Daming: Old Zhu, we agreed not to rush!

Chapter 476 Can’t say it now

Liu Banxian was in a very good mood after receiving the money.

Although he said there was no commission for this matter, Liu Banxian couldn't help but look forward to it whenever he thought of the possibility between Su Jing and Zhiyi.

Helping Zhiyi now is tantamount to tying up Su Jing's thighs even more.

Money or not, it’s all trivial.

However, Liu Banxian had been 'running around' all day, and now he really didn't have the energy to rent a house.

"There's enough time anyway, don't be in a hurry."

Liu Banxian muttered to himself and walked back towards Uncle Renyuan's mansion.

In just two sticks of incense, Liu Banxian finally returned to the house. As he walked from the front yard to the back yard, Liu Banxian didn't notice the servant.

Although there are not many servants in such a big house, seven or eight servants, it is a bit strange to not see any of them.

"Master Su is really unique."

Liu Banxian knew immediately that he must be related to Su Jing, probably because he was used to living in Lishui County.

However, although the servants did not see it, the house was not dark at all.

Lanterns were lit everywhere, and Liu Banxian felt luxurious looking at them.

How much oil is needed to make so many lanterns? It’s all money!

It is no exaggeration to say that wealthy people spend money like water.

"The life of a rich person is so different. I didn't expect that I would be able to live in such a big house when I die. It is considered a life worth living."

Liu Banxian happily headed towards the side house in his backyard. Before he arrived, he met Su Jing coming towards him.

"Liu Banxian, I thought you were staying up all night."

Su Jing joked with a smile.

Su Jingbao has considerable tolerance for this old man.

Liu Banxian smiled and waved his hand and said, "Master Su, that's wrong. No matter how late you go out, you will always go home and sleep."

"It's not safe to spend the night outside casually."

Although he had just moved to the capital, Liu Banxian's ability to 'recognize family' was quite profound.

Su Jing naturally didn't care, and just continued to joke: "What's so unsafe? Is it possible that someone else has a waist?"

"kidney?"

Liu Banxian subconsciously touched his waist and said nervously for no reason: "Master Su, is there anyone else in the capital with such a hobby?"

Su Jing was stunned for a moment, and then said: "It's nothing, I'm just talking casually. Human kidneys are not pig kidneys. Is it possible that the form should be used to complement the form."

There was no talk of organ transplantation in Ming Dynasty, so Su Jing immediately made up for it.

But as soon as he said this, Liu Banxian became even more nervous. He covered his waist with his hands and said, "It's true! Mr. Su's reminder is reasonable. It seems that I have to be more careful in the future, old man."

"Those old prostitutes might be jealous of my waist!"

Liu Banxian is very confident and cares about his waist!

Su Jing felt helpless after hearing this.

"Forget it, just be careful. I'm going to have some midnight snacks. Do you want to eat?"

Su Jing said to Liu Banxian.

Normally Su Jing is not in the habit of eating late night snacks, but now she is a little hungry. Now that she has changed the house and has a standard cook, Su Jing wants to eat something.

"Of course!"

Liu Banxian agreed immediately. He was also hungry now.

"Okay, then I'll ask the cook to make an extra serving."

Su Jing nodded and walked towards the kitchen.

Liu Banxian said in confusion: "Mr. Su, you can't just let the housekeeper arrange such a small matter. Do you still need to run it yourself?"

Su Jing replied: "It's nothing. Butler Li was sent out by me to do some work. He won't be here right now."

Butler Li isn't here?

Liu Banxian was confused for a moment, but didn't think too much.

After a while, supper was brought to the living room. Su Jing and Liu Banxian each had a bowl of wontons.

"This cook is very good at cooking!"

Liu Banxian ate one and immediately praised it.

Su Jing nodded: "It's indeed good."

After all, he is the exclusive cook of the uncle's house, so it goes without saying that his skills are high.

There weren't many wontons, only about a dozen. After all, it was just a late-night snack, not a full meal. It was enough to fill my stomach a little.

Just when Liu Banxian finished eating and was about to leave, Butler Li came back in a hurry.

"Uncle."

Butler Li came into the hall, took a breath, and bowed to Su Jing.

Because Liu Banxian was here, he didn't speak for the first time.

"It's okay, just say it."

Su Jing said lightly.

