Xiliang Iron Cavalry

Chapter 360 : Wooden Box 【Subscription】

The matter of the restaurant was just an episode, Jia Rong didn't take it seriously at all, like this kind of rich man who bullies the common people, Jia Rong definitely won't have any good feelings.

After returning to his residence, Jia Rong began to think about his plan to enter Jingzhou this time. Yingchuan Academy is going to meet Zhuge Liang, who is famous for future generations. There are many talents in Jingxiang. , But will those Confucian scholars buy their own account? At this time, Jia Rong has the mentality of a businessman. As long as someone is willing to follow him, he will make money.

Jia Rong, dressed in ordinary clothes, was walking on Jinling Street. Looking at the bustling pedestrians, Jia Rong couldn't help but think of the same prosperous Luoyang. , It is impossible to recover without the situation of ten or eight years. There are still white waves and yellow turbans in the Central Plains, and the people are even more destitute.

Pushing aside the dense crowd, Jia Rong saw two ragged civilians lying on the side of the street, one of them was a woman with a pretty face and a bit of beauty, but her dirty clothes made people look Unsightly, only ten or ten years old, the other person has white hair, trembling lips, pale face, eyes full of longing for the onlookers.

Unexpectedly, there would be such a poor beggar in the bustling place of Jinling. He reached into his arms and found that all he carried was gold, so he asked Zhao Yun for some.

Jia Rong leaned over and put a few hundred dollars in front of the two of them. Chinese people, no matter in ancient or modern times, like to watch the excitement and are unwilling to lend a helping hand.

"Thank you, sir, thank you, sir!" The young woman kowtowed continuously, her forehead slightly flushed from excessive force.

Jia Rong waved his hand and said, "Take the money to eat something, find something to do, and support the family."

The white-haired old man also fell to his knees excitedly. Human life is as cheap as a dog in troubled times. The old man did not expect to receive such a sum of money. A few hundred dollars is just a drop in the bucket for Jia Rong, but it is a drop in the bucket for the two of them. Life-saving food and money.

Turn around and leave. If Jia Rong appeared as a general, he would definitely not give a little charity to the beggars. People can only win the respect of others by their own continuous efforts. People who survive only on charity can only be called spineless. In ancient times, there may have been no industry dedicated to begging to make money, and these people are indeed pitiful, but the Xiliang Army is not a philanthropist. He is only responsible for giving the people a job that can lead to prosperity, not directly giving them money.

Death is inherent in a person, and it is heavier than a feather, or lighter than Mount Tai. A vigorous death on the battlefield is the same as an unknown death. Why not choose a grander death method.

"That man, stop!" A voice shouted from behind.

Jia Rong stopped in his tracks, turned around and looked back, and said in a slightly dissatisfied tone: "Why are you everywhere, what are you talking about?"

The young master's expression froze slightly, and he said proudly: "You just gave those two people more than 300 yuan, but I gave you a thousand yuan, how about it?"

The people onlookers were stunned by the changes before and after, and there were still comparisons in giving alms. Could it be that the two people in front of them had some festivals and insisted on competing against each other. The trace of respect for Jia Rong has also turned into awe. Rich people don't care about hundreds of dollars at all. They can make ordinary people live for more than a month with a single meal or continuation.

Some people may say that they are relying on the power of their ancestors, but they are more envious because they don't even have the qualifications to squander.

Jia Rong stepped forward and continued his journey without any entanglement with the young master.

After walking less than a hundred meters, Jia Rong stopped and walked into a shop called "Bao Wu Zhai". Ever since he got the Celestial Silkworm Armor in Luoyang last time, it saved his life in a critical moment. Jia Rong fell in love with this kind of shop. shop.

Jia Rong stared blankly at the owner of the shop, and said in disbelief: "You, you..."

After seeing this abnormality, Zhao Yun hurried to Jia Rong's side, staring at the shop owner with piercing eyes.

After many life-and-death battles, Zhao Yun's eyes were so sharp, but the owner of the shop was still fiddling with the things in his hands as before, without the slightest pause.

Realizing the extraordinaryness of the person in front of him, Jia Rong smiled and said, "I wonder if there are any treasures in the store?" I didn't pay much attention to this person when I was in Luoyang before.

The owner of the shop smiled and said, "Master, the treasure has been sold out, please go elsewhere." He didn't seem to recognize Jia Rong, and he still lowered his head and fiddled with the things in his hands.

Jia Rong looked curiously at the things in the shop owner's hands. From a distance, it looked like a small box, but upon closer inspection, there were densely packed holes in it. The things in the treasure room that could be played by the shop owner repeatedly were definitely not ordinary products.

Since the owner of the shop was unwilling to say anything, Jia Rong didn’t force it either. He walked around in the not-so-big shop and kept looking at the layout of the shop. The only thing that catches the eye, the only thing that can attract Jia Rong is the wooden box in the owner's hand.

Jia Rong didn't know if the owner of Treasure House in front of him knew him. In Luoyang City, there were only a handful of people who had seen him. Even after replacing Dong Zhuo's position in Luoyang, they rarely showed up. The owner of Baobaozhai who has met once will have an impression of himself.

