Chapter Seventy-Six: Wanted
The words of the second shopkeeper made the guys in the room laugh along. The strange laughter of the yellow-skinned man www.biquge.info pen ~ fun ~ pavilion is even more shocking to people's eardrums. Wu Qingfeng didn't make a sound, his thin lips were pursed, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes.
His hand moved, and quietly reached into his bosom, where a short knife with a blade as cold as snow was hidden. Ever since he broke into the drunken Red Mansion that day and night but was trapped by Hua Lianyue with a fishing net, he had this short knife on his body. He secretly made up his mind that he would never let himself fall into the kind of situation that called heaven and earth ineffective.
No matter how down-and-out he is, his dignified eldest son of the Marquis of Huaiyang is not something that these humble people can humiliate.
In fact, he didn't know that this was a trick of the Shen family's pawnshop, once he met a guest like him, the things in his hand were still passable. They will first humiliate and belittle the future people, and then take the opportunity to lower the price.
They are not afraid that they will mess up the business, and there are several pawnshops in Meiling County to choose from in the past. The price given by this one is too low, and you can try it at another house. In recent years, I don't know what tricks Boss Shen has secretly played, and all the pawnshops in the county have the surname Shen. So as long as you want to be a thing, you have no choice but the Shen family's pawnshop.
"Second shopkeeper, what's so happy?" Everyone looked back and saw a man in a green robe walking in.
The second shopkeeper hurriedly greeted him: "Who should I be, it turns out to be the head of Li Cell." At this time, the fat face of the second shopkeeper smiled like a blossoming meat bun, which was called a spring breeze, and there was no trace of the previous high-spirited mean face.
I heard him say enthusiastically to Li Jiaotou: "You can sit down first, I will send this place first, and then I will greet you." ”
"Okay, okay, you are busy with yours first, I'm not in a hurry. Cell-headed Li waved his hand disapprovingly, paced himself and found a chair and sat down. The guys who were still showing off their might also dispersed, pouring tea and greeting each other, so warm and thoughtful.
Hearing that the person who came was from the official mansion, Wu Qingfeng's brain, which was overwhelmed by anger, suddenly cleared up a lot, and he finally removed the hand that had already grabbed the handle of the knife. It's not that he is afraid of this cell leader, but he thinks of Ye Wushuang, who is sick in bed, still waiting for the silver money to grab the medicine.
The second shopkeeper glanced at Wu Qingfeng, knocked on the counter, and urged: "Hey, you still don't have a wolf skin mattress?"
Wu Qingfeng took a few deep breaths before he said in a deep voice: "Dang!" He put the wolf skin mattress in his arms on the counter again.
The second shopkeeper said casually: "Are you going to work or die?"
Wu Qingfeng wanted to live very much, because Ye Wushuang liked this wolf skin mattress very much, after all, this was the first gift he had personally created for her. But thinking that it would take a lot of money to catch the medicine, he gritted his teeth and said, "Die." "At most, after the beginning of spring, I will go up to the mountains to hunt some wild animals and remake the mattresses.
"Okay!" the second shopkeeper took a pawn ticket and lifted the pen covered with ink. While the dragon flying and the phoenix danced in the book, he prolonged the voice and read: "Insects eat rats, the bare board is hairless, and there is a tattered mattress." When - silver - two coins. ”
"What, it's only two dollars of silver?" Wu Qingfeng was stunned for a moment, and then he was furious, and said, "Are you blind? My wolfskin mattress was only made a few months ago, and it is not the color of the bottom of the box." The color of the fur on this is as shiny as new, and there is no scar at all, where is the insect eating rat bite, and the bare board is hairless? You go to the Jinxiu Building to see, the wolf skin mattress of the same color is sold for fifteen taels of silver a piece. ”
Wu Qingfeng has not been a thing, when he was the prince of Huaiyang Hou in the past, he often stole antiques from the family when he had no money in his hand, or the jewelry left by his mother to sell. Although the shopkeepers of those pawnshops are also desperate to reduce prices, they have never pressed so outrageously.
When the second shopkeeper heard this, a gleam flashed in Yu Bao's eyes, he stopped his pen and ink, and said in a long tone: "I'll tell you that even if you go to Jinxiu Building at this moment and spend fifteen taels of silver to buy a new wolf skin mattress, this is also a rag that eats insects and rats, and the bare board is hairless." Anyway, it's just two dollars of silver, if you sell it, you can sell it, and if you don't want to sell it, immediately roll up your rags and get out. ”
"You ......" Wu Qingfeng was furious, if it weren't for the fact that the counter in front of him was too high, the second shopkeeper would hide behind and only show one head and half of his shoulders. Wu Qingfeng really wanted to slap him over and knock away the disdain on his fat face.
He closed his eyes, exhaled a long breath, gritted his teeth, and said, "It's done!
The second shopkeeper smiled proudly, quickly wrote the pawn ticket, picked out a piece of fluttering broken silver from the money box, and threw it on the counter.
Wu Qingfeng looked at the broken silver in his palm, and felt that it would be blown away if the wind was stronger. He sighed helplessly and strode out.
Seeing him go out of the door, the second shopkeeper didn't forget to take a sip and said, "Dead poor ghost, you dare to come to our Shen family's pawnshop to play tricks." If you don't know each other, you won't even be given these two pieces of silver. ”
Out of the pawnshop gate, Wu Qingfeng hesitated for a moment, then turned around and headed west. didn't notice that a pair of shining eyes were secretly staring at him.
"Wu Qingfeng?" Yin Che said in surprise: "Why is he here?" I didn't expect his face to be ruined like this, no wonder he could be silent for so long. ”
Hua Lianyue glanced at Wu Qingfeng's back, and said calmly: "He is not a son of the world now, where can he go in the north and south? ”
"You don't know!" Yin Che leaned into her ear and said with great interest: "He is a wanted criminal, and the reward is five thousand taels of silver." Someone else secretly added 10,000 taels of bonuses to buy his necklace head. ”
Hua Lianyue was taken aback when she heard this, and said, "Who is so generous? He has fallen into such a situation, and he still doesn't plan to let it go." ”
Yin Che shrugged his shoulders and said, "I only know that the document says that because he lost his identity as a son, he set fire to a manor because he was angry. More than a dozen people died inside, and even his stepmother was burned. The old Huaiyang Marquis has already said cruel words, saying that it is his life or death, and the Huaiyang Marquis Mansion will never ask. Now there are many people in the six doors who are secretly inquiring about his whereabouts, trying to earn this money. ”
Hua Lianyue couldn't help but stare at her vigilantly when she heard this, and said, "Don't you want to exchange him for bonuses?"
Yin Che sneered and said, "The people I arrested are all key criminals who kill people and oversell goods, so I'm not interested in such a down-and-out son." Besides, there are many dark things in these mansions, and who knows who set the fire. As he spoke, Yin Che's chin raised slightly, with an indescribable pride and disdain.
Before Hua Lianyue could speak, Xie Yuanda hurriedly came and whispered a few words in Yin Che's ear. Yin Che's eyes lit up, and he said, "Let's go, this catcher will take you to catch the rats!"
