Profit is the bait, and greed pushes the fish to take the bait.

A large number of antiques and jade brought back to Beijing from Xuanfu are all treasures, so Cao Wei is not afraid that the other party will not take the bait, and now the bait is still there, and there are more than 200,000 taels of silver.

It's just that the smell of urine spoils the atmosphere a little......

Cao Wei covered his mouth and nose, frowned, and said, "Lai San, you fell into the dung pit!" ”

Lai San sat on the ground, crying and said with a sad face: "It's over, the new clothes that my mother-in-law just made for me at home, I have not been wearing them for a few days, and I can't sleep in bed tonight......"

Cao Wei picked up a silver ticket and handed it to Lai Sandao: "You are a work injury, the official can't ignore it, go back and explain to your mother-in-law, with this silver ticket as the base, presumably your mother-in-law will be lighter." ”

It's better not to say these comforting words, Lai San's face became even more bitter, and he arched his hand to Cao Wei and got up to leave.

"My lord, what should I do next?"

Cao Wei smiled and said: "Qian Ning, you have earned so much silver this time, you have made great contributions, you deserve a heavy reward, there are a total of 240,000 and 900 taels of silver here, so I will reward you with the change......

Qian Ning was overjoyed, for the first time, he felt that the boss was so generous, a fraction of 240,000 and 900 taels was 40,000 and 900 taels of silver, and it was more than enough to change a big house for the family. I used to always scold the boss behind my back, but now I think about it, it's really undeserved.

He knelt down on one knee and said, "My lord, you are really a subordinate reborn parent......

"Don't be so polite, come, this is the nine hundred taels of silver that your parents gave you, save some flowers, after all, your parents don't have a lot of money...... Hey, why are your eye circles red? ”

I thought that Shangguan was generous, but it turned out that he was just thinking too much, and Qian Ning decided to use the darkest mind to speculate on Shangguan's words and deeds in the future.

Accepting the silver ticket, Qian Ning sighed and said: "My lord, you are right, surprises are common, but more often there are only surprises and no joy!" It's getting late, and my subordinates are retiring......"

"Wait! The matter is not finished yet, the official wants to break Zhu Zhen's leg, do you have any good ways? ”

Qian Ning pondered for a moment and said, "My lord, how many legs do you want to break Zhu Zhen?" ”

Cao Wei was stunned for a moment and said: "This old man has a total of three legs, presumably one has been disabled, and there are still two left, so don't leave it for him!" ”

Qian Ning smiled and said, "My lord, just look at it, my subordinates guarantee that he will not be able to stand up from now on......"

Zhu Mansion was bleak at this time, Zhu Zhen was lying on the bed, his face was pale, his eyes were dull, and he looked loveless.

Zhou Yusheng knelt in front of the bed, feeling uneasy, afraid that Zhu Zhen would be angry with him. This is a long-planned scam, Zhou Yusheng wailed in his heart, who would have thought that someone would even dare to deceive the right sect of the Zongren Mansion, it was simply bold.

But that batch of antiques is really good, why don't you pick one out in advance......

"The owner ......" Zhou Yusheng said cautiously: "What we have to do now is to find out the thieves, and those thieves are not particular about it, and the entire Yuhe Building has been emptied, and even the teacups are not left." ”

Zhu Zhen laughed miserably: "This is the fate of the old man, the old man borrowed so much silver from others, and now he has to sell Yuhe Building and several other shops." ”

Zhou Yusheng was shocked and said: "The owner must not be, as long as Yuhelou is still there, we have the possibility of making a comeback, if even Yuhelou is gone, there is no possibility of turning over." Aren't you familiar with those royal relatives, as long as you ask them for some time, you must ......"

Zhu Zhen waved his hand weakly and said: "You don't know this group of people, they are typical of the big smile, losing their position and turning their faces, if they know the old man's current situation, they will immediately come to collect debts." ”

Zhou Yusheng thought that even if the royal family couldn't love each other, at least they could understand each other, but after listening to Zhu Zhen's words, he realized that the royal family was no different from other families, and even slightly inferior.

"The owner, the villain also knows a lot of businessmen in the antique industry, as long as the owner comes forward to set up a banquet and borrow 200,000 taels of silver from them, he can get through the difficulties and make a comeback."

Zhu Zhen groaned in pain, he never thought that his dignified clan relatives would have to ask for help from the despicable businessman, and he would really be ashamed to lose face to his ancestors.

Zhou Yusheng saw Zhu Zhen's appearance, knowing that he was worried about face, and hurriedly persuaded: "The owner, since ancient times, those who have achieved great things have not been informal, and we will be more developed in the future, who can blame us for today's no?" The proprietor also asked to make a quick decision, the current Yuhe Building can not afford to delay. ”

Zhu Zhen gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, just according to what you say!" Yusheng, you are loyal to the old man, the old man will never fail you, if the old man can make a comeback in the future, you should be the first merit, and the old man will find you an official position to repay your kindness. ”

Zhou Yusheng was overjoyed, the reason why he persuaded Zhu Zhen so actively was that he was afraid that Zhu Zhen would not be able to think about it for a while and be angry with him, but now it seems that he has not only survived the catastrophe, but also has unexpected joy. At the thought of being an official, Zhou Yusheng trembled with excitement.

"The owner, the villain is willing to die for you and then ......"

……………………………………………

At noon the next day, he sent someone to inform Zhu Zhen that he had gathered the merchants in the Red Clothes Building.

Zhu Zhen was also very satisfied with the efficiency of his subordinates, and carefully washed up under the service of the maids, and got into the carriage and drove to the Hongyi Building.

Inside the carriage, Zhu Zhen thought carefully about the recent situation, the theft of Yuhelou this time was definitely a conspiracy, but who was the mastermind behind it? Is it Cao Wei, how dare he, a small pacification envoy, attack the Zongren Mansion......

The carriage stopped, and the coachman shouted, "Sir, the road ahead is blocked, and there is a group of mourners." ”

Zhu Zhen scolded secretly, then walked down from the carriage and said, "It's not far from the Red Mansion here, you wait here, and the old man walks there." ”

"Yes, sir!"

Zhu Zhen walked cautiously on the side of the street, afraid of being contaminated with bad luck, he felt that he had been very unlucky recently, and if he was contaminated with any bad luck, he might die.

The mourning team walked forward crying, and the white-clothed people on the left and right sides each carried a basket in their hands, which was full of copper coins.

"Worship the ancestors, go all the way!"

The man in white grabbed a handful of copper coins and threw them into the sky, and for a while the streets were chaotic, Zhu Zhen didn't know where he was squeezed, and opened his mouth to reprimand loudly, but no one was willing to listen to him.

Suddenly, a person rushed and knocked Zhu Zhen to the ground directly, and before he could get up, he felt an unbearable pain in his leg, and the noisy crowd covered his screams. Zhu Zhen wanted to see who the person who did it was, but when he turned his head to look, there were only people and beggars who were buried in collecting money.

A wail came out: "Who is harming me? ”

On the teahouse on the side, Cao Wei looked at the chaotic scene downstairs, took a sip of tea, and said lightly: "The official said that he would break your legs......"

(New Year's blessings, no bad luck throughout the year, all three legs are firm, no blowing or black, ask for a ticket!) ）
