Chapter 280: Transaction

It is unusual for Xiao Fengchai to have a man in his house, and it is a little unusual for this man to care about the whereabouts of the Dragon King.

Gu Shenwei eavesdropped quietly.

"Second brother, although rest assured, as long as the Dragon King is still in Nancheng, my people will definitely be able to find him, maybe he will come to the door by himself. Xiao Fengchai's voice said.

"Don't be careless, I just heard that the Dragon King was surrounded, but it scared me, if he dies, it will ruin our big things. The man said.

"I don't think the dragon king can die so easily, and I've never seen someone as suspicious and cautious as him. ”

"Well, it's better to do that. I have to go. ”

"There are a lot of people outside, aren't you afraid of being recognized?"

"More people is the best cover. ”

Gu Shenwei dodged and hid behind a desk, only a small oil lamp was lit in the living room, and he stood against the wall in a black cloak, his whole body in shadow.

Another man in a cloak walked out, Xiao Fengchai sent him to the staircase, watched him go downstairs, turned back to the room, and didn't notice that there was another person in the living room.

After a while, Yahuan came up and said that two or three swordsmen had come below, and they were all sent away, Xiao Fengchai hummed twice and did not speak.

Yahuan left, and only Gu Shenwei was left alone in the living room.

"Is the Dragon King going to come in, or do you want me to go out?" Xiao Fengchai said softly, very clear in the silent room.

Gu Shenwei walked into the bedroom, and this time there was no knife hiding behind the door.

"I hope the Dragon King didn't wait long. ”

"It's fine. ”

Seeing the dragon king's vigilant face, Xiao Fengchai smiled slightly, "The dragon king doesn't have to be careful, the girl next door is my person, she told Yahuan that a strange guest just came, I guess it's you." ”

Gu Shenwei didn't hear Yahuan say this, there must be another way of communication between the master and servant, "I'll talk about a deal." ”

"I don't seem to see Lu Qiying's head. Xiao Fengchai said lightly that she had a proposal: the Dragon King killed the shopkeeper of the South Wall Tavern, and she provided a safe hiding place.

"Another deal. Gu Shenwei rejected Xiao Fengchai's proposal, and he would not change his mind because he had no way out for the time being.

Xiao Fengchai put one arm on the table, her body was straight, and her expression was solemn, like a noble lady of a big family, she already knew how to deal with the Dragon King: no complicated skills are required, it is best to go straight, this is a man with big ambitions, and he will not be tempted by women easily.

"Did the Dragon King hear me talking to my second brother?"

Gu Shenwei nodded, he only heard a few words, but he didn't intend to admit it.

"Well, is the Dragon King interested in this deal?"

"I want to hear the details. ”

A shallow smile flashed across Xiao Fengchai's face, "The Dragon King is coaxing me to speak?" ”

"Shopkeeper Lu shouldn't die, and he doesn't need to die. "Gu Shenwei didn't come here to eavesdrop on the conversation, he did have a deal in his heart, "The wealth of Daxue Mountain is wide enough to accommodate two people." ”

"The Dragon King wants to pull me in?"

"No, this is not a move-in, it's just a transaction, you want to make money, I hope to avoid the Meng clan and let the money flow smoothly, that's all. ”

Xiao Fengchai lowered his head and pondered for a while, "Trading with the Dragon King is risky. ”

"Profits are worth the risks, two out of ten. ”

"Then the risk is worth it. Xiao Fengchai said with a smile, "But I have a big appetite, and I don't do business less than one million taels." ”

"As long as you can swallow it, you can have as much as you want. Gu Shenwei calmly told a lie, he estimated that the silver in Xu Xiaoyi's hand added up to only more than one million taels, and in order to arm the swordsmen of the Great Snow Mountain, he had already spent a lot, which was not enough to divide the money equally between Shopkeeper Lu and Xiao Fengchai.

"That's great, for the sake of money, I can only offend Jinpeng Castle. The Dragon King can stay with me, and I can vouch for your safety. ”

As soon as the words fell, a hurried voice from Yahuan outside said, "Madam, there is another group of swordsmen, you have to come up." ”

"Got it, let them wait a while. ”

"Yes. ”

Xiao Fengchai got up and lifted a tapestry on the wall, revealing a small door half a person high, "I hope the Dragon King won't be too cramped." ”

Inside the small door was a narrow staircase, just sandwiched between the walls, and as he walked down, Gu Shenwei came to a small room with a bed and a table, and an oil lamp, and according to the height of the stairs, he guessed that he was underground at this time.

A quarter of an hour later, the small door above opened again, and Xiao Fengchai walked down, carrying bandages, gold creation medicine and other things, "The swordsman has already left, just to ask for silver, few people really want to catch the Dragon King, they are all taking the opportunity to blackmail money, and if they don't give it, they will make trouble." ”

"Where's the master you raised?"

"Masters have the use of masters, and it is most convenient to use money to pass the night. Take off your clothes. ”

The last sentence had the meaning of an order, Gu Shenwei hesitated for a moment, unbuttoned his cloak, took off his shirt, his wound was only hastily bandaged, and then blood oozed again.

The vast majority of people, including men, would gasp when they saw the criss-crossing scars on the Dragon King's body, but Xiao Fengchai remained silent, perhaps because she covered it up well, her hands were also very stable, wiped off the bloodstains, poured medicinal powder, and carefully bandaged the three wounds.

"To be honest, I was a little surprised that the Dragon King believed me so quickly. Xiao Fengchai put down the things in his hand and sat opposite Gu Shenwei.

