[Quick time travel] Revenge for kindness?

Chapter 18 The Hall of Longevity

Now that they had clues, Fang Ping and Gu Yinian sped up their journey and entered Yancheng before sunset the next day.

In ancient towns, Fang Ping had seen them and visited them in her boring days. In addition, Yancheng is most famous for its nearby iron mines. There are many tinkling blacksmith shops or meals for miners in the city. Looking for a small restaurant under the name of the Palace of Eternal Life while looking at it with low interest.

"Look?" Holding back Gu Yinian, Fang Ping pointed to a shop not far away.

The plaque on the shop has been damaged, but the unique sign of the Hall of Eternal Life is intact, and the shop is obviously in the middle of the road, no one opens the door in broad daylight, and there are two or three big men holding swords standing at the door.

"It seems that it is the shop under our name, let's go and have a look."

I don't know what to look at in the past, but I just glanced at Fang Ping's hand holding my wrist, Gu Yinian didn't ask any questions, I just hoped that the road would be longer, and it would be better if it never ends.

"The two brothers..."

"Who are you?" Seeing someone coming up to strike up a conversation, one of the big men had a bad expression on his face, and raised his hand holding a knife, and seeing that the person who struck up a conversation was a frail man, he let go of his guard again, and his tone was very impatient.

"Brother, don't mind. My surname is Hira, and I'm from Yangcheng. This time I came to Yancheng to do some business. I saw that this shop is very good, so I wanted to ask you two. I don't know who owns this shop, and the asking price how many."

Hearing this, the faces of the big men eased a lot. Of course, the most important thing is that the money that Fang Ping secretly gave them played a role.

"This shop now belongs to our Qinglong Gang. If you really want to buy it, I can recommend you to meet our Master Jiang. He is in charge of managing all the shops of the Qinglong Gang. It's just that Master Jiang is not something you can meet whenever you want. "

Anyone with a little vision could understand what the man hadn't finished speaking. He stuffed another ingot of silver and brought Gu Yi Nian, who had been silent all along, followed behind the big man, turning around and entering a small door. Great estate.

"See, the room in front is where Mr. Jiang settles accounts. Mr. Jiang usually has a lot of things to do. If I hadn't had a good relationship with Mr. Jiang, if someone else had changed, your money would have doubled, so it would have been impossible for me to come in."

"Yes, thank you brother."

"That's your wife, right? If we're talking about business, you and I can go in. What can a woman do, let her wait outside."

"This is not my wife, she is my younger sister, brother, you don't know, my sister is not very smart, what if she bumps into someone outside alone... It doesn't matter if we brothers and sisters are unlucky, I am afraid that you will not Good to explain."

Fang Ping's words fell into the ears of the big man, and they really made sense. From the beginning, the little lady followed the scholar and did not speak. At first I thought I was thinking too much, but now I am really afraid that this little lady has a brain problem, and thinking of those new guests, if he really bumps into the guests, he will lose his life.

"...Then take care of your sister and don't let her talk nonsense."

"okay."

Fang Ping responded straightforwardly, but Gu Yinian felt that this person was getting more and more childish behind her. Before, she was asked to pretend to be a big man with beards, but because she thought she was thin, he asked her to pretend to be a young wife. The younger sister, who was still a dim-witted younger sister, couldn't help pinching Xia Ping's jaw after all. The force was not very strong, and it was already a rare protest by Gu Yinian.

Gu Yinian is too kind to Fang Ping, except for her persistence in a certain matter, Fang Ping really wants stars, Gu Yinian will not give her the moon and the sun, Fang Ping wants Gu Yinian to go down the knife mountain, Gu Yinian will not frown Just like this, a guy like a doll cat suddenly scratched his paw one day, even if there was no wound, even if he just patted himself with a meat pad, it was already rare enough.

Holding Gu Yinian's hand tightly, resisting the urge to look back at that person, Fang Ping followed into the house of the legendary Master Jiang.

"Master Jiang."

"What are you doing here?" Mr. Jiang had a little impression of the big man. Isn't he the cousin of his wife's natal family?

The big man knew that just because of that little distant relationship, he was not enough to be too casual, and he usually called Jiang Ye, "Jiang Ye, isn't this the shop where we shorted out those women? Just now this one said that he wanted to sell that one." Shop, so I brought him to see you."

Hearing that what Fang Ping wanted to buy was the shop of the Palace of Eternal Life, Master Jiang looked at the big man with more relaxed eyes. His subordinates did not know the skills of the Palace of Longevity. He left suddenly, and people from the Palace of Eternal Life came to kill him. The Qinglong Gang might not be enough for the Palace of Longevity, so the gang leader mentioned two days ago that he would find a new owner for that shop. Second, there is an extra income, and third, the valuables in the shop have been looted. After the shop is sold out, people from the Hall of Eternal Life will come to make trouble. Let the buyer reason with the Palace of Eternal Life. They Qinglong Gang can stay out of the matter and say that everything is a misunderstanding. Anyway, it was the subordinates of those black robes who did it at the time...

