Chapter 366: Harvest in Prison
Su Wanqing suddenly remembered someone she hadn't cared about for a long time.
She was silent for a while, and said to the man who had recovered a little, but still had a hint of frustration in his expression: "Zhao, maybe, you can find someone to ask." β
Seeing Su Wanqing's expression, Yi Zhao couldn't help but ask, "Who?" β
"Xu Che."
Yi Zhao searched in his mind for a while, and then asked with some surprise: "That grandson who disappeared for a long time and was later recovered?" β
Su Wanqing was not surprised to see that Yi Zhao knew Xu Che's identity. She said lightly: "The real Xu Che doesn't know where he went, the current Xu Che is just an impostor." β
Yi Zhao raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Su Wanqing. It seems that his master knows a lot of things. There's nothing surprising about that, though. Although he was not at the scene when Su Wanqing went to the small fishing village, he still heard about it to some extent.
"This Xu Che, what's so special?"
Su Wanqing said lightly: "The female corpses found at the beginning seem to have nothing to do with him. He was captured by us, and now he's been locked up. However, during this time, he has never had a chance, and he seems to be very tight-lipped, and he can't ask why. If it's Zhao, maybe I can think of a way. β
Su Wanqing paused for a moment, and then continued: "And before, I intentionally or unintentionally revealed the matter of Ruan Guifei and the underground casino in front of him, and his performance told me that I am afraid he knows something." Perhaps, there is a certain connection with Ruan Guifei. After all, those female corpses were also drained of blood and died. I always feel that the two are inextricably linked. β
After Yi Zhao heard this, his handsome eyebrows couldn't help but wrinkle slightly. This Xu Che actually has so many backgrounds behind it, and because of the matter of the female corpse, it once made people panic. Could it be that the black hand behind the scenes has actually been under their noses all along?
If this matter is really related to Ruan Guifei, then it is really intriguing. The emperor has been looking for the murderer behind him, if that person is the beautiful woman who sleeps next to his pillow day and night, I don't know what kind of look he will have on his face after he knows?
Su Wanqing thought deeply.
But now, she has not found Ruan Guifei's handle for the time being. This underground casino was originally her entry point, but she never expected that after getting some information, Ruobing was so seriously injured.
For Su Wanqing, what is the difference between this and injuring a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred? It wasn't the outcome she wanted to see. Right now, even Yi Zhao can't find out any more useful information, so it's better to let him go and find Xu Che.
Maybe in Xu Che's place, he can find out something.
After Yi Zhao knew where Xu Che was, he nodded at Su Wanqing, although the two of them had not known each other for a very long time. But they have already cultivated a tacit understanding with each other, and Su Wanqing knew when she saw Yi Zhao's expression that he was going to go to find Xu Che now.
She didn't stop her, but sat on the warm blanket and slowly poured the hot tea in her mouth.
Yi Zhao said hello to her, and soon she dodged and disappeared in front of Su Wanqing's eyes.
Su Wanqing thought for a while, she really can't do anything with Ruan Guifei now, and she doesn't know what her purpose is. But what she can be sure of is that Ruan Guifei, a woman, is very dangerous. At least she still doesn't know what kind of hole cards Ruan Guifei still has in her hand.
Therefore, it is true that she is not yet able to act rashly.
At this moment, Su Wanqing suddenly understood a little why Xiu had been closed all these years, cultivating his own power in secret. When she knew that there were so many unexpected things behind Ruan Guifei, what she wanted to do most was to make herself stronger.
Only by making yourself strong can you retain a trace of calmness in your heart in the face of wind and rain. At the very least, don't be so caught off guard.
In the dungeon, Su Wanqing was dressed in chic men's clothes, and she stood outside the door of the dungeon, looking at a man dressed in black.
The man's hair was a little messy, and he had an ordinary face, and if he was in the crowd, no one would care about it at all. He looked a little embarrassed and had a hint of paleness on his face.
But the man's eyes were full of anger when he looked at Su Wanqing.
"Damn it, get me out of here."
Su Wanqing looked at him for a long time, she clasped her hands to her chest, stood outside the door like this, looked at the man, and said coldly: "Stealing the grain and grass of the country is the most important crime. Why do you think that I will release you after doing such a serious thing? β
"Damn, who the hell are you?"
That man was the man in black who was later caught by Su Wanqing because he stole the grain and grass of Tianli Country. He didn't recognize Su Wanqing at all, it was the famous Heyue County Lord.
However, in this world, I am afraid that except for people who are very familiar with Su Wanqing, and a different kind of nightshade can recognize Su Wanqing. Others, Su Wanqing is still very confident.
"It doesn't matter who I am, you know, it's useless."
