Start with Tongfu

Chapter 227
Out of the Li Mansion.

Xiao Qing, who had been by Fang Yang's side in the study and didn't speak, finally couldn't help it.

She looked at Fang Yang's back as he was walking forward, and after thinking for a while, she took a few steps quickly: "Brother Fang, how did you know Master Li Tingli?"

"How did you meet?"

Hearing this, Fang Yang thought for a while and smiled, "At that time, I had only entered the rivers and lakes a few years ago, so it should be five years ago! He was released from the capital at that time..."

As he said that, Fang Yang stopped and glanced at Xiaoqing beside him, looked at her big bright eyes, and said with a smile: "Actually, it's a release, it's better to say it's a relegation, although he was obviously promoted from the Minister of Rites to the Ministry of Rites." Shangshu made a big step forward, but he was sent to Nanzhili for retirement.

That is, on his way to Nanzhili, I saved his life by chance and prevented him from being assassinated by political enemies!And I think that although he is a bit bureaucratic, he is not bad, so I accompanied him on a trip to Nanzhili.

And our relationship became closer on that way! "

"So that's the case! No wonder he treats you so well, and you are his savior!"

After listening to Fang Yang's words, Xiaoqing nodded suddenly, and understood what she saw in Li's residence just now.

"Yes!"

Seeing this, Fang Yang smiled, "I sent him to Nanzhili and then left. I don't know how he operates himself, but he was transferred back to the capital very quickly, directly killed the original Minister of Rites, and returned to the capital. Cabinet! In fact, he entered the cabinet relatively late, and according to the ranking, it is not his turn to be the chief assistant.

But he just had the means, and he quickly got rid of the previous elders, took over by himself, and became the chief assistant!That's why I came to him. With his means, as long as he helps Guo Juxia, there is absolutely no chance of tomorrow's Dongchang comeback! "

Nodding, Xiao Qing smiled at Fang Yang: "Then I want to thank you on behalf of the master!"

"If you really want to thank me, then go on shopping with me!"

After looking at Xiaoqing, Fang Yang continued to walk forward.

……

And when Fang Yang was discussing with Li Ting.

In Guo Juxia's study.

After Guo Juxia met with the three court ministers, he explained the matter of Jianchang Mansion in detail.

Their original counterattack plan was re-checked to fill in the gaps, and the goals were re-established.

Originally, he just wanted to cause Dongchang to suffer, but now Guo Juxia has dozens of Dongchang people in his hands, and he has obtained countless handles from Dongchang. These are all bargaining chips.

What he was thinking about was to pull Wei Zhongxian off his horse.

The next day, early in the morning.

Fang Yang got up and walked out of the guest room.

I met Guo Juxia and Mrs. Guo in the lobby.

After some conversation, he bid farewell to Guo Juxia and Mrs. Guo, stating that he would return to Qixia Town.

In this regard.

Guo Juxia and Guo Juxia naturally tried their best to persuade them to stay, but Fang Yang was determined and declined with a smile.

At last.

After saying goodbye to Guo Juxia, Mrs. Guo, and Xiaoqing, Fang Yang walked out of Guo Mansion under Xiaoqing's reluctant eyes.

But watching Fang Yang leave, Guo Juxia, who was sent to the door, sighed: "I don't know what will happen!"

"Don't worry too much!"

Hearing this, Mrs. Guo smiled and comforted Guo Juxia, "With the help of a few adults, nothing will happen!"

"I'm afraid it's difficult. Although we have sufficient evidence, in the final analysis, it still depends on what the Holy One thinks~!" Shaking his head, Guo Juxia turned around and entered the Guo Mansion.

After Fang Yang left the Guo Mansion, he walked directly outside the city.

After leaving the city, he called out Xiao Huang and returned to Qixia Town.

Fang Yang didn't want to get involved in the affairs of the imperial court too much, it was too tiring to play tricks with those old officials.

It's better to leave it to Guo Juxia to deal with it.

Anyway, he has already told Guo Juxia everything he knows, and even went to get him a heavyweight foreign aid.

It's better for me to go back early and live a carefree and funny life every day.

……

After an hour or so.

Fang Yang has already arrived at Qixia Town.

But he didn't go back immediately, but asked Xiao Huang to go back first, and then went to the Yamen.

