Ma'am help, the general is in trouble again

Chapter 167
Zheng Quchi poked his head out and saw that Fu Rong got out of the car too.

On this trip, Fu Rong changed into a middle-aged man's face and a new identity, like a housekeeper, wearing a square hat and a blue dyed Confucian shirt, his body shape is neither fat nor thin .

Overall, quite satisfactory, not outstanding.

Fu Rong once said in a chat with her that the art of disguise is all about harmony and fusion, and a face that is too outstanding and a face that is too ugly can easily cause deviations in one person.

For example, a face that is too beautiful, but a voice that is too rough, it is not harmonious.

It's not harmonious to have a too ugly face and a graceful body.

Of course, there are such people in this world, but when changing your appearance, you should avoid causing unnecessary suspicion to others, and then observe carefully.

Therefore, every day Fu Rong disguises himself, and he likes to play some ordinary-looking, out-of-the-ordinary appearance, without any memory characteristics, which makes him feel more secure.

He rushed to Wang Zebang's side with a friendly smile on his face, which was in stark contrast to Wang Zebang's dark face.

But one sang bad faces and the other sang bad faces, but they failed to reverse the situation.

Once it was confirmed that they were from the Ye Kingdom convoy, and that they were still here to participate in the grand Jichun craftsman union, the store immediately became unwilling to entertain them.

However, due to the large number of people on the other side, none of them looked like good stubble, so the store didn't push people away like before, but deliberately used various excuses to refuse them to stay.

No matter how angry Wang Zebang questioned or how nicely Fu Rong spoke to each other, the shopkeeper just stuck his neck and refused to accept customers to stay, as if a dead pig was not afraid of boiling water.

Isn't this just relying on the fact that he is a local snake in Yongchun, and he is sure that they will not dare to make trouble no matter how annoyed they are.

Seeing the stalemate in front of him, Mu Gaoyi tilted his head back and said sadly: "We don't really want to live on the street."

It doesn't matter to Zheng Quchi, she is strong and strong, and she is not a person who seeks pleasure, she can sleep anywhere for a night.

She swept across the carriage in front, Yu Wencheng leaned against the window, he lifted the curtain, revealing half of his beautiful side face.

He didn't wear his signature outfit when he was out and about.

Now he seems to be the "Liu Fengmian" who met her at the beginning. His black hair is tied up with a simple and elegant hosta, and it is softly scattered behind his back. His eyes are covered with a thin green gauze. His lips are slightly dry, which is different from before. The moist and bright red lips were of a different color, a little haggard.

Her hand pressed against her chest involuntarily. She had never had the chance to give him the medicine she had begged for from Military Doctor Liao along the way.

And he didn't come to find her on purpose these days.

She felt that there were so many people taking care of him in the car, if he was sick, he would have caused a lot of trouble, and his injury should have improved...

He might have sensed her gaze, turned his eyes and glanced over, and met her dazed light brown eyes.

The bottom of his eyes were like a deep pool, his brows were slightly raised, his lips were also tightened, as if he couldn't restrain himself, he tilted his head and clenched his fists to cover his mouth, and a few hoarse and hissing coughs came.

...Could it be that his injury didn't get better, but got worse?
In fact, she doesn't pay much attention to his affairs, but it seems that he always makes himself sick and runs to her and shouts "pain".

She looked back.

He looked at Jinxing Inn again.

She punched her head suddenly, which caught Mu Gaoyi's attention.

"Ah Qing, what's wrong with you? Why did you hit yourself on the head?"

"Have a headache?"

"No, I just want to kill some dangerous thoughts in my mind."

After the two listened, they were at a loss.

"Huh? Ah Qing, what are you talking about?"

Zheng Quchi closed his eyes for a moment, and after opening them, he said, "I think the two of them may not be able to figure it out, I'll go down and see what's going on."

Essentially speaking, both Wang Zebang and Fu Rong were born in a noble family, and both have strategic minds, but they seldom deal with this kind of unruly people in the market. If you want to reason with them, they will act naughty. You have to talk to them If they are ruthless, they can fall to the ground and play rogues.

Therefore, they are obviously reasonable, but they have been arguing until now.

"Hey?! Ah Qing, what's the use of you going? You can still..."

They saw that Zheng Quchi was like a nimble rabbit, she lifted the curtain and jumped out of the carriage. They tried to catch up after her, but they only saw her calm back running to the inn.

