Why is Li Jiu the one who opened the door?

Isn't this the residence of the Xiangtang master?

Bian Qing turned to Bai Yu, and his eyes seemed to ask Bai Yu what was going on.

Bai Yu looked at the knife in Li Jiu's hand, "Boss, we are worried that you will be ambushed, so we came to help you."

Li Jiu nodded, "There was indeed an ambush, but it has been resolved. Come in with me and search the Xiangtang master's inheritance."

Li Jiu turned around and led the two into the house.

Bian Qing followed behind, breathed a sigh of relief, and whispered: "You guessed wrong, the human rat has nothing to do with the Xiangtang master."

Bai Yu pursed his lips, recalled Li Jiu's previous record, and shook his head gently, "Not necessarily."

"It is undeniable that he is very strong, but the human rat is stronger. The Xiangtang master is still a warrior of the same level as me. If he ambushed Li Jiu, the result can be imagined." Bian Qing said.

During the conversation, the three entered the chaotic hall. Two people and a monster were lying on the ground, looking very "peaceful".

Seeing this scene, Bai Yu showed a look of "as expected".

This is the style of his boss.

Bian Qing stopped, and the unwillingness and madness on the face of the human rat came into his eyes. He silently lowered his head to look at the wound, and then put away the knife.

Li Jiu kicked the human rat's head, "Were you injured by it?"

The half-broken neck of the human rat was finally broken, and the hideous rat head rolled to Bian Qing's feet.

Bian Qing imitated Bai Yu and pursed his lips.

The human rat who had forced him into a desperate situation half an hour ago died just like that.

Died at the hands of a warrior with a lower realm than him.

Although he had heard from Bai Yu that Li Jiu's fighting power was extraordinary, he was still shocked and surprised after seeing it with his own eyes.

Is the gap between warriors really that big?

After holding it in for a long time, Bian Qing uttered a sentence, "How did you practice?"

"Practice desperately." Li Jiu said casually.

He skillfully fumbled out the money bag from the corpse of the incense hall master.

He opened the bag and was overjoyed.

There were three gold cakes in it. He weighed them and found that each gold cake weighed about five taels.

Three gold cakes weighed fifteen taels.

One tael of gold weighed one hundred taels of silver, so three gold cakes weighed one thousand five hundred taels.

Finally, he had money to buy the iron mother!

"Are you short of money?" Bian Qing asked when he saw this.

"It's in great demand, and even more so, iron mother."

Bian Qing pondered, "Iron mother? The kind of iron mother used to make weapons?"

"Yes, do you have any on hand?"

"A little, but that's what the government has seized, I can't give it to you for free."

Li Jiu stretched out his hand and handed the purse to Bian Qing, "I'll exchange it for money."

Bian Qing glanced at the gold cakes in the purse and shook his head, "Not enough."

As if afraid that Li Jiu would misunderstand, Bian Qing continued, "I'm not greedy for your money, it's really not enough, even if I decide to give you a low price, it's far from enough."

"How many iron mothers does the government have?" Li Jiu asked.

"There are 500 kilograms in the account, but at least 5,000 kilograms in reality. I haven't checked the exact amount. You killed several demons last night and protected the people. I can use this as an excuse to talk to the chief clerk and sell you the iron mothers. The price will be cheaper than the market price." Bian Qing said.

"How much silver do you think it will cost?"

Bian Qing thought for a moment, "About three thousand taels."

"So little?"

"Robbery... no, it's the goods that are pledged, there is no cost, and the chief clerk is a gold-eating Pixiu, if there is money to be made, it can be sold cheaply."

Li Jiu nodded after hearing this, and understood what Bian Qing meant. Bian Qing almost told him directly that if he secretly gave some money to the chief clerk and made his personal pockets bulge, he could buy the iron mother on the account at a very low price.

It is extremely difficult for a person with Bian Qing's personality to say such a thing.

"The goods pledged by the government? Where are they pledged from?"

"Have you heard of the Qinglongshan Mine?"

"I have heard a little bit about it."

