Seeing Lu Xiaoxian's frustrated look, Chen Song said with a smile: "Xiaoxian, don't take what shopkeeper Cen says so seriously. I don't care how much this thing is worth. I care about your heart. As long as you have the heart, that's all."

It’s only worth a tael of silver, so I’ll treat it as a treasure!”

Lu Xiaoxian nodded, smiled bitterly at Cen Shaobai and said, "Shopkeeper Cen, if I buy jade next time, I must ask you to help me take a look first, so as not to be fooled again!"

Chen Song also gave a thumbs up to Cen Shaobai: "Shopkeeper Cen, you are really smart. With your ability, there will definitely be no problem in opening a jade shop! You must know that the wealthy families in Chang'an City, but everyone

Jade is considered a treasure!"

Cen Shaobai laughed and said, "I want to open a jade shop, but not now. I have other things to do now!"

Speaking of this, Cen Shaobai glanced at Yang Ke who was silent, shook his head and stopped talking.

Lu Xiaoxian guessed that Cen Shaobai still wanted to open a rouge and gouache shop first. Without Yang Ke, Cen Shaobai could not do it alone.

Thinking of this, Lu Xiaoxian said apologetically to Yang Ke: "Yang Ke, Miss Rouge's matter has never been resolved. You won't blame me, right?"

Lu Xiaoxian felt a little guilty. He had promised Yang Ke for so long, but did not take it seriously to help him. It seems that the next step is to help Yang Ke find someone. He must find Miss Rouge no matter what, and let the two of them

Reunion.

Hearing what Lu Xiaoxian said, Yang Ke hurriedly said: "Master Lu is willing to help me. I can't thank you enough. How can I blame you?"

Chen Song asked strangely: "Xiao Xian, what are you talking about?"

Lu Xiaoxian told Chen Song and his wife what happened to Yang Ke.

Chen Song and his wife were very sad after hearing this.

Lu Xiaoxian took out the portrait Yang Ke gave him from his arms and handed it to Cen Shaobai: "Shopkeeper Cen, please give me more copies of this portrait!"

Cen Shaobai took it doubtfully: "Xiao Xian, what do you want to do?"

"Chang'an is too big. It's difficult for me to find Miss Rouge with my own strength. I want to mobilize more people to help Yang Ke find Miss Rouge! So, I need more portraits!"

Cen Shaobai understood what Lu Xiaoxian meant, he nodded and said: "Xiaoxian, don't worry, I will draw as many as you need. It can be considered as my doing my best for Brother Yang!"

"Give me one when you've finished the drawing!" Lu Xiaoyi said, "I can help you and ask when I have nothing to do!"

"And me!" Li Si was not to be outdone. "There are many beggars in the streets and alleys of Chang'an City. They are the most well-informed. With the portrait, I can ask them to help me find out!"

"We, the old couple, can also do our part!" Chen Song and Yu said in unison.

After hearing what everyone said, Yang Ke's lips trembled. He suddenly stood up, left the table, moved two steps to the side, and fell to his knees with a plop: "Yang Ke can't repay you for your great kindness.

Yang Ke kowtows to you all!"

Everyone hurriedly helped Yang Ke up.

Yang Ke couldn't help but burst into tears.

…

After coming out of Yonghe Building, Lu Xiaoxian was about to go back to the gambling house. Halfway through, someone suddenly blocked his way.

Seeing that he didn't recognize any of the five or six people blocking the way, Lu Xiaoxian couldn't help but feel wary: "What are you going to do?"

The leader was a man in rich clothes. He smiled brightly and said: "You are Lu Baoguan, right? I have something I want to talk to you about. I wonder if I can do it for you?"

Lu Xiaoxian was a little hesitant, and the man in fine clothes seemed to have guessed what he was thinking: "We don't mean any harm. How about we find a teahouse together and chat over a drink?"

Seeing the sincerity on the man's face, Lu Xiaoxian followed him without thinking too much.

They came to a private room in a teahouse. Dr. Cha made tea and closed the door before leaving. Lu Xiaoxian asked directly: "What's the matter? Just tell me. I don't like beating around the bush."

There was a hint of admiration in the eyes of the man in fine clothes: "Lu Baoguan is really a cheerful person. Don't worry, let's drink tea first and talk slowly."

After hearing what the man in rich clothes said, Lu Xiaoxian was not in a hurry anymore. He nodded and said nothing.

After drinking tea for a while, the man in the rich clothes saw that Lu Xiaoxian looked calm and showed no sign of impatience, so he lost his temper and asked, "Has Lu Baoguan ever heard of the Qiankun Gambling House?"

Qiankun Casino?

Lu Xiaoxian heard from Shopkeeper Hu that the Qiankun Gambling House is a property under the name of Princess Anle. Could it be that these people are from the Qiankun Gambling House?

Lu Xiaoxian was confused in his heart, but there was no change on his face. He shook his head and said, "I haven't been in Chang'an for a long time, so I haven't heard of it!"

Lu Xiaoxian's answer made the man in rich clothes startled. Seeing that Lu Xiaoxian didn't seem to be joking, he had to say awkwardly: "Have Guan Lu ever heard of Princess Anle?"

Not only had he heard of Princess Anle Li Guo'er, but the relationship between Lu Xiaoxian and Li Guo'er was really extraordinary, but these words had nothing to do with these unrelated people.

Lu Xiaoxian said calmly: "Princess Anle and Princess Taiping divide the world of Chang'an. I have heard of this!" The first opportunity was seized.

