The business house was crowded with people, and there was a commotion for a while, Liu Qingxue couldn't help frowning, but fortunately, Hou Yanchun kept leading Liu Qingxue to the end of the hall, pushed open a door, and after walking in, Hou Yanchun closed the door, as if separated from the outside world, and suddenly quieted down.

"Is this ......" Liu Qingxue looked around and asked suspiciously. The décor here is completely different from the outside, and the décor outside the door is very luxurious, but here it is very rustic. The room is very spacious, but there are few people, there is a pair of tables and chairs in the middle, it looks like the workmanship is very fine, only one person sits quietly behind the table, and when he saw Hou Yanchun and Liu Qingxue entering the door, he stood up and nodded, as if he knew in advance that someone would come.

Hou Yanchun smiled a little proudly: "This is a new business that I have opened up since I took office! After all, Lizhou is remote, and it is inevitable that there will be some inconvenience in the exchange of information with the east, so I specially arranged the 'Fuhao Station' to deliver letters for people, and there are also people to help polish or ghostwrite, family letters, invitations, and even love letters!"

Liu Qingxue looked at the person behind the table, but he looked like a literati. She sat down on a stool and said indifferently: "That's a business with the official post station, Fuhao Commercial Bank is really rich." ”

Hou Yanchun grinned and said, "Hey, now that the emperor has been reduced to a prisoner, what's so strange about us robbing him of a few orders." Liu Qingxue picked up the pen on the table straightforwardly and said, "I don't need to polish, and I don't need ghostwriting." You tell him to go out, I'll write it myself. ”

Hou Yanchun nodded and said, "It's all up to the girl." He glanced at the man, and he got up and walked out.

Liu Qingxue grinded the ink, her heart moved, and she asked casually, "How long have you been in Shajiang City?"

"It's been more than half a month. Hou Yanchun replied honestly.

"In recent days, there have been ...... in the city of Shajiang What's different from usual?" Liu Qingxue stared at Hou Yanchun's expression, not letting go of any details of his expression.

Unexpectedly, Hou Yanchun nodded seriously: "It's really a little strange." ”

Liu Qingxue was a little surprised, she just wanted to test Hou Yanchun's tone, but he directly took Liu Qingxue's words. I only heard him say in a matter-of-fact manner: "A few days ago, I went to the restaurant to drink, and when I came back, it was already midnight, and I was walking on the street, but I saw someone walking through the streets and alleys, walking fast. I was curious, so I leaned in to take a look. But these people seemed to be very alert, and I did not dare to get too close, except that some of them walked at night still dressed in white, as if looking for something, but they only went to remote places where there were few people, mostly deserted workshops and storehouses. ”

Liu Qingxue thought silently. It is true that the people in Hou Yanchun's words should be the people of Yunzhou, but since they have formed an alliance with Shajiang City, why do they need to secretly search for anything? Could it be that the alliance between them is also a ghost in their hearts?

She asked, "Where did you meet them that day?"

"In the north of the city, I followed all the way to the northwest suburbs and came back. ”

"Do they go every day?"

Hou Yanchun shrugged and said, "Then Hou doesn't know, I've only met him for one day." Why did the girl ask about this?"

Liu Qingxue hurriedly said: "I just heard people chatting on the street, but someone has had the same experience as you, so I'm a little curious." Saying that, she was afraid that Hou Yanchun would ask questions again, so she handed the written letter to Hou Yanchun and said, "This letter will be sent to Cloud City for me." ”

Hou Yanchun glanced at the letter, took it and picked it up, and asked with a smile: "What is the relationship between the girl and the Liu family?"

Liu Qingxue suddenly became alert, her hand holding the sword was ready to move, and she asked in a cold voice, "What do you want to say?"

Hou Yanchun was unconscious, and said with a smile: "The letter was sent to Benhai City before, and now after the fall of Benhai City, it is sent to Yunzhong City, where King Chengji is located, and now the Liu family and Benhai City are married, not to mention that the girl is surnamed Liu, no one is a fool, right? ”

"What do you want?"

