Chapter 48 No one is just killing people everywhere
"Okay, hurry up and urge them, let's leave as soon as possible." The third steward nodded and did not refute Zhou Feng.
After guessing Yuesheng's identity, he was even more grateful that he had stopped the guard just now, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
No matter whether it was Yuesheng who suffered a loss or they suffered a loss, no one could take advantage of it in the end. If Zhou Feng had not been injured before, he would still have the confidence to fight against the Red Gold Gang with his strength as a master of marrow energy.
But now that Zhou Feng is injured, the Third Steward doesn't believe that he can compete with the Chijin Gang just by relying on the strongest guards. As for the City Lord's Mansion, just kidding, it's pretty good if they can help each other.
Qingyu and Yingxuan were outsiders. Although they had some friendship, Yingxuan was very unhappy with him and would definitely not help them when the time came.
Moreover, he also heard that Qingyu seemed to be related to the niece of Yue Gutian, the leader of the Chijin Gang, which made him even more wary.
The third manager's mind was as clear as a mirror, and the stakes kept flashing in his mind. He grasped the best line now, which was to sell the goods quickly and leave Qingning City as soon as the storm passed.
Now that a conflict has arisen, it is almost impossible to eliminate it. He can only try his best to delay the outbreak of the conflict. He knows this very well.
"Fortunately, this young man is here alone. If his father were here, things would probably not go well today."
The third manager felt lucky that he knew Yue Gutian well. He had done business with him every year and he was extremely domineering. Even if he tried to trick the Jiufang County caravan, he might not give up.
The atmosphere at the dining table in the front hall became silent and eerie. No one who had been interacting with each other in the caravan spoke a word. They all ate pasta in silence and drank strong liquor.
And Yuesheng was the same, sweeping the food on the table like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves. He glanced at the third steward and the others, especially Qing Yu and Zhou Feng. He only felt the pressure on these two people.
In less than a quarter of an hour, the third steward got up and left the Mianji Restaurant with everyone in the caravan and Brother Qingyu. He also left fifty taels on the table as meal money and did not pay half price.
Although businessmen value profits, they also have their own principles and will not ruin their reputation by coveting petty profits.
Seeing the third steward and others leaving, Yuesheng wiped the corners of his mouth with his sleeve calmly, stood up and left.
"Eh? I seem to have forgotten something? Forget it, let's talk about it later when I remember it!" Yuesheng walked to the door and suddenly paused, frowning slightly.
After a while, the waiter carrying two new dishes from the back hall came to the front hall. He was confused when he saw the empty front hall and the fifty taels of silver on the table. He had only been in for less than a quarter of an hour. Why?
Everyone is gone?
However, when he saw that Yuesheng was gone, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Finally, we have sent this plague god away. However, I am afraid that I will lose forty taels of silver for so much fine food. I hope the shopkeeper won't be so angry."
Seeing that Yuesheng did not leave any silver coins on the table, the waiter was not surprised. If Yuesheng, a bully, left any silver coins, he would be surprised and frightened.
…
"Young Hero Qingyu, Miss Yingxuan, we parted ways. Thanks to your help before, we were able to escape from the poisonous hands of those two monsters. If you are of any use to me in the future, you can come to Jiufang County to find me. As long as I can, I will help you."
It will definitely not be postponed!”
Not far after leaving the Mianji Restaurant, the third steward stopped and raised his hands to Qing Yu.
"The Third Steward's matter is serious. If Leader Zhou doesn't take action, our senior brothers are no match for those two monsters. Therefore, this matter can be regarded as mutual help and mutual benefit. We senior brothers will leave first. Junior sister, let's go!"
Qingyu didn't stop for even a moment, pulling Yingxuan and walking towards Yue Mansion. He didn't forget that his purpose this time was to pick up Fei Xueling to go to Thousand Swords Sect.
The Jiufang County caravan also rushed towards the City Lord's Mansion. Their Jiufang County caravan trade has always been conducted at the City Lord's Mansion with other family forces. After all, Jiufang County has not yet set up a branch chamber of commerce in Qingning City.
.
Only five minutes after the group parted ways, Yuesheng, wearing a purple-black robe, appeared on the spot and glanced in the direction of Yue Mansion and the City Lord's Mansion.
"They actually separated? Forget it, it just so happens that I may not be able to beat that guy."
Yuesheng muttered, and then he strode forward, one step at a time, chasing the third steward and his party.
The third steward, Zhou Feng and others walked through several streets and saw few pedestrians, feeling a little strange in their hearts.
When they came to Qingning City before, although it was still cold at this time of year, there were still many pedestrians. Why did Qingning City suddenly become so deserted now?
And he remembered that this area should be the territory of the Xiao family, and it was considered a prosperous neighborhood. But now there was no one to see, and the doors and windows of the houses everywhere were closed, as if there was really no one there.
Not only did the third manager feel that something was wrong, but even Zhou Feng felt a hint of danger. If he felt danger, it meant that this would be a disaster for ordinary people.
"Wait a minute, I'll discuss something with you!"
Just as the third steward, Zhou Feng and the rest of the caravan were carefully watching their surroundings, a familiar voice sounded from behind, causing them to look back.
Seeing the person coming, Zhou Feng and the third steward were stunned, and then frowned.
Why is this young man here? Is it because of the conflict just now?
The third steward and Zhou Feng were just puzzled, but the others were furious and looked at him as if they wanted to eat him alive.
However, since the third steward had specifically warned them before, they could only remain furious but did not dare to do anything, otherwise they would be kicked out of the caravan.
"Master Yue, I wonder why you are chasing me? If it is because of what happened before, I would like to apologize to you on behalf of my subordinates."
The third steward touched his mustache, suppressed the cunning light in his eyes, and cupped his hand with a sincere expression.
Huh? I actually knew my identity. I saw that my previous title of waiter was revealed. When I heard the title of third steward, Yuesheng walked up to him without slowing down and thought at the same time.
"There's no need to apologize. I just need the third manager to agree to something for Yue."
A smile appeared on Yuesheng's lips. During this period of time, almost no one came near the Xiao family, and this road was the closest to the City Lord's Mansion. It was really convenient for him to take this road for these people to take action.
He could have caught up with them long ago, but he found that these people were actually passing by Xiao's house. Realizing this, he hung far behind them and called to them to stop them when they got there.
Hearing Yuesheng's pushy words, the third steward narrowed his eyes. He had to say that the young man in front of him really didn't know how high the sky was. He gave in like this and yet he was so greedy. He had been the emperor of the land for a long time.
"I wonder what Young Master Yue wants?"
At this time, the third steward's face had become extremely calm, and he had made up his mind in his heart. If Yuesheng's request was too much, he would just leave him here.
There's no one around, so it's a good time to kill someone.
The ideas of both parties were inexplicably the same at this time.
