Chapter 747
"Did the Heavenly Prison roof collapse? Oh, the old man heard someone mention it a few days ago, saying that the Six Shanmen agents are investigating this case. Chen Jiang Yucheng, don't make it difficult for the old man. If it's a case that even the Six Shanmen can't investigate, how could the old man have the ability to know the news earlier than the Six Shanmen."
Old Chaofeng made an expression of having nothing to say, and really having no news about this case in his hands. He picked up the teacup and intended to send the guest away.
Chen Guanlou raised his hand to press the teacup in the other party's hand, "Old Chaofeng, don't joke with me! This is a big matter, a big matter directly related to me. You want to dismiss me with just one 'I don't know'; do you think it's possible? Today, if you want to dismiss me, you have to give something real."
"Chen Jiang Yucheng, you are not right. Business deals, how can you force buy and force sell. The old man really doesn't know; I can't just make up lies to deceive you."
"If you can really make up a few pieces of news, I'll accept it!"
Chen Guanlou's attitude was firm.
Coming to the gambling house today, he didn't intend to leave empty-handed.
This place is a treasure land; either give news or give silver, but I don't know how Old Chaofeng will choose.
Old Chaofeng was about to be furious.
He had seen thick-skinned people, but this was the first time he had seen such a shameless person.
"Chen Jiang Yucheng, don't make it difficult for the old man!"
"You are joking. My biggest advantage is respecting the old and loving the young; I respect you too late, how could I make it difficult for you. This should actually be said by me; please, Old Chaofeng, look at the fact that it's not easy for me to serve, don't make it difficult for the little one, give some news, and send me away early is the best strategy."
Chen Guanlou was sincere and earnest.
He really just came to buy a piece of news; what's the meaning of pushing back and forth.
Don't say that there is no news in his hands; just Old Chaofeng's attitude makes people suspicious.
Besides, the Heavenly Prison roof collapsed—such big news, the gambling house makes friends with all kinds of people, is there really no trace at all?
The Six Shanmen has the Six Shanmen's way!
The gambling house has the gambling house's way!
Everyone has different ways, and the sources of news are different, which is very possible.
Now it seems that the Six Shanmen's way doesn't work, or there are too many obstacles, and there has been no progress so far. It doesn't make sense that Old Chaofeng also has no news.
Doesn't make sense!
That bunch of jailbreakers, no matter how great they are, they still have to eat and wear clothes, they still have to stay, they still have to enter and leave the capital. People walk, they must leave traces.
With Old Chaofeng's ear-reporting gods all over the streets and alleys of the capital, didn't they discover any abnormality?
Old Chaofeng was so angry that his beard was blowing and his eyes were staring.
"Chen Jiang Yucheng, the old man is now in this half-dead state; do you think the old man still has the ability to support such a big stall?"
Chen Guanlou smiled, "As long as you are still in the gambling house for one day, this stall can't do without you. When you stay at home to retire one day, I really won't disturb you."
These words are true.
No matter how old Old Chaofeng is, as long as he still lives in the gambling house and still manages this stall, he is the center of news. All kinds of incidents of all kinds of people will gather here.
Old Chaofeng was so angry that he picked up the teacup, drinking was not right, and not drinking was not right.
"You shouldn't have such a big opinion of me! The grievances of the past were clarified back then, and they were written off. Look at you, why is it necessary now. Hurry up and give me some clues, and send me away early is the best strategy. You insist on keeping me here for a meal, of course I won't refuse."
Chen Guanlou was sincere; he really liked the gambling house's cook, whose craftsmanship was good.
Old Chaofeng was forced into a corner.
Anyone who encounters such a rogue, can't fight, can't scold. The key is that he can't win, and will feel helpless, seemingly only compromise.
Old Chaofeng coughed lightly and reached out to the beautiful maid beside him.
The beautiful maid didn't make a sound, got up and went to the inner room to take out a wooden box.
Old Chaofeng opened the wooden box with a key, and then pushed the box directly in front of Chen Guanlou, "If there is news inside, then there is. If there is no news inside, then there is none. Don't pester me anymore! This place doesn't welcome you in the future."
"Look at what you said, what welcome or not welcome, I take it as you are joking." Chen Guanlou didn't care about the other party's attitude at all, "Don't worry, if there is really no news, I won't pester you with a thick skin. What do I want from you, nothing more than a sincere attitude. Look, things are just that simple."
He was smiling, not caring at all, opened the wooden box to take a look, and took out a note. After reading it, it turned into dust.
He smiled and bowed to Old Chaofeng, "Many thanks, old gentleman, I will come to find you for tea tomorrow! Thanks to your hospitality today, the harvest is not bad. Goodbye!"
Old Chaofeng:...
He stared at the note that turned into dust, his mood very complicated.
Didn't expect there to be real news.
After Chen Guanlou left, the beautiful maid asked: "Sir, should we send someone to ask?"
Old Chaofeng thought for a while and made a decision, "No need. Regarding the Heavenly Prison, tell the people below, don't inquire in the future, don't pursue it. Let him go. That is a character we can't afford to offend."
The beautiful maid said in a very big tone: "It's just ninth rank."
Old Chaofeng laughed at himself, "Yes, it's just ninth rank! A ninth rank who can challenge across levels even at the peak of ninth rank, and even fought to a draw. What is the situation of the Jixia Academy now, don't you see?"
"If we can invite a Grandmaster to come forward, a mere ninth rank is easy to catch."
"Do you think a Grandmaster is a cabbage on the street, and can be invited casually?" Old Chaofeng chuckled, "You guys, too young, think things too simply. A Grandmaster is not someone you want to invite, and can invite."
"Can't the master come forward to invite?"
"The master is powerful in the secular world, but in the world of Grandmasters, what does it count as. You don't practice martial arts, don't understand the world of warriors, the higher you go, the further away from the red dust, the less you put the money and wealth that everyone in the red dust envies in your eyes."
"That Chen Jiang Yucheng, why does he still stay in the Heavenly Prison? A dignified ninth-rank warrior, being a small prison warden, doesn't he feel ashamed?"
"Do you think he feels ashamed?" Old Chaofeng asked back.
The round-faced beautiful maid shook her head slightly, "I don't think he feels ashamed. It's just that, it's a pity. He looks so good, it's a pity he is a prison warden."
"This prison warden of his is different from other prison wardens." Old Chaofeng laughed and explained patiently to the beautiful maid beside him, "Other prison wardens are under the jurisdiction of superiors. This prison warden of his, who can jurisdiction him. He is willing to cooperate, it's because he understands the rules and doesn't want to have conflicts with colleagues. If one day he is not willing to cooperate, who in the Ministry of Justice can order him! Further, with him sitting in the Heavenly Prison, the Ministry of Justice has a lot of face. The Embroidered Uniform Guard doesn't like to provoke the Ministry of Justice now, and there is also his reason."
"Is he really that powerful?" The round-faced beautiful maid was very curious.
Old Chaofeng nodded with a smile, "He is very powerful, even more powerful than you imagine. So, the old man can only be under his jurisdiction. It's really infuriating!"
Just hoping that one day, a Grandmaster will take the initiative to come forward and clean up the Chen thief.
