Chapter 179
When the merchant saw Xiao Tao's reaction, he also knew that he was overjoyed. But he had already come out just now and waited for Xiao Tao for a while, and at this time he had to rush back in a hurry, and if he left for too long, it would be easy for others to notice. Anyway, the purpose of his visit this time has been achieved, and he originally wanted to tell Zhao Rong that the two young masters of the palace family have arrived in the county seat, and it is estimated that they should take action in a few days.
Although the last time Gong Jian proposed to meet with Zhao Rong, the merchant felt that he had not done it well and did not achieve Gong Jian's wish, he was a little weak at this point. He also felt that maybe he messed things up this time, and he wouldn't let the new master value him anymore, but no matter what, he felt that if the final result was good, then he might still have room to redeem it. So now he was thinking about what to do, take advantage of the gap to leave the Zhao family to meet with Gong Jian and the two brothers, tell them the results of the last time, and then listen to their next arrangement.
So for Xiao Tao's side, the merchant just wanted to inform him, and there was nothing else, so after saying that, he was ready to leave. Seeing the big brother merchant who was about to leave, Xiao Tao suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said: "Brother merchant, please wait a little longer." ”
For Xiao Tao's retention, the merchant was very surprised. He didn't think that Zhao Rong had anything else to tell him. The last time he met Xiao Tao, the two of them had already made it very clear, and he also knew that it was an impossible arrangement for Zhao Rong's master and servant to meet the two palace young masters. So he couldn't understand why Xiao Tao stopped himself now. So after he stopped, he looked at Xiao Tao suspiciously, and asked, "What's the matter, Xiao Tao, do you have anything else?"
After thinking about it for a while, the merchant thought he had figured it out. Xiao Tao stopped himself, it is estimated that he also knows that he will try his best to meet with the two palace young masters, and it is estimated that Xiao Tao has something to say here, so the merchant simply turned around and waited patiently for Xiao Tao to speak.
But Xiao Tao was a little hesitant now, and he asked with some hesitation: "Then, that big brother merchant, are you going to meet with the two palace young masters recently?"
As soon as he heard Xiao Tao ask, the merchant felt that what he had guessed just now was estimated to be eight or nine. So he smiled and said, "Yes, I will definitely find a way to find a chance to leave the Zhao family and meet with the two palace young masters in advance, so that I can listen to what they plan next, and then listen to their instructions to act next." ”
Since Zhao Rong's master and servant had no way to leave the Zhao family, they were the only ones who passed on words to each other in the middle. Although this is a bit inefficient, but now the conditions can only be like this, and he probably thought it out in his heart, so he asked again: "Xiao Tao, do you have anything to say that I need to bring the two palace masters, or do you have something that your young master said that needs to be conveyed?"
Hearing the merchant say this, Xiao Tao knew that he must be thinking crookedly, so he hurriedly shook his head, "No, no, big brother." We don't have anything to say here to convey to the two palace masters. ”
Now it's the merchant's turn to be strange, he doesn't understand, since Xiao Tao doesn't have anything to say by himself, why did he stop himself when he was about to leave just now, and he really can't understand why Xiao Tao did this. So he looked at Xiao Tao with puzzled eyes again, this time, he didn't know how to ask, did he want to ask Xiao Tao directly, then what did you stop me for? Is it to delay time?
Fortunately, seeing the merchant's gaze, Xiao Tao also realized that his actions and words just now made people misunderstand. So he hurriedly opened his mouth to explain to himself: "That's the case, big brother merchant, didn't you say last time that Young Master Gong wanted to meet my young master, after my young master heard the news, he has been trying to find a way." ”
Hearing Xiao Tao say this, the merchant's eyes lit up, could it be that Young Master Zhao Rong thought of a way to let the two people meet directly. If that's the case, that's great.
In the merchant's opinion, whether it was promoted by himself or achieved by the efforts of Zhao Rong's master and servant, anyway, as long as Zhao Rong's master and servant and the two palace young masters met, this matter would be very beneficial to him. After all, if things go well, then in the heart of the new master, there is no so-called unreliable impression of doing things. In that case, if he proposes to follow him and want to come to this man, it will be easier to agree.
So the merchant asked eagerly: "That little peach, has your young master already thought of a way? Can you tell me how he arranged it, do you need my cooperation to help him find a way to leave the Zhao family temporarily?"
In the merchant's heart, of course, he felt that Zhao Rong had the only chance to meet the two palace young masters, that is, Zhao Rong's master and servant would find a way to let Zhao Rong or their master and servant temporarily leave the Zhao family and find a place outside to meet the two palace young masters, so he would ask such a question directly.
And after Xiao Tao listened to the merchant's inquiry, he hurriedly shook his head, and even his two hands were shaking again and again, indicating that this was impossible: "No, no, big brother merchant." There is no way for me and the young master of our family to leave the Zhao family, and in fact, if we have a way to sneak out of the Zhao family, it will be more difficult to come back. You also know that if we want to enter the Zhao family, we need a special brand. Without that thing, no one would have been able to enter the Zhao family. ”
Hearing Xiao Tao mention this, the merchant remembered that the last time he left the Zhao family, the steward gave him a brand, and when he returned to the door, the guard also checked the sign he handed over before letting him in. Thinking about it like this, the merchant's heart really fell again. That's right, the Zhao family has such strict rules, and there is no way for Zhao Rong's master and servant to sneak out and come back secretly.
Thinking of the last time, because he was in a hurry to complete the things entrusted by Gong Jian, he didn't care about the actual situation at all, and he agreed to the end, and then the merchant's heart couldn't help but fall down again.
It seems that it is not easy for me to follow the new promotion. It's hateful to hate that the Zhao family is so strict in this family, and no big family is like them.
