Chapter 0137 Misunderstanding
Qu Yunmie is not joking.
He was very serious about wanting to teach Xiao Rong how to fight.
After all, Xiao Rong was in poor health, but seeing a doctor and taking medicine could not make him recover. Xiao Rong repeatedly emphasized to Qu Yunmie that they didn't need to worry about him, and he would get better on his own over time. If he had to take his pulse and prescribe medicine, he would not refuse. He would drink whatever was prescribed, and he looked calm while drinking it, as if this was his way of reassuring others.
Medicines are poisonous to some extent. After experiencing a series of blows and shocks, Qu Yunmie probably understood that Xiao Rong was not lying to him and that ordinary treatment methods had no effect on him. So what else could he do? Originally, he didn't know the answer, but after Gao Xunzhi hinted at him, he knew it. …………
Practicing martial arts can not only strengthen the body, but also relieve stress. At least that's the case for Qu Yunmie. He feels that the time when he is most relaxed is when he comes here to torture the wooden stake.
As for whether Xiao Rong is willing to learn... How could he not want to? There are so many people in the world waiting in line for his guidance. ...
Qu Yunmie waited for Xiao Rong's reaction. After three breaths, Xiao Rong finally looked at him.
After reading it, he turned around and left mercilessly.
Qu Yunmie: “……!!”
It was dinner time, and the soldiers had dispersed and were looking for a place to eat in groups of three or five. Many people saw the king they admired most, hurrying to catch up with Xiao Situ.
Being far away, they couldn't hear what the two men were saying, but they saw that the king reached out to grab Xiao Situ's arm, and Xiao Situ shook him off and said something to him harshly.
Soldiers: ...Ah.
While holding their bowls of rice, they were still joking together.
Soldier A: "It's good to be educated. Even the king treats you with courtesy."
Soldier B: "I think the king is bewildered by his face. No gentleman has ever been treated like this before."
Soldier C: "Haha, Xiao Situ's temper is similar to that of my wife. She gets impatient after just a few words."
After the speech, the three of them looked at each other and then burst into laughter.
They were one of the most ordinary soldiers of the Zhenbei Army. They could not talk to the king or Xiao Situ on weekdays. Teasing the big shots was one of their entertainment activities. After teasing, they continued to look for a place to eat. Therefore, no one noticed that they had accidentally discovered the truth. …
The conversation between the two people over there was actually like this.
Qu Yunmie: "Why are you leaving right after you got here? Are you afraid of getting tired? Don't worry, I know you are different from those peasants, I won't let you get tired."
Xiao Rong: “…”
Hearing Qu Yunmie's caring words, Xiao Rong shook off his hand: "I'm going to eat, you practice on your own!!"
Qu Yunmie: "..."*
A quarter of an hour later, Xiao Rong was sitting in the largest restaurant on Baibao Street, eating the cold dish that the waiter had just brought with an indifferent look on his face.
Qu Yunmie did not stay in the military camp, but sat silently opposite him.
This restaurant was newly opened this month. The owner is not from Chenliu, but a royal relative with the same surname He.
Someone investigated and found out that this royal relative was a very distant cousin of the young emperor, even more distant than He Tingzhi. His grandfather was a distant cousin of the founding emperor He Kui. Because he had the surname He, he was granted the title of Marquis of a county. Logically speaking, with so many emperors coming and going, he should have become a commoner long ago, but who can blame their family members for living so long? His grandfather died only ten years ago, and his father is still alive, so he still has the title of xx prince.
This also indirectly shows how ill-fated the royal family was.
In short, the threat posed by this kind of royal relative is basically zero, and this person should also be aware of his embarrassing identity, so he concealed his identity and only let servants come to do things.
He spent a lot of money to buy the lease from the five shopkeepers, and later sent people to the government to negotiate with them. Finally, they reached an agreement that he would use his own money to rebuild the house. Although the house did not belong to him, as long as he could pay the fixed commercial tax, the house would belong to him for the next ten years. As for ten years later, everything would be settled, and I believe the law would be perfect. At that time, it would depend on whether this man had the ability to keep the store.
Now that Chenliu's housing prices have risen to this level, many people are shocked and think that this should be the limit and will not continue to rise. But there are also smart people who know that this is just the beginning. Can the royal capital and the capital be on the same level? Chenliu has now reached the level of the royal capital at most, but it is far from the real capital.
Therefore, this boss named He had a really good vision. He built a unique big restaurant in the most prosperous city and the most prosperous area. Not to mention the next few hundred years, at least in the next few decades, this will be a golden hen that lays golden eggs every day. If Xiao Rong hadn't known that he shouldn't compete with the people for benefits, he would have wanted to kick this boss out and do it himself.
But no, he couldn't just take advantage of everything he saw and bring it to his own side. This wasn't a game, and he wasn't really a miser. To be fair, his standard of living was already the best in the entire north of the Huai River. It wasn't him who was short of money, but the treasury that swallowed up countless gold. So checks and balances, regulation, that was what he should do. ...
After the cold dishes were served, the hot dishes were soon served. Xiao Rong spent a piece of gold and specifically asked for the best private room. Naturally, the people in the restaurant served him closely. The waiter served the dishes non-stop and had basically no time to do anything else. After the last dish was finally served, the waiter did not leave, but continued to stand here, waiting for Xiao Rong's instructions.
It was also at this time that he looked at the person opposite Xiao Rong in confusion.
This private room was decorated very grandly. There were floor-standing vases and porcelain lanterns in the corners. There was also a long couch against the wall, a set of tables and chairs for meeting guests, and a square table for dining that only took up half of the room. He and Qu Yunmie sat on each side.
After Xiao Rong came in, he ordered ten dishes and a pot of tea, but he asked the waiter to put everything on his side, and the person opposite him had only air in front of him.
There was originally another set of bowls and chopsticks, but Xiao Rong took a look over there and asked him to take away the bowls and chopsticks as well.
Qu Yunmie: “…………”
He didn't dare to get angry with Xiao Rong, but when he found that the boy kept looking at him, he didn't want to give him a good look: "What are you looking at? Why don't you get out?"
