Chapter 85: Fifty Wen for a Shaobing, Li Wanji Wants to Hit Someone



Southern Xinjiang, Binhai County.

The county town is still deserted and depressed.

An exquisite carriage stopped in front of the tea house.

The servant sitting in the front got off the car and walked to a pancake stall in front of the tea house to buy a pancake.

[Five Big Baked Buns] At the Binhai County stall, the stall owner, Wu Da, made baked buns for the waiter with a smile on his face.

The servant took the pancake and gave him some silver, which almost scared him to death. One pancake cost fifty cents.

Think about it, the sesame cakes in Nanzhou City cost only five cents each. I cursed this shabby stall in my heart for no less than eighteen times.

The servant's mouth twitched, but he wanted to know something, so he endured the pain and gave the money.

The waiter asked, "Sir, could you tell me how to get to Jiang's house in Binhai County?"

"Why are you asking about this?" Wu Da looked displeased. People in Xincheng hated it most when outsiders asked about the affairs of the county magistrate's family.

Wu Da's expression made the servant a little confused, but he had a mission to do, so he could only continue to speak in a gentle tone.

"We are from the Furong Chamber of Commerce. Our boss has business dealings with Young Master Jiang, and we would like to discuss some business matters with him. Could you please show us the way?"

After saying that, the servant stuffed another ten coins into Wu Da's pocket.

You're a bastard who doesn't take the money even though you have it. He took the silver and only gave ten cents for asking for directions. In fact, Wu Da didn't think much of this small amount of money.

Moreover, the servant said it was a business matter, and Wu Da did not dare to delay the young master from making money, so he pointed out the way.

"Just go to the county government office. Just keep walking down the street and you'll see it."

"Thank you very much." The servant thanked him twice and returned to the carriage to report.

The carriage moved slowly towards the county government office.

In the car, Li Wanji heard the servant say that they were in the county government office, and she thought it was okay. Jiang Hai was the son of the county magistrate, so it was reasonable for him to live in the county government office.

Arriving at the gate of the county government office, Li Wanji and her maid got out of the car, and the servant went forward to explain the purpose of their visit to the gatekeeper.

Upon hearing that the person was looking for Jiang Hai, and that she was a great beauty, the bailiff did not delay and immediately went to report.

At this time, in the county government court, Wang Bing and Liu Shiye, the imitation Jiang family father and son, were sipping tea and busy with their own things.

Lao Liu has finished reading "Mei San" and left it on the desk. He is currently studying a new book.

As a qualified young master substitute, Wang Bing would practice calligraphy when he had nothing to do. At this moment, he was writing and drawing on a white fan.

Wang Bing frowned when he heard the yamen runners report that someone was looking for Jiang Hai. Young Master was rarely approached, and more often than not, people were looking for his martial arts skills.

After blowing on the words he had just written with a fan to make the ink dry faster, Wang Bing asked the yamen runner to invite the person in.

After a while.

The bailiff led Li Wanji to the county court.

Li Wanji felt very strange. It was not a court session, so why was he brought to the court?

But he didn't ask too many questions. After greeting Wang Bing, he was invited to take a seat.

"I'm Li Wanji from Furong Chamber of Commerce. I wonder if Young Master Jiang is here?" Li Wanji asked.

She had seen Jiang Hai before, so she naturally knew that Wang Bing was not Jiang Hai, although their figures were somewhat similar.

"What do you want from me?" Wang Bing responded without blushing or beating his heart. He was used to pretending to be Jiang Hai.

"..." Li Wanji opened his eyes and took another look. Something was wrong. The person who went to Furong Chamber of Commerce that day was not this person at all.

She couldn't figure out what had gone wrong. There was something strange about this matter.

After sorting out her messy thoughts, Li Wanji said calmly,

"Sir, please stop joking. Young Master Jiang and I have met in Nanzhou City. Please inform Young Master Jiang."

"Hey, you're such a rude person, I am. I have evidence, look."

After Wang Bing finished speaking, he picked up the fan with the words he had just written on it. There was a line of words written on it: [Aquaman Nicholas Jiang].

"See? That's my full name. Don't worry, I never lie."

When Wang Bing heard Liuzi say that the young master was at the dock, he revealed a new full name, which was very unique.

He thought he might need this name later, so he began to practice writing this so-called full name.

“…” Li Wanji couldn’t do it anymore.

This guy took a fan, wrote a few words, and then said it was evidence. He lied with his eyes open and said he never lied to anyone.

The scene froze instantly and I couldn't fast forward.

Wang Bing was calm and composed. He didn't care who the other person was. It would be better for him to leave quickly if he felt bored. Anyone who the young master didn't say he wanted to see would be sent away.

Finally, Li Wanji asked a few more tentative questions, trying to find some clues about Jiang Hai, and even flirted with Wang Bing to see if he would fall for it.

Unfortunately, it was completely useless. It wasn't that Wang Bing didn't fall for it, but he couldn't do anything wrong under the title of young master.

If there was one person Jiang Hai could trust the most, it would be Wang Bing. He knew how to do things very well, looked at what he should look at, remained calm and composed.

Seeing that this person couldn't make a breakthrough, Li Wanji saw Master Liu reading a book seriously in the lobby.

"Who is this?" he asked again tentatively.

"My dad." Wang Bing said expressionlessly.

"Greetings, His Excellency the County Master." Li Wanji saluted.

Master Liu raised his reading glasses to take a look and said, "Wow, she has a nice figure and looks good too."

However, the old man likes to watch anime recently. Although Li Wanji looks charming and seductive, she does not suit the old man's taste.

"Hmm." Master Liu hummed lightly and continued to study his new book.

Li Wanji's mouth twitched. There must be something wrong with the Binhai County Government. His self-confidence suffered a severe blow.

No man had ever seen her without his eyes lighting up. Even the Third Prince couldn't contain himself.

Wang Bing shook his [Sea King] fan and asked,

"I wonder what Mr. Li wants from me?"

“…”

Li Wanji wanted to hit someone, but this guy pretended to be Jiang Hai and was so confident.

But it's just a thought, and I still need to hold back and maintain proper etiquette.

"It's alright, then, Master Jiang, I'll take my leave."

"Goodbye, no... never mind, I'll just see you off." Wang Bing said.

Wang Bing sent the man to the gate of the county government office, turned around, clicked his tongue twice, and walked back to the court to continue practicing calligraphy.

Li Wanji was full of questions and confusion, and was still in a mess when she entered the carriage. What on earth went wrong?

What's going on with the Binhai County Government? Nothing has been normal since I entered Binhai County. The sesame cakes are extremely expensive.

Li Wanji's brain was almost short-circuited, but she still couldn't figure out what the problem was.

No, the gatekeeper's eyes were quite normal, staring at a certain part of her proudly for more than five seconds.

When the carriage was about to leave Binhai County, Li Wanji suddenly stopped the coachman.

"Go back and find an inn to stay."

How could she just leave like that? Who is she, Li Wanji? How could she go back without figuring out what happened?

Just as the carriage was heading back and passing by the county government office, two pigeons flew out of the office and headed towards the new city.

A drop of white pigeon droppings fell, and the fifty-cent pancake that the coachman, who had been gnawing on it for a long time but couldn't bear to finish, was suddenly given more toppings.
