Chapter 8 Buying News
In fact, Chu Tianshu didn't trust these scholars.
He could only say that he was skeptical of what they said.
- One possibility is that these people are working together to cheat him out of money.
However, the money on Chu Tianshu's body was only rewarded by Qi Zhongliu this morning.
These scholars don't know how much money he has.
Therefore, if these people want to use fake news to intimidate Chu Tianshu and cheat money, then using a huge amount of money like a dollar and more money than a dollar as a bait to tempt, these people will inevitably show their flaws.
But there is another possibility.
That is, the news that these people are talking about is true.
The sixth lady of Chen Wangfu, the girl that Chu Tianshu had met twice, was really a master who killed people without blinking.
If that's the case, a dollar, or a few dollars, can buy news that has a positive meaning for your own life, and it is also a big profit.
When Chu Tianshu threw out this piece of silver, the eyes of all the scholars present couldn't help but look at that dollar.
Judging from the price level that Chu Tianshu learned this morning, the purchasing power of this dollar should be between 3,000 yuan and 5,000 yuan.
Of course, if you take into account that the location of the bazaar he visited this morning is Tianjing, the capital of the Great Cloud Dynasty, then this yuan is about close to the purchasing power of six thousand yuan.
This is an outrageous thing.
But at the moment, it's not the first thing he has to think about.
Chu Tianshu's top priority was his own life.
None of the scholars fixed their eyes on Chu Tianshu's jingling pockets containing more silver coins.
Their greed is limited to the silver coin that is thrown out.
In other words, they didn't plan in advance to use fake news to intimidate and deceive Chu Tianshu.
What they said in their mouths that Miss Six had killed six seventeen young master's scholars in two years was true!
"Whoever is the first to say what I want to know, this dollar will belong to whoever it is!" Chu Tianshu looked around.
"Half a year ago, Miss Six killed the seventeenth young master's scholar because he took the seventeenth young master to skip class."
"Nineteen days ago, the sixth miss killed him because the seventeenth young master's scholar took him to the Qinglou."
"I know these two." The scholar looked at Chu Tianshu with burning eyes: "I don't ask for one dollar, but you have to give me four cents!" ”
"There are six people in total, and you said the cause of death of two people, and it costs four cents?" Chu Tianshu raised his eyebrows: "You are a little greedy." ”
"Sanmao can also be."
"No, I'll give you four cents." Chu Tianshu took out a handful of silver coins from his pocket, lowered his head and began to count the money.
Out of the corner of his eye, he always looked at the two scholars in front of him.
They didn't have any communication, and they were all shocked by the huge amount of money that Chu Tianshu was carrying.
More than twenty pieces!
Chu Tianshu took out the silver triangle left over from the morning's meal from a pile of silver coins.
He picked out four silver triangles and threw them at the scholar who had given him the news.
The scholar was busy catching the four cents.
"Thank you." The scholar put the four cents in his pocket and said with a smile: "I wish Brother Fu can live from Miss Six." ”
"Lend you good words." Chu Tianshu looked around at everyone: "Does anyone else know anything else?" ”
No one spoke.
The relationship between these scholars is not very good, and these people are not familiar with the scholars who have been in front of Qi Zhongliu for a long time.
Therefore, most of them may know about the death of the other party.
But if you still have to remember it for more than half a year, or even more than a year, it will be more unreliable.
Chu Tianshu lay on his side on the bunk, looking at everyone with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
These people don't even have the mind to make up nonsense to deceive themselves, and it should be said that their personalities are relatively honest - it is no wonder that when they choose scholars, they will not choose those who are too heavy and play with their masters.
It's normal to find an honest one.
"Looks like no one remembers." Chu Tianshu smiled: "Then I will take back this money." ”
He said, measuring the expressions on the faces of the scholars.
I didn't see that obvious expression of wanting to say something.
It seems that there really isn't much more news available.
Chu Tianshu sighed.
Then he began to analyze his current situation based on what he knew.
- To be alive is definitely your own goal.
And the person who is known to affect his goal in the short term is the sixth lady.
Miss Sixth is the sister of the seventeenth young master's father and mother, and the relationship is somewhat different from the other brothers and sisters in the mansion who have different fathers and mothers.
Judging from the thinking of ordinary people, one is because he took the young master to skip class, and the other is because he took the young master to the Qinglou.
Ignore for the time being that Miss Six is a pervert, that is, if she likes to kill some people, that is, because these two scholars and the seventeenth young master did not study well, and Miss Six killed them?
A silver coin was thrown up and down in Chu Tianshu's hand, which was eye-catching.
Chu Tian suddenly asked, "The sixth lady of King Chen's mansion, what is her usual reputation?" ”
Shen Siyuan was slightly stunned: "Why are you asking this?" ”
"Just ask." Chu Tianshu replied.
"Miss Six usually has a good reputation, is kind and charitable, kind-hearted, very business-like, and very capable of managing the family business." Shen Siyuan replied: "Several sons of our family admire Miss Six very much. ”
Chu Tianshu nodded: "Sounds good." ”
However, when a young man admires a girl, the most important factor should be the other party's appearance and figure, right?
Thinking about it like this, the other party's appearance and figure are enough to be admired.
Born in a royal mansion, his status is noble; It seems that he also opened a factory and can make his own money; She looks beautiful and seems to have a good figure.
It's normal to be admired.
But he is kind-hearted and generous......
To be honest, Chu Tianshu couldn't imagine it.
"In this case, Miss Six is not going to kill innocent people indiscriminately." Chu Tianshu sighed intentionally or unintentionally.
"Surely not." Shen Siyuan said: "Anyway, I haven't heard of Miss Six killing anyone indiscriminately. ”
Chu Tianshu looked at others.
Everyone's expressions were similar to Shen Siyuan's.
For the dangerous Sixth Lady who had already killed six scholars, these scholars did not feel the slightest fear or disgust.
Justified casual killing...... Isn't it killing people?
The feudal society is really more cruel than I imagined.
Chu Tianshu thought and threw a dollar into Shen Siyuan's arms.
Shen Siyuan didn't react for a while, and asked, "What are you doing here?" ”
"For you." Chu Tianshu smiled: "I just arrived, you brought me to the lounge, and gave me such important news, it can be seen that you are willing to treat me as a friend." ”
"This dollar should be regarded as something I invited you to eat."
"Of course, if you feel that this dollar insults your personality, you can pay it back to me."
Shen Siyuan's lips moved, and he immediately put the money into his arms and covered it tightly: "I don't think so." ”
Chu Tianshu nodded: "Then we will be friends in the future." ”
