Castle of Black Iron

Volume 47 Chapter 11

From the morning to Taoshan, I visited Taoshan for nearly four or five hours, but I just turned around a small corner of Taoshan. Taoshan occupies a vast area in Xuanyuan Hill, with picturesque scenery everywhere, streams, cliffs, and waterfalls. The stone carvings of poets, as well as the underground palace karst cave, which is known as one of the ten scenic spots in Taoshan, are all so varied. If you really want to visit Taoshan, it will take at least a week.

After going around the place where Yan Feiqing hanged and beat someone, it was already noon.

Seeing that the various restaurants and restaurants on the side of Taoxi at the foot of Taoshan Mountain had begun to become lively, Zhang Tie was satisfied, so he took his two daughters to find a good-looking restaurant by the side of Taoxi in Taoshan Mountain for lunch. Take a break by the way.

The poison in the eyes of Xiaoer who recruits customers at the gates of various restaurants in Xuanyuan Hill is famous in Taixia. These people are used to seeing all kinds of people in Xuanyuan Hill, ranging from princes and nobles to traffickers. The pawns, as well as the royal families of wealthy merchants from various sub-continents, strange people and strangers, etc., have already developed a pair of sharp eyes through experience.

Zhang Tie had just brought Bai Suxian and Yan Feiqing to the door of the house called Xiankeju, when the waiter saw three people, his eyes lit up, and without thinking about it, he tilted his head and yelled into the restaurant, Just like singing, "Three honored guests, one private room in Tianzihao..." After saying this, the waiter immediately smiled all over his face, nodded and bowed to Zhang Tie and the other two, and made a gesture of invitation, "Please, three." , please come inside, please come inside, the three of you are here, the shop is full of splendor, and you will definitely be satisfied..."

Seeing that Xiao Er was interesting, Zhang Tie laughed, flicked his finger, and a gold coin flew towards Xiao Er, "Your reward, let me lead the way..."

The little Ercha took the gold coins swiftly, the smile on his face became more eager, and the service became more enthusiastic.

It's lunch time now, and there are already many people in the restaurant, which is quite lively.

There is a courtyard in the restaurant, and there is a platform in the middle of the patio, and behind the platform is an echoing wall. An elegant woman is sitting on a stool, holding a bamboo qin in each hand, and is beating The strings of the dulcimer, and the joyful and melodious sound, emerge from the qin platform like spring water, which is fascinating.

The diners who gathered in the restaurant sat in a large circle around the patio, listening to the sound of the dulcimer while eating, and applauding from time to time, and from time to time, some guests even handed over some copper coins. The silver coins were thrown into the sink in front of the table as a reward for the performer.

Because the reward money is thrown into the box, it is a bit indecent, and it may affect the performance of the people on the stage, so it becomes thrown into the water tank, falling into the water silently, and it looks more elegant. After the performance, the store will count it again, or take a commission, and then take out the money in the sink to the artist. The money is the water money of the artist, and the water money is clean money. The whole Taixia lives on water money. There are tens of thousands of entertainers, and there are tens of thousands of them. Artists perform, and the audience rewards them. This can be regarded as a different kind of scenery in the restaurant of Taixia Hotel.

The three of them entered the restaurant. Under the leadership of the waiter, they went up the stairs from the corridor on the left side of the door, to the second floor, and entered an elegant private room.

The private room is separated from the outside by two folded wooden peach wood screens. The window at the back of the private room is facing Taoxi, while the window on the other side allows you to enjoy the performances of the artists downstairs.

"How do you three see this?"

"That's right, let's go here!" Zhang Tie wouldn't be too picky about these things. If it wasn't for Yan Feiqing and Bai Suxian, Zhang Tie wouldn't care if he was in the lobby below. It's clean and elegant.

It was decided to be here, and the three of them sat down at the table.

"I heard that the mandarin fish in Taoxi, Xuanyuan Hill is pretty good..." Bai Suxian said to Zhang Tie with a smile.

"Three, there is no mandarin fish to eat in the shop these few days. If you want to eat mandarin fish, you have to wait for two months..." Hearing Bai Suxian's words, Xiao Er immediately said with a smile on his face.

"Ah, why?"

"Guest officer, please take a look!" The shop clerk pointed to a painting hanging in the box and the couplets on both sides of the painting.

The scene in that painting is the scenery of Taoxi and Taoshan. In the clear stream, mandarin fish with a slightly fat stomach are swimming, and some mandarin fish are opening their mouths in the water, eating the water surface. The petals of the falling peach blossoms, and the little bird chirping on the peach tree, feeding, the bird in the chalky nest opened its mouth wide, the bird and the fish are vivid and vivid, this painting There is a pair of couplets on both sides.

"I advise you not to eat March fish, thousands of young fish are in your belly."

"Admonish the king not to hit three spring birds, the son waits for the mother to return in the nest."

