"Huh?"

The old bustard was stunned for a moment, and looked at the serious appearance of this nobleman, before confirming that he had heard correctly.

His face changed slightly, and he said with a smiling face.

"Sir, my daughter, I don't know how many powerful people and how many gentry miss her, of course you have a noble status, but there are many nobles in the capital who like her. ”

The old bustard looked at Zhang Rui's pretended Hongxiu, and consciously guessed some of her unnatural reasons.

"Besides, my mother worked hard to raise her daughter, although she is a lowly person, she still hopes that she will be good, and she is worried about whether she will suffer if she is redeemed, and many things depend on the wishes of her daughters......"

Ji Yuan saw that the bustard was chattering, mixed with some temptation, and immediately interrupted her.

"This mother, Miss Hongxiu must be willing, just say the number. ”

The old bustard frowned and quietly looked at Hongxiu, wanting to get some hint from her face, but Hongxiu didn't look at her at all.

"Wow, it seems that the other party really knows the identity, this girl is relying on it, and she is ready to get out!"

The old bustard faced Ji Yuan again with a sad face.

"Sir, this matter is not something I can say in one word, you also know that there are countless dignitaries and nobles who like my daughter, if she goes with you, I can't afford to be a big show boat!"

Xin Xu felt that the atmosphere was too strange, and the old bustard stretched out his hand to pull Hongxiu while selling hardship.

"Sir, I'll go and talk to my daughter for a few heart-to-heart words first, and you can rest first. ”

After finishing speaking, he pulled Hongxiu and walked outside the house, Zhang Rui looked at Ji Yuan, and saw that the other party nodded, so he got up and went out with the bustard.

As soon as the two of them went out, Du Guangtong showed his figure again, and Wang Li immediately asked.

"Mr. Ji, Miss Zhang has been taken out, will she be fine?"

Ji Yuan looked at him.

"What's the matter? She's not a weak woman. ”

Wang immediately shut up, he was obsessed with skin, and now that he remembered that the other party was not a mortal at all.

Outside, the old bustard dragged Hongxiu all the way through the verandah, and walked to another private room and closed the door before speaking.

"Daughter, why did you just go from birth? Those dignitaries ransom you out, not at most want you to be a concubine, and it will end dismally for a few years......

Zhang Rui smiled reluctantly.

"Mr. Different ......"

"It's not the same, you can't laugh anymore!And if you leave, what will I do, Mom, and what will we do in Daxiulou......

Zhang Rui just felt uncomfortable, but she was not an ordinary woman, and she had also seen people's hearts, and when she heard the words of this old bustard, her face turned cold.

"What's the matter, without the cash cow of Hongxiu, life will be sad? I've made a lot of money over the years, aren't you still satisfied?"

"You...... Mom, what I said before was not a lie, those dignitaries and nobles were of noble birth, don't think that you can talk and laugh with them on my big show boat, you really think that you are equal to them, you are just a plaything in their eyes!"

The old bustard's eyes narrowed, and he said what he thought was a heart-wrenching sentence.

"Just like Xiao Gongzi before, don't you also think that you have met the truth, but as a result, you will no longer appear when you are tired of playing, it has been two years, right?"

The bustard remembers very well that it was at that time that his daughter finally let go of that layer of reserve.

However, she didn't see any expectant look on Hongxiu's face.

"Hmph, you can get some money if you give a happy word, otherwise the bamboo basket will be empty!"

Zhang Rui didn't have the patience to say slowly, if it didn't work, she would fight out, and there were many women who fled from the Qinglou.

Hongxiu's aggressive momentum made the old bustard stunned, how could Hongxiu be the same as a different person today, with a backer, and even her personality changed?

After thinking about it, the bustard still said softly.

"You give my mother and me, how powerful is that person, can he be bigger than the original son of the Xiao family?"

Zhang Rui sneered, she didn't know who the son of the Xiao family was, but she still knew a little bit about what Mr. Ji was.

Simply said half-truthfully.

"Xiao family, hehe, the power in the world is nothing in the eyes of Mr. ”

The old bustard was shocked.

"Are you still a member of the royal family? But you are no longer perfect, how can the children of the royal family look down on you?"

Zhang Ruiqiang resisted the urge to slap her, and opened the door directly and prepared to go out.

As a result, when I opened the door, I found two burly healthy women and two sturdy turtle men standing outside.

"Daughter, climbing high branches is not your way of climbing, you won't recognize people when you turn your face, I will talk about your mother, you just go back to the room to rest first. A few of you, send the Hongxiu girl back to the room!"

"Yes"

A healthy woman outside answered and was ready to be strong.

"Look for death!"

Zhang Rui was angry from the heart, and directly slapped the two women in the faces.

The two fierce women who weighed as much as two red showers were fanned and fell to the sides, and they stepped on seven or eight steps in small steps, but they still couldn't stabilize their figures.

"Bang" and "bang" fell down after two sounds, and the boat felt shaky.

The two strong men were stunned, and before they could turn their heads, their eyes flickered, and their crotches were each kicked like lightning.

"Uhh

The two turtle males turned pale, and they arched themselves with their crotches in their arms and fell down.

"Hmph, I advise you not to mess with me!"

Zhang Rui snorted coldly, flicked his sleeves and left.

