Su Hongyu has a gentlemanly and elegant face, and when he is middle-aged, his figure is still very good.
He is a literati, but he also knows a little self-defense, has the habit of boxing every day, and has a thin waist, and there is no sign of fortune.
is not like a martial artist, who connects himself to the muscles, and his body is slightly thin, with a bit of literati thinness.
The light robe is slow, and the bearing is remarkable, standing in the middle of a group of strong men with tigers and bears, it is very eye-catching.
"It turned out to be Lord-sama Chincha." Zhao Yongyuan smiled: "I don't know if the honorable driver is coming, I will miss the distance, please take a seat." β
turned around and yelled at Zhou Laosan: "Don't pour tea yet, there are no rules!" β
Zhou Laosan knew that he was the boss, and he greeted people with a smile and stabbed him right.
On the bright side, Zhao Yongyuan was polite to Su Hongyu, but in fact, he didn't treat him as a dish at all, and the so-called pouring tea was actually trying to find a way to take it away.
No matter how you say it, Su Hongyu is also Qincha, and he yelled at Qincha without a nose and face, and it would be a little too much for him to continue to stay and pierce his eyes.
What if Su Hong's brain is hot and he wants to explain to the boss?
That's going to tear your face and dry it.
Zhou Laosan smiled and said, "Go, go, boss, don't be angry." β
Hunched over, he trotted away.
Su Hongyu couldn't help frowning, and his face showed disgust: In the end, he is an ugly person in the market!
"Tea doesn't have to be."
Su Hongyu raised his hand impatiently and said, "This official came today, there is a case to ask Boss Zhao to cooperate with the question, I will leave if I ask clearly, and I will not disturb Boss Zhao to do business." β
"Lord, please speak."
Su Hongyu said: "Yesterday afternoon, my guards captured two thieves who committed murder on the street, and after interrogation, I learned that these two people have been in major gambling houses for many years, and have a good skill. β
Zhao Yongyuan looked around at the black gamblers in the room, quite embarrassed, and lowered his voice slightly, and said: "This matter is embarrassing, the fang did lose a sum of money three days ago......
"Oh?" Su Hongyu didn't want Zhao Yongyuan to admit it so readily, so he raised his eyebrows and said: "Since it is a false fortune, why didn't Boss Zhao report this matter to the government?" β
The thugs standing behind Zhao Yongyuan couldn't help but be stunned.
The minister seemed to be a pure layman.
The gambling house business has always been black and black, and the comparison is whose fists are hard, whose knives are fast, and there is a fart for reporting to the government?
Zhao Yongyuan said with a smile: "Adults are busy with important things, so how dare they bother with such a trivial matter."
It is inevitable to give up small wealth to avoid major disasters, and it is inevitable to do business. β
The words are not leaky, Su Hongyu can't find the slightest mistake in him even if he has the intention to find faults.
After pondering for a moment, he said: "The two thieves also confessed, and Boss Zhao sent someone to send money to those Jianghu guests, and also pointed out a clear road, saying that the Kyushu gambling house on the adjacent street was very rich, and let them go there to ask for money." β
"Nothing." Zhao Yongyuan said: "Who is spreading rumors behind the scenes?" This kind of thing that leads to trouble and frames my peers, I Zhao will never be able to do it. Others don't say it, the money boss of the Kyushu gambling house is my good brother who is married to life and death. β
The corners of Su Hongyu's mouth twitched slightly, knowing that Zhao Yongyuan was full of nonsense, but he couldn't debunk him.
Everyone knows that the Golden Hook Gambling House and the Kyushu Gambling House are competing for profit, and they are on the same page, but Zhao Yongyuan opened his eyes and said that he and the other party are brothers, what can you do with him?
I thought that Zhao Yongyuan was polite and polite, and it was easier to deal with than the gangster Zhao Laosan, but I didn't want to be a slippery loach, which was more difficult.
Su Hongyu was a little annoyed. I don't know what Tan Zhou's intention was to let him go on this trip.
He has always dealt with those noble scholars and children, literati, talkers, dustless under his eyes, proud of his bones, how have he ever seen such a sleek and vulgar person?
I was really disgusted.
In the next question, what Su Hongyu asked, Zhao Yongyuan answered. I can't fault the slightest mistake.
Su Hongyu pressed with official authority, and Zhao Yongyuan was able to block back without being hard or soft.
I can't ask anything.
After half a pillar of incense, Su Hongyu left with the soldiers, and the Golden Hook Gambling House reopened to welcome guests.
Zhao Yongyuan went upstairs to reply, and saw Huo An sitting at the desk peeling peaches, looking attentive and peeling very seriously.
In front of him was a stone-colored jade plate, and the full and complete walnut kernels were piled up like a hill, which was strange and beautiful.
"It turns out that Shangjun likes to eat walnuts."
Zhao Yongyuan glanced at the broken shells on Huo An's right hand, and said with a smile:
"Next time, Shangjun wants to eat walnuts, say, I'll let the people below peel them, this kind of rough work, how can you do it yourself."
Huo An's expression was silent, holding the iron tongs in his right hand, he made a slight effort, and seriously clamped a round walnut in his hand, as if the sky was falling, it was not as important as him peeling a walnut.
After a while, he said, "No, I don't eat it." There's something to do at hand, and time flies. β
I don't know if it's an illusion, Zhao Yongyuan felt that Huo An's voice was a little hoarse when he said this, and it sounded a little dull and depressed.
He thought to himself: What kind of quirk is this? Don't eat walnuts and prefer to peel walnuts?
Huo An put down the pliers, brushed the skin and shelled it, carefully put the peeled walnut kernels into the jade plate, patted the crumbs on his hands, and asked, "Su Hongyu is gone?" β
Zhao Yongyuan nodded and said, "I asked about the eight wicked people, but I don't know what the intention is." β
"Tan Zhou asked him to come."
Huo An said unhurriedly: "The eight wicked people are dead, Tan Zhou feels that the matter is not a coincidence, and wants to find out who is behind it." We and Kyushu Gambling House were both suspicious, but he couldn't be sure which one it was, so he sent Su Hongyu to test it. β
Three days ago, Feng Honghui, the third of the eight evildoers in the Eagle Eating Valley, was killed by Mu Yueting's entourage Lei Kang because he was molesting Mu Yueting in the Wind and Rain Building. This led to a big battle in the wind and rain building.
The seven villains teamed up with the four heroes of Taihu Lake, Guazhou Shuangsha, the "lightning gun" Zhang Yu and Lei Kang, and a maid named Hua Feiyu fought for two hours, and finally died.
The eight villains, as well as the four heroes of Taihu Lake, are all people from the rivers and lakes that Tan Zhou specially invited to Chuzhou to help in the war, and used them to consume the combat power of the Ming Palace.
After these people arrived in Chuzhou, they had nothing to do, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling all day long, and soon squandered the deposit they got from Tan Zhou.
The fan probed the news and reported it to Huo An.
So Huo An asked Zhao Yongyuan to arrange for two casino bastards who were accustomed to spending thousands of dollars to meet with this gang of people, and the two groups of people hit it off, first winning 1,000 taels of gold from the Silver Hook Gambling House, and then making a ruthless accusation from the Kyushu Gambling House on the adjacent street.
These people are all outlaws who are precarious, and they only want to be happy today, regardless of whether they live or die tomorrow. When you have money in your hand, you will naturally float.
