I don't know why, hearing Su Yun say this, Cao Peng felt a little guilty.

After all, she is not looking for a woman outside now, but Su Zi...

Oh my God, I can't imagine how upside down it would be if Su Yun knew!

Mid-autumn festival.

The traditional festival of the Chinese people, the poetry of the ancients, the bright moon on the sea, the end of the world at this time.

Today, Cao Peng plans to cook a table of dishes at home, and then call Tian Ji and Zhao Qinglong over to have a meal together.

After all, the proprietress also brought gifts for these two goods, just let them come over to get them, should they send them over?

Early in the morning, the proprietress and Cao Peng went to buy vegetables, after all, the dishes in the morning were the freshest.

Speaking of which, now Cao Peng's most familiar place is the vegetable market, and the stall vendors are also very happy to see this master, after all, they are generous, and they often buy vegetables for more than ten yuan, and they don't need to look for twenty.

Therefore, these vegetable bosses have to try to get a fraction for Boss Cao every time, so that the boss will give a little more, plus a short catty or two, which is a good income.

Right now, there is a shortage of such young people.

Cao Peng doesn't mind at all, whether you treat me as a fool or a big wrongdoer, in short, as long as you sell me fresh vegetables, it doesn't matter if you give me a few extra change.

I also have a lot of money, but I can only eat so much every day.

Therefore, when Cao Peng goes to the vegetable market, he usually buys the freshest and best dishes, so it can be seen from this little thing that everything has different positions and heights, and his ideas are completely different.

And everything, it's fair.

After buying vegetables and putting them in the car, the two of them went to the supermarket again, bought some drinks and snacks, and the most important thing was to buy moon cakes, not to mention, the moon cakes are really expensive now, what snow skin moon cakes, four is more than 500 yuan, which is simply sky-high.

But I still bought it hard, after all, Su Zi is good at this bite.

Su Zi and Ouyang Yudi had already gotten up and were waiting for breakfast, while Cao Peng and Su Yun didn't have time to buy breakfast for the two of them, and in the end, Su Zi was unhappy, Cao Peng sighed and made breakfast for the two women.

Speaking of which, I am busy in the kitchen all day long.

At noon, Zhao Xingsu came back, or Cao Peng called, this time it was okay, there was still some money left in his pocket, but looking at the appearance, the boss was reluctant.

After a while, Tian Ji also came, with his wife and children, or the first time to see Tian Ji's wife and children, Tian Ji's wife, at first glance, is a woman who does her duty, her son is already in elementary school, looks smart and smart, but a little skinny.

Then Zhao Qinglong and his wife, too, brought a lot of gifts.

Moon cakes are indispensable, Cao Peng secretly regretted that he didn't buy them if he knew that they brought so many moon cakes, after all, these moon cakes are expensive!

I was a little flattered to learn that the proprietress had brought gifts to the two of them, although it was not a valuable thing, and the two of them were also happy.

It's important to keep this in mind!

Su Yun is also very generous to the proprietress and is very thoughtful in entertaining these people, but the fact that Su Yun doesn't cook seems to be exposed today.

Originally, Tian Ji and Zhao Qinglong's wife said that they were helping to get vegetables, but they didn't expect that it was Cao Peng who cooked, which was a little inconvenient.

said that he was a starter, but in fact he was chatting with Cao Peng.

Both of them are big and coarse, and they usually don't even go to the kitchen to put a bowl at home, where will they pick and wash vegetables, let alone cook.

At four o'clock, the meal was ready.

A large number of people are in the courtyard, Zhao Xingsu is the oldest and the oldest, sitting in the main seat, and the rest of the people are sitting in columns, which is warm.

Cao Peng also sighed that this kind of experience has really lived for almost 30 years, and he has not experienced it yet.

In fact, Cao Peng really treats Ah Qiang, Zhao Qinglong, including Tian Ji, as his own family.

These people also feel Cao Peng's feelings, so they are also heart-to-heart and absolute loyalty to Cao Peng, many times, loyalty does not have to rely on faith, feelings are actually the most real and reliable.

Ah Qiang is still in Liangping, he keeps calling to come back, Cao Peng asked him to stay there, although Jiang Qiubai promised not to embarrass Chen Vashan, and in the past month, he has also done so, but Cao Peng is still not at ease, after all, Chen Fashan's position is very important.

Speaking of which, Cao Peng wants to develop his power now, and his strength is there, but now is not the time to tear his face with Jiang Qiubai, it seems that he can only develop in Chang'an Province.

The first underground person in Chang'an Province is called Xu An, a really old existence, and this position is also passed down by his father, which can be regarded as a son inheriting his father's business, and this Xu An is not at ease at all, and he has always had thoughts about Heyang before, but later Jiang Qiubai's strong rise made him dispel this idea.

However, this Xu An has been running Chang'an Province, and he can be regarded as raising a son better than his father, and he runs Chang'an Province with iron and iron pass, even people like Chen Yuanqiao really don't have a chance to get involved, but now Cao Peng has really moved this idea.

Why not Sichuan Province, there must be a difference, Chang'an Province belongs to the gateway of the northwest, and Sichuan Province belongs to the southwest, there is a big difference between the two, people on the road pay attention to the region, for example, things in Long Province, you can fight with Jiang Qiubai to the death, but if Chen Yuanqiao wants to insert a lever, Cao Peng and Jiang Qiubai will not agree, because he does not belong to Long Province.

In the same way, Chang'an Province belongs to the northwest, and Long Province is also the land of the northwest, so at least the people over there are far less serious than the people in Sichuan Province for xenophobia, of course, the difficulties are naturally needless to say, but now that there are Shadow Sect and Jiang Qiubai behind him, it is not impossible to operate.

