"Oh? What did Brother Zhang do to apologize to Li?"
Li Mu looked at Zhang Shihong who was saluting him, and said calmly: "Brother, I can't afford such a great gift from Brother Zhang."
Zhang Shihong was sweating on his forehead: "Brother Li, I am really fooled by the lard. Seeing that Brother Li is bold, chivalrous and capable, I thought of plotting against Brother Li to prevent the destruction of my Zhang family."
disaster.
In fact, it is not my brother who is willing to do such a thing, but it is actually a monster with amazing magical powers. How can ordinary people like us, ordinary people, resist? We just want to find a way out!"
Li Mu chuckled: "If you want to survive, do you want to push others to death?"
Zhang Shihong remained silent, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and his clothes were soaked in sweat in an instant.
Li Mu was too lazy to say more to this person, so he passed him by and returned to the courtyard.
Zhang Shihong stood at the door of the house with a gloomy face, not knowing how to deal with himself for a moment.
Hu Yunniang was a few steps behind Li Mu. She turned to look at Zhang Shihong with a frosty face: "Zhang Juren, my master is a kind-hearted man and will not punish you, but I am a petty person. We are not done with this matter! You plotted against my master and will Yun be killed."
My mother also plotted to get involved. If I hadn’t still had some skills, I would have died at the hands of evil monks long ago.”
Zhang Shihong saluted Hu Yunniang and said: "Steward Zhang, this matter is my fault. Please show me your noble hand and let me go. I am very grateful to you!"
Hu Yunniang rolled her eyes and said: "My master likes the chicken fat yellow stones and the fake jade you gave me. I heard that your family has a fake jade mine, and the chicken fat yellow mine seems to be somewhat similar to your Zhang family."
Related..."
Zhang Shihong said hurriedly: "I will give all the mines to Brother Li! I will also choose the top grade of the chicken-yellow stone and give it to Brother Li one hundred square meters a month!"
Hu Yunniang looked upright: "Is it possible that my master is coveting mineral deposits like yours? If you give it to my master, how can he accept it?"
He lightly slapped his face and said: "Brother Li has such a heroic spirit, how can he covet such petty profits as mine? This mine is not for Brother Li, but for Butler Hu!"

Hu Yunniang smiled sweetly and said: "Oh, I don't dare accept this big gift from you!"
She looked at a maid next to her and said: "I'm talking about Steel Egg, didn't our grandson just open a jewelry shop for our master? Ask him if there is a shortage of stones for ornaments now?"
p>
The maid is tall and thick, and her name is Liu Gangdan.
It was the daughter of the former chief escort of the Hehui Escort Bureau, who was good at using a pair of iron rods and hammers. Later, the escort agency offended the Sanxian Sect, and the masters of the Sanxian Sect killed most of the people in the escort agency. It happened that this daughter and her father
I was angry and went out in anger, but I escaped this disaster.
After this big change, Liu Gangdan's temperament changed drastically. The girl who was originally heartless suddenly became silent. Her family's martial arts was not trivial. She practiced hard at the moment. After five years, she became successful in the martial arts.
A pair of iron hammers swept across the Sanxian Gate.
Slaughter all the more than 300 members of Sanxianmen, leaving no chickens or dogs behind!
Later, it was discovered that the reason why his own escort agency was destroyed had a lot to do with the local prefect. The treasures escorted in the escort agency were actually corrupted by the prefect and became the property of the prefect.
Liu Gangdan was so angry that he stormed into the magistrate's office and beat the magistrate to pieces in the street. He also hammered his family members into a pulp. Then he beat several police officers to death and left in tears.
This act alarmed Chao Gang, who naturally became a wanted criminal. He had no choice but to escape to the Moyan Mountain outside Qinghe County to survive. Finally, he was brought to the Li family by Hu Yunniang and became a domestic servant.
After hearing what Hu Yunniang said, Liu Gangdan said naively: "I'll ask Mr. Sun right now!"
Zhang Shihong shouted: "I just go, I just go, how dare I bother this sister to come forward!"
She nodded to Hu Yunniang, asked about the location of Li Ji's jewelry store, and led a group of servants to the front street.
Seeing him walking away, Hu Yunniang turned around and returned to the courtyard.
At lunch, Sun Honglie came to Li Mu and said, "Sir, Zhang Shihong and Zhang Juren came to take care of our business today and bought a lot of jewelry, saying they would be given to the wives and concubines at home."
Li Muchao: "What's next?"
Sun Honglie was stunned, and after a moment of hesitation, he said: "Then he invited me to a brothel for drinking, and then he went to Silver Hook Gambling House for a gamble."
He said to Li Mu: "It was a bad luck to win this game. I lost a lot of things. The fake jade mine gave me twelve chess pieces, three thousand taels of silver and a house."

When Sun Honglie said this, he took out a handful of banknotes, land deeds, and mineral transaction documents from his arms: "
This person obviously gave me things on purpose so that I could hand them over to the master."
He took out a small brocade box again: "But I think his most important thing is to give this chess piece to the master."
Li Mu reached out to take the brocade box and looked at Hu Yunniang: "Yunniang, those two chess pieces he gave last time?"
Hu Yunniang hurriedly took out two chess pieces, one black and one white: "Master, they are here!"
Li Mu put all the two chess pieces into the brocade box, and then put the brocade box into the storage gourd with a thought: "This Shihong's crime is pitiful and hateful. Let's let this matter go. You can't go to him in the future."
trouble."
Everyone hurriedly responded.
In the afternoon, Li Mu left the house and went shopping with Hu Yunniang.
When he came to the world of the Great Yin Dynasty, Li Mu had never wandered around so relaxedly as he did today.
When he first came here, he was very worried that others would kill him, and even slept with one eye closed. Later, when he became successful in practicing qi, this anxiety was alleviated, but after all, he still couldn't gain a foothold here, and he still had great anxiety in his heart.
A sense of crisis.
It wasn't until I bought a house and purchased furniture in Qinghe County that my heart settled down.
Now I am walking around the city with Hu Yunniang, and I see many shops along the street. There are many beggars and thieves on the street. The streets in the city are dirty and messy. From time to time, I can see people lying on the street moaning and calling for help, but no one cares.
These are the victims who fled into Qinghe County from the neighboring county. Now that they have come here, those who have the strength can find work, those who have no strength can do other things, and the rest are begging for food on the streets.
Li Mu walked on the street for a while and met a dozen beggars. After Li Mu gave these beggars some food, many beggars nearby immediately gathered around and kowtowed to beg for food.
Li Mu sighed and said to Hu Yunniang: "Starting from tomorrow, we will build a porridge shed. We will also give porridge to the people to drink. We can save as many as we can."
Hu Yunniang said: "Nowadays, there are a lot of beggars and children in the city, and selling children and girls is not uncommon. Our little porridge shed can only be a drop in the bucket, and we can't save a few people."
Li Mu said: "I will save you if you can, but I want peace of mind."
The two of them were talking and walking, passing through the beggars. When they were about to return home, they saw a middle-aged Taoist priest walking in front of them.
This man was holding a chess piece in his hand, with the four words "Iron mouth cut straight" written on it. After seeing Li Mu and Hu Yunniang, this man suddenly stopped, looked at Li Mu up and down, and said:
"Young Master, looking at your face, there is a frown between your eyebrows. I am afraid that the disaster will only come in an instant..."
