Volume 1 Old Dreams Chapter 85 It's dark and easy to work
"Boss, he's awake." The elf shouted.
"Count the hours, it's time to wake up." The big man walked up to Tao Yaoyao and squatted down.
"You ...... What are you going to do? With a frightened face, she moved back.
"Don't be afraid, as long as you are obedient, we will not do anything to you. You'll be gone tomorrow at noon. Dahan said with a smile, he was very satisfied with Taoyao's expression. Originally, he thought he was a bold master, and the co-author was a cowardly who could only soak women.
"Really? Rest assured, my family will come to ransom me. Tao said gratefully.
"Of course, Childe is also hungry, we don't have big fish and meat, so Childe will eat it." The big man gave the thin man a look, and the thin man put a bowl beside Tao Yaoyao.
Tao Xiaoyao glanced at it, and there was only white rice in it, not even a drop of oil.
"Is this what people eat! My son wants to eat fish! Momo's eyes widened.
"Hahahaha! Do you still want to eat fish? That's what we have, love to eat or not! The thin man scoffed.
"You guys! I'm tied up how to eat! Tao Yaoyao said angrily.
"Just eat it!" The thin man laughed even louder.
"Alright." Dahan stopped, "This son, we have this food, as for this rope, we still have to wronged you, and we can rest assured that you are tied up." After saying that, the big man got up and walked out, and although he said sorry, he was full of jokes. He is also afraid that the peach will be eaten, which means that he is a person who can bend and stretch, so it seems that he is indeed a son who does not understand the world.
"Don't deceive too much!" Tao Yao saw that the people were gone, and shouted loudly.
"Boss, will we really let this kid go tomorrow? What if he comes back ambitious? "The dwarf was a little worried.
"Why, he doesn't even know how. Besides, he's been locked up in a warehouse, and he's not a god! The thin man retorted dismissively.
"But we don't know where this kid came from, in case this kid ......" The dwarf was still a little worried.
"If you get the silver tomorrow, you will—" The big man thought for a moment and made a cut gesture.
"Boss, don't worry. We'll take care of that. As soon as the thin man heard this, he took the initiative to say, he had already seen that Tao Yao was unhappy, that is, when he let go of the girl and watched the two of them, you and me.
"Alright, let's go to bed early. You'll have to cheer up tomorrow. ”
"Boss Xie." The thin man smiled lewdly, his mind was now full of what he was going to do after he got the money.
Here, Tao Yaoyao threw the rope after the three of them left, stood up, and continued to check the bags. As it got dark and the warehouse was dark, she found an old dress to change into and draped her old robe over a long bag.
"Fortunately, these three people are thieves because they are afraid of being discovered, so they dare not lock the door of the warehouse, it seems that these people are the little heads of this warehouse." Tao Yaoyao muttered to herself.
Tao Xiaoyao opened the door of the warehouse little by little, looked out along the gap, and then opened it a little more, poked out half of his head, and found that there was no one around, so he walked out quietly.
Tao Yaoyao walked cautiously along the wall, sure enough, it was by the river, and there were a few people patrolling not far away, maybe she went directly into the base camp, so there was no particularly tight defense, which is also a place of good fortune.
Tao Yaoyao looked up and saw that there was a room that was higher than the others, and she slowly approached it, the rooms here were relatively simple, and she could roughly hear the sound inside by pressing her ear to the wall.
"Big brother, will it be too hasty tomorrow morning?" Isn't this the voice of the big man, why is there a big brother in the house?
"It must be advanced, two days are important days, this deal must be completed tomorrow morning!" A slightly muffled voice came. "Third child, are you not confident? Why don't I go. "It's a shrill male voice.
"Er, what do you mean! I'm just cautious, if it's like you last time, we won't be able to do this deal! The big man mocked loudly.
"What do you call me last time! That's someone greedy for small profits, otherwise how would it be discovered! If I were to catch him, I would have skinned him!" The shrill voice was tinged with a hint of sinisterity.
"Second brother, where is this person you are talking about?" Dahan said disdainfully.
"Hmph, maybe it's someone below you! The people below you are the most unruly! The second child retorted.
"You're spewing blood! It's your responsibility! If it weren't for the big brother wiping your ass, you would have gone to jail a long time ago! Dahan retorted loudly.
"What are you talking about, you can take the opportunity to swallow the dock if I squat in prison, right! I'm telling you, don't think about it! Maybe you sent someone out of the news! The second child couldn't help but quarrel with him loudly.
"You!" The big man clenched his fists.
"Alright, okay, can you two be a little less arguing! In short, tomorrow morning's business must be done, and there can be no mistakes! The big brother spoke up to stop the two from continuing to fight.
"Big brother, don't worry." Dahan took a breath and agreed.
"Humph!" The second child was not convinced.
"Second child, you are with the third child tomorrow morning, just in case." The eldest brother glanced at the second child and said.
"Okay, big brother." The second child instantly changed his face, with a triumphant smile on his face.
"Big brother, this is not in accordance with the rules." Dahan was a little unhappy.
"What kind of rules are not in order, I am kindly afraid that something will go wrong with you." The second retorted.
"Alright, half of the second one's share will be taken out of me." The eldest brother said slowly.
"This-" The big man hesitated, this second brother always spoiled his business.
"So it was decided." The eldest brother seemed to have made up his mind.
Tao Xiaoyao suddenly heard a trace of footsteps coming from the side, and the moonlight sprinkled on the wall, imprinting the shadow of a person clearly.
Damn, isn't it, so unlucky, so found out? She mourned in silence in her heart, ready for the verdict of fate.
"Shhhh Taoyao's mouth was suddenly covered with one hand.
