Four days after setting off, several people arrived in Suzhou City by carriage.

This city is considered the most prosperous place on the road from Jiangli. The scenery and the flow of people are even worse than those in Jiangnan.

"Suzhou is rich in cloth, and there are many cloth merchants. Their silk comes from Jiangnan."

Yu Zhulin added some knowledge to Jiang Li, and Jiang Li nodded.If you plan to do business, this should be a good place.

If you want to make money and harvest grain, the actions closely related to the people may have small profits, but large amounts.The fabrics are different, and the price can be high or low. This is how the cloth merchants become wealthy.

Shi Qingjue opened the curtain of the carriage and looked at the sky, and then spoke to Tieniu who was driving the carriage in front.

"It's getting late now, let's find a place to stay first. The night view in Suzhou is nice, we can go shopping later."

"Is there enough time?"

He Qingfeng asked a little anxiously. They had to arrive before the martial arts conference. They couldn't waste time or else the token would be in vain.

Shi Qingjue patted He Qingfeng on the shoulder.

"It doesn't matter. We are going non-stop along the way, and the horses have to rest."

"That's right, it's time to relax."

Yu Zhulin said the same thing, and He Qingfeng relaxed.

"alright."

"okay."

Tieniu, who was driving the car in front, heard this and rushed to the inn again.

It is not difficult to find an inn that can park a carriage, especially in a place like Suzhou City where there are often foreign merchants.

They hadn't had much rest in the past few days, so they asked for a better room. There were still two separate rooms for men and women.

After looking at the room and putting down their things, they went downstairs to wander around and have something to eat.

Although the food at the inn was not bad, they still wanted to be extravagant. They asked the waiter which restaurant was better, and then went there.

The Lion Tower was not far away, but a few of them were not that hungry, so they walked slowly along the way.

It was still dark at this time, so it was difficult to see what the night scene was like, so the five of them just walked around and bought some local specialties. Jiang Li put them into his storage space.

There were many shops selling jewelry, and the two women couldn't walk, so they looked at each house.As soon as the moon came out, the three men waiting outside became impatient.

He Qingfeng walked to the jade bamboo forest.

"The three of us go to the restaurant to order food first, and we can eat when you arrive."

"Okay, then you go first."

The three men seemed to have received amnesty and ran away having fun.

Jiang Li looked at their backs and shook his head.

Yu Zhulin didn't care about that, just looked at the jewelry, and then he and Jiang Li bought two of them, and then left.

Jiang Li asked about Jade Bamboo Forest.

"It stands to reason that these are all martial arts practitioners. Why do those three men look so tired when they go shopping with us?"

"I'm tired. They didn't want to buy anything in the first place, but they just watched us buy it. It's unrealistic to ask them to help us decide which hairpin looks good. The aesthetics of the three of them are not very good."

"how you said that?"

"The two of us are beautiful, not to mention the beauty of the country, right? Look at those three, have they shown any kindness to us?"

After hearing what Yu Zhulin said, Jiang Li shook his head.She was only interested in other people's feelings. She didn't have any thoughts of her own, so she didn't pay attention to them.

Jiang Li asked Yuzhulin again.

"Then which one of them do you like?"

"No, even though Shi Qingjue and He Qingfeng are good-looking, they don't really care about them. They are just companions who entered the world together."

"Isn't that enough? They probably think of us the same way."

After hearing this, Yu Zhulin sighed, unable to refute Jiang Li.

But she was still depressed.

"That's what I said, but I also wanted to experience the feeling of being pursued and praised for my beauty. I lived with my grandpa for more than ten years, and his old-fashioned grandpa never said that I was beautiful. I finally came out, and I didn't People say I'm beautiful. So isn't my career in vain?"

"You are beautiful."

Jiang Li said so.

After hearing this, Yu Zhulin was stunned, then laughed and hit Jiang Li on the shoulder.

"It's quite embarrassing to say that suddenly."

Jiang Li straightened his dislocated shoulder and regretted the compliment he just made.

Yu Zhulin quickly apologized to Jiang Li.

At this time, they suddenly felt someone appeared in front of them.

"Guan Guan Ju Jiu"

"On the River Island"

"My Fair Lady"

"A gentleman is a good man"

The first three sentences were spoken by three men, and the last sentence was a chorus of three people.

No need to guess, they also knew that this was a dude who was teasing women.

Jiang Li continued to rub his shoulders, while Yu Zhulin looked up at the three people.Of these three people, one is wearing red clothes, one is wearing green clothes, and the other is wearing blue clothes, and they all hold a fan in their hands.

"What are you three planning to do?"

"The moonlight is just right tonight. I would like to invite you two to have a drink and get to know each other."

