Traveling through farming with the system, I cooked delicious food in ancient times

As soon as the bearded man entered the hut, he was attacked from behind by Lou Lan'er and knocked unconscious.

She tied the big man to a stool and gagged his mouth with a cloth.

The waiter knocked on the door to deliver food. Lou Laner took the waiter's plate from the door and told him not to come again.

Lou Lan'er was the only one left in the house, and she was thinking about how to disguise herself as this person and go to investigate.

Yi Zhili came to the house and said, "Lou Lan'er, leave it to me. You're not tall enough, and I know a little bit about the art of disguise."

The two of them worked together, and Lou Laner disguised a pear tree as this bearded man.

"Don't tell me, I won't recognize you even if you add a beard!"

Yi Zhi Li and Lou Lan'er pretended to be drinking and dancing in the house. An hour later, Yi Zhi Li, disguised as a bearded man, holding a wine bottle in one hand, walked to the table of his companions half drunk, and started drinking and eating meat again.

As soon as midnight passed, members of the Goshawk Gang followed to help Peng Ying and went to the warehouse of Qingxiang Building.

Hidden in this cart of grain were many unmolded silver ingots.

A group of people took advantage of the night to go to a secret location to cast the rice noodles, which was underground at Shopkeeper Hu's rice noodle workshop in the north of Lihua Town.

That day was the second day of casting in Lihua Town, and it would take three days to complete this month's batch.

Yi Zhili successfully brought the news to Mu Zhiyuan the next day, while he continued to lurk among the Goshawk Gang.

When Mao Xi heard that shopkeeper Hu had colluded with gangs to refinance the embezzled taxes, he immediately understood why the prices of the Jinyu Pavilion dishes at Qingxiang House were so expensive.

"Brother Mu, they are laundering money. They remelt the stolen money into broken silver, which can then be used legally. The corrupted broken silver is also washed into tradable silver using the high vegetable prices of Qingxianglou."

"Ah Shu, I have asked Yi Zhili to collect evidence. Now I will hold still. I want to use Peng Ying to dig out the mastermind behind Beidu Heilan."

"It's strange. That day when Peng Ying came to Haoweilou, he didn't really come to cause trouble. Could it be that they have any new plots?"

"It's very possible. Lou Lan'er said that Peng Ying and his entourage were very happy to reward the golden beans. The gold beans are more valuable than silver coins. It's very likely that the Goshawk Gang has made a deal with the Black Lan Society. Maybe After the recasting of Guanyin, Peng Ying will connect Heilanhui with Shopkeeper Hu."

Mao Xi thought of the various deeds of the Black Orchid Society in the past. First, in the imperial examination fraud case, the assassin sent by Lu Zhizhou assassinated Brother Mu. Later, Mo Xia, who pretended to join the Black Orchid Society, also assassinated him once.

There is also the troupe owner who sells young people, as well as the Lin Mansion and the Cao Gang, all of whom are controlled by the Black Orchid Society.

"Brother Mu, the Black Orchid Society not only colluded with some officials and businessmen, but also tried to assassinate you many times. Have you ever made enemies in Beijing? Could it be an assassination by a political faction?"

Mao Xi analyzed this way because she watched too many costumed conspiracy dramas before time travel. The assassination was either a vendetta or just for money and power.

Mu Zhiyuan was shocked. He did not expect that Mao Xi had the same opinion about Heilan Society as he did.

The last time he came back from Beidu, he was assassinated again, but Mu Zhiyuan hadn't told Shui Xi yet.

This time the prince sent a pear to help. Presumably the northern capital has also started to eradicate the Black Orchid Society, so they are eager to regain their power in Lingnan.

Is the person behind the Black Orchid Society Liang Wang, or is it just a private gang?

Although he has no clue yet, Mao Xi knows that as long as he has anything to do with the Black Orchid Society, it will threaten Mu Zhiyuan's life.

We cannot allow the power of the Black Orchid Society to resurgence in the Lingnan area!

Maybe she can do something for Brother Mu.

Three days later, inside Qingxiang Building.

Peng Ying had a private discussion with Shopkeeper Hu in Jinyu Pavilion.

Shopkeeper Hu: "Brother Peng, I respect you and have a pleasant cooperation! This silver casting was very successful! Brother Peng, didn't you promise to teach me a lesson to the shopkeeper of Haoweilou? Why did you go there once and there was no sound?" ?”

Peng Ying picked a piece of roast mutton with a knife and put it into his mouth: "What's the rush? I want to introduce the business of Black Orchid Club to you first. We'll talk about the restaurant later!"

This time Peng Ying came to Lihua Town to clean dirty silver, and Shopkeeper Hu got a lot of benefits.

"I wonder what the Heilan Club needs from me? Do they have anyone here?"

Lou Lan'er and Yi Zhili were lying on the roof of Jinyu Pavilion, monitoring every move in the room.

Peng Ying took out a packet of paper and opened it carefully. There was white powder inside.

Shopkeeper Hu sniffed it closer, picked up some powder with his little finger, and tasted it.

"Xiaoyaosan! Brother Peng, if you want to sell this banned drug, you will lose your head!"

Shopkeeper Hu hesitated.

He didn't want to put his own life on the line just for the sake of having a powerful backer.

Seeing that shopkeeper Hu seemed to be refusing, Peng Ying inserted the knife directly into the roast lamb and cut the meat on the plate into two halves.

The look in his eyes revealed that since he had boarded this pirate ship, there was no way he could get off the ship.

With trembling hands, Shopkeeper Hu first wrapped the Xiaoyao Powder in paper and said weakly: "Brother Peng, is this the Xiaoyao Powder business that Hei Lanhui can only do?

I'm a restaurant owner. If I'm accidentally discovered, won't my head have to move? The magistrate of Kaitang is a blue sky, and Prince Mu is also in Lihua Town. Aren't you trying to kill me? "

"Don't rush to answer. Please think about it for a few days. When the chief helmsman of the Black Orchid Society comes, I will take you to see him."

"Brother Peng, do you want me to sell Xiaoyao Powder to diners? Or do you want me to sell Xiaoyao Powder to the public through other channels?"

Peng Ying didn't answer anymore and kept chewing the mutton.

On the roof of Jinyu Pavilion, Lou Laner looked at Yi Zhili and whispered: "Brother Li Bing, the Black Lan Society... they are coming to Lingnan again, where is the prince?"

"I'll go and tell the prince that you continue to stay here to check. I'll be back tomorrow. Has the bearded man made any arrangements?"

"Don't worry, I'm hiding him in a shabby house and tying him up. Brother Ludago is watching."

"This matter is of great importance, so I will take the first step."

Lou Lan'er had just returned to the wing where the dance band was resting, and everyone had gone to bed.

Dancer Aying turned over and saw Lou Lan'er who had just laid down: "Lou Lan'er, why are you crazy? Are you going to meet your lover?"

Lou Lan'er lowered her eyebrows and thought of Qi Rui, although she said goodbye to Qi Rui before coming here as an undercover agent and lied that she was going back to her hometown in Beisu to visit relatives.

But after Lou Laner disguised herself and performed Hu Wu on the stage of Qingxiang Tower, she saw Qi Rui twice among the diners, and her eyes glanced at her from time to time.

Even though she had changed her appearance and was still wearing a veil, Lou Laner knew from Qi Rui's eyes that he had recognized her.

"I hope Brother Qi won't get involved in this. Should I tell her?" Lou Laner turned over, feeling a little insomnia.
