Literati Sanctification

Chapter 236 Persuasion
"My lord, what are we going to do later?"

Xiaoyu waited for Heng Xiulin to get up, while washing Heng Xiulin, and then asked.

"Just go for a stroll in the city. If there's anything going on at that time, you can hear about it if you want."

Hearing this, Heng Xiulin thought for a while, and then said, don't be so anxious about this matter, too anxious, and some accidents will happen at that time, but it will not be a good thing.

Xiaoyu listened to her young master's words, and immediately nodded obediently, and didn't ask any more questions, just waited on Heng Xiulin and put on her clothes.

"Son!"

After Heng Xiulin came out of the room, the guards on both sides also came out directly at this time, and then shouted at Heng Xiulin. At this time, the four guards were all wearing flat-headed clothes. servant's clothes.

This is according to Heng Xiulin's order, so they wear it like this. Otherwise, the armor they wear is really too eye-catching, and it is not easy to find out the news.

Hearing the cries of the four people, Heng Yanlin nodded directly, and told one of them to follow him. As for the other three, they just followed from a distance. After giving the order, the group of people went out of the inn and headed outside. go.

It's early morning now, so the cries outside are also constantly ringing out, but compared to the imperial city, it is naturally a bit insufficient, Heng Xiulin is not polite, and sits at a small stall beside him with Xiaoyu Down.

"Young master, if you want something, just order it!"

The peddler directly bowed to Heng Xiulin, with a respectful expression on his face, and asked Heng Xiulin, looking at Heng Xiulin's clothes, they were extremely luxurious, obviously not ordinary people, this Waiting for others, he naturally has to entertain them with heart.

Come for some steamed stuffed buns, and add another serving of soybean juice. "

After Heng Xiulin looked at the things in the steamer, he said something directly, and then sat aside and looked around.

"Okay, I'll put it all together for the young master right away."

Hearing Heng Xiulin's words, the peddler didn't hesitate at all. After answering immediately, he diligently loaded Heng Xiulin's things and wiped the table for Heng Xiulin. That's right. Watching Heng Xiulin speak.

"My lord, please use it slowly!"

Hearing this, Heng Xiulin nodded, then took a bun, took a bite, and saw only a little bit of pork inside, but more noodles outside, Xiaoyu also took a bite at this time , when he realized this situation, his little face suddenly wrinkled slightly, and the expression on his face became a little dissatisfied.

You know, even in Heshui City, the buns they buy have more than that kind of meat stuffing inside, but looking at this bun now, it can almost be said to be steamed buns, and I feel like Xiaoyu who has been cheated. Naturally, he was a little dissatisfied.

"Young master, this peddler is too much, this is not a steamed bun, it's definitely a steamed bun!"

Xiaoyu looked a little annoyed, she pouted at the moment, and said to Heng Xiulin, looking directly at the peddler while speaking, wanting to call the peddler over and ask him clearly.

"Eat first."

Hearing the words, Heng Xiulin looked at the stall where the business was still very hot, shook his head and said, he doesn't care about this bun, what's the matter with the meat stuffing inside, anyway, it's just a casual meal, in the future It is estimated that there will be no chance of coming.

However, from their point of view, the business of this small stall seems to be doing well even though it is clear that some materials have been secretly reduced. This made Heng Xiulin a little puzzled. After thinking about it, Heng Xiulin decided to wait Ask the peddler before opening your mouth.

A while later, after Heng Xiulin and Xiaoyu finished eating, they called the peddler directly. Hearing the voice, the peddler hurriedly ran to Heng Xiulin, then bowed his body, and said kindly to Heng Xiulin.

"What else do you need, my lord?"

Heng Xiulin shook his head directly when he heard the words, but he didn't speak, Xiaoyu on the side took the words directly and said, "What's the matter with your small stall, there is only a little meat stuffing in it, also called steamed stuffed buns , it’s all steamed buns!”

Xiaoyu looked at the peddler, and asked a little angrily, she didn't want to ask if the young master didn't make her talk just now, but now that she had her young master's signal, she naturally asked.

When the peddler heard the words, his face was bitter, and then he waved his hands again and again and said, "Young master, the conscience of the world, the buns made by the villain already have enough meat inside, otherwise why would there be so many people coming?" Buy it, go and look at other bun shops, that’s where you’ll really see minced meat.”

The peddler had a miserable face. Although Xiaoyu asked this question, if it wasn't for Heng Xiulin's gesture, how could a maid like her ask such a thing? The peddler was very clear in his heart, and sighed secretly in his heart.

He felt that there was very little meat in his steamed stuffed bun, so why did he eat up all of the steamed stuffed stuffed bun, and only came to say it now, maybe he had some idea in his mind, as a scholar, he didn't even think about this kind of thing. What to do?
The peddler was miserable. Although he was extremely dissatisfied with this matter, he still didn't show any emotion on his face. If this person just didn't want to pay, then he would consider himself unlucky and just don't want the money for breakfast. .

