Great Qing Dynasty talker

Chapter 11: Sworn Worship, Dances with Wolves

In just a few breaths, three nurses fell down.

The body slid down the stairs.

The brave man who is not afraid of death has lost his mask.

His whole body was dripping with blood, and he was stabbing numbly.

The martial arts teacher from the nursing home of Pan Mansion arrived, a former criminal thief.

Without saying a word, he raised his crossbow and fired an arrow.

Poof, the short steel arrow pierced the man's heart.

……

When Master Pan arrived, blood was slowly flowing down the stairs.

Pan Wu, who was walking downstairs on blood, was so frightened that his eyes were straight.

"Someone, help the young master to rest."

"Master Fu, Brother Li, I am here to apologize to you two. I didn't expect that there would be a thief coveting my Pan Mansion. I will retaliate in kind when I find out the truth."

Pan Daxin, who has been in charge of the family business for thirty years, is really angry.

He was always the one who paid to kill others, but he didn't expect that he would be tricked as well.

It was only at this time that Fucheng felt severe pain in his wrist.

I was so involved in pushing the table that I sprained it.

The Pan Mansion has its own medical girl and has invited well-known doctors in the city, so this injury is not a problem.

……

Pan's living room.

Pan Daxin has been observing Li Yu, and the martial arts teacher stands behind him.

"Brother Li, thank you for your wit, otherwise I wouldn't dare think of the consequences."

"Mr. Pan, you're too polite. I'm just scared."

"It's a pity that the assassin is dead and we can't find out who ordered it."

"Of course I have a grudge against your Pan family."

A big black pot has been placed on the Pan family.

"Why did Little Brother Li conclude that he is the enemy of my Pan family? Instead of you or Mr. Fu's enemy?"

"If you want to kill me, just kill me on the street. There is no need to sneak into Pan's house. Besides, Mr. Fu died in your house. His father can wash away your house with blood. Do you believe it?"

Pan Daxin was speechless and felt chest tightness.

It sounds reasonable, but I always feel like something is wrong.

In the end, the Pan family gave each of them a jade Ruyi as an apology.

There is no reason not to accept what is delivered to your door.

Pan's carriage sent the two of them out of the gate.

"Let's become sworn brothers," Fucheng suddenly suggested with a serious expression. After the test of life and death, the friendship seemed to have sublimated.

"This……"

"Stop doing this and that, go to Shuyu Tower, cut off chicken heads and burn yellow paper, and become brothers of the opposite sex."

Shuyu Tower.

Mother Liu, under the power, could only silently clear a place for this second-generation official to show off his nerves.

More than a dozen beautiful ladies lined up on both sides to witness the miraculous moment.

The table, red candles, wine, and yellow paper are all ready-made, just...

"Where's the chicken head?" Fucheng suddenly got mad, "Are you fooling me with a chicken head carved from carrots?"

"Master Fu, please calm down. There are no chicken heads in the kitchen at this time."

Fucheng said sadly:
"I see, there are a lot of chicken heads in this house. Just chop off any of them and you won't fool God."

……

An unknown writer once said:
The highest form of friendship between a man and a woman is playing poker.

The highest form of friendship between men is to be brothers, not to be each other's fathers.

After becoming sworn friends, the two of them talked much more casually.

For Li Yu, a second-generation official from the Eight Banners was a good talisman.

Otherwise, the government would have come to extort money and money.

His career is still very weak and needs some strong protection.

Shuyu Tower and Fuyu Tower are sister buildings.

The two buildings are separated by a Shantang River.

It belongs to the same person, but the proprietor is very mysterious and has never been seen before.

Some people say it was a businessman from the Thirteenth Bank of Guangdong, while others say it was opened by a Yangzhou salt merchant.

……

"I heard that you bought a piece of land near Shihu and are building a house?"

"Yes, I still have more than 2000 taels of silver in the hall. I guess it won't be enough to throw it all in." "Why don't you come out and set up a new hall, and we can do big business together."

"What business? Legal or illegal?"

“Is anyone still doing legitimate business these days?”

"..."

Li Yu hesitated for a moment and asked him to think about it for a while.

Even if you leave Cunju Hall and set up your own hall, you must make good preparations and do not hurt your loyalty.

There is another secret reason, he doesn't want to get too involved with Fucheng.

No matter how much of a bastard Fucheng is, Manren's blood is still flowing in his veins.

When doing business together, many things cannot be hidden from his eyes.

If one day he finds out, he turns out to be the number one rebel in the Qing Dynasty, secretly amassing dead soldiers and building guns.

Will he immediately tell Qianlong secretly and send an army to encircle and suppress him?

Li Yu feels that this probability is very high!
I passed among the flowers, and the powder did not stick to my clothes.

In the evening, Li Yucai left Shuyu Tower.

He did not rush back to Cunju Hall, but entered a large blacksmith shop.

A dozen blacksmiths with exploding muscles were hammering away.

"Master, what do you want to see? I am the shopkeeper."

"Knife, a good knife for beginners, don't be too flashy."

"You've come to the right place, wait a moment."

The shopkeeper took out a semi-finished knife blank, the handle and sword grid were not yet installed.

"You try this."

Li Yu took it and weighed it, very satisfied.

The center of gravity is far back, making it easy to swing as the arm points.

……

"The oxtail knife is suitable for novices. It is light, easy on the wrist, and powerful enough." The shopkeeper introduced with a smile.

"Okay, send me to Changmen Cunju Hall tomorrow."

On the way, Li Yu couldn't help but sigh.

When can we use our hands to produce muskets and artillery, that will be the real confidence.

The entire set of machine tools rewarded by the system has long been yours.

But there has never been enough room or manpower to put it into use.

"Come on, come on."

Everyone in the hall was shocked when they heard about the assassination.

The crow almost smashed the table again and shouted to find out the man. The white knife went in and the red knife came out.

Lin Huaisheng said a rare word: "Military advisor, I will follow you as a bodyguard from now on."

Lei Huaisheng also agreed with this arrangement and found a short knife for Lin Huaisheng to make it easier to carry.

Those Yan Ling knives bought from the black market are not suitable for taking out, they are too ostentatious.

Walking in the city, it would be difficult for the government officials to be blind.

"You said that assassin mentioned the Dong family?" Lei Hu jumped up.

"Yes, but I don't really believe it."

The two fell into silence, which was really hard to guess.

The assassin was a strange face, one I had never seen before.

As for enemies, there are too many.

Recently, there are Dong Family, Fan Family, and Qingmu Hall.

I can't even count them if I'm far away. People who work in the beating business always have enemies, and I can't even remember how many people I've beaten.

"Ayu, you must be careful when you go out in the future. Always bring a guard with you wherever you go. After all, you are a scholar. Cunjutang cannot live without you."

……

My sister-in-law also came, knocking on the door as before.

With flaming red lips, she walks like willows in the wind.

In addition to expressing concern, she also asked a question that embarrassed Li Yu.

"Ayu, you are still young and don't understand. You can't always go to places like that."

"But I just accompany Fucheng and never take action."

"You accidentally went astray when making friends."

"You must cherish your bones and muscles when you are young, otherwise you will get married..."

Suddenly, Raven felt that she had said too much and kept silent.

The atmosphere became a little awkward, and silence was Maple Bridge tonight.
