Suo Wenchang said unhappily from the side: "Hey, old man, we haven't said what we are asking for yet, why are you so eager to reject us?"

The old beggar smiled slightly and said: "There are rules in the industry. Although I am a beggar, I am not a disciple of the Beggar Clan. Let me tell you something that shouldn't be said. There is an extremely powerful Jianghu organization behind me, which is responsible for intelligence work in various places. Don't say it. There are three of you, and we all know about the emperor's patrols and the visits of senior officials. So I'm not afraid that you will kill me to protect yourself. Anyway, sooner or later, someone new will come to take my place. The one who needs to be dealt with is definitely the three of you. I’m not being alarmist, by then, with the skills of you three-legged cats, you will only be at the mercy of others!"

Seeing that he spoke so confidently, I was a little curious and said, "If you put it that way, what the senior told us should be confidential matters, right? You just told us everything, aren't you afraid of the trouble of being recalled?"

The old beggar shook his head and said: "I have dedicated to the organization for decades. From a young boy of 16 to now, I have worked hard without any credit. The leader is kind and will never do it because of what I said. My words will kill me. The reason why I tell you all this is because you guys have a pure heart and are all potential talents, so I want to give you a warning. In short, there are people coming here during this time. I inquired about your affairs, but I didn’t know much at the time, so I told them about your stay at Yuelai Restaurant. But will anyone ask in the future? How much can I tell you... I can’t tell you this. I promise, and I hope you can understand that our reputation is very important in this industry, so..."

I raised my hand to interrupt him and said with a smile: "Senior, don't worry, if the other party can get our information from you, then we can naturally get their information from you! Everyone is transparent, and we don't count either." Are you at a disadvantage?"

The old beggar looked at me deeply, and then smiled and said: "You brat, your mentality is quite good. That's all, I'll give you a warning. In our line of work, there are three things you don't ask, and four things you don't. Answer: Don’t ask about family privacy, don’t ask about love affairs, don’t ask about changes in the situation; don’t ask about officials’ itineraries, don’t ask about flowers and flowers, don’t answer about foreign wars, and don’t ask about foreigners’ questions. These are our employee codes, and they are broken. The rules will be in trouble, so if you come to me again then, you have to think about the problem before you come back!"

"Thank you, senior. I will keep this in mind, junior!" I smiled and cupped my fists, leaving another three taels of silver as the consulting fee, and then left the thatched house with the two little ones.

On the way, Ling Feng asked me: "Lao Lu, what do you think about Zhao Boyuan's matter?"

My eyes were cold, and I kept saying: "This matter is very difficult. This kid is not a good thing. If he didn't turn black, he could become a pillar of the country, but it's a pity that he has become like this now..."

"Oh, Lao Ling didn't mean for you to analyze, but I want you to give me an idea. This matter... what should we do in the future?" Suo Wenchang was a little anxious. Although he was not a bad person, he was very scared. If you think about it, he and Zhao Boyuan are two opposites.

But even I don't know how to deal with this sinister guy. I can only shake my head honestly and say: "I can't say. Now we can only take one step at a time. The soldiers will block the water and come to the Tutun. Otherwise, Outside...there is nothing I can do..."

It was rare to see me looking so helpless, and both of them were very sensible and didn't say anything more. But then Ling Feng asked: "Then that old beggar..."

I shook my head: "He can't move. I can see that the old man still has a good impression of us. Although I don't know why he told us so much, it is a good thing after all. Keeping him will always be good for us." It’s beneficial. Otherwise, if we kill him in exchange for a newcomer who can’t be beaten, as he said, then our life may not be as easy as it is now. And..."

"And this old guy can prosper in Jinling City where there are many powerful people. Either he himself is super strong, or there is an extremely powerful force behind him to protect his safety. Otherwise, do you think Zhao Boyuan's method of cutting grass Is it possible that the character who must be eradicated will leave this old man who knows his countless secrets alive in the world?"

"So I'm quite glad that we didn't do anything just now, otherwise who knows what monsters will suddenly appear next. Well, we have now opened up a brand new news channel, and the advantages always outweigh the disadvantages. This Let’s leave things like this for now, and then we’ll consider whether to take action when we really have the ability to investigate who the big boss behind him is.”

Neither of them had any objections to this, and they nodded in agreement with what I said. We were speechless all the way, so we went back to the school grounds first. Looking at the courtyard full of men who were holding back their energy and gritting their teeth, they were doing horse walking. I nodded with satisfaction, turned around and said to the two of them: "This group of people We must take it into our own hands, and we may be able to work wonders when necessary.”

The two also think this is a good opportunity to expand our strength, but this time, we still have a long way to go, and we don’t know if these people will be enough by then.

