Chapter 20 I'm Not Interested in Money

"Hahaha, this Zhu Bajie is so stupid. He has become a monk with Tang Sanzang and learned Buddhist scriptures. He still wants to marry someone else's girl. How shameless!"

In the teahouse, Jiu'er covered her mouth and started laughing.

The guests sitting nearby started talking, and then looked at the man in dark cloth and urged: "Hey, that scholar, keep talking!"

The corner of Tang Ji's mouth twitched, he raised his head and looked around. Unexpectedly, he was surrounded by people. Looking at the stand, the old storyteller was staring at him angrily. He hurriedly took the wine and stood up: "The time is not up.

It’s early, it’s time to go home and eat!”

"No, I just heard the wonderful part, what happens after the pig sperm is harvested?" a man exclaimed.

Another person added: "What time are we going to eat? It's only now. Let me tell you a story first. After that, I'll treat you!"

"Yes, yes!" More and more people shouted asking him to stay.

Tang Ji completely pretended that he had not heard what everyone said, paid the waiter 20 cents, took the wine and ran out.

At this time, a young man in white who was sitting behind them hurriedly followed them out.

"What the hell is this? We just ran away after arousing our interest. Hey, old man, do you know the story of seeking scriptures from the Western Heaven? Then the scholar talked about subduing the pig spirit and continued. There is no shortage of rewards!" Tang Ji, who was originally sitting there, said

The middle-aged man in front looked at the old storyteller on the stage.

The old man rubbed his head in confusion, not understanding what the other party was saying at all. He chuckled and continued: "Let's continue telling the next story of Erzhuzi and Cuihua!"

"Don't listen, don't listen. I'm tired of hearing your nonsense stories. It's boring. Let's go. I'll come back another day with Sun Monkey's story!" The young scholar sitting in the first row waved his hand, stood up and walked out.

go.

Immediately, the remaining people also left.

"Hey, guest, please don't leave!" The old storyteller wanted to stop the guest, but he ignored him at all.

The obese man who was standing at the counter came out and looked at the people leaving. Thinking that many people had not paid their bills, he clenched his fists tightly and said angrily: "Damn it, you dare to damage my place, Aaron,

Take two people to deal with that kid!"

"Yes!" The strong man standing by the kitchen opened the curtain and walked to the backyard.

...

On the bustling street, Jiu'er held Tang Ji's sleeve. Since just now, her impression of Tang Ji has changed drastically. She used to think that he was a tough-talking, lecherous scoundrel, but now that she thinks about it, he is obviously a

He is a handsome young man who is smart and capable, cooks delicious food, and can make money. The most important thing is that he can also tell stories.

Men who can tell stories are great!

No rebuttal accepted!

Jiu'er winked playfully and asked, "Master Tang, what happened next? Zhu Bajie was subdued, and what happened next?"

Tang Ji was amused by her girl-obsessed look, as if he had unknowingly figured out how to get along with the little girl. He coughed lightly and was about to continue talking to her, but was frightened by a hand stretched out from behind.

One jump.

Jiu'er thought someone was coming to kill him again, so he quickly pinched the arm, pressed down with his backhand, and captured the opponent.

"It hurts, it hurts, let go!" The young man in white grinned in pain.

The two guards following him took out the sabers they carried, and one of them, a man with darker skin, said in a deep voice: "Let go of my young master!"

Tang Ji took a breath, held Jiu'er's arm, and motioned for her to let go.

Li Yu raised his arm again and shook it twice, complaining: "Young lady, you are so cruel!"

Jiu'er crossed his arms over his chest and snorted coldly.

Tang Ji raised his eyes. Although the man in front of him was only dressed in white, the sapphire bun tied behind his head and the exquisite white jade pendant worn around his waist looked valuable. He had clear eyebrows and delicate facial features, but his earlobes were slightly big.

"Is there something wrong, sir?" he asked.

