The two stood up and looked at the broken glass on the ground with distress.
"Get out of the way!"
Suddenly, an anxious voice sounded from behind them, and then, both Xiti and Xiti were pulled away.
The next second, boxes fell one after another, accompanied by a dull and crisp sound.
"Bang!"
"Wow!"
Two voices sounded intertwined.
All the boxes containing glass were here, but now they all fell down, and the glass ornaments or mirrors inside were all broken after falling out.
There were a few surviving boxes that had not been thrown open. Xiti and the others opened them with trembling hands, only to find that the contents inside had been broken or the mirrors were cracked.
This time, they really lost all their money.
Everyone who was in a sad mood did not see a figure quietly leaving a dark corner not far away.
Also missing was the thin thread that tripped up the first Western businessman.
…
Zhao Jin spent five days to arrange all the affairs in Yunzhou City, and then set out for Xiangquan.
He didn't bring many people with him, only Qin Heng and Seng Fan.
The news of Zhao Jin's coming to Xiangquan was deliberately not informed to the county magistrate of Xiangquan.
"Xiangquan is actually so prosperous." Qin Heng followed Zhao Jin with some emotion.
Seng Fan also looked surprised. "Looking at it like this, there is no need for Yunzhou City Commissioner."
As a county magistrate of Yunzhou County, Xiangquan is as prosperous as Yunzhou City, a city governed by the county.
"With a port here, there will be more merchants, and it will naturally be more lively." Zhao Jin explained.
"Sir, where should we go now?" Qin Heng raised his hand and put it in front of his forehead to block the sun.
Zhao Jin raised his head and glanced at the sky, then walked towards a nearby restaurant, "Let's have a meal first, and then go to the port to see it later."
Qin Heng and Seng Fan quickly followed Zhao Jin in.
"Do you want to be a top-notch guest or stay in a hotel?" the waiter greeted me warmly.
Especially when he saw that Zhao Jin was wearing a new brocade style, his smile became even brighter.
"Topping."
"Okay!" The waiter diligently led Zhao and Jin to their seats. "Here by the window, you can see the scenery outside. If you find it too noisy, you can close the window and it will be much quieter."
Zhao Jin turned his head and looked at the busy street outside, shook his head, "No need to turn it off."
"What would you like to eat, sir?"
Zhao Jin raised his chin and looked at Qin Heng and Seng Fan, "You two can order, I can do both."
Anyway, they are all cooked in water, so there is no difference.
Qin Heng and Seng Fan looked at each other and rubbed their hands together, excited.
After ordering, Zhao Jin called to the waiter who wanted to leave.
"Let me ask you something."
The waiter glanced at Zhao Jin a few times and said with a clear expression, "The guest officer must be a foreigner, right?"
"Well, nothing else, I just want to ask your county magistrate, how is it going?"
"This..." The waiter looked a little hesitant.
Zhao Jin took out a piece of silver from his arms and stuffed it into the waiter's hand, "If you really can't tell me, you don't have to tell me. We are new here and we just want to know who the county magistrate here is."
Qin Heng and Seng Fan, who were nearby, looked at their noses and minds, knowing that Zhao Jin was incidentally inspecting the performance of the Xiangquan County magistrate.
The waiter had never seen such a big silver ingot before, and his eyes immediately went straight!
He picked it up, put it in his mouth and bit it, with a smile that almost reached his ears.
"Actually, there is nothing that cannot be said."
Even so, the waiter lowered his head and approached Zhao Jin, lowering his voice.
"Our county magistrate's name is Yan Zheng."
"The county magistrate is very kind to us people. He is a rare good official! He understands everything clearly and never does anything to harm the common people."
"The only thing is," the waiter couldn't help but sigh, "I don't know what kind of ecstasy the county magistrate has been fed, but he pays special attention to the businessmen in the county town and provides them with many conveniences!"
Zhao Jin's heart moved, "The county magistrate attaches great importance to businessmen?"
"That's right!" The waiter couldn't help but slap his thigh, his voice was loud for a moment, and after he realized it, he quickly lowered his voice.
"Because of this matter, the county magistrate and the county magistrate are in a very unhappy situation!"
As he spoke, the waiter's voice became even lower, and he even looked around to make sure no one was paying attention, and then he said:
"The county magistrate's wife is not from our Zhao country!"
After the waiter said this, he looked around again, obviously very cautious.
Zhao Jin was a little surprised, the county magistrate's wife?
"So, the county magistrate has taken someone from another country as his wife?"
Only the head wife can bear the title of county magistrate's wife.
Upon hearing the news, Qin Heng and Seng Fan couldn't help but move their heads closer.
"Start and stop!" the waiter said mysteriously: "The county magistrate's wife is not from our neighboring country!"
"Westerners?" Zhao Jin blurted out.
The waiter waved his hand, "That shouldn't be the case. The Westerners in Xiangquan are all white, but the county magistrate's wife is very dark."
"Hiss!" Qin Heng took a breath, "Isn't that very ugly?"
He thought about the dark girl in his mind and felt that she didn't look good.
Zhao Jin raised his foot and kicked Qin Heng, "Everyone likes radish and green vegetables. What kind of man do you think you are when you comment on a girl's appearance like this?"
Zhao Jin used 70% to 80% of his strength in this kick. He was obviously dissatisfied with Qin Heng's statement just now.
Although he didn't say it in front of the person involved, Qin Heng's words were also very disrespectful.
Qin Heng knew he had said the wrong thing, so he reached out and touched his painful calf, and silently closed his mouth.
When the waiter heard what Zhao Jin said, he looked at Zhao Jin several times.
"What's wrong?" Zhao Jin asked in a funny tone after noticing the waiter's little movements.
The waiter scratched his head and chuckled, "I originally thought that the guest officer was coming to Xiangquan for business, but now it doesn't look like it."
Zhao Jin became interested and asked: "Then what do you think I do?"
Recalling Zhao Jin's words just now, the waiter thought for a while, "Young master who has read a lot of poetry and books."
As he said that, he shook his head and said, "But guest officers are not like those people..."
After a pause, the waiter lowered his head and looked at Zhao Jin before speaking out two words with difficulty, "thin."
"Hahaha!" Zhao Jin laughed a few times. He didn't expect that one day he would be said to be like a person who reads poetry and books.
The waiter scratched his head again and realized that he had said something wrong.
Zhao Jin asked about the previous matter, "If the county magistrate marries a wife who is not Han, will his family agree?"
Having been here for quite some time, Zhao Jin knew how much Zhao people valued this kind of thing.
"Well, of course I don't agree with that!"
The waiter lowered his voice again, "Because of this matter, the county magistrate has been criticized a lot."
