piece of silver into the hand of the officer, and when she touched it, it was ten taels.

As soon as the money was obtained, the servant's attitude immediately changed. His explicit eyes fell on Su Yixin, he looked at her from head to toe, and finally put away his money: "Okay, for the sake of you being so polite, just go in with me." Okay, remember not to run around and don’t talk nonsense for a while, do you understand?”

"Yes, we all follow the rules."

"So much the better."

Su Yixin's smile became sweeter and sweeter.

The officer said "Hmm" proudly and walked in to lead them.

The backyard of the government office is really a scene.

You can see more than a dozen gardeners tending to the flowers and plants, and a man in his early forties is standing next to him. He is holding a small purple clay pot. He takes a sip and says: "Look at these flowers carefully." But they are all expensive varieties. If they are damaged, you will not be able to afford them even if they are sold."

"That's Master Wu." After receiving about ten taels of silver, the guard kindly "mentioned" them: "Master Wu is highly regarded by the county master. He will say more good things later."

"Something that relies on human power."

Zhao Rui cursed.

"what?"

The officer didn't hear it clearly, or maybe he heard it clearly, but he just couldn't believe that they would say such a thing.

"Nothing, I just saw a dog."

"dog?"

There are no dogs in the government office?

Could it be a wild dog that ran in from outside?
Anyway, these are not important. After bypassing a winding corridor in front, we arrived at where Master Wu was standing. The guard greeted: "I have seen Master Wu. Sir, are you up?"

Master Wu did not answer but asked: "Who are they?"

"Oh, they are tea merchants from the south. They said they were passing by and wanted to offer you some good things."

Master Wu's eyes raised.

good stuff?
He pulled the guard away and looked at the group of people.

"Are you a tea merchant?"

Although the material of his clothes and the hairpin on his head were not particularly good, his demeanor did not look like that of a businessman.

Rather, he looks like a noble person of noble status.

Fang Mengfu nodded: "Yes."

"Shouldn't it be spring for the tea merchants? There won't be any good tea at this time."

"That's spring tea."

Gu Qingjue said: "It's never too late for good tea, especially rich families who like to drink old tea that has been collected for many years."

Only then did Master Wu get rid of his doubts. In this place, the mountains are high and the emperor is far away. How could a noble person come here? He said to the servant: "It's not like you don't know that your Excellency won't get up until noon."

"This one……"

The officer looked at them awkwardly.

Gu Qingjue said: "It doesn't matter, we can wait and see you when you get up, sir."

"If you are sensible, take them to the Flower Hall."

After sitting down, Su Yixin used her spiritual power to investigate. Good guy, this snoring sound can lift the roof off.

How could the beauty sleeping next to him endure this? It was truly an evil feudal society.

If I had left it to the future, I would have kicked him out of bed long ago.

When I say I wake up at noon, I mean I wake up at noon. I let my servants dress and wash myself without any rush. I also joked with the beauty before going to the flower hall.

"Are you looking for me?"

The county magistrate appeared in the flower hall with empty steps, and immediately took a look at Su Yixin sitting beside him.

Su Yixin glanced at the county magistrate indifferently. He had a big pig-headed face, black eyes, and sloppy steps. He was just a sensual and lascivious idiot.

"What a beauty."

There was no one else in Magistrate Qi's eyes, and his eyes almost dropped.

"You are such a beautiful woman. If you want to see me, you don't have to wait. You all can go down. I want to talk to this beauty alone."

Su Yixin smiled happily, grabbed the county magistrate's collar in disgust, and looked up at him: "How do you want to talk to me, sir?"
