Chapter 16

Zhou Yuan frowned, put down his tea and glanced at these people, shopkeeper Zhu said in surprise: "Master Xing, is there any misunderstanding?"

Master Xing spread his hands and smiled: "There is no misunderstanding, you are just an ordinary rice vendor, what qualifications do you have to share the value brought by Erguotou with me.

Mr. Zhou, in fact, I don't have any malicious intentions, I just want to ask you to tell me about your brewing technology, and I will reward you handsomely. "

After Master Xing finished speaking, he took out a [-] gold ticket and handed it to the guard beside him, asking him to send it to Zhou Yuan.

"Master Xing, you can't do this, this..."

Shopkeeper Zhu was so angry that he forgot the difference in status between the two for a moment, and rushed up to argue, but was beheaded by a guard as soon as he approached.

Zhou Yuan frowned, his heart beating a little fast, this was the first time he saw a life being killed so casually.

Lord Xing didn't even look at shopkeeper Zhu, seeing that Zhou Yuan didn't take it, he smiled and said: "Ten thousand gold tickets are enough to make you rich for a lifetime, it's better than dying here.

To tell you the truth, Erguotou has already been favored by the Empress, so it's not just about money, I don't think I need to elaborate.To die, or to hand over the brewing technology, you choose. "

Zhou Yuan exhaled, reached out to take the golden ticket, Master Xing showed a sarcastic smile.

Zhou Yuan stuffed the gold ticket into his pocket and asked, "Is there a deadline for Your Majesty the Empress?"

"Haha, Mr. Zhou is a sensible person, very good, from now on Mr. Zhou will brew wine in the government's mansion until his people learn the technology of brewing wine.

Also, the Empress wants to take out a hundred boxes of Erguotou within half a month, and this official has already agreed.I think Mr. Zhou still has a lot of stock at home, so don't mind taking me to fetch it. "Master Xing smiled and looked at him. It sounded like he was discussing, but it was actually a robbery.

"Fortunately, there are just over 100 boxes. If Mr. Xing accepts 200 boxes, then Mr. Xing will be charged with the crime of bullying the emperor."

When Zhou Yuan said this, Master Xing secretly heaved a sigh of relief. At first, he was overwhelmed by the benefits promised by his superiors, so he agreed to buy a hundred boxes in a flash.

"Then go get it." Lord Xing didn't want to talk nonsense, first he got the hundred cases of wine, and then he got the technology, and after that, it's all his own to get promoted and get rich.

"Then please ask Mr. Xing to call more people, and help me move all the equipment at home. Those are quite big, and there are a lot of distiller's grains, and there is still wine in them. It will be able to put wine in a few months, which is also very important." It is heavy and requires multiple large carriages," Zhou Yuan said.

"Okay, hurry up and get ready." Master Xing glanced at the people around him, and a group of people immediately ran to get a carriage.

This kind of carriage dedicated to transporting goods will definitely not exist in the mansion, and even if there are, there will not be many, so the guards and servants can only rely on their relationship to get some.

Master Xing looked at Zhou Yuan with a calm expression, and felt a little bit sorry for his ten thousand gold. If he had known that this person was afraid of death, he could have saved the ten thousand gold.

But now he can't force it, if he gets the technology first, then this life and death is his own decision.

Zhou Yuan scanned the area and said, "Master Xing, since you want me to brew wine here, you naturally need to choose a suitable place. The place where wine is brewed has high requirements on the environment, otherwise the taste of the wine will be much worse."

"Of course, I will show you around the mansion." As for the wine issue, Mr. Xing absolutely puts it first, even if Zhou Yuan chooses his own house, he will move out.

Escorted by more than 30 guards, Zhou Yuan walked around the courtyard, finally settled on the storeroom at the back, pointed there and said, "Lord Xing, this location is the best."

Lord Xing nodded, and didn't think much about seeing that the servants around had already gone to prepare the carriage, so he had to ask the guards to move the things out of the warehouse.

Most of them are gold coins and some precious materials. The things are heavy. He didn't dare to damage his treasure, so he quickly shouted: "Be careful, if it breaks, I will break your dog legs."

When the guards carefully moved all the contents to the next room, Master Xing looked around and said, "Young Master Zhou, the warehouse is empty for you..."

He glanced around and found that Zhou Yuan was gone, he quickly shouted: "Where is Zhou Yuan!"

Now there are only five guards next to him, and no one has seen them, and they are all looking around with blank faces.

Master Xing broke out in a cold sweat, and shouted angrily, "I'll find them all, if you can't find them all, don't come back."

The guards didn't understand that a big living person suddenly disappeared, and they all scattered and searched aimlessly.

