Chapter 543: Acting

"Butler, my son-in-law wants to buy this manor, what do you think is the right price?" Meng Xiaoshuang said, the old housekeeper Wang who guarded the manor burst into tears of excitement, and the sky was pitiful, and he could finally leave this place.

Meng Xiaoshuang didn't understand why the gray-headed old housekeeper Wang burst into tears when he heard that someone was going to buy this manor, but he still asked politely again: "Butler, how much is this manor?"

"Fifty thousand gold leaves, as long as the son is willing to pay fifty thousand gold leaves, this manor is the childe's. Butler Wang excitedly stretched out five fingers.

50,000 gold leaves, but Ye Yu is worth a fraction of the price, this manor has more than 30 acres, this has to be left in the city, and 500,000 gold leaves may not be able to take the ground.

"Fifty thousand, just fifty thousand, we will hand over the contract documents now?" Meng Xiaoshuang saw Ye Yu nodding and said.

"This son, miss, this manor belongs to Viscount Zheng Shengli of Xuanrui City, and the contract documents are all from Viscount Zheng, so to deliver the contract documents, you must go to Xuanrui City. Steward Wang carefully hid his excitement and said.

"You want to go to Xuanrui City?" Ye Yu frowned, the town was more than a hundred miles away from Xuanrui City, and it would take at least a day to go back and forth, and more importantly, he didn't want to waste time.

"That's it, Steward Wang, we really want to buy this manor, but we still have important matters, we can't delay here, I think there is a demon communication equipment in this town that can be connected with Xuanrui City, you give Viscount Zheng a communication, let him send someone to come over with the contract documents, let's pay the money with one hand and hand over the manor with the other, so that at least half of the time will be saved, and you don't have to travel around tired, right?" Ye Yu suggested.

"This demonic communication equipment is there, but in the hands of the town guard, if it is not an urgent matter, I am afraid it will ......" The old Wang butler was embarrassed.

"If it's because of the money, I'll pay for it. "This place is inside the Qinglong Xiuzhen Kingdom, there has been no war for a long time, and it is estimated that the demon communication has long been diverted to other uses, but the military communication is naturally very expensive, not something that ordinary people can use, and Ye Yu has long understood this.

"That's okay, just do what Childe said, but I don't know if it can be done, this communication needs to be ......" Steward Wang stretched out five fingers very embarrassed.

"Five hundred gold leaves, right?" Meng Xiaoshuang took out five hundred gold leaves and said to the old Wang steward, "Here you go!"

"Miss Xie, I'll do it for you!" Steward Wang took the gold leaf excitedly, and the old arms and legs disappeared in front of the two of them.

In less than half an hour, the old Wang housekeeper returned to the manor with a red face, panting, and found Ye Yu and the others who were watching everywhere in the manor.

"Childe, Miss, the Viscount has agreed, and someone will be sent to deliver the contract at noon. ”

"Steward Wang, have you told Viscount Zheng the price of this manor?" Ye Yu asked with a smile.

"When the Viscount heard this, he was very pleased, and praised me. Butler Wang said with an excited old face.

"Butler Wang isn't talking about 50,000 gold leaves, right?" Ye Yu smiled at him and said meaningfully.

"Childe, don't scare the little old man, I don't dare to deceive the viscount!" said the old Wang butler with a dodging look.

"You have already earned us four hundred gold leaves before, and now you have said ten thousand gold leaves less to your master, compared to this ten thousand gold leaves, you plan to join forces with the person who came to deliver the contract documents to swallow it privately, right?" Ye Yu's spiritual sense had never left the old Wang housekeeper, and he knew everything he said to Viscount Zheng.

can quietly embezzle such a large sum of money, this old Wang steward is not an ordinary person, no wonder this Viscount Zheng will assign him here to guard the manor.

"Childe, Miss, don't you ......" Butler Wang knelt down in front of the two of them, begging them not to tell the truth.

"Steward Wang, we won't tell you, and a mere 10,000 gold leaves is nothing, but all buildings like manors will have architectural drawings, and my son-in-law wants to rebuild this manor, it would be better if he could find the drawings for building this manor." Meng Xiaoshuang and Ye Yu already had a clear heart, smiled knowingly, and stepped forward to say to the old Wang housekeeper.

"Architectural drawings, architectural drawings, yes, there are ......" Butler Wang muttered a few times in his mouth, and looked up in surprise, as if he remembered something, and said loudly.

