Chapter 30 Beauty is in the bones but not in the skin
Zhou Shi’s breathing stopped momentarily.
What a beautiful person...
Her eyes are like autumn water, and her eyebrows are like falling stars. There is also a dash of heroism in her gracefulness, and her eyes seem to be looking down
Strands of silk are wrapped around the body, outlining curves that make people imagine, and only a pair of feet are exposed. Zhou Shi's evil thoughts are aroused by those feet, and he can't help but...
"The shopkeeper's, the shopkeeper's?"
Why does this beauty have the voice of a man?
"Shopkeeper, what's wrong with you?"
Liu Xiaosi?
Zhou Shi woke up suddenly.
Liu Xiaosi shook his shoulders anxiously and kept calling him.
"Shopkeeper, are you okay?"
"Stop, stop, stop, what's wrong?"
Seeing that Zhou Shi came to his senses, Liu Xiaosi stopped and said:
"As soon as I came out, I saw you drooling over the fan. I thought something was wrong with you!"
Fan?
The five senses gradually returned, Zhou Shi looked into Liu Xiaosi's eyes, and his fingers did touch the surface and bones of the fan.
It turned out to be a fan?
Zhou Shi immediately closed the fan, coughed twice, and said:
"Ahem, um, it's okay. I got up early and accidentally fell back to sleep."
"But I see that you have been looking at this fan, and you are still mumbling... What is painted on this fan?"
Liu Xiaosi came up and Zhou Shi quickly closed the fan.
"Nothing, a friend sent it to me. Clean up the store quickly."
Liu Xiaosi didn't ask any more questions and got busy with the shopkeeper.
"This fan is really evil, it can actually make people have such obscene hallucinations..."
He secretly put the fan into the iron abacus and wiped the saliva on his clothes.
"Similar to gold wire fishing, there is no related memory. It doesn't seem to be an ancient object. But it does have power. If Liu Xiaosi hadn't woken me up, I might have really fallen into it. I don't know what would have happened.
Come..."
Zhou Shi named the fan "Fantasy Fan" to remind himself that what he saw in the fan was all illusion, just red and pink skulls.
"If you think about it carefully, this fan has a lot of uses. I just lack a weapon that can control the enemy head-on."
The bite wound on his left arm is still hurting. He may need to see a doctor.
"I don't know if it's useful for women..."
Speaking of this, Zhou Zhi made a list in his mind. The top priority is to go to Yichun Garden to pick up Mr. Hu... The old witch will definitely not be happy to see me. If she knew that my things were left with her, she might be greedy. But the little girl Luo Ziqing - the little monster seems to be an honest person. It would be best to meet her, but if you can't, you can also sneak in to find Mr. Hu.
Then there is Xu Baocai’s body currently hidden in the backyard.
Of course Zhou Shi wanted to hand over the body to the fleet as soon as possible, but after Xu Baocai's account, he was very wary of merchants, not to mention he couldn't confirm that Xu Baocai had really put down his past and would not take revenge on him, who was somewhat suspected of being a quarrel.
people.
What if the secret code was actually "This kid hurt me, brothers, avenge me", that would be hilarious.
Without Hu Gongzun, his frontal combat effectiveness was cut in half. If dozens or hundreds of people in the entire fleet come to attack him, he will only be slaughtered by this half-hearted monument player. p>
"There are still not enough means..."
While Zhou Shi was sighing, Agui also got up. A new business day is about to begin.
Catering is really a hard-working industry, not to mention Zhou Shi holds two jobs.
After lunch, he looked through the account books and found that although the turnover in the past two days was almost catching up with shopkeeper Zhou Da before he left Fengde Garden, it was still far from being able to repay the accounts.
"Look at it this way, it will take you until you are thirty to pay back the debt you owe in August, but what about this month's debt? Even if the shopkeeper is too embarrassed to come to ask for the debt, the butcher shop and grain store still can't pay the debt!" p>
Although Fengdeyuan is well-known and ranks among the four famous buildings in Jiangdu, its customer flow is far behind the other three, and several of its signature dishes are home-cooked dishes with low profits, so it relies heavily on turnover. Once there is a problem with turnover,
For example, last month those two prodigal sons went out and squandered their money, which was a devastating disaster.
"Yes, there are two time bombs outside. I don't know when they will go off. We still need to send people out to look for them."