"This is the rule set by the manager of the small shop. Most of the restaurants and restaurants in Taoshan are like this. Don't blame me, sir..." The waiter explained with a smile on his face, "In the past two days, except for the Taoxi mandarin fish In addition, the shop actually has a lot of specialty dishes and signature dishes, and the peach blossom cakes and peach blossom wine in the shop are also excellent, sure to satisfy you, my lord..."

"Okay, then you just watch the food being served!" Zhang Tie smiled, and he didn't make things difficult for Xiao Er, and he didn't need to order anything, just let Xiao Er serve the delicious food.

"It's estimated that there are too many dishes for the three of you to finish. It's a waste. How about a few signature seasonal dishes from the small shop for the three of you, and some refreshments?"

"Row!"

Xiao Er bowed and exited the room.

Zhang Tie looked again at the paintings and couplets hanging in the room, and suddenly said to Yan Feiqing and Bai Suxian with great emotion, "I only now know that the so-called strength of the Chinese and Taixia is not just There are many knights and outstanding military strength. The root of Taixia and the Chinese people's strength lies in the culture of the Chinese people. In other sub-continents, the rise and fall of various dynasties and races alternately. Every two or three hundred years is a new situation. Every time a dynasty and a wealthy family will flourish and decline, it is difficult to last, but from the catastrophe to the present, Taixia has become stronger and stronger. Why, because of all the civilizations and countries of the people, only the Chinese know what is Cherish blessings, what is the virtue of heaven, this is a powerful gene rooted in the cultural heritage of the Chinese people, with such a cultural heritage, it is difficult for the Chinese people to be strong!"

After hearing this, Yan Feiqing and Bai Suxian nodded.

After a while, the dishes were ready.

Zhang Tie, Bai Suxian and Yan Feiqing tasted the dishes in the store, chatted and enjoyed the performance below, feeling very relaxed and comfortable.

Just when the meal was halfway through, there was a sound of heavy footsteps in the corridor outside. It seemed that a group of people were walking outside. In the sound of those footsteps, there was a rough and loud voice, which was not standard He called out in Chinese, "What, if you spend less than 30 silver coins in the standard room upstairs, you have to charge 2 silver coins for the room fee. Why is it so expensive?"

Hearing this voice, Zhang Tie was shocked, the chopsticks in his hand stopped suddenly, and he forgot to move...

This voice, Zhang Tie will never forget, because the owner of this voice is the one-eyed dragon who once left the darkest and most terrifying impression on all the male animals in the seventh male middle school of Black Yan City—— Captain Colin. Among the animals in the seventh man, few of them lived in the shadow of this man at the beginning. Even Zhang Tie himself felt for a while that this one-eyed dragon might be one of the scariest people in the world.

If it wasn't for the fact that his body had recovered at this moment and his hearing was normal, Zhang Tie almost thought he was hallucinating.

Seeing that Zhang Tie stopped when he heard the voice, both Bai Suxian and Yan Feiqing turned their curious gazes to Zhang Tie, and both of them guessed that Zhang Tie might be familiar with the voice outside.

"Do you know people outside?" Yan Feiqing heard the sound transmission, and Zhang Tie nodded.

Yan Feiqing and Bai Suxian glanced at each other and stopped talking. Both of them were curious about the relationship between Zhang Tie and the people outside.

"Colin, it's a private room, not a standard room. I've told you many times, why do you keep getting confused!" Another helpless and lazy voice sounded. Zhang Tie was also familiar with this voice, and it belonged to Jerome. , compared to Captain Colin's half-familiar Chinese, Jerome's Chinese is much more authentic, "Okay, since there are no tables downstairs, let's use the private room upstairs..."

Jerome said the latter sentence to the waiter.

"Do we still have that much money? Who told us this morning that we need to save a little bit. It's great to eat Bawang's meal here, but I guess we can't bear the consequences..." Captain Colin murmured Speaking up, this sentence is no longer in Chinese, but in Siberian.

"Whoever said that we are going to eat the overlord's meal, save the province, but we can't wrong ourselves too much..." Jerome replied in Siberian, and while talking, several people entered the private room next to Zhang Tie and the others. "Anyway, if you run out of money, then ask Milton to apply for some activity funding..."

"But the old guy in Milton has seen our expressions getting more and more wrong these days. I think he may think we are liars, and he is thinking about how to deal with us and tear us apart!" Captain Colin continued to use muttered in Siberian.

"Can you show me your menu here?" Entering the private room next to him, Jerome ignored Captain Colin and said to the waiter in the store in Chinese.

After ordering a few dishes and the waiter left, Jerome's voice sounded again, saying in Siberian, "He just doubted, not confirmed, this is Taixia, Xuanyuan Hill, the city of ten thousand cities of the human race." The city, the capital of all nations, is a place where knights will be beheaded for killing people for no reason. No country or big man has extraterritoriality here. Milton dare not do anything to us. Besides, we can’t blame us for this. He has been here for more than three months, and he has a pile of documents, but he has not even seen the diplomats of the Resa Congregation and the country stationed in Xuanyuan Hill, let alone the diplomats of Taixia. Well, what can we do..."
