Chapter 426: Zhong Rui's arrangement

Although as long as they left the north gate of Qingyun City, they would enter the Qingyun Mountain Range further north, but Yi Xifeng and his party were not in a hurry to go to the Qingyun Sect, they still remembered Gao Ning's instructions, after all, they were not familiar with the place here, and they had to find the organization first.

But this is also the first time for the four of them to come here, and they don't know the specific location of the stronghold of the Bills Organization, so they have to take a stroll around the main road now. Fortunately, Zhao Long is a child of the Zhao family after all, and the waist card he carries with him will be recognized by all the strongholds of the salary list organization, otherwise they are worth inquiring about every restaurant inn, asking about the price of the house, and then carrying out some "alternative" bargaining......

Zhao Long pinched the jade waist card in his hand and asked the shopkeeper of this restaurant, "Do you have a room?"

This shopkeeper is a seventy-year-old man, squinted his eyes, looked at the waist card in the young man's hand, and muttered: "This son, our store is a small business, and we only accept cash!"

Zhao Long's face was a little red, but fortunately, he was carrying a double knife at his waist at this time, wearing a hat on his head, coughed lightly twice and arched his hand: "Excuse me." ”

He quickly turned around and left, but when he came to the door of this restaurant, the shopkeeper stopped him and reminded: "If the prince is short of money and really needs money, you can go to the pawnshop in the south of the city to try." ”

He paused at his feet, thanked him softly, and left the restaurant.

"What's the matter, isn't it?" Yi Xifeng asked with a smile when he saw Zhao Long walking out quickly. However, Zhao Long, who was wearing a hat, obviously ignored him, raised his hand and threw the jade waist card to Lin Lei, and said indifferently: "Next family, it's your turn!"

Lin Lei smiled at the corner of his mouth, touched his straight hooked nose, and walked towards another inn dozens of feet away......

This was already the eighth place they visited, and at first Zhao Long could still ask a few stores, but later due to the eyes of the people around them, the four of them began to take turns to fight.

Soon Lin Lei also walked out of this inn, he shrugged his shoulders at the three people sitting in the carriage, and said helplessly: "This hotel is not good, but a young man wants to pay three taels of silver." ”

Saying that, when Lin Lei boarded the carriage, the young man in the inn actually chased him out, and when he saw Lin Lei bow down and enter the carriage, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.

Generally speaking, pawning things is the way that some down-and-out people will choose, after all, normal people will always carry enough entanglement when they go out, of course, looking at the young man's dress, he doesn't want to be poor, and there is something wrong with it.

The young man is a frequent visitor to this inn, and the biggest reason why he often eats wine in this inn instead of going to other restaurants is that the same reed pot burns knives, and this inn is cheaper than the surrounding restaurants. He is a budget-conscious person, and although he is not bad for money, he still eats and drinks in this more affordable place.

Seeing Lin Lei holding a jade waist card today, he fell in love at a glance, and consciously gave out three taels of silver, which was not less, but he didn't expect this person to even pay back the counteroffer, and just go out. Seeing that the things in his hand were gone, the young man was naturally very unwilling, so he chased after him.

"This little brother, please stay!" the young man shouted as he walked to the car. The driver stopped his horse and whispered a few words to the four behind him.

Lin Lei recognized this person, so he got out of the carriage and wondered, "Your Excellency has something to ask me for?"

"Little brother, do you sell your waist card? Three taels is also a lot, so let's see that you are not bad customers, I will add two taels, can I make up five taels of silver?"

Lin Lei looked at this young man fixedly, and saw that he had a rosacea nose at a young age, thinking that he was a stubborn master who bought drunk all day long, and he liked these sons' waist cards, jade pendants and other literary toys.

"Five taels of silver, hahaha, less!" Lin Lei said with a smile.

The young man shook his head and said, "It's a lot, it's a lot, if you put it in the pawnshop in the south of the city, it is estimated that you won't even be able to redeem three taels." ”

In fact, he knew in his heart that the true value of this jade waist card was about ten taels, but he was not worried that the pawnshop would give it high, because the people of Qingyun City knew that the pawnshop was quite dark! Except for some outsiders who were closed to information, the locals never pawned things there.

As the saying goes, the speaker was unintentional and listened intentionally, Zhao Long, who was sitting in the carriage, sighed lightly and muttered: "Is this pawnshop again......?"

Lin Lei naturally heard Zhao Long's muttering in the carriage, so he asked: "Since you said so, you should tell me where the pawnshop is?" If it is really not suitable, I will come to you to exchange it again!"

