Shaojun riding the sea

Chapter 50 Is this a black shop?

"Don't be upset, shopkeeper. My wife and I are not from Yuncheng. We don't understand the rules, and offended the owner of Fenglou. It was really unintentional. Please forgive me, shopkeeper."

Seeing that Shi Xuanling was devastated, Yue Wugui hurried forward, saluted and apologized to the bearded and staring shopkeeper, while still looking at the counter, his eyes turned around on the inkstone and abacus, pretending to be pleasantly surprised, he said:

"The shopkeeper is really an elegant person. I use first-class pine smoke ink. It is deep but not charming, thick black and dull, easy to melt in water, and the ink fragrance lasts for a long time. This abacus is also made of good rosewood wood. Is it made? Even the beads on it are made of precious suet white jade, each of them is white and flawless, and feels warm and delicate. If you are not a knowledgeable person, how can you be so noble and elegant?"

"It seems that not only the wedding dress in this Fenglou is exquisite, but also all the other objects are exquisite. This makes my husband and wife more rude and reckless. I apologize to the shopkeeper again. I hope you have a lot of them. We juniors care about it."

As soon as these words were uttered, they were self-restraining, understanding the general situation, and making people feel comfortable, the shopkeeper couldn't help raising his eyebrows, looked at Yue Wugui in front of the counter again, nodded slightly and said:
"Xiao Erlang is quite knowledgeable, and you have indeed hit the mark. The old man sees that you have an extraordinary conversation, but you are an elegant person?"

"It's not elegant, but I used to use these things when I was studying at home, so I know a thing or two, and I would never dare to use an ax in front of the shopkeeper."

A simple sentence, not only contains the meaning of self-effacing, but it also shows that these precious objects are just things that I used casually in the past, implying that I have an extraordinary background, and I am also a son of a famous family, which cannot be underestimated.

It's no wonder that Yue Wujiu's words are so clear, after all, this Fenglou walks up and down the road of wealth and honor, with a mysterious appearance that makes people unattainable. If the status is too low, the shopkeeper will not take it seriously.

Sure enough, upon hearing Yue Wujiu's answer, the shopkeeper looked at him again, looking thoughtful, but the young man smiled more modestly: "I don't know what to call the shopkeeper?"

"It's enough to call me Uncle Quan. The old man is not a serious shopkeeper, but he is just helping the head of the family to worry about it."

Lose all?Shi Xuanling couldn't help raising his eyes, couldn't help laughing, and thought to himself, calling this name is absolutely not a gamble.

Yue Wujiu smiled and saluted beside her and said: "I met Uncle Quan, my wife and I are getting married soon, and I came here because of the name, I want to choose a wedding dress in Fenglou, and I heard that the master of Fenglou is so skillful, I really admire him so much, I still hope that Uncle Quan will introduce me, I don’t know what to do, so that we can meet this... Master Fenglou?"

This is not a complete nonsense, Yue Wujiu owed Shi Xuanling a big wedding, and this Fenglou also happens to sell wedding dresses, if he can choose the wedding dress he likes, it is not a bad idea to buy one.

After Uncle Quan understood what he came for, he stroked his beard and said calmly, "Since you want to buy a wedding dress from Fenglou, you must have inquired about it. There are nine floors in Fenglou. The price of the wedding dress is more expensive, and the wedding dresses made by our family members are all placed on the ninth floor, and he only accepts distinguished guests, or people who are predestined."

"What is a distinguished guest? And what is a predestined person?"

"The meaning of a distinguished guest is very simple. If you can afford a big price and buy a wedding dress on the ninth floor, then you can be regarded as a distinguished guest of Fenglou."

When Uncle Quan said this, his eyes turned around Yue Wujiu and Shi Xuanling, and then he continued: "As for the predestined person, if the money is not in place, we have to meet the predestined relationship of our head of the family. If he is willing to meet People, even if they are penniless, Fenglou will treat them as honored guests, but such things as eyesight are illusory, I advise you to be more realistic..."

Uncle Quan said, Chaoyue Wujiu and Shi Xuanling stretched out a hand, and said bluntly: "Have you brought enough money?"

This time, he really stopped the two of them, but Yue Wugui reacted quickly, tore off the money bag and put it on the counter.

"I came in a hurry and didn't bring enough money. Can these be used as a small deposit? First, let's go to the ninth floor to meet with the owner of Fenglou, discuss the style and details of the wedding dress, and then pay the full amount later. it is good?"

"Didn't bring enough money?"

Uncle Quan opened the purse, glanced at it casually, and threw the purse back unceremoniously, "Just a few bucks?"

He sneered, pointed to the wedding dresses behind Yue Wujiu and Shi Xuanling, and said bluntly: "Don't talk about the ninth floor, just buy a small piece of fabric for the first floor, no, yes It's not enough to buy a small velvet flower above, but you still want to go to the ninth floor and see us as family?"

