So I play chess

Chapter 227 What's in the Xinghua Terrace

Tang Mingyi knew that Hua Ji was just showing off, so he would definitely take the initiative to speak up, so he restrained himself from asking "why" along with his words.

Sure enough, seeing that no one came to ask, Hua Ji felt bored, so he asked Wen Liang further: "Mr. Wen thinks, do the masters of the Sun family or the servants who have seen them know who have kung fu?"

Wen Liang went back and forth earnestly: "I'm afraid we can see it, even if we deliberately hide it, at least we can't hide our figure."

People who practice martial arts all the year round, regardless of whether they are masters or low-hands, are the basic kung fu. Maybe everyone has different ways, but these are branches that can only be obtained after finding the way. The most basic part cannot be bypassed no matter what.

It's just that some people practice longer and more exquisitely, while others practice briefly and rougher.However, during this process, some habits that have been accumulated over the years are difficult to get rid of. Everyone has the same experience and basically knows it at a glance.

The reason why masters can see the abilities of low hands is that firstly, they rely on the experience and experience of the world, and secondly, through the opponent's movement habits and even the rules of breathing, etc., they can judge that the opponent is probably at the same level as they were many years ago. , so as to obtain the opponent's basic strength range.

What's more, there is another method that sometimes works and sometimes doesn't work, that is, to see whether a person's shoulders are strong or not, but this can only be used as evidence, and it cannot be judged too specifically, after all, some people have After laying a foundation, he moved towards the direction of flexible body skills and solid lightness skills, so he deliberately avoided the cultivation of body shape.

After Wen Liang answered, Li Mao was finally satisfied, and continued: "So the other party knows that we have some kung fu, but they can't be sure or can't fully think that we are actually a crushing advantage. It is necessary to pick some safe ones to deal with. But the kung fu of these two people is obviously not as solid as those who died in this building."

Hearing this, Tang Mingyi finally got enlightened: "So kung fu is not important, but eloquence is important?"

Hua Ji patted his thigh: "That's right, we have to be delayed by them for a while without realizing it. Then Mr. Tang thinks, why are they delaying us?"

Hua Ji's tone was actually inappropriate, and he actually asked Tang Mingyi as if he were his apprentice, but Tang Mingyi didn't care, and replied seriously: "It must be to hide or transfer some things that we can't see."

Hua Ji slapped his legs again, even claimed "yes", and boasted fiercely: "Young Master Tang is amazing!"

Tang Mingyi was a little embarrassed at this moment, but he couldn't avoid it, so he could only praise: "I'm just following Mr. Hua's words. If you didn't mention it, I really wouldn't have thought of it."

Hua Ji chuckled, and said again: "If there is a secret in this building that we can't see, then we can talk about it, first of all, these flower girls should have nothing to do with the secret, and there is no important person in it , so they don't care about Hua Niang's life or death."

This is a known conclusion, everyone nodded again and again, Hua Ji continued: "Then, it's still the question just now, these people are not even interested in finding the surviving flower girl, so as not to be blamed in the future, this is not a The logic of the guys in the trick shop. Since they dare to react like this, it can only show that Master Sun doesn’t care, at least compared to reporting the letter, he doesn’t care about what’s in front of him.”

In this way, Hua Ji's logic became very clear, and Tang Mingyi went deeper to ask: "So what they care about is a business that can provide them with far more benefits than these flower girls, and they should not be easily shown?"

Hua Ji stretched out his finger, and pointed at Tang Mingyi: "Young Master Tang, this is the key point. You have never been to a trick shop, have you?"

"It's true that I've never been there before." Tang Mingyi returned sincerely.

Hua Ji smacked his lips, and said: "Mr. Tang, do you know how much money can such a place and such a flower girl pass in a day?"

Tang Mingyi was used to him asking questions like this, so he just shook his head and didn't answer.

Hua Ji also went back on his own and said: "Let's put it this way, this kind of theater named after Taiwan is not open during the day, and it is often closed before the night ban. It's only less than five hours. , as little as ten taels, as many as dozens or even hundreds of taels. Ordinary people may not dare to come here if they don’t eat or drink for two months.”

After Hua Ji finished speaking, before Tang Mingyi could react, Wen Liang spoke first: "Mr. Hua knows this very well."

Hua Ji was taken aback for a moment, then smiled awkwardly, feeling a little guilty: "I don't come here often, but I have heard of it a lot when I hang out in the wine shop."

Wen Liang showed no extra expressions, and just said: "Let's go on, let's listen."

Hua Ji cleared his throat, and continued: "In this money, Hua Niang can only get [-] to [-]% at most, and there are many deductions for various reasons, and the rest belongs to the owner of this trick shop. It is said that Hua Niang gave them money. , compared to ordinary livelihoods, that’s a lot.”

Tang Mingyi has a good idea of ​​money, and when he heard this amount, he thought it was quite extravagant. It was only in the remote city of Tongcheng. If he was in Lianzhou, he might not be able to double it.Then I thought that the 300 taels I spent when I entered the city were enough to waste money and spend less than three times here. There are indeed many, but..."

"But what does this have to do with what's going on right now?" Hua Ji smiled again, took the lead and continued, "Mr. Tang, think about it, this flower girl didn't come here out of nothing, the grandson's family wants to spend money Right? The daily manners and conversations can’t be done overnight, right? Not to mention the knowledge. These all need to spend money and time to teach them carefully, even the rouge and gouache they use are also high-quality goods. The Sun family is on top of this That’s a lot of money.”

Tang Mingyi next to him didn't know, but when he was investigating just now, he saw some rouge and gouache in the building, and as Hua Ji said, almost none of the boxes were less than one tael of silver.

"Thinking about it in this way, even if the Sun family has some important secrets, even if the secrets involve some bigger business, how big is the business so that the costs here can be ignored? Don't forget, Mr. Sun is a villain, and the life of his servant is not important to him."

When Hua Ji mentioned this, Wen Liang and Tang Mingyi finally understood, but no one had to say it, Hua Ji came to his own conclusion: "So, this Xinghua Terrace should not be related to business, but our Tonghua Terrace. Master Chengsun's life"
