Like smuggling salt, but the goods sold are more extensive, mostly strictly controlled by the government, and it is difficult for civilians to obtain them. With the principle of "having a rare commodity to live on", they can sit on the ground and raise prices.

  At this time, three people came to the door, although they did not directly say that the master behind the Wàng Qiū Lóu curtain was a smuggler, they had already confirmed that he was connected with smugglers.

  Mozi didn't do it for Qiu San Niang, but rather for his own sake, he had to deny it after all.

  "This is wrong. What flowing water and autumn frost, you didn't say I wouldn't know at all. In my opinion, the short swords worn by the guards in Wang Qiulou are almost the same. I'm afraid it's a misunderstanding." Die before admitting.

  "Then you call people over and let's ask them!" His voice was like a thunderclap on a calm day, and Shi Tou's momentum was overwhelming.

  "Luozhou's various businesses are thriving. In your opinion, the Autumn Frost Sword can only be passed through official merchants' hands, but that doesn't necessarily mean it can't be bought or sold. A family rises and falls, good things fall into the hands of ordinary people, and those with fate get them, is that a crime punishable by death?" Mozi wasn't foolish, of course, he wouldn't say something that would leave no room for maneuvering.

  "Grandma's, you've said it all!" Stone Brother puffed out his chest and glared, slamming the table with a bang.

  The wine jug jumped twice, and more than half of the wine in the cup that had just been poured by someone splashed out onto a piece of dark blue tablecloth with a pattern of purple flowers.

  Cen Er was originally feeling guilty for his own brother, and the big stone let out a fierce roar. Although he tried not to show his surprise, his eyes darted back and forth, sometimes looking at the person in front of him, sometimes looking at Mozi, his mind restless.

  He glanced at him with a pleased expression, his thick eyebrows raised, "Little brother, you're quite calm, unfortunately others aren't like you." The hand placed on the table lifted its index finger.

  Mo Zi Shun glanced over, and suddenly Cen Er's usual cleverness was gone. His face looked guilty, his eyes darting back and forth, and sweat appeared on his forehead. It's true that brothers care about each other, but when they worry, they become flustered.

  She smiled warmly on her face, while under the table she kicked Cen Er with her foot, telling him to cheer up.

  "A straightforward and honest person, suddenly being pulled into the crime of smuggling goods, is so inexplicable, it's not surprising to be shocked." After finishing speaking, Mozi stood up, smoothed out her clothes and left.

  Are you leaving? Erlang's eyes shone brightly and stretched wide.

  Cen Er realized that his own loss of composure had caused the other party's strong pressure, and he regretted it repeatedly. Following Mo Zi getting up, but seeing her calm and composed expression, unaffected by the wind and rain, he couldn't help but feel ashamed. The other party also didn't know where she came from, but judging from her appearance, she seemed to have an air of arrogance like a noble official, and after using both soft and hard tactics to say a few words, she actually made him not dare to look straight at her. But Mo Ge, who was clearly 5 or 6 years younger than him, remained calm and composed in the face of trouble. Who would have thought that such a demeanor came from a woman?

  "Although the three of them had a misunderstanding, since they've come, let's just make do. The dishes at Wangjiu Tower may not be the best in the world, but they're definitely among the top few. Let's eat and then head back afterwards. I don't have the authority to invite guests, but asking for a discount from the cashier is still possible." She wanted others to treat her to dinner before she left.

  His name is Cen Er.

  Cen Er replied in a row, saying eight points at the same time, shaking the bell to call the partner to come and order for the guest.

  Mei Zi pushed the door open with both hands, and in the blink of an eye, a gap had already been pulled out.

  Zhang An wanted to stand up and persuade him to stay. Shi Tou's eyes were wide open like bronze bells, the veins on his forehead bulged out, and he was about to slam the table and scold his mother. But in the end, neither of them moved.

  Because Erlang spoke up.

  "If you tell me the way to cross the river, I'll definitely reward you with a large sum of money." Not seeking anything in return, as long as the amount is sufficient. "Moreover, what you say, I guarantee will not leave this room, nor will it cause any trouble for you or your master, just - you know and I know."