This scene frightened the old bustard, and he didn't dare to stop Hongxiu when he watched him leave.

After a while, Zhang Rui returned to the elegant room where Ji Yuan was, opened the door and said.

"Mr. Ji, I've thought about it, we need to see the faces of mortals? It's a big deal to fight out, anyway, as long as Hongxiu has a trace of leaving the Qinglou, it will be. ”

In fact, it is okay to let Ji Yuan and the others go first, and Zhang Rui will leave later, but she really doesn't want to stay here for a moment.

Ji Yuan arched his hand apologetically towards Zhang Rui.

"Miss Zhang, don't worry, the trouble you just made is still wonderful, it is naturally not a big trouble to go out safely, to put it mildly, in the eyes of the old bustard, the women here are to some extent commodities to be sold at the price, and the price is naturally easy to say. ”

"Then she wants the lion to open her mouth, and really dares to ask for a sky-high price?"

Wang Li subconsciously asked.

"We fooled around with this money, and then someone will naturally pay it, and he should pay it!"

Ji Yuan pondered and said a word, before turning his head and arching his hand towards the water god Du Guangtong.

"Du Shuishen, it's up to you this time. ”

Du Guangtong drank all the tea in the cup in front of him, stood up and returned the salute.

"Mr. Ji, please rest assured, Du will definitely do it and leave first!"

"Okay, water god, please!"

Du Guangtong then bowed his hand slightly towards Zhang Rui and Wang Li, and without waiting for the two to return the salute, he turned into a ray of water and went out of the window.

"Mr. Ji, what are you doing here?"

Zhang Rui just came back, and he didn't know what they had discussed before, so he was very curious, Wang Li coughed, and said in the tone of a storyteller.

"This time, as soon as the water god went, the general led the good demon in the water, went ashore and turned into a team of people, and came to redeem the Hongxiu girl with the ransom money. ”

The appearance still has to be pretended, and such a person is definitely not suitable for taking out a lot of wealth.

Too much had happened this night for Da Xiulou.

An extremely noble and mysterious guest came, and at a glance, Hongxiu wanted to redeem her.

Then a large group of fierce and vicious subordinates came, and just by their glance, those healthy servants and turtles in the Daxiu Building sweated down their spines.

But the most ferocious is not an outsider, but the Hongxiu girl herself, this daughter who is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, that night was so fierce that she suppressed all the women in Daxiu Building, and more than one person felt that even the old bustard was a little afraid of her.

Of course, in the end, Daxiulou did not suffer a loss, and the wealth he gained still made the old bustard smile reluctantly, although the chicken that laid the golden eggs was gone, but in the end he still got a lot of money.

It's just a slap in the face by his "daughter", which makes the old bustard feel painful when he laughs.

A small box of gold, a small box of heavy pearls, the gold is five hundred taels, naturally not a small amount, but especially precious are those pearls, all of which are big and round, which are simply difficult to buy with money, and can make most women crazy.

On the big show boat in the big show building, there are also many well-known women, who are not supported by Hongxiu alone, and one less Hongxiu will not hurt their muscles and bones, and they have already formed a mature training model, and they will immediately vigorously hold a newcomer.

During the day of the second day, on the Su River dozens of miles outside the city of Chengsu Mansion, there was a small boat advancing, and Ji Yuan, Du Guangtong, Zhang Rui and Wang Li were all standing on it.

This boat is a bit like the one that was on the Chunmu River at the beginning, it is not a problem to sit seven or eight people, and the rowing is Ji Yuan.

"It's the so-called fish-eyed mixed pearls, and I saw it last night. ”

Ji Yuan smiled and chatted with Du Guangtong, who was standing on the side, about last night's events, this water god was quite meticulous in his work, and Ji Yuan didn't make much of a move in the back.

"Hey, Mr. Ji praised it falsely, I went to find the person who was looking for the Yin Division of Chengsu Mansion, and checked the redemption price of a few Oiran in Daxiu Lou over the years, a few hundred taels of gold is considered a sky-high price, and if it is an old and decrepit person, it is even less, and the gold we gave did not make that Daxiu Lou lose. ”

The gold given is real gold, but pearls are not all.

A box of gold was "borrowed" by Du Guangtong from the cellar of a big money village in Chengsu Mansion, and Ji Yuan would naturally go to the person who hid Zhen Hongxiu to make up for it.

But that box of pearls was not what Da Xiulou deserved, and Du Guang would personally "get" it back in a few days.

Du Guangtong hoped that the person he found couldn't come up with the money, so he would help Mr. Ji solve the problem and find a way to properly solve this matter, so that the good relationship between him and Mr. Ji could be more stable.

Although Sushui is not directly connected to the Tongtian River, there are several streams that meander to the Tongtian River, and Ji Yuan is not impatient, so he plans to row to Gyeonggi Province like this, and with his rowing speed, it will not take half a month to get to Beijing.

After chatting with the water god for a few words, the other party finally said goodbye and left, Ji Yuan looked at Wang Li who was dozing in the cabin, and thought about it before saying.

"Mr. Wang, I didn't sleep all night yesterday, please rest first, and when you wake up, Ji still has a little story to tell you, or you can compile a book. ”

Wang Li leaned back in the cabin and continued to doze off after a confused "hey", and fell asleep after a while.