"Hehe, Hou is just curious, so it's too talkative. But don't worry, Hou's mouth is very tight, and he will never confide out, but the cost is ......," he said, gesturing to count the money in his hand, and smiled at Liu Qingxue.

Liu Qingxue frowned slightly, took out some silver from her arms, and said, "That's all I have on me." ”

"That girl, this sword ......" Hou Yanchun only glanced at those silver two, but his gaze swept to the snow shadow in Liu Qingxue's hand. Liu Qingxue suddenly realized, worthy of being a businessman, went around such a big circle, from Pingzhou to Shajiang City, still for a few jade on the scabbard.

She said coldly, "Since you see the sword in my hand, you should know that I can cut off your head before you can say anything." ”

Hou Yanchun didn't panic at all, and still smiled: "The girl doesn't dare." Even if the girl can kill me, there are so many people outside the door, and the girl can't leave. ”

Liu Qingxue was awe-inspiring in her heart, it turned out that Hou Yanchun had this intention when she brought herself to the deepest part of this firm. But she didn't want to show weakness, and sneered: "I don't care if I kill a few more people to accompany the funeral." ”

"The girl doesn't care, I don't know if Xiao Gongzi cares?"

Liu Qingxue gritted her teeth and glared angrily. Hou Yanchun continued: "I'm sure that Xiao Gongzi must have also come to Shajiang City. With the skills of Fuhao Commercial Bank, it is not difficult to find out Xiao Gongzi, but if the girl dies here, Xiao Gongzi has no way of knowing the details, it is like a target, and he must have to wait for the death period. ”

Liu Qingxue was at a loss for a while. With Mu Changsheng here, she was not worried that Fuhao Commercial Bank would hurt the three of them, but if Gu Wanyi's identity was discovered, then Xiao Qi's enemy would not only be Fuhao Commercial Bank. She was already ashamed of leaving Xiao Qi and the others, and if she had affected Xiao Qi and Gu Wanyi, she would be even more unhappy in her heart.

A hint of hesitation flashed in her resolute eyes. Hou Yanchun was clear in his heart, grinning, and did not urge.

Liu Qingxue reached out and gently stroked a few jade stones on the scabbard. This was originally a relic of her mother, she didn't want to give it to people, she had been away from home for so long, she looked at the jade on the scabbard, as if her mother's voice was still there. But she knew that in a foreign land, the situation was really dangerous. The other party is strong, if he can save a few lives, a few lives are better than a few cold jades worth guarding.

She hesitated for a long time, and finally gritted her teeth and said: "I think that the most important thing for businessmen is the word Xinyi. ”

"That's natural, girl, don't worry, collect money, Hou should do what he shouldn't do, he knows very well!" Hou Yanchun said with a smile.

"How about just giving you one?"

Liu Qingxue thought that Hou Yanchun would bargain, but he readily agreed, nodded and smiled: "Okay, just one." With that, he led Liu Qingxue to remove the jade from the scabbard.

Liu Qingxue was secretly surprised in her heart, and she was silent on the surface. It seemed that the value of this jade was far more valuable than she expected. However, she also relaxed a little, since Hou Yanchun was seeking wealth, she was holding these jades, and she was not afraid that Hou Yanchun would rashly betray herself.

Just watching the jade stone being taken down, she thought of her deceased mother again, her heart ached, and her eyes couldn't help but moisten.

Mother, don't blame me. Thinking so in her heart, she left Fuhao Trading House without looking back.

A guy in the trading house respectfully handed the jade he had taken down to Hou Yanchun, and said with a smile: "My lord, look ...... you?"

Hou Yanchun waved his hand, didn't look at the jade, and ordered: "You go find a box and put it in the warehouse, but don't lose it." ”

He looked out the door and muttered, "It seems that the kid surnamed Xiao has a lot of weight in her heart." ”
