70. Chapter 70 Flower Brocade in Yanjing City 10

"This little girl is quite clever." The shopkeeper pulled down the black cloth from his face, turned his face and glanced at Xiao Erhei, "You tie her up, let's look for anything valuable first.

.”

Xiao Erhei laughed obscenely and rubbed his rough hands together, "Then can I..."

"Bullshit." The shopkeeper kicked him on the butt. "I think this girl is not old. She is so small. She is probably a teenager. If you touch her, she won't be worth anything."

Old Man Liu chuckled and said, "I see she spends a lot of money. I guess she is a girl who ran away from some family. When you find the money soon, are you afraid that you will have no place to find a wife?"

After hearing this, the shopkeeper immediately ran to the cabinet, opened the cabinet door excitedly and took the new bundle to the table. "Let's go, we'll look at it when we get back."

Xiao Erhei had already tied up Arnold with cloth strips and directed the two big men at the door, "You guys carry her up."

The two big men didn't say anything. They obediently lifted Arnold up and followed him. A few figures braved the fine snow and ran to the inconspicuous woodshed. The shopkeeper stepped forward and pressed a few buttons on the wall, and the machine sounded.

A passage suddenly opened in the wall. Several people filed in, obviously they often do this kind of thing.

After the secret passage is another courtyard, which looks like it should be right next to the inn. Walking into a small room, several people stared intently at the package in the shopkeeper's hand.

The two big men put Arnold on the ground, quietly exited the house and stood guard at the door.

"Shopkeeper, take a quick look, see what valuable things the little girls have in their bags." Xiao Erhei said anxiously with a greedy look on his face.

Old man Liu chuckled and said, "Definitely not less."

The package was opened and there were several sets of newly purchased cotton-padded clothes and a small money bag. The shopkeeper took it into his hand and weighed it, "It's not very heavy. It doesn't look like much."

"Open it, take a look, and carefully calculate how many there are." Old man Liu looked expectant, "It's still the same old rule, I take one-tenth."

"That's natural. How could we catch such a good fat sheep without you." Xiao Erhei patted Old Man Liu on the shoulder, with a look of excitement on his face.

The shopkeeper put the candlestick on the table aside, opened the money bag and poured out the contents. After a few soft sounds, the broken silver rolled down on the table like pieces of stones. He shook unwillingly.

After a few clicks, a few light silver notes fell from the bag and lay smoothly on the table. "There are still silver notes."

Old man Liu excitedly grabbed a silver note in his hand, "One thousand taels, what a big deal."

When the shopkeeper heard this, a cold light flashed in his eyes. "It seems that we are going to make a fortune this time. This woman must be a daughter of some family, and she can make a lot of money if she sells it." He coughed lightly and moved toward her.

Xiao Erhei winked and said, "Xiao Erhei, go get the wine. We want to celebrate properly."

Xiao Erhei responded, turned around and went out to get the wine. After a while, he came back with a jar of wine in his hand. "It's snowing outside, drink some wine to keep warm."

"That's that." Old man Liu took the wine jar and poured the wine into the teacup on the table. "After finishing this, we can rest for a year and a half." After that, he poured the wine into the cup.

Drink it all.

The shopkeeper slowly put down the cup in his hand, "We can rest for a year and a half, but you can rest for a lifetime."

Old Man Liu's expression changed, and a stream of blood suddenly flowed out of the corner of his mouth, "You...you..."

On a dark, windy night, it's the right time to kill someone.
