Within the inner hall, the servant boy faced the head of the Liu family and said, "Patriarch, I was lucky enough to succeed. That little thief even gifted me ten taels of silvers. What do you think …" The manservant said respectfully.
"Give 5 taels to the accountant. You can keep the rest for yourself. Just treat it as your payment for your hard work. Let's go." The head of the Liu family said impatiently.
The manservant was dumbfounded. I was hoping for more rewards from you, but why are you not playing your cards according to the rules? I don't know if I should tell you the truth or not.
Even though he was unhappy, he still said on the surface, "Subordinate will take his leave."
"Work properly for the Liu family. You won't lose out." The head of the Liu family said in satisfaction.
"Yes, this little one will take his leave." The manservant replied.
The head of the Liu family turned around and pushed the door open as he said to the old man, "Father, the matter that you told me has been settled."
"Good, very good. You should also report this matter to those people from the Shadow Division. The City Lord's Mansion has been in charge for so many years, it should be swapped out." The old man's hair was white, but his face was flushed.
"Alright, then I'll take my leave, father." The head of the Liu family bowed and slowly left the inner hall.
"Old Ye, go call number two over." The old man still didn't feel reassured. It would be good to let the second brother divine the good fortune.
"..."
The Liu Clan had a separate courtyard. Other than the Taoists, there were no other maids. According to him, people who walked the path of law should do their own things. How could they allow others to do things that were common?
The old servant knocked on the courtyard door. When Dao Chi heard the commotion, he ended his meditation and got up. He then opened the door and asked, "Uncle Ye, what's the matter?"
"Second Master, the old master is looking for you."
"Alright, I'll go now."
With that, he closed the door and left with Old Ye towards the inner hall.
When the two of them reached the inner hall, they saw the old man with the white hair and rosy cheeks. "Father, is there something you need me for?"
"Second brother, it's like this …"
The old man explained everything that had happened to the Dao fanatic.
"Father, our Liu Manor seems to be sinking deeper and deeper."
"I have also thought about this problem. Since the Dragon Gate is fighting, I have no choice but to send it. Our Liu Manor is a sword on the strings. Second Brother, you should come and make the calculation." The old man was also helpless. He had originally planned to be the person who borrowed the blade, but who would have thought that he would not be able to control it?
"..." "I never thought that our Liu family and this little thief had such bad luck. In the past, eldest sister-in-law saved him, but instead she raised a tiger and caused trouble for him." While sighing, Dao Chi counted the auspicious fate with his fingers.
"Seventy-two rounds of Escape Armor is used to determine Yin and Yang, with me as the center palace …"
While the Taoist was casting the spell, he was muttering to himself with his eyes closed.
However, he still could not see anything. In a moment of desperation, he forced out a drop of blood essence from his heart and his face turned pale. This was a move he had no choice but to do. He was not proficient in it.
As he operated the "Great Spiritual Treasure Art Seal", he gradually saw a scene in the chaos. The leader was cursing under his breath and struggling to live.
He wanted to continue watching, but a surge of anger surged through his heart. He couldn't suppress it anymore, and he spat out a mouthful of blood with a "Pu" sound.
The old man quickly got up, "Is my son alright? If I knew earlier, I wouldn't have let you go. Old Ye went to get the most famous doctor in the city, he said that the Second Master of the Liu family was sick, and told him to scram quickly. "
"Father, Uncle Ye, there's no need. I can come here when I meditate. Father, listen to me, I saw a mess. The youth in the lead pounded his chest and stamped his feet in disappointment. As an idiot, he just sat there. Just now, he had lost too much blood essence, so he hadn't been able to react at all.
"Second brother, are you sure that kid is that little thief?" It seems like this Whistling Wind City will have to change days. " The old man's face suddenly lit up. In the past few days, he had been killed because of his grandson. Now, not only could he avenge his grandson's death, he could even raise the Liu family to a whole new level.
"Father, you can't be arrogant and complacent. The dust has yet to settle. I'm only looking at a small corner of the future." The Daoist Priest hurriedly persuaded.
"Second brother, I know. I just want to see that little thief fall into my hands as soon as possible and let me teach him a lesson." The old man said kindly.
But in truth, regardless of whether it was the Old Master of the Liu Clan or the Taoists, they did not think of it or did not see the hint of smile concealed in the corner of Li Jin's mouth.
"..."
At this moment, the old cow was already sitting in the tea house, calling for a plate of peanuts and a bowl of wine. Although his butt was still aching, it did not stop him from enjoying the story.
As soon as he began, someone sitting beside him patted the old cow on the shoulder. "Ox Bro, the Young Master said he wants you to go back. He has something to talk to you about."
Just as the old cow was getting excited, he was interrupted. Just as he was about to get angry, he heard the word 'young master' and his anger vanished. He turned around and saw that it was Little Zhang.
"Little Zhang, I'll let you have it." He immediately left in a hurry.
Zhang Jian was just about to say, "Thank you, Brother Niu."
He heard a voice from behind him, "No need to thank me. I haven't paid the bill."
Little Zhang shivered. This Brother Niu was really a sincere person.
After the old cow had left, Xiao Zhang took the place of the old cow and sat there like a gentleman.
As expected, the Liu family servant did not go back on his word and rushed to the tea house while panting heavily.
