Chapter 1 Horseshoe

Yunying City.

Fengmian Street, Liangyao Teahouse.

Lu Tong put his legs on the bench and looked out at the street expressionlessly.

The street is very lively, ordinary people of various appearances, monks, monsters, and half-demons come and go.

But Lu Tong's mood was a little depressed.

Two days ago, he was a big chicken farmer in the village, the director of the sand mining factory in the town, the owner of the freight company in the county, and a small real estate developer in the city.

The net worth is neither big nor small, not as good as the upstart tycoons in the big cities, but it can be said that it can be said to be all-in-one on the one-third of an acre of land at home.

Unfortunately, all this has disappeared.

Lu Tong looked down at the horseshoes on the bench, and sighed silently in his heart: "It's okay to travel through time, and you've even turned into a half-demon. Two horseshoes can't even walk."

His current body is a half-demon.

Above the knee is a human appearance, and below the knee is a pair of horse legs and hooves.

Without toes, soles, or heels, there are only black and hard hooves, and it is difficult to even stand firmly.

Lu Tong walked on the ground for the first time, feeling like he was stepping on a pair of stilts leaning forward slightly.

Standing up, leaning forward and backward, walking up and swaying here and there.

He was lamenting the current desperation.

A young man with an honest face walked into the teahouse and asked, "I heard that you are here to help with anything?"

Lu Tong took a look, but sat on the chair without moving.

Liangyao Teahouse is not just a teahouse.

Regular customers who often come to the teahouse know that no matter what troubles they ask the shopkeeper of the teahouse for help, even if the shopkeeper can't solve it, he will help with ideas.

Lu Tong had just come to this world not long ago, so he had no intention of talking to others.

Just thinking about the little money left on his body, he still greeted: "Yes, who are you?"

The young man was a little cautious. He walked in to see if the chair was not seated, and stood beside the table and said, "My name is Wang Cheng, and I would like to ask you for help."

Seems like an honest guy.

Lu Tong lost some scruples, took his two hooves off the bench, sat up straight and said, "Sit down and say, there are no guests at the moment anyway. Dahan, pour tea!"

In the corner of the teahouse, a huge body was sleeping on the table.

The arms were thick and white, and looked like good fat.

After Lu Tong shouted and saw no movement, he raised his hoof and stomped on the ground vigorously, making a sound of "Gada Gada".

The sleeping body stood up abruptly, and a fat pig head looked up, looked around, found Lu Tong and asked in a muffled voice, "Boss, what's the matter?"

Pig head, human body.

He is unusually burly, almost half the size of an ordinary person.

Lu Tong shook his head, pointed at Wang Cheng and said, "Pour him a bowl of tea."

"Oh."

Wang Cheng was a little nervous, and waved his hands again and again: "No, I don't drink tea, I'm here to ask you for help."

Dahan didn't care about it, he put the pottery bowl directly, and poured a bowl full of hot tea.

After pouring Dahan, he turned around and was about to leave.

Lu Tong looked at the empty tea bowl in front of him and couldn't help shaking his head.

Such a fellow with no eyesight, if placed in the original world, I am afraid that he will never even think about being promoted in this life.

He knocked on the table and said, "Dahan, pour tea."

Dahan turned his head and looked at the bowl full of tea that had just been poured, and his eyes widened.

After two breaths, Dahan walked up to Wang Cheng, put out a clay bowl, and poured a second bowl of tea.

"Hey." Lu Tong sighed helplessly, "Dahan, pour me a bowl of tea."

"Oh."

After Dahan finished pouring his tea, he returned to the corner to sleep.

Seeing that Wang Cheng was very nervous, Lu Tong smiled and comforted him, "Speak slowly if you have any troubles. There are many people who come to the teahouse to find helpers, so don't be nervous."

Wang Cheng forced a smile and said, "No, I'm different from them. My affairs are a little... a little private, and I like a woman. But..."

Wang Cheng waited for a long time, his face was flushed but he still didn't continue.

Lu Tong had no choice but to guess and continue: "But she doesn't like you?"

"No, I like her, and she likes me too. But there is no way to get married now, and there is still some trouble in it."

This is a slow child.

Lu Tong put his hooves on the bench again and changed into a comfortable position.

"It's still early today, take your time."

"Okay." Wang Cheng picked up the tea bowl and took a sip. "It's like this. I'm 21 this year and live in Malanfang. I like a neighbor."