The abacus jingled, Master Jiang patted the big man on the shoulder, Fang Ping Yi Rongcheng's scholar said: "I don't know what to call this man?"

"My surname is Ping."

"It turned out to be Mr. Ping. I don't know where Mr. is from. Why did you come to Yancheng to do business?"

"Master Jiang, this is it?"

"Mr. Ping, don't be surprised. There have been a lot of troubles in Yancheng recently. The owner of the shop you fancy came to sell the shop because of an accident. In order to prevent the husband from losing money, I have to ask the gentleman what he is doing here for." , if the husband left his hometown for refuge, I'm afraid that the husband will suffer."

"Master Jiang's words made Wansheng feel ashamed. He always said that there is no business and no adultery, but Mr. is a kind person. He thought of Wansheng so much. At first, Wansheng was afraid that there was something wrong with this shop. Now, Wansheng has bought this shop. "From what Fang Ping said, Master Jiang almost became her benefactor of reinvention. In fact, she didn't say anything about what Master Jiang asked.

It would not be appropriate to ask the same question a second time. After thinking about that there would be no male disciples in the Hall of Eternal Life, and seeing the scholar's sloppy footsteps and lack of energy, Master Jiang pondered for a moment and said: "In this case, I don't care It’s too much to ask, I don’t know if Mr. Ping thinks this number is fair?”

Fang Ping smiled when he saw the numbers displayed by the other party with his thumb and index finger, "I sincerely traded with Master Jiang, but Master Jiang gave such a number, Wan Sheng almost thought that the person he was talking to just now was another Master Jiang."

"Mr. Ping, don't worry, if it's just the shop, it's not worth the money, but if you add the back yard and the protection of my Qinglong Gang, sir, it's worth it."

"Oh, Master Jiang, can you do the math for Wansheng, what did Wansheng earn?"

"Mr. Ping, you know that I, the Qinglong Gang, take care of the shop for everyone on weekdays. For that kind of shop, the monthly fee is 120 taels, and 50 taels a year. During the holidays, do brothers need a drink money, daily weapon repairs? Expenses, seeing a doctor, buying clothes, at least 80 taels of red envelopes in a year, Mr. Ping seems to want to do big business, less than 200 taels, wouldn't it be a slap in the face of the husband, one year is already 1000 taels, but if the husband buys this shop, the Qinglong gang won’t ask for a penny from him within five years, that’s a saving of 200 taels, so if you do the math, you’ll earn [-] taels.”

"Then, do I still get a bargain?"

"Sir, you really got a big deal."

"Then what if I don't want to be so cheap?"

"...Mr. Ping, this is the territory of the Qinglong Gang. Sir, you should know that some things are settled as soon as they are good."

"Hehe, then I'd better find a shop somewhere else." Fang Ping pulled Gu Yinian to do something and left, inadvertently, the banknote in her arms fell to the ground.

Although Mr. Jiang is not young anymore, his eyesight is not worse than that of young people. Seeing that the amount on the bank notes is huge, there are about a dozen bank notes in that stack of bank notes. Mr. Jiang secretly thought that this frail scholar looks indifferent , It turned out that he was still carrying a golden treasure, but a frail scholar and a little girl. They were stopped by others, but he went to find the people above him.

He thought he had made a great contribution, but what Master Jiang didn't know was that everything he did was intentional by Fang Ping. He intentionally let Master Jiang see the stack of bank notes. Seeing such a large amount of wealth, she is not tempted. When Master Jiang finds someone above him, it is best to have someone at the level of deputy gang leader, so that she can ask what she wants to know.

Fang Ping's luck has always been good. Master Jiang came back, bringing the boss of the Qinglong Gang with him, and two men in black robes.

Excitedly, she glanced at Gu Yinian, regardless of whether the other party could understand or not, Fang Ping was already fighting with those men in black.

I don't quite understand what's so embarrassing about this kind of thing. Gu Yinian stood silently at the same place, not wanting the members of the Qinglong Gang to see the distinguished guests fighting with others, wondering whether they should join, and seeing Gu Yinian standing in the corner, thinking that she She is easy to bully, and the gang leader will catch her first.

Backhandedly slapped the owner ten meters away, fixed the acupoints of other people with copper coins, Gu Yinian turned around, Fang Ping had disappeared.

How could a good living person suddenly disappear.

A good living person just disappeared like that.

The simple carriage is driving on the potholed path, and the pleasure of bumps is enough to wake up anyone from sleep, but what they see after waking up is not necessarily what they want to see.
