A knife in love

Chapter 3010

The man in gray didn't expect the old man in gray to be so familiar with the lending business between pawnshops, he was astonished, he didn't dare to trick the old man in gray, and said honestly: "Although we and Taidang and several other pawnshops have business and money Exchanges, but at most a few thousand taels of silver can be borrowed and repaid, and borrowing tens of thousands of taels of silver is impossible."

The old man in gray nodded after hearing what the man said, then turned to the old man in blue and said, "We don't have enough cash in the pawnshop right now, can we pay 5000 taels first, and the remaining 5000 taels? Let us and Tai Dang borrow the silver and give it to the guest officer, I don't know what the guest official wants?"

When the old man in green robe heard that the old man in gray wanted to use 5 taels of silver to collect the jade scale, he was ecstatic in his heart, but when he heard the buddy said that the cash was insufficient, his heart sank again, and he was hesitating in his heart, and he didn't answer for a while.The short fat man and the man in the yellow shirt saw the old man in the green robe groaning silently, feeling anxious in their hearts, they couldn't help but looked at each other.The short fat man laughed dryly, and said to the green-robed old man: "Brother Wu, the young master is in urgent need of money right now, although 5000 taels of silver is not enough, but we brothers can find a way to gather a few thousand taels more, so we can deal with it for a while. What's more, Dachaofeng said that he will definitely collect the remaining 5000 taels of silver as soon as possible. Why don't we take 5000 taels of silver and hand it over to the young master to handle the affairs, and wait for Dachaofeng to collect the silver and hand it over to us? The danger of the young master has been relieved. Wouldn't it be good if the two were not delayed?"

After the fat man finished speaking, the man in the yellow shirt continued: "Second brother Yao is right. I think it's the best way to do this, and it won't delay the young master's affairs."

After hearing what the short fat man and the yellow-clothed man had said, the green-robed old man turned his head and glanced at them, then set his eyes on the young man leaning against the screen, and said, "What do you think, sir?"

The young man looked a little terrified, looked into the eyes of the old man in green robe, and couldn't help but took a step back, his vest was already on the screen.He had no choice but to take a few deep breaths, and then said: "Everything is up to Mr. Wu, I have nothing to say."

When Murong Danyan saw the young man's appearance, he became suspicious. He lowered his voice and said to Li Qiufeng: "Brother Li, don't you think this master and servant is a bit strange? The old guy surnamed Wu claimed to be the young man's servant. But he is domineering in his words and deeds, and has no respect for the young man. The young man obeys this old guy and looks extremely afraid, how does he look like a master and a servant?"

Li Qiufeng glanced at Murong Danyan, waved his hand to her lightly, and signaled her not to speak.Murong Danyan had no choice but to shut up, and looked towards the lobby through the square opening on the counter board.The old man in green robe nodded, and said in his mouth: "Since the young master has left the matter to my subordinates, I can only reluctantly do what I can."

After he finished speaking, without waiting for the young man to speak, he turned around and said to the gray-clothed old man, "Since Da Chaofeng can't afford 5 taels of silver right now, it's a pity, but I'm grateful for Da Chaofeng's generosity. My friend, I have made a deal. As for the first payment of 5000 taels, I don’t think it is such a trouble. Let’s take the jade scale away first, and after Da Chaofeng has collected 5 taels of cash, we will go to Qingtianju to find my son At that time, we will hand over the silver with one hand and the jade scale with the other, saving a lot of trouble."

Just now the gray-clothed old man said that after receiving 5 taels of silver, the green-robed old man showed a surprised look, and all the onlookers saw it with their own eyes.What's more, 5000 taels of silver is already an astonishing amount. In other pawnshops, it is not easy to pawn the jade scale with 1 taels of silver.So everyone thought that the green robed old man would agree and take away the 5000 taels of silver first.Unexpectedly, the green-robed old man didn't care about the gray-clothed old man's ideas at all, which was beyond everyone's expectations.

After the gray-clothed old man finished speaking, a look of surprise appeared on his face, but the look was fleeting.He glanced at the green-robed old man, nodded, and said: "In this case, the guest officer will take the jade scale away. After the old man has collected all the silver, he will go to Qingtianju to meet the guest officer."

The green-robed old man chuckled, and said, "It's the best. But good things don't wait for anyone! Since Dachaofeng knew that this jade scale was not a mortal thing, he would not be blind if he wanted to come to other pawnshop shopkeepers and the head of the court on the island. I also took a fancy to this jade scale, and my son was in a hurry to use the silver, so we had to pawn the jade scale to another pawnshop. When Da Chaofeng wants this jade scale again, he only needs to take out 5 taels of silver gone."

Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan heard the words of the old man in green robe, their hearts were clear, knowing that the old man in gray robe saw that the old man in gray clothes was determined to win the jade scale, and he only wanted to get more money from the old man in gray clothes, so they refused to go ahead. Instead of taking away 5000 taels of silver, he wanted to take away the jade scale, which made the old man in gray anxious, trying to get the silver together as soon as possible.At that time, he could try to reason that there is a pawn shop willing to pay more money to take Yucheng, and force the gray-clothed old man to take out more money to take Yucheng away.Although this person's martial arts is not weak, he is also quite cunning, but he is too greedy, and he will be very unlucky to meet the wise old man in gray.

When Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan were thinking about it, they only heard the old man in gray say: "The guest officer is very right. This thing is a rare treasure, and it also involves a secret matter of the Tang Dynasty. If someone who knows the goods, even if you want to He took out 10 taels of silver, and he would be willing to exchange the silver for it. Songtian Yandao Hidden Dragon Crouching Tiger, maybe someone is willing to give more silver in exchange for jade scales, but it is not surprising. The guest officer will go back to Qingtianju first, The old man gathers the silver as soon as possible, and then goes to Qingtianju to meet the guest officer."

The old man in green robe saw that the old man in gray spoke plainly, and he couldn't see if he was anxious because he wanted to take Yucheng away, so he felt a little uneasy.I saw the old man in gray holding the jade scale with both hands, and handed it out from the square opening on the counter board wall, saying: "This item is precious, the guest officer must be careful when carrying it with you, and it must not be damaged by dropping it."

Seeing the old man in gray handing over the jade scale, the green-robed old man hastily stretched out his hands to catch the jade scale, took two steps back, laughed dryly twice, and said in his mouth: "I will keep in mind the words of the great emperor. Chao Feng collects the money as soon as possible, and we will see you in Qingtianju."

After he finished speaking, he turned his head and glanced at the man in yellow shirt.The man in the yellow shirt understood, and hurriedly walked to the green robed old man, carefully took the jade scale over, put it back into the leather bag, and then carefully put it into the box.The green-robed old man cupped his hands towards the gray-clothed old man, then turned around and walked out of the pawn shop.The man in the yellow shirt followed closely behind the man in the green robe, bypassed the screen in an instant, and disappeared from everyone's eyes.Humpty Humpty walked up to the boy, smiled, and said, "My lord, let's go too."

Although he called the young man the son, but his face was frivolous, his eyes were full of jokes, how could he have the slightest respect for his master?Seeing this situation, Murong Danyan felt that the identities of these people were suspicious.Seeing the boy and the short fat man go around the screen, she turned her head and whispered to Li Qiufeng: "This is not a servant accompanying the master, it's clearly a robber holding the hostage!"
