Chapter 399 Musical Fountain

"Ah, no need, just pay me the normal salary..." Li Xiaoxian was shocked by Shen Feng's generosity. Judging from Shen Feng's appearance, he shouldn't be a very rich person. She thought Shen Feng came to Shanghai as a student. She was traveling in the city, but hearing what he meant, she might have a good family background, otherwise, she wouldn't be so familiar with French, and she might have studied abroad. Thinking of this, she felt relieved.

"Okay, then I'll cover your three meals a day, but I'm not in Shanghai for just one day, but two days. Can you always follow me?" Shen Feng said. Even if Li Xiaoxian is not available, he will find a guide or lead the way. He happened to meet this beauty, and she was kind-hearted, so she was naturally his best choice.

"That's it, but I still have a job..." Li Xiaoxian was a little embarrassed. She thought Shen Feng just needed her to be his guide for a day.

Shen Feng saw her embarrassment and said with a smile: "Don't worry, it won't delay your work. If you solicit customers like this outside, won't you make much money? As I said just now, according to your daily salary , I’ll give you double.”

"Okay then." Li Xiaoxian saw that Shen Feng asked her so strongly and she didn't suffer any loss, so she simply agreed.

"Let's find a hotel first, I don't have a place to stay yet." After Shen Feng finished speaking, after Li Xiaoxian nodded, the two of them started to hail a taxi on the roadside.

There were quite a few taxis at the entrance of the airport, and this taxi driver was obviously very enthusiastic. He turned on the meter as soon as he got there and started chatting with the two people.

"Shen Feng, where exactly are you going to visit? In Shanghai, there is an artificial lake, which is a relatively large scenic spot, and there is also an artificial beach, which is very suitable for vacation during this period. Of course, there is also the ancient city of Shanghai. It's more interesting. Did you choose a good place when you came here?" Li Xiaoxian asked. It was still some time before they drove out of the airport, so they didn't tell the driver the location. These ten minutes were enough for the two of them to choose a location first.

"That's not true. Which of these two locations is closer to the city center?" Shen Feng asked. He came here to find the Shen family. It would be inconvenient if it was too far from the suburbs. Moreover, he had asked Shen Zhili before , the situation of the Shen family, but twenty years have passed, and Shen Zhili doesn't know much about the changes in Shanghai. He just said that he asked Shen Feng to go to Shanghai to find a place called Shangdong Pawnshop. One of them was named Zhao Tao. This person had a good relationship with Shen Zhili at the beginning, and he must know some things about the Shen family. If you find him, you will definitely be able to ask some questions.

At the beginning, Zhao Tao's Shangdong Pawnshop was in the center of Shanghai. However, after so many years, I don't know if this pawnshop still exists. However, at that time, this pawnshop was still very famous, so Shen Zhili let it go. Shen Feng looks for him.

"The ancient city is relatively close, but the ancient city is close to the city center. The hotels next to it are all five-star and quite expensive. It is better for us to go to a place farther away. I know the owner of a hotel. This can be slightly cheaper. Going to the ancient city It's only a few kilometers." Li Xiaoxian suggested. This was not an occupational disease of hers as a tour guide, as she could get commissions by going to her hotel, but she meant it sincerely.

After all, Shen Feng earns thousands of dollars a day in a five-star hotel, and at her friend's hotel, she has to pay at least half the discount. She must be sincere when accepting Shen Feng's money.

And Shen Feng didn't know what she was thinking. Of course, he didn't have this idea and would think that Li Xiaoxian would cheat him. What happened at the airport gate just now proved to Shen Feng that this woman has a bad heart. Bad, I will definitely not cheat him.

But Shen Feng was very wealthy, so how could he care about the thousand and eight dollars? It would be better to be closer to the city center. He smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, it's just near the ancient city, and you can stay in a five-star hotel."

"Okay." Li Xiaoxian nodded. She was already sure that Shen Feng must be a person from a wealthy family. Otherwise, ordinary people of his age would not spend so much money even if they had a little money.

