Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Two Young Masters of the Sword Gate
[Chapter Seventy-Nine-The Two Young Masters of the Sword Gate] A customer from Chu Guolai
Duan Baiyue said: "Let's go, go to the Golden Elephant Dart Bureau." ”
Sikong Rui said: "Hey, why don't you really go to meet that Goryeo princess first?" ”
"What you just said has some truth, but it is also a little unfounded." Duan Baiyue said, "According to Jin Shu's temper, if he was wronged after getting married, I am afraid that he would have returned to Goryeo in anger." Now that she has been living in this white elephant country, it means that she is living a good life, since she is living a good life, why should she take the initiative to mention the past to her own husband, and it is boring to talk about it? ”
Sikong Rui sighed: "I can't see it, you know this princess of Goryeo quite well." ”
"Well said." Duan Baiyue had a kind attitude, "Naturally, it can't compare to Brother Sikong's understanding of Miss Nie." ”
Sikong Rui's smile instantly stiffened.
"Let's go." Duan Baiyue turned around and walked out of the calligraphy and painting shop, "Go to the Golden Elephant Dart Bureau." ”
As the passer-by just said, if the Sword Gate does not do business, the rest of the dart board martial arts can get a big advantage, and the Golden Elephant Dart Game is naturally no exception. The door is full of visitors and visitors, and almost even the threshold has to be flattened.
"Two guests." A man who looked like a housekeeper happened to send another group of people out, and when he saw Duan Baiyue and Sikong Rui looking over, he hurriedly smiled and greeted him in slightly stiff Chinese, "But you want to talk to my master about business?" ”
Sikong Rui smiled and said, "Exactly." ”
"Please, please." The housekeeper smiled and let the two in, "Look at the clothes, the two are from Da Chu, right?" ”
"My ancestral home is in Dachu, but I have been living in Wangxi Reef all these years." Sikong Rui said, "I wonder if Mr. has heard of it?" ”
"Naturally, Lookout Reef is also a good place." The housekeeper ordered someone to serve tea, and said with a smile, "Then the distinguished guest will sit down for a while, and I will go and invite the master over." ”
Sikong Rui nodded and watched him go out the door. Soon after, footsteps were heard outside the door, and a burly middle-aged man pushed the door in, bowing respectfully.
"This is my lord." The butler said behind him.
"Excuse me." Duan Baiyue and Sikong Rui also stood up, "I don't know what to call it?" ”
"My lord's name is Kunda." The housekeeper said, "He doesn't know Chinese, but he likes to do business with the people of Chu very much, saying that he is a guest from a big place, bold and righteous." ”
"Awards, awards." Sikong Rui said, "I just saw that there were people coming and going in front of this door, and I was also flattered to bother Master Kunda to receive us in person." ”
Kunda motioned for the two to sit down, and then said something to the butler.
The housekeeper said: "My lord is saying, I don't know what deal the two of you want to make." ”
Sikong Rui said: "I want to hire ten killers. ”
The butler looked embarrassed and whispered to Kunda.
Kunda frowned and shook his head repeatedly.
Sure enough, after a while, the butler said: "I'm really sorry, now all the killer operations have stopped, and they won't do it again this year, only the dart master and the martial arts sect leader can be hired." ”
Duan Baiyue said: "We can pay a lot of money. ”
Kunda still shook his head: "I don't care how much the price is, and I ask the guests not to embarrass us." ”
"How can it be difficult." Sikong Rui said, "The killer business of the White Elephant Country has long been famous, and we also made a special trip to come here for this purpose, but now the shopkeeper said that he would not take the business, so we ran for nothing." If we insist on saying that it is difficult, it should be the shopkeeper who is difficult for us. ”
"This ......" the housekeeper was speechless, and discussed a few words with Kunda in a whisper, but still insisted, "Business people pay attention to reputation, and we don't want to go if we hurt your guests to run for nothing, but there is really no way." ”
Sikong Rui said: "Reason? ”
The housekeeper said: "Someone broke the rules of the business, so in order not to cause trouble, I have to do it temporarily." ”
Sikong Rui said: "Who? ”
The housekeeper said: "This is the dispute between the many dart bureaus in the White Elephant Country, and the guests still don't have to ask again." If you really want to find a killer, maybe you can ask other families, but the two distinguished guests seem to be in urgent need, I still say a word here, even if you go to Dachu to find it, you don't have to waste time in the White Elephant Country anymore, in the short term, I'm afraid that no one will dare to take the killer's business anymore. ”
"That's right." Sikong Rui glanced at Duan Baiyue, and when he saw him nodding slightly, he said, "Then I'll bother today and leave." ”
"Farewell." The housekeeper bowed, and Kunda also stood up and personally sent the two out of the Golden Elephant Dart Bureau.
"Looking at this posture, it is estimated that many dart bureaus and martial arts in the country of this white elephant now hate the sword gate to death." Sikong Rui said, "The ambitious leopard is daring, daring to assassinate the Son of Heaven of Da Chu, and even the entire industry has nothing to eat." ”
Duan Baiyue said: "Let's go, go back to the inn, and ask that little girl what she knows." ”
"Aren't you afraid she'll lie now?" Sikong Rui asked.
"I just came here last night, and everyone will be nervous, so naturally I shouldn't ask more. But now that I have rested all night, and Yao'er has been with me for a day, I should let go of the mustard in my heart. Duan Baiyue bought a bag of snacks on the street, "Do you know how many girls like Yao'er in Dali City?" ”
Sikong Rui said: "It's a pity that I don't have a niece. "Otherwise, if you are close to the water, you can still occupy some first.
