Chapter 43

Li Xin turned around and looked.

I saw that the group of people vying for jobs were all shocked and stared blankly at one of them.

This is... Liu Xing?
No, it should be Chai Jiu!

Li Xin recognized this person and felt relieved.

Chai Jiu had her hair shaved in front of her forehead and her braids. Her whole body was thin and her clothes were dirty and torn. She must have escaped from the Kingdom of Jin.

People from the Kingdom of Jin would be treated differently in the Great Xia of the Central Plains.

The most direct manifestation is that it is hard to find a job.

Even if found, the treatment is extremely low.

Chai Jiu had obviously been starving for a long time, and for the sake of food, he rolled to the end without any wages.

The two people in charge of recruiting showed playful smiles and asked for Chai Jiu.

And after this, the rest of the people can only continue to scroll down.

"Thirty Wen! Want me!"

"25 words!"

"24 words!"

"I only need 23 papers!"

But the volume was getting slower and slower, and it was all reduced by penny by penny. Obviously, it was almost to the limit that everyone could accept.

If not, they can only try elsewhere.

"It's not easy to survive."

Li Xin shook his head slightly, said softly, and left with Qingwen.

When he saw those people in the Kingdom of Jin without hair on their foreheads, he felt chills for them.

At the same time, I also thought to myself, I will go to the clothing store tomorrow to buy two hats, capes and other things, so I will be prepared.

Forget it today, I am too lazy to go back.

He has short hair, which is not uncommon in the Great Xia Country. For example, Li Dazui also has short hair.

Besides, when he first came, his body looked like he had been burned, and it was reasonable that most of his hair was burned off and shortened.

As for whether to stay longer in the future, he has not yet made a decision.

Back at Tongfu Inn, as soon as I got closer, I saw something happened in Yihong Restaurant opposite.

The door was closed tightly, and a group of well-dressed people surrounded the door, as well as the servants and thugs they brought with them, all shouting about debts and repayment.

"It seems that I still haven't escaped the bankruptcy in the original plot."

Li Xin had expected it, so he was not surprised.

He walked into the Tongfu Inn, and saw Bai Zhantang, Tong Xiangyu and others, although they were sitting around the ash table, they all stretched their necks to look at the situation opposite.

"What's the matter on the other side? Is the shopkeeper Sai really in debt?"

Li Xin and Qingwen didn't sit down, they just stood and asked casually.

"Isn't it! You are still a brother, you are so good at predicting things! You really hit the spot!"

Bai Zhantang looked very excited.

Not only him, Tong Xiangyu and others all had bright smiles and were in a great mood.

"It's a fluke, it's a fluke."

Li Xin cupped his fists and said modestly.

"Mr. Li, don't be humble. I think you are smart. Otherwise, why can't we think of it, but you alone?"

Tong Xiangyu said happily, shaking the fan in his hand.

"That's right, Mr. Li is not worse than that black-faced Bao with the surname of Bao, and that little boy named Gongsun Ce, and he's much smarter than someone who claims to be a scholar."

Guo Furong also praised it, and satirized someone overtly and secretly.

"There are specializations in the art field, whether you are good at reading, whether you are smart or not, it has nothing to do with your reasoning ability."

Lu Xiucai is this "someone".

He is unwilling to be said that his brain is inferior to others.

Indeed, Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce may not be better than him in reading.

It's just that he has special skills in reasoning and reasoning, and he is really not as good.

"Tch, if you can't eat grapes, say grapes are sour."

Li Dazui also sneered.

"It's not about the grapes, that's not how the phrase is used."

Lu Xiucai tried his best to explain.

But Guo Furong and Li Dazui ignored him.

"Shut up, scholar!"

Tong Xiangyu scolded directly with a straight face.

Then he quickly changed his face and said with a smile: "Xiao Guo, hurry up and make a pot of good tea for Mr. Li."

"Yes, everyone sit down and watch the show slowly."

Bai Zhantang also said.

"Shopkeeper, my hand hurts."

Guo Furong stretched out her wrist, the joints were indeed reddened.

Her other hand was injured and she couldn't move it. Yesterday she kept cleaning the tables for the beggars and relied on only one hand, so she felt uncomfortable and sore today.

"Who told you to be lazy when practicing martial arts? If you study hard and practice the set of Jingtao Palm, your wrists won't be so fragile."

Bai Zhantang couldn't understand authenticity.

He always said that Guo Furong was poor in martial arts, but the latter was still not convinced, and it showed now.

"Don't bother Ms. Guo, we just picked up new clothes from the clothing store, and we want to go back to the room as soon as possible to try them out, if they don't fit, we have to return them."

Li Xin pointed to the bundle in Qingwen's hand, and the clothes were wrapped in it.

In fact, the clothes are all custom-made, and they are all measured according to the body shape, so there is basically no error.

"Yes, I need to try on the new clothes. Then Mr. Li, you go upstairs, and I will call Zhantang after dinner."

Tong Xiangyu nodded and smiled.

"Oh no, I want a change. I've already bought some different pastries, so I won't eat today."

Li Xin patted the burden in Qingwen's hand again and said.

In fact, there are only clothes in it.

He didn't buy any pastries at all, he was just going to eat the food in the space.

"You watch the play slowly, I will go up first."

With the last words, Li Xin and Qingwen went upstairs.

"Big mouth, Mr. Li didn't let you cook something this morning, did he?"

After Tong Xiangyu waited for the two of them to go upstairs completely, he asked Li Dazui.

"He said it's not good to interrupt my practice, so he went out to eat."

Big mouth replied.

His current progress in martial arts training is still at the stage of squatting, but he can finally bend down without blinking, and he doesn't cramp easily.

I don't know if it has improved, or because I followed Bai Zhantang's advice and did a full warm-up first.

"Then there are still two meals today. He doesn't eat anymore? Rich people just think differently. They are free and can eat whatever they want. They are no worse than people in the Jianghu."

"It's not like me. I owe a debt. I don't know how long it will take me to pay it off."

Guo Furong said with emotion.

"Young Master Li knows how to live. His family background must have been good before."

Tong Xiangyu said.

Li Xin was vague about the past, only hinting that he was a wealthy family, but he didn't say clearly how rich he was.

We can only rely on guesswork.

But everyone only said that he was free to eat whatever he wanted, just when he was in a mood and wanted to eat something bought outside.

But they didn't expect that Li Xin just didn't want to use the tables and chairs in the lobby, so as not to get lice.

In fact, Bai Zhantang had wiped it with a damp linen cloth, so it stands to reason that there is no serious problem.

Li Xin is also suffering from obsessive-compulsive disorder.

After he and Qingwen returned to the house, they entered the space to try on the clothes, and they all fit well, and they were so satisfied that they changed into one of them on the spot.

Li Xin's blue robe, white trousers and black boots, Qingwen's tender red jacket, white silk skirt and embroidered shoes.

It is suitable to wear indoors, but it will be cool outside, so you need to add a thicker layer inside, or wear a cloak outside.

When it's coldest, switch to a thicker set.

"Haha not bad not bad!"

Li Xin looked at himself with satisfaction, and then at Qingwen.

The little girl blushed, she turned her gaze away, and was about to go to the open space outside the building to do some exercise.

"No, new clothes should be cherished."

Li Xin finally changed into the sportswear he wore before time travel.

After training intermittently for more than two hours, he noticed Bai Zhantang knocking on the door.

Although it was a bit strange, there was still room to open the door.