"Neighbors are good, and those who know each other will get closer."

"Don't interrupt me, I finally got it sorted out."

Got it!
Chronic is still short tempered.

Lu Tong grabbed a handful of melon seeds from under the counter, intending to be a silent listener.

"I went on to say, but the neighbor I like, she has already married someone."

"Huh? I can't help you with this..."

Lu Tong couldn't help but interrupt, after all, he couldn't destroy other people's families.

Looking at the honest man on the opposite side, Lu Tong couldn't help sighing, he really can't be judged by his appearance.

"No, it's not what you think. Although she is married, her husband died two years ago."

"Oh, widow."

Wang Cheng was a little unhappy when he heard this title, and said in a muffled voice, "Yes, she is a widow, but I just want to marry her!"

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to look down on widows at all." Seeing the change in Wang Cheng's expression, Lu Tong hurriedly explained, "Actually, I like widows too."

Wang Cheng widened his eyes and looked Lu Tong up and down: "You also want to marry a widow."

"No...no. I'm just making an analogy. It's like saying that I still like to eat rock candy elbows."

Lu Tong swallowed the melon seeds in his mouth and shook his head, "Talking about your business, what are you talking about me for, just keep talking."

He was already a little interested in Wang Cheng's affairs.

"Oh."

Wang Cheng nodded half-understood, and it took a long time before he choked out a sentence: "What did I just say?"

"You said you wanted to marry a widow... No, it was a neighbor."

"Yes, I want to marry her. But there are some bad gossips in the neighborhood. My parents don't agree. You can help me find a way."

Lu Tong already understood.

Wang Cheng is only [-] at most, [-]% is still a big boy, no one will agree to him marrying a widow.

"You want me to persuade your parents?"

"Yes, it's best not to let the neighbors gossip."

"What gossip?"

Wang Cheng looked at Lu Tong with resentful eyes.

Lu Tong instantly understood.

Oh, probably because of widows.

There is a lot of gossip in front of the widow, let alone marrying a young man.

Lu Tong planned to take over the business, put down the remaining melon seeds, took out a pen and paper, and said, "Tell me about your family and your neighbor, so I can understand."

"Oh. There are five people in my family, father, mother, me, younger brother, and younger sister. My father and I sell vegetables in the fresh vegetable market, and my younger brother and younger sister are all studying in Fulu Bingyuan. Meijie is the only one in her family. Because, I also learned alchemy, and now I run a shop selling medicinal soup."

After hearing this, Lu Tong showed a little smile, and asked, "Sister Mei is that neighbor? How old is she older than you?"

Wang Cheng lowered his head in embarrassment, and said in a low voice, "Well, I'm older. When I was learning boxing in the martial arts hall, sister Mei married into our workshop."

"How old were you then?"

"It seems to be, twelve or three..."

At the end of Wang Cheng's speech, his voice was so low that he could hardly hear it clearly.

The two discussed for half an hour.

After understanding the general situation, Lu Tong put down his pen and said, "The last question, why don't you find a matchmaker, but come to me instead?"

"I did look for it, but my mother scolded me and left me. After that, no one paid any attention to me."

Lu Tong looked at the infatuated species in front of him, smiled and said: "Okay, I know. You go back first, and go to your business tomorrow morning."

"Okay, then I'll come back tomorrow night."

Wang Cheng stood up and turned around to leave.

"Wait."

Lu Tong pointed to the two empty tea bowls on the table, and said with a smile: "Big leaf tea, promotes blood circulation and relieves fatigue, each bowl has two copper coins."

"what."

Reluctantly, Wang Cheng took out four copper plates and put them on the counter. When he left, he muttered in a low voice: "I said I wouldn't drink it, but you insisted on letting me drink it."

Lu Tong took out a money pot in the shape of a copper elephant from under the counter.

The copper coins were thrown into the belly of the copper elephant, making a crisp crashing sound.Obviously, there will not be too many copper coins in it, because if there is a lot of money, it will almost make no sound if it falls directly into the pile of money.

Holding the money pot, he began to calculate today's income.

He sold 37 bowls of tea, seven dishes of stewed tofu, and two dishes of salted fish, earning a total of 120 copper coins.

The rent of the teahouse has been earned back.

Shocked, Lu Tong raised his hoof and chopped it twice, yelling loudly: "Dahan, close the door and carry me back to the room."