As soon as the young man heard this, his heart suddenly blossomed, and he nodded hurriedly and said, "Tong Suo is not a bully! Let me tell you, follow the road in front of you, go south, and ...... at the third intersection."

He roughly explained the location to the groom of the carriage, and then said to Lin Lei: "Little brother, go quickly, I am waiting for your good news in this inn! I can give five taels!"

Hearing this, Lin Lei smiled slightly, then turned around and got into the carriage.

......

After several turns, they finally came to this pawnshop located on the main road in the south of the city, with four big characters on it: "Yuyun Pawnshop"!

The four of them glanced at each other and walked in.

Sure enough, the decoration inside is very exquisite, but there are very few people, behind the high counter, there is a middle-aged shopkeeper, looking at the account book in his hand. Lin Lei and the others walked in, he also glanced at it, and then turned back to the account book.

And there were two guys in the lobby who were cleaning the hall, and they didn't greet people when they came in, muttering to themselves. The four of them couldn't hear what he said, but judging from the few words that popped up like "poor ghost" and "little ghost", it shouldn't be a good thing.

Zhao Long looked the pawnshop up and down, and then walked straight to the high counter.

"Whatever should be, present it first and then check it!" the shopkeeper shouted in a deep voice holding the account with one hand and holding the account page with the other.

The young man put the jade waist card in his hand on the counter, and after two breaths, he saw that the other party did not respond, looked up, and was suddenly a little speechless, the middle-aged shopkeeper was still looking at the accounts page by page, and did not see the waist card.

Zhao Long coughed lightly and said, "Please ask the shopkeeper, let's take a look first!"

The middle-aged shopkeeper frowned slightly, put down the account book, and then looked at the jade waist card on the counter.

......

Yi Xifeng looked at the exquisite decorations around him, this private room is different from the layout of Deciduous County, and it is very characteristic of Qingchuan County.

Due to the high mountain terrain of Qingchuan County, some more mountain moso bamboo is planted in the courtyard, although it is only early spring at this time, but the bamboo shoots of moso bamboo have already emerged from the soil layer, presumably in half a month these bamboos will rise from the ground!

And the four of them did guess correctly, this pawnshop is a stronghold of the Bills Organization!

The middle-aged man just now, after seeing this jade waist card, almost fell off the high chair behind the counter. He didn't reply to Zhao Long immediately, but asked the guy to greet the four of them first, and led them to this private room, then he held the jade waist card and ran away.

Zhao Long was naturally not worried about the other party's greed for his own waist card, because looking at the layout of the private room, everyone could already determine that this was undoubtedly the stronghold of the paylist.

After about a cup of tea, the middle-aged shopkeeper came back again, and as soon as he entered the door, he arched his hand to Zhao Long and said: "Qingchuan County, the out-of-county stronghold of the Salary Ranking Organization, the person in charge Zhao Chao, has seen Gongzi!"

As he spoke, he returned the jade waist card to the other party.

"This stronghold, but let's find it easily!" Yi Xifeng said with a wry smile when he saw this scene.

The middle-aged man asked with some confusion: "This is also where the next doubt, the four of you have come to Qingyun City, but what is the task? If you need to be the leader of the Gang Leader, but it doesn't matter!"

When the four of them heard this, they were stunned for a moment and then looked at each other, obviously surprised by what the other party said. Lin Lei on the side asked tentatively, "You don't know why we are here?"

The middle-aged man named Zhao Chao shook his head blankly, and Zhao Long frowned: "We came here to complete the task of ranking this time, but you didn't receive any notice?"

Hearing Zhao Long say this, the man was startled at first, and then arched his hand and said, "If the little one really receives a notice, before you enter Qingyun City, we will send someone to answer it, how can you be so lazy?"

Hearing this explanation, the four of them also discovered the clue and glanced at each other. They also realized that it seemed that someone must be playing tricks on this trip.

Yi Xifeng's heart moved, thinking of the previous grouping list, he asked quietly: "We are all guards in iron clothes, usually in order to complete the operation, who usually informs you of our whereabouts?"

Zhao Chao thought for a while and replied: "The whereabouts of the guard iron suit is naturally arranged by you yourself, and we just accept the order." ”

"But the back team?"

"Uh, yes, that's right! The operational arrangements of the guards are all arranged by the internal service team. The middle-aged shopkeeper nodded in response.

Yi Xifeng's eyes narrowed slightly, and he secretly thought in his heart: It's this Zhong Rui again, it seems that in the future active arrangement, there will be this person's hands and feet. It's really ghostly!

