Chapter 137: The Profiteers of the Country
The official coughed, "Actually, it doesn't mean that it looks alike, it just feels like it." ”
Xie Jingyi's face is even darker, and it looks like it's okay to say that the emperor has made so many romantic debts, and a face is still good, she can reluctantly take it as a compliment.
But what does it feel like?
From her face, did the official family see that she was as scumbag as the previous emperor?
When the official family saw Xie Jingyi's complicated little eyes, he also remembered the infamous reputation of the former emperor, and asked decisively, "Where are we hiding?" ”
Xie Jingyi stood up, "You come with me." ”
Although she is calm on the outside, she has already set off turbulent waves inside.
So in her last life, she was able to be the head of her mother, and the official family trusted her so much, and always loved to be coquettish in front of her, not because she was amazing, but because he felt his father's love from her?
Xie Jingyi suddenly felt that she was too wise to spend a lot of money to buy this shop, and she had an urge to climb into the coffin and bury herself on the spot.
She thought, and pushed open the wall door with some self-defeat.
"Go over there." The official was stunned for a moment, stretched out his hand curiously, touched the door, and opened his eyes excitedly.
"This turned out to be a real door, it looks like it was painted, I didn't expect it, it can really be opened, how did it open, where is the mechanism?"
Xie Jingyi pointed to the eyes of the painted door god.
The official family stared at it more and more curiously, and followed Xie Jingyi through, "This is the shop next door?" Aren't you the little lady of the Marquis of Yongping's mansion, how can you open a funeral shop here......"
Xie Jingyi was a little embarrassed by him, "Personal preference." ”
The official family suddenly realized, "I thought that Chai Er was the only one in the world who liked this, but I didn't expect that there would be people who were like-minded with him." But why do you want to draw a door on the wall, if you don't paint anything, it won't attract attention at all, and people won't come over. ”
Xie Jingyi pricked up his ears and listened to the movement outside, made a shushing gesture, and pointed to the room next door, where someone came in in the room where they were staying.
The official's eyes darkened, "Woo Woo Tiger ......"
Xie Jingyi didn't explain, lifted a board, pushed the official family and went down to the basement.
"Don't worry, Wu Wuhu can't die, but two fists are hard to beat four hands, there are six of them, and they can always find one to find you. I threw firecrackers before, and depending on the direction in which we threw them, I was able to tell where we were hiding. ”
The official family was stunned, "Do you know Wu Wuhu?" ”
Xie Jingyi nodded, "I met him today, and his uncle was a transfer envoy from the Liangzhejiang Road Pass. ”
As if he remembered something, the official clapped his hands lightly, and received a warning look from Xie Jingyi.
The official shrunk his neck, "I remembered, Qingmiao eighteen, you are Xie San who wrote Qingmiao eighteen together with Chai Er." ”
Xie Jingyi smiled, pricked up his ears to listen to the movement, and touched the wall of the cellar again, and the door of the cellar opened again, "Let's go back, after they searched the first one, it's time to search the second one." ”
Seeing Xie Jingyi relaxed, the official family also relaxed unconsciously.
"Don't you wonder, I'm a businessman, why do I have such a strange shop with a mechanism?"
The official nodded and said honestly, "Originally, I suspected that you were in league with them, but when I remembered that you were the Xie San from Hangzhou, I didn't doubt it." I've heard Chai Er talk about you. ”
Xie Jingyi's expression became strange, "What did Chai Er say about me?" ”
The official touched his chin, "Chai Er said that you are very smart, far better than men." ”
Xie Jingyi's nose was sour, "This whole street is selling lanterns, coffins, and firecrackers. Why do people come to me to buy it? So I opened two adjacent shops, the first one selling the most expensive whole street, and the second selling the cheapest whole street. ”
"I love cheap people, and when I went to the first place, and then I went to the second place, I felt that I had made a lot of money, and I happily bought it back. I firmly believe that even if you are dead, you will return to the first place after shopping, and there is always nothing wrong with buying the most expensive one. ”
The official pointed to the invisible door of the cellar and said with difficulty, "So the first and second are actually the same for sale?" No wonder people say, no business, no treachery! ”
Xie Jingyi shook his head, "It's the same, it's not the same." The first one sells face, and the second sells affordability, and everyone takes what they need. ”
The official thought about it, as if something was wrong, but he didn't understand it for a while.
Xie Jingyi blinked, "I have earned a lot, and I have paid more taxes to the treasury." ”
When the official heard this, he nodded violently, "Okay, very good." ”
Why did he want to reform the law, it was really that the treasury was all wiped out by his own father...... As an emperor, he felt that money was really important!
"Then why do you want to make the door so complicated, isn't it more convenient to enter and exit directly?"
Xie Jingyi laughed, "Some things, if you don't expose them, everyone will be happy." If it is broken, it is inevitable that some people will be angry. ”
She said, pricking up her ears and listening, "Chai Er is here, we can go up." ”
The official family was stunned, "How did you know that Chai Er was here?" ”
Xie Jingyi stretched out his hand and pushed open the door of the cellar, and turned around to pull the official's house, "I can hear his footsteps." ”
As she spoke, she saw Chai Youchen squatting at the mouth of the cellar and looking at her meaningfully, "My footsteps, what's so special?" ”
Xie Jingyi smiled and said nothing, "Everyone is caught?" ”
Chai Youchen nodded, stretched out his hand to pull up the official family, greeted him first, and then said, "It's okay if the official family is fine, six assassins, three of them were killed by General Wu Xiao, and the remaining three were captured." ”
The official family breathed a sigh of relief, "Is there something wrong with the woo tiger?" ”
"A little injury doesn't get in the way." As he spoke, Wu Wuhu rushed in, his huge back blocking all the light at the door.
When I saw Xie Jingyi standing inside, I exclaimed, "It turned out to be Third Sister Xie, I'm a mother, I'm scared to death, I'm still scolding which son of a girl stole the official family while I wasn't paying attention, it turned out to be Third Sister Xie!" If the official family is injured, my father will have to cut off my head! ”
"Thanks to you, otherwise, I'm afraid I will have to lose my arm, leg and head today, so that I can hold on until the reinforcements come! The official family, Wu Wuhu went the wrong way, causing the official family to be frightened, it is a capital crime! Wu Wuhu said, and knelt down with a pop.
The official hurriedly walked over and helped Wu Wuhu up, "How can I blame you?" Blame the Assassins! Today, I escaped safely, thanks to you and thank you. ”
Xie Jingyi smiled, but his eyes were fixed on the six people at the door.
She first looked at the three corpses on the ground, then at the three people who were tightly bound, frowned, and shook her head at Chai Youchen.
Earlier, she had seen the man with red dots on his hands, and he was not among them.
