Chapter 84 Close the eyes(1/2)
As soon as he entered the door, Li Chunfeng felt that the boss was really not simple. The store was decorated in a simple and elegant manner, without any vulgarity. Most of the shoppers were handsome young men, without the philanthropic smile. Seeing that the two of them came in, they just nodded slightly and went to work on their own.
Li Chunfeng and Li Jingyan walked to the counter. They saw that all the cloths were divided into color and materials carefully, which made people feel very comfortable and there was no need for a friend to greet them.
The two of them walked around casually for a few steps, and Li Jingyan whispered: "What type do you want?"
Li Chunfeng smiled slightly and said, "It doesn't matter what it looks like. The most important thing is that people can tell it is a good thing at first glance."
Li Jingyan nodded and said, "How much do you want?"
"Please ask for more. It's best to fill a box."
Li Jingyan was slightly surprised and said, "How much money do you have?"
Li Chunfeng had already checked it in the morning and said at this moment: "There are still five or six thousand taels."
Li Jingyan shook her head slightly and said, "That's not enough."
"Ah?" Li Chunfeng was very surprised. In his opinion, no matter how expensive the material is, it is still a material. It cannot be more expensive than ready-to-wear.
As if seeing through his thoughts, Li Jingyan whispered: "The store we just went to looks pretty good, but the materials are all medium. It would be good if you paid enough for a truly good material to buy one."
Li Chunfeng was speechless. He really didn't know that this thing was so expensive. He shook his head and smiled bitterly: "The original plan would not work. I didn't expect that you are quite knowledgeable about these things, Senior Sister."
Li Jingyan nodded and said, "I just understand a little."
"Oh? Then let me tell you. You know, I am pretending to be the young master of the silk shop now. If I ask questions, I will soon reveal my strength." Li Chunfeng said intrigued.
Li Jingyan glanced at him helplessly, but ignored him. Instead, he waved to a friend and pointed at Li Chunfeng and said, "Introduce him about your satin. If you like it, he will buy more."
The guy was stunned for a moment, not sure why the two people who seemed to be together made such a request. But after looking at Li Chunfeng's clothes and temperament, he didn't expect that he was coming to cause trouble on purpose. Then he smiled and said, "What are the instructions, this guest?"
Li Chunfeng looked at Li Jingyan in anger, thinking that he was so unhappy to talk to me. But then he thought, maybe she just didn't know much, and wanted me to understand more deeply. So he said, "Actually, it's nothing. I just wanted to sell a batch of goods to the west recently. I heard that the silk there was very tight. So I wanted to come and see, if possible, I wanted to buy some goods from us. But I know this is really ominous. Please introduce it to me."
The guy was even more surprised. He dared to touch the silk business without knowing anything. I think the person in front of him was probably the legendary prodigal son or the second generation ancestor who had money and had no place to spend it. But he did not dare to show a look of negligence on his face and smiled and said, "So that's it, let's come with the young man."
After saying that, he brought the two of them to the east end of the store and pointed to the goods on the stage: "Silk, to put it bluntly, it is actually a place of origin. These are Huzhou silks, which are famous for their beautiful appearance in the world. They are famous for their white color, flexible texture, thin round shape, and uniform body. Please see this color. Only authentic lake silk can be made. Come here."
As he said that, he led the two to the north and said, "Although the silk in Huzhou is better in terms of color and quality, the best one in our store is the Su silk here. Please see, although Su Chen is not as bright as the color of the lake silk, its light and soft texture is indeed unmatched by the lake silk." As he said, he pointed to the side and said, "As for the silk that is produced in Yizhou, although it is not as good as the silk of lake silk and summer silk, it is much lower in price, so it has been favored by some people who are not very wealthy in recent years."
Li Chunfeng nodded and saw that the guy had no intention of saying anything, so he hurriedly asked, "What is the other side of the Western Head?"
The guy smiled and said, "There are some of the poorly-looking poplins over there. There are also imitation silk poplins over there. I don't want to be interested in the young master."
Li Chunfeng thought to himself that, but he was about to leave, but his heart moved. His eyes rolled and he plotted to his heart, patted the clerk's shoulder and said, "Yes, I said it very much. I also know how to speak according to the identity of the guest. Do it well." After saying that, he smiled slightly, stopped talking, and walked out of the door with Li Jingyan.
"What should I do next?" Not long after leaving the door, the smile on Li Chunfeng's face was curled and he frowned.
