Chapter 162: Prices are skyrocketing, and morality is decaying
Participating in the temple fair is just an excuse for her, and Wang's mother's real purpose is ...... Find the killer.
Since Qingxian County was swept away by the big shots of the spy bureau last year, Qingxian County is now quite peaceful, and there are many fewer people who steal chickens and dogs, let alone dare to kill people and set fires.
And there is another important reason for the peace of Qingxian County, now Song Beibei's fifth brother is already a famous big man in the rivers and lakes, almost everyone in Qingxian County knows Song Beibei, even if there is a killer, and then think of the relationship between Song Beibei and Song Nanfeng, they don't dare to take this job.
So she wanted to find the killer, and she had to find it in Linxian. The killer in Linxian County didn't know Song Beibei, so naturally he wouldn't worry a lot.
When Mama Wang used to work in the Lin family, she did this murderous thing for the old lady, and she was very familiar with the whole process.
After arriving in Linxian, she first spent some silver to buy the news of the killer from the beggar in Linxian, and then asked him to an inn through the beggar.
The killer was a tall man in the prime of life, he walked into the room, saw a figure behind the screen, and asked, "You are looking for me to do things?" ”
A voice came from behind the screen: "Yes, I need you to help me kill an eleven-year-old little girl, you have a portrait of this little girl in front of you, and where she usually passes, where it is convenient to do it, I have prepared it for you." ”
The killer picked up the paper on the table and looked at it, then quickly put it down again.
The killer asked, "Things are easy to do, the key is how much do you give?" ”
"I asked you about the rules, generally a life is one thousand taels, I will give you an extra hundred taels, you can handle things safely for me."
The killer laughed meaninglessly: "One thousand taels of silver is the price of ordinary people, this person can't have relatives in the Tao, relatives in officialdom, and relatives with extremely wealthy families." ”
These...... There are both Song and North North.
Wang Ma couldn't help but scold in her heart, why is the killer like this now, the price is so expensive, even if the price is so expensive, the matter has not been done yet, and there are a lot of rules.
She was looking for a killer for the old lady in the mansion back then, and went to kill a concubine of the Lin family, but the killer only collected a hundred taels of silver, didn't ask anything, and solved the matter in a very cool day, and there were no problems in the following years.
Nowadays, the world is really declining, and prices are skyrocketing.
Seeing that she hadn't spoken, the killer asked again: "What is the identity of this person you asked me to kill?" ”
Wang Ma came back to her senses and asked instead of answering: "No one told me that your rule is not to accept high-ranking officials and dignitaries, but only ordinary people." You're not going to do this business? ”
The killer said: "I didn't say that I wouldn't accept dignitaries, but I had to add money." ”
"How much?"
"It depends on who it is, if there are relatives on the road, the nameless small faction, add 1,000, the big faction, add 10,000, the top one, add 100,000......"
Mother Wang didn't wait for him to finish, then interrupted him and asked, "What level is the funeral family?" ”
The killer said: "If you came to ask me two years ago, it would be regarded as a nameless faction, and if you ask me today, it will naturally be the top of the top, and you have to add 100,000." ”
Wang Ma: "......"
One Song Nanfeng will add 100,000, if she says the names of Song, Qing, Song Yuan, Song Dongfeng, and Song Xifeng, wouldn't she have to add millions? She brought so much money!
She didn't ask any more questions, and directly deceived the killer and said, "The little girl I asked you to kill is an ordinary peasant daughter, who has no power and no power." ”
"Really?" The killer was wary.
"Of course it's true." Wang Ma snorted and said, "I'm at this age, I've spent my whole life in the courtyard of a deep house, and I'm a short family all day long, is it possible that I still have the opportunity to provoke people on the road and people in the officialdom?" ”
The killer asked again: "Who is the child's name, how many people are in the family, how many acres of land, and can there be old and young women and children in the family?" ”
Wang Ma: "......"
You are a killer, why are you here to check your household registration?
Wang Ma's patience has been completely exhausted, and she said angrily: "If you don't take this job, forget it, I'll find another killer!" ”
The killer stopped asking questions and said, "Okay, I'll take it." You pay a deposit of two hundred taels first, and when I finish the matter, you will give me the rest of the money. ”
Wang Ma took a deep breath and swallowed her anger.
She also had no choice, listening to the beggar say that due to the increasing influence of the Killing Horse Mountain Burial Love family, many people who had fallen into the grass in the past have now defected to Killing Horse Mountain.
Who doesn't want to find a proper livelihood when they have the opportunity, and who wants to be bloodthirsty on the tip of the knife every day.
This killer is relatively safe and reasonable for those beggars to be contacted. It's more expensive, and Wang Ma really can't afford it.
She said, "The silver is under the pillow, you can take it." ”
The killer went over and rummaged through it, and sure enough, he saw a bag of silver, took it out and counted it, it was exactly two hundred taels.
Wang Ma listened to the movement outside behind the screen, and soon, the room fell silent.
She poked her head out and looked out to see if the killer was gone.
As a result, the killer happened to be looking at her!
The killer had a stubble on his face and a terrible look.
Wang Ma was startled, subconsciously stepped back, and hurriedly covered her face, and said hurriedly: "Why don't you leave!" ”
"Let's go, I'll go."
The killer took the silver, took a deep look at Wang Ma, and turned to leave.
It's not easy to do any line of work now, and they are even more in this business, if they are a little careless, they kill a big man behind them, and their lives are gone, where can they spend so much money.
Therefore, for this kind of gold lord who does not clearly explain the information of the person to be killed, he has to take a look at what the gold lord looks like, and when he turns around, he can also pull a cushion when he is found to be implicated.
……
Two days later, it was Qingming, and Qingbei Academy allowed students to go back to worship their ancestors, and in order to take care of the students who were far away, they did not attend classes for ten days.
Song Beibei went to incense the ancestors with his father and mother in the morning, so he was idle again, and now he went out to walk with Jiale and Release.
After shopping for a while, I saw a notice posted at the door of the teahouse that Shen Zhao used to go to, saying that there was a new Qingtuan tea cake that could only be eaten in the season, so Song Beibei immediately went in with the two of them to eat and drink tea and chat.
Not far from her table, the killer held a teacup, sipped tea, and secretly watched Song Beibei.
According to the clues provided by Wang's mother, he had his eyes on Song Beibei early, and he had already followed Song Beibei for a long time.
But he could see that the man beside Song Beibei was a master, so he didn't act rashly and waited quietly for the opportunity.
As soon as Song Beibei was single, he would do it immediately.
Suddenly, Song Beibei stood up holding his stomach and said to Jiale He: "I drank too much tea, go to the thatched house." ”
Golden opportunity! The killer immediately tightened the knife in his arms.
