"I'm a catcher?"

Leng Youxue's beautiful eyes flashed with doubt, and she tilted her head to stare at Yan Qi: "Could it be that you really have a way to catch the remnants of the lotus flower?" ”

Yan Qi nodded: "Don't worry, believe in Brother Qi, and get eternal life." ”

"Whew!"

Leng Youxue took a sip, and she was also excited: "Then tell me quickly, where is the remnant of the lotus flower hidden." ”

"I don't know."

"You don't know you're going to have a fart for eternity?"

"I don't know, but someone does."

Yan Qi walked proudly towards a beggar around the corner.

The beggar was dressed in rags, nibbling on steamed buns and smoking dry tobacco. The appearance of swallowing clouds and spitting fog is particularly fantastic.

"Mao Eighteen, do you want to drink?"

This beggar is called Mao Eighteen.

Yan Qi was not in a hurry to find the remnants of the lotus, but greeted Mao Eighteen leisurely.

When Mao 18 saw Yan Qi, he immediately became excited: "Isn't this Yan Gongzi, my rich man!" Truth be told, I do want to drink, but I don't have the money. ”

Leng Youxue secretly pulled Yan Qi's shirt and whispered, "Hey, I said, aren't you looking for the Lotus Remnant?" What are you talking about, let's get down to business. ”

Yan Qi smiled: "Am I not doing serious business?" ”

Leng Youxue was stunned.

Now that your eyebrows are burning, you don't go to find the remnants of the lotus, but you come to talk to the beggar, and say that you are doing serious business?

Brain show funny, right?

Yan Qi squatted on the ground and chatted with Mao Eighteen.

"Mao Eighteen, it's easy to drink, I have a big job, it's very challenging, it depends on your ability."

Mao 18 asked, "How much work?" The price can't be low. ”

Yan Qi smiled and took out a stack of silver tickets: "This is one thousand taels, after the matter is completed, I will give you another one thousand taels." ”

"So much?"

Mao Shiba's eyes were full of smiles: "I took this job, let's say, what do you want me to do?" The beggars help thousands of disciples, in addition to making . On the contrary, there is nothing that cannot be done. ”

"Very good, I just like your confidence in the fascination!"

Yan Qi clapped his hands, took out the painted portrait of Ping'er, and said to Mao Shiba: "You squat at the gate of the Lin Mansion every day, peeping at the young woman, do you know this Ping'er?" ”

"Yes, this young woman is not a thing! Every time I asked her for money, she didn't give it to me, and she scolded me for being a stinky beggar and saying that I was spying on her. Yan Gongzi, you say, just Ping'er looks like a crooked melon and cracked dates, how can I be in the mood to peep at her? Phew. ”

Mao Eighteen was very depressed, and he kept thinking about it.

Yan Qi said: "I just want to find this person, within one hour, be sure to find her whereabouts, after finding it, come and tell me immediately, I will add a thousand taels on the spot." ”

"Well, it's too easy."

After listening to Yan Qi's task, Mao Eighteen didn't frown, and ran outside barefoot.

Then, around the corner gathered a group of beggars.

Mao Eighteen said a few words, and a group of beggars dispersed in a hurry.

There is a pavilion around the corner.

Yan Qi walked over and sat in the pavilion, leisurely crossed Erlang's legs, half-squinted, and beckoned to Leng Youxue: "Come on, all we have to do now is wait, and then, enjoy the world of the two." ”

Leng Youxue was very anxious and asked Yan Qi: "Can this work?" You actually entrusted such an important task to a beggar. ”

"Wrong!"

Yan Qi immediately corrected Leng Youxue: "It's not to give it to a beggar, but to three thousand seven hundred beggars in Jinling." ”

Leng Youxue suddenly came to her senses: "Are you using the beggar gang to find someone?" ”

"How do you call exploitation? This is called win-win cooperation, I give him money, he helps me find people, everyone takes what they need, the best of both worlds. ”

Yan Qi smiled all over his face: "Xiaoxue, don't talk about you, you have to use your brain to catch heads, you see, your few catchers can search for the remnants of the lotus, how effective can they be, and they lack skills." ”

"But, if you leave this matter to the beggars, it's easy, what do the beggars do? It was a special contact with the three religions and nine streams, all kinds of people, etc., and they knew everything. For example, which eldest lady gives birth to a child, which son-in-law marries an eighteen-room concubine, whose mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are not in harmony, whose family is cheating, whose young lady elopes, these lace news, there is no beggar gang that does not know. ”

"Moreover, the most important thing is to spend less money, do big things, and be economical, I often collect news from the beggars, for example, which restaurant has delicious food, where is the wine delicious, what big news is there in Jinling today, just these things, five copper plates can be done."

"So amazing?"

Leng Youxue was blown a little mysterious by Yan Qi, but she didn't expect the beggar gang to be so powerful.

Yan Qidao: "It's so powerful, the information network of the beggar gang is unsurpassed, you see the gate of the Lin Mansion, after going out, there are eight passages, each passage has the beggar gang of beggars pressing the formation, and then, infinitely branching down, you will find that the army of the beggar gang is everywhere." ”

was reminded by Yan Qi like this, Leng Youxue was also very surprised: "That's right, when you say this, I also recall that the people of the beggar gang are really everywhere." ”

Yan Qidao: "The essence of the beggar gang is that they are information dealers, and they make money from this, otherwise, Jinling is so prosperous, but anyone who does something can earn living expenses, so why bother to beg to be a beggar?" People are actually very rich. ”

Leng Youxue's beautiful eyes widened, with a thick shock.

She really didn't expect Yan Qi to know so much news, and those clear eyes could see through so many things.

"Yan Qi, how can you know so much?"

Yan Qidao: "The insight of the world is all knowledge!" Again: insight into human nature is the ultimate means, more important than any skill. ”

"Reading is a skill, practicing martial arts is also a skill, and being an official is also a skill, but in the face of human nature, you have to bow down."

Leng Youxue seemed to have an understanding, glanced at Yan Qi, and said angrily: "So, just because you have insight into human nature, you can casually bully me as a small family leader?" ”

"What do you say?"

Yan Qi laughed: "I'm not bullying you, I care about you, let's help each other and make progress together." ”

In a flash, an hour passed.

Leng Youxue was anxious: "Why is there no news yet, could it be that even the beggar gang has not found the news of the remnants of the lotus?" ”

Yan Qi was indifferent: "Impossible, for the sake of those two thousand taels of silver, even if the beggars dig three feet of soil, they will find Ping'er's whereabouts." ”

"Yan Gongzi, Yan Gongzi, there is news, there is news."

There were shouts of excitement outside.

Mao Eighteen ran in barefoot and panting.

Leng Youxue was overjoyed: "You really found it?" ”

Mao Shibai gasped: "Our beggar gang mobilized all the disciples to find Ping'er's whereabouts, originally thought that there would be news in half an hour, but it was not so easy. ”

"This Ping'er is very treacherous, after leaving the Lin Mansion, he actually went around Jinling City in a few circles, and in the end, guess where Ping'er went, and never came out again?"

Yan Qi asked, "Where?" ”

Mao 18 pointed to the street opposite: "It's right there, the most luxurious restaurant in Jinling, Fumanlou." ”

Yan Qi and Leng Youxue were stunned: How could it be so close?

Incredible!
