Chapter 236: Shi Qian’s Skillful Hand Takes the Treasure Sword
()Content comes from
Gao Yanei gave the order, and naturally everyone stood up. The old housekeeper hired a sedan and came to Lin Chong's house, while the others gathered around Gao Yanei and went to Lu Qian's house.
As soon as this group of people left, a person came out from the corner outside the tea shop. He covered his mouth and laughed for a while, then put down his hand and revealed his very happy mustache. Naturally, he was worried about fleas.
Gao Yanei listened carefully to Gao Yanei's "ingenious plan".
"Is Lu Qian's guy next door?" Shi Qian thought to himself: "I have to find a way to get the sword. My eldest brother has secretly arranged it. I'm afraid that pig head in Gao Yanei will stay at Lu Qian's house until he gets sores on his buttocks.
"
While thinking about it, Shi Qian went around to the back of the tea shop and saw that a nearby courtyard door was tightly closed. It must be the back door of Pan Tower. Shi Qian secretly walked forward and stretched out his hand to push. The back door was not moving at all.
, apparently bolted from the inside.
Naturally, this little thing couldn't trouble Shi Qian. When he saw the flea on the drum, he looked around and saw no one, so he came to the side courtyard wall, stretched out his hands to grab the cracks in the bricks, and with a little effort, he pressed his body against the wall and climbed up.
The courtyard wall was not too high, so Shi Qian climbed up twice, rode on the top of the wall, and took a glance at the courtyard. He could clearly see the kitchen, woodshed, etc.
When the fleas were on the drum, they saw a clump of weeds below. They slipped down and landed lightly among the weeds, making only a faint sound. Among the waiters and cooks busy in the yard, who could notice this in the corner of the yard?
sound?
Shi Qian used the trees in the courtyard to hide his figure, and slowly walked to the edge of the woodshed. He saw a Pan Lou guy hurriedly passing by. Shi Qian boldly called out from behind the tree: "Brother, come and see."
What’s here?”
The waiter saw people walking around in a hurry and no one called out. He thought he heard wrongly and was about to lower his head and walk when Shi Qian pinched his nose again and made a strange "snoring" sound. The waiter was startled.
: "Could it be that a pig escaped from the pen?"
Confused, when the man came to look behind the tree, there was no pig anywhere. Shi Qian crept up behind the man, stretched out his hand and pressed his neck, and the man immediately fell to the ground.
Shi Qian dragged him away and said falsely: "Don't be greedy and drink secretly. Will you cause trouble this time?"
Even if someone passing by heard this, they knew that this guy had drunk too much and was helped by Shi Qian to take a rest.
Shi Qian opened the firewood shed and dragged the man in like a dog. He first stripped off his clothes and put them on top of his own clothes. Seeing a rope for tying firewood next to him, he took it out, tied the man naked and tightly, and stuffed it in his mouth.
He picked up the walnuts, pushed them deep into the pile of firewood and hid them, and then gently pressed two bundles of firewood on top of the man.
In this way, even if someone comes in to get firewood, they may not be able to find this guy.
This period of time is enough for Qian Qian to take the knife.
Shi Qian changed his clothes, walked out of the firewood shed in a swagger, nodded randomly at the waiters, walked to the kitchen door with his bare hands, and deliberately shouted: "Why haven't the dishes in the private room on the second floor come yet?" Lu Yuhou was furious.
He’s jumping around and scolding!”
One of the cooks said angrily: "What the hell, the dishes for the previous guests haven't been served yet, so he is in a hurry? If a little Yuhou hadn't relied on Captain Gao, who would be willing to pay attention to him!"
"Brother, at least go ahead and recharge the numbers for one or two plates." Shi Qian made a pitiful look: "I blame you for nothing, brother can't bear it."
The cook pointed casually and said, "You should take that plate of three-silk rolls first!"
I thanked him profusely, picked up the plate of three silk scrolls, and walked forward.
Shi Qian dragged the dish to the front, casually asked a waiter, "Brother, where is Lu Yuhou? I've ordered this plate of three-silk rolls several times."
The waiter replied: "On the second floor, go up to the third room on the left!"
"Brother, that guy just looked weird!" A guy next to him said casually: "You don't look like a good person with a sinister look!"
The waiter from before said impatiently: "You are good-looking? Which month does our store not have a few new people? If you don't do your job, you will be replaced next month!"
"Is this the knife seller?" Lin Chong looked at Fu'an in disguise and felt that he was kind-hearted: "Let's take a look at the knife!"
Fu'an also took a look at Lin Chong from a distance once or twice at Gao Qiu's house. He quickly lowered his head to avoid seeing through it. He took the knife and came over and said: "This knife was handed down from my ancestor, I'm afraid you don't know the goods!"
"You man, don't talk nonsense!" Lu Qian yelled: "This is Coach Lin, who taught hundreds of thousands of Forbidden Army spears and clubs, still can't you recognize your precious sword?"
Although Lin Chong was a little suspicious, when he saw Lu Qian squinting at him and Fu'an taking out a knife, his attention immediately focused on the knife.
Fu'an muttered a few words and handed the knife to Lin Chong with both hands. Lin Chong took it and felt that it was extremely heavy in his hand, and he was immediately overjoyed.
It turns out that all the precious swords in the world are made of the finest materials and have been refined over time, and are much heavier than ordinary weapons.
Lin Chong took a closer look at the scabbard and saw that it was made of fine shark skin. He felt happy again. The shark scabbard was of excellent workmanship, so the knife must not be much different.
Lin Chong played with it for a while, then pulled out the knife with a shudder. It was indeed a good knife!
"Brother Lin, you really have a good knife!" Lu Qian from the side praised deliberately.