"Hmm... do you think we two look pretty?"

"She's so beautiful. She's different from all the women we've seen in this city, especially...why is it you?"

The one in red was stunned.

This question was not asked to Yuzhu Lin, but to Jiang Li who had just raised his head.

Jiang Li naturally recognized these three dudes.

"Why are you three still wearing the same clothes?"

"We each have several of the same one."

"Did you come out to tease a good girl today?"

"You're a dandy, he's good at it."

The one in blue also smiled and said.

Yu Zhulin was a little surprised that Jiang Li knew such a person and asked Jiang Li.

"You know them?"

"Old friend."

After finishing speaking, Jiang Li said to Yuzhu Lin again.

"You go ahead, I'll chat with the three of them for a while. Don't wait for me over there to eat."

"It won't be dangerous, will it?"

Yu Zhulin whispered to Jiang Li, and Jiang Li waved his hand.

"Those three bases together can't beat me, so it's okay."

"Okay then, stay safe."

After saying this, Yuzhulin left.

The man in red clothes was a little unhappy and asked Jiang Li.

"How could you comment on us like this in front of that woman? Wouldn't our image be completely ruined?"

"Do you think your conversational language just now was very vivid?"

"Catch up?"

Faced with Jiang Li's rhetorical question, Lan Yi didn't understand the word.

The man in red felt that this was not the important point and continued to ask Jiang Li.

"That, is your friend?"

"Well, companion."

"Is that what she did too?"

"I have changed my career now and quit my previous business. Now, I am serious about entering the world!"

Jiang Li said proudly.

The three dudes were relieved now.

Because of Jiang Li's work, they couldn't have much separation from Jiang Li. Helping Jiang Li was already considered dangerous, so they didn't mention his name.

Now that I have changed careers, I can get to know each other well.

The man in red put away his fan.

"It's such a coincidence that the three of us are not working tonight. Let's go and treat you to a good meal!"

"I'm treating you to a treat, how can I ask you to spend money?"

The man in red clothes and the man in blue clothes looked at each other, and the man in blue clothes continued. "Then let's go to Yixiaolou to eat. The food there is better than the one in Shishilou."

"Okay, I just came here and I don't know what to eat. Just introduce it to me and I'll pay."

With that said, the four of them went to Yixiao Tower.

Yixiao Tower is not far away and will arrive soon.The location of this place is also good. From the window of the private room on the second floor, you can see a river in Suzhou City.At this time, lanterns were lit on both sides of the river, and boats were sailing on the river and crossing the bridge.Pedestrians on the bridge were coming and going, all looking happy.

Jiang Li took a deep breath and laughed again.

"The scenery in this place is much better than that in Sifang City."

"That's right. The scenery in our Suzhou city is so beautiful that you won't get tired of seeing it for three years."

The one in red clothes said this.

Jiang Li also sat back.

"I didn't say my name last time. My name is Jiang Li, how many of you are there?"

Red clothes, blue clothes and green clothes talked one after another.

"Qi Fulin."

"Hong Lukang."

"Li Shoushan."

"Good fortune, good fortune and longevity."

Jiang Li blurted out.

All three people laughed, Qi Fulin said.

"As I said before, our three families have been friends since our ancestors and came from Sifang City together. In our generation, the three of us happened to be born in the same year, so the three families said they would come up with an auspicious word, good fortune, good fortune and longevity."

"Are you three only children?"

"How is that possible? In such a big family, there are not even three or five children who can't say anything. It's just that the three of us don't have much idea about doing business. It's good to be a playboy and we won't really cause trouble."

"That's good. I was just thinking that if you were only children, you would probably have a big problem. I just learned a few days ago that a spoiled only son got into a big trouble. Even if he died, his house was burned down. .”

Jiang Li felt that they should always be reminded that they were not bad in nature. If something happened, they would probably regret it for the rest of their lives.

Hong Lukang said a little embarrassedly.

"Actually, the three of us are just acting as playboys at the request of our family."

"And this operation?"

"Maybe because there are too many rich families in this place, and some people can't stand other families. My two brothers and one sister are very capable, so other families will naturally be jealous, and they may have to do something bad, but I am Dude, they think I'm a prodigal, so their tolerance level is high."

After listening, Jiang Li shook his head.

Sure enough, shopping malls are like battlefields.

Li Shoushan continued.

"Besides, the three of us are relatively free, and we can still represent the family. Some things can be left to us. For example, last time we went to Sifang City to visit tombs and worship ancestors."

"Oh."

While talking, the food was served.Jiang Li tasted it and found that it tasted similar to Jiangnan's, but quite different from Sifangcheng's.

