Chapter 176 The Unexpected Guest
Zhuo Yun finished the fruit plate quickly and said while wiping his hands: "Don't exceed the time next time."
She said this not to complain or worry, but because the Yanye tribe had sent troops, she had to take people there as soon as possible, but Wen Yunxi did not come back, and she was worried about Pingxiba, so she could only let Shuba and the others go first. Then catch up later.
"Got it, be careful."
You never know what changes will happen before anything is over, so it’s always right to be cautious.
"Just take care of this place."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhuo Yun left the stall area and quickly disappeared from Wen Yunxi's eyes.
Wen Yunxi threw away the money bag in his hand and bought another cold tofu skin, without any intention of saving money for Zhuo Yun.
Speaking of which, as the big boss of Pingxiba, she owns thousands of acres of land. She seems to be very rich. In fact, these are all real estate and there are very few real liquid funds. Otherwise, she would not rely on selling her statues. Make money.
Compared to her, Su Qiao, who enjoys his share of the profits and benefits, is the richest person in Pingxiba.
"Hey, boss, come and try my grilled fish."
When Chef Liu saw everyone setting up a stall, he also set one up. He placed a flat iron plate on the oven, cut the fish and roasted it until golden, then sprinkled it with peppercorns and spices brought in from outside, and finally spread it with garlic. At the end, it tastes delicious.
As soon as he opened the grill, a long queue formed in front of the stall. At this time, when he saw Wen Yunxi passing by, he quickly handed her the grilled fish that had been prepared long ago.
Wen Yunxi took it with a smile, glanced at the wooden sign in front of the stall, picked up a small silver ingot and threw it into his money box, "No need to change the remaining money, help me bake two more."
Being greedy for the grilled fish in his hand, Wen Yunxi threw away the money and wanted to find a place to settle down, but as soon as he took a few steps, someone snatched the grilled fish away.
Lager looked at Wen Yunxi with a smile. Before she spoke, he quickly took a bite of the grilled fish, and then walked away quickly under Wen Yunxi's stunned eyes.
Chef Liu is good at craftsmanship but has a bad temper. It is very difficult to get extra food on weekdays. This time, in addition to the people outside the stall, many people in Pingxiba wanted to buy. Lager was also in the queue just now and was greedy for the aroma. He had to swallow hard, and when he saw Wen Yunxi taking a portion, he grabbed it.
Wen Yunxi looked at the empty palms, which still had the warmth of grilled fish. Although she felt a little unhappy, she still endured it. There was no need to behave like a patient.
The sun gradually rose, and ox carts and horse carriages kept driving towards Pingxiba. Seeing this, Su Qiao asked people to bring out herbal tea for people to take for free, and even put meat buns made with bean dregs and wheat flour next to it, which made everyone happy. Smiling so hard that one cannot see his teeth.
After the opening of Qingzhu Hospital, the free tofu pudding that people used to eat for free was cancelled, and only herbal tea was left. Unexpectedly, today there were several times more people than usual. Instead, everyone was allowed to eat meat buns mixed with wheat flour, which made some people who were thinking too much think about it. , thinking that Wen Yunxi was going to cause trouble again.
In fact, it's very simple. This is just Su Qiao's generosity to Wen Yunxi. He was sold by Wen Yunxi twice during the New Year. At that time, he had no way to deal with Wen Yunxi, so he could only bear it in his heart and start the new year. I have been looking for opportunities to get back together since then.
Spreading rumors about Wen Yunxi is one, and taking this opportunity to make Wen Yunxi spend money is the second. As for whether there is a third, it depends on Wen Yunxi's performance.
Wen Yunxi was calm about this. She didn't believe that the meat buns could make her bankrupt. They only scratched her itch and did not hurt her flesh.
"Xiao Sheng, come here."
Jiu Gu Nan was wandering around with his friends. When he heard this, his scalp tensed up and he hurriedly ran towards Wen Yunxi.
"Master, do you have any orders?" Jiu Gunan was a little afraid of Wen Yunxi. He stood in front of Wen Yunxi with his head lowered, for fear of upsetting her and plotting against him. After all, he was really hurt at that time. The pain from the knife can still be recalled now.
"Will Magistrate Xuan come over?" Wen Yunxi asked straight to the point without talking nonsense to him.
Xuan Gu Nan's heart beat faster, and he stuttered: "He took the servants to Li Yuan Village to catch the prisoners, and he won't be able to come back for a while."
"Oh, the timing is a coincidence."
It seems that even though Zhixian County sent his son here, he actually wanted to be an outsider so that neither party could be offended. He obeyed Sangfu's dispatch and asked his son to come to Pingxiba to work. This way, no matter which side wins in the end, their family will be affected. All extremely small.
Jiu Gunan didn't say much, but saw Wen Yunxi waving his hand and trotted back quickly.
He didn't understand what his father meant at first, but after Su Qiao pointed it out, he realized that he had become a part of the plan. Although he was unhappy that his father didn't tell him directly, he could understand it.
Xuan Gunan has a separate room in Pingxiba, but he still goes home every other day. In addition to bringing some food back, he just wants to tell his father about the situation here. Of course his father knows about this matter, and he also knows about Sang. Fu would definitely send someone to keep an eye on this place. In order not to offend Wen Yunxi when he asked, he also chose an excuse to go to the village.
Jiu Gunan's friends didn't laugh at him when they saw his appearance. After all, it was Wen Yunxi who was protected by the gods. It was too late to please her, so how could he dare to offend her.
Just as one of the young men was about to hand him the grilled fish, he heard a noise in the distance, and then someone shouted: "King Lin is here!"
Everyone was so shocked that they didn't care to continue queuing and ran over there quickly. But just after running a few steps, another voice came: "The clan leader is here too!"
There are more than 20 clan chiefs in Lanzhou, but the only clan chief near Black Rock City who can have such a big reaction is Sang Fu.
Even Wen Yunxi was shocked. She didn't expect Xuan Lin and Sang Fu to come in person, let alone that they would come together.
Have these two really formed an alliance? Wen Yunxi frowned more and more. If they really formed an alliance, it would be extremely detrimental to her, especially when Zhuo Yun left with his troops.
The few hands that Zhu Yun showed when she opened Qingzhu Hospital brought great security to Pingxiba and made people even more afraid of her. Wen Yunxi. No one is not afraid of the powerful archer, not to mention that Zhu Yun is still With extraordinary speed, if there were not hundreds of people guarding him day and night, he might not wake up that day.
But now that Zhuo Yun is not here, without such a shock, nothing will happen.
Just when Wen Yunxi was thinking this, an arrow shot through the air and nailed the door curtain of Xuan Lin's carriage, missing only half an inch from entering the carriage.
Manager Liu shouted: "How dare you! Who dares to assassinate the prince!"
Before he finished speaking, another arrow shot out, breaking the arrow just now, causing everyone to scream in fright.
"Ayun, stop, everyone who comes is a guest."
Wen Yunxi shouted quickly, opened his arms to block Xuan Lin's carriage, and used his body to stop the arrow.
There was a sound of smashing things from behind, but no more arrows were fired. Manager Liu breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the crisis was over.
