He sighed secretly, stopped two salesmen, bought some plums and persimmons, and chewed them without any taste. When the sun turned further to the west, Hun San'er was the first to run back. When a man selling fragrant medicine was passing by, he stopped the salesman and asked for a bowl of hot sweet ginger water. He drank it, wiped his mouth and said, "Master, I'm asking about it!"
After saying this, he took out a big coin from his arms and gave it to the salesman, and then said: "I tried my best to serve you and almost broke my leg. However, yesterday's cold syndrome caused me to run like this and I sweated profusely. It’s getting better——”
Li Bochen smiled, threw a lot of money to him, and said, "Let's talk about it."
Hun San'er stuffed the bulging money into his arms and smiled happily: "There used to be a shop like this in the city that made Polygonum fermented rice. But it was more than ten years ago. At that time, a refreshment shop was opened called Lin Qiaozui Food Shop. , the shopkeeper was a widow. Later, because some gangsters robbed the money, she stabbed her in the heart with a knife and disappeared. Do you have a pair of children left? The son joined the army and I won’t talk about it. The daughter, let’s call her Lin Qiao, hehe..."
"how?"
"We're in Jinghui Building now!" Hun San'er sighed, "I couldn't even think of it, the girl in Jinghui Building is Lin Qiao! After asking about it, I also remembered that Lin Qiaozui Food Shop used to be It's just across a small street from my house. I should have seen Miss Qiao when I was a child. If I had known, I would have..."
Li Bochen frowned and interrupted him: "Jinghui Tower, is it..."
Hun San'er laughed again: "That's right! But high officials, why are you asking about this? Miss Qiao is now the number one red card in Jinghui Tower, and her worth is very high!"
Li Bochen then said: "Okay, you're done, Brother Hun, I have nothing else to do."
After saying this, he led the horse to go away. But Hun San'er took a look at his men and horses, laughed, folded his arms and said, "Officials are generous, don't blame me for being talkative - it doesn't cost a penny to ask me about this matter." , thirty or forty big bucks is enough. Don’t suffer a loss next time.”
Li Boxen was surprised by what he said, so he smiled and said, "Okay, thank you third brother for the tip."
Just as he was about to take a step forward, Hun San'er said again: "Isn't the high official from Li Guo?"
Li Bochen was shocked - he felt that his Li Guo accent was no different from the people here. How did Hun San'er know?
Then he turned around and said, "How did you tell?"
Hun San'er smiled and pointed to his arms: "You are using Sui money. Although Sui money and Li Qian are used in the city, only foreigners carry Sui money. Seeing as you are a member of the world, if you don't want to attract attention, It’s better to go to the treasury and exchange the money, and you can get more.”
This man is really thoughtful. Li Boxen secretly thought that among the 360 Xingxing candidates, no one should be underestimated.
He thought for a while and said, "Thanks for the tip."
After another pause: "Brother Hun, it's best not to mention the matter I want you to inquire about today to others. Otherwise, I'm afraid it will cause trouble for you."
Hun San'er said with a smile: "Of course I know."
Li Bochen bowed his hand to him and led the horse away.
After walking along the avenue for a while and turning into a quieter alley, he sat down against a shed on the side of the road. After leaving his body, he returned to the place where he met Hun San'er and watched quietly. .
His companions slowly came back, and Hun San'er took out a lot of money and divided some among them. Then these people laughed and ran to a roadside restaurant to order some wine and meat, and started eating and drinking.
Li Boxen walked around again and found nothing unusual, so he returned to his physical body.
Hun San'er must be an ordinary person. When he went to inquire about Liao Niang, he probably didn't attract anyone else's attention. Li Bochen believed that Ye Luna and the two must have been to Sanguan City, so he had to be careful and beware of possible traps.
He took the horse again and walked slowly along the street out of the alley. After half an hour, he reached the river. The street next to the river was a little more lively than the one at the city gate. There were thick willows on the river embankment, all of which were growing new green. There were some shops on the other side. He took a look and saw that there was a Lijia Jieku.
Remembering what Hun San'er said, he went in and exchanged the 543 Sui coins in the package for Li coins, and also changed the three silver collars. Originally, there were 3,543 yuan left, but after the exchange, there was more, and it became 3,752 yuan.
When exchanging money, I asked the shopkeeper and learned that Jinghui Building was only two streets away from here, so I asked the top-notch clever girl again. The shopkeeper smiled and said that his more than three thousand dollars was probably only enough to have a cup of tea.
Li Bochen smiled bitterly in his heart - he had originally thought that he would have to find a place to sleep tonight, so he might as well pretend to be a guest and find a room in Jinghui Building to stay for one night, and by the way, he could secretly take a look at that beautiful girl. Ye Lu and the others should also be looking for her, but judging from the tone of Hun San'er and the shopkeeper, the Qiao girl is still alive. If you get a chance, see if you can get anything out of her.
Unexpectedly, his entire wealth is only enough for "one cup of tea" - so he might as well spend dozens of dollars to find a hotel to stay in.
But something moved in his heart, and he remembered the gold medal. Then he put his hand into his arms, crumpled the gold medal into a ball with force, and replaced it.
This gold medal was exchanged for another six thousand coins, which equaled six silver collars. But according to the shopkeeper, this nearly 10,000 yuan is only enough to talk to that clever girl some more.
Ten thousand yuan is enough for a family to have enough food and clothing to live for two years, but it can only be used to talk and drink tea. Li Boxen thought, why should I spend this unjust money? Anyway, I just wanted to ask some questions, but I didn’t want to do anything else. Just sneak in at night and be a gangster for once!
He made up his mind, took out the money, mounted his horse, and walked slowly to the old Nanmen Street where the shopkeeper Jieku mentioned, and looked for the Jinghui House. I heard Hun San and the shopkeeper Xie Ku say that there was a gold selling cave, but when I saw it, I found it to be a quiet and elegant place. Facing the street is a facade with black tiles and white walls, and there should be a vast courtyard behind it. In the courtyard, two three-story buildings are faintly visible. They are not covered in red and green like Cong Yunxuan in Zhangcheng. Instead, they are covered by trees and only a few corners of the cornices are exposed.
The scenery is really good and suitable for sneaking in at night. He found an inn nearby, and when he asked, he found that a room would cost a hundred and twenty yuan. However, he became more generous at this time, and thought that it was no big deal to enjoy it this time, so he settled down.
He carried the package and entered the room, bolted the door and meditated some more to adjust his breathing, slowly dissolving some of the accumulated spiritual power in his body. After the sun finally set, I ordered some food, cleaned up, and continued to adjust my breathing. When I heard the city's mechanical bell strike four times, I knew it was four o'clock in the morning - even if Jinghui Tower played music every night, they would be tired by this time.
He put on his armor and put on the big cloak. He opened the window and saw the wind was high and the moon was dark, and there was no one on the street. He jumped out.
