Siheyuan: My name is Cao Xing, and I have a strong background

Sha Zhu looked at Xu Damao and his son leaving, and his heart was filled with mixed feelings.

He understood that he was able to defeat Xu Damao so thoroughly this time thanks to boarding Cao Xing's boat.

Otherwise, with his limited abilities, it would be good enough if he didn't get killed by Xu Damao and his son.

During the day, Sha Zhu arranged for people to demolish the house, and they were busy until the evening. Only then did he change his clothes and walk out of the courtyard.

After a great victory today, he booked a restaurant to treat Cao Xing, Liao Wu and Hua Qianqiu to dinner tonight.

The location was set at Huize Garden.

This is the famous big pipe in the city.

In the private room, Cao Xing sat at the head, Liao Wu and Hua Qianqiu sat on his left and right, and Sha Zhu sat on the outside.

The four of them had a very pleasant conversation.

Sha Zhu raised his glass and said, "Thanks to Mr. Hua's help today, I was able to vent my anger."

Hua Qianqiu is an experienced man who knows very well that the credit always goes to the leader and he just needs to drink some soup.

"This is all thanks to Mr. Cao's connections and Mr. Liao's personal connections. Otherwise, this wouldn't be possible!"

Sha Zhu also hurriedly said: "Yes, all three of you have made contributions. I toast to you with this glass of wine."

Cao Xing said with a smile: "Zhu Zi, Mr. Hua is from Qianmen, and Qianmen has its own rules. You have to pay him the hard work fee tonight, and from now on you two will not know each other."

Upon hearing this, Hua Qianqiu quickly stood up and flattered, "I am just a dead bone in a grave. I have used low-class methods, which are not worthy of Mr. Cao's attention. Besides, it is my honor to help Mr. Cao, so I dare not ask for any reward."

Cao Xing would never do a favor for such a small amount of money, so he waved his hand and said.

"Mr. Hua, we have two hearts. You have good intentions, so it's only right that you accept the money."

Sha Zhu also quickly took out the money and said, "Mr. Hua, regardless of anything else, the ginseng and snow lotus were eaten by that guy, so you have suffered a loss."

Although there are many people in this game, all of them are acting, just to deceive Xu Damao and his son.

Hua Qianqiu first disguised himself as a traveling doctor in order to be seen by Xu's mother.

He knew very well the plight of desperate people, and that desperate efforts to find a cure were not just talk.

With the invitation from Xu's mother, he went in to save people.

Although he knew nothing about medical skills, he was able to obtain genuine hundred-year-old ginseng and snow lotus.

These two medicines are not cheap. The price on the black market has risen to nearly two hundred each. He had a hard time getting two sets of each.

It is impossible to cure the disease by taking this set of medicine.

But the drug was so powerful that even a dying person could force himself to breathe, let alone Xu Fugui who was not yet dead.

The ginseng and snow lotus had to be taken in several doses, and Hua Qianqiu let him drink it all in one gulp. With the medicinal effects evaporating, Xu Fugui could go without sleep for three days without any problem.

This therefore created the illusion that Xu Fugui had been cured.

The father and son were successfully tricked.

For Qianmen, deceiving people is an art, especially for a veteran like Hua Qianqiu, who can basically control every detail flawlessly.

However, it is extremely difficult to successfully trap someone.

However, once the other party falls into the trap, there is no need to say more about what happens next. It can be said that victory is basically in hand.

This carefully designed scam not only enabled Sha Zhu to successfully take back his house, but also allowed him to indirectly appreciate the terrifying nature of Cao Xing.

Even the shrewd Hua Qianqiu was extremely respectful when facing Cao Xing and did not even dare to breathe. This shows how high Cao Xing's status was.

Not to mention Cao Xing himself, even Liao Wu who was beside him was so powerful and awe-inspiring that Hua Qianqiu did not dare to offend him either. All this really opened Sha Zhu's eyes.

Cao Xing smiled and said, "Zhu Zi, you should give all the money you got from Xu Damao to Mr. Hua. This will put an end to your cooperation and you should stop communicating with each other from now on."

According to Qianmen’s rules, once the work is completed, there will be no more contact with the employer. This can be considered a means of self-protection.

Hua Qianqiu quickly said: "It is my honor to work for Mr. Cao."

Liao Wu said with some displeasure: "My master told you to keep it, so just keep it. Why are you talking so much nonsense!"

Upon hearing this, Hua Qianqiu quickly said, "Yes, yes, I am a little confused."

He is a man of the world, so he naturally understands Liao Wu's status.

Rumor has it that there is a master behind Liao Wu. Since Liao Wu followed him, he has been like a fish leaping over the dragon gate and soaring into the sky.

He knew that Cao Xing was such a master.

He originally wanted to take this opportunity to establish some friendship with Cao Xing, but now it seems that the other party does not take him seriously at all.

Cao Xing waved his hand and said, "Liao Wu, Mr. Hua is at least a senior in the martial arts world. As the saying goes, you never stop learning. There is a reason for his existence in every walk of life."

Although Hua Qianqiu is only considered a lower class person in the martial arts world, since he exists, he has his good points.

Cao Xing is very optimistic about Hua Qianqiu, otherwise he would not come here for this meal.

I saw Cao Xing talking freely.

"Since ancient times, there have been many industries in the world, which can be roughly divided into 365 small industries and 72 major industries. In addition to these orthodox industries, there are also some industries that are not included in the world's hundreds of industries, existing in the three religions and nine classes. Among them, the eight large-scale industries are called the Eight Outer Industries, and Qianmen is one of them. Mr. Hua, I see that you are experienced in doing things, so you must have a high status among the Qianmen."

Hua Qianqiu bowed and said, "I didn't expect Mr. Cao to know so much about our Qianmen. You are right. I am the current leader of Qianmen."

"The current sect leader?" Liao Wu was also surprised.

Qianmen belongs to the Outer Eight Sects. Although its strength cannot be compared with that of a behemoth like Hongmen, it is indeed very secretive.

In particular, the secrecy of their personnel and their communication methods are almost the same as those of spies.

Liao Wu had only asked Hua Qianqiu to do something for him before, so he was arrested this time.

However, he really didn't expect that Hua Qianqiu had such a high status in Qianmen.

According to the rules of the underworld, he has not yet become the leader of the Hongmen, and his status is one generation lower than Hua Qianqiu.

But he didn't care too much. It was just a thousand gates. Now that he held great power, it would only take a word for him to destroy the thousand gates of the four-nine cities.

Cao Xing's personality has changed a lot and he will never look down on anyone.

He just raised his glass and drank with Hua Qianqiu, then said.

"I noticed that Mr. Hua's brows were a little fluctuating. Did something happen recently?"

Hua Qianqiu knew human nature well. If there were some unsolvable problems, he would rather not have contact with big shots like Liao Wu and Cao Xing.

I had always wanted to build connections in order to solve my own problems.

He didn't reply immediately, but looked at Sha Zhu.

"Mr. He is no longer worried now. How about I charge you the cost price of 600 yuan?"

Now Sha Zhu has come to his senses and understands that Hua Qianqiu is trying to drive people away.

What's more, Hua Qianqiu saved him two hundred yuan with just one sentence. It was such a good thing, so he naturally paid the money and left.

After he left, Hua Qianqiu stood up and bowed to Cao Xing.

"Please, Mr. Cao, save our Qianmen. If we can avoid this disaster, our Qianmen will follow your lead!"
