Chapter 41 Tea House
This tea house mainly sells self-grown tea, one is called sweet tea and the other is called bitter tea. The former can soothe the body and mind, while the latter can clear away heat and relieve fire. Luo Kai tasted it and it was really effective. After drinking the sweet tea, he became restless.
The qi and blood are obviously soothing. Although the bitter tea tastes bitter, it has a unique taste. There is a refreshing coolness in the bitterness.
People like sweets when they are young, while adults like some pungent flavors, such as cigarettes, alcohol, coffee, tea, etc. Just like savoring life, only by experiencing the ups and downs can we understand the true meaning of life.
Luo Kai stayed in the teahouse for the past two days and did not go out. He only slept and ate every day. Xiaozhuo served him food and drink like a little daughter-in-law. He happily shuttled between the canteen and the warehouse every day, trying his best to let the teahouse owner do something.
Some delicious food.
For Luo Kai, this was a magical day, because there was unlimited meat supply, and he almost ate a cow in two days.
When you get up in the morning, you first drink a pot of bitter tea and perform a set of Weilong Fist to spread the energy and blood and speed up the recovery of the body. Then teach Xiaozhuo to practice a few contortion exercises. The little girl has a soft body and is suitable for this.
Bodysuit.
However, deep-level muscle and bone strengthening cannot be accomplished with just a few external movements. It must rely on external force.
Luo Kai didn't have the ability to forge bones. Now that he thought about it, Shui Sou, who taught him physical skills in the first place, probably also had a mysterious power that could penetrate the skin and muscles directly to the bones, transforming the original structure of the bones.
After finishing the work, I continued to sleep. The physical fatigue recovered quickly, but the mental depression was not so easy to recover. Now I can't do anything energetic. The reason why I taught Xiaozhuo the contortion technique was because I accidentally did it during practice.
After letting this little girl see it, I couldn't stand her pestering her all day long, so I gave him some perfunctory instructions.
The tea house has a very good business, and every morning a group of richly dressed old men will come in, sipping tea and holding a newspaper to discuss the affairs of their country, country and world.
Today we talked about another major event that is closely related to Longyang County. It turns out that Duke Ivan, the great lord of the Star Horse Lord Kingdom, signed a recruitment order for the Dragon Shark pirates, which means that the notorious South China Sea pirates have become a legitimate force. From now on, the Dragon Shark
Pirates are likely to choose several coastal counties as their base, and Longyang County is one of them.
A group of old men were sighing, and an old man with a long beard said with a sad face: "The South China Sea pirates burned, killed, and looted in the county in the early years, and did a lot of unscrupulous things. The great lord tolerated it, and I am afraid that he will have to do it in the future.
Repeat the same mistakes!"
Another green-faced old man shook his head and said: "You can't say that. The great lord has his own overall considerations. There is constant friction between our Xingma Kingdom and Nanzhao Kingdom. Both sides have gathered hundreds of thousands of soldiers in Tieheng Mountain. In the past two years, they will definitely
There was a big battle.
Xingma Kingdom is short of resources and needs to import half of its coal or iron ore. Otherwise, it would not compete with Nanzhao Kingdom for the iron ore vein. The war will be a war of attrition. By then, land transportation will be blocked by Nanzhao Kingdom.
If maritime traffic is still hijacked by pirates, this battle will be lost."
The old man with a long beard was still angry: "Then we can't be so tolerant. We really can't contact the superior country. The Dongyuan State has always strictly ordered all human countries not to block traffic for any reason. The Nanzhao Kingdom will never dare to disobey the superior country.
Order."
"Brother Hu, you are wrong. Dongyuan Shangguo wants several lords to kill each other and reduce each other's strength. When the time comes to fight together, they will definitely turn a blind eye!"
While the two parties were arguing incessantly, a beautiful young woman wearing a green windbreaker walked into the teahouse. She glanced at her lightly and walked through the hall expressionlessly.
"Hey, it seems to be the third lady."
"Yes, the chief deacon is not here. I heard that the third lady is very busy. Why are you interested in coming to the tea house to drink tea?"
As soon as the beautiful young woman walked through the corridor and entered the backyard, she saw a childish girl washing clothes by the sink. She couldn't even rub a thick winter coat at her age, and she was twisting it with a sad face.
The young woman felt sad and distressed, and hurriedly stepped forward: "Xiao Zhuo, my little baby, you scared me to death."
When Xiao Zhuo saw her, he smiled and raised the wet and hard clothes in his hands: "Sanniang, I know how to wash clothes, but these clothes are too hard to rub."
The young woman held Xiao Zhuo's red hands, shedding tears of distress and complaining incoherently: "How can Lao Fu do this? I just have to buy clothes if I don't have any. How can I let you wash them?"
"No, these clothes are not mine, but my elder brother's."
"The person who saved you? Where is he? We must repay him well."
"He's sleeping in there. My eldest brother may be asleep. Sanniang, don't call him. Please help me wash these clothes. My eldest brother has no clothes to wear in the past two days."
Luo Kai had no money to buy clothes. This coat had been worn all winter without being washed, and a lot of blood had soaked through it. It was already somewhat hardened, so it was understandable that it would be difficult to clean.
The beautiful young woman took off her windbreaker. She was from a lower class background, so washing clothes was not a problem. While washing, she blamed herself: "It's all my fault, Sanniang. I'm so busy these days that I don't even know if you lost it. What if something happened to you?"
It’s too late, Sanniang won’t be able to live anymore.”
Xiao Zhuo shook his head obediently: "It's okay, Sanniang, I don't blame you for this. If it weren't for this, I wouldn't know Big Brother. He has a very small pistol, which is very powerful. He can beat a group of people by himself."
Show your head." He stood up and made shooting gestures, his big eyes full of joy.
The dangerous young woman at that time had already heard Uncle Fu talk about it, but when she heard Xiao Zhuo talk about it, she had a different feeling. She imagined how helpless a frail little girl was when she was taken away, and her eyes turned red and she shed tears.
After seeing this, Xiao Zhuo quickly changed the subject: "By the way, when will dad come back?"
"I guess I'll be back in the next two days, and I won't let those evil people go by then." The young woman wiped her tears and said fiercely.
At noon, Xiao Zhuo ran to the kitchen and yelled for the chef to prepare lunch, and even started cooking himself.
Luo Kai finally woke up. When the young woman saw him, she immediately bowed and said, "I am Xiao Zhuo's Sanniang. Thank you for saving Xiao Zhuo."
Luo Kai turned aside and waved his hand: "You're welcome, do you want to take Xiao Zhuo away?"
"Well, I have transferred back a hundred guards, safety is not a problem."
After lunch, the young woman told her that they were going to have an affair, but Xiao Zhuo disagreed. The young woman couldn't resist her, so she left some eyeliner near the teahouse and left alone.
The next day, Uncle Fu came again and said that Zang Haisheng had returned to Longyang City. The matter was settled and he would take Xiaozhuo away.
Luo Kai was a little confused: "How to deal with it?"
Uncle Fu sighed: "Longyang County has always been ruled by three major forces. One is the county government under the jurisdiction of the city lord, the other is the farmer force represented by Jiuyuan Farm Village, and the representative of the business group is Blackstone Heavy Industry.
, now there is a high probability that the Dragon Shark Pirates will station troops in Longyang County, which will break the original balance of Longyang County. The higher the level, the more they need to compromise. The forces involved this time are too huge, and they will be affected by one move.
