Zongwu: The Days of Mixing in the Tongfu Inn

Chapter 264 Take out the wallet in the blank exhibition hall
"The news spread fast enough. If I hadn't experienced it myself, I really wouldn't be able to confirm that this happened yesterday."

Xiucai said with an official newspaper.

"What does it say?"

Zhang Chen leaned on the bench and asked.

"What else can I say, the above said that Shuntian Mansion took him down, and now his two brothers are already in prison!"

Xiucai dismissively introduced that he had personally experienced this incident, and this official newspaper was full of praises for the government.

"What happened next?"

Seeing Xiucai's dismissive expression, Zhang Chen asked curiously.

After taking them down yesterday, Zhang Chengang wanted to go to Uncle Zhao Xing to surprise him, but he didn't expect Bai Zhantang to stop him.

Seeing the hesitation on Big Brother Bai's face, Zhang Chen knew that he wanted to intercede for the two brothers.

After that, Zhang Chen didn't want to talk about it anymore. After all, it would be a foolish thing to say, so Zhang Chen simply handed it over to Bai Zhantang, and he went to Shenhou Mansion to find Yayu to play with.

After he came back today, he didn't know what was written in the official newspaper when he heard the scholar read it, but it obviously didn't match the facts.

"After you left, Laobai did not know where to invite Aunt Bai, and just like that, Aunt Bai took the two of them out of the inn. I don't know what happened after that."

Xiu Cai told the truth about yesterday.

"It's really an expected result!"

Zhang Chen looked up at the roof and said to himself.

"Hey, did you sleep well yesterday morning?"

Bai Zhantang happily walked in from the door, and greeted Zhang Chen after seeing him.

"Thanks to your old man, I had a good night's sleep yesterday."

Zhang Chen gritted his voice and said.

"Hey, which one of us is with whom?"

Bai Zhantang sat next to Zhang Chen and replied with a smile.

Zhang Chen glanced at Bai Zhantang, the smile on his face hadn't stopped since he entered the door, Zhang Chen still didn't know his mood.

"Humph!!"

Zhang Chen snorted twice, ignoring Bai Zhantang.

"Hey, let me tell you, you have done my brother a big favor this time. Tell me, as long as my brother can do it, you will be satisfied."

Seeing that Zhang Chen ignored him, Bai Zhantang hurriedly said in a courteous manner.

"If you have such thoughts, you might as well think about how you will explain it when the shopkeeper comes back."

Zhang Chen looked at the messy lobby and said.

They fought in the lobby yesterday, not to mention the tables, chairs and benches in the lobby, as well as the placed flower pots and porcelain.

If the shopkeeper came back and saw this scene, I'm afraid Big Brother Bai wouldn't be able to talk here so leisurely.

"Uh?"

Bai Zhantang smiled mischievously, he was so happy to forget about it.

Zhang Chen called Brother Xiucai, and Xiucai immediately walked over with the account book and counted them one by one in front of Bai Zhantang.

A moment later, Bai Zhantang took the thin paper tremblingly.

"so much?"

Bai Zhantang glanced at the numbers on the paper, and immediately shouted.

"There's nothing wrong with it. It's 680 taels of silver in total."

The scholar said confidently that he was not so confident about other things, but settling accounts was what he was best at.

In a short period of time, Xiucai explained to Bai Zhantang one by one in concise language.

Zhang Chen looked at Bai Zhantang whose expression was getting grayer and said with a smile, "Take the money, as it happens that your small coffers should be enough."

"No!"

Bai Zhantang staggered and collapsed on the ground, that was the money he had accumulated for a long time, and he still wanted to save it to buy wine in the future.

However, Bai Zhantang's performance of playing tricks did not soften the hearts of the two. Who would let him handle the matter in the end? If it was handed over to the government, not only would he not need to take out the money himself, but he would also be able to get an unexpected house.

"Hey, what is this called?"

Xing Butou suddenly walked in from the outside, and said with a sigh as soon as he entered the door.

"What happened recently, I seem to have heard this word several times."

Zhang Chen thought to himself.

"What are you? No, didn't you and Shopkeeper Tong go to Hanzhong?"

Catcher Xing found the Baizhan Hall on the ground, and asked suspiciously.

"Hey, we're back, but if I have something to deal with, I'll go first. She probably will be back in a day or two."

Bai Zhantang got up quickly, and pretended to be nonchalant to answer Xing Butou's question.

"Hey, Lao Xing, why are you looking downcast when you come in?"

Then, Bai Zhantang changed the subject.

"When I mention this, I get angry. A few days ago, I came to remind Xiao Chen and the others to be careful of Ji Wuming. I thought that since he escaped, he would definitely come for revenge. At that time, I could catch him again. Who knew that this time he was killed by other people. Got it."

Xing Butou was full of self-confidence before, and he still wanted to get a house by arresting Ji Wuming this time, who knows that he has nothing now.

"Uh~"

Bai Zhantang was embarrassed when he heard the words, he was the one who did what Catcher Xing said, that day he brought Aunt Bai to ask his mother to help her, and Aunt Bai also helped Bai Zhantang go to the government office with a soft heart, that's how he is now kind of scene.

"Don't mention it, Xiaochen brought me two jars of good wine, I have to drink two cups to relieve myself."

Xing Butou waved his hand, then shouted at Zhang Chen.

"Come on, I finally met you to take a break recently. I'll ask Brother Big Mouth to cook some good food. Let's all have a few drinks."

Zhang Chen agreed, then got up and went directly to the back kitchen to find Dazui to start a fire. After a while, everyone gathered around the long table drinking wine and eating side dishes.

"Hey, I said Lao Bai, you still don't go back to pick up the shopkeeper! Don't you worry that the shopkeeper is alone outside?"

After drinking a glass of wine, he suddenly remembered this matter and asked.

"Don't worry, don't worry, she didn't come back alone this time, she also accompanied the escort from the capital, otherwise I wouldn't dare to come back by myself."

Bai Zhantang explained aloud.

"I said."

Dazui laughed, and then replied.

"Then you have to hurry up. There is not much time left for you. If you are far away, if Miss Guo comes back and sees the situation, will you have a chat with the shopkeeper?"

Zhang Chen pointedly said.

"You guys are too ruthless, can you have less, I have to keep some private money too!"

Bai Zhantang spoke viciously at first, but when he saw that everyone was unmoved, he begged pitifully.

"What are you talking about?"

Xing Butou on the side was puzzled.

"Good thing, Lao Bai wants to replace all the furnishings in the inn with new ones, and he doesn't want to let people outside misunderstand that he is a softie."

Xiucai found a reason for Bai Zhantang to be tall.

"Good job!"

Xing Tutou, who didn't know the inside story, gave a thumbs up.

"It should be, it should be."

He was put on top by Xiucai and the others, and when he remembered that he had lost all his money, Bai Zhantang still replied with a bitter face.

　Thanks for the support!
