Chapter 167: True Purpose
Ah Tian is even more afraid that after he talks about the bride price, Li Huaiyun will not be able to take it out at that time, which will be quite embarrassing, and it will affect the relationship between them.
He thought about it again and again, so he said a little less, and he was also prepared in his heart that Li Huaiyun couldn't take it, and when the time came, he would say that he would find a way, so that Li Huaiyun didn't worry too much.
"About a thousand taels!"
"What?" Li Huaiyun clasped his hands in front of him, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he said in surprise, "It's so much!" ”
Ah Tian saw his embarrassed look, "With her family background, the bride price is already too little, and we have discussed it several times!" I also thought about it for a long time and felt that it was reasonable. ”
Li Huaiyun suddenly frowned, feeling that Ah Tian was purely comforting himself.
In your family, there is still room for negotiation with others? I'm afraid that if someone makes a request, you can agree without thinking about it, and you have been thinking about it for a long time? I'm afraid I don't think with my lower body!
As a good brother, it was not easy for him to expose these in person, so he only asked, "Can you afford such a high bride price?" ”
Ah Tian shook his head helplessly, "I definitely can't afford it, so I found a money bank, and this money bank was opened by Fang Yuan's relatives, and the interest given was relatively small." ”
After listening to this, Li Huaiyun suddenly understood a little, this is obviously a marriage fraud case, the woman deliberately lured people to marry her, took the opportunity to set up, and let people go to the money bank to pay off debts and borrow money, there must be a routine in this.
This marriage is dangerous for Ah Tian!
Ah Tian silently lowered his head and said humbly, "Brother, I don't know how many silver taels you can borrow from me?" ”
Li Huaiyun muttered in his heart, to be honest, I really don't want to borrow a penny, you lick the appearance of a dog, I'm afraid that I can't afford to write a letter of retirement in the future.
He was determined to help, and when he gave money, he took precautions, "I will probably help you solve seven or eight hundred taels!" ”
"Ahh So much? Ah Tian was very surprised, he couldn't have imagined that Li Huaiyun would be able to take out so many silver taels now.
That way, I don't have to borrow money from the bank.
He didn't believe it a little, after all, a few days ago, he still lent money to Li Huaiyun, "Really? Brothers? You didn't lie to me! ”
"Of course it's true, why should I lie to you, I've solved a few cases these days, and I've got more rewards, plus this time, it's quite impressive!"
Ah Tiantou looked envious, if he even took out seven or eight hundred taels casually, then there must be a surplus in the family, he suddenly regretted it in his heart, and his tone of voice was also a little sour.
"It can't be so many! We have not had such a high reward before. ”
Li Huaiyun sighed heavily, "Don't look at these silver taels are quite a lot, all of them are exchanged for lives, if you don't pay attention to it, this money will be used to find a cemetery for yourself!" ”
He hurriedly explained, because he didn't want Ah Tian to feel regretful, "In recent years, the demons faced by the Demon Slaying Division have become stronger and stronger in cultivation, and they have become more and more rampant, so it's not easy to deal with!" ”
"Hmm!" Ah Tian also sighed lightly, and after knowing the other party's difficulty, his heart was a little calmer.
Since he has paid so much money, Li Huaiyun is ready to make these things clear, and whether the other party listens or not is his own problem, and he can be regarded as responsible for the silver taels lent out.
"Do you really want to marry this woman?"
Ah Tian said in an affirmative tone, "That's nature, being a man has to start from the beginning, there's nothing to say!" ”
"Have you ever thought that this is relative, and only one person is not enough."
When Ah Tian heard this, he really became emotional, and asked directly, "Brother, what do you mean by this!" ”
"I just want to say that this woman is not as good as you think! You should think more carefully, there are not many women who are suitable for you, why do you have to find someone who is not the right person. ”
"Huaiyun, we have also worked together for so many years, and we are like brothers, but brother, your words make me very indignant, you are ready to lend me silver taels, but you can't use this to slander Fang Yuan."
Ah Tian spoke in a tone of anger and awe-inspiring look.
However, in Li Huaiyun's view, it's just incompetent rage! Do you really have to borrow money if you have the ability?
I can't listen to it! I haven't gotten to the point yet!
"Then you want to continue to listen to me? Or do you want to make up the bride price yourself?
Ah Tian was silent for a moment, he turned his head away, and said helplessly, "Brother, you can finish your words, but I won't change my mind!" ”
"You can not change, I just hope that your family can understand and help you, but they are all women and children, and they must live on you, you can't let your sister marry in exchange for bride price!"
"Brother, don't talk too much!"
"If you know that's too much, why don't you listen to me?"
"The two of you are actually not suitable, especially you, brother, the two are already very different in class, why are you so persistent in marrying this woman."
"You still think too little, you don't realize it at all, that woman is playing with you in the palm of your hand, I am worried about your future, if I don't help you, you have to go to the bank to borrow money, and when the time comes, you will be in debt, and many things you can do will dissipate, just thinking about repaying the loan every day."
Li Huaiyun raised his hand and pointed at Ah Tian, "Brother, today's words are also here, listen to them if you can, and see you go yourself." You're on your own,"
Ah Tian was on the side, so he could only nod silently and whispered that his words would be carefully considered.
