Twenty-four Apology

After sorting it out, including the three gold ingots, Chen Mo had almost 600 taels of silver in his hand.

It’s equal to his salary for more than ten years.

Chen Mo took out the waist badge of the general flag from his arms. It had the large characters "Pro-Army Command Department" engraved on it, and a few small characters of his identity below. Chen Mo gently rubbed it with his hand.

But now, he finally has a foothold in the capital.

He put away his waist tag and stuffed the banknotes he could bring with him into his arms. As for the three gold ingots, he could only wait until he left them behind the yamen and find a bank to exchange them for banknotes.

This is the Zhenfusi Yamen, and he has now been promoted to the general banner. No one should be so bold as to dare to come here to steal things.

Before leaving the room, Chen Mo remembered something again and quickly called up the system panel.

[Name: Chen Mo]

【Age:23】

[Available attribute points: 2]

[Gong method: Qi nourishing technique (reaching the peak) click to view details, feathering technique (first glimpse of the door)]

[Realm: Sixth Grade]

[Martial Arts: Black Tiger Fist (slightly successful), Tianhe Sword Technique, Bahuang Prison Suppression (slightly successful)]

[Talent: Immortality]

Chen Mo clicked on the details behind the Qi Nourishing Technique and found that after reaching the peak, there is another way to return to one's original nature.

In addition, the Qi Nourishing Technique can still be deduced by spending another five attribute points.

"Is this the effect of the last level of Qi Nourishing Technique?"

Chen Mo murmured, and then said to himself: "It seems that my guess is correct. The subsequent deduction of the Qi Nourishing Technique must be the Feathering Technique. After all, this is the last level, and it can still be deduced."

……

On the way back to the Yamen, Chen Mo bumped into Zhang Kai who was coming towards his residence.

Zhang Kai looked very excited when he saw Chen Mo: "Mo... No, General Qi, you are indeed here, I am looking for you."

"Looking for me?" Chen Mo narrowed his eyes and said, "Brother Zhang, are you here to give me money?"

He opened his mouth and hesitated: "Who else sent it?"

Seeing Zhang Zhang's dull look, Chen Mo laughed, stepped forward and hugged Zhang Zhang's neck, and said: "Brother Zhang, are you as polite to me as they are?"

"General flag..."

"We'll get along if we call you Zongqi. You and I are friends, so you should call me Brother Mo."

Zhang Kai is a man worth befriending. Li Qingshan’s case didn’t expose him. He doesn’t have many friends in the Zhenfu Division, so it’s not good if he gets too alienated.

"My subordinates dare not."

"And what you don't dare to do." Chen Mo joked, then took out a few banknotes from his arms, handed them to Zhang Kai, and said: "Take it."

"General flag... No, Brother Mo, this is it?"

"Have you forgotten the money I borrowed from you when I was in Jiaofangsi?" Chen Mo said.

Of course Zhang Kai didn't forget it. After all, it cost more than two hundred taels at that time, which was a lot of money for him. But now that Chen Mo has been promoted to the general banner, Zhang Kai no longer expects Chen Mo to pay it back.<

/p>

But he did say: "Brother Mo, did I lend you any money? Why don't I remember."

Chen Mo: "..."

"Don't pretend to be stupid here. Just take it if I tell you to." After saying that, Chen Mo was about to give it to him, but Zhang Zhang refused to accept it no matter what, and kept saying that he didn't lend him any money.<

/p>

"You kid." Chen Mo let go of his neck and said, "I have something to do tonight. I'll treat you to the Jiaofang Secretary tomorrow night."

"Brother Mo, if you can invite me, I'll do it."

"Don't argue with me. Didn't you agree last time that I'll invite you next time?" Chen Mo said. He couldn't always take advantage of others. Although others didn't say it verbally, they couldn't tell what they thought in their hearts.

……

After release.

A group of people found him and wanted to invite him to drink, but Chen Mo declined them one by one.

After returning to his residence and changing into casual clothes, Chen Mo went to the bank and exchanged all three gold ingots for silver notes, fifty taels each, six in total.

Originally, the bank wanted to lower the price, but when they saw Chen Mo's "accidental" exposure, he immediately gave it to him at the market price.

Then Chen Mo went to the Baiyu Tavern, got drunk and walked towards where Lin Bai lived.

When passing by a stall selling jewelry, Chen Mo saw a very beautiful jade hairpin. He thought he had not given Jiang Qi a gift yet, so he wanted to buy it.

"How much does this hairpin cost?" Chen Mo picked up the jade hairpin, looked at it carefully, and said.

"Twenty taels, no bargaining." The vendor held out two fingers and said.

"Too expensive...when..."

The waistband fell from Chen Mo's arms. Chen Mo put down the hairpin, bent down to pick it up, pretended to wave it in front of the vendor's eyes unintentionally, stuffed it into his arms again, and said: "Boss, can't...

It can be cheaper."

"Gulu..." the vendor swallowed his saliva: "Sir, you...what are you talking about? If you want, I can give you the small one."

"Why is this so embarrassing? It's cheaper, how much does it cost?" Chen Mo said.

"Two...two taels," the vendor said.

Chen Mo put down the wine jar, took out a piece of broken silver from his money bag and threw it to him.

It's not that Chen Mo was trying to blackmail him. Just like in his previous life, you can't even hope to get anything good at a roadside stall. This jadeite isn't a good variety either. It only costs you two taels of silver.

If you really want to blackmail him, just take it away without paying any money.

It has become a common phenomenon for Jin Yiwei not to pay for meals.

When leaving, Chen Mo glanced at the agate bracelet on the stall and said, "How much does this cost."

"One or two," said the vendor.

Chen Mo paid another one tael and bought the agate bracelet.

……

Night falls quietly.

Hearing the knock on the door, Lin Bai, who was chatting and laughing with Wang Ende and Xu Hao, said to Lin Xiaoer: "Xiaoer, go and open the door quickly."

Then he looked at the two of them and said with a smile: "It should be Chen Mo who is here."

The evening breeze of the summer night was slightly warm. Lin Xiaoer, who had just finished taking a bath, was wearing a blue silk dress, humming a small tune, and went to open the door.

As soon as I opened the courtyard door and saw Chen Mo, I couldn't help but frown: "Why is it you?"

The good mood before was all gone.

"Miss." Chen Mo held the wine jar, cupped his hands, and said, "I came to see the Lord. He asked me to come."

"Are you the one dad is waiting for?!" Lin Xiaoer's brows furrowed even more tightly, but she didn't fight Chen Mo again, apparently having learned the lesson from last time: "Come in."

"Miss Xie." Chen Mo looked up at her.

She took off the tight-fitting clothes she wore last time and wore Yanju's silk clothes. It was hard to hide her curves. Her small mouth was slightly pouted, and the aura of a young girl was unmistakable.

"What are you looking at?" Lin Xiaoer pouted and glared at Chen Mo.

Chen Mo smiled, then took out the agate bracelet from his arms and said, "Miss, I offended you a lot last time. This bracelet is my apology. I hope you have a lot of it, so don't take it personally."<

/p>

Chen Mo handed over the string of hands.

"If you want to bribe me with a bracelet, there's no way." Lin Xuer didn't answer.

"I heard that the lotus flowers in Heqingguan are in bloom. Can I take the lady to see them tomorrow?"

"Can't I go and see it myself? Can you take me there?" After taking the bracelet, Lin Xiaoer turned and walked away.