The attentive Li Xintian also noticed the change in the expression of the white young man next to him, and asked in a low voice, "Are you okay?"

A shy smile leaked from the corner of Yi Xifeng's mouth, and he sighed: "It's okay, since you have come to this Qingchuan County, don't rush to the Qingyun Sect first, let's have a good look first!"

The four of them were already teenagers, and they didn't know the mission they undertook, so they naturally agreed when they heard this.

The white young man came to the middle-aged man's side and said in a low voice: "Since food and accommodation are all taken care of by the internal service team, does the necessary expenses for going out to perform tasks also need to be sent out by the internal service team?"

When Zhao Chao heard this, he understood the key after a little thought, and said with a smile in his eyes: "That's nature, that's nature!"

Seeing that he had received an affirmative answer, he reached out and patted the old man on the shoulder, and under the stunned expression of the other party, he got up and walked out.

"Let's go, let's go and investigate the information of Qingyun City first!" With the words of the white young man, the four of them headed towards the largest restaurant in the city.

......

Jiuhua Building, the largest restaurant in Qingyun City, is also one of the best restaurants.

There is a difference between a restaurant and a restaurant and an inn, and the gap between them is a bit similar to the difference between a modern five-star hotel and an express hotel.

Of course, it is difficult to have a single restaurant in Qingyun City, such as Qingbo Boat, Denghe Pavilion, Qianshan Mansion, these three restaurants are also as famous as Jiuhualou, but they have their own characteristics, and they are all one of the best restaurants in Qingyun City. The biggest feature of Jiuhua Building is that it is big!

Jiuhua Building has nine floors! It is more like a tower than a restaurant. However, this place is located at the foot of Qingyun Mountain, and its own mountain spring water flows down, and it converges into a large lake in the east of Qingyun City, and this Jiuhua Building is built on the side adjacent to the lake in the east of the city.

Yi Xifeng and his entourage took the big shopkeeper of the Yuyun pawnshop to Jiuhua Building. The five of them went directly to the ninth floor, watching the lake in the distance reflect the sunlight, and the five of them chose a table with an excellent location.

Xiao Er was also very enthusiastic, but Yi Xifeng obviously didn't give him a chance to show his eloquence.

"The burning knife is a bit spicy, and I don't need to ask for that Chunfeng River vinegar fish, I'm almost tired of eating it. The white boy muttered and read the menu.

The little second asked with some confusion: "What does the guest officer want to write?"

Yi Xifeng smiled slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Don't do the few I just said, and serve the other dishes all over again." ”

Xiao Er was stunned for a moment, and then replied excitedly: "Okay, guest officer, wait a minute! I'll serve you food!" After saying that, he ran downstairs happily.

The corner of Lin Lei's mouth smiled slightly, he had already guessed what Yi Xifeng wanted to do, and the middle-aged shopkeeper also squinted, as if he hadn't woken up.

As for Zhao Long and Li Xintian, both of them are senior foodies, one needs to rely on food to strengthen the body because of exercises, and the other is simply very fond of eating. So except for Yi Xifeng, the four people didn't raise many objections.

Soon, one delicacy after another was served on the table.

The venison, with the clean stones on the riverbed, the tender deer leg that is burned red and cooked, the aroma alone makes people appetize!

Steamed river eight fresh, compared with the general sauce stew or vinegar, is not as good as the taste of directly steamed. White fish, silver shrimp, red crab, green spot, purple shellfish, black ginseng, green lake algae, yellow lotus!

Honey black bear paw, wild mountain bear in the mountain forest, with white wild honey abundant in Qingyun mountain stream, is not only a fusion of black and white, but also the best of mountain treasures!

......

Watching the delicious food on the table, the five of them naturally mobilized with all their might, and even the middle-aged shopkeeper who had been squinting just now also put down his chopsticks.

Yi Xifeng drank a pot of spring algae wine here, the color is green and the color is similar to the color of the vegetarian wine he brewed, but it definitely does not have as many herbs as the vegetarian wine, but in terms of simple taste, it is also more layered.

Since Zhang Ming gave him a pot of nourishing wine that day, and the original agreement to send wine after March, the time is almost up, and he secretly wonders in his heart whether he will drink again after he goes back this time.

In fact, Yi Xifeng didn't know that the reason why Zhang Ming had the opportunity that day to follow Li Chengtao and Li Chengqian to fight against Ji Shenfu was to send him wine.

A few days after the white boy left, Lin Hengshan led the team back, and of course, the three altars of "Nourishing God Wine" came back together!
