Chapter 1888 Mr. Li’s Intentions
Half an hour later, people came back to report that the carriage was ready and parked outside the gate.
Pang Shiwu had been standing on the Nine-Curve Bridge, and couldn't help but give a thumbs up to Young Master Li standing next to him: "Young Master, you are awesome!"
Young Master Li smiled with some pride and said, "It's just a trivial matter, not worth mentioning!"
In fact, he knew that if the letter was not "full of sincerity", the thing could be done, but it would definitely not be done so smoothly!
One, two, three...with half a quarter of an hour left, thirty-seven vehicles will be in place!
Some people borrowed more, and some people didn't borrow anything.
Those who are capable should work harder, and those who work harder should earn more!
The young master fulfilled his promise on the spot, rewarding those who deserved it and punishing those who deserved it!
To those who didn't complete the task, he just said, "Just remember it for now and make up for it next time!" This made Pang Shiwu look at the young master with a new respect!
As the saying goes, he who wins the hearts of the people wins the world. Naturally, he has won the hearts of the people by doing this, and his position in the Li family will become more and more stable in the future!
Young Master Li said, "The carriage is ready. You will serve as temporary grooms and wait for Young Master Pang's orders. You must go wherever he tells you to go and move whatever he tells you to move. Don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask, and don't listen to things that you shouldn't listen to! Do you hear me?"
Thirty-three big men shouted in unison: "I heard it!" The shouts were like thunder, shaking the whole area!
"Mr. Pang, I'll go with you!"
"No, you've been busy all night. Just have a good rest. I can go back by myself. It's late at night now, and it won't be long before dawn. We'll go into the city at dawn, and we'll talk when we meet."
"Okay, then I'll let Li Zhong accompany you out. It will be more convenient if you have Li Zhong with you when you pass through the city gate."
"Okay. Go back. I'm leaving."
Li Zhong was called by his master to give him some instructions before coming out to meet up with Pang Shiwu.
Thirty-three carriages drove out of the city in a mighty procession. Thanks to Li Zhong, the city gate was opened smoothly.
After leaving the city gate, Pang Shiwu said to Mr. Li, "Thank you, Steward Li. You should go back and rest first. It's cold in the middle of the night. Don't catch a cold!"
Li Zhong smiled and said, "Since the eldest master asked me to come, I will definitely do my best. How can I go back? Sir, don't get me wrong, I don't have to see what you want to pull. You don't care about more than 30 strangers, so you certainly won't care about one more of me. I know you are considering my age and poor health, and you let me go back for my own good, but sir, these people are all from my Li family. There are some things that you are not convenient to ask. With me here, I can definitely be more efficient than you in ordering them to work, don't you think?"
Pang Shiwu said: "Thank you for your hard work, Chief Steward!"
Li Zhong said with a smile: "Mr. Pang, don't be polite. Let's get in the car!"
In order not to alarm others, Pang Shiwu asked to clamp the horses and hold their mouths shut!
The moon is bright and the stars are dim, and everything is quiet!
Thirty-three carriages quickly went up the mountain!
Before entering the mountain gate, the horse hooves were also wrapped in cotton cloth!
Arrived in Tallinn almost silently!
Li Zhong saw the person in white clothes from afar!
There were two people standing next to the young man in white, one was thin and dressed in black, and the other had blond hair hanging down his shoulders!
Li Zhong suddenly became excited!
Others don't know, but he is certain that these three people must be the legendary leader of the Mountain Alliance Feng Jiuxiao, Lord of the Sky Eagle Castle Zeng Yong, and the werewolf from the Western Regions!
As expected, Pang Shiwu walked over to the young man in white and said, "Brother, get thirty-three cars." He waved at Li Zhong, who immediately trotted over. Pang Shiwu said, "This is the chief steward of the Li family, Master Li Zhong!"
Li Zhongwan didn't expect that Pang Shiwu would call him "Master Li". This was too polite!
He immediately said humbly, "No, no, I'm just an old servant of the Li family. Please don't embarrass me, gentlemen!"
Feng Jiuxiao glanced at Li Zhong, clasped his fists and said with a smile: "Butler Li, I'm sorry to have you run this trip in the middle of the night. Thank you very much!"
Li Zhong was surprised that the other party was so approachable. He immediately returned the greeting and said, "You're welcome, you're welcome. May I ask... Sir, are you... Feng..."
Feng Jiuxiao couldn't help but look at Pang Shiwu, "Did you tell them who I am?"
