Chapter 192 Closing the Net
Spending a night with a beautiful woman and getting money at the same time, what a good deal.
He is not satisfied with 50,000 taels and wants gold. Boss Xu has been in this business for a long time and has never seen such a greedy person!
Give him 50,000 taels and he promises to be there whenever you call.
"If you dislike my age, you can have some Chunfeng Yichusan. We can discuss everything!"
Boss Xu was very enthusiastic and made Sanniang laugh out loud.
How could Sanniang spend money to play with men?
Seeing that the pockmarked face in front of her was extraordinary, Sanniang thought about getting the pockmarked face to bed and using her charm on him. This would provide her with a channel to purchase food and fodder in the future, and she would be able to earn back the money sooner or later.
"make a deal!"
Xie Zhao took the purse from Sanniang's hand first and handed it respectfully to Jiang Yuzhu.
In his purse, there were silver notes worth 50,000 taels of silver.
Afterwards, the two agreed to meet tonight.
After separating from Sanniang and the others, Boss Xu stared at his purse with a gleam in his eyes. He said jealously, "My dear nephew, you are so lucky. You can earn money with a beauty in your arms. Look at Sanniang's figure, her waist is so soft..."
"Congratulations, ma'am."
Xie Zhao handed over the silver and spoke calmly, neither happy nor angry.
From this attitude, Jiang Yuzhu knew that he was angry, but he just didn't show it.
Fifty thousand taels have been deposited into the account. Wouldn't it be nice to donate this money as food to the soldiers in the north in the future?
"Husband, I agreed because I trust you."
Don’t worry about Sanniang and Wuniang, they won’t be able to get the upper hand over Xie Zhao, not even a chance to get close to him!
"You are my husband. I don't tolerate any injustice in my eyes. How can I give you to someone else? It's just 50,000 taels of silver. Am I such a short-sighted person?"
"Don't even mention 50,000 taels. I won't give up even if it's 50 million. This is my principle."
Jiang Yuzhu seized on Xie Zhao's awkwardness and carefully coaxed him.
This was just a temporary measure, and it was also to test Sanniang's financial resources.
Jiang Yuzhu agreed only because she considered Xie Zhao's perspective, not just for her own sake.
After explaining for half an hour, Jiang Yuzhu was thirsty and was about to stop to take a breath and drink tea to moisten her throat. Xie Zhao suddenly came back to his senses and said, "Madam, I was distracted by a plan just now. What did you say?"
Jiang Yuzhu: “…”
The black-bellied big-tailed wolf!
Sure enough, it’s not so easy to get the money from Xie Zhao selling his body!
After separating from troupe leader Xu, the couple stayed at Mi's house.
After arriving at Mi's house, Xie Zhao occupied Mi's study, drinking tea and reading without any panic.
Jiang Yuzhu paced in the room, pointing at the sky outside the window and said, "It's already time to light the lamps, why aren't you in a hurry?"
Inside the room, the firelight illuminated Xie Zhao's face. He had a high nose bridge and clear profile, with a hint of nonchalance. Even with a pockmarked face, he still looked gentle and noble.
"I'm afraid Sanniang doesn't have time to come to see her husband tonight."
The news has been released, and the barbarians should have gone to Longhu Mountain by now.
Xie Zhao's strategy can be adjusted at any time.
Jiang Yuzhu realized that she couldn't hold her temper anymore, so she sat down on the chair as well: "Didn't you say that you were going to wait for Miss Mi to get married? Why did you do it earlier?"
"Do you still remember the incident where Pinkie was hunted down because of a stone-carved sign?"
The stone-carved plaques are called "jade plaques" by the barbarians.
Afterwards, people searched Zhao Fendie's residence many times, but nothing was found.
Jiang Yuzhu nodded solemnly: "Of course I remember!"
Because of the jade pendant, he suffered an unexpected disaster.
After a pause, Jiang Yuzhu understood Xie Zhao's meaning again and asked, "So, you used the jade token as a cover to lure the barbarians to Longhu Mountain?"
Yes, if the barbarians have no interest in the treasures of Longhu Mountain, it will not have the effect of a conflict between the two parties.
The jade token is extremely important to the barbarian and he will never miss it.
"Sanniang is not a barbarian. She should be a subordinate of the black-clad man who controls the nobles in the capital."
In addition to the Xuan family, there are also unknown forces that have close contacts with the barbarians, and it seems that some kind of deal has been reached long ago.
If the barbarians are not eliminated, Xiao She's throne will be unstable.
The capital city is in chaos, and it is a good time to solve the major problem in the north.
Tonight, the couple only needs to wait for news.
Hearing this, Jiang Yuzhu felt a little more at ease.
She noticed that Xie Zhao habitually spent his time on planning and then closing the net, causing the whole body to move if one move was pulled.
"I have accepted the fifty thousand taels of silver. I am very uneasy. After all, it is the money from selling my body. How about serving my wife tonight?"
As for the skills that Master Xu mentioned, Xie Zhao didn't know much, but he was confident that he could master them.
Without waiting for Jiang Yuzhu to express her opinion, Xie Zhao quietly found the official uniform...
At night, the Mi Mansion was brightly lit.
Jiang Yuzhu was extremely tired. She leaned in Xie Zhao's arms and breathed evenly.
There was a sound of hurried footsteps at the door.
"Master Xie, as you planned, all the people in Longhu Mountain have withdrawn!"
Mr. Mi came running to report the news, extremely excited.
As expected of the Xie family, they are in control of the overall situation and have every plan in mind!
Xie Zhao did not come forward. A man in black jumped down from the roof and replied on his behalf: "Master Mi, don't panic. Tomorrow Longhu Mountain will be razed to the ground. None of the bandits will survive. Miss Mi is free to marry."
"Really? That's great, God has eyes!"
Mr. Mi was always mumbling and sent people to inquire about the news at any time.
That night, Yongning Town was not peaceful.
Boss Xu and his men were thinking about the follow-up plan. They were shocked to hear that Sanniang was taking people to Longhu Mountain.
Realizing that something was wrong, Boss Xu decided to take his men to avoid the spotlight first. However, before he could even leave the troupe's door, a man in black rushed in and stabbed him in the neck.
"Oh, there are large banknotes on him. The Xu family has a lot of treasures!"
Hongxiu and Hongjin rolled up the bundle and started to pack things. Their eyes lit up when they saw the silver bills.
Once it is handed over to her wife, she will definitely be praised!
Thinking of this, the two maids became more motivated.
The night passed quickly and the rooster crowed for the first time.
Jiang Yuzhu woke up slowly and found herself leaning in Xie Zhao's arms.
After waking up, Jiang Yuzhu stared at the hand on Xie Zhao's chest and asked, "Where is the teapot my father gave me?"
"Don't worry, ma'am, they are all here."
The two hundred thousand taels of silver notes were not lost, and all the treasures and silver in the hands of Master Xu, Longhushan and Sanniang were taken over by their side.
With such a huge sum of money, the northern soldiers could get winter coats, some medicine and even food.
Xie Zhao didn't expect to have such a gain on the road. His men followed Sanniang and found another clue.
"Yuan He, there will never be another man as outstanding as you in this world!"
Jiang Yuzhu couldn't help but admire him and made up for the 50,000 taels of silver she had collected from Sanniang.
"Madam, you are so kind!"
Xie Zhao suddenly remembered that he gave Jiang Yuzhu a wedding night, and it was her first time, and he only got two taels of silver.
Using a pockmarked face mask, fifty thousand taels a night. Even if Sanniang has ulterior motives, at least the money is real!
