Chapter 41 The Old Nine Gates



If Li Huashi really colluded with the Japanese, the most worrying thing for Jie Jiuye and Zhang Qishan would be the possibility that Liu Ye might be deceived.

After all, even someone as aloof and difficult to approach as Liu Ye could be accepted as his disciple.

Because Li Huashi was with Liu Ye, Jiu Ye's men didn't dare to get too close to Li Huashi.

After Li Huashi met Jie Jiuye and others, the second person she met was Qiu Dekao.

And because Li Huashi went to see Qiu Dekao alone without telling Liu Ye, Jie Jiuye and the others suspected even more that Liu Ye might be hiding something from her.

It also further confirmed that the reason why Li Huashi changed her mind and returned to Changsha was most likely related to foreigners.

Because Li Huashi went to see Qiu Dekao alone, Liu Ye took the money and prepared to redeem Aunt Bai.

The source of the redemption money naturally came from Shanghai.

Someone like Liu Ye is so skilled and has a close relationship with Li Huashi.

Those who were smart and realized that the money they gave was not as much as what others gave to Li Huashi, all knew how to take a roundabout way and find reasons to give money to Liu Ye.

As long as Liu Ye spent most of his time with Li Huashi and did not use his money to smoke opium or go gangbanging, Li Huashi would not think of taking Liu Ye's money.

In addition, Liu Ye himself has a good eye for antiques and can occasionally find bargains in Shanghai.

The bargains he found were easily sold in the antique shop run by Li Huashi.

The business in the store is basically managed by Sixth Master, and the profits from all the items sold are split 50-50 between the two of them, so whatever money Li Huashi can earn in the antique shop is also what Sixth Master can earn.

This money is more than enough to redeem Aunt Bai.

As for the question of where Aunt Bai would live after redeeming her, Sixth Master had already thought about it.

If Li Huashi is not happy living with Aunt Bai, then he will buy a yard and move out.

After all, Sixth Master is not used to living with his female disciple for a long time, and sometimes it is still inconvenient.

What's more, Li Huashi will get married sooner or later, so Liu Ye plans to take this opportunity to move out.

But he didn't expect that when Sixth Master came to the brothel to redeem Aunt Bai, he heard the news that someone had already redeemed Aunt Bai.

Moreover, the ungrateful man that Aunt Bai owed money to died, and the brothel's madam also died.

The new madam was a snob. She looked down on Aunt Bai, who had few customers and didn't make much money. She thought she was taking up space, so the man who redeemed her didn't spend much money.

After asking who redeemed Aunt Bai, Mr. Liu went to where Aunt Bai lived. Seeing that she seemed to be living well, he left some money on her window and left.

. . . . .

On the other side, Li Huashi and Jude Kao were talking about what happened in the mine.

Jude Kao, speaking Mandarin with a foreign accent, first praised himself from his appearance to his abilities, and then tried to find out about his relationship with Sixth Master and Ninth Master in a roundabout way.

Li Huashi could tell from what she heard that this foreigner was a mysterious person.

So Li Huashi, who was usually too lazy to listen to nonsense, did not urge the other party to speak frankly as before.

After all, Li Huashi was very interested in how much benefit this experiment could bring to her.

The foreigner said that he had information about the tomb under the mine. Li Huashi understood that if she showed any urgency in this matter, the initiative would most likely no longer be in her hands.

So Li Huashi just kept eating the food and ignored what Qiu Dekao said.

Seeing Li Huashi like this, Qiu Dekao talked to himself for a while, and when he saw that Li Huashi didn't respond, he went straight to the point.

"Miss Hua, I can share this information with you. Let's work together. Your people, or Master Liu, can bring our people down to the tomb. As long as we can successfully get the things in the tomb, we can share them together."

When Li Huashi heard this, she put down her chopsticks and looked like she was ready to have a serious chat with the other party.

"Mr. Jude Kao, first of all, there is one thing I need to explain to you. The mine has existed for so many years, but no one has been able to successfully obtain any treasures from the mine.

Even Zhang Qishan and Jiu Ye need Er Yuehong to help, because the information you have and other people's understanding of the mine may not be as much as Er Yuehong's.

So if you just use the information you have to cooperate with me, then I can only say sorry to you.

Moreover, even if we cooperate, I can provide manpower, but neither I nor Sixth Master will go down to this tomb.

I am a person who values ​​my life very much, so I will not do such dangerous things myself.

So if we want to cooperate, please find someone who can work in the mines. Otherwise, I can cooperate with Zhang Qishan."

Qiu Dekao smiled and said, "Miss Hua, I'm afraid you don't know what kind of person Zhang Qishan is. Do you think that if you cooperate with Zhang Qishan, you can get any benefits from the mine? His identity is the defense officer of Changsha City."

Li Huashi: “I may not get any benefits, but I represent more than just myself.

Mr. Qiu Dekao, cooperating with Zhang Qishan is only our worst choice, but it does not mean that I cannot choose it. "

Qiu Dekao: "Even so, why would Zhang Qishan and Er Yuehong want to cooperate with you? Er Yuehong wants medicine, but you don't have any medicine anymore.

If you say that it was the order from someone above you, as far as I know, that person was not Zhang Qishan's superior.

That person probably didn't want other people to know this news, so before he actually got the benefits, he probably didn't want anyone else to covet this mountain that might contain treasures."

Li Huashi nodded: "Mr. Jude Kao, you are really very smart. But there is one thing, Mr. Jude Kao, you may be wrong. Sometimes, if you want to cooperate with others, you don't necessarily need to give them what they want."

Jude Kao frowned, not quite understanding what Li Huashi meant.

"for example?"

Li Huashi curled her red lips slightly and smiled beautifully.

"Like, they didn't have it originally."

For example, they can help them to make things difficult for the Japanese and stop the troubles caused by the Japanese.

For another example, originally Zhang Qishan and his team had no military personnel who would interfere and cause trouble for them, but if they did not cooperate with him, there might be one now.

Jude Kao is a very smart man, so even though Li Huashi's words were subtle, he could probably understand some of it.

So Jude Kao understood immediately.

Li Huashi is the most difficult person to deal with.

Scoundrel.

Jude Kao: "I understand what Miss Hua means, but what Miss Hua may not understand is that if Sixth Master does not go down to the tomb, and we can find someone else who goes down to the tomb, then there is no need for us to cooperate with Miss Hua."
