The "Cloud Car" set off slowly and headed east, heading straight for Lin'an.
There are two strings of lanterns hanging on the car, each string has four lanterns.
The lantern shines on the road, and the road is endless.
"To untie the bell, you must tie the bell. There are some complicated things. Although it may seem like a mess, as long as you find the thread, it will be easy to untie the mess."
Xiao Ding's words are like this lantern, shining on everyone whose soul is shrouded in darkness.
If you stay in the dark for a long time, even if you just see a firefly, you will feel dazzling.
Tang Xiaotian finally understood why the heads of the major sects admired Xiao Ding so much. Xiao Ding was indeed different from others. He was calm, thoughtful, and had an extremely objective view of things. He often found unexpected ways. It looks at the problem itself from a different perspective, so it is highly subjective and inferential.
Such people will dazzle wherever they are because they seem to exude a charming light.
A glow of confidence.
People who can control their own destiny must be full of confidence in their hearts. People who can control the destiny of others must also be extremely confident in their hearts.
A person who controls his own destiny will be passionate about life because he knows how to respect the lives of others.
People who control the fate of others must be extremely dark in their hearts, because they ignore life. They don't care about other people's lives or their own lives.
One is good, the other is evil.
If these two people meet together, what kind of sparks will be created?
Xiao Ding is undoubtedly a person who can control his own destiny, and the man in the white mask is undoubtedly a person who can control the destiny of others at any time.
It seems that they are destined to become rivals, the strongest rivals in each other's lives.
Thousands of miles away, the orioles are singing, the green is reflected in red, and the wine flags are blowing in the water, villages and mountains.
There are four hundred and eighty temples in the Southern Dynasty, and there are many towers in the mist.
Jiangnan.
There are small bridges and flowing water, boats passing people's homes, apricot blossoms and gentle rain, and the mountains and rivers are picturesque.
Anyone who has never been to Jiangnan must have these images in mind.
Everyone says Jiangnan is good, but tourists only like Jiangnan.
The spring water is as green as the sky, and the boat is painted and sleeping while listening to the rain.
The people by the side look like the moon, and their bright wrists are covered with frost and snow.
Don't return to your hometown before you are old. Returning to your hometown requires breaking your heart.
For the wandering prodigal, Jiangnan is the best destination.
For those traveling with their spouses, Jiangnan is also a must-choose destination.
Although New Year's Eve is only a few days away, spring is already here in the south of the Yangtze River.
A touch of spring.
There is heaven, there are Suzhou and Hangzhou.
When you come to Hangzhou, if you don’t visit the West Lake, your visit will be in vain.
Xiao Ding and others had no intention of sightseeing. He found an older Beggar Clan disciple and made some inquiries. After asking for the direction of Lin'an City, he went straight to Lin'an.
Xiao Ding has always had a strange idea in his heart, or an intuition.
He always felt that Wugou Villa had a lot to do with this matter.
If Wugou Villa provided his own escort and secretly robbed him, what was his purpose?
Frustrated the Qinglong Society and the Money Gang? Or is it just to extort compensation from Changqing Escort Agency?
If it's the former, then is Wugou Villa an enemy or a friend?
What is the connection between Lin'an Thirteen Taibao and Wugou Villa?
While Xiao Ding was thinking about it, the "cloud car" had arrived in Lin'an unknowingly.
After many inquiries, I finally found Wugou Villa. It seems that Wugou Villa is not public and few people know about it.
Everyone thought that there would inevitably be a fierce battle, but they did not expect how wrong this idea was.
Big mistake.
Although Wugou Villa is large and luxurious, it is just the house of an ordinary businessman.
The old servant Ding who was leading the way had a puzzled look on his face. As he walked, he turned back to look at Xiao Ding and others, wondering when his master started to make friends with these people in the world.
This Wusui Villa is truly worthy of its name, clean and dust-free.
Although its area is not as vast as the Nangong Family's Jinxiu Villa, the number of buildings in the villa is almost twice that of Jinxiu Villa, and it is also much more luxurious than Jinxiu Villa.
The most important thing is that this manor is really dust-free. Except for the soil under the flowers, plants and trees, you will never see a trace of extra dust anywhere. There are servants and maids cleaning at all times with brooms and rags.
