Chapter 158: Coercion and Temptation
Zhong Ling put on his night clothes, pushed open the door and walked to the courtyard, there was already a person waiting in the thick fog, heard the footsteps, turned around, looked at Zhong Ling, and smiled gently: "Ling'er!" ”
"It's not early, let's go!" Zhong Ling lifted his toes lightly and climbed over the wall, and Shen Yichi followed closely and turned out.
There were few pedestrians at night, and passing by the osmanthus tree, Zhong Ling was very cautious to distance himself from Shen Yichi.
Shen Yichi couldn't help but chuckle in exchange for Zhong Ling's warning gaze.
Hurriedly smiled, and stepped forward to make a statement: "It's me who is wrong, this move is really Meng Lang." ”
"Dengzi!" Zhong Ling secretly took a sip, but the corners of his mouth unconsciously raised.
Shen Yichi's shallow voice came from behind him: "Next time, I will definitely let you know." ”
Zhong Ling's heart was beating so hard that she couldn't help but speed up her pace, and for a moment she was speechless, she heard Shen Yichi's shallow voice: "Ling'er." ”
"Huh?" Zhong Ling stopped, and before he could turn around, he heard his voice as thin as a mosquito and a fly: "Now, I can be regarded as informing you!" ”
Zhong Ling turned around and saw his thin figure approaching step by step, looking weak, but it seemed to be enough to block all the wind and rain for her.
Zhong Ling smelled the faint fragrance of plum on his body, and the night was quiet, and he could only hear the heartbeat of the two of them close at hand.
His face was clear, his thin lips sealed her words before she could speak, not like the first taste, the tip of his tongue was against her teeth, Zhong Ling's body was stiff, as if guarding the last line of defense, gritting his teeth and refusing to relax, he wanted to retreat, but crashed into his palm.
The strength she was proud of didn't even take advantage of him at the moment, he tactfully tacted, patiently whirling with her, but for a moment, the world was spinning, Zhong Ling couldn't help but pant heavily, but he asked him to find the flaw, pry open her tightly locked teeth, and taste the fragrance of the tip of his tongue.
Zhong Ling's mind was blank, and he let him lead him to indulge in the dark night.
I don't know how long it took, the heavens and the earth changed color, and the hand behind her back finally let go, and Shen Yichi's helpless voice sounded in her ears: "Ling'er, gasp!" ”
Zhong Ling woke up like a dream, gasped for breath, came back to his senses, only to see Shen Yichi's eyes that seemed to be smiling, gritted his teeth, couldn't hold back a word for a long time, and turned around and left angrily.
Shen Yichi raised his hand to stroke his lips, with a light smile in his eyes, he didn't have much experience in this matter, he was worried for a long time, he thought he would lose face, but fortunately, he was a little better than his little girl, and he could earn back a little face.
Zhong Ling's heart was chaotic and disorganized, and he couldn't calm down until he stood outside the rouge shop, so he simply closed his eyes and silently recited the heart purification mantra twice, and finally calmed down.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Shen Yichi's figure again, and his heart, which was so easy to calm down, jumped again.
Avoiding Shen Yichi's gaze, he knocked on the door in front of him.
knocked on the first side, but there was no reaction, Zhong Ling was already annoyed, and he was even more impatient at the moment, so he couldn't help but increase his strength and knocked on the door with a bang.
Not long after,
The door was opened, and the boss stood behind the door, only hastily draped in a robe, holding a lamp in his hand, and looked at the two of them sleepily.
Seeing their faces clearly, Deng Shi sobered up a little: "Who are you two?" ”
"Buy a shop!" Zhong Ling didn't have a good airway to speak, so he pushed him away and walked in.
Shen Yichi nodded at him and walked in after Zhong Ling.
The boss is miserable, where is the third watch to buy a shop in the middle of the night?
Zhong Ling walked to the table and sat down, his posture was unruly, the boss turned around and lit the oil lamp, and made a pot of tea for the two, quite attentive.
"Have you thought about it? These five hundred taels of silver are really accounting. ”
Zhong Ling picked up the cup and put it in the water, and said leisurely: "It's indeed here to buy a shop!" ”
When the boss heard this, his eyes lit up, and he turned around to get the land deed, and heard Shen Yichi say: "It's just that five hundred taels of silver is really too much!" ”
"If you want it sincerely, four hundred taels of silver will be made!"
Zhong Ling sneered: "Don't hide it, the two of us, only took out two hundred taels of silver!" ”
"Two hundred taels?" The boss's face changed: "Didn't you come to play me at night!" ”
He had to ask for three hundred taels of silver when he first went out!
"Only two hundred taels! If you don't sell it, it's over! Zhong Ling put down the cup.
The boss had anger on his face, and he was about to drive the two away, scolding and scolding: "What shop do you have no money to buy?" Isn't it a big night to come to the door and respond to people? Let's go! ”
The two of them really turned around and left.
"I was kind enough to help him, but he didn't appreciate it!" Zhong Ling shook his head.
Shen Yichi comforted: "In this case, we don't care, we can help left and right." ”
The boss became suspicious and shouted to stop the two of them.
"What do you mean by what you just said?"
Zhong Ling raised his eyebrows at Shen Yichi, and Shen Yichi understood and stopped.
