As soon as the young man said this, everyone in the conference room looked at him.
"Have you seen them?"
The eldest master suddenly stood up from the tiger-head chair and came to the young man's side in a few steps. "Son, are you sure you have seen the two people in the portrait?"
The young man nodded confidently: "I have seen it."
"Hahahaha! It's like searching for something unsuccessfully, but it finally came to me without any effort!"
The boss, who was originally scowling, burst into laughter when he heard that the young man had met Jiang Jingyu and Tan Tai Si.
He grabbed the boy's neck and said, "Goudan, tell me, where did you meet these two people? Do you know where they went?"
The boy's face darkened: "Dad, don't call me by my nickname!"
"Okay, okay, don't scream, don't scream!"
The eldest boss slapped his lips lightly and muttered softly, "What do you know? A cheap name is easy to maintain. If I hadn't named you Goudan, you probably wouldn't be alive!"
After realizing that his son was staring at him coldly, the eldest boss hurriedly smiled ingratiatingly.
"Changce, tell me quickly, when did you meet these two? Where did you meet them? Where are they now?"
Only then did Shen Changce withdrew his gaze with satisfaction and looked at the portrait in his hand.
"Just two days ago on the road to Fengdu, but Dad, there seems to be something wrong with your portrait."
Shen Changce was the one who dressed up as an old beggar to ask Jiang Jingyu and Tan Taisi for money a few days ago. Since he had met the two of them before, he could tell at a glance that there was something wrong with the portrait.
"What's wrong?"
The boss came up to him and took a close look at the portrait in his hand.
Shen Changce raised his lips into a sinister smile, pointed at the two faces in the portrait, and explained, "The faces are in the wrong place."
"Wrong face?"
Everyone said in unison and came over.
Shen Changce tore off the two faces from the portrait and swapped them.
"Here, this is what they really look like."
“This, this, this!”
"No wonder, no wonder! I was wondering why something seemed a little off!"
Looking at the portraits after the exchange, everyone excitedly clapped their hands on the table.
That's right!
"Damn it! How dare that shopkeeper cheat us! I'm going to settle the score with him right now!"
The bearded man shouted angrily and was about to rush out to Qinghe Town.
"Hey, Uncle Hu, don't be impulsive. Have you forgotten the rules of our Qinglong Village? Good citizens should not be bullied!"
Shen Changce grabbed the bearded man and stopped him.
"Chang Ce is right. The shopkeeper was probably afraid that the people in the portraits would cause trouble for him, so he deliberately reversed their faces. Now that the truth is out, let's not bother with a mere shopkeeper!"
Another big man echoed.
Shen Changce winked at the man: "Uncle Ying still understands me!"
"Boss, I'll take the portraits to an artist and have him copy hundreds of them. I don't believe we can't find the whereabouts of these two!"
Uncle Ying picked up the portrait after he finished speaking, but the boss raised his hand to stop him.
"No need."
"Ah? Boss, shouldn't we continue searching for these two?"
The eldest boss narrowed his eyes and said, "Chang Ce met them on the way to Fengdu. He went to Fengdu at this time for one reason."
"Martial Arts Competition!"
The people present all thought of the same thing in unison.
The big boss snorted coldly: "That's right, if you want to find them, just go to the martial arts competition and wait for them."
"What the boss said makes sense. Before the martial arts competition begins, let's pack up and head to Fengdu!"
Several people gritted their teeth, wishing they could rush to Fengdu and capture Jiang Jingyu and Tan Tai Si right now!
"Wait, wait." Shen Changce stopped them: "No, Dad, how did these two people provoke you? Do you have such a big grudge against them?"
Although he didn't get any money from Jiang Jingyu and was scolded by her in the end, Shen Changce was not angry about it. Instead, he enjoyed the feeling of being controlled by someone.
As the child of the leader of Qingyun Village, Shen Changce's childhood was undoubtedly lonely. All his friends around him avoided him, fearing that they would accidentally provoke him and bring about fatal disaster.
When Shen Changce was young, he wanted to play with them, so he stopped one of them.
The moment he stopped the little boy, the boy's sister ran over and protected the boy.
From that day on, Shen Changce always wanted a sister, a sister who could protect him like a boy's sister.
It's a pity that his wish is destined not to come true.
That day, Jiang Jingyu hooked her arm around his neck and warned him to stop lying in the future. This action satisfied all his fantasies about his sister.
Shen Changce even thought about becoming sworn brothers with her if he had the chance in the future.
But now the person he wanted to worship as his sister has become the target of his father's arrest?
The boss pursed his lips, took out the two identical silver ingots from his arms and handed them to Shen Changce.
"Revenge for the annihilation of the entire family!"
As soon as the voice fell, the eldest boss was the first to leave the conference room, and the others followed closely behind.
Shen Changce was startled and hurriedly chased after him.
"Dad, Dad, wait for me, is there any misunderstanding here?"
——
The old woman's husband was a doctor. After returning from the mountains to collect herbs, he took Jiang Jingyu's pulse and prescribed a prescription for her.
It was already afternoon when Jiang Jingyu finished drinking the boiled medicine. It was difficult to walk in the mountains at night and there was no place to rest nearby, so the old woman persuaded them to stay.
There was no extra room in the old woman's house, only one empty room. The old woman wanted to live in the same room with Jiang Jingyu so that she could take care of her when she had a stomachache at night, but Jiang Jingyu refused.