All the roads are paved with the finest marble and are wiped spotless by the maids and servants.
Pavilions, steps and corridors, rockery ponds, flower gardens, swings and courtyards, every place is cleaned at any time, even if it is a leaf that just fell from the tree, or the droppings of birds in the sky, Someone will take care of it immediately.
Everyone thought that the owner of Wusui Villa had a serious mysophobia.
When Xiao Ding knocked on the door of the villa just now, he said that they were friends of the owner of the villa, but now when the owner of the villa was right in front of him, he was dumbfounded.
No one expected that the owner of Wujiu Villa would be a woman.
Strictly speaking, this cannot be considered a person, at least not a woman.
A fat woman weighing two to three hundred pounds was lying on a wooden couch made of sandalwood. The wooden couch was covered with a complete piece of tiger skin. The wooden couch was wider than an ordinary bed.
She held a three-foot-long pear wood tobacco stick in her hand, and a servant was filling the pipe with tobacco leaves.
It seemed that her addiction to cigarettes was even greater than that of Zhou Ziheng.
There were two maids behind her who were rubbing her shoulders and back vigorously. It seemed that the two maids had used all their strength, but she still felt that the strength was not enough, and she was still cursing.
The old servant who was leading the way bowed and said, "Madam, these guests said they were your friends, so I brought them in."
Three or four people struggled to help the fat woman sit up. She squinted her small eyes. When she saw the person in front of her clearly, her voice was trembling: "How much money does Song Shide pay to hire you? I will pay double. No, no, four times, I just ask all the heroes to spare my life and don’t kill me.”
Xiao Ding frowned and asked, "Who is Song Shide?"
"What? You are not sent by Song Shide? Then who are you, and what do you want to do with me?" The fat woman was relieved when she heard that Xiao Ding and others did not know the Song Shide she was talking about, and her tone started to be aggressive. .
Sikong Zhaiyue's eyes widened, and he lightly pressed the spring on the scabbard with his left hand. The long sword popped out half a foot with a clang, and a cold light flashed at the edge of the sword. He shouted: "I'm asking you a question, answer it honestly."
The fat woman screamed and almost fell back to the wooden couch in fright. Her face was as white as paper, and big beads of sweat rolled down. She said tremblingly: "Song Shide is Song Yuanwai from the south of the city. Ah, our two families are the largest grain merchants in Hangzhou. When I was collecting grain last year, I deliberately raised the market price, but the price I offered was only 20% higher than the market price. I didn’t expect that he would actually send someone to kill me. . I, I am willing to pay four times the price, can you help me kill him?"
The fat woman asked tentatively: "If it doesn't work, I can pay ten times the price, as long as you kill him."
Sikong Zhaiyue spat fiercely and cursed: "Bah, shady businessmen like you will be punished sooner or later."
The fat woman's face trembled and she didn't dare to reply.
Everyone has understood that this fat woman and Yuan Song are the largest grain merchants in the local area.
Colleagues have been enemies since ancient times. Every businessman wants to squeeze out the business of his competitors and monopolize the market alone.
This fat woman purchased grain at a price that was 20% higher than the market price. The farmers were naturally willing to sell all the grain to her. If Song Yuanwai wanted to collect grain, he had to offer a higher price to compete with her.
If Song Yuan is reluctant to bid, she will not be able to collect grain. When there is a shortage of grain in the market, she will sell the grain she collected at a higher price. By then, while making a lot of money, she will also completely The foundation of Song Yuanwai was shaken, killing two birds with one stone.
Since she dared to take such a risky move, she must have been prepared in advance. The financial and material resources of Wugou Villa should be stronger than those of Song Yuanwai, so she must have enough food.
If Song Yuanwai dares to bid with her, she will sell the grain at a very low price when the market opens, and she can also drag Song Yuanwai to death.
She clearly did not intend to give Song Yuan a way out, so when she saw Xiao Ding and others, the first thing she thought of was that Song Yuan Wai had sent someone to assassinate her.
The reason why Sikong Zhaiyue was angry was that no matter how the two families fought, the people who suffered the most in the end were ordinary people.
Xiao Ding turned around and said with a dark face: "If I don't kill you today, you can take care of yourself in the future..."
