Man in the Heavens: Rewarding the Good and Punishing the Evil

As for buying coal, it is even more early in the morning, when the water vapor is heavy in the morning, and only those who load coal and unload coal will not suffer.

The shop clerk has worked for many years and knows these things well. Years of experience told him that most of the people who come to the shop in the afternoon are because they don’t have enough lamp oil at home, or they need to use candles.

Therefore, he had a question.

It's just that Erwan, the shopkeeper, didn't expect that he guessed wrong.

"Second brother, help me weigh and weigh, I want to sell firewood!"

I only heard a clear voice say something, and then there was the sound of firewood piles falling to the ground.

Am I dreaming?

The waiter quickly widened his eyes and saw that there were indeed two Dong people in ragged clothes standing in the lobby, and then he realized that he had heard correctly.

Hell, there are still people selling firewood in the afternoon?

Do you think the firewood is too heavy and you have to pay too much for it?

With deep doubts, he rolled his sleeves and walked out of the counter with his shoulders hunched.

When he came to the two of them, the shop clerk glanced at the neat pile of firewood, which was evenly thick and thin, and suddenly had a clue in his heart.

Then he asked: "Your firewood is pretty good, how much do you want to sell for a catty?"

Coal has good pulverized coal and anthracite, and firewood naturally has thorny shrubs and rough firewood, so the prices are also different.

Chen Chong's firewood is relatively uniform, even if it is the same weight, it will burn longer in the stove, and the price is of course different.

He coughed dryly: "My firewood is more expensive."

"expensive?"

The waiter in the shop looked at the firewood, and saw that the wood grain was clear and dry, obviously not freshly cut wet goods, so he asked: "Dry firewood will naturally be more expensive, but it is impossible to increase too much, so you can make a price."

Chen Chong hummed, and said in a muffled voice, "I want six hundred Wen."

"Six hundred words?"

The waiter looked at the firewood and said in disbelief, "Brother, have you lost your mind and gone crazy? No matter how you look at your firewood, it only weighs more than 300 catties?"

At the market price, this kind of firewood is not worth two cents and five catties. If you want to sell it for six hundred yuan, you have to have fifteen hundred catties.

When he said that, his attitude was pretty good, and he didn't yell at him on the spot.

Chen Chong kept his face unchanged, and continued: "No, you have to ask for six hundred Wen."

"Oh?"

A voice came from the back hall, and then a short and strong man walked out.

The man gave the waiter a look, and the waiter understood it, and immediately went outside with a bamboo broom, pretending to clean up the leaves and wood debris in front of the shop.

Chen Chong turned around, looked at the person in front of him, and asked, "Brother is the shopkeeper?"

The short and strong man nodded and said: "Bucai's surname is Zhu, and he lives in this small shop. My brother is here to do business, and my younger brother is very welcome. But you are talking about six hundred Wen, I'm afraid it doesn't make sense."

Chen Chong chuckled, supported Chai He and said, "To be honest, brother, it's the first time I came to Kunming, but unfortunately I ran out of money on the road and had no place to stay, so I had to sell firewood for emergencies.

Meeting Brother Zhu today must have been a predestined fate. Brother Zhu has red face, wide ears and bright eyes. "

The short and strong man's heart moved, and he asked tentatively: "This brother, I don't know how much money I want, what do I want to do? Don't think that I have a shop, but I have to manage everything in this city.

If your Excellency is really short of expenses, my younger brother is willing to take out [-] Wen and treat you to a bowl of wine. Brother Chaihe can sell it at another house, how about it? "

Hearing these words, Chen Chong secretly praised in his heart, no wonder this guy can lurk in front of Wu Sangui's eyes, it's really not an ordinary level.

He immediately shook his head and said: "Brother Zhu, forgive me, six hundred cash is a must, I need this money urgently."

"Urgent?"

The short and strong man stretched out his hand and led the two of them to sit aside. Then he asked curiously: "I don't know what's urgent for you, so it's not convenient for you to tell me."

With a smile on his face, Chen Chong squeezed a sign in his hand, and then said: "Brother Zhu, listen carefully, I have such a use—"

"Forty-nine points for the entry to watch a play, one hundred and eighty points to determine the universe;

72 in front of Zhongyi Hall, 21 yuan to buy fruit swallow;

The first 36 of Fude Temple, except Qing still owes you three Wen. "

Hearing Chen Chong read out six sentences, the short and strong man's face turned serious, knowing the identity of the visitor.

He made a faint fingerprint in his hand, and asked back: "Brother, I'm afraid the calculation is wrong. Since you still owe me three Wen, it should be Lu Bai and San Wen."

Chen Chong shook his head: "It's not wrong, it's not wrong, it's just right. My mother, Hua Ting, once said that I would redeem my body with three."

"Brothers, please!"

As soon as the words were finished, the short and strong man changed his attitude, quickly got up and opened the curtain, and brought Chen Chong and the two to the back hall.

He closed the two doors vigilantly, fixed the latch, and then asked seriously: "What do you call my brother, and what can I do when I come to Kunming? If I can help you, I will definitely not hesitate!"

Without saying a word, Chen Chong took out a wooden token from his pocket.

The short and strong man quickly took the wooden token and carefully identified it. After rubbing it for a long time, seeing that the token was indeed correct, he immediately held the token and bowed to salute.

"It turned out to be Brother Chen face to face. I heard that Brother Chen was a hero. He killed the thief, Oboi. It's a pity that he was lucky. I didn't expect to meet him today. It's really lucky."

Chen Chong took back the token, waved his hand and said, "I won't talk about the polite words, I came to see Brother Zhu for business."

The short and strong man nodded quickly: "Brother Chen has just been appointed as the deputy head of the Qingmu Hall, and he has gone to Yunnan and Guizhou. He must have a heavy responsibility. We have 26 brothers in Kunming. As long as Brother Chen needs it, just order it." !"

Chen Chong spent so much effort to find this place, of course he would not be polite to him, besides, this matter is not dangerous, there is no risk of other people's lives.

After a moment of recollection, he said: "It's like this. I came to Kunming this time to find a person. I should become a monk in a temple or a Taoist temple near Kunming City. The Dharma name seems to be 'Silence'. Please help me find the whereabouts of this person. And don't startle the snake."

"A monk?"

The short and strong man pondered for a moment, and immediately agreed: "I'll leave this matter to Lao Zhu! But Brother Chen has to tell me how old this man is, when he became a monk, and what he looks like, so that I won't make a mistake."

"I don't know anything."

Chen Chong shook his head again and again: "I only know that this is a woman, and she is a pretty woman."

"Looking for a woman who has become a monk?"

The stocky man was stunned.
