Lord of Time!

Chapter 11

After singing five times in succession, Chen Ping decided to close the stall after seeing that the amount of silver and copper coins was less than the previous one.

It was almost noon, and it was time for dinner.

No matter how good a song is, it can't be eaten as a meal. If you keep listening to the same song, the power to shock the soul will be much smaller, which is understandable.

Of course, there is a more important reason.

Singing music is, after all, begging for money, a way of earning money, and it must not delay one's own practice, that is the fundamental.

Several people discussed it, and only come out for half a day every day...

There is a market for everything, and people must not be full at one time, and passers-by have to be given time to spread word of mouth.Hunger marketing has become inevitable.

A big fat man, rubbing the green jade finger of his left hand, walked up to him slowly, and asked with a smile: "Little brother, how much money can you earn by singing on the street? It's a pity, it's a pity, why don't you go I sing in a restaurant, eat and drink enough every day, and still have a lot of money to earn, look..."

To be honest, what the big fat man said was kind and pleasant. If he could take his salivating eyes away from Hualian'er, Chen Ping actually didn't have much opinion.

Where to sing is not to sing.

As long as you give money, you can talk about anything.

But obviously, what the other party was thinking in his heart was not what he said.

Ninety-nine percent, this is the idea of ​​eating everything and trying to monopolize the business.

This is normal, the little beggars, although they have changed into new clothes, are no longer so down and out.However, who walks on this street doesn't know their identities?

How can you respect them.

"Cheng Laoxi, bah!"

Before Chen Ping could speak, the colorful faces around him could no longer bear it.

Although the bag on her head has healed, it still hurts faintly.

'It's him……'

Chen Ping remembered that he had heard Hualian'er say that Cheng Laoxi was a cruel man, and he was the owner of Fuyuan Restaurant.On weekdays, he would rather bury the unfinished meals of the guests in the garden or dump them in the cesspit than give alms to beggars.

It's fine if you don't give alms.

What's more, as long as a beggar came to beg in front of his restaurant, he would be beaten with sticks at every turn.

When I lived in the Earth Temple, not only Hualian was beaten, but also my left hand and the small table and stool were beaten several times.

It is said that they are too smelly, and they are too close to the restaurant, which affects the business of the restaurant.

Every time Hualian mentions this matter, he is indignant.

Such a person, how many of them would kindly invite them to sing?

It is said that in Fuyuan Restaurant, there was an old man who played the huqin and a little girl who sang songs. They lived in the woodshed all day, and their lives were very miserable.

"Let's go."

Chen Ping's eyelids were drooping, he didn't even look at Cheng Laoxi, he was too lazy to answer.

The other party's malice and greed are already on the face, so it's meaningless to say too much, just call a few people to stop.

"Hey, you guys have to think about it. I know the temperament of that old fox. He only wants money and doesn't care about other things. If you want to continue singing on Qilin Street, you'd better think about it carefully."

Cheng Laoxi looked embarrassed, his eyes narrowed into slits, and his voice turned cold.

An old man with a goatee came out quickly behind him, "Our master has the protection of the magistrate of Xingqing Mansion, so don't make mistakes, otherwise it will be too late to regret."

The owner's family dedicated their precious daughter to Master Tongzhi as the seventh concubine. This is not easy to publicize, but it is a very good thing.

Generally, no one dares to mess with it.

If we say, Cheng Laoxi is still half lure and half threat.

A goatee is an outright menace.

"Good dogs don't get in the way."

Chen Ping gently pushed the two away, and took them away.

This eating was so ugly that he didn't even bother to say a few perfunctory words.

……

"Boss, you need to find someone..."

The goatee looked angrily at Chen Ping and the others walking away, and asked in a low voice.

"Come on, I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, have you noticed that there is something wrong with that song?"

"It's nothing wrong, it's...you sing really well?" Goatee wondered.

The big fat man lightly stroked the green jade finger in his left hand, and shook his head: "Your eyesight is still a bit bad, you can't tell... It's true that Qi Se Tang Chang San Si is not easy to provoke, but how dare he provoke me? You have to think about it carefully, you can live with rare goods, you can live with strange goods..."

Cheng Laoxi felt extremely ridiculous.

It's all right if he can sing good lyrics and music, he's not a poet or a sour scholar, he doesn't care too much about these things, the key is people.

So stunning, even begging on the street...

Isn't it violent?

People, until they are desperate, they always think that they have many choices.

He has seen too many people like this.

……

"Will there be any trouble with Cheng Laoxi?"

As expected of Zuo Duan Shou, from the north to the south, after going through ups and downs, and seeing the sinister hearts, he was a little worried at this moment.

"Of course there will be troubles. However, he is not in a hurry for the time being. He can just see the tricks and break the tricks, but..."

Chen Ping paused slightly, looked to one side, with a strange expression on his face.

Not far away, there is a large courtyard with towering locust trees, and people's voices can be heard faintly.

Just now, when he turned his gaze, someone stepped into the yard.

At a glance, Chen Ping could see clearly...

The man's face was still bruised and swollen, and his big beard was very eye-catching.

I have met this person twice, both openly and secretly.

Once, when Chang Sansi found him, he was by his side, and he even scolded himself and the others.

Another time, when the "Tracing the Origin and Seizing Luck" talent was activated, the scene I saw... the bearded man cut the shopkeeper Shen who was using a crossbow in half with a knife.

Of course, the most memorable thing is the pair of ferocious triangular eyes of the bearded man, looking very gloomy.

'Big locust tree, green brick compound, no place to find if you break through the iron shoes, it takes no effort to get it. '

If it is said that what a profiteer like Cheng Laoxi does, he still pays attention to planning before moving, and presses every step of the way.

Then, a reckless guy like Zhang Dazi will go straight and leave no room for it.

Although Chang Sansi said there, 300 taels of silver will be charged after one month.

However, Boss Yan and Big Beard Zhang are not people who follow the rules. It can be seen from the fact that they quietly followed Shopkeeper Shen who had left the city and returned to his hometown, and robbed and killed halfway. They are truly vicious and ruthless. avoid.

From Chen Ping's eyes, it can be seen that Zhang Big Beard and the others are not like their appearance, they are some gangsters with strange backgrounds.

In the battle of robbing and killing shopkeeper Shen, these people cooperated tacitly and had a strong killing intent, as if they had a certain method.

Either a deserter, or a bandit background.

Such people, after Boss Yan's death, would they resign themselves to their fate and wait for Chang Sansi's order to act?

not necessarily.
