If you are wandering around the world, how can you avoid getting stabbed? Everyone knows this.
Similarly, Xiao Han also knew that he could not hide what he did in Luoyang City from everyone.
It's just that this matter has been quiet for so long, and now it was suddenly mentioned, which made him shocked and a little lost.
Just now, the man's gesture asking for money attracted Xiao Han's attention, which also inadvertently helped him get out of his nervous state.
Throwing a few gold leaves casually, Xiao Han, who quickly stabilized his mind, saw that the man just raised his hand and waved it in the air, then grabbed all the scattered gold leaves in his hand. The movement seemed to be with an indescribable ease.
random.
"With this ability, it would be a waste not to steal money from bags on the street!"
Cursing secretly in his heart, Xiao Han also stretched out two fingers to rub them together and asked the man: "Where did you learn this gesture for asking for money?"
The man opposite slowly put the gold leaves in his hand in front of his eyes and inspected them one by one: "I learned it from the person who sold the information."
"The person who sells information?" Xiao Han couldn't help but rolled his eyes, "That's the guy you said you met in Chang'an, right? What, you spent money to buy information?"
Perhaps he was very satisfied with the quality of the gold. While handing them over to the charming and impatient woman who had been waiting behind him for a long time, the man smiled and said to Xiao Han, "Here they are."
Xiao Han was a little surprised and asked: "Really? This doesn't seem like your style. Aren't you always doing business without capital?"
The man shook his head slowly and said to Xiao Han seriously: "That was before. Since you took me out of the dungeon two years ago, I have understood a truth: you have to pay for what you want. Fairness, this
Things are important!”
"Ahem, you also say it's fair?"
When he heard the word "fair", Xiao Han's eyes almost rolled to the sky!
These two words, uttered from the mouth of a murderer who kills without blinking an eye, seem to be a kind of irony no matter how you look at them.
"Then according to what you said, I saved you in the first place, but now you turn against me and ask for money. Isn't it unfair to treat your savior like this?" Xiao Han asked sarcastically.
"No, that's fair!"
Facing Xiao Han's mocking words, the man's expression remained unchanged and he still smiled and said: "We have fulfilled the conditions for you to save us in Guangping Fucheng. So now we don't owe you, and you don't owe us either.
!What do you want to know, get money in exchange, this is fair."
"You...well, if you say it's fair, then let's call it fair."
Xiao Han sighed. He knew that he couldn't explain to this person because they were not the same people at all.
After coughing slightly, Xiao Han asked directly: "Then why did you go to Chang'an this time? And how did you meet the person you mentioned?"
The man shrugged and said casually: "It's okay to go to Chang'an. We are all innocent now. We are passing by the capital and just went in for a stroll.
As for that guy, I have known him for a long time. When I saw him sneaking out of the back door of his house, I went up and asked him casually. After hearing the news, I thought I could exchange some money with you, so I came here.
"
Xiao Han frowned. He didn't quite believe what the man said: "Who is that guy? Where did he get the news, and why did he say that I killed him?"
The man chuckled: "Haha, that guy is just a rat who makes a living by reselling information. Even if you tell me, you can't know him. As for those people who died in your hands, that's my guess. He didn't know."
"What did you guess?" Xiao Han raised the corners of his mouth slightly when he heard this, and then asked the man: "Why?"
The man shrugged again: "No reason, but when I heard him finish what happened, I knew it was you who did it!"
Xiao Han touched his nose and said with a strange expression: "Then I said you guessed wrong?"
Hearing this, the man did not refute, but always stared at Xiao Han with a pair of eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
Xiao Han's face turned a little red when he was looked at like this, but fortunately it was evening now and the sky was dim, so he couldn't see clearly.
"Are there many people in Chang'an who are interested in this matter?" Xiao Han calmed down and asked again.
The man did not hesitate, nodded and said: "Quite a few, at least before he met me, he had already sold the news seven or eight times."
"Who is buying it?" Xiao Han asked.
"This... is more complicated."
At this time, the man had a reluctant expression on his face, and at the same time he started rubbing his fingers again.
"So damn greedy!"
Seeing that he had burned so much gold on just a few innocuous questions, Xiao Han couldn't help but curse in his heart!
However, despite the scolding, he still took out a few gold leaves from his waist and threw them towards the man again: "Speak now!"
"Thank you for your consideration."
The man took the gold with a smile, checked its quality skillfully, and continued: "I heard from him that those who buy the news are some important officials in the court, and there are also those big families with seven sects and five surnames, um, Bald Donkey and Lao Dao
Yes. By the way, there is also a steward, who seems to be from the Prince's East Palace. I haven't seen you in the past two years. Your enemies have increased a lot?"
"You need to take care of it!" Xiao Han cursed angrily, and then asked: "Those buyers are so powerful, they don't know how to check it themselves? How can they buy information from him?"
"It's different, it's different." The man shook his head and said: "Those people naturally have other channels to know these things, but in terms of speed and level of detail, they are incomparable to people who eat this bowl of rice professionally.
Look, isn’t it worth spending some money?”
"It's worth your money! What he's selling is my news!"
At this moment, Xiao Han couldn't help but cursed loudly, and then he was about to walk away, but suddenly stopped.
After flipping through his belt, he threw all the ten or so gold leaves left on his body to the man. Xiao Han said angrily: "These golds will be used as my deposit. If you have any important news in the future, come to me!"
The man held a handful of gold leaves and smiled so happily for the first time: "Madam, you see, this business is about making money! One time is enough for us to work hard for more than half a year. How about we also specialize in reselling information in the future?"
The woman's eyes were as charming as silk, she stretched out her hand and snatched all the gold from the man's hand. While counting the amount, she said: "Whatever, I can do anything."
The man laughed loudly: "Then it's settled. We will only sell the best news to those who need it most. It's fair to charge more money."
Xiao Han looked at the man and woman speechlessly. He estimated that there were not many rich men in the world who were as generous as him.
"Oh, by the way, why do you do this when you want money?" The man who consciously found a way to get rich suddenly remembered something, so he put away his smile and asked Xiao Han.
Xiao Han flicked his sleeves, turned around and left.
If you want to know the origin of this action, let’s wait until paper money appears!
After all, no one would be crazy enough to rub copper coins in their hands now.
