It's only been a day since the "opening" of a drunken pavilion, and no one expected the first business to come so quickly. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info But in this Lin'an city, everything goes fast - especially if some people are too eager to kill others, then it's not surprising that anything can be done.

The Black Bamboo Club doesn't have to care about the grudges between others, it's just to collect money and do things. But after the note was unfolded, Shen Fengming couldn't laugh.

He didn't even have to look at the price code—he knew that no matter how much he paid, Jun Li would never take the deal.

Jun Li stared at the note for a long time. He then finished the dinner quietly, but apparently a little absent-mindedly. Thorn and Okra could only look at each other - it was about the Black Bamboo Society, and it was inconvenient for the two of them to ask for details, and when the fat woman Qin Song came to clean up the table, the two simply avoided themselves first, and they had to discuss.

“...... What do you think?" Shen Fengming asked tentatively.

"Do you recognize the two people at that table?" Jun Li said.

"I recognize, I've seen it here twice. Shen Fengming said, "Most of them also live nearby." ”

Jun Li's eyebrows furrowed. "What do you do?"

"It doesn't matter what you do—it's very clear, it's because they live in the neighborhood, and they often come here to drink, that they're taken advantage of, and they're here to make this deal for others—and I guess our lord doesn't want to reveal his identity, so he found two people to run errands. ”

"Can you find it?" Jun Li looked up, "Follow these two people—you shouldn't be able to find out who made them come, right?"

"It's going to be checked—it's always going to be checked. Shen Fengming said, "But-the Black Bamboo Society never does such a thing." If the owner doesn't want to come forward, we won't investigate, and everyone will be fine. ”

Jun Li sneered, squeezed the note in the palm of his hand, and threw it on the table. "You mean to pretend you didn't see it?"

"It depends on whether the other party is sincere or not. Shen Fengming glanced at the hall - Ah He and the others had already gone to the back to eat, leaving only Wu Changyin guarding the counter.

"Ah Yin, how much did the two of them pay for the drink?" he asked.

The young man was stunned for a moment, and looked for it on the counter, "That's it...... So much. In the corner he picked up a small stack of uncollected copper coins, about twenty.

Shen Fengming's eyebrows furrowed slightly, "Isn't there anything else?"

"No—oh, and this. Ah Yin touched the table for a long time, and picked out a piece of flower paper that was already greasy with two fingers, "Is it useful for them to take the money from this bag?"

Shen Fengming secretly said in his heart, "Sure enough"-"Take it." He said.

Greasy paper spread out on the table—a silver ticket from Zhong'an Bank.

Wu Changyin didn't know what the expressions of the two of them were, so he grabbed his head and walked away. It's no wonder that he - the "silver ticket" is not a new thing in Lin'an City, but Ah Yin may have never seen it, and he doesn't know a few words, of course, he doesn't know that this "waste paper" is worth 8,000 taels of silver.

Shen Fengming shook his head again, "This person doesn't seem to want to be happy, he doesn't know that Heizhu doesn't like silver tickets, only real money." ”

"It doesn't matter if it's real money or silver tickets. Jun Li said coldly, "If eight thousand taels are to buy his own life, I will accept it." ”

"You calm down. Shen Fengming knew that Jun Li was angry, so he could only persuade him, "It's not strange that someone in Lin'an City wants to buy Xia Xiaogongzi's life, and it's not strange to buy his life to come to the Black Bamboo Club - we do business, if we can't talk about it, we won't talk about it, and if we don't want to take it, it's not a big deal, instead of getting angry, it's better to get a reminder." ”

- Eight thousand taels to kill one person is not a small amount. But if you want to kill Xia Chen, the young owner of Xiajiazhuang, of course, you can't do it with any amount of money.

Jun Li was silent for a moment before he said, "Even if you don't track down this person, you can still roughly guess his identity and origin - you have lived in Xiajiazhuang for a while, do you know any enemies in the Xia family?"

"This person got the news of Heizhu so quickly, and he was always in Lin'an City--the owner of Xia Zhuang has a high reputation in Lin'an City, but I really haven't heard of any enemies in him - if you really want to say that there is, last year he had the most tense relationship with Suzaku, but now that the owner of the village has gone to the south, Xia Xiaogongzi is far away from officialdom, and Suzaku has no reason to harm him again; ”

Jun Li shook his head. "Whether it's Suzaku or the crown prince—they can't expect to find Heizhu to take Jun Chao's life. Even if the prince doesn't know my relationship with the Xia family, he should always know that you and I have helped Lord Xia on the way south to Guangdong, and of course he has a great friendship with the Xia family, how could Heizhu accept this invitation. ”

"Maybe he wants to try a fluke?" Shen Fengming said, "After all, in some people's hearts, there is nothing that money can't do, and what is the value of friendship? Although the prince's party doesn't expect you to help him, they may also feel that they just hide their identities and don't tell them clearly. ”

"Heh, even if I'm that kind of person," Jun Li sneered, "Eight thousand taels?