Pang Shiwu was stunned. "No? I never mentioned your name from beginning to end!"
Feng Jiuxiao glanced at Li Zhong and said, "Did you tell them your name is Pang Shiwu?"
Pang Shiwu was startled, then he slapped his forehead, "Oh, Master Li came out at that time, and he was so straightforward in his words and deeds. I was so happy that I told him my real name. I didn't expect that they had heard of my name and thought of you!" He turned to ask Li Zhong, "Have you heard of my name?" He was actually a little skeptical that someone in this remote place actually knew him! News in the martial arts world spreads too quickly!
Li Zhong smiled and said, "Of course I have heard of it! I have long heard of Master Pang's name! But I didn't expect that Master Pang and Master Feng are both so young. This is quite beyond my expectation!"
Feng Jiuxiao said: "Since it has been said, it doesn't matter. Let me introduce you. This is..." He raised his hand and led the way to Zeng Yong.
Without waiting for Feng Jiuxiao to speak, Li Zhong rushed to cup his fists towards Zeng Yong and said, "I have long heard of the name of Lord Zeng of Tianying Fort. Today I see that he is indeed very impressive! I am Li Zhong, the chief steward of the Hexi Li Family, and I am honored to meet Lord Zeng!"
Zeng Yong was startled, then secretly delighted. He never thought that his fame had spread to this remote place. Very good! Very good!
He suppressed his excitement and pretended to be calm, "Oh, it turns out to be Butler Li Zhong. I've heard a lot about you!" Pang Shiwu almost laughed out loud. Facing a butler, he actually told the other person that he had heard a lot about him. Brother Yong, can you be a little more hypocritical?
Feng Jiuxiao smiled and said, "I didn't expect that Butler Li has such a wide range of knowledge. I guess you know this person too?" He pointed at Big Wolf!
Butler Li immediately smiled and said, "You are all great heroes and great men of the time. Who doesn't know you? This must be Mr. Big Wolf from the Western Regions, right?"
Big Wolf immediately clasped his fists and saluted, saying in his still somewhat broken Chinese: "Hello, Butler Li, nice to meet you!"
Li Zhong smiled and said, "I'm glad to see you, too. It's an honor for me to meet all of you heroes."
Pang Shiwu said, "Butler Li, everyone is in place, and it's getting late. Next, could you please arrange for everyone to move their things?"
Li Zhong smiled and said, "No problem!" He waved his hand, and all the strong men in tight clothes rushed over!
He asked Pang Shiwu, "Young Master Pang, what are you moving?"
Pang Shiwu pointed at Feng Jiuxiao and said, "Listen to my big brother!"
Li Zhong immediately asked Feng Jiuxiao, "Young Master Feng, what are you moving?" He had actually been guessing that besides the pagodas, there were some tombstones. Could it be that Feng Jiuxiao and the others were interested in these pagodas? But there were less than twenty pagodas here, so thirty vehicles would not be needed!
Feng Jiuxiao asked: "Have you seen these pagodas?"
In order not to attract other people's attention, there is not a single torch here!
Li Zhong took a look in the moonlight and nodded, "Yes, there are a total of... eighteen... uh... nineteen..."
Feng Jiuxiao said, "You don't need to count. There are a total of twenty-one pagodas! Two of them have been moved by us. There is an entrance to the underground room next to them. You can ask these heroes to go down and move the boxes inside to the cars. Because the things are too heavy, put four boxes in each car first."
Li Zhong was startled!
Panlong Temple!
cellar!
box!
Too heavy!
Li Zhong instantly realized that what they were going to move tonight was definitely not simple!
Nine times out of ten it’s gold, silver and jewelry!
Move the box hidden in the underground secret room of the Panlong Temple, this...
Holy shit! Aren’t they too bold? They are so audacious! Isn’t this… isn’t this a blatant robbery? !
Our Li family actually provided thirty-three carriages. Haha, doesn't that make us accomplices?
Li Zhong suddenly fell into deep thought!
What should I do? Should I follow Feng Jiuxiao's advice and send someone down to move the boxes? Or should I pull back from the brink and stop in time?
Once the Li family members start moving this box, even if it's just one box, they will be considered as complicit!
Feng Jiuxiao said calmly: "Butler Li, what's wrong? Are you hesitating?"
Li Zhong immediately smiled and said, "Young Master Feng, can I ask you something..."
