Chapter 166: Complicated Inside Story!

Seeing that the pawnshop shopkeeper was still fluke, Lu Chen shook his head with a smile and said, "It seems that I am still too soft-hearted, and I actually let you still have the heart to threaten me?" ”

Hearing this, and then looking at Lu Chen's devilish smile, the pawnshop shopkeeper hurriedly begged, "Don't!" I won't say anything, I'll say whatever you ask, and I promise not to talk nonsense anymore! ”

"Wouldn't it have been like this earlier, and I didn't have to suffer from flesh and skin! I won't ask too much, so I'll ask you two questions, first, who bought the jade pendant? ”

Although he already knew it in his heart, when Lu Chen really asked, he still showed hesitation. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Obviously, the identity of the person who bought the jade pendant is not simple. Otherwise, he wouldn't be afraid to be like this. The pawnshop shopkeeper was hesitating, and suddenly, he saw Lu Chen's face once again showing the grin that made him creep. So, he gritted his teeth and said, "Alas, it was bought by the people of the Taiyuan royal family, as for who it is, I don't know, he covered his face when he came, and I couldn't see his appearance clearly." However, one thing is certain, this person's status in the Wang family should be very high, and he offered to buy jade pendants, but I didn't agree at first. However, immediately after that, he actually took out the personal jade pendant of the head of the Wang family, and I sold it to him out of desperation."

After speaking, the pawnshop shopkeeper looked at Lu Chen pitifully, hoping that the other party would let him go for the sake of being forced to be helpless.

After listening to him, Lu Chen muttered to himself in his heart, this person from the Wang family, they have also offended Wang Han. However, Meat Ball had already mortgaged the jade pendant half a year ago, and Wang Han was said to have come to Chang'an only in recent days. Could it be that in addition to Wang Han, the other Wang family members are also hostile to Meatball or Shou Wangfu?

Moreover, although Wang Han is a descendant of the Wang family, he has not yet held the qualifications of the head of the family, at least not now. The entire Wang family can make the head of the family rest assured that the person who will hand over the personal jade pendant is definitely not more than two hands, but I don't know what this person came to Chang'an all the way to, but it is definitely not to buy a personal jade pendant for meat balls!

After thinking for a while, Lu Chen didn't think of any clues, after all, this matter was full of doubts, so Lu Chen had no idea where to start. No longer thinking about this, Lu Chen asked again, "Okay, that's all for this question, let me ask you another question, who is the force behind this Qingfeng pawnshop of yours?" ”

Hearing this, the pawnshop shopkeeper's eyes suddenly shrank, but soon saw him say with a calm face, "This son, our pawnshop is not attached to any forces, if you don't believe it, you can ask others!" ”

"It seems that you are still not honest, I have inquired before coming, although your Qingfeng shop does not seem to have the slightest special features. However, as far as I know, a few years ago, it seems that the second son in the house of the middle scholar died in your pawnshop. It is said that at that time, the people of Zhongshushe were furious when they learned about this and went to the Qingfeng pawnshop in person. Just when many people thought that the pawnshop was going to suffer, the Zhongshu people went back inexplicably. What's even more surprising is that he didn't pursue the matter again. You won't tell me that the people in the middle school are afraid of you because they are afraid of you, there are many such cases, I think you should know better than me! ”

After hearing Lu Chen's unhurried words, the pawnshop shopkeeper's face instantly turned pale, his eyes gradually dimmed, and he said weakly, "How did you suspect that there is a force behind me?" He didn't believe that Lu Chen would investigate the deeds of his shop over the years for no reason, and he must have investigated it after he had some suspicions.

Hearing the confusion of the pawnshop owner, Lu Chen chuckled lightly and said, "When I heard Meatball say that you used 20,000 taels of gold to buy his close-fitting jade pendant, I already had doubts in my heart. You also know that in terms of the value of that jade pendant alone, I'm afraid that five thousand taels of gold is not worth it, but you still exchange it with him with a lot of money, obviously wanting him to be unable to redeem it within a year, and then you will give this jade pendant that represents great significance to your master. After getting this jade pendant, your master will definitely come forward to give it back to King Shou, so that King Shou owes your master a favor, and it is even possible to draw King Shou directly into your forces! And you, too, have made a great contribution! ”

At the beginning, hearing Lu Chen's little bit of analysis, the pawnshopkeeper's face showed a look of surprise, obviously he didn't expect Lu Chen to be able to guess his intentions. However, as Lu Chen continued, the look of surprise on his face had long been replaced by shock. The young man had guessed all his intentions with just a few clues, and they were exactly what he had thought.

After a long time, the pawnshop owner who came back to his senses said, "Childe is really a god!" Yes, I just wanted to give these things to my master, that is, the eldest prince who was the emperor of Shang Shuling. Because the value of the piece was not worth 20,000 taels of gold at all, I didn't worry about it being bought, so I put it in the shop. But I didn't expect to be seen by the people of the Wang family."

After finishing speaking, the shopkeeper of the pawnshop also had a bad face, this time he really stole chickens and couldn't eat a handful of rice, not only did he not please his master, but also offended the son of Shouwangfu.

Hearing his statement, Lu Chen said thoughtfully, "It turns out that you are from the faction of Prince Li Ying!" ”

Lu Chen is not too jealous of this Li Ying, according to the memory of his previous life, this Li Ying was later abolished as the crown prince. However, I just don't know if my time travel will change history, after all, there were no printers in the Tang Dynasty at that time. His crossing seems to have made this Tang Dynasty develop in an unpredictable direction. Thinking of this, Lu Chen didn't want to offend this Li Ying too much, what if he wasn't abolished?

So, Lu Chen whispered to the owner of the pawnshop, "For your sake, I'll let you go this time, if you dare to go out and talk nonsense, you should know the consequences!" ”

After speaking, Lu Chen walked outside, and when he reached the door, he turned back again and said, "That's right, this time you broke the contract and sold the jade pendant of the meat ball, see for yourself how to compensate!" After saying this, Lu Chen opened the door and walked out of the courtyard in a bright light. Now he was not afraid of being discovered, and if the pawnshop shopkeeper was smart enough, he would not tell anyone, including his master, about it. After all, once this matter gets out, because he is not doing things well, his master is likely to abandon him!

After going out from the place where he came in, the sky had become very dark, and Lu Chen returned to Qingfeng Pawnshop, only to see Meatball and Zhao Long sitting in front of a small tea shop nearby.
