That night, Yuan Kui was reading with a lamp in the study, and Yuan Ji stood outside the door and said respectfully: "Uncle, the call of the tricky pupil has come." ”

Yuan Kui said, "Well, let him in." ”

"No." Yuan Ji responded, and brought the tricky pupil in.

Then, I saw that the tricky pupil bowed down a little and said, "The tricky pupil has seen the Taifu." ”

Yuan Kui said: "Well, there is no need to be polite; This time, the old man wants you to kill another person, as long as you can kill it, the price is not a problem. ”

The tricky pupil asked, "I don't know who Taifu wants to kill this time?" ”

Yuan Kui said: "Dong Zhuo, the prime minister of the dynasty." ”

When the tricky pupil heard this, he couldn't help but hesitate a little before saying, "Okay, 100,000 taels of gold, not a single copper is missing." ”

"What! 100,000 taels of gold? How dare you make an offer! When Yuan Ji on the side heard this, he couldn't help but lose his breath immediately.

Speaking of which, one tael of gold is equal to 10,000 copper coins, and one hundred thousand taels of gold is equal to 100,000 copper coins. And a copper coin is worth about a dime of later generations, and 100,000 copper coins is 100 million yuan. Tsk, it's not that I don't know, it's shocking, it's really profitable to be a killer these days.

But the tricky pupil said: "Dong Zhuo is the prime minister of the dynasty, and the masters under his hands are not ordinary people can deal with; Although I regard money as my life, the price I offer has always been childish; If you want to assassinate today, only 10,000 taels of gold will be enough, and Dong Zhuo's life will be worth at least 100,000 taels. ”

Yuan Ji couldn't help but say again: "Then you might as well grab it!" Let me ask you, if you were asked to assassinate Shang Shuling Shaoran before, how much should you offer? ”

The tricky pupil couldn't help but groan, but said: "If you want me to assassinate Shaoran, even if I pay a million taels, I won't take it; I hadn't seen his martial arts before, so I didn't take him seriously; But just a few days ago, I had a fight with an unknown young general under Dong Zhuo, only to find that there is no shortage of masters in this world; Although I regard money as my life, it does not mean that I will die for the sake of money. How could I do it when I knew I couldn't? ”

Yuan Ji chirped: "Snort, you are self-aware now." ”

The pupil was silent and did not speak.

"Hmm." At this time, Yuan Kui couldn't help frowning, shook his head and said, "No, 100,000 taels is really too high, and the current treasury is probably only this number; 10,000 taels is acceptable. ”

But the tricky pupil said: "I'm sorry, 10,000 taels can only be regarded as a deposit." ”

Yuan Kui saw that Wei Tong refused to give in at all, although he was unhappy in his heart, but he was helpless. Immediately, Yuan Kui said, "Okay." 100,000 taels is 100,000 taels, but you can't pay the bill until it's done. ”

The tricky pupil nodded and said, "Yes, then please pay the deposit first." ”

Yuan Kui couldn't help frowning and asked, "Can't you wait until the matter is completed to pay it all at once?" ”

Wei Tong replied: "I'm really sorry Taifu, the advance deposit must be 10% of all commissions, and not a single copper is missing, this is my consistent rule." ”

Yuan Kui couldn't help but say: "10,000 taels of gold is not a small amount, and I can't take out so much cash for the time being." ”

The tricky pupil said, "In that case, then you can ask for another master." ”

"Wait a minute." After speaking, the pupil turned around and was about to leave. Yuan Kui couldn't help but suddenly stop him again and asked, "Do you have to be gold, can you replace it with other valuable treasures?" ”

The pupil groaned slightly, and said, "Yes." The same goes for beauties. ”

Yuan Kui said: "There are many good-looking maids in my house, you can choose at will." ”

The corners of his mouth slightly, but he said, "Just a maid, in my opinion, it's not worth much." ”

Then. Yuan Ji on the side suddenly frowned and said, "You are such nonsense, what do you have to do?" ”

Wei Tong smiled and said, "That's it, the granddaughter of the Taifu family is quite eye-catching." It should be worth 10,000 taels of gold. ”

"Presumptuous!" When Yuan Kui heard this, he was immediately a little angry.