Feng Jiuxiao stood with his hands behind his back, expressionless, "I just asked you to help move the Buddhist scriptures and instruments that I stored here in my early years. What are you worried about? Didn't Master Li tell you?"
Li Zhong was stunned!
It seems that Feng Jiuxiao has guessed what he is worried about and directly gave him a way out!
He also instantly remembered what Master Li said before he set off - don't ask what you shouldn't ask, don't look at what you shouldn't look at!
The sound is still in my ears!
Why did the eldest master say that?
If the sky falls, there will be someone taller to hold it up. Why should I ask this question?
Since Feng Jiuxiao said that there are magical instruments and Buddhist scriptures inside, then they must be magical instruments and Buddhist scriptures!
If someone finds nothing but Buddhist instruments and scriptures in the box, it has nothing to do with us!
We, the Li family, are only helping with the moving, but we have no right to check other people’s boxes!
Thinking of this, he looked at Feng Jiuxiao!
Feng Jiuxiao stood still like a mountain, his face indifferent!
But Li Zhong knew that his previous question had already made the other party unhappy!
He suddenly realized the meaning of the words the master said! Before leaving, the master gave him a few more instructions!
Although the master did not say it explicitly, Li Zhong already understood the master's intention!
To put it simply, it would be best if you could establish a relationship with Feng Jiuxiao!
Talking in a more high-sounding way, or trying to put some gold on your face, this is called making friends!
But Li Zhong knew that the master's meaning was very straightforward, which was that it would be best to climb up the big tree of Feng Jiuxiao!
Just from the few words that the master said in praise of the young master at the end, it can be seen that the master really attaches great importance to this opportunity for the eldest young master and Feng Jiuxiao to meet!
Even if Li Zhong didn't know who Feng Jiuxiao was before, he now knew how important this person was to the Li family!
I almost missed an important opportunity just now!
The master seemed to have mentioned that Feng Jiuxiao had a mysterious identity in the Song Dynasty court. Although there were many different opinions in the world, one of them, "He does not kneel when he sees the emperor," seemed to be true!
If the legend of "not kneeling before the emperor" is true, then how transcendent is his status? Not to mention that he dug money from other people's cellars, even if he robbed money openly, who would dare to stop him? Who can stop him? My worries are really unnecessary!
You don't believe in such a great true God, but believe in those "monsters and demons", and worry that the true God will be caught by them. Aren't you crazy?
The more he thought about it, the more he became afraid!
Before he knew it, cold sweat broke out on his forehead!
Feng Jiuxiao remained silent!
He could clearly see the cold sweat on Li Zhong's forehead under the moonlight!
The reason why this housekeeper Li hesitated was nothing more than worrying whether this "digging other people's cellars" would implicate their Li family. This shows that he is a loyal housekeeper who is trustworthy and an upright person!
How could I possibly get so angry at such an upright person?
He has always admired people like Li Zhong!
So he would never force the other party to make a decision!
Nor will it trick the other party into changing their mind!
He wants the other party to make decisions willingly according to his own heart!
Pang Shiwu was a little anxious. He immediately asked, "Butler Li, what's wrong with you?" We had clearly agreed on this. Why are you trying to change your mind now? Damn, are you playing a trick on me? It won't work!
Feng Jiuxiao immediately glared at Pang Shiwu and said, "Don't say anything. Let Butler Li think it over first!"
Pang Shiwu had no choice but to give up in dismay! He turned away! Out of sight, out of mind!
The thirty-three strong men in tight clothes also showed puzzled expressions, but they had a pill in their mouths, which was used to remind them not to talk too much, so now they couldn't say anything even if they had many questions! Unless the butler asked them to take out the pill!
Li Zhong suddenly wiped the sweat off his head and said with a smile: "Young Master Feng, you are taking away Buddhist scriptures and instruments. I thought they were relics of a great monk. I hesitated just now because I couldn't imagine how many relics would require so many vehicles. Haha, it's my honor to serve Young Master Feng."
Feng Jiuxiao said, "No, no, it's our honor to have the Li family come." In the middle of the night, it was not easy to get the whole family to knock on the doors of dozens of wealthy families. No matter from which angle, the Li family has already owed him a favor. In addition, housekeeper Li has a good character. How could he give them a face? He could only thank them!
