Chapter 38: Looking for

Chapter 38 Looking for At Liyun Building, a waiter with a numb expression and pitted face caught up with the madam Feng Chi on the stairs. The latter understood and took a few steps to the corner of the stairs, turned into the nearest corridor, pushed open the door of an empty room and went in. As soon as the door closed, the waiter took out a note and gave it to her. Feng Chi opened the note and exclaimed, "Just came out of the exile land? Shichun, oh, it turns out that it's not that Sichun..." He frowned and thought for a while, "This is really hard to confirm. You can't go in and out of the exile land at will to get information. Apart from the people in Bowang Tower, it is easier for the city guards of Shengyu to go in and out." He shook his head, "Forget it, I'll find a way to confirm this myself." So the guy left without saying a word... After leaving Bowang Tower, Shi Chun looked back at Wu Jinliang who had followed him out dejectedly, knowing that this guy was now immersed in the frustration of making his choice. It was precisely because this person would make such an unwise choice that he would tell the other party the secret of the purple nebula in his body, and teach the other party the secret method to break the immobilization talisman so as to avoid failure at the critical moment, although the premise was that Wu Jinliang already knew about the existence of the purple nebula. Right now, there are three old brothers around him from Dong Jiuyuan, but there are some secrets that he will not tell Lao Dong and Dashitou. Because he knew very well that faced with the choice just now, Lao Dong and Dashitou would definitely choose the right tree to roost in. He doesn't think there's anything wrong with their choice. If you can't give others better and don't allow them to make better choices, whose problem is that? Unless faced with a similar choice, the old brother Dong Jiuyuan is generally more reliable than outsiders, such as now. Lao Dong still walked quickly towards Shi Chun, pulled Shi Chun's sleeve, and solemnly reminded him: "It would be great if we could earn Bian Weikang's 50,000 gold or doubled 100,000 gold, but what Miss Miao said is also true, no one in Zhaotian City dares to snatch Lu Taizhen's woman, even the city lord would not do such a thing.

The news of this has most likely reached Lu Taizhen. Now it is inconvenient for the two of you to wander around. You may be in danger at any time. This place is different from Zhixu City. Although there are rules, it is not easy to suppress powerful people. They really dare to act secretly in the city." Shi Chun was surprised when he heard this, "Who said I want to make money from Bian Weikang? He is so poor that he has to rely on women for support. There is no money for me to make." Lao Dong and Da Shitou were both stunned, but Wu Jinliang, who was looking dejected, actually laughed out loud because of this. Shi Chun added: "Don't worry, Lu Taizhen doesn't dare to touch me now." These words made the two Bowang Tower guys sigh. Da Shitou sighed, "Boss, let me tell you something you don't want to hear. You are nothing in their eyes. How dare they touch you!" "At least for now." Shi Chun stretched out his finger and scratched the word 'Bo' embroidered in silver thread on his collar. "Just because two people from Bowang Tower followed me. If Lu Taizhen's people really targeted me now, they should know that I have been to the upper floor of Bowang Tower. Without knowing my background, they dare not act rashly. People with power are indeed bolder than us, but sometimes... they are more cowardly than us." The reason why he temporarily put aside the important matters on Bian Weikang's side and went to Bowang Tower to visit Miao Yilan first was, on the one hand, to be polite and grateful, but also to deliberately create the aspect he said for others to see. He didn't expect to meet Miao Yilan and Lao Dong here. Now that he had met them, he would rather use the convenience and save a lot of trouble. This man is unfamiliar with the place and is very weak. It is not easy to snatch food from a tiger's mouth. Besides being brave, he also needs to be careful. "Alas." Lao Dong couldn't help but sigh again, "Boss, what you said makes sense, but it can only fool people temporarily..." "It's enough to fool them for a while." Shi Chun waved his hand and directly changed the subject. He looked at the people coming and going around him, then waved and led the three people to a secluded place by the lake and began to settle accounts. "Lao Dong, Da Shitou, how do you settle the account of the 40,000 taels from before?" Speaking of this, the two Bowanglou guys suddenly felt embarrassed. Even Lao Dong could only hum and groan: "It was lent to you by Miss Miao. You all know it. There's no point in saying more. Let's go. I'll treat you to a good meal." Shi Chun blocked his arm and said, "Don't worry about eating. After all, we are brothers. After the matter is done, I can't give you 40,000 yuan. How about giving each of you 10,000 yuan?" The two embarrassed guys' eyes lit up immediately, and then they smiled. The old boss said, "Okay, let's talk about it when you make money." Seeing that the two guys were not motivated enough, how could they do that? They still needed two people to do the work. Shi Chun tilted his head towards Wu Jinliang, "Jinliang, these two guys have been away from Dongjiuyuan for a long time. They drank a few more mouthfuls of mountain spring water outside, and even looked down on the two of us. Here, let them open their eyes and tell them how we plan to make this money." "Hehe, fine, I'll open your eyes. Listen carefully, the top girl in Liyun Tower will be sold whether Liyun Tower sells her or us..." The two thieves Wu Jin smiled and told the story of how they were going to sell Xiang Lan'er to Lu Taizhen at a low price. "hiss…" After hearing this, the two guys suddenly realized what was going on and took a deep breath. They were really shocked. They stared at each other, and finally spit out a number to Shi Chunqi, "Two hundred thousand gold?" Shi Chun's clothes looked dusty, and he kept brushing them off, trying to be modest, "There's nothing I can do. I'm new here and not familiar with the situation outside. I'll just try my hand with a few hundred thousand. I'll just make do with it for now." "Hehe..." Wu Jinliang liked his shameless spirit, it gave him something to look forward to.