But seeing Yuan Ji, he also scolded angrily: "You guy get out of here, how far and how far you go!" ”

The tricky pupil said with the corners of his mouth slightly: "If Taifu feels that something is wrong, then the tricky pupil will go." ”

"Wait." Suddenly, Yuan Kui's face turned cold, but he said: "You must know that she is my precious granddaughter, even if it is 100,000 taels of gold, the old man will definitely not use her as collateral." ”

The tricky pupil said, "Wonderful, then you have to ask for another Gao Ming." ”

"You—" Yuan Kui turned sullen again. I think he is a dignified prince, the head of a famous family, and he was coerced by a despicable assassin. Such a thing, for whom who is not annoyed?

Seeing this scene, the corner of his mouth slightly, and he said: "Taifu, this transaction is actually very simple, either you pay a deposit of 10,000 taels, or replace it with your granddaughter; Is it so difficult for those who achieve great things to be informal? ”

Yuan Kui said with a calm face: "Don't think you can coerce the old man to comply, there are many masters under the old man; Regardless of whether you are the number one assassin in the world or not, as long as the old man gives an order, you will be hunted down endlessly; Unless you escape to the outside of the Saiwai, don't try to gain a foothold in the Central Plains! ”

The tricky pupil couldn't help laughing and said: "Haha, I know that your Yuan family is the fourth generation and the third duke, and the protégés and old officials are all over the world, with the power under your hands, it is indeed easy to destroy my tricky pupils; However, if I want to kill you at this moment, I am afraid it will be an easy thing to do. ”

When Yuan Kui heard this, his face changed slightly.

Yuan Ji on the side couldn't help but say coldly: "Hmph, do you think that after you kill Taifu, you will be able to walk out of this villa safe and sound?" ”

But the tricky pupil said: "What does it matter, it's a big deal to exchange a life for a life; Swapping the life of your dignified master for the life of a humble assassin seems to me to be a bargain. ”

"You-" Yuan Ji was unable to refute for a moment.

Yuan Kui narrowed his eyes, and then said, "You go." ”

The tricky pupil lowered the corners of his mouth slightly, and arched his hand and said, "Then thank you Taifu for raising your noble hand." Immediately, the pupil was gone.

Subsequently, Yuan Ji couldn't help asking: "Uncle, did you just let him go?" ”

Yuan Kui said with a cold face: "Hmph, this unpopular shaft dares to blackmail the old man?" The old man wants him to die without a place to be buried! ”

Yuan Ji asked, "What does my uncle plan to do?" ”

Yuan Kui said: "Send someone to deliver an anonymous letter to Tingwei, saying that the assassin who assassinated Wuyangjun is the world's number one assassin; Then let Tingwei send a letter and offer a reward for the head of the tricky pupil. ”

Yuan Ji nodded and replied, "I know uncle; What about the assassination of Dong Zhuo? ”

Yuan Kui groaned and said, "Let's put aside the assassination of Dong Zhuo for the time being; Didn't he already go to Kanto at the beginning, and let him contact my Yuan family's protégé in private, and jointly raise troops to denounce Dong Zhuo; I don't believe it, he Dong Zhuo still has the ability to make enemies of the scholars all over the world. ”

Yuan Ji couldn't help asking: "Then what name should I use?" ”

Yuan Kui said: "Let's just say that Dong Zhuo abolished the longevity and established the young, rebelled against the Han family etiquette law, and intended to seek the Han family's world; He called on all states and counties to raise troops to overthrow the new emperor and support the old emperor. ”

Yuan Ji responded: "Nephew understands. ”

At this moment, to the surprise of the two, a tile was lifted off the top of their heads, and their plan had been fully exposed.

And the person who eavesdropped on the roof was the tricky pupil who had just left, and I saw him sneer: "Hmph, old guy, I see how you die!" ”

Subsequently, the tricky pupil sneaked into the Prime Minister's Mansion, left a letter to Dong Zhuo, and then quietly left. However, what Wei Tong didn't expect was that not long after he left the Prime Minister's Mansion, he was targeted by a mysterious man in black. (To be continued......)
