Broken, he became a fugitive.
Han Dongwen felt a chill on his spine, and his first reaction was to prepare to run away.
He quickly moved away from the railing and sat back on the chair. When he looked up, he found that Lychee in front of him was looking at him with wide eyes.
Oops.
Their eyes met and they said nothing.
"Ahem, just now..."
Han Dongwen endured the embarrassment and had too many questions running through his mind.
Robbery? The kidnapping escort absconded?
The West Asian man mentioned by the law officers and soldiers should be Robert. He and he were obviously doing good deeds by beating the river god, so why did he become a robber and abscond?
He looked up at Lychee in front of him with numbness, fearing that she would suddenly stand up and call out.
If Lychee really made any moves, I was afraid that I would have to strike first and shut her up.
What Han Dongwen didn't expect was that Lychee just sat quietly beside him without saying a word.
"Sir, did you drink well?"
The waiter's voice suddenly came from behind Han Dongwen. He had climbed up the steps from downstairs to the second floor and came to Han Dongwen's table.
"..."
Han Dongwen frowned slightly, nodded slightly, and pretended to glance at the scene downstairs inadvertently. However, he saw that the three officers and soldiers of the Justice Department did not actually enter Yihong Building to search, but just pushed out the door. Outside, I went to the street to continue looking for people.
Why is this?
How could these private guys from Yihonglou really stop the National Law Department's manpower?
Perhaps seeing Han Dongwen's doubts, the smile on the waiter's face became a little more enthusiastic: "Guests, don't worry. Once you enter Yihong Building, you will be a guest of Yihong Building. Even if something big happens, our Yihong Building will still be there." I won’t miss your pleasure, sir. Please feel free to drink. Is Litchi going well with you?”
Han Dongwen came to his senses and nodded quickly: "Very good, very good."
"That would be great. Sir, your guest room is ready. If it is convenient for us, please allow me to move the food and wine to your room. You can rest and wait for the time when the flowers are blooming to come downstairs. , wouldn’t it be more beautiful?”
While the waiter was talking, several waiters came around and started to move the luggage and food and drinks for Han Dongwen without saying a word.
Is this... the people from Yihonglou covering up for me?
If he had become the inexplicable fugitive who robbed the escort, it would not be a wise move to show his face in a place like the lobby. Han Dongwen nodded, and under the leadership of a group of waiters, Lizhi walked into Yaya holding his arm. between.
"It's done, sir, if it's convenient for us, could you please tie up this guest room with the food and drinks first?"
The waiter finished tidying up the elegant guest room. The size of this room is not much different from the one designed by His Highness in the palace, but the business philosophy is quite different - the room is slightly smaller in size, but has quite high-end decoration and decoration. It is not Han Dongwen Originally designed as an express hotel room.
"It's easy to say, thank you for your hard work."
Han Dongwen reached into his arms and weighed his purse.
He has a net worth of ten gold dollars, which still gives him some confidence.
He remembered the price on the menu. No matter how you looked at it, this meal was only fifty or sixty silver dollars. If he didn't order lychees to accompany the wine, he would probably only need ten silver dollars to get it.
Ten gold dollars should be enough for him to stay comfortably in a restaurant like Yihonglou for dozens of days.
"Thank you for your patronage. There are a total of eight gold dollars and forty-eight silver dollars in your account. This is your first time here. I will give you a zero, and eight gold dollars will be enough."
The waiter's eyes turned into slits when he smiled. Han Dongwen was stunned and couldn't help blurting out:
"What? Eight gold dollars?!"
"It's eight gold dollars."
The waiter’s smile did not change.
“How much does this chicken and fish cost?”
Han Dongwen suddenly sat upright. Not only did he become a fugitive, but he also encountered a black shop?
"A white-cut chicken costs seven silver coins, and a sea fish costs seven silver coins." The waiter replied calmly.
"That's fourteen silver coins, leaving seven gold coins and eighty-six silver coins, all of them are this girl?"
Han Dongwen looked sideways and saw Li Zhi's face turn red. He slightly covered his face with the small ball fan in his hand: "Young Master is joking. Bing Xue is obviously smart, but he still wants to tease Li Zhi like this."
"Of course not."
The waiter smiled and took off the handkerchief on his shoulder: "Miss Litchi's reward is only thirty silver dollars from you. How can the Yihong Building service be the same as the Shanye Black Shop?"
"Then why did you collect these eight gold dollars?" Han Dongwen was already a little angry, and he couldn't help but start a confrontation.
"So that you can still sit here."
The waiter stood up straight and respectfully extended his hand in the direction of Han Dongwen's "long luggage" - wrapped in it was naturally the Mingbo Spear that Yang Kai gave him.
"The guest officer is not a short-sighted person, and he also knows that the guest officer is what the Haimen City Law Department is looking for, but the guest officer is currently a guest of Yihong Tower, and it is naturally the duty of Yihong Tower to serve the guest officer well."
"The Rebirth of Financial Giants"
The waiter smiled and said: "With these eight gold coins, the guest can safely travel around Haizhou without worrying about the troubles from over there. This is the guarantee given by Yihong Tower to the guest. Of course, if the guest has no intention of going out, Yihonglou will never force money, and will only charge according to the menu. You can still eat food and wine here, but after leaving Yihonglou, Yihonglou will not be able to help guests. "
After he finished speaking, he bowed respectfully, but he really didn't mean to force him at all.
If these eight gold dollars are paid, the arrest of the Justice Department can be written off?
If he didn't pay these eight gold dollars, Yihong Tower could still protect him from eating and drinking here without reporting it to the Justice Department, but it would just have nothing to do with him after he left Yihong Tower?
Han Dongwen took a deep breath, opened his wallet, grabbed ten golden round coins in his hand, arranged eight of them on the table, and looked up at the waiter:
"Help me also thank your shopkeepers. If I have the chance, I will definitely visit."
The waiter smiled restrainedly and politely, and stepped forward to accept the eight gold coins: "Guest, don't worry, a hundred flowers are blooming tonight, and our shopkeeper will naturally come. If your guest leaves an impression on the shopkeeper, we will meet each other naturally." fate."
"Since I have collected the guest's money, I also ask the guest to rest assured and rest here for a while. From tomorrow on, the Haizhou Justice Department will no longer pursue the guest."
After he finished speaking, he clasped his hands in a salute and respectfully led the people out of the private room.
Han Dongwen and Li Zhi were left alone, and they started talking again after a while.
"Young Master is a wealthy man. He impressed Li Zhi very much. He will definitely meet the shopkeeper."
Lychee spoke softly, with the smile on her face unchanged. It was obviously not the first time she had seen such a thing.
Han Dongwen smiled bitterly in his heart, "generous", referring to the fact that he took ten gold coins with him when he went out. After eating a boiled chicken and steamed fish, he only had two gold coins left. He already had enough money in his pocket.
But these eight gold coins at least showed one thing, that is, the power behind Yihong Tower must be quite powerful, and he was able to influence the judicial department to track down the key criminal who had escaped.
The usual guess is that the Department of National Law and Yihonglou are colluding with each other, or it is simply a trick of one's own left hand to the right hand.
But just now when the officers and soldiers of the Law Department were in Yihong Building, they looked like they were incompatible with the guys here. Why is this?
Thinking of this, Han Dongwen was heartbroken, gritted his teeth calmly, slapped the remaining two gold coins in his hand on the table, and looked up at Lychee:
"Miss Litchi, now that you have seen that my handle has fallen into Yihonglou's hands, you might as well tell me about Yihonglou's abilities, right?"
