"Hmm."

just answered softly, Zhang Mazi, who was originally afraid in his heart, looked at Feng Ping and was not so scared.

Not only that, but the sharp claws, the green hair, and the hideous expression looked so kind!

"Master Niu, you're finally back!"

As early as a week ago, Zhang Mazi realized the identity of Niu Dali, or Feng Ping.

Originally, he was just doing his own thing with peace of mind, and he didn't deliberately inquire about a lot of news.

But the horrible scene of that day!

The two monks who died that day!

and the magic weapons and books handed over by Feng Ping, which made it difficult for him to contain the curiosity in his heart!

After some simple inquiry, Zhang Mazi got a truth that made him frightened!

The entire Shuntian Mansion was sealed and flattened, and Feng Ye played alone!

The person they want to kill is Feng Ping, and the person they want to protect is also Feng Ping!

In the eyes of Shuntian Mansion and Dengxian Pavilion, Niu Dali is the bait, and Feng Ping is the big fish, but only he knows that the real big fish is the monks in the Shuntian Mansion!

"Well, get me a roast chicken and elbow first, and then say you want to eat it." Feng Ping closed the door casually and walked into the bedroom where Zhang Mazi lived.

"Master Niu, wait a minute!"

Zhang Mazi didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, so he hurriedly went out and trotted all the way to tell the kitchen to prepare meals.

During this time, he didn't go anywhere, just waited on the sidelines, and when the meal was ready, he ran back to his house with the food box.

Now Feng Ping's appearance must not be seen by others, so there are some things that can only be done by him!

Since learning Feng Ping's secret, Zhang Mazi's first reaction was excitement!

That's right, he's unusually excited!

It's just that there is a little bit of worry in the excitement.

Now, the shopkeeper is back, and Zhang Mazi's hanging heart has finally been put down.

He knows very well that following Feng Ping can do great things!

Half an hour later, Zhang Mazi returned to his house, he looked around cautiously, and after confirming that no one was there, he pushed open the door and walked in.

"Master Niu, I've kept you waiting."

"It's fine."

Feng Ping sat at the square table, and his thoughts drifted back with the other party's entry.

Zhang Mazi opened the food box, served the hot roast chicken and elbows to the table, and then handed the chopsticks to the other party's hands.

"You go out first, and then come in when I believe it."

"Yes!"

Zhang Mazi didn't ask why, and walked out of the house very cleanly.

After the other party left, Feng Ping didn't use chopsticks, his claws pierced directly into the roast chicken, and he took it in his hand and gnawed it.

As soon as the fragrant chicken was in his stomach, his sea of qi turned upside down.

Host danger detected. 】

【Simulation Stop...】

[Self-test start...]

[Self-test completed.] 】

Negative effects have been exempted.] 】

After his body regained his composure, Feng Ping shouted at the door: "Come in!" ”

Zhang Mazi walked in lightly, with a strange expression on his face.

The smile was mixed with uneasiness.

"Master Niu."

Feng Ping took a bite of the roast chicken, swallowed it, and said, "You know everything?" ”

Zhang Mazi was in a very nervous mood at the moment, he knew that if the next words were not right, he was afraid that he would die directly!

However, he firmly believes that as long as he is loyal to Feng Ye, then the other party will definitely not embarrass him!

"Master Niu, if you have any means to use it on me, as long as I dare to say more, let me die immediately!"

Hearing this, Feng Ping put down the roast chicken in his hand and looked at each other with a smile, "We have known each other a long time ago, right?" ”

"Your hours...... On the second day of the first lunar month, small dog eyes, small dog eyes! ”

"Alright, don't talk nonsense. Since I dare to let you around, I just like your cleverness, otherwise I would have killed you a long time ago, and it would be your turn to be the big housekeeper? ”

Thump!

Zhang Mazi knelt directly on the ground, kowtowing and repeating: "Xie Niu Ye, Xie Niu Ye!" ”

"Get up."

"Yes!"

"I'm still the same sentence, follow me, whether it's silver, tobacco, or women, you can have as much as you want!"

"Thank you, Master Niu!"

"You've got to get things done, though!"

Hearing this, Zhang Mazi raised his head to look at Feng Ping's terrifying face, and said without the slightest evasion: "Master Niu, there is indeed a problem with the Zhao family's account!" They have at least ...... in their possession every month."

"A thousand taels of silver?"

Feng Ping smiled slightly, tore a chicken leg and threw it into his mouth.

"You... Did you know? ”

Zhang Mazi was shocked!

No wonder! No wonder the shopkeeper let himself check the accounts, it seems that he already knew!