Perhaps because they are more affluent, there are many spices, many types of peppers, and more production methods. The taste is not too strong. Most of them are mild and light, which is more suitable for the tastes of people from all over the world.

"How is it? It tastes good? How does it compare with the Lion House?"

Hong Lukang asked Jiang Li proudly, and Jiang Li spread his hands.

"I just came here today and I haven't even been to the Lion Building."

"...Oh, let's eat vegetables."

Hong Lukang looked very disappointed again, and the others continued to eat.

While eating the food, Qi Fulin asked Jiang Li again.

"Hey, why did you change your career? Is it because of what happened on the ship?"

"Hmm... It has something to do with it. But the real reason is a bit embarrassing to say. I can't tell you yet. I will tell you when I am mentally prepared."

"Okay, so what are you planning to do this time?"

"A group of us are going to attend a martial arts conference and we just passed by here. Although I remembered that you said you were in Suzhou City, I didn't expect to meet you."

"This is fate, let's have a drink!"

Hong Lukang raised his wine glass and several people drank.

Li Shoushan winked at Qi Fulin again.Jiang Li knew this very well and could often see him in Shi Qingjue's team.

Sure enough, Qi Fulin also said to Jiang Li a little embarrassedly.

"Uh... there's something I don't know if I should ask."

"If you want to ask anything, just ask. What's our relationship?"

"That's right, didn't you do that business before? We were quite curious after we went back and wanted to know what your line of work was like. Can you tell us about it?"

The three people looked at Jiang Li expectantly.

Li Shoushan continued.

"Actually, the three of us basically don't have the chance to go out, because of our family members. So last time we had the opportunity to go out to worship our ancestors, we were very happy to go out and play. It turned out to be really exciting!"

Jiang Li looked at them and laughed.

"That's all? What did I think? But I can only tell my own story, and I'll tell you a few. Sit tight, don't be shocked."

Then, Jiang Li told them several of his experiences while eating food and drinking wine.She didn't say anything about Prince Mu's Mansion, she just picked a few interesting things to talk about.

The three listened with great interest. When Jiang Li finished speaking, they were still not satisfied.

Qi Fulin sighed with emotion.

"It's great. It's not like us, who eat and sleep every day. If we have nothing to do, we just wander around the streets and spend money on various things."

"...I want to trade with you."

Jiang Li's eyes were filled with envy.

It's just that these three dudes didn't notice this. They had already drank a lot of wine.

Li Shoushan said again.

"Then you will definitely have a lot of stories to tell when you go to the martial arts conference this time."

"I hope so too. With more experience, I might be able to understand a lot of things. The current me is not enough."

"Then when you come back from the martial arts competition, you will be telling us about it."

Hong Lukang said, and Jiang Li agreed.

"Okay!"

After finishing eating, Jiang Li stood up.

"It's getting late, I'll go back first."

"Let's see you off. You are a woman and you are drunk. It is too dangerous."

Qi Fulin also stood up unsteadily and said this to Jiang Li.

"I can fight five or six people by myself now, who am I afraid of? Don't worry about me. Besides, you three are so drunk. Is someone coming to pick you up? If not, I'll call a carriage."

"No, we can just sleep here. There is a bed and quilt downstairs."

Hong Lukang said something and lay down on the table.Not only him, but the other two were also drunk.

Jiang Li also knew that these dandies must be familiar with this kind of place, and they might often get drunk here.She walked out of the door and called the waiter.

After the waiter came over, Jiang Li said to him.

"You can help these three men down to sleep later. I'll go check out with you."

"Sir, what are you talking about? My young master has ordered that you cannot pay the bill for this meal."

"Your young master?"

"Yes, Master Hong."

The waiter pointed at Hong Lukang who was lying there, and Jiang Li suddenly realized.

This is the reason why I have to come to Yixiaolou.

Jiang Li knew that he couldn't spend the money this time.

She looked through her storage space and found that the small magic weapons were divided among four people. There were indeed not many things left in it.Giving these three Molotov cocktails can be dangerous, but the alcohol alone is just torture.

So Jiang Li took out a large bag of sugar and handed it to the waiter.

"This is for those three people. Tell them that I have to leave early tomorrow morning. This is a farewell gift. Don't steal it."

"How dare I."

Jiang Li looked at the three people again, stretched, and went downstairs.

She thought that several people should be waiting for her at the inn, and she had to go back quickly to avoid worrying them.

But once she got downstairs, she heard a familiar voice.

"I finished my drink so late. I'm really not afraid of danger."

He Qingfeng said this, and the other three people were sitting next to him, waiting for Jiang Li to go back together. (End of chapter)
