Chapter 160 The brothel old man

The beauty deliberately made a gesture of reluctance and pretended to be crazy for a long time. Then she went behind the screen and ordered the maid to invite her father-in-law. When she was young, a man wearing a long gown came to the hall from the front courtyard. Although he had a long beard, he looked at her. He did not show his age. After he went up the stairs, he did not enter the hall. He only paid greetings outside the hall and said: "But please give me your instructions!"

The unsealing order said: "I have been nagging for many days, and I feel very uneasy. Now that Mr. Che has been summoned, I have to go. Xinji is taking good care of her and does not want to be embarrassed. But if you need it, you can go to Mr. Che's place."

The father-in-law saluted outside the door and said: "I treat you poorly when you come to visit me. Xinji is young and has no trouble. I hope you will forgive me for any offense I have offended."

Mr. Cheyou didn't want to answer the story, so he stood up directly and went out: "There is a lot of money on the cabinet. I dare you to ask me to go and get it." Regardless of whether the father agreed or not, he just picked up his legs and left. The father hurriedly walked away. Follow him, and you only have time to explain to the kid in front of the door before going out. But Chen Si, who was waiting at the door, saw Mr. Che You coming out, so he naturally followed him.

Mr. Che You went out to the road and said to his father-in-law in a low tone: "How many days and nights did that gentleman stay?"

When the old man heard this, he just said it was for bargaining, and he said truthfully: "The original plan was to stay for one night. But then the army started, and we added three days to stay until now."

Mr. Cheyou said: "Why should I treat you?"

The father-in-law said: "I always respect my guests. I treat each other diligently day and night. I have three meals and two drinks. I don't dare to slow down."

Mr. Cheyou said: "During the war, my father-in-law received guests as usual, and there was a banquet in front of the door. It was really difficult for the host and the guest to be safe."

The father-in-law said: "Your honor is here, I will try my best to keep you safe."

Mr. Cheyou said: "I have no Qin people to ask me about our guests. What can I say?"

The father-in-law said: "I say that I respect guests from far away, but how dare I tell the truth?"

So Mr. Che You knew that this old man knew the true identity of the unsealing officer, and said: "So many people have taken care of me. Two guests came to my door. What's the price?"

The father-in-law felt that Mr. Che You seemed to be very knowledgable and carefree, so he looked over and said: "Xinji is a female from a high-ranking family. She has two envoys every now and then. She has a noble family and never has two attendants. She respects guests and treats her frequently. Therefore, the ear of Rong. During the day, he drinks and eats, and at night, he warms the table, never slacking off."

Mr. Che You also asked carefully: "Who is the one who warms the table?"

The father-in-law looked a little sullen and said: "I wanted to ask the head of the neighboring courtyard to honor the guests and choose their own maid. I have no choice but to do it with all my strength. This girl has not mastered the alchemy method, how can she be a human being!"

Mr. Che You didn't expect such a thing to happen. He felt embarrassed and said: "But it shouldn't be done. I would like to give it generously!"

The father-in-law's face immediately lit up with joy and he said: "First I have to serve a noble man, and then I get a generous gift from my husband. It's my great luck as a little girl."

Mr. Cheyou knew that he had fallen into a trap, but he had no choice but to say: "Second Master often comes to the door, how can he be so lucky that the elixir path is not clear?"

The old man looked around and said: "Your Majesty often comes to Pengmen, and this is the first time I've met Mr. Wei."

Mr. Cheyou stared at his father-in-law sternly and said, "Do you know everything?"

The old father-in-law's expression did not change, but he also deliberately looked back, lowered his head and said: "We are regular customers, and we are also nobles in the city, so we don't know. Sir, I have no worries. If I have second thoughts, the two princes will never sit here peacefully." After saying this, The two of them had already walked out of Huafangfang Gate, and when they saw a Qin man patrolling the road, they did not dare to follow this topic any further.

Mr. Cheyou had no choice but to return to the business and asked, "What's the price?"

The old man looked at Mr. Cheyou again and said, "I don't dare to pay twice. The high price is a thousand yuan a day. The second man patronizes me for three days, and the total is 6,000 yuan. In times of war and chaos, you can't be happy if you don't treat each other well. Sir, I just need to pay one gold."

