Chapter 225: Problems with Fuyi Manor
Chapter 225: Problems with Fuyi Manor
Fuyi Village.
A carriage entered the manor smoothly under the protection of six bodyguards and went all the way to Nanzhuang. Li Cunxi and Wu Yanhao sat beside the carriage, glancing around from time to time.
The rebels chose to trade in Hu silk under false names, and when they arrived at Fuyi Village, they had to settle down in a silk shop. There was only one silk shop in this village, and Li Cunxi planned to try his luck in the silk shop.
There are many businesses in Nanzhuang, and all those passing by are businessmen. After asking someone, Li Cunxi got the route to Zhao's Silk Shop.
Arriving at the Zhao Family Silk Shop, Hu Jinghui, disguised as a bodyguard, dismounted and walked in, saying loudly:
"Which one is the shopkeeper? Our escort agency is here to deliver the lake silk!!"
The shopkeeper, who had been walking in the backyard for a long time, came out happily as if a long drought had finally brought him rain, and said with a smile:
"This gentleman is really full of heroic spirit. He shouted loudly and Zhao could hear it clearly in the backyard!"
"I wonder whose escort you took, and whose advice you followed, to come here to sell Hu silk?"
Hu Jinghui glared with his eyes wide open and took three steps forward, forcing the shopkeeper to retreat repeatedly.
"Asshole, if I knew, would I have told you in advance?"
"No, hero, what are you talking about? Didn't the person who hired you to escort him reveal his name?"
The shopkeeper had a puzzled look on his face and leaned against the counter. He was really frightened.
"Our escort agency accepted this escort. The guest with the Land of Abundance accent left us some silver and told us nothing else. He just asked us to deliver it to Zhao's Silk Shop in Fuyi Village, Yongchang County, Luoyang, Luozhou. It came from a long way, so you should take it quickly!"
"Hero, are you sure that the customer has a Sichuan accent?" The shopkeeper suddenly raised his eyebrows.
"That's right!" Hu Jinghui said loudly.
"Did he say anything else?"
"This guest is just like you, the shopkeeper. He is also very troublesome! He brought his own guards, but when we reached Yongchang County, he asked us to come and see him off by ourselves, saying that he had to meet someone and it was inconvenient for him to come with us!"
"That's right, it's him, hahaha." The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Hero, you've worked hard all the way. You should take a rest when you get to Fuyi Manor."
"Why rest? That customer is too troublesome. He asked us to transport the weapons for them again. He said there are still many weapons that are difficult to bring out directly, and he still wants us to go."
As Hu Jinghui spoke, he paid attention to the shopkeeper's expression.
After he mentioned weapons, the shopkeeper immediately became cautious and looked around from time to time.
Following the shopkeeper's line of sight, Hu Jinghui accurately discovered the peculiarities of the surroundings. In the lobby of the silk shop, most of the people were businessmen who did not look like businessmen. Although a few burly men at the edge were sitting, their hands unconsciously touched their waists.
"Shopkeeper, what are you looking at?"
Hu Jinghui's face, which looked intimidating without him getting angry, suddenly revealed an extremely strange smile.
Although he was asking the shopkeeper, his hand had already grabbed the shopkeeper's sleeve.
"Hero, hero."
The shopkeeper came to his senses and said hastily:
"What are you talking about, hero? Since a customer asked your escort agency to deliver the goods, then naturally we will accept it as a class. Hahahahahahahahaha, please take a seat. I'll go get you a cup of tea."
Hu Jinghui held the shopkeeper tightly and said with a smile:
"Instead of running over to pour me some tea, why don't you check the darts to see if there are any problems first? If there are any problems, they can be solved in time, right?"
The shopkeeper wanted to struggle free, but no matter how hard he tried, Hu Jinghui's big hands seemed to be firmly embedded in his flesh.
The men around noticed the shopkeeper's situation and stood up at the same time, staring at Hu Jinghui.
Even the strong men who were also guests stood up unconsciously and looked at Hu Jinghui.
"Boss, it seems like none of your guys are good people. If they hadn't killed anyone, they definitely wouldn't have that kind of look in their eyes."
Hu Jinghui grabbed the shopkeeper's arm and forced him to walk out of the silk shop with him.
At this moment, outside the silk shop, Li Cunxi also noticed something strange.
Wu Yanhao whispered: "Did you find anything particularly strange?"
"You mean these merchants have been walking back and forth on this street for several times?" Li Cunxi frowned and looked at a dark-skinned burly man whom he had seen three or four times. "This man has walked beside me several times."
"It's not just him. Most of the people here are walking back and forth, from the beginning to the end of the street, and from the end of the street to here."
Inside the lobby of the silk shop, Hu Jinghui held the shopkeeper's hand and walked out step by step.
The waiters and guests also followed him out carefully, fearing that Hu Jinghui would accidentally strangle the shopkeeper to death.
"Cunxi, General Hu came out holding a middle-aged man."
Li Yuanfang, who was always paying attention to the situation around him, quickly reminded Hu Jinghui after seeing him go out.
"It seems that there are results today."
Li Cunxi let out a breath. At this moment, most of the merchants on the street stopped. Their eyes passed over everyone else and fell on Hu Jinghui at the same time.
These people took out their weapons and crowded towards Zhao's Silk Shop.
In the silk shop, the shop assistants and guests who followed out also took out their weapons.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Hu Jinghui drew his sword and put it on the shopkeeper's neck.
"Stop it all!"
The shopkeeper gritted his teeth and shouted:
"Don't listen to him. This bastard is definitely not the escort hired by Old Yu. Take your weapons and kill him for me!"
Hu Jinghui didn't waste any time. He reached out and wiped it lightly, and a line of blood appeared on the shopkeeper's neck.
"I'm warning you, this is only the first time. If you dare to make noise again, I'll kill you first."
Hu Jinghui dragged the shopkeeper all the way to the carriage.
The merchants on the road have revealed their true colors. Except for a very small number of real merchants, the rest are fakes. They all hold weapons and have fierce eyes, and they have definitely seen blood.
"Cunxi, it's confirmed that there are problems with these people, but I don't know who they are."
Hu Jinghui had already put down his knife, but immediately another knife was placed on the shopkeeper's neck.
Yang Fang rode his horse forward and put the knife to the shopkeeper's neck.
"Who are you?" the shopkeeper asked with a look of grief and indignation on his face.
"You should be honored. The one who came into the room and kidnapped you is the chief escort of our Yongshou Escort Agency." Li Cunxi sighed, "Even if the deal fails, there is still friendship. You actually want someone to kill us. You really want to die!"
"What, Yongshou Escort Agency?" The shopkeeper was stunned.
"Are you f*cking blind? The flag of our Yongshou Escort Agency is still behind us. What the hell are your eyes?"
"Hero, this is a misunderstanding..." The shopkeeper reached out and wiped the non-existent sweat.
"There are your people all over the street, and you still tell me it's a misunderstanding. Sorry, I don't believe it." Li Cunxi smiled cheerfully, "Unless you tell me who you are."
