Chapter 64 - Chef's Operation
After walking down the street, Yin Xu's curiosity had passed and he became a little bored. Most of the items on the stall were small items that girls and children liked, and with the age of the Demon Lord s, they would definitely not be interested in.
There were people jeering in front of him, causing Yin Xu to hear cheers from the crowd, he could not help but squeeze in.
After pushing his way in, he found a man and a woman fighting. A young boy was holding a gong as he took money from them. He said pitifully, “Uncle, uncle, uncle, please give me some praise …”
Yin Xu only took a few glances at them and was able to tell that their skills were only slightly better than fancy martial arts. He did not know what sort of eyes these people had, but someone at that level was actually able to watch like they were watching a big show.
The little boy who was collecting money held onto the gong as he walked in front of Yin Xu. His eyes were bright, and his face had a hint of flattery.
He saw that Yin Xu's skin and flesh was tender, although he didn't know what the clothes were made of, but they were extremely beautiful, so he was sure to be the young master of a rich family.
The young masters of these wealthy families were the most generous. Sometimes, the reward would allow their family of three a month of delicious food.
“Big brother, alright. We haven't eaten for a day.” As he spoke, his eyes flashed with tears. He looked really pitiful.
Yin Xu looked down at him and easily saw that this little boy was acting pitiful. However, this family had already fallen to the point of performing on the street, they were definitely pitiful.
It was a pity that Demon Lord had never had sympathy before. He hugged his chest and said disdainfully: “You dare to come out and sell at such a level, what a disgrace!”
Teng Yu heard the exact words from behind. He stopped in his tracks, looked at the berating gazes of the crowd, and wisely took a few steps back.
Sure enough, in the next moment, everyone became furious and started attacking in groups.
“Why are you like this, child? Would it be easy for him to earn some money? “If you don't like her, then leave.”
“That's right, you must be a child who has never experienced hardships. Being rich is really amazing!”
“As expected, the hearts of rich people are full of dark thoughts. Let's not lower ourselves to him. Here, I think it's good enough.” He took out the coin from his pouch and counted out half of it and threw it into the boy's gong.
The rest of the people also took out their money. They were all throwing in a few coins, and were much more generous than before.
One had to know that most people only watched this kind of performance for fun. The ones who truly paid were usually only given one or two copper coins.
The little boy thanked them one by one, tears in his eyes. From time to time, he would glance at Yin Xu.
He squeezed through the crowd and complained to Teng Yu, “Foolish mortal, you're too gullible.”
Teng Yu tidied up his messy hair for him, “Most of the citizens have simple and honest natures, if you were just a beggar dressed in tattered clothes, they would at most look at you for a second, but you are clearly a rich master, so they naturally thought that you looked down on the poor, and condemned you for it.”
“Too much thinking!” Yin Xu rolled his eyes as he pulled Teng Yu and squeezed into the crowd that had more people and even louder cheers.
“Didn't you want to watch a vaudeville show? This is it. ” Teng Yu opened his arms wide and protected Yin Xu in his arms, although he knew that doing so was unnecessary, even if another circle of people were to come, they would not be able to harm him at all.
Yin Xu was clearly more interested than before. He looked at it seriously for a while, until a monkey came over with a plate, asking for a reward. Only then did he withdraw his gaze.
The little monkey was extremely thin, and its fur was dull. However, the way it held the plate looked somewhat cute and spiritual. It was obvious that it had been trained.
It raised its head and stood in front of Yin Xu. Seeing that Yin Xu was not moving, it did not move.
Yin Xu was amused. He reached his hand into his sleeves and pretended that he was going to take out the money. Sure enough, the little monkey immediately reached out its hand.
Yin Xu didn't bring any money on him, so of course he couldn't take out any money. As a result, he took out nothing for a long time, and even specially opened his palm for the little monkey to see.
Teng Yu felt that the current Yin Xu was extremely adorable, with a lot of liveliness, like a naughty child. Of course, it was more appropriate to describe him as a naughty kid.
“Like it?” He whispered into Yin Xu's ear.
Yin Xu did not nod his head nor did he shake it. He only said, “This kind of animal that has been tamed by humans is actually more loyal than humans.”
“If you like it, bring it back. It's just nice for your little fox to accompany you.”
“This is a good suggestion.” Yin Xu thought about it, and felt that this plan was extremely feasible. The little fox had played around crazily ever since it entered Third Prince Mansion, the huge prince's mansion was its, a fox's, land, and it had long forgotten about him.
Teng Yu took out a silver ingot and dropped it on the iron plate with a “keng deng” sound, attracting everyone's attention.
The master of the juggling class ran over quickly, snatched the plate, and held it nervously in his arms.
“Thank you, Young Noble! “Thank you, Young Noble!” He was from a foreign land and did not recognize the Third Prince. However, seeing that the two of them were dressed extravagantly and had extraordinary temperament, he was sure to be either rich or noble.
“The money isn't for free. I want it!” Teng Yu pointed to the little monkey and said.
“This …” The old class chairman rolled his eyes and said somewhat unwillingly, “This little monkey has followed me for many years, I treat it like my own son, I'm afraid …”
Teng Yu snorted, he did not believe those words, if he treated the monkey like his own son, he would not be raised to such a frail state.
As Teng Yu was a prince, he had a stern temperament and was different from ordinary people.
He weighed the silver ingot in his hand, estimating it to be about ten liang. Moreover, it was of excellent quality. Even if a group of people painstakingly performed for a month, they might not be able to make that much money.
