[Zuzhou] White clothes in the world

Mo Lianzhi sent Ze Baiyue away, walked back to the desk, and picked up the half-carved blood-colored agate stone.The upper part of the agate stone has already shown the appearance of carving. The exquisite long-haired girl surrounded by vines has a touch of agility and cunning in her almond eyes. She is lying on the side of the stone, with one hand stretched out, as if stirring the water in the pool.Mo Lianzhi looked at it for a while, picked up the file and prepared to continue carving, but he suddenly remembered something, and put the agate and the file on the table together.

"A Ji, come up here." Mo Lianzhi pushed open the door and called out.

The little guy who sent Ze Baiyue upstairs just now responded, and hurried up to the second floor, panting and asking: "What's your order?"

Mo Lianzhi turned his head and glanced at the agate on the desk, thought for a moment, and said, "Go and find out about the origin of Shi Leyu General Gu Minglan."

"Ah?" A Ji was stunned for a moment, and muttered, "Master, do you still want to inquire about such a famous person? Ouch!"

A Ji clutched his head, and hurriedly backed out, Mo Lianzhi's violent shudder just now made him frightened for a while.Mo Lianzhi looked at the boy who was running away like flying, and went back to the house.

When the sky was about to close, Ah Ji came back.Before A Ji raised his hand to knock on the door, he heard the owner of the house say "Come in", A Ji hurriedly opened the door and walked in, telling Mo Lianzhi everything he had found out.A Ji finished speaking in one breath, Mo Lianzhi brought A Ji a bowl of tea, A Ji was talking dry, and hurriedly thanked Mo Lianzhi, and went downstairs to continue working after drinking.

"Master Mo had better not meet Shi Leyu General Gu Minglan." Ze Baiyue said to Mo Lianzhi with a smile before leaving, but there was a meaningful light in his eyes.

"Gu Minglan..." Mo Lianzhi took a sip of tea, pondered for a moment, and then suddenly laughed. From Mo Jingzhi's guard to Shi Le's general Yu, this person is probably the one mentioned in Mo Jingzhi's letter, but I don't know, whether this is good or bad for Mo Lianzhi.

Yun Luan and Gu Minglan said that the evening market in Shahai City is very interesting, and Gu Minglan is doing nothing, walking alone in light clothes, strolling in the brightly lit Shahai Evening Market.

Beimo is famous for its agate and gold, and it is adjacent to Yankong. Many Yankong artisans set up shops in the Shahai Market to attract customers. The jewelry making method also incorporates the desolate and cold style of the desert. The handicrafts sold in the Beimo market are completely different from the style of Yankong Licheng.

Gu Minglan walked around all the shops facing the street, and finally stopped in front of a shop with four corner cornices. The shop was bigger than any other shop on the street. It looks quite outback.Gu Minglan looked up at the two lanterns with the word "ink" written on them, and stepped into the shop.

It was the busiest time of the evening market, and many people gathered in the Mohist shop. The folks who greeted customers at the door could no longer tell where they were from. The owner of the Mohist shop who had been carving agates in the room on the second floor was also greeting guests downstairs at the moment. .When Gu Minglan entered the shop, a waiter came up to greet him, and asked Gu Minglan to take a look inside the shop first, and if anyone liked it, call him, then turned around to greet the previous customers.Gu Minglan had no intention of buying agate, so he said "whatever" to the clerk, walked around the crowd, picked up a counter with slightly fewer people, and looked at the agate products on the counter.

A total of seven agate products were placed on the counter in front of him, each of which was outstanding in appearance. Compared with the agate products on the crowded counter, the ones here are more exquisite.Gu Minglan laughed lowly, he secretly thought that the seven agate products in front of him should be sky-high prices, otherwise no one would be around these exquisite products, and it was precisely this that gave him a loophole.

Six of the seven agate products are engraved with a god in Zuzhou, and the blood red agate is engraved with an exquisite and graceful girl wrapped in vines. .However, Shi Le is still white, but this agate product is based on blood red. Gu Minglan's face darkened slightly, shaking his head and sighing.

"This agate doesn't seem to be in the eyes of Mr. Gu Minglan." A mellow male voice came from Gu Minglan's ears, with some inquiries in his tone.

Gu Minglan turned her head to the side, wanting to explain to that person. After seeing the face of the owner of the voice clearly, the expression on Gu Minglan's face suddenly changed. Stop, there is nothing else in his sight except the person in front of him.

"Mo Jingzhi?" Gu Minglan's voice was low and inaudible. He thought he would never meet this person again, but he didn't expect to meet him again in Beimo.

The man blinked his brown eyes, then waved his hands and said with a smile: "Is that Marquis Jinglie of Yankong? Today more than one person said that I look like him. Let's get down to Mo Lianzhi."

"Mo... Lianzhi?" Gu Minglan came back to her senses. Although the person in front of her looked exactly the same as Mo Jingzhi, his eyes did not have the sly gleam of Mo Jingzhi. On the contrary, this person's eyes were gloomy, as if carrying a burden Too much unwillingness.Even though he was smiling so freely at the moment, he couldn't hide the forbearance in his eyes.

"Yes, Mo Lianzhi." Mo Lianzhi nodded and repeated.

Gu Minglan clasped her fists at Mo Lianzhi: "Gu..."

