Crossing the Swordsman: Lin Pingzhi, the Swordsman of Evil

Chapter 539
Just as Lin Pingzhi was hugging the shivering little girl, Lin Pingzhi suddenly heard that there seemed to be other guests coming from the next door.

Then Lin Pingzhi listened to the movement next door with the method of heart sword.

Although it didn't sound like a bad thing at the root of the wall, some words of those people really aroused his interest.

Because what these people speak is not Chinese, it seems to be Mongolian, and it seems to be other languages. Anyway, what they are talking about is not the Central Plains dialect.

Although I couldn't understand what they were saying, there was one word these people kept saying.

The word is "Ada!"

Lin Pingzhi frowned at this moment, and he said softly, "Jurchen!"

Hearing the word "Jurchen", Qu Feiyan, who was sticking to her husband, raised her head and asked, "Oh? Jurchens?"

The voices of Lin Pingzhi and the others were very soft, and this inn was considered a relatively luxurious inn in the capital.It's not that the inn's sound insulation is not good, it's that Lin Pingzhi's skill is too deep, and he deliberately listens.Therefore, he could hear what the other party said, but the other party could not hear what the husband and wife were saying.

Lin Pingzhi directly covered Qu Feiyan's small mouth with his hands, and then Lin Pingzhi continued to listen.

But after listening to it, he couldn't understand anything except "Ada".

Although he couldn't understand, he also got the message he wanted.

Because many materials outside the customs need to be purchased from inside the customs, it is not uncommon for Jurchen businessmen outside the customs to come to the mainland.

The Han people can get mink fur, bear fur and other furs from them, as well as high-quality medicinal materials such as Korean ginseng, bear bile, and tiger bone.

And the Jurchen merchants can import food, rice wine and other daily necessities from the mainland to return outside the customs.

But the guy next door to him is definitely not a businessman.It should be the minions under Nurhachi's command.

The reason is simple, these people keep mentioning the word "Ada".

"Ada" is the only Manchu language that Lin Pingzhi knows, and this is also learned from watching TV dramas in his previous life.

This "Ada" means "Khan" or "Emperor" in Chinese.The average businessman doesn't repeat the word over and over again.

Who is the Khan of the Jurchens right now, there is no doubt that it must be Nurhachi.

Lin Pingzhi didn't know what these Jurchens wanted to do when they came to the capital suddenly.However, Nurhachi was ambitious and coveted the Central Plains for a long time. Maybe they came here to spy on the Central Plains.

But then Lin Pingzhi heard a familiar name, that is "Li Chengliang".

After all, the languages, names, and place names of various ethnic groups are basically transliterated and literal, and rarely translated into the native language.

After hearing the name, Lin Pingzhi thought: "It seems that the inn has not been in vain for the past few days. I didn't expect to have unexpected gains. I didn't find the house. I didn't expect to wait for the secret work outside the pass."

Lin Pingzhi knew Li Chengliang very well.

He can be said to be the founder of Nurhachi.Some people even joked that Nurhachi was Li Chengliang's illegitimate son.

Although Li Chengliang was a famous general in the late Ming Dynasty, he raised his own self-esteem and filled his own pockets, so he was definitely not a good guy.

If he hadn't tolerated and raised traitors, it would not have been so easy for Nurhachi to unify the Jurchens and establish the "Later Jin" regime.

But right now Lin Pingzhi doesn't want to interfere with the development of the times, after all Li Chengliang is not a good person.But right now only he can stabilize the situation in Liaodong.

As for Yuan Chonghuan, Mao Wenlong and others, it is estimated that they are still newcomers to official career.

Two hours later, Ji Wushi, who was covered in wind and snow, slowly came to the inn. He knocked on Lin Pingzhi's door and said, "My lord, please see me, night owl!"

Lin Pingzhi put away the sleeping Qu Feiyan in his arms, covered her with a quilt and said, "Come in!"

Looking at Ji Wushi whose face was covered by ice and snow, Lin Pingzhi said: "Master Ji has worked hard, I don't know if he has found a suitable house?"

Ji Wushi replied: "I would like to inform you, my lord, that Ji Wushi was lucky enough to find a high-quality residence for you." After finishing speaking, Ji Wushi handed over a map to Lin Pingzhi.

Lin Pingzhi took the map and looked at the location marked on it, then nodded and said: "This location is good. It's not far from the imperial city, and it's not too far from Beizhen Fusi. And it seems that the surrounding area is still very quiet. It really meets my requirements." Lin Pingzhi looked at Ji Wushi and continued to ask, "How about the price?"

Ji Wushi replied: "This house is the property of an old eunuch in the palace. The old eunuch passed away not long ago, and his nephew put the house up for sale. His subordinates asked the dentist, and this person quoted a price of 5000 yuan. 1 taels of silver. Na Yaji said that the owner is in debt and needs money urgently. If we suppress the price, we should be able to get [-] taels of silver.”

Lin Pingzhi asked, "Have you seen the house?"

Ji Wushi replied: "Of course, my subordinates have seen it. It is a small house with three overhanging beam houses. The yard and wing rooms are all available. Moreover, the house is still very new. It seems that it has been renovated not long ago. The subordinates sneaked in Afterwards, it turned out to be pretty good.”

Lin Pingzhi said: "Very good!" As he spoke, Lin Pingzhi took out the bank note his mother had given him before leaving.

Then he took out 5000 taels of silver and handed it to Ji Wushi.

Lin Pingzhi said: "Mr. Ji and Miss Huahong have been working hard on my affairs during this time. There are 5000 taels of silver here. Take it and buy this house. You just said that Ya Ji The offer is [-], and you can counter-offer [-]. If there is any money left, it will be the hard work of you and Miss Huahong."

Ji Wushi was not polite, and then took Lin Pingzhi's money.

After all, these retail investors in the Jianghu are not as "rich as an enemy" like Lin Pingzhi.They have no source of income.

After Ji Wushi collected the money, he planned to discuss the matter of buying a house.

But Lin Pingzhi said at this time: "Young Master Ji, wait a minute."

Ji Wushi turned around and asked, "I don't know what orders Mr. Lin has?"

Lin Pingzhi said: "There are a few Jurchens from outside the pass next door. Tell the believers hiding in the capital to pay attention to them and find out the purpose of their trip. Then tell Miss Huahong that I will find them later. When she is here, let her tell me. There are a lot of fish and dragons in this capital, and my status is special, which is very conspicuous. I don’t know how many eyes are staring at me. Therefore, there are not many people in this capital that I can rely on. In the future, I will Please take care, Mr. Ji."

Ji Wushi waved his hands and said, "Young Master Lin, what did you say? Ji Wushi's life was rewarded by the leader, so he should go through fire and water for the leader."

Lin Pingzhi said: "By the way, my relationship with Yingying must be kept secret."

Ji Wushi said with a smile: "Don't worry, Mr. Lin, night owls are not such indifferent people. I know what to say and what not to say. Right now, I'm just looking for Mr. Lin who is new to the capital. It’s just about the dental history of the house. As for other things, I’m not in charge of the ‘dentist’. Please don’t worry about this, my lord.”

After Ji Wushi finished speaking, he bowed to say goodbye to Lin Pingzhi, and then left.
