"Then remember to hurry up." The person who came was Mrs. Yuling's maid. She didn't understand what Qin Shou meant, so she rolled her eyes at him and walked away.
Qin Shou raised the corner of his mouth and smiled mischievously. He was preparing to treat Mrs. Yuling to another meal of tofu tonight and try out another special ability of the "Secret of Immortality".
After watching the other party leave, Qin Shou went to the magistrate to purchase the abandoned manor without any further delay.
Unexpectedly, things went surprisingly smoothly, and I bought it easily for only five hundred taels of silver.
After getting the land deed, Qin Shou hired several carpenters and bricklayers to repair the house. He initially planned to divide it into two courtyards, with the east courtyard for himself and the west courtyard for Gao Zhong and Xu Ziling.
In this way, it can be considered that I have officially found a new home in Yangzhou City.
"Hurry up, Master has an unusual guest today. Let's go there early and wait."
"What is the purpose of Xiang Master's visit this time? Do you still need the military advisor to come forward in person?"
On the street, Qin Shou had just hired workers and was about to go home.
Mai Yunfei's voice actually sounded in his ears.
Looking back, sure enough, I saw this guy walking hurriedly towards [Wangxianju], completely unaware of myself on the roadside.
"Isn't Mai Yunfei's master Shao Lingzhou?"
"He wants to meet an important guest?"
Qin Shou was curious and planned to go and have a look.
The other party is in [Yangzhou City] and there is a hurdle that he cannot overcome.
Thinking of this, Qin Shou gave the foreman some money and asked them to go home and clean up first.
He followed Mai Yunfei all the way into [Wangxianju].
"Hey, guest sir, you are here."
"Should we sit in the lobby or the private room today?"
The waiter recognized Qin Shou and came over to entertain him warmly.
"Brother, where are the people who came in earlier sitting?"
Qin Shou looked at Mai Yunfei and gave the waiter a look.
"They are sitting among the flowing clouds." The waiter told Qin Shou without hiding anything.
"Place me next door to them."
"Five pounds of soy sauce beef and half a jar of old wine will do."
Qin Shou took out ten taels of silver and threw it to the waiter, then walked straight to the second floor.
"Hey, five pounds of soy sauce beef and half a jar of old wine!"
After the waiter took the money, he shouted in his special voice.
He ran up to Qin Shou and led the way.
After a while, beef and old wine were placed in front of Qin Shou.
At the same time, there was a sound in my ears, the sound of rustling footsteps, and a few people pretending to be polite:
"Haha, I didn't expect that Gang Leader Yun was the first to arrive. It really surprised Shao."
"I guess this is Mr. Ce of the Dugu family, right?"
"How dare you not be the first to arrive when Military Master Shao invites me!"
…
"Gang leader Yun? Mr. Ce..." After listening to the conversation between several people, Qin Shou knew roughly who Shao Lingzhou had invited.
Except for Dugu Ce, the others are gang leaders who usually have a bad relationship with the [Bamboo Flower Gang].
[Jukun Gang] Yun Yuzhen, [Haisha Sect] Han Gaitian and their old acquaintance Sha Tongtian of [Yellow River Gang].
"Hey, let me tell you, Commander Shao, why did you call us all the way here?"
"Could it be that you want to give us some money?"
Sha Tong was of a straightforward nature and had a loud voice. Before Shao Lingzhou could open his mouth, it shook everyone's eardrums as if they had been struck by lightning.
"Lao Sha, your voice is still so loud." Han Gaitian glanced at Sha Tongtian with disgust, but his tone was very enthusiastic.
If outsiders were present, they might not be able to tell clearly what the two of them really thought.
"I'm happy, but do you care?" Sha Tongtian said unhappily.
"I don't care, I don't care, just don't be happy." Han Gaitian smiled and stopped talking, for fear of offending this idiot who didn't understand nonsense.
"Both brothers, please don't be angry. Let's first listen to Commander Shao about the purpose of inviting us here today."
"It's never too late to make a noise." A gentle and charming voice sounded from Yunzhen's mouth, causing Sha Tongtian and Han Gaitian to hum at the same time and said nothing more.
"Haha, it's an honor for me, Shao, that you guys can come."
"I invite you here this time, mainly because I want you to do me a small favor." Shao Lingzhou picked up the teacup and said slowly.
"If you have something to say, just say it, if you have something to say, fart, don't keep showing off, it's very disgusting." Brother Sha Tongtiansha immediately cursed, not giving Shao Lingzhou any face.
It seems that this sentence has touched people's hearts.
Several people in the room, except Dugu Ce, all picked up their teacups to cover their cheeks and snickered.
"Brother Sha is still so straightforward, which is admirable." Regarding Sha Tongtian, Shao Lingzhou, like Han Gaitian, looked down on him in his heart but did not want to offend him.
He smiled and continued: "I'm here to ask a few people to help me deal with the "Master of Fengzhu Hall" Shen Beichang. "
"Shen Beichang?" Han Gaitian narrowed his eyes and said contemptuously: "If I remember correctly, he is already over sixty, are you still afraid of him?"
"Haha, Shao always likes to win steadily."
"Shen Beichang's prestige in the gang is not inferior to mine, and his disciples and disciples are in important positions."
"I'm worried that something will happen at the [Bamboo Forest Conference] in three days." Shao Lingzhou said truthfully.
"It's easy to kill Shen Beichang, but his old friend Shi Long has already reached the master level. I'm afraid that together we may not be his opponent." Yun Yuzhen reminded.
"Don't worry about this. Three years ago, I sent someone to secretly put [Zhangqi Powder] in Shilong's tea."
"As time goes by, I'm afraid he can only send out five palms with all his strength now." Shao Lingzhou picked up the tea cup and took another sip, as if he was talking about something insignificant.
"What a plan, what a plan."
"Master Shao, you are so calculating!"
This time it was not Sha Tongtian who spoke but Yun Yuzhen. She was frightened by Shao Lingzhou's methods and started poisoning three years ago. How deep is this?
"I heard that Gang Leader Yin died on the spot in a fight. I wonder if it was also due to Military Advisor Shao's method?"
Han Gaitian asked pretending not to care.
In fact, just like Yun Yuzhen, he was so shocked by Shao Lingzhou's methods that his heart beat wildly.
"This is an accident." Shao Lingzhou smiled mysteriously, giving people a sense of plausibility.
"That's it." Han Gaitian pretended to have a sudden realization and laughed a few times.
"That's enough. There's so much nonsense. Since you asked us to come, you have to show sincerity."
"I, Sha Tongtian, only recognize money and not people. If you want me to take action, it depends on whether you have the capital." Sha Tongtian asked impatiently.
"Is fifty thousand taels enough for each person here?"
Shao Lingzhou looked at everyone with sincerity in his eyes. Little did he know that in the eyes of others, this kind of look was actually more frightening than the abyss, but 50,000 taels of silver was indeed enough to tempt people.
"Everyone here has fifty thousand taels, is it possible that I have a share?" Dugu Ce pointed at his nose and joked.
"If Mr. Lonely wants to take action, Shao would like to pay these 50,000 taels." Shao Lingzhou smiled and looked at Dugu Ce. He did not believe that the third generation heir of the Dugu family would kill someone for 50,000 taels of silver.
Of course, if he wants to take action, whether it succeeds or not, it is already done.
