Fisherman's Song Dynasty

Everyone was stunned there, even Kou Qiaoyi who was beside him covered his mouth in surprise and looked at the roll of red cloth in disbelief.

Xu Zizhen quickly understood the mystery of this: "See, this means that we have been dropped?"

Liu Feng Sui was so angry that his face turned blue, and he said angrily: "You hateful shopkeepers, how dare you cheat, I'll go back and find them!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and was about to go out. Xu Zizhen grabbed him and said, "If I'm not wrong, they will definitely renege on their debts. Who told you not to speak with a Lanzhou accent? It's normal for people from outside the shop to open a shop."

"But... can it be done like this?" Liu Fengsui was angry and anxious, it was rare for Xu Zizhen to ask him to do something, and it was a lifelong event such as getting married, but it made him lose face by buying such a result .

Xu Zizhen didn't look angry at all, instead he asked with a smile, "Is that cloth shop quite big?"

Liu Fengsui didn't know what he meant, nodded and said: "Taiji is the largest cloth shop in Lanzhou Prefecture, and the business is very good."

Xu Zizhen smiled and said, "That means you are quite rich? All right, since they dare to trick me, then I won't be polite."

Everyone didn't understand what he meant at once, and at this moment there was a chuckle from outside the door: "Which bluster messed with you again, Mr. Xu?"

As the words fell, a graceful and graceful figure walked into the room, but it was Shui Liuli, whom Xu Zizhen had not seen for many days.

Xu Zizhen was overjoyed after being stunned for a moment, and regardless of the crowds around him, he went over and grabbed her hand: "Where have you been these days? I won't see you even when I come back."

Unprepared, Shui Liuli was caught by him, her cheeks flushed with embarrassment, she hurriedly pulled her hand out, and gave him a hard look.

Everyone turned their heads in a very sensible way, pretending they didn't see it, Xu Zizhen realized his gaffe, coughed dryly and said with a sneer: "That...it's nothing, it's just that a profiteer stole my money."

Shui Liuli glanced at the pile of betrothal gifts on the table, looked at Xu Zizhen with a half-smile, and said, "It turns out that he was buying a betrothal gift, no wonder Mr. Xu is so angry."

Xu Zizhen only felt that his head was as big as a bucket, and Shui Liuli seemed to be smiling at all, but there was a hidden sourness in what he could say. It was no wonder that he and her had already had a physical relationship, but now he said he wanted it without even telling her. Married, no one should be angry.

"Cough... who said I was angry? It's too late for me to be happy." Xu Zizhen coughed dryly, and quickly changed the subject, "I thought I was short of money recently, but this cloth store came to my door to blackmail me. It's not a rainy day. Did you meet someone who delivered an umbrella?"

There was a smirk at the corner of his mouth, he stroked his chin and said, "Don't blame me for being unkind, if you blackmail him, a sum of money will just add some equipment to my Shenji Battalion."

Only then did everyone suddenly realize why he was so happy after being cheated out of money, Liu Fengsui asked excitedly: "Then what do you plan to do, big brother? What do you want little brother to do?"

"No, no, no, you've already shown your face, so it's not appropriate to go again." Xu Zizhen raised his index finger and shook it, then pointed his fingertip at Shui Liuli, "But... I wonder if Miss Liuli can play a show with me. ? Well, let’s act as a husband and wife returning home, how about that?”

Shui Liuli's pretty face flushed, and she gave him a hard look: "Who is husband and wife with you!"

……

Xiliang Street in the south of the city has always been the busiest area in Lanzhou. There are many shops on the street, and there is an eight-bay shop in the middle of the street. There is a huge signboard outside the door, with four characters written on it—— —Thai Kee Cloth.

At this time, the sky was gradually getting dark, and it was dinner time, and the business of restaurants on the street was gradually picking up. Some other shops had closed their stalls one after another, but Taiji Cloth Shop was not closed yet.

A dusty carriage came from a distance and stopped at the gate of Buzhuang. A man and a woman got out of the carriage and immediately attracted the attention of passers-by. The place of the rough men in the northwest was particularly eye-catching, and they were Xu Zizhen and Shui Liuli. They ignored the eyes cast on them and walked directly into the cloth village.

The shopkeeper of the cloth shop is sophisticated, so he can see the unusualness of this couple at a glance. Although the clothes they wear are not very luxurious, the temperament they carry is something that ordinary people cannot imitate. He winked, and then greeted him personally.

"Guest officers, what kind of fabrics should I choose? The small size is complete, but there are things you can't think of, and there is nothing you can't buy."

Xu Zizhen smiled and said to Shui Liuli: "Lady, I didn't expect the shopkeeper in Lanzhou to have such a clever mouth, but it's not worse than ours."

Shui Liuli pursed her lips into a smile, and immediately became charming, fascinated the shop assistants for a while, and then lightly parted her cherry lips and said slightly annoyed: "Mr. Why did you come here again?"

Xu Zizhen pointed to the store with a smile: "It's not too late to hurry, look, how beautiful the satin surface is over there." As he spoke, he took Shui Liuli's hand and entered the store, came to the counter and stood still, mouth There was a sound of tsk-tsk, "Look, this is a serious Yanghua brocade, and this... Miss, if this satin is made into some clothes for you, I don't know how beautiful it will be."

Before Shui Liuli could speak, the shopkeeper replied with a smile: "This guest officer has good eyesight. These satins are the best Jiangnan products. I'm afraid there are only a few of them in the whole Qinfeng Road."

Xu Zizhen touched the satin with his fingers, obviously looking like he couldn't put it down, but he said in his mouth: "Oh? Is this really from Jiangnan? Don't fool me with your local brocade!"

The shopkeeper accompanied him with a smile and said: "Guest officer, you are joking. The trumpet has always been operated with integrity. It is known far and near. There is absolutely no deceit or fraud. The guest officer can rest assured."

Xu Zizhen glanced at him, and said with a sneer: "Who does business and says they sell fakes? Are you telling the truth?"

The shopkeeper wasn't angry either, and said with a smile, "Ten penalties for fakes!"

Xu Zizhen laughed and said, "Oh? So refreshing? Okay, since you, the shopkeeper, are refreshing, then I won't bother. I want these pieces of satin noodles. Wrap them up for me."

"Success, wait a moment, sir!" The shopkeeper's eyes turned into crescents with a smile, and he asked the staff to wrap up the satin well, but secretly winked at them.

The shopkeeper was very proud of himself. This couple was obviously rich, and from their conversation, it was clear that they were not locals. The man had a northern accent, while the woman was soft and soft. Jiangsu-Zhejiang tune, since it is a fat sheep passing by, how can it not be slaughtered?

Not long after, the clerk brought the wrapped satin over, Xu Zizhen paid the money without saying a word, and asked the clerk to put the satin directly on his car, the clerk responded and was about to walk out the door, but was suddenly stopped by Xu Zizhen : "Hey wait a minute, I'm still worried, bring it here and show me first."

The shopkeeper's smile hadn't dissipated, and it froze on his face immediately. Xu Zizhen flipped his wrist and revealed a knife, walked to the clerk, and cut open the tightly wrapped skin with a knife, revealing a roll of musty linen.

Xu Zizhen sneered, and looked at the shopkeeper: "What did you just say? Ten penalties for fakes?"
