Chapter 25 Price 2
Du Lin understood in an instant, and suddenly felt dumbfounded, she was so blatantly deceived, and lamented the indifference of human feelings in vain.

Fortunately, although she was tricked, she didn't lose money. At least Lanna proved his ability from the side, and judging from his future achievements, she will not lose money after all.

However, this does not mean that she will suffer from this dumbness. Anyway, Lanna has already passed the soul contract, at least in the past few years before adulthood, it will be in her hands and will not cause trouble, so it is okay to assign him more work So logical.

After taking care of her image, Du Lin came to Lanna's room next door.Lanna was not surprised to see Du Lin coming again, instead she stood up and poured tea shyly, as if the two were already familiar with each other and hadn't seen each other for a long time.

Du Lin couldn't help laughing. Although she felt that Lanna's actions were not authentic enough, she still accepted it. She really didn't like being polite, especially the people around her. It was really troublesome to deal with the complicated etiquette of the nobles every day. .

Bringing the tea to Du Lin, Lan Na also sat beside him and poured a cup for himself, with a half-smile and said: "My lord will settle accounts after autumn, I'm so nervous."

Du Lin choked on a mouthful of tea and almost spit it out, "Okay, I've already recruited you and signed the contract. I'm not the one to make trouble." Coughing twice to calm her breath, she cut to the chase , "My family will stop talking about those polite words. I'm short of manpower right now. Let's start working when you come. I have one thing for you to handle now." What she fears most is this kind of guy who is not afraid of boiling water. Why, looking at it now, Lanna has such a tendency, so sad.

She told about Xiulan, and then watched Lanna's reaction.

"This matter is very troublesome." Lanna immediately said after hearing this: "Although that person is famous outside and in our circle, adults may not know it when he first came to the emperor. Stubborn, once he decides on a goal, he will die to the end, and he is not doing his job properly and has no scruples, he can do anything, although he has no great skills, he is the kind of person who everyone hides in the imperial capital. It's almost impossible to get someone out of his hands."

After listening to Lanna's words, Du Lin immediately thought of a series of word combinations - hob meat + dead pigs are not afraid of boiling water + toad + stinky dog ​​feces. Although such creatures are not very lethal, they are extremely difficult and disgusting. .

Xiulan provoked such a person, but it also explained the doubts in her heart all the time. Although the old guy didn't show much in her memory, he was definitely very shrewd. If he could run away, he would never look for the Duck family again. After all, in this way, the lies he told before were exposed by himself.

"I just want to get Xiulan back, and I'll leave this matter to you. In terms of intelligence, I'll ask Supervisor Daikin to get it." After finishing speaking, she got up and left.

Looking at the back of Du Lin leaving, Lanna fell into doubts. She didn't mention the matter of returning the magic crystal, which was really unusual.Although the top-grade magic crystal has a market price of [-] gold coins, it has always had a price but no market. There is often a lot of human value attached to real transactions. This rare resource represents a kind of soft power to a certain extent, but she unexpectedly Didn't think about coming back...

Du Lin didn't know Lanna's doubts. After she came back, Da Jin also came back from Orvis and was waiting for her.After listening to the report on the feasibility of the business, she handed over Lanna's affairs to Da Jin and asked him to tell Lanna about the progress of the matter at any time. Get in touch and get the first shipment ready over there.

Cousin Orvis's work efficiency is quite good, and he returned the results of his test at noon the next day.The Earl of Heihe didn't discuss this matter, even if his relatives came to discuss it.

It was not a surprise for Du Lin to hear the news. The news she received from Lanna had already prepared her in her heart, so her current plan was to meet with Xiulan and collude with the news. Maybe that old fox had his own means maybe.

Orvis went to the Earl of Heihe's mansion again, and stayed until dark before returning. Finally, he brought good news. The Earl of Heihe agreed to let them meet.

That night, Du Lin and his party visited the Earl's mansion in the name of being very worried about Xiulan, and finally saw Xiulan and the Earl of Heihe.

Orvis is very good at observing words and expressions. When he first came to the Earl of Heihe's mansion to test things out, after discovering the Earl of Heihe's attitude towards Xiulan, he always regarded himself as Xiulan's relatives, and Du Lin and his party were also positioned by him in this way.Therefore, although Orvis and Du Lin's intention was to fish Xiulan out, in the eyes of Earl Heihe, they just heard about Xiulan's recent situation by accident and came to visit his relatives, so Du Lin and his party People are still well received.

Earl Heihe is a handsome middle-aged man with a sly smile on his face, but his eyes are clear and sharp.

Compared with the legendary Earl of Heihe's unreliability, today's reception is quite satisfactory. Seeing this, Du Lin felt more and more uneasy, and she also read from the fat face of her cousin Orvis that the matter was not easy to solve. signal of.

Before things became stalemate, Du Lin didn't dare to reveal her determination to get Xiulan out. Instead, she followed Orvis's strategy and only pretended to know Xiulan's whereabouts by accident, and happened to come to the imperial capital. So check it out by the way.

