Chapter IX: Security
"I wanted to keep this shop, in case my wife and daughters came back one day.
I don't keep watch, in case they come back and don't find me.
But I kept it for two months, I really couldn't keep it, in this shop, I couldn't eat during the day, I couldn't close my eyes at night, I ......
If it were just me, I would stay up and wait for them, and one day I wouldn't be able to stay up...... But I also have a son, who is only three years old this year.
I can't let him be without his mother, his sister, and his father.
The family's house has been sold, and I am just waiting to transfer this shop out, and I will take him back to my hometown.
I don't want much money, if you want to take over this shop, just give me five hundred taels. ”
Five hundred taels is indeed not much.
With this location and this size, any store has to start at 3,000 taels.
This man asked for this price, not really for a selling price, he just wanted a price to free himself from the shackles.
Once the shop is sold, people can leave, and there is no reason to stay anymore.
Lu Jia couldn't understand this very well.
"Okay, five hundred taels is a big bargain, I wish the boss a smooth future, I didn't bring any silver when I went out today, let's see you directly at the government tomorrow."
You bring the deed, I bring the silver ticket, and our government will transfer the house face to face.
How's it going to be at the end of Tatsuki? ”
Lu Jia was so neat and simple, which made the man's heart uneasy, "My shop...... You don't think about it anymore? ”
Lu Jia waved his hand, "Life and death are fate, wealth is in the sky, I don't care about this, see you tomorrow." ”
Coming out of this teahouse, Chun Bao came to Lu Jia and whispered in a suppressed voice: "Miss, don't you think this thing that the owner said is very familiar." ”
Lu Jia looked at Chunbao.
Chun Bao took a bite of the pepper chicken, and said while eating: "It's exactly the same as the thing on the ship, there are also old monks on the boat, those two masters and servants, the secret room is missing, and we can't find anyone standing outside the door."
It was such a big ship, and the people of the Jingwei camp went up to search the bottom and found nothing. ”
It's the same, indeed.
Whether it is the process of the case or the form of the case, it is almost the same.
Lu Jia thought of it when the man said it, but she didn't know where the old monk was now, and it was useless to ask more about the man, just to let him remember it again.
"Five hundred taels, where are you going?" Lu Jia didn't answer Chunbao's words, and Chunbao didn't wait for her to answer, chewed two mouthfuls of pepper chicken and changed the new question,
Lu Jia smiled: "Have you ever heard of a saying that thieves are difficult to prevent?" ”
Chunbao's round eyes immediately widened, with excitement in his eyes, "Let's go rob the Rong'an Hou Mansion?" Rob whom? ”
"Whoever has the money to rob whom."
With Chunbao's hand, Lu Jia tore a piece of chicken skin from her pepper chicken and threw it in her mouth, only to chew two bites, and before she could swallow her stomach, an acquaintance appeared in front of her.
Xiao Yan.
was wearing an old-fashioned dark robe, followed by two people wearing official robes and seven or eight people wearing the Xuantie clothes of the Beijing Guard Camp, coming out of the shop opposite the shocking spring tea.
Caught off guard, it was difficult to even pretend not to see.
Xiao Yan's brows, which were already frowning, suddenly wrinkled even deeper when he saw Lu Jia.
He turned his head and said something to the dog officer next to him, and the two dog officers took the people from the Jingwei camp to the shop next door, and Xiao Yan walked towards Lu Jia.
"Don't stay in the house, run out and wander around!" If you open your mouth, you won't be able to speak well.
Lu Jia rolled his eyes, "Lord Xiao, what about people, the reason why they have long legs is for the freedom to walk." ”
Xiao Yan lowered her eyes and looked at her, and there was no love in her slightly peach blossom eyes, only cold.
"Don't even want your life for freedom? If you want to find a decent way to die, how good it is to swallow gold and commit suicide, you can still leave a real thing in your belly, and you may be reincarnated in the future It may be a golden spoon. ”
The mouth is really poisonous.
Lu Jia glared at him, "It's your business." ”
Xiao Yan probably saw Lu Jiasa's beating posture today, so he didn't feel disobedient to this sentence, but just sneered, "If you die in another realm, it's none of my business, but dying here will increase my caseload out of thin air."
It's not to scare you, just this shocking spring tea behind you, there was a murder in a closed room two months ago, the three victims are not alive or dead, and the murderer is still being searched.
If you don't want to die, you don't even have a corpse, so don't run around. ”
Lu Jia looked at Xiao Yan, suddenly raised his eyebrows, and laughed, "That's unfortunate, I just negotiated the price with the owner of Jingchun Tea, and I'm going to take this store down tomorrow." ”
She smiled uninhibitedly and perversely.
Xiao Yan originally planned to come over and scold Lu Jia to hurry back to the house, don't hang around outside and make any trouble.
I never expected to hear such a sentence.
The effect of these words is equivalent to Lu Jia'er beating up the nurse when he enters the door today.
Xiao Xiao was young, and the corners of his eyes twitched in shock, "Coiled down?" What to do with the coil? ”
Lu Jia's eyes were disgusted, "What about the book of the Criminal Department, look at how well you asked this question, what are you doing here?" Of course, it's a tavern, but I'm not going to talk about it at the dock today. ”
Xiao Yan: ......
"Are you really going to open a tavern?"
"Can that be fake?" Lu Jia shrugged, "Okay, I won't tell you, don't delay our young talent Master Shangshu of the Criminal Department to handle the case, I'll go." ”
After speaking, Lu Jia waved his sleeves and left with Chunbao.
It's just that he only took two steps, and suddenly paused, looked back at Xiao Yan and smiled, "Lord Shangshu, the mansion may have to hold a banquet for me tonight, let's go back together?" It's probably going to be dinner soon. ”
Xiao Yanli ignored Lu Jia, turned his head and walked in the direction of the Jingwei camp.
Lu Jia shrugged and turned to leave.
"Miss, what kind of bullshit banquet are you really going to?" Taking two steps, Chun Bao asked Lu Jia, "Those bunch of women, looking at them is enough of a headache." ”
Lu Jia said with a smile: "Xiao Yan seems to be unable to go back for a while today, at the evening dust washing banquet, let's go and see what good things are in Mrs. Rong'anhou's house." ”
"Why can't Xiao Yan go back, we can do it?" Chun Bao was puzzled.
"Because Xiao Yan doesn't go back, his guards, both overtly and secretly, will follow him outside, so it will be easy for us to set fire to his courtyard."
Chun Bao was even more puzzled, "Why did we go to his yard and set fire?" ”
"Because there is a fire in his courtyard, when Mrs. Rong Anhou shouts that she has lost something, Xiao Yan will not believe her, but will doubt her, have you heard an idiom?"
"The wicked sue first!" Chun Bao's eyes immediately widened and he rushed to answer.
"That's smart!" Lu Jia smiled and pinched her face, "As long as Xiao Yan and Mrs. Rong Anhou face each other, we will be safe." ”
