Strategies of General’s Daughter - C384
Chapter 384 – Costs (2)
Zheng Li nodded. “Yeah.”
After a moment…
The two men sat on a horse, then wandered off to the side. The other men looked at them and couldn’t figure out what was going on in their master’s head. Perhaps they were thinking different things.
Zheng Li sat behind Qiu Jinzhi and asked him. Where did you go last night? A Ze came to find you for the entire night. ”
Qiu Jinzhi had always thought that yesterday’s matter was a dream, but he never thought that it was actually happening.
“How do you know?”
After Qiu Jinzhi heard this. A Ze, you looked for me for an entire night? ” “This is unbelievable.” “You guys are right in that village …”
Zheng Li nodded. That’s right, I heard that you were taken away to be a pampered husband. Now that the population business is in such a bad mood, you actually took it away? ”
Qiu Jinzhi did not speak.
Zheng Li sat behind Qiu Jinzhi. “He looked very surprised, and he even grumbled.” A Ze also said that if you know martial arts, you will definitely take care of those people. Who would have thought that you would actually be taken away and taken as your son-in-law? ”
Qiu Jinzhi pursed his lips and did not speak. “After a long while.” There’s no need to talk about such disgraceful things. I always want some face. ”
Zheng Li laughed. After riding on his horse for a while, Qiu Jinzhi looked around at his surroundings. The environment here is not bad, and finally, he bade farewell to Zheng Li. ” “Go to other places and take a look. I’m a bit tired and don’t want to see the scenery anymore. Thank you for treating me so well.”
Zheng Li shook his head and said after obtaining the gossip resources he wanted to know about. “Un, that’s about it. If I leave, you don’t need to think about me anymore. I’ll be leaving first!” This could be considered as a form of farewell.
Earlier on, when Qiu Jinzhi had woken up, he had always thought that it was just a dream. He had woken up and Bai Ze had given him the medicine, although he felt uncomfortable being told he needed to drink it the moment he woke up, since this medicine was given to him to drink, he had raised his head and drunk it.
But what Zheng Li had just said to him made Qiu Jinzhi understand that everything that had happened yesterday had happened in reality. Moreover, it had always been something that he could not comprehend.
Just yesterday, Qiu Jinzhi had been selling some things he would normally play with on the streets. When he was buying a puppet from a peddler, he would say goodbye. This puppet was able to be manipulated by the peddler, had any posture, posture or movements. As long as one grasped the essential points, it was a very good item.
Qiu Jinzhi asked the trader. “Little brother, how much is this golem?”
“This puppet was bought from the Western Regions. Little brother, I think you really like this thing. How about this? I see that you have a nice face, so why don’t I gift this to you? I just want to ask for a favor.”
Qiu Jinzhi came out today to purchase some money, so he didn’t have the time to help this little brother with his work. Thus, he directly rejected him.
The peddler was stunned at first, he really didn’t think that Qiu Jinzhi would say such a thing.
“I don’t need you to pay for this. As long as you give me enough money, it won’t be a problem.”
Qiu Jinzhi didn’t want to do anything. He was rich now, he only wanted to pay, and then, he would leave after taking the things. If I don’t do anything, can’t I give you money? ”
“There are some things that are far more important than money, so I think you should hire someone else.” That peddler immediately rejected Qiu Jinzhi.
Qiu Jinzhi looked at the exquisite work that the golem had done, and felt indignant that he had given up. So what do you want me to do for you? ”
Since the other party wanted his help, he could only agree. After all, who told him to ask for help? Qiu Jinzhi could only agree, and asked: Then what do you need me to do for you?
The small trader took out a letter and gave it to Qiu Jinzhi.
Qiu Jinzhi looked at the letter in the peddler’s hand. Qiu Jinzhi had a lot of thoughts in his mind, but on the surface he still pretended to be stupid and sweet.
“What are you doing? What do you want me to do? ” Qiu Jinzhi looked at the little guy curiously.
“As long as you help me deliver this letter to that alley and take the reply, I will give you the delicate puppet.”
This temptation was really great. As long as they could get this puppet back, they would be able to do such an easy task. It would be like a pie falling from the sky, able to crush Qiu Jinzhi to death with a single blow.
Qiu Jinzhi asked again and again: “Really?”
“The peddler nodded.” “Really, why would I lie to you? I was really serious when I started.”
After taking the letter, he very carefully walked toward the mouth of the alley. When he was halfway there, Qiu Jinzhi turned his head to look at the peddler, and stared fixedly in the direction he had gone.
Qiu Jinzhi kept feeling that this was just a trick, and immediately turned around. “Speak.” I’m not going. ” He handed the letter back to the peddler and said.
Ye Zichen looked up, but didn’t think that the things he gave out would be returned.
The peddler asked, “Why aren’t you sending them off? Just a moment ago, you had agreed to be a good man, but now, why aren’t you agreeing? Are you going back on your word? ”
Qiu Jinzhi shook his head. “I didn’t go back on my word. Instead …”
“The peddler looked at him.” but what? ”
“But …” Qiu Jinzhi said. Your letter is clearly only a step away, yet you want me to deliver it. I feel that something is amiss, I just have taken a fancy to your puppet. If you want me to do this, then I won’t do it. With that, Qiu Jinzhi threw down the envelope and left.
