After discovering that Lu Ping's drinking was very boring, Ying Xiao did not urge him to drink again. He drank very quickly, very fiercely, the jar of wine, other than the bowl that was poured for Lu Ping and a little that was spilled on the table, the rest was all poured into his stomach.
"Cool!" After letting out a thick burp, Ying Xiao rubbed his stomach and praised.
"Boss, do you have meat?" After the jar of wine had been emptied, he remembered that he wanted dishes to go with the wine.
The boss seemed to like this kind of generous customer, he quickly brought out a plate of braised meat and two plates of side dishes to go with the wine.
"What else does the customer want?" He asked expectantly.
"Wine." Ying Xiao shook the empty wine jar.
"Customer has a good capacity for liquor." The boss gave a thumbs up, beaming with joy as he moved the wine, intentionally or unintentionally glancing at Lu Ping who had only drunk a bowl of tea.
Another jar of wine was brought over, Ying Xiao took it and continued to drink, the attraction of side dishes to him was very normal, it was no wonder that he had forgotten.
But very quickly, the wine and meat were swept clean by him, but the other two plates of peanuts and broad beans were basically left untouched. At this time, Lu Ping had just finished a cup of tea, and then had another cup, compared to Ying Xiao, he was indeed very stingy.
"Done." After two jars of wine, Ying Xiao finally showed a satisfied expression.
"What about you?" He asked Lu Ping.
"Not bad." Lu Ping gave an indifferent expression.
"Pay the bill." Ying Xiao said.
"Me?" Lu Ping asked.
Ying Xiao nodded as if it was a matter of course.
Lu Ping did not care, and called the boss over. The boss did not expect that the final person to pay the bill would be this stingy guy, for his previous attitude, he inevitably felt a little embarrassed.
Lu Ping naturally did not care about this, after asking the price, he carefully counted the money. Compared to the goods on the street, the price of the wine and meat was simply not worth mentioning. Compared to the gold leaves that Lin Tianbiao gave him, it was a drop in the ocean.
However, Lu Ping only counted a small amount of money, which wasn't exactly a good amount.
The boss, who had been waiting for a while, couldn't help but curse in his heart again. He saw the gold leaf in the money bag and was a little surprised. He couldn't tell that this shabbily dressed youth was actually so rich. But looking at the way he counted the money, the boss felt sorry for the gold leaves.
Miser! This was the final impression that Lu Ping left on the boss. He had forgotten that the miser in his eyes was happily paying the bill for someone else.
After paying the bill, the two of them walked out of the pub together. Ying Xiao was carrying the big wooden chest. In Lu Ping's hands, there were a lot of miscellaneous items. The phonograph and thermostat were not all he had purchased. It was just that Ying Xiao had completely lost interest in the rest.
However, the things that the two of them bought were quite ostentatious. As he stood on the street, he attracted a lot of attention.
"It's almost time to go back, right?" Lu Ping said as he looked at the sky.
"I don't need anything else," Ying Xiao said.
Therefore, the two of them looked around and began to search for the newcomers from the North Campus. Soon, they found a few figures.
"Hey." Ying Xiao casually grabbed one of them. He didn't know the name, but he looked familiar. He turned his head and looked at Lu Ping to confirm with his eyes. After receiving Lu Ping's affirmation, he turned his head and asked, "When are we going back?"
"After buying the things, we'll go to the North Town entrance," that person answered. His eyes were filled with fear towards Ying Xiao.
"Oh." Ying Xiao nodded and let go of him. Then, he and Lu Ping went to the North Town entrance. This was the first time the newcomers left the mountain after joining the North Style Academy, so they were asked to come and go together.
The North Town entrance was not far from the market. Under the banner with the words "Pine Creek Town" fluttered in the wind, almost half of the newcomers had gathered. Senior Brother Ji stood in the middle of the road with a deadpan expression. From time to time, a newcomer would approach him and stuff something into his hands. He accepted it calmly, but never once did he show a smile.
Then, he saw Lu Ping and Ying Xiao walking towards him. He, who always had a solemn expression when facing the newcomers, actually shifted his gaze elsewhere.
With the two in front of him, Lu Ping was entangled in trouble. Senior Brother Ji didn't want to get himself involved. The other Ying Xiao. During the newcomer's trial, he had boldly taught a lesson to his senior brother. In Senior Brother Ji's eyes, he was a compassionate person. He didn't dare to provoke him. Ying Xiao taking the initiative to move to the five academies made him heave a sigh of relief.
Now that the two of them came together, Senior Brother Ji pretended not to see them. Although he was very curious about the two of them, one was carrying a huge suitcase while the other was carrying bags of all sizes.
The other newcomers didn't have much contact with these two. Seeing that the two of them were carrying strange goods, they were only curious and didn't ask about it. Ying Xiao stood at a random spot and lightly placed the suitcase on the ground. Lu Ping was even more impolite. After Ying Xiao placed the suitcase on the ground, he very naturally sat on the suitcase.
"Hey!" Ying Xiao's expression immediately tensed up.
"What?" Lu Ping didn't realize that the problem was with his butt. He was taking a bun from the thermostat box. Seeing Ying Xiao staring at him strangely, he asked curiously.
"Come down, who said you can sit." Ying Xiao shouted at Lu Ping.
"I can't sit?" Lu Ping stood up from the suitcase and looked back at the suitcase. Even though he sat on it, there didn't seem to be any changes!
"Stand still!" Ying Xiao scolded Lu Ping.
Lu Ping didn't care. While eating the bun, he looked at Ying Xiao gently and attentively brushed the place where Lu Ping was sitting.
"Could it be that this suitcase is your magic weapon?" Lu Ping couldn't help but guess.
"I said I can't tell you." Ying Xiao glared.
"Fine." Lu Ping could only shut up.
At this time, Lin Tianbiao also returned to the gathering point. From Senior Brother Ji to the newcomers, he warmly greeted them, which was another scene. Lin Tianbiao smiled, not neglecting anyone. His gaze naturally swept past Lu Ping and Ying Xiao. When he saw the suitcase beside Ying Xiao, he couldn't help but be startled.
This suitcase …
Ying Xiao was puzzled. He quickly greeted the people around him and walked towards Lu Ping and Ying Xiao.
The suitcase wasn't similar to the one he saw at Zhuang Yong's place. It was just that the form was similar, which made Lin Tianbiao pay attention to it. He smiled as he walked over, while sensing the suitcase. On Zhuang Yong's suitcase, with his keen and accurate perception, he was able to sense something, but this suitcase was so ordinary that he couldn't find anything.
"You two also bought a lot!" While speaking, Lin Tianbiao had already arrived in front of the two. The other newcomers avoided the two of them, but he was different, especially recently, he was getting closer to Lu Ping.
"This is the rest of the money." Lu Ping returned the money bag that Lin Tianbiao gave him.
"Just use it first, what's the hurry?" Lin Tianbiao said.
"It's all used up." Lu Ping said.
Lin Tianbiao knew Lu Ping's temperament, so he didn't insist. He took the money bag and looked at it. Not only did it not shrink, it had actually bulged a lot. When he opened it, the gold leaves didn't decrease, but there was a lot of loose silver. Obviously, one or two gold leaves had been exchanged.
"You bought a lot of things!" Lin Tianbiao put the money bag away and looked at Lu Ping's hand.
"It's a lot." Lu Ping said.
"What's this?" As he spoke, he casually and naturally kicked the box.