They flinched a little.

To be honest, they felt that they couldn't help if they went, and besides their humble status, they couldn't gain much friendship with Adjutant Wang, so how embarrassing it was to stand there like this.

But... Ah Qing should be different from them.

-

As soon as Zheng Quchi approached, he heard the shopkeeper of Jinxing Inn say impatiently: "You two, no matter what you say, our inn will not be able to vacate rooms today. Anyway, I will refund your deposit. Hurry up and look elsewhere."

Fu Rong's complexion was not very good at the moment, and he couldn't even maintain a basic smile: "Shopkeeper, you are being unreasonable, but if there are rooms in Yongchun now, we don't have to live with you, but you didn't mention it when you booked the room. , now that you say you don’t have a house, it’s too much, isn’t it?”

"If you don't vacate the room we booked today, don't blame me for being rude." Wang Zebang glared coldly and said harsh words.

The shopkeeper was frightened by Wang Zebang's evil spirit for a moment, and after taking a step back in shock, he looked at his own people around him, and immediately said sternly, "Okay, why are you people from Ye Kingdom planning to be rude?"

Hearing this, Zheng Quchi walked over with a smile, and interrupted: "Shopkeeper, other people's houses are open for business, and they pay attention to making money through harmony, but when you come to your place, you drive customers out again and again. People feel that it’s different.”

The store owner was rolling his sleeves and preparing to get angry, but when he heard someone interrupted, he turned his head to look.

I saw a man with a green and handsome face, with a medium to short build, but his eyes were clear and bright, but he had a comfortable face.

"Who are you?" he asked angrily.

Zheng Quchi said loudly on purpose: "A just man. You should treat everyone equally when you open a store in Yongchun. This is a business rule, but you have personal grievances and prejudices, and you accept the order but turn back. Doesn't this show that Is your Jinxing Inn a store that does not respect morals and credit? Now it is the time of Jichun Craftsman Association, and you rely on the business to be good, so you will bully us strangers and choose guests to stay. If your business is bleak in the future, I see Who dares to choose such an inn that has no reputation and drives away guests at will."

They can say anything else, but once it involves their business, that's not enough.

"You, you nonsense!"

He saw that the eyes of the spectators around him began to look strange, pointing at him, and he panicked.

Of course Zheng Quchi knew the weakness of his businessman, she turned around and said to the people around: "Please take a good look at this Jinxing Inn, their store is a big bully, right now you may think it's nothing to do with you, but it's worthless like this." Once there is no basic code of conduct in a sexual inn, don’t you want to treat customers and bully them? Maybe today’s us will be tomorrow’s you.”

Her words were extremely provocative, and the matter that originally quarreled between the two parties was extended to involve everyone.

"I think Yongchun is a big city that can accommodate all rivers and rivers. The business management here is strict, open and friendly. After all, those inns welcome all visitors with smiles, but this Jinxing inn is really amazing."

The merchant who was a little dissatisfied with Zheng Quchi, a foreigner, who made a lot of nonsense here, now heard her praise the high and the low, but it was only aimed at him, Jinxing Inn, so he didn't join in the fun, but was happy One less competitor.

The storekeeper of the Jinxing Inn heard other people making noise, and then heard that the young man was sharp-tongued and deadly with swords and knives. She said "severe" on the left and "no reputation" on the right, calling him a wronged man, and he couldn't be fierce even if he wanted to. .

If there is a real commotion and mentioning the cause and effect, wouldn't it completely ruin the reputation of their Jinxing Inn?

That won't work!

However, the shop owner has opened the shop all year round and has encountered many difficult customers, and he is not a stupid person.

He immediately retorted with his lips: "Our Jinxing Inn is welcomed by everyone else, but only the artisans of your country of Ye make us look down on them. Everyone knows that your country of Ye has no craftsmen and no skills, but you still want to come to participate The Jichun Artisan Association competes with other artisans from the Six Kingdoms for a room, and if they are shortlisted, our Jinxing Inn will still flourish, but if you live here, it will only be notorious."

These words are simply throwing the face of the craftsmen of Ye Kingdom on the ground, and crushing them hard.

The evil fire that Zheng Quchi had been smothering from the very beginning suddenly burst forth all at once.

"Oh, do you mean that because the craftsmen of Ye Kingdom are incapable, you have a reason to reject the guests and completely ignore what the other party ordered?"