  Her purple dress paused for a moment, and in an angle where no one could see, she made a ghostly face and stuck out her tongue. Turning back, her eyes narrowed into lines, "A reward of ten taels of silver?"

  Zhong An smiled and said, "Who says you can't mention past events?"

  Er Lang saw her stop in her tracks, and he was even more convinced that his thoughts were not wrong. This guy, even if he had nothing to do with the smuggled goods, knew how to make connections.

  "Alright, bring it over." He tapped on the table.

  Zhang An took out a stack of silver bills from his bosom and placed one on the table.

  "This is one hundred and twenty taels." Er Lang stared straight at Mozi, his playful expression gone, sharp and tough. "As long as you agree, I can give it to you immediately. If you're willing to help us make some arrangements beforehand, I can add another hundred taels. Two hundred taels of silver, all you need to do is sell a piece of information. This time, isn't that enough?"

  He thought she didn't want ten taels of silver last time because it was too little? Mozi suddenly retracted his oily smile, becoming completely clean and tidy.

  "Yes, I really think it's too little. Otherwise, give me a thousand taels to try?" Under this strict hierarchical system, she wanted to say, having money is not enough!

  "Alright, kid, let's stop here. With this body of yours, I can send you to see the Western Buddha with just one finger." Stone Brother roared.

  "I wanted to accept, but you won't let me. She had just been very polite and was about to leave, 'Everyone says you're misunderstanding us, we're honest people doing food business. If you really don't believe it, go report to the authorities then. And yet, you bring up a large sum of money as compensation. I'd like to take this silver. Who doesn't love free things? Two hundred taels is enough for me to start my own business, buy a small house, and live a good life. It's just that, I don't know how to cross the river without taking the official document, nor can I deceive you with lies. Later on, if you report me to the authorities, it will implicate my master and get myself into trouble. Two hundred taels, can you guarantee my safety?"

  "It's... It can't be helped, this sturdy man has a bad temper, arguing with him is useless."

  "That's enough. I see that none of you are short of money, so just go to the government office and pay for the permit properly. Why take risks to save a little money?" In the end, Mozi still advised people to do good.

  Turned around, his foot stepped out of the door three inches.

  "The reward can be negotiated." The pleasant and clear voice was soothing to the ear, "Two days later at this time, I will still be in Wang Qiulou. You have time to consider carefully. What I said before is absolutely true, you know and I know that whether it succeeds or not, it won't involve the government. If your news is true, even if we can't get across the river, I won't pursue or ask for silver. In any case, it's a risk-free deal for both of you."

  This time, Mozi didn't turn around.

  Cen Er caught up from behind, wiping the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve, "These few people are too troublesome."

  Mozi didn't make a sound, but she agreed with Cen Er. However, her unintentional small movement was enough to prompt Cen Dalang's waist sword to come straight up, almost exposing everything.

  "Should I report to the master?" The original intention was not to report, but now because of the other party's unusual behavior, Cen Er found it difficult to make a decision. Thinking that they would still come again in the future, his scalp felt numb.

  "I'll go back and report. It's because of the other person's sharp eyes, can't blame others." This is a big deal, she has to tell Qiū Sān Niáng about it.

  "Otherwise, it's good to make a profit from them. I think that person is telling the truth about keeping secrets, it doesn't seem like a lie." Xun Erzhuren, the accountant, was sensitive to money.

  "Smuggling goods is a serious crime, how can you easily believe those who are unknown and untrustworthy?" Mu Zi was extremely cautious about this matter.

  "Mo Ge, shall I send someone to investigate?" Xun Er thought of using some methods to understand the other party's situation.

  "The first one is the son of the King's Guard, Wei Niangzi, who came from the Upper Capital. I'm afraid your subordinates won't be able to escape his eyes, forget it." Mo Zi had some idea about the identity of the Second Master, but not quite.

  "Are you also going to the Wang's mansion? My mother is there." Xun Er said in a strange tone.
