——

Early the next morning.

Lu Ran slept full, refreshed.

An Ning had already gotten up, and she was lying on her stomach on the window next to her, with a pair of big eyes full of excitement outside the window.

Lu Ran looked at An Ning's quiet and happy appearance, and felt that this day was really a happy start.

When Lu Ran got up to wash, An Ning turned around to look at Lu Ran.

It wasn't until Lu Ran was about to comb his hair and tidy up his hair that An Ning suddenly leaned over to help.

Lu Ran was a little surprised: "Can you comb your hair?"

"Hmm!" An Ning snapped in response.

Lu Ran couldn't help but smile, but he estimated in his heart, probably because An Ning often watched Xiaoli comb his hair, so he learned it?

When An Ning put down the comb, Lu Ran found that it was really similar to Xiaoli's comb, and he couldn't help but be extremely satisfied.

"Okay, An Ning, come out with me later, but remember to follow me well, don't get lost!" Lu Ran said. Ordinary people naturally can't see Anning, and Qi Refiners won't have much trouble when they see Anning, after all, Anning has gone through the legal procedures for entering the city, so there is no problem at all to take Anning out for a walk.

An Ning shook her little head seriously and nodded, got up and flew up, and sat on Lu Ran's shoulder.

Lu Ran, who looked confused, looked at An Ning, who was obviously a lot taller than himself, although An Ning had no weight, but the visual effect was still a little awkward, but Lu Ran couldn't say anything, for fear of hurting the little guy's heart.

Now, Lu Ran lives in just an ordinary two-entry courtyard, which is just a place where Lu Hongyi settled when he bought it, naturally it is not luxurious, but just ordinary.

walked out of the courtyard and closed the door, and just at the entrance of the alley where the courtyard was located, there were stalls selling food.

Lu Ran had a casual breakfast at the stall at the entrance of this alley, and this was the few shops that Lu Hongyi bought.

According to Lao Lu, because he was busy and didn't have time to come to Gyeongju Mansion, these shops probably hadn't paid their rent for three years. Before leaving, the bookkeeper also made a book for Lu Ran, and wrote clearly how much each family should receive.

If he has money, Lu Ran should naturally collect it first and replenish his pocket money.

But walking on the street, Lu Ran noticed that on the road of this Gyeongju Mansion, from time to time, there were men with full faces and uniform clothes, walking fiercely, looking around.

Lu Ran glanced at this person with some curiosity, and there were already people whispering next to him.

"These Rainbow Gang guys are really excessive......"

"Shh......h Don't blame them, wasn't Sang sama angry yesterday? Moreover, it is said that among those bow-wielding warriors who were caught, none of them were the ones who shot arrows at Sang Daren!"

"These people also don't know whether they live or die, and they dare to provoke Lord Sang!"

Listening to the words of these people in Gyeongju Mansion, Lu Ran probably understood what was going on, of course, Lu Ran didn't care much about these people's talk that they didn't know whether they were alive or dead.

Soon, Lu Ran arrived in front of the first store.

This is a cloth village located in the bustling area of Gyeongju Province, and from the outside, you can see people coming in and out from time to time, and people come and go.

As soon as Lu Ran entered inside, he found that this shop with a small area was very lively, and it looked like the business was excellent.

A little guy greeted him with an eager face: "Guest officer, what do you need!"

"Is the shopkeeper there?" Lu Ran had a slight smile on his face.

The little guy in this store was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Guest officer, you are ......"

Lu Ran said lightly: "My surname is Lu, and I am the landlord here. ”

"Oh, okay, okay, let's go and call the shopkeeper out!" the little guy had a smile on his face and hurried to the back of the shop.

After a while, a middle-aged man with a slightly rickety waist and a little fat looked hurriedly came out of the room.

"You look so young, it's Young Master Lu, right?" The middle-aged man's face was full of smiles, "In Xia Tan Jinbao!

Lu Ran nodded, then took out a small booklet, and said lightly: "Shopkeeper Tan, I'm here to collect the rent for the past three years, well, let me take a look, if it's a total of five hundred and thirteen taels of silver, I'll charge you five hundred taels!" According to the Sun and Moon Dynasty, one tael of silver is equivalent to the purchasing power of one thousand yuan in Lu Ran's previous life, and these five hundred taels of silver are equivalent to five hundred thousand.

As soon as he heard this, the smile on Tan Jinbao's face suddenly froze, revealing a little bitterness, and he said helplessly: "Master Lu, this rent ...... It's not that the old man is pretending to be poor, he really can't take it out!"

Hearing this, Lu Ran looked at the almost overwhelming flow of customers in the store, but his eyebrows raised slightly.

Tan Jinbao leaned over, his face was full of bitterness, and said, "Please also invite Lu Gongzi to come in and talk!"

