Chapter 70: Hole Cards
"If you go back to the guest officer, the kid's name is Li Shen, do you have any other instructions?" Pei Qianchuan tried his best to make himself look natural, his expression was a little puzzled, but the smile on his face remained unchanged, it was natural and official.
Pei Qianchuan lied and said it confidently, he was not afraid that Ji Dang would ask, because in the past two years in Liangzhou City, he had used the name Li Shen.
"Oh, it's okay, you can go. Ji Dang waved his hand and replied
It seems that he, the guest, is just curious and asks casually.
Pei Qianchuan, whose expressions and movements were very natural, nodded to Ji Dang again, and then put the white towel in his hand on his shoulder and walked away with the tray, without stopping and going directly to serve other guests.
Ji Dang turned around and ate the noodles on the table: "Expressions and movements are normal, but you shouldn't pause so slightly before replying." ”
It's not that he doesn't have a deep city, otherwise he wouldn't have answered as usual. It seems that this young man has a secret, and the secret is not small! It should be a matter of life and death, otherwise he would not be so suspicious. ”
"Li Shen, hehe......"
Ji Dang lowered his head and ate noodles, and at the same time he was planning in his heart, this kind of thing is not common, how can it be done if he doesn't grasp it well.
But just when Ji Dang hadn't finished eating the noodles, something happened to the noodle restaurant where he was.
A man dressed in silk with a horse-faced face and four ruffian-like men entered the noodle shop.
It was the shopkeeper of the noodle restaurant who looked up first and saw it, and then the shopkeeper hurriedly glanced at Pei Qianchuan to ask him to avoid it, but by the time Pei Qianchuan followed the shopkeeper's gesture to look, it was already too late.
Pei Qianchuan turned around and wanted to leave, but suddenly felt a thick arm pull his back collar.
At the same time, a slightly sharp voice sounded: "Li Shen, where do you want to go?"
Pei Qianchuan saw that he couldn't avoid it, so he turned around with a smile on his face, and at the same time tried to quietly pull away the arm that was holding his back collar, but he didn't move.
Seeing this, the horse-faced man motioned for the man to let go of his hand, and at the same time, he continued to say in a loud and sharp joke: "What if I let you go, run, I still want to run! Li Shen, I see where you can run today!"
Hearing this, Pei Qianchuan's face smiled even more: "Yo, Second Master Zhao, what do you think you are talking about? I didn't see you coming, I want to go to the back kitchen and tell the cook to cook a few more good dishes, I'm just afraid that the noodle restaurant will snub you." You see this is a misunderstanding, isn't it?"
At this time, everyone in the noodle restaurant also saw this scene and discussed it one after another.
"Second Master Zhao, isn't this lord from Chengnan to release money? Why is he here?" "Ang, he is Second Master Zhao." ”
"Hey, why are you here again, it's not like Second Master Zhao has come here once or twice. ”
"I heard that this little second is Second Master Zhao's old patron. "This little second looks very good-looking, why don't you learn well." ”
"You don't know this, this little two didn't borrow money to gamble and prostitute or anything, he borrowed money to buy medicine. ”
"Buy medicine, someone in his family is sick?"
"No, it's himself, don't look at him now. Just two years ago, when he first arrived at this noodle restaurant, he couldn't stand it with two or three bowls of noodles on a tray.
"The little face is as white as plain paper, that is, the shopkeeper of the noodle shop is kind to him and takes pity on him, so he left him. A customer of a noodle restaurant said.
"Yes, yes, it's only in the past two years that he borrowed money to buy medicine and slowly adjusted his body, so his complexion has improved. ”
....................................
Zhao Er looked at Pei Qianchuan, who was greeting him with a smile in front of him, but he didn't eat him: "Hmph, Li Shen, don't fight with me." The purpose of my visit today is clear to you, needless to say. ”
Pei Qianchuan still had that smiling face: "I know, I know." However, Second Master Zhao, you see that nine taels of silver is not a small amount, and I finally saved five taels of silver, all of which are here. ”
Pei Qianchuan took out a few grains of broken silver from his arms and slowly placed them on the table, his posture was sufficient.
"As for the rest, please ask Second Master Zhao to give two more days. ”
Zhao Erleng glanced at the silver on the table, and said in a vicious voice: "A few days of grace, I will give you grace who will give me grace." ”
Seeing that he couldn't get Qian again, Zhao Er immediately turned his face, his expression was as if he had changed someone, very hideous.
"Hmm. Zhao Er motioned to the splash skin beside him, and the splash skin immediately understood.
Several pairs of big hands immediately grabbed Pei Qianchuan's thin body, and dragged him to the side of the table with all his might, and one of them grabbed Pei Qianchuan's right hand and pressed it to the table.
Pei Qianchuan still didn't understand what Zhao Er meant, he clenched his fists tightly, and kept saying good things on his lips, wanting Zhao Er to be lenient for two more days.
"Damn, Zhao Er has already come to ask for the third time, and if he doesn't give it to him this time, he may really have to do it. ”
"Silver, damn silver! Where would I have bothered about this thing before! If it hadn't been for .......
"Even if the guest just gave me that bounty. What should I do?" Pei Qianchuan thought quickly in his mind about the solution.
At this time, the guest he was thinking about in his heart, that is, Ji Dang, was sitting on the edge of the table at this time, eating noodles and looking at this side, with a full posture of watching the excitement.
Zhao Er had already taken out the dagger, and it seemed that he was going to move it seriously.
Ji Dang stood up, and he walked towards Pei Qianchuan... Let's go... Then walked over.
After walking past Pei Qianchuan and a few people, Ji Dang stepped forward and grabbed the hand of the noodle shop shopkeeper holding the silver and pulled him back.
Where is the shopkeeper's opponent Ji Dang, he was carried back by Ji Dang like a chicken.
The shopkeeper of the noodle restaurant just wanted to speak out, but was locked by Ji Dang's murderous intent.
Like the gaze of a hungry tiger, it seems like it is nothing more than a prey that dies and then breathes.
The shopkeeper of the noodle restaurant, who had never seen blood, could stand it, and was directly stunned, and then just wanted to shout out in horror.
Taking advantage of this time, Ji Dang directly knocked him unconscious with a knife, and then put him on a wooden chair behind the counter.
Everyone in the noodle restaurant looked at Pei Qianchuan and a few of them, naturally no one paid attention to this.
Ji Dang stepped aside after doing everything and watched the development of the situation on the field with cold eyes.
Without the help of the shopkeeper of the noodle restaurant to solve the problem, Ji Dang wanted to see what this "Li Shen" was going to do.
After a short contact with Pei Qianchuan and watching his behavior, Ji Dang was sure that this kid was not a stupid person, and the city government was not insignificant.
Daring to deal with a dangerous and fierce person like Zhao Er, Ji Dang didn't believe that Pei Qianchuan had no hole cards to protect himself.
However, Pei Qianchuan usually doesn't take out this kind of hole card, so it should naturally have an ingredient that can't see the light, and it may have something to do with the secret he tries his best to hide.
Ji Dang just wanted to force Pei Qianchuan to show his hole cards, and he wanted to get a glimpse of it......