"Don't ask me, you've thought about it yourself." Li Jingyan continued.
"Well, let's go back. I need a quieter place. It's too noisy." Li Chunfeng had a slight fantasy about Li Jingyan's ability to come up with an idea, but now it seems that he is really thinking about the matter after the incident, so he frowned.
"Okay." Li Jingyan nodded.
After they made up their plans, they turned around and returned along the way.
"Huh?" After walking a few steps, Li Jingyan reached out and grabbed his sleeves beyond Li Chunfeng's expectations, making Li Chunfeng a little confused.
"Don't move around, keep going." Li's stunning and cold voice came.
"What's wrong?" Li Chunfeng certainly wouldn't be stupid enough to think that Li Jingyan was showing kindness to him, so he pretended that nothing happened, and let Li Jingyan ask while holding his sleeve.
"Don't look back, someone is following us." Li Jingyan's understatement made Li Chunfeng stiff.
"When did it start?" Li Chunfeng took a few more steps before he recovered and asked quietly.
"It probably started when we came out of the silk shop." Li said stunningly.
Li Chunfeng said: "Is he a master?"
Li Jingyan said: "No, if the master is not so easy, he will be discovered. What should I do now? You have the final say."
Li Chunfeng knew that it was time to make a decision now. The identity of the person behind him was uncertain. He did not dare to act rashly, as he would reveal his identity. He did not take action, but he was afraid that he would find a flaw.
After thinking about it, the most urgent thing now is to find out who is behind it.
He said to Li, "Don't do it first, wait until you get to a place where there are fewer people."
Li Jingyan nodded. After walking two more steps, a slanting alley appeared in front of him, and the deepest part was exactly where the two were looking for. Li Chunfeng signaled Li Jingyan with his eyes and walked into the slanting alley.
After leaving the downtown area, even Li Chunfeng could hear it. A footstep was followed by them in a place not close to them.
"Can you guess who it is?" Li Jingyan said softly.
"I don't have a clue, we just arrived. Anyone is possible. That's why I'm so cautious. Leave it to me later. Senior sister, don't talk first." Li Chunfeng said as he turned his feet and led Li Jingyan into a small alley in the slanting alley.
As soon as he entered the alley, Li Chunfeng couldn't help but scream. This was a dead end, which was surrounded by several large houses around him. There was no family inside, and there were high walls on both sides. It was the place the two needed.
"Haha, if you have a way in heaven, if you don't go, if you have no way in hell, you break in."
Just as Li Chunfeng secretly praised the geographical location of the alley in his heart, a grim smile came from behind the two.
When Li Chunfeng turned around, he saw a young man with a scent of a ground hooligan all over his body, looking at the two of them sneered against the wall.
"Why do you say this to my friend?" Although the other party didn't look like someone with a background, Li Chunfeng's vigilance was still not relaxed. He knew that some foreign forces often hired local hooligans to find out the news because they first arrived in another place and were not familiar with the place. However, it was rare for him to come to him so blatantly. He couldn't figure out what the other party was selling, so he could only pretend to be confused and asked.
"Friend? Ha, yes, we are friends." The gangster smiled.
"This...you and I have never lived forever." Li Chunfeng frowned.
"Stop talking nonsense, you just called me a friend. Isn't there such a saying? What's the name of all the brothers in the world?" The gangster said with a straight look.
"It's reasonable, my friend said." Li Chunfeng took a step forward and blocked Li Jingyan behind him. For nothing else, he was afraid that the woman behind him would kill the ignorant boy in front of him in anger. He wanted to try to find out something from this guy.
"Since I'm a friend, it's not an exaggeration for me to borrow something from you." The gangster laughed and then pulled out a dagger from his back.
"This... I understand what you mean." Li Chunfeng pretended to realize it when he saw the dagger, and said with a terrified expression on his face.
Then, before the gangster could speak, he took out a stack of silver notes from his arms.
"Don't come here. I want to send me this little money?" The gangster said angrily when he saw this.
Li Chunfeng was really happy when he heard this. He thought that since the other party was not coming for money, he must have another intention. He wanted to take the kid now, but he was afraid that he would break himself like a dead soldier who stole Lingyun Mountain that night. So he pretended to be scared and said, "What do you want? This is three thousand taels of silver?"
"Three thousand taels?" The hooligan's eyes changed when he heard this number. Then he heard him say viciously: "Since you are so sincere, I will accept the Qian. But, I want one more thing?"