"I don't trust anyone, I just think it's worth it. ”

"Well, the Dragon King's trade is very appealing to me, but since the Dragon King heard me talking to the second brother, he should know that we also have a deal. ”

"What does Second Prince Meng plan to let Daxue Mountain do for him?" Gu Shenwei had already thought of who that man was, Meng Mingshu, the second son of the Meng clan in Beicheng, he had seen this person from afar a few years ago, and he had a vague impression, Xiao Fengchai called him "Second Brother", so that he finally grasped that trace of erratic memory.

"The Meng clan has business in all countries in the Western Regions, but sooner or later these businesses will fall into Meng Mingkuan's hands. ”

Meng Mingkuan is the eldest son of the Meng family, the designated heir of the Meng family, and in the Western Regions, no one knows this name.

"Second Prince Meng must not be very happy. ”

"Who's to say it's not, a brother of a fellow mother, born first with everything, two years later empty-handed. ”

"The second son wants to be the boss?"

"He's not that ruthless. There was a hint of stupidity in Xiao Fengchai's voice, "He only wants the point he deserves." Shule is one of the most important sources of commerce for the Meng family, and there are five money houses there, and I hope ...... The two of us hope that the dragon king will make these money houses unable to open until the second brother goes to the rescue. ”

The Meng clan is in charge of more than half of the money transactions in the Western Regions, and offending the Meng clan means that in the future, they can only spend a high price to secretly transfer gold and silver, except for the Dragon King, there is indeed no second person who dares to do this kind of thing.

"What do I get?"

"It's also two out of ten, two percent of Meng's total wealth in Shule Country, that's a lot of wealth, and there are discounts for doing business with me, only one percent. Xiao Fengchai showed a plausible smile on her face, which added warmth to the cold figures.

"I'll think about it. "Gu Shenwei just wanted to find a temporary hiding place, and he didn't plan to participate in the conspiracy and infighting of the Meng family so soon.

"I'm not in a hurry, please rest the Dragon King, I'll take care of things outside. Xiao Fengchai walked to the stairs and stopped, "I'll sleep on it, the Dragon King has any needs, just call me at any time." ”

If this was a hint, Xiao Fengchai's expression was too serious, Gu Shenwei nodded and did not speak.

Early the next morning, Gu Shenwei went upstairs and jumped out of the window to leave, Xiao Fengchai was sleeping soundly, and heard a vague voice say something.

After nearly twenty days of tossing and turning in Biyu City, Gu Shenwei felt that it was time to negotiate peace, of course he couldn't just jump out and speak out publicly, and it had to be proposed by a force that had influence in the entire Western Regions.

Gu Shenwei spent the whole day wandering around, showing his true face, listening to the residents chatting, eating casually, and staying until dark before climbing over the boundary wall and entering the northern city.

There is a not very big temple in the north city, with only one main hall and four or five side rooms, except for the temple owner, there are only two monks to borrow.

What Gu Shenwei is looking for is them.

The Four Noble Truths have a special status in Biyu City and throughout the Western Regions, and the agreements signed there are inviolable and sacred, and it is only fitting that Gen Rinpoche, as a "holy monk", should propose peace with him.

Gu Shenwei walked around the temple and found no sign of an ambush, so he crossed the wall and entered.

The monk mixed with the charlatan, which made Gu Shenwei very incomprehensible, he thought about it for a long time, and always felt that there must be a hidden secret, this time he had to ask clearly.

He quietly turned around in the courtyard again, the temple owner slept soundly, snoring like thunder, but there was no sound in the opposite wing, he had come once a few days ago, and knew that Lianhua and Lianye lived here, and he did not show up at that time.

Gu Shenwei was just about to knock on the door, but suddenly felt that something was wrong, took two steps back, and held the Wufeng knife, the room was too quiet, even if it was a "holy monk", he should make a noise.

Without warning, the door cracked to pieces, and a suffocating wind swept in.

Gu Shenwei did not retreat but advanced, waved the narrow knife, the knife was like lightning, and there seemed to be a silver ball in his hand, knocking all the splashed pieces of wood away, and the monk who broke out of the door instantly exchanged two moves.

The killer retreated to the opposite side of the courtyard in two steps, and the monk stood in place, swaying from side to side like a drunk, both sides held in the air, ready to pounce, the wide monk's robe unfurled, and in the moonlight, like a huge gray bat.

"What's going on?" asked Gu Shenwei in a surprised voice behind him.

The sleeping temple owner was awakened by the sound of a broken door and went out to check.

Gu Shenwei turned around and slapped it on the neck of the temple master, and the fat monk fell softly.

The monk on the opposite side heard the sound and roared, and the tiger pounced and destroyed half of the pillars with one palm.

Gu Shenwei hid from afar again, this monk who behaved strangely was clearly a reckless monk lotus leaf, he had no scars on his body, but his expression was both sad and panicked, his eyes were invisible, he tilted his head to listen, and he was obviously blind.

The monk relied on listening to the wind to identify the position to find the enemy, and Gu Shen held his breath and remained motionless.

"Dragon King, I know it's you. Lianye's tone seemed to harbor deep hatred, "It's not enough to kill Senior Brother, do you still want to destroy the corpse?"

Gu Shenwei turned his head and glanced at both sides, there was a flag on the south wall, although he couldn't see the shape and color clearly, he knew that it must be the black blood flag of the Snow Mountain Dragon King.
