Businessmen are always very good at observing people's behavior. Boss Song glanced at it and got a little idea.
"The night has passed. Is this girl still willing to join us?" Boss Song asked.
Ruyi had almost finished eating. She put the porridge bowl in front of her, wiped the corners of her mouth with a silk scarf, and said with a smile: "Of course I do."
Boss Song asked the others: "Do you have any objections?"
Everyone shook their heads, having long lost the arrogance and arrogance of yesterday.
"Huh? Where is Mr. Ji? Have you seen him?" Boss Song asked.
Everyone shook their heads: "I didn't see him again after everyone went back to rest yesterday. He didn't come down to eat this morning either. Maybe he was feeling unwell."
Boss Song went to Mr. Ji's room in person and opened the door, only to find that it was empty and there was no sign of him at all. He was not there and all his belongings were gone.
Boss Song became suspicious, walked into the house, and saw a note left on the table, the content of which was as follows: "I have something going on at home, so I'm afraid I can't continue to participate. I'll take my leave first. I wish you all the best."
Boss Song stamped his feet, took the note, walked downstairs to the hall and lamented: "Why did Mr. Ji leave just as soon as he said he was leaving? It took a lot of effort to gather ten people, but when he left, there were only nine left..."
We have to wait again... If we keep waiting like this, when will it end!"
Among all the people, only Ruyi knew what exactly happened. The impostor must have thought that the matter was exposed and was afraid that it would cause a big fuss and he would not be able to escape, so he quickly found an excuse and ran away.
There are only a few capable people and strangers. For such a long time, we have only managed to collect ten people, including the liars and fakes. It is not easy to wait for one more person.
Ruyi didn't want to waste any more time, so she came up with an idea. She sent a message in a secret voice and asked Sumiao to take on her real form and pretend to be a capable person to apply.
After receiving the order, Sumiao floated out and landed at the entrance of the alley behind the inn. Looking around, no one showed up in her true form, and she walked into the inn leisurely.
Seeing a stranger coming in, the waiter hurriedly stopped him: "Sir, I'm sorry, we are not doing business right now. You can go stay somewhere else. The inn at the end of this street is also owned by our boss, where can you go?"
That’s fine.”
Sumiao laughed, raised her arm and pointed at Boss Song in the hall and said, "That must be your boss."
The waiter was a little confused, thinking that he didn't reveal it yet, so how did he know it? Boss Song didn't really look like a wealthy person from the outside. He farmed in the countryside in his early years, and his face had a weather-beaten look, and his clothes were also very poor.
Wear less luxurious silk and satin and more comfortable fabrics. No matter how you look at it, you are just an ordinary person.
Sumiao didn't talk to the waiter anymore, walked straight into the hall, smiled and said to Boss Song: "Don't you still send people? Count me in."
Everyone's eyes were focused on Sumiao. He had a handsome face and a smile. He looked like a scholar.
"You are..." Boss Song looked at him carefully.
Sumiao said: "I watched the stars at night and saw evil spirits breeding in the Biluo Sea, so I decided to get rid of them. When I came to Ping'an City and inquired about it, I heard that a boss was gathering people to go together. I then calculated the hexagrams.
If the picture shows a 'not full' sign, I'm afraid the boss is still short of manpower."
Boss Song clapped his hands and said with a face full of joy: "Ah, you are really a master. We happen to be short of someone here. It would be great if you could come. Don't worry, I will never treat you badly during this trip.