The Qinglongshan Mine is the largest mine in the eastern part of the Tianyuan Dynasty, with various mineral veins intersecting inside. It is said that there is a red blood phoenix gold vein in the central area. The red blood phoenix gold is a metal of extremely high quality. The weapons forged from it contain fire energy, and holding a weapon is like the help of a red phoenix.

Most warriors dream of getting a weapon made of red blood phoenix gold!

The ancestral weapon of the Bai family in Qinghe County was mixed with a little red blood phoenix gold, which attracted a large number of thieves to sneak into the Bai family and try to steal the weapon.

As a result, all the thieves were killed by the Bai family, but they still couldn't suppress the greed of the thieves for the ancestral weapons of the Bai family. Until now, there are still news of thieves sneaking into the Bai family and being killed from time to time.

"A big thing happened in the Qinglongshan Mine. All the strong men of the Zhuxie Division who were guarding there disappeared, and some death row prisoners escaped in the chaos. This matter alarmed the imperial court and ordered all cities to search for the escaped death row prisoners.

A group of death row prisoners disguised as merchants brought ore stolen from the mine to Qinghe County for sale. As soon as they entered the city gate, they were recognized. The city defense army and the constables joined forces to suppress them and put them in jail. The ore was taken by the government, and only 500 kilograms were recorded in the account." Bian Qing said slowly.

Bai Yu ran over with a box in his arms, "Boss, I found the title deed."

There were two titles in the box, one for this house, and the other for the inner city. The house was not big, with only one room.

But that was the inner city! Not to mention that every inch of land was worth a lot of money, its price was far higher than the outer city!

The outer city of Qinghe County was completely different from the inner city. The outer city was relatively chaotic, and most of the residents were ordinary people. The Black Fox Gang and the Fubo Gang were all stationed in the outer city.

The inner city is where the wealthy merchants, warriors, and family children live. Soldiers patrol the streets and the order is in good order. If there is trouble in the inner city, the criminals will be suppressed by the soldiers within an incense stick.

"Can these two deeds, plus three gold cakes, be exchanged for that batch of iron mothers?" Li Jiu picked up the two deeds and glanced at them without greed.

"This house can only be sold for 300 taels at most. The house in the inner city is too small, but the location is okay. It can be sold for 500 taels, and it is still not enough with three gold cakes."

"Wait, Xia Qiu has a yard. I will go to confiscate his house later. I should be able to collect a few hundred taels." Bai Yu suddenly said.

Li Jiu waved his hand and motioned Bai Yu to lead the way.

The three of them went east all the way, and under Bai Yu's guidance, they found Xia Qiu's yard.

After searching, they found the yard deed and the 250 taels of silver hidden by Xia Qiu.

"It's almost enough. I will visit the chief clerk and there will be news in the next few days." Bian Qing said.

"Bai Yu, send him to heal first." Li Jiu said casually.

Bai Yu supported Bian Qing, "There is a clinic not far ahead, let's go there to heal."

"I can still do it."

As soon as he finished speaking, Bian Qing's face suddenly changed, and his facial features wrinkled.

Bai Yu retracted the finger that was poking Bian Qing's wound, "You call it being able to do it? Your mouth is harder than your bones."

Bian Qing grinned, "I poked your wound! You do the same!"

"I don't have any wounds." Bai Yu shrugged.

After arranging Bai Yu and Bian Qing to leave, Li Jiu went to the headquarters of the Black Fox Gang. He did not go to the Juyi Hall to find Deputy Gang Leader Qiao first, but went to the martial arts room first.

When Wang Guanshi saw Li Jiu, he just opened his mouth and smelled the blood on Li Jiu's body, "What are you doing here?"

"To collect funeral money." Li Jiu said calmly.

Manager Wang was startled, "Another death in the gang? Why didn't I hear the news?"

"Just died."

"Is the Fubo Gang so bold? They dare to send demons to kill our people in broad daylight?"

"Almost."

Li Jiu threw out a bloody cloth bag.

Manager Wang opened the cloth bag and took two steps back in shock, "Master Xiang! He's dead!"

"Give me his funeral money!" Li Jiu stretched out his hand.
