Volume 1: The Rise of the Western Regions Chapter 6 Seeking Wealth and Danger

Jin Sanliang's words are indeed clever.

His sentence "seeking wealth and danger in danger" refers to this hidden underground arrow-making factory, and also implies that if Zhao Rang takes over this job, the benefits will definitely not be less.

Although the three-day period was very short, in addition to Zhao Rang's ruthlessness, the most important point was the lack of money.

A ruthless person can cut off all ties with the knife in his hand in order to achieve his goal. Such a person is not very troublesome, and he is not afraid of things, and he is exactly the best person needed for this kind of brainless work.

Listening to the tapping sound in his ears, Zhao Rang temporarily emptied his head for a moment.

Jin Sanliang thought he was hesitating, and then said while the iron was hot:

"That's the number!"

Zhao Rang saw the fingers stretched out from his right hand and asked rhetorically:

"A thousand taels?"

Jin Sanliang shook his head:

"Ten thousand taels!"

Zhao Rang did not show shock at this number.

Murder and arson.

Every arrow assembled here may take a human life in the future, so the amount of 10,000 taels is only a drop in the bucket for this kind of business done by the Admiralty Dart Bureau.

"Tell me what it is."

Seeing that Zhao Rang was still so calm in the face of such a generous remuneration, Jin Sanliang couldn't help but get upright.

The Jianghu guests he saw in the past, when he heard so much money, he should have gone crazy with red eyes, even if he asked him to cut his wife, maybe he wouldn't have a second word.

"It's not hard for you, help me kill someone."

Jin Sanliang paused after speaking, and added:

"It's not difficult for you."

Zhao Rang hooked the corners of his mouth and said:

"Does that mean if I don't have the skills to do that, I'm going to die?"

Jin Sanliang is very casual to spread his hands, which is exactly what he meant.

A penny is a penny, and the extra money of 10,000 taels of silver is certainly not so easy to earn.

"Whose life is so valuable?"

Although Zhao Rang has not yet decided whether to take on this job or not, this incident has indeed aroused his curiosity.

Jin Sanliang narrowed his eyes and said:

"So, you agreed?"

Zhao Rang replied:

"I need to know if you're telling the truth."

A hint of displeasure appeared on Jin Sanliang's face.

The secret environment of the two of them deep in the underground arrow factory represents a kind of trust. If you want to deceive, then you can finish it in the above two sentences before, why bother to show Zhao Rang to see it is believing?

The more one person knows about such a thing, the more risk it has, and the gold and silver are also gambling.

He bet that Zhao Rang would definitely agree.

"I at least have to know that this person I want to kill, with my skills, is it really not difficult!"

That makes sense.

After all, the money earned must be spent by life.

If you go to die in vain, even if the reward is increased tenfold, it is estimated that no one will take it.

"An officer from the Investigation Division."

Zhao Rang chuckled in his heart after hearing this.

After trying his best to calm his mind, he pretended to be indifferent and said;

"I can't do it."

Jin Sanliang didn't expect Zhao Rang to refuse so simply, and after a while, he reached out and patted him on the shoulder and said:

"Then let's get together and disperse! But you can stay here for a few days, and you're not familiar with the business alliance anyway. ”

Zhao Rang thanked him and turned around and walked to the stairs.

After staying underground for a long time, I felt very dazzling when I saw the sun at first glance, even though it was now close to dusk.

As soon as he stood still, he saw a man come out of nowhere, and said:

"This way, please!"

Zhao Rang followed the man from a small path on the side to the west of the courtyard.

The courtyard is extremely quiet, and it seems that it has not been inhabited for a long time.

After the leader pushed open the door, he turned sideways and asked Zhao Rang to enter the house, and then said:

"If you need anything, just ask, there are people on duty here day and night."

Zhao Rang couldn't help sneering in his heart, this was clearly to put him under house arrest...... I think that if I don't agree to that job, I guess I won't be able to get out of here alive.

But this person's next words completely subverted Zhao Rang's thoughts.

"If you feel stuffy in the house, you can go out of the yard and go across the street. At night, it's the liveliest place to be. ”

Zhao Rang nodded, indicating that he knew.

The basin in the house was already filled with a basin of clean water, apparently prepared in advance.

On the Gobi Desert, water is very valuable.

After washing his face, Zhao Rang sat idle in the room. But the thought of how many pairs of eyes were staring at him outside the house made him feel uncomfortable, and he couldn't stay for a moment.

Outside the window, the sky is full of red clouds.

Zhao Rang simply pushed the door out, and came to the opposite street with a smoke, wanting to see what the "most lively" places the man said.

Sure enough, the lively places everywhere are almost the same, nothing more than two kinds - wine and women.

There were many shops on the street, and the smell of wine mixed with fat powder drilled straight into Zhao Rang's nasal cavity, and he was a little out of breath.

But it's still early, and these shops are full of people.

Zhao Rang walked half the street, but he couldn't find a happy family, so he simply stood in the middle of the road, with his arms folded around his chest, watching the sunset on the horizon.

