The mage in the late Qing Dynasty

Chapter 191 You can call me a charcoal burner

The door opened, and it was the shop assistant who came in.

The store clerk was still puzzled because the place was filled with boiling water and the sound was like rubble.

Why is there no movement now?

A little too quiet.

Therefore, be careful when opening the door.

But even so, everyone's eyes were turned to him, and the boy's hand holding the coffee shook.

Not everyone can withstand so much attention.

He said with a sad face: How about I come back later?

Zhao Chuanxin waved to him, with a gentle tone: Come on, give me the coffee.

The store clerk was relieved.

When the store clerk saw Da Yansheng's body on the ground, he was shocked again. In fear, I couldn't control myself.

Zhao Chuanxin, with quick eyes and quick hands, caught the coffee cup that was about to fall.

His expression changed and he pretended to be cold: Man, you know too much.

The store clerk felt his lower abdomen was bloated and almost peeed out of fear!

Is this going to be silenced?

Unexpectedly, Zhao Chuanxin's expression changed and he said cheerfully: You know too much, know less next time.

This is a reward for you. Just pretend you haven’t seen anything. This is our internal matter. You understand.

get out.

The waiter took the silver dollar and left in a mess.

It's so dangerous here. Serving tea and water involves risking your life.

Then he weighed the silver coins in his hand: I serve tea and water based on my ability, so I can get the money safely!

He really didn't dare to call the police.

After all, none of the people in the room are good people.

Especially the smiling guy, it's so scary.

In the room, Li Ziyu couldn't laugh or cry.

Although he had only met twice, he had studied Zhao Chuanxin for a long time, and with these two meetings, he had figured out Zhao Chuanxin's temperament.

As long as you don't mess with him, he is harmless to humans and animals, and he is quite humorous.

Seeing that the guy had gone out, Zhao Chuanxin turned around and said, Since everyone has no objections, how about you continue the meeting? Can I observe?

He's here, holding a fart meeting?

The corpse of Big Eyes Sheng is lying on the ground. Do you want to talk around the corpse at night?

Jin Yacheng spoke: My friend, you have gone too far, right?

Although he and Big Eyes Sheng are usually incompatible.

I almost made a move just now.

However, if Big Eyes wins, he will be miserable.

How can you say that even a person with a famous name in the world can be killed if he wants to?

Zhao Chuanxin shrugged: Otherwise, do you want to wrap him up in mourning?

Jin Yacheng: You...

So choking.

Nothing that came out of this man's mouth was unkind.

Okay, okay, look at you, you are so angry. You are so angry that you are rolling your eyes. Zhao Chuanxin looked very magnanimous: Come on, come on, please sit down first. I have something else to do. I have to ask.

No one moved.

Although everyone is a little worried, there are many of them and they don't think Zhao Chuanxin can fight against everyone here.

Zhao Chuanxin took a look and moved his hand behind him, revealing a Madsen machine gun.

Because eating chili is popular in Lugang Town, chili is indispensable in barbecue hot pot. The magazine of the Madsen machine gun curved upward, so the insurance team nicknamed it Chaotian Pepper.

When the Madsen machine gun was placed on the table, everyone's expressions changed drastically.

Zhao Chuanxin: Sit, or not?

sit!

Dakuchang recognized Zhao Chuanxin.

That day, it was here that he was threatened by Zhao Chuanxin with Madson pointed at him.

Today, he knows the current affairs and is the first to respond to the call.

With that said, he held up the chair and sat down.

At least, he knew that Zhao Chuanxin didn't just scare people and talk, he really killed people without blinking an eye!

When everyone saw Dakuchang sitting so happily, they secretly cursed him as a coward.

While cursing in his mind, he picked up the chair and sat down.

This is probably called a double-labeled dog.

After sitting down, Zhao Chuanxin took a sip of coffee.

He smashed it and said, Don't say it, it tastes really delicious, much better than instant coffee.

Do you want to try it?

Forget it, it’s quite expensive, so I’ll just drink it myself.

Everyone: ...

Suddenly Zhao Chuanxin slapped his thigh: Oops, I forgot to ask Big Eyeball one thing.

Tang has always been a low-key person.

Who leaked my whereabouts?

No one spoke.

Zhao Chuanxin frowned, easily raised the Madsen machine gun with one hand, and pointed it at the head of the person next to him: If you shoot at such a close range, your head will be torn apart like a watermelon hit by a sledgehammer.

