The happy life of a prodigal

Chapter 163 Is Xia Cuntou good-looking?

Zhao Yan gave Fang Xiu a blank look, and said, "You haven't changed at all in these three months."

Fang Xiu smiled unknowingly.

Suddenly there was a loud noise downstairs.

Several policemen in soap clothes quickly pushed the door open and entered, lined up on both sides.

Undoubtedly, the only headhunter in Kyoto Prefecture——Xia Yixue came in next.

Xia Yixue glanced at the blood on the ground, then turned her gaze on Zhao Yan, and after a while, she looked at Fang Xiu and asked, "What's the matter?"

When Fang Xiu heard this, he was a little unhappy.

What is called...again?

As if he was always getting into trouble.

Obviously, the trouble always finds me inexplicably!

"Xia Butou, you're finally here..."

Thinking this way in his heart, but on the surface he looked frightened, walked up to Xia Yixue, and said, "Just now, Miss Zhao and I were having dinner.

Suddenly, more than a dozen strong men rushed up with various weapons, intending to murder Ms. Zhao and me.

In broad daylight, the heavens and the earth are clear, under the feet of the Son of Heaven, thieves dare to be so rampant, how can ordinary people such as me feel at ease..."

Fang Xiu cried with snot and tears: "Xia Butou, imagine that you and your friends are eating in a restaurant, eating smoothies and singing, and suddenly a dozen fierce and strong men appear.

It is a terrible thing to clamor to take your life, and actually do it.

So... Xia Tutou, this kind of thing must not be tolerated! "

Xia Yixue already knew Fang Xiu very well, knowing what he said, nine out of ten sentences were false, and another sentence was half-truth and half-false.

Therefore, he didn't pay much attention to it, just nodded and said lightly: "I see."

"understood!?"

Unexpectedly, Fang Xiu's complexion changed when he heard this, and he was filled with righteous indignation: "I am also an imperial court official, ordered by His Majesty to be assassinated in public in the Jingshi restaurant from the fifth-rank Yulin guard Zuo Zhonglang.

As a head arrester in Kyoto Prefecture, you only know one sentence? "

Xia Yixue glanced at Fang Xiu and asked, "What will Fang Zhonglang do?"

Fang Xiu thought for a while, and said, "We should pay attention to it anyway, and send someone to comfort this general's fragile heart."

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Yan who was next to him couldn't stand it anymore, grabbed his arm, and said angrily: "Don't be ashamed, the game is about to start, go back and watch the game.

I believe that Xia Butou will handle the matter here well..."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Xia Yixue and said, "Xia Butou, right?"

Xia Yixue still had a cold look, but when she saw Zhao Yan, her expression softened a little, and she said: "This is the duty of the head arrester, I should do my best."

Zhao Yan smiled, and said, "I'll thank Butou Xia..."

After finishing speaking, he grabbed Fang Xiu's arm and walked outside the Chunfeng Building: "Hurry up, dawdle for a while, and you may not be able to catch up with Habayashi Wei's game!"

After Zhao Yan and Fang Xiu left Chunfeng Building, Xia Yixue looked at their backs, there was an inexplicable meaning in her eyes, as if... regretting.

On the carriage to the parade ground.

Zhao Yan stared at Fang Xiu with a pair of beautiful eyes, and said nothing.

Fang Xiu was stared at a little hairy, and finally couldn't help asking: "What's on my face?"

Zhao Yan shook her head, leaned closer to him, and asked with a curious look on her face, "You and that Xia Butou..."

Fang Xiu's complexion changed, and he hastily denied it: "We didn't, we weren't, don't guess..."

Zhao Yan stared at him and said coldly, "I haven't said anything yet!"

Fang Xiu looked serious and said, "No matter what you say, my answer will always be this."

"you!"

Just when Zhao Yan wanted to get angry, she suddenly thought of something, smiled and asked, "Then...are you a man?"

Fang Xiu also smiled when he heard this, looked at Zhao Yan, and asked, "Do you want to try?"

Chong——!

Zhao Yan took out a sharp dagger from her arms.

Fang Xiu hastily raised his hands in surrender: "Just kidding, just kidding!"

Only then did Zhao Yan put away the dagger, and asked again: "Do you think Xia Butou looks good?"

This question is a sending proposition.

It would be a bit hypocritical to say it doesn't look good.

After all, his appearance is there, not inferior to the oirans of the big brothels, as long as he is not blind, he can see it,

If you say it looks good...

Fang Xiu glanced at the dagger in Zhao Yan's hand and fell silent.

Among women, the most important thing is appearance, and the most unseen is a woman who is prettier than oneself.

You know, a woman's jealousy is terrible...

Just look at the queen in Snow White. Just because Snow White is prettier than her, she tried every means to get rid of her...

For most women, the queen is a true portrayal of a certain desire protruding from the heart.

After thinking for a long time, Fang Xiu finally thought of a more suitable answer.

That is..."good looking, but not as good looking as you."

In this way, without being hypocritical, Zhao Yi was praised in a disguised form, satisfying her vanity, and it was a nearly perfect answer.

He himself was overwhelmed by his own wisdom.

"Cough cough..."

Fang Xiu cleared his throat, looked at Zhao Yan, and said, "I think...beautiful!"

As soon as the words fell, Zhao Yan showed anger, glared at Fang Xiu, and said loudly: "It's beautiful, why don't you stay there to watch her, what kind of football match!"

"I......"

