After the matter was said, the banquet was coming to an end soon.

Xiahou An suddenly sighed after drinking.

When Tao Qian saw this, he couldn't help asking: "Why did the nephew sigh?"

"Oh, it's rare to come to Xuzhou. I wanted to go to the city, but unfortunately I was not familiar with the place..." Xiahou An pretended to be sad.

Tao Qian thought it was something big, so he stroked his beard and smiled, "What's the difficulty?"

As he said that, he ordered the Diannong School Captain who was accompanying the banquet: "Yuanlong, I have difficulty in legs and feet, so you will accompany me on my behalf. All expenses will be recorded in my house."

As a subordinate, Chen Deng naturally bowed his hand.

"Thank you uncle."

Like a child who got the candy, Xiahou An was very happy and immediately bowed to Chen Deng: "In this way, Brother Lao Yuanlong will be there."

"Duchang, please be polite." Chen Deng stood up and gave a gift. Although he did not say a word at the banquet, he actually saw it all. He could get a good deal from Tao Qian. This young man had a very good way.

At the same time, I was a little wary of this seemingly innocent young man.

The banquet dispersed, and Xiahou An and Chen Deng left the mansion together.

When the figure walked away, Tao Qian coughed lightly, and instantly, two people walked out of the left and right sides, then saluted Tao Qian, and shouted respectfully: "Father."

It was Tao Qian's two sons, Tao Shang and Tao Ying.

Surprisingly, these two people have not entered the officialdom so far.

That is the so-called "white body".

Logically speaking, as the governor of the state, Tao Qian was no problem in calling the wind and rain in Xuzhou. Even if his two sons were as stupid as pigs, it would be difficult to arrange a single official position.

But Tao Qian did not introduce his two sons into the official career. It was not that Tao Qian didn't want to, but that he knew that his son was better than his father. After years of training, Tao Qian, who was aggravated by disappointment, knew that his two sons were not officials, but his career seemed to be glorious on the surface, but in fact, the waves were turbulent. If he was not careful, his body would be gone.

My two sons have a dull qualification, so how can they control these jackals, tigers and leopards in Xuzhou? So instead of doing this, it is better to let the two sons be a rich man safely so that the Tao family can be passed on.

However, it is a blessing to have a misfortune, and Tao Qian also gained a reputation for being virtuous in Xuzhou and won the support of the people.

Tao Qian asked about his two sons’ opinions on the matter.

The second son Tao Ying had been talking a lot and immediately said, "Father, this is a big deal. How can I hand it over to a child with a different surname?"

Tao Qian didn't want to do it, but there was no other way at that time. When he heard the second son's words, Tao Qian was unhappy and said angrily: "Would you please leave it?"

Without notice of the old father's displeasure at all, the second young master Tao even looked happy, and immediately responded with the situation, clasped his fists and said with a firm voice: "I'm willing to go for my father!"

Seeing that my brother had taken the initiative, the pottery merchant, as the eldest brother, was unwilling to fall behind, and also asked, "I am willing to go!"

The two brothers have always had the idea of ​​becoming officials, but they just don’t understand why their father refused to let him go.

"Brother, it's clear that I said first, why are you fighting with me?" Tao Ying was unhappy.

Tao Shang said, "This is not a question that you don't want to talk about first. The journey here is long and you have little experience. If there is any mistake, how should you explain to your father? It is more appropriate to be a brother."

Tao Qian didn't know what his two sons were thinking, but he would never allow his son to go there. If the court detained the two and gave them a false title, I would be controlled by others.

"What do you think of Xiahou An?" Tao Qian changed the topic and wanted to see his two sons' ability to recognize people.

Tao Ying showed disdain for this: "It's just a child who has not dried up."

The Tao merchant also agreed. Xiahou Antuo was just like that, and he dared to force his father. He was simply unaware of the greatness of the world. If he had been to go there, he would have been more than enough to succeed.

In terms of disappointing people, the two sons did not disappoint themselves... Tao Qian sighed in his heart. My life was magnificent. Why did he give birth to these two Qiu Bas when he was old? He despised others because of his age and appearance. Such talents are the stupidest!

Just imagine, how could a person who could make Wang Yun marry a daughter, highly valued by Dong Zhuo and Cao Cao, and then return to the emperor, and make Yuan Tan return in disgrace?

The disappointed old father waved his hand and stopped fighting and called Cao Bao.

The two brothers looked at each other.

