Qin Wenyuan's face sank: "Why not?"

Qing Yan's heart was pounding: "There are many officers patrolling the streets. If we catch those idle men, I will tell you -"

Qin Wenyuan smiled disapprovingly: "Tell those idle men not to linger for too long, and just leave before the officials come. The lantern festival is crowded with people, and when the officials hear the news, it will be enough for them to have a good chat."

Seeing that Qin Wenyuan had already made up his mind, Qing Yan did not dare to persuade him.

In a place with sparse lighting, several idle men looked at the people hanging around with their eyes burning.

They are looking for a suitable target to attack.

A day like Chinese Valentine's Day means joy but also danger.

Some careless people may be targeted and lose their money bags. Young women who are alone or children whose parents are not paying attention may fall into the hands of human traffickers.

A few idle men were looking for well-dressed people and took advantage of the crowds to grab them.

People who go to the lantern festival will not have empty wallets.

"Brothers——"

Qing Yan suddenly said hello, which startled several idle men.

It's not open yet, so it's impossible for someone to come to your door after being discovered, right?

Seeing Qing Yan dressed as a servant, the people became even more wary.

"What's your business?"

"I have something I would like to ask some of you to help me with."

"What's up?"

Qing Yan took a step forward and said a few words to the leader of the idle men.

The leader of the idle men frowned.

Qing Yan hurriedly said: "Give me five taels of silver."

"If we don't get this right, we're going to get into trouble -" the leader of the idle men was a little moved.

Five taels of silver is not a lot, but you can still get more.

"It's just a few words with a few little girls. It's not difficult for a few big brothers."

"If you mess with the bad guy, we won't be able to walk around without food. It's hard to earn your five taels of silver."

"Brothers, you don't need to bother, just let the people around you see it." Qing Yan chuckled, "Maybe I didn't make it clear just now, but it's five taels of silver per person."

"Five taels per person?" several idle men said in unison.

"Brother——" An idle man couldn't help shouting.

Isn't it just to tease the little lady with words, then run away after teasing, and each person can get five taels of silver? Where can you find such a good thing!

The leader of the idle men nodded immediately: "Okay, but you have to pay five taels of silver as a deposit."

"The deposit can only be two taels. But please don't worry, brothers. When I take you to find those two girls, I will wait by the sweet-scented osmanthus tree next to Wang Ji's dim sum shop. Just come and get the money as soon as you are done."

The leader of the idle men thought for a while and nodded: "Then let's do it. Let's talk about it first. I will remember what you look like. If you make fun of us, I will find you sooner or later."

"That's not possible. Since I asked some big brothers to help me, I just want to get things done. I don't want to get into trouble."

"Then let's go."

Qing Yan glanced in the direction of Qin Wenyuan and walked quickly towards the bright light.

Qin Wenyuan followed closely behind several people.

The streets were bustling with people and it was not easy to find someone. Qing Yan got Qin Wenyuan's reminder and went straight to the river.

The Chinese Valentine's Day is also called the Girl's Day. Girls will put small wooden boats filled with fruits and melons into the water to pray for a happy and smooth marriage.

According to unwritten rules, there is a slight distinction between the sections of river where girls from wealthy families and daughters from ordinary people's families can put boats.

At this time, the riverside was already crowded with girls. Qingyan was dazzled by it and finally found someone.

"See those two girls standing together? One is wearing a pomegranate skirt and the other is wearing a goose-yellow shirt. That's them."

The idle man nodded.

"Then it's all a big brother's job." Qing Yan finished explaining and quietly returned to Qin Wenyuan's place.

"Is it done?"

Qing Yan lost his nervousness when he first heard Qin Wenyuan's plan and said with a smile: "Don't worry, sir, it's all done. When those idle guys heard that each of them had five taels of silver, they immediately agreed."

"That's good." Qin Wenyuan showed a satisfied smile.

In order to avoid being noticed by others, the master and servant did not stay close to the river. Qin Wenyuan's sight towards the river was blocked by people coming and going, but he could not help but stare there.

There was expectation in his eyes, and the anger in his heart was reduced a lot.

So what if they are sharp-tongued, the noble girls are teased by idle men in the street, he would like to see how they deal with it!

"Qing Yan, go and wait for them under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree. The money and everything will be cleared to save you trouble in the future."

"Master, do you want to stay here?"

Qin Wenyuan smiled slightly: "How can you miss such a good show? I will go directly back to my house after watching the beginning, and you will go back directly after finishing your work."

Qing Yan agreed and rushed to the agreed place.

Several idle men were walking towards Lin Hao when the leader of the idle men was suddenly tapped on the shoulder.

"Who?" The idle man was startled and immediately turned around to look.

What caught his eye was a very handsome young man.

There was a warm smile on the boy's lips, and his voice was low: "How about helping me with something?"

A few idle men were surprised.

What happened today? I came to them one after another and asked them to do something.

"I know that someone gave each of you five taels of silver to make it difficult for you and the two girls -"

The leader of the idle men was shocked: "Who are you and what do you want?"

Several idle men immediately surrounded the young man.

Surrounded, the young man looked calm: "Don't worry, just listen to me."

Several idle men stared at him closely.

The young man smiled and suddenly pointed his hand: "Did you see the young man in the royal blue gown? He is the one who paid you to do things."

Out of curiosity, several idle men looked through the gaps between people coming and going, and sure enough they saw a young man wearing a sapphire blue gown.

"Is it possible that he came after us and you?" Although the leader of the idle men thought it was unlikely based on the young man's demeanor, he really couldn't think of a reason why the other party came to him.

"Teasing a girl ruins your character." The young man spoke softly, but his words were earth-shattering. "I will pay you ten times and give each of you fifty taels. You go and tease the man in the blue shirt."

"What?"

A few idle men thought they heard wrongly.

"You want us to flirt with men?"

"Fifty taels." The young man said calmly.

Several idle men exchanged glances.

Fifty taels, fifty taels per person!

Done!

"You have to give me money first." The idle man at the head suppressed his thumping heartbeat and unconsciously showed a fierce look on his face.

This is fifty taels per person, and the four of them are two hundred taels.

With these two hundred taels, they can wash their hands in a golden basin.

The young man slapped a stack of banknotes into the hand of the leading idler.

The idle man quickly clicked and found a total of twenty banknotes in ten taels of denomination, exactly two hundred taels.

He looked at the young man in surprise.

He actually gave it all?

"I'm too lazy to go wait for you under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree afterwards because I think it's troublesome. I believe you are also people who are afraid of trouble, right?"

The young man asked calmly, but several people heard the threat.

"Of course, we use money to do things, so you can rest assured." The leader of the idle man said with a smile.

This young man actually heard the conversation just now clearly, but no one of them noticed. Naturally, such a person cannot be offended.

Besides, the poor guy who only gave a person five taels of silver probably wouldn't give them more money to impress them.