Uncle Quan shook his head, waved his hands, and didn't want to waste any more words, "Turn left when you two go out, so we don't want to see you off."

"Wait, wait, Uncle Quan, don't worry, in fact, we, we are... the young island owner's friends!"

Seeing that a few clerks were about to come forward to "drive away customers", Shi Xuanling was excited, and quickly took out a token from his arms, held it up high, and said in a hurry: "Look, the owner of the island is rich, he is very rich. rich!"

Well, the supernatural and omnipotent little shark, the young island owner Zhong Lisheng has been moved out again.

At this moment in the distant country of Gumo, the young man in purple who was accompanying King Gumo to enjoy singing and dancing in the palace suddenly sneezed for no reason, touched his nose, and looked around suspiciously.

In the Fenglou, Shi Xuanling was still there swearing: "Look, Uncle Quan, we are friends of the Young Island Master, and it's not that we don't have money. It's just that we came back in a hurry and didn't bring enough money for the time being. See if this is okay. Write this account...on the owner of Shaodao, okay?"

"He, he must be very rich, and he has always been heroic. He will never renege on his debts, and we are good friends, no, we are close friends who live and die together. Let's put this account on him first?"

Shi Xuanling's eyes were sincere, and Yue Wujiu next to him coughed a few times, feeling a little guilty for no reason.

Shi Xuanling doesn't care about that much, she's justified, she's not lying, after all, after careful consideration, she and Zhong Lisheng have indeed gone through life and death together, so why can't they be regarded as "friends in need"? up?
At this moment, in the distant country of Gumo, the boy in purple sneezed for a second time. He straightened up, beat the black iron folding fan, rubbed his nose, and looked into the air with a frown.

"What's the matter today? Who misses the young master so much?"

In Fenglou, the token was patted on the counter, and Shi Xuanling said sincerely: "How about it, Uncle Quan, I'll bet the token here, can we... go to the ninth floor to have a look? "

I thought it was a sure thing, after all, Zhong Lisheng came forward, could he still be rejected?

Unexpectedly, Uncle Quan just glanced at the token, expressionless, and said ten words indifferently: "I'm sorry, Fenglou does not accept credit."

The smile on Shi Xuanling's face froze, a little unbelievable: "Yes, but this is the Young Island Master, please see clearly, Uncle Quan, this is really the order of the Young Island Master..."

"The old man's eyes are good, so what if it's his token?" Uncle Quan became a little impatient, and squinted at Shi Xuanling, "Little girl, what's wrong with the young island master? Is it extra special?"

"You little dolls, you really aren't locals. I'm afraid you still don't know what kind of existence Fenglou is in this Yuncheng?"

While touching the abacus beads made of high-quality white jade, Uncle Quan said slowly: "Although we have only sold wedding dresses for hundreds of years and did not mix anything, there is really no one on Yunzhou Island. Can be qualified to manage us."

"Don't say it's the young island owner. Even if the island owner comes in person, if our family members don't want to see him, he will definitely not be able to go to the ninth floor of Fenglou. Do you believe it?"

Shi Xuanling and Yue Wujiu have only been here on Yunzhou Island for a long time, how would they know that this Fenglou is indeed in a detached position on Yunzhou Island, not involved in disputes, but also independent, and no one can control it. so it is.

Hearing Uncle Quan's words, Shi Xuanling and Yue Wujiu looked at each other, completely speechless.

The extremely heavy token in her hand also seemed a bit ridiculous in this Fenglou at the moment. This token of the young island master was tried and tested, and it worked everywhere, but it happened to be here at the last place. The important Fenglou hit a wall.

But the more so, the more mysterious and unpredictable the owner of Fenglou on the ninth floor, the more people want to find out.

Yue Wujiu and Shi Xuanling wanted to say something, but when they fought hard, Uncle Quan had already waved his hands coldly, "Please, please, don't delay the old man's business, next time bring enough money before entering the gate of Fenglou Bar."

Several shop assistants gathered around again, and when Yue Wujiu and Shi Xuanling were about to be kicked out, a familiar voice suddenly came from the door:

"I have money."

The snow wolf sticking out its tongue, with thick white hair and pointed fangs, followed Pei Shixi, followed his breath all the way, and guided Pei Shixi to find this phoenix building.

Yue Wugui choked for breath, turned around and met Pei Shixi's calm smiling face, he couldn't help clenching his fists secretly, and when he was about to say something, Uncle Quan was a step ahead of him, frowning and shouting:

"The dog is out, this shop only entertains people!"

Pei Shixi was caught off guard, and subconsciously blurted out: "This, this is a wolf."

"The wolf also goes out, the wolf is great, and the long body and white hair can be a man?"