But if he dared to show some dissatisfied tone or look, he was afraid that the matter would become a big deal and it would be difficult to end. He knew that if he was a peddler, if he wanted to fight Hengxiu Lin, he would definitely It is impossible, and, especially the government office, is that place a person like him can enter?

Once inside, even if you don't die, you will shed your skin.

The hawker only thought that Heng Xiulin didn't want to pay, so he just wanted to justify a few words, and then he admitted that he was unlucky, and he just admitted the matter.

It's just that when Heng Xiulin heard the peddler's words, surprise flashed in his eyes, and he looked at the peddler and said directly, "You say, this little meat is already too much?"

Heng Xiulin didn't think that the peddler was lying. After all, as long as he bought a copy of this matter at will, he could prove that it was true or false. Therefore, thinking about it, it should be impossible for the peddler to say such a thing, and it is extremely easy to debunk it. Words are.

Hearing this, the peddler nodded his head immediately. Anyway, this was something he did with a very good conscience, so no matter what, it can't be denied.

"Naturally, the villain uses a lot of minced meat. In Musi City, there is no one who uses more minced meat than the villain."

"You liar! I have never bought buns with less meat than this from other places. Don't try to fool me!"

Listening to the peddler's words, Xiaoyu immediately pouted, then stared at the peddler, and said to the peddler. His tone was full of disbelief. The peddler was stunned when he heard this, and then smiled wryly. soundtrack.

"It turns out that the few of you came from other places. No wonder they will face things and dare not believe it."

Heng Xiulin frowned, "Why do you say that?"

The peddler sighed and said, "Right now, the pork in Musi City is extremely expensive. The small ones are small businesses, so how can they afford it? If you buy too much minced meat, the price of steamed stuffed buns will have to increase by then. , but in this way, not many people will buy it, but if there are fewer, the small ones are too embarrassed to do this. Right now, these are already at the point where villains can do it. If there are more, the small ones will It's going to be a loss.

"This stuffed meat is cheap in other places. Why, is it very expensive here? Why is that?"

Seeing this, Heng Xiulin felt extremely strange. It is impossible for the price in one place to rise to such a level. After all, the price in other places is so cheap. If it is expensive, it is better to go to another place to sell it. .

Although the price will also be higher, it will definitely not be so high as to be surprising.

"My lord, since you are from another place, don't stay here for long, you should leave quickly, listen to what the villain says, you will definitely not harm your lord."

At this time, the peddler also realized that Heng Xiulin was probably not the kind of person he had just thought of, and immediately felt ashamed, so Yushi opened his mouth and persuaded Heng Xiulin.

Just like what he said, this place is not for him to stay in. All kinds of dark things are rampant here. Even though Heng Xiulin is a literati, it is still very dangerous to be in this kind of place.

If one is not good and offends some people who shouldn't be offended, it will be troublesome at that time, so the peddler tried his best to persuade Heng Xiulin to leave here as soon as possible.

"Why do you say that, can't you stay in this place? If so, why do you still stay here?"

Hearing the peddler's words, Heng Xiulin's heart suddenly moved, thinking of something, but his face still asked calmly, the peddler's words reminded him of the matter of the Wang family, Judging from the current situation, it is very possible that this matter has something to do with the Wang family.

"My lord, I don't think you look like a bad person, so I'll tell you some things, but you must not spread the word, otherwise, you will be killed."

The peddler hesitated for a moment, and then looked around. Seeing that no one noticed the situation here, the peddler directly spoke in a low voice.

"Here, as long as you are a member of the Wang family, you must not offend them. The relationship between the members of the Wang family and the government is extraordinary. This has been proven, and the price of pork is extremely high. It’s also because the government imposed too many miscellaneous taxes, so we had to raise the prices and sell them, otherwise, everyone would have nothing to eat.”

At the end, the peddler also sighed, and then said, "I don't blame them for this matter, everyone was forced and had no choice but to do so."

Hearing what the peddler said, Heng Xiulin twitched his brows slightly, and there was a chill in his eyes. He just went out to have breakfast casually, and he could hear such things. It is conceivable that the Wang family is here. In Sicheng, that name is already so bad.

"Young master, listen to my advice, you are not from here, so you should leave quickly, this is not a place for you to stay, I heard before that there is a literati, because he is very dissatisfied with the Wang family, he wants to send them high, But in the end, I couldn’t see the literati anymore, everyone said.”

The peddler said at the end, suddenly thought of something, stopped his mouth immediately, then shook his head, and stopped talking. Although he didn't say the last words, Heng Xiulin still heard what the peddler was going to say at the end , his complexion became even colder.

"And you, since that's the case, why don't you leave here and find another way of life?"

Heng Xiulin looked at the peddler in front of him, and asked directly.

Hearing this, the peddler shook his head again and again, "It's not that I don't want to leave, it's just that there is an old mother at home, so how can I leave? Right now, no one in Musi City has one thing or another, and they can't leave Otherwise, he would have left long ago."
