you're just a player

Chapter 56
He was also embarrassed to make Shen Fei embarrass these poor ordinary people here, and he secretly breathed out, and the spiritual power in his body rushed to the [Light Spirit Boots] under his feet, activated the active skill, and the movement speed increased instantly.

Enough playing, it's time to go, and ran farther and farther into the city without looking back, gradually out of sight of the yamen servants.

Finding an unoccupied alley, Shen Fei jumped off the roof and put away his hood. After looking around, he mixed into the crowd.

With Shen Fei's foot strength, it only took a moment to reach the Escort Street, and he was not in a hurry to return. He found a tea stall nearby and sat down, greeted the boss for a bowl of tea, and took a rest on his own.

The location of this place is excellent, but anyone who enters and exits the Escort Street cannot escape the observation of this tea stall.

Shen Fei didn't make Shen Fei wait for a long time, a familiar figure entered a certain escort agency with his head poking around, Shen Fei wrote down the name of that escort agency, and then got up to return to Xingyuan escort agency.

He had just raised his butt when a voice suddenly came: "Guest officer, you haven't paid me yet."

Shen Fei turned his head in embarrassment, took out the broken silver that he begged from the magician in his arms, handed it to the boss, and said: "Sorry boss, I forgot, I didn't sincerely rely on you."

The boss was easy to talk to, took the broken money, and replied with a simple and honest smile: "It's okay, there are often guest officers who look like you, and then forget to pay and leave."

Hearing this sentence, Shen Fei's heart moved secretly, and he asked casually: "Are there many people who follow like me?" While speaking, he was still staring at the expression of the tea stall owner.

But the owner of the tea stall replied with a simple smile: "Old man, I don't know what stalking is. Maybe the scenery over there is better, and the guests are distracted."

Without giving Shen Fei a chance to question, the tea stall owner put away the tea bowl and went to work elsewhere.

Shen Fei took a deep look at him, thinking about the location of this tea stand, it can be described as an excellent place to follow, smiled and shook his head, and left.

When he returned to Xingyuan Escort, Escort Wang was already waiting for him in the lobby.

At this time, he greeted Shen Fei, and said with a friendly smile: "Chen confessed, let's go together for tonight's bodyguard, what weapon do you use well? And go to the martial arts hall to get a handy one."

Shen Fei understood that Chen Jin should have arranged for Wang Escort to bring him, the newcomer, otherwise the mere task of escorting Kuding would not require the only escort in the bureau, a few veteran escorts would be enough.

It was obvious that Shen Fei was to be trained on the backbone, which was also inevitable. Naturally, Chen Jin would not waste such a good seedling.

Shen Fei chose a lancet of acceptable quality in the Martial Arts Hall and hung it on his waist.

For those who have not practiced weapon warfare, it is best to use a spear or a knife.The lancet is named for its shape like a willow leaf, and it was a relatively common knife in the Qing Dynasty.

The two greeted a few brothers, and then set out on the road. Along the way, Escort Wang was introducing to Shen Fei the local customs, the power of local snakes, and friendship with some green forest heroes. The reality of flying.

Shen Fei's mind was also spinning quickly, and he answered as tight as possible.The rest of the bodyguards in the team also knew how to read words and expressions, and whenever they needed to speak up, they would chime in a few words, laughing and laughing along the way.

During the conversation among the people, Shen Fei also found out what kind of family Qian Yuan's family was, which was the place where the magician performed the task.

Since his father's generation, the family has been in business, but it can only be considered a well-off family. Although it was very rare to be well-off in that era, it was far from being rich.

But when Qian Yuanwai was in charge, everything was different.

In addition to Yuan Qian, some people also call him Master Qian, whose real name is Qian Tong.

He abandoned his father's small business, sold the valuables at home, and took a lot of money to curry favor with a local salt merchant, thinking of him as his godfather, and followed him in the salt business.

With his shrewd ability and good operation skills, he helped his godfather of salt merchants in three years, and won the salt markets of several cities one after another, winning the trust of his godfather of salt merchants.

Then one year later, the salt merchant's godfather died of illness suddenly, and he took over the godfather's business forcefully.

With the help of his godfather's relationship network during his lifetime, he expanded his business bigger and bigger, and gradually involved in the food business. He also used the money he earned from selling salt to invest in the cotton spinning industry, opened a grocery store, and sold the common people's food. The degree of wear is almost all.

Moreover, during the business period, many scholars and Jinshi from various places were supported. Some of these people later became officials in the court, and some were in power.

Moreover, Qian Tong did not hesitate to make friends with heroes from all walks of life, many well-known martial arts masters were the guests of Master Qian.

Although Qian Yuanwai lives in Ningcheng, as long as he opens his mouth, his voice can be heard in several cities around him, even up to heaven.

Shen Fei asked curiously, with such a powerful person, why would he issue a mission to an escort agency like Xingyuan? Although Xingyuan is not small, even in Ningcheng, it is at most a middle-upper class, not to mention that there are some big chains across the country. Dart line.

After hearing this, Escort Wang laughed and said: "There is only our Xingyuan family, Mr. Qian is naturally not small in his work, and all the Escorts in Ningcheng, big and small, have experts there, even in the capital there are big Escorts. "

After Shen Fei heard it, he kept it in his heart, and at the same time, there was a worry in his heart, Qian Yuan's family is so powerful, why hire an escort agency to guard the house?

Besides, it would be fine if he was hired all year round, which shows that Mr. Qian pays attention to security, and now he only hires for half a month, so there is some knowledge in it.

Suppress the doubts in my heart first, the Kudings they are going to escort are off work, and as a bodyguard, Shen Fei will also start working.

Speaking of protecting Kuding, it is an interesting job. Strictly speaking, it can be regarded as a kind of personal dart, but it does not need to travel through mountains and rivers. It can simply escort them to and from work, so some people count it as an extra small job. Inside, it is not counted as walking darts.

Kuding is a small worker who smelts silver in the silver treasury. He has neither power nor status, but there are many people rushing to do it. The reason is that this job can get some ill-gotten gains.

From the Yongzheng period, the tax money collected by the Qing government was all cash, and the bosses did not earn much, so what was handed over was scrap money.

Officials from all over the country took advantage of this and reported to the imperial court that broken silver was not easy to count and store.Simply melt it into a unified standard, a whole ingot of silver, which is called official silver.

As soon as the emperor heard it was reasonable, he would play it.

Since then, all localities have been corrupted from the link of melting and casting official silver, because there will always be losses when melting and casting silver. Ten taels of silver, if you are more conscientious, nine taels will be cast, and if you are greedy, you will increase the loss. With one layer deducted, it would be good to have seven or eight taels.

As for the small workers who melt and cast silver, although they shouldn't be as blatant as the upper-level officials, they can more or less get some.

Stealing a little every time I get off work, and adding up and down, the extra income I can get every year is not a small amount.
