Chapter 240 Meeting Lin Zhian on the Road



Chapter 240 Meeting Lin Zhian on the Road

"Grandma, why are you covering my mouth?"

"You kid, if you have money, just pick it up quietly. Are you shouting because you want people to snatch your money?" After saying this, Aunt Niu let go of her hand.

Ah Fu finally reacted and looked at the people around him, who were all quietly and quickly picking up the copper coins on the ground.

"What are you standing there for? Ah Fu, come behind me and pick it up quickly."

After Li Junyong led the woman away from the crowd, he felt bored and quickly returned to the bulletin board to see what was written on it.

I never expected that I stepped on something hard. I looked down quickly and almost screamed, then looked at the people around me.

Wow, the "money-scattering boy" has come over here. Li Junyong quickened his pace and followed the carriage silently. There were a few copper coins scattered everywhere he passed by. Li Junyong quickly stepped on them when no one else noticed, and then squatted down to pick them up.

It’s a good day today.

Then he looked back at the place where people were still pushing and shoving each other. Everyone here had learned to be smart and was hiding the money. Li Junyong was ecstatic. It was really effortless to pick up the money. He didn't expect that he could pick up money for the second time. The last time he picked up money was in Gu Qinghan's collapsed house.

Looking at the carriage speeding ahead, I wonder which God of Wealth is sitting in it.

Li Junyong was not the only one who discovered that the copper coins were scattered from a carriage. Many people also followed Li Junyong's example and rushed to the side of the carriage.

"Who do you think the people in this carriage are? They are spending money so lavishly. Aren't they really afraid of being robbed by some bad-hearted people?"

"Look at the configuration of that carriage. Who else in this county can afford to sit in it except the prefect? ​​Anyone who dares to do this may have a back-up plan. How can we afford to offend him?"

"We just came out to watch the fun and earn a few coins. Let's just be happy."

Two passers-by stood aside and discussed.

Dong Qing had almost spent all the copper coins in his hand. He put the remaining few directly into his pocket, then quickened the pace of the carriage. Finally, he saw a place with two intersections. He pulled the rope and turned left. There was no one on this road at all. Dong Qing breathed a sigh of relief.

After a while, I finally saw the plaque of Fumanlou.

Dong Qing found a place to park the car, "Master, we're at Fu Man Lou."

"Ah."

An Zeyu yawned, opened the curtain and got off the carriage, looking at the Fu Man Lou in front of him. Although it was not as luxurious as the one in North City, his father said that this was the branch with the best business, so he came here to check out the situation.

"Master, why don't we eat something first and then go find the shopkeeper later." Dong Qing touched his empty stomach and tentatively asked An Zeyu beside him.

"Of course, I'll fill my stomach first, and we'll talk about the shopkeeper later." After saying that, he entered the store.

It was early in the morning and not yet time for lunch, so there were few people in the restaurant.

Hu Zhanggui sat in front of the counter, flipping through the notebook in his hand idly. The two shop assistants also stood aside, paying attention to their surroundings.

Seeing An Zeyu and Dong Qing coming in, one of the waiters came forward to greet them and led them to their seats. "My two guests, here are today's dishes. What would you like to order?"

An Zeyu looked at the dishes of the guests at the table next to him. Those people seemed to be eating quite happily, with wine and meat. "Waiter, bring me all the dishes for the guests at that table over there."

"Okay, wait a moment."

The waiter put away the menu and walked towards the kitchen.

……

Li Junyong followed the traces of the carriage and walked all the way. When he reached the turning point, there was no trace of the copper coins. Li Junyong had to go back the same way. Thanks to the Lantern Festival, the snow on the street was shoveled clean. When everyone picked up the copper coins on the ground, the people on the road gradually dispersed.

"Junyong! It's really you!" A pair of hands suddenly reached out from behind and put their hands on Li Junyong's shoulders. Li Junyong, who was still concentrating on counting the number of copper coins he picked up, was startled and almost threw the copper coins in his hand away.

"hiss…"

Li Junyong put all the copper coins in his hand into the cloth bag on his waist and put it in his arms. He looked at the person who came and cursed: "Fatty Lin, why don't you make any noise when you walk? I almost beat you up."

"Oh, Junyong, you can't blame me for this. You were too engrossed." Lin Zhian put his arms around Li Junyong's neck and spoke like brothers.

Li Junyong struggled to get away, glanced at Lin Zhian, and joked: "Fatty Lin, I haven't seen you for so long, why do you look bigger?"

"Really? I guess not." When Lin Zhian heard what Li Junyong said, he quickly reached out and touched his face and denied it.

"By the way, Junyong, will you and Qinghan come to the Lantern Festival?" Lin Zhian wanted to invite them when he knew there was a Lantern Festival, but he didn't know where to tell them. Fortunately, he met them today.

"I think so." Li Junyong nodded. It was his first time to see the Lantern Festival in Lin'an County. His parents should also come out to see it.

Lin Zhian patted Li Junyong on the shoulder and said excitedly, "That's fine. If you have time, go to the entrance of Sanniang's clothing store. There will also be some activities there, with lots of good things at a discount."

"A clothing store?"

"Will it be free clothes or something like that?"

Li Junyong made a bold guess. After all, this was the young master who came to inform him, so he thought there should be something good.

"Of course..." Lin Zhian stopped talking halfway while being mysterious. Seeing Li Junyong's expectant look, the corners of his mouth curled up.

"If I tell you, there will be no surprises. Just wait. I won't treat you unfairly, brother."

Li Junyong knew this was the case. He curled his lips, looked up, and finally arrived at the grain store.

"Master, Master." Ading ran over from a distance through the crowd, stood in front of Lin Zhian and took a breath, then slowly spoke, "Master, Madam is calling you to go home."

After Ading finished speaking, he looked up and noticed Li Junyong behind his master, and quickly greeted him.

"My mother called me to go home. Is there something wrong? If it's not urgent, I'll go back later." Lin Zhian thought of who else was at home and felt like going back.

"Master, if it's not an urgent matter, how can I rush over here and look for you everywhere? Let's go, Master." Ading stood beside Lin Zhian and advised.

Li Junyong waved his hand, "Zhi'an, you go back first, we will meet again another day."

"This..." Actually, I really don't want to go back.

Lin Zhian resisted in his heart.

"Master, let's go." Ading gestured again.

In the end, Lin Zhian followed Ading back home reluctantly.