"Baowuzhai, the name sounds quite big, but I don't know what kind of things it sells?"

Jia Rong felt a bit overwhelmed, this rich man was like a follower, he had been clinging to himself since the two conversations in the restaurant, and wanted to teach him a lesson in a place where no one was around, but remembering that this is Jingzhou, it is not appropriate to cause trouble, so he suppressed his anger down.

"Young master, the treasures in the shop have been sold out, please move to another place." The owner of the shop unceremoniously issued an order to evict customers.

The young master was speechless for a moment, he didn't expect to encounter setbacks repeatedly in the small Jinling after walking out of the mansion, even a small shop owner dared to speak nonsense.

"Presumptuous, do you know who my little... son is? Be careful that your business can't be done." The servant behind the son immediately stood up and scolded.

Jia Rong was happy to be at leisure, standing aside and watching the young master and the owner of the shop, just now it was not suitable for him to test the owner of Baowuzhai, and it happened that this young master satisfied this idea.

The owner of the shop still lowered his head and fiddled with the things in his hands, as if he was tireless, with a calm expression.

The young master's face was a little uneasy, and he said to the servant behind him: "Go to the street and find some soldiers, the owner of the small shop dares to bully this young master."

Jia Rong felt a little funny when the son beat his chest and stamped his feet when he spoke.

After about a cup of tea, five soldiers broke into the Treasure Room, and their menacing appearance made the atmosphere in the Treasure Room suddenly tense.

Jia Rong looked at the weapons in the hands of the soldiers and shook his head slightly. These weapons seemed to have been stored in the warehouse for many years and were taken out for temporary use. The tip of the spear had not been wiped for a long time, and there were faint rusts.

Jinling is an important place in Jingzhou, most of the food and supplies are stored here, and there are not a few soldiers stationed in the city.

Zhao Yun stood in front of Jia Rong warily, watching the five soldiers warily.

The young master waved his hand at the owner of the shop, and said boldly: "This person doesn't listen to my young master's orders, arrest him!"

Jia Rong couldn't stop laughing secretly, it seems that this son's nature is not bad, otherwise he would not use this excuse to arrest the owner of Baobaozhai.

The soldiers looked at each other, and under the order of the squad leader, they went to the owner of Baobaozhai.

The master of Baobaozhai raised his lowered head in a rare way, and looked at the soldiers approaching him with a calm expression.

Jia Rong suddenly found that the owner of the shop was looking at him with a stern look. For some reason, it gave Jia Rong a sense of danger, just like when Wang Yue stabbed him back then. Find something from that face that never changes.

"In broad daylight, the world is bright and the world is bright, and he is doing something wrong in Jinling. I don't know how Liu Jingzhou will react when he finds out about this matter." Jia Rong said loudly after a long time to no avail.

"Come back, take these two people back first!" The young master's outstretched hand changed direction, pointing at Jia Rong and Zhao Yun.

Jia Rong looked at the young master pointing to his right hand, his expression was slightly moved, it was so delicate and lubricated, he was worthy of being a son of a rich family, he was pampered, and he didn't know the sufferings of ordinary people.

Zhao Yun raised his footsteps lightly, landed heavily one meter away from Jia Rong, and looked coldly at the five soldiers.

The soldiers looked embarrassed, and with their eyesight, they could naturally see Zhao Yun's extraordinaryness, but he didn't dare to disobey the young master's order, and rushed forward bravely.

Fists and shadows intertwined, and the sound of thumping in the treasure room was endless. In the blink of an eye, Zhao Yun overturned five soldiers to the ground. Zhao Yun's kung fu has improved rapidly since he joined the Xiliang Army.

Hearing the painful wailing of the soldiers, the young master's expression changed drastically, and he looked at Zhao Yun as if facing an enemy.

Jia Rong stepped forward and said with a smile: "Young master, my subordinates are not bad at all?"

The young master nodded dully, the servant had already hid behind the young master in fright, without any awareness of being a servant.

"Jingzhou is not the place for you, go back earlier!" The owner of the store suddenly raised his head and said, perhaps to thank Jia Rong for his kindness.

Jia Rong was startled, and turned his gaze to the owner of the treasure house. The person in front of him must know his identity.

"Haha, the world is so big, you can't go anywhere!" Jia Rong laughed loudly.

The shop owner said without raising his head, "That's all for now!"

The rich man on one side was stunned by Zhao Yun's punches and kicks, his expression was dull, he didn't know what he was thinking, and he didn't care about the conversation between Jia Rong and the shop owner.

"Shopkeeper, how about I would pay [-] yuan for the wooden box in your hand?"

The rich man’s expression that had just returned to normal became dull again. A rotten wooden box costs [-] yuan. Is there anything more absurd than this in the world? All the words such as spend money like dirt and prodigal son are all used by the young man on Jia Rong. .

The shopkeeper gave a faint "Oh" and said, "20 yuan!"

To read the original book, it only costs more than two yuan a month, which is nothing to you, but it is the greatest affirmation to the author. I also hope that friends who like cavalry can come to the Internet to support the cliff, thank you.
