It was about 10 o'clock in the morning, and people began to come to the shop.Although there are only a few here and there, because regular customers know what is available in the store, they don't need to be greeted when they come.I ran directly to the porcelain and jade counters held by the shopkeepers and masters, and asked if there was anything new.

Chen Xiaosong was very idle, so he would come over if he had nothing to do, lowered his eyebrows and lowered his arms, as if he was waiting for orders.In fact, he was secretly eavesdropping on what the masters were saying, and stealing a few tricks.

The master shopkeeper glanced at him and knew that he was stealing from him, but since the regular customers were in front of him, it was not easy to chase them away.I had no choice but to order him angrily, let him pour tea for a while, and let him get snacks for a while.

Chen Xiao was skinny, but her movements were swift.Trotting back and forth, not spilling a drop of tea, not dropping any crumbs of dim sum.It made the master shopkeeper lose his temper, so he could only let him continue to stand aside and pretend to be stupid.

It's not that regular customers can't see it, but looking at Chen Xiaonong's eyebrows and almond eyes, with a docile face, it's good to be in a pleasing mood.Naturally, he would not speak for the masters, and would turn a blind eye.

Several regular customers either brought friends or wanted to give gifts, and they didn't stay for long.At noon, they went back with their respective harvests.The shopkeeper will not serve lunch until a big customer comes to the door.

If a big order is made, everyone in the Treading Xuexunxian Pavilion will be rewarded.Even the owner will come and invite a famous cook in the county to make a special banquet.Chen Xiao was lucky enough to experience it once, that is, at that time, he met the owner of the special stove powered by spirit beads.

Of course, the craftsmanship of the famous chef has lived up to this stove, and the taste is the ultimate delicacy that makes people want to swallow their tongues.Chen Xiao still has endless aftertaste.

Today, there are no major customers coming to the door. At noon, several shopkeepers and masters are off work, and only a few shop assistants are left to look after the store.The guys took turns to go out to eat. Chen Xiao went out with Zhao Erhu in the second wave, and the two of them went east and west.

Zhao Erhu looked at his back and shook his head. The food in the east is delicious, but the price is also expensive.Chen Xiao didn't care what others thought.I entered a small but exquisite shop with little decoration, and ordered a chicken noodle soup, a cage of steamed buns, and a small dish of melon pickles.Just this one meal cost twenty copper coins.It's no wonder Zhao Erhu murmured in his heart that he really couldn't save money by eating like this.

But Chen Ling could bear everything else, only this point, and refused to compromise.Can eat good, never eat bad.

After enjoying a delicious and filling lunch, Chen Xiao strolled on the antique street and returned to the store.Zhao Erhu had already returned, and when he saw him, he pointed to the back and said, "Your uncle has come to see you, I'll let him wait for you in your room."

Chen Xiao was taken aback.He stayed here for a few months, and the caravan came to the county again, and the martial artist who taught Hanwa came to see him once during his stay.Presumably that martial artist surnamed Zhou came, Zhao Erhu was there at the time, and Chen Xiao really called him Uncle Zhou.

Chen Ling thought about it and thanked her.He carried a pot of hot tea in the store, took two cups, and went into the backyard.Pushing open the door, Chen Xiao saw a stout man sitting on a seat in the room with a bold gesture.

Chen Xiao's room is in the corner of the backyard, and the orientation is not very good, which makes the room a bit gloomy and cold.During the day, Chen Ling would rather stay in the shop in front than come later, at least there is a charcoal pot for smoking in front.

Chen Xiao said: "Uncle Zhou, it's so cold here, why don't you wait in the shop?" He walked over, put two cups on the table, and poured a cup of hot tea for the cup in front of Master Zhou.

Wushi Zhou watched him pour tea, and said: "All the people in the shop are noble people. As a martial artist like me, how can I sit there to be an eyesore." When Chen Xiao sat down, Wushi Zhou immediately picked up the teacup and drank it.

It can be seen that even a strong martial arts practitioner can't bear to stay in this cold room like an ice cellar for a long time.

Seeing this, Chen Ling got up, brought over the charcoal basin in the room, and took out a few pieces of charcoal from the rattan basket in the corner.

Martial Master Zhou hurried over, stopped him and said, "Don't use it, don't waste it. In the first few days of spring, it's when charcoal is expensive, so save it."

Chen Xiao said: "Uncle Zhou should be sympathetic to me. After my body recovered, I was very afraid of the cold."

Wushi Zhou didn't stop him, but instead asked with concern: "What? Your health is still not in good shape?" After that, he looked Chen Xiao up and down, and frowned, "You're still so thin. He sighed, and sat back on his seat: "Is it the root cause of the disease, how can I explain to your uncle?"

This Martial Master Zhou was acquainted by Uncle Hanwa, and he joined the caravan through his relationship.These years, because of the relationship between Hanwa and Hanwa, I have only met Uncle Hanwa twice.

Although it was because the family couldn't afford to support him, the silly baby was sent out.Hanwa's uncle still cared about this nephew, and when he saw Zhou Wushi, he bowed desperately and asked him to take care of Hanwa.

Chen Xiao sat on the seat next to him, and smiled: "It's not easy to get my life back, uncle will definitely not blame Uncle Zhou."

Master Zhou thought about it too, and said with emotion: "Thanks to your clear head, you spent a lot of money and entrusted someone to buy life-saving medicine, otherwise it would be really dangerous. Life is gone, so what's the use of keeping the money." He turned his head Look at Chen Xiao, "Last time you said that you burned for too long and couldn't remember many things in your head. Now that three months have passed, is it better?"

