What's more important is that when Fang Jinshi pulled, he lost his footing and fell down. The bowl of broth dripped all over his hands and pants, not to mention how embarrassed he was.
Shi Quan followed up and kicked the yellow dog, but it only hit its tail. The yellow dog barked twice, and before running away, he picked up the Fang Jinshi in his mouth and dropped it to the ground. The dough cake quickly jumped into the depths of the woods and disappeared.
Just as Shi Quan was about to step forward to ask how Fang Jinshi was doing, he heard someone behind him say coldly: "Why did the two distinguished guests break into the backyard without authorization and beat the three wolves away from the shop? Doesn't the shop have any rules?" Shi Quan looked back, but it was a waiter in the store who was asking the two of them with his hands on his hips.
This guy said he was a distinguished guest, but his attitude was arrogant and he didn't regard them as customers at all. It's no wonder that Fang Jinshi was dressed like a beggar, and Shi Quan had a gold seal on his face. There were a lot of sawdust. It was strange that this guy who recognized Luo Yi but not others had a good attitude towards the two of them.
Shi Quan was angry and was about to retort, but he heard someone in the woods say: "You guy, the store's vicious dog hurt someone, you don't ask the injured person first about his injury, but you blame someone else for beating away your dog, the world Is there anyone who opens a shop like this?" Following the voice, seven people walked out of the forest.
These people thought they were eating in a place where only VIPs could go. They were about to leave when they encountered this incident. All seven of them were dressed in coarse cloth, some were black, some were gray, some were yellow. They looked like ordinary travelers on the road, and their clothes were very ordinary. Most of them are in their twenties or thirties.
The person who spoke was the person walking at the front. He was about twenty-three or four years old. He wore a gray cloth shirt and a blue belt around his waist. He was six feet tall and had a dark complexion. Although he was not handsome, he was tall. Very generous.
His clothes are very ordinary. If these clothes are worn on someone else, that is, a strong man driving a cart in the countryside to sell and buy money, if they are worn on this person, he will be like a wealthy young man who accidentally wears the clothes of a servant when he goes out to play. generally.
Seeing the demeanor of this guest, the waiter did not dare to say anything anymore. While the young man was talking, he walked up to Fang Jinshi, lowered his body and asked Fang Jinshi, "Has the little brother been hurt?"
Fang Jinshi saw that this man's attitude was very amiable, and he felt good about it. Moreover, it was indeed not hurt. He shook his head and said: "It was not hurt." The man stretched out his right hand in front of Fang Jinshi, trying to pull him to stand up.
Fang Jinshi hesitantly stretched out his hand. His hand was still full of the broth. He was a little embarrassed, but he couldn't refuse the kindness, so he hesitated. However, the young man didn't care. He stretched out his hand and pulled Fang Jinshi to stand up. He turned around and faced The tall and strong man behind him said: "Uncle Shao, make up for this little brother's meal when you check out."
Uncle Shao behind him agreed: "Yes, Young Master."
Uncle Shao was not old, he was about twenty-six or seventeen years old. Fang Jinshi hurriedly thanked him, but the young man smiled slightly and said, "There's no point in saying thank you for such a small thing. I have to go on my way, so I'll say goodbye first." Chong Fang Jinshi and Shi Quan said He hugged his fists and walked out slowly.
Fang Jinshi watched the man walk to the square, led the horse and walked towards the hillside road. He turned around and said to Shi Quan, "Can Brother Shi recognize this man?" Shi Quan shook his head. Although the thing this man did was small, it was just a bowl. The broth was not worth much, but what was rare was that Fang Jinshi was just a little beggar. He not only helped, but also personally stretched out his hand to pull him up.
Fang Jinshi was completely impressed by this man's magnanimity, and Shi Quan also praised him very much. The waiter brought another meal and broth, and the two of them sat there and finished eating without guessing who this man was.
Youdao is a white-clouded dog, and things in the world are ever-changing, but Fang Jinshi was pulled by this man because of a yellow dog. This pull was the best he had ever felt since he traveled to the Song Dynasty, especially after experiencing yesterday After all the thrills of life and death, he felt that this person was even more amiable and respectable.
This person just did a good deed casually, but he didn't expect that he would help the little beggar casually. The two had many interactions in the future. Fang Jinshi felt grateful that today's intervention had helped this person more than the sky. .
The seven people led the horses from Luoshanju on the hillside to the main road. They took a look at Shi Quan's tall carriage, but no one went around to the front of the carriage to take a look at the ugly horse that was blocked by the pile of firewood.
There were some peddlers and footmen on the road. When they saw such a tall diesel truck, some people were curious about what kind of ox and horse could pull such a big truck. They would probably go around to the front to take a look at the tall ugly horse. But these seven people had something on their minds. , so they had to rush on this hot day at noon, and they must not want to waste time watching some irrelevant excitement. The seven people got on their horses on the road and went straight along the way Fang Jinshi and the two came.
Shi Quan was not in a hurry. Seeing that Fang Jinshi was very hungry, he ordered him an extra portion before finishing the meal. The two of them lay under the tree and rested until the weather cooled down a little before leaving Luoshanju. down.
Shi Quan couldn't help but feel funny when he looked at Fang Jinshi's pants. Fang Jinshi picked up a piece of cloth from the garbage dump and tied the corners of the pants on his calves to make it less embarrassing. Shi Quan drove the big car We put firewood on Fang Jinshi and chatted leisurely along the way. We walked for almost two hours and finally arrived at Anjiangji, which was more than ten miles away from Yanzhou City.