"It's not that I don't want to unsubscribe, there is a shortage of rooms right now, so why don't I stick to those people who come to our Yongchun to do real business, and first rely on you people who just come to join in the fun and can't even touch the threshold of the Jichun Artisan Association? "

The shopkeeper can indeed speak, and when he said this, he turned the wind around again.

"Don't be so hard-nosed." Zheng Quchi looked at him calmly, and asked lightly: "How do you define what you call capable and incapable? It would be too one-sided to distinguish by country. Why don't you come up with a standard?" Come on, let's try it?"

Hearing her big talk, if the store owner hadn't been aroused by her for revenge at the beginning, he might have dismissed it with ridicule and ridicule, but now, he couldn't rest in his breath, and wanted to call this ignorant man to speak in public. Embarrassed!

He walked to the gate of their Jinxing Inn, and pointed to the thick doorpost, "You want to prove that your Ye country craftsmen are capable, right? Well, do you see this doorpost?"

Zheng Quchi looked at the position he was pointing at, and saw a relief doorpost with decent craftsmanship, but... "Why is it only half carved?"

At this time, a bystander said: "Isn't this the half of the carved pillars that their owner deliberately left when they opened the inn? He said that he is a craftsman with outstanding craftsmanship, and few people can compare. He also said that if anyone can complete it, he Just exempt the other party's board and lodging expenses for a whole year."

Board and lodging for a whole year?

How much is that?
When Zheng Quchi heard this, her calm expression suddenly changed, her eyes turned green, and she was eager to try.

Unexpectedly, such a good thing can still happen?
"Not to mention, there are so many people coming and going here, and after looking at them all, no one dares to try the challenge."

"I heard that it is very difficult. The first difficulty lies in the skill, the second difficulty lies in restoring the opponent's carvings, and the third difficulty... I don't know. In short, everyone who has seen it said it is difficult."

Hearing these people's discussion, the shopkeeper raised his chin triumphantly, and said proudly: "That's right, this is our owner's carving technique that is astonishing to the past, don't you think your craftsmen from Ye Kingdom can do it too? If not, why don’t you challenge it in public?”

What?
The carving technique that shocks the past and the present?
Isn't this just an ordinary embossing process?
And, to be honest, it's so crudely done that it's a dish in the eyes of a true master carver.

Zheng Quchi smiled and bent his eyes, and said happily, "Okay."

Seeing her answering so frankly, the store owner and the people around her were all amazed.

The shopkeeper only thought of her as an ignorant person, or a person with a brain problem at all, but never believed that she was really knowledgeable.

"You, you let her decide?"

The shop owner did not forget Wang Zebang and Fu Rong who appeared at the beginning, and now the young man said that he would challenge for them, this must be wrong, he naturally had to ask carefully.

As for Wang Zebang and Fu Rong, since the general's wife appeared to take control of the audience, they automatically became "invisible people" and stopped talking.

At this moment, the two "invisible people" were pulled out by the store for questioning, and they all replied in unison: "This matter, she has the full power to decide."

The shopkeeper was a little surprised when he heard this.

This young man seems to be not as well-dressed as these two, but seeing the attitude of these two when they mentioned her, there is an inexplicable feeling of being subordinate to the superior and the subordinate.

This thing is quite strange.

But at this moment, the shopkeeper didn't think much about it. Seeing their approval, he said with a look of success: "Okay, okay, you are really confused, okay, if she accepts this challenge, if she fails in a while , I have agreed in advance that your deposit will not be refunded."

The owner of the Jinxing Inn clearly didn't have this in the original opening conditions. This was a temporary increase by the owner himself.

It doesn't matter, he upped the ante, and Zheng Quchi also added: "Then if I succeed, you will give our team free of board and lodging expenses for one year."

The shopkeeper's eyes widened when he heard it: "What a big tone. Let's see what kind of craft is the carving on the doorpost. Can you catch it? Don't think that you can do it just by knowing some carvings. Let me tell you, if you can really complete it, I will promise, but if you fail, you will have to pay for our doorpost!"

Zheng Quchi raised his eyebrows: "You're the one who speaks loudly, then let's make an agreement here, everyone will bear witness, and we cannot go back on our word."

The shopkeeper was full of confidence at the moment. He touched his big belly and sneered, "Whoever repents is the grandson."

Very well, in her life, what she likes the most is this kind of arrogant and ignorant, rich and powerful person.
