Help!My goddess is sick

Chapter 258 The Man Behind
Shopkeeper Wen opened his mouth slightly, and didn't answer immediately, but squatted down, picked up a gemstone and looked it up to the light. It was a crystal clear sapphire, shining coldly under the light, without any impurities. Good materials, if polished and made into jewelry, can be sold at extremely high prices, even more expensive than a mermaid.

He put this down, and picked up a piece of jade. The water head is excellent, the texture is excellent, and it belongs to the kind that has a price but no market.

Shopkeeper Wen: "..."

He was silent for a while and said, "Who is this Young Master?"

Zhu Yi smiled and took the gemstone back, and said quite arrogantly: "It's just a hermit family, it's not worth mentioning. We have planned to re-enter the world these years, so we sent our children out to practice. I heard that the business of Yurenfang is booming. , thinking of cooperating with your boss, expanding the business, and going to other countries, so that I can go back and do business, and your boss will definitely be willing."

Shopkeeper Wen didn't object this time. He looked at Zhuyi carefully for a while, and then looked at Lan Jiu who was behind Zhuyi. Such an appearance and demeanor really didn't look like something that could be raised in a small place.

But he still hesitated.

Lan Jiu was a little impatient: "Didn't you say that there is a master here? Then let's meet here. Is your master afraid that the master can't beat us?"

This is a joke, shopkeeper Wen smiled lightly: "Okay, if that's the case, then I'll go and send a message to my master, but...it's getting late today, the master must have rested, why don't you two go to an inn first Settle down, if master agrees to meet you two tomorrow, I will send someone to send you a message."

Lan Jiu was not very satisfied, but there was no rush right now. They could have lifted the Yurenfang directly and rescued the Yuren, but if the people behind it were not found out, who knew if they would make a comeback in the future?

Capture the thief first and capture the king first, so you have to teach them a lesson, so that they will never dare to attack the mermaid again.

She looked at Zhuyi, "Then shall we go back first?"

Seeing that she was still able to think calmly, Zhu Yi was quite relieved, nodded, and then said to the shopkeeper: "I saw an inn to the east of Yurenfang, so I will go there and stay there. If you have any news, come to me and wait for the good news." .”

After speaking, he turned around and took Lan Jiu away, "Let's go."

Shopkeeper Wen watched them leave: "Walk slowly—"

After the person left, he straightened up, his eyes gradually sank, after thinking for a long time, he still went to send a letter to someone.

……

There is indeed an inn next to Yurenfang, which is quite big. When Zhuyi and Lan Jiu went there, it was not fully occupied, there were just two rooms left, but Zhuyi only needed one.

Lan Jiu didn't object either, ignoring Xiao Er's ambiguous eyes, the two of them entered the room and closed the door, and the atmosphere became serious.

"Who do you think is behind Yurenfang? It's so mysterious..." Lan Jiu was thoughtful.

Zhu Yi tapped her fingertips on the table, "It's probably related to the royal family."

"How to say?" Lan Jiu poured a cup of tea for each of them.

Zhu Yi took the teacup, took a sip and said, "Yerrenfang's level of making money is not comparable to that of ordinary shops. Will the royal family let such a big piece of fat fall into the mouths of others?"

"Too."

"What's more, even if it's not the royal family, it must be related to the royal family. Otherwise, ordinary high-ranking officials may not be able to protect Yurenfang."

Zhu Yi's eyes were deep, "There are still Lingwangs in command, and there are only a handful of Lingwangs, but it's strange for Yurenfang to sit in command. If the royal family ordered it, it might be possible."

"Then if we take action against Yurenfang, it's hard for the royal family to explain, will there be any trouble?"

Lan Jiu looked at Zhuyi worriedly.

Zhu Yi raised his eyebrows: "Are you afraid?"

Lan Jiu shook her head honestly: "I'm not afraid, but I'm afraid of causing trouble for Chasing Yunzong."

"There is no need to worry about this. I will reveal my identity as the Dragon Prince of the South China Sea. The Yuren belong to the management of the South China Sea. If I come forward, the royal family can't say anything, let alone their fault first?"

Hearing what he said, Lan Jiu was completely relieved, "It's good that I don't involve other people. I have nothing to fear. They do such disgusting things, and I won't let them go!"

She clenched her fists tightly, and the hatred in her heart surged, "Refining medicine, thanks to them thinking of it!"

Zhuyi sighed, grabbed her wrist and put it in front of him, opened her hand little by little, inserted his five fingers in and clasped her tightly.

"You are still soft-hearted. You really can't sit idly by when you see the sharks in distress."

Zhuyi smiled and stroked her hair with the other hand.

Lan Jiu didn't deny it.

Zhu Yi didn't say any more, "I released enough bait today, let's see if they will take the bait tomorrow. Now, it's time to sleep."

Lan Jiu took a look, and gradually calmed down: "Yes."

……

There was nothing to say all night, the next day, Lan Jiu and Zhu Yi woke up early, they went back to the room after eating, looked out through the window, until noon, there was no movement from Yurenfang.

Lan Jiu was standing by the window, and suddenly saw an acquaintance coming out of Yurenfang—it was the boy who led them in last night. He looked around furtively as soon as he went out, and then came straight to the inn.

Lan Jiu narrowed his eyes, "Here we come."

Zhu Yi was meditating. Hearing this, he opened his eyes and smiled slightly: "Greed is the nature of businessmen. They will definitely not be indifferent when they see so much money."

Lan Jiu thinks so.

She turned around and waited by the window. About half an hour later, someone knocked on the door.

Lan Jiu raised her hand and opened the door with Lingli, and the clerk immediately showed a flattering smile, "Did the two distinguished guests sleep well last night?"

Zhu Yi got up from the bed, got out of bed and took a sip of water: "Well, it's okay, your master asked you to deliver the letter?"

The man closed the door with his backhand, and said with a smile, "That's right!"

He glanced at Lan Jiu by the window and said: "The shopkeeper Wen sent a letter to the master last night. The master was very happy when he heard about the young master and the young lady. Today, he came to Yurenfang in person and was waiting on the third floor. What about you two, is it convenient for you two to take a trip with the younger one now?"

"Naturally, it's convenient. Your master took time out of his busy schedule to come here. How can we make him wait so long? Let's go."

Lan Jiu said something with a smile on her face, and then walked over, Zhu Yi followed her, helped her tidy her hair, and said to the man, "Lead the way."

"Oh oh oh, good."

The clerk somehow felt that Lan Jiu was not in a good mood today and was a bit creepy, but he couldn't tell what was wrong, so he could only walk out awkwardly.

The third floor of Yurenfang is usually not open to the public, only insiders can go up to the third floor, today is an exception.

Lan Jiu and Zhuyi followed the waiter up to the third floor. When they reached the stairs, the waiter dared not go any further, saying that the master was in the innermost room and let them go by themselves.
