Chapter 76: Empty Flowers and Sunshine [4](1/2)
Master Jin looked at Master Chen Si very nervously.
Although the Xiajian City is still full of bright and lively, this "Siye Teahouse" has been closed early and has set up a sign at the door.
Ordinary people, even merchants from other places, should understand this rule.
We are all people who do business, who doesn’t have any important things? Let’s talk more thoroughly... Everyone is human, and it is inevitable that there will be a headache and a lot of fun when you are human.
You can scold this businessman for fishing for two days and showing off the Internet for two days, but you can't blame others for why this is the case. It's just human nature.
What's more, the sign of this restaurant clearly reads the big words "Siye Teahouse".
There may be many "Fourth Masters" in the King's Realm of Pingnan. Even in the Weicheng, there are many aristocratic families. Who doesn't have a "Fourth Master"? But if you talk about this most famous person and dare to hang his nickname as a sign, then there is only the Fourth Master Chen Siye.
There are also constant "Siye Teahouse" in Xiajian City.
Because the big customer behind him, Chen family and Ou family have always had extremely close contacts in the business world, in this dangerous city, the "Siye Teahouse" can be regarded as a pure land.
Not only five people checked on weekdays, but even those who seek revenge deliberately avoided this place.
Mr. Chen himself is so happy...
But this saved a lot of trouble and made him feel a little bored. If someone really had the courage to come to his teahouse to cause trouble, Mr. Chen Si wouldn't mind letting his black steel knife be unsheathed in advance.
"Don't panic!"
Mr. Chen slowly stood up, pressed his wrist at Mr. Jin, and his palms were firmly fitted on the table, indicating that he wanted to be calm and composed. No matter who comes here, the other party should not see the flaws.
After escaping from the Gobi Desert in Zhenbeiwang Realm, Jin Ye was sleeping in the open all the way. Especially when he stole twenty-seven Ou Family Swords in Zhongdu City, he went to Xiawei City, and even those who were beaten up became frightened birds.
Fortunately, Master Jin and Master Chen are children of aristocratic families, just like Master Chen.
What I can listen to since I was a child is not on the same level as ordinary people. The so-called "a lot of knowledge" is exactly the truth. If you read more and listen more, you will not be so panicked when it really happens to you.
Master Jin nodded in agreement, but when his eyes looked at Master Chen Si, a hint of ruthlessness flashed.
Mr. Chen is indeed his friend.
But can friends really trust them desperately?
Mr. Jin himself has no confidence...
He has seen too many people who have lost their families and their wives and children because of their "friends".
Compared with the enemy, friends know themselves better and their weaknesses better, so they can kill themselves with one move when they turn against each other, which is caught off guard and unpredictable.
According to his understanding of Mr. Chen, Mr. Chen would not do this.
Such rumours are too obscene and cannot be overly popular. Mr. Chen Si would not act like this even for his own reputation.
But for Mr. Jin now, people have long been returned to the most unreliable category.
At first, he was still in the mines of the Beiwang Realm. He had wine and meat every meal. When he was having a happy and romantic life, his sister, the boss's wife, reminded him not to be too extravagant, otherwise there would always be people who would dislike him.
This principle is very simple and easy to understand. Children who have never read books have heard it from their elders.
But it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. Not to mention that Jin Ye has never been poor in Qing Mansion or in the mines in the Gobi Desert.
Because of all the incidents in Qing Mansion, Mr. Jin had an extremely crazy obsession with family affection. Even if he had no blood relationship, he could chat at the table, even the pretty young man waved his hand and took him for his adopted son and nephew.
After so many years, he himself couldn't figure out how many adopted sons and nephews he had received. Most of them came and went in a hurry, taking a few meals, and then cheating him of some money from Master Jin, and then disappeared without a trace.
The only one who followed him died inexplicably while taming the eagle.
Thinking about it now, that might be a sign.
Nothing will happen for no reason, there will be an introduction, this introduction. This is the so-called sign. If you guess it thoroughly, it can be avoided.
But Mr. Jin didn't think about it any other place except sadness and indignation.
People who love drinking are ranked first in the way they use to vent their emotions.
So Mr. Jin drank a lot of wine for this.
Even if he didn't have emotional ups and downs, he drank a lot of alcohol, but when he encountered such a thing, he would have been much more than usual.
After a while, I kept missing opportunities, and now I ended up in such a difficult situation, I can be considered as my own fault.
After a moment of thought in his head, Master Jin closed his eyes.
He quietly let go of the wine glass, pulled it off the table, placed it on his knees, and clenched his fists.