I met with Lou Zhixian, who had been worried about Guo Juxia's letters.

"Consultant Fang, what happened to the six doors?"

As soon as they met, Lou Zhixian couldn't wait to ask.

"It's all right, don't worry too much about Louzhi County, but he just asked me to help hunt down a fugitive!"

The reason why Fang Yang came to the Yamen first was because he knew that with the character of the magistrate who was concerned about the country and the people, he would definitely be concerned about his going to Beijing.

That's why I went to the Yamen first, so that the old man can feel at ease!
Hearing Fang Yang's words, County Magistrate Lou let out a sigh of relief and murmured, "That's good, that's good!"

See this, smile.

Afterwards, Fang Yang chatted casually with Lou Zhixian, and then left.

I don't know.

Walking out of the yamen, Fang Yang was startled by the sight in front of him as soon as he arrived at West Street.

I saw that there was a lot of people in an open space beside the West Street, and the people of Qixia Town surrounded the open space tightly, making it airtight.

A burst of discussions filled it, and the crowing of the rooster kept ringing out.

As soon as he got close, Fang Yang felt a smell of chicken feces, and waved his hand to his nose.

Moving forward, I wanted to squeeze in, but found that there were too many people, and there was no place for him to stand.

Shake his head.

Instead of squeezing, he jumped up and went directly to the roof next to the open space, looking down.

I see.

A wooden platform ten meters long, three meters wide, and one meter high was erected on the open space where there was nothing, and on the side of the wooden platform away from West Street, a large piece of cloth was erected, which read : Qixia Town, the first chicken king competition.

And under the cloth strips, there are five tea tables covered with red cloth, and several items are placed on each tea table.

In the front and bottom of the stands, there were several tables, and some famous figures in Qixia Town were invited to sit at the tables.

The table is in the middle.

At this moment, Bai Zhantang and Guo Furong were wearing red flowers on their chests, and their cheeks were painted like a monkey's buttocks. They were each holding an old corn, and they were facing everyone with elegant smiles on their faces.

Just like the two hosts.

Seeing this, Fang Yang also understood what Bai Zhantang and the others were up to.

But at the same time, a doubt arose in Fang Yang's heart.

The reason why this scene appeared in the original play is because the chicken dealer from Qingfengling, with his daughter Xiaohui, transported [-] chickens to Qixia Town. Originally, these chickens were ordered by Yihonglou.

But when they arrived at Qixia Town, they found that Yihonglou was declared bankrupt and closed down because of arbitrarily quarreling with Tong Xiangyu.

In this way, no one would buy their chickens, but Qingfengling is more than 100 miles away from Qixia Town. When they originally transported them here, several chickens died on the road. If they can’t be sold, and if they are transported back, they will all die after a toss on the road and catch up with chicken plague~!

Moreover, when he came here, in order to make money, the chicken dealer borrowed a lot of money from his neighbors. If the chicken died and he couldn't sell the money to pay off the debt, his daughter Xiaohui would have to be taken away. Being a maid may even be a child bride-in-law.

Therefore, he sold chickens everywhere, but firstly, the quantity of chickens was too large, and secondly, the original chickens in Qixia Town were saturated.

After selling and selling, only a few were sold.

Looking at these crowded chickens in the cages, think about the fact that they have to eat dozens of catties of feed every day. If things go on like this, something big will happen.

Therefore, he no longer retails, and goes directly to restaurants, inns and other places to sell wholesale.

By chance, the first inn he found was the largest inn in the town: Tongfu Inn!
Entering the inn, after he told his story, Tong Xiangyu and others immediately softened their hearts when they heard it. They couldn't bear to see the chicken dealer's family ruined and Xiaohui was taken as a child bride, so they decided to sell chickens for him!
But he has more than 300 chickens. If it is based on the ten cents a chicken dealer gave at the beginning, then it is almost like a free gift, even if it is sold, it is not a big deal.

Therefore, Tong Xiangyu proposed that she buy all the chickens at [-] cents a piece, but was stopped by Guo Furong and others.

It's not that Guo Furong and the others don't want to help, but where are the chickens bought and raised?what to eatWhat about hygiene?
A word to awaken the dreamer.

