[Comprehensive + Sword III] The nature is hard to change
Chapter 44 Investigate the news
Su Shiyi and Zhongyuan Dianhong bid farewell to Lu Xiaofeng the next day. The latter seemed to be sending Xue Bing back to Shenzhen Villa first, and then went to Wanmei Villa to find Dianhong. Get the bean curd glutinous rice rolls from the three big houses, and inquire about Huo Xiu along the way.
As for the coincidence of Xue Bing and Erniang's shoes, Miss Su didn't really care much.
One is that today's shoes are not as modern as players say, and there are only a few styles and colors, so the possibility of bumping into them is very high.Even if it wasn't for the strangeness of Xue Bing wearing white clothes and red shoes, she might not have noticed this at all, not to mention that the other party's martial arts are not very good, Su Shiyi is actually not afraid that she has something to do with Er Niang.
She has provoked the beggar gang, so are you afraid that there will be more Shenzhen villas?
Now Su Shiyi is more concerned about Huo Xiu.
Unlike Bai Yu Rubik's Cube Huan and others, although Huo Xiu is rich and extremely rich, he is very low-key. It can be said that he lives like a hermit. Many people who have met him have not even seen Nangong Ling. The rumors that are good at him are also limited to two words, withdrawn, eccentric, or one more thing can be added, that is, he is already an old man.
The reason why I know this is because of the time when this person was famous in the Jianghu.
The world's richest man suddenly appeared 50 years ago. It is said that he has no foundation at all, but he suddenly became the world's richest man.
Su Shi lowered his eyes and laughed.
To say that he has no background at all is nothing more than that no one in the Jianghu knows, if this person is not helped by someone secretly, or he came with a large sum of money.Just like she is now, everyone thinks that she came out alone, but with the 70 million taels of gold, as long as she can do business, she will soon be able to grow big.
In short, he is a man with secrets.
Such people are always much more difficult to deal with than those Nangong Ling who put everything on the surface and have been seen through.
At least, they didn't even know where Huo Xiu lived.
But as long as people are human, they will have weaknesses, and Huo Xiu is no exception.No matter how low-key he is, those business shops are very high-profile. Su Shiyi feels that they can go deep from here.Apparently, Zhongyuan Yidianhong thought the same way, paying close attention to the industry under Huo Xiu's name all the way.
When he arrived in Jiangnan, the shopkeeper of Hefangzhai was ready.
"The materials are all prepared in the backyard and can be made at any time. I don't know..." After a pause, he continued, "Although I shouldn't ask, but dim sum is always not as good as fresh after a long time. Girls need so much at a time, but recently Is it useful?"
Su Shiyi smiled, "Wufang, I know these things, you just do it."
After getting the affirmation, the shopkeeper changed the cook to another small kitchen to make the bean curd glutinous rice cake for Su Shiyi, and when it was done, it was sent to the next room for storage.
Someone else was waiting inside.
These people are responsible for stacking the pastries and loading them into the car, and then sending them to a house on the outskirts of the city.It was specially rented by Su Shiyi, for the convenience of putting things in the backpack.She pretends once every night, and inquires about Huo Xiu during the day. Of course, Zhongyuan Yidianhong is always with her.
To be precise, it was Zhongyuan Yidianhong who was going to inquire about Huo Xiu, and Miss Su followed.
In the town where they are now, Huo Xiu's stores are not too many, but there are also many. Very easily, Zhongyuan Yidianhong arrested a store owner.
"You, you..."
Miss Su pointed to the sword on Yidianhong's body at the right time.
The shopkeeper suddenly silenced, only looked at the two of them in horror, and couldn't help asking after a long while, "What exactly are you trying to do, the money in the shop was just sent away yesterday, I'm afraid..."
Su Shi twitched the corner of his mouth.
"Don't we look like robbers?"
She looked at herself, then at Zhongyuan Dianhong, and felt that no matter how she looked at it, the house robbery had nothing to do with them, and it must be because the shopkeeper's eyes were not good.
Seeing her like this, the shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief, and his face looked much better, "Then what do you want?"
Su Shiyi didn't speak any more.
This time, Zhongyuan Dianhong took the order, so everything was decided by the other party, and she would not interfere when it was not necessary.What's more, she doesn't know as much about this Jianghu as the other party, and she can't handle this situation better than Zhongyuan Dianhong, so why must she talk too much, and follow behind quietly.
It's not a bad feeling to see the other party doing things seriously.
In the backlight of the corner, Zhongyuan Dianhong restrained the shopkeeper with only one hand, and asked, "You said the silver was sent away, where did it go?"
Shopkeeper: "..."
Su Shiyi felt that there was probably only one sentence in the other party's mind, so how dare you say that you are not here to rob?
However, they are really not, it's just that there is no need to explain these to a shopkeeper, after all, the other party dare not not tell the truth, after all, no one wants to die if they can live.
Sure enough, the store manager quickly told them:
"The Cuiyu Building in the center of the city that sells jewelry, the monthly books and the money received are all sent to them, and we don't need to take care of it afterwards."
Zhongyuan Yidianhong and Su Shi exchanged glances, and they both left the place.
They didn't go directly to the Cuiyu Building mentioned by the shopkeeper, and they didn't even go far. Instead, they squatted on the nearby roof and looked at the shopkeeper who was scared to death by them.Looking back at Su Shiyi who was quietly following behind, Zhongyuan Dianhong thought about it, and then explained:
"He's just the shopkeeper here, so he shouldn't know about Huo Xiu."