Tell me, who leaked it to the old boy Midun?

If you don’t say anything, I will shoot one by one. Sooner or later someone will speak.

The man's body was shaking violently and he muttered, I really don't know.

At this time, someone spoke.

Li Ziyu said calmly: No need to ask, I know.

Although his tone was calm, his face was very pale.

However, opening his mouth was the result of all kinds of considerations.

He was still somewhat confident that he could save his life after explaining the truth.

Zhao Chuanxin raised his eyebrows: Oh?

Okay, let's go aside and chat.

As for you, just continue with the meeting and pretend I don't exist.

With that said, he pulled the chair out and went to the corner.

Li Ziyu looked at it and had no choice but to move his chair.

Zhao Chuanxin has the biggest fist here, and he must be listened to.

Zhao Chuanxin was about to speak, but found that everyone was looking at him and saying nothing.

He suddenly became unhappy.

He said to Zheng Guohua: You continue to preside over the meeting? You are so quiet, how can I whisper? You don't give face, do you?

As for Zheng Guohua, from being confused at the beginning to being shocked when he saw Zhao Chuanxin's decisive killing, now he only had a wry smile.

So you are such a person.

If I had known this, I wouldn't have argued with you about which horse was faster at the racecourse.

That's arguing at the risk of one's life.

Although he is old, he has not lived enough yet.

He coughed and cleared his throat: Let's continue, continue. Where are you talking about? Yes, the prefix Li means harmony is the most important thing!

This time, everyone was polite in a very tacit understanding.

Hey, Jinya has the widest sphere of influence. How about you take over?

Jin Yacheng: If you don't dare to take it seriously, let's sit down with Dakuchang.

Daguuchang: How can I have that ability? I don't know how to do porcelain work without diamonds? I think it's better to let Uncle Zheng sit in the restaurant.

Zheng Guohua: I have old bones and half of my body has been buried in the ground. Let me enjoy a few more years of happiness...

Zhao Chuanxin pointed at them and said, Did you see it? They are so friendly. I just like this atmosphere. It seems that these people know quality, although there are not many.

... Li Ziyu also coughed: Mr. Zhao...

Zhao Chuanxin looked surprised: Do you recognize me?

Fortunately, he kept saying I am under Tang Ju.

Therefore, Li Ziyu explained one by one how he deduced that Zhao Chuanxin had stolen banks from various countries through various clues.

This is much more detailed than what I told Midun.

Zhao Chuanxin, on the other hand, marveled at Li Ziyu's power.

When did the Chinese have a Sherlock Holmes-like genius?

But he said: So, it was you who leaked my whereabouts? What else is there to say? Now I am informing you that noon has arrived!

As he spoke, he raised his gun.

Li Ziyu was startled, and his face turned pale: Wait, wait, wait, Mr. Zhao, I still have something to say.

He was really scared.

Zhao Chuanxin put down his gun: But it doesn't matter!

Li Ziyu continued: According to your habit, you won't stay in one place for too long, and you will eventually return to Lugang Town outside the Pass. So, I told Midun that just stay at the port, especially the ship to the north. .

I am only responsible for solving cases, but it is not my job to be responsible for arrests.

Zhao Chuanxin touched his chin, a little irritated.

He said: In that case, you only have half the responsibility?

That's okay, I'll just shoot half of your head.

Half a head?

Li Ziyu was dumbfounded.

Are you kidding me?

He quickly continued: That's it, Mr. Zhao. I think there are two sides to the matter.

I heard that your Lugang Town intends to engage in commercial activities on Hong Kong Island?

Do you want to do shipping and build power plants?

Mr. Zhao, the power plant is currently in the hands of the British, and they will not let you participate easily.

The same goes for shipping.

Since Lugang Town wants a piece of the pie, it must contact Governor Midun.

It is better to dissolve enemies than to make enemies.

Why don't we sit down and have a good talk to resolve the misunderstanding?

Hearing this, Zhao Chuanxin's face showed surprise: Hey, your suggestion is very good, very good. Well, there is nothing else to do without you. I will find Renren and Midun to discuss it. Now let's send you on your way.

Li Ziyu smiled awkwardly: Mr. Zhao, stop joking.

You killed... no, you dealt with a few British policemen, and offended Midun that day.

You don't understand Midun. He is rude, arrogant, and willful.

