Chongxi husband and wife who are sick

"Ayun, what's the matter?" Feng Heng was not very good at talking to people outside, so he just asked dryly.

Si Yun looked up at him lifelessly, "It's nothing, just not in a good mood."

"Why are you in a bad mood? Is it because the rented carriage doesn't work well?" Si Yun didn't leave for a long time, and he rented a carriage specially. The man could only guess about that.

As he said that, he glanced at the carriage at the back. Having been in the army for many years, he has a little ability to identify good horses. The horse looks a little tired and looks tall and strong, but it is not strong and powerful, and its feet are weak.

Such a horse cannot be used as a war horse, but it can still be used as a pulling horse.

Si Yun caught Feng Heng's serious look at the horse's appearance, and his thoughtful behavior should make him feel comfortable, but Si Yun couldn't laugh.

Could he say that he was in a bad mood because he couldn't go back and was tricked by someone?

In order not to vent his emotions on innocent people, he took a deep breath and changed the subject: "It's not about buying things, what kind of things do you want to buy?"

Hearing this, Feng Heng looked back at Si Yun, the young man still frowned unhappily, he wanted to ask again, but the young man had already continued on his own, "I don't see anything in that room, the stool , the bowls and chopsticks are also old, I haven’t cooked for a few days, do you have rice noodles? Do you have any utensils in the kitchen?”

Since he was going to live in this world in the future, he had to re-plan, and the first thing to do was to change his living conditions.

Si Yun continued, and Feng Heng had no choice but to follow his topic, "That house was a long time ago, and the furniture in it was the same, and they all had to be replaced. I haven't had time to buy rice and noodles, as well as bowls and chopsticks, but this time. We may not be able to buy them all."

Not enough to buy... Si Yun squeezed his forehead, remembering their current poor situation, even if they got the dowry back, it wouldn't be much.

"Feng Heng, like this, let's go shopping separately. You buy bowls and chopsticks and some small things. Don't buy too much. You can't carry them. I will buy other things. We will gather here again in an hour." Si Yun told Feng Heng said, seeing that Feng Heng was about to speak, he immediately said: "We buy the two separately, and the speed will be faster."

Then, without waiting for Feng Heng to speak, he left.There's no other way, you can't bring Feng Heng with you if you want change.

As for whether Feng Heng would doubt where his money came from, Si Yun didn't think about it, and he didn't care. He was already very dissatisfied staying here. Do not improve living conditions?At that time, if Feng Heng asks, he can just give a reason.

Before the business channel was opened, money came in slowly, but life improvement was imminent, so Si Yun chose to sell something.

As he walked, he thought about what would be better to sell. In fact, he really didn't want to sell. He collected those collections from place to place. In order to collect them all, he lost several pairs of shoes.

Just as he was thinking, he happened to pass by the academy where Feng Yunjun was studying, and the academy was called Lvyun Academy.Green Cloud Academy is good at teaching and has produced many talented scholars. It can be said that it is a good academy for cultivating students.

If Feng Yunjun is studying here, without accident, he has a great chance of winning the exam next year.If he wins the exam, he is qualified to be an official, and maybe he will become an official in the future. Maybe he can still be born and become a real official.

But so what, Si Yun didn't care how far Feng Yunjun could go, he only knew that if Feng Yunjun dared to help the Feng family deal with him, then he would not be polite.He is not a person who knows nothing in the ivory tower. In society, reading cannot solve all problems.

At this moment, a few students came out of the academy chatting and laughing. Scholars in this era are generally young, and they look like a group of junior high school students.He was about to leave, but he saw a somewhat familiar face among the group of people, who looked a bit like the Feng family.

Feng Yunjun?

Desiring to figure out Feng Yunjun's cards, Si Yun thought about it, and then quietly followed.

The group of scholars walked all the way to the busiest street in the county. After passing a corner, Si Yun chased them out, but there was no one in sight.At first he thought it was Feng Yunjun who had discovered him, but after he saw clearly what street it was, he stopped thinking about it.

This is a flower street, where brothels and gambling houses are all located. People disappeared on this street. The only possibility is that those people entered the building.

Hehe, I can't tell that Feng Yunjun is quite good at playing, and I don't know if the Feng family knows that the students they have high hopes for go to brothels and gambling houses.

But thanks to Feng Yunjun, Si Yun finally figured out what to sell so that his heart wouldn't hurt so much - playing cards.

He turned his head, found two beggars on the street, gave them two pennies, and asked, "Both brothers, I want to ask how many gambling houses are on this street and how are they doing?" .”