"..." The two guys were speechless for a long time, counting the money in their heads, with various expressions changing, some of which were filled with regret. The goal was achieved, Shi Chun no longer beat around the bush, and directly presented his usual boss style, "I need you to do two things. Wuyou Pavilion will find a place for us to stay. You pay for it, and whatever you spend will be counted as your investment. I keep my word, and if we make a profit in the future, I will return double the amount of your spending." "it is good." "no problem." Lao Dong and Da Shitou nodded repeatedly in agreement, with big smiles on their faces. After laughing to his satisfaction, Lao Dong asked again: "Isn't it too cheap to sell something worth 500,000 for 200,000? I think we can give it a try at 300,000 or 400,000. We can make more money, everyone, wouldn't it be..." He looked around at everyone and also started to chuckle. The meaning is obvious. If you, the boss, don't like it, we don't mind giving you a bigger share. This statement immediately drew unanimous agreement from Wu Jinliang and Dashitou, who all nodded and applauded. Shi Chun waved his hand and rejected it without hesitation. "This is not Dongjiuyuan. We are nothing. We are too weak. Our appetite and teeth are not good. We can't handle too much. If we eat too much, we may die of fullness. Only what we can eat comfortably can be considered as what really goes into our stomach. Two hundred thousand is the limit for us. One more grain of sandalwood gold is not enough. The second thing is, although this deal is with Lu Taizhen, I don’t want to talk to Lu Taizhen. I need you to help me find a suitable person from his side to talk to me.” Several people were puzzled, Wu Jinliang asked suspiciously: "Why?" Shi Chun: "Why? It's obvious. Lady Lu is such a big shot in Zhaotian City. How could she possibly be interested in me? Even if I offer her something for her, it's useless. I'm afraid that someone who can spend 500,000 gold to buy a beauty to play with may not be interested in the little bit of money I save. If it were you, if someone suddenly came to your house to offer you something for no reason, would you be suspicious? Would you dare to accept it rashly?" "That's true..." Wu Jinliang touched his chin and muttered. For his own benefit, Lao Dong also became concerned and asked, "What kind of person do you want to find?" Shi Chun: "People who are close to Lu Taizhen and can help me sell Xiang Lan'er to Lu Taizhen can be bribed with money. Don't tell them that you have been here for so long and have never heard of the big shots in Zhaotian City." Da Shitou, who looked thoughtful, suddenly said, "Cao Puqing's nephew Cen Futong should be able to do it." "Cen Futong..." Lao Dong thought for a moment and nodded slightly. Shi Chunli asked: "Who is it?" Lao Dong immediately explained, "Cao Puqing is Lu Taizhen's steward. Cen Futong is his nephew. Thanks to his uncle, he lives a comfortable life in this city. However, he is a bit idle and not doing his job properly. He should not be averse to money." "Another nephew..." Wu Jinliang muttered. Shi Chun smiled, "Okay, let's choose him. Tell him that someone is willing to give him 100,000 gold just to make friends with him. Don't tell him who sent the money, just tell him to come to Wuyou Pavilion to find me. You don't have to show up directly. After all, you are from Bowang Tower. It's not good for you to directly participate in such things. Spend some money to find someone to run errands, and you can just keep an eye on it in secret. In case of any changes, it will not affect you." "Okay, then I'll go now?" Lao Dong asked for some opinions, and seeing that there was no problem, he went to do it immediately. Of course he had to make money if there was any. Shi Chun and others headed towards Wuyou Pavilion. Che Si, who had changed his clothes and was watching secretly, was a little puzzled when he saw the group split into two groups. He wanted to see where Lao Dong was, but he finally chose Shi Chun as the main target. (End of this chapter)
