Volume 1 Bead Curtain Twilight Rolling West Mountain Rain Chapter 149 Nine Ages Return
For the first business in the past six months, Yijitang attaches great importance to it, and arranges a killer lineup that can never be hired for four hundred taels of silver, and the strength of this discount is really unprecedented.
A first-class second-class killer, four second-class second-class killers, if it is placed in the best business, a second-class second-class killer will also charge a hundred taels of silver, per person.
So judging from this price, the lineup arranged by Yijitang is indeed very luxurious, and the price of four hundred taels of silver, that is, just to buy four second-class second-class, so calculated, the second-class master of the first class is a gift.
Think about it, if you buy four oranges, they will give you a durian, how much you can earn.
The five people who received the task, according to the convention, should first follow up the target task for a period of time, and start at the safest time.
Before that, the people in the distribution hall had already checked the general information and distributed it to each person, one for each person.
"It's not funny."
Wang Chengxu, one of the four second-class killers, looked at his companion next to him, and he pointed to what was recorded in the file.
"I just found out the news sent over, this Li Qi is very complicated, the best person with him is Xiahou Zhuo, Xiahou Zhuo is the son of Prince Yu, this alone will make a loss of four hundred taels of business."
The first-class second-class killer was named Feng Wuliu, nodded and said: "Indeed, the son that Prince Yu cares about the most is Xiahou Zhuo, and Xiahou Zhuo's best brother is Li Qi. ”
The other three people, one is called Li Genda, one is called Liu Yingwu, and the other is called Zhang Tailai, they are all quite familiar with each other, especially the killers within a level, at least they have met.
In the past, when business was hot, they couldn't see each other most of the time, but in the north, under the rule of Youzhou, Jizhou, such a large area, so much business, it was common for them not to see each other once a year.
But now it's different, business is too difficult now, and no one has to look down on anyone, they haven't taken an order for half a year.
So in the past few months, in order to save money, everyone has eaten and lived in their own hall, after all, they said that they should eat and live.
These pretentious killers never thought that one day, as a member of their own family, they would have to calculate because of such trivial things, which is really a bit embarrassing......
Mr. Yu is right, although these people are begging for a living with a knife and killing people for a living, it is not easy to make money, and they will die if they are not careful, but they spend money lavishly, and no one has the habit of saving money.
Of course, Yao Wuxian is a special case, he likes to make money but he doesn't like to spend money, except for necessary expenses, he won't spend a copper penny.
Others, perhaps feel that such a day may not be their own life one day, so they can enjoy a day is a day, lavish and comfortable, and some people even have a room in the Qinglou to live in, and the expenses are like running water.
Zhang Tailai is the oldest of the five people, and he has been engaged in the killer profession for the longest time, but his martial arts are indeed not very brilliant, but he has a mind and experience far beyond others.
He's the one who is the best at turning murder into an accident, which is what he's most proud of, but ...... He can only target general goals, because if the target is a big man and there are many guards when traveling, it will be difficult for him to implement that set.
"Let's bear with me, in this world, it's good to have money to make."
Mrs. Zhang said: "The old rule, explore the road first, find out the living habits, route, work and rest of the target person, and then find an opportunity to do it." ”
Li Genda was the youngest of the five people, but his martial arts far surpassed Mrs. Zhang, he looked at Mrs. Zhang and said, "Otherwise, Brother Zhang and I will go first, observe for two or three days, and determine the time to do it, and then we will go and do the work together." ”
Feng Wuliu, a first-class second-class killer, said lightly: "Just the four of you go and find out, tell me the time, place, and method of doing it, and I'll finish off the people." ”
After saying that, he left.
Li Genda waited for him to leave and said angrily: "What's the big deal, isn't it just that you are worth more?" ”
Zhang Tailai pulled him and said, "Don't pay attention to this, with your skills, you will definitely be able to enter the Jiazi department in the future, and you will be the same when the time comes." ”
Li Gendao: "I'm definitely different from this kind of person, how should I get along with our brothers or how to get along with each other at that time, I will definitely not be so sour like him." ”
The four of them smiled, this is the chain of contempt.
The high-level can despise the low-level in the open, and the low-level can despise the high-level in secret.
"Division of labor and cooperation."
Zhang Tailai said: "I am in a group with Li Gen, we are staring at the daytime, Liu Yingwu and Wang Chengxu, you two are staring at the night, tentatively for three days, and everything about the target Li Qi will be found out within three days." ”
"Okay!"
The remaining three people nodded at the same time, and Li Gen said: "Anyway, it's the word A that people do, let's just do what we need to do, people are angry." ”
At the same time, the gate of Jizhou City.
A young man who seemed to have come from a long way, dusty, was stopped by the soldiers guarding the city from the military general's mansion when he entered the city, and although he had a road guide certificate on his body, he just refused to let him in.
The young man was troubled for a while, but at last he reacted enough, and took out some broken silver and copper coins from his money bag, and stuffed them all into the chief who was guarding the door.
"It took a lot of money all the way home, and that's all."
He handed over the money bag, and when he looked at it, it was about two or three taels of silver, and his face immediately became happy after reading it.
"Search, just let it in if it's okay."
He waved his hand.
