Chapter 4
After meditating in the forest all night, Zhang Chuyi rode his bicycle and came to Beihai Park in the morning sun.

In the past, when Beihai was still the private property of princes and nobles, ordinary people were not allowed to enter. They could only look at the White Pagoda inside and listen to the sound of telling the time from the Bell and Drum Tower.

Now that time has passed, the former Royal Palace has also become Beihai Park, which has become an embellishment of the life of the people in the alleys of the capital.

In summer, you can come here for boating and enjoy the lake, and in winter, you can come here for skiing and skating.

It's just that it's hard to hear, the morning bell that runs through the entire Forbidden City is ringing.

Speaking of which, Zhang Chuyi has been in the capital for three years, but he has never played in this ancient capital of the Six Dynasties seriously.

Except for working hours, he almost spends his time meditating and practicing in the dark coffin room.

He is like an outsider, and the prosperity and excitement here never belong to him.

But from today onwards, he wants to change his way of life, he wants to walk in this world openly and aboveboard, watching the prosperity fade away, and the world is drunk with money.

"Shopkeeper, show me all the signs in your store!"

Zhang Chuyi came to a shop called [Jianghu Xiaozhan] outside Beihai Park. As soon as his legs and feet crossed the threshold, he was already yelling. Those who didn't know the familiar appearance thought they were regular customers here.

The decoration in the shop is quite old-fashioned, and all the places you can see are solid wood tables and chairs. The waiter in the shop has a white towel on his shoulders. Seeing that Zhang Chuyi is extraordinary, unlike ordinary people, he immediately bows to greet him: "Guest officer, please."

After entering the store, Zhang Chuyi didn't need to be arranged by the waiter, and went directly to the table in the center of the lobby and sat down, leaning on his knees and said: "First, let's have a pot of Longjing Susu, and then put all the signature dishes in your store. Serve it up, but without the bean juice!"

"Okay, wait a moment, sir, the delicious food will be here soon!" The waiter in the shop replied crisply, turned his head and rushed into the back kitchen.

Zhang Chuyi's ostentatious demeanor immediately attracted the attention of other diners in the inn.

Someone glanced at him, then continued to bury his head in his breakfast.

Some looked deeply, as if they were guessing his identity.

Zhang Chuyi ignored the attention of others, took out his mobile phone and looked at the drama group on wechat.

Only then did he realize that he had been kicked out. What made him even more angry was that he was not paid yesterday's wages.

Although I don't know what happened to the crew and the group, but there is no relevant news on the hot search, which shows that this matter has been suppressed, and it is probably the hand of everyone.

"Guest officer, your Dragon Well tea." The shop waiter came over with a blue and white teapot, twisted his wrist lightly, and poured out a pour of fragrant Longjing hot tea.

"Thank you." Zhang Chuyi picked up the teacup and blew gently with his mouth twice.

"Guest officer, you are welcome." The waiter bowed and thanked, then turned and continued to work.

Soon, Zhang Chuyi's signature dish was served.

There are buns, deep-fried dough sticks, coke rings, Beijing eight pieces, as well as fried liver, steamed pork, and BJ roast duck.

There was a table full of delicious food, and when the back chef heard the waiter ordering the food, he thought there were some big-bellied men in front.

When I stretched out my neck, I saw a strong young man. He was quite handsome, but he didn't look like he could finish all the food on his own.

In fact, Zhang Chuyi had never ordered so many dishes before, but it wasn't that he couldn't eat it, but that he couldn't afford it.

The consumption in the capital is inherently high, and the work of group performances is not available every day. In addition, the practitioners have a big appetite, so they can only eat fast food on the construction site that is enough for ten yuan.

In the past, when I wanted to break a penny into two flowers, how could I go into a restaurant and order such a big table?

But the past was the past, and now he doesn't plan to live a good life anyway, so he also came to spend a little extravagantly.

Of course, his main purpose of coming to Jianghu Inn today was not to have a big meal, but to inquire about news.

There are two inquisitors with the best reputation and the most truthful news in the Yiren world. One is the Yaoxing Club, which has just been established for two years.

However, Qu Tong, the leader of the Yaoxing Society, has been secretly collecting the inheritors of the Eight Miraculous Skills, and he has controlled a large number of masters who are not afraid of death. Now is not the time to provoke her.

As for another place to ask about, it is the Jianghu Inn with a history of more than a hundred years.

Unlike Yaoxing Club, which has influence both at home and abroad, Jianghu Xiaozhan focuses on domestic business and has branches in many parts of the country. Its intelligence collection capabilities are second to none in China.

In addition, Mu You, the shopkeeper of the Jianghu Inn, is one of the ten people who lead the alien world. He is upright and righteous. Not only is the old celestial master's year-end friend, even the mad dog Lu Ci also praised him for his good character.

Dealing with such an open-minded person is definitely more comfortable than dealing with an ignorant person like Qu Tong.

In just ten minutes or so, Zhang Chuyi swept all the food on the table like a storm, and barely ate until he was eighty cents full.

That's it, eat a good breakfast, have a full lunch, and save your stomach for another high meal at noon.

"Xiaoer, pay the bill!" Zhang Chuyi pulled a tissue to wipe the oil around his mouth, and shouted loudly.

"The guest officer has a lot of food." The shop waiter ran over with a smile, and handed the bill to Zhang Chuyi: "Chenghui 460 three yuan."

Zhang Chuyi was not in a hurry to pay, and folded his arms and said, "Call your shopkeeper and say that there is a big business coming."

"Big business?" The shop clerk frowned, "Guest officer, you don't plan to eat for free, do you?"

"Hey, I really don't plan to eat for nothing today." Zhang Chuyi grinned, "I'll tell you if you tell the shopkeepers to come over. The things I give you must be worth more than 400 yuan."

The waiter in the shop shook his head: "My shopkeeper is busy with affairs, and it's not just anyone who wants to see me."

Seeing that the other party seemed to be in a state of indifference, Zhang Chuyi laughed softly and said: "When the wind and rain come on the river, they will penetrate the whole city in a moment."

Hearing this poem, the waiter's expression changed immediately, and he asked in a low voice, "Are you in the circle?"

Zhang Chuyi nodded.

"Wait a moment." The waiter dropped the words and turned to go upstairs.

Two minutes later, the waiter went downstairs again and extended his hand to make an invitation: "Sir, my shopkeeper invites you to go upstairs to the private room for a chat."

Zhang Chuyi was convinced and followed the waiter upstairs.

The decoration on the upper floor is in the same style as the first floor, antique and unique, and you can smell a nice scent of incense faintly.

In the room on the left at the end of the corridor, Zhang Chuyi saw the shopkeeper of this branch.

The shopkeeper was wearing a long gray gown, with a thick beard and a big pipe in his mouth. For those who didn't know, he thought he had just come out of the set of some Republic of China drama.

"Shopkeeper, please talk carefully, I'll go down first." The waiter in the shop sent him over, greeted him respectfully, and then gently closed the door.
