"Then what do you think we should do about this matter?"
Eunuch Tu glanced at Yu Ce, then looked at Shen Xiaoxiao: "This kind of thing can't be solved by the so-called person who needs to tie the bell to untie the bell. Our family is willing to do it."
Hearing what he said, everyone present was stunned. Even Shen Xiaoxiao, who was extremely anxious in her heart, turned around and looked at Eunuch Tu with some surprise: "What do you mean..."
Eunuch Tu knocked the pipe in his hand: "Our family is from the palace, and our employer is an imperial merchant. Is there anyone better suited to come forward than ours?"
Yu Ce looked at Eunuch Tu in disbelief: "You want to come forward?"
Eunuch Tu noticed the astonishment of Yu Ce and the others, and raised a knot in his neck: "What, is it because our family is not suitable?"
Nie Shi quickly waved his hand: "I just didn't expect you to act righteously. My father-in-law is really serious."
Eunuch Tu snorted, and his cloudy eyes made people feel masculine for no reason: "When we were in the palace, we were used to seeing these conspiracies and tricks. Now that the Qing Dynasty has fallen, it doesn't matter whether I hide my identity or not. It’s not important anymore, so it’s better to help my boss.”
After saying that, he left the main hall directly, as if he came here from a remote courtyard just to help Chen Jinjun and the shopkeepers solve this matter.
Everyone present was stunned, and Yu Ce's legs, which were pacing back and forth, were frozen in place.
Shen Xiaoxiao clicked his tongue: "That's a good solution."
Yu Ce immediately came to his senses and quickly arranged for all the shopkeepers to contribute to this counterattack.
Shopkeeper Ning, who had been silent for a long time, stood up and said, "That's just right. I'll go to Marshal Huo's place to make an announcement. Otherwise, if the two sides are busy going back and forth, if they ruin each other's good deeds, the gain will outweigh the loss."
Yu Ce took a deep look at Shopkeeper Ning and said in a voice that only two people could hear: "It was you who persuaded Eunuch Tu."
On normal days, Mr. Tu always liked to stay in a remote courtyard with the Taoist priest, ignoring what was going on outside the window. Today, he was unusually willing to go out, and he also solved their urgent needs.
If someone didn't tell Eunuch Tu about all this, Yu Ce wouldn't believe it.
But among the current shopkeepers of the Chen family, only shopkeeper Ning is the most likely person to do this.
Shopkeeper Ning quickly waved his hand: "How can I persuade this old man?"
Yu Ce chuckled, nodded and continued to say to shopkeeper Ning in a voice that only two people could hear: "Whether you admit it or not, thank you brother."
Shopkeeper Ning smiled and shook his head, patted Yu Ce on the shoulder, hummed a tune and went out.
Then, Yu Ce saw Shen Xiaoxiao beside him, who looked like he had expected it.
For some reason, Yu Ce suddenly felt that the burden entrusted to him by his boss did not seem so heavy.
Chen Jinjun, who is far away in Rongcheng, does not know what happened in Yongzhou. Just like Yu Ce at this moment, he cannot imagine how troubled Wujiang is now.
This was Wu Jiang's sigh for countless times.
"Okay, it's useless to worry now. It's a military blockade. How can you and I solve it?" Lu Lianshou was on the side, leaning against the window to persuade Wu Jiang.
Wu Jiang shook his head: "When I came out of Yongzhou, Yu Ce and the others took me and talked about it for a long time. Now that my boss is not under my nose, how can I not be worried?"
Lu Lianshou clicked his tongue: "Don't worry about this. Lao Zao is with his employer. Besides, Shao Peichen's reputation is still there."
"That's true, but without the boss's instructions, what should we do? How?" Wu Jiang impatiently picked at the bottom of the tea cup with his fingers, making a rustling sound.
At this moment, Lei Yishan walked in out of breath. It was obviously a crisp autumn day, but there was a layer of fine beads of sweat on his forehead.
He wiped the sweat from his forehead, took a few breaths, and said to Wu Jiang: "Foreigners like us may not be able to do anything, but this does not mean that the local snakes in Rongcheng have nothing to do."