Uncle Quan retorted unceremoniously, Pei Shixi stared wide-eyed, with a look of astonishment on his face, and several shop assistants surrounded him again to "drive away wolves". The wolf led it out.

Shi Xuanling witnessed this scene the whole time, but finally couldn't hold it back, and burst out laughing. Pei Shixi glanced at her, moved his lips, but didn't say anything.

At this moment, Shi Xuanling really wanted to cheer for Uncle Quan, hello Uncle Quan, Uncle Quan, thank you Uncle Quan for "treating everyone equally", looking down on each of them equally, and showing embarrassment to each of them without distinction.

Looking at the wolf being led out, Yue Wujiu naturally understood how Pei Shixi found this place. He looked coldly at the luxurious official robe, with a sarcastic smile on his lips:
"Master Pei, you are really haunted. No matter where you go, you can meet you? I will accompany my wife to pick out a wedding dress. Why are you here to join in the fun? Why, do you have a fortune-telling again, and you can also marry a wife? Is it done?"

Regarding Pei Shixi's "marrying a wife", there has always been a rumor in the market that Pei Shouzun has killed too much in his life, he is a man who restrains his wife and sons and relatives, and is lonely. That's why he has never been married, not even close She is a womanizer, and only keeps company with a few wolves she raises.

Obviously, Fenglou, a festive place selling wedding dresses, has nothing to do with Pei Shixi for the rest of his life. Yue Wugui now teases him about his "marrying a wife", which is just ironic , Poking people's sore spots, laughing at his fate of killing all relatives and cutting off children and grandchildren.

But Pei Shixi didn't care, instead he stared at Yue Wujiu's eyes, and said with a half-smile: "It turns out that the son of Yue brought the third lady to pick out the wedding dress, I thought the son of Yue had something to hide The purpose is to sneak over the wall and enter the city overnight, because there are ghosts in your heart, what are you going to do?"

"What can I do? It's just that I hate being stuck with dog skin plaster. It's a pity that I can get rid of the little ghost, but I can't get rid of Yan Luo. Since Mr. Pei is here, it's fine, I will pick out the wedding dress with my wife, and you will pay. How about it? Mr. Pei is not a stingy person, are you willing to pay the money?"

Yue Wugui said the purpose of Fenglou in the future, and he deliberately proposed that Pei Shixi should pay for it, so that the matter of "buying the wedding dress" is more real and not fake.

As a matter of fact, they did not have that much money, and they happened to meet a "big guy" who came to their door. They didn't want to do it for nothing. Anyway, Pei Yanluo had been in charge of the Zhenfu Division for many years, and he was greedy for countless money, so he didn't take the opportunity Is it reasonable to catch him and bleed him?

Fortunately, this Fenglou is not engaged in other businesses, but specializes in selling wedding dresses. Even if Pei Shixi finds him, he can have a natural excuse to deal with him.

Hearing Yue Wujiu's words, Pei Shixi glanced at the wedding dresses on display in the store, secretly judging the truth and falsehood in his words, without any fuss, he casually took out the purse he was carrying, and poured out the contents inside. on the counter.

"The son of Yue is getting married, so naturally he has to choose carefully, and buy the most beautiful wedding dress. I am willing to give this favor, as long as the son of Yue is willing to accept it. Here are twelve golden beads, are they enough?"

The glittering little balls dazzled people's eyes on the counter, Pei Shixi had a calm expression on his face, but he hummed triumphantly in his heart, can't you take it?I'm afraid it's more than enough to buy this building, right?
Unexpectedly, Uncle Quan counted the gold beads on the counter, and found out a special small scale from nowhere. He put the gold beads on it and weighed them seriously. road:
"I'm sorry, if it's this amount of gold beads, if you want to buy a wedding dress on the ninth floor of Fenglou, you need at least this amount more."

As he said that, Uncle Quan stretched out five fingers. Pei Shixi was a little surprised, but he didn't show it too much on his face. He just asked, "Five gold beads short?"

"No, it's five hundred."

As soon as Uncle Quan's words came out, Pei Shixi finally "broken his skills", his pupils suddenly dilated, and he obviously took a breath of air.

He turned his head, looked at Yue Wugui, and then at Shi Xuanling, who was holding back a smile, with disbelief written all over his face.

"You, are you sure you want to buy a wedding dress here?"

Yue Wujiu nodded calmly, "Lord Pei just boasted that he wanted to give me and my wife the most beautiful wedding dress, so you can't even get the money?"

"Not really, it's just..." Pei Shixi turned around and looked at Uncle Quan in front of the counter again, the corners of his mouth twitched a few times, but he couldn't hold back, and said what was in his heart——

"You guys, are you a black shop?"

　Mr. Pei: Why do you think this official is being taken advantage of?