Duan Baiyue glanced at him: "Next time you have a chance, you can go to meet Lord Liu Dajiong of the Great Chu Household Department." ”
Sikong Rui was puzzled: "Why? ”
Duan Baiyue said: "It looks like I'm from the same door as you." ”
Sikong Rui looked puzzled.
Duan Baiyue had already returned to the inn with snacks.
Duan Yao was chatting with Huang Li, and when she saw the two coming back, she stood up to say hello.
"Brought some snacks." Duan Baiyue put the paper bag in her hand on the table, "I don't know if the girl likes it or not." ”
"Thank you, uncle." As expected, Huang Li looked much more relaxed.
"Today we went to the Sword Gate." Duan Baiyue said, "It's just that the door is closed, saying that it has been closed for more than ten days." ”
"How many masters want to do business with the Sword Gate?" Huang Li asked.
Duan Baiyue said: "The girl doesn't have to be nervous, since she brought you back to the inn, she will naturally not hand you over again, otherwise she will be asking for trouble." ”
"Tell me, why does the Sword Gate close its doors?" Sikong Rui handed her a cup of tea.
"It's been locked up for more than ten days." Huang Li said, "The business has been doing well before, and suddenly the head of the house was furious one day, everyone in the house was extremely nervous, and there were rumors in private that the second young master took a list that he shouldn't have accepted, and he provoked people who couldn't be provoked." In order to avoid trouble, it is not counted as closing the door, but everyone in the house will be interrogated once, and it is ordered not to talk nonsense outside. Originally, the fourth aunt and grandmother were pregnant with Liujia, and they should have given birth next month, but they were also frightened and slipped, and the old lady was even more guilty of heartache, lying in bed and unable to get up, and some people saw ghosts. The eldest grandmother invited the mage back, saying that if there was a bad star in the house, there would be a series of unlucky things, and it was best to hurry up and have a happy event. ”
"So Bao Dadu is going to marry you?" Sikong Rui asked.
Huang Li nodded: "I was originally just a girl who served vegetables, and the head of the family couldn't like it, but I couldn't find another girl in a hurry, and I wanted to do a happy event, and I was the only one in Jianmen who could say that I would marry." ”
Sikong Rui shook his head, this is okay.
"Who taught you kung fu?" Duan Baiyue asked.
"The Sword Gate is a martial arts, and everyone in it knows kung fu." Huang Li said, "I'm not qualified to learn, but there is an old dart head who sees me as clever, so he loves to teach me a few tricks, and I learned some." He also taught Chinese, he was from Chu, and the teacher at home also taught some. ”
"Don't want to be an aunt?" Sikong Rui quipped.
Huang Li immediately shook his head: "I wanted to run after I knew it, but I knew that I couldn't run away, so I ......"
"So he sent me a flower, and when he saw that I looked like a good talker, and that I was carrying a knife, he immediately packed up his baggage and ran to me?" Duan Yao asked.
Huang Li's face turned red, and he looked at him with watery eyes, and he was also stupid at that time, and he couldn't think of any other ideas.
Duan Yao immediately patted his chest: "Fortunately, my daughter-in-law doesn't know." ”
Sikong Rui laughed, this is pretending to have a daughter-in-law pretending to be addicted, isn't it?
Duan Baiyue said: "What is the origin of that head of Bao Dadu?" ”
"Origin?" Huang Li did not answer.
Sikong Rui said: "When did you come to the White Elephant Country?" ”
"It's not always here, it's always here." Huang Li said, "Although the ancestral home is Chu State, the head of Bao has been here since his last generation, and he has always opened the sword gate. ”
"That's it......" Sikong Rui touched his chin and glanced at Duan Baiyue. If your ancestors are here, it sounds like no problem.
Duan Baiyue said: "Since you are the girl who serves the food, you should have seen a lot of guests who came to talk about business." ”
Huang Li nodded: "Well, I'm smart, so it's me who comes back to serve the food." ”
Duan Baiyue continued to ask, "Are there many guests in the Chu Kingdom?" ”
"Many." Huang Li said, "Especially in the past few years. ”
Duan Baiyue took out the portrait from her arms, it was a copy, and she only had a pair of eyes: "Do you have an impression?" ”
Huang Li took it in his hand and looked at it, and said, "Yes." ”
Sikong Rui tsk, there really is.
"Tell me about it." Duan Baiyue said.
"But that guest's eyes weren't so kind." Huang Li said, "I am also a guest of Da Chu, I came to find the second young master, I remember very clearly, I came not long ago." ”
"Why do you remember clearly?" Duan Baiyue asked.
Huang Li said: "This guest is good-looking, tall, handsome, and quite noble, completely different from ordinary merchants, at that time, many little sisters secretly watched, I can serve, and everyone made fun of and jealous, but it was fierce, and I was a little scared to watch." ”
Duan Baiyue smiled: "What else?" ”
"Also, the two young masters in the family, generally the distinguished guests of Da Chu are received by the eldest young master, but this time it was handed over to the second young master, but it was the first time." Huang Li said, "That's why I can remember." ”
Duan Baiyue asked, "The relationship between the two young masters is not good, right?" ”
Huang Li nodded: "It's not good, I often quarrel, the head of the sect prefers the eldest young master, and everyone in the sword gate knows it." So at that time, everyone was muttering, why would such a big guest be handed over to the second young master this time. ”
