Chapter 273: The old man who bought secret books
Li Xintian went on to explain: "Actually, I might have to trouble Brother Xia and Brother Zhao to go together tonight. After all, most people can't get close to the area around the county government, but many animals can."
The fair-skinned girl winked playfully.
At this point, everyone has basically completed the analysis of this piece of information worth five hundred taels. Yi Xifeng couldn't help but sigh, "You really get what you pay for!"
However, what the fair boy didn't know was that his intelligence investigation had caused quite a stir in a deep mansion in the west of the city.
"What did you say? He didn't buy all the information. Fan Yang and Ji Rentu only bought one piece." The man with a sinister face asked in a low voice.
The servant looked up at his master, nodded and said, "Hong Mole personally received her, and she did say so."
The man paced back and forth for a few steps, and then ordered the boy: "Let her come over to see me!"
Not long after, the plump woman arrived at the mansion.
"My red mole, I have met the gang leader!" The woman did not give the traditional Wanfu gift, but folded the fingers of her left and right hands together and tapped her forehead lightly. This is obviously a gang greeting.
"Master Red Mole, please repeat the conversation between those two people and you."
The woman raised her head and glanced at the man, then recounted the entire process. Obviously she has extraordinary abilities in this area, and she actually repeated what several people said at that time, word for word.
"You mean, when they heard the information about Fan Yang, one was fifty taels and the other was two hundred, the round-faced young man screamed in surprise?" The sinister man raised his eyebrows and murmured. .
Hong Mole immediately nodded and said: "Yes."
After hearing the woman's retelling, the leading man became even more confused. It was originally suspected that this group of people came for Fan Yang of Yinren Village, but it seemed that their real purpose was something else.
As for who they work for, after this trial, they became confused.
In fact, when Hong Mole reported this incident, the man had laid a trap. The news about Fan Yang was not a big secret among the higher-ups in Luoye City, so the man planned to sell only two pieces to Yi Xifeng.
One is: This person's name is Fan Yang, a Yinren warrior.
And the other is: after this person dies, his companions will come to inquire about his intelligence and clues.
The man's order to Hong Mole was that no matter whether the other party chose two hundred taels or fifty taels, the first clue given to the other party could only be the first piece of information. The second information must also be informed to the other party when the other party expresses acceptance.
Then carefully record the other party's expression after hearing these two pieces of information. And gave Hong Mole the authority to summon experts to capture the two.
Unfortunately, things backfired. After Yi Xifeng got the first piece of information, he didn't ask any more questions.
I don’t know if this fair boy did it on purpose, or if he was just curious about the matter. If it was due to curiosity, when he spent a lot of money to buy a piece of useless information, it was enough to dispel all his remaining curiosity.
But if it is because of mission requirements, then Yi Xifeng will definitely not give up any information about Fan Yang. After all, after returning, these expenses can be reimbursed, right?
"Is this kid really just out of curiosity?" The man with a sinister face said to himself.
But obviously this is not the time to dwell on these things.
"Send someone to follow them, then find out their details, and report anything anytime!" The man ordered the plump woman in a deep voice.
………………Dividing line………………
The auction in Luoye City is the best in the entire Luoye County. This place also gathers caravans from all forces in Luoye County, as well as caravans from Luo Yun Kingdom and even other countries.
Of course, the caravans of Yinren Village are also the favorites here. After all, Yinren Village has still developed its own trade routes. Many things from the Daming Kingdom in the south and the Western Regions in the northwest are still very popular at the auction.
However, due to the recent bad relations between the two forces, many caravans from Yinren Village have chosen to avoid the limelight temporarily, or choose trading partners to sell on their behalf. For example, at the stalls in Chunfeng County and Tianhe County, there were many people representing Yinren Village. Something to sell.
Of course, no matter how bad the relationship between Yinren and Luoye is, there is an organization that is always unrestricted. It is the salary list organization of Yinren Village.
Among the various forces in Luoye County, there are branches established by the salary list organization, secretly announcing the undertaking of various commissioned tasks.
It's not that Ji Shenfu doesn't want to eradicate this influential organization, but he has already discovered that if his own forces have not built a dark network organization with the same mission, they can't do without this organization that can solve many problems with money. Hateful organization.
Hey, it smells so good!
…
After Yi Xifeng dispersed with the other four people, he followed the flow of people and wandered around the trading square.
"Hey! This little brother, I'm surprised by your body structure. Do you want to come and see our exclusive martial arts secrets? My ancestor was an inner disciple of a famous sect in Qingchuan County. How come you are so valued by the leader's beloved daughter? I wanted to pledge myself to you, but it was a pity that my ancestor already had someone else in mind at that time..."
The fair boy stopped to listen to the stall owner, and lived in vain for a long time. The story was actually very exciting. He must have been a master who could speak lotus flowers.
Until the end, the stall owner's story came to a happy ending. He didn't sell a few items, but instead attracted unanimous applause from the surrounding people!
Sure enough, no matter where they are, the people's enthusiasm for eating melons remains undiminished, let alone something like this that originated from Jianghu sects.
"Boss, you always say that you are from a famous sect. What kind of sect is your ancestor? Please tell me!" There was a mischief on the side, deliberately teasing the other party.
The stall owner obviously came well prepared, and said with a contemptuous smile: "What sect? Let's do this. You buy three of the secret books I recommend. When you master it, you will know what sect my ancestor is! Don't forget it then. Huizongmen will recognize their ancestors and return to their clan!"
Yi Xifeng thought to himself, if you can really achieve anything with your secrets, only a fool would believe it!
Just as he was thinking of this, an old man walked out of the crowd. He didn't think he was short of knowledge in what he was wearing. He said calmly to the stall owner: "How do you sell this martial arts secret book?"
As soon as the stall owner saw that business was coming, he immediately said: "Let me tell you, ginger is still hotter! You are so discerning! You are good!"
But the old man didn't say anything, he just waited blankly for the other party to answer.
The stall owner touched his nose and said with a smile: "I am doing a small business here, five liang per book, no bully!"
The old man then asked: "How many books are there in total?"
"Um... let me do the math. The Plow Hand of the Great Fan has three books, the Jue of Rejuvenation and Returning Yang has nine books, and the Immortal Finger has six books..."
The man counted with his fingers, and finally his eyes flashed, and he said softly: "There are eighty-six copies in total. If you count eighty copies, you can give me four hundred taels of silver!"
The old man smiled slightly but did not answer. The stall owner was afraid that the price he had just asked was too high, so he said with a guilty conscience: "Well, seeing that you are always destined to me, I will give you a 10% discount, and it will be three hundred and sixty taels!"
The old man remained silent, took out a banknote from his sleeve, and said calmly: "No need to look for it! You are looking for it carefully. Get me a hundred copies and send them to my house!".
The stall owner took a look at the banknote and felt happy. It turned out to be a "five hundred taels" banknote. He immediately nodded and said: "Okay, okay! Don't worry, I can make it for you tonight." ...Send it off early!”
The man was so excited that he almost spilled the beans. But the old man obviously didn't care about this, and said with a smile: "That's not necessary, just deliver it early tomorrow morning!"
