Chapter 43: The Seizure

The sun in the sky was pale in color, as if it had been obscured by clouds. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The autumn wind blew quietly, bringing up the leaves of the ground.

It's just strange that three or two leaves seem to have been twisted out of thin air by something, and they can't stop shaking in the air, but they can't break free.

Under the eaves of the bungalow

A profane. The figure of the white hat appeared out of thin air, and if you look closely, it is the exotic man who confronted the old man of the Tang Sect with the broken leg that night.

I didn't see any more movements from him, and his figure seemed to be pulled by some hook, and floated straight into the sky, but the trajectory of the drift was the same as the footprints on the ground, and I don't know what the connection was.

Lou Ji cabinet shop

As early as the early Sui Dynasty, cabinet shops began to appear, and their main function was to save money for others.

It sounds like a modern bank, but the bank pays interest, and you need to pay money into it.

The people who used silver and gold in those years were either high-ranking officials or nobles, which made the common people, especially the wealthy merchants, the most troublesome.

Because they often can only use Tongbao.

Tongbao is commonly known as Kong Fang money.

As mentioned before, the purchasing power of silver is very strong, and the purchasing power of Tongbao is low, and those wealthy businessmen who do big business often pile up a warehouse of Tongbao at home, and it is difficult to spend it.

Because if you want to buy something very expensive, you need to transport money out of the car by car.

Isn't this looking for robbery?

Therefore, many wealthy and powerful businessmen formed such a loose organization as the cabinet shop.

What is the use of this place?

Saving

When you need money, you can open a flying money in the counter, which is something similar to a check, and use it to pay.

A thin piece of paper is much more convenient than a car of Tongbao.

Of course, due to the problems of credibility, transportation capacity and financial resources, this payment method is still limited to a few hundred miles around Chang'an, Luoyang and Yangzhou.

The place occupied by the cabinet shop is generally not small, so in addition to saving money, such a large place can also be used for accommodation and temporarily serve as a small inn.

This floor is one of the many cabinet shops near Chang'an.

Xiao Er, dressed in green clothes and wearing a white cloth around his neck, carried a gourd of wine, carried a box of meals and went straight into the cabinet, and said loudly: "Shopkeeper!" The wine and food that the guests want are all introduced! ”

With that, he entered the backyard through a small door under the stairs.

Entering the backyard, Xiao Er's smile remained unchanged, closed the door, glanced at the high courtyard wall, and quietly inserted the Nanmu lunch box into the backyard and the back kitchen, where the ground lacked a floor tile and a square-shaped depression, and the lunch box was inserted there.

Then, he opened the wine gourd and poured it into a small opening in the lunch box.

If outsiders can see it at this time, they will find out what kind of wine is in this gourd? It's clearly mercury with a silver sheen!

This little two was very skillful, and he didn't spill a drop of mercury, and poured it all into the lunch box.

Immediately, the right hand that grabbed the handle of the lunch box twisted it hard, and it turned the lunch box and the depression on the ground, and a small door slightly larger than the dog hole suddenly appeared in a dead corner of the back kitchen, which was very hidden.

After opening it, Xiao Er used the towel hanging around his neck to surround his eyes, and when he was blindfolded, he could find that the white cloth turned over and there were black marks everywhere.

In normal times, people would think that this was a stain when Xiao Er cleaned up the clutter, but when he put this cloth on his eyes, he would find that even in the daytime, he couldn't see anything.

Xiao Er bowed respectfully in the direction where the lunch box was placed, and just bowed like this, not moving.

waited quietly for a while, until it was confirmed that Xiao Er was indeed unable to see, and then the footprints passed lightly all the way.

It's just that for some reason, the Mingjiao assassin who usually walks on the snow without a trace and crosses the river without waves will leave such obvious footprints on the ground, and even he didn't notice this.

If this is in the process of carrying out the mission, it is definitely a fatal flaw.

But at this time, the only person who can see these footprints is the little second who bent down respectfully to give a gift.

It's a pity that he blindfolded.

……

Although Lu Yanhe is the richest man in the world, his life is not as easy as others think.

At this time, he was sitting on the side of the desk, looking at the thick file in front of him.