The man glared at Su Wanqing viciously and said, "Then what are you doing here?" I can tell you, don't try to get anything out of me. If you don't let me out, then you can get out of here, and don't get in the way of eyes. β
The man seemed to be very unhappy about being in prison. But no matter who else it is, they won't want to stay here. But his temper is quite big. It's as if the person who did the wrong thing is not himself.
Su Wanqing said lightly: "Aren't you afraid, I'll kill you?" You know, in this dungeon, there are all the most vicious people. Even if I kill you, no one will say anything. β
The man glanced at Su Wanqing, and then turned his head to the side.
"Hmph, if you have the ability, you will kill me. I won the trick this time, because my skills are not as good as others, and I can't blame anyone. If I were to be killed, I would only be able to say that I deserved it. You don't bluff people here, if you were to kill me, you would have killed me a long time ago, didn't you? β
This man is not a complete fool, Su Wanqing thought to herself.
However, it is possible to think of hiding grain and grass in the granary, leaving so many people without a trace. It also shows that this man is not stupid.
But how can Su Wanqing conclude that this matter was thought up by this man, or by the people behind him?
"When you came here, didn't the people behind you tell you that it was a dangerous thing to sneak into the barracks alone?"
"Don't be alarmist here, my master said, this matter is nine out of ten, even such a smart second prince can't be found, who will find it - damn, you are actually playing tricks on me!"
The man's expression of smugness and mockery was still a little smug and sarcastic, but he had immediately changed color at this moment. He didn't react until he said this, and it seemed that something was not quite right.
Su Wanqing looked at him a little innocently, and said, "When did I take your words, didn't you say it yourself?" But your master is inevitably a little too arrogant, and he doesn't take the sky away from the country in his eyes like this. In this world, there is nothing that is sure of everything, it is all man-made. β
The man knew that he was careless for a while, but fortunately, he didn't say much information except for revealing that he had a master. Therefore, his heart was still quietly relieved. At the same time, he is a little disgusted with himself, his mouth is always uncontrollable, and he will say the wrong thing if he is not careful, which is really stupid.
Su Wanqing looked at the man's eyes with a trace of remorse, and then flashed a look of luck, and couldn't help but smile coldly in her heart.
If he thought he wasn't exposed, he would be too naΓ―ve.
Who is Su Wanqing, according to a small detail, she can already think about many things.
Su Wanqing was in the gap of thinking, and did not speak again. In this dungeon, silence was restored for a moment. And the man was still immersed in the emotions of his big mouth that he couldn't control, and he didn't notice why Su Wanqing didn't talk to him.
But at this time, for men, it's better for Su Wanqing not to talk to him. Otherwise, if he accidentally said something again, wouldn't he succeed? He must not let this stinky man who came out of nowhere get away with it.
Perhaps, he was specially sent by the emperor of the country to test himself, and he must be stable.
The man secretly cheered himself up inside, and he believed that he must be fine. After the man did a good job of psychological construction, he raised his head with confidence and looked at Su Wanqing.
Coincidentally, at this time, Su Wanqing was also thinking about it. She looked at the man who looked at her with disdain, and said coldly: "In these days, it must be quite difficult to do business, right?" β
The man's brain was short-circuited for a second at the moment, and he didn't know what the man wanted to know by asking such strange questions.
But for the past few days, he has been locked up in this dungeon, and no one has spoken to him at all. This is undoubtedly a torture for men who love to communicate with people.
Now there is a man, although it is obvious that he has his own purpose, but the man still hopes that someone can talk. As long as he was careful, he would be fine.
The man who figured out this layer said cautiously: "Yes, the recent business is really not easy to do, this is something that everyone can see, right?" "Although there is a trend of increasing the number of shops, many old shops are also closing. The new ones replace the old ones, but it doesn't mean that the new ones are doing very well.
Thinking of this, the man couldn't help but sigh slightly. In this world, although businessmen look glamorous on the outside, who knows what kind of pressure they are bearing behind them?
One is prosperous, and one is lost. All in all, business is really difficult to do, and it is very difficult to find a suitable channel, let alone customers, and even to open a store.
Su Wanqing said with some regret: "No, although I know that business is very difficult to do, but business cannot be stopped." Otherwise, how can I earn money to support my family? β
When the man heard this, he raised his head and looked in the direction of Su Wanqing, and found that his expression was very depressed, and it seemed that he was very serious about this matter, and there was no sign of acting.
The man's heart was hot, and then he said, "Yes, I didn't expect you to look young and well-dressed." I didn't expect it, and I was worried about this kind of thing. β
Su Wanqing sighed, glanced at the man, and then said in a deep tone: "It's just that the appearance is glamorous, but how sad the heart is, who can know?" To tell you the truth, I wanted to go to some fabric shop before, after all, the weather is cold......
