Chapter 559: The Former Rich Merchant

When I was in self-pity and self-love, I saw Sun Xiaochuan come back listlessly. When he walked to the door of the carriage, he said to Wu Mian and Gui Bugui with a smile on his face: "A few old immortals, the only one of the three people you said has heard of Zhang Mingfang. When it was said that it was the Seven Kingdoms, this surnamed Zhang was the richest man in Linzi City, but he had been dead for hundreds of years. There were no children left, and as soon as people died, the money was filled into the treasury. As for He Chongyuan and Tan Chong, no one has heard of them at all. Let's see if you can get another name? ”

"It's just these three people, and there is no one more." There was no intention of opening the door to let Sun Xiaochuan get into the car, he glanced at the man with a smile, and then continued: "When you find those three people, I will give you those hundreds of boxes of golden cakes." Old man, I mean what I say, I don't delay or owe. ”

After Sun Xiaochuan smiled bitterly, he turned around and continued to inquire about the whereabouts of Zhang Mingfang, He Chongyuan and Tan Chong from the people who came and went on the street.

"Old fellow, with his method of inquiry, he won't find out the whereabouts of those three people at night, right?" At this time, Bai Wuqiu, who had listened to the story, couldn't help but speak: "The names are all fake, and I don't know if I've used them or not—by the way, do you think that Ying Lu will really die?" ”

"No" Gui Gui smiled slightly at his cheap son, and then continued: "Although Zhang Mingfang is not a monk, he is also an old man I have seen a rare smart person, and it is impossible for a person who can earn such a large share of the family business to be simple. And if Zhanzu reappeared again over the years, it would be impossible for Guangren not to know. The most likely thing is that just like the last time he cheated to death, Zhang Mingfang had already transferred the money he earned, and then broke the news of his death. He himself lived slowly with the money, and when the world forgot about him, he came out again with another identity, and he was still a wealthy businessman in Qi at that time. ”

In the past few years, I have more or less begun to learn to use my brain. After listening to the words of his 'biological father', it was even more incomprehensible: "Then old guy, you go directly to Qi State, who is the richest?" Why bother with this? ”

After laughing, "Old man, I'm asking this Sun Xiaochuan to pass the word, whether I will return or not......"

As Bai Wuqiu guessed, Sun Xiaochuan asked on the street for a whole day, but there was no news of the names of those three people. In the end, it was after dark, Liu Xi, who was dressed as Guangren, sent someone to find him back, and this was the only way to let go of Sun Xiaochuan, who was already exhausted.

returned to the pavilion, Liu Xi first retired from all the pavilion posts, and after replacing them with his own people, he gave a teacher salute to Wu Mian and Gui Bugui. After the ceremony, he smiled and said to the two people: "I haven't seen two gentlemen for more than ten years, and the two gentlemen are still in style." Ogawa and I have looked for two gentlemen a few times, but unfortunately the opportunity did not come. Today's incident made the two gentlemen laugh, and I, who was an uncle, also wanted to cheat my nephew out of money. ”

"It seems that His Highness already knows the suffering of this world." After smiling, he continued: "It has been difficult for His Highness for so many years, and it is also the old man who I thought of it inconsiderately, but this meeting is good, His Royal Highness should also come to Jitai, although it will not return to the period of King Huainan back then, but it is still okay to be a rich man." It's better than messing around with this kid Xiaochuan. ”

Liu Xi said: "Mr. Gui, although the past few years have been hard, but there is also some fun. In the past, the king of Huainan would never have dreamed that there would be such a day, and the two gentlemen did not have to worry about Liu Xi, instead of the king of Huainan in the past, it was better to play the world like this. ”

"Don't, Your Highness, you've had enough of your good life, Xiaochuan, I still want to taste something." At this time, hearing Liu Xiyou's rejection of the hundreds of boxes of gold cakes, Sun Xiaochuan hurriedly interjected. After a pause, he continued: "Your Highness, we have lived for more than ten years, and we will not die of hunger. I finally saw the two old immortals again today, why do you have to keep some family money? I don't know when I will see the two old immortals next time. Gold cake or something, one more piece is a piece. ”

He smiled and said to Sun Xiaochuan: "Then you have to find those three people first." ”

Liu Xi didn't know what was going on, and at that moment, Sun Xiaochuan told His Royal Highness the former King of Huainan about the day's events again. Just as he finished speaking, a postman from the pavilion outside came to tell him that someone outside had come to find a person called "No Return".