At this time, Zhao Qinfeng bowed to Zhou Shi and said:
"Shopkeeper, let me remind you that last month's wages haven't been paid yet..."
Zhou Shi slapped his forehead and said to himself that he had forgotten about it!
You can’t blame me, after all, I’ve been here for so long and haven’t received any wages.
"Well, don't worry, Fengde Building will never default on wages...but it may be difficult to pay them on time."
Lao Zhao said with a bitter face: "Shopkeeper, I have worked in Fengde Building for so long. Of course I know that you follow the rules. But I am different from other clerks. I have a big family to support, and I can't see you for more than a month."
What do you want me to do with my wages?"
What he said might be a little strange, but Zhou Shi could understand his difficulties and felt quite guilty.
"Old Zhao, I'm really sorry. But I promise you, by next month at the latest, I will ask for one piece of these three months' wages even if I go out on the streets to beg for food!"
This is good, there is one more debt to repay.
The accounts of the dead are being settled every day, but the accounts of the living have not yet been settled...
When night fell, Zhou Shi immediately set off for Yichun Garden.
"You have to move quickly, we still have to do the work in the inn when we get back."
Although there was a bit of commotion at Yichun Garden last night, the guests didn't know the inside story and just thought it was a jealous fight scene that happens every night in brothels. So business at Yichun Garden is still booming tonight.
"Hey, young master, are you here again?"
Zhou Shi was surprised. He recognized the old woman who greeted him yesterday.
If you don't say 360 lines, you will be the number one scholar. It is not ordinary people who can work in an entertainment venue of Yichun Garden. The ability to remember people when they meet is indispensable.
"Ah, yes, the girls you have here are pretty good."
Zhou Shi took out the little money from last night, ordered another girl who looked shy, fished with gold wire at the top of the stairs to collect the money, then left the girl and went straight to the fourth floor...
Just as he was about to reach the fourth floor, there was a sudden commotion at his feet.

"The government office is open to the public. All idle people are waiting to leave quickly!"
The door was kicked open, dozens of strong men armed with swords swarmed in, and the guests fled in a hurry.
Zhou Shi quickly lowered his body and lay on the stairs to watch.
"Yamen servants? Police officers? Anyway, they are people from the government, and there are many of them!"
What's going on?
Are you here to investigate the Xu Baocai case? His subordinates have reported it to the police?
Then we shouldn’t disperse the guests, we should seal off the scene. What if the murderer is among them?
Or is it that the government has sufficient evidence and the person they want to arrest is the owner of Yichunyuan - that old witch?
No matter what, it’s important to find Mr. Hu. After such a fuss, it will be difficult to find him again!
Zhou Shi bent over and walked quickly upstairs, and happened to bump into a girl.
"Ouch!"
"Luo Ziqing?"
"Are you...Yesterday's Detective Yu?"
Luo Ziqing was knocked to the ground, and after seeing Zhou Shi's face clearly, he hurriedly moved back.
"Didn't you say you don't care? Why did you bring someone to arrest you again?"
Zhou Shi looked down and saw that the government officials had already climbed up to the second floor. If they were to find out...
"Shh, hide it first!"
Zhou Shi took Luo Ziqing's arm without any explanation and entered the circular room with ease.
"Listen, the person who came to arrest you is not the same as me, I'm just looking for something!"
"You mean this?"
Luo Ziqing took out Lord Hu from his body.
"Yes!"
Zhou Shi was overjoyed and quickly reached out to grab it, but was stopped by Luo Ziqing.
"No! You tell me how to deceive them first, or I won't give it to you!"
"They" of course refers to the government.
Zhou Shi was so anxious that he couldn't defeat the vixen, so he had to say: "The body has been moved away. That man named Xu was very careful in his work. No one knew that he died here!"
"Liar! How did they find this place?"
"Eighty percent it was the riot last night - that is, the fight between me and your aunt. Listen, they are not necessarily here for that person. Whatever you say then, you won't be able to deceive those people anyway, but
Don't mention Xu Baocai, and don't mention that you are a vixen! Otherwise, you will be beheaded!"
"I'm not a vixen, I'm a fox demon!" Luo Ziqing said dissatisfiedly and handed Duke Hu to Zhou Shi.
This little girl doesn't have much thought... Zhou Shi put Hu Gongzun into his pocket, and footsteps could be heard outside the door.
