"Goodbye if you are destined to be goodbye." The man ignored the fourth master's anger and smiled at Ruoyin without any comment.

He was busy getting rid of the yamen runners, so he continued to step on the elbows of the craftsmen and walked in the direction behind Ruoyin.

Ruoyin looked back and found that there was a path at the end of her back, which could go directly to the back mountain of the workshop.

So, in the blink of an eye, the man disappeared.

She couldn't help but sigh in her heart that it was already this time, and this person was still leisurely and elegant to chat with her.

It's too rampant and too unwilling to take thousands of yamen runners seriously.

This kind of person is obviously a disciple, and he will say something roguely.

He has been tempted to talk, have he ever thought about causing her trouble?

Seeing that the man successfully escaped from the yamen runners' pursuit, the craftsmen were still dealing with the yamen runners in order to make him leave smoothly.

The Fourth Master had a dark face and returned to the location of the carriage with Ruoyin and Banmei.

After getting on the carriage, the Fourth Master said coldly: "Su Peisheng, find an inn nearby."

"Yes." Twenty thousand craftsmen called Xie, this is not a trivial matter.

The fabrics and silks made in these workshops are not only sold to local people, but also sold to the entire Qing Dynasty.

Even the imperial court and the Thirteenth Francisco had to trade exports.

Let’s not talk about these supply issues.

If 20,000 craftsmen are not comforted, it is easy to cause greater riots.

Today they just gathered together to protest.

Maybe tomorrow, there will be chaos everywhere.

Because many bandits who were arrested in prison had a confession: If you can live a job, don’t be a bandit for now.

If even the servants cannot live a life, the final outcome of these people is likely to be doing something unscrupulous.

Therefore, this matter must be resolved as soon as possible.

Then, the matter of going to Hangzhou will be temporarily relieved.

"In addition, let me investigate the man strictly!" said the Fourth Master.

"Which man?" Su Peisheng was busy fighting with the yamen runners just now, so he didn't pay much attention.

Seeing that Su Peisheng didn't understand, the Fourth Master's face sank.

Fortunately, Banmei came to Su Peisheng's ear and told Su Peisheng.

Su Peisheng was so scared that he immediately responded "Yes".

Workshops are usually opened in relatively remote places, so the price of such locations is cheaper.

Therefore, this area does not belong to the prosperous area of ​​Suzhou.

The inns under Ruoyin’s name are basically opened in relatively prosperous places.

In addition, it is open near the tourist area.

Then, Su Peisheng could only find a slightly accessible inn nearby temporarily.

About half an hour later, the carriage stopped at an inn.

After entering the inn, the furniture, tables and chairs inside were very ordinary.

But fortunately, it is cleaner and hygienic.

It is already very good to find such a place.

There are a lot of people in the lobby, and there are several tables of guests having dinner.

However, in this kind of small place, business is relatively casual and not professional enough.

The guests entered the door and did not come up to greet them.

After Ruoyin and the Fourth Master found a seat to sit down, Su Peisheng and Banmei went to talk to the shopkeeper.

Finally, I booked the best room in this inn.

After the reservation was made, Ruoyin and the Fourth Master went to the room.

Not long after, the waiter put the food and tea on it.

That night, Su Peisheng checked out all the matter and reported to the Fourth Master.

"Your Majesty, I have investigated it. This time the matter was mainly colluded by the local government and the workshop contractor, and the government collected the contractor's money, which concealed the court for this."

After hearing this, the Fourth Master looked slightly.

However, when Su Peisheng didn't continue talking, he looked up at Su Peisheng.

Meeting those inquisitive eyes, Su Peisheng hurriedly continued: "By the way, there is the man you asked the slave to check. His name is Cao Luoyun. He was originally a famous wealthy family in Suzhou. The Cao family was originally a martial arts family and majored in the Cao family Bagua Fist."

"Later, because the family had a change, it declined, and the Cao family was left with only an eight-year-old baby. This Cao Luoyun is the only remaining baby in the Cao family."

"Because of life, he worked as a long-term worker in a textile workshop since he was a child. Because of his talent and smart people, he could repair any machinery as he went on. He stayed in various workshops all year round. Those craftsmen were very familiar with him and called him Master Cao enthusiastically..."

Because the inn's dishes were made relatively salty during supper, Ruoyin drank too much water.

Halfway through hearing this, she pulled Banmei to the cottage.

The thatched cottage is in the backyard on the first floor. After Ruoyin came out of the thatched cottage, she was about to pull Banmei back to the guest room upstairs.

However, at this moment, she heard a rustling sound behind her.

When I turned around, I saw a group of people on the back mountain in the backyard, looking at about a dozen people.

And they drilled down from the cellar one by one.

At first, Ruoyin thought it was the inn's guy who wanted to go to the cellar to get some stored food.

For example, sweet potatoes, rice, beans, etc.

However, when she saw a face in the crowd who had met once, she realized that things might not be as simple as getting food.

Because, she saw Cao Luoyun mentioned by Su Peisheng and the others.

Ruoyin now seriously suspects that it is their base.

However, she adhered to the principle that it was better to do less than when she was away, and wanted to pretend that she didn't see it.

But the location she and Banmei are in is very awkward.

If they were in the cottage, they wouldn't hide out and pretend they didn't see it.

Or they walked through the backyard and went straight upstairs.

But they were in the middle, not just walking or hiding.

Stop there, it is very conspicuous.

After thinking for a few seconds, Ruoyin was still ready to pull Banmei away quickly.

But the two of them were about to leave, and the one named Cao Luoyun saw Ruoyin.

So Ruoyin pulled Banmei and ran faster.

Because he saw that Cao Luoyun did not go to the cellar, he rushed towards the two of them.

Yes, that's right, just rushed over.

That speed was faster than rushing to avoid thousands of yamen runners during the day.

Moreover, Cao Luoyun said fiercely: "Slow down!"

Not only that, those who had just entered the cellar also climbed up one by one.

Ruoyin pulled Banmei to run, thinking, "When it's over, I'm going to be killed."

Cao Luoyun is worthy of being the successor of the Cao family’s Bagua Fist, and he immediately took his people to catch up with Ruoyin.

And surrounded Ruoyin and Banmei.

Banmei opened her mouth and was about to scream, but a woman stepped forward and blocked her mouth with a cotton cloth.

Ruoyin also wanted to open her mouth to attract the Fourth Master and the others, but she was threatened by Cao Luoyun.

"If you don't want her to die, you'd better not yell." As soon as Cao Luoyun finished speaking, the woman took a dagger and pressed it against Banmei's neck.

"Okay, okay, I won't shout, but don't touch her," Ruoyin said.

Seeing that Ruoyin didn't shout loudly, Cao Luoyun put his hand on Ruoyin's shoulder, and the two brothers said with great sincerity: "Beauty, we're meeting again."
