In the early morning, the golden rooster crowed.

Wearing a light-colored skirt, she took off the door bolt, pushed open the two thin wooden doors, carried a bucket of clear water across the threshold, and walked to the black plaque with three golden words "Rongliguan".

The warm sunshine splashed on the face that was only a light face, and it looked beautiful.

She turned around, scooped up a spoonful of clear water in a bucket with a long wooden spoon, and gently sprinkled it under the sign, before the threshold. This was what Bai Xiucai taught her, saying that it was a mysterious Feng Shui that could make wealth come continuously, which was very auspicious. As the shopkeeper, she did not ask for money, but since Bai Xiucai was talking seriously, she did it with a smile.

She rolled up her sleeves and sprinkled water, and she was graceful, and she was as beautiful as half-old Xu's mother.

The white clothes sitting behind the counter smiled faintly when they saw this scene.

Then the mysterious Feng Shui was not a lie to her, but if it was just a person from the Qimen who did this, it would be just a little more auspicious. But there was more auspiciousness, so why not?

Furthermore, good looking is good.

She noticed his gaze and narrowed her eyes slightly.

Bai Xiucai immediately lowered his head and flipped through the account book on the table.

Alas, let alone, this mysterious Feng Shui may be really useful.

He raised the corners of his lips slightly, dipped the light yellow wolf-haired brush into some freshly ground ink, and wrote "Quanshen, August 20" on the top of the new page of the account book. He paused his pen slightly, thought for a while, and wrote the words "Gengchen Day".

In other words, the True Dragon Dynasty three hundred years ago did not use the current December Gregorian calendar, but used a calendar called the "Sixty Zhou Chronicles of the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches". This calendar originated from the observation of celestial phenomena, matching the ten heavenly stems and the twelve earthly branches in sequence, forming sixty basic units. A cycle of one week means sixty units, which is called Yijiazi. The basic method of recording the day is also written as the "Sin Chou Month of Gengxu Year" in the form of "Bing Yin Day" in the year of Gengxu Year". The length of the month of this dynasty is not fixed, and it is determined by the movement of the sun. It is a very real dragon-like diary method. One hundred and thirty years ago, the Great Dream Dynasty unified the world. In order to facilitate the management of the empire, the Great Dream Emperor promoted the December Gregorian calendar originated from the ancient sage empire. Although the December Gregorian calendar also originated from the observation of the sun, the number of months, month, day, hour, hour, minute, second in its calendar is fixed.

After the arrogant dream, because the conversion between the two calendars was really difficult, fewer and fewer people used the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches in the Sixty Zhou Chronicles, and this calendar gradually disappeared and fell silent. However, it is still common to see it in many ancient books and secret scripts that exist today.

And Bai Xiucai was also lucky enough to learn something.

The waiter yawning raised his foot and stepped over the threshold, walked into the restaurant from the open courtyard door: "It's so good."

Bai Xiucai smiled at him, "Good morning."

The waiter scratched his chest, stepped to the tent, and skillfully threw the gray rag on his shoulder: "Have you eaten?"

"There are two big white steamed buns in the kitchen. The shopkeeper just steamed this morning." Bai Xiucai nodded and glanced at the empty courtyard gate. "Where are the people in the hall?"

"Hey, I'm still snoring." The waiter waved his hand, glanced at the shopkeeper outside the door, and whispered in front of the account, "After you left last night, they kept betting until ugly."

Bai Xiucai smiled helplessly. Just like other people in the city, the guys in Hongli Pavilion would play cards and gambling in their spare time in their spare time. However, although they were enjoyable, they sometimes forgot about that time. He glanced at her at the door and whispered: "Who won in the end?"

"I went back to the house to sleep last night. When I left, Zuo Paotang led the way and won two cents of silver."

"Zuo Paotang is still amazing."

