It is said that over the years this hawker has been doing business, he has received a lot of scammers. It is obvious that he has to jump into pits. Not only does he jump, but he also chooses to jump into deep pits. This is the first time he has seen them.
For a moment, he thought that the other party was here to cause trouble, but he quickly slapped himself again. There is no such thing as hurting the enemy by 800 and damaging yourself by 10,000. He committed suicide on the battlefield and cheated of his pension. It was not so cruel.
The hawker bit the silver in his hand hard, and became more determined in his mind. How could he doubt others casually? The customer is always right.
With the hawker's gratitude, Lu Hanjiang asked Huangfu Xiaoyuan to carry a large bag of calligraphy and paintings, and left with satisfaction.
On the way, Huangfu Xiaoyuan couldn't help but asked: "Sir, why do you choose these inferior paintings?"
It should be said that not all imitations are rubbish. Although there are few examples of imitations that are better than others, it is not impossible. You can expect to find excellent works at street stalls. Obviously, what is needed is not extraordinary vision, but the defiance of nature. luck.
"I have longed for Mr. Baimei's paintings for a long time. Although I can't find the real ones, it's good to try out a few imitations of others." Lu Hanjiang said in a serious tone.
"..."
This is obviously nonsense. Huangfu Xiaoyuan clearly remembers that the last time he came to Yingtian Mansion, Lu Hanjiang didn't even know who Mr. "Bai Mei" was.
The two wandered around the street for a while. After finding nothing, Lu Hanjiang found a teahouse in disappointment and went to the second floor for a rest. Huangfu Xiaoyuan looked at him and suddenly thought of something and asked He said: "Could the young master be looking for the little girl who sold the wood carvings last time?"
"Yeah, I'm here now, and I wanted to buy one or two pieces to give to Miss Shang," Lu Hanjiang nodded and said, "The wood wither is indeed quite beautiful, but it's a pity that I was unlucky and didn't meet her this time."
"..." Now Huangfu Xiaoyuan didn't know what to say.
In general, half a year of getting along with her gave her a basic understanding of Lu Hanjiang. She also had some ideas about this person's behavior and thinking logic, but it was only basic. Sometimes, she didn't understand the other person at all. What do you think?
For example, this time, just the handful that Lu Hanjiang just grabbed from the Ge family, not to mention the priceless treasures, dozens or hundreds of taels of jewelry and antiques can be bought casually, so why are you still thinking about those few pieces? Withered wood for money.
To say that Lu Hanjiang regards Shangluo as a friend, he specially picked out a small wooden box worth a few cents as a gift for him. To say that he does not regard Shangluo as a friend, he specially selected a small wooden box worth a few cents to give as a gift. Gift.
Huangfu Xiaoyuan quietly looked at Lu Hanjiang who was drinking tea with the corner of her eye, and finally sighed secretly, she really couldn't see through him.
Lu Hanjiang didn't know what Huangfu Xiaoyuan was thinking. After drinking a cup of hot tea, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a few men wearing rag patches passing by on the street outside the window.
Huangfu Xiaoyuan followed his line of sight and said softly: "It seems to be a disciple of the Beggar Clan."
Disciples of the Beggar Clan are all over the world, but not every beggar in the world is a disciple of the Beggar Clan, and not everyone who is homeless due to livelihood will choose to join the Beggar Clan.
To be more practical, Lu Hanjiang has been in the world for so long, and he has never seen that disciple of the Beggar Clan worry about food.
A group of ragged disciples and elders of the Beggar Clan seem to be living a miserable life. In fact, none of them seriously go begging on the streets. Most of them work together in groups and make money by digging through walls to get information. They also go to the rivers and lakes when they have nothing to do."
"Be brave enough to do what is right", earn some reputation, and earn some gold and silver at the same time.
He is a beggar and has even forgotten his job. Lu Hanjiang has always looked down upon this sect, and the Jin Yiwei are extremely wary of this large sect with many people.
The ministers in the court are also very cold towards the beggar gang. There are so many jobs in the world that you can't do, but you have to take begging as a job, and the number of beggars is all counted among the refugees. In this way, beggars
The stronger the gang becomes, the more shameless the officials in the court become.
"Disciples of the Beggar Clan are spread all over the world, so it's not surprising that they appear here."
Although he said so, Lu Hanjiang could still tell that these Beggar Clan disciples seemed to be looking for someone.
Seeing that Lu Hanjiang seemed to be moving, Huangfu Xiaoyuan asked: "Master, do you want me to go and find out more about it?"
"No need to worry...eh?"
As he was talking, Lu Hanjiang suddenly saw a familiar figure in the crowd. He was a Taoist priest with a short beard and a white face, wearing a coarse preaching robe and carrying a wooden sword.
Huangfu Xiaoyuan also saw him, narrowed her eyes and whispered: "Zhuang Yan Guan's Wuwei Taoist, he is... not dead?"
The person who was connecting with the disciples of the Beggar Clan in the crowd was none other than Taoist Wuwei, one of the many martial arts masters in the south of the Yangtze River who stood in the Huangfu family during the battle between good and evil.
Looking at Huangfu Xiaoyuan, Lu Hanjiang said: "Although your eldest brother has great martial arts skills, these people are also well-known masters in the world. They are not like those who kill them casually."
At that time, Huangfu Yushu was killed in a panic, and Lu Hanjiang was busy making plans. He really did not notice that Wuwei Taoist had escaped from the Three Swords of Heaven and was now colluding with the Beggar Clan.
In the first battle, Jiangnan Zhengdao suffered heavy losses. Ten pavilions of famous sects were destroyed. Eighty-nine pavilions were destroyed. However, Wuwei Taoist came from the Taoist lineage. Even if all his disciples were killed or injured, he shamelessly went to the road to beg for alms, but he could still win a favor.
We came as a team, how could we end up joining the beggar gang?
However, the Beggar Clan and Taoist Wuwei are getting together and are still looking for someone, and the result seems to be ready.
Lu Hanjiang rubbed his fingers on the edge of the tea cup, looked at the group of people from a distance and said, "Could it be that they are looking for traces of your elder brother?"
"Why?" Huangfu Xiaoyuan frowned and said, "Do they want revenge?"
Taoist Wuwei's martial arts are also top-notch, but they are clearly far behind Huangfu Yushu. Even including the Beggar Gang, it is hard to say whether he is seeking revenge or committing suicide.
"It doesn't look like much."
Lu Hanjiang said calmly: "Jinyiwei hasn't heard any big news in the world recently. They just don't know what they can do. Even if you include Yan Fengyun, they are probably about five or five equal to your eldest brother. If you want to defeat him, you may even kill him."
It’s very difficult for him.”
"...Sir, why don't you let your subordinates follow them to see what's going on?" Huangfu Xiaoyuan volunteered.
Lu Hanjiang thought for a moment and nodded: "If you care, just go and have a look."
Huangfu Xiaoyuan opened her mouth as if she wanted to defend herself, but in the end she didn't say anything. She just lowered her head and said, "Yes, I obey."
"I will return to Beijing first. I have to give this gift to the boss before the end of the year."
As he spoke, Lu Hanjiang patted the bag containing the paintings with a smile on his face.
Huangfu Xiaoyuan heard this and tried to ask: "To Lord Meng?"
"Huh? Of course not."
Lu Hanjiang laughed and said, "Mr. Meng never likes calligraphy, painting and other things. This is for another old man. I hit it off with him at His Majesty's birthday banquet, so I specially bought these for him."