If you rashly ask someone to come to your door, he will not only ignore you, but may also hinder the development of Lugang Town on Hong Kong Island.

As everyone knows, I can still say a few words in front of Midun.

With me as the matchmaker, I think there is an 80% to 90% chance of success.

I have to say that Li Ziyu is a talent.

He has a knack for solving crimes and is also eloquent.

It can be said that he is a very contradictory and eclectic talent.

According to Zhao Chuanxin's previous idea, just kill Midun to take revenge and relieve his anger.

But according to Li Ziyu's analysis, it is true that if Lugang Town wants to do business on Hong Kong Island, it cannot avoid Midun Mountain no matter what.

So what if I take Midun? The next governor won't be any better.

All successive governors of Hong Kong Island have always discriminated against the Chinese.

Seeing Zhao Chuanxin's expression finally relaxed.

Li Ziyu struck while the iron was hot: Mr. Zhao, I understand your character. You must want to 'remove' Midun, right?

He also carefully used remove instead of killing.

Zhao Chuanxin immediately denied it: How could I be such a cruel person? My friend, you misjudged me!

Lu Xun once said: Don't hate your enemies, it will affect your judgment.

Lu Xun also said: Don't let your opponent know your thoughts.

Zhao Chuanxin was convinced.

Li Ziyu was unable to complain.

Believe me, I'm a fool.

He continued: “But it’s useless to remove him. When the next governor comes, things will still be difficult.

It's better to take advantage of Midun's opportunity to offend you and make him bow his head and compromise.

Midun is actually also very afraid of you.

This action was due to his arrogance. He always thought that the Chinese could deal with the Chinese with twice the result with half the effort.

But apparently he didn't know Mr. Zhao well enough. Mr. Zhao is not an ordinary person!

But if Midun is removed, if the next governor is stubborn and tries every means to deal with Mr. Zhao, then Mr. Zhao...

He started playing with blank dialogue again.

If the person sitting opposite was Midun at this time, Midun would definitely yell: Am I afraid of him? Just him? Just him?

But Zhao Chuanxin,

His eyes lit up and he said, Oh? If the next governor is stubborn and wants to deal with me, can I give him several opportunities to offend me, so that I have more chips to blackmail him? is that so?

puff……

Li Ziyu's mentality immediately exploded!

He scratched his head frantically: Mr. Zhao, if I were you, I would definitely seize this opportunity. Don't miss this opportunity, or it will never come back!

He discovered that when talking to people like Zhao Chuanxin, you can't play tricks.

Because they don't play according to the routine at all.

If you throw it out against three, it will explode if they throw it away.

You can't guess at all, you know?

Hmm! Zhao Chuanxin was thoughtful. It's interesting. Can I give you a chance?

Li Ziyu nodded crazily: Yes, yes, I will definitely strive for the best interests for Mr. Zhao.

This is what you said. It doesn't matter if the benefit you strive for is the second largest, it must be the largest.

Li Ziyu smiled bitterly.

Dare you not try your best?

Okay, then half of your head will be placed on your neck for the time being. If this is not done, Midun will pull half of your head, and you will pull half of your head. Even if you escape to the ends of the world, I can still take your heads!

Yes, yes, yes, Mr. Zhao, don't worry, we will go all out sincerely!

Sincerity?

Li Ziyu hurriedly explained: Sincerity is my epitome.

Zhao Chuanxin thought for a while and suddenly realized: Okay, this is a good word. With sincerity, gold and stone will open!

Isn't Yuke just a gold stone?

After the gold stone was opened, the original appearance of the treasure was revealed.

Li Ziyu climbed along the pole and said warmly: Mr. Zhao, does he have a cousin?

Zhao Chuanxin shook his head: No.

It's a pity, only elders can give you a cousin.

Yes, even the martial artist Zhang Zhankui has a nickname.

How could a person like me, who is so talented and rich, not have it?

Zhao Chuanxin rubbed his chin and fell into deep thought.

For a moment, he muttered: Passing on the fire and continuing the fire, passing on the fire and continuing the fire? Is it called continuing the fire? Passing on the fire?

Seeing this, Li Ziyu interrupted: Mr. Zhao, the origin of your name can also be passed down from generation to generation. Zhuangzi said: It refers to those who are poor for salary, and the transmission of fire is also unknown to them.

The so-called physical body is exhausted but the spirit is immortal.

If not, call me Chengming?