There are many chambers of commerce in the world, and if you talk about the size, it is absolutely unclear.

But only to say the big one, it can barely point out more than 80 of them, all of which are old chambers of commerce that have been inherited for nearly a hundred years.

Among the more than 80 chambers of commerce, 72 belong to Lu Yanhe.

The file in his hand now is the income report of the seventy-two major chambers of commerce in the world this year.

Although it has been streamlined many times, the volume is still stacked to the height of an adult's calf, and it is necessary to count the pages one by one, even if the paper-making process at this time is not as fine as that of later generations, at least tens of thousands of pages.

But Lu Yanhe was willing, turning page by page, while still thinking about something.

The candle by the door moved slightly, not alarming anyone.

At this time, there was a sudden knock outside the door, which was very fast, and the regularity was very obvious.

Lu Yanhe frowned slightly.

After receiving the dossier, he lightly pinched it into a seal with both hands, and the door that could knock on the sound just now actually disappeared out of thin air, and after someone entered, it was sealed out of thin air.

Looking closely, the wood grain on the door is so clear, but I don't know how the scene was made.

The person who came into the house showed his figure, and it was the same as last time. An exotic woman in a white hat with a white chest.

Seeing that it was her, Lu Yanhe smiled.

He beckoned, took the letter from her and wrapped her in his arms.

.. Wrong

As if he suddenly felt something, regardless of the relationship between the woman in his arms and himself, he directly punched out a palm, grabbed the white leg with his big hand, and threw it up.

He threw the woman out as a shield.

As if in mid-air, some obstacle was encountered, and the exotic woman was directly in the air, split in two from her left shoulder to her right waist.

'Smack'

The body fell to the ground, but it did not scream like a normal dismemberment, but its face was white and even the blood that fell from the abdominal cavity was coagulated.

Seeing this scene, Lu Yanhe's heart was cold, his hands instantly slapped on the table, four small doors opened from all directions, and four figures also rushed out at the same time, surrounding Lu Yanhe, surrounding him, leaving no gap.

Lu Yanhe, who should have felt relieved, saw this, but cold sweat came down.

The heads of four people

It's all gone

Finally, he let out a long sigh.

Lu Yanhe also sighed a little, he didn't expect him to be so careful, but he was still served to the pot.

He clenched his fist into the air and said in a deep voice: "I don't know which hero it is?" In Xia Lu Yanhe, if there is anything that can help you, please speak generously. ”

Originally, Lu Yanhe didn't think that the other party would answer him, the other party had done such a complete job, it was nothing more than two ways to ask for money and life, of course it was good to ask something, but it was just good if he couldn't ask.

And when he first touched the table, he had already given a warning, and now he was just going to delay for a while to wait for rescue.

Unexpectedly, the other party really answered.

"Oh? Is the shopkeeper Lu really so generous? ”

Hearing this answer, Lu Yanhe suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, since he can communicate, it means that there is room for communication.

'Probably for money, right?' ’

I just don't know...

looked at the corpses of the four Taiyuan Realm peak masters beside him, and was a little puzzled.

‘… This is at least a master of the Dao state of mind, what is the use of asking for money? ’

"Then I'll just speak."

It's Tang dialect, with a slight accent, it should be a big cannibal, but I don't know if it's a disguise. ’

The voice sounded again, and Lu Yanhe remained silent and judged carefully.

Suddenly a warm breeze blew in my ears, and it was a snort.

Comparing the strength of the other party and himself, Lu Yanhe did not choose to resist, he was just humiliated, compared to his life, what is it?

"I... To your face. ”

Pupils contracted sharply, at this time, Lu Yanhe didn't know what the other party wanted to do, but he had to resist if he didn't resist, if he continued like this, not only would he not be able to save his life, but even all the money might be in the hands of others, how could he bear it?

The nail of the middle finger of his right hand swelled, but instead of stabbing the other person, he stabbed himself in the face.

Before I could feel the pain on my face, the perception in my arm was gone, and my neck was also painful.

Until he died, Lu Yanhe did not have an expression of fear on his face.

It's just that the color of guilt can't be stopped.

'Identity, taken away... Why'
