Chapter 64: Shameless Black Shop
After these people left, Qiu Xin sat in the room and thought for a long time, if it was really according to what the girl said, this matter was really a lot of money, and no matter if he could go to Mount Tai with the dart head of the Double Nine Dart Bureau, there would be a lot less trouble, and in this place of Kuizhou, with the protection of the four families, he could rest assured that Lu Yun's father and daughter.
What's more, if you go to Mount Tai, with the cover of the Double Nine Dart Bureau, you can also go directly to the back mountain of the Hanging Cliff Peak with the identity of the dart, without worshipping Mount Tai, and when the trip is over, you can also follow the dart team directly back to Kuizhou.
But today in the inn when he asked if there was a dart to Mount Tai recently, the performance of everyone made it difficult for Qiu Xin to make up his mind for a while, this dart, I'm afraid it's not as simple as I thought, how is this good.
After thinking about it for a long time and not coming up with any clue, Qiu Xin stood up, pushed open the door, and walked out of the inn, preparing to go to the city to relax, and by the way, inquire about the Phantom Moon Sect and the Double Nine Dart Bureau.
At this time, just after noon, the sun was scorching, a little dazzling, there were more pedestrians on the street, and occasionally there were disciples of the Phantom Moon Sect standing side by side, dressed in plain clothes, walking in it with a sword, very outstanding.
However, Qiu Xin didn't pay attention to this, but walked straight to the Yongle pawnshop, Qiu Xin heard what the shopkeeper said to the disciples of the Phantom Moon Sect yesterday, which made him realize that this Yongle pawnshop didn't seem to be so simple just a pawnshop, but the source of information from the Phantom Moon Sect in this city.
Not long after, Qiu Xin was already standing in front of the Yongle pawnshop, and the vision made him feel even more incredible, yesterday he was just anxious to take off his clothes, and did not pay attention to the outside of the store, at this time, it seems that it was built very tall and elegant, and next to the pawnshop, next to it is the double nine dart game.
Although he was a little surprised to see the Double Nine Dart Bureau, Qiu Xin didn't think it was so strange, because this place is the center of the whole city, the most prosperous, and the Double Nine Dart Game as a major force should occupy this prime location, but this pawnshop is located here, which seems a little strange.
Although the Yongle pawnshop occupies the most crowded place in the city, the business is bleak, and when Qiu Xin stands in front of the door, almost no one enters, which is incompatible with the surrounding shops, and people can't help but wonder who will do the thankless thing.
Qiu Xin frowned and walked into the Yongle pawnshop, which was still quite quaint in terms of layout, but yesterday's shopkeeper was standing behind the counter, yawning, looking drowsy.
Hearing someone coming in, the shopkeeper turned his head to see that a spirit, immediately stood up straight, and said, "Uncle, let me go, can't you return that dress to you?" Seeing that the person who came was Qiu Xin, the shopkeeper remembered the scene at the entrance of the alley yesterday, and those aunts and grandmothers of the Phantom Moon Sect were very polite to Qiu Xin, and it was okay to teach themselves a lesson, so they secretly complained in their hearts.
What happened to Qiu Xin was puzzling, but the shopkeeper, who was supposed to be taken away to work as a coolie for a month, was now standing in front of him, which made him feel the mystery of this shop even more, so he said, "I ask you, why were you released?"
The shopkeeper smiled when he heard this, and said, "Naturally, the fairy of the Phantom Moon Sect looks pitiful to the small, with a high hall and a wife below, so let the small one come out, not as ruthless as you, uncle." ”
This shopkeeper is full of nonsense, where will Qiu Xin believe him, so his face turned cold, and he said, "If you don't tell the truth, break your dog's legs, don't think that only the Phantom Moon Sect in the city can cure you." With that, he approached the counter again.
The shopkeeper turned his eyes and suddenly shouted loudly, "The shopkeeper, the shopkeeper, beat people, beat people, beat people." His words were miserable, his voice was fierce, and he sounded as if he had suffered a great injustice, which made Qiu Xin helpless again, so he stopped and looked at the shopkeeper playfully.
A slight "click, click" sound came, each sound was extremely long, and after a while, Qiu Xin saw people coming down, but it was an old man, with white hair, followed by a young man, his body was erect, and he looked at Qiu Xin with some pride, and then the old man slowly spoke.
"I said Sun Fan, if others bully you, you should be bullied, and you have to call me an old man to accompany you to suffer, I have already settled you, don't be too greedy. As he spoke, he slowly turned to look at Qiu Xin, his movements were extremely slow, which made Qiu Xin want to step forward to help him.
And the crutches in his hand seemed to have been worn for a long time, and they were sharpened very smooth, and then the old man slowly spoke, "This guest officer, the old man is the shopkeeper of this pawnshop, you can call me Qiu Yu, I don't know why the guest officer wants to beat him." ”
The words of the talented old man to Sun Fan made Qiu Xin feel that this person was quite reasonable, but this sentence directly shocked Qiu Xin, what kind of shopkeeper is there, what kind of clerk there is, so he coughed lightly and said, "Shopkeeper Qiu, it's not that he's beating him, it's just that he deceived me repeatedly, so he came to ask for justice." ”
Qiu Xin originally wanted to come to inquire about the news, but now he was teased by the shopkeeper in this store, and he was slightly unhappy, but at this time, Sun Fan smiled strangely, and knocked on the counter with his hand, as if he had a great dependence, and he didn't take Qiu Xin in his eyes at all.
