In the twelfth lunar month of winter, there is heavy snow and ice.
The entire Grand Canal was frozen into a glacier, and all cargo ships heading south were trapped in a small town called Jiangyun.
Bafang Inn, as the best place to stay in Jiangyun Town, is now overcrowded and it is difficult to find a room.
In Room No. 1 of Tianzi, a young man of eighteen or nineteen years old, dressed in white fur, sat in front of the stove in a daze.
"This is time travel? What's going on?"
The young man's name is Li Qi. He was originally a yellow-robed cavalryman in the new era. During a meal delivery, an accident occurred. When he woke up, he found that he had traveled to the Great Xia Dynasty that had no record in history...
Master!
To be precise, he was a young master in trouble. On the first day he came here, he even grabbed food from beggars...
It is true that the young master in distress is worse than a dog. He relies on his dog to eat, drink, and relieve himself.
In order to live a decent life, he threw his only valuable jade pendant into a pawn shop, exchanged it for a little money, and stayed at the Bafang Inn.
If he were alone, Li Qi felt that he would be able to survive this winter, but there were two mouths around him.
Thinking about it, he couldn't help but look at the black-bearded man lying on the bed, and the little girl sitting in front of the Eight Immortals table, happily licking melon seeds.
Can you believe that these two people are actually Li Qi's servants?
A big man is his personal bodyguard named Zhang Chuang.
That girl is his maid, named Xiaoman.
One of these two people is silent, the other is a great foodie!
If I hadn't been unfamiliar with the place, I might have run away alone long ago.
These two guys are really a burden, a burden!
Originally, time travel is just about time travel. The male protagonists in other novels are all able to fuse their memories, but luckily for him, half of his memories were fused!
Half, can you believe it?
In other words, he only remembered some general things, but could not remember other things at all.
He only roughly remembered that he was fleeing and taking a boat to go south, as if he was going to join some relatives.
The memory in my mind is unclear, I can't even remember my parents' names.
This so-called young master's identity is completely useless. Not only does he have to rely on himself for everything, but he also has to support two losers...
"Master, why do you look at me strangely?"
The maid Xiaoman interrupted Li Qi's thoughts and carefully put the remaining melon seeds on the table into her purse as if to guard against thieves.
Seeing this move, Li Qi's face turned dark.
What does this girl mean? Are you afraid that this young master will steal your melon seeds?
"What time is it now?" Li Qi sighed.
Xiaoman thought for a moment and said, "It should be Youshi."
Before I knew it, another day passed, and it was such a rough day...
"Please tell Zhang Weiwei to get up and get ready to have dinner."
When he heard about eating, Xiaoman's eyes lit up: "Okay, young master!"
Touching the money on his body, Li Qi knew that after tonight's meal, tomorrow's rent money would be gone.
It's freezing weather now, and I don't know if there is any place to stay outside.
Yesterday I heard that there seems to be a mountain temple nearby. If that doesn't work, I'll have to go there and have a look.
He came down from the room to the hall and found a table to sit down. Xiao Man stared at Li Qi with a pitiful expression: "Master, can you eat meat today?"
"Eat, eat." Li Qi said weakly.
"Thank you, Master!"
As he spoke, Xiaoman called the waiter from the store over and ordered a plate of beef and some rice.
"Zhang Wewei, how long do you think it will take for the canal to pass?" Li Qi asked.
"March." Zhang Chuang gave the exact time with a precious word.
"Then do you know any big towns nearby?"
"Jincheng."
"How far is Jincheng from here?"
"I don't know."
"What are the specialties of Jincheng? Is there a market?"
"I don't know."
Li Qi gave up, which really fulfilled the old saying, it is better to rely on yourself than to rely on others.
After scanning the hall, Li Qi noticed a fat man with a wide waist and fat body not far away. He was dressed in rich clothes and should be quite wealthy.
How about using a condom to get close?
Maybe then people will be happy and reward me with a few taels of silver, and maybe tomorrow's rent will be paid.
But this is too spineless. You are still a young master after all. Even if you are in trouble, you should still have some character, right?
The thoughts are still lingering in my mind, but my body has already acted honestly.
"My dear friend, may I ask your name?"
Li Qi stood in front of the little fat man, clasped his fists, nodded and bowed.
The little fat man glanced at him doubtfully: "Who are you?"
"My surname is Li, and my name has the same character. It's..."
Before he could finish the introduction, there was a sudden noise at the door.
I saw a middle-aged man barging in with seven or eight big men.
He scanned the hall and quickly fixed his gaze on the fat man next to Li Qi.
"Tie up that fat man!"
After giving the order, several big men rushed over. The little fat man was startled and suddenly pulled Li Qi in front of him: "Don't come over here!"
Li Qi was a little confused. Those big men didn't care about him at all and rushed over aggressively.
Damn it, I was just passing by!
He knew that if those big men rushed over, even if they couldn't move him, they might endanger Chi Yu.
At this moment, he shouted: "Stop!"
The leading middle-aged man frowned: "Who are you?"
"Who are you?" Li Qi asked back.
"I am Hu Yingyuan of Hu's Trading Company in Sucheng."
"What do you want to do?"
"Of course it's a debt! This guy owes me a lot of money, and now it's past the agreed time for repayment."
Hearing this, Li Qi turned around and glanced at the little fat man hiding behind him, and saw this guy's fat face with an ugly smile.
"Brother, you have to help me. It's not that I won't pay back the money, it's just that I really don't have any money now..."
I have no money, how can I help you?
Li Qigang wanted to get out of the way, but he heard the little fat man add: "But I have two shipments of goods. I originally wanted to pay the debt in kind, but the other party didn't want it..."
"Hmph! Now that the canal is frozen, so many caravans cannot transport their goods out. I want the goods to be of no use!" The middle-aged man snorted coldly and ordered again: "Get him!"
Several big men did not hesitate this time and rushed over directly, seemingly not caring whether Li Qi would be accidentally injured.
Li Qi only saw one of the big men, and he swung his fist towards him.
At this moment, his so-called personal bodyguard and maid were holding bowls and eating in big mouthfuls?!