Li Huaiyun also knew that it was impossible to persuade Ah Tian to live in two sentences at will, about this woman, unless he was allowed to understand more deeply,
He spread his hands and smiled on his face, "Then I'm here to offer my future blessings to the two of you!" ”
As soon as Ah Tian heard this, the hatred in his heart was also a little less, "Then thank you brother for your blessing!" There is still some time to get married. ”
Li Huaiyun raised his head and glanced at the night, "It's late now, I still have some things, and I have to go to the Demon Division, so I won't bother." ”
"How can you bother! Brother, you're so polite! "Ah Tian is so respectful, although the two are still brothers now, there has long been a gap between them, but for the sake of the other party's desire to pay, he can only do this,
"We'll get together again next time when you're free!"
"Hmm!"
Li Huaiyun reminded more, "Since the marriage is not in a hurry, you must pay attention to the family, you must think more, and you must not let that woman say anything, otherwise what you have will know, and you will only be more passive." ”
Ah Tian bowed his head and thanked him, he obviously couldn't listen to these questions, but after Li Huaiyun mentioned it, he had to say that he must pay more attention.
After the two separated, Li Huaiyun trotted all the way to the Demon Slayer Division, he was thinking about when to take time to meet the woman, the last time she intended to approach, she must have taken herself as a target, or to keep him away from Ah Tian and prevent him from destroying his plan.
He needs to find a suitable time, Ah Tian stays in Qianji Pavilion and has no time to come out, so that he can not be calculated.
Why doesn't this guy want to think about his elderly mother and young sister!
When Li Huaiyun came to the Demon Slaying Division, he happened to meet Brother Kun, and the joyful look on the other party's face couldn't be hidden at all, after all, Li Huaiyun guarded the safety of the palace by himself, and was greatly praised by the secretary.
Brother Kun couldn't hide the smile on his face, and before he could speak, he was dodged away by Li Huaiyun.
"Ah Yun, it's so late, you go slowly, what's the hurry, back then...!"
Qin Gang was just about to rest when he heard a knock outside the door!
"Who?"
"I, Si Zheng!"
"Huaiyun!" Qin Gang was slightly vigilant, that guy was so seriously injured, how could he recover so quickly, it was very likely to be a trap.
He replied quietly, "Coming here so late, could it be that something big is happening?" ”
"Not really, I just want to find out something."
"Why don't you get some rest?"
"I have something in my heart, and I can't sleep well!"
"Then come in!"
Li Huaiyun pushed open the door, walked into the room, and then closed the door gently.
Qin Gang got up and sat down in the front hall, and when he saw Li Huaiyun, no one could imitate the energy and look on his body.
That's the real deal!
"You were originally seriously injured, why did you recover so quickly this time? This doesn't make sense! ”
"Well, I want to thank my aunt a lot, it was her superb medical skills and the use of precious medicinal materials that pulled me back from the ghost gate.
"This woman's medical skills are by no means ordinary!"
"Yes, and thanks to the green capsule in the arsenal! It contains this account of a man like me, who is seriously ill. ”
Qin Gang stroked his gray beard, he heard the officials of the arsenal say that Li Huaiyun copied the inner scripture of the green sac and brought it back, it seems that this action saved his life, providence!
"Look at how well you've recovered!"
"Hmm!"
"Why did you come here so late?"
"It's really heart-wrenching, I can't sleep well!"
Qin Gang deeply felt that Li Huaiyun had a rare quality.
This young man has little sense of responsibility, and he has come to understand the follow-up of the case after this time period.
Li Huaiyun said, "I want to know how this case will develop in the future!" ”
"Also, was that reminder correct before I fell to the ground?"
Qin Gang nodded affirmatively, "Your reminder is very correct!" But when we went back, that monster had already invaded the bottom of the locked demon prison, and the seal was directly opened, and in the end, it was still a step too late. ”
"That's true!" Li Huaiyun immediately had an uneasy look on his face.
"Don't worry, that thing has been taken out of Kyoto, for the time being, there is no major danger, the Demon Slayer Division has been reorganized, and the tracking and defense efforts have been increased!"
Li Huaiyun said, "That black-robed man began to lay out more than ten years ago, collecting saltpeter, sulfur and charcoal in the palace, we all thought that this guy wanted to use the sewer under the palace to destroy the main pile supporting the sewer with homemade explosives, but we never thought that this act was actually just a cover." ”
"yes!" Qin Gang sat there, he couldn't help but sigh softly, he couldn't find out in time, he was also to blame, and the most important thing was that he was led by the nose the whole time, if there was a bigger move, the consequences would be quite serious.
Li Huaiyun was in the room, pacing back and forth, pondering for a moment, and then raised his head suddenly, "No! I still don't think so! ”
"What's wrong!"
"This black-robed man's behavior of wanting to blow up the sewer is definitely not a pretense, it can only be said that at that time, we didn't consider that the Demon Slayer Division would have a problem!"
"Now the sewers have not been destroyed, but their plans have been put on hold for the time being, the minister, must not be careless, and must strengthen the defense of Qihua Palace."
"That's nature,"
Li Huaiyun said, "They want to blow up the sewers and take what is sealed in the rock wall!" Si Zheng, I think when I can find someone to take out the things sealed in it first. ”
"Take it out, I'm afraid it's not appropriate,"
"Then let us know what's in there!"
"Okay! We can think of a way. Qin Gang picked up the teacup and took a sip gently, "By the way, have you found anything about the black-robed man?" ”
"That guy should have been an official of the Criminal Department, and it seems that he found something that he shouldn't know, so he was killed."
"What's not to know?"
