Chapter 159: In the Mist

In fact, that half of the street, it is very important to say that it is important, and it is the same thing to say that it is not important, it is nothing more than an income of about fifty taels a month. But the problem lies in the chain of contempt – the gangs in the city will never let the "outsiders" outside the city get their hands on it.

So those in charge really want to negotiate well. After all, this is Laizhou City, not Jingjiazhuang. If there is a big fight, or if there is any accidental injury, in case of the anger of the government, then no one can afford to have such a big stake.

And Gu Zhao and these people in the yamen are the same, they don't want to make trouble out of control. However, none of them expected that Tao Qiulun and Qin Bai would pinch each other as soon as they met, as if they were born to be incompatible.

Tao Qiulun also slowly calmed down. He had realized that if he continued, he might be angry. In fact, just now he just wanted to give Qin Bai a dismissal, so that he could understand who had the final say in Laizhou City. According to the general script, if Qin Bai lowered his head, Tao Qiulun would also sell face. However, he never expected that Qin Bai would actually flip the table on the spot, leaving no face for himself at all.

Thinking of this, Tao Qiulun secretly looked at Qin Bai. He was ruthless in his heart, and sooner or later he would find this scene again.

The silver bell behind the bead curtain covered her mouth in surprise, but she didn't expect the situation to be reversed all of a sudden, so she looked at Qin Bai curiously through the bead curtain.

And when Qin Bai heard Gu Zhaohe's words, he also got off the donkey and returned to his seat. A big man with tattoos on his arms on the opposite side smiled: "Long Yang, Bai Er." I'm Shui Nan on Flower Hat Street, just down the street from you. Give me half of the street, and I will accept the love of the white brothers. If anything happens in the future, brother, I promise that it is incumbent. ”

"Nan Ye! Who doesn't speak empty vernacular? Qin Bai smiled, "That half of the street can be given to you, and you can take out a thousand taels?" ”

"Bai Er, aren't you afraid of dying? You mix your Jingjiazhuang, we go to our Laizhou City, the well water does not violate the river water, do you really want to fish across the line? ”

"Fishing out of bounds? That's good, huh? I'll give you the bosses a thousand taels to buy this half of the street, so that you don't break the rules, right? ”

Shui Nan frowned, for the people of the rivers and lakes, sometimes it is not a matter of money, but a matter of setting a precedent for Yongsheng to enter the city. Moreover, most of these leaders here today are strong and powerful, and the real benefits can only be obtained by themselves. Therefore, there must be compensation after the fact, and these people cannot be allowed to run in vain. If you spend too much money, Shui Nan feels that it is not worth it. So he leaned back in his chair, hugged his arms and said, "Bai Er, you are such a lion with a big mouth, do you sincerely don't want to talk?" ”

"I'm insincere? Am I not sincere enough to come and talk? Qin Bai was still smiling on his face, "Master Nan, then tell me, what price are you willing to pay?" ”

“……”

Qin Bai smoothly introduced the negotiation into his own orbit. According to his thoughts, what followed was nothing more than bargaining, a question of more money and less money. Sure enough, Shui Nan finally agreed to buy the half of the street for 350 taels and pay it off on the spot, and Yongsheng also promised to retreat all of them outside the city.

It was not worth the trip, and the scene immediately became enjoyable. Refusing to be retained by those in charge, Qin Bai rushed back to Jingjiazhuang overnight. Finally solved a trouble, and Qin Bai could be regarded as letting go of a concern. There are many things in Jingjiazhuang, and there are still many things to deal with by yourself.

However, the next day, the monk suddenly sent someone to deliver an urgent letter, and several of them were assassinated that night, and Big Eye, Kuroko and others died, and the monk was lucky to escape this catastrophe. The Assassin died or fled, without revealing who the enemy was. This brought Qin Bai into the fog.

……

"Who do you think did it?"

"It must be Tao Qiulun's old immortal."

"It's completely impossible. We have already negotiated, 350 taels is not much, and we will not go to war for this silver. And I heard that more than 20 assassins came, what was the use of killing the monks? It's better to ambush Second Brother Bai on the way back. ”

"And who else do you say?"

"If I say something that I don't like, anyone can possibly, Second Brother Bai has offended too many people."

"What then? Are they all going to fight? ”

"If you don't fight, you can't do it? If we don't retaliate, what will outsiders think? ”

“……”

Qin Bai was dizzy from the noise, and after thinking about it, he finally made a decision: "We have two responses: one is to pick a random person and say that he assassinated him." And this person needs to be weighty enough to be able to scare other people. Tao Qiulun is very good, whether he is wronged or not, just say that he did it. However, he must have taken precautions, and he is hiding in Laizhou City, so it will be more difficult for us to retaliate; The other is to shrink up and wait for their next shot. Find your target and retaliate. ”

"Big boss." Cao Dacai asked, "Then which one do you choose?" ”

"Or shrink! In any case, we must also protect ourselves first. Don't mess with yourself at this time. And there is a possibility that the one who did it is waiting for our revenge and provoking us to fight with others. ”

Everyone nodded, Qin Bai's guess was very likely, and they had to guard against it. And Qin Bai continued to instruct: "Send someone to Laizhou City to ask first, and let those people in the city give a satisfactory answer." In particular, we want to release the news and let them know that we are already suspicious of Tao Qiulun. There is also to ask the monks to be careful and ensure their safety first. If you find out that something is wrong, you will leave the territory alone for the time being and hide in our Jingjiazhuang. ”

……

At the same time, in an inn in Laizhou City, a middle-aged businessman was reprimanding several Jianghu people: "What are you doing? Let you go and catch Bai Er, but in the end something like this happened? Do you know how to scare snakes? Will there be such a good opportunity in the future? ”

A Jianghu man looked aggrieved: "Can we blame our brothers for this?" What kind of message are you gaving? also said that Bai Er would stay for one night, but Bai Er was not there at all, he would have already returned to Jingjiazhuang. ”

"Then you can't inquire beforehand? The news I bought said that Bai Er went to Baihualou, so why did he have to find a girl to accompany him to drink. If you don't stay with the monk that night, where else can you go? ”

"Don't talk about it, Master Li, our brother also suffered heavy losses this time. When will you pay the rest of your money? ”

"Still want money? Do you know if you've made a big mistake? Bai Er has been hiding in Jingjiazhuang and never leaving his nest at all. I don't know when I have such a good opportunity next time. Okay, okay, this time the money can be given to you. But there's one more thing you have to do......"

An unexpected businessman, an unexpected adventure, was just to catch Qin Bai and wanted to get the recipe for the match. However, such a failed move was like throwing a spark into the already boiling hot oil, and the situation suddenly became completely out of control......
