Chapter 773: seer
The scholar was very conflicted. On the one hand, he came here because bandits threatened his mother's life, so he had no choice but to do so. On the other hand, he knows the true identity of the bandits, and the things in his hands are stained with the blood of many people, so he doesn't want the couple on the other side to buy them.
.
"If you don't have one hundred and eighty thousand taels of silver, don't mention it."
The scholar thought that the Bandit asked him to test the opponent's strength. He pretended to embarrass the opponent, and then went back to tell the Bandits that the person who wanted to buy had no cash, so the Bandits would not embarrass him.
In this way, no business can be done on both sides, and the things of the bandits cannot be sold.
It's just that this group of people has to be neighbors with him all the time. When the scholar thought about it, he felt very distressed. Who knows when that group of people went wrong, and they took a machete and chopped off his head like a vegetable melon.
He even thought about going to the Yamen to report to the officials, but he didn't have the courage.
The scholar is not stupid, when he came with the assistant from Deyilou, there must be someone following her, it just depends on whether he is honest or not.
Oh, what a word!
The scholar scratched his hair, very irritable.
One hundred and eighty thousand taels of silver? Li Haitang and Xiao Lingchuan looked at each other, and they immediately understood each other's meaning.
She does have the banknotes, but part of them are tasseled silver coins, which she agreed to donate to open a charity hall and adopt some homeless children.
"Is that too much?"
As a middleman, Xiao Zhuzi was taken aback by the scholar's unreasonable play of cards. He didn't explore the real identity of the scholar's so-called cousin. In this line of work, don't talk too much. Curiosity killed the cat.
They are proud that there are rules, guys can't be middlemen in private, there is also a reason for this, and there is a lot of risk in it.
When Xiaozhuzi first came, there was a guy who was older than him, who had worked in Deyilou for several years, and finally disappeared suddenly. When he was found, his body was lying in the wilderness, and the yamen couldn't find the murderer.
The shopkeeper said that the man was thinking hard and contacted the customers in private, but he met Jiang Yang's robbers. During the transaction, he robbed the buyer's money and killed the buyer and the middleman, doing a business without money.
This line of water is deep, and people's hearts are even more unpredictable.
"not much."
The scholar calmed down a little, feeling annoyed at his rash behavior. He decided to follow what the bandits said. Anyway, he himself was worthy of his conscience, and he had already secretly mentioned those two people. It depends on whether the other party is smart or not.
"it is good."
Li Haitang readily agreed, and pretended to go to the toilet, but he went to the backyard, borrowed the pen, ink, paper and inkstone from the teahouse, and wrote a letter, and then found a vegetable seller at the back door, and gave the letter to the aunt, and asked someone to deliver the letter to Wufu.
The reason why she chose Auntie was because she thought it would be convenient for that person to deliver food as a cover.
The aunt was very happy to have money to take. Anyway, it was only a few steps away, and she also said that she would send all the beans and eggplants in the basket.
After a while, Li Haitang returned to the teahouse and nodded to his savage husband.
The teahouse was checking capital, and after packing up their luggage, waiting for the five blessings from the host and his wife, he suddenly received a letter from the vegetable seller.
Madam didn't say what she was doing when she went out, she and Nanny Yu were waiting for someone at the inn, and they brought small bean buns along the way.
"Nurse Yu, Madam sent a letter."
Wu Fu raised the letter paper in his hand, and opened it in front of Nanny Yu. After seeing it, the two of them immediately changed their expressions.
"Nurse Yu, what should we do, the master's family and his wife are going to enter the den of thieves, in case something goes wrong..."
Wufu was frightened, and his wife wrote in a letter saying that they were talking in the teahouse, and they might be taken directly to the trading place after a while.
Because the other party is a bandit, I want her to contact the yamen and ask the magistrate to send someone there.
"I'm going to the yamen, Wufu, you are watching near the teahouse, and Bai Guo is watching the young master Doubao."
Mammy Yu wiped the water from her hands and assigned tasks one by one. She wanted Wu Fu to go to the Yamen, but she was afraid that the girl would be confused, so she had to go by herself.
On Li Haitang's side, the experience has been successful. The scholar conveyed the meaning of the bandits. The trading place is ten miles outside Luocheng, and they must go directly there.
"Okay, let's go now."
Li Haitang looked relaxed and lamented that he did the right thing.
We don't know how many bandits there are. If the other party wants to rob money but is unwilling to give the goods, the two will suffer.
A savage husband can eat black and white, but he has to take certain risks, and the husband and wife are the source of good luck, not for money.
Ten miles outside Luocheng, the bandits are in the dark, and the couple are in the light, which is a disadvantage.
The scholar took a deep breath. When he was going downstairs, he met a bandit who came to watch him. The man passed him directly, let Li Haitang and his wife get into the carriage, and went straight out of the city.
Wu Fu hid in the dark and watched quietly. Just now the wife deliberately revealed the address, and she had to go back to deliver the letter.
The carriage was crude, incomparable to his own, and there was no vibration dampening facility inside the carriage, and there was an indelible **** smell, even with the windows open, Li Haitang couldn't stand it, almost nauseating.
She was originally sitting opposite Xiao Lingchuan, but she forced her way to his side and buried her face in his chest.
Well, the fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus still lingers on the body of my savage husband. Although the smell is much weaker, it makes her feel relaxed.
But Xiao Lingchuan thought in his heart, it turns out that the sweet-scented osmanthus dew is not useless at all.
At the end of the day, the sun was scorching hot, and the leaves of the weeping willows on the roadside curled up and curled up listlessly. Pedestrians on the street raised their sleeves to wipe the sweat from their foreheads after walking a few steps.
There were teapots and tea bowls in the car, but Li Haitang couldn't stand the things used by the bandits. Her mouth was dry, so she had to ask the driver in front to stop.
"Brother, can you find a tea shed by the side of the road?"
Li Haitang endured and endured, and decided to make some demands.
The driver is one of the bandits, he is easy to talk on the surface, but his eyes are gloomy, and he looks like a ruthless person.
The brothers really wanted to do business, and when they took the things away, they were exposed first. Their goal was simple, money.
As for this couple, it is impossible to keep them.
Since he is a dead ghost, it seems to be nothing if he meets some small requirements. Even people who are about to go to the execution ground will be given some delicious food and a bowl of water and wine before they die.
"We're in a hurry, why don't we wait until the tea shed, and I'll buy two bowls of tea for you two."
The bandits driving the carriage were very cautious, afraid that they would notice something strange, so they didn't want the two of them to get out of the carriage.
Regarding this, Li Haitang nodded in agreement, and at the same time felt grateful, thanks to her thinking earlier, it must not be that simple, so she went to the vegetable seller to deliver the letter. Nanny Yu is someone who has seen the world, Bai Guo is calm, and Wu Fu is also capable, and the three of them will definitely do what she told her to do well, and she is not worried at all.
