Chapter 23

"Hmph, are you making a deal with me?" The middle-aged man snorted disdainfully. What did he react? Then he looked at Sheng Xi, his eyes filled with disbelief. "Wait, you, aren't you stupid?"

Sheng Xi patiently explained: "Well, it's fine." By the way, he pointed to his head and said, "It'll be fine after a little fall."

This explanation can be used anywhere.

Middle Man: "..." Is it true or false?Why does it sound so unbelievable?

But when he looked at Sheng Xi's state, he really felt that the girl opposite was much different from when he first met.

Seeing that Sheng Xi had no intention of leaving, Zhongren rolled his eyes and simply sat down: "What kind of deal do you want to do? Tell me, and I'll hear if it's feasible first."

"Tell me where my brother was sold to, and I'll give you a rabbit." Sheng Xi said.

The middle man was stunned for a long time: "...Huh?"

Seeing the person opposite looking at her like a magical animal, Sheng Xi decided to add another reward: "Then...two?"

Middle man: "..." Sure enough, it's still not good, right?Otherwise, how could you come up with such a weird deal?Everyone has already sold, so what's the use of asking now.

"No?" Sheng Xi felt that the reward she had given was already a lot. The information she wanted was not secret, and she could definitely get it as long as she inquired carefully.But that would take a lot of time and require more effort.After all, there is no satellite network here, and the information transmission speed is too slow.

Now that there are ready-made people there, she naturally does not need to spend more energy.It was best for the man in front of her to tell her. If she didn't tell him, she would have other ways to make him speak.

Well, Sheng Xi felt that her temperament had changed after traveling through time.In the previous life, why would there be any need to give away two rabbits?

The middle-aged man didn't know what kind of disaster he had escaped, but he had always been a businessman. As the saying goes, business cannot be done without righteousness. Although he didn't have much righteousness to talk about, he couldn't really leave empty-handed and stay in the hotel. The money must at least be reported.

Thinking of this, his eyes fell on the basket behind Sheng Xi. After thinking for a while, he pointed out three fingers: "Three, give me three rabbits and I will tell you!"

"Two." Sheng Xi felt that she was too kind at first, which made the lion in front of her open her mouth.

"Three!" The middle man continued to gesture.

"One!" Sheng Xi's bright eyes flashed coldly, and her face tensed up.

"You girl, why do you keep going back?" The middle man glared at Sheng Xi with great dissatisfaction, "I'm telling you, three is three! If you don't give me three, then you can't get your brother." News! Also, don’t think that other people in Yaxing will tell you. If I speak, see who dares to tell you!" The man said threateningly.

But a little girl still wants to bargain with him?Look at what she is capable of, hehe, hehe...scared?

"Bang!" The man knocked over the stool behind him.

"You, what do you want to do?" The man's eyes were wide open at this moment, his gaze fell on the dagger that Sheng Xi took out from nowhere, and his neck tightened, "I, let me tell you, next to this inn is Willow Squire's family! If you are, if you are that or something...ah, you will be arrested and put in jail!"

"Squire Liu?" Sheng Xi rolled his eyes and reacted.It turns out that Liu Wenzhe's home is next to it. No wonder she feels that the scenery next to it is familiar. "Yes! It's Mr. Liu's house! Are you scared? If you are scared, put the knife away quickly! Put it away quickly!" Although the middle man is engaged in human trafficking, he is actually timid. In addition, Sheng Xi's previous "foolish" "Identity, this person is really worried that she will do something.

No matter what, life is the most important thing.

However, Sheng Xi didn't accept it. Instead, she held it in her hand and turned it around twice.

When the middle-aged man saw her playing with the dagger so neatly, his heart rose directly into his throat: "One, one! Just one! You, you give me a rabbit, and I will tell you where your brother was sold!"

Sheng Xi put away the dagger with some regret, thinking that there was no need to use one.

Seeing her like this, the corners of Zhongren's mouth twitched uncontrollably and he forced himself to suppress the urge to complain.

Later, the middleman told Sheng Xi that not long after Sheng Guangyuan was sold to a dental shop, he was spotted by a landlord's family in the county town and offered to buy him to be a young master and book boy for that family.

"Book boy?" Sheng Xiba smacked the word, and the middle-aged man opposite thought of her nature, and thought of the child who had looked at her eagerly, and couldn't help but said: "Actually, if you ask me, your brother will do it to others. The book boy is a good thing, and it will never be worse than when he was at home. If you think about the current situation of your family, since you sold him in the first place, you must not be able to survive. You can't, you can't still think about killing people. Buy it back?"

"Isn't it possible?" Sheng Xi raised his head and asked.

"Well, this...it's not impossible. That's right, you have to see what the buyer says." And, the most important thing is, you have to have money!
Of course, the person in the last sentence didn't say it, because he was afraid that if he said it, the only rabbit would be gone.Furthermore, he was not afraid that Sheng Xi would go to that rich man's house to cause trouble.Just a little girl like her, although she may have bluffed a little, but what can she do if she bluffs again?Which landlord's house doesn't have a dozen servants and goons?

Once she got the information she wanted, Sheng Xi didn't embarrass the man anymore.There is no curfew in Li country, so Sheng Xi can go wherever he wants.But after all, this is not the era she lived in before. It was dark everywhere and she could only stay in the inn for one night.

only……

"Lend me ten cents." Sheng Xi stepped back and extended his hand to the stranger.

Middle man: "!!"

In the end, the middleman showed kindness (threatened with a dagger) and gave Sheng Xi ten cents, saying that she didn't have to pay it back.Because he really doesn’t want to see Sheng Xi again!Too bad!
Sheng Xi woke up the waiter and asked him to find a room for her, so she stayed here.

Early the next morning, before the rooster crow, Sheng Xi packed up her things and went to Anxi Lane.

She arrived not too late, but there were already many people in the alley.There are many large households in the town, so there will naturally be more purchases.Of course, apart from these big households, ordinary people's lives are better than those in the village. They occasionally buy chickens, ducks and fish as a tooth memorial.

Sheng Xi laid out the hares, pheasants, and wild pigeons, and within a short time a circle of people gathered around them.

She was worth the market price, but because she was in good condition and not frozen like a stone like other prey, she was quick to take action.So, by the time Sun Qiang came to Anxi Lane, Sheng Xi had already sold all of them.

"Miss Sheng, why didn't you wait for me? After all, you waited for me to come. Can't I help you sell it for a few more pennies!" Sun Qiang looked at the prey that everyone bought and felt it was a pity, and muttered It would be nice if I could come earlier.

Sheng Xi packed up her backpack, turned around and said to him, "Let's go, there are good things waiting for you."

Sun Qiang's eyes lit up when he heard this. He must be the one who can be made a good thing by Sheng Xi.So soon, he followed Sheng Xi to an uninhabited alley.

Sheng Xi asked him to wait at the entrance of the alley for a while, and then asked him to come in.Then, he saw a... deer?
