"Qin Xiaoya, where are you arranged?" Guo Nu asked.

"A safe place for the time being!" Meng Yan replied.

Guo Nu still wanted Meng Yan to say it, but Meng Yan closed his mouth and stopped talking, obviously unwilling to tell him the specific location.

"Forget it, I don't want to know, but I remind you, you must not touch this woman, otherwise even I won't be able to protect you!" Guo Nu solemnly reminded.

"This Uncle Guo can rest assured, the little nephew is not the kind of person who is lustful!"

"Well, it's nothing, you go down and rest first!" Guo Nu nodded and ordered.

"Uncle Guo, there are two other things about the little nephew?"

"Say."

"When I escorted Qin Xiaoya's master and servant back to get things just now, several people from Beiya intended to mistreat Qin Xiaoya's master and servant, so I tied them up, and now they are still tied in the courtyard of Xiaoya's study." Meng Yan Road.

"Bastard thing, these people are getting more and more out of the king's law!"

"Uncle Guo, the Southern Ya is in charge of the military discipline of the Benwei, and the people of the Northern Ya not only drink alcohol when they are performing important tasks, but also do this kind of thing that insults the reputation of the Benwei, what should they be guilty of?" Meng Yan is colorful.

"Rectify military discipline!" A cold light flashed in Guo Nu's eyes, and he couldn't hear the meaning of Meng Yan's words anymore, he had been the commander of the Jinyi Guard for all these years.

"One more thing?" 、

"What else?"

"Uncle Guo, lend me some money?" Meng Yan stretched out his hand and said.

"How much?" Guo Nu was a little surprised, but then he understood, Meng Yan fled all the way back, he must have been shy in his pocket, and now his home is still occupied, and it is normal to have no money to spend.

"Five hundred taels of silver!"

"Five hundred taels of silver, no!" When Guo Nu heard this, he was immediately furious, although he was a third-grade master, but the annual salary given by the imperial court was converted into silver and was only about one hundred and fifty taels of silver.

Meng Yan was about to borrow his money for almost three years with one mouth, which was like a lion's mouth.

"If you don't have five hundred taels, you can always do four hundred taels, right?"

"Neither!" Guo Nu flatly refused.

"Three hundred taels, two hundred and eighty taels...... Two hundred and fifty taels, no less......"

Guo Nu still shook his head, meaning that he didn't.

"Two hundred taels, Uncle Guo, if you really don't have one, then I'll go to the money bank to borrow a loan shark!" Meng Yan said angrily.

"What are you borrowing so much money for?"

"I haven't replied to my identity now, and I can't get the money from the imperial court, can't I sit back and eat empty, thinking about doing some business and making a little money!" Meng Yan said, "But this business also has to have capital, I calculated, at least two hundred taels of silver to start!" ”

"I can lend you two hundred taels of silver, but yours promise me that I am not allowed to do anything like a traitor!" Guo said angrily.

"Don't worry, Uncle Guo, my identity is still unknown!" Meng Yan Road.

"It's good to know!" Guo Nu stood up and turned around, took a book from the shelf, opened it, and took out two Daming treasure banknotes from it.

"Uncle Guo, this Daming treasure banknote can only be exchanged for one hundred taels and sixty taels now, you might as well give me the silver ticket of Datong Bank!" Meng Yan Road.

"Boy, you still don't like it, I only have Daming treasure money here, do you want to love it!" Guo glared angrily.

"Yes, yes, but let's say okay, what you borrowed from me is the Daming treasure banknote, and I will return yours is also this Daming treasure banknote, how about it?" Meng Yan took it and said, "Uncle Guo, I'll retire first." ”

"Wait!" Guo angrily called Meng Yan.

"Uncle Guo, do you have anything else?"

"This brother, settle the account, you borrow money from the official, how to calculate the interest?" Guo Nu sat down and picked up the teacup to finish.

"Uncle Guo, are you planning to lend me a loan shark?" Meng Yan couldn't cry or laugh.

"I'm not as black as a loan shark, but we're not related, why should I lend you money?" Guo said angrily, "Of course it's for profit!" ”

"Uncle Guo, how much interest do you want?" Meng Yan gritted his teeth and asked.

"The rules of usury, nine out of thirteen, since you call me uncle, I can't do that to you, in this way, you pay me back the money within half a year, I give you the Ming treasure banknotes, you just change them into silver tickets!" Guo said angrily.

"Uncle Guo, why don't you change your career, resign and go to the sea to lend usury, you will definitely become the richest man in the Ming Dynasty!" Meng Yan Road.

"Of course, if you become my son-in-law, we will be between Weng and son-in-law, so I won't mention this money." Guo Nu smiled and said, "I can give you more capital, I wish you success." ”

"Okay, I promised!"

"Really?" Guo Nu was excited, his legs naturally contracted, and the teacup in his hand almost shook off.

"Yes, I agreed to your conditions, Daming treasure banknotes for silver tickets!" Meng Yan gritted his teeth and said heavily.

Guo shuddered angrily, can this kid finish his words in one breath, he will be wrong, and Bai was excited.

"Bastard boy, Xiaoyue is still wronged by marrying you?"

"It's not me who is wronged, it's your daughter who is wronged!" Meng Yan said, "I'm poor now, if Miss Yue follows me, wouldn't it be too aggrieved." ”

"It doesn't matter, I'll prepare a good dowry for her."