Why is this sound so familiar! It's -
Tao Yaoyao nodded, and the hand covering her mouth easily opened.
"How did you find it?" Tao Yaoyao asked softly.
"This is not the place to talk, and this place should not be lingered for long." The man scratched the tip of her nose and whispered in her ear.
"Follow me." Tao Yaoyao looked around and beckoned to him.
The two of them returned to the warehouse where Tao Yaoyao was tied up.
"Tell me, how did you find it?" There was indescribable joy in Tao Yaoyao's heart.
"I'm worried about you, so I'm here." Listening to this voice, Tao Xiaoyao felt an infinite sense of security.
"Who wants you to worry?" Tao Xiaoxiao said the opposite.
"Xiao'er, didn't you promise that I wouldn't take any more risks?"
"I didn't take any chances, how could these shrimp soldiers and crabs be my opponents?" Tao Xiaoyao said as she pulled out a bag of powdery unidentified objects on her body.
"You." If this person is not Qing Ye Zhuo, who else will there be?
He originally planned to recruit Liang Gaoliang to discuss the matter of private salt, but someone reported it at that time, and there was no actual evidence. Who knew that Liang Gaoliang entered the palace with fire, he rarely saw Liang Gaoliang's expression, and he felt that there was something bad at that time. Sure enough, Liang Gaoliang said that the maidservant of the Tao family came to him, saying that her young lady had been kidnapped by someone else, and that person seemed to be from the Salt Gang, because he found that the person had left at the gambling table.
Qing Yezhuo immediately sent someone to investigate the situation at that time, and finally learned that Tao Yaoyao was tied to the dock headquarters of the Salt Gang, and with her self-protection ability, she would not suffer a loss once, and she would be tripped on the same stone again. Combined with the matter of private salt, he could vaguely guess the purpose of Tao Yaoyao, so he sneaked in alone and quietly to find her, and asked Liang Gaoliang to lead people to surround this place secretly.
"I listen to them, it seems that the eldest brother is going to make a big deal tomorrow morning, could it be the smuggler of official salt?" Tao Yaoyao asked.
"It should be." Qing Yezhuo took out a notebook.
"There are some account records on it, but it doesn't directly write what it is, only some numbers in and out." Then he handed the notebook to Tao Yaoyao.
Tao Yaoyao carefully flipped through a few pages.
"You see, this should represent the number of bags, almost all of them are whole. These numbers are exactly the same when divided by the number of bags, probably the unit price per bag, and this number should represent the total price. There is no pattern to this grid, and if you guess correctly, it is the date and the hour of the transaction. These people are really cautious. "Tao Yaoyao is also a person who has been admitted to the doctorate, and if you can't see the simple law of numbers, you can jump into the river, but this is very good in the eyes of the ancients.
"You're really smart." A woman can see at a glance what these numbers represent, and it is truly special.
"I don't listen to that big brother's voice like Tao Wancheng. It's familiar. Tao Xiaoyao recalled, but after all, she was not very sure about the wall.
"I have already asked Biyun to go back to the Tao Mansion to see, your father is in the mansion and does not know about it." Qing Yezhuo explained.
"So this has nothing to do with him?" Tao Yaoyao asked.
Nightburn nodded.
"By the way, you're going to take a look at those." Peach leads Nightburn to the hidden sacks of salt.
Nightshade ignited a fire fold.
"Is this—salt?"
"Yes, it may be that someone inside the Salt Gang hid it privately, or it may be because of this that someone found out and reported it." Tao Xiaoyao heard the conversation between the second and third children, and the last deal was not done, which should be the reason.
"I see." Nightburn nodded.
"And that big brother must be a powerful person, and things like selling illicit salt can be covered up, not ordinary people can do it." Tao Yaoyao almost retold the conversation between the two.
"So, this man is an official?" Nightburn fell into thought.
"You mean, this person is—" Nightburn looked up sharply.
"Not sure yet." Tao Yao saw that he had a heart with him, and he was a little happier in his heart.
"Xiao'er, do you want to go back to the palace with me now?" Qing Yezhuo was still not worried that Tao Yao was here, he didn't want any danger to happen to her.
"No, I can't go back yet, otherwise I will startle the snakes, and tomorrow they will get all the stolen goods!" Tao Yaoyao said firmly.
"Okay, then I'll be with you." Qing Yezhuo seemed to have guessed that Tao Yaoyao would say this, but just brushed her green silk.
"You?" Through the faint light of the fire, Tao Xiaoxiao saw him looking at him affectionately.
At this time, the fire broke out, and it was pitch black again.
"Child—" Nightburn's voice became a little ambiguous and languid.
"Huh?" Tao Yaoyao blushed, but unfortunately it was too dark to see.
"I miss you." A word I made Tao Yao even more excited.
"No, this is the head of the Salt Gang—" Momo was gagged by a warm lip before she could finish speaking.
"Hmm-" The slender waist was tightly clasped, and she couldn't hide if she wanted to, so she could only cooperate.
"No, no!" Tao Yao saw that someone had already made other moves, so she hurried to stop it.
"Xiao'er, you look so good in men's clothes!" Nightburn's voice seemed to have become hoarse.
Does this count as flirting? Also, where can I look good in my tattered clothes?
"You-ah-" Tao Yaoyao exclaimed softly, hurriedly covering her mouth with her hand.
"Is it okay?" Nightburn bites her earlobe.
"No-" Tao Yaoyao was about to say no, someone had already started working.
Big brother, since you're like this, why are you asking me to do it? Poor Tao Xiaoyao still has to control herself from making a sound.
In the dead of night, in a corner, Tao Xiaoxiao was held in a thick arms and fell asleep.
Tomorrow, the show really begins.
