34. Business opening(2/2)

"My son is fine, he is just a little scratched and was shocked. He has been resting these days.

As for the goods, if you lose them, it's just a loss of money. But what makes me embarrassed is the robbed guys. Their family has been making trouble in my shop these days and want me to pay for the redeem.”

The old man was full of worries and said to Chen Qiu with a sad voice:

"I invited the Beggars' Sect who are dedicated to the affairs of the city to talk to the group of thieves. If I redeem a few taels of silver for one person, I will give it. After all, they are all familiar friends, but the group of thieves who kill thousands of swords..."

"They ask for too much?"

Chen Qiu put down the teacup and said:

"Or I still collected the money and refused to release anyone?"

“Both are!”

The old man said to Chen Qiu indignantly:

"Xiao Qiuer, come and judge. For the first time, I promised to pay ten taels per person. I gave the money that night, but they refused to let anyone go. The lion even spoke up and mentioned one hundred taels per person!

I am not reluctant to give up the money, but I am afraid that the thief will increase the price again. What should I do?"

"Tsk tsk, this group of thieves have a big appetite."

Chen Qiu narrowed his eyes and said:

"I don't understand the rules of the world, it seems that I am a group of new thieves."

"Yes."

The old man said:

"I went to the Yi Family Escort Agency to ask, and the Yi Ke escort leader told me the same thing. I asked them to help save people, but the Yi Family Escort Agency is a large brand in Suzhou City, and the price for this is not low."

"I understand."

Chen Qiu nodded, he knew what Old Man Liu meant.

He said to Old Man Liu:

"Uncle Liu, please wait. I'll go out of the city to check it out. If it's convenient, I'll leave in the past few days. As for the price, you can give as much as my master needs when he is here."

"Xiao Qiuer!"

Chen Qiu got up, but was stopped by Old Man Liu. He said to Chen Qiu with a worried look on his face:

"The neighbors are relieved to your master's martial arts skills, but you are young... I don't think of you underestimate you, but I'm just afraid that if you go alone, you will be killed by that group of thieves, what's going on?"

"Uncle Liu doesn't have to worry."

Chen Qiu was not angry either.

He comforted:

"I want to go to the scene to see it first and find out. If the thief is powerful, I will not dare to take on your job. I am also cherishing my life. There is also a girl who needs to take care of me.

But if the thief is weak, my uncle will wait at home and see me Chen Qiu's way."

Old Man Liu saw that Chen Qiu was full of confidence, so he was not convenient to persuade him.

He left the escort agency with concern, wondering if he had done a bad job.

The neighbors knew about Lao Lutou's unfortunate death from illness on the outside, leaving only two young men, Xiao Qiuer and Qingqing, who were left to support the escort agency.

If Xiao Qiuer is not good at learning skills and something happens, Old Liu will probably be scolded and punished by the business manager.

After Old Man Liu left, Qingqing also walked out of the study. She glanced outside the door and looked at her senior brother who looked as usual. She sneaked over and said to her senior brother:

"Senior brother, are you going to save someone?"

"Yes, I'll set out in the afternoon."

"Take me with you."

Qingqing shook her head and said to Chen Qiu:

"Although I can't help you fight, I can still do this by catching up on my ideas."

"no."

Chen Qiu glanced at Qingqing and said:

"If I take you to take this risk, if Yaoqin finds out, she will drive me out of Suzhou. You can wait in this escort agency."

He looked at Qingqing's pouting look, he thought for a while and said:

"You have something to do, so you can write the reply letter to Shan Gui. Did you translate that secret letter?"

"Yeah, it's copied."

Qingqing handed the letter paper to Chen Qiu, who glanced at it and frowned, and he said:

"Is this a noun for martial arts?"

"yes!"

Qingqing nodded and said to Chen Qiu:

"And they are all very obscure words. Look at this, senior brother, this word represents a fatal point in the chest and abdomen of a person. Ordinary exercises dare not make the true qi rush into such acupuncture points.

Brother Shangui must practice rare and high-quality exercises before he can ask about the meaning of this word."

"Um."

Chen Qiu nodded, Qingqing analyzed it well.

He estimated that after they left, Shan Gui might have found the internal power used in the ruins of Taihang's immortal family.

From that sword technique, we can see that this set of internal skills must be of top quality.

Even the best martial arts.

To be honest, Chen Qiu felt a little jealous in his heart, and he envied the great adventure of the mountain ghost, but he glanced at the sword jade in his hand, and the little jealousy was quickly thrown out of the sky.

This immortal sword jade is in hand. As long as Chen Qiu does not die tragically in the middle of the journey, he will one day reach the peak of the martial arts world.

There is no need to envy others.

He has his own way to go in autumn.

"Look, Shan Gui must have many doubts when he begins to learn internal skills."

Chen Qiu touched Qingqing's head and said to her in a tempting manner:

"He is in Taihang Mountains and cannot find anyone to give advice, so you can only help him. If you are the person trusted by the mountain ghost, you cannot let him down. If you have a slight deviation in your practice, it will be a disaster.

You have been able to answer these questions for the mountain ghost these days. You must be accurate enough to help him practice. Girl, do you understand?"

Qingqing raised her head and looked at her senior brother's serious gaze.

She was a little worried for a moment, but after thinking about it, she finally nodded vigorously.

"good!"

Chen Qiu patted Qingqing on the shoulder and said:

"You can wait at the escort agency with peace of mind, and wait for your senior brother to return to victory."

Chen Qiu left the city in the afternoon and returned to the escort agency the next evening. He asked Qingqing to invite Old Man Liu, and the two of them discussed in the front hall.

"Uncle Liu, I found the hiding place of the thieves."

Chen Qiu, who was exhausted, said to Old Man Liu:

"Just in the barren mountains more than ten outside the city, I didn't care about hiding, and even robbed women and drank and had fun all day long. I was just a group of inexperienced little thieves.

They locked your guy in a cave without causing any harm. I am seventy-seven sure of this trip to save people.

It’s just that Uncle Liu needs to pat some capable people for me. When I attack and kill the thief, I need someone to save those guys.”

"OK."

Old Man Liu thought for a moment, then gritted his teeth and nodded. In the past few days, he had been troubled by the crying family members and affected his business. He hoped that this matter would be resolved quickly.

"There is another thing, Uncle Liu, you have to give me a clear idea."

Chen Qiu took a sip of tea, he lowered his voice, looked around and whispered to Old Man Liu:

"If someone who saves people unfortunately dies..."

"Xiao Qiuer, just let it go."

Old Man Liu was also able to make a decision, and he said to Chen Qiu:

"If someone is unfortunately in trouble, I will give him the one hundred taels of silver to serve as funeral silver, and also care about his family's livelihood. Of course, it is best not to have any casualties.

If everything goes well, you, Uncle Liu, and I will naturally have benefits for you."

Chen Qiu nodded.

He looked at the night outside the window and said to Old Man Liu:

"It's not too late, Uncle Liu, please go back and prepare. I will set off tomorrow morning. At the latest to the morning after tomorrow, this matter will be over."
