I'm just a local tyrant [Comprehensive martial arts]

All irrelevant people were left outside the courtyard, only the second brother of the Hua family walked into Huamanlou's courtyard.

As soon as he entered, the second elder brother of the Hua family sighed, "Qi Tong, didn't the elder brothers say that you should not interfere in this matter."

It turned out that the second brother of the Hua family had already guessed that Huamanlou hired someone to investigate the thief when the broken voice led them to Huamanlou's small courtyard.

It stands to reason that after he guessed it, he didn't need to come to the small courtyard in person.

But he himself proposed in public to reward those who provide clues, so naturally he must show that he attaches importance to these clues, so that other people will pay more attention.

So there is nothing wrong with following the clue provider.

In addition, the second brother of the Hua family really wanted to come, and once again solemnly warned Hua Manlou that it would be better for him not to participate in this matter.

However, in the small courtyard of Huamanlou, you will see Ximen Chuuxue who has the faint possibility of becoming the No. Things that my brother couldn't think of in advance.

This Ximen Chuuxue's swordsmanship is strong, so there is no need to repeat it.

There are already many people who dare not learn swordsmanship anymore, because they will never be able to surpass Ximen Chuuxue in this life.

This kind of deterrent power was hard to come by a hundred years ago.

The last one that made many people afraid to touch a certain weapon was the Sky Saber Song Que.

During the 30 to [-] years when Song Que became famous all over the world, how many people lost to Song Que broke their precious swords, and they have never been famous in the world since then.

If it is a blessing to meet Ximen Chuuxue, then getting to know Ximen Lanxing is even more joyful for the second brother Hua.

He has long heard that many cities north of the Yangtze River and the official roads connecting cities have been paved with cement, which has improved the speed of logistics and trade, and made people's lives much more convenient.

According to Brother Hua’s friends in the imperial court a few years ago, because of the increase in the population of Guanzhong, the planting area is too small, and the transportation in Chang’an is very inconvenient. The imperial court actually considered moving the capital to Luoyang, which is more accessible.The result was that this cement made it a little easier to transport goods, food, etc., and it gave Chang'an another sigh of relief.

Jiangnan's current development is catching up with Guanzhong. If it can get the help of cement roads and cooperate with shipping, it will be able to better link with Guanzhong and even the northern region.

The Hua family has long wanted to play a role in the laying of cement. After getting to know Ximen Lanxing, he will introduce him to cooperate with the imperial court. The Hua family will definitely be able to deal with the cement agency in the Jiangnan area. Take it down.

Brother Hua was secretly excited.

Compared with those treasures hidden in the warehouse, this may be the birthday gift his father hopes to get more.

Just because of this thought, Second Brother Hua also dismissed his previous thoughts.

He originally thought that even if he pretended to be his eldest brother's usual attitude with a stern face, he would keep Huamanlou away from this robbery incident.

But now, not only Qitong from his family wants to know the truth, but also Lu Xiaofeng, who is as capable of causing trouble as it is of solving trouble, is also involved. In addition, the future collaborator is obviously interested in this matter. Brother naturally has to change the way of handling.

"Hey, let's talk about this, tell me how much you know, and I'll tell you again, what I can say."

Brother Hua directly lifted the teapot and poured a cup of water to moisten his lips.

Hua Manlou just wanted to reach out to stop him, but he was a beat too late.

Therefore, none of the people in the room reminded Brother Hua that the teapot he was pouring water from was just now Lu Xiaofeng directly drank several pots of water from the teapot mouth to mouth.

Ximen Lanxing: Silence is Cambridge at this time.

...Although I don't know where Cambridge is.

By the time the two maidservants Suzaku and Baihu brought new teapots and cups silently, Second Brother Hua had already learned that three thieves had visited their storeroom last night.

"About the book left by the thieves, my elder brother has actually sent someone to invite Jin Jiuling, the detective from Dali Temple, to investigate in the mansion. It should arrive in the next two days. But since all the chivalrous men are so concerned about this matter, I will trouble you to join me. I helped with the investigation." Brother Hua sighed, "I will hand over the letter left by the thief to Lu Xiaofeng later, Qitong, if you want to participate, you can participate."

"Second brother..."

"You know, the family members don't want you to worry about anything." Brother Hua patted Hua Manlou on the shoulder, "Father and brothers want Qitong to be safe."

Before Hua Manlou could answer, Second Brother Hua suddenly thought of something, "The Second Young Master has not said just now, do you have a name for this suit? Can it be mass-produced? Are there any Jiangnan agents? How about the Hua family? "

Such a large cement business still needs to be discussed with the imperial court. Of course, Second Brother Hua can't directly express his interest in cement. It's better to start with clothes first.

