Volume 11 Chapter 110 Yuzhou Xin'andang
Bidding farewell to Huang Yaoshi and his party, Li Xiaoyao flew back to the boat with Lin Yueru, and the big boat went down the river, all the way smoothly without any accidents.
It's just that when they arrived near Baling, when they passed by the eight-hundred-mile Dongting, they encountered water thieves blocking the way, and they didn't seek money and kill people, they robbed the people's daughters or something, but they just collected protection money.
Of course, if they don't pay the protection fee, they don't mind robbing, but they will change people.
Lin Yueru brought out her father's name, but what made her miscalculate was that although the name of the leader of the Southern Martial Arts Alliance was loud, these water thieves were not from the martial arts.
Although the green forest road and the martial arts are inextricably linked, they have their own circles after all, and the name of the martial arts alliance leader is not good for them, and it is not as effective as the name of a certain scoop on the road.
And then they were taught to be human beings.
Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru didn't kill them, they just dismantled their boats into pieces and let them swim back by themselves.
If there are people who can't swim, then they can only consider themselves unlucky, and if they can't swim, what kind of water thief should you be?
Seven days after departing from Yangzhou, the ship successfully arrived at the Dadu port of Chongqing, where Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru went ashore.
Lin Yueru sent a sum of money to the captain of the ship and the sailors, and wrote them a handwritten letter, asking them to take the letter to Suzhou Linjiabao to find Lin Tiannan.
When passing through Yangzhou, they can pick up their families, and it doesn't matter if they don't want to immigrate to Suzhou, Suzhou to Yangzhou, it is only a day's journey by boat, which is much better than running long distances to transport goods before.
Entering the bustling city of Yuzhou, Li Xiaoyao quickly inquired about the location of Xin'andang.
After all, this pawnshop is too famous in Yuzhou, the boss is the richest man in Yuzhou, and the people of Yuzhou may not know who Taishou is, but they will never know who Xin'an is as the boss.
For example, in Huaxia, you don't know who the senior officials of the province are, but can you not know who Jack Ma is?
......
In the southwest of Yuzhou City, after Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru stepped on a stone bridge, they saw the big pawnshop where people came and went, and it was very lively.
Unlike the pawnshops that are generally not open for three years and open for three years, the boss of Xin'an is very benevolent and the most fair price, so even customers who are a little farther away would rather walk more and come here to be a thing.
Therefore, Xin'an's business has always been very good, although the profit is small because of the concession to customers, but because the number of customers increases, it earns more.
"Huh, what a cute kitten. As soon as she entered Xin'andang, Lin Yueru's eyes suddenly lit up, and she saw a lazy little white cat lying on the open windowsill, and suddenly her eyes were full of stars and she was ready to step forward to tease the cat.
Li Xiaoyao grabbed her and said cautiously: "Don't provoke it, this is not a kitten." ”
This kitten actually gave him a very dangerous feeling, and looking at its image, it felt like a white tiger that had shrunk many times.
Although Lin Yueru was puzzled, she would still listen to Li Xiaoyao's words, and looked at the little white cat curiously, but did not rashly approach again.
The little white cat was lazily lying on the windowsill basking in the sun, and after hearing Li Xiaoyao's words, he suddenly raised his head to look at Li Xiaoyao, and a pair of cat eyes narrowed slightly.
Seeing this, Li Xiaoyao subconsciously hugged his fist at it, and to Lin Yueru's surprise, the kitten actually nodded to Li Xiaoyao, and then put his head on his front legs and closed his eyes.
Li Xiaoyao whispered to Lin Yueru: "Now you believe it!"
Lin Yueru nodded again and again, and was about to say something, when she heard a coquettish and timid inquiry voice behind her, "Excuse me...... Are you here to be something?"
When the two looked back, they saw a pretty and cute little girl who looked like she was fourteen or fifteen years old, petite, with long blond hair, and a bun tied to the top of her head, standing there timidly looking at them.
Li Xiaoyao smiled gently at her and said, "Little sister, we are here to find someone." ”
The little girl tilted her head and said, "Who are you looking for?"
Li Xiaoyao thought for a while and said, "I came to find the owner of this shop, well, if nothing else, I should call him Shigong." ”
The little girl was stunned for a moment, she carefully looked Li Xiaoyao up and down, and suddenly asked tentatively, "Are you ...... Little Lizi's son?"
"Little Lizi?" Li Xiaoyao's expression froze, he looked at the little girl in astonishment, and said a little awkwardly: "If the little plum in your mouth is called Li Sansi, then that's right, my name is Li Xiaoyao, Li Sansi is my father, I came to find my master, just to ask him if he knows the whereabouts of my father." ”
After Li Xiaoyao said this, he suddenly noticed that the little girl's expression had changed, and there seemed to be a hint of ...... in her eyes when she looked at him Commiseration?
Li Xiaoyao sighed in his heart, and a trace of bad feeling came to his mind.
The little girl was silent for two breaths, and then said: "The boss is not here, he hasn't come to the store for many years, it's all the Shaodong family who is taking care of Xin'andang, but the Shaodong family didn't come today, you come with me! I'll take you to find Sister Nightshade." ”
The little girl turned around and walked to the back hall, and Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru hurriedly followed.
Lin Yueru opened her mouth and asked, "Little sister, what's your name?"
The little girl turned back and smiled at her, and said, "My name is Jacaranda." ”
Lin Yueru nodded and said, "Why do you call my senior brother's father, Xiao Lizi, instead of uncle or uncle?"
The jacaranda smiled and said, "Because I am so senior!"
"Oh, that's right!"
While talking, the three of them entered the back hall, and the jacaranda walked to a room and knocked on the door, saying, "Sister Long, it's me." ”
The door was quickly opened, and a beautiful girl with the same petite and delicate figure, not much taller than the jacaranda, with a blue dress and blue hair, and a gentle and graceful temperament, walked out.
"What's the matter? who are?" The blue-clothed nightshade walked out of the room, saw Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru at a glance, and asked the jacaranda in surprise.
Jacaranda secretly glanced at Li Xiaoyao and said, "His name is Li Xiaoyao, he is the son of Xiao Lizi, and he made a special trip to the boss to inquire about Xiao Lizi's whereabouts." ”
The blue-clothed nightshade was stunned when he heard this, his gentle face changed color slightly, he slowly walked towards Li Xiaoyao, looked at his face, and sighed faintly, "You really look like your father, you are young, and you already have such a profound cultivation, if you think twice, you must be very happy if you know that you have a son like this!"
Li Xiaoyao asked cautiously, "Dare to ask the girl?"
The blue-clothed nightshade looked at him softly, and said, "I am your master's sister, according to the seniority, you have to call me my aunt." ”
“......”
Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru were full of confusion, Shigong's sister? That must be at least in her sixties, right? What......
In fact, he really guessed wrong, he is already more than a thousand years old, and people in Xin'andang basically can't judge their age by appearance.
The jacaranda looks like a fourteen or fifteen-year-old little Lori, but in fact she is no less than one hundred and fifty years old.
