Chapter 103: Stay for the time being
This is a quiet courtyard. A middle-aged man in his thirties and quite rich is sitting on a chair, allowing two beautiful maids to comb his hair. In front of him was a mirror half a person tall, illuminating the figure in front of the mirror so clearly that it was very clear.
The middle-aged man looked at himself in the mirror, touched his face and nodded with satisfaction, and said with emotion: "This is a good thing from the Royal Trading Company of the Ming Dynasty. I have only used the facial cleanser for more than half a month and I look much younger. It seems that I have to buy more next time."
A petite maid standing behind him smiled and said, "The master is not old. You are no different from those young scholars now. Your skin is even tenderer than our daughter's family. If you go back to Jiangnan next time, you will have to stare out your eyes when you see it."
"Hahaha... You little hoof is really good at talking, it's not in vain that I love you."
Although he knew that the other party was flattering him, the middle-aged man couldn't help laughing, turned his head, stretched out his fat hand and pinched the maid's white little face. After being pinched, the maid was not angry, but instead quickly threw a charming look at the middle-aged man.
Just as the middle-aged man was teasing the two maids, a burst of rapid footsteps sounded outside, and then a voice rang out: "Master, Lord Li, the commander of Jiangning Guard, is here!"
"Well...why is he here? Shouldn't he wait for that guy to arrive in Jiang Ningwei at this time?"
The middle-aged man was slightly stunned and then said, "Let him come in."
After saying that, he stood up and walked to a chair in the middle and sat down, and the two maids also stood behind him.
Soon, Li Zheng limped in with the help of two servants.
Seeing Li Zheng in a messy and covered in blood, the middle-aged man was shocked and stood up and exclaimed: "Mr. Li, why did you look like this? What happened to you?"
Li Zheng endured the pain and said, "What else can happen? Of course I'm beaten up."
The middle-aged man looked disbelief, "What a joke? Looking at the entire Jinling City, who else dares to hit you Li Da... Huh..."
Speaking of this, the middle-aged man exclaimed, and he immediately thought that it did not mean that there was no one now. He immediately blurted out: "Is that person back?"
Li Zheng gritted his teeth and said, "Isn't this nonsense? Who else can beat me except him? Hiss..."
At the end, Li Zheng was so painful that he couldn't help but moaned while holding his butt.
"You are all dead people. Why don't you help Lord Li sit down quickly... No, go find Zhang Ruocai and let Lord Li lie down."
After a while of rushing, a soft collapse was carried over, and Li Zheng then fell onto him.
"No need to worry." Li Zheng waved his hand and signaled the maid who came to serve tea to take away the tea cup. "Shopkeeper Wang, I have already been exposed, and I can't stay in Jinling anymore. I took the risk this time to let you send me away as soon as possible. Since the matter has been revealed, with the temper of that evil star, I will never let me go."
Manager Wang frowned: "Do you want to go to Jiangnan?"
"Yes... that evil star's hand can't reach Jiangnan yet, so it's still safe now. You can just send me to Hangzhou. Anyway, I've made a lot of money in the past two years, which is enough for me to eat and drink for the rest of my life." Speaking of this, a mixed expression of happiness and unwillingness appeared on Li Zheng's face.
"What about your family members? Do you ignore them?" Manager Wang frowned and asked. According to him, Li Zhengjiang Ningwei's house had a main wife, a six-bedroom concubine, three sons and two daughters.
"I don't care about them anymore," Li Zheng said dejectedly: "Now my family must have been surrounded. If I have to force them to rescue them, I might have to get myself in."
Looking at Li Zheng who was like a defeated rooster, a look of contempt flashed in Manager Wang's eyes, and he ignored his wife and children. This person's coldness and weakness can be seen.
He then asked again: "Of course there is no problem to send you to Hangzhou, but I would like to ask if your prince knows your relationship with me."
Li Zheng snorted lightly: "Of course he doesn't know. I'm not stupid. There is no third person in our relationship except you and me."
“That’s good.”
Manager Wang sat on the chair, gently patted the table with his right hand and fell into deep thoughts for a long time.
Seeing that Manager Wang hadn't spoken for so long, Li Zheng was a little anxious and his face suddenly became cold.
"Shopkeeper Wang, are you willing to help this? Give me a correct letter? If I can't do it, I won't be shameless and ask you for help. I will naturally find another way."
After that, I had to struggle to stand up.
"Oh... Lord Li, don't be excited. I'm trying to figure out a solution. Lu Liu and Hong Xing, why are you two still standing there? Why don't you serve Lord Li quickly?"
Seeing this, the two maids behind him went to support Li Zheng, and while comforting him softly, he asked him to lie on the soft collapse again.
After Li Zheng was lying down again, Manager Wang then smiled and said, "Mr. Li, we have known each other for so long. Don't you know who I, Wang Dazhang, are you? I have never said anything about my friend, and I never refuse to help me, but you don't know anything. Just yesterday, our two ships were heading to Jiangnan. If Lord Li wants to leave, he has to wait for a ship ten days later. This is the reason why I was embarrassed just now."
Manager Wang spoke very sincerely, and was sorry while saying that, which made Li Zheng feel a little skeptical.
"Mr. Li, do you think this is good? You have a few days to rest here and recover from your injuries. I will let Lu Liu and Hong Xing take care of you. After a few days, when the boat from Jiangnan comes, I will send you away as soon as possible. What do you think?"
"this……"
Li Zheng hesitated a little, thinking that when Yang Feng was the Qianhu House of Jiangdongmen, he was a hundred households under Yang Feng. He also knew very well how his boss had climbed to the position he is today.
Although Yang Feng is usually very tolerant and generous to his subordinates, the premise of doing so is that you have not harmed his interests, but what he has done in the past two years is no longer a simple thing to damage his interests. It is digging his roots. If Yang Feng is caught, he can't imagine what the outcome will be.
But then he thought, Jinling City is so big and with a population of millions, it is not so easy for Yang Feng to find himself. What's more, through more than two years of contact, he also knew that Manager Wang was also a man of great power, otherwise he would not be able to eat so much food from Jiangningwei.
After thinking for a long time, Li Zheng made up his mind: "Okay, I'll stay here for the time being, but I hope that Manager Wang can keep his promise and send me out as soon as possible. Otherwise, you also know what would happen if I fell into Yang Feng's hands!"