"That's it." The waiter shrugged and yawned. "Whether it was a leaf show, a dice, a cricket fight or a rooster, I never saw him lose. To be honest, I think it would be a bit of a waste of talent to let him make a runner in our place."

"Waiter, who are you talking about being useless?"

A clear female voice rang behind her, but she was so scared that she shivered.

The waiter turned around in a hurry and looked at the mature beauty who was walking slowly with an empty wooden barrel.

"The shopkeeper! What kind of genius is useless," Xiao Er rolled his eyes and said quickly, "Hi! I mean I will eat big white steamed buns in the morning, and some genius is useless, hahahahahaha."

"Oh? There is actually some rice bran in the kitchen. You can cook porridge and eat it."

"well."

The waiter who wanted to suck his big mouth had to lower his head and respond, and without blinking his eyes, he moved towards the kitchen step by step.

Seeing his discouraged appearance, the shopkeeper put down the wooden barrel, gently waved the palm fan, covered his face and smiled: "Oh, I remembered that the rice bran was used to feed the chicken this morning. You should just put it in, 'a slim use'."

The waiter's eyes suddenly shone, and he quickly said the "Thank you, the shopkeeper!" several times, then ran into the kitchen, picked up a big white steamed bun from the steamer, and didn't care whether it was hot or not, so he quickly stuffed it into his mouth, as if he was afraid that the shopkeeper would regret it.

Bai Xiucai, who was watching the waiter, looked like he couldn't help laughing, but when he saw the shopkeeper put down the bucket, pulled out a seat, and sat face to face, he immediately suppressed his smile with guilt.

The shopkeeper put his arms casually on the table, closed the slightly yellowed account book, squinted his eyes, looked directly at his pupils, and his voice was light: "Did you bet with them again last night?"

Bai Xiucai was panicked and immediately wanted to deny it.

Although there is no clear rule for gambling or making profits in this vast and prosperous country, it is not privately prohibited. Whether it is the small gambling stalls on the street or the large gambling houses with carved beams and painted buildings, as long as you are willing to pay taxes to the local government on time, it will ensure that your business will be prosperous. In a sense, this is in line with the extravagant national style of the Yonghua country - after all, what else in this world is more passionate than spending a lot of money?

However, in this Hongli Pavilion, the number one signboard of Pingshui County, the yamen did not have the final say, but the shopkeeper had the final say.

Unfortunately, the shopkeeper didn't like it very much. He heard from the big-tongued storyteller that when the shopkeeper and the late emperor traveled around the world, they were caught by the Jinyiwei because they were doing righteousness in a gambling house. Although the Jinyiwei may have been with them for a long time, the owner of the gambling house seemed to have known the news that Jinyiwei was coming, but he did not remind them. However, after all, he was the Jinyiwei who was a saint, and he could not rely on the gambling house owner who was just the common people - but this was how the shopkeeper and the gambling house Liangzi formed.

Although the shopkeeper is not so arrogant that he is not allowed to play the Ye Zi show, the wages of the guys are all sent from her. If two or three coins are deducted, who can I ask for advice?

Bai Xiucai swallowed his saliva and looked at her meaningful eyes, but he didn't dare to lie.

“Yes.”

The shopkeeper raised his lips slightly: "Is it a loss, I won?"

"I'm just having fun if I don't lose or win or not."

"Oh?" She turned her face, looked at his guilty expression, and said to herself: "Is it really that there is no loss or no win or because she spent all her money in that 'Yanyuan' and she had no spare money?"

Bai Xiucai was silent.

Seeing that he was silent, the shopkeeper burst into laughter, shook his head gently, took out a few shining pieces of silver from the money bag at his waist and placed it on the account book.

He suddenly felt puzzled: "Shopkeeper, you are this."

"Autumn is coming soon. The shop will have a day off in two days. You can go and add some clothes." She smiled and narrowed her eyes, glanced at the white long gown that was no longer white or was rubbed off when washing clothes. "This single piece on you should change it."