But he said that a large table of people was eating and chatting, but there was a knock on the door outside the courtyard.

Cao Peng went to open the door, and there was a middle-aged man standing outside the door, who looked honest and responsible, but occasionally, there was a flash of essence in his eyes.

Cao Peng didn't know this person.

"Who are you looking for?"

The man didn't reply, but looked left and right, and then half of the black token poked out of his cuff.

Cao Peng understood at a glance that it turned out to be the person who killed the Shadow Gate.

"Come in!"

Cao Peng took this person directly to the study, and after the middle-aged man came in, he took out a black ghost head token and saluted Cao Peng: "In Xia Fanchuan, the deacon in the door, I have seen Lord Cao Helm!"

Cao Peng nodded.

"What's the matter?"

Fan Chuan took out two black bamboo tubes from his arms, and carved the ghost head on them, the same as the bamboo tube of the last mission: "Master Cao Helm, this is a task passed down from above!"

Cao Peng glanced at Fan Chuan, and then took it, sure enough, it was the exclusive mark of the Killing Shadow Gate, and after confirming it, Fan Chuan hugged his fists: "Master Cao Helm, the mission order has arrived, and I will go back to my life next!"

Cao Peng nodded: "Hard work!"

Fan Chuan turned around and left.

After Fan Chuan left, Cao Peng took a closer look at the bamboo tubes of these two tasks, one was a human-level task and the other was a ghost-level task.

This is the first time Cao Peng has received a task since he took office for the first time, and he feels a little uncomfortable.

The Shadow Killing Gate belongs to the executive department in the Shadow Sect, and as its name suggests, it is mainly the task of assassination and assassination.

Cao Peng frowned, although these people didn't want to take it, but now it seems that there is no way, After all, he has been planted with this strange poison, and even Zhao Xingsu of the Great Grandmaster Realm can't solve it.

Moreover, the rudder master is assessed, a year for a unit, if the completion rate of the task is less than 80 percent, it will be demoted, if it is less than 50 percent, but also face a very heavy punishment, what the specific punishment, Cao Peng does not know, but the feedback from Zhuang Hai, it is best to complete the task according to the duty, because the punishment is terrible.

Of course, the tasks of the peripheral helmsman are all local tasks, in fact, there are generally not many, and the difficulty is not high, generally speaking, the helmsman can be completed, and very few high-level tasks will also have people above to assist you.

Open the ghost-level bamboo tube, and on it is a person named Zheng Feng who assassinated a local person.

Cao Peng didn't know much about this person's information.

And inside the human-level bamboo tube, it turned out to be an escort task, which is strange, killing people is a ghost-level task, and escorting a person, passing by Heyang, turned out to be a human-level task, obviously, this person is very important.

Completing ghost-level tasks rewards you with cash, ranging from 100,000 to 1 million, while completing human-level tasks rewards you with a pill called Tianji Pill.

This thing, in the Shadow Sect, is extremely precious, not only can it access qi and blood, but the most important thing is that it can increase the degree of perfection of the moon mark on the chest, it is said that eating about ten can reach the half moon from the crescent moon, and eating fifteen can reach the full moon from the half moon, that is, the deputy door master level.

Of course, there are very few human-level tasks, and human-level tasks are all to assassinate martial artists, even including cultivating to ordinary grandmasters, as for god-level tasks, it is the task of assassinating Jiang Qiubai on Cao Peng's body now, which is generally some powerful people, or bigwigs of a province.

As for the prefecture-level task, it is the king of the region, the elders of the major forces, and the heaven-level task, which is to assassinate the great grandmaster realm, or such as the patriarch of the Baili family, the master of the Immortal Crane Gate, this kind of task is a heaven-level task.

Cao Peng looked at the two tasks and hesitated.

It's okay to say that this ghost-level task can be handed over to Duan Xiaoxiao, and the human-level task can indeed only be taken by a helmsman level person like himself, the most important thing is that this task is completed, and the reward is sent directly from above, and it is to be eaten by you personally.

This is where Cao Peng hesitated.

Because, he knew that this moon mark not only proved to be a disciple of the Shadow Sect, but also a poison for the disciples of the Shadow Sect to control, and the Tianji Pill could increase the completeness of the moon mark, so it was naturally still a poison, even if it was a blood vein, but it was always a poison.

I didn't plan to mix in the Shadow Sect for the rest of my life, and now I just want this identity, but now I can't help myself.

If you don't want to complete the task, there are not many tasks, and the proportion is very heavy, so it's okay to be demoted, but if you face some punishments, it's true that Cao Peng doesn't want to take a step now.

That's it, since you've been poisoned, it doesn't matter if it's a little bit more.

With this in mind, Cao Peng put two notes in his pocket and continued to eat.

"Xiaopeng, what's the matter? Who was it just now? Why is it sneaky?" the proprietress asked.

"It's okay, a friend, let's eat. ”

Tonight the sky is clear and the moonlight is sultry, which is really a good time to enjoy the moon.

Washing dishes is such a thing, Su Yun is now packed, this is more or less for Cao Peng to earn back some face, Cao Peng is also happy to be idle, this time, Tian Ji's wife, Zhao Qinglong's wife, can be regarded as finding something to do, and the three women are competing to wash the dishes.

After washing, I prepared melon and fruit snacks and moon cakes, and chatted together in the courtyard to enjoy the moon and chat.

At about ten o'clock, the children of the field chicken were sleepy, and then they dispersed.
