Chapter 780
Yi Yi Zhonghai was so angry he wanted to curse. This Jia Jia Zhangshi’s heart was too black; she was even more calculating than Yan Yan Fugui.
But when people are under the eaves, they have to bow their heads. A tiger fallen on the plains is bullied by dogs.
He really wanted to sleep soundly; the days inside were truly too bitter.
Resisting the urge to slap someone, Yi Yi Zhonghai agreed to Jia Jia Zhangshi, went back to the room, and let Lady Yi and the Deaf Old Lady move into the Jia family’s house, sleeping on the bed that Qin Qin Jingru once slept on in the outer room. They would just have to squeeze in and overcome the difficulties; he would think of a way to get a bed tomorrow.
After settling Lady Yi and the Deaf Old Lady, Yi Yi Zhonghai and Seeing Shazhu were finally able to sleep soundly. The exhausted father and son hugged each other and entered sweet dreams.
Beihai Park
Cao Cao Weiguo was sitting leisurely on the bank fishing. Zhao Zhao Yuanchao bent over and said mysteriously: "Big Brother, this is a rare opportunity. As long as you are willing to move your hand, that big piece of fat meat is guaranteed to be in your grasp."
"I don't touch things like killing people for goods or seizing by force!"
Cao Cao Weiguo frowned, subconsciously thinking of Zhao Zhao Yuanchao in the wrong way.
But this couldn't be blamed on Cao Cao Weiguo; it was because most of the things Liu Shan, Zhao Zhao Yuanchao, and Li Jiannan did were not visible to the light. Although they hadn't reached the point of killing people for goods, fighting and competing for bravery were inevitable. Not long ago, Liu Shan’s gang fought with a group of ruffians from Fengtai to compete for territory in the black market, almost beating each other’s brains out, which had given Cao Cao Weiguo a fright.
It was also thanks to the fact that there were a few children of big courtyards among those ruffians who had people supporting them, which covered up the matter; otherwise, if the police had investigated seriously, Liu Shan and his gang would have had to run to the deep mountains and forests to avoid disaster.
Even now, Liu Shan was hiding somewhere in Henan, leaving the business to Zhao Zhao Yuanchao and Sun Chao, and he probably wouldn't be back for a year or a year and a half.
Zhao Zhao Yuanchao hurriedly said: "Big Brother, look at what you’re saying. How would I dare to tell you about such things? The matter is like this: Brother Heizi, who is confused, offended an old Eight Banners member who came from the Northeast. That old Eight Banners member’s ancestors were Iron-Cap Kings, and his family background was terrifyingly thick. Even if he was down on his luck and liberated, this old Eight Banners member was not comparable to ordinary people. He not only had money but also extensive connections, knew many powerful characters, and raised a group of "family servants" with great skills under his hand. This Brother Heizi made the old Eight Banners member truly angry, and he privately let out word that he wanted Brother Heizi’s two hands. At the moment, Brother Heizi is holding real gold and silver, begging for help everywhere, just hoping to survive this disaster. Don't worry, this matter might be a problem for others, but for you, it’s not a big problem."
Cao Cao Weiguo caught a grass carp and said calmly: "A bit interesting, tell me."
Zhao Zhao Yuanchao narrated: "This Brother Heizi is a thief who stole a treasure from the old Eight Banners member, Second Master Cheng. It is said that it was an imperial treasure bestowed upon his family by Emperor Kangxi. Second Master Cheng was furious and let out word that he wanted to chop off Brother Heizi’s hands. Everyone on the streets of the capital sells face to Second Master Cheng, and no one is willing to stand up for Brother Heizi. Now Brother Heizi is like an ant on a hot pot. As long as you are willing to step forward and help settle this matter, Brother Heizi is willing to spend money to buy peace."
Cao Cao Weiguo made a beautiful cast, and the fishhook sank into the water: "Hmph, I’m afraid this money is not so easy to take."
Zhao Zhao Yuanchao said with a solemn expression: "This... Second Master Cheng and the people under his hand are all quite skilled, and it is said that they are all ruthless. Several of Brother Heizi’s brothers have been crippled."
To say that this capital, as the capital, must be crouching tigers and hidden dragons, but Brother Heizi held national treasures and gold and couldn't invite anyone to stand up for him. There was the reason for Second Master Cheng’s face, but more importantly, Second Master Cheng was not easy to provoke, and he couldn't be provoked. Money is good, but you have to have a life to take it.
Cao Cao Weiguo laughed: "Then why did you tell me about this?"
Zhao Zhao Yuanchao complimented: "Ordinary people naturally don't have this courage and ability, but you are not an ordinary person. We brothers admire your skills to the ground. Moreover, I know you like to collect antiques, and Brother Heizi has quite a few antiques in his hands. This time, what he stole from Second Master Cheng’s hands is said to be the Luminous Nine Dragon Cup."
"Luminous Nine Dragon Cup."
Cao Cao Weiguo’s hand holding the fishing rod shook.
The Luminous Nine Dragon Cup was a treasure that became famous during the Northern Song Dynasty. It would be no exaggeration to say it was worth a city.
Seeing the prey, his heart was happy!
Cao Cao Weiguo was moved!
Second Master Cheng, with an extraordinary family background, is a dragon crossing the river, so what?
It is no longer the world of the Great Qing; their Great Qing died long ago. Now it is the people who are the masters.
Under this red flag, even if the Iron-Cap King were reborn, it wouldn't work.
Second Master Cheng?
Hmph!
Famous!
I, Cao Cao Weiguo, really want to meet him.
After a moment of silence, a cold wind blew, and Cao Cao Weiguo’s eyes were deep: "Go and bring Brother Heizi over."
Zhao Zhao Yuanchao was secretly happy when he heard this and went to find Brother Heizi without stopping.
He was so active in telling Cao Cao Weiguo about the matter, naturally not for nothing, but because he had received Brother Heizi’s money.
Half an hour later, Brother Heizi, who had heard a little bit, followed Zhao Zhao Yuanchao to Cao Cao Weiguo’s side, bowed respectfully, and said in a low voice: "Big Brother Cao, I have long heard of your great name, please save me, Big Brother Cao!"
This Brother Heizi was once a clerk at Qinfangju, a famous pickle shop in the capital. Even now, he was an employee of the pickle factory, but in fact, this guy was not a small character. He was a figure on the streets and had done quite a few things with Hai Shengjie, and later he stood on his own... doing big and strong things privately.
But this time he met a hard stubble and kicked an iron plate. He was scared out of his wits. Being afraid of death, he could only cut off his tail to survive.
Cao Cao Weiguo looked at the water surface and said: "The Nine Dragon Cup is in your hands."
Brother Heizi said with a face full of reluctance: "It is in my hands."
Cao Cao Weiguo: "Give me the Nine Dragon Cup, and then pay twenty small yellow fish. I will try my best to help you settle your matter."
Brother Heizi, who had been prepared mentally, said painfully: "I will listen to your instructions."
Cao Cao Weiguo: "Zhao Yuanchao, you go with Brother Heizi to get the things, and then we will go to visit Second Master Cheng together."