"Brother, I'm ashamed. I'm actually half an incense stick late." The manservant cupped his fists in apology.
"I'm fine, I'm fine. Brother, you've just arrived." Zhang Jian quickly waved his hands.
Zhang Jian gestured to the seat beside him with his eyes, and his eyes became misty. "My dear brother, this life of mine is not going so well."
The attendant sat down and took the bowl of liquor handed to him by Zhang Genji. He finished it in one gulp and muttered, "Big brother, my life isn't too good."
The two of them no longer cared about the music reviews on stage and only focused on drinking. The audience looked at the two of them covetously. They finally had the time to listen to a song, but it was all messed up by these two idiots in front of them.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Zhang Jian felt a chill run down his spine. He hurriedly grabbed the manservant and ran out of the tea house. Only then did the surrounding people withdraw their gazes and continued to listen to the song while shaking their heads.
"Little brother, little brother, it seems you are drunk." Zhang Genji smiled as he looked at the blurry servant in front of him.
"Big brother, I'm not drunk. I can still drink." The waiter burped. Just now, he had unintentionally drunk a catty of liquor.
"Take you back to the Liu Estate for me, brother. You can't drink anymore." Chang wrapped his arms around the valet and was about to send him back.
With the status of this young servant in front of him, it was impossible for him to complete the mission that the young master had given him.
"Big brother, little brother, let me tell you the truth. It's best for you to leave the Mayor's mansion quickly. Our Liu family is going to deal with the Mayor's mansion. I've already sent the items to the Mayor's mansion, they are blooming …" The page snored and fell asleep.
Zhang Jian's eyes lit up as he thought to himself, "Little brother can only let you down."
Sending the manservant back to the Liu Estate in a swaggering manner did not arouse the Liu Estate's vigilance. After all, no matter who it was, it was within reason to get the money and find a few bad friends to amuse themselves.
"..."
Old Ox rushed into the yard, exhausted, only wishing that his parents had given him less legs. He knocked on the door, panting. This time, Old Ox had become smarter, otherwise, if Young Master took him out on any other matters, his butt would probably split into eight pieces.
"En, I'm back. I'll tell you something, when it gets dark, go to the garden and see if there's any fresh soil. If there is, then bring it here before anyone notices, and let me see. If there isn't, then you and I, and even this Mayor's mansion will be in trouble." Li Jin said seriously, "Don't be careless. This matter concerns the lives of both master and servant."
Just as the master and servant were discussing, there was a hurried knock on the door.
The old cow roared. "What kind of rascal is knocking on the door? I wonder if this is Young Master's courtyard."
"Grandpa Ox, it's me, Little Zhang."
Li Jun shot a look at the old bull and the old bull quickly shouted, "Young Master told you to scram!"
Li Jin almost fell off his chair. 'Old Ox, what kind of comprehension ability is this?' He kicked Old Ox's butt and hurriedly said, "Come in."
Li Jin felt like kicking didn't let him vent his anger, so he gave the old cow another kick.
He rubbed his butt before slowly opening the door, "What are you still standing there for? Didn't you hear young master call you in?"
Zhang Jian was stupefied, but he did not dare to be slow in the slightest. He obediently walked into the room and bowed to Li Jin. Furthermore, he told Li Jin everything that had happened.
"Then this young master has an eighty percent chance of success. Did you hear that, old cow? " Li Jin looked at the old bull.
"Me understands, the Liu Estate is going to frame us." Old Cow said ingratiatingly.
"You silly thing, do you even understand beyond the walls?" Li Jin almost kicked Old Ox's butt again.
The old cow hurriedly said, "Young master, I understand."
"Little Zhang, you did well. Go to the accounting office and claim your reward." Li Jun looked at Zhang Genji and said with a smile.
"Thank you for your reward, Young Master. This subordinate will take his leave." Zhang Jian clasped his fists and was about to leave.
The old cow quickly walked forward and hugged Little Zhang, who was about to leave, and said, "Young Master, I'm sending off Little Zhang."
Xiao Zhang's face turned red, "Ox Bro, can you be a little weaker?"
"Little Zhang, your physical fitness isn't good. You still need to train more." the old cow said innocently as he let go of his arm.
"Brother Niu's teachings are correct."
"…"
The old cow smiled triumphantly, thinking that life was as lonely as the snow. Other than Laohei, no one else could be a match for me.
Li Jin listened to the sound and knew that the old cow was playing tricks on him. Li Jin didn't want to bother with him, so he just let him go.
"..."
It was late in the night, and the maids and servants had all gone back to rest. A burly man wearing a nightgown was carrying an iron rod as he searched the garden.
Due to the heavy dew on the autumn night, a layer of soil was completely different from the soil on the side. There was a layer of heavy dew on the soil. The big man thought, this should be it.
He began to hiss and hiss as he took the paper. He was extremely happy. After probing down two or three times, he poked a hard lump. The big man quickly threw away the soil and slipped away, not caring if the soil had been replanted or not.
"..."
"Caw Caw!"
The light was still on in the Washing Garden, and when he heard the sound, he knew it was the silly old cow, because the old cow had to give him a signal, so he let him go.
"Come in!"
The old cow excitedly pushed open the door. "Young Master, I've got it."
A golden bundle appeared before him.