"Where is it?" Ye Yu and Meng Xiaoshuang glanced at each other when they heard this, and both of them showed a hint of a smile.

"In Xiao Lao'er's home, a few days ago, a little Lao'er broke a leather robe, and remembered that there was a demon skin in the house, so he sewed it on the leather robe, and the pattern on it seemed to be this manor......"

"Take us to fetch it!" Ye Yu said hurriedly.

"Come with me!" The old Wang butler straightened up, and led the two of them through the manor, and after a while, he came to a corner of the manor, where several rooms were built, which were originally the firewood houses in the manor, and after the old Wang housekeeper was assigned here, it became his residence, and he lived for thirty years.

As soon as he returned home, the old housekeeper rummaged through the cabinets and searched everywhere, even the bottom of the pot, under the bed, and even the bricks in the wall cracks were knocked one by one, and nothing appeared, and the leather robe sewn with the manor architectural drawings was gone!

Lao Wang's housekeeper was anxious, which was related to his life, "What's the matter, when I got up in the morning, I still saw it, and it hung at the head of the bed, why did it disappear in the blink of an eye?"

Ye Yu looked at Meng Xiaoshuang, and now there were three words written in the eyes of both of them, "Something is wrong!"

Since the other party can think of the leather robe of the old Wang butler, the person sent by Viscount Zheng to deliver the contract documents with him?

"Steward Wang, which way will Viscount Zheng's people come?" Ye Yu asked calmly.

"I don't know, there are three days to get out of Xuanrui City to reach the official road that converges through the town, which one will go, I don't know the little old man. ”

"And what's the closest?"

"Out of the town to the east, the one on the left is the closest. Steward Wang hesitated for a moment, but still said it.

"Steward Wang, if you don't mind, come with us first!" Ye Yu gave Meng Xiaoshuang a look, and the two immediately pulled Steward Wang out of the manor, and after quickly leaving the town, they summoned the mounts of the two out of the cave.

Ye Yu rode with Steward Wang, and galloped out of the town with Meng Xiaoshuang, heading east.

After less than five minutes of galloping, there were three days of road in front of them, and the three days of the road were all leading to Xuanrui City, according to the instructions of the old Wang steward, they turned onto a road on the left, and galloped away!

There are still a lot of pedestrians and business travelers on this road, and the two flying horses that are galloping from a distance take the initiative to avoid, provoking the pedestrians to look sideways for a while, and the flying dust makes many people scold angrily.

"Master, look, there's a group of people in front!"

"See!" Ye Yu had a very ominous premonition in his heart.

The gathered crowd almost blocked the entire official road, and Ye Yu and Meng Xiaoshuang had no choice but to dismount and lead the horses over.

"Brother, what happened?"

"Dead man, his throat was cut, he bled a lot, and he died without ...... eyes"

"It's cruel......" Another brother shook his head and walked away.

"Master, let's take a look?" Meng Xiaoshuang asked in a low voice.

"Childe, it's from our Viscount's Mansion, I know ...... clothes" Ye Yu didn't speak yet, but the old Wang housekeeper beside him pointed to the trouser legs of the deceased in the gap in the crowd, and said with trembling hands in his eyes.

When the people who watched the excitement heard this, they all fell silent all of a sudden, and everyone automatically got out of the way, and then their eyes were focused on the three of them.

Butler Wang saw clearly the face of the man lying in a pool of blood, and suddenly stumbled under his feet, ran forward, and exclaimed: "Son, why are you ......?"

The person who came was actually the son of Lao Wangjiao, which seemed a bit unexpected, this Lao Wang housekeeper didn't want outsiders to share the 10,000 gold leaves with him, so he called his son over, he didn't expect that there would be such a big disaster on the road, but it turned out to kill his own flesh and blood!

This is the price to be paid for greed!

"Master, what a fast sword!" Meng Xiaoshuang stepped forward to take a closer look, returned to Ye Yu's side, and lowered her body with her ears.