Pass on the salary to inherit the light?

Zhao Chuanxin gave a thumbs up: Okay, Jingcheng, your brother has a few tricks up his sleeve!

In fact, Li Ziyu habitually uses white space in this conversation.

But this time there was no trace left.

He smiled modestly: It's a small skill, not worth mentioning.

So, this word?

Zhao Chuanxin laughed and said, The alias is very good, but I don't use it.

Forehead……

Because I know someone who is a bannerman and a friend. His name is Cheng Ming. Cheng Ming and Cheng Ming are homophonic, iron juice! When someone shouts, both of them turn around at the same time. The scene is too embarrassing.

Now that he had a good idea, Li Ziyu was unwilling to give up.

He asked tentatively: Then, should I think of another one?

Zhao Chuanxin sat up straight: Look. I have a couplet.

The first couplet is - the fire is passed down to the charcoal-burning workers.

The second line is - a man fishing in a strip of water.

It would be better to call him a charcoal burner or a fisherman.

Li Ziyu wanted to curse.

Do you know that you have tarnished my knowledge?

Seeing that he looked like he was constipated, Zhao Chuanxin patted his shoulder: Okay, from now on you can call me - charcoal burner. If you call me, I will definitely agree.

Seeing that his eyes were wandering and he didn't answer.

Zhao Chuanxin took a step back: If it doesn't work out, I can agree to it if you call me a fisherman. If you don't believe me, why don't you give it a try?

Well, that's all right, Mr. Zhao.

Li Ziyu doesn't know how to shout.

The chatting here is okay and I'm quite happy.

Anyway, Zhao Chuanxin is very happy.

Over there, Zheng Guohua had a headache at first because everyone was fighting for seats in the restaurant, and now he was troubled by the humility of each other.

No one wants to be a sit-in anyway.

You let me, I let you, give and take, and finally froze.

Now that I have understood it, I have understood it thoroughly.

Zhao Chuanxin moved his chair and joined Zheng Guohua and his team.

He joins in wherever the excitement is, isn't that just his temperament.

Ha, that's a good chat, isn't it? Zhao Chuanxin joined in happily.

As a result, when he spoke, no one there spoke.

I heard you talking about sitting in a restaurant? Zhao Chuanxin asked: What does sitting in a restaurant mean?

He knew it when he went out to the restaurant, and his eyes darkened when he was sitting in the restaurant.

Zheng Guohua had no choice but to explain to him: Now all the gangs in Hong Kong are scattered and attacking each other. I propose to gather people from all gangs and teach them Hongmen's Hong Fist and gang rules, and agree on peaceful coexistence. We all value harmony and develop together. It can protect us from being bullied by foreigners, and it is also good for business development.”

Seeing that Zheng Guohua was very sincere, Zhao Chuanxin thought to himself: I'm afraid that those indifferent Hs societies in future generations started from your proposal today, right?

Zheng Guohua continued: Now that we have gathered together, we will sit in the hall after 489.

The following are the heads of each hall.

Further down, there are 4,26 red sticks and 4,15 white paper fans!

Now, we are discussing who to recommend to sit in the hall.

Zhao Chuanxin looked left and right: You don't even want to sit in the restaurant?

Dakuchang was the first to shake his head: I'm not going to sit in the restaurant anyway.

Some people echoed him and shook their heads.

Zhao Chuanxin smiled and said, Uncle Zheng, I also have a very strange skeleton. Since I was a child, people have said that I am a genius, one in ten thousand. There was also an old beggar who taught me a book called Ten Subduing the Dragon. Eight Palms has now achieved some success. Why don't I come and sit in the restaurant? I will sit in the restaurant every day to collect money, and then you will go out to work.

These words almost made the noses of everyone present become angry.

We work and you sit and collect money. How do you have the nerve to say it?

Jin Yacheng wiped his sweat and said, Well, you can't say it like this. We all work to make ends meet, and we don't earn much. We mainly do it to take care of each other.

Zhao Chuanxin suddenly realized: Oh, no wonder you are not willing to sit in the restaurant.

Emotions, I work as your peacemaker every day, and then you don’t pay me, so I work for you for nothing?

Dakuchang hurriedly said: That's not the case. Even if we create a new prefix, we still have to find a ghost guy to register it. Just like our Lianxinsheng, they are all registered...

Only then did Zhao Chuanxin understand.

They registered something similar to a union, but it was not a union.
