The small tavern was still as lonely as it was in the beginning.
Rich people looked down on such a vulgar and dilapidated place, and poor people could not enter.
On the contrary, the entrance of Zhang Feng's shop became a paradise for wild children.
When they had nothing to do, these children would gather beside Zhang Feng and listen to his stories.
They knew that Zhang Feng loved cleanliness, and it was summer now. Before these children came, they would go to the river outside the city to wash themselves clean before coming.
They even wanted to peel off the layer of skin on their bodies.
Sometimes, when they caught some snakes in the wild, some wild game, or even a big turtle by the river, Zhang Feng would make a pot of tempting delicacies as if he was performing magic.
And they would be able to get a delicious meal and a few copper coins. Sometimes, when Zhang Feng was happy, he would even reward them with an ingot of silver.
Everyone did not fight for it and just sat on the ground to share the spoils.
The people of the Tang Dynasty were also strange.
Zhang Feng felt that it was very strange.
Even if one of them caught a long worm (snake) in a large group of people, if you gave him money, he would share it equally with his friends.
This kind of spirit made Zhang Feng very touched.
Sometimes, when there was no information that Zhang Feng needed for a day, they would climb up the treetops or squat at the city gate. They would stare at the city gate with their eyes wide open to see if there were any high-ranking officials, nobles, or prostitutes. The bearded man came.
Sometimes, when there was no information at all, these children would even squat in the corner and cry.
Perhaps this was a kind of spirit.
It was a spirit that modern society had forgotten.
However, Zhang Feng did not care.
No amount of gold could buy his happiness.
Anyway, he was not worried about making money. With the money that Lao Li and the others gave him, plus the money that he robbed Prince Zhen La last time, even if he spent it in eight lifetimes, he would not be able to spend it all.
Therefore, he was also very generous.
Business?
Business? My ass!
If it were not for Lao Li and the others, Lao Tzu would have closed the door and slept. Even if someone came because of his reputation, there was only one word.
Get lost!
Lao Tzu did not serve him!
However, for this group of children …
Now, Zhang Feng was more like the king of children. ,
These children surrounded Zhang Feng and relied on him for food. Zhang Feng knew this, but he didn't care.
If he could help one person, he would help one person.
It was too boring!
Most importantly, it was too boring.
"Brother!"
"Big Brother Zhang Feng! I have good news! "
Just as Zhang Feng was half-awake from his daydream, a sturdy young man hurriedly ran up to him.
Seeing that Zhang Feng had woken up with a start.
Gou 'zi was furious.
He threw the cattail leaf fan in his hand to a skinny monkey next to him, then went up and hammered him.
"Damn it! Can't you see that Brother Zhang Feng is sleeping? Were you chased away by a ghost? F * ck your mother! "
"I'll kill you!"
"Doggy!"
Zhang Feng rubbed his sleepy eyes and ordered Gou 'zi to leave. That young man seemed to know that he had been too rash. Although his clothes were already tattered from the beating and were now in tatters, he still licked his lips and apologized.
Zhang Feng was speechless.
Was he such a lowly person?
"Alright, tell me. What did you find out?"
"Brother, I heard the night watchman say that the emperor emeritus's birthday is on the day of the Dragon Boat Festival. Tubo's people seem to want to ask the emperor for help today!"
"Oh?"
Tubo finally couldn't take it anymore?
Zhang Feng curled the corner of his mouth slightly.
This group of monkeys was very smart.
They must have seen that the Tang Dynasty had signed a trade contract with Zhen La, so they couldn't take it anymore.
But, they couldn't take it anymore?
If the emperor wasn't an idiot, Tubo would definitely be cheated to death this time!
"Anything else?"
Zhang Feng asked with interest.
"No. By the way, I heard that Tuyuhun's people are also following behind. I don't know what they want to do."
Zhang Feng nodded.
Finally, he fumbled in his clothes and threw the most expensive silver ingot to Gou 'zi. He stared at him and said, "Go and apologize to Zhu Zi. Why did you hit him?"
"Today, you'll get half of your money as a punishment!"
"Oh!"
Gou 'zi pursed his lips and didn't care.
He waved his hand.
In an instant, eight half-grown children squatted on the ground and used the spindle on the ground to throw the silver ingot. Then, they divided the silver ingot bit by bit.
In the end, they couldn't divide the silver ingot and ran away with Gou 'zi.
They seemed to be going to the bank to exchange for copper coins.
Looking at Gou 'zi's new straw sandals and new linen clothes, Zhang Feng yawned and turned over to continue watching.
But a moment later, he was so hot that he rolled over and cursed. He went into the tavern while cursing.
"Damn kid, he's so greedy for money. Now that he has money, he doesn't care about Lao Tzu anymore?"
Although he was cursing, Zhang Feng didn't care at all. It was just ten taels of silver.
But, even if he didn't care, someone else did!
Just as Zhang Feng was about to close the door of the tavern, a smelly man like a black tower blocked the door with a plop. He asked in shock, "Shopkeeper, did you lose this silver ingot?"
As he spoke, the iron-towering man's hands trembled as he lifted a piece of flattened silver ingot and some scattered pieces of silver high up in front of Zhang Feng.
Zhang Feng scratched his head.
"Who are you?"
"Why do you have the silver ingot that I gave to Gou 'zi? If you dare to take it, believe it or not … "
Without waiting for him to finish.
The man like an iron tower knelt on the ground and asked in a choked voice, "Shopkeeper, did you really give this money to Zhu Zi?"
This was a simple Tang person!
Zhang Feng hurriedly tried to help the man up, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't help the man up.
Zhang Feng was so angry that he pointed at the man and shouted, "I gave it to him. What's wrong? Are you trying to extort money?"
"No, benefactor! I am Zhu Zi's father. Previously, Zhu Zi brought back money from time to time. I didn't know where he got it from … Today, I finally know. But the money today is too much. I don't deserve it! "
"Get lost! I gave this money to Zhu Zi and the others, not to you. If you don't want it, Lao Tzu won't give it to you. Give it back to Zhu Zi. Otherwise, Lao Tzu will report you to the authorities and put you in jail! "
After saying that, Zhang Feng didn't even bother to close the door. He dragged the recliner and walked into the kitchen, ignoring the man.
The man choked with sobs.
His whole body trembled as he kowtowed a few times. Then, he gently wiped the place where he just knelt, closed the door and left.
"Benefactor, thank you!"