He thought for a while. In any case, he caught this monkey on the mountain and didn't need to spend any money. He didn't need to spend much money to get more food or drinks, and he could even get customers to make money by giving it away for free.
Now, he had obviously taken a fancy to this little thing and was actually willing to spend ten taels of silver to buy it … The old class rep had originally wanted to add more silver to the money seeing that the two were rich, but seeing how Teng Yu was acting, he was afraid that it would not work anymore.
Some of the people who knew the Third Prince were already muttering and thinking that this old man was really bad for not knowing what was good for him. It was already a huge blessing for this master to be willing to spend money to buy it, if he wanted it, he had no choice but to give it to him.
“Alright, on account of Young Master's sincerity, let's take this little thing away. I just hope that Young Master can treat it well.” The old class monitor said with a resolute expression.
“It's always better than yours.” Teng Yu let Han Qing carry the little monkey away, and asked Yin Xu with lowered head: “Do you still want to look?”
“Let's go, it's not that big of a deal.”
The two of them once again squeezed through the crowd. Yin Xu glanced at the little monkey, who did not know what happened, and knocked its head, “Is this a model where people sell it to others and help them count the money?”
Don't mention it, the little monkey was still holding onto two copper coins, which were probably taken from the plate just now.
Teng Yu saw that its claws were dirty and frowned: “Go back and wash before letting it out.”
It was probably the first time in Han Qing's life that he was hugging a monkey. His expression and actions were a little stiff, and he nodded, “Yes.”
Yin Xu looked at the surroundings and it was not much fun anymore. He dragged Teng Yu and walked towards the shop that had the words “Sky Piercing Pavillion” written on it. He had noticed this conspicuous signboard just now and dared to use the word “Through the Heavens”.
Before even entering the door, he almost bumped into someone. Yin Xu raised his head and saw a familiar face.
Huo Yiloong clenched his teeth and roared: “Huo, Tian! You really did go to the capital! Who allowed you to come? “
When he received the news about the First Prince, he was still skeptical. He did not think that Huo Tian had the guts to do so.
Or did he think that finding a backer would solve the problem? How laughable!
Yin Xu's face darkened as he asked unhappily, “What does it have to do with you? This young master can go wherever he wants to go, do you need anyone's permission? “
“Nonsense, have you forgotten that without father's permission, you are not allowed to take even half a step into the capital?” Huo Yiloong raised his chin, and coldly snorted: “Come with me if you have the ability, and listen to Master Father's words!”
Yin Xu wasn't the slightest bit interested in his suggestion, he reached out his hand and pushed him away, “Scram! If you want to be my master, Huo Zhengquan does not have the qualifications! “
“…” Huo Yiloong was so shocked that his mouth was wide open. It was unknown whether it was because he heard Yin Xu's domineering declaration or because Yin Xu actually dared to touch him.
He pointed at Yin Xu hatefully and said incredulously: “You actually dare to call father by his name!” Even as a legitimate son, he had never dared to speak loudly in front of his father, much less call him by name.
“Isn't a name meant to be called? What is not Huo Zhengquan's name? ” Yin Xu had no interest in finding a mortal father for himself, and one that did not have any feelings for him at all.
“To be disrespectful to one's elders, that is truly very good!” Huo Yiloong glanced at Teng Yu who was behind him, and thought that he had found the crux of the problem, “Do you think that just by finding a backer, you can act arrogantly and not put Huo Family in your eyes?”
The corner of Yin Xu's mouth rose slightly as he said with a cold smile: “This young master has never put Huo Family in my eyes.” He just planned how to take over the Huo Family in his mind.
Huo Yiloong felt that he must have not woken up in the morning. Otherwise, how could he have heard such ridiculing words? In the entire world, who would dare to not put Huo Family in their eyes? Would Teng Yu dare? Would the Emperor dare to do so?
“What a young brat. I'm not going to argue with you. Go ask around first, so you won't regret it!” Huo Yiloong swung his sleeves and left with the group of people.
When those people left, they even looked at Yin Xu with ridicule on their faces. They probably thought him to be some lunatic who came out of a ravine to actually dare challenge Huo Family!
Yin Xu stared at their departing figures with an obscure expression. After a long while, he finally spoke up, “If only Huo Family were things like Huo Yiloong, then it would be great.”
Teng Yu pulled his face away and embraced him as he entered the door, “Stop joking around, if it really is like this, your Huo Family will be finished sooner or later and the emperor won't be so afraid of it anymore.”
Yin Xu curled his lips: “I'm even more curious about the Huo couple that have such a son. I hope they don't disappoint me!”
“Huo Zhengquan is not the most outstanding out of all the Patriarchs in the history of the Huo Family, but he has been in control of the Huo Family Army for many years, so he is definitely not a character that can be easily shaken.
“As for Mrs. Huo… You don't have to worry about her. Although she was a little scheming, she grew up in the Western Regions after all, and had a very straightforward personality. If not for Huo Zhengquan's pampering, she would have been dead meat. “
“Why did I hear that this Mrs. Huo is very capable?”
Teng Yu nodded his head: “The driver's ability is first class!”
“…” Yin Xu was dizzy, he could not understand where an unscheming woman got her masturbating skills from.
Teng Yu smiled and whispered into his ear, exhaling a breath of hot air and said softly, “All the women in the Western Regions specialize in housekeeping.
Yin Xu's eyelids jumped, and he chuckled.
It really was … A driver has skills!
