Chapter 173: Identity Revealed(1/2)
Ye Mohan? Yan Qiqi couldn't help but see a man in black clothes and a silver mask in his mind.
Why is he looking for the Tiansha Sect? If he is looking for Tan Xiping's identity, it can be justified. After all, he has some connections with him regarding the coal mine.
Could it be that he wanted to hire them to kill people?
Yan Qiqi frowned slightly, took the letter, opened it and read it.
"Sect Master, what does the Night Fortress Master want from you?" Hua Liufeng asked immediately.
The Tiansha Sect has never done business with Crescent Castle, so why did they come to them this time? It’s better not to be careful.
"I didn't say anything." Yan Qiqi shook her head and handed the letter to him. "It only mentioned that if you want to do business with us, you will pay fifty million taels of silver when the matter is completed. Fifty million taels is not a small amount.
, more valuable than Yin Tianjue’s head.”
As soon as her words came out, Lu Yi and Hua Liufeng immediately became a little uneasy.
Their sect leader is still thinking about his husband's head. It is truly unprecedented for a sect leader like him.
"Who does he want to kill?" Yan Qiqi held her cheek and thought carefully.
If it were Yin Tianjue, she wouldn't be able to use so much money, and it wouldn't be Yin Xianglong either. Her father-in-law had paid attention to her head money before, and it was even less than her husband's.
As for buying news, it is even more impossible. The most expensive news I have ever bought is only 100,000 taels of silver. Most people don’t pay too much for news, which is around 10,000 taels.
At this moment, an alarm bell suddenly appeared in Yan Qiqi's mind.
Ye Mohan wouldn't want to use these 50 million taels of silver to buy Yin Tianjue, Tan Xilei and her heads.
I don’t really want to kill the three of them and seize the coal and iron mines for myself.
The price of the three of them together should be about the same. Compared with now that she has become Princess Rui, her net worth has increased dozens of times.
But then again, even after the three of them die, the coal and iron mines will not fall into Ye Mohan's hands. In Lietian Kingdom, the mining industry is under the control of the royal family.
Failure to obtain royal consent would be a violation of the laws of heaven and earth and would be a serious crime of beheading.
It is understood that Ye Mohan is a serious businessman, and apart from never revealing his true face to outsiders, nothing else is illegal.
She once investigated Ye Mohan. Crescent Castle's main business was escorts, and there were also many silk shops and rice shops.
There are also several casinos and brothels, but these were not illegal businesses in ancient times.
I believe that he will not mine minerals privately, so the possibility of buying their heads does not exist.
Forget it, let's go to the address written in the letter. That's five thousand taels of silver. How could she not be tempted? She had to go there no matter what.
"By the way, sect master, there is one more thing I want to report." Hua Liufeng suddenly remembered something, "On the second day after the sect master got married, Yin Tianqi sent someone to find us, saying that he wanted to meet the sect master.
"
"Yin Tianqi is looking for me." Yan Qiqi glanced at her mouth slightly and said two words simply, "No, not interested."
She hates Yin Tianqi when she sees him. In order to be responsible for her stomach, she always has as little contact with people she hates as possible.
Later, Hua Liufeng simplified her appearance.
This time I didn't let Lu Yi pass. After all, she was often with her and exposed in front of others, so I wanted to minimize her appearance as the protector of the Tiansha Sect.
Hua Liufeng was worried, so he found Shuishui Shang again and went with them to the Yueyang Tea House specified in the letter.
This teahouse is very remote, not many people come to drink tea, and only four or five tables are occupied.
Such a hidden place is a good place to do shady business.
When we walked in, we found that the teahouse was elegantly and simply designed, making people feel comfortable and calming down inside.
If you have nothing to do, come over and drink tea, take a look at the surrounding green trees, and listen to the chirping of birds. It seems leisurely.
It's just that I don't seem to be in the mood this time.
Seeing the three of them coming, a waiter immediately came over to greet them.
No need to guess, this teahouse must be Ye Mohan's private property.
After leading the three of them to the second floor and arriving at a private room, the waiter went down to continue his business.
Hua Liufeng immediately pushed open the door of the private room and let Yan Qiqi in.
After entering, they saw a man wearing black clothes and a black cloak standing by the window, looking outside.
When he heard someone coming in, he turned around, showing that he was dressed the same as last time, with the same crescent moon mask on his face.
He immediately raised his feet to greet him, cupped his hands towards Yan Qiqi and said, "Master Yan, I'm glad to meet you. I'm silent in the cold night. Master Yan must have heard of it."
The corners of Yan Qiqi's lips curled up slightly. This person was quite narcissistic. He uttered three words coolly, "I don't know."
