Linze City.

A room in the branch.

Three businessmen were sitting on chairs. Obviously there were cushions on the chairs, so it should be very comfortable to sit on them, but the businessmen felt like they were sitting on pins and needles.

"Have you figured it all out?"

With a smile on his face and his hands in his sleeves, Michu stepped into the house.

"Shopkeeper Mi, are you making things difficult for us? Do you want us to raise those idiots? How can we afford to raise them?"

"Yes, Shopkeeper Mi. It's not that I'm unwilling to contribute. Business has not been very good recently. I can't make ends meet. How can I get so much money?"

"Shopkeeper Mi, please let us go if you have a large amount of money. Our family is a small business and we can't stand the trouble."

The three shopkeepers kept talking all the time, just crying and saying how pitiful they were.

"We are all businessmen, and I know your difficulties. Since you can't make ends meet, and Linze City makes you so uncomfortable, let me think of a way for you. You all leave Linze City and find somewhere else. That's great, maybe.

The timing has turned out!” Mi Xiu was still smiling.

"Leave...leave Linze City?"

The three shopkeepers looked at each other. Their business was basically in Linze City. If they left Linze City, would it be so easy to establish themselves elsewhere? The losses would be huge.

"What, the three friends don't want to do it?"

Mi Xiu said calmly: "If you refuse, our firm will help you move together."

The three of them were hesitant and unwilling to express their stance immediately.

Just when they didn't know how to respond, someone suddenly broke in from outside.

A rough and powerful man, with long arms and legs, he walks with a mighty look.

He held a spherical package in his hand. After striding through the door, he came to Mi Xiu and placed the package in his hand heavily on the table.

"Shopkeeper Mi, the matter is finished, where is the money?"

"Inspect the goods first and make sure they are correct. The money will be yours." Mi Xiu said with a smile on his face.

"Okay, you can see clearly."

The rough man reached out and unknotted the cloth strips on the package, revealing the contents layer by layer.

At this moment, the three shopkeepers widened their eyes and almost screamed.

The thing inside turned out to be a bloody human head, and the dead-eyed face looked quite familiar.

"Yes, this is Gu Gan's head. You did a good job. Take the money."

Michu took out a stack of banknotes and slapped them on the table.

The rough man hurriedly picked up the banknote, dipped his fingers in saliva, and tapped it. His originally gloomy face immediately brightened up with a smile.

"Shopkeeper Mi, please come to me if you have any work in the future. I guarantee that it will be done properly for you." The rough man laughed.

"Shopkeeper Mi, this, is this Gu Gan's head?" At this time, one of the shopkeepers asked tremblingly.

"Yes, if you don't believe it, you can take it and take a closer look." Mi Xiu said.

Look carefully. My mother, after taking a second look, the shopkeepers felt dizzy. When they smelled the smell of blood from time to time, their calves became weak and cramped. They almost slipped off the chair on the spot. How could they take it carefully?

Look.

"Shopkeeper Mi, what crime did Gu Gan commit? Why did he need to be lynched to kill him?"

One of the shopkeepers summoned up the courage to ask.

"I didn't carry out a lynching. I only carried out the execution after consulting the Governor of Chu and obtaining the approval from the imperial court. This Gu Gan refuses to drink wine as a toast, and even the merchants are not willing to pay for him. He dares to collude with imperial criminals.

If you want to frame our trading company, this is the way to die." Mi Xiu said calmly.

"Shopkeeper Mi, these guys are asking all kinds of questions. They are not good people at first glance. Why don't I kill them for you? Just give them a little less money and just give them as much as you want."

The rough man next to him suddenly glanced at the three of them and said loudly.

The three shopkeepers were glanced at by the rough man, and they felt like pigs about to be slaughtered in a slaughterhouse, being targeted by a butcher.

"Shopkeeper Mi, we are willing to donate money. We are willing to donate money. Please spare our lives."

"Yes, we will all donate the money when we sell pot and iron. Shopkeeper Mi has a lot of money. Don't argue with us."

The three of them couldn't bear it anymore and hurriedly begged for mercy.

Then it became much easier to sign the agreement. The three of them just glanced at the agreement casually, ignoring the many clauses that were not beneficial to them, and signed it directly.

When he saw them signing the agreement, the rough man's eyes revealed a bit of regret.

Not being able to kill people means there is no money to take, thank you.

"Song Laoqi, I'll call you if you have another day." Mi Xiu said.

"Okay, Shopkeeper Mi, I'll take my leave now."

Song Laoqi cupped his fists with both hands and said.

"When you go out, take this head with you." Mi Xiu said again.

"Where to take you?" Song Laoqi didn't mind doing more work. After all, the money he just received was much more than what was agreed.

If Mi Xiu was so generous, he wouldn't mind doing whatever he wanted.

"Bring it to Prefect Chu and tell him that the matter is done... By the way, Prefect Chu has a silver reward, go and get it," Mi Xiu said.

Song Laoqi was still a little tired at first, but when he heard that there was actually a silver reward, he instantly became energetic.

"I'll leave right away."

Carrying the package, Song Laoqi strode away.

The three shopkeepers finally left the branch of Yang's Trading Company and came to the door. The three of them looked at each other with lingering fears.

"I have heard about Song Laoqi for a long time. It is said that in the nearby arena, Song Laoqi is a famous butcher who works for money and kills people without blinking an eye."

"Didn't he say that Song Laoqi wouldn't kill seven of them? Women, children, and good people he wouldn't kill."

"Yes, there is such a thing, but even if the rumors in the world are true, we are not going to do anything like that."

"Yes, we all know what we did. Besides, a vicious person like Song Laoqi will definitely kill someone if he takes money. Why does he care about not killing Qi?"

"Yang's Trading Company, they can hire murderers to kill people, can't we? Should we pay that Song Laoqi to make him take action?"

"No, no, we have Yang's Trading Company. Do we have money? Song Laoqi and those people, you are your mother. Whoever has money will go with him, how much should we pay? What should we do if he betrays us backhand? How about...

Let's just pay the money honestly, why should we be enemies with Yang's Trading Company?"

After some analysis, the three shopkeepers sighed and got into the carriage one after another, preparing to go home.

They don't know that everything they say and do will fall into the eyes of some people.

"Are the three of them still honest?"

Looking at the spy who reported back, Mi Xiu took a sip of tea and asked.

"I feel unwilling to do so, but in the end I am still ready to fulfill the contract," the spy said.