Fang Xiu wanted to complete the second half of the sentence, but Zhao Yan didn't give him a chance at all, turned his head, looked at the scenery outside the window, and said at the same time: "Stop talking, I don't want to talk to you now!"

Fang Xiu: "..."

The carriage drove fast on the avenue, and soon returned to the review field.

Compared with noon, the number of spectators in the review field was even larger.

In addition to the weather factor, it is also because this new football game is more attractive than queues and bow horses.

At least half of the people who bought tickets were willing to spend so much money because they were interested in the Sixteen Guards football match.

The audience area of ​​the review field is divided into two parts, the general area and the VIP area.

The location where most of the audience is located is the general area.

Fang Xiu's location is the VIP area.

The seats in the ordinary area are very common benches, while those in the VIP area are Taishi chairs.

In addition, there is a special round table in the VIP area, on which there are various melon and fruit snacks, sake tea...

In the entire review field, there are only more than 100 seats in the VIP area.

Most of them were reserved for civil and military officials, and only a few were reserved by Fang Xiu for himself...

Fang Xiu led Zhao Yan to the VIP area, and just as he was seated, he saw a familiar figure.

Wu Yi stood in front of the cart not far from Fang Xiu, arguing with the boy who pushed the cart.

Seeing Fang Xiu, there was a look of resentment on his face, he walked up to him, and said loudly: "Fang, come here and give me an opinion!"

Chapter 164 The Market Determines Value

Fang Xiu walked up to Wu Yi and asked, "What's going on?"

With a look of resentment on Wu Yi's face, he picked up a bowl of sour plum smoothie from the cart and asked, "How much is this bowl of smoothie?"

Fang Xiu glanced at the peddler pushing the cart.

The peddler pushing the cart showed a look of embarrassment, and replied, "My lord, a bowl of sour plum smoothie is one tael of silver."

Wu Yi said angrily: "A bowl of smoothie sells for one tael of silver, what's the difference between this and robbery?

What's more, this smoothie only sells for ten pennies in Chunfenglou, but how come it is sold for one or two taels of silver. "

The boy pushing the cart opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything.

Fang Xiu smiled, and said, "What am I supposed to do, isn't it just a bowl of smoothies, Mr. Wu, the majestic Mr. Wu, still care about this tael of silver?"

Wu Yi said: "It's not about the money, it's just that these profiteers are really hateful. It's too much for a ten-cent silver item to be sold for one or two taels of silver just by changing it!"

When Fang Xiu heard this, he was instantly unhappy, and said, "The price is clearly marked, and whether you buy it or not is a matter of your choice. What is excessive, and what is profiteering?"

Wu Yi glanced at Fang Xiu and asked, "Who are you with, and why are you helping these profiteers all the time?"

"Cough cough..."

Fang Xiu coughed twice, and said, "I call it a helper or not a helper."

Seeing him like this, Wu Yi showed suspicion on his face. He looked the boy up and down, and suddenly felt a little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere...

Finally, a flash of light flashed in his mind, and he remembered, isn't this guy the guard of Fangfu?

Wu Yi glared at Fang Xiu, and said angrily, "I said, why are you helping them to speak? It turns out that the profiteer is you!"

"Who do you call a profiteer?"

Fang Xiu argued hard and said, "Have you ever heard a saying that the market determines the value.

The same bowl of smoothies is sold for ten pennies in the Spring Breeze Building and one or two taels of silver in the review field. This is determined by the market.

In Chunfeng Building, apart from smoothies, there are other cool and refreshing things, which is really not good, and a bowl of tea is only three or four pennies.

But in the review field, the only thing that can really cool off the summer heat is smoothies. Moreover, under the scorching sun, it is not easy to preserve smoothies. One tael of silver is the normal price.

What's more, this is a clearly marked price. Those who want to buy will naturally buy it, and those who don't want to buy will not force it. Why do profiteers talk about it? "

Wu Yi was rendered speechless by Fang Xiu's words, and wanted to refute, but for a while, he couldn't find a reason.

I had no choice but to wave my hand and said, "I can't say no to you, anyway, a profiteer is a profiteer, and today I, Wu Yi, will die of thirst and heat, and I will never take a bite of your smoothie!"

Fang Xiu shrugged and said, "It's up to you."

Then, he took out two bowls of mung bean smoothies from the vendor and walked back to his seat.

Passed a bowl to Zhao Yan, and ate the other bowl by herself.

Seeing this, Wu Yi looked back at the cart, gritted his teeth, but still didn't pay.

Angrily walked to Fang Xiu's side and sat down.

Not far away, the original review field has been moved to the door frame and corner flagpole.

The players of the two teams in Group B have also warmed up on the sidelines, and the game is about to start.

The audience entered the arena one after another, and the entire reviewing field was filled in less than a stick of incense.

Except for the VIP area reserved for the emperor of Chu and all officials, the ordinary area is full of seats.

Everyone's face was filled with anticipation and excitement.

On and off the court, there was a lively atmosphere of the imminent battle.

At the same time, a dozen small carts full of various snacks and smoothies also moved around the review field.

Everywhere I go, I have to stop for a long time.

As soon as the cart that Wu Yi scolded as a profiteer before entered the ordinary area, the smoothies on the cart were swept away, and only a few pieces of greasy ones were left.

Seeing this scene, Wu Yi had an extremely surprised expression on his face, and blurted out: "Sorbets for a tael of silver are sold so fast. When did the capital get so many rich people?"