"Gu Minglan?" Mo Lianzhi lowered his voice and said with a smile.

Gu Minglan looked at the person in front of her in surprise, wondering how he guessed her name.Mo Lianzhi seemed to have seen through Gu Minglan, and continued to lower his voice: "General Yu entered the city overnight, although no one was alarmed, but it is not easy to deceive people's eyes and ears with a hundred-man army."

As soon as Mo Lianzhi finished speaking, Gu Minglan's eyes showed a look of guard.Mo Lianzhi turned around, looked at the seven agate statues in front of him, and said with a light smile: "Earlier today, a girl named Ze Baiyue brought an ancestor's fire mouse agate stone and asked me to have a look. I thought she was from General Yu."

"She is indeed mine, but I didn't ask her to come."

"That's strange, Miss Baiyue made a promise with me, I thought the general knew about it." Mo Lianzhi glanced at Gu Minglan from the corner of his eyes.The person in front of him was dressed casually, but he couldn't hide his handsomeness, but the bitterness hidden in his eyes made this person look even more vicissitudes.

Knowing that Mo Lianzhi was looking at her, Gu Minglan turned her head sideways: "What promise did she make with you?"

Mo Lianzhi withdrew his gaze from lingering on Gu Minglan, raised his finger to the room on the second floor and said, "There are many people here, if General Yu doesn't dislike it, why don't you go upstairs and have a talk?"

Gu Minglan nodded without refusing, and followed Mo Lianzhi to the small building that Ze Baiyue had visited earlier.

The noise downstairs was separated by the door, and Mo Lianzhi filled the glass in front of Gu Minglan with milky white kumiss.Putting down the wine pot, Mo Lianzhi raised his eyes to look at Gu Minglan, and said narrowly, "Although I am in Beimo, I have heard about the past of Marquis Jinglie."

Mo Lianzhi's gaze was directly turned over, Gu Minglan already understood what Mo Lianzhi wanted to say.Ze Baiyue had met Mo Lianzhi before, even if she didn't mention her and Mo Jingzhi's affairs, it would not be difficult for this leading businessman in Beimo to inquire about anything.

Gu Minglan smiled lightly: "It's just that the world has changed. If it were Mo Dang, I'm afraid I would make the same decision."

"Oh?" Mo Lianzhi raised his eyebrows, "General Yu is indeed a person who understands current affairs. Since General Yu knows the truth of 'times change and the world changes', why do you want to give up your original self for the dead?"

"You..." Gu Minglan couldn't help clenching the hand holding the glass cup. He never thought that Mo Lianzhi could find out this step.

Mo Lianzhi took a sip of his wine and sighed: "General Yu is a smart man, and he came here this time only for Shi Le's attack on Yan Kong. Since General Yu has already made this decision, it's not for the sake of an old friend."

"It's a pity that Mo Dang's family only operates in Beimo." Gu Minglan also took a sip of kumiss, the aroma of the wine was mixed with the aroma of milk, it was mellow and clear, and it had a special taste after drinking it.

Mo Lianzhi chuckled and said, "The time and place are right for people, I'm always a little short."

"Now the time is approaching and the location has come. As for people and harmony..." Gu Minglan put down her wine glass, looked directly at Mo Lianzhi, and said with a smile, "I don't know if Master Mo can trust me?"

Mo Lianzhi was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "I'm a businessman, and a businessman values ​​profits. The word "belief" doesn't suit me."

Gu Minglan nodded: "If you have any requests from Master Mo, you might as well talk to Gu."

"General Yu is not afraid that my lion will open his mouth?"

"To get the support of the richest businessman in Beimo, Gu Minglan can afford any request." Gu Minglan said seriously with burning eyes.

"Okay! That Zebaiyue girl promised that once Yankong was destroyed, she would let the Mo family, no, the Gu family become the new lord of Yankong, and the head of the current king of Yankong." Mo Lianzhi paused, Then he laughed, "General Yu said that girl is your subordinate, and General Yu should be able to pay more."

"Yes, I can promise you all of these." Gu Minglan nodded, waiting for more conditions from Mo Lianzhi.

"But General Yu is not a businessman after all. General Yu told me something good, so I will talk to General Yu. I don't want much from General Yu, only one thing." Mo Lianzhi stretched out his right index finger and compared it in front of Gu Minglan's eyes. , and then pointed to Gu Minglan, "You."

Gu Minglan's face suddenly changed. He had thought that Mo Lianzhi would want more land and population, but he didn't expect that Mo Lianzhi would want more land and population, but he didn't expect that Mo Lianzhi wanted himself.Gu Minglan frowned, with anger on his handsome face, he said with a sneer, "It's better to choose someone else."

"Why, my driving conditions are not good?" Mo Lianzhi said with a smile without fear of Gu Minglan's sharp eyes.

"Very bad." Gu Minglan said bluntly.

"Tsk, that's going to be difficult." Mo Lianzhi suddenly stood up, walked around the table, walked to Gu Minglan's side, bent down and whispered in Gu Minglan's ear, "Mo Jingzhi can If I want you, I can't do it?"

Facing Mo Lianzhi's threat, Gu Minglan suddenly calmed down.He turned his head, looked at Mo Lianzhi and said, "Unless you try to make me fall in love with you."

"It's a deal." Mo Lianzhi kissed Gu Minglan's cheek, and immediately released the gloomy man.