After leaving the school grounds, we went straight to Zhao Boyuan's mansion according to the address written on the paper. This is a three-entry courtyard mansion located in the west of the city. What is different from other homes is that this courtyard has eight doors in front and back. In addition to the main entrance in the north, there are two doors on the east and west sides. There are even three gates on the south side of Fangshi. And it seems that these eight doors should be open every day. If the door sizes were not different, it would be unclear which one is the main door.

Outside the door, six tall, burly men stood motionless like stone men. Each of them had half the strength to step into the realm of martial arts. Being placed at the door as door gods was really overkill. You know, even the sentries at the gates of famous families in the capital would not be so extravagant as to use such pomp and circumstance. This Zhao Boyuan is really not afraid of others gossiping.

After explaining his purpose to one of the men, the man immediately handed over his hand and said: "The young master has already given instructions. The young master is currently having dinner in the front hall. I will bring the three young masters in now."

As he spoke, he turned sideways and led us through the door. I asked with some curiosity: "Brother, when your young master gave you orders, did he indicate how many of us were here?"

The man did not hide anything and said bluntly: "The young master said that if the three of them decide to come to the door, they will advance together and retreat together, so..."

He didn't say the rest of the words directly, but I understood clearly. Zhao Boyuan had determined that the three of us would come to him together. I looked back helplessly at the two slightly shocked little ones behind me. I smiled bitterly and followed the man to the front hall.

Just as the man said, there was a round table in the front hall, and Zhao Boyuan was sitting at the head seat, affectionately helping a little girl next to him pick up ribs with chopsticks. I also recognize the rest of the people. If I remember correctly, they should be almost all the relatives of Lingfeng's family who are living abroad. At least the two people sitting next to the little girl, I still remember, are Lingfeng's biological parents. !

Looking at this happy and harmonious scene in front of me, I looked at Ling Feng in a daze, but I saw that he also had a confused look on his face. After all, according to our imagination, this Zhao Boyuan has a sinister character and is unscrupulous in doing things. Ling Feng's family should be locked up in a cramped space like a woodshed. Sitting at the same table with Zhao Boyuan in such a grand manner, drinking and eating food, this scene is too weird, isn't it?

While eating, the little girl's mouth was still stained with grease. Suddenly she pointed to the door and shouted with a smile: "Brother, brother!"

With this shout, everyone's eyes in the hall focused on the three of us. Looking at the familiar family members in front of her, Ling Feng couldn't help it anymore. She strode forward and picked up her younger sister Ling Xiang, who was running towards her happily, and then looked at her with extremely excited yet somewhat ashamed eyes. Looking at the parents who cast doting looks.

"Lao Lu, what's going on here?" The fat man asked in a low voice behind me, somewhat confused.

I couldn't bear to disturb the beautiful scene of their family reunion, so I replied in a low voice: "Those are Ling Feng's family members, whom I met before. I haven't seen them for more than a year, is it normal to have such a reaction?"

The fat man nodded understandingly and followed me into the front hall. Walking up to Zhao Boyuan, I smiled and cupped my hands at him and said, "Young Master Zhao is so righteous. It seems that Mr. Lu is being narrow-minded. I'm rude, I'm rude!"

Zhao Boyuan smiled lightly, waved his hands indifferently and said: "What do you mean, Mr. Lu? I know very well the reputation of Mr. Zhao, and it is normal for people to misunderstand him. It's okay, Mr. Lu doesn't need to be so polite. By the way, you came here so late and haven’t eaten yet? Come on, come on, sit down and eat together!”

I've just had two meals, and now I feel a little moved when I look at the chicken, duck, and fish on the table, but my body really can't bear the load. But looking at the staring eyes of the fat man behind me, I really couldn't bear to see his embarrassing appearance. I smiled and cupped my hands and said, "In that case, it's better to be respectful than to obey!"

The originally spacious dining table seemed a little uncomfortable after the three of us were added to it. Of course, the most important thing was Suo Wenchang, the fat guy, who occupied at least two people's seats. Ling Chao directly hugged his sister Ling Xiang and sat back to his original position. I didn't intend to move my chopsticks, so I pulled a chair behind Zhao Boyuan and sat down.

Zhao Boyuan handed me a wine glass, and the maid next to me immediately came over to help me fill it up. Zhao Boyuan also picked up the wine glass and turned to me: "What's the matter? Have a drink first?"

I smiled and clinked a glass with him. I raised my head and drank the wine in one gulp. Anyway, my body is invulnerable to all poisons, and I am not afraid of him adding drugs to the wine.

Everyone enjoyed a sumptuous dinner happily, and the relatives of the Ling family left first. Ling Feng's parents wanted to stay with their son whom they had not seen for a long time, but the little girl Ling Xiang was restless. They were afraid that she would hurt someone, so the two elders had no choice but to apologize and go out to watch their little daughter.