Anjiangji is the bridgehead of Yanzhou City. It also has a city wall. Although it is not as big as Yanzhou City, it is still larger than an ordinary county town. It has a thousand defenders and 20,000 to 30,000 civilians.
Shi Quan's big diesel truck was too wide and couldn't pass through the city gate. Fang Jinshi helped untie some of the tops of the city he had just entered. It already looked a bit prosperous. This was the first time Fang Jinshi had seen an ancient town, and he couldn't help but feel that he was on the wrong track. The things sold on the side were a little curious, like a country bumpkin entering Bianjing City, his eyes were too busy to look at them. Shi Quan was a little curious that he said he came all the way from the south of the Yangtze River, and was amused by the way he looked around.
Shi Quan drove the carriage to a larger inn in the west of the city and went to talk to the shopkeeper about business. Fang Jinshi thought that he should have business dealings with this firewood company, so the price was quickly agreed upon and Shi Quan left. He came over and pulled the carriage into the backyard. Fang Jinshi was about to step forward to help unload the carriage, but Shi Quan stopped him and said, "No need to unload the carriage. We sold it together with the carriage."
When Fang Jin entered Shi Daqi, he saw Shi Quan coming out of the storekeeper's room after paying for firewood, untying the rope and pulling the horse out.
The two walked out of the inn, and Fang Jinshi didn't know if he should separate from Shi Quan. He didn't have a lot of money on him and was shirtless. He might not even have a place to eat if he left Shi Quan, but it didn't seem like he was relying on others all the time. Sorry.
He was walking behind, thinking about how to say a few words of farewell forcefully, but Shi Quan stopped, turned around and said into the stone: "Go in and have a look."
Only then did Fang Jinshi realize that the two of them passed by a cloth shop. He followed Shi Quan into the store. This shop mainly sold some coarse cloths and some low-end silks and satins, as well as a few pieces of ready-made clothes for promotional purposes. Shi Quan frowned. Fang Jinshi chose a set of blue coarse cloth shirts based on his figure. He came from a large embroidery workshop, so he really couldn't stand this kind of material.
Fang Jinshi wanted to refuse, but thought it was unnecessary, but there was no place to change the pants, so he had to hold them in his hands. Shi Quan took him to buy a pair of thin-soled boots, which cost him fifty yuan.
Seeing Fang Jinshi changing his clothes and shoes in a toilet, Shi Quan looked him up and down and praised: "These clothes are too bad to reflect my brother's good looks." Fang Jinshi hurriedly said: "Brother Shi is joking. , I am a store clerk, I don¡¯t have good looks, but my younger brother has spent a lot of the hard-earned money, so I feel really sorry."
Shi Quan smiled slightly and said, "Does a few dozen pennies count as money? It's a pity that the eldest brother has less money and can't afford a good outfit."
Fang Jinshi was a little touched when he heard Shi Quan's words. He and Shi Quan had only known each other for a long time, and they had offended him before, but this side army took great care of him along the way. He saw that Shi Quan's clothes were also extremely It was worn out, and he was reluctant to buy a new one. The money he had to pay every month was also extremely hard for him to earn. This big cart of firewood had to be collected and transported all the way here. An Jiangji only had two hundred yuan, but he took out the money without hesitation and treated Fang Jinshi to two meals and bought new clothes.
Thinking of this, Fang Jinshi stepped forward, held Shi Quan's hand and said, "Brother Shi" He was about to say something grateful, but Shi Quan had already anticipated what he was going to say, and stopped him and said, "Little Brother, please don't say any disgusting words, Shi Quan won't listen."
When Fang Jinshi heard what he said, he stopped talking and just nodded. Shi Quan pressed his shoulder and said: "When Brother Fang makes a fortune in the future, and high officials have to ride horses, I will say these words again." I¡¯m happy now.¡± After saying that, he burst into laughter.
Fang Jinshi also told him that he was in a good mood, as if he felt that the future was not so bleak, and he also laughed.
After Shi Quan finished laughing, he stopped smiling and said seriously: "Now there is something that will trouble Brother Fang."
Fang Jinshi was stunned for a moment, patted his chest and said, "Brother, please tell me something. I will go through fire and water, and I won't hesitate to do anything." Shi Quan smiled and said, "There is no such serious matter. I just want to ask my brother for help to pull this horse." Sell ??it in the market.¡±
Fang Jinshi saw that he had sold the car with firewood earlier, so he thought he would get a saddle and ride it back, but he didn't expect that he would sell the horse as well. However, Fang Jinshi was a bit unkind to others, so he just felt that this Shi Quan was very kind to him. Even if he were asked to steal a horse now, let alone selling a horse, he would probably do it.
So he walked up and said, "I wonder where the market is and how much money Brother Ma will sell for." Shi Quan pointed to the north and said, "The road on the right side of the city gate isNext to it is a place where horses, cattle and sheep are sold and sold. Although this horse cannot be called a sacred horse, it is very powerful and patient. Although its quality is a little different, it should be worth fifteen or six guan, but time is urgent, and it is worth ten guan. . "
[Gong Meichun's comment] In the Song Dynasty, because there was no land to raise horses and there was a shortage of war horses, horses mostly relied on imports. The Liao and Xixia countries controlled exports very strictly. The private prices were extremely expensive, and they were often expensive but not marketable. Ordinary horses were probably more expensive. Bai Guan.
By the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, the Liao Kingdom and the Song Dynasty had been in harmony for a hundred years, and their control was somewhat looser. Therefore, they relied on some Liao people on the border to sell horses to the Song Dynasty, and coupled with the powerful hard currency of Song money, this was the case, even in the remote northwest In areas where prices are relatively low, it may cost thirty or forty dollars.
There is no way here