"The matter of silver is put aside, it is a small matter." Feng Ping put down the roast chicken in his hand, picked up the elbow on the side again, and continued, "From today on, I will send someone to bring me food every day, and I can only send some melons, fruits and vegetables, and don't have any cooked food." ”

"Huh?" Zhang Mazi was shocked, what is this called?

"Do you understand?" The seal was displeased, and a terrifying voice sounded!

"I understand, I understand!"

"Every two days, you bring me cooked food alone! No one but you will know about this, not even the monks of Mingle Palace! Feng Ping looked at the other party with a serious expression and asked, "Can it be done?" ”

"Master Niu, don't worry! Nothing can go wrong! ”

"That's good."

Feng Ping quietly ate a few bites of his elbow and stopped asking.

Zhang Mazi stood quietly aside, and he didn't dare to make any moves, and the shopkeeper didn't ask, and he didn't know what to say.

Quack, quack!

After eating a roast chicken and an elbow on the table, Feng Ping threw the bone directly into his mouth and chewed it.

Not to mention, after turning into a walking corpse, his teeth and bite force are much stronger.

It's just that the sound of chewing bones makes Zhang Mazi's scalp tingle.

After the last bite of the bone went down, Feng Ping sat on the round stool and continued very casually: "Tell me about the situation of the firm in the past few days." ”

"Yes!"

"Seven days ago, the warden of the military room came and took away 10,000 taels of silver, saying that it was your ......."

"That's right, the way I look now is the one I got in exchange for the 10,000 taels of silver."

Feng Ping laughed at himself and cracked.

Zhang Mazi didn't know how to answer.

Do you mean it? Or is it bad?

Helpless, he could only smile, and then said: "A monk came the day before yesterday and told me that next month's income does not need to be handed over to Mingle Palace, which will be used to make up for the shortfall of 10,000 taels and the renovation of Niu's Commercial Bank." ”

"Tut, Governor Zhang still has some ability, ten thousand taels of silver said let Mingle Palace come out, let Mingle Palace come out."

Feng Ping was very satisfied with the result.

In this way, the ten thousand taels of silver were given to him for nothing!

"Where is the monk of Mingle Palace now?"

"Master Niu, let's go."

"Gone? Didn't stay here? ”

Feng Ping was a little surprised, it stands to reason that he had to send a monk from the Crystal Realm to suppress the formation?

How?

That's it?

"Yes, let's go. The monk said that next month, when the business was on track, he would come back. ”

"Come back next month?"

Feng Ping felt that this reason was very reasonable, but he felt a little untenable.

However, since there is no monk of Mingle Palace, it will only be better for him, at least until the foundation is completed, there will be no other moths.

"Is there anyone over there in the middle hall now?"

"People go to work during the day and go home at night to rest." Zhang Mazi replied cautiously.

"Let's go! Come with me. ”

Feng Ping got up and walked towards the door.

The butler of the Niufu followed him step by step, both apprehensive and confused.

What are you going to do in the middle hall now?

A shelf has just been erected there, and it is difficult to see it for more than a month.

The two walked all the way through the front courtyard and the rain-sheltered promenade to the stone pond courtyard full of mud and gravel and sawdust paint red.

Feng Ping went straight to the room where he was staying.

At this time, the beams have been re-erected, and the bluestone slabs in the house have been lifted.

"See if there's anyone around?"

Zhang Mazi followed his words, went to Fushoutang, and walked around the courtyard twice, and after making sure that there was no one, he returned to Feng Ping's side.

"Master Niu, no one."

"Has anyone been here to search?"

Seven days ago, Feng Ping planned to hide the stolen goods from touching the corpse in the underground secret room, but bumped into Zhang Mazi who came alone on the way, so he temporarily decided to hide the magic weapon and handed it over to the other party along with other books, money bags and the like.

At the time, I was worried that this secret room would be discovered, but now it seems that it is well hidden.

"No, no. When the construction started here, I sent my cousin to supervise the whole process, and I was afraid that those subordinates did not understand the rules. ”

"Yes, it's quite thoughtful."

Feng Ping praised it, then bypassed the mud all over the ground and found the location where the vase was originally placed.

Naturally, the vase had long since been shattered, and the wooden frame had been removed, but that particular brick was still there.

This is also the result of Feng Ping's deliberate avoidance during the battle that day, after all, there are gold, silver and jewelry underneath, if he really let others find it, then he must not regret his death?

Knocking on that particular brick, there was a muffled sound.

Zhang Mazi stood behind the shopkeeper, and his eyes suddenly lit up!

His mind was already active, and he quickly thought of the possibilities!

"Where Zhao Laosan hides things!"

The secret passage appeared, Feng Ping greeted Zhang Mazi, and walked down with his front and back feet.