No matter what time he was, he was not just waiting for death, but he had to hold the blade tightly and fight to the end.
The flesh can be scraped off by swords and blood can also be dried up, but the bone cannot be soft at all.
Just like a swordsman, it is not difficult to hold the blade since he practices a knife, and it is also easy to hold it tightly. The difficult thing is that he still doesn't relax at the last moment.
Although those who know the times are heroes, if they are already heroes, why should they know the times? Either they are damaged by this world, or they stand up and change. Even if there is only a moment of light, it is a flash in the pan, and it is still willing to do so.
Now he has no knife in his hand.
All that can be clenched is the wine glass and fists.
Drinking makes people confused, but clenching your fists can inspire people's blood. There is no need to express how to choose between the two.
Mr. Chen stared at his face for a long time, and even turned a deaf ear to the rushing knock on the door.
He seemed to want to say something, but he only opened his mouth and didn't say a word.
"Who is making noise outside the door?!"
Mr. Chen stood with his hands in the center of the hall and asked with great enthusiasm.
Before he spoke this sentence, he deliberately lit up the lamp on the table.
When the people outside the door heard such a question, they suddenly felt a little overwhelmed...
When Mr. Chen heard a whisper, a Taoist figure appeared on the door and said:
"I'm here to be the chief supervisor of the Ou family's city patrol. How dare you ask if it's Mr. Chen Si?"
“The door is not locked.”
Mr. Chen did not hesitate at all.
But while speaking, I moved the lamp on the table several inches forward.
In this way, Mr. Jin's head and neck were in the darkness. Unless he looked closer, he would not recognize his identity even if his mother came.
The patrols of Xiawei City have always been half of the Ou family and the Hu family. The Ou family manages lively places such as the banks of the river embankment, and the Hu family is responsible for the "Beixiang" where the family is located and the surrounding areas.
The long street where "Siye Teahouse" is located happens to be the junction between the Ou family and the Hu family.
Those who open business on this street are all well-known families in the King of Pingnan, but the family is not in Xiawei City.
On weekdays, the Ou family and the Hu family have given enough face. Not only do they not disturb them, they also have a heart for every festival.
Even if there are various disputes between the aristocratic families in the Pingnan King Realm, they all know that if they cannot share the same hatred of the enemy, then what will the aristocratic families rely on to compete with the royal palace? Sooner or later, they will be defeated.
Therefore, the contradictions are all on the water, and the real tangled relationships are hidden in the water, but they are twisted into one rope.
Under this premise, Mr. Chen Si was also very surprised at the knock on the door and the person who came.
If the Ou family had not replaced people, Mr. Chen Si, the city patrol manager of the Ou family, had seen him.
Not only have I seen it, but I have also drank wine together.
Because the new people he knows and the strangers he meets are basically at the wine table.
"I'm disturbing the Fourth Master!"
After Mr. Chen said that the door was not locked, there was another whisper outside the door.
Master Chen couldn't help but frown...
He could feel that these people, including this manager, were unwilling to go into his teahouse to get into trouble... After all, he is famous for his bad temper.
There has always been a saying in the King’s Realm of Pingnan.
What Mr. Chen is most powerful is not the black steel knife in his hand, but the mouth on his face.
The door of the teahouse is not only unlocked, but also not even the door bolt is inserted.
It’s not because the public security in Xiajian City is so reassuring, but because the Fourth Master firmly believes that with his own power, there is no one who dares to touch in and steal things in the dark.
If you are extremely hungry, you can come in openly.
He had already explained to the guys in the teahouse that he should not panic when he encountered someone who had eaten nothing or demand money from death. He was a real man when he was away. If he hadn't encountered any difficulties, who would have shamelessly come to eat something for nothing?
However, the standard of this "real man" is that it is very difficult for the guys to deal with...
If this person is a big tofu but is regarded as a real man by himself, wouldn’t he have to pay for the losses of the teahouse out of his own pocket?
Regarding this, Mr. Chen Si taught them the method of drinking without drinking.
It sounds extremely unreasonable to take the method, but after careful consideration, it has its reason.
When a man can't afford a meal, he still wants to drink. Such a person must be poor for a while, rather than poor for a lifetime.
People with poor hands only come to solve the troubles of the Wudian Temple, which is considered an emergency rescue for the world. But people with poor hearts cannot get rich even if they have a hundred meals. In the final analysis, this method is still the common saying: Help the urgent problem but not the poor.
The door of the teahouse was slowly pushed open.
The manager who replied to Mr. Chen Si took the lead and was surrounded by a group of people and walked in.
