"Officials, please wait a moment."

Hearing someone shouting, the yamen runners patrolling the streets immediately stopped and looked at the person in confusion.

Zhou Changjiang smiled widely and respectfully handed over the braised meat in his hand.

"You officials have worked hard patrolling the streets. This is our homemade braised meat. Let you try it."

The yamen runners didn't find it strange and weren't polite at all.

The leader took the braised meat, weighed it, and nodded with satisfaction, "We have received the braised meat."

After the patrol is over, I'll go get some wine to go with this braised meat.

Seeing that the officials had no problem with the amount of braised meat, Zhou Changjiang secretly breathed a sigh of relief and took two tentative steps forward.

The leading yamen runner immediately frowned and looked at him, "What else do you want?"

It is normal for these street patrollers to have some vendors come up to them and try to curry their favor.

Of course, it is not ruled out that there will be requests for them, but those are additional prices, and it is obvious that this braised meat is not enough.

Seeing that the head of the yamen runners was a little angry, Zhou Changjiang quickly bowed respectfully and said, "To be honest, sir, I came here today specifically to thank you, sir."

"How can I express my gratitude?"

The head of the yamen runners thought he was just being polite and didn't take it seriously. He just waited for him to tell him what he wanted to do and then directly refused.

Zhou Changjiang didn't understand what he meant. He just followed his third brother's wife's instructions and said in a slightly lowered voice, "A few days ago, the official helped our family find our child. We are very grateful, so we wanted to treat the strange man to a meal to express our gratitude."

When he heard that it was about the child, the leading yamen runner immediately remembered that he had gained a lot of benefits from that mission.

"No problem, but since we need to eat, let's wait until our patrol is over and then go to the Fulai Inn."

Knowing that he had come specifically to express his gratitude, the head of the yamen runners did not hesitate and directly picked a place.

Fulai Restaurant is not too expensive, nor too bad, which is just right for them.

Zhou Changjiang naturally nodded in agreement and watched the yamen runners leave before going back.

"Brother, is everything done?"

Although Bai Zhizhi asked, she actually already knew the general idea in her heart.

"Everything is done. Go find a seat at the Fulai Inn later. They will come over after the connection is completed."

Zhou Changjiang smiled and started working again with swift hands and feet.

Hearing what Brother Zhou said, Bai Zhizhi couldn't help but raise her eyebrows. She had already planned to go to the most expensive restaurant in the county, but she didn't expect those yamen runners to be so nice and only choose a mediocre one.

Not seeing any sign of trouble on his third brother's wife's face, Zhou Changjiang breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, he didn't mess it up.

Seeing that there weren't many people on the street, Bai Zhizhi simply called the two brothers of the Zhou family and said, "I don't think we can sell much. We might as well just close the stall and go to the Fulai Inn first."

Naturally, the two brothers had no reason to disagree. After packing up the things on hand, they immediately started to clean up quickly.

Bai Zhizhi said something to them and walked towards the Fulai Inn first.

Because she didn't know what they would talk about later, Bai Zhizhi simply called a private room.

There were not many people in the inn to begin with, so when the waiter heard that they wanted a private room, he immediately arranged it and took Bai Zhizhi up there without even hesitating.

Bai Zhizhi looked at the room and felt that it was almost the same as before, so she asked directly what food was available in the inn.

The waiter naturally introduced the shop's signs and listed a list of dishes.

Bai Zhizhi listened with great interest, then ordered the signature dishes again, "You guys make them first. If it's not enough, we'll add more later."

The waiter naturally disagreed and quickly left.

Not long after, the two brothers of the Zhou family also came up.

Knowing that Bai Zhizhi had already ordered the dishes, Zhou Changjiang went to ask the waiter for some wine.

Because he was treating the county officials to a meal, Zhou Changjiang didn't dare to ask for too cheap liquor, so he ordered a few pots of similar ones.