The car drove for more than two hours, but the traffic jam on the road lasted half an hour. Otherwise, with the speed they were traveling on the expressway, they would have arrived long ago.

Shen Feng didn't understand, so he left the arrangement of the hotel to Li Xiaoxian. The latter was familiar with the roads and quickly found a hotel.

A five-star hotel is a five-star hotel. Not only is there a fountain at the entrance, but even the lady at the front desk is very beautiful.

Shen Feng chose a medium-sized room. Although he had money, he couldn't show off too much.

In the middle of the trip, he asked Li Xiaoxian if he wanted to stay in the hotel too. After all, she was not a tour guide who could finish the job in a day or two. Even if her home was in Shanghai, it would be troublesome to run back and forth, but Li Xiaoxian still regarded her as a family. It's not far from here. It'll be a short taxi ride away. He rejected Shen Feng's kindness.

But Shen Feng was a good customer and claimed that he also paid for the round trip fare.

This really made Li Xiaoxian feel that Shen Feng was not only from a good family background, but also felt that he was a bit of a prodigal.

For her, the money for one night in a five-star hotel is enough for half a month's salary. Even if Shen Feng comes from a well-off family, it is still too wasteful. After all, it is just for a few days, so it is not that luxurious.

But the money belonged to Shen Feng after all. She just reminded him kindly and said nothing more.

The two of them arrived at the hotel room. It was a suite that Shen Feng specially requested so that Li Xiaoxian could take a rest.

Shen Feng claimed that he wanted to change clothes and take a shower, so he sent Li Zixia to another room. After putting down his backpack, he picked up the silver suitcase he had obtained from A Bin and Mr. Liu at the airport.

He was curious about what was inside, so he put the box on the bed and tried to open it.

The password lock was on, but it was not difficult for Shen Feng at all. He chose the simplest and crudest way, prying it open with a knife.

Shen Feng has done this kind of thing many times, so it is naturally not difficult.

Soon, with a click, the box was opened.

What appeared in front of Shen Feng was a lot of jewelry in the box, all of which were of expensive varieties. The price of each item was estimated to be over one million.

These jewelry include earrings, bracelets, and necklaces, about seven or eight types.

However, these things look a bit old-fashioned and would not be worn by young people. They are generally suitable for women over thirty-five years old.

The total of these things would probably cost tens of millions of dollars, unless they were fakes. After all, Shen Feng was not a jewelry expert and had no ability to identify authenticity.

Moreover, the temptation of these things to Shen Feng was almost zero, and he focused on the other items in the box.

There is a pistol suppressor, that is, a silencer, but not the pistol, and a bundle of nylon rope. Others include a military knife, night vision goggles, and a series of other supplies.

"Could it be that these people named Abin and Mr. Liu want to kidnap someone?" Shen Feng pondered for a moment, and it became clear that it was a set of tools for committing crimes. He did not believe that the person who could bring these things on the plane was What a serious person, the most important thing is that Mr. Liu still has a gun in his handbag.

But speaking of it, it had nothing to do with his half cent. He just took the box back without hesitation, but he didn't expect that there were so many things in it.

But the suitcase was not finished yet. There were still many pockets inside, with scattered bullets, but these were of no use. Finally, Shen Feng found a photo from the inside of the suitcase.

The photo shows a woman with a bright smile, about 24 or 25 years old, with a fresh look, fashionable clothes, and even a villa in the background.

Judging from his status, he is certainly not low-level.

Shen Feng looked at the photo for a long time and couldn't figure out why. His guess seemed to be confirmed. Those two people were probably going to kidnap someone.

But apart from these, there was nothing. In the end, Shen Feng carried the photo on his body, put all the other tools intact inside, and put the suitcase next to the bed.

Next, he went to take a shower and changed his clothes.

It happened to be noon, and Shen Feng asked Li Xiaoxian to go downstairs for dinner.

During the process, Li Xiaoxian kept telling Shen Feng some things about the ancient city, introducing the scenic spots and where to see them later, which would be better.