Tong Xiangyu gave up his plan to buy it alone, but apart from this method, Tong Xiangyu and others couldn't think of any other way.Under such circumstances, naturally, the burden of selling chickens fell on the old Jianghu, Bai Zhantang.

After Bai Zhantang thought for a while, he thought of the crazy scene of the gang of thieves when he participated in the Thief King Contest and won the title of Thief Saint.

An idea struck me, and I came up with this gimmick of a chicken king competition as a means of selling chickens!

But this.

It was also where Fang Yang was puzzled.

Now, the place where Yihong Building was originally opened has been bought by him, and Yihong Building is gone.Naturally, the scene where Yihonglou went to order chicken from the chicken dealer would never happen again!
Since no one ordered the chicken, this incident should not have happened.

But the problem is, it still happened to him now!

There must be something wrong with this!
Therefore, Fang Yang planned to ask the chicken king in detail after Bai Zhantang and others held the chicken king competition, and met the chicken dealer by the way to see how he came to Qixia Town.

When Fang Yang was frowning and thinking about this question.

On the stage.

Bai Zhantang, whose face was painted like a monkey's buttocks, raised the corn to his mouth as a microphone, and said with a smile, "Ladies and gentlemen!"

The voice fell.

Another host, Guo Furong, also immediately raised the corn and said with a smile, "Everyone!"

"Good afternoon everyone~!" The two finished in unison.

"Okay~!"

The people watching around and the contestants applauded one after another.

After the cheers and applause gradually subsided.

"Welcome everyone to come here and participate in the first Chicken King Contest!" Bai Zhantang spoke first with an eloquent voice.

The voice fell.

Guo Furong immediately shook her head slightly, and looked at the audience affectionately: "The vast sky gave birth to our history and civilization!"

"Time flies, and it makes us hardworking and kind!"

"Under this clear sky, we sing~!"

"In this vast land, we fly freely~!"

Speaking of the word "soaring", Bai Zhantang immediately raised his voice and waved his hands excitedly.

"Okay~!"

Seeing this, there was another burst of thunderous applause from the audience.

"Next, let's introduce to you the prizes of this year's Chicken King Contest. By the way, do you know what it is?"

As he spoke, Bai Zhantang looked at Guo Furong beside him.

"I don't know, but it is said that they are all very valuable things!"

Hearing this, Guo Furong shook her head cooperatively.

"That's right, let us introduce it to you now!"

After speaking, under the curious eyes of the audience, Bai Zhantang and Guo Furong walked to a few coffee tables at the back.

Bai Zhantang pointed to the several beautifully packaged boxes on the first coffee table, and said in a loud voice, "This is the shopkeeper Liu from the Rouge Shop on West Street. He specially provided five boxes of Rouge from the Western Regions for this competition."

"Rouge is the favorite of girls. There is nothing wrong with it. Look at the rouge on my face, and you will know a thing or two. Especially this kind of rouge from the Western Regions. Once you put it on, you will look radiant and look back. The rate reached [-] percent!"

Guo Furong, who was standing next to the second coffee table, immediately answered, "But this is not so attractive to ordinary men, so we prepared this..."

As she said that, Guo Furong pointed to the items on the coffee table beside her: "This is the four treasures and five sets of the study provided by Hanyuanzhai, shopkeeper Wei, and they are all the best!"

"That's right, this is the favorite of scholars. It is said that using it can greatly increase the chances of getting a title on the gold list! Also, come! Everyone, look here."

Bai Zhantang walked a few steps, pointed to a billboard with the three big characters 'Hanyuanzhai' standing beside the table, "It is the four treasures of the study provided by this 'Hanyuanzhai', everyone remember it! The Four Treasures of the Study, please look for Hanyuanzhai! Moreover, there is another piece of good news to tell everyone, that is..."

After a pause, Bai Zhantang smiled and said, "Treasurer Wei said, as long as you are participating in this event, if you go to buy the Four Treasures of the Study, you can get a [-]% discount!"

"The opportunity is rare, don't miss it~!" Guo Furong was on the side, showing off her cuteness.

But seeing Bai Zhantang and Guo Furong introduced Hanyuanzhai emphatically.

Shopkeeper Wei, who was sitting near the stands, immediately took the lead in applauding, with a look of satisfaction on his face.

This wave of sponsorship is not a loss!