Li Yu giggled twice, waved to the guard to put his hands away, and cupped his hands and said: "I just heard the young master tell the story of seeking Buddhist scriptures from the West in the teahouse. I...I am deeply interested in the young master, and I hope you can tell me the rest of the story."

Tang Ji rolled his eyes, and after a long time, this guy was actually following him. He couldn't help but feel a chill, he stretched out his hand and rubbed his arm, and said bluntly: "Sorry, I'm in a hurry to go back to cook. If there's a chance, next time

If you encounter anything, I will tell you to the young master."

Hearing this, the dark-skinned man stepped forward and shouted: "Bold, do you know who the person in front of you is? He..."

"Song Xiao, stand down!" Li Yu scolded.

Then, he stepped forward, took out dozens of copper coins from his arms and stuffed them into Tang Ji's hands: "Tell me, I haven't heard such a wonderful story for a long time!"

Tang Ji put the coins back into Li Yu's hand and raised the corner of his mouth: "Sorry, I'm not interested in money!"

After saying that, he took the wine and continued walking towards the street.

"Not interested in money..." Li Yu stood there and muttered twice, and suddenly remembered what he heard from the person at the next table last time he was drinking in a restaurant. Looking at Tang Ji's back, he added: "That's money."

Not enough!"

Suddenly, he raised his foot again and chased after him: "Master, Master!"

Before Tang Ji took a few steps, he turned around anxiously: "I told you, I care about money..."

Halfway through his words, he saw the other party hand over a ten-tael silver ingot, swallowed his saliva, and said with a smile: "Actually, I am still a little bit interested in money."

Li Yu stuffed the money into his arms and said reassuringly: "As long as you are interested, that's fine!"

If I can’t finish listening to the story, I won’t be able to sleep well tonight!

Tang Ji wiped the silver with his sleeve, put it to his mouth and bit it. After confirming that there was no problem, he put it into his sleeve with a smile.

If he knew that money was so easy to make, he wouldn't be a bookkeeper!

"Master, what's the story behind?" Li Yu saw that Tang Ji was in a daze, so he stretched out his hand and waved it in front of him.

Tang Ji came back to his senses, raised his brows slightly, and said, "Let's talk while walking!"

"Okay!" Li Yu quickly followed.

"Later, Master Tang and his disciples went all the way west and passed a place called Huangfeng Cave..."

.......

A few people walked all the way outside Linxi Lane. Tang Ji's story only talked about Sun Wukong fighting against the White Bone Demon three times. He raised his eyes to look at the sky, cupped his hands and said: "Master Li, it's getting late now. I'll leave the rest of the story for later.

I'll tell you next time, I live in the alley, you can come find me after the hour every day!"

The story disappeared halfway through. Li Yu still felt a little itchy in his heart, but he didn't want to take up the other person's rest time. After thinking about it, he returned the greeting: "Okay, then I'll come back tomorrow."

Watching Li Yu leave with his guards, Jiu'er turned around happily and said with a smile: "Mr. Tang, you are so awesome!"

The storyteller in the teahouse could only get a few copper coins as a reward in a day, but he made ten taels of silver in this small moment. That was ten taels, and he could buy a lot and eat a lot!

Tang Ji stood up proudly like a big goose. It turned out that it felt so good to conquer the little girl!

"Okay, let's go quickly, I even brought you some candied haws of sugar!" After stopping for a while, he walked towards the alley.

When Jiuer heard Tanghulu, he hurriedly quickened his pace, but found several unkind figures coming out of the alley in front of him. He immediately protected Tang Ji behind him and clenched his hands in a fighting posture.

"Boy, if you dare to ruin our store's business, you will pay the price today. Come on!" Aaron waved his hand after saying this.

Seeing this, the younger brother behind him rushed out.

Just when Tang Ji was worried about whether Jiu'er could handle so many, a figure flashed past him and rushed over quickly.

"Let's see who dares to act wild in Linxi Lane!"
