Lin Ye said it straightforwardly, with nothing to hide.
The thief asked: "What do you want to steal?"
Lin Ye said: "Treasure."
The little thief was silent for a moment and then said: "First of all, you shouldn't directly say that you need a thief. You can call me a craftsman."
"Secondly, if the treasure you want to steal belongs to us in Dongbo, and you steal it back to the Jade Kingdom, why do you think I will help you."
Lin Ye looked at the little thief's belt.
He asked: "What is your name?"
The little thief: "Young man, I won't change my name, but I won't change my surname. Guan Sanxiao."
Lin Ye: "Your belt is the style worn by Dayu Bianjun more than ten years ago."
Guan Sanxiao's expression changed.
Lin Ye said: "If you want to go to Dayu to find someone, I can help you."
Guan San smiled and said: "What are you talking about?"
Lin Ye looked at the fortune teller: "I can do the fortune telling too. Come and see if it's accurate."
Lin Ye stood there and thought for a moment and then said: "Your mother is from Dongbo, but your father is a jade man and a military attaché in Dayu."
Guan Sanxiao looked at Lin Ye without saying anything, but there was already a complicated meaning in his eyes.
Lin Ye said: "He abandoned your mother. Later, your mother found out that she was pregnant, but she tried her best and failed to contact the heartless man."
"enough!"
Guan Sanxiao glared at Lin Ye: "Who the hell are you!"
Lin Ye said: "It's all guesswork."
Guan Sanxiao: "I don't believe it! Who the hell are you! Are you sent by that heartless man?!"
The fortune teller sighed: "I believe it."
He said: "The so-called fortune telling is nothing more than three things. One is to plan in advance, find out the relationship, and dig holes in advance. The other is to observe people's words and emotions, and the third is to make reasonable inferences."
Lin Ye said: "The belt you are wearing was left by the military attache more than ten years ago. At that time, Dayu's border troops had not yet entered Dongbo to participate in the war."
"But at that time, the new Emperor Dongbo had secretly sent people to Dayu. In order to show his sincerity, Emperor Yu arranged for the Minister of Civil Affairs, Wan Yulou, to quietly come to Dongbo with a group of officials when the Dongbo delegation returned.
"
Lin Ye said: "Most of the mission was civilian officials, with only a few military attachés responsible for guarding, and the rest were hundreds of soldiers."
"Based on my understanding of Dayu's officialdom, those civil servants did not dare to be arrogant in Dongbo, because they did not dare to trust anyone else. Civil servants in the imperial court have always been wary of each other."
"Once this kind of thing is known to others, he returns to the court to participate in the concert, and his reputation is ruined, especially in Wanyu Tower. At that time, he was not yet forty years old and was already the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Because of his meritorious service in the alliance with Dongbo, after returning to the court
Soon he was promoted to Minister of Rites, and a few years later during the war, he was promoted to Prime Minister of the Left."
Lin Ye said: "So, such a person will not allow himself or others to do things that may endanger his career advancement and reputation."
The fortune teller didn't speak, but nodded silently.
Lin Ye continued: "So that person must be a military attache, and a low-level military attache."
Guan Sanxiao: "Have you finished? Even if you guessed it right, why should I help you? You are a beauty, and I hate beauties too."
Lin Ye: "That's it."
He looked at the fortune teller: "Will you help me?"
The fortune teller's face was a little complicated: "Why...why should I help you?"
Lin Ye: "Do you want me to tell you?"
The fortune teller was silent for a moment and shook his head: "No need."
Lin Ye took off the big black umbrella from his back and handed it to the fortune teller: "Would you like to take it over and have a look?"
The fortune teller shook his head repeatedly: "No, no need."
Lin Ye said nothing more and turned around and walked out: "I live in Yueming Inn. If you are willing to take this business, come to me within three days. After three days, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find me."
"Wait!"
Guan Sanxiao: "Can you really help me find that person?" Lin Ye: "Not necessarily, but I will try my best."
Guan Sanxiao: "You keep your word."
Lin Ye said: "I'm not a good person. If I were, I wouldn't seduce you in this way, so you think about it yourself. Now I tell you that I will definitely keep my word, which is somewhat credible.
"
Guan Sanxiao hesitated for a moment and nodded: "I did it."
The fortune teller nodded: "I did it too."
Lin Ye looked at the fortune teller: "Actually, I don't really believe you."
Fortune teller: "Believe it or not, let me put it aside for now. When you found me, I said you needed four people to do this. You held out three fingers. At that time, you were already sure that both of us would agree to help.
is you?"
Lin Ye shook his head: "No."
Fortune teller: "What do you mean by holding out three fingers?"
Lin Ye: "You asked me how many people there are. I stretched out three fingers. If you two agree to help me, then there are three people including me. If you two don't agree to help me, then there are still three people left."
The fortune teller was stunned for a while.
Lin Ye: "Isn't that what you fortune tellers do all the time?"
Fortune teller: "You can also talk about us. You can tell better than me. You can also be a fortune teller."
Lin Ye: "Then let's go."
Fortune teller: "Where to go?"
Lin Ye: "When you told me that it takes four people to get things done, didn't you already think about who to find next?"
The fortune teller fell silent again.
Lin Ye: "You came to me on your own initiative, which is different from Sanxiao."
Guan Sanxiao looked at the fortune teller, who shook his head helplessly.
