Chapter 499: Right in the Middle
After receiving such a valuable gift, Yan Xiaoshan had no reason not to forgive Shopkeeper Shen.
"Brother Shen, it's not the junior brother who said you, the younger brother told you such a secret identity, I only revealed it to you at the risk of being punished by my superiors, but you are like this, the younger brother is really sad..."
Shopkeeper Shen patted Yan Xiaoshan's back and said: "Brother Yan, it's my brother's fault, my brother will never be like this again in the future, you look at it, we will be iron in the future." Say it's useless, you just watch it. ”
Even if this knot is untied, at least in Shen's shopkeeper's opinion.
The two drank seven or eight more glasses of wine. Shopkeeper Shen finally began to get down to business: "Xiaoshan, brother, I have something to ask you. ”
"Brother Shen still has something to ask me, don't be kidding, you are so rich, you can't do anything, how can you ask me for something?" Yan Xiaoshan showed a look of disbelief.
Shopkeeper Shen sighed and said: "Don't look at me as rich, it's not what you think, I'm rich, but it's all thrown in the relationship in business, how can it be so simple." Besides, I have big people watching from above, and I'm not that free. I want you to help me, I won't hide it from you, in fact, it's my confession, I really can't help it, I don't have such a powerful connection, I can only think of you, brother, your Cao Gang is the largest gang in the world, there are many people, and it should be no problem to do that. ”
Yan Xiaoshan said: "Brother, just say it, it's my duty to do what I can, if I don't have that ability, then I can only be sorry for my brother." ”
Shopkeeper Shen nodded and said, "That's the case, I want you to help investigate the situation of that Chen Letian, all his movements and circumstances during this time, okay?"
Yan Xiaoshan was shocked in his heart, but there was no wave on his face: "Which Chen Letian? Are you talking about Chen Letian from the capital? What are you doing with him?"
Shopkeeper Shen drank a glass of wine and said: "It's that Chen Letian, why do you want to check him, to be honest, I don't know, I can guess a little, but I can't say." Brother, I'm not hiding it from you, it's true that the above requirements can't be said, if I say my head, I have to move, I hope you can understand, brother. ”
Yan Xiaoshan thought to himself: I can understand, if you dare to reveal the identity of the county lord, then you will only have one death. It's not easy to make money behind the county lord. said: "I understand, just like I can't tell you the secrets of our Cao Gang." ”
"How about it, can you help my brother with this?" Shopkeeper Shen looked at Yan Xiaoshan.
Yan Xiaoshan hesitated for a moment: "Brother Shen, that Chen Letian is not an ordinary person, he is a cultivator of the Qingtian Pavilion Cultivation Academy, and he is the commander of the Northern Army, and these two identities are not something we can afford to provoke." Although our Cao Gang is big, we don't want to mess with such a person. The reason why our Cao Gang has been able to go so big is because of the support of friends on the rivers and lakes, and they don't dare to offend people easily. ”
Shopkeeper Shen shook his head and said, Xiaoshan, you misunderstood. I'm not asking you to make enemies of him, I'm just asking you to help track down his tracks during this time. All you have to do is tell me his whereabouts, like what he's doing today, he's been going to be... What did you do anywhere. I don't want you to do anything else, but to put it simply, you just arrange for a pair of eyes to keep an eye on him, and do your best to get as much information as you can to give me. I know that your Cao Gang also does some work of inquiring about things, just trading.
Yan Xiaoshan lowered his head and thought.
The shopkeeper Shen said: "For half a month, I will pay five thousand taels of silver first." ”
Yan Xiaoshan hurriedly said: "It's not about money, it's about whether it's risky or not." I am worried that once Chen Letian finds out, it will affect the Cao Gang, and I will not be able to eat and leave. That Chen Letian is a cultivator, so it's too difficult to follow him. ”
Shopkeeper Shen pondered for a long time and said: "That's it, don't get too close to him, he has a lot of eyes staring at him everywhere he goes, and we ordinary people also want to get close to him, you send more ordinary people to understand him, do you understand what I mean?"
Yan Xiaoshan thought about it, and finally nodded and agreed: "But I have to say it in advance, I can only try my best, I can't guarantee the truth of the news, Chen Letian is so powerful, there must be a lot of means." I have to get you information as much as possible without being discovered, do you think it's okay?"
"Okay, okay. Shopkeeper Shen hurriedly nodded: "Thank you so much, I'm relieved to have your words." Alas, you don't know how worried I was when I received this task yesterday, I'm afraid that if you don't agree, if you don't agree, I guess I'll have to go on my own, and I've never done this kind of thing, and I don't know anyone else, so I can only wait for my superiors to remove me. ”
On the day after drinking with the shopkeeper Shen, Yan Xiaoshan came to tell his wife and Feng Shan about the situation.
He confessed everything the silver gambling house shopkeeper said to him.
"Madam, the county must have gone to him yesterday to stabilize people's hearts. The only thing the county order can do at present is to mobilize all the network resources that can be mobilized, otherwise the shopkeeper Shen would not have rushed to the doctor to come to me. Yan Xiaoshan said.
Li Xuan'er was thoughtful.
Feng Shan said: "You are right to promise, and since you have agreed, you have to pass on the news to them every day, otherwise you will be a gang." ”
Yan Xiaoshan said: "Rest assured, Leader Feng, goofs will never be used, the Cao Gang has been playing many identities for so many years, and has never been a goof." But it's up to you to decide what information to give them. I'll give you whatever you tell me to give. ”
Li Xuan'er said: "He is in Chengdu, and the people of Chengdu will let the county order them know what they know, and as for me, you can also tell the truth." Li Xuan'er's idea is that it is also a good way to deliver news to the county. I have to let the county lord know that Brother Lotte's current situation in Chengdu is okay, and put pressure on the county honor, maybe the county will surrender in fear.
Yan Xiaoshan said yes.
Before leaving, Feng Shan told Yan Xiaoshan to be true when he gave the news, not to be too obvious, and the indifferent itinerary of Mrs. going out and coming back normally could also be reported to them.
Yan Xiaoshan said he understood.
So the next day, Lord Xianzun received a message sent by Shopkeeper Shen.
The news shows that Chen Letian's complaint in Chengdu has begun, which has caused a lot of uproar in Chengdu. The people of Chengdu have one more thing to talk about after dinner.
The prefectural lord looked at the situation on the information and saw that the thing that he was most worried about had finally happened.
However, I have already figured it out and can accept it no matter what the situation is.
Having enjoyed the benefits of so many years of power-money transactions, don't hold grudges in the face of the dangers that come with it.
Find Zhao Biao, the dog-legged man, and ask Zhao Biao how the situation is on his side?
Zhao Biao took out all the relationships that could be used in the entire Shu land in the past few days and gave them to the county lord.
