Looking at the eight thousand taels in front of him, Yang Li was in a daze.
These are much more than what he earned with his life.
It’s enough for his wife’s medication for a year.
He raised his head and looked at Jiang Chen in confusion.
"Aren't you afraid that I will run away with the money?"
"Can you? Can you?"
Jiang Chen's two questions left Yang Li speechless.
Yeah, can he?
Looking around the house, although it is simple and shabby, it is warm and cozy.
His son's company every day, his wife's company, hot meals every night, those two pairs of expectant eyes, and the words his wife said late at night...
"You'd better stop going out and working for others. How about we live a normal life!"
"Don't worry, as long as your illness is cured, I will wash my hands in a golden basin and find a place where we can live a life of men farming and women weaving."
"It's all my fault...I caused you trouble..."
There was also the twinkling tears in the eyes that I accidentally glimpsed.
Looking at Yang Li who was in a daze, Jiang Chen thought he was worried about an accident on the road, so he whispered.
"I'm just looking for you to have an extra layer of protection to prevent accidents."
Yang Li raised his hand to signal him to stop talking.
"The bigger the storm, the more money. I understand this, so you don't need to say anything more, just tell me the departure time."
"Also..."
At this point, Yang Li began to hesitate.
"But it doesn't matter."
"If something unexpected happens to me this time, I hope you can use all my belongings to find a quiet place for them, and don't tell them about me."
From Yang Li's eyes, Jiang Chen could clearly see his hope.
It takes a lot of courage to entrust your family to a stranger.
Jiang Chen refused without any hesitation.
"Stop it, I won't handle this matter. I am cold-blooded and ruthless by nature. It's better to find someone else to do things like this. Besides, it's very expensive to ask me to handle matters. How much do you plan to pay?"
After hearing his words, Yang Lifei was not angry, but laughed.
"Hahaha!"
Jiang Chen looked at him in surprise.
Is this guy suddenly crazy?
People who have never heard of Da Jing have this problem besides being unruly.
It seems that people in Dajing still have a lot of room to explore.
"Dr. Jiang, do you know what your biggest shortcoming is?"
"Weaknesses? This young master is perfect." Jiang Chen said shamelessly.
How could he have shortcomings?
"Your shortcoming is that what you say is completely different from what you think in your heart. To put it simply, it's just nonsense, but you have a warm heart."
"Hey, how did such words come out of your mouth?"
Nonsense, and a warm heart.
this……
Do they go together?
"I didn't expect that you are not only good at assassination, but also able to read minds. Guess what I am thinking now."
Seeing that Jiang Chen was starting to act rogue, Yang Li curled his lips.
Illusion, it must have been an illusion just now.
This is a sword man!
"Since the cooperation between us has been reached, I am now considered your employer, so can you talk to me about some things?" Jiang Chen did not continue to argue with him. This guy is simply an old man and is boring.
"Stop it, you already said that the money you gave me just now is for cooperation. Asking questions is another matter."
"Fuck me!"
Jiang Chen instantly became energetic.
This was the first time I saw a guy who was more cunning than Chu Jiang'er.
I'm sorry I sympathized with you just now.
Pooh!
I wish you never have enough chopsticks to eat!
"Is ten taels enough?"
"That depends on what you want to ask about."
I'm so cute!
"Who ordered you to kill those spies from the enemy country last night?"
"how do you know!"
Now it was Yang Li's turn to be shocked.
He didn't remember mentioning it to anyone.
The only one who knows is the young minister of Dali Temple who fought with him last night. Could it be possible...
Thinking of this, he looked at Jiang Chen with a bit of confusion in his eyes.
Who is Jiang Chen!
He actually knew the secret of Dali Temple.
He didn't believe that he could find out casually on the street.
"You don't need me to know, you just need to tell me who asked you to do it."
"We killers have rules. The employer's information must not be leaked. Otherwise, retribution will be meted out, so... we need to pay more."
Holy shit!
Add money to lay people.
You should have said it earlier, it's such a bunch of nonsense.
Leave this pile of passives aside.
Plus one for those who are not serious in Da Jing.
"Fifty taels, that's enough!"
"In fact, I do not know."
"You're just kidding me."
Jiang Chen was about to take back the silver on the table, but he never thought that Yang Li was much faster than him, and he pocketed the silver in just an instant.
I'll wipe it.
I have practiced it, and I have practiced it at this glance.
"Doctor Jiang, please don't worry. Although I don't know who the employer is, I have information about his identity. Do you want to hear it?"
"More money?"
"free!"
"OK!"
Jiang Chen happily agreed, he liked free of charge the most.
No, I seemed to have paid just now.
Blanch!
"What is this? You couldn't just pick it up casually on the roadside to fool me, right?"
Jiang Chen picked up something that Yang Li threw on the table, half of which looked like a jade pendant.
With this little piece of shit, if you want to use it to find someone in Dajing, it's not as reliable as finding a needle in a haystack.
"This is no ordinary thing."
"What's so special?" Jiang Chen looked at Yang Li dubiously.
He planned to see what else this guy could come up with.
"This is the golden tassel on the jade pendant worn by the deputy lieutenant of the Jingguo Infantry Army."
"Lieutenant of the Infantry?"
When Yang Li said this, Jiang Chen seemed to think that he had seen similar things in Xiao Chuang.
However, at that time, he thought that Xiao Chuang was hiding a romantic young man under his wild appearance.
It turns out to be a status symbol.
"As an official of Jingguo, you don't know this?"
"Who told you that I am an official of Jingguo?" Jiang Chen said in surprise.
Does he look like a leader?
"Then how did you know what happened last night? No one else knew about it except the people in Dali Temple."
"To tell you the truth, Zhang Ziang, the young minister of Dali Temple, is my younger brother."
"cut!"
Obviously, Yang Li didn't believe it.
"Anyway, this is what the man left that night. If you want to know his identity, go and trace it."
Looking at the golden tassel in his hand.
Jiang Chen suddenly felt like he had been cheated.
You, pay back the money!
After a while, there was movement outside the courtyard.
Yang Li's wife walked in carrying a chicken and some fresh vegetables.
"Why did you buy chicken?"
"This is your first friend, so of course you have to treat him well." Yang Li's wife said while cleaning up, "Over the years, we have been a family of three with no relatives or friends. It's not easy to have one , you have to be good."
The two of them looked at the busy figure together.
Jiang Chen came to Yang Li and gently put his arm on his shoulder.
"What a heartwarming scene."
Yang Li raised his head, glanced at him, and said.
"What does it have to do with you."
Then he smiled and stepped forward to help.
