"Sir, the salt merchants will resume new salt supply starting today!" Huo Cheng reported word for word. "The price is normal, the highest is no more than fifteen cents."
"Where is the villain who collected a hundred coins for new salt?" Liu Mo asked.
"Never showed up again." Huo Cheng replied, "Sir, they probably got wind of it and hid it temporarily."
Of course I know this, Liu Mo thought.
At the same time, it is also certain that Zhou Zhushan is definitely not the mastermind.
After being imprisoned for three days, it is said that this guy was no longer in the mood to eat. He cried all day long and could only sleep on his stomach. Going to the latrine became an extremely painful thing.
After hearing the news, Liu Mo grinned and lost his anger.
There is no need to get angry with such a fool. If he messes with me once, I will mess with him once. The power is in my hands and I can kill you at any time. Your death will be when Mrs. Zhou is a hundred years old!
"Is there anything else? I'll go back first if I don't have one." Liu Mo stood up, his back was sore from sitting.
"Return to your lord, it's gone for the time being!" Huo Cheng said, "Congratulations, lord!"
When we walked out of the gate of the Salt Transportation Department, it was completely dark.
After a tiring night, my stomach growled. For this reason, Liu Mo took Zhao Da to the night market and found a noodle shop to sit down.
Without saying a word, the noodle shop owner brought over two bowls of noodles with soybean paste, which was a late night snack that the two of them often had recently. Lin Shiqi would arrange for her servants to bring dinner to her, but Liu Mo didn't have much time to eat it.
"Zhao Da, have you finished everything you were asked to do?" Liu Mo asked while eating noodles.
"Don't worry, uncle, I have personally chosen the masters. They are very smart!"
"That's good! I can rest assured that you can do the work!"
Zhao Da smiled and said, "Uncle, there is something you should never say if you don't say it." He asked doubtfully, "Why do you even doubt her?"
"Don't ask too much about this matter, just finish the errand for you!"
"Okay!" Zhao Da frowned.
Not long after, a tall, thin, agile middle-aged man came to the side of Liu Mo and the others.
"I've met Mr. Zhao, I've met Mr. Liu."
"No courtesy. Tell me, where did she go today?" Liu Mo asked.
"Stay at home all the time." The visitor replied.
Liu Mo's face darkened, "Has anyone visited her?"
"Yes!" The man stood up, leaned into Liu Mo's ear, and whispered his name.
Hearing that name, Liu Mo's expression became very ugly. "I know, keep staring!"
After saying that, he put down a few coins and immediately stood up and left with Zhao Da.
After returning home, Liu Mo went directly into Gong Xiaorou's room. It was her turn again tonight.
After being teased during the last action, how could he still be in the mood to do something serious? Naturally, the three-day promise was not fulfilled.
And today, most of the time, I am not in such a mood, because I have too many things to worry about.
"Husband is back?" Gong Xiaorou didn't sleep and had been waiting for him. "Why are you still depressed?"
"Yes." Liu Mo sighed, "Last time I wasn't caught, and I was humiliated by that guy Zhou Zhushan."
"Didn't he suffer a lot from your husband?" Gong Xiaorou laughed, "I heard that he was carried home today."
Liu Mo snorted coldly, "The day after tomorrow, if everything goes well, I will fulfill my promise to my husband immediately!" As he said this, he picked up Gong Xiaorou and said, "Let you enjoy the feeling of not being able to get out of bed for once!"
"Ah? You don't want it!" Gong Xiaorou's face turned red, "Did your husband receive another clue?"
"Well, this time, I'm sure of it!" Liu Mo replied.
"I hope so. I won't be happy if I don't look at your bitter face all day long!"
Liu Mo smiled and the answer will be revealed tomorrow night.
~~~
Liu Mo bowed his body, kept his balance, listened to the rapid beating of his heart, took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. Silent as a shadow, he told himself, as light as a feather.
Not far away, a young woman wearing a veil looked back very warily. She felt something behind her, and her eyes were full of warning.
It turns out that it is so difficult to track a weak girl. Many times, if Zhao Da hadn't pulled him back to a corner in time, she would have discovered him long ago.
In order to find out where this woman was going, Liu Mo, Zhao Da and seven or eight other experts had been following her for two hours.
The woman was very vigilant. She first walked around the market, then walked along the river bank for a stick of incense, then went to Blacksmith Street, and finally left the city.
After confirming that there was "no one" behind her, she moved forward again, walked into an abandoned house, passed through a hidden courtyard, rounded the corner, climbed over the wall, squeezed into a low and narrow window, and came to a place where she could not reach her. The dark cellar of Five Fingers.
"Zhao Da, wait a minute!" Liu Mo lowered his voice and grabbed Zhao Da who was about to catch up. "Be careful of being discovered by her!"
Liu Mo's guess was verified. After about half a stick of incense, she poked her head out of the cellar entrance, looked around cautiously, and finally got back in again.
"Follow up!"
So everyone ducked their bodies again and followed the woman into the cellar.
"Stinky! It stinks!" This was Liu Mo's first impression of the cellar.
Everyone was enduring the weird stench, but no one spoke out for fear of being exposed.
As they walked all the way, Liu Mo could clearly hear his heartbeat and the sound of dripping water in the distance in the darkness.
As quiet as a shadow, Zhao Dazeng told him.
After a while, my eyes got used to the darkness, and the room seemed to gradually light up, and the things around me slowly appeared.
After walking for about a stick of incense, they caught up with the woman.
Not far away, the woman held a torch in her left hand and held the knocker on the wooden door with her right hand. She pulled hard. The door resisted for a while, and then slowly opened inward, making a creaking sound.
She opened the gap just enough for herself to get in, and then got in...
"Sir, what should I do?" Zhao Da asked softly.
Liu Mo fell into deep thought. The door had been closed. If he wanted to continue tracking, the sound of the door opening would definitely be discovered.
What's behind the door? A simple room, or...
"Go up and have a look!"
The order was given and everyone came to the wooden door. Through the crack in the door, you can see the firelight inside.
She didn't keep walking! ! !
Liu Mo closed his eyes, stabilized his breathing, and took a quiet breath.
"You guys stay outside the door, I'll go in alone!"
"What?" Zhao Da said in shock, "Uncle, you must not do it. Who knows if there is anyone else in the room!"
"I have made up my mind, no need to say anything more." Liu Mo announced.
Zhao Da had no choice but to order his men to leave the gate and ambush all around.
Taking a deep breath, Liu Mo stretched out his hand and knocked on the door knocker...
Behind the wooden door, the woman heard a knock on the door and was shocked.
Then, there was deathly silence.
"Dong dong dong." Liu Mo knocked on the door knocker again.
"Who?" the woman asked in panic.
Liu Mo didn't make a sound, but knocked on the door knocker. "Dong dong dong!"
The woman seemed to have thought of something and did not continue to ask.
There was a creaking sound, and the wooden door slowly opened.
When the two parties' eyes met, "Husband...husband...husband!" the woman said tremblingly.
"Xiaowan..." Liu Mo read out the name, and then sighed!