A few soldiers came to search the young man, up and down carefully, firstly, because something had happened before, and their companions had put in a group of mountain bandits, and something had happened, and secondly, they wanted to see if they could find some silver.
The military commander was furious and ordered severe punishment, and the soldiers who guarded the gate that day were beaten almost out of human form, and then thrown directly out of the barracks, life and death were up to the sky.
The commander of the military garrison looked at the young man and said, "Don't blame us for investigating strictly, something big happened a while ago, and our General Jiang was furious." ”
The young man suddenly burst out laughing, and he didn't know why.
After the search, there was no problem, and the person was put into the city, he was not from Jizhou City, and the identity certificate he was carrying was certainly not fake, it was an identity obtained through the back door.
When he left Jizhou City, Li Didiu asked Xiahou Zhuo to help get it, and the young man was called Yu Jiuling.
After entering the city, he found the Four Pages Academy all the way, but when he arrived, he learned that the academy had taken annual leave, and it was not easy for him to find Xiahou Zhuo and Li Qi.
Leaving the gate of the academy, he ran to a place where no one was, took off his pants, and took out another money bag from a hidden place, saying in his heart that it was good that I was clever, and if I put all the silver on the surface, it might have been searched.
He took the money bag out and sniffed it, then snorted to himself.
The taste is a little heavy.
Taking a piece of broken silver from his money bag, he ran back to the gate of the academy and handed it to the gatekeeper of the academy.
"Big brother, you help, I'm a good friend of Li Qi, I really have something important to look for him, by the way, it was Prince Xiahou who arranged for me to go to the capital, I only know that I came to the academy to look for them, and the matter is urgent, I can't wait for them to come back from annual leave."
The gatekeeper took the silver and shook it for a moment: "Your silver is quite hot." ”
Yu Jiuling said: "In this cold winter, aren't I afraid of cold brother's hands?" ”
The gatekeeper put away the money and said, "In this way, you first find a place to live, come here tomorrow morning and wait, Li Gongzi will go back to the academy every day before noon, you should be able to meet him, where his family lives, I really don't know." ”
"Thank you, thank you!"
Yu Jiuling hurriedly thanked him, and then looked back, there was a noodle restaurant not far from the academy, he came back in the dust, he didn't eat breakfast or lunch, his chest was already hungry, and he trotted all the way into the noodle shop with the package on his back.
Two bowls of noodles were in the stomach, the body was warm, the chill was dispelled, and the tired energy also came up.
He thought about finding a cheaper inn to stay in for one night, and then came to this kind of people early tomorrow morning, before he came out of the noodle restaurant, and saw Xiahou Zhuo sneaking out of the academy from a distance, with a withered hairy grass in his mouth, still looking like a hanger.
As soon as he saw Xiahou Zhuo, Yu Jiuling's face was excited, and he ran to Xiahou Zhuo in one breath, and he didn't even care that the gatekeeper deceived him.
He panted and shouted: "Prince Xiahou! ”
This sudden appearance startled Xiahou Zhuo, and shrank back: "Where did the monkey come from?" ”
Yu Jiuling pointed to his face: "I, it's me, Prince Xiahou, Yu Jiuling!" ”
Xiahou Zhuo came to his senses at this time, he had accepted a younger brother more than half a year ago, he looked at the soil on Yu Jiuling's body, and laughed.
"If you shake the dirt on your body, you can pave the road at the entrance of the academy again."
Yu Jiuling smiled and said, "I'm in a hurry to come back, I haven't changed my clothes for a few days." ”
Xiahou Zhuo said: "Let's go, I'll take you to a bathhouse to wash first." ”
Yu Jiuling asked, "What about Li Qi and Li Gongzi?" ”
Xiahou Zhuo said: "He should be in Yunzhai Teahouse at this time, I'll take you to wash it first, you are really ...... It's hard to say, take a shower and change clothes, I'll take you to Yunzhai Teahouse to find him. ”
Yu Jiuling answered and followed Xiahou Zhuo to the bathhouse.
When he arrived at the place, Xiahou Zhuo greeted the familiar guys: "Arrange a good master for him to take a bath, don't arrange a novice apprentice, the novice can't take this job." ”
The guy hurriedly answered and beckoned a bath master to come out, and the bath master looked at Yu Jiuling's body, and the toothpick in his mouth fell off.
"It's ...... That's a lot of work. ”
It took nearly an hour for Yu Jiuling to come out of the bathhouse, and Xiahou Zhuo slept on the recliner outside, and when he saw this spirited young man, Xiahou Zhuo smiled and said: "This is what it looks like."
Then I saw the bathing master holding the door frame panting, sweating tiredly, and said while gasping: "Don't arrange work for me today, this job is really tired, I want to rest for a while." ”
Yu Jiuling smiled embarrassedly: "Indeed...... It's hard to put into words. ”
When the two of them arrived at the Yunzhai Teahouse, it happened that Li Diudiu was almost over, and when they saw Yu Jiuling, Li Diudiu smiled and waved his hand.
Mrs. Sun saw Li Diudiu's expression, and said to a few ladies around her: "My child is his godfather, why don't you see a girl smiling so brightly?" ”
A young woman nodded vigorously and said, "Yes, every time Xiahou Gongzi comes, he smiles brightly, and here is another beautiful little brother, and he is brilliant again." ”
