"Who is the Wang Po you are talking about?" Lu Zhizhang asked.
Facing Lu Zhizhang's inquiry, the young boss only said tremblingly, "Po Wang is the old woman who runs the teahouse opposite."
After saying this, the young boss just pointed his finger in the direction of a stall set up next to a noodle shop opposite.
It was close to the river, and there was a gentle breeze. A large umbrella blocked most of the sunlight, and there were simply some tables, chairs, and stools placed under the umbrella.
If the traders and footmen walking back and forth are tired, they will rest here. Of course, some of them will also spend a few pennies to buy a bowl of herbal tea to relieve the heat.
Looking at this stall was an old woman with a bloated figure and a wrinkled face.
However, the old woman loves to laugh and seems to be very kind.
Seeing that Lu Zhizhang noticed the old lady, the little boss whispered, "This old lady is Mrs. Wang. He has set up a stall opposite to sell herbal tea, and he also does some work as a matchmaker for others. What does he do in his daily life?" We usually go to her for things that are hard to come forward and need someone to facilitate. This mother-in-law is also reliable, so when we see her, we will trust her more. I really didn’t expect that this mother-in-law would cheat me. A big one."
After the young boss said this, he only glanced up at Lu Zhizhang secretly. However, Lu Zhizhang just looked silent at the moment. After a moment, he said to the people around him, "Go and call that woman over."
After receiving Lu Zhizhang's instructions, the secret guard quickly ran to the small tea stall.
Seeing the old woman, the secret guard only said to the old woman, "Are you the Wang Po?"
Wang Po, who was making herbal tea in front of a small stove, immediately stood up and said, "I am."
After she finished speaking, she looked at the young man again. She saw that he was handsome and well-dressed, and he seemed to be a good young man. Although I don’t know him, I feel like he could be a matchmaker.
Therefore, the old woman's face was filled with smiles: "Brother, what do you want from me?"
Faced with Wang Po's active inquiry, although she didn't know why Wang Po was laughing, the secret guard still said expressionlessly, "My master has invited me."
"Your master?" Wang Po was a little surprised.
The secret guard pointed to the tavern opposite.
As soon as she saw the tavern, the expression on Wang Po's face immediately changed.
Wang Po had just seen clearly everything that had just happened on the opposite side.
And there is government involvement.
Wang Po's intuition was that something was wrong, so she immediately said, "Old lady, I still need to look at the stove! I don't have time to get there."
However, when the secret guard heard this, he directly threw a piece of silver to the person sitting next to him.
"You watch the stove for her."
Upon hearing this, the guest naturally said "Okay" happily.
Mrs. Wang looked at the secret guard with a sad look on her face. This young man is good at everything, but he has a bad brain. He can't give this money to anyone who is drinking tea.
If he gave her the money, she might just close the door and follow him. After all, she might not be able to earn so much in a day.
So when she saw the secret guard giving the money to him, Mrs. Wang hesitated and refused to leave.
When the secret guard saw Wang Po's attitude, he couldn't help but said, "Didn't I ask someone to help you look after the stove? Why don't you want to leave?"
Hearing what the secret guard said, Mrs. Wang said angrily, "I'm leaving, who will take care of my business?"
After saying this, Mrs. Wang only glanced at the secret guard. Seeing that the secret guard took out the money and was about to ask others to help her take care of the business, the old woman immediately interrupted the secret guard very sadly: "Don't find it for me." People are watching, isn’t it enough that you gave me money to make up for my losses?”
After hearing what Mrs. Wang said, the secret guard thought it was very reasonable, so after thinking about it, the secret guard just handed the money to Mrs. Wang.
The money that Mrs. Wang had received seemed not enough. She just said to the guest who had just received the money, "You are no longer needed here. Please quickly take out the ingot of silver and give it to me."
After saying this, Mrs. Wang even took action herself. The guest also came from a poor background and usually
You can't make this much money in a day by pulling trucks and moving goods, so the customer just refused to hand over the money easily.
"You, Mrs. Wang, are so unreasonable! This little brother clearly said that this money was for me, but now that it is in my pocket, it is my money. Why do you want to rob it!"
After hearing the man's words, he only described himself as the one who came to rob, Mrs. Wang was very unhappy.
"I'm here to rob him? Isn't he giving you the money just because you want to help look after the herbal tea? Now that I don't even see the stall, and the herbal tea doesn't need to be burned, what are you doing with it? I think you are the one who gets it for free. Where’s the money?”
After hearing Mrs. Wang's words, the man felt somewhat unhappy in his heart.
So the two of them didn't recognize each other. They started arguing, and then they even started fighting.
The two immediately started to disagree with each other, and the secret guard obviously did not expect that things would develop to this point.
So he immediately stopped him and said, "Stop fighting! Stop fighting!"
After saying this, he only tried to separate the two people quickly.