Li Chunfeng pretended to the end, hugged his head with both hands and said, "Don't kill me."
"Kill you? Haha, I won't kill you." The gangster was stunned and then said with a grin: "I want the woman behind you. Grandma, this sunny gate is also a place where there are beautiful women, but it is rare for someone like this to behave. As long as the plate is not too bad, I will make more than three thousand taels of money. As for your Young Master Li, the ransom that your father is willing to pay may not be a small amount."
"Young Master Li?" After hearing the gangster's words, Li Chunfeng was stunned, then stood up straight and asked back.
"Pretty little. Aren't you the young owner of Hengchang?" the gangster asked back.
"So you're just for this?" Li Chunfeng looked at him and smiled, then put the silver notes he took back into his arms.
"What are you doing? Take the money." The gangster looked at Li Chunfeng and roared. He didn't understand why the young master Li San who was running was no longer afraid after he pointed out his identity. The smile also made him feel uncomfortable. When those pair of smiling eyes looked at him, they were not more afraid, but with a sense of pity.
Li Chunfeng waved his hand gently and said, "Forget it, you don't have to say anything anymore. Don't do this in your next life. If you really want to do it, you should also check the calendar before going out."
"What are you talking about, boy? Are you looking for death?" Li Chunfeng's attitude and words completely angered the little hooligan. He screamed wildly, rushed up with a dagger.
"You're talking nonsense, get out of the way."
This was the last sentence this hooligan heard in this world. It was a woman's voice, even though it was extremely impatient, it was also very pleasant. Then he saw the so-called "Young Master Li San" in front of him sigh gently. His feet turned lightly and left his attack line lightly. Before he could figure out what was going on, a pink light lit up in front of him.
With the energy flying, he saw the woman's face that had been covered by the veil for a moment.
"The plate is so bright." This was his last thought.
Li Chunfeng watched the whole process quietly from the side. He watched the hooligan wield his dagger and slid past him. He also looked at the long sword that Li Jingyan instantly imagined. He also looked at the hooligan who seemed to have no reaction and was hit by the pink light. Finally, he watched him turn into ashes.
He wanted to stop all this from happening. But he knew that he could not do it. From this ignorant boy spoke, Li Chunfeng knew that the boy was finished. The murderous aura behind him continued to swell, which made him feel a biting in front of him. He really hoped that the boy in front of him was really a spy sent by someone. So that he would not have to die.
Unfortunately, he is not.
Seeing Li Jingyan withdrew the sword, she instantly turned back to the beautiful young woman she had before. Li Chunfeng couldn't help but ask, "Do you really have to kill him?"
"It's necessary to kill." Li Jingyan didn't look back at him and said in a cold voice.
"Why?" Li Chunfeng blurted out.
Li Jingyan turned around, looked at Li Chunfeng through the veil, and said slowly: "Because he is very annoying." Then she turned around and walked forward.
Li Chunfeng stood in the local area. He wanted to have a big fight with Li Jingyan. After all, it was a life. How could she be so merciless? But he couldn't stand the beauty in front of him. He had no choice but to sigh.
"Do you think I'm cruel?" Li Jingyan, who had just walked two steps, heard the movement behind her and stopped the trail.
Li Chunfeng did not answer, but at this time, no answer could explain everything.
Seeing that he did not answer, Li Jingyan ignored him and walked out on his own.
Li Chunfeng stood there for a moment, and finally shook his head helplessly and slowly walked out of the alley.
Turning on the street, he looked up to look for Li Jingyan's figure. But there were too many people. After looking on tiptoe several times, he couldn't find the familiar back. He had to go to find the carriage he came here first, hoping that Li Jingyan had already returned here first.
When he arrived at the intersection, he found that he was really thinking it was right. Li Jingyan not only came back first, but also left first.
Looking around, he didn't see the carriage he came. He walked into the tea shop with the last glimmer of hope. After receiving the answer that the coachman was called away by a woman, Li Chunfeng came to the street with a wry smile. He thought that women of any era were the same, and they really had the racial specialty of being angry about anything anytime and anywhere.
He found another carriage. Li Chunfeng rushed back to the inn quickly. After asking downstairs that his so-called "madam" had returned, Li Chunfeng hurriedly went upstairs with the waiter's sympathetic gaze.
"Senior Sister." When he arrived at the door of the room, Li Chunfeng thought for a long time before whispering softly.
"What's the matter?" After pausing for a while, Li's amazing voice came from the room.