With his arm raised, he touched the tin box that was placed in the placket of his shirt.

Zhao Rang always felt that the reward of three hundred taels of silver should be two hundred taels because of this iron box. It's just that in front of Ye Sanniang, he didn't poke it.

After all, it is not a good thing to be too smart in front of your employer, but it will make people feel uneasy about yourself.

Zhao Rang took out the iron box and put it in the palm of his hand to look at it.

Under the setting sun, the tin box was covered with a layer of dark red.

With its delicate appearance, it is quite elegant!

When he was about to put it away again, a girl suddenly came out of a nearby store, smiled skillfully, and accosted Zhao Rang:

"Is this little brother lost?"

Zhao Rang looked back and saw that this girl's face and figure were extremely marked, especially the exposed skin, which seemed to have not been subjected to the wind and sand in the northwest, delicate and white and tender!

"It's just such a road, how can you get lost?"

No man would refuse a beautiful girl's words, and Zhao Rang would certainly be no exception, even if he knew that the girl must be thinking about the money in his pocket.

"How can you stand still without getting lost?"

Zhao Rang replied with a smile:

"Because I am thirsty, and hungry. When you are thirsty and hungry, you don't have the strength to walk! ”

The girl was even more eager when she heard this.

Immediately walked out of the store, hooked Zhao Rang's arm, and said:

"That's not a coincidence! I've got it all in the store! ”

Zhao Rang picked up the shelf and asked:

"What's there?"

"There is wine and food, it is the best on this street!"

"It's gone?"

Zhao Rang asked.

The girl put her finger to her mouth, made a silent gesture, then stood on tiptoe and whispered to him:

"You'll know when you enter the store!"

The shop was empty, and there was not a single table or chair.

After Zhao Rang walked in, the girl let go of her hand, and neatly moved out a table and two chairs from behind the counter, and placed them in the middle.

"Tut-tut!"

"What's wrong?"

The girl sat opposite Zhao Rang very naturally and asked.

"You don't see the best food at all."

Hearing Zhao Ran say this, the girl was not displeased, but chuckled and explained:

"Let me ask you, although there are good and bad wines, but more importantly, it is not the mood of drinking with the people who drink with you?"

Zhao Rang replied:

"That's right."

If you don't have a good mood when drinking, then even the best wine is bitter. If there are no like-minded drinkers, it is a stuffy drink, and either you get drunk quickly, or you can't taste it at all.

"Let me ask you again, does the dish have to be used for wine to make it taste better?"

Zhao Rang replied:

"Of course!"

If you only eat food and don't drink alcohol, that's a rice bucket!

Although this statement is somewhat absolute, it is absolutely correct for Zhao Rang.

In Yangguan Ye Sanniang's shop, he would rather cut off Zheng Gongzi's head with a knife, and he must drink a pot of "Western Regions Spring", just to not be a rice bucket!

"Since you agree with what I said, why do you still question that I don't have good food and wine in my store?"

The girl asked rhetorically, but Zhao Rang stopped him...... But he quickly realized what he meant.

"So the best wine and food in your store is not because of the wine, but because of you? As long as you're here, whatever you want to do will be the best, is that what you mean? ”

The girl's smile deepened, and two shallow dimples appeared on her face:

"You're so fast! It's not like some wooden heads, who are thirsty after talking for a long time, and they are still frowning and indifferent! ”

Zhao Rang continued:

"You have a lot of customers?"

The girl shook her head and replied:

"It depends on the amount of alcohol the guests have, which is usually not much. After all, I'm the only one in the store, so I can't accompany that much! ”

As she spoke, she had already opened the drawer under the table, and took out a few cold dishes, two wine glasses, and a large jug of wine from it like a trick.

"You came from afar, I'll do it first as a respect!"

The girl poured herself a large glass, and Zhao Rang had not yet picked up the wine glass, and drank it all with her neck up.

A cup of belly, and can't wait to fill it, said:

"Good things come in pairs!"

Then I couldn't help but say that I finished it in one gulp.

Unconsciously, Zhao Rang was also driven by this girl's heroism, and he was even more unwilling to condescend, so he picked up the cup and drank three cups in a row.

Fishy and spicy, this wine is indeed not very good.

But Zhao Rang was very happy.

Sure enough, the mood when drinking and the people you drink with are the most important.

I thought that when I entered the store, this girl would definitely sell her hue, but I didn't expect her to have such a large amount of alcohol!

The two of them pushed the cups and changed the glasses, and the drink was not lively, and after a while, they went down to half a pot of wine, and the rhythm eased a little.

Zhao Rang added a piece of chopsticks to the cold beef salad and asked:

"How many forces are there in this Western Regions Business Alliance?"

The girl put down her glass and replied:

"That's a lot."

Seeing that the girl had the heart to talk, Zhao Rang took the opportunity to ask. The clearer you know about the Western Regions Business Alliance, the less scruples you can have about being here.

"I know you're here to ask! But ......"

"But what?"

Zhao Rang hurriedly asked.

"A question of a glass of wine!"

The girl said with a glass in one hand and a finger in the other.
