Zhenguan three years.
The blue sky was bright and the sun was shining high. On an official road sixty miles away from Chang 'an, a few horses were slowly advancing.
"Damn it, this damn weather.”
The leader of the group was a muscular man with a strong back and a strong waist. He pulled down his robe a few times and cursed. Sweat dripped down the dark skin of the muscular man.
What the hell, there was no one nearby.
The brawny man raised his hand to wipe his sweat. He silently cursed the weather eight hundred times in his heart before looking at the prey hanging behind him with satisfaction.
En, this trip was not in vain!
As they walked, the burly man raised his hand and waved. The person behind him hurriedly rode forward."Father, why are you calling me?”
"Brat, can't you see that your father is about to die from the heat?”
When the burly man heard this, his eyes widened like a pair of copper bells. He raised his hand and slapped his son's head. The young man, who looked 70% like the burly man, did not dare to dodge and obediently took the beating.
"Hurry up and take a look. Is there a place to drink water nearby? If you're slow, I'll break your legs!!”
"Here! This is the child." The young man was so frightened that he shrunk his neck. He whipped the horse's buttocks and urged it to run.
"You guys, hurry up and don't let the prey fall. When we return to Chang 'an, I will reward you handsomely!!”
On the other hand, the young man who had been taught a lesson by his father was riding on a horse and walking on the official road, checking if there were any houses along the way.
Suddenly, a small wooden house by the side of the official road attracted the young man's attention. The young man spurred his horse forward and looked down. He saw that the door of the wooden house was tightly shut. There was a sign outside the wooden door. There were a few words on it, but he did not recognize them.
The window was open, and there was a young man with delicate features leaning against the window, reading a book.
The young man pulled in the reins and stopped obediently."Young Langjun, is it possible to drink water here?”
The young man who was reading by the window raised his head when he heard this. A trace of curiosity flashed across his eyes. This person actually had short hair!!
"Naturally, you can drink water."
Li Chen, who was working hard to study traditional Chinese characters, raised his head when he heard someone speak. He glanced at the burly young man riding on the horse and replied.
After getting a satisfactory answer, the young man cupped his fists at Li Chen, pulled the reins, and turned around.
"What a fine horse." Watching the other party leave, Li Chen was very envious. In the Great Tang, a good horse could not be bought without ten strings of money. Ten strings of money, even if it weighed forty catties!!
Riding a good horse on the streets was like driving a bright car in the future.
"Damn it, I never thought about learning traditional Chinese characters before.”Li Chen placed the book full of crooked Chinese characters on the table in distress. He rubbed his face with his hands to move his facial muscles.
"Father, there is a small house in front of us.”The young man quickly rode back to his father's side.
"Let's go!"
The burly man's eyes lit up when he heard that. He was about to die from the heat. He just wanted to find a place to rest and drink some water before returning to Chang 'an.
"Drive!"
A few horses galloped on the official road, raising a large cloud of dust.
"Then, Langjun, quickly bring me some water.”
Soon, the few of them got off the official road and arrived outside the wooden house near the official road. The burly man who led the way jumped off the horse and shouted loudly. He even wiped the sweat on his forehead with his hand. To be precise, it was muddy water.
Li Chen, who was troubled by the difficulty of learning traditional Chinese characters, looked up and saw the young man from before returning. There were a few people following him. One of them had a strong back and a stocky waist. He was actually a little more burly than the burly young man, and his voice was very loud. It was definitely loud.
After putting down the book he had just picked up, Li Chen looked at the burly man and said,"We have mineral water, iced red tea, and green tea. Which one do you want?”
“.......”
Outside the wooden house, the burly man and the others were stunned by Li Chen's words. The burly man took two steps forward and asked through the wall,"Langjun, what is mineral water and what is green tea? And that iced red tea."
A string of words that had never been passed before appeared, making the burly man confused. He could not understand the meaning of these words.
Li Chen moved his body slightly to the side and bent down to take out a few bottles of water from the box at the side."The pure white one is mineral water, the red one is iced red tea, and the green one is green tea. The names and colors are different, but they can all be used to quench one's thirst.”
Li Chen realized that these people did not seem to have the intention of listening to his introduction, especially the burly man with a lot of dust on his beard. His eyes were as wide as a bull's as he stared at the bottle of mineral water in front of him. As for the iced red tea and green tea, he completely ignored them.
"Be good..." The burly man frowned and stared at the small bottle of Wahaha mineral water. His expression changed again and again.
After a while, the burly man stood up and asked,"Langjun, what is this? Why was it so clear? Could it be natural glass?"
Coloured glaze was also glass in ancient times. However, the glass at this time was all mottled, and there was no pure white glass.
"This is a plastic bottle, not glass.”Su Yu shook his head."Everyone, mineral water costs 20 copper coins per bottle, iced red tea costs 30 copper coins, and black tea costs 30 copper coins. This is a small business and we don't pay on credit. How many bottles do you want?"”
"Thirty coins?!!" Behind the burly man, the young man who was also stunned exclaimed.
"Aiya!"
Unexpectedly, the brawny man, who was focused on studying the mineral water, was furious. He raised his thick hand and hit his son's head. The young man screamed and hugged his head as he squatted on the ground, not daring to make a sound. Clearly, he had experience.
"I'm still here, what are you shouting for? Who are you to speak here? Pay up!"
The burly man glared at him. The young man was like a little wife who had been wronged. He hurriedly took out a handful of copper coins from his pocket and placed them on the table. He took two steps back, worried that his father would beat him up again.
"Little Langjun, give me three bottles of water each!!”After teaching his son a lesson, the brawny man said to Su Yu.
