478: Those who wish take the bait

When Wu Zhongxian and others walked into the inn, the space in the store was not large, and there were five or six square tables. At this time, the tables were filled with merchants passing by, and there were also a few groups of barbarians who could be seen just from the appearance and decoration.

, the waiters in the store wandered between the square tables serving tea and water,

A middle-aged man who looked like a bookkeeper raised his head slightly and looked at Wu Zhongxian and others. At a glance, he saw that Wu Zhongxian's clothes were gorgeous and beautiful, and he was rich or noble. The people around him were even dressed in official uniforms of the Qin Dynasty. Except for the old man sitting behind them, who was simply dressed.

The middle-aged man was a little strange, but the latter didn't think much about it, what if he was a pawn feeding the horses.

The middle-aged man, who has cultivated the method of looking at people over the years, is sure that Wu Zhongxian is the person with the highest status among the people. Even if he is not a high-ranking official, he must be the heir of a large clan. He immediately puts down the account book in his hand and writes from the account.

Taiwan trotted all the way to Wu

Zhongxian stood next to him and said with enthusiasm and compliments: "Sir, sir, do you and your friends want to stay overnight or have a meal? Our store has sweet-scented osmanthus wine, which is famous throughout Minshan."

!Sir, would you like a drink?"

Hmm... The store is a bit interesting. The word "dining" is a term used exclusively by the royal family. The original origin of this word is because the food eaten by the royal family is all delicacies, beautiful and good, so it is called "dining".

This means that in a place like Minshan where no one cares, if this store dares not to avoid taboos, it will inevitably cause trouble if it is in the capital and other places.

Wu Zhongxian noticed that the store owner paused obviously while speaking. It was obvious that the latter knew the meaning of this word. The reason why the middle-aged man said this was for two reasons.

The first meaning is to please Wu Zhongxian and others. Although this person can see that Wu Zhongxian's status is by no means an ordinary person, he is probably an important official in the Qin Dynasty. Through this simple word, he can invisibly elevate Wu Zhongxian and others.

Identity, why not do it.

Moreover, if Wu Zhongxian and others are angry with the store because of this, it will undoubtedly prove the connection between Wu Zhongxian and others' background and the Empress of Qin. In the eyes of this middle-aged man, the purpose of Wu Zhongxian and others' trip to Minshan will be much clearer.

This is also the second purpose of the middle-aged man's words.

As expected of a man who has experienced the world for a long time, his thoughts are delicate enough. Wu Zhongxian first secretly motioned to the embroiderers beside him to keep their faces quiet, and then said with a smile: "We will spend the night here tonight, and we will have good wine and good food."

After saying that, Wu Zhongxian turned to look at the old fortune teller behind everyone, and asked with a smile: "Old man, just tell me what you want to eat, and I will help you arrange it."

"I'm free to do as I please." The old fortune teller remained unmoved and thought to himself: This guy must be digging a hole for me again!

He has been tricked by this bastard kid all the way, and now he has been tempered. No matter what you say, the old man always has an air of indifference.

The old man realized something during this trip: free is always the most expensive!

Wu Zhongxian didn't take the old man's vigilant expression to heart. He sat on an unoccupied seat without looking back. He took out a silver coin from his sleeve and threw it to the shopkeeper. He looked at the shopkeeper who was stunned and said: "

In this case, let’s serve up all your specialty dishes. If the taste is good, I will certainly reward you with a reward.”

The sparkling silver ingot immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the store. What Wu Zhongxian threw out was Da Qin Bao Yin. One ingot of silver can be exchanged for fifty taels at the store, and after living in this store for a month

In addition, the maximum amount of food and drink is only about three taels.

Everyone present was very envious of the shopkeeper meeting such a wealthy and wealthy customer, and the shopkeeper's hands holding the silver ingots could not help but tremble. The silver ingots in his hands were almost equivalent to the shop's two years' combined income.

Wu Zhongxian continued: "There is no need to look for them. All the horses we travel with are precious horses, and they must be taken good care of."

"Hello, sir! You must try our sweet-scented osmanthus wine! Although the taste is not as good as the Beijing wine, it still has a different flavor!" The shopkeeper hurriedly put the silver ingot into his arms, fearing that something might happen.

"Hmph! It's obviously the osmanthus wine from Minshan Jianlu that is the most authentic." Mo Jianqi sat aside and murmured. It could be seen that the girl was still worried about the store's boast.

Wu Zhongxian picked up the tea that the waiter had just handed over, and glanced at the people around him with his peripheral vision. The reason why Wu Zhongxian just threw a lot of gold and silver in front of everyone was to knock the mountain and shake the tiger.

This inn can be clearly seen beside the only road leading to Minshan from the outside world, so it seems that there is more to it than meets the eye.

Taking a step back, Wu Zhongxian did not believe that there were no hidden spies from other forces at such an important transit point for connecting with the outside world.

Wu Zhongxian's purpose is to send a signal to the people in Minshan, a signal that he is coming to Minshan.

From the conversation with Mo Jianqi from the Secret Intelligence Department, he learned that Minshan is not only complex in power, but also covers a very vast area. This place is located in the entire Minshan Mountains, and is backed by a vast expanse of hundreds of thousands of miles.

Mountains and dense forests.

It is really difficult to find the remaining remnants of King Chenliu in such a complicated environment.

Wu Zhongxian had thought in his mind before arriving at Minshan. If this was the case, then why not let out the news and let King Chen Liu's eagles and dogs come to look for him!

This place is blocked from outside information, and it is difficult for the remnants of King Chenliu who are hiding here to get information from the outside world.

Now the top leader of this remnant organization, King Chenliu, is imprisoned in the capital with his life or death uncertain. They are also eager to learn the latest news about King Chenliu at this time.

And one of the most critical points is that the whereabouts of King Chenliu's only youngest son are currently unknown. He must have been hiding in the dense forests of Minshan under the protection of these remnants.

As for Wu Zhongxian, the main promoter of exposing King Chen Liu's rebellion plan, not to mention sworn enemies, at least he had to kill his father.

Wu Zhongxian did not believe that the remnants of the group could endure it. Even if those subordinates knew the overall situation and could stand still, King Chen Liu's youngest son might not be able to endure such hatred!

As expected by Wu Zhongxian, the people at the table sitting in the corner of the store looked hurriedly and looked at Wu Zhongxian secretly. The bald man in the lead threw down a bunch of copper coins and shouted: "Check out, buddy!" www.81zw.???

?m

Then the group of people left the inn in a hurry. When they passed by Wu Zhongxian, Wu Zhongxian could clearly sense the murderous intention conveyed by the latter. Although the bald man hid it well, he could not escape the second-grade monk after all.

’s discernment.

Mei Shisan vaguely felt that something was wrong, and gently attached her graceful body to Wu Zhongxian's side. Her red lips slowly came closer and said softly: "Sir, the person who just left is definitely not a kind person. Do I need my subordinates to send someone to follow him?"

At this time, Wu Zhongxian could feel a bounce on his arms through his clothes, a slight heat coming from his ears, and a faint scent of plum blossoms.

Wu Zhongxian calmly raised his tea cup and took a sip, saying: "They are just small shrimps. The big fish I want to catch hasn't bitten the hook yet."
