Chapter 262

Along the way, many people are quietly looking around these strange companions, secretly judging in their hearts, who is more worthy of contact, who is more difficult to deal with.

Whenever someone's eyes came to Shen Jianxin, he would smile and nod his head and greet people politely.

However, those snobbish businessmen often turn away with disdain and don't bother to exchange greetings with this nerd.

And the direction where people's eyes converge most is the people of Weiyuan escort agency who lead in front.

It's not because of how vigorous and eye-catching these escorts are, but there is a long legged woman with a beauty of at least 80 points in the middle of this group of big men, riding on a tall horse with heroic posture. It's hard not to be eye-catching.

The woman was 28 years old and in her prime of life. She was dressed in a smart, narrow sleeve, scarlet green jacket, long boots, a white fox skin cloak and a long bow. Her dress was worth a few hundred taels of silver.

It's said that the eye-catching woman is Chang meng'e, the famous woman of Weiyuan escort agency. This girl has been practicing martial arts since she was a child. She is very good at playing with a slingshot.

Chang meng'e can be regarded as a flower in the words of Beijing's good doers. Unfortunately, she has a lower birth background. If she was born in an official family and had more noble spirit, she might be able to comment on the reputation of Beijing's qunfangpu.

The journey was long and boring. Most of the men in the caravan would glance at Miss Chang meng'e from time to time as if they had nothing to do with it. Talk to relieve fatigue.

Although Chang meng'e is still waiting to be married, she has been with the escort for several times. It is estimated that the principal of Weiyuan escort agency is also very smart. She knows how to match men and women. She is not tired of work, so she is sent out.

Shen Jianxin didn't pay much attention to the valiant young lady Chang. Although he was riding on a horse, he was still half asleep and half awake. He seemed to be depressed and tired. In fact, he was hidden in Shenhua. He constantly absorbed the external sources of heaven and earth, breathed them out and exchanged them, Make yourself more harmonious with the world.

In contrast, Shen Jianxin, who was hanging at the end of the team, was really unknown, and naturally no one paid any attention to him.

Half a day later, as the evening approached, the sky began to darken.

The leader in front of us sent a message, ready to take a rest and leave after the night.

On both sides of the official road, there are restaurants and inns every half a mile to cater for these business travelers from the capital.

Originally, there was no such prosperity on both sides of the official road, because there were more merchants, naturally there was a market.

At present, this area is still covered by the capital, and public security is always good, so the caravan people are not wary.

As a result, the caravan of more than 100 people was divided into two teams and entered two adjacent inns.

Cui's caravans are numerous and powerful, monopolizing one inn, while the escort and scattered merchants go to another.

The dozens of people in the escort agency, together with the scattered merchants, rushed into the shop and immediately filled the empty lobby.

The guys in the shop yelled and ran fast back and forth.

The landlady is a plump old lady. Her smiling face is very cordial, but the foundation of her face is thick, and when she moves slightly, she falls down.

Shen Jianxin casually found a side seat and sat down without greeting anyone.

It was the oldest businessman among the scattered merchants who sat down at the table chosen by Shen Jianxin with a smile.

"Young man, is it OK for old man to squeeze a table with you?" The wrinkles on the old businessman's face are carved like knives and axes, giving people a sense of trust that has gone through many vicissitudes.

Shen Jianxin smiles and says, "it's OK."

After the old businessman sat down, he quietly moved the teacup in front of him half an inch forward.

Shen Jianxin didn't think much of other people's small actions, so he poured tea for the old man.

"Young man, where are you going?" The old businessman said with a smile.

"I want to see the frontier fortress." Shen Jianxin replied casually.

The old businessman nodded and asked carelessly, "what goods do you have with you?"

There is competition among businessmen everywhere. If they go to the border so far, if the goods they bring are the same as their own, it means that they have to compete.

So when the old businessman asked, all the scattered merchants around raised their ears and glanced at him.

Shen Jianxin shook his head, opened the bookcase on his side, showed it to the public, and said with a smile, "it's better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books. I don't have any goods with me. I just want to travel and learn more. "

"Ah? Then it's not worth your trip! " The old businessman said with regret.

Those scattered businessmen sitting around showed their disdainful eyes and looked at the little scholar like a fool.

"Is the old man old enough? Why not stay at home and have such a hard time as a businessman? " Shen Jianxin also asked casually.

The old businessman was slightly stunned. He was really 70 this year, but he was usually strong and looked like he was in his fifties. People who were not familiar with him didn't know how old he was.

"You have a good eye! ha-ha! To tell you the truth, I have three daughters who are still unmarried. I have to prepare a rich dowry for them. I won't be angry if I go to my mother-in-law's house in the future. "

"So it is! The old man has worked hard! " Shen Jianxin embraces boxing.

After living most of his life, he is still working hard for his children. The old businessman's behavior is worthy of respect. Maybe this is the life of all living beings. Every family has its own difficult classics.

The old businessman was a little sad by Shen Jianxin's gift. He could not help nodding his head and said, "I'm still a scholar. My three daughters have never thought about it like this. They are always noisy. They think that their old family is too thin. They are afraid that their dowry will be less in the future."

"I hope the old man can make a success of this time and earn more dowry to go back!" Shen Jianxin said with a smile.

"Ha ha! Thank you, little brother The old businessman also laughed at himself.

Next to him, a middle-aged businessman said, "look at you two chatting so speculatively. Don't you have three daughters, Lao Xing? Just marry him one! "

After that, the merchants of the four seats burst into laughter.

The old businessman, surnamed Xing, said with a smile: "my women are plain looking, but they are ambitious. They want to marry rich families. I'm afraid they will delay the little brother!"

The old man is very open-minded and is not afraid to make fun of his children.

Shen Jianxin also laughed: "where, where! If you are poor, you can't afford it! "

At this time, the lady with lingering charm walked to this table.

Seeing that Shen Jianxin, a young and outstanding young man, was quite different from the whole room of vendors, the landlady immediately sat down beside Shen Jianxin with a smile.

"Little brother, what would you like to eat?" The landlady felt that they were not close enough to each other, so she leaned forward.

Shen Jianxin said with a smile: "after chatting for a long time, my stomach has already growled. Madam, what's your special food here?"

The owner's wife glanced at him and said with a smile: "there are many characteristics in our shop! How about my sister taking you to the back kitchen to pick it out? "

In the face of the landlady's bright and dark coquettish, Shen Jianxin's face is not red and his heart is not hot. He just said with a smile, "don't bother, just have a bowl of spring noodles."

"Good! A bowl of spring noodles, do you want to add eggs or milk? "

"With milk?" Shen Jianxin and the businessmen around him were stunned at the same time, and they blurted out.

"Oh! Wrong, wrong! Add meat, add meat The landlady's face was so shy that she tried hard to wink.

All of a sudden, the four seats burst into laughter again!

Shen Jianxin repeatedly waved his hand and said with a smile: "plain, plain is good! I'm afraid I can't sleep if I eat too much at night. "

The boss's wife's face has been refined for a long time. Yingying said with a smile: "it's just right that I can't sleep! Long night, no sleep, sister can accompany you to talk

The boss lady's fiery words are irresistible. Shen Jianxin only knows how to giggle, but he says nothing.

The boss's wife saw that the young man's face was tender, so she didn't tease him any more. She shook her waist with a smile and went to the next table.

In fact, we all know that the wife may not really have a crush on the young man. It's just a way for others to solicit business and activate the atmosphere in the store.