It can be seen from the fact that Ximen Lanxing is very fond of this set of clothes just now, the second young master of Ximen also attaches great importance to the clothes.Why don't we sell clothes first, establish a good relationship, and then talk about other cooperation matters.

Brother Hua didn't know that Ximen Lanxing didn't want to bring up the topic of clothes at all.

But just can't get around it...

Because this is the main task QAQ

"This set of clothes was designed with the inspiration of assassins and knights in the previous dynasty. It has a certain degree of concealment, and it makes people who see this set of clothes feel a deadly sense of danger. That's why the name of this set of clothes Yes—one person in ten steps. It is taken from a poem: kill a person in ten steps, and never stay for a thousand miles." Ximen Lanxing puffed out her chest uncomfortably, trying to support herself with the deep V design.

"Ten steps to kill a person, a thousand miles will not keep you away..." Hua Manlou lowered his head and silently recited this poem again.

"Good poems are not just written by who? I've never heard of them before, could it be the Second Young Master?" Second Brother Hua clapped his hands and held the field.

Ximen Lanxing:?

Isn't this a poem that everyone knows?Then why did he know, and still think of the name of this suit?

Could it be another fragmented memory from the previous life?

"It's not my poems, I don't have that ability." Ximen Lanxing waved his hand,

Although he couldn't remember whose poem it was, he wouldn't be known as a poet for nothing.

"I think this poem fits Ximen Chuuxue's temperament. Could it be someone from Saibei who admires Ximen Chuuxue's poem?" Lu Xiaofeng stroked his beard and turned his eyes away from Ximen Chuuxue. Changing the subject, I looked at Second Brother Hua, "Second Master, let me tell you that you are really good at clues with empty gloves."

"Okay, let's talk about our discovery, and you can tell what you can tell. In the end, what you can tell is to bring the letter to me later?"

"How long has it been since the Hua family received this letter? How did the family judge it? Is there any suspicious target? Do you know what is going to be stolen? Have any unknown people come to the house in the past few months? "

Lu Xiaofeng asked several questions in succession, and the smile on Brother Hua's face gradually couldn't hold back when he asked.

"Second Master, the suspect I was chasing yesterday is very familiar with the mansion, and also knows people outside the mansion and the city, which means that the days are not short. The Hua family has not noticed it for a while. Is there any suspicious person?" Lu Xiaofeng knocked on the table with her fingers, motioned for Second Brother Hua to sit down and speak clearly, "Don't mention the one I was chasing, just the second villain that Second Young Master saw, but it was very targeted. The land is stealing things, how many people have read the gift list received by the Hua family, could it be that some information was leaked from this gift list and let the bad guys know?"

"Brother Lu, the Hua family is very big, and they have been preparing for this birthday banquet for a long time. There are really many people involved. I can't answer the answers to these questions you asked. But I can give you some answers, or At least someone who can give some information. For example, the list of new servants in the Hua family in the past few months, the list of people who manage the warehouse and know the gift list, etc. I will definitely cooperate with the investigation of several people, and I will also give all this information to Jin Jiuling The detective has prepared a copy." Brother Hua cupped his hands and said that he would arrange for someone to deliver these lists later.

"The two people who came first did have a little bit of clues, and the scope is a bit big. It will take a lot of time to find them." Lu Xiaofeng glanced at Huamanlou, and found that he didn't mind being so 'aggressive' towards his second brother, so he continued. He continued, "And this third person stole a lot of things. After the second master found out that the warehouse was stolen this morning, did he check the gift list and the list of storage, and what is missing? If you know If something is missing, we can track it down from this aspect."

"I've sent someone to check the list of stolen items, and now I'm going to start searching along the tiles that the man stepped on. Why don't you guys go and have a look with me?" Second Brother Hua stood up first, and put out a A 'please' gesture, this move is very cooperative, but no matter how you look at it, it looks more like a deliberate change of subject.

Lu Xiaofeng also replied a 'please', and the two walked out of the room together.

Saying goodbye to his elder brother who was not interested in the investigation process, Ximen Lanxing patted Hua Manlou's shoulder familiarly, "Let's go take a look together?"

"—Go and see, what else is your second brother hiding?"

What is it that the Hua family is afraid of being stolen?

The author has something to say:

Question: Why does Second Brother Hua have no name?

Answer: Because I can't get a name that looks like Brother Huamanlou.And if you take one of them, you have to take all six...

Do you want to consider gold, wood, water, fire, earth, moon and flowers?

Note time to:

In Lu Xiaofeng's book, Jin Jiuling belongs to the six sects.

As we all know, I set the background of the story in the Tang Dynasty, so Jin Jiuling became [Dali Temple].

The well-known figures in Dali Temple that everyone is familiar with should be

Di Renjie.

Just Yuan Fang, what do you think of Di Renjie (if everyone likes him, he will come to make a cameo).

*******

After Ximen Cement, there will be another nickname soon.