It's just a small matter of renting a house. Whether Liu Banxian knows it or not, it doesn't have any impact.

"Yes, uncle."

Butler Li immediately said: "The matter has been found out. It was Yahang who rented out the outer courtyard of the uncle's house to make a profit, and then found connections to drive the tenants out to prevent the uncle from discovering it."

"There are not many people who handle it, just a steward and a boy from Yahang. The official job that drives people away is just to collect money to do things."

After all, Empress Ma personally selected the housekeeper, so he is quite capable.

It had only been a few hours since I left home, and the ins and outs of this matter were clearly investigated.

In such a short time, Butler Li must have put in a lot of effort.

However, Su Jing did not give any praise, but said coldly: "What about the people who were deceived? Have their circumstances been investigated clearly?"

Butler Li was confused, lowered his head and said, "I haven't replied to my uncle yet."

"You don't understand why I asked you to check, Butler Li."

Su Jing looked at Butler Li, and she really wanted to vent her anger.

Even if I didn't say a few words, I could still manage such a thing.

"I'll go check it out now!"

Butler Li said immediately.

Su Jing waved her hand and said: "Forget it, that's it for today. Let me check it carefully tomorrow. Remember, don't alarm others for the time being. I don't want new problems to arise."

"Yes, uncle!"

Butler Li nodded immediately and felt relieved.

"Okay, go down and rest."

Su Jing rubbed her temples helplessly. Moving was indeed prone to all kinds of troubles!

Why Su Jing doesn't like living in a big house and finding a group of servants is because all kinds of bad things will happen.

The forest is big and there are all kinds of birds.

As the house grows, all kinds of unpleasant things will naturally happen.

Butler Li said that the investigation was clear, and Su Jing basically agreed. This is the normal situation.

Even though it involves the Renyuan Bo Mansion, in fact there are usually not many people actually involved.

First of all, for things like renting a house, the profit from the operation will not be particularly large. If there are too many people involved, it will not be enough.

Secondly, because the profit is not much, big people often look down on it, which means small people will worry about it.

Thirdly, this kind of operation only requires a few people at the bottom to collude, and the people above will not know about it.

In her previous life, Su Jingke had seen too many news about little people doing 'big things'.

The smaller and inconspicuous the person, the easier it is to do things that others may not think possible at first glance.

After Butler Li left, Su Jing said to Liu Banxian again: "Liu Banxian, it's time for you to rest."

Liu Banxian immediately smiled and said: "Mr. Su, don't be in a hurry." "Hmm? Do you have anything else to do?"

Su Jing was slightly curious.

It's getting late now. If Liu Banxian still has something to do, he might not know when it will be done.

Liu Banxian looked at Su Jing, stood up and said in deep thought: "Master Su, since you want to know something, why don't you ask me to figure it out?"

Fortune teller?

Su Jing was a little confused by Liu Banxian's sudden words, but after just a moment, he immediately said: "Liu Banxian, do you already know who the tenant who was deceived is?"

It was Liu Banxian's turn to be surprised by this. He, who had been a fairy just now, directly asked: "Master Su, can you tell fortunes? Do you know this kind of thing?"

The chance encounter between Liu Banxian and Zhiyi just happened.

After coming back, Liu Banxian didn't tell anyone.

Su Jing pointed it out directly, which really shocked Liu Banxian.

Su Jing shook her head and said: "I can't tell fortunes, I just guess."

Guess?

Su Jing frowned and stared at Su Jing: "Master Su, did you really not send anyone to follow me?"

Su Jing chuckled and said: "Of course there is no such thing. I just guessed that you know who the tenant was who was cheated, but I don't know who the tenant is."

Why Su Jing could guess it was because Su Jing didn't believe in Liu Banxian's fortune telling.

Since you don't believe it, and Liu Banxian is so direct and determined to ask for the settlement, it can only be because he already knew.

"real or fake?"

Liu Banxian still didn't believe it and muttered.

Su Jing asked: "Liu Banxian, who is this tenant? Tell me so that I can come and apologize conveniently."

Su Jing's idea is very simple. If this incident affects the tenants, they must apologize and compensate.

This is why he was annoyed with Butler Li for not checking who the tenant was.

Liu Banxian shook his head and said, "I can't say it yet."

The connection between Su Jing and Zhiyi cannot be concluded by Liu Banxian. This is the rule!