Well, it fell on Cao Bao!

After leaving the governor's residence, Xiahou An politely declined the request to take the car and wandered around the city with Chen Deng.

As a guard, Xu Chu was naturally inseparable.

Walking on the flat and open roads in the city and watching the pedestrians coming and going from north to south and the surrounding houses, Xiahou An couldn't help but sigh that the big city is indeed grand.

Compared with his own small Duchang County, it is really far behind.

As we walked all the way to the market, the road here was a little narrow, but there were many people. The shouts of vendors were heard one after another, and it was very noisy. All kinds of goods were available, which made people dazzled.

Xiahou An wandered around casually. If he wanted something, he called the merchant to pack it and take it away. In less than an hour, Xu Chu was already carrying all kinds of items he bought in his hands.

Chen Deng saw it in his eyes, and although he didn't say anything, he shook his head repeatedly in his heart. A good man actually likes what a woman loves.

Not long after walking, the heads in front of him were shaking, and there was a burst of cheer from time to time.

With so many people watching, it must be a lively look!

Xiahou An quickly stepped forward, pulled open the spectator around him, and squeezed in skillfully. When he looked closely, he saw a bearded businessman wrapped in veil showing off his goods. It was a bird with two legs and hooked claws on the wooden branch. Its head was crowned about three inches, and it was a black yellow color. Its beak was as sharp as a hook. There was a round red spot on the cheeks slanted behind the eyes. The feathers were mainly white, and there was also a little gray feather. A pair of black eyes were particularly bright and full of spirituality.

Huang Huaxuan Feng!

With just one glance, Xiahou An recognized this species, also called the cockatiel.

But this physique seems to be much bigger than later generations.

Amid the audience's cheers, the bearded businessman was sagging and began to introduce: "Everyone, this is what I bought from the South Vietnamese country for a lot of money. It is called the Parrots. He has a gentle temperament and can speak out."

Hearing the bird speaks, the onlookers urged him: "Hurry, hurry, let it perform."

"I have never seen a talking bird in my life."

"Who isn't it? Man, please make it scream twice!"

“That’s it.”

The melon-eating crowd kept clamoring.

At this time, the bearded man who was proud of his praise at first felt a little embarrassed, and his face turned bitter: "Everyone, this may be difficult. Maybe it's because he is not suitable for the environment of Nanyue. The parrot has not spoken yet, so he is selling it at a low price."

I couldn't speak when I heard it, and the spectators were unhappy. Isn't this intention to cheat people?

So I started talking again.

"It seems like a lie!"

"I'll just say that no bird can speak human words."

"Oh, it's all gone."

"This method is OK to cheat my kid. I want to cheat me, haha, it's still far from it!"

After a while, the stall that was already crowded suddenly left.

Seeing that the crowd was leaving, Xiahou An was quite interested and stepped forward to tease the cockatiel and said, "Businessman, tell me the price."

The originally depressed bearded man heard someone asking the price, and he looked happy and asked quickly: "Young Master, do you want to buy it?"

Xiahou An nodded calmly.

The bearded man's eyes lit up, and he muttered a lot of sadness, and finally said, "I bought this parrot for five million yuan. In this way, I will sell you for two million yuan. How about it?"

"One million."

According to the principle of bargaining half, Xiahou An raised his index finger and made a bid calmly.

The bearded businessman was obviously in pain when he heard the price. He subconsciously wanted to bargain, but after glanced at it, he was afraid that Xiahou An would be unhappy, so he gritted his teeth and responded.

After the sale was settled here, Xiahou An called Chen Deng not far away and said with a smile: "Brother Yuanlong, when I came out, governor Tao said that he would pay for all the consumption, is this still a count?"

Chen Deng was speechless for a moment. All fools knew that Tao Qian was just a fake polite on the surface. You kid actually crawled along the snake, and your face was really thick-skinned.

"Natural numbers."

Chen Deng had no expression on his face, but fortunately one million was not much, so he wrote a note and called the market clerk who managed the market and asked him to withdraw the money.

Xiahouan, who bought the cockatiel, was in a good mood.

He lifted the half-open cage in the air with his left hand, and kept teasing the two fingers of his right hand up and down, and at the same time, he did not forget to whistle and communicate with him. He smiled and said, "Come on, call him dad."

This look of carelessness made Chen Deng behind him shake his head repeatedly.

This guy is eccentric in his behavior and his brain circuits are too clear, which makes people unable to see through!
