Mysterious Tang Dynasty

Chapter 300 Rent
Shopkeeper Zheng is of course going to ride a horse.

He just fought with someone and was injured, and now he is tired and sore, not to mention soaked.At this time, why does he have to walk on two legs when he can ride a spirit horse?Even if you can use the escape method, it will consume too much spiritual power.

Therefore, after he swallowed two pills, he and Li Lijun rode two spirit horses and returned to the county seat of Hu County.It was just that when entering the city, there was a little problem again.

At this time, the sky had just wiped white, and the sun hadn't come out yet. It took a while before the city gate would open.But shopkeeper Zheng was in a hurry to go back to the Wenfang shop to install the magic weapon that was finally lost and recovered. He didn't want to delay outside the city, so he planned to continue tunneling into the city.However, others can drill tunnels, but Lingma cannot.You want to take the spirit horse back into the spirit beast bag, but now there are two people in the bag, if you let them out, what if they escape on the way?
So shopkeeper Zheng said to Li Lijun: "The county captain has sharp eyes and a good memory. If I ride into the city, he will definitely wonder when I left the city. If I keep pestering me, won't it be troublesome? Please ask seven The lady helped me and took the horse back to the study shop for me. Don't worry, it's all thanks to Seventh Lady that I was able to recover the magic weapon and capture the thief this time. I will never forget your kindness!"

Li Lijun glanced at him, and said: "Shopkeeper Zheng doesn't need to mention such things as kindness and credit. I am not from our Zheng family, and I don't really value these things. If you come from your family, you don't need to mention me." Name, just give me a better discount. I've got work to do, and I'll have to go when I get the horse back to you."

Shopkeeper Zheng was very moved when he heard this.In this way, his contribution is considered solid.If you can keep your status and property, what's the big deal if you give up a little discount?He made a promise on the spot: "Then give Seventh Lady a [-]% discount! If I were someone else, I wouldn't be so generous!"

[-]% off is [-]% off.Li Lijun looked at the shopkeeper Zheng and always felt that he might have to deal with the other party often in the future.After all, this person has a background and a family background, so he is easy to attract thieves, but he is very good at himself, so it is inevitable to ask for help from outside.The next time he wants to beg her, it won't be a [-]% discount.

Shopkeeper Zheng went to drill the tunnel by himself, while Li Lijun rode leisurely outside the city for a while, and finished his practice at sunrise by the way, before he rode his horse into the county town unhurriedly.

When she led the horse into the Wenfang shop, shopkeeper Zheng had already carefully placed the magic weapon, and locked the dying Snitch brothers into a special dungeon. Everything that was left was taken away.Some of the spirit stones among them, he distributed them all to Li Lijun: "There are a few things, and Seventh Lady will just use them. These two brothers are not rich people, otherwise why do they need to be thieves?"

Li Lijun asked him: "What does shopkeeper Zheng plan to do about the accomplices they confessed to?"

Shopkeeper Zheng is actually quite tempted, but he is really at a loss for what to do.Even if the injuries of the two clerks had improved greatly, he didn't dare to leave the study shop easily, because there was still a magic weapon and two felons in the shop.Before the family came to see the magic weapon and the repeat offender, he couldn't let the latter make any mistakes.Now let alone going out with others to hunt down the snitch accomplices, he didn't even dare to step out of the threshold of the study shop!

Even the woman who was hired by the Wenfangdian to cook every day, he didn't dare to let people come to the backyard easily, for fear that someone would take advantage of her loopholes.

He sighed and said: "If Qi Niangzi is interested, call a few friends to try your luck. Don't get entangled with those black market guys, but you can try your luck where they hide their treasures. I'm here Before the family members arrive, I dare not go out again. Even at the other side of the market, I can only let my fellows take a look, and I dare not leave this house."

This is fine.Li Lijun said that he can go to the market with his buddy to see the situation, and he can also have someone to take care of him on the way.

Shopkeeper Zheng was very pleasantly surprised: "Really?! If that's the case, Seventh Lady will help me a lot!"

He immediately called out the buddy he brought out from the cultivation market: "Asha, you go back to the cultivation market tonight with Mrs. Li Qi to check the situation, see if there is any damage to our shop, and make a list. Report me."

Ah Sha still had one arm hanging, so she quickly agreed, and then bowed respectfully to Li Lijun, asking her to take care of herself on the road.

Li Lijun agreed immediately, and then excused that he wanted to go back to his residence to rest. He made an appointment with them, and said goodbye. I passed by the tea house and ordered a breakfast first.

She had an agreement with Erhong that after the latter rented the house, he would leave a small paper crane on the big tree opposite the teahouse.

After Li Lijun had breakfast, she left the teahouse. When she walked past the big tree, the little paper crane floated on her head, and then guided her all the way to a street near the base of the city wall.

This area is quite prosperous, people come and go, there are many people dressed as merchants loading and unloading goods here, and strong poor people come here every day to find odd jobs and help their families. In fact, they all use this place to be close to the city gate. of convenience.In order to meet the daily needs of these businessmen and odd workers, there are a lot of shops nearby, where you can eat, drink, play and play.It is said that at night, the gate of the square in the city is closed, and this area is still very lively.

Following the guidance of the little Zhihe, Li Lijun turned into an intersection on the west side of the main street, and entered a relatively quiet street.This area is a residential area, basically a pattern of two small courtyards, because it is close to the city wall, there are quite a few households that have served as officers and soldiers.The small courtyard rented by Erhong is located at the innermost part of the street. The light is not very good. A view into the interior of the yard.

After knocking on the door, Erhong happily came out and opened the door to greet her, and then led Li Lijun to visit the whole courtyard: "Two entrances, front and back, there are seven or eight rooms, the place is quite spacious, well cleaned, and there is a well in the yard. There are jujube trees that have been planted for many years in the front and back yards, and there are many trees around the outside. With the cover of these trees, outsiders can't see clearly when we move around in the house. Although there is a ditch next to it, the ditch is not too deep , the little lady drilled a tunnel, she can cross over at any time..."

This place is really close to the city wall, and the place outside the city wall closest to the courtyard is an inconspicuous corner.If the tunnel can be dug farther, there is a grove nearby and the long-abandoned earth temple, which can be used as a hidden tunnel exit.And bypassing the grove, not far away is the intersection leading to the pier outside the county town.People come and go there every day, with frequent carriages and horses, and there are several large villages nearby. It is easy for a person to blend in with the crowd and cover his whereabouts.Even if it is not used as a temporary residence, but only as a small station for Zhao Chenji's company in Hu County, this house is quite suitable.

Erhong weighed it over and over again before choosing such a place.She felt very satisfied in her heart, but she didn't ask Li Lijun and didn't dare to boast, so she only rented it for three months.

She asked Li Lijun a little nervously: "Little lady, what do you think? This place...is it okay?"
