Yunhuai County is the most economically powerful county in Huaizhou. The city is fairly well-constructed, with two main roads running east-west and north-south. However, the streets are so intricate that if you are not familiar with them, you may get lost.
Tang Ji was always a road addict in his previous life. If he hadn't written down the road he had traveled, he might not have been able to find his way back to Baozipu before sunset.
At this time, he was standing at the street corner staring in the direction of the main road, and finally saw two figures running from a distance after a moment.
The man in shabby gray clothes fled in front, and the woman with a sallow complexion chased after him, shouting "heartless man, bastard" in his mouth, which aroused the interest of the people on the street, and they followed them one after another.
pace, want to see the excitement.
The man in gray clothes glanced at Tang Ji and saw him pointing to the alley in front of him, speeding up his pace and running in. After passing through the bun shop, his eyes flashed slightly, his feet slipped, and he fell to the ground.
The woman soon caught up with her, her face full of anger, she pointed at the man in gray and cried: "Run, why don't you run away? You heartless man, when I gave birth to your daughter, you said you were in high school
Then he came back to pick me up. Unexpectedly, you failed the provincial examination, but you were attracted by a rich lady. I took my children to find you, but you said you didn't know us, so why are you coming back now? "
The man in gray adjusted his condition and immediately entered the role, showing a painful look: "My dear, I was wrong, I know I was wrong, please forgive me, forgive me, okay?"
After saying that, he didn't forget to reach out and grab the other person's trouser legs.
"Forgive you, how do you want me to forgive you?" The woman took a step back and shook him off.
The voices of the two became louder and louder, and soon they attracted the people, who were watching the show and talking about it.
"What kind of man is he who abandons his wife and children?"
"That's right, since you have left mother and daughter behind, why are you coming back now? I'm afraid it's not that the rich lady doesn't want you!"
"Hey, I think we still have to give a man some face, no matter what he does that is worse than a beast."
"You want to give this kind of man face? I think he should be dragged into a pig pen or a sinking pond!"
"Yes, don't talk about Shen Tang, just light his sky lanterns!"
"..."
Seeing more and more people watching, the man in gray knew that he had completed his mission, and quickly winked at the woman, indicating that she could leave, but the latter ignored him and continued to cry, as if she was really abandoned.
poor woman.
This made the man in gray clothes even more nervous. When he heard the people shouting that he should be drowned in the pond, sweat broke out on his head. In desperation, he suddenly had an idea and rushed to the woman's feet and hugged her.
Legs, pinch hard.
The woman finally recalled that they were acting, wiped her tears, and asked in a low voice: "Then will you be good to me in the future and make up for all the debt you owe me and my daughter?"
"Yes, I will, dear girl, if I abandon you again, I will be struck by lightning and die!" The man in gray followed her words.
Hearing this, the people's emotions were aroused and they rushed to speak out to stop him.
"Sister, you can't believe this bitch!"
"Yes, he has abandoned you before, and he may do so again in the future."
"There is no such thing as a good thing in a man. God, please accept him as soon as possible!"
"..."
But the woman seemed not to have heard their shouts. She knelt down and helped the man in gray up, and said with concern: "Are you okay? Let's go home first!"
The two of them walked toward the street, but were stopped by another woman in the crowd: "Sister, please listen to everyone's advice. This man is absolutely untrustworthy. Don't let him fool you like he did a few years ago."
!”
The woman who was supporting the man in gray changed her face slightly, and whispered: "This is our couple's matter, so I won't worry about you, just get out of the way."
Everyone looked at the two people leaving and suddenly felt like they had been tricked.
"What is this? Do you think we are monkeys?"
"If I had known it would end like this, I shouldn't have sympathized with that woman."
"What? It's obviously that man who is so good at talking sweet words."
"It's boring. Let's go. I haven't had breakfast yet. Let's go home for dinner!"
"..."
Just as the crowd dispersed, "Actor No. 3" standing outside the steamed stuffed bun shop started his performance, holding a copper plate in his hand and screaming loudly: "I won two copper coins, so I can eat a steamed bun for free, haha."
Ha ha!"
In an instant, the people who had planned to leave stopped one after another and focused their attention on the bun shop.
"Is it a good thing to eat steamed buns without spending any money?" A strong man in the crowd stepped forward.
Others soon gathered outside the bun shop. The man who had not had breakfast walked up and asked: "Shopkeeper, what does it mean to eat buns for free?"
At this moment, Zheng Daqiang realized Tang Ji's intention of asking him to do those things before. He laughed innocently, pointed at the wooden board and explained: "This is a limited-time event launched by our store. In order to give back to new and old customers, we will wrap these in oil paper.
Put some copper coins in a good bun, and the maximum is ten coins!"
Hearing this, everyone suddenly realized that the man standing at the front of the counter took out a few copper coins from his pocket and asked: "Do the winning coins for vegetarian buns and meat buns both get the same?"
Zheng Daqiang shook his head twice and added: "The vegetarian buns have one, two and five coins respectively, and the meat buns have an additional ten coins!"
"Okay, let's take one each, a vegetarian one and a meat one!" The man counted out six copper coins and handed them to the other party.
After taking it, Zheng Daqiang opened the bun steamer wrapped in oil paper and said, "Sir, here, you choose one."
The man took a bun from each of the two steamers, and after removing the oil paper from the plain bun, a copper plate instantly fell to the ground. His eyes suddenly lit up, and he quickly opened the oil paper from the meat bun, but there was nothing in it.
"Hahaha, you are out of luck. Shopkeeper, give me two coins too!" The man standing behind squeezed out and handed over six copper coins as well.
Soon, after the man opened the two buns, he found two more copper coins in his hand. Although he didn't win the big prize, he was still better than the person in front. He proudly held his head high, took a bite of the bun and chewed it twice.
Finally, he said in surprise: "Okay, these buns taste good, even better than the ones at Old Man Chen's in the alley, eh? Why didn't I find a bun shop here before? The shopkeeper owns it. I will come here often in the future!"
"
"Okay, thank you!" Zheng Daqiang smiled so hard that he couldn't close his mouth. He didn't expect that with such a simple method, his bun shop would become famous. He would have to thank that young man later!
In this way, many people who stayed were eager to try and took out their wallets to buy. Some people took out one copper plate or two copper plates, while many people got nothing and could only sigh and say that they were unlucky.
At this moment, a man who bought two meat buns in a row slammed the counter and said angrily: "I think you are obviously lying. Didn't you say there was ten cents in the meat buns? There were so many people just now
No one showed up even when I bought it, I think it’s just a gimmick!”
Hearing this, Zheng Daqiang suddenly became nervous. Just when he didn't know how to answer, Tang Ji, who was wearing dark cloth, squeezed out from the crowd, handed over four copper coins, and said with a smile: "Shopkeeper, here's a meat bun.
