Chapter 45 Charlie the Bald
Tang An was following someone, and he was careful all the way, with the greatest distance. At least Yang Baoguang had never seen Tang An follow someone so nervously.

Finally, before a detached cottage, the man entered the house.Yang Baoguang asked in a low voice outside: "Tang An, who is that bald head?"

Tang An said to Yang Baoguang: "Let me tell you something."

Tang An told Yang Baoguang about Charlie the Bald, because it was Charlie the Bald who Tang An met on the road just now.

To be honest, this was something Tang An didn't expect.As for the bald Charlie, he was a rich man he met at the crossroads before. He hired Tang An and the others to go to Devon County. Mysterious people are regarded as 'materials'.

At that time, one of Bald Charlie's followers was taken away by the mysterious man's ghoul. Tang An also saw it with his own eyes. Later, Bald Charlie left. Unexpectedly, the other party actually lived in Rhine Town.

Tang An still remembered that Charlie the Bald called the mysterious man 'Mr. Green'.

After Yang Baoguang listened to Tang An's story, he also had a look of fear on his face. Obviously this experience was too terrifying, and this bald Charlie was not a good person either. He hired innocent people and gave them to the pervert as materials. You can imagine the fate of those victims. .

"Tang An, according to what you said, this bald man is not a good idiot, let's not provoke him, let's go." Yang Baoguang obviously felt the danger.

Tang An didn't move.

He was thinking about another matter. According to common sense, he should not provoke Charlie the Bald, but looking at the problem from another angle, isn't this an opportunity for him?
What do you lack now?
Short of money.

According to the normal channels, how could it be possible to get the remaining 10 gold coins?
That is almost impossible, but if you take a different approach and use some special means, it may not be impossible, such as cheating, abduction, theft, and robbery.

Tang An can't cheat, steal, rob, and now, he probably can't rob others, so the only thing left is stealing.

Coincidentally, Bald Charlie is obviously a 'rich guy'.

This is the opportunity.

Although there will definitely be great dangers, but for windfalls, there is no one who does not take risks.Tang An gradually planned this matter in his heart, and felt that there was a lot to be done, and that Charlie the Bald was not a good guy, and there was no psychological burden to steal the other party's money.

The question now is how to achieve the goal.

Charlie the Bald couldn't have been the only one in such a big house, so there might have been other people in the house.Tang An had to figure this out.

"Baoguang, you go back first." Tang An said at this time, Yang Baoguang was taken aback, Tang An didn't have time to explain now, Yang Baoguang had no choice, but he didn't go back, saying that he wanted to be with Tang An.

Tang An didn't refuse, and the two of them hid outside Bald Charlie's villa and observed until dawn.

At the same time, Lin Zifeng also stayed up all night in the mansion of the great craftsman Hegrick.

He was biting his fingernails with a vicious expression on his face. This was an action he would subconsciously make when he was thinking about a problem, but this time, his nails were bleeding from biting, and he didn't even notice.

"Unexpectedly, they could actually take out 5 gold coins as a deposit. How did they get so many gold coins? This disrupted my plan, but they wanted to snatch the plotter from me. Don't think about it, I won't let you succeed, never." Lin Zifeng murmured to himself, he decided to take the initiative, and at the moment of breakfast, he asked Mr. Hegrick to give him the plotter to study. , but this matter, Mr. Hegrick obviously did not agree.

"Lin, it's time for you to lay the foundations. You haven't fully grasped those basic engineering theories. The structure of the plotter is very complicated. You need to learn relevant knowledge. It will take at least three to five years."

Hearing this, Lin Zifeng felt resentful and unconvinced, but he knew that it was impossible for him to argue with Heglic now. Others did not know the strength of Heglic, a great craftsman, but he knew it very well.

"Sir, I think, if I have enough gold coins, can I buy a plotter?" Lin Zifeng was the next best thing to do at this time, and he was also pushed into a hurry. Originally, he planned to proceed step by step, but he didn't expect to kill him halfway. Tang An, and the other party immediately paid a deposit of 5 gold coins. You must know that he doesn't even have a single gold coin on him now. I really don't know how Tang An got those 5 gold coins.

Hearing Lin Zifeng's words, Hegrick was obviously surprised.

"Lin, you are my apprentice. You can learn how to make a plotter in the future, so why buy it? Originally, I didn't plan to sell my work, but recently I really need gold coins to buy some important materials. Okay, If you can get the gold coins, I don’t need 20 gold coins, I only need half of them, and I can give you the plotter.” Hegrick was obviously very tolerant of his apprentices, and he also gave them due preferential treatment.

Lin Zifeng was overjoyed.

Although 10 gold coins is also a huge sum of money to him, it is still easier to deal with than 20 gold coins, and the difficulty is directly reduced by half.

"But the premise is that the previous Mr. Tang is not willing to buy it. After all, he and I have signed a contract, so we have to keep credit." Heglic said with a smile.

Lin Zifeng cursed in his heart, but obviously, this gave him a chance.

Just let Tang An give up on his own initiative.

If the other party is unwilling, then Lin Zifeng will resort to other means. Thinking of this, he lowered his head to eat, but there was a murderous intent in his eyes.

……

After a long period of observation and monitoring, Tang An was basically sure that only Charlie the Bald lived in this villa, because at night, only one room in the house was lit, and it could also be deduced from other aspects. this conclusion.

For example, you can see the breakfast from the window. Charlie the bald prepares it and eats it alone. If there are other people around, how can the owner of this house do it himself?

With this conclusion, Tang An's plan has gradually taken shape.

That is to lure away the bald Charlie, and then take the opportunity to enter this villa, such a big villa, search and search, no matter how you can get more than a dozen gold coins.

Maybe it will not only be enough to buy a plotter, but may also make a small profit.

But how to lure away Charlie the Bald?
Tang An also has a plan.

Although this plan is not perfect and it is risky, it is the best way under consideration.

Tang An asked Yang Baoguang to buy the local daily newspaper in Rhine Town, then found letter paper and glue, cut out the words on the newspaper, and then pieced together a letter on the letter paper.

The content of the letter is very simple, with only one sentence, "Charlie, come to me immediately!"

And the signature is "Green".
