I saw that the man lying on the ground was not very old, he looked to be thirteen or fourteen years old, not tall, but also thin, and the clothes he was wearing were all tattered, if it was exactly what it looked like, but like a little beggar begging for food on the street.

"This is what was found from them, it looks like it's Miss Zhao's!" Barr said as he handed the booklets he was holding to Swallow.

After flipping through it twice, it was really his own booklet, and the swallow threw it on the table casually, looking down at the boy lying on the ground.

"Who gave this thing to you?" Swallow asked in a deep voice.

The boy covered his nose and got up from the ground tremblingly, it seemed that he had been beaten by Bal Tu, and his left eye was a little black and blue, I have to say that Bal Tu was also a heavy man.

The boy stood up, shook his head, and turned to run, but was grabbed by Baltu and pulled back hard.

"Little bunny, you still want to run! Ye is here, you still want to run, you really don't take Ye in your eyes! Bal Tu roared angrily, but Duan Ying and Han Feiyao followed, and the boy also took two steps back in fright, not daring to move.

Han Jingxuan looked at Bal Tu and felt that it was very good, such a posture would really make people scared, the aura on Bal Tu's body was like a gangster on the street, and it was a gangster, the kind that made the gangsters run when they saw it.

The boy sat on the ground and did not move, nor did he speak, but kept his head down and clasped his fingers.

Yanzi took a deep breath, squatted beside him, looked at the boy and asked softly, "Tell me, who gave you these books?" ”

It was quiet, except for the rustle of the leaves in the wind, and everyone looked at the boy, waiting for his answer.

"If you are willing to say it, I will ensure that you will not lack food and clothes to wear in the future!" Swallow spoke out on her terms.

Because it can be clearly seen that this boy is also a little beggar on the street, and he may be pestering the pedestrians on the street every day to ask for copper plates, for them, food and clothing are the most luxurious wishes, and they are also the most desired things.

A little, before the boy could speak, Baltu, who was standing on the side, couldn't wait, and said in a deep voice: "If you don't say it, then beat it up, beat it until you say it!" ”

He was about to step forward, but he was stopped by Yanzi, who raised his head and motioned him to step back.

Looking at Bal Tu's appearance, Han Jingxuan also understood why the Golden Boy Palace wanted to let Bal Tu go over to be a trainer, in it, disobedient is to fight until obedience, admonishment, listening to it is admonition, to put it bluntly, it is also tamed behind the scenes, so that the previous killers have become their tools.

After a while, the swallow waited silently for the boy to speak, and finally, the boy slowly raised his head and looked at the swallow, his eyes were a little lifeless, not a little lifeless.

"Is what you just said true? You promise that I will not lack food to eat and clothes to wear! The boy's voice was hoarse, like a dead tree branch in winter.

Yanzi nodded, looked at his eyes, and said seriously: "Promise, really, if you tell me what you know, I will guarantee that you will be well fed and clothed in the future!" ”

The swallow's eyes were dark and spiritual, and when he looked at the boy, it seemed that the sunlight was injected into the boy's body little by little, bringing him warmth.

The boy pursed his chapped mouth and said lightly: "This is given to me by a man in gray cloth, saying that as long as I sell all these books, if I sell one of them, I can get two cents from them, and the more I sell, the more money I get!" ”

Subsequently, Duan Ying also spoke: "I heard this morning that most of the people who sell books are the little beggars on the street before, and they all sell books like crazy, and they have also sold a lot!" ”

"Do you remember what this man looked like? Or where do you think this person will appear? Swallow asked.

The boy thought for a moment, shook his head, but also said: "This person seems to be a small servant in a big family in the capital, it looks really similar, but I don't know which one it is!" ”

I saw that Han Jingxuan also walked over, squatted down and asked the boy in a deep voice: "Then if you take two cents from it, who will you give the rest of the money you earn, and you can't deliver it to them?" ”

The boy turned his head to look at Han Jingxuan, a little because Bal Tu was his entourage's subordinate, the boy was also a little scared when he saw Han Jingxuan, avoided Han Jingxuan's eyes looking at him, lowered his head and said timidly: "He said, just take your money away and put it under the bricks on the street of Xizhao Street!" ”

We all know that the place on the street of Xizhao Street is the corner tower, which is the most lively place, so many people come and go, and put things there, it is the most inconspicuous place, after all, as the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest place.

"Then wait, wait until the evening to see who is doing the trick in the middle!" Swallow said in a deep voice.

After all the manuscripts were stolen, Old Man Xiao had already sent someone to report to the official, whether it was useful or not, at this time, it was still necessary to let the officers and soldiers deal with it, otherwise, it would be like Bal Tu, and the reasonable would become unreasonable.

The scholars outside also hurried over, saying that many people were now clamoring for a refund.

The swallow stood up, took a heavy breath, and strode towards the front yard.

At the door of Baiwenzhai, many people have come around, all clamoring to return the money, too, because there are indeed a lot of people who pay the money, and it is reasonable for them to come over to ask for money when this happened today, and Yanzi also understands.

"Everyone, your money must be returned, what happened to this book today, we Baiwenzhai did not deal with it well, and did not prepare in advance, so that the big guys suffered a loss, and today we Baiwenzhai will definitely pay everyone the original amount!" The swallow stood in front of the door, raised her voice, and spoke loudly to the people around her.

Then, the scholar took out the previous account book, asked everyone to line up, and returned the money one by one according to the above records.

In the backyard, the swallow sat on the rock, thinking of a way, but the money that had not yet warmed up was gone.

In fact, the most important thing is not money, but the reputation of Baiwenzhai will also be damaged.

Old man Xiao saw the swallow sitting there, but he walked up, handed a piece of jujube cake to the swallow, and comforted softly: "It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided!" ”
