Tie Kui Extra Story (75)

Knowing that Ning Zhan is the eldest son of Uncle Anyang's mansion, the shopkeeper immediately knelt on the ground and begged for mercy: "My eldest son, I will give you the little one, and you can take it away with you." People who do business are relatively well-informed. The son of Uncle Anyang is not only the legitimate son of Uncle Anyang's mansion, but also deeply loved by the empress and empress, and has a very good relationship with the princes. He didn't dare to offend such a person, if he didn't offend him, let alone smashed his shop, even if he was killed, no one would dare to say a word.

It's only because of his stupid eyesight, he just thinks that the young masters and ladies of this kind of official family are stupid people with a lot of money and easy to coax. Unexpectedly, Uncle Anyang's eyesight is so good.

The one who sewed the tiger skin was an old hunter in his fifties. This old man has been hunting for more than 30 years, and he can no longer hunt when he is too old, so he earns money to support his family by peeling fur.

Seeing the old hunter kneeling on the ground in fear, Ning Zhan said, "My family also has a fur shop, and there are often damaged leathers. I just want to hire you to do things for us. If you don't want to, I won't force it." The leather that came up, in addition to the long-distance wear and tear, there are also precious but incomplete ones. If an old hunter is invited, these worn and precious leathers can be repaired. Even if the price is cheaper than the complete one, it is still a profit. But the old man is not a slave, but a commoner who comes here to make a living, so he naturally cannot force him.

The old hunter also knew that leaning against a big tree would provide shade, but she still asked, "I have two grandchildren in my family. I don't know if they will go to the capital with me?" of.

The old hunter's wife left twenty years ago. His son died of illness three years ago and his daughter-in-law remarried. Now he leaves two grandchildren with him.

"Yes. As long as you are willing to go to the capital, I will give you a salary of twenty taels of silver a month, and I will arrange a place for you to live in. If you do a good job, your salary will increase." Such a good craftsmanship is worth the price .

The old hunter was very pleasantly surprised: "I am willing, I am willing." Here, he only earns twenty taels of silver in one year. Now they can earn so much in a month. With this money, they can not only support their grandparents and grandchildren, but also save money for their grandsons to marry their wives.

Ning Zhan brought the three of them back to the General's Mansion, and sent someone to send them to the capital two days later.

Ning Hai came back and asked Ning Zhan, "You forced the store to sell you a tiger skin at a low price?"

Ru Hui said angrily, "Who is talking nonsense. The store coaxed us with a patchwork of leather, and Ah Zhan found out. Ah Zhan spent one hundred and fifty taels of silver to buy that leather."

Ning Hai has been a hunter himself, so he knows the market of Pi Zi very well. One hundred and fifty taels for a patchwork tiger skin is not cheap. Of course, the store doesn't make much money either.

"When you go out from now on, don't use your family's name." Only dudes would use their family background to scare people.

Ning Zhan smiled and said, "I don't use my family's name, but I won't deliberately hide my identity." It's not that I can't see the light, so why hide my identity.

Ning Hai nodded and didn't say any more.

Xiao was very upset about her son, and muttered at night when she was sleeping: "Zhan'er has always acted properly, and never let us worry about it. What do Zhan'er think when you say this today?"

"I just said that casually." If he was worried about Ning Zhan, he wouldn't let him stay in the capital alone.

Xiao muttered: "Fang Hui and Fang Jia have been by your side to be taught by you, and you also spend some time on Zhan'er. Only Zhan'er has a good heart, otherwise I will be very sad to see you like this." She I feel that my husband is too negligent towards his son.

"I think so too, but I don't have time now, and Ah Zhan will be in the capital again in September." After the snow fell, the war ceased, and he was free. But Ning Zhan will not be in Tongcheng by then.

Xiao hesitated for a while and said, "Or let Ah Zhan stay in Tongcheng."

After hearing this, Ning Hai said: "Ah Zhan said he also wanted to enter the barracks to kill the enemy, but I refused. If I let him stay, I'm afraid I won't be able to stop him in the future."

Shocked, Mrs. Xiao hurriedly said: "Then let him go back to the capital!" She is just such a son, if something happens to her, let her live.

Tongcheng has been fighting constantly, but there have been no large-scale wars in the past two years. Although Ning Zhan couldn't go to the battlefield to fight, he learned a lot from Ning Hai's side.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, Ruhui said to Ning Zhan: "Brother, I'm going back to the capital soon, you should also buy some gifts for the prince and the third prince." She didn't know what the prince and the others liked, so Ning Zhan Pick your own.

Ning Zhan nodded and said, "Okay."

After walking on the street with Ruhui for a day, Ning Zhan did not find any gift for the prince.

Ruhui said: "Don't worry, we'll go shopping tomorrow." Anyway, it's still early to go home, there is still half a month left!

Unfortunately, Ruhui's little day came that night. On the second day, it was inconvenient for her to go shopping again.

Ning Zhan took Shuangrui and two guards out, but the four of them didn't come back until evening.

Xiao's heart was a little uneasy, and hurriedly asked the people in the house to look for it. As a result, the people in the mansion went out and looked around, but they couldn't find Ning Zhan.

Clutching her chest, Xiao said, "Go and call uncle back, and tell him that the prince is gone." She wanted to search the whole city for Ning Zhan, but there were not enough people in the mansion. But to transfer troops, Ning Hai must agree.