The man in fine clothes breathed a sigh of relief. If Lu Xiaoxian had never even heard of Princess Anle, it would be a waste of time to explain.

The man in colorful clothes revealed his identity: "The Qiankun Gambling House is the property of Princess Anle! We are the people of the Qiankun Gambling House!"

People from Qiankun Casino?

Lu Xiaoxian immediately saw that the other party was lying, and he didn't bother to expose it. He said coldly: "My colleagues are enemies. When you come to me, you won't just invite me to tea. Are you trying to poach Tiantong Gambling House?"

Corner?"

The man in rich clothes was startled again, then laughed and said: "To be honest, we really want to recruit Lu Baoguan to Qiankun Casino. I wonder what Lu Baoguan wants?"

Lu Xiaoxian laughed and said: "Poaching corners is poaching corners. Don't talk about hiring respectfully or not. I don't like to hear this. Tell me, what price did your shopkeeper offer?"

Lu Xiaoxian's quick words always caught the man in fine clothes beyond expectations. He hurriedly said: "Whatever price Lu Baoguan wants, our shopkeepers will agree to it!"

As soon as the man in the rich clothes finished speaking, Lu Xiaoxian slammed the table, stood up, and sneered: "Who do you think I am, Lu Xiaoxian! No matter how high the price is, I will not pay you.

Let’s go. If I really leave with you, how can I still hang out in Chang’an City in the future? I’m not someone who ignores morality for the sake of money!”

The man in fine clothes couldn't help but was startled and asked: "Lu Baoguan, are you no longer considering it?"

Lu Xiaoxian left the tea room without looking back.

From the first time he met the other party, Lu Xiaoxian could tell that the other party could never be from the Qiankun Gambling House. Even if the Qiankun Gambling House really wanted to poach someone, it would not use such a clumsy method.

I can't hide it from Tiantong Gambling House.

The behavior of the man in fine clothes just now was clearly a test. Besides the people from Tiantong Gambling House, who else would test him?

…

Early the next morning, Lu Xiaoxian came to Cen's shop. Cen Shaobai's eyes were red and he handed over a stack of paper: "These are the portraits I copied overnight. There are eleven paintings in total. You can take it first. You are free.

I will draw again!”

Unexpectedly, Cen Shaobai was so concerned about this matter. Lu Xiaoxian took the portraits and looked through them one by one: "Great, it will be easier with these portraits. I will find someone to distribute them!"

Yang Ke looked at the two of them from the side, feeling grateful but saying nothing. He knew that anything else would be superfluous, so he could only cast a grateful glance at the two of them.

Lu Xiaoxian said to Yang Ke: "Yang Ke, I have something to say, I don't know whether I should say it or not?"

Yang Ke hurriedly said: "If my boss has anything to say, just tell me. Yang Ke is all ears!"

Lu Xiaoxian said solemnly: "Looking for Miss Rouge, we may find her in three to five days, or it may take three to five years, or even thirty to fifty years. You must be mentally prepared. Can you wait?"

?”

Yang Ke nodded firmly: "I can wait. Even if I can't find Rouge for the rest of my life, I will keep waiting!"

"I believe you!" Lu Xiaoxian's voice changed, "Waiting is a very tiring thing, and it can't be done without good health. Like you are now, you are in a daze every day, can't eat, can't sleep, you have to

It won't take long for your body to collapse. Brother Yang, think about it, if your body can't bear it, when we find Miss Rouge one day, but you don't have the chance to see her again, won't you be left with lifelong regrets?"

After hearing Lu Xiaoxian's words, Yang Ke's heart was shocked and he was speechless for a long time.

Lu Xiaoxian struck while the iron was hot: "With all due respect, if you don't change the situation as soon as possible, you might as well give up and find Miss Rouge!"

Cen Shaobai interrupted: "Sir, what do you mean?"

"Suppose we find Miss Rouge, but Yang Ke lets go and he is freed. But have you ever thought about what to do with Miss Rouge? Let her face this ending. Rather than that, it would be better not to find her. This way

It’s so unfair to Miss Rouge!”

"No! This must not be the case!" Yang Ke trembled all over. He grabbed Lu Xiaoxian's arm tightly and asked in a trembling voice: "Tell me, what should I do?"

Lu Xiaoxian could understand Yang Ke's mood. He asked: "Where did Miss Rouge get her name?"

"Because my family is a rouge maker!"

Lu Xiaoxian asked again: "Have you ever thought about how you will survive if you find Miss Rouge in the future?"

“We also do rouge!”

Lu Xiaoxian smiled slightly and said, "Then why wait until the future?"

Yang Ke looked at Lu Xiaoxian in shock.

"Your profession is to make rouge. If you put your mind on making rouge and have spiritual sustenance, your body will naturally get better slowly. In this way, you will have enough time to wait for the day when you find Miss Rouge.

!”

Yang Ke lowered his head and thought.

"Shopkeeper Cen originally planned to open a rouge shop, and wanted to leave it to you to run it. If Miss Rouge comes back one day in the future, wouldn't this be your home!"

Yang Ke raised his head and looked at Lu Xiaoxian and Cen Shaobai, but stopped talking.

"Finding Miss Rouge requires a lot of manpower and a lot of money. If you run the Rouge Shop well and earn money, you not only help shopkeeper Cen, but you also do your part to find Miss Rouge. What do you have?
