When Lin Feng and his group were pulling a mule cart towards the city gate, they were spotted by Wang Er who came out of the gambling house.
Wang Er pouted and said, "What bad luck! No wonder I lost again today!"
Not only did I not get back the money I lost yesterday, but I also lost all the money I borrowed from Lao Huang today!
Not only did he not make any money this time, but he also lost all his previous capital. Wang Er was not willing to accept this and thought to himself that he must try his luck again tomorrow!
When he saw Lin Feng pulling two large carts of medicinal herbs out of the city, his eyes turned red with jealousy. He knew the price of these medicinal herbs. The goods in those two carts were worth at least a hundred taels!
Wang Er couldn't help cursing Lin Feng in his heart: "What an ungrateful villain!" He never thought that it was his idea to persuade Boss Lu to abandon Lin Feng!
Wang Er stared fiercely at the two people walking back.
On the other side, Li Yan and Zhou Xun were unaware that Wang Er was staring at them. They strolled around and tasted the local delicacies in Yuezhou City along the way.
When they arrived at the inn, they were already full.
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, Li Yan and her group have been staying in the inn for six days.
In the past two days, Li Yan and Zhou Xun went to the teahouse every afternoon to listen to storytelling.
Just like yesterday, after lunch, Li Yan found Zhou Xun and they went to the teahouse together.
What the two of them didn't know was that they had been targeted.
Boss Lu has been staying in Yuezhou City these days because he has not found a suitable buyer for the furs he brought. He goes out early and comes back late every day to communicate with the shop owners in Yuezhou City. He has no time to ask about Wang Er's whereabouts.
Ever since Wang Er lost all his belongings, he has become addicted to gambling!
He took advantage of his position in charge of the caravan's accounts and secretly embezzled nearly fifty taels of silver!
Now he has not only not recovered his capital, but also lost all the public funds that he secretly embezzled.
He really had no way out, so he set his sights on these two people!
He heard that there was a very wealthy official outside the city who was looking for a pretty girl to buy. When he heard the gossip, Li Yan's pretty face immediately appeared in his mind.
Then the idea of kidnapping Li Yan and selling her lingered in his mind and couldn't be shaken off.
Now he has no choice. He has already lost all the money. If his cousin finds out that he has embezzled money, he will probably kick him out of the team!
Thinking of this, Wang Er thought it would be a good idea to kidnap Li Yan and sell her to Yuanwailang. Now that there is no adult around the child, it doesn't seem difficult to kidnap her!
Wang Er followed the two to the teahouse and watched them enter the teahouse!
Ever since Wang Er came up with that sinister idea, he has been keeping an eye on Li Yan's whereabouts for the past two days. Yesterday, he went to the teahouse to pick some, and the backyard of the teahouse was a narrow alley.
Wang Erjiang had rented a carriage in advance and parked it there. He ran to the door of the teahouse, waved his hand, called the waiter to the door, and handed him a string of copper coins.
When the clerk saw the silver and money, his eyes lit up immediately and he quickly reached out to take it.
Wang Er took the money back and the waiter looked up at Wang Er.
Wang Er waved his hand, signaling the waiter to listen over.
The waiter immediately leaned forward, and Wang Er whispered in his ear, "Go and invite that young man to the back door, and tell him that Old Huang has something important to tell him."
The young man looked in the direction Wang Er pointed and saw the person clearly, then he immediately nodded in agreement!
Then he threw the copper coins in his hand to the boy!
