Chapter 885 Xu Zhongyi exposed

Gusu, Xu Ji Pawn Shop.

A plate of fried peanuts was placed in front of Xu Zhongyi.

On weekdays, his greatest enjoyment is a sip of wine with just a few peanuts.

But on this day, the peanuts were tasteless.

"It's really bad luck!"

Xu Zhongyi said and threw the peanuts in his hand on the plate.

Today was the day he and Zeng Shu met.

The reason why he was able to complete the task last time was thanks to Tao Dachun's help.

This time he was on a mission alone, and he wasn't sure at all.

"Dude!"

At around one o'clock at noon, Zeng Shu took Liu Erbao to Xu Ji Pawn Shop.

Xu Zhongyi was startled when he heard Zeng Shu's voice.

He took a deep breath and tried to keep himself as calm as possible.

"Shopkeeper, Boss Zeng is here!"

While talking, Zeng Shu and Liu Erbao walked in.

After meeting and exchanging pleasantries, Xu Zhongyi let out a long sigh.

"Shopkeeper Xu, what's going on?"

"Sighing long and short is not your character!"

With Liu Erbao present, Zeng Shu naturally had to cooperate with Xu Zhongyi in acting.

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Zhongyi waved his hand.

"Boss Zeng, don't mention it, we've lost a lot of money in the past two days!"

Xu Zhongyi poured out his bitterness.

Then, he took the opportunity to say, "Boss Zeng, you are an expert at first sight."

"I have collected all the things in the past two days, so I have to ask you to give me a hand."

"If I continue to pay like this, I will have to pawn my family property!"

With that said, Xu Zhongyi asked the waiter to bring tea and water to Liu Erbao.

He carried Liu Erbao on his back and winked at Zeng Shu.

After the two arrived at the warehouse, Xu Zhongyi immediately gave Zeng Shu a task.

"I'm here to find you this time. There's something I want you to find out."

"what's up?"

"There are a large number of counterfeit coins on the market now, which makes the authorities very troublesome."

"The boss wants you to secretly investigate the enemy's money printing factory and try to destroy it in one fell swoop!"

Hearing the news, Zeng Shu frowned.

He was a victim of counterfeit money. His last fortune was lost because of Liang Zhongchun's confiscation of counterfeit money.

"This matter will take a while, I can only try my best to check it out!"

Having said this, Zeng Shu put forward his own idea.

He looked at Xu Zhongyi, "Now the inside of No. 76 is too closely watched. I'm worried that they will be discovered over time."

"If possible, I would like to get out as soon as possible."

Regarding Zeng Shu's words, Xu Zhongyi did not just say a few perfunctory words.

After a brief exchange, the two walked out of the warehouse.

"Boss Xu, although you made a mistake this time, the bronze wine bottle looks like an old object at first glance."

"If it sells for a good price, there will definitely be no problem in keeping the principal!"

Hearing Zeng Shu's words, Liu Erbao smiled and said nothing.

In his opinion, Xu Zhongyi is their cash cow!

"I feel relieved if I have Boss Zeng!"

"If those things are all fake, I'll really have to pay to my death."

After Xu Zhongyi finished speaking, Zeng Shu immediately took out the treasure he had brought this time.

A snuff bottle from the mid-Qing Dynasty.

"Shopkeeper Xu, I received this snuff bottle. It cost me 500 yuan."

"The world value should be three thousand."

"Originally I planned to pawn it, but you lost so much this time, how about I sell it to you for 800 yuan?"

With that said, Zeng Shu handed over a jade snuff bottle.

After Xu Zhongyi observed it carefully, he looked like he couldn't put it down.

"Boss Zeng still has a high vision!"

"You take such good care of my business, and I'm determined to be your friend!"

Liu Erbao looked at the two of them from the side.

Zeng Shu didn't spend any money on this snuff bottle. It was a gift from a businessman who had some connections. "Director, why didn't you kill him severely this time?"

After leaving Xu Ji's pawn shop, Liu Erbao asked curiously.

On the way here, Zeng Shuke said that he could sell it for at least 500 yuan.

"Business needs to last a long time. Xu Zhong's store still has some treasures."

"We have to keep him and kill him slowly!"

"Although the price is slightly discounted, what do we have to worry about in this business without capital?"

Liu Erbao nodded.

Without saying a word, he drove directly towards Xiuhongyuan.

"Director, look, they are coming out!"

Just when Zeng Shu left, Wu Zhiguo was already leading people in the hotel opposite to see clearly.

There was a sneer on the corner of his mouth.

"It looks like they are going to Xiuhongyuan!"

Wu Zhiguo turned his head and glanced at his subordinates.

He asked calmly, "Have you figured out the situation in Xiuhongyuan?"

"Director, several brothers have already investigated everything."

"I really didn't find anything suspicious!"

Wu Zhiguo did not believe this easily.

He frowned, "You're not just going to visit the brothel, are you?"

"No, absolutely not!"

"We checked inside and out and found nothing unusual."

Wu Zhiguo nodded.

He immediately said, "If this Xu Ji's Pawn Shop is indeed the stronghold of the military commander, they will definitely take action after Zeng Shu comes."

"Keep an eye on me!"

About an hour later, a clerk came out of Xu Ji's pawn shop.

Wu Zhiguo saw this and followed him personally.

In his opinion, as long as it can be confirmed that Xu Ji's Pawn Shop is the stronghold of military command, Zeng Shu's death will be over.

But after he followed the boy for two blocks, the boy suddenly disappeared.

"This guy is definitely not an ordinary person!"

Wu Zhiguo was shocked.

If it weren't for a well-trained agent, it would be impossible for ordinary people to get rid of him.

"It seems like Zeng Shuguo really has a problem!"

Without evidence, Wu Zhiguo is still not sure that Zeng Shu has rebelled.

During the safe period, he simply gave up tracking.

"Director, what should we do now?"

Wu Zhiguo looked at Xu Ji's pawn shop, a smile flashed in his eyes.

He waved his hand, "Leave three brothers here to guard, and the rest will withdraw immediately!"

"Tell them that as long as Xu Ji's Pawn Shop doesn't find anything unusual, they should never alert others."

"If it happens again and again, it will definitely happen again!"

"We need to catch Zeng Shu!"

Wu Zhiguo clenched his fist with his right hand. If he could catch it, even Takeshige Aoki would not be able to protect Zeng Shu.

Unfortunately, the situation between Zeng Shu and Wu Zhiguo was noticed by the concubines who followed them.

When he saw Xu Ji's pawn shop, he guessed everything.

But he didn't linger near Xu Ji's pawn shop.

After Zeng Shu and Liu Erbao left, he also followed them to Xiuhongyuan.

"Now, we can have an explanation for Li Shiqun!"

That night, after returning to No. 76, Gong Shu immediately found Li Shiqun.

"Concubine, where have you been today?"

"I looked for you, but they said you weren't here..."

As soon as Li Shiqun finished speaking, the concubine Gong told what he had observed.

"Director, didn't you ask me to pay attention to Wu Zhiguo and the others?"

"I have gained something today!"

Hearing this, Li Shiqun suddenly became interested.

"Wu Zhiguo and others have been secretly observing Zeng Shu's every move."

"This morning, when Zeng Shu took people to the countryside to collect the goods, he even went out in person!"

"I think this matter may not be that simple!"