During this time, Ning Hai was too busy to touch the ground. He has a lot of business to deal with today, so he is not going to go home tonight.

Ah Shao opened the curtain and walked into the house quickly, and said to Ning Hai: "Uncle, it's not good, the son is gone."

The words that Ning Hai left behind were blurred because of this sentence.

Putting the pen aside, Ning Hai asked eagerly, "Why did the prince disappear?"

A Shao shook his head and said, "I don't know. People from the mansion said that the son hadn't returned home after dark. Madam was worried and sent someone to look for him, but he searched all over the city and found no one."

After returning home, Ning Hai realized that the entourage and two guards following Ning Zhan were gone, and his face was very solemn.

Seeing him like this, Xiao's face turned pale: "Master, master, you must get Ah Zhan back!"

Ning Hai shook Xiao's hand and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely bring Zhan'er back safely."

It's a pity that they searched all over Tongcheng that night, but they couldn't find Ning Zhan. When Ning Hai heard that Ning Zhan was going to the street to buy gifts for others, he asked the officers and soldiers to go to every shop to inquire.

Ah Shao said to Ning Hai: "Uncle, the son finally appeared in the Chaos shop of the Chen family. The owner of the shop said that the son and Shuangshou ate chaos at his house yesterday and left."

Hearing this, Ning Hai felt something was wrong: "Where are Ding Shan and Fu Yiyuan?" These two personal attendants were carefully selected by Ning Hai for Ning Zhan. It can be said that they will never leave Ning Zhan's side even when they go out.

Shao shook his head and said, "I don't know about this subordinate. However, no one has seen him since the prince left Chaos Shop." This is all ruled out according to time.

"The shopkeeper didn't find any suspicious people following Ah Zhan?"

Shao shook his head and said, "No. When the prince left the shop, no one followed him."

Ning Hai unconsciously turned the jade finger on his thumb with both hands, this was his habit. Every time I am nervous or encounter embarrassing things, I will do this action.

"Search for me from house to house, and you must find Ah Zhan." Previously, they only searched the streets and alleys, and did not search inside the house. But now, Ning Hai can't take care of that much anymore.

Ah Shao was a little worried: "General, will the other party kill people to silence them if there is such a big commotion."

Ning Hai said with a sullen face, "No, they will only use Ah Zhan to blackmail me."

Ah Shao's face froze in an instant: "Uncle, do you suspect that Shizi was taken away by Donghu Xizuo hiding in Tongcheng?"

Ning Hai hummed and said, "Aside from them, who else in Tongcheng would dare to touch my Ah Zhan?"

Ah Shao immediately led officers and soldiers to search from house to house. It is necessary to catch the secret work of the Donghu people and rescue the prince.

Xiao Shi heard that Donghu's spy had probably captured Ning Zhan, and immediately passed out.

There was another rush.

Ruhui stayed by Xiao Shi's side all the time, and when she saw her wake up, she hurriedly asked, "Mother, are you feeling better?"

Holding Ruhui's hand, Xiao Shi said, "Ruhui, is your brother back yet? Ruhui, where is your brother? Take me to see him quickly."

When Ruhui heard this, tears were about to fall. However, she quickly forced back the tears: "Mom, Ah Zhan hasn't been found yet. But mother, don't worry, Dad will definitely find Ah Zhan safely."

After hearing this, Xiao's hands and feet were instantly powerless: "Ah Zhan was taken away by the secret agents of the Donghu people. They will use Azhan to force your father, but your father will not compromise." In the face of the country's righteousness, only Sacrifice her Cham. And if there is a compromise, not only will the husband's head fall to the ground, but the entire Ning family will have to be ransacked and exterminated.

If Huimeng is stuck. But soon Ruhui shook her head and said, "Impossible, mother, it's impossible for Ah Zhan to be captured by Donghu's spy."

Xiao raised her head abruptly and said, "How do you know?"

Ruhui said calmly: "Father doesn't only have A Zhan as his son. Without A Zhan, there are Fang Hui and Fang Jia. They can continue the incense of the Ning family. It is the crime of treason, and the whole family of the Ning family will have to be killed. A fool knows how to choose between sacrificing a son and killing the whole family. Donghu people will not take the risk of exposure and do such a stupid thing.”

Xiao Shi also felt reasonable: "Go quickly and tell your father your guess. No, I will go with you."

Helping Xiao to the outside of the main hall, he heard Ashao's deep voice: "Uncle, just now the soldiers at the city gate reported that a carriage left the city two quarters of an hour after the son disappeared. It was an unfamiliar face, and the carriage was stopped for inspection. But there was only a young woman in the carriage, and there was nothing suspicious, so the soldiers guarding the city let it go."

"What's wrong with the carriage?"

Ashao said softly: "The carriage was empty at that time, and there was only a young and thin woman sitting in it. But one soldier found it strange, saying that the marks on the carriage seemed to hold a weight of two to three hundred catties."

Ning Hai's complexion changed, and he asked, "Did you check under the carriage?"

"No." The soldier also waited for the carriage to leave, and when he saw the traces left by the carriage, he muttered casually with a puzzled face, which happened to be heard by the person next to him. That man was a caring person, when he heard that Uncle Anyang was missing, he reported the matter just in case.
