Chapter 116: The Truth Twenty Years Ago 【Part 1】(1/2)

Jin Sanliang's speaking skills are indeed brilliant.

His phrase "wealth can be obtained through danger" refers to this hidden underground fletching factory, and also implies that if Zhao Rang takes over this job, the benefits will definitely be huge.

Although the three days were short, the most important thing Zhao Rang showed besides being ruthless and quick-witted was his lack of money.

A cruel person can use the knife in his hand to cut off all ties in order to achieve his goal. Such people are not troublesome and are not afraid of trouble. They are the best candidates for this kind of head-turning job.

Listening to the tapping sound in his ears, Zhao Rang let his mind go for a moment.

Jin Sanliang thought he was hesitating, so he struck while the iron was hot and said:

"This number!"

Zhao Rang saw the fingers stretched out on his right hand and asked:

"One thousand taels?"

Jin Sanliang shook his head:

"Ten thousand taels!"

Zhao Rang did not show shock at this number.

The gold belt for murder and arson.

Every arrow assembled here may take away a life in the future, so the amount of ten thousand taels is just a drop in the bucket for the kind of business done by the Admiralty Escort Agency.

"First tell me what it is."

Seeing how calm Zhao Rang was in the face of such a generous reward, Jin Sanliang couldn't help but become serious.

In the past, the Jianghu people he met would have turned red-eyed and gone crazy when they heard so much money. Even if he was asked to chop his own mother, he might not have said anything.

"It's not difficult for you, help me kill someone."

After Jin Sanliang finished speaking, he paused and added:

"It's not difficult for your skills."

Zhao Rang raised the corners of his mouth and said:

"Does it mean that if I don't have such skills, then I will die?"

Jin Sanliang spread his hands casually, which was exactly what he meant.

You get what you pay for, and the extra money of ten thousand taels of silver is certainly not so easy to earn.

"Whose life is so valuable?"

Although Zhao Rang has not yet decided whether to take this job, this incident has indeed aroused his curiosity.

Jin Sanliang narrowed his eyes and said:

"So, you agreed?"

Zhao Rang replied:

"I at least need to know if you are telling the truth."

A hint of displeasure appeared on Jin Sanliang's face.

The secret environment of the underground fletching factory between the two of them represents a kind of trust. If you want to deceive, then the two sentences above can be said, why do you need to let Zhao Rang see it and believe it?

If more people know about such a thing, the risk will increase. Gold, three and silver are also a gamble.

He bet that Zhao Rang would definitely agree.

"I at least need to know whether the person I want to kill is really not difficult with my skills!"

That makes sense.

After all, the money you earn must be spent wisely.

If you die in vain, even if the reward is increased tenfold, no one will take it.

"An official from the Investigation Department."

Zhao Rang's heart skipped a beat after hearing this.

After trying his best to calm down his mind, he pretended to be nonchalant and said;

"can not do this."

Jin Sanliang didn't expect Zhao Rang to reject him so simply. After a while, he reached out and patted him on the shoulder and said:

"Then let's get together and part ways! But you can stay here for the next few days. You're not familiar enough with the business alliance anyway."

Zhao Rang thanked him and turned around to walk towards the stairs.

After staying underground for a long time, when I first saw the sun, I felt it was very dazzling, even though it was already approaching dusk.

As soon as he stood still, he saw a person emerge from nowhere, walked up to him, and said:

"this way please!"

Zhao Rang followed this man from a side path to the west courtyard.

The courtyard is extremely quiet, as if no one has lived there for a long time.

After the leader opened the door, he asked Zhao Rang to come in, and then said:

"If you need anything, just ask, there are people on duty here day and night."

Zhao Rang couldn't help but sneer in his heart, it was clear that he was going to be placed under house arrest... He thought that if he didn't agree to the job, he probably wouldn't be able to get out of here alive.

But what this man said next completely overturned what Zhao Rang had been thinking.

"If you feel stuffy in the house, you can leave the yard and go to the opposite street. At night, that's the busiest place."

Zhao Rang nodded, indicating that he understood.

The basin in the house has been filled with fresh water, which was obviously prepared in advance.

In the Gobi Desert, water is very valuable.

After washing his face, Zhao Rang sat leisurely in the room. But when he thought of how many pairs of eyes were staring at him outside the room, he felt uncomfortable all over and couldn't stay any longer.

The sky outside the window is filled with red clouds.

Zhao Rang simply pushed the door open and went to the opposite street in a hurry, wanting to see where the "most lively" place the man mentioned was.

As expected, the lively places are similar everywhere, and there are only two types of places - wine and women.

There are many shops across the street, and the aroma of wine mixed with powder went straight into Zhao Rang's nose, making him breathless.

However, it was still early and all these shops were deserted.

Zhao Rang walked half the street, but couldn't find a happy one. He simply stood in the middle of the road, folded his arms on his chest, and looked at the sunset on the horizon.

He raised his arm and touched the iron box placed in the lapel of his clothes.

Zhao Rang always felt that two hundred taels of the three hundred taels of silver were due to the iron box. However, he did not reveal it in front of Ye Sanniang.

After all, it is not a good thing to appear too smart in front of your employer. On the contrary, it will make others feel uneasy about you.

Zhao Rang took out the iron box, put it in the palm of his hand and looked at it.

Under the setting sun, the iron box was covered with a layer of dark red.

Coupled with its exquisite appearance, it is quite elegant!

Just as he was about to put it away again, a girl suddenly walked out of a store next to him, smiled sweetly, and talked to Zhao Rang:

"Is this little brother lost?"

Zhao Rang looked back and saw that this girl had an extremely beautiful face and figure, especially her exposed skin, which seemed to have not been exposed to the wind and sand in the northwest, and was incredibly delicate and white!

"It's just such a road, how could you get lost?"

No man would refuse a chat with a beautiful girl, and Zhao Rang was certainly no exception, even though he knew that the girl must be thinking about the money in his pocket.

"Why are you standing motionless if you're not lost?"

Zhao Rang replied with a smile:

"Because I'm thirsty and hungry. I'm thirsty and hungry, so I don't have the strength to walk!"

The girl became even more eager upon hearing this.

He immediately walked out of the store, hooked Zhao Rang's arm and said:

"That's no coincidence! I have everything in my store!"

Zhao Rang pretended to be cool and asked:

"What's there?"

“With wine and food, it’s the best on the street!”

"It's gone?"

Zhao Rang asked.

The girl put her fingers in front of her mouth, making a silent gesture, then stood on tiptoes and whispered to him:
To be continued...