But little did he know that Shen Feng's mind was not here at all. "Have you ever heard of Shangdong Pawnshop?" Shen Feng asked when the two of them finished their meal and walked out of the hotel.

"Shangdong Pawnshop?" Li Xiaoxian felt very unfamiliar after hearing this name. She shook her head, "I don't know. Although there are many antiques in Shanghai, pawnshops are very rare in this era. I know that the more famous ones are There are only a few of them, but I have never heard of the pawn shop you mentioned. But you can be more detailed, and I can ask my friends to see if they know about it."

Shen Feng nodded. Li Xiaoxian was only in his twenties, and this Shangdong Pawnshop was a pawnshop more than twenty years ago. It was normal for Li Xiaoxian not to know, but this pawnshop was still very important to him, so he said: "The owner of this pawn shop is called Zhao Tao. I don't know much about the rest. If you have a way to find it, I'd like you to help me."

"No problem." Li Xiaoxian nodded. She didn't ask any more questions. Anyway, it was just a matter of opening her mouth.

Next, Shen Feng was a little aimless and simply followed Li Xiaoxian to the ancient city for a stroll. However, today happened to be a rest day and there were really many people.

The two of them only walked out for about half an hour and then came out, wasting more than 100 yuan in tickets.

This surprised Li Xiaoxian. Shen Feng didn't even know what he was doing in Shanghai. He came to visit the ancient city.

Even if Shen Feng saw Li Xiaoxian's surprise, he would not respond.

When it was just shy of two o'clock in the afternoon, the two returned to the hotel, and Li Xiaoxian followed them, claiming that they could take Shen Feng to see the musical fountain in the evening.

This actually fulfilled her duty as a tour guide.

After returning to the hotel, Shen Feng lay on the bed and began to rest. The same was true for Li Xiaoxian, who was locked in his room and didn't know what he was doing.

Anyway, Zhao Tao from Shangdong Pawnshop couldn't be found in a short time. If that didn't work, he had to go to Lu Bin to see if there was anyone in Shanghai who could help. In this case, he could also be allowed to work in Shanghai. The efficiency is reduced somewhat.

It seems that he was not well prepared for coming to Shanghai this time. He thought he could rest in Shanghai for a few days before looking for news about the Shen family.

But if there was no news from Shangdong's pawnshop, he would have no clues, and it would be equivalent to searching for something in the dark.

It was useless to think so much anyway, so he simply fell asleep.

He didn't know how long it had passed before he was woken up by a series of knocks on the door.

Shen Feng opened his eyes, thought for a few seconds, and then immediately stood up and opened the door. The person standing at the door was naturally Li Xiaoxian, and there was no one else in the suite except her.

"Are you still sleeping?" Li Xiaoxian asked in surprise.

Shen Feng was stunned for a moment. It turned out that it was getting dark outside and he didn't care that the door was open all the time in his room. He smiled and said, "Maybe I've been a little tired recently, so I took a little more rest."

Li Xiaoxian did not expect that she had always thought that Shen Feng was a person who had no worries about food and clothing. Looking at his tired look, this was completely inconsistent with his previous positioning of Shen Feng.

But she was just a tour guide and didn't want to ask any more questions. She smiled and said, "How about you sleep a little longer? It's still early anyway."

"No, a few hours of sleep a day is enough for me." Shen Feng shook his head and smiled, "Should we go to the musical fountain now? This place is not far away. Are you hungry? How about we finish our meal? Leave again?"

A series of questions made Li Xiaoxian not sure which one to answer, but what she couldn't understand even more was why Shen Feng's starting point was for her benefit?

It seems like she is the tour guide, right?

Not knowing what he thought of, Li Xiaoxian didn't dare to look directly into Shen Feng's eyes anymore and started to dodge.

After all, this is a hotel room, where a man and a woman are alone. If someone sees it, they might gossip.

All of Shen Feng's actions made Li Xiaoxian feel that Shen Feng cared about her.