Chen Xiao had a sad and regretful expression on his face: "No, I still can't remember."

Zhou Wushi raised his big palm like a cattail leaf fan, and patted Chen Xiao's shoulder: "If you can't remember it, just forget it. I went back and inquired about it, and there were some who were burned to the point of being stupid. You're nothing but Just forget about the past, and it won't affect your life. If you don't know anything, just ask us, and we will remind you of what needs to be reminded."

Chen Xiao said in a low voice, "Thank you, Uncle Zhou."

Master Zhou pinched his thin shoulders and said dissatisfiedly: "You are so thin, you need to eat more."

Chen Xiao smiled wryly. Now he not only eats a lot, but also carefully selects and mixes the nutrition. He doesn't grow more meat.

He said with a embarrassed face: "I have eaten a lot now, but it's strange that I don't gain weight."

Martial Master Zhou said disapprovingly: "At the beginning, I was so sick that I almost died. If you recover too quickly, you will consume a lot. It is not impossible to make up for it afterwards. In addition, you still have a few years to live, so eating too much is nothing. It can only be said that you still don’t eat enough.”

Chen Ling just laughed and didn't speak.

It's not that he hasn't experienced growth and development, no matter how long he grows, he shouldn't be able to eat like he is now.

Besides, it's too good to quickly consume the body, and it shouldn't be.The doctor had told him at the beginning that the elixir was very effective, healed quickly after taking it, and there was no sequelae.

Four months ago, he went to the sitting doctor for a follow-up visit.The other party said that his body has recovered, except for some frailty, he is no different from ordinary people.

However, if ordinary people eat like this, they will already become fat like blowing out air.Chen Xiao wondered what this had to do with him crossing over.If you can't tell others because of this, you can only bury your confusion in your heart.

Seeing that he was silent, Zhou Wushi thought he was depressed.He took out a small package from his arms, put it on the table, and pushed it to him.

Zhou Wushi said: "This is the money you saved with me before. You keep it yourself, and you can buy any supplements you need, don't waste it."

Chen Xiao was taken aback: "Uncle Zhou? Why didn't I hear you mention it last time? Don't just use your own money to frame me just because I don't remember?"

Wushi Zhou was amused, and raised his hand to pat Chen Xiao's forehead: "What are you thinking? This is the money you saved to build a house and marry a wife!"

The pain from this blow made Chen Xiao believe that what he said was absolutely true.Only then did he open the small package, and inside was a small pile of shiny silver round coins.

The popular currency among the people here is still based on precious metals such as gold, silver and copper.

The smallest is the copper plate, which is very similar to the ancient coins before, but instead of a square hole in the middle, it has a round hole.The currency unit in the middle is the silver coin in front of you, also known as silver money.Because silver money is a large-denomination currency that is mainly circulated among the people, it has the same status as a hundred yuan.All currencies have the same general name as Chen Xiao's previous life, and they are also called "money".The most valuable coins are gold coins. Chen Xiao guessed that they should be made of gold mixed with alloy components.

The exchange between these currencies is: one gold coin equals one hundred silver coins equals ten thousand copper plates.

Chen Xiao earns a lot and spends a lot. After working in Taxue Xunxian Pavilion for five months, he has saved fifty yuan, which is fifty silver coins the size of one yuan before he was alive.And the pile of coins in front of him, at a rough glance, actually has one hundred fifty or sixty coins.

Zhou Wushi said: "After you transferred to the guard, your salary has of course been raised. In addition to expenses, you have also saved a lot. But because you have been living with the caravan and have no place of your own. That's why you asked me to keep the money. I thought that I would go back to your uncle's village after saving a lot, build a house and marry a wife. But I didn't expect that you would suffer such a big hardship and your body would become so weak that you couldn't continue to follow the caravan. Dry."

Chen Xiao didn't tell Zhou Wushi that he was earning more than before as a guard every month, so Zhou Wushi naturally felt sorry for him.In his opinion, although martial artists are hard-working and dangerous, they earn a lot of money.

"You keep the money, I still have something to tell you." Zhou Wushi said.

Chen Ling rewrapped the package and put it in the closet.After he sat down, he asked, "What's the matter, you said."

Zhou Wushi frowned and said: "I came to you this time because of your uncle, and I want you to go back quickly."

Chen Xiao said in surprise: "You said...my uncle wants me to go back quickly? Is something wrong?"

Master Zhou said in a disapproving tone: "I heard that the village you lived in before has a fairy gate to recruit disciples. I think your uncle wants you to go back and give advice."

Hanwa's uncle's family has three sons and a daughter.The boss, like Hanwa's parents, died on the way to escape.The second child is a girl who is engaged.The third child is not very old, only 11 years old.The fourth child was born here and is five years old.

Before fleeing, this big family was a farmer, and when they came here, they also worked as long-term labor for the richest family in the village.He didn't have much insight, so he panicked when he encountered the matter of selecting disciples from the fairy gate, and wanted to call Hanwa back so that he could discuss it.

Probably from their point of view, Hanwa has seen a lot of traveling around, and now he works as a waiter in a famous shop in the county city, so he has a wide range of knowledge.

Zhou Wushi felt that there was no way for a fool to choose an apprentice from the immortal sect.What's more, this kid doesn't have a fairy fate, so it's just a waste of time to go back, not to mention the delay in work, seeing that others are selected, he has no chance, and is even more disappointed.

Unexpectedly, Han Wa's eyes lit up immediately after hearing his uncle's unreasonable request.He didn't even hesitate, and directly said that he wanted to go back!
