my wife is queen

Chapter 62 Hand Crossbow
Who knows if this girl is a prostitute arranged by Liu Eitou, Li Mian is wearing a satin round neck robe, everyone can tell that he is from a wealthy family.

As long as you can take the opportunity to extort a sum of money, it is possible to have more than ten times more money than the usual money hoarded by pricking fire.

Li Mian waited until Liu Goose came up to him with a stick, and looked him over carefully.

Liu Eitou is older, he should be about forty from the appearance, and his body is slightly fat, not like the dark complexion of the lowly households nearby, but more like the pampered and wealthy family, looking white and fat.

Liu Eitou is wearing a straight embroidered piece of Songjiang purple flower cloth, which is similar to a scholar's gown. While the material looks quite exquisite, the workmanship is also very exquisite. It should be Suzhou embroidery.

He also holds a Sichuan fan in his hand, which is a folding fan produced in Sichuan. The fan is covered with gold leaf, also known as the Sajinchuan fan.

Before Liu Goose came up, he yelled five times and six times, yelling at Li Mian to go away, delaying him to capture the girl.

It can be seen from Li Mian's clothes that at least he must be a son of a wealthy family, and he needs to be polite.

Liu Goose held the folding fan with his left hand holding his right hand, arched his hands and said, "Please don't meddle in this matter, Mr. Qin Liangyu, this bitch owes me ten taels of usury, and I have already promised to pay it back in three months, now It has been three and a half months, and the money has not been repaid. There is no reason to lose money in business, as long as she repays the money, I will let her go immediately, and will not sell her to a secret door."

Li Mian was always on the sidelines, not paying attention to Liu Eitou, and he didn't care how to deal with the girl.

On the contrary, it was because he didn't express his opinion, standing by the side without saying a word, which made Liu Goose's head undecided.

If any fallen people or beggars had stopped in front, Liu Etou would have waved his hand long ago, and the sticks behind him would rush forward, beating up those who stood in the way first.

In the loan shark business, prestige is especially important. Only when the nearby residents are afraid of him, will they pay back the money honestly.

Liu Etou couldn't touch Ning silk, and he could tell that Li Mian was wearing silk and satin. Unless it was absolutely necessary, he would not easily form a grudge with him.

Liu Eitou is not a reckless man like a gangster, earning money depends on brains, even if he wants to get money from the rich man in front of him, he has to make a trick to let him get in.

It's not a problem to go on in a stalemate. There are many fallen people and beggars watching here, and the prestige of the goose head must not be damaged.

As long as the prestige is affected, the consequences will be extremely serious, and there will definitely be some fallen people and beggar households who will not repay the loan sharks.

Liu Etou held the hands of the Jinchuan fan, and cupped his hands in the direction of Wucheng Bingmasi: "I have a good relationship with Lu Guangzu, the deputy thousand household of Wucheng Bingmasi, and I often sit and drink together. The young master should give Lu Qianhu a face and get out of the way."

Li Mian understood what he meant. It wasn't because he had a good relationship with Lu Guangzu, but because he was telling him that the official standing behind Liu Etou was Lu Guangzu.

Lu Guangzu's official position is the deputy Qianhu of Wucheng Bingmasi. In this way, it is equivalent to Wucheng Bingmasi standing behind Liu Etou.

Li Mian was not surprised that a street thug was able to collude with the important yamen in the capital, Wucheng Bingmasi, but felt that it was reasonable.

The most profitable business in this world is nothing more than two, one is a prostitute, and the other is a gambling house.

Caochangyuan, as the place where the two major private prostitutes in the capital gather, of course has an intertwined relationship with the Wucheng Bingmasi.

Before Li Mian could speak, the pheasant slave next to him was unhappy, and tried to widen his eyes, which seemed to be more intimidating: "You hurry up, or my uncle will knock you to the ground. It's amazing, with the ability to walk through Yang with a hundred steps."

Liu Eitou had spent half his life in the market, and he was extremely proficient in human affairs. When he heard the little maid say something like uncle, he immediately understood it.

The polite attitude on his face disappeared on the spot, and his eyes were full of contempt and disgust when he looked at Li Mian.

Liu Goosetou sneered: "It turns out that you are a son-in-law. Just because of your lowly status, you are no different from a fallen man or a beggar. You still want to take care of my affairs. I see that you are tired of living, so get out of here quickly." open."

Liu Eitou was sure of Li Mian's identity because of a few short words that the little maid said about my uncle, and he guessed the way to it.

Ordinary young masters would only bring their own maid with them when they went out, and that little maid called out my uncle.

This sentence expresses a meaning, the little maid is from the wife's family, so Li Mian is the son-in-law.

Li Mian didn't want to take care of this matter at first, lest someone make a mess, and proudly boasted that he was a hero who saved the beauty.

However, Li Mian was not a timid person, so he untied a satin bag from his waist, which looked a bit like a satin bag with a folding fan.

After Li Mian took out the contents of the cloth bag and folded them in twos and twos, his true colors were revealed.

Liu Eitou was startled, and hurriedly backed up a few steps, and the five big and three thick sticks behind him also backed up again and again.

What Li Mian held in his hand was not a folding fan that scholars often used, but a crossbow.

This is a sketch drawn by Li Mian himself. The folding hand crossbow was made by a skilled craftsman. It can be folded into the size of a folding fan, and it is very concealed when hung on the waist.

Li Mian is cautious in his work. He built the folding hand crossbow to guard against danger. It can be opened quickly and turned into a crossbow with great penetrating power.

Liu Goose backed back continuously, all the way back to the back of the sticks, and shouted: "He only has one crossbow in his hand, and he can shoot at most one crossbow arrow. We don't need to be afraid of him if we have a large number..."

Before finishing this sentence, Liu Eitou's words stopped abruptly, and he couldn't say a word anymore.

The sticks were even more frightened, and there was no longer the eagerness to move when Liu Gontou spoke, ready to swarm up and grab Li Mian, and kept retreating tremblingly.

It was not enough for Li Mian to press one crossbow bolt on the hand crossbow, and then took out seven or eight crossbow bolts from the satin bag, and pressed them in one by one.

After all the crossbow bolts were pressed in, a whole row of crossbow bolts was lined up under the slot containing the crossbow bolts.

Li Mian stared at Liu Goose's head, and said casually: "You can come and try, is my master's Zhuge Liannu capable of shooting more than ten crossbow arrows in succession as in the rumors?"

When Liu Eitou heard the words Zhuge Liannu, his scalp became numb, and he immediately became frightened, and quickly shut his mouth and did not speak.

He didn't read the book and didn't have much knowledge. He didn't know how Zhuge Liang was recorded in "Three Kingdoms".

"Popular Romance of the Three Kingdoms" has a great reputation among the people. Even children of a few years old know the familiar Guan Yu and Zhuge Liang, not to mention Liu Etou who often takes a stick to worship Guan Gong in the Guandi Temple.
