"I can't afford it!"

Lu Qi said directly: "However, if you can't afford it, you have to give it." ”

The master was happy, "I can't afford it, how can I give it?" ”

Lu Qi pondered for a moment and said: "My maid Li Mu'er has a personal dowry, worth more than 20 taels of silver, which has been sold recently, and bought meat and vegetables for me to work, and there are still some left, plus my salary, it should be enough." ”

"If it's not enough, I'll give it." Huang Zhutou said immediately.

Lu Qi was very grateful.

Actually, he is fully capable of giving, but it must be said that it is difficult.

Otherwise, it is impossible to explain where the money comes from.

As for Li Muer's personal dowry, no one will doubt it, because he used to be the son of the Lu family, and his father almost became the Lu family's family.

A maidservant who cooks medicine for his father, if he doesn't have some money, he really can't say anything.

As the saying goes, rotten ships also have three catties of nails, and that's no more.

What's more, in the early years, Lu Qi's predecessor was a bad gambler, and Li Muer also used the money to pay off the debt, but he didn't give it later, and he owed debts one after another.

No one thinks that Li Mu'er has no money, it is likely that he hid it for the last turnover.

The master actually knew Lu Qi's identity, and Huang Zhutou had investigated it, so when he heard him say this, he didn't think there was a problem.

In fact, this reason has also been thought about by Lu Qi for a long time.

In order to avoid exposure, he also deliberately pinched a bracelet with silver and gave it to Li Mu'er, so that she could find a pawnshop some time ago, and there were bills and physical goods.

Absolutely.

The master said: "Since you can afford it, and he is a master, then you can live." ”

Shenlong Street is not something that can be lived in if you have money, you must pay taxes to the county government to a certain extent, or people with a certain social status.

Lu Qi is a master master, and he has also disclosed the strength of the Skin Refining Realm through Li Mu'er, he is a martial artist, and he is qualified to live in it.

However, you all have to go through the house.

Now, with the head of the household, he is completely fine.

Lu Qi thanked him: "Thank you, Master, thank you, Master Zhang, thank you Huang Zhutou." ”

After this matter was settled, Huang Zhutou did not plan to leave, but said with a smile: "Master, Master Lu and the Lu family have a little conflict, can you ......?"

"Can't!"

The master refused directly, then picked up the paperwork without raising his head, and said, "Their grievances have nothing to do with the county government." ”

Huang Zhutou wanted to say more, but the knife and pen officer Zhang Qian got up and pushed them out.

Zhang Qiandao: "Huang Zhutou, this is not a dispute between rich households, but a family dispute, if this matter is involved in my county government, Chiba County will be in chaos." ”

Then he glanced at Lu Qi and said, "Master Lu, what the county government can do is to give you a foothold on Shenlong Street, and look at your own creation." ”

Lu Qi hugged his fists and thanked him.

He came here to find a house, and he didn't expect the county government to suppress the Lu family for him.

Who is he, how could he possibly let the county government do things like this!

It is better to rely on others than on yourself.

He wants to have a stable place to settle down, and then cultivate well, develop secretly, and finally crush the Lu family with unparalleled strength, wouldn't it be happy?!

Seeing that Huang Li still wanted to argue, he grabbed him.

After thanking Zhang Qian, he went out with Huang Li.

"Brother Lu, what are you pulling me to do, this is the best opportunity, if you miss it, it will be gone." Huang Li said indignantly.

Lu Qi said gratefully: "Brother Huang, thank you, but you can't do it, so you don't have to." ”

It was the first time he called Huang Li as Brother Huang, which was a recognition of him.

Huang Li could also feel it, but he felt more guilty, his throat was dry, and he couldn't speak.

I can only sigh.

"Being able to stay on Shenlong Street, the Lu family probably doesn't dare to mess around, at least on the bright side." Lu Qi in turn appeased Huang Li.

Huang Lidao: "I knew that I couldn't do it, so I asked him to double your salary, what years have it been, and I will pay back fifteen yuan!" ”

Lu Qi said with a smile: "Brother Huang has good intentions, if I don't talk about this salary, maybe the master may not let me live in Shenlong Street." ”

"Although I can move in if I have identity and money, my situation is special, and my master is willing to give me a chance, which is already good."

Huang Li was helpless, but he also understood that what Lu Qi said made sense.

It's just that when he saw Lu Qi's smile, he was even more uncomfortable, and he didn't help, so he said, "Let's go, go to my house to drink, it's my turn to invite you this time." ”

Lu Qi said: "Okay, then bother." ”

Huang Li said: "Where is it, let's go, I ate your big meal last time, and I want to invite you back this time." ”

The two immediately left the palace.

Soon, I came to a not bustling area of Shenlong Street, although it is not prosperous, but it is secluded and very suitable for living.

No. 76 is relatively prosperous, but they are all rich families and social people with status, and they are mixed, plus people and businessmen are mixed, it is relatively noisy, and it is uncomfortable to live.

The two returned to their residence with a pot of roasted knives, a sauced duck and two pig's trotters, a bag of peanuts, and three catties of salt-baked eggs.

When I entered the door, I didn't see any fireworks.

Lu Qi was surprised: "Brother Huang, are your family members out?" ”

Huang Zhutou said with a smile: "Where is there any family, a lonely family, seven or eight years ago, Yun You came here, the road saw the injustice and pulled out a knife to help, killed a group of strongmen, was favored by Lord Xianzun, recruited as a headhunter, this is the settlement of the home." But I'm used to being single, and I haven't looked for it. ”

Lu Qi said: "Brother Huang doesn't plan to look for it?" ”

Huang Zhutou smiled: "People like us, lonely people are the safest." ”

Lu Qi was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay, drink, drink." ”

Huang Zhutou lifted out a table and took out two more stools, one clean for Lu Qi and the other dusty, he wiped it himself and sat down.