Miss Su nodded and finished for him, "So we don't need to ask him where Huo Xiu is, but we want to know who his superior is from him, and then get useful information from that person." news." She was already smart, and she only needed a little bit to figure out what had happened in such a matter.
Smiling, she added, "Actually, you can't defend yourself if you don't explain. I won't question your way of questioning."
Zhongyuan Dianhong glanced at her, but said nothing.
Su Shiyi said again, "I believe in you."
From the first meeting in the inn that was not considered a 'meeting', she knew that the other party was a very professional killer, and everything that happened later confirmed this point.Whether it's the rumors in the Jianghu, or the other party's previous actions, including the time when she inquired about the Beggar Gang for her, they all confirmed that Zhongyuan Yidianhong is indeed very professional.
Therefore, Su Shiyi never doubted the other party's actions.
She didn't hesitate to believe in Zhongyuan Yidianhong's way of questioning, and made it clear that she didn't feel that there was anything wrong, but she stunned Yidianhong for a few seconds.
She said, trust him.
Zhongyuan Dianhong silently calmed the rippling heart, and was about to say something, but Su Shiyi pulled down her sleeves and distracted her attention.
"The shopkeeper is going out."
Zhongyuan Yidianhong immediately remembered the business, and brought Su Shiyi along to chase after him without a word.
The reason why they stayed there squatting was nothing more than fear that the store manager was afraid, but he still didn't tell them the truth, and just made up a place to lie to them.Regardless of whether it is true or not, the other party will definitely report after they leave, so as long as you follow, you will not worry about finding the real place.
These Zhongyuan Dianhong didn't have time to explain, but Su Shiyi was smart enough to detect it.
The two followed the shopkeeper all the way out of the city.
The road is getting more and more deviated, and there are fewer and fewer pedestrians. Su Shiyi couldn't help but said softly, "If he didn't pack his luggage and didn't have a few bank notes in his arms, I might think that he wasn't going to report , but prepared to run away." After a pause, she added, "If it weren't for the fact that he is not so courageous and is so confident that our lightness skills will not be discovered by him, I would almost suspect that the other party is deliberately playing tricks on us. play?"
Hearing this, Zhongyuan Dianhong's footsteps paused for a moment, and after Su Shiyi stopped, he suddenly said:
"Could it be, I guessed it."
Su Shiyi just wanted to say that the other party didn't look like a smart person, but she paused for a moment, because she once heard such a sentence from a player.
"Never think of others as stupid."
Even if it's like the shopkeeper, who trembles with fright when he sees the sword, it may not be that the other party can't be smart when encountering something, but there is still one thing that makes Miss Su believe that the other party has not guessed it.
because:
"Unless he dies, it won't happen."
Following this route, neither running to the yamen, nor seeking protection from the famous martial arts family in the town, is getting more and more biased, and if the people behind find that they have been cheated, they may Giving him a sword directly ended him, so it shouldn't be intentional to play around with them.
Following the shopkeeper, Su Shiyi and the two followed to a teahouse.
Ten miles outside the city.
Before entering the city, Su Shiyi and Zhongyuan Yidianhong had a rest here, and ordered a pot of herbal tea to quench their thirst. Unexpectedly, this is also Huo Xiu's property, and it is also the place where several towns around the area are in charge. How many bank notes are sent here, and then sent to Huo Xiu himself from here.
"It's a really nice place."
Even Su Shiyi had to admit that using a teahouse as a place like this is really hidden and not easy to be discovered.But any normal person would never have imagined that such a dilapidated teahouse in the suburbs would undertake the transfer of such a large industry.
Yet it is true.
It can be seen from this that Huo Xiu really deserves to be a mysterious and weird old man, and what he does is also different from any rich man.
And soon, Su Shiyi knew more differences.
But it turns out that at this transit point, no one has seen Huo Xiu, let alone the appearance of his residence.
After a lot of effort, Zhongyuan Yidianhong only asked one sentence from the owner of the teahouse, that is, "This month's silver has been taken away today."
In other words, if they wanted to hear about Huo Xiu, they would have to wait for the next month.
Unable to bear it, Su Shiyi asked, "Could it be that there wasn't one time that you sent it on your own initiative?" Her tone was very cold, and her eyes were sharp, as if she could read people's hearts.
The owner of the teahouse shook his head again and again, "I'm telling the truth."
As if afraid that the two of them would not believe it, the owner of the teahouse couldn't help explaining in detail: "Boss Huo has always used this method to handle affairs, and someone will come to us with his note to collect the account books and money." In the end, he added, "The time of that person coming every month is not fixed, sometimes it is the first day of the junior high school, sometimes it is the fifteenth day, and other times are even more possible."
But today, the other party just came here and took the money from yesterday.
And the next bank note and account book will be sent to this teahouse until yesterday next month.And the other party didn't arrive on the same day, maybe the next day, maybe ten days, and the longest time was half a month.In other words, they thought it would take a month to wait, which was already the best situation.
This Huo Xiu was indeed a mysterious and weird old man, Su Shiyi already had a premonition.
I'm afraid that even his most trusted subordinates may not necessarily know his whereabouts! ! !
As for the coincidence of Xue Bing and Erniang's shoes, Miss Su didn't really care much.
One is that today's shoes are not as modern as players say, and there are only a few styles and colors, so the possibility of bumping into them is very high.Even if it wasn't for the strangeness of Xue Bing wearing white clothes and red shoes, she might not have noticed this at all, not to mention that the other party's martial arts are not very good, Su Shiyi is actually not afraid that she has something to do with Er Niang.