Even now, Liu Banxian still insists on adhering to the rules.

"Then when can we tell?"

Su Jing asked back.

Liu Banxian replied: "I can tell you when you find out."

???

Su Jing was confused by Liu Banxian, what does this mean?

"Liu Banxian, listen to what you said? After I find out, what else do I need from you?"

Su Jing looked at Liu Banxian and really didn't know what to say.

Liu Banxian looked embarrassed and said: "Then I can't tell you now. Anyway, Mr. Su, you can find out. After you find out, you will know."

Su Jing frowned and couldn't figure out why Liu Banxian did this.

"It's up to you, I'm going back to rest."

Su Jing stood up and went back to her room.

Liu Banxian went directly to Butler Li and asked, "Butler Li, are there two tenants, a young lady and a servant?"

Because Butler Li didn't give the tenant's detailed information just now, Liu Banxian didn't dare to completely confirm it.

But judging from the confessions of Butler Li and Zhiyi, there is a high probability that they are correct.

Butler Li immediately said: "Yes, sir, do you know who those two people are? Please tell me, sir. I would be very grateful!"

Butler Li was really scared after being scolded by Su Jing just now.

Liu Banxian shook his head and said: "Steward Li, I'm sorry. It's not that I don't want to talk about it, but I can't. You'd better check it yourself. It shouldn't be difficult to check."

Tell Butler Li himself, and then Butler Li will tell Su Jing.

Liu Banxian would not do such a roundabout thing to deceive himself.

"Liu Banxian, please have mercy on me! Tell me!"

Butler Li immediately played the sympathy card. The sooner he knew who it was, the sooner he could report it to Su Jing.

This could mean whether he could continue to work in Renyuan Bofu in the future.

Liu Banxian pushed Butler Li's hand away: "Sorry, sorry!"

After saying that, Liu Banxian left directly, leaving Butler Li feeling uncomfortable.

……

Early the next morning, Butler Li and Liu Banxian went out.

Butler Li naturally wanted to continue investigating the renting matter, but Liu Banxian was not going to rent a house.

Now that he knows that this matter is between Su Jing and Zhiyi, Liu Banxian definitely doesn't have to waste Zhiyi's money.

Liu Banxian can still trust Su Jing's character.

As long as Butler Li finds out the matter, everyone who should be unlucky will be unlucky.

Zhiyi's rent can also be refunded, and it is even said that Su Jing will provide some additional compensation.

However, Liu Banxian is a little confused now.

Because he didn’t know Zhiyi’s address.

At this moment, Liu Banxian had arrived at the street where he met Zhiyi yesterday, but at the same location, the stall was not Zhiyi's.

Liu Banxian was not surprised. He had already asked clearly when he inquired about the stall.

The stalls on both sides of the street are rented out day and night.

Day and night are two shifts in themselves.

Is it possible that we have to wait until night?

Liu Banxian searched carefully around but still couldn't find where it was.

The capital is really too big!

"That's wrong! How could I forget that I am a fortune teller!"

Liu Banxian thought for a moment and felt that what he had just done was really stupid.

He directly counted with his fingers to calculate Zhiyi's current approximate location.

In just one cup of tea, Liu Banxian had already figured out the direction to the southeast.

Liu Banxian didn't stop and immediately headed southeast.

After walking for a while, Liu Banxian found that his destination seemed to be a place he had been to before.

Of course, it's not a place with flowers and greenery, but the Jinling branch of Jinling Hotel.

Looking at the hotel door in front of him, Liu Banxian stepped in without hesitation.

Having been here once before, Liu Banxian was quite familiar with it.

"Hello, sir, how many are there?"

The waiter was very discerning and came up to him.

Liu Banxian glanced around and said calmly: "No, I'm looking for someone."

The waiter stepped back knowingly. Liu Banxian searched for a while and found the target.

As expected, Zhiyi and Tashi were in the Jinling Hotel, eating.

The location is not a corner, but somewhere in the middle.

That's right, they came here just to get information.

Restaurants have been a place where people talk a lot since ancient times, and eating is the best time for gossip.

If you want to know something, it's perfectly normal to come to a restaurant and ask around.

The Jinling Hotel branch is one of the famous restaurants in the capital, so it is naturally Zhiyi's first choice.

Liu Banxian walked over with a smile, knowing that he had gotten this meal. (End of chapter)