The two beggars got the money and enthusiastically gave Si Yun the information he needed.

"There are two gambling houses on this street, Cuiyuntang and Qingshantang. Qingshantang's business is the best, but its reputation is not very good. Cuiyuntang's business is not very good, but its reputation is good. Little brother, if you want to go If you want to play two games, then go to Cuiyun Hall, if you want to make money, then go to Qingshan Hall."

The name was quite elegant, so Si Yun gave the two beggars a couple of pennies, turned around and entered Cuiyun Hall.

Cuiyuntang has a good reputation, but business is not very good. It can be inferred that Cuiyuntang may not be booming for some reason, and Qingshantang, he doesn't think about anything else, just because it is named after Qingshan County, he knows what is behind it His power is not simple, but Cuiyuntang should not be far behind, otherwise it would be impossible to fight against Qingshantang here.

It was later that Si Yun found out that Cuiyun Hall was opened by a big businessman in the capital, and it was not easy to operate because of the distance, while Qingshan Hall was opened by a wealthy local businessman in Qingshan County, so it was at a disadvantage.

After entering Cuiyun Hall, Si Yun went directly to the gambling pool to investigate the situation. There were people from the gambling shop watching in the gambling pool. A new person did not attract their attention, but that person attracted people just by watching but not gambling. Having doubts, the gambling pool manager immediately called one of his subordinates, "I'm afraid that person is from Qingshan Hall, you go and bring him here."

The subordinate got the order and immediately went over to bring the person. What surprised the steward was that the person was brought here without any resistance.

"Little brother, what do you want to do here." The manager put away his doubts and said directly, "If you come to make trouble, don't blame brother for being rude."

"Brother, younger brother didn't come to make trouble, but just have a novelty to show the shopkeeper." Si Yun said.

"A novelty?" The steward was vigilant, "It's the same if you show it to me."

Si Yun just smiled, "No, this thing must be shown to the shopkeeper, it is not available in other places, it is unique."

The steward kept staring at Si Yun, but Si Yun was not timid. After a long time, the steward waved to a man thoughtfully, told the man to keep an eye on the gambling house, and led the man into the back hall of the gambling house. In front of the closed room, the shopkeeper was resting there.

If this person really has a unique novelty, maybe their gambling house can use that thing to compete with Qingshantang.

"You are lucky. The second shopkeeper is here today. Wait here now. I will report." The manager said, then he knocked on the door, said a few words there, and then turned around to let Si Yun in, "Be careful , don’t offend anyone, otherwise no one can save you.”

Si Yun raised his eyebrows and entered the room.

There was an old man with long eyebrows and long beard in the room. Seeing Si Yun coming in, the old man said with a smile, "I heard from the supervisor, you have something novel to show me."

The old man looked kind, but Si Yun knew that it was just an appearance. To be a shopkeeper in this kind of situation, he must have all kinds of mental means. Beautiful playing cards.

Playing cards are made of bone and are white all over, almost exactly like those made of ivory.At that time, he saw someone auctioning ivory plaques at an auction, but he didn't agree with the behavior of hunting elephants for their tusks, so he didn't take the auction.After the auction was over, I found a way to find a pair of fake ivory cards.

Bones are not precious, but playing cards came from the West in modern times. No one played poker in this era. Isn’t this unique? What is unique?As long as the old man is not blind, he will be able to see the value of playing cards.

"This is a poker card, a new type of playing tool. We can use it to play games or to gamble." Si Yun laid out the poker cards in a row, "Common games include bridge, solitaire, and pig arching. , □□, there are also 10:30, blackjack, complex, playing cards, 21K, all kinds, single player and multiplayer can play.”

After finishing speaking, Si Yun put away the playing cards and smiled faintly, "Shopkeeper, do you think mine is a novelty?"

The shopkeeper stared at Si Yun, and Si Yun also stared at the shopkeeper.After a long time, the shopkeeper laughed, stood up for the first time and walked towards Si Yun, and said with interest: "This is indeed a novelty, and there are many ways to play it, it's just a little brother, the old man wants to ask you, what is it? Is it your own?"

Si Yun: "???"

The shopkeeper's gaze moved to Si Yun's face, and that gaze did not contain contempt or disgust, but a normal inquiry.

Si Yun was stunned for a full two seconds before he understood what the shopkeeper meant.Because he was wearing coarse clothes, he didn't look like a son of a rich family, and as a farmer, he didn't look like a person with such a fine domino.

so.

The shopkeeper suspected that he was... a thief?