Li Zhong said a few more humble words and then turned to face the big men of the Li family. He said sternly, "There are two cellars over there with boxes underneath. You go down and carry all the boxes up! If one person can't carry it, work in pairs! I'll be frank with you. Those boxes contain the personal belongings of Young Master Feng, Young Master Pang, Lord Zeng, and Mr. Bigwolf. If anyone dares to open the boxes without permission, don't blame me for being rude! The eldest young master has warned you many times, don't listen to what you shouldn't listen to, don't ask what you shouldn't ask, and don't say what you shouldn't say! Otherwise, whether you lose your hands or feet, it all depends on the eldest young master's mood! Action!"
He turned and walked towards Tallinn, and the big men followed him immediately!
Feng Jiuxiao stood there still without saying a word!
He has already figured out Li Zhong's mental journey thoroughly!
After the big men disappeared from the ground, Zeng Yong lowered his voice and said, "Since the Li family has recognized us, it would be unreasonable not to visit them tomorrow, right?"
Feng Jiuxiao said, "Yes! Didn't Fifteen say that they have alarmed Old Master Li? Old Master Li is very straightforward and made Fifteen at a loss. If we don't go, it will indeed seem that we don't know etiquette!"
Pang Shiwu said, "Brother, since Mr. Li is such a fox, is it necessary for you to go to his house?"
Feng Jiuxiao laughed and said, "How do you know he is an old fox?"
"When he knew my name, he didn't show anything, which means he didn't recognize me at the time, but only remembered who I was afterwards! Li Zhong kept his distance from me before accompanying me out of the city. He obviously treated me as an ordinary guest, maybe a little better than an ordinary guest. He was warm and polite to me, but after Master Li told him some things, he was obviously more afraid of me and tried to curry favor with me. Now that I think about it, it must be Master Li who told him our true identity! How could a butler who doesn't usually go out in the martial arts world know who I am?"
Zeng Yong said: "There is nothing we can do. Even if they are old foxes, we have to finish the job well! Fifteen, it was my idea to move the silver. If it wasn't my idea, we wouldn't have to borrow a car, and we wouldn't have to trouble the Li family. So if you have any grievances, blame me!"
Pang Shiwu said: "Brother Yong, look at what you said. Aren't you insulting me? I was just saying it casually. Since I already owe you a favor, I should find a way to repay it!"
Zeng Yong said: "Yes, as long as the Li family has not committed any unforgivable crimes, it's okay to meet them and express gratitude. Even if... even if they want to take advantage of our power, it won't hurt, right? Right, Jiuxiao?"
Feng Jiuxiao said: "That's right!"
Not long after, someone came out of the cave. Two big men were carrying a box with great effort. You can imagine how heavy the box was!
He took two steps and rested for one step. It took him a long time to finally lift it into the car!
Big Wolf said, "Let me help. I don't think they'll be able to finish moving everything by daybreak."
He walked over and saw Li Zhong supervising there, so he said, "Butler Li, have them all wait at the entrance of the cave. When I bring up a box, they will carry one box onto the cart. You can line up all the carts at the entrance of the cave. This way, as soon as one cart is loaded, it will leave, and the next cart will line up immediately. This way, it will be faster."
Li Zhong was shocked. “Mr. Biggs, do you mean you can do all the work and we will only be responsible for loading the truck?”
Big Wolf said, "Yes." Then the figure flashed and disappeared into the cave entrance!
Li Zhong immediately stopped the big men and said, "Drive the cars over here and line up at the entrance of the cave. You will be responsible for the response. When Mr. Bigger brings up a box, you will load it onto the car. The front and rear cars should be coordinated. Two people will load the cars. Each car will load four boxes and then drive away. Get off the car and take over. Then load again. Do you understand?"
The big men nodded. But they had doubts in their hearts. The blond man from the Western Regions wanted to carry the boxes by himself? How could it be possible? There were so many boxes, and even if he had supernatural powers, he couldn't carry them all by himself. Wouldn't that make him exhausted?
Regardless of whether it was true or not, they quickly got in their cars and lined up.
The line hasn't even been formed yet and Big Wolf has already come up four times!
One box at a time!
If the height of the cave entrance wasn't limited, he would have lifted at least three boxes each time! Of course, it wasn't that he couldn't lift more than four boxes, but the boxes were stacked too high and unstable!
The big men saw how easily the blond man moved the boxes, and they finally understood what it meant to lift a heavy object with ease. They used all their strength to move the box, which required two people to lift. The blond man walked up to the box as if he was holding a pillow, put it on the ground, and then went back to move it easily without even taking a breath!
This is strength!
You can't refuse to accept it! (End of this chapter)
