After rebirth, I became the richest man in the capital

Chapter 199 What a pity, it can't be sold!

Chapter 199 What a pity, it can't be sold!

His words caused a moderate laughter, which attracted everyone's attention.

The man's laughter was very strange, it sounded like he was laughing, but it made people feel uncomfortable, and he felt cold for no reason.

It was the man sitting at the front with a folding fan in his hand.

The man unfolded the folding fan, his posture seemed to be very relaxed, and he said leisurely: "What identity?"

It seemed to be asking rhetorically, and then he asked himself and answered: "Senior officials' salaries, imperial envoys!"

As soon as he said this, there was an uproar, and everyone's expressions changed drastically, and some even sat up in shock.

"What? Imperial envoy?"

Meng Liangchen and the others upstairs didn't know how to describe the expressions on their faces. They stared closely at the lifeless man in the cage at this moment, and tightened their grip on the railing.

Just as the crowd was making noise, the sound of a gong came again.

"Everyone is objective and quiet!"

The restaurant slowly fell silent, and the man sitting in the front row spoke again at this time.

"Two bids of 100."

100 taels? !
Almost everyone was surprised, not to mention the price, but the identity of the person inside, who would dare to shoot it?
For a while, no one dared to take pictures, and Lian Yi, who was standing upstairs, was so excited that she wanted to bid, but Wei Zhe, who was behind her, covered her mouth.

"cannot!"

Lianyi turned her head and stared at him puzzled, and anxiously asked through his hand, "Why!"

Wei Zhe leaned into her ear and said, "This is just a test."

After a long time, no one asked for the price. The man sitting in front sighed and said, "Hey! It's a pity that it can't be sold! That's all!"

After speaking, he stood up, put away the folding fan, and said, "Let's end it."

The man raised his feet and walked towards the second floor, and finally disappeared around a corner.

Mu Ze looked at the man's back with condensed eyes, thoughtful.

After everyone dispersed, the cage was pushed down, and Meng Liangchen and the others returned to the room.

None of them spoke. Tian Yu searched around the house, and nodded to Mu Ze after confirming that no one was eavesdropping on the partition wall.

"Master, it's safe for now."

Lianyi couldn't bear it anymore at this time, wanted to speak loudly, but was worried that the voice would be too loud to attract the attention of others, so she suppressed her voice to keep it down.

"It's really too much! The imperial envoy sent by the emperor himself was treated like this by them! It's so audacious! There is no kingly law!"

She still seemed to be puzzled, and thumped the table bitterly: "Damn it! You should be exterminated! You should be ransacked!"

Although the others didn't speak, their expressions were not good-looking.

Mu Ze speculated that the imperial envoy who was dispatched was probably controlled by the local forces shortly after arriving here, and the notes received at the beginning, and the notes received intermittently later, were probably not from the imperial envoy himself.

Lianyi finished venting her anger at this time, and said with some concern: "Will he be..."

Wei Zhe replied thoughtfully, "Not yet."

After all, it was an imperial envoy sent by the imperial court, and he died suddenly in less than a year. There is no way to justify it, unless they concealed the death and did not report it.

The situation of the imperial envoy is very dangerous. If the rescue is not done as soon as possible, I am afraid that there will only be a dead end.

But... is the man in the cage really the imperial envoy sent by the court?Or was it just released by the other party to confuse everyone and use it as a bait to lure out the suspects among those who came?
But no matter what, you can't let it go.

Just as everyone was discussing how to rescue them, there was a sudden knock on the door.Tian Yu's expression turned cold, and he was relatively close to the door, so he asked in a low voice.

"Who?"

"It's me, Brother Zhang!"

Boss Zhang's voice came from outside the door. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and gave Tian Yu a look before Tian Yu opened the door.

As soon as Boss Zhang stepped in, he was stunned to find that there were so many people in the room.

After Tian Yu closed the door behind him, he saw Meng Liangchen who was sitting on the table greeting him, and he came back to his senses.

"Brother Zhang? Come and sit!"

Boss Zhang walked over with a nervous expression, and he was relieved after seeing that Cheng Yuan was not in the house.

After bluffing one by one, he sat opposite Meng Liangchen.

"I'm leaving tomorrow, so I'll come over to say hello to you tonight."

Meng Liangchen nodded and said, "Do you want to leave early tomorrow morning?"

Boss Zhang responded, and said, "Yes, I'm leaving in the morning. I always feel that this place is very evil, and it's not safe to stay here."

There was a bit of worry on his face, Mu Ze glanced at him and said, "Are you going by water?"

Boss Zhang didn't expect Mu Ze to talk to him, so he nodded in surprise and sighed: "It's faster to go by water, and the inland salt is really in short supply. I'm going to distribute the salt to the people in Liangzhou when I go back." , and I don’t want to make money, just keep my capital.”

Mu Ze said: "At that time, I will send a few people to protect you and go back together."

Boss Zhang was both surprised and pleasantly surprised. After realizing it, he immediately got up and bowed to Mu Ze. Although he also brought people with him, he felt more at ease if he could have a few more escorts.

"Then thank you, my dear friend!"

He had never met Mu Ze before, so naturally he didn't know who Mu Ze was. The last time he went to Liangzhou, he didn't see Mu Ze himself for some reason.

After thanking him, Meng Liangchen thought of something, and asked, "Brother Zhang, you said you have been here for more than half a month?"

Boss Zhang's face was obviously relaxed, he nodded, and replied: "Yes, I have been living here to occupy the quota."

The look in Meng Liangchen's eyes flickered, and he asked: "Then the man with the folding fan in the first row downstairs today, do you know who it is?"

Boss Zhang thought for a while and said, "He has appeared in the building once or twice, and I heard that he is the master behind the restaurant."

Meng Liangchen continued to ask: "Is there no other identity?"

Boss Zhang had a strange look on his face. He leaned slightly, half lying on the table and whispered, "It seems to be someone from the magistrate here."

There was a flash of surprise in everyone's eyes.

It must be a person with a strong background, otherwise he would not dare to do so.

Boss Zhang sighed a little: "Even the imperial envoys of the imperial court dare to treat him like this. He really deserves to be the one who dares to monopolize the entire salt chain."

Everyone already has a number in their hearts.

The person in the cage is most likely the imperial envoy himself.The man with the folding fan in his hand looked very conceited, and he didn't even bother to pretend to be someone else.

Really hateful!
Boss Zhang sighed, looked at Meng Liangchu, suddenly seemed to think of something, and was startled.

The princess... the prince!Princess! !

"You, you didn't come here for this matter, did you?"

Seeing the calm expressions of several people, Boss Zhang finally realized it! !
