Zhou Yuanzhi was eating breakfast while listening to the steward's report on various major events that happened in Jinling City yesterday.
This is Zhou Yuanzhi's habit. As a top businessman, he must always pay attention to the trends in the Jinling market and find out valuable information from these messages in order to make a fortune.
"They're all looking for a girl with big breasts?"
Zhou Yuanzhi was stunned: "What's the origin?"
"have no idea!"
The steward shook his head.
There are so many people working on things, so naturally they will talk a lot and inevitably leak some information, but these people don't know much, they just know that they are looking for a girl.
Normally, I would have to remember a lot of things, such as age, appearance, and identity. But this is not necessary because the breasts are too big, so just one feature is enough to find someone.
"Haha, from the looks of it, a certain princess is missing, right?"
Zhou Yuanzhi guessed that some of you were gloating about others' misfortune, so that you, the dignitaries and relatives of the emperor, usually lorded it over you, but now you feel deflated, right?
However, he estimated that it was probably not lost, but that he must have had too much fun with the wild man and ended up staying out all night.
"No matter who did it, they have stirred a hornet's nest."
Seeing that the master was in a good mood, the steward also smiled in amusement.
"To hell with them, let's make money with peace of mind." Zhou Yuanzhi finished his meal and was a little unhappy when he didn't see his son: "Where is the young master? Did you go to Ningxiang Pavilion to spend the night again?"
"No, the young master just went out."
Report to the steward.
"How is it appropriate for a young man to sleep in late every day?"
Although he said this, Zhou Yuanzhi's complexion improved a lot. It was better to sleep in than go to a brothel for a night.
…
Sun Mo knew that searching for someone aimlessly was a waste of time, so he stayed up all night and kept drawing Lu Zhiruo's portrait.
Boom! Boom!
There was a knock on the door.
Rudy saw that Sun Mo didn't respond, so he walked over and opened the door. When he saw Wang Su standing outside, he was shocked.
"Wang...Vice Principal Wang!"
Rudy was so nervous that he stuttered when speaking. He subconsciously glanced back at the bed. Hey, if he had known, he should have folded the quilt and put away the dirty clothes.
This time, let alone showing your face in front of Master Wang, it would be good if you don't make people dislike you.
"Is Master Sun here?"
Wang Su asked.
"exist!"
How dare Rudy block Wang Su from entering, so he quickly got out of the way: "I'll get you some water!"
When Lu Di was busy, he glanced at Sun Mo, and his heart was filled with envy. Did you hear that Wang Su called Sun Mo "Master Sun"?
As a trainee teacher, I am not qualified to use this title at all.
"Master Sun, I heard from Principal An that your direct disciple has disappeared?"
Wang Su didn't like to be polite, so he went directly to the topic: "Have you found it?"
"not yet!"
Sun Mo was not in the mood to entertain Wang Su. He didn't even say hello and kept painting portraits.
"Is this the portrait of that student? Give me ten pictures and I'll ask someone to find them."
Wang Su walked over and saw the paintings drawn by Sun Mo, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
Such neat painting work, the whole girl's temperament is vividly displayed on the paper.
Wang Su looked at Sun Mo in surprise, not realizing that he actually had this talent!
Ding!
Favorability from Wang Su +15, friendliness (65/100).
"Then thank you Master Wang. I, Sun Mo, will definitely repay you generously for this kindness!"
Sun Mo burst into tears with gratitude. Who is Wang Su? A four-star famous teacher. He came here early in the morning just to help. This favor is too much.
"What are you talking about? I am the vice-principal of Zhongzhou University, and that girl is also my student. It is what I should do to find her."
Wang Su said in a stern tone: "It's you, why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"It was my fault."
To be honest, Sun Mo did underestimate Wang Su's broad-mindedness. Although he was competing with An Xinhui for the position of principal, he had deep feelings for this school. Unlike Zhang Hanfu, it was purely for his own benefit.
Wang Su took the portrait and left.
"Master Sun, who is missing?"
Rudy asked and wanted to help, and then he began to envy Sun Mo. Look at how good he is, even Wang Su took the initiative to visit him.
He had heard that Wang Su invited Sun Mo to join the famous teacher group, but Sun Mo refused.
"Lu Zhiruo!"
Sun Mo said casually.
"Is she this girl? I'll help you find her too!"
Rudy took a portrait and prepared to ask for leave today. He would first help Sun Mo find someone. Of course, this time he had no intention of selling his favor, but was purely worried about the student's comfort.
"Thanks!"
Sun Mo was also polite.
At noon, Sun Mo went to the girls' dormitory again, but Lu Zhiruo still hadn't returned, and there was no news from other aspects.
"Teacher, would you like to eat something and then take a rest?"
Li Ziqi persuaded her because she was worried that Sun Mo would suddenly fall ill.
Sun Mo waved his hand and analyzed whether it was Zhou Yong who did it. It shouldn't be possible, right? He couldn't be so crazy, right?
