"Shopkeeper, check out!" As Zhao Laosan shouted, the shopkeeper's trotted over.

"Two guest officials, a total of thirty-five quotations!"

Zhao Laosan reached into his arms, took out a corner of silver and slapped it on the table, "Come change!"

The shopkeeper looked at him in surprise and pinched the silver and went to the counter. After weighing it with a small scale, he took out a cloth bag from under the counter, counted it several times, put more than ten cents into the drawer, and jogged over with the small cloth bag: "Customer, there is no silver in the store. This is 115 cents for you. They are all copper coins, not iron coins. If you don't believe it, you can take a look!"

"I've won! Liuzi carried the bag and left!"

Zhao Laosan waved his hand impatiently, stood up and went straight to the store door. Xu Liuzi picked up his wallet and followed him.

After the two of them left, Feng Yucheng stood up and greeted him, took out a corner of silver from his sleeve and placed it on the table, and walked behind them and stooped. The shopkeeper's shout came from behind: "Call!Call! Wait for you to make changes!"

Feng Yucheng arrived outside the gate and saw Zhao Laosan and Xu Liuzi heading towards the south end of the alley one after another. The Suqian Pier of the canal was in the south of the city. It seemed that the two of them did not plan to spend the night in the city, but wanted to leave the city and return to the ship when the sky was still early and the city gate was not closed.

The summer day is very long. Although it is the end of Shen's hour, the sky is still bright, and there are few pedestrians in the alley where the tavern is located. Because the two people in front laugh and gossip each other while walking, the walking speed is not fast. Feng Yucheng also slowed down and followed more than ten steps behind the two.

The narrow alley was not very long. Seeing that the two people in front of them turned to the right after leaving the alley, Feng Yucheng was afraid of losing someone, so he lifted up his cloth robe and accelerated his pace.

When he rushed to the entrance of the alley and turned to the right, he was about to move forward, Zhao Laosan and Xu Liuzi stood in front of him and looked at him coldly on the street a few steps away.

Feng Yucheng was stunned and was about to pretend to be a passerby, but Zhao Laosan and Xu Liuzi clamped him around and like friends fighting each other, he carried him into the alley just now. Since it was already time to eat, there were not many pedestrians on the street, and no one noticed the situation here at all. Moreover, even if someone saw it, he thought it was three familiar people who were playing and playing.

"You blind thief! I followed you when I saw my wealth revealing you? I will destroy your claws today! Liuzi! Press this guy's hand against the wall!"

As Zhao Lao San said, he took out a short blade with a scabbard from his arms. Xu Liuzi's wallet had long been tied to his waist. He pressed Feng Yucheng against the wall, pressed Feng Yucheng's legs with his two thick legs, and then spread Feng Yucheng's arms out and leaned against the wall with both hands, forming the shape of a crucifixion.

Although Feng Yucheng struggled desperately, he could not make it as hard as Xu Liuzi, who worked all year round. According to Zhao Laosan's opinion, he regarded him as a thief who steals things. Today I want to teach him a lesson.

Feng Yucheng saw Zhao Laosan pulling out the short blade with his right hand and stepping forward to cut it into his right hand. In desperation, Feng Yucheng shouted: "I am the official of the court, you two want to die! Xu Liuzi, think about your family!"

Hearing Feng Yucheng's shout, the two of them changed their faces suddenly. Xu Liuzi's strength suddenly relaxed. Zhao Laosan raised his short blade's right arm and stopped in the air, with a look of shock and doubt in his eyes.

"I am the imperial censor! If the official is killed, the emperor will order the government to search the whole city! Just now, the matter of you and I entering and leaving the tavern will be quickly discovered by the yamen runners. Because you and you have not covered your behavior, you will be asked by the police soon! Under Sanmu, can you two hold on and not reveal the truth? If you are plotting to kill the officials of the court, you will be punished for the serious crimes of the nine clans!"

Feng Yucheng's words completely defeated the two of them.

After hearing that Feng Yucheng was an official appointed by the court, Zhao Laosan thought that since he had provoked the official, he might be retaliated by Feng Yucheng if he let him go. It would be better to just take the matter with one knife, but Feng Yucheng's words hit the critical point.

When he was in the tavern, Zhao Laosan did not pay attention to Feng Yucheng, but when he was drunk and finally lowered his voice to explain to Xu Liuzi, he found that Feng Yucheng was obviously listening sideways. When he was paying the bill, Zhao Laosan saw Feng Yucheng looking at the silver on the table and the copper coins he had recovered. He immediately concluded that he must have talked about money and revealed his whiteness and was worried about Feng Yucheng, the thief, so he walked out of the tavern and greeted Xu Liuzi, which led to the scene just now.