For a while, the host and guest chatted happily, and Orvis provoked the leader with a wink, and Du Lin became a foil for no one to pay attention to, but this was exactly what she wanted, taking advantage of Orvis to attract Earl Heihe Attention, she happened to think of a way to connect with Xiulan.

Although Xiulan's appearance has not changed, it is very different from Du Lin's memory. The main reason is that her temperament and demeanor have changed a lot. The previous Xiulan always had a faint sense of superiority, and even more of the joyful and peaceful attitude of an elf. breath, but now Xiulan looks very melancholy, and has an inexplicably stubborn feeling, which makes her feel very wrong.

How should I put it, recalling the past, Xiulan was a very tactful and sophisticated person, her words and deeds were impeccable, her overall performance was quite mature, and more importantly, she was full of vicissitudes accumulated over the years.In fact, this is very normal. No matter how late the elves mature, Xiulan should have matured too. After all, he has lived in the Dark family for hundreds of years.

But now Xiulan is full of that kind of stubbornness that is pure and ignorant of the world, and at first glance it looks like a stubborn boy.A person can become mature from pure, but it is impossible to become pure again from maturity. At this moment, Du Lin has confirmed that he is pretending.

Compared with the eye-catching ones before, if Xiulan doesn't pay attention to him now, he can hardly notice his existence, but Du Lin is sure that Xiulan's acting skills are more mature.

After all, they came to see Xiulan. Of course, the Earl of Heihe couldn't stop everyone from talking to him. When the conversation reached topics related to the water and soil of the imperial capital, Du Lin finally found a chance to talk to Xiulan.

"Are you still used to the water and soil here? I'm not used to it. There are too many people in the imperial capital, and it's always very noisy." Du Lin looked at Xiulan as if looking for a bosom friend.

"No, he's adapted well." Earl Heihe grabbed the conversation and looked at Xiulan with a doting expression.

Xiulan glared at Earl Heihe, and said angrily: "Someone is very adaptable, of course I can!"

Earl Heihe laughed loudly, and said to everyone: "Don't worry, he is just like that, with a hot temper."

Then Orvis talked a lot with Xiulan, fully expressing the concern of a loved one. Du Lin found that Earl Heihe obviously threatened Xiulan with his eyes, but Xiulan stared back stubbornly.

This scene is a good interaction in the eyes of the uninitiated, but Du Lin realizes the seriousness of the problem.Xiulan has been acting since they entered the door, not even a hint from his eyes, even when Earl Heihe's attention was all attracted by Orvis, he didn't dare to make any gestures when he saw the rescuers, This is enough to show how bad Xiulan's condition is.

Seeing this state, Du Lin resolutely gave up the plan to collude with Xiulan, and the group quickly said goodbye politely. Orvis handed the gift Du Lin had prepared to Xiulan, but was instructed by the Earl of Heihe The person took it, and he stopped the potted plant that Xiu Lan took out as a gift. He excused that the gift was too light, and replaced it with another expensive gift, but this made Du Lin feel even worse.

Back at the post house, just as Du Lin went back to her room to rest, Lanna knocked on the door and came in.

"My lord, good news and bad news, which one do you want to hear?" Lanna cut to the chase.

Now that Du Lin had heard enough of the bad news, she said, "Let's talk about the good news first."

"Your Xiulan is in a very bad situation now, I think you are aware of this, but I have already thought of a way to solve this matter."

Du Lin nodded, "This is really good news, so what is the bad news?"

Lanna picked up the tea on the table and poured himself a cup, "The bad news is that your Xiulan is in a bad situation, so this plan to get him out will involve many people, please move a few of them It costs a lot of money, plus some other things, and it costs a lot of money."

"Let's hear it." Her life is not a pig's foot, it is so realistic, she needs gold coins to open the way wherever she goes, the point is that she doesn't have gold coins yet.

"Fraud group, my lord has heard of it."

Du Lin was surprised, "The scam group?"

"Well, a scam group." Lanna was a little proud, "We formed a fraud group and set up a trick to trick Xiulan back from the Earl of Heihe."

Du Lin was speechless, "This is your method? Although I don't want to say it, how can you be confident, young man." It's not that she doesn't believe in the cunning of the blue fox, but that deceiving people also requires life experience. As for the group, even if Lanna is able to learn without a teacher, where can he get the same group of prostitutes who are proficient in this field? Teammates like pigs are terrible, okay?

As if understanding what Du Lin was thinking, Lanna approached mysteriously, "My lord, I happen to have such a person in my hand. I found out when I was investigating the news before, and they all had quite a lot of experience before." Those with good grades can’t do anything else, they can easily do this.”

Du Lin is really inexperienced in this area. Since Lanna said yes, let him do it. Throw the cash box out of the storage ring. Anyway, the budget is here, and there is no need for an extra copper coin, and this item The incident made her realize that it was time to get some money to turn around.