When Su Wanqing said this, she glanced at the man in front of her and found that he was already listening to her very carefully.
"And then?" The man was originally very serious, but at this moment, he noticed that Su Wanqing had stopped, and urged with some impatience.
This person is really, why is he always in the middle of his speech, and he is in a hurry.
Su Wanqing was not annoyed, but continued: "But I found that many shops have been taken away, and if I can imagine it, others will naturally want to do it." No, in recent days, many new shops selling fabrics have opened everywhere in Tianli Country, and everyone must want to make a lot of money before the winter. I've just spent a lot of money on two shops, and now it's fine, and for a moment I don't know what to do. β
When the man heard this, he looked at Su Wanqing with a hint of sympathy. He had completely forgotten at the moment that Su Wanqing was not here to chat with him at all.
"You are so stupid, the weather has been getting cold these days, and naturally there will be many people who want to buy new clothes, how can those businessmen let go of such an opportunity. If you want me to say, you should do something else and still make money. β
When Su Wanqing heard this, her eyes lit up, and she hurriedly said, "Oh? I am willing to listen to you, what is the way to make my two shops not lose money, and I am very satisfied. But in such weather, what other business would be better than the fabric business? β
The man glanced at Su Wanqing with some hatred, patted his thigh and said, "The weather is so bad, what else do those ordinary people have besides not being warm?" Of course, I can't get enough to eat! Why didn't you understand such a simple truth? You can do some low-cost business and sell something to eat......"
As the man spoke, he found that Su Wanqing listened to his speech very carefully, and he was very satisfied. It's been a long time since I've met someone who is so willing to listen to me, and this feeling can be said to be very good.
Su Wanqing paid attention to the man's expression, and lost no time in interjecting: "According to what the eldest brother said, what kind of food to sell, the cost will be relatively low?" β
Seeing Su Wanqing so "open-minded and studious", the man couldn't help but speak more energetically.
"If you want me to say, the cost is low, and the return is high, naturally it is to sell food, which is the fastest way to make money. Do you think, in the winter, what kind of food can be grown in those fields? If you buy some sweet potatoes and potatoes at a low price, you won't lose money. These things that are easy to store will not be expensive, and everyone is willing to buy them. If you do this business, you don't have to worry about losing money, anyway, in this big winter, you must be able to make a lot of money. β
After the man finished speaking triumphantly, he was ready to accept Su Wanqing's adoring gaze. After all, when people call themselves big brother, he can't let the family lose hope, right?
The man looked at Su Wanqing, but found that there was a hint of weirdness in his eyes when he looked at him. As for what was strange, he couldn't say for a while.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Su Wanqing didn't say anything for a long time, and in the end, the man couldn't hold back himself and asked.
Su Wanqing looked at him, shook her head slightly, and then said with some compassion: "It's nothing, big brother, it's just that the younger brother thinks what you said is too reasonable." Moreover, the younger brother feels a little worthless at this moment for losing money. β
"Losing money? What's that? The man looked a little puzzled by what Su Wanqing said. But he quickly put this behind him, after all, it was the first half of what he said that mattered, didn't it?
"Where, where, you've won the prize." At this moment, where did the man still have the fierce and vicious appearance at the beginning, but he smiled, and stretched out his hand to scratch his head.
Su Wanqing hugged her fists at the man and said, "The little brother is here today, I didn't expect to get such advice from the eldest brother, I really benefited a lot, and the little brother has thanked the eldest brother here." After going back, the younger brother went to Zhang Luo's shop. In order to thank the eldest brother, the younger brother will ask someone to add chicken legs for you! The younger brother still has urgent matters, so I will leave today, and I will come to see the eldest brother next time I am free! β
Hearing that Su Wanqing was leaving, a look of disappointment flashed in the man's eyes. He'll soon have no one to talk to him again, alas.
Just as Su Wanqing turned to leave, she could still hear the man shouting behind her: "Little brother, you have to come and see the big brother quickly......"
The man did have a good chat, but he didn't expect that night, the jailer really brought him chicken legs, and chatted with him for the first time.
After the jailer left, the man looked at the oily chicken leg in front of him and was moved. Unexpectedly, the little brother really didn't lie to him, and added chicken legs to him, and even the jailer brother chatted with him a few words.
It seems that all this was instructed by the younger brother. Otherwise, how could people want to talk to him?
On this side, the man's eyes were full of tears, and he didn't know that he had completely sold himself.
On the other side, Su Wanqing said to a man in black: "Recently, the newly opened grain shops in Lingzhou, you go to check, have you delayed their business for any reason?" β
Although the man in black didn't know why, the master's words were the king's way, and he just obeyed the arrangement.
He answered, and then vanished in place.