Lin Chong took a closer look at the blade, and saw that the patterns were densely covered with overlapping patterns. When he held it in his hand, he felt it was dazzlingly clear, and a cold air emanated from the blade.
"This knife must be full of human blood!" Lin Chong looked back and forth three or five times, and couldn't help but said: "It is indeed a rare and good knife!"
Lu Qian pretended to say to Fu'an: "A treasured sword matches a hero. If the coach is happy, you can sell it cheaper, and that will satisfy the coach!"
"Who would be willing to sell the sword unless there is something going on at home?" Fu'an shouted, "This sword is a priceless treasure, and five thousand swords is considered a bargain!"
"Five thousand guan!" Lin Chong recalled that his family only had 390 guan, so how could he afford it? After thinking about it, he said, "I really like this sword. Your ancestors were also good men, so just tell me the real price!"
"The minimum is three thousand guan!" Fu'an insisted: "If I show it to others, I might be able to sell it for 4,000 guan! But now I am in a hurry for money, so I gave this instructor an advantage!"
Lu Qian said on the side: "You are such an unreasonable man. Just now you were shouting and selling knives on the street. If I hadn't dragged you into this Panlou alive, you would have been captured by the official and taken to Kaifeng Mansion!"
Even if this knife is worth a sky-high price, it is unlikely that it will be put into storage by the Kaifeng Mansion and you will be slapped!"
"My family's inheritance was not stolen or robbed!" Fu'an defended: "Even the Kaifeng Mansion cannot arrest people randomly!"
Lu Qian sneered and said, "It doesn't matter where you got this knife. It's not a small crime to walk around on the street with a knife! This is Bianliang, not a place in the countryside!"
As soon as these words came out, Fu'an was like a deflated rubber ball: "I always thought that I could get a good price when I came to Bianliang, so how much can you offer?"
Lin Chong secretly gave Lu Qian a grateful look, gritted his teeth and said, "How about a thousand strings?"
Fu'an jumped up and cursed: "I see you are an official, why are you so ignorant of promotion? I offered you three thousand guan and you have a thousand guan?"
"I won't sell it anymore, I won't sell it anymore." Fu'an snatched the knife from Lin Chong's hand and pretended to leave: "This knife will rot in my hands, and I won't sell it anymore!"
"Hold on!" Lu Qian winked hurriedly and pulled Lin Chong aside to discuss: "How about the instructor seeing that knife?"
"The sword is a good sword." Lin Chong sighed: "What does Brother Lu say?"
Lu Qian said: "I think that man is a little tempted. The instructor's offer of one thousand guan is a bit low. It's better to offer 1,500 guan. If it doesn't work out, then that's it."
"To be honest with Brother Lu, Lin Chong only has three hundred and nine hundred strings in his hand." Lin Chong smiled bitterly and said, "Of course I can borrow one hundred and eighty strings."
Lu Qian said hypocritically: "Brothers, I still have a few hundred strings at home, you can just use them first!"
"Then why are you embarrassed?" Lin Chong said with a face full of shame: "Thank you so much, Brother Lu!"
Lu Qian and Fu An's back and forth was just to delay time so that Gao Yanei could get Lin Chong's wife. It's a pity that Lin Chong didn't know it in person and only regarded Lu Qian as a good brother!
"Have you finished discussing it?" Fu'an pretended to be impatient and said, "I'm leaving first!"
Lu Qian coughed and turned around: "Why are you in such a hurry, man! I'll discuss with this instructor and consider how about giving you fifteen hundred guan for the sake of coming all the way. If you don't agree, just leave.
!”
Fu'an stamped his feet and said, "Come on! The gold is just sold as pig iron! I just hope to get to the instructor, don't let this precious sword live up to you."
Lin Chong was overjoyed when he saw that Fu An agreed, so he urged him to get money to exchange for the sword. Lu Qian said: "Congratulations to the coach for getting this sword, why don't you celebrate?"
Fu'an also sat down carelessly and said, "I happen to be hungry. Let's eat before leaving!"
Lin Chong had just used it on his teacher Zhou Tongzhuang, but when he saw that neither Lu Qian nor Fu An wanted to leave, he had no choice but to sit down and asked casually: "You man, which of your ancestors left such a precious sword?"
"If you tell me your name, you will slander the reputation of your ancestors!" This knife was secretly taken from the mansion of Taiwei Gao. How could Fu'an be willing to say it? He kept shouting that he was hungry, so he ordered wine and food to be served, and put the knife in his hands.
The sword is leaning against the chair.
Before Lu Qian could get up, someone knocked on the door and said, "Here comes the food."
Lin Chong just said that it was arranged by Lu Qian and called in. He saw a short waiter holding a plate of three-silk rolls in his hands and pushing the door open with a smile: "Sir, here are the dishes!"
This guy was naturally Shi Qian, who was usually mysterious and mysterious. Lin Chong didn't have the opportunity to see him, so he didn't know him in person.
Lu Qian saw this man's two fat beards and disgusting face, and shouted: "You haven't barked yet, where does the food come from?"
"This is a new dish in our restaurant. I knew that Yu Hou was here, so I brought it here specially for Yu Hou to taste." When Shi Qian saw Lu Qian asking him, he replied calmly: "What's the difference after trying it?"
As he spoke, Shi Qian gently placed the plate of three-silk rolls on the table. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the precious knife leaning on the chair. He shouted: "Please taste it, distinguished guest!" but he made an excuse to hang it beside Fu'an's chair.
, his left hand has gently lifted the sword and placed it on his left leg.
Lu Qian and the other three people only went to grab the three silk scrolls, and no one noticed that Shi Qian had already stolen the sword and went out.
