Excellent excuse
Seeing that this middle-aged man was so nervous, Chi Zhongtian knew that he was thinking too much, so he hurriedly said, "Don't be so nervous, I just want to ask you about something."
Seeing that Chi Zhongtian didn't look like that vicious person, the middle-aged man relaxed a little and asked casually, "What's the matter, you ask." ”
"I run a restaurant, you know, now these guests' mouths are getting more and more picky, they are tired of eating ordinary fish, I wondered, I want to catch a little deep-water fish to sell, you people are good at water, can you give me a favor?"
When Chi Zhongtian asked, the middle-aged man didn't react, but Chu Lu was the first to react.
came up with this kind of reason to ask, Chi Zhongtian is really smart.
At least that's what Chu Lu thinks in his heart, if he is not smart, how can his martial arts be so powerful at such a young age.
"Deep-water fish? That's not easy to catch. When the middle-aged man saw that Chi Zhongtian was inquiring about this, he completely relaxed, and beckoned them to sit down on the stone next to him.
"yes, I just know it's not easy to fish, that's why I'm here. Chi Zhongtian replied.
"Where is Childe from, listening to the accent, it's not like a local. The middle-aged man asked.
"I'm from the capital, and I opened a restaurant in Shunqing Mansion. Chi Zhongtian replied casually.
The middle-aged man glanced at Chi Zhongtian, and then asked, "Shunqing Mansion, that's so close to the Jialing River, why don't you go to the Jialing River to fish, it's much bigger than this Fuling River." ”
Chi Zhongtian was stunned for a moment, and then replied with a whim: "Look, I'm also afraid that others will know, you said, this restaurant to get some ingredients, isn't it just a fresh and rare thing, many people who open restaurants in Shunqing Mansion are fishing on the Jialing River, if they know that I am fishing for fish in deep water, they are not allowed to intervene." ”
Not to mention, Chi Zhongtian's reason is really well-made, at least this middle-aged man believes it.
"That's right, I said, this deep-water fish is really not easy to catch, and even if you catch it, it costs money, and it is a lot of money. ”
After the middle-aged man said this, Chi Zhongtian's eyes immediately lit up, and he thought that there was a door in his heart. patted his chest and said very arrogantly: "Money is trivial, don't look at my restaurant, but my dad is rich and opens a money village in the capital, you can rest assured, oh yes, this money, even if I ask my brother for the remuneration." As he spoke, Chi Zhongtian then threw over a silver ingot, which was not big, about five taels, but for these people, it was not a small amount, and the most important thing was that he didn't pay anything, so he got it almost for nothing.
"Oh, that's embarrassing!" the middle-aged man took the money in surprise, and stuffed the silver into his arms while being polite.
"This brother, if you have a way, you can just say it, our son has money, besides, what is money for, isn't it just to make good things and then make money. Chu Lu is also a smart person, and when he saw this scene, he hurriedly helped on the side.
"That's that, you're so right. ”
After finishing speaking, the middle-aged man suddenly straightened his face, and then looked around for a while, before he lowered his voice and said: "In the deep water, ordinary people can't go down, don't look at our water is good, but no one dares to go to the deep water, one is that the resistance is too great, but once you reach the deep water, you can't swim fast, in case of trouble, you can't get out." ”
"Then what can you do?" Chi Zhongtian saw that this person was vague, so he pretended to be confused and asked him.
"Ahem, I heard that there is a group of water ghosts in this Fuling River, they are doing this for a living, as long as they give money, let him go to the bottom of the river. The middle-aged man said mysteriously.
"Oh, water ghosts?" Chi Zhongtian asked as he suppressed the excitement in his heart.
"Yes, I heard that this water ghost has grown up in the water since he was a child, and he is happier in the water than on the ground. ”
This sentence seems to be a bit exaggerated by the middle-aged man, but Chi Zhongtian didn't feel strange at all when he heard it in his ears.
"So, do you know where they are?" Chi Zhongtian asked curiously.
"I don't know, but there is someone who does. The middle-aged man replied in a low voice.
"Oh, who is it? Chi Zhongtian hurriedly asked.
"Look, do you see that pile of people over there?" the middle-aged man turned and pointed towards a boat.
Looking in the direction he was pointing, it was a small boat, and a bunch of people were gathering on the board, not knowing what they were playing.
"See. Chi Zhongtian replied.
"That bunch of people playing dice, one of them is named Qian Lao Liu, who is the most powerful of our ferrymen, his boat is big, and he knows a lot of people, there is no one on the Fuling River that he doesn't know. The middle-aged man replied.
"Okay, then I don't know if this old brother can introduce us?" Chi Zhongtian asked pretending to be very urgent.
"This" middle-aged man suddenly had a little embarrassment on his face.
Chi Zhongtian knew what he was thinking at a glance, so he took out a silver ingot and handed it over and said, "This, brother accepts." ”
"No, no, you're mistaken. The middle-aged man hurriedly pushed the money over, and then said: "I don't mean that, I mean, this Qian Lao Liu is angry all day long, and he has always looked down on us people, I am afraid that not only will I not be able to do anything, but I will also have to be beaten." ”
"Otherwise, if you bring this to him, just say that a friend wants to meet him and ask about something, isn't it? Anyway, you just call him, and then you will be busy with you, and he will not trouble you." Chi Zhongtian said.
The middle-aged man thought for a while, then nodded as if he had made a lot of determination and said: "Okay, then I'll go for a trip, who asked you to help me win that old Li Tou just now, hey, don't say it, I let this old boy win a lot of games against me, I finally turned around today, you wait." ”
After speaking, the middle-aged man took the silver in Chi Zhongtian's hand and ran towards the boat.
I saw that after the middle-aged man ran over, he first nodded and said something, and then pointed towards Chi Zhongtian, anyway, after grinding for a while, he saw a person standing up slowly, walking forward, while constantly pointing at the ground, as if he was instructing something.
Money can be channeled, it seems to be real, no, the middle-aged man just now is taking him this way.
After walking in, the middle-aged man just now immediately said: "This is the sixth master of Qian, the sixth master, this is the son." ”
After listening to his title, Chi Zhongtian knew that he was very jealous of this Qian Lao Liu, so he said: "Okay, it's nothing for you, you can go busily." ”
