Chapter 45 Three pieces of ghost money, a friend coming to visit?

Zhang Xiaodao understood that the other party was probably not deceiving him, so he opened his eyes and saw his current situation clearly.

Judging from the surrounding environment, she was now in the carriage of a carriage, but she didn't know what was going on outside.

At this time, she and the tavern owner were the only two people in the carriage.

Looking at the wary Zhang Xiaodao, the tavern owner smiled and said: "Don't be nervous. I made you faint before because some of the arrangements were not suitable for outsiders to see. It was purely for safety reasons. You should understand, right?"

"Where am I now?" Zhang Xiaodao asked.

"It's no longer in Cuckoo City. Don't worry. The gentlemen's club is indeed deeply rooted here, but it's still far from snatching people away from us." The tavern owner shook his head and smiled.

"What gentleman's club?" Zhang Xiaodao pretended to be confused.

"I understand your caution, but since Xiao Su is willing to spend three pieces of ghost money as a reward for you, I will definitely send you to a safe place. You really don't need to be so suspicious," the tavern owner said.

"Three pieces of ghost money?"

"Don't you know? That's because I'm talking too much. You can ask her yourself when you have the chance. Anyway, you are safe now." The tavern owner shrugged.

Zhang Xiaodao had actually reacted at this time and knew that he might have misunderstood.

The reason why the other party knocked her out before was probably because she was afraid that she would see some of Gui Tumo's arrangements in Cuckoo City. After all, she was an outsider.

It is not difficult to tell from what the tavern owner just said that the path Su Xueqi arranged for her should have come at a certain price, but this price was some kind of exchange of interests within Guitumo.

But even though Su Xueqi had paid the price for her in advance, she was not a pushover after all.

They couldn't let her see too many arrangements. Otherwise, even if they sent her out, they wouldn't be able to let her leave without worry.

So the best way is undoubtedly to make her lose consciousness for a while.

When she woke up, everything had settled.

Just like it is now.

"Thank you." Zhang Xiaodao, realizing that he had misunderstood, said to the tavern owner.

"No, there's nothing to thank you for. I saved you for those three pieces of ghost money. You don't owe me anything." The tavern owner shook his head at first, but then asked, "But if you really feel sorry for yourself, you can tell me

Let me tell you how you offended the Gentlemen's Club and actually let them go to such trouble to find you, even issuing a wanted order?"

"You don't know?" Zhang Xiaodao was a little surprised.

"Should I know?" The tavern owner was also stunned for a moment, and then he understood why Zhang Xiaodao asked this question, and laughed dumbly and said, "Do you think Xiao Su told me your situation?"

"There's none?"

"Of course not." The tavern owner shook his head and said, "The reason why I know it's the Gentlemen's Club looking for you is just because they don't have any secrets under our noses, not to mention that they made such a big noise."

Zhang Xiaodao nodded to express his understanding. After thinking for a while, he said: "Then can I not answer this question?"

"No problem at all. I'm just curious. It's your choice whether to tell me or not. You don't owe me anything." The tavern owner raised his hands to show that he had no other intention and was just curious.

"Anyway, I'm sorry to trouble you." Zhang Xiaodao said again.

"It's easy, just remember to ask Xiao Su to give me a good review." The tavern owner smiled, "Then you can rest first, I won't disturb you anymore."

Zhang Xiaodao nodded and leaned against the carriage.

At this moment, her hanging heart finally relaxed.

"I don't know if Uncle Ji met that little fox. I had to bleed heavily to save her this time." Su Xueqi complained.

Next to Su Xueqi, who else is Luo Xia?

Now, three days have passed since Rorschach and Rex arrived in the mountain capital, and the Iron Wall Caravan arrived here half a day earlier than originally expected.

Since the previous replacement ended much earlier than Rorschach and the others expected, Rorschach had already told Su Xueqi where he would stay in the mountain capital before this replacement started.

After Su Xueqi and the others arrived in the mountain capital, such a large group of people naturally couldn't afford to stay in the high-end hotel where Luo Xia and the others stayed, so the alternative was to stay in a hotel that was relatively close.

After Luo Xia sensed that Su Xueqi had arrived in the mountain capital through the master-slave mark, he came directly to find her.

As for Rex, the cheap teacher, he has often disappeared since arriving in the mountain capital, and it is unknown what subversive plan he is working on.

In fact, if you really want to talk about it, Rex can now be said to be the number one rebel in the Empire of Storms!

Rorschach only hoped that Rex would be more reliable and not be suppressed too early, lest he, a cheap disciple, would be brought along with him.

But for the moment, he was content with Rex's absence.

Listening to Su Xueqi's complaints in his mind, Luo Xia couldn't help but ask: "Who is Uncle Ji?"

"He's the owner of the Dreamland tavern I asked her to go to. His real name is Jixiang. He's the boss of our company in Sanhai Province."

Su Xueqi explained in her mind, "He is an old man in the company. It is said that he is of the same generation as the founders of our company, but he is too lazy and gradually became the head of a branch here in Dayan."

.”

"However, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. His strength is not comparable to that of the bosses of ordinary branches. For example, that old hermaphrodite Tong Baibai is definitely not his opponent."

Su Xueqi was obviously unhappy when she talked about Tong Baibai, and her words were undoubtedly filled with personal grudges.

Of course Luo Xia knew that Tong Baibai was the first person in charge of Guidumo's Tianbei branch, that is, Mr. Tong, the general manager of the branch.

This is also a man whom Rorschach only knew by name.

But judging from Su Xueqi's attitude, this Tong Baibai is obviously not an easy person.

As for the Uncle Ji mentioned by Su Xueqi, since he is of the same generation as the founder of Guituimo, he must have some abilities.

The reason why Su Xueqi used 'reduced' to describe the other party must be relative.

After all, Great Yan has seventy-two provinces, and Gui Tui Mo has branches in more than twenty provinces, which also means that there are more than twenty branch bosses.

At the same time, although Guitumo was founded in Dayan, its sphere of influence has long spread to the whole world.

Across the world, there are at least fifty positions similar to branch bosses in a single province.

This does not include some senior positions in other positions.

As for the position of branch boss alone, his internal status within Guidumo is probably not even within the top fifty, which is indeed considered a downfall for the elders.

However, with such a person as a helping hand, Zhang Xiaodao's safety must not be a problem.

He no longer has to worry about plans being scrapped prematurely.

While the two were talking, they had returned to the hotel where Rorschach and the others were staying. At this time, the familiar waitress had come over and said to Rorschach with a smile on her face: "Mr. Rorschach, your friend came to the hotel to look for you earlier."

Since you are not here, please let me forward this letter to you."

As she spoke, she took out a letter from her arms.

"My friend?" Rorschach calmly took the letter and said to the waitress, "That's really troublesome for you."

"You're welcome, this is what I should do." The waitress smiled.

Luo Xia didn't say much, and took Su Xueqi to the side, opened the envelope, and quickly glanced at the contents of the letter.