The secret room is not big, but the six night pearls illuminate the inside of the room.

Feng Ping, who is incarnated as a walking corpse and covered in green hair, looks even more weird against the backdrop of the night pearl!

However, Zhang Mazi's attention was not on him at all!

His eyes were instantly attracted by the two big boxes, and he stared straight at them for a long time, speechless!

"It's... This! ”

"Pathetic, isn't it? People die, and the money is not spent. ”

Feng Ping smiled, walked slowly to the box, picked up a gold ingot at random, and threw it to Zhang Mazi on the side.

Zhang Mazi, who was still in surprise and had not yet recovered, saw something thrown over, and hurriedly caught it.

"Cow... Master Niu! ”

"After these things are processed, why do you have to have more than 100,000 silver taels, right?" Feng Ping turned around and asked.

Zhang Mazi scratched his head and muttered with a smile on his face: "Master Niu, I haven't seen so much money, how can I estimate ......?"

"However, this silver will allow you to sleep all the girls of the 'Spring on the Branches'."

The corners of Feng Ping's mouth raised slightly, and he quipped.

"Master Niu! What are you talking about, our current identity, and we still need silver to sleep with those girls? Zhang Mazi laughed.

He is now the big shopkeeper of the Niufu, and everyone who said that he was close to the vegetable market was lined up!

"I warn you, it's okay to sleep, but it's not allowed! Give the silver, give the silver! ”

Feng Ping suddenly became serious, which made Zhang Mazi a little overwhelmed.

"Yes, yes, don't worry, Master Niu, you won't!"

"I've managed to deal with these things for me, and they've all been exchanged for silver tickets." Feng Ping patted the two large boxes, and then said, "Don't be too anxious, after all, you have to deal with it privately, and it can be solved within half a year." ”

"Understood! Don't worry, Master Niu, this matter will definitely be done for you. ”

In fact, Zhang Mazi has no bottom in his heart.

With so much fine, soft, gold and silver, it is easy to attract attention if you really let it be handled, and it is definitely not easy to deal with it in private.

But since Niu Ye asked for it, then he had to find a way! Niu Ye asked him to do things, not to listen to him make it difficult!

No matter how difficult it is, you should think of it yourself!

"What do you know about the business of Niu's firm?" Feng Ping slowly walked to the chair and sat down.

"The business is still those businesses, and the people are those people, but they have changed their shopkeepers, and there is no big problem."

"That's good, I don't know how Zhao Laosan's accounts are done, and how much silver goes into his own pocket every month. But I'll give you three months to add three points to me on the premise that the income of Mingle Palace remains the same! ”

"Cow..."

Zhang Mazi subconsciously wanted to speak, but swallowed it back.

"Isn't tobacco addictive? I don't think the boss of "Izumi Edami" smokes either! Feng Ping knocked on the table and nodded.

"Master Niu, what do you mean?"

"You can ask me privately, and all the merchants and merchants who have monks behind them will find a way for them to smoke this thing! Aren't you good at that? Isn't that right?! ”

When Zhang Mazi heard this, he took a cold breath.

He had a premonition again, this Feng Ye was afraid that he was going to do something big again!

"Will it? Do you know how? Do you want me to teach you? Feng Ping asked three questions in a row.

Zhang Mazi wanted to come down strongly.

But this matter is different from dealing with money, and after a moment of entanglement, he still said: "Master Niu taught me." ”

"Your identity as the chief butler is here, isn't it easy to make friends with those businessmen? It's okay to give them some to smoke, and then hold a party every once in a while, and so on, making tobacco smoking a product of high society, and making them think about the Fa and squeeze their heads to drill into it......"

Feng Ping briefly said his thoughts.

"Master Niu, but in this case, wouldn't the other businessmen ......?"

"What are you afraid of! The monks behind those people, no matter how powerful they are, they are bigger than Mingle Palace? Let's help Mingle Palace earn more silver, and they won't support us? ”

"Didn't you just say that the ...... they were given the same thing"

"Do you understand how to draw a flatbread? Deal with the affairs of Mingle Palace, you don't care! I'll do it myself! Some are tricks to play with them! ”

Feng Ping waved his hand disappreciably, the silver was in his hands, and he still wanted to give it to Mingle Palace?

Dream on!

"What about ordinary people?"

"If they can sell less, how much can they pay? But it all has to be gradual. ”

"I know, I know."

Zhang Mazi feels that tonight has gained a lot!

Feng Ping can play with the entire Shuntian Mansion, and this method is really endless, which opens his eyes!

"By the way, what did you talk to your cousin about? Does anyone know I'm not dead? ”
