idle king

Chapter 41

"By the way, San'er, go to the carriage and find a few palm-sized thin wood pieces, and fix them on the sides of these tables in the lobby on the first floor. Then write numbers on them with a brush."

Ye Chu looked at the hall, and called out to San'er who was pulling the rope on the open space outside the building.

He remembered saying something casual to Carpenter Li at that time, but he didn't know if he had brought it over.

"Xiao Chan, go and send those couplets to the young master." Ye Chu called out again, but there was no reply for a long time, and then he looked at it in a blink of an eye, not only burst into laughter.

This little girl is holding a panda lantern that is several times bigger than her at the moment, and she is having a great time playing with it.

There's no way, who let him spoil little loli.

So Ye Chu shook his head helplessly, so he had no choice but to take the couplet himself.

After moving the stool, Ye Chu pasted one of the couplets at the entrance on the second floor.Of course, he only posted half of it, and the other half was naturally reserved for the guests who came to visit.

Then, Ye Chu went up to the second floor, and pasted couplets on the inner walls of every private room.And a reminder was written at the entrance of the corridor: Anyone who connects to the upper and lower lines will be free of charge.

As for the third floor, Ye Chu plans to temporarily close it to the public, and will only entertain some distinguished people.In the future, he plans to transform it into a leisure place for business talks.

It was easy to handle all this. When Ye Chu went downstairs, he happened to see San'er looking for him.

After "Master" San'er came over, he looked at the dozens of wood chips in his hand and asked, "I don't know what is the use of these?"

"Well, you can think of a simple way to mark each table with a number, so that there will be no chaos when there are too many guests in the future." Ye Yu originally planned to write the Arabic numerals on it, but after thinking about it, he was afraid that they would be in a hurry If you don’t understand right away, explain it, it’s not just explaining clearly all at once, it’s better to let him figure it out by himself.

"Then is it okay to mark 'one, two, three'?" San'er's mind also turned quickly, and Ye Chu just blurted out after he finished speaking.

"Well, you can do whatever you want." Ye You nodded, and then asked, "Have the lanterns been arranged?"

"It's all been arranged. Please go out and have a look, young master, to see if there is any room for improvement."

Then, Ye Chu walked out of the gate of Zuixiao Tower and stood on the steps to take a look.

In the area on the left hand side, three thumb-thick hemp ropes are as high as a person from the ground, and above the ropes, there are ordinary lanterns hanging every one step apart.And on top of these lanterns, there are more than a dozen lanterns of different shapes.

In the area on the right hand side is the fun game area.Among them, the Lucky Wheel is one of them.And behind the turntable, there are two desks.At that time, there will be some fun word games here for interested students to watch.

Now it's just a matter of changing the door plaque, and everything will be ready.Before coming here, Ye Chu had already sent someone to pick up the door plaque, but now almost two hours have passed, and there is still no sign of anyone.

At this time, Xiaochan suddenly pointed to the distance and exclaimed: "Master, look over there, there are many people with wooden sticks."

Hearing Xiaochan's exclamation, Ye Chu hurriedly looked in the direction she pointed, and his face became serious in an instant.

"Young master, go ahead and hide for a while, I'm afraid these people are not kind!" San'er also saw these people in front of him, so he urged anxiously.

"Hmph, what's the use of hiding in there, I want to see what these people want to do." Ye Chu was also a little flustered, but he was the boss of these people after all, so he pretended to be calm.

He believed that he had not offended anyone. Even if he had a small conflict with those talented people, he would not resort to such despicable revenge methods unless they wanted to ruin his reputation.And once this happens, they will basically have no chance of becoming officials.Today's imperial examination system in the Zhou Dynasty is also linked to a person's moral integrity.

After thinking about it, there is only one person who would do this, and that is Liu Zheng from Tianxianglou.

Seeing that his young master didn't listen to the persuasion, but at this time he was acting in a bookish way, San'er could only sigh helplessly, and stood in front of the stage with a few buddies, watching the group of people approaching gradually with a look of defense.

Just as Ye Chu was thinking for a moment, this group of people had already leaned forward, surrounded Ye Chu and others in front of the gate of Zuixiao Tower, waving the guys in their hands one by one, and looked at the few people in front of them teasingly.There were even one or two who whistled towards Xiao Chan.

