Qin Yun waved his hand, and Li Ruyi quickly supported him, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.
In the afternoon, she left the Duke Cheng's Mansion alone, came to the street, and found Chen Laosan who was wandering around.
"Li Li Li Li...Marshal Li!"
Chen Laosan stuttered when he spoke.
Although he loved looking at beautiful women, when he stood in front of Li Ruyi, he didn't dare to look at her too much. Chen Laosan's strong aura made Chen Laosan lower his head unconsciously, showing humility and respect.
Li Ruyi narrowed her eyes and said coldly: "I just went to the inn to see them. The two of them are not there. I suspect that they have other strongholds in the capital. Can you help me find them?"
This was just a simple question. Chen Laosan just said no if he couldn't, and Li Ruyi would not embarrass him, but perhaps due to the pressure of the other party, Chen Laosan nodded hard and said quickly: "Yes! Definitely! But I hope you can give me some time..."
After agreeing, Chen Laosan felt something was wrong.
Where is he going to investigate those two guys?
In fact, Li Ruyi did not want to find him at first, because Chen Laosan was not honest and entrusted him with such an important matter. Li Ruyi was not at ease at all, but helplessly, Qu Yuanning did not want to participate in anything related to Qu Haofeng , even if he knew the place, he couldn't tell her, no matter how much money he had.
As for the other intelligence dealers, Li Ruyi didn't know much about them. After thinking about it, Chen Laosan was the only one.
"Then I'll leave it to you. When it's done, I won't give you any less of the three hundred taels of silver!"
Three hundred taels!
In an instant, Chen Laosan's breathing became heavy.
"Don't worry, Marshal Li, I promise to complete the mission!"
After Li Ruyi left, Chen Laosan showed a reluctant expression on his face.
"Tsk...how do I know where they are?"
He thought for a while and finally decided to take the initiative to come to the door.
Chen Laosan arrived at the inn where Qu Haofeng and Mu Zhong were staying in advance, and waited here for a while before seeing them.
"Huh? Why are you here?"
Qu Haofeng narrowed his eyes and said with some vigilance: "How do you know where the two of us live?"
Seeing his suspicion, Chen Laosan immediately explained: "Boss, have you forgotten? I am an information dealer. I want to know where you two live. Isn't that an easy task? But... don't worry, I have absolutely nothing else. The idea is that I have some information and want to make a deal with you two."
"First of all, what is it about?"
Chen Laosan dispelled Qu Haofeng's doubts in a few words.
He smiled and said, "It's about Li Ruyi. She just found me."
"Why are you looking for me?"
Qu Haofeng asked quickly.
"To be precise, she not only found me, but also many well-known intelligence dealers in the entire capital. How about you pay me a little and I will tell you why she came to me?"
Chen Laosan smiled and said.
"no problem."
Qu Haofeng didn't care at all about the little silver he was given, and threw another fifty taels to Chen Laosan, who rolled his eyes in his heart.
You are stingy, you give me so little every time, you deserve to be plotted by Li Ruyi and Qin Yun.
Thinking this in his heart but not saying it in his mouth, Chen Laosan still had a smile on his face. Then he rolled his eyes and lowered his voice and said: "She came to ask me about the organization. Qin Yun was attacked in the tavern before. It must be you two who did it, right? Don't hide it from me. You can guess whether I'm stupid or not. Don't worry, I'm very strict with my mouth and will never tell anyone."
Qu Haofeng hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
"Then what? What exactly is she asking about?"
"I just want to ask if you have seen any suspicious people recently. If you have seen anyone, let me tell her immediately, and tell her the specific location... I will probably kill you all..."
Mu Zhong sneered behind Qu Haofeng.
"This is good. We have alerted the enemy. What should we do now?"
"With Li Ruyi's energy, he will be able to find us here soon!"
"Don't worry."
Qu Haofeng frowned, then with a flash of his eyes, he asked: "If you are asked to take action, can you defeat Li Ruyi?"
"I can't guarantee that. I have never met that woman, let alone fought with her... Wait, what do you want to do?"
Mu Zhong's face turned pale.
"Hmph, if you can't kill Qin Yun, then kill Li Ruyi."
Qu Haofeng was so bold. As soon as he said these words, Chen Laosan almost ran away in fear.
"Well, Chen Laosan, I'll give you another fifty taels of silver, and you can lead her to the alley across the street, and we can ambush her. Can we do that?"
There was a look of hesitation on Chen Laosan's face.
"Boss, it's not like you don't know. I'm in the intelligence business. If I sell false information and Li Ruyi is injured or even killed, Xia Zi will definitely not let me go. And I've done it here. After so many years of business, aren't you... just destroying my brand? I can't agree."
Qu Haofeng looked normal. He thought Chen Laosan's thoughts were normal. If the other party agreed simply and neatly, he would be suspicious.
So he gave Chen Laosan another fifty taels of silver and said in a deep voice: "Just this time, we promise not to betray you."
Chen Laosan reluctantly accepted it.
In one morning, he earned four hundred taels of silver.
At night, in the dead of night, Chen Laosan came to an open place. After confirming that no one was following him around, he sneaked outside the Duke Cheng's Mansion. Li Ruyi had been waiting outside the door for a long time.
"Marshal Li, they took the bait."
Then, Chen Laosan told Li Ruyi the conversation between himself and Qu Haofeng, and then he said: "They will ambush you there. If possible... I hope you will not show it so obviously, I am really afraid that they will find me here."
Profits are often accompanied by dangers.
Chen Laosan decided that after finishing this job, he would leave the capital immediately, taking the nearly one thousand taels of silver he had saved, and leave the capital. He could go anywhere, marry a wife, and give birth to a fat boy. Live your life peacefully.
Li Ruyi nodded and said calmly: "I understand, don't worry. By the way, don't let Qin Yun know what happened today."
"Yes, don't worry, I will never betray you, but... although they took the bait, I still don't know where their hidden stronghold is."
"It's okay, you can go back."
Li Ruyi didn't care much, waved his hand and said.
Chen Laosan's ability to achieve this level surprised Li Ruyi.