Xu Liuzi let go of Feng Yucheng and retreated to Zhao Laosan, looking down at the ground with a panic expression. Zhao Laosan, who had already put the knife in his arms, looked as usual. He clasped his fists at Feng Yucheng and said, "This master, Caomin, think the master is a thief, and it is so offensive. I hope the master will not blame him! If the master is angry that I am rude, I will beat me hard and vent my anger, and then I will not owe each other. Master, what do you think?!"

Feng Yucheng reached out to smooth the wrinkles of his robe, and smiled and said, "It's not a big deal for those who don't know! This official is actually such an unknown person! It's just a misunderstanding!"

"Thank you for being generous! That Cao Min said goodbye!"

Zhao Laosan clasped his fists again and said, Xu Liuzi, who was standing beside him, was obviously relieved and followed Feng Yucheng with his fists, but he did not dare to speak.

"Let's wait!"

The two were about to turn around and leave, but Feng Yucheng shouted.

Looking at the smile on Feng Yucheng's face, Zhao Laosan was a little confused for a moment. This young official looked kind and although his eyes were sharp, he did not have any malice.

"You are called Zhao Laosan and his name is Xu Liuzi, right? If I have never guessed wrong, you two are Caoshu, right? Zhao Laosan, I ask you, you must reply truthfully. If I am satisfied, I will give you a future for you!"

Feng Yucheng held his hands on his back and looked at Zhao Laosan and spoke.

"The future? What is the future? The master has something to ask, and I will tell you the truth! It doesn't matter if the future is not good!"

Zhao Laosan was not moved by the big cake thrown by Feng Yucheng, but still politely said with a calm expression.

Feng Yucheng could not see Zhao Laosan's thoughts, so he reached into his arms and took out an exquisite red sandalwood sign and held it in his hand: "I am the imperial censor of the imperial guards! Whether you are the governor of the grain transportation or the general of the grain army, if you violate the laws and regulations of the court, I can submit the court to impeach him! Zhao Laosan, I ask you, as a grain manager, how much does the monthly food and salary?"

While Feng Yucheng put his waist card in his arms, Zhao Lao was also afraid on his three sides, while Xu Liuzi fell to the ground directly.

"If you want to go back to the master, I can withdraw one stone of white rice from the official office every month, but it will cost about seven dou every time!"

Zhao Laosan still did not kneel down, but just lowered his eyelids and refused to look at Feng Yucheng.

"If I and you are always in accordance with your status, and you will be able to pay one tael of silver every three years, and then you will be able to add it every three years, and your family will be in the government's house as servants. Compared with other servants in the month, will you both still be willing?"

Feng Yucheng continued to ask slowly.

The Feng family is also a large family in the Jingxiang area. Many of Feng Yucheng's ancestors also served as officials. The family wealth was very rich and his family business was quite good.

Since he knew his name, he could have let the two of them go and then asked the local government to capture them. However, Zhao Laosan's actions in the tavern made him very seriously, and he felt that he was very loyal and reliable. Instead of being a villain, it was better to do good deeds, and he did not have a few trustworthy servants around him.

Zhao Laosan and Xu Liuzi followed him to accompany him. His family could send him to his hometown in Xiangyang. It was very easy to arrange a few people for a large family. If two people were diligent and reliable, then if they were not useful to follow him in the future, they would still be sent to Xiangyang.

Feng Yucheng actually investigated the situation of the Cao army and knew that most of the Cao army and their relatives had a brief introduction in his memorial to the emperor.

For people of this era, being able to join the family to be a servant at Master Guan’s house is a great thing that is both glorious and decent and affordable. It is a good job that is hard to find even with a lantern. Feng Yucheng believes that after offering this condition, these two people will never refuse.

"What the master said is the truth?"

"There is no lie! After you two have sent the grain and returned, you can go to the Huaian Prefecture to inspect the Cao Censorate's Office to find this official, and then sign the documents. This official Feng Yucheng is the same!"

"The villain Zhao Laosan, Xu Liuzi has met Mr. Feng!"

"Very good! Get up and talk back!"

"Thank you, Master!"

"Zhao Laosan, will the grain fleet head north from Suqian Pier in time?"

"Reply to the master's words, the villain heard from the transport officer that several ships in the fleet were leaking, and it would take several days to repair it. It would probably take five or six days to set off!"

"What did you say in the tavern is Jiningzhou?"
