Just after all of Hua Laoliu's assistants were eliminated, Qian Ruoyu pulled Hua Laoliu to the back alley.
Because of the presence of the Golden Lotus, Hua Laoliu did not dare to make any move and went to the back alley completely obediently.
Qian Ruoyu said, pointing at the entrance to the back alley.
"I wonder if you still remember what happened last night?"
But after hearing this, Hua Laoliu still pretended.
"Last night? What happened last night?"
"I don't know anything. I went to bed at midnight last night. I slept very soundly and I don't know anything. Did anything happen here last night?"
Seeing him being so dishonest, Qian Ruoyu just sneered.
There was no need for Qian Ruoyu to give any further instructions. Jin Lianhua immediately stretched out a palm and slapped Hua Laoliu directly on the back.
With a puff sound.
Hua Laoliu spat out a mouthful of blood.
He could never imagine that Golden Lotus would suddenly attack, and this palm almost knocked him to the ground.
Jin Lianhua's move made Hua Laoliu cry out in pain and he quickly got up from the ground.
"You still have one more chance. You don't have to tell the truth. We have plenty of ways to tell you what happened last night, but we can't say what the outcome will be for you then."
Hearing Qian Ruoyu's cold words, Hua Laoliu was completely frightened, but still wanted to ask tentatively.
"Last night... what time is the last night you are talking about? I remember that something happened here last night... maybe it was because of the two guests and the girls here..."
But before he could finish his words, Jin Lianhua had already stretched out her hand.
Jin Lianhua's move made Hua Laoliu quickly change direction.
"No, no, no... I remember, I remember!"
"Didn't you say there was a convoy here last night? Actually, I don't know much about it. This... this... I'm just helping the Beijing Chamber of Commerce. I really don't know anything!"
But Qian Ruoyu knew very well in her heart that Hua Laoliu had been cheating for a long time, and even at this time, he had no intention of speaking the truth.
Therefore, Qian Ruoyu just took a look at the golden lotus, and the golden lotus immediately became sensible and then came to Hua Laoliu.
Under Hua Laoliu's horrified eyes, she kicked him directly, causing Hua Laoliu to roll twice on the ground.
But before Hua Laoliu could beg for mercy, Jin Lianhua walked up to him and started kicking and hitting him.
After the golden lotus' attack, Hua Laoliu was almost unable to breathe on the ground, with his face and body covered with colorful things.
His body was covered with wounds and his face was bruised and swollen. In front of the Golden Lotus, he had no intention of resisting at all. He was pinned to the ground and beaten like a puppy.
After being beaten, Jin Lianhua drew out his sword and placed it behind Hua Laoliu's neck.
"One last chance."
Qian Ruoyu asked calmly.
"Just be honest, there's no need to talk about other nonsense."
By this time Hua Laoliu already knew that Qian Ruoyu and Jin Lianhua were not joking this time, and he would not be able to shirk his responsibility even if he tried to.
Qian Ruoyu added this sentence just to prevent Hua Laoliu from hiding any facts.
"Be careful. The last chance she mentioned is not just about this matter, but also about everything else."
"You don't think I came here just for this matter, do you? Your alley has not been renovated yet, and I am very dissatisfied! And I know you have no intention of renovating this alley, and you think I am joking with you."
"So this last chance is not just about this little thing. I hope you can grasp it well. If you hide anything, you will be hanging in the east, Caishikou tomorrow!"
Hua Laoliu began to tremble.
The death threat worked quite well for him.
The beating had almost left him speechless, and after Qian Ruoyu's words, Hua Laoliu no longer dared to defend himself.
"Really...it was really the people from the Capital Chamber of Commerce who asked me to help. I am just a small role in this matter. I received 400 taels of silver from the Capital Chamber of Commerce...they asked me to do this!"
But Qian Ruoyu didn't say much, just waited for him to continue.
Seeing this, Hua Laoliu quickly changed his words.
"Well... well, actually I received six hundred taels of silver! Those girls were all found by me near the capital. The girls like to make money, and I just gave them a chance!"
"Besides, I have no idea where these girls will be sent. I am just helping them find someone! The most I know is that these girls will be sent to the west at most, because when this caravan passed through one of the counties, the innkeeper there was my friend."
"Also... the Capital City Chamber of Commerce has actually done this kind of thing many times... I promise that everything I say this time is true, and I am definitely not making it up! Please believe me..."
After seeing his expression, Qian Ruoyu did not express her opinion.
Instead, Golden Lotus took back the sword and slapped him on the back of the head with one final blow, knocking him unconscious.
But Zhang Wei was even more interested in the Beijing Chamber of Commerce. She never thought that the Beijing Chamber of Commerce would play such an important role, and the people in the Beijing Chamber of Commerce should be anxious now.
After all, the Beijing Chamber of Commerce is probably paying a lot of attention to this matter. Even Hua Laoliu, the middleman, has received 600 taels of silver, which means that the amount of silver they can earn from this incident should be more than ten times.
Otherwise, why bother going through so much trouble?
The more this happened, the more Qian Ruoyu felt that he could not stay in the Capital Chamber of Commerce for long, and he even had to dismantle the conspiracy of the Capital Chamber of Commerce. However, Qian Ruoyu thought to himself that at this time, he was afraid that he would not be able to find anyone who could help him.
It was already good enough that the Nine-Gates Admiral could barely help him open the city gate, and the situation on Chu Mobai's side was even more different. Qian Ruoyu thought for a moment and felt that perhaps this matter could only be solved by himself.
Then one of the important reasons is to join the Beijing Chamber of Commerce, but with what identity?
Qian Ruoyu thought about it for a while, closed his eyes, and nodded silently.
Right after that, Qian Ruoyu asked Jin Lianhua to bring Hua Laoliu back to the courtyard and locked Hua Laoliu in a room.
However, Qian Ruoyu and Jin Lianhua did not leave immediately. Instead, they waited near the door for a while.