At this time, Qiu Yu said again, "Guest officer, how Sun Fan deceived you, as long as it is true, the old man will not spare him." As he spoke, he glared at Sun Fan again, but Sun Fan had a bigger smile on his face, if it weren't for this shop, Qiu Xin couldn't help but give him two slaps, so he said.
"I was a piece of clothing in the store yesterday, and the second child in your store only gave me 200 yuan, what is it if it is not cheating?" At this time, the old man may have been tired of standing, motioned to the person behind him to help him sit down, coughed twice, and said sharply, "Sun Fan, is there such a thing?"
"Nope. ”
Qiu Xin really didn't expect that the shopkeeper would talk such nonsense, and then said, "Why are you such a scoundrel, you just reverse black and white." Sun Fan stopped and said, "Since you say that you are reversing black and white, what evidence can you have to prove that you have indeed worn clothes?" ”
Calculation, everything is calculation, I was afraid of trouble at the time, and I didn't think that I would put pressure on it again in the future, I didn't fill out the deed, I didn't think that I was asked dumbfounded today, I really didn't have any evidence to prove that I had been a dress here, and when I thought of this, Qiu Xin's face was completely gloomy.
At this time, I heard Qiu Yu say, "Since the guest officer doesn't have any credentials, then there is no blame for being old and rude, and I'm afraid the money won't be refunded to you." "A black shop, it's definitely a black shop, no matter who built the pawnshop, just doing this business, it will definitely not make money.
A little annoyed by what these two said, Qiu Xin continued, "Your Excellency's clever means, I admire you, I put it aside in advance, I came today to inquire about some things in the city." ”
"Oh?" As soon as these words came out, Sun Fan and Qiu Yu put away their calm expressions and glanced at each other, Qiu Yu's eyes were full of doubts.
And Sun Fan was shocked when he heard this, and the secret way was not good, yesterday at the entrance of the alley, Sun Fan was anxious for a while, and said to the disciples of the Phantom Moon Sect led by him to inquire about the information, which made Qiu Xin find here, thinking of this, he walked quickly to the front of the store, closed the door, his tone was a little cold, no longer a scoundrel, and said, "Our pawnshop will only pawn, where does this inquiry start?"
It seems that this shop must not be simple, Qiu Xin also found a place to sit down, and said, "If there is no ghost in my heart, what do you do when you close the store door in broad daylight?"
"You ........." The shopkeeper was originally clever and eloquent, but he was also a little embarrassed by Qiu Xin's question, seeing this, Qiu Xin showed his white teeth, smiled slightly, and said in his heart, he finally pulled back a game, and then said, "I just asked about some irrelevant things, don't be embarrassed." ”
didn't look at Sun Fan again, but at Qiu Yu, at this time, Qiu Yu turned the smooth cane in his hand on the ground, closed his eyes, and didn't mean to answer, Sun Fan saw this, and knelt down in front of Qiu Yu, and said, "Old Qiu atoned for my sins, I just ...... for a while."
"Alright, get up. Then he said to Qiu Xin, "What do you want to ask?"
"I just want to ask about the Double Nine Dart Game. ”
Glancing at Qiu Xin with some surprise, Qiu Yu continued, "The Double Nine Dart Game, everyone in the world knows it, I don't know why Your Excellency has such a question?"
"Will you invite outsiders to play darts?"
"No, unless it is a vassal of the four major families in the city, except for the dart head in the game, no outsiders will come into contact with the dart goods, so the reputation of the double nine dart game is excellent, and it is almost foolproof. He coughed a few more times, and it seemed that he was not in good health.
This is, the young man who had been standing beside him stepped forward to block in front of Qiu Yu and said, "Guest officer, my father is not feeling well, and he has finished answering Your Excellency's question, please go back." Saying that, he made a gesture of inviting with one hand, and then turned around to help Qiu Yu, and the two walked slowly to the stairs.
Qiu's heart was anxious, his voice was a little higher, and he asked, "Shopkeeper, what is the relationship between the Phantom Moon Sect and the Double Nine Dart Game?"
Qiu Yu stopped and turned to look at Qiu Xin, and said slowly, "The Phantom Moon Sect governs this place, and the Double Nine Dart Bureau is just a force here. After saying that, he didn't look back, and went upstairs.
I thought I could ask some key and important information, but the old man replied, it was all innocuous words, and Qiu Yu looked old and weak, which made Qiu Xin not easy to ask, so he could only shake his head, stand up, and look at Sun Fan.
Sun Fan felt Qiu Xin's gaze, laughed embarrassedly, and said, "Don't ask me, guest officer, I'm just a miscellaneous subordinate and don't know anything." ”
Since even Qiu Yu didn't want to say anything, naturally he couldn't ask anything, Qiu Xin sighed, "That's it, but you are a good shopkeeper." ”
Completely forgot what he said at the beginning that he wanted to return the money, and now with the support of the shopkeeper, Sun Fan was obviously bold and said, "General, average." ”
In front of him, Qiu Xin had already pushed the door out and left the pawnshop.
