Chapter 143 143: Action (1) [Seek a monthly ticket]
The butcher said: "You mean that old thing? He came yesterday and bought three catties back, but he hasn't come today..."
Chu Yao smiled awkwardly: "That's my mistake, but it does look like it from a distance. Hey, is there any happy event in his family or is it prosperous? Once you buy it, it costs three catties. I mean, come today?"
The butcher felt his teeth itch when he thought of the old man.
Old stuff loves to take advantage of it. Those old hands are not honest. They always touch the meat on his stall when he doesn’t see it. Other customers are willing to buy it when they see it? With an old face, he let him be sold cheaply, and wanted to take advantage of a few pennies, and he would not change after repeated admonitions.
I haven't done this recently, but every time I come here, I will deliberately slap copper coins and broken silver on his shop, pretending to buy a few catties of meat and a few ounces of bone in a loud voice, in case others can't hear you clearly, and open my mouth to reveal the mouthful old man. Yellow teeth, only short of saliva flying.
However, the butcher opened the door to do business, and he couldn't drive the customers out. In fact, he had already had an opinion in his heart.
The butcher rolled his eyes and curled his lips: "What happy event can his family have? He just added a granddaughter last month, but this old thing's eyes are not eyes, and his nose is not a nose. What are you talking about 'a loser with one leg'?" , Bah! It’s so easy, old man, let’s flip a leg to see if he can pull out an egg or an egg.”
Chu Yao patiently listened to the butcher’s complaints—he knew that the butcher was gossiping like his Goro, he liked to talk nonsense, and he talked about where he was—once the topic got far away, he silently pulled it back, and finally heard the serious content.
The butcher said: "...a few days ago, he suddenly became rich. It is said that his son took over a big job. He eats three to five catties of meat every day. Look at his mouth full of fat. The old bones are still a firewood. Know where all the meat grows..."
Chu Yao said: "That is developed."
The butcher chops the meat needed by the customers with two clicks. The other guests are also neighbors. When they talk about gossip, it’s like riding the wind and waves without oars. Sour.
They look down on that family, but they are really envious of them eating several catties of meat for so many days.
How not sour.
Alas, the roots of my teeth are going to be sore.
Speaking of the big fish and meat for a few days, besides this family, they also know a few other families. The smell of meat wafting from the house every day really makes me hungry. Poor people can only eat some meat during the festivals, but some people can eat meat as a meal...
Immediately, some people secretly speculated that the money came from a wrong source.
As the leader of the topic, Chu Yao was the most silent among the group of people, listening quietly as before, sometimes echoing a few words, sometimes being puzzled. A few people chatted until their tongues were dry before they patted their buttocks and left contentedly, as if most of the dissatisfaction and sourness had dissipated with the gossip chat, and they were satisfied.
Chu Yu was satisfied, and took out his money bag to buy two catties of meat.
The butcher asked: "Are you also developed?"
Chu Yao replied: "Master's money."
The butcher gave him an extra 2 taels and asked him to go back for extra meals.
Things were almost done, Chu Yao was about to leave, but the little chubby dun'er pulled his sleeves and looked at him with wet eyes.
Pleadingly: "Teacher..."
Seeing this, Chu Yao asked, "How long will I take Ah Rong away?"
The butcher waved his hand angrily, and cursed: "Take it away, take it away, or don't come back. This kid is following your old **** for a wild heart, stay at home and use up his father."
Little chubby dun'er laughed so hard when he heard this.
The butcher gritted his teeth even more when he saw it.
Whose son is this? ? ?
Chu Yao heard part of the news, and took the chubby dun'er to another place under the pretext of purchasing—he has been in Xiaocheng for so many years, and has dealt with all kinds of religions and classes. He couldn't inquire about information related to the bank directly, but it was not a problem to get around.
Hmph, the management of the treasury is very strict, and officers need to check several times when entering and exiting, but they can't control these seemingly inconspicuous "heretics". Chu Yao was like an ordinary purchasing servant, waiting for Shen Tang at the agreed place at sunset.
Shen Tang almost stepped on the point.
"Wu Hui, I'm back."
Chu Yao got up and saluted, and the chubby dun'er followed suit.
Shen Tang is also familiar with Little Pang Duner, seeing a small package in his arms, he smiled and said, "Ah Rong is coming too?"
Chu Yao said: "I'm worried that my homework will fall too much."
Go to the mountains to stay for a few days before sending them back.
Shen Tang nodded: "It's fine, after Zhai Le went back, I don't have any peers to play with me, it's just right that Arong is here."
Chu Yao: "..."
Whether it is playing with Goro, it is clearly being played by Goro.
Shen Tang summoned the motorcycle skillfully, put the things Chu Yao bought into the bag, and packed the things that couldn't fit in with hemp rope and put them on its back. The most expensive thing here is the two-knife paper, a box of ink ingots, and a few writing brushes, but they are not good products.
Shen Tang teased the little chubby dun'er: "It's a long, long mountain road to go back. If you regret it now, it's too late."
The chubby dun'er thought that Shen Tang wanted to drive him away.
hugged Chu Yao's waist.
His brows were raised upside down, with a stubborn look on his face.
Chu Yao had no choice but to pat his hand, motioning him to let go, and said: "I didn't intend to drive you away, sit on it quickly, and leave the city."
For convenience, he bought a mule for transportation.
It happened that the master and the apprentice shared a mule.
He doesn’t have the stink of praying for good. He doesn’t want to get on a horse, a car, or a sedan chair. He can walk instead of two legs, whatever it is.
Not long after leaving the city.
"I ran into Gu Chi at noon."
"Gu Wangchao? What happened to him?"
Shen Tang relayed Gu Chi's words verbatim, as well as the details of their conversation, as well as her speculation. After Chu Yao heard this, he was silent for a long time. He had the same opinion as Shen Tang, guessing that Bei Mo and Shi Wu joined forces, and he couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Unlike Shiwu who likes to put gold on his face and touch porcelain on the sun, Beimo seems to be much more peaceful, but in fact he is more dangerous than Shiwu, more like a bloodthirsty and brutal wolf that lurks in the dark waiting to be killed with one blow , the only thing they have in common is ambition.
It is not a day or two for them to covet the hinterland of the mainland. However, their previous strength and ambition do not match.
Even Chu Guo once taught Bei Mo to be a man.
"Chu Guo fought against Bei Mo?"
Chu Yao suddenly smiled a little strangely, he said: "Hand over."
After a pause, he asked again: "Otherwise, how do you think the once-famous 'Three Heroes of Chu State' gained their reputation? More than half of them came from beating Bei Mo. Bei Mo suffered successive defeats and sent out several protons Ask for a peace and express your position."
"Three Heroes of Chu State", all three of them have brushed Beimo.
Every time Beimo tried to go south to make troubles, the countries in the Northwest united to send troops to crusade. You send troops and I pay food, or we can gather together to send some people, so that the young scholars and generals in the country can gain experience.

1. The "children's skill" in the last chapter is actually a meme. It should be in the Qing Dynasty. Ku Yin’s work seems to be passed down from father to son. In order to steal Ku Yin, the children in the family have to expand the rear [court] flowers until they can hide silver ingots so big that they can escape without falling. Check in and out.
2. I forgot which old saying novel I read about the butcher's sentence. I was impressed and disgusted. I don't know if there were such derogatory words about women in ancient times.