Bai Xiucai was stunned for a moment and hurriedly thanked.

She tilted her head slightly and just smiled.

The shopkeeper stood up, put the chair back in place, and gently brushed his dress, "I'm going to call Xiaoli up. If they get up in the hall later, remember to scold them for me."

"Oh, OK."

Bai Xiucai nodded and responded. After watching the shopkeeper walk up the stairs, he picked up the pieces of broken silver and put them in a very shriveled bag of money.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the shopkeeper left, he sneaked out his four heads from the front door of the backyard.

These four heads are big, small, long and short, and rarely the same - except for the same dark circles.

Bai Xiucai felt panic again and couldn't help but hold the money bag on his waist tightly.

Fortunately, those four people just happened.

Seeing that the shopkeeper went up the stairs, they walked into the store one by one and yawned at the Bai Xiucai - they were going to say "early", but as soon as they opened their mouths, they became a round yawn.

Bai Xiucai nodded with laughter and cry, and said 'good morning' to the four people. Then he turned his face and looked at Zuo Paotang: "Paotang, how many purses did you last night?"

Zuo Paotang yawned and stretched out three fingers proudly.

The big kitchen next to him scratched his head in dissatisfaction, "His grandma, why do you always have such good luck in gambling? You even draw nine cards for three decks, are you cheating?"

"You, you! How can you question my character? If you lose, you will lose! Be convinced!"

"Oh no, I'm not convinced! I don't believe it, I can't win you even if I bet, so I'll continue tonight!"

The waiter who happened to walk out of the kitchen was gnawing the steamed buns and said vaguely: "Ah? I'll come again tonight. Are you four really not going to sleep?"

The four of them shook their heads in an orderly manner.

Bai Xiucai sighed softly, "Everyone, I don't know if you have heard of it. A small gambling is fun, a big gambling--"

"Dode, Bai Xiucai, don't. If you hadn't really lost your pocket last night, you would still owe me a penny!"

Bai Xiucai coughed twice, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Well, anyway, the shopkeeper has spoken, if you still bet-"

"Everyone is early!"

The tender and energetic female voice suddenly made everyone feel energetic.

Looking up, the little bitch with braids jumped and jumped, so cute.

"It's early! Brother Bai!"

She walked down the stairs and smiled sweetly at him.

"Year, Xiaoli." He also replied with a gentle smile, "Did you sleep well last night?"

"That's OK! Xiaoli was dreaming at night!"

Everyone leaned over curiously, "Oh? What kind of beautiful dream?"

"Well, I can't remember it specifically, but it seems that it was something that Xiaoli had grown up." Xiao Budian raised his head and raised his chest proudly, "Listen to me, I always look good in my dreams! It's even better than my aunt!"

Everyone laughed and quickly echoed, "That's natural." "Little Li is the best" "Little Li will definitely look better than those four beauties in the future."

Bai Xiucai smiled and agreed, and somehow the girl's appearance flashed through his head.

The beautiful girl who met him on a rainy night.

It has been almost a week, and I don’t know where she and Wang Duwei Rong are now.

"Yo, are you getting up?"

Before my thoughts were broken, a clear female voice came to my ears

The four of them shivered at the same time.

The guilty thief raised their heads and looked at her who was following Xiaoli with a slight smile on her face.

"The shopkeeper"

"Oh, everyone is wearing dark circles. What are you doing when you stare at me?" She waved her thin fan lightly, "If you don't go to eat steamed buns, you will start work on hunger in a while?"

"Hey, hey!"

The four of them immediately ran into the kitchen like foxes with their tails.

The shopkeeper walked down the stairs, glanced at the white scholar, touched Xiaoli's head, and looked at the little guy who was swallowing the steamed bun.

"Waiter, prepare to open the door to welcome guests."

"know!"

Pingshui County's number one golden sign, Hongli Pavilion, opened a shop from the Chen hour to the close of Xu hour, and there were few doors left.
Chapter completed!