Seeing this scene, Xiaochan hid behind Ye Chu with some fear, tightly clutching the young master's sleeve.Although San'er and the others were also afraid, none of them backed down, showing a posture of vowing to protect the young master to the death.

"Who are you? Why are you here?" Seeing that this group of people were just waiting around him, not talking or making any other movements. Instead, they all looked at the various lanterns next to them with interest. Ye You asked Shen Sheng asked.

"Are you that stupid scholar Ye You?" One of the leading young men held a thin wooden stick in his mouth, glanced at Ye You on the steps, and asked arrogantly.

"Since you know that I have a reputation as a scholar, you know that such behavior will be beheaded." Ye Chu was unmoved, and bluffed with full confidence.Anyway, he guessed that the other party knew very little about Da Zhou Law.

But there is one thing that he is really helpless, it seems that everyone in Jinling knows his previous reputation...

"Tsk tsk, everyone said that the young master of the Ye Mansion is an idiot. I didn't expect that he would open his mouth to tell lies. Hehe, I admire you." The leader said eccentrically.

"Hmph, go back and tell Liu Zheng that if he dares to be the first grader today, don't blame me for being the fifteenth grader in the future." Ye Chu squinted his eyes and snorted coldly.

"I tell you, my brother has been in this business for a long time, and I have never seen any kind of deceit! So, if you want to talk to me, I advise you not to waste your time." The leader saw Ye Chu's words at a glance. Can't help but sneer.

"However, the trouble will come to an end later, but we can also sit down and discuss business. Isn't it?" The leader said with a smile, "I heard what you said just now, and you want to trouble Liu... Zheng, hehe, get someone Eliminating disasters with money and people is our purpose, and we can also take on this job."

Heh, I still want to eat both ends, this is really playing myself for a fool.The corner of Ye Chu's mouth twitched slightly.

"Okay, my brother wants to have a good time in a while, so I won't talk nonsense with you." The leader waved his prestige, and then waved his hand, "Brothers, move quickly. Smash everything."

After a pause, he looked at Ye Chu contemptuously, and said sharply, "If anyone dares to stop you, treat them well. Old rules, don't kill anyone."

As soon as the words fell, the group of people below directly waved the wooden sticks in their hands and threw them at the lantern in front of them.

Ye Chu was really helpless, if he knew martial arts, he wouldn't be as helpless as he is now.Unfortunately, all this was in vain.

He was afraid that Liu Zheng would come to make trouble before, so he chose to come here in the middle of the night to arrange, but he still couldn't escape.

Of course, even if all this was ruined, he wouldn't be afraid, wouldn't it be a lantern riddle without lanterns?At most, the effect is inferior.

"Bad people, you are not allowed to destroy the lantern." At this moment, Xiao Chan suddenly ran down the steps while Ye Chu was not paying attention, stretched out her hand to block those people, and said with a blushing face.

Seeing Xiao Chan running down, Ye Tong was really shocked. These people were not good people. For the first time, his eyes were split and he shouted: "Who dares to touch Xiao Chan? I, Ye Tong, swear to kill your whole family! Don't believe me." Try it!"

Maybe Ye You's harshness scared them, or maybe he couldn't do anything to a cute little girl. Anyway, as soon as Ye You said these words, the few people in front of Xiaochan who had raised their wooden sticks were all stunned. in place.

"Humph, where did the yellow-haired girl come from? Let's go away." The leader also saw something was wrong, so he stepped forward and suddenly reached out to grab Xiaochan.Xiaochan seemed to be frightened and closed her eyes directly, but her body did not flinch at all.

At this time, Ye You also rushed down, just in front of the leader, and pulled Xiaochan into his arms.

And the leader, when he saw Ye Chu appearing, his expression darkened, and he threw a stick at Ye Chu's head.Although Ye Chu wanted to hide, his body's reaction was much slower than his brain's, so he could only take half a step back and block the back of his hand at the same time.

At the same time, he sighed secretly in his heart. It seemed that his arm was going to be useless.

"Master!" Behind him, San'er and others shouted in horror when they saw this scene.I wanted to save him, but I couldn't get close.

Just when the wooden stick was about to touch Ye Yu's arm, suddenly, a piercing sound rang out in everyone's ears.

At the same time, a huge door plaque rushed towards the leader's chest at high speed...