Kidnapping Lu Zhiruo would not do him any good. You must know that this is a crime. If you catch him, he will be sent to the border to be sent to the army as a military slave. Rather than taking this risk, it is better to spend money to find someone to break his legs.
But at times like this, every possibility must be considered, so should we ambush and monitor?
No, I can't do this kind of thing myself, because I'm not good at it. If I alert the enemy, I'll be in trouble. It's better to go to Ren Laolang, they are professionals.
Sun Mo returned to the dormitory and took a potted plant.
If you want the horse to run, you have to feed it. Sun Mo doesn't have much cash, but this potted plant is very valuable and will work just the same.
However, Sun Mo walked out of the door and ran into a triangle eye before he even went downstairs.
"Teacher Sun, we may have found your beloved disciple."
When Triangle Eyes spoke, he was obviously much more respectful than last night.
"where?"
Sun Mo grabbed Triangle Eye's hand.
"Sanqing Temple in the eastern suburbs of Jinling!"
Triangle Eyes hurt from being pinched by Sun Mo, but he didn't dare to scream.
"take me!"
Sun Mo urged.
Li Ziqi quickly followed.
…
After leaving the east gate of Jinling City, thirty miles to the east, there is a Taoist temple.
According to legend, five hundred years ago, a white-haired Taoist swam here on a crane and rescued a little woman who had jumped into the river. When asked why, it turned out that she was unable to give birth to a child and was rejected by her husband's mother-in-law.
The Taoist laughed, took out a pill, and gave it to the little woman. After half a month, the doctor diagnosed the happy pulse.
Later, the child born to this woman was talented and intelligent, worked hard, passed the imperial examination, became a Jinshi, and finally became a prime minister.
After the prime minister returned home in honor, he remembered what his mother had said about this experience, so he built this Taoist temple to commemorate the Taoist priest Qihe.
Jinling is an ancient capital, famous for its famous mountains and rivers, Zen temples, giant Buddhas, and Taoist temples. There are too many, so this Taoist temple located halfway up a mountain has no scenic spots, so it is usually sparsely visited.
Even if there are people coming, they are mostly newlyweds or women who want to have children to pay their respects and wish for good luck.
…
Ren Laolang hid in the dense grass, chewing a grass root, his face solemn.
If you can't do it yourself, you'll catch a big fish.
Ren Laolang could become the most powerful spy in Jinling City and make a living by selling information. He was really powerful. When he saw so many forces looking for Lu Zhiruo, he did not join them in a hurry, but began to analyze.
These are all powerful forces with strong search capabilities, so you can start searching from places they ignore.
This virtually saves a lot of time and energy.
Generally speaking, if a man is lost, it is basically a homicide; if a woman or child is lost, it is most likely abducted and trafficked.
Ren Laolang started from this aspect and arranged for people to follow a few guys who he had long suspected to be human traffickers.
As for the human traffickers who did this business, Ren Laolang did not look for them, because he believed that those powerful people would come to visit them immediately. They might have been caught by now and are being held in the prison of Jinling Mansion.
He was brutally executed to extract a confession.
What? You said there is no evidence? The important man's beloved daughter has been lost, so he doesn't care about the evidence. As long as there are suspects, arrest them first and torture them.
Ren Laolang's strategy was successful. One of the guys who were suspected of being human traffickers went out the night before and has not come back yet.
After checking further, the guy drove a carriage and left through the east gate.
After receiving the reward from his men, Ren Laolang was worried that they would be in trouble, so he went out in person and found the Taoist temple by relying on his superb tracking skills.
This place might be a den for human traffickers.
Ren Laolang thought of the women who had disappeared in Jinling City in recent years, many of whom were newly married young ladies.
Think again about the reason why this Taoist temple is famous, isn't it because a woman gave birth to a prime minister?
Who doesn’t want to have a son and have a son, and who doesn’t want his son to succeed?
"So damn insidious!"
Ren Laolang cursed. What he despised most was human traffickers because they ruined families. But then, he began to worry that if human trafficking could be made so covert and not noticed for several years, the traffickers must have a lot of background.
I have offended others...
Wait, I'm scared. Based on the trend created by that teacher this time, unless the people behind this gang are relatives of the emperor, they will all be doomed.
When Sun Mo came, he took another path because he was worried about being discovered.
Li Ziqi, who has extremely poor athletic ability, suffered a lot.
"ah!"
Li Ziqi screamed, her right foot slipped on a stone, and she fell to the ground, bruising her leg.
"I'm so stupid!"
Li Ziqi secretly cursed herself for being useless, but she quickly laughed and explained to Sun Mo: "Teacher, I'm fine, don't worry about me."
At this time, we can no longer distract the teacher.
"I'll carry you!"
Regardless of Li Ziqi's obstruction, Sun Mo carried her on his back and continued climbing. Xiao Bao had already followed. As a senior sister who cared about her junior sister, Sun Mo would definitely not complain about her getting in the way.
At this time, on the mountainside dirt road leading to the Taoist temple, Tantai Yutang was holding on to a tree and breathing.