"The sword of the murderer has touched the rules, the son of the old Wang steward is not powerless, but he let people wipe his neck with a sword, indicating that he is defenseless at all, and the demon horse, whose limbs have been cut off, can still run more than ten meters away, what does this mean, this demon horse has been flying and running, and a person is riding in the demon horse, in the process of running, is he holding his chest high, or leaning forward slightly, and his waist is arched?" Although Ye Yu did not look at the sword wounds and death of the deceased as carefully as Meng Xiaoshuang, he had basically judged that the deceased died under a top-level killer, who could first swing his sword to cut off the limbs of the demon horse, and then cut the throat of the rider with a sword, not many people could do it, and even fewer could put down his body and assassinate such a small person!

Ye Yu can also do it, but if he can do it cleanly like this, I'm afraid he can't!

What kind of person could it be? Ye Yu frowned, since he met Luo Nannan, he seemed to be led by the nose, every time he was a step late, if he didn't bring the old Wang housekeeper with him, this old Wang housekeeper would probably be killed!

"Childe, Miss, please, little Lao'er doesn't want those 10,000 gold leaves, you will avenge my son, okay?" Old Wang's housekeeper hugged his son's body and cried, begging Ye Yu and Meng Xiaoshuang.

"Old Steward Wang, let's see what's missing from your son first?" Ye Yu asked.

Steward Wang fumbled with his son, and replied after a while: "Isn't there anything missing?"

"I mean, are the deeds and paperwork of Viscount Zheng's manor still on your son?"

The old Wang housekeeper touched the clothes on his son's chest, looked up in horror and said, "Son, the deeds and documents of the manor are gone." ”

"Sure enough!" Ye Yu secretly screamed, the maker of this conspiracy simply counted everything, and the clues were cut off.

"Steward Wang, there is some money here, you can use it to bury your son, don't go back to that town. Ye Yu took out a bag of gold leaves, there were about five hundred gold leaves in it, his son's death was because of his greed, but it was not his son who came today, it would be someone else, and he couldn't get rid of it, no matter who died, he couldn't get out of it.

"Meng Xiaoshuang, let's go!" This is the official road, and it is not far from Xuanrui City, and he has no way to do anything about the old Wang housekeeper, after all, they have no relatives and no reason, and the murderer is not him, so it is already benevolent and righteous to do so.

"Master, I think that old Wang butler is very pitiful!" Meng Xiaoshuang whispered.

Ye Yu turned his head, glanced at Meng Xiaoshuang, and sighed: "The poor man must have something to hate, his greed buried his son's life!"

"Master, where are we going?" Meng Xiaoshuang asked.

"Go back to the manor!" Ye Yu's cold voice came, what secrets are hidden in this manor, it is worth these people to take such a lot of trouble to separate themselves from Meng Xiaoshuang, and also killed the son of the old Wang housekeeper who came to deliver the contract documents, and took all the contracts and documents!

There are certainly no secrets in the deeds and papers, and the point is that these people don't want the manor to fall into their own hands.

Without deeds and documents, he could not justifiably obtain the manor, nor could he search for it on a large scale.

Returning to the manor again, as Ye Yu expected, the manor had changed owners.

"Two, this manor has been bought by the contemptible master a month ago, if the two of you want to rest, just find an inn in the town, and the cost will be borne by the contemptible master!" A middle-aged man who looked like a housekeeper bowed his head and greeted Ye Yu and the others who came off the horse.

"We have only been leaving for a short time, and this manor has changed owners, it's really fast!" Ye Yu sneered.

"The contemptible master actually bought this manor a long time ago, but he has always had time to take a look, and today happened to be the young lady's trip, so he stopped by. The butler still said with a smile on his face.

"That's the case, don't bother your master, let's go!" Ye Yu beckoned Meng Xiaoshuang to get on the horse.

"Master, let's leave like this?" Meng Xiaoshuang said a little unwillingly.

"If you don't leave, what else can we do, can we still forcibly snatch back the garden that people bought back legally with proper procedures?" Ye Yu said.

"But ......"

"It's nothing, everyone thinks of us going ahead, and the rest depends on how we deal with it, this opponent is amazing, no one knows who it is, so they put the master in the basket!" Ye Yu felt a little shuddered when he thought about it, this was an organized, premeditated, and conspiracy against him!

"Master, the pair of housekeepers father and son?" Meng Xiaoshuang sat on the back of the horse and frowned deeply for a long time, and suddenly exclaimed.

"You can finally see that the old Wang butler is too similar, no matter the tone and demeanor, there is not the slightest flaw. Ye Yu said.

"What about the dead man?" Meng Xiaoshuang thought about it, but her guess was a little unreasonable.