"Uncle Guo, I've been running for a day, you see, it's not early, I have to go back to sleep." Meng Yan directly diverted the topic.

Seeing that Meng Yan didn't accept the offer, Guo Nu also knew that this matter couldn't be forced, and he couldn't be in a hurry, so he waved his hand: "Get out." ”

"Yes!"

"Uncle Guo, don't forget to drink the medicine, this medicine is very expensive!" Meng Yan walked to the door, poked his head in, and said angrily at Guo.

"Humph!" Guo Nu snorted coldly, and when he saw the colder medicinal soup, he became angry, and was about to take it up and pour it out.

Suddenly, I found myself a little grumpy lately.

"Are you really a little angry?" Stretched out his hand and smelled it, and sure enough, a smell rushed to his nostrils.

He picked up the medicine bowl and drank it in one gulp.

Zhangjia mutton noodle restaurant.

Meng Yan came over early in the morning, the noodle restaurant had just opened, and Zhang Bao, the shopkeeper, was busy in the shopkeeper, and the business was very hot.

"Stone, where have you been in the past two days, I and Yuying are looking for you everywhere?" Seeing Meng Yan appear, Zhang Bao greeted him with great surprise.

"Baozi, your business here is good, but the place is a little smaller!" Meng Yan said with a smile.

"Stone, do you know, that Lan Dou's Jinyi Wei Baihu was beaten, not only did the official lose, but his prescription for occupying you was also sealed!" Zhang Bao said excitedly.

"I know, I'm here today, first, I'm hungry and want to eat a bowl of mutton stewed noodles, and second, I have something to discuss with you!" Meng Yan Road.

"Okay, you wait, I'll do it for you myself!" Zhang Bao said.

"I'm not going to eat here, I'm going to the back." Meng Yan Road.

"Okay, okay, Yuying is at home, I'll do it in a while, I'll send it to you!" Zhang Bao nodded hurriedly.

"Brother Stone!" Seeing Meng Yan, Hu Yuying was also surprised, and hurriedly opened the door to let Meng Yan in.

"Brother Shi, drink tea!"

"Thank you, Sister Yuying, I told Baozi in front, he will be back in a while, we have something to discuss!" Meng Yan Road.

"Oh, has Brother Shi eaten?"

"The buns are all for me, and I'll send them all together in a while!"

"Okay, I'll go and help first, Brother Shi, you sit down for a while." Hu Yuying nodded.

didn't let Meng Yan wait long, Zhang Bao came in with a big bowl of enthusiastic mutton stewed noodles.

"Stone, eat it, this hot noodle is the best!"

"Baozi, actually, that Lan Dou was beaten by me, and his loss of office this time also has something to do with me!" Meng Yan said slowly.

"Stone, is it really you?" Zhang Bao asked excitedly.

"It's me, and I blame this kid for just bumping into him, even if he is unlucky, how can my old Meng's house be so easy to occupy?" Meng Yan sneered.

"By the way, Stone, this Lan Dou has lost his official position and resigned, and the house has been sealed, when can we get the house back?" Zhang Bao asked eagerly.

"Don't worry about this first, I'll get the house back sooner or later, but I still have some things that I haven't dealt with well, so I'll seal it for the time being." Meng Yan Road.

"Stone, where have you been in the past two days, Yuying and I are dying, if you hadn't left that little note, we would both have gone out to find you!" Zhang Bao said with concern.

"Actually, in the past ten years, I have been doing a dangerous thing, and now although I am back, my opponent is still there, and the power is also very strong, so in order not to affect you husband and wife, I have no choice but to tell you the truth." Meng Yan Road.

"Stone, what are you talking about, we grew up together, you helped us many times when we were young, and your father also took care of our family a lot, you have something, how can we stand idly by?" Zhang Bao said excitedly.

"Baozi, it's enough to have your words." Meng Yan said, "I want to ask you to do me a favor?" ”

"Stone, you say, what's the matter?"

"Help me send some rice, noodles and some daily necessities to a pair of master and servants, the address is in Magpie Hutong in Jinchengfang, and there is a half-old lantern hanging at the door, with the word 'stone' on it." Meng Yan said, he didn't plan to let Jiang Feng and them do it.

Because, he can't let Jiang Feng's whereabouts be exposed, you know, Beiya will definitely track down the whereabouts of Qin Xiaoya's master and servant.

And after thinking about it, the most suitable candidate is only himself, who is small, and he is still the most trustworthy candidate.

"Stone, you are ......"

"You just have to send something, just say that I asked you to send it, don't say anything else, don't answer your questions, it's enough to go once a week." Meng Yan Road.

"Got it." Zhang Bao nodded solemnly.

"This is the purchase list, you don't buy in one store, go to several stores." Meng Yan handed Zhang Bao a note and said.

Zhang Bao took a look at it and nodded.

"This is ten taels of silver, it is the money to buy these materials, you take it!" Meng Yan took out two silver ingots from his arms.

"These things aren't worth a lot of money, stones, aren't you out of sight?"

"You take this money, I don't know how many times I want to trouble you, I didn't ask you to stop, you just keep sending it according to this."

"Okay, stone, I'll do something, don't worry, I promise there will be no problem!" Zhang Bao said.

"You can say this to Yuying, but you can't mention it to anyone else, if someone sees it, do you want to say anything?" Meng Yan reminded.

"Got it, don't worry!" Zhang Bao urged, "Stone, you eat noodles quickly, this noodles won't taste good if they're cold." ”