But Mrs. Wang is not someone who is so easy to give up. She cannot tolerate this money getting into the hands of others.
So Mrs. Wang waited until she took away the ingot of silver from the guest who had just entered, and then she happily followed the secret guard to the tavern opposite.
The customer who had his money robbed was shouting curses on the street.
But Mrs. Wang didn't intend to pay attention to him.
Then Mrs. Wang happily followed the secret guard to the tavern. Seeing that the owner of the tavern was also there, Mrs. Wang said hello in surprise, "Boss Liu, are you here too?"
Upon hearing Mrs. Wang's greeting, Boss Liu immediately complained in a low voice, "Stop talking, you are really cheating me!"
Mrs. Wang didn't understand what happened, so she immediately asked, "What's wrong? Why did I trick you?"
Boss Liu didn't say anything after hearing this. There was nothing he could say in this situation. Mrs. Wang was too short-sighted.
On the other side, the secret guard only said to Lu Zhizhang, "Sir, I have brought him back for you."
Lu Zhizhang just nodded slightly when he heard this.
Then their eyes looked at the old woman Wang at the same time.
Mrs. Wang was a little embarrassed for a while when they were watching her.
Fortunately, Lu Zhizhang spoke first at this time, "Are you the tea seller?"
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Wang immediately nodded and said, "I am."
Lu Zhizhang nodded with satisfaction after hearing this.
Then he pointed at Boss Liu standing aside and said, "Do you know this person?"
After hearing what Lu Zhizhang said, Mrs. Wang murmured in her heart, why was Lu Zhizhang asking such nonsense?
Despite the murmuring in her heart, Mrs. Wang still nodded honestly.
After Lu Zhizhang asked two routine questions, he began to look sharp.
"Did you help rent out Boss Liu's shop yesterday?"
When Mrs. Wang heard this, she just nodded honestly.
"I helped push it out."
When Lu Zhizhang heard this, he nodded again and said, "As for your patrons, do you know their names?"
As soon as she heard this question, Mrs. Wang was dumbfounded, "I don't know their specific names, they didn't leave their names."
Upon hearing what Mrs. Wang said, Boss Liu immediately said angrily, "That's not what you told me before. What you said was clearly that those people are the daughters of your distant relatives."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Wang immediately said, "I said that because I wanted to promote this business."
When Lu Zhizhang heard this, he immediately said, "Then don't you need to know the guest's information?"
Wang Po immediately chuckled after hearing this, "It's better to know something. It's not bad if you don't understand. As long as you give me money and have money as a guarantee, I won't ask where the customer is from."
Hearing what Mrs. Wang said, Boss Liu became even more angry, "You are really obsessed with this."
. "
When Mrs. Wang heard this, she said, "You can't make money, you bastard. What's more, Boss Liu, you also took the money yourself. This money is more than double your daily income."
Boss Liu just sighed when he heard this. He was also obsessed. If he was involved, he wouldn't be able to get out even if he spent ten times the money.
Therefore, Boss Liu stopped saying anything, and Mrs. Wang said to Lu Zhizhang, "Sir, do you have anything else to ask?"
Lu Zhizhang just asked without giving up, "Do you really don't know who they are?"
Mrs. Wang just shook her head like a rattle.
"Of course I don't know."
Lu Zhizhang couldn't help but sigh when he saw Mrs. Wang acting like this.
He originally thought he could follow the clues and find clues here, but he didn't expect that the clues ended here.
Mrs. Wang didn't care so much. Seeing that Lu Zhizhang didn't say anything anymore, she then said, "Sir, can I go?"
Lu Zhizhang was about to wave for them to leave, but then he thought about it and immediately said with a straight face, "Let's go? Where do you think you can go? Do you know what a big mistake you made!"
Hearing Lu Zhizhang's words, Mrs. Wang was a little dumbfounded for a moment. She shook her head and said, "I don't know. Please make it clear."
Lu Zhizhang then said, "The guest you are talking about stole something very important from me and even injured one of my people!"
At the same time, Boss Liu reminded Mrs. Wang, "This is the young minister of Dali Temple."
After hearing that the person in front of her had such a high status, Mrs. Wang finally felt scared.
She immediately said loudly, "Sir, it's unfair. We didn't know about it. Please give us a way to survive."
"You don't know? You are simply helping the evildoer! Do you know how much the trap you set for that woman delayed me?"
"Now you ask questions and you don't know. You tell me you don't know! Can you get my treasure back if you don't know?"
After reprimanding him, Lu Zhizhang just ordered his subordinates, "Come here! Detain these two people!"
After hearing Lu Zhizhang's order, the secret guards immediately prepared to tie up Mrs. Wang and Boss Liu.
The old lady Wang was obviously very frightened. She had never been to the prison, she only knew that it was very scary, so she immediately started shouting.