Half an hour later, Lin Ye and the three of them stopped at the entrance of a dilapidated-looking temple in the north of Caoshu City.
Lin Ye said: "The person you are looking for is a monk?"
Mr. Tianji nodded: "Yes, a monk who is not a monk."
Lin Ye: "Let me make a wild guess. The person you want to recommend to me is the flower monk who loses a thousand taels of silver every day while playing casually?"
Mr. Tianji nodded: "Yes."
He asked: "How did you guess it?"
Lin Ye answered a few words softly, almost without making a sound, but Mr. Tianji could tell by looking at the shape of his mouth.
Guan Sanxiao, who was walking at the end, didn't hear clearly and didn't see the shape of Lin Ye's mouth.
So he pulled Mr. Tianji and asked, "What on earth was he talking about?"
Mr. Tianji didn’t make a sound and answered Guan Sanxiao with his mouth movements. Actually, it’s not that easy to know what he said just by looking at his mouth movements.
Maybe it was because the words Lin Ye said were too easy to read.
Guan Sanxiao was startled after seeing this, and then silently repeated: "xjb is confused?"
After Lin Ye and the others entered the temple, they saw a fat monk with his shirt open and belly exposed, lying on the bench and sleeping soundly.
This guy looks to be one size smaller than Lingshan Nu, tall and fat, and his big belly seems to be able to fit a whole pig.
Mr. Tianji walked over, reached out and patted Monk Hua on his belly.
With the beating, the belly is like water waves, and it can actually ripple.
Monk Hua opened his eyes and sat up suddenly when he saw Mr. Tianji: "What are you doing here?"
Mr. Tianji turned back and pointed at Lin Ye: "I want to introduce you to a business. This is my...a fortune-telling friend."
Monk Hua sneered: "Do I need to do business? If I sleep every day, I will have a thousand taels of silver given by God when I wake up. Who in Caoshu City doesn't know this?"
Mr. Tianji smiled and said nothing.
Lin Ye said: "You have one thousand taels of silver every day when you open your eyes. Apart from losing this thousand taels in casual play, have you ever spent this money?"
Monk Hua was obviously stunned.
He asked: "What does it have to do with you?"
Lin Ye said: "I have to say that the owner who plays casually must be an interesting person, and he must also be an extremely smart person."
"He found a down-and-out monk like you. Every day when you come and play casually, you will get an extra thousand taels of silver out of thin air, and then you will lose all of it to the casual guests, and you only sit in the bank..."
Lin Ye said: "If I'm not wrong, your thousand taels of silver will be prepared for you next to the banker every day."
"Because you sit in the guest's seat, you can't stay in one position. Only when you sit in the banker's seat will you sit in that seat every day."
"You can use a thousand taels of silver every day to do tricks with a flowery monk like you, and you will become famous all of a sudden. And those who win your money must also be casual people."
Lin Ye said: "Besides taking care of your food, what other benefits did your casual boss promise you?"
Monk Hua looked at Mr. Tianji: "You betrayed me?!"
Mr. Tianji sighed: "I told you, he is one of my fortune telling friends."
Monk Hua: "What do you want to do with me by bringing him here?"
Lin Ye said: "I didn't know what you could do before I came here. He said I needed you. After seeing you, I knew what you could do."
Monk Hua: “What do you mean?”
Lin Ye: "You are fat."
Monk Hua: "I gave you face?!"
Lin Ye: "Ten thousand taels."
Monk Hua: "Hahahaha, it's only ten thousand taels, that's just my pocket money for ten days."
Lin Ye: "These ten thousand taels are really yours."
Monk Hua stopped talking.
After a while, he asked: "What do you want to do? If it is against the law, I won't do it."
Lin Ye: "Stealing things."
Monk Hua looked at Mr. Tianji, who nodded: "It was indeed stealing, but he didn't tell me what he was stealing."
Monk Hua: "Then I can't do it."
Lin Ye: "After the matter is completed, I can take you to Dayu, change the place, and give you a thousand taels a day to keep you entertained."
Monk Hua said: "Do you think this is a temptation for me? I don't do anything, I don't go anywhere, I have one thousand taels every day to satisfy my cravings."
Lin Ye: "In addition to the ten thousand taels, I will give you some pocket money every day when you go to Dayu."
Monk Hua frowned: "Who are you looking down on?"
Lin Ye: "I really do."
Another half hour later, Mingyue Inn.
When Lin Ye came back, the inn boy came up to him with a smile and a wicked smile on his face: "Sir, what do you think? Isn't it fun to play casually?"
Lin Ye: "It does look fun."
The boy asked: "Looks like?"
Lin Ye: "Yes, it seems, because I don't have money to play."
The young boy sighed, and suddenly felt that he had become closer to this young man. After all, he was just someone who couldn't afford to go and have fun.
"fine."
The boy said: "If you don't bully young people into poverty, you may become rich and powerful in the future. Don't just play casually, you can play casually in the world. Or when I become rich and noble, I can take you to play all over the world with me."
Lin Ye said: "If I really have fun all over the world from now on, I will definitely hire you to follow me."
Young man: "Son, please stop joking."
Lin Ye: "You were joking first."
The boy glared at Lin Ye, not embarrassed to scold him.
But I have scolded him more than 700 times in my heart, this guy really doesn’t know how to chat.
Lin Ye glanced at him: "Don't curse."
Boy: "I don't have one."
Lin Ye: "There are dirty words in your eyes."
Little guy: "..."