The wine and meat were put on the table, and the side dishes were also placed on the table.

It's not winter at this time, but the liquor is not heated and can't taste it.

Huang Zhutou brought a small stove and burned the burning knife.

I was still afraid that the fire was slow, so I raised my hand and pressed it on the stove, and a stream of hot air poured into the stove from the palm of my hand, and suddenly the flame increased, and the wine came out of the heat.

Lu Qi was taken aback and complimented: "Brother Huang, you have good skills, I'm afraid you have already reached the point of transformation." ”

Huang Zhutou said: "Where is the matter, it's just the five-fold dark energy, and I know a martial art of the Fire Palm, so I just need it." ”

Then I didn't want to say more, so I began to persuade alcohol.

Lu Qi didn't want to ask more, so as not to expose himself.

After touching three glasses, the two began to eat meat, gulping meat and drinking, and in less than half an hour, the two of them were already red-faced and red-eared, and they were drunk.

Huang Zhutou said: "Brother Lu, you can't be too rigid, the iron material given to you by the county government is actually a lot, you are a little finer, just give the county government a qualification, be careful, you can still make a low-grade knife for yourself." ”

"If you can make a deal, sell it to me when the time comes, and it will be worth a few months' wages."

"This is a good opportunity, in a few days, the Lu family will sell a large number of swords, and the price will come down, and if you sell it again, there will be no good price."

This is to persuade Lu Qi to build a private soldier to make a move.

Lu Qi hurriedly said: "Brother Huang said that he was laughing, how could I do those things that violated my conscience?" ”

Huang Zhutou sighed and said: "Brother, you are too upright, alas, if I persuade you again, I will not be a human being, just that." ”

Next, I talked about some government affairs, as well as mine matters.

About an hour later, Huang Zhutou was already seven points drunk, and sent Lu Qi out of the door in a daze.

"Brother Lu, don't drink, you have to go back, don't be unable to find your home, I'll send you ......"

"Farewell, Brother Huang, you can't stand still, go back and have a good rest."

"Alas, on weekdays, my brother and I don't get drunk with a thousand cups, but today I fell in love with you, drank a few more cups, offered ugliness, sacrificed ugliness......"

Huang Zhutou went back with a stagger, Lu Qi closed the door, looked at the time, and walked back, estimating that he would be able to return before dinner.

This time I went back and walked for half an hour.

Finally, before dark, I returned to Ping'an Street.

Lu Qi was worried about whether Uncle Shi and the others would come back, so he took a detour to their house.

When he came to the door of Uncle Shi's house, Lu Qi was stunned.

In the front yard, Uncle Shi's family was crying and crying, but Uncle Shi was nowhere to be seen.

He suddenly sobered up.

Dispelling the drunkenness, he stepped forward and said, "Aunt Shi, where is my uncle?" ”

Aunt Shi, several children, and in-laws all cried when they heard this.

After a long time, Aunt Shi said, "Xiao Luzi, it's okay, go back, have you drunk?" Go home and get a good night's sleep......"

Lu Qi looked at Xiao Shi and said, "Xiao Shi, what are you doing?" Don't lie to me! ”

Xiao Shi cried: "Jia Sanye slapped my father twice, and he hasn't woken up yet." ”

After speaking, he cried loudly, and his family members were also crying sadly.

Lu Qi was furious, suppressed his anger, and went into the house to check, Uncle Shi really hadn't woken up yet, but fortunately, he was just beaten and concussed, and it would be good to rest for a few days.

He massaged Uncle Shi's temples, and the gentle internal qi entered his body, and suddenly Uncle Shi's breath smoothed out, and his eyelids moved.

Soon woke up and shouted hungry.

The family was overjoyed.

Lu Qi got up and took out a few money from his arms, stuffed it into Aunt Shi, and then turned his head and said, "Little Shi, take care of you Laozi, I'm sleepy, go back to sleep." ”

Little Stone nodded repeatedly.

Aunt Shi's family was very grateful to Lu Qi.

Watch him go back.

Home.

Li Mu'er had already made dinner, and when she saw Lu Qi coming back, she said happily: "Lu Lang, you are back, I heard that you are fine, so I prepared a big meal and waited for you." ”

Lu Qi's face was a little heavy, and he said, "Mu'er, they were blackmailed and bullied by Jia San, do you know?" ”

Li Mu'er sighed: "I know, he also came to our house to collect three dollars from me, and then told me that 'you are fine', our poor family is miserable." ”

Lu Qi said: "I came back after eating, you divide the finished meat into five portions and send it to their families, and in addition, each family will give five more money." ”

Li Mu'er wanted to speak and stopped, but he also knew that Lu Qi was kind-hearted, and he couldn't see his neighbors suffering, so he did it.

When Li Mu'er came back after delivering his things, Lu Qi had already changed into a night suit, was sorting out the dogleg knife, and hung up the naan of the flying knife.

Li Mu'er exclaimed: "Lu Lang, where are you going this time?" ”

Lu Qi said: "Kill Jia San." ”

Li Mu'er was silent for a moment and said, "Lu Lang, be careful, I will hide in the neighbor's house and not cause trouble for you." ”

Lu Qi nodded and said, "You know ventriloquism, you and I use bird calls as the number, not me, don't open the door." ”

Li Mu'er should go down.

Lu Qi put on the mask and went out.

This knife man is very suitable.

Anyway, everyone knows that he drank freely with Huang Zhutou, walked unsteadily, and slept when he went home, who would have thought that he would return to Shenlong Street to kill people?!