The boss quickly followed and grabbed his sleeve: "You have made it clear!" ”
"I sincerely want to buy your shop, today I inquired in the capital, and met the little guy in the Shijia salt shop, the little guy said, Shi Jingtian also took a fancy to your shop, and wanted to take it for himself, and when the time comes, I am afraid that your shop will not even be able to sell two hundred taels."
The boss was shocked, but still half-convinced.
"How many years have I been here? All these years have been peaceful, why does he take a fancy to my shop now? ”
"Don't you know that he is going to hook up with the Imperial City recently and sell official salt? Since it is selling official salt, it must be necessary to recruit more people, if you buy more shops, how can you recruit people? Zhong Ling spoke on the side.
The boss's eyes widened, he already had five points of faith at this moment, his feet were weak, and he was about to stand unsteadily, Shen Yichi helped him weakly, and he stood firmly.
Zhong Ling took the opportunity to speak: "Shi Jingtian is insatiable, and he has done a lot of evil in Modu over the years, but as the saying goes, money can make ghosts grind, and he has a lot of money, so he can understand his hands and eyes."
God, at least in this desert capital, no one can help him, if he forcibly occupies your shop, what can you do except obediently give it up? ”
yes, what can you do but give it up?
"I ......" The boss hesitated for a long time, unable to say a whole sentence, obviously frightened.
"Why don't you sell it to us, and go back to the countryside sooner!" Zhong Ling persuaded with kind words.
When these words fell on the ears of the boss, he felt that he had lost face, so he made a foreigner look down on him, and he was angry and scolded: "He is just his hands and eyes are all over the sky, where is the reason to forcibly occupy people's shops?" Even if he sues the county master, he doesn't take care of it! ”
"Having said that, but over the years, he has given the county order a small amount of silver? Besides, after careful inspection, you really can't find any flaws in this shop? Shen Yichi's eyes were as bright as torches, and the boss's heart was like numbness.
Just as I didn't know what to do, there was an angry roar from the back room.
"Don't listen to them!"
Zhong Ling looked up and saw the woman behind the hall, obviously just getting up, with messy hair and disheveled clothes.
The boss hurriedly stepped forward and hugged her: "Why did you come out?" It's cold at night, go to bed and stay there! ”
The proprietress pushed him away, glared at Zhong Ling and said, "Little girl, if things are really as you say, why do you want to take down our shop?" I'm afraid it's too late to hide! ”
"That's right!" The boss woke up like a dream and looked at the two of them vigilantly: "You said this, but you just want to buy this shop from me at a low price?" ”
Zhong Ling looked at them with his hands in his hands, and said lightly: "What am I afraid of, I am driving a dart game, I really want to make a move, I really can't tell you who will kill the deer, to tell you the truth, we want to take down this shop, just to get a piece of the pie in the hands of Shi Jingtian, if you are interested, you will sell the shop to us, if you are not interested, then, don't blame us for being polite!" ”
After that, she raised her hand suddenly, showing a jasper sword glowing with cold light, and the proprietress screamed in fright and hid in the boss's arms, both of whom turned pale.
Zhong Ling was a little annoyed when she saw this, how could she say that the woman was also pregnant, if she was scared out of a bad way, then she would be a big sin.
The boss trembled and protected his daughter-in-law behind him, swallowed his saliva, and said: "If you want a shop, give it to you, why bother with swords, my wife is pregnant, I really can't see this, and please show mercy to the two subordinates, mercy!" ”
Hearing this, Zhong Ling put away his sword.
"I didn't want to do this, but we are really anxious, tomorrow morning Shi Jingtian is coming, if we don't start first, this shop is his!"
The boss wiped his sweat and asked cautiously: "Dare to ask the two, but there is a grudge against the stone?" ”
Otherwise, why make such a big fuss?
Shen Yichi looked at him quietly for a long time, and the boss who looked directly at him was furious, and then he showed a smile of unknown meaning: "Shopkeeper, there are some things, it's better not to know, the more you know, the sooner you die!" ”
say
After that, he raised his hand and made a gesture to wipe his neck, which frightened the boss and made his feet weak, and he was about to fall to the ground again.
It's really, too unfrightening.
He took out two silver tickets from his arms, put them on the table, and said lightly: "Tomorrow morning, I will bring people here, and when the time comes, I will see the title deed and house deed of the shop!" ”
With that, he got up and walked out, Zhong Ling turned around and glanced at them leisurely, and also walked out.
When the two finally left, the two took off their guards, collapsed on the ground, hugged their heads and cried.
"How did you happen to this kind of thing!" The boss cried with a sad face, he was going to sell the shop and leave, why was his life threatened?
The proprietress also cried with hatred: ", whose shop is not good?" Fancy us? ”
The boss remembered Zhong Ling's cruel gaze when he left, his body trembled, and asked in a low voice: "I saw that those two people were not good, and they came to the stone to shock the sky!" Didn't he offend someone? ”
"That black-hearted one, there are more people who have offended, and the county ordered a family of more than a dozen people, and he didn't kill him!"
As soon as the words fell, both of them were stunned, and after a while, the proprietress said lightly: "I look at the handsome appearance of the young man just now, do you still remember the little boy who was ordered by the first county?" Since childhood, it has been white and cute, and at that time it was spread all over the streets and alleys, and in time, the little boy must be a great character! ”
