One or two branches of plum outside the bamboo

Chapter 207
Yan Qingzhi's words seemed to imply something to him, it didn't matter whether others heard it or not, but Gouzi's hand paused uncontrollably.

After seeing the dog for a while, she didn't plan to chat, Yan Qingzhi lay on the railing for a while, and then returned to her room.

In recent years, even if the glazed lamp is widely used, most people still can't bear the money for lighting the lamp. Therefore, everyone habitually sleeps earlier.

At the beginning of the day, the inn was quiet, except for the sound of rain outside.

A few people were almost done cleaning up, so they blew out some lights, leaving only a little flickering light, which was not bright.

However, after the work at the end of the hall was finished, they also had other things to do. The dog stayed to watch the night, and the three old women returned to the backyard.

If you change to other inns, you will have to lock down the store at such a time.

But there is no such rule here. It seems that the door of the store is always open, and the dog gathers some of his thin clothes and sits in a sheltered position in the hall.

As usual, the dog might take a nap or something, but today he is very energetic. He leaned against the wall, quietly thinking about something, his expression was calm and serious, and he didn't see his usual cheerfulness at all. gloomy.

Time passed bit by bit, and in an instant, it was already half of the hour.

The inn was extremely quiet, as if everyone was asleep. The dog who had been sitting quietly for a long time suddenly raised his head and looked at the empty darkness on the escalator on the second floor. He gritted his teeth and stood up...

In the dark, many things are happening!

Deeper on the first floor, is the residence of the female shopkeeper.

This is a very large suite, more than five times the size of the room where Yan Qingzhu lives.

There are even two front and rear doors, one connected to the front hall and the other connected to the direction of the backyard.

In addition to the living room, dining room, study, bathroom, and everything, there is also a small flower hall in the backyard.

At this time, the shopkeeper was sitting in the flower hall. The flower hall at night was not good-looking, and even looked a bit gloomy against the background of the not-so-bright firelight.

She sat there in a half-sleeved blouse looking through the ledger, and in front of her sat three men.

If Yan Qingzhu was here, one could recognize at a glance that the three of them had been sitting in the hall when they arrived.Now, it is clear that they are not the guests.

They were of different ages, one was younger, he looked like he was in his 20s, and the other two were older.

Several people are dark skinned, dressed in bunts, showing strong arms, and they are not very troublesome to look at.

But with the three of them, the female shopkeeper was not afraid and looked indifferent.

She looked around the three of them, and finally landed on the younger man, speaking rather arrogantly.

"You want too much orchid stone, I don't have it at all."

That person also looked down on the female shopkeeper, but it seemed that because of someone, he frowned and didn't say anything ugly, just asked calmly.

"This batch of blue stones was placed with you by the boss. It's just enough. When the skinny head delivered it, he personally sealed it. How come it didn't come to you?"

However, although his tone was calm, the words were too straightforward, causing the female shopkeeper's expression to change immediately.

"The skinny head seals it, you ask the skinny head to ask for it, can you tell me! Anyway, I don't have it here now!"

The man frowned even more.

"I said Aunt Hua, you're wrong! If it's on the side, I won't say anything, but the amount of Lanshi is not much. This is the main business of the gang. The goods you deducted a few times are already worth it. It's a lot of money, why is it still like this..."

As soon as he heard that he was about to tear his face, the shopkeeper hadn't opened his mouth, but another person said.

"Sixth!"

This man seemed to have some energy, and the man who had been suppressed for a long time closed his mouth with a single sentence. Seeing this, the man opened his mouth to comfort him like a rounder.

"The interests of this colorful stone belong to all of us, so we have to twist it into a rope, so do you, Sister Hua, how much Lanshi has in the treasury and how much it has gone out? !"

Hearing this, the man who was called the sixth man relaxed a little, but immediately, the person who spoke up changed his head and said it on his head.

"Lao Liu, you are also absurd. No matter what the leper said, he is also from Da Li, and he is not of the same mind as us! How can you only believe his words!"

The face of the man named Lao Liu instantly turned gloomy, his eyes turned around the two of them, and finally landed on the middle-aged man who had never spoken.

"Brother Jiu..."

There was a lot of emotion in his tone, but the silent person didn't give him the answer he expected.

"It's getting late, Lan Shi's matter, we will have to wait until tomorrow to order an order before we can conclude. Don't be impatient, Lao Liu, I think what the second uncle said makes sense. After all, the skinny head is not our own. Besides, On the other side of the warehouse, the boss has let people go, don't think about it..."

In this way, the sixth has heard many times, but in the end, the blue stone he can use is getting less and less.

This thing is different from most colored stone powder. It has a strong toxicity. No matter what kind of toxicity is used, it is difficult to eliminate it. If you put it on furniture, the furniture will be poisonous. If you put it on clothes, the clothes will be poisonous. ...there is no solution for the time being.

However, it is precisely because of its relatively strong toxicity that the demand for it is large in the places where there are many poisonous insects, snakes and ants in the Southern Wilderness.

There are many ways to make orchid stone into various medicinal powders, and there have always been a lot of evil demons in Nanhuang. Among them, many secret methods of cultivation require orchid stone, but the output of orchid stone is not that much. And because it is highly toxic, mining is also very troublesome, so the price and profit are very considerable.

Moreover, the significance of Lanshi to them is not only to make money, but also to exchange resources, and use Lanshi to trade some resources needed by the gang with those clans in the Southern Wilderness.

Some of them are also replaced with medicinal materials that are not available in the hinterland of Da Zhao, and it is also a considerable profit to revert back.

It can be said that the core competitiveness of their gang's existence is to master a blue stone vein.

But now this core is being pryed.

The sixth realized that the problem was wrong, and he also said a few words to the boss, but at that time, the boss seemed to have other plans and never gave him an accurate statement, which made him very unhappy.

And this time, the female shopkeeper went too far, and even swallowed the Lanshi he had transferred from others.

He is not a smart man, most of the time, he solves problems by force.

But now force can't solve the problem, because he can't beat the other two, but this suffocation, but he has nowhere to vent.

Glancing at the other three people, seeing that they didn't mean to spit out any money at all, Lao Liu immediately slammed the table and stood up.

"What about tomorrow! I'll wait for you to see it tomorrow!"