Hearing that someone was coming to him, the old guy bared his teeth and smiled at Wu Mian beside him, and then asked Liu Xi to send a message to invite someone in.

The one who came to find the one who would not return was a woman in her forties, looking at her ragged appearance, she really did not look like the person sent by the richest man in the Qi country. After the woman saw Wu Mian and these people, she said timidly: "Who is the one who calls the return or not?" Someone asked me to come to you. Say you can give me fifty dollars......"

"Fifty Dollars ......" There was no surprise on the face of the returnee, and after glancing at the woman with a smile, he took out a small gold coin from his bosom and handed it to the woman, and then continued: "I don't have any change for the old man, so you don't have to look for this." What else did the guy who asked me to give you money say? ”

The woman put the gold in her mouth and bit it, and then her face turned red with excitement. After putting the gold in his arms, he felt unsafe, and finally held the gold tightly in his hand. It was only after I was busy that I remembered the old guy's question. At that moment, he replied timidly: "He said that you would give me fifty dollars, and he didn't say anything else - thank you for the ...... of the master" Halfway through speaking, he remembered to thank the old guy in front of him.

"I know that I have a treasure on my body, and I know that I am careful everywhere. But since I said fifty dollars, then I will give you enough old man" I didn't care about the woman's answer, and after laughing, he said to Sun Xiaochuan on the side: "Give this woman fifty dollars, one no more and one less." ”

For the sake of the hundreds of boxes of gold cakes, Sun Xiaochuan gave the old woman fifty yuan. Then he sent her out of the pavilion, and when he left, he said to him: "Don't find someone to embarrass her, the person who should come will come again in a while." ”

Sun Xiaochuan is a smart man, and he knows that he has his own calculations whether he will return or not, so he doesn't have to arrange someone to follow this woman at the moment. At the moment, he continued to find a way to grind Wu Mianhe and whether he would return, although he didn't find it for a while, but it's always okay to give a few boxes of gold cakes as a deposit, right?

Just when Sun Xiaochuan was grinding and chirping, Yi Cheng came over to Tongbing again. It was said that a group of officers and soldiers who were on patrol at night wanted to ask to see the returnees, saying that they wanted to invite him to the old man's house. I can't say what the other party is going to do. Just when Sun Xiaochuan was about to inquire about something more, Wu Mian, who had not spoken much, suddenly stood up from his seat. After glancing at the returnee next to him, he said, "People have already come to pick you up, don't you mind having another mixed meal, right?" ”

"I'm afraid you won't follow the rice." I just said a word about whether to return or not, and then I still took my cheap son and Xiao Rensan, who had already woken up. The four of them went out of the gate of the pavilion together, and Liu Xi and Sun Xiaochuan also wanted to come together. However, the old guy was worried that the white-haired man who had no magic skills would be frightened by the crowd, and in the end, the four of them left the pavilion and saw a dozen soldiers waiting at the gate.

These dozen or so people are indeed soldiers who are on duty tonight, and after seeing a few people who are not returning, they came out. Regardless of the other three people who came out together, after a few polite words, he took these four people out of the pavilion and turned around along Linzicheng Street.

After turning half of Linzi City, Bai Wuqiu finally couldn't help but say, "Didn't you take a few of us fools to accompany you on a night patrol?" Why does Linzi City still have such rules? ”

The little official at the head turned around and smiled at Bai Wuqiu, then pointed to a place on the side of the street and said, "Coincidentally, when you spoke, we were already in ......."