That’s it.”

The father-in-law directly discounted the price, which made it difficult for Mr. Che You to bargain, but he still said with a merchant's mentality: "One gold is a lot, so a little discount is okay!"

The old man said: "Sir, please don't be pretentious. In order to maintain stability at this time, how much does one gold cost? Not much!"

Mr. Che You was also very wise and responded: "That's very good!"

At this time, Chen Si quietly pulled Mr. Cheyou's sleeve. Mr. Cheyou turned around slightly and saw Chen Si's eyes staring ahead, so he followed Chen Si's gaze and saw the end of the bluestone road.

Under the tree, there were several people sitting in twos and threes. There was a man in a long gown, who seemed to be Mr. Guo from Mr. Wei's house. Of course, Chen Si didn't know Mr. Guo, which meant that he knew several other people... They

It's Wei Wuzu! Seeing the plump chests of those men in short shirts, Mr. Che You still doesn't understand. Only Wei Wuzu can be so strong.

Mr. Cheyou felt reassured. There were Wei Wu soldiers at the intersection, as well as guests from Wei Gongzi's house. This power must be extraordinary, and there may be hidden power somewhere. However,...

If according to the previous plan, Ling and Wei would naturally return with Daliang Mipu's ship. This does not seem to require such a powerful force. But can it really be so smooth?

Since Mr. Che You couldn't say much, he had to make secret calculations in his mind. Things developed very smoothly. According to Zhang Lu's plan, Mr. Che You only said that he was sent by General Mangmao to take the second Duke back to China. As expected of the two of them, except for him,

He expressed concern about whether he could leave safely and made no other demands. It seems that although he has been in the gentle countryside for these three days, he is still worried. The Qin army failed to capture the highest official of Kai Feng. This is clear.

If the people of Qin don't take this seriously, no one will believe it. On the surface, the people of Qin are calm, but who knows.

Suddenly, Mr. Cheyou seemed to remember something and asked his father-in-law: "Who are you following, Mr. Er?"

The father-in-law said: "I came to the shop in disguise, why do I need to follow you!"

Mr. Cheyou didn't believe it and asked: "The second prince is so noble, how can he not have even one or two relatives to follow him?"

The father-in-law said: "I have never seen it before, it is not the only one like this."

Something was abnormal! Mr. Cheyou suddenly became nervous. He glanced at his father-in-law, who actually looked back at him. Mr. Cheyou made up his mind.

The rice shop is in the front square. Mr. Cheyou turned around and entered the rice shop. Mr. Li, who was sitting in the cabinet, stood up and came over: "Mr. Che, everything goes well!"

Mr. Cheyou cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Li, everything goes well! This is the father-in-law of Huafang!"

The old man also held his hands in front of his chest and said: "It's rare on the cabinet, I bet it's new!"

Mr. Cheyou said: "Mr. Li, on the big beam cabinet, I am in the same boat with someone to deliver food here."

The father-in-law said: "You dare to go down from the beam, but you are really blind. There are many people in the shop who come and go. Sir, if you are interested, why not go there!"

Mr. Li said: "But it's Shaoxian."

The old father-in-law said: "Why do you have so little time? It must be a small place in Qifeng, not a big city. It's hard to find someone you like."

Mr. Li laughed, but said to Mr. Che You: "Sir, I will be gone for half a day. I dare you to go gently."

Mr. Cheyou did not hesitate, but took out the jade pendant from his arms and said: "I am in a hurry and my money is tight. I have a jade pendant now. I am willing to pay some money from the counter. I dare to ask Mr. Li to be the winner."

Mr. Li said: "It's just money, why do you need so much? If you need it, you can just pay it from the counter."

However, Mr. Che You solemnly handed the jade pendant with both hands to Mr. Li's hand and said: "I don't dare to work with a little money. But there are many uses, so I hope you can speak kindly." He tapped his free little finger on the back of Mr. Li's hand.

Mr. Li seemed to have some realization and asked blankly: "How much do I need?"