If she hadn't met him in the woods last time, she really wouldn't have known who Ye Mohan was.
The reason for investigating him is because of the last meeting. After all, we want to do business with him, and we must find out the details of the other party.
Ye Mohan choked at her unreasonable words and touched the mask on his face boredly.
Patiently, he introduced himself to Yan Qiqi: "I am the master of Crescent Castle. My surname is Ye Mohan."
"Oh, the sect leader of Xia Tiansha Sect, his surname is Yan and his given name is Su." Yan Qiqi also followed him and introduced herself in a decent manner.
Ye Mohan: "..."
Of course he knew who she was, otherwise he wouldn't have found her.
Yan Qiqi ignored Ye Mohan who was stunned there, walked directly to the table, pulled up a chair and sat down.
He glanced at the teapot on the table and saw a teacup on top, with the tea inside still steaming.
He reached out and touched the teapot. The water inside was still a little hot. He took a new teacup, lifted the teapot, poured himself a cup, and took a sip.
Immediately I felt the fragrance lingering on my lips and teeth, and the aftertaste was endless.
If you guessed it correctly, this should be the top quality royal hair tip.
When I was chatting with Situ Hongtian the day before yesterday, I realized that there was such good tea in Prince Rui's Mansion.
However, there are relatively few. I heard that Yin Xianglong specially gave it to Situ Hongtian, and there are three small cans in total. This kind of tea is produced in Feng Shang country and is only for the royal family. It is difficult to buy it among the people.
The taste is sweet and refreshing.
So, I tried my best to get a can from Situ Hongtian, but before I had time to taste it, it was the day I came back home.
I didn't expect that there was such tea here, and I couldn't help but doubt Ye Mohan's true identity.
But then I thought about it, since he had contacts with the royal family, there was nothing to make a fuss about having this kind of tea.
Seeing her drinking tea by herself, Ye Mohan couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you afraid that I'll put medicine in it?"
"Can you?" Yan Qiqi asked meaningfully, raising her hand to drink the remaining tea in one gulp.
He has something to do with her now. If he poisoned the tea, wouldn't it hurt the harmony?
Besides, I believe that a person who does serious business would naturally not dare to offend their Tiansha clan.
The corners of Ye Mohan's lips trembled slightly, he really didn't know how to do it.
However, should she drink tea so vigorously? This tea is for tasting, not for drinking.
"Master Night Fort, why did you come to me?" Yan Qiqi went straight to the point and asked directly about the purpose.
She doesn't have much time. Yin Tianjue will go to court soon. If she doesn't stay at home and rest well, he will probably yell at her again.
Uh, how could she be afraid of him yelling at her?
Ye Mohan sat down on a chair next to her, looked Yan Qiqi up and down with his beautiful eyes, and said quietly, "I'm very curious about what Master Yan looks like."
"Oh, I didn't expect the Lord of the Night Fort to be interested in my appearance." Yan Qiqi narrowed her eyes slightly and said with deep meaning, "However, I'm not interested in the Lord of the Night Fort. You can find it at Lian Ren Guan.
, there must be something you like there."
Then, I poured a cup of tea and drank it in one gulp.
Drinking this excellent tea is the most enjoyable experience.
"Ahem..." Ye Mohan coughed unnaturally, "I'm not interested in men, so I better not go."
"Lord of the Night Fort, you are not here specifically to see my appearance. If the Lord of the Night Fort is willing to pay fifty million taels of silver just to see my appearance, I will naturally sacrifice my dignity as a man and willingly let the Lord of the Night Fort see me.
It’s a pleasure.”
Yan Qiqi played with the tea lid and said quietly.
Take a look at her true appearance and earn fifty million taels of silver. Such a deal is very cost-effective.
Ye Mohan's bare hands on the table paused slightly, and he glanced sideways at Yan Qiqi.
She could still say this. Fifty million taels was enough to buy several luxurious cities.
So, he stopped talking in circles with her and went directly to the topic, "I'm looking for Master Yan to make a deal with the Tiansha Sect."
"What kind of deal?" Yan Qiqi asked casually.
"You should know, uh, I am engaged in escort business. This time a batch of weapons will be transported to Feng Shang Country. I would like to ask Tiansha Sect to help escort the weapons so that the weapons can reach Feng Shang Country safely."
Yan Qiqi frowned slightly, "Did you find the wrong person? We are killers, not an escort agency. It should be the escort agency's job to escort the goods."
What's more, Crescent Castle's main business is escort, so its manpower and force are naturally extraordinary, otherwise it wouldn't be so big.
