Chapter 148 One dollar, one life

At this time, the cold wind swept through the treetops.

In the complete silence, Aqian's originally lazy eyes suddenly focused. Just when I took half a step back, I felt that he was going to make a move.

Ah Qian withdrew his eyes and said without any trace:
  "Why are I killing you? I'm not stupid. I don't do stupid things."

"What do you think I'm doing? I won't forget it. Let's do this. I'll write your name on my hand right now."

Ah Chiu continued to take out the pen, but his arm was already full of words. He looked at it again and again, and finally decided to write it in his hand.

This time I was really confused. How could a money-grubbing person like Ah Chi know who I was and not take action?

I took a deep breath and went through all the clues again. An idea suddenly occurred to me, and I spoke with difficulty through my teeth:
  "Ah Chi, what's the reward for me in the Jianghu pursuit order?"

While Ah Chian was writing my name, he casually said the answer that shocked me out of my mind:

"A dollar."

"Your bounty is one dollar."

"I feel sorry for you, but it doesn't matter. If you work hard, you should be higher."

"Oh, by the way, why do you think I would kill someone for a dollar! You have to respect my qualifications as a professional killer. We also have to plan the costs when doing things."

"Think about it, although this is our palace and it is very convenient to kill people, you still have to dispose of the body after killing someone, right? It takes a lot of coal to burn a furnace of ashes. A ton of coal costs 800 yuan now. Although you are small, But why can’t it be smaller than a few dozen?”

"Besides, the business of the funeral home is very good! If you give me an hour, we can get one more order with a value ranging from a few thousand to a few thousand."

"The most important thing is-"

Ah Jian patted the curved pocket, his face still expressionless, but his tone was somewhat relaxed and comfortable:
  "You are my boss now, and you can bring me much more business than just one dollar."

"Don't worry, I really won't do anything. If someone does something to you, you can come to me. If the price is right, I can still protect you."

What this means is, if I’m not the boss and I really don’t have an order, why don’t I bite the bullet and give it a try?
  I was so shocked by all kinds of news that I thought about this sentence in my head, and then the amount of information that I didn’t realize was suddenly filled into my mind——

No wonder Liu Ajiao felt that the lies I made up were true.

The amount of the reward that even Azian would not take action after reading the fatwa looks really fake!

A 'kill order' with great origins, but with a bounty as small as child's play.

Anyone would be curious about who the reward is.
  But would anyone do it for a dollar?
  If you don’t even take action, then really no one will!

This fatwa, under my lies, really looks like an elder building momentum for his fledgling children and grandchildren, as if to say——

[Look, this is my doll. Everyone remembers this name. I appreciate it. You are all familiar with my doll. As for the price, it is random. I don’t really want to kill her. She will have to trouble everyone in the future! 】

The whole thing is right!

But does Tzu Ching Nv mean this?

I have seen her weird temperament and methods, how could she be a kind person!
  This fatwa hung above my head, and it actually gave me a posture of 'no one should do anything, let me do it'.

For me, of course the second possibility is more likely!
  My mind was in turmoil, and I took a few steps in confusion, but Ah Qian kept following me step by step. As soon as I turned around, he would not speak.

I couldn't recover for a while and asked:

"What's wrong? Why are you following me?" Ah Qian hesitated to speak:

"Ah Shi had a thousand yuan when he brought you in. Can I get a thousand yuan when I send you away?"

Silence is Cambridge tonight.

I was interrupted by him, and the chaotic thoughts in my mind just stopped, and I suddenly took out a handful of money:

"How much does it cost to ride you?"

Seeing that Ah Qian's eyes lit up and he immediately had the tendency to lie down on the ground, I quickly said:
  "Just kidding, just send me out normally and I'll pay for it!"

I really don’t have much to do against such a money-grubbing person. Ah Shi happily counted his money and led me away. After only passing a corner, I almost bumped into Ah Shi, who was poking his head in the corner.

Ah Shi's first reaction was to panic. He was helpless and gestured at the white wall to check, muttering in his mouth:

"This wall looks quite like a wall, huh"

Azian and I looked at the mottled old walls and were speechless for a moment.

Ah Shi glanced at us a few more times, then pretended to have just discovered us, and said in surprise:

"Are you coming out?"

"Ah Chi, you can't do it! How long has it been! Tsk, tsk, tsk, if you're not in good health, just let me get on the lap of my rich sister!"

"I'm still young, but I will grow up. As for you, you only deserve to sleep in the same dormitory with me for the rest of your life - ah!"

Ah Chi knocked Ah Shi on the head gently but not hard, stopping Ah Shi from continuing to speak.

This is the first time I have seen such a solemn expression on Ah Qian's face. Perhaps only when facing Ah Qian, Ah Qian behaves more like a mature and steady adult, but it is only 'like', because The next second, he tightened Ah Shi's neck and said angrily:

"Why do you need one thousand for tolls? Give me five hundred and share five hundred with me!!!"

Ah Chi almost died on the spot after being strangled by him. He took out his money bag with difficulty and tremblingly counted five hundred yuan to Ah Chi. Then Ah Chi took back his hand with satisfaction and said:
  "Okay Ah Shi! Please help me send the guests out. I came out temporarily and have to go back to find the master. By the way, I have already collected the money and can't take any more."

Ah Shi was so angry with his brother that he almost went out of his mind. After asking for his share of the traveling expenses to no avail, he angrily led me out through the twists and turns of the corridor.

Ah Shi talked a lot when he came here, and he could tell that he was also a talkative person.

But when he left, this guy was sulky and could not say a word. I looked at it and was surprised. Halfway through, I whispered:

"If you like your brother so much, you should be more frank. You can strangle him by saying that he only deserves something. In fact, you are hurting him."

Ah Chi, who was leading the way, paused in his steps. When he came to his senses, there was no anger on his face, but the same expressionless expression as Ah Chi:

"Easier said than done."

"Do you know how much trouble Ah Chi has caused me?"

"If he hadn't been my brother, I would have strangled him to death! Not to mention that he had no orders before, and I had to make money to support him!"

How else can we say that they are of the same origin?

The two brothers turned out to be a taciturn and stupid money-loving brother, and a poisonous-tongued brother-controlling younger brother.
  I said nothing and followed Ah Shi to the gate. I wanted to take a step forward, but Ah Shi said coldly behind me:
  "I don't care what you want to do, don't take my brother away."
