Chapter 0379 - Chen Family Wine Shop (I)
A well-dressed young man, followed by a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl in a fancy costume, and a servant in a military robe, the three mermaids walked into an alley, and after a short time they walked out together.
Tang Yuan took Meng Tao and Zhang Ga back to their hometown, and walked out of the dirty alley of Tongjifang, he really withdrew the bounty for tracking down the real murderer of Lin Qiao'er.
There was nothing to say on the way, but I just bought a sachet and purse for Meng Tao, which was not expensive, but the little girl accepted it with a smile.
When he returned home and went directly to the warehouse of the third courtyard, Meng Tao took out the key, opened the door, and the three of them walked in together.
"Look for Cao Feihu and give him all this silver." Tang Yuan said to Meng Tao.
"Brother Xiaofeng, all this money is given to him, is it too much?" Meng Tao hesitated.
"Not much."
Tang Yuan said a word, raised his eyes and looked at Meng Tao, the latter was a little reluctant, in fact, Meng Tao and Tang Xiaomi, the two little girls are not easy, there are more than 100 people living in Tang Mansion now, there are many houses, and they must be repaired frequently, of course, the cost is not small, but Tang Yuan does not have a high salary, and what is even worse is that Tang Yuan does not have more industries to support this family, which seems to lack of heritage.
Although there are two storefronts at the door, the market fluctuates, and sometimes it is not profitable, so that the two little butlers often feel overstretched.
Although the two girls did not complain in front of Tang Yuan, Tang Yuan had read the account book and saw some clues from the subtleties, knowing that Meng Tao was reluctant to give up the money, Tang Yuan reached out and patted the table lightly and said: "If the money is less, it will make this righteous brother say that I have no feelings for Qiao'er, and that I am ruthless and unjust." And I really want to avenge Qiao'er in my heart, and I don't want others to see me like this. β
"Okay then." Meng Tao said, went out, and arranged for someone to go to the Jianghu Tavern to contact Cao Feihu.
ββ
Ji Yifa walked quickly to Nanshi with ten people, found the Quanfu store, went around to the back, and sure enough, he saw a tavern.
There is a sign at the door of the tavern, the word "Jianghu" is written on it, and those who generally dare to stand this sign are two that have some connection, mostly a snake head is established, and the Fang Department will generally not come to find trouble here, if you come to find it, it is also mostly to fight the autumn wind, but it will not come here to arrest people.
This is actually a deliberate hand left by the government, usually it seems to have the intention of shielding criminals, but in fact, it is leaving a way back for himself, once the peak is in a hurry, asking for speed, these Jianghu taverns, and the people here, have become his lifesaver.
Sometimes, officials and bandits are really a family, so it is difficult to clean up officials, not for no reason, because they can't do it together.
"Four at the front door, four at the back door, and the remaining two follow me." Ji Yifa held a sword in his hand, and his face was grim.
"Yes!" The crowd went ahead and proceeded. They are all good hands of the secret Jinwei, and their actions are like the wind, no problem.
There were only two people left around, and Ji Yifa said: "After entering, look at my eyes, let's try not to fight with him, persuading him to take refuge in the Queen Mother is the first, persuading him to go is the second, if you don't agree, it's not too late to do it." In short, we can't let him defect to the emperor, otherwise our jobs will be completely ruined. β
Although Ji Yifa is also a nine-rank swordsman, for some reason, everyone feels that he is a little empty as a nine-rank swordsman, and they have not heard of any glorious achievements in him, and in the fight with other nine-rank swordsmen and assassins, he seems to have never defeated anyone.
This time, the people who came to meet the pinnacle of the Jiupin swordsman, the people who came with him were not very confident in their hearts, and even complained about Ji Yifa, why didn't he notify the old mink temple to plow Wantang. Although the old mink temple is not young, but he has experienced countless vicious battles in his life, when he was still in the late stage of the eighth grade, he smashed the nine-rank assassin Hong Chengkui Tianling cover with his bare hands with a move "Flying Eagle Claw", and became famous in a battle. That is, since then, there has never been a shortage of old mink temples around Empress Dowager Cao. If Liwantang goes out to do business, the Queen Mother will not go anywhere, and even Cining Palace is unwilling to leave.
Ji Yifa walked into the tavern, and the originally lively small shop suddenly became silent, because there are few officials here, and today this is still a military attachΓ©, is he coming here to arrest people?
Ji Yi's face was cold, his eyes swept around, and said, "Don't worry, I'm not here to arrest people, the shopkeeper comes here, I have something to ask you." β
Although he said so, there were still a few tables of guests who raised their legs and left, casting a bad eye on the shopkeeper, since the shopkeeper here could not give early warning, then this restaurant would not come in the future.
Seeing that the business was being disturbed, the shopkeeper felt distressed, but he didn't dare to yell at Ji Yifa, so he hurriedly ran over and greeted: "Master, which yamen are you from, we suddenly came to us?" β
"Where's the wolf's fang?"
"Wolf fangs?" The shopkeeper trembled: "Dare to ask this master, who told you the news?" β
The shopkeeper suddenly stood up straight, and asked Ji Yifa with a generous and fearless expression, as if he was expressing his position, if you don't say it, then I won't say it either.
Ji Yifa sneered, his wrist shook, the sound of the tension spring did not fall, and the sword that stretched out half a foot was already on the neck of the shopkeeper.
In fact, as long as the shopkeeper steps backwards, he can pull out the sword with his backhand and take it away, but as a Jiupin swordsman, Ji Yifa is still sure that he is faster than the other party.
The shopkeeper didn't have the idea of snatching the sword, but stretched out two fingers, put them on the scabbard, pushed outward, and said, "Since Your Excellency can avoid the Fang Department and come to me directly, you must be not low." You can know the news of the wolf's fang, it is by no means idle, but there are not many people who know the identity of the wolf's tooth, and know that he came to me, even if you don't tell it, I can find out who leaked the news. β
"Even if you find out, what else can you do?" Ji Yi said coldly.
"Every industry has its own rules, and we will do things according to the rules. He should be killed and scraped, and he should bear the consequences. The shopkeeper said.
Ji Yifa withdrew his sword: "I'll give you another chance, if you don't say it, I'll make your life worse than death." β
"Hehe, I believe you can do it, but you should also believe that I can do it at any time and die on my own initiative without being sinned." The shopkeeper sneered.
looked at the shopkeeper, but at the age of thirty-five or sixteen, he was already an old man, and when dealing with this kind of person, he couldn't be hard, Ji Yifa smiled and said: "Since you are so disciplined, then let's do things according to the rules." Let's open the conditions. β
"I'm sorry for this lord, I can't make any conditions about the wolf's teeth, as long as I say it, I won't survive tonight." The shopkeeper's restrained and proud expression said in a tone of the rivers and lakes.
Ji Yifa said: "If I send the secret Jinwei to protect you, won't I survive tonight?" β
"Secret Jinwei?" The shopkeeper was shocked.
"Haven't you heard?" Ji asked in a horizontal voice.
"Oh, of course I've heard of it." The shopkeeper immediately bowed his head.
Suddenly, the door opened.