Lu Ran followed Tan Jinbao to the inner room expressionlessly, he wanted to see if this Tan Jinbao could name a flower.

Entering the inner room, An Ning suddenly pointed to the wall on the side and said, "Silver!

Lu Ran's face showed a strange look, and he glanced at the wall that seemed to be a little thicker.

At this time, Tan Jinbao's old face seemed to have swallowed a bitter melon, and he immediately began to pour bitter water: "Lu Gongzi, you are not often in Gyeongju Mansion, you don't know the depth of the water in Gyeongju Mansion! This business is really difficult to do!"

"Not only do I have to pay taxes and silver to the government, but there will also be those Jianghu sects who come to collect various fees every month, don't you know......"

Tan Jinbao's face was sad and chattering.

"But, what does this have to do with your payment of rent?" Lu Ran just looked at Tan Jinbao quietly and asked the key.

"Uh......" Tan Jinbao, who was complaining about "heartfelt", looked slightly stunned, but he didn't expect Lu Ran to react like this, so his whole face was wrinkled, like an old chrysanthemum about to wither, and then he said, "The old man just wants Lu Gongzi to be considerate!"

"Do you know that all the money you have earned over the years has been taken away by the Feihong Gang......!

Lu Ran's expression was very strange: "The Feihong Gang accepts theirs, and I accept mine, is there anything to do with the two?"

Tan Jinbao's heart twitched slightly, and he thought: Does this young man look tender and have such a hard heart?

Tan Jinbao looked at Lu Ran's sturdy body and neat dress again, and thought: Shouldn't this Lu Gongzi be a martial arts practitioner? This kind of teenager should generally yearn for that kind of powerful hero, right?

So, Tan Jinbao squinted his eyes and changed his strategy again, and turned to praise: "Lu Gongzi, what you said is also that paying rent and paying protection money have nothing to do with each other! However, these poor people in our Gyeongju Mansion are not as good as you are, they are extremely strong, and we are bullied by the Feihong Gang...... You don't know, they charge a lot of money, that's not human...... Do you think we don't want to pay you rent?...... How I wish there were teenage heroes like you who could do it for us......"

"You mean, I should be like that ranger, help you recover the silver they collected from the Feihong Gang, and then you happily pay me the rent silver?" Listening to this, Lu Ran couldn't help but laugh out loud, interrupting Tan Jinbao's words, "Do you think you are a fool, or am I a fool?"

Tan Jinbao's face showed a touch of embarrassment, but since he had been stabbed in his mind, and it was useless to sell miserably before, he simply showed his scoundrel face: "Master Lu, I naturally want to pay the rent, but now I really don't have any money!"

"Then you close the store and close the stall! I'll rent the store to someone else!" Lu Ran said lightly.

Tan Jinbao fell silent when he heard this, and after a while, his face showed a little coldness, but he sneered: "Master Lu, since you don't want to talk about it well, then I will make it clear to you: Although this shop is yours, I have paid a protection fee to the Feihong Gang every month, but you can't close it if you say it!"

Seeing that Tan Jinbao was becoming more and more shameless, Lu Ran finally didn't bother to talk to this person anymore, got up suddenly, and stretched out a hand.

Tan Jinbao's face changed: "What, you want to beat someone?"

Lu Ran didn't even pay attention to this person, and punched at the thick wall where An Ning had pointed out that there was silver before.

With just one punch, Lu Ran pierced through the wall and the special iron box inside, and a silver ingot rolled out like this.

Lu Ran casually stretched out his hand and grabbed it in the wall, and a large pile of silver was grabbed by Lu Ran and poured into a large cloth bag, although I don't know how much, but it is definitely far more than five hundred taels.

"The rent is five hundred taels, and the extra is the labor fee for watching you perform for a long time for no reason!" Lu Ran said expressionlessly.

Tan Jinbao wanted to shout, but when he saw the shattered wall and the iron plate that had been pierced by a punch, his teeth chattered, and he didn't dare to say a word.

When Lu Ran passed through the curtain of the inner room, the silver was put into the storage bag by An Ning, and then, Lu Ran left with such a swagger.

Tan Jinbao was stunned for a long time, until the little guy outside found that the wrong probe came in and said, "Palm...... Shopkeeper?"

Tan Jinbao finally came back to his senses, looking at the silver rolling on the ground, he suddenly scolded the little guy angrily: "Who let you in, get out!"

The little guy immediately retracted his head, but Tan Jinbao turned around and hurriedly picked up the silver, and then counted it carefully.

It's just that it didn't take long for Tan Jinbao to howl miserably: "My silver!"

Immediately afterward, the customers and servants in the cloth village all looked at the door of the inner room with blank expressions.

saw Tan Jinbao running out in a hurry, gritted his teeth and said: "Quick, prepare a car for Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu is going to Feihong to help see Brother Tiger!"