Shen Fengming smiled, "It's just a guess - there are other possibilities, and we guess the same." Speaking of 'Jiangnan No. 1 Village', I thought that if it weren't for the prince, this matter might have nothing to do with the court, and the matter would be out of the rivers and lakes. Although Xia Xiaogongzi has been very low-key and cautious, the reputation of 'Jiangnan No. 1 Village' is still there, and some people will inevitably be jealous and covetous. At least half of the masters in the village have followed the Xia Zhuang master south, if you want to bring down the Xia family, this is of course a great opportunity - the fact that you have protected the Xia Zhuang master on the way south is also only known in the inner garden, and the Suzaku and the prince will never reveal more details to others, although the bidder has good news about the rivers and lakes, but maybe there is no eyeliner in the forbidden city, but the new knowledge that the Black Bamboo Society has returned to the freedom of the rivers and lakes, so he hurriedly sent out an invitation for this business, after all- It has been five months since the owner of Xia Zhuang left, and if he waits any longer, he is afraid that he will miss the opportunity. ”

He paused slightly, and said, "Xiajiazhuang's status in the rivers and lakes today is mostly based on the mastery and chivalrous name of the owners of the previous dynasties, in fact, when it comes to the power of the court or the wealth of the family, there are a few other families in Lin'an City that are not behind the Xia family, but the reputation is worse, in addition to the 'first village', count the Sun family in the east of the city, the Wei family in the south of the city, and the four surnames of Xie, Ni, Fang, and Zheng...... No one is weaker than the other, and it is not unreasonable to say that anyone has a jealousy or hatred for the fame of this 'first'. ”

Jun Li's gaze fell on the silver ticket again. "The Sun family in the east of the city is the richest man in Lin'an, and this Zhong'an money village ...... I remember it was Sun Fukai, right?"

Shen Fengming said with a smile: "That's a good thing, but - use the silver ticket issued by his own bank to buy a murderer? ”

"I'm not saying it's him, it's just that I don't recognize other families, but I've heard Sun Fu's name. It is said that he is a businessman and does not know martial arts, and the Sun family has always been alienated from the martial arts of the rivers and lakes, and he is not the same as the Xia family, so he should not come to fight for the wind and be jealous. But after thinking about it again, if other families like to compete for the wind and be jealous, they will not send money to Sun Fukai's money bank. ”

"This ...... It's a little puzzling. Shen Fengming said, "Originally, people who don't want to leave their tracks shouldn't use silver tickets - once you have to go to the money bank to redeem it, it will be a big trouble for both the owner and the Black Bamboo Club - so the Black Bamboo Club doesn't like cash tickets." In this way, we are either deliberately trying to confuse the public, or we are really a thoughtful newbie. ”

Jun Li was silent for a while, then suddenly stood up and waved his hand: "Forget it, let's put this matter aside for now." ”

Shen Fengming was curious. "Why did you put it there all of a sudden?"

"The various forces in Lin'an City are involved with each other, it is too complicated, we can't guess and guess, it's better to wait and see, this person gave money but there was no movement, and he would always come forward to go back. Besides, in a few days, I will go to Yanguan to worship my master Fengyun Daochang, and after worshipping, I will be able to return my common family name and surname - by that time, these people will naturally know what my 'Xia Junli' position is, and they will always be a little jealous - if anyone dares to fight the Xia family's idea, don't blame Heizhu for being unkind. ”

Seeing Shen Fengming looking at him rather strangely, he couldn't help but mutter: "Of course I know that Heizhu will not deviate from the 'position' and rely on which family to rely on, but I--I also feel that I owe a lot to the Xia family, but I just want to try my best to protect the person I want to protect when I can have such strength." Anyway, the so-called neutrality in Heizhu's contract is only between Suzaku and Ling Daxia, and Xiajiazhuang is not among them. I didn't abuse the power of the black bamboo to do anything - I just made my name public, and borrowed a little bit of the fierce light of the black bamboo to warn those villains - in this way, although I will never return to the Xia family, at least I will always do my part for the Xia family. ”

"If you have already thought about doing this, then do it to your own will. Shen Fengming said, "But-you don't actually owe anything to the Xia family." If you have to count it, it is the Xia family who owes you a lot. ”

Jun Li didn't want to talk about this matter deeply, so he turned his eyes away and only said, "You and Jun Chao should still be able to talk, right?"

"Xiao Gongzi Xia? Shen Fengming said, "What?"

"I think—these days—in the past few days before I made my family name public—I'm still not very relieved, but at this time, it's a bit inappropriate to send someone to protect Xiajiazhuang with great fanfare, can you find a time to go and remind Jun Chao a few words, if it's inconvenient to say it explicitly, it's always okay to hint, and then secretly pay attention to the changes inside and outside the Zhuangzi. ”

"I'll find an excuse to go to Xiajiazhuang for another day or two, and ask the little boy a few more words. Shen Fengming said, "This is not difficult, don't worry." ”

"Give it back to him by the way. Jun Li took out a token, "When I left the city at night, it was Jun Chao who gave me this exit token for emergency, I always carried it with me, thinking that I should return it to him, but I-I really couldn't meet him." Tell him for me, I ...... Although I have only met once, I will always remember the friendship he gave that day for the rest of my life. ”

Shen Fengming took the token and sighed gloomily. "I don't know how this little boy Xia will feel when he learns your true life experience in a few days?"
