An assassin? Call me the Master of Raising Prices! - Chapter 414
Time passes by quickly, and when it is midnight, just close your eyes and open them again.
Without Zhuque’s urging, Zhao got up and put on his shoes, washed two handfuls at will and moved his body, then pushed the door open and walked out.
When Zhuque, who was waiting outside the door, saw him coming out, he couldn’t help but worry: “It’s not midnight yet, just two minutes later, otherwise, would he go back and lie down for a while?”
“It’s not good to sleep too much, it’s enough at midnight. I’m just afraid I won’t wake up, so I ask you to call me.” Zhao leaned on the railing, his expression was a little dazed, and his words were a little inconsistent.
“Thank you.”
Zhuque was surprised, turned his head to stare at Zhao Ju’s face, and said curiously: “What’s wrong with you today? Why are you so polite to me?”
“As etiquette. We are also scholars after all…”
“Puchi.” Zhuque covered his mouth and smiled.
She became more and more curious, so she simply held Zhao Ju’s hand and raised her eyebrows and asked, “What kind of scholar are you? Which book of the Four Books and Five Classics can you memorize? What’s wrong? Is it…”
As he said that, Suzaku raised his toes and slowly pressed them on. Zhao was not polite, and hugged his arms and explained softly in Zhuque’s ear: “I’m fine, I’ve just been sleeping for too long in the past three or four days, my mind is dazed and confused and confused.”
“That’s how…” Zhuque raised his head and saw his confused face and staring blankly. He believed it in his heart.
The night wind blows by, bringing the bone-thrusting cold. Zhao was still empty and couldn’t help but shivered. He clenched his fists and felt a numbness from his fingers.
“Okay, OK, there’s something else. I’ll go eat something first and fill my stomach.”
“OK.”
The two walked with their backs, Zhao went to the cabin to find something to eat, while Zhuque turned his head and walked towards the cabin on the second floor.
Some servants were not asleep yet, and when they saw Zhao, they came in to find something to eat, and hurriedly brought out leftovers and served them to heat them. When the food was served, Zhao didn’t care whether it was leftovers. He grabbed the chopsticks and just slapped it. He was hungry for most of the day, so he couldn’t care about the quality. He would talk about it after eating.
In less than half a quarter of an hour, the food on the table was eaten completely. Zhao burped while taking the hot tea handed over by the servant, helping to relieve the greasiness in small mouthfuls.
Just as I was enjoying it, a rhythmic hawking sound came from outside the cabin: “Fish! Fish! Fresh fresh big fish I just caught.”
“Oh?” Zhao turned his head to find the source of the sound.
The servant standing next to him hurriedly said, “Sir, I’ll drive the fisherman away now! I didn’t sleep in the middle of the night, but I actually drove a boat to buy fish. I dared to disturb the good mood of the sir, it’s really…”
Before he could finish his words, Zhao raised his hand and waved it, put down the teacup and stood up and walked outside. He smiled while walking and said nostalgic: “I am also from Jiangnan. In August, it happens to be the time when the water is beautiful and the fish is fat. It is not necessary to buy two and try it.”
When he walked to the railing, Zhao looked around and finally saw the fisherman. He quickly shouted, “Fisherman, fisherman, are the fish in your frame fresh?”
The fisherman on the fishing boat quickly took out one from the fish frame and held it in his hand. He raised it high and replied: “Sir, you have just caught it and are still jumping around!”
Zhao narrowed his eyes and looked at it a few times. The fish in his hand was indeed quite large. From a distance, he looked like a pound, and he was really lively and very fresh.
“I saw the fisherman! This way, I will buy all the fish you have, but you have to send it to me!”
The fisherman nodded quickly, “Okay, thank you, thank you, sir, the old man will send you there immediately.”
“Hurry! The fish will be no longer delicious when they die!” Zhao urged. Seeing that the fisherman looked helpless, he quickly ordered the servant to go down and help move.
“You go down and move together too. Move quickly!”
The servant nodded, rolled up his sleeves and trousers, and developed a breath of turbid air, and gritted his teeth and walked down the boat.
There were two people on the fishing boat, one in front and one behind, and the three of them slowly moved towards the cabin. Finally, when the man passed by Zhao, his feet suddenly staggered and almost stood firm. Fortunately, Zhao was quick-eyed and quick-handed, and he supported him.
“Be careful, move in.”
The man nodded and bowed, “Mr. Xie is generous, Mr. Xie…”
“Go quickly and go quickly.” Zhao waved his hand, then raised his hands behind his back and leaned against the railing to watch. But his left hand clutched the cuffs, as if something was hidden.
When the three of them moved the fish into the cabin, Zhao was quite generous and threw out a piece of silver at will, “No need to find it, go back.”
“Thank you for your reward!” The two of them picked up the silver and walked down the boat with great gratitude.
The servant glanced at Zhao Ju, shook his head and cried in his heart, but when he saw that the fish had been moved, he simply lowered his head silently. It was this bow that made him miss the eye contact between Zhao and the two fishermen.
Buying fish seems to be just a trivial matter. The two fishermen come and walk quickly. The fishing boat floats and disappears in just a few breaths.
Until he could not see the fishing boat, Zhao waved his hand and ordered, “Go and steam two fish and come up and try it. If you want to eat it, just take it yourself, and you don’t need to report it to me.”
“Yes, sir. Let’s do it now.” The servant led the order to walk towards the kitchen.
Zhao stayed by the boat and didn’t move. He stood for a while before quietly looking around, making sure that no one walked towards his room with his hands behind his back.
The room was dim, and Zhao had no desire to light a candle, but just took out a fire stick and blew it on. With the fire of fireflies, I took out a letter with six circles from my sleeve.
Slowly tear open along the seal, and two pieces of paper slide out along the envelope. Zhao held the fire note in one hand and the paper in the other hand, approaching the fire light and reading it carefully.
There are not many words written on both sheets of paper, and each sheet is only a few hundred words on average. But there is a lot of information on the paper, including the rough known situation in Luzhou, and the rest is information about the future.
After a rough look, Zhao frowned. After shook his head slightly and sighing, he took out the map of the morning Luzhou and the detailed map of the territory of Daqi from the space.
When you look at the information sent by Liu Finger, carefully mark where you are dangerous and unable to leave; where you are slightly safe and you can try it.
After half a quarter of an hour, Zhao put down the charcoal and wiped his hands with a handkerchief. He clearly planned several routes, but he still frowned tightly and sighed repeatedly.
“How come you can’t find the details of Cangzhou and Shuozhou?” Zhao gritted his teeth and picked up the two pieces of paper on the table and looked at it.
There was no change, the most critical pass to Beijing: Cangzhou and Shuozhou did not say any information.
“Why is Liu Finger so careless! These two states are unclear. No matter how smooth and stable the road ahead is, it will still be useless!”
Looking down at the territory map, all the routes drawn on it need to pass through Cangzhou or Shuozhou. He lowered his eyebrows, and the bitterness filled his heart.
“Can you choose one of two…”
“Are you gambling for luck?”
