Chapter 9
The knocking continued for a while, each knocking more urgently than the last.
Zhao Shitu wondered in his heart, it was getting late, who would visit at this time.
He stood up, intending to answer the door, but he heard Shangguanqing call his name behind him: "Bartet Zhao."
He turned his head and faced the previous serious face, he felt a little guilty, and asked bravely, "Is there any question?"
Shangguan Qing said solemnly: "If the escorts this time are still cats and dogs, can we refuse to send them?"
Mingyuezhu burst out laughing.
Zhao Shitu breathed a sigh of relief: "You were worried about this, don't worry, there are so many cats and dogs to give away in the world."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a clear coughing sound from outside the door: "Ahem, who is the cat and dog that Chief Zhao said?"
All three fell silent.
"No, no, Mr. Jia, you misunderstood—" Zhao Shi turned around like Tufei, and trotted all the way to open the door.
Mingyuezhu laughed loudly behind him, Shangguanqing shook his head silently.
Although Zhao Shitu ran in a panic, he made a series of actions within a moment of opening the door - straightened his hair crown, smoothed his sleeves, took out a folding fan from the cuffs, opened it and held it to his chest.After a while, he turned into a neat, humble and upright gentleman, completely unable to see that Cai Cai was still grabbing wine for nothing.
Such superb acting skills really blinded the eyes of the guests.Director Jia looked him up and down, with a suspicious look on his face, he cupped his hands and said politely: "If Chief Zhao has something important to do, I will take my leave first and come to visit another day."
"Mr. Jia, you are being polite. My little-known bodyguard agency is no match for your mansion. I just had dinner with two bodyguards and drank a few glasses of wine. I haven't had time to clean up. , if you don’t mind, please come with me.”
Of course, Mr. Jia is not a cat or dog, but a man, and he is a very rich man.He was afraid that others would not see that he was rich, so he exchanged part of the money for gold, forged into locks, and strung them into a thick necklace, which was hung around his neck all the time.
He was short and fat, and the fine clothes and satin could hardly cover the fat on his waist. When he walked, the gold chain and the fat shook together, making a tinkling sound.
Besides the gold chain, there was also the pocket in his hand that jingled. Zhao Shitu could not help swallowing when he heard that the sound was made of white silver ingots.
Although Manager Jia's surname is Jia, the money in his pocket must be genuine.Because he happened to be the manager of the Yuan family, and the Yuan family happened to be one of the richest people in Dunhuang.
There is only one thing that Zhao Shitu doesn't understand, why the manager of the Yuan Mansion came to him.
It didn't look like a bad thing, because Manager Jia entered the main hall, first bent down and bowed, the fat on his stomach shook, like an inflated ball: "Is Zhao's business going well recently? The business is really busy, if there is any negligence, I hope Haihan."
Where is negligence, the attitude before the dart club can only be described as "turning a blind eye".But Zhao Shitu couldn't say it directly, he could only answer: "It's not bad, and the manager Lao Jia will worry about it."
Manager Jia glanced at the dishes on the table: "There is wine and meat, it seems that life is really good."
——That's because you didn't look at it when you were eating white flour steamed buns.
Zhao Shitu swallowed his thoughts and asked slowly: "Mr. Jia is here to inspect the business?"
Manager Jia shook his head and said, "That's not true, I'm here to take care of someone's dart."
Zhao Shitu waved the paper fan: "Bring someone's darts? I don't know where the nobleman is, but I need to trouble Manager Jia to go there himself."
Mr. Jia said, "To tell you the truth, he is our master."
Zhao Shitu raised his eyebrows and said, "Forgive me for being stupid, Mr. Yuan is clearly in charge of the largest Golden Sword Escort Bureau in the whole city, why do you need someone to entrust the darts?"
Director Jia shook his head and said: "Oh, it's not that the master's birthday is approaching, and he wants to feast on heroes from all over the world. The whole house is busy, and there is no spare manpower. The banquet is approaching, and there are many people who come to give gifts Unceasingly, a few days ago, the family received a letter, and the person who wrote the letter said that he wanted to present a rare treasure to Master Yuan as a token of respect."
Zhao Shitu said: "Forgive me, the people who presented treasures to Mr. Yuan are probably lined up in front of the door recently. If you wish to celebrate your birthday sincerely, then you should just present the treasures generously. Why do you have to write a letter to make a fuss?"
Mr. Jia said: "That man is a doctor, he only knows how to heal patients, he knows nothing about martial arts, and he lives outside the customs all year round. If he wants to offer treasures, he must first enter the customs. The journey is far away. He is afraid of being targeted by thieves on the way. The baby was robbed."
Ming Yuezhu interjected: "So this time the errand is not to send darts, but to fetch darts?"
Director Jia nodded and said, "The other side has a map attached to the letter, and they really hope that we can send someone to pick it up."
Zhao Shitu frowned: "Forgive me, this matter is a bit strange. Where can a doctor who doesn't know martial arts find rare treasures? If it's just a joke, then our work is in vain. If before we arrive , the baby was robbed, we still made a trip for nothing."
Mr. Jia obviously took over such a strange matter for the first time. Beads of sweat were already dripping on his forehead. He raised his head, and the chain around his neck dangled again, and then said earnestly: "You can't say that, you are all young. People, I may not have had many acquaintances. In fact, the world is very strange. The more bizarre the unheard of words, the more truthful. As for another concern, this letter has only been sent for a few days. If you leave immediately, be the first machine, don’t worry about it.”
Zhao Shitu smiled slightly: "Boss Jia's views are indeed very positive, and Zhao has benefited a lot." Seeing the other party's gaze turned to him, his eyes also froze, and he changed the subject, "But it will take some time for such a trip. A lot of time."
Mr. Jia said: "There is still a full moon before the birthday banquet. If you hurry up, a round trip will be more than enough."
Zhao Shitu went on to say: "But the desert outside the pass is vast, if you hurry up, the cost on the road may not be small..."
"Don't worry about that." Mr. Jia lifted up the bag of silver in his hand and put it on the table.
The silver was spread out in the bag, making a clattering sound.
Zhao Shitu was dumbfounded. Although he was not as able to recognize the number by hearing the voice as Shangguanqing, he could tell that there was definitely a lot of money in it.He turned his peripheral vision to the two companions, and saw that they were more surprised than himself.
All three fell silent.Seeing this, Mr. Jia continued, "This is half of the deposit, including the expenses on the way. You can use it. If everything is successful, you will pay the other half."
Zhao Shitu swallowed involuntarily.
Manager Jia raised the corners of his mouth, and the fat on his face squeezed out from the inside and outside of his chin, and he formed a rather difficult smile: "Hey, Escort Zhao, what do you think?"
Zhao Shitu looked at him, then at the silver, put the paper fan together, knocked it on the table, gritted his teeth and said, "Deal."
Zhao Shitu wondered in his heart, it was getting late, who would visit at this time.
He stood up, intending to answer the door, but he heard Shangguanqing call his name behind him: "Bartet Zhao."
He turned his head and faced the previous serious face, he felt a little guilty, and asked bravely, "Is there any question?"