Wu Jiang finally stopped picking at the bottom of the tea cup. He looked at Lei Yishan in surprise: "So... there is a way?"
Lei Yishan nodded, then immediately shook his head: "I can't guarantee it, but just give it a try, it's better than waiting here."
As he said that, he looked at Lu Lianshou who was leaning against the window.
Lu Lianshou was frowning and looking at the busy traffic on the street outside, as if he had not heard the conversation between Lei Yishan and Wu Jiang.
Wu Jiang hesitated for a moment and asked Lu Lianshou: "Mr. Lu, what do you think?"
But it wasn't that Lu Lianshou didn't hear the conversation between the two people just now. On the contrary, Lu Lianshou didn't even look back and pointed to a martial arts gym on the street downstairs.
Wu Jiang and Lei Yishan walked over curiously and looked at the martial arts gym that Lu Lianshou pointed to.
"What is this?" Wu Jiang asked curiously.
Lu Lianshou clicked his tongue, raised his chin, and motioned for the two of them to look over there.
"Did you see that man's gesture?" Lu Lianshou's eyes were fixed on an old man who had just walked into the martial arts gym. To be precise, when the old man entered the door, he made a gesture with his hand on his waist.
.
That was the secret code of the Qinghong Society that Lu Lianshou was all too familiar with.
Lei Yishan also saw it, but with Lei Yishan's seniority, he couldn't tell which level of the Qinghong Club the gesture the old man made represented. He only vaguely remembered that it was a comfort from the old Qinghong Club.
gesture.
Wu Jiang didn't recognize the gestures the two men just said. He just looked at the old man who had just walked into the martial arts gym, his eyes straightened, and he muttered blankly: "It's actually him."
His voice was so low that Lei Yishan didn't hear it clearly, but Lu Lianshou's ears were relatively close and he just happened to hear what Wu Jiang just said.
"Do you recognize him?" Lu Lianshou looked at Wu Jiang in disbelief.
In his opinion, Wu Jiang should not know this old man, because when the old man walked into the martial arts hall just now, the gesture should be the tiger head on the row, which is the "big brother" of a branch.
How could Wu Jiang, a young boy who had only been to Rongcheng once, recognize such a person?
But Wu Jiang nodded solemnly: "I met him last time when he was reselling arms."
Lu Lianshou was stunned: "In gangs, this kind of arms reselling business is not allowed. You can only buy, not resell."
But Wu Jiang insisted that this man was the arms dealer when he came to Rongcheng last time.
Lu Lianshou pursed his lips tightly, feeling embarrassed.
"I have been staring at this martial arts gym for seven days. Most of the people who enter here are from the Lao Qing Hong Society. This old man should have the highest status. How can such a person be an arms dealer?"
If Wu Jiang did not admit his mistake, according to gang rules, this person would be executed immediately.
But the current Qinghong Society is already sparsely populated, and ten years have passed, and there are even fewer people who can survive in this world.
But do we really want to kill this person? Lu Lianshou was in trouble.
"Uncle, there's no need. Things are different now. There's really no need." Lei Yishan saw what Lu Lianshou was thinking at a glance and immediately put his arms around Lu Lianshou's shoulders and said with a smile.
Lei Yishan looked like a Bodhisattva, smiling ingratiatingly at this moment, which made him feel quite happy.
Lu Lianshou clenched his fists and gritted his teeth tightly.
Lei Yishan saw that Lu Lianshou still did not give up the dangerous idea just now, and hurriedly continued to persuade: "Uncle, you see, we have few people now, and they are local gangsters in Rongcheng. If there is a conflict, we will be reasonable, but in
We are wasting energy on this matter, what should we do about the boss? Think about the boss, we are here to meet the boss, not to promote the gang rules and get ourselves involved."
He looked at Lu Lianshou with a worried look.
Lu Lianshou was somewhat moved by his words.
Indeed, compared with those rules, the most important thing is to meet the boss.
Lu Lianshou gritted his teeth: "Okay, I promise you."
After saying that, Lu Lianshou took a deep look at Lei Yishan and said meaningfully: "You are becoming more and more like your father."
Lei Yishan looked at Lu Lianshou happily and did not react at all to what Lu Lianshou said.