After the guards left, Master Xing saw that there were four more behind him, and he shouted anxiously, "You guys also look for them for me."

Afterwards, Master Xing looked around, when Zhou Yuan pushed the door out of the temporary warehouse.

Master Xing breathed a sigh of relief when he saw him, and then said angrily, "What are you doing inside?"

Zhou Yuan smiled and said: "Thank you, Lord Xing, for your generosity. The half-month deadline set by the Empress has already passed halfway, and Lord Xing will go all the way."

Master Xing was taken aback, and immediately shouted: "Catch him for me."

When he yelled these words, just as the guards searching around were about to come over, Zhou Yuan used his lightning speed to jump onto the roof. The speed was as fast as a gust of wind, and the roof leaped like walking on flat ground, and the figure had already disappeared within a few breaths.

The three closest guards rushed over, they also saw Zhou Yuan jumping out, and immediately chased after him with their lightness kung fu.

However, their qinggong was too far behind Zhou Yuan's. They had just chased after [-] meters, and Zhou Yuan had disappeared.

At the same time, the guards who dared to come from all around arrived. Seeing that there was no figure of Zhou Yuan around, the leader asked, "Where is anyone?"

One of the pursuers said with panicked eyes: "This man's lightness kung fu is too powerful."

"Continue to search." A person who seemed to be the team leader shouted quickly, and everyone dispersed to continue searching.

When he returned to the hall of the Xing Mansion, he found that Mr. Xing was not there. It was only in the backyard that he saw Mr. Xing standing in a daze in the temporary warehouse, with a heartache on his face.

After approaching, I saw that everything in the temporary warehouse was gone. At this time, Master Xing grabbed the arm of the leader of the guards as if grabbing a life-saving straw and asked, "Did you catch it?"

The leader of the guards saluted and said: "My lord, this person's lightness kungfu is extremely high. It's definitely not that shopkeeper Zhu said he doesn't know martial arts. I'm afraid we won't be able to catch up."

"What!" Lord Xing was horrified, his hands and feet were cold all of a sudden, if there is no goods, then he is really doomed, the empress is not a kind person, the consequences of daring to lie to her are absolutely unbearable.

He looked at the empty room behind him again, and walked into the hall with a face full of despair. When he saw the corpse of shopkeeper Zhu on the ground, he suddenly pulled out the knife hanging from the guard's waist, and slashed at the corpse, crying, "I don't know martial arts!" , do not know martial arts, if I die, I will let your whole family be buried with me."

After venting, he dropped the knife, staggered back, and sat powerlessly on a chair.

After a while, he thought of something, got up and said, "Take someone to arrest his whole family, and sell these people to other races."

"Yes." The guard leader retrieved his knife, turned and left.

Master Xing hurried to his room, and after a while, he ordered his horse to leave.

It was the first time for Zhou Yuan to feel the speed of the wind and lightning. The speed of these guards was simply incomparable to his own. This made him happy and gave him a sense of pride as a warrior.

In fact, he could leave from the beginning. After all, the guards around these petty officials were not experts. It was just for the sake of safety that he designed to send everyone away.

It was already evening when he returned to the Blue Star Hotel. He checked the contents of the storage bag for the first time. He had just put all the boxes in Mr. Xing's warehouse into it, and he hadn't had time to see what good things were there.

Now these big wooden boxes are taken out one by one to check, most of them are filled with gold coins, it is estimated that there are [-] gold coins.

There are also some high-value materials, such as high-grade monster bones and skins, as well as some medicinal materials and pills, which he doesn't know yet, but the value is definitely not low, otherwise there is no need for an official to collect them specially.

In particular, these medicinal materials may be very old, which can be identified by Lu Ying.

I also found some martial arts cheats, which look quite powerful, next time I can ask Huang Rong how these martial arts are, and if they are suitable, I can learn them for my family.

After counting the harvest, he nestled in the sofa and took out his mobile phone to dial his father's number.

"A Yuan, how are you doing over there? When will you be back?" Dad's voice came from the phone immediately.

"I've already gone down the mountain, and I'm going to book a flight ticket," Zhou Yuan said.

"Okay, we'll wait for you at your house." Dad hung up after finishing speaking, and he could hear that he was really anxious.

Zhou Yuan got up to leave. There was nothing to pack. All of them were in the storage bag. He didn’t intend to change the leather clothes on his body. He just showed his father that he had really gone into the mountains. Old style, it's good to get used to it.

After checking out the room at the front desk, the service staff here looked at him curiously when they saw his outfit. Fortunately, there are more people in COS or Hanfu now, and everyone is used to it.
