On the way Shen Hui was sent back, he saw Suxue moving freely and heading towards Chu Ji's lobby, and he suddenly became confused.
He grabbed the man who sent him and asked, "What happened to that woman? Why wasn't she locked up?"
The gangster sneered, "She is a woman, why should she be locked up? How can she escape?"
The roads at the bottom of the mountain and up the mountain are all guarded. They are all dangerous places that only one man can block and no one can access. Who can escape?
Is it possible to jump off a cliff?
joke!
Suxue inquired about the information and went back to report to Shen Mingzhu, "Miss, Shen Hui went to discuss with the boss and wanted them to let him go immediately and then get rid of us."
Shen Mingzhu was playing with the exquisite ball in her hand. She said calmly: "Let him jump around."
It's strange that the dragon crossing the river listened to him.
Nearly ten days passed in a row, and the midsummer sun was scorching. Fortunately, they lived in the mountains, so they had a refreshing breeze, especially in shady areas, where it would still be chilly.
The men guarding the mountain gate looked at the brothers down the mountain and cheered excitedly, "Go and tell the boss that they are back!"
The people he was talking about were the people who went home with stewards Zhang Huai and Shen Hui to report the news and withdraw money.
When Chu Ji heard this, he immediately led his troops to open the hall, and also asked people to bring Shen Mingzhu, Shen Hui and others to the hall.
The lobby is made of natural caves, and it's so gloomy inside that you feel eerie and cool as soon as you walk in.
Shen Mingzhu was weak and couldn't help but straighten her back. When Suxue saw it, she immediately put on a blouse she had brought with her.
When Shen Hui saw that she was acting like a wealthy lady, his nose was so angry that he twisted his nose. When he saw his steward come back, he became proud again.
Shen Mingzhu sees that you are still arrogant, today is the day you die!
He glanced at Shen Mingzhu, extremely arrogant and arrogant.
Shen Mingzhu ignored him, saluted Chu Ji very politely, and then sat down aside.
As for Shen Hui, who considers himself a member of a wealthy family, he naturally looks down on Chu Ji, not to mention showing courtesy and not even looking at him.
Chu Ji glanced at him coldly and asked, "Did you get the money?"
Zhang Huai immediately stepped forward and had several wooden boxes brought up. He also personally held a pile of things on a pallet and handed them over.
Chu Ji asked someone to pick it up and turn it over. Even though he was calm, he was laughing and beaming with joy.
"Haha, hahaha, boys, we have given out one hundred thousand taels, one hundred thousand taels of silver, hahaha!"
Shen Hui was shocked, what one hundred thousand taels? Wasn't it the agreed three thousand taels?
How can one Shen Mingzhu get one hundred thousand taels!
Shen Mingzhu spoke calmly at this time, "Zhang Huyuan, didn't you agree that you want five hundred thousand taels?"
Zhang Huai turned around and said respectfully: "Miss, time is too short. It is difficult to collect 500,000 taels in one time. Moreover, the fifth wife is ill in bed. Although Master Nan is feeling better, he cannot get out of bed. Miss Qiang's appearance is ruined. Almost crazy. Therefore, there is no one in the family who can take charge of important affairs. The seventh master and third master jointly help handle this. They asked the stewards to take all the cash. If there was not enough money, they helped to scrape it together. Others, I'm afraid I have to wait for the shop, land, and some antiques to be converted..."
Before Zhang Huai could finish speaking, Shen Hui fainted with a "dong" sound, his teeth clenched, and his face was like gold paper.
Shen Mingzhu snorted softly, without looking at him, and said to Chu Ji: "Master of Dazhai, do what we said before still count?"
Even Suxue was startled. When had the young lady discussed the strategy with the Dragon Crossing the River?
