Chapter 139 Zhou Dafu
In the morning of the next day, Li Yi and others finally arrived outside Jinling City.
Li Yi first sent twenty cavalrymen from the Xiaoqi Battalion and two Tiger Guards to camp outside the city, and then led Song Beikui and Lao Tu into the city.
"Master, where should we go first? Just burn down the governor's mansion?" Song Beikui was obviously a little excited. Since he followed Li Yi, he was used to this domineering style of doing things. Now he was almost excited at the thought of burning down the governor's mansion.
His whole body was shaking - where could there be so many exciting things in the capital?
"Bah..." Li Yi was defeated by Song Beikui's wisdom. He spit on the ground, slowed down his horse, and said helplessly: "Go to Wangjiang Tower first."
"This..." Lao Tu was stunned for a moment, and then cautiously interjected: "Sir, we haven't finished our business yet, and it's not very good for you to go meet your lover. How about - let's burn down the Governor's Mansion before going
…”
"Fart!" Li Yi was interrupted by these two idiots and suddenly became angry - why did I go to meet my lover? This is called tactics, this is called method...
Although the few of them were not very familiar with Jinling, they had been here once. They drove their horses to the foot of Lion Rock, followed the stone path, and arrived in front of Wangjiang Tower with ease.
As soon as I arrived in front of Wangjiang Tower, I saw people coming and going in Wangjiang Tower today. There were many tourists, and there were also many scholars wearing turbans on their heads and scholar's long shirts, wandering around here, looking at the eyes, it seemed
It's just a matter of regret.
Li Yi saw this and couldn't help but chuckle to himself - this Wangjiang Tower is Zhou Dafu's property. Naturally, he would not let such a big tower sit empty waiting for him to live alone. I'm afraid he stayed there for one night last time and this week
Dafu was already in unbearable pain.
I just don’t know—how is Emily doing now?
Thinking of the Western beauty with long brown hair and gradated pupils, Li Yi couldn't help but shook his head. With Zhou Dafu's money-grubbing temperament, how could he let her live here in vain?
Li Yi straightened his robes that were blown by the wind and walked towards the building. As soon as he arrived in front of the door, there were two rich and powerful doormen with cross eyes and said coldly: "Today, Wangjiang Tower is occupied by our young master.
You may wish to take a look at the scenery outside the building, and come back to the building to have a bar someday!"
"Is it covered?" Li Yi was stunned. The young master of this family really has a lot of background. He even booked the most luxurious restaurant in Jinling?
It's all right, Li Yi doesn't care, the key is - Emily has been waiting for him in the building.
Thinking of this, he raised his eyebrows and asked noncommittally: "May I ask, is Miss Emily in the building?"
"What Emily?" A doorman was stunned for a moment, and then he seemed to think of something. He frowned and said indifferently: "You don't care who is in there, you can't get in today anyway!"
Li Yi frowned and was about to force his way in, but saw two people walking out of the door talking and laughing.
It's a coincidence that Li Yi knew both of them - one of them was so fat that he was out of breath when walking. He was wearing fine silk clothes that were obviously custom-made by a tailor. He turned out to be Zhou Dafu, the owner of Wangjiang Tower.
.
The other man, with a mustache and a thin figure, is undoubtedly the shopkeeper of Wangjiang Pavilion.
When Li Yi saw these two people, he smiled - I didn't even go to find you, but you came to my door yourself. Dafu, Dafu, you are really not careful enough!
Naturally, he wanted to find Zhou Dafu not only to ask for news about Emily, but also because he was not familiar with the place in Jiangnan. Even if he had a list of thirteen bureaucrats, he would not know where these people were.
Where do you live and what is your job?
Zhou Dafu and the shopkeeper of Wangjiang Tower were chatting and laughing, with their heads lowered and gesturing with their fat fingers. They didn't notice a man in green robes in front of the door, so when he walked outside, he was tapped on the shoulder.
At that time, I was shocked.
"Who!" Zhou Dafu turned around suddenly and saw the appearance of the person clearly, and he was almost frightened out of his wits.
"Li, Li, Li..." He caught a glimpse of the two guards behind Li Yi. He had already subdued his bodyguards. At this moment, he had done some "unfortunate things" and couldn't speak smoothly. He opened his mouth again and again.
He said three words "Li".
"Big rich!" Li Yi put his arms around Zhou Dafu's neck affectionately, got closer, and said pleasantly: "I haven't seen you in the past few days. Are you rich again?"
"Sir..." Zhou Dafu's plump face was dripping with cold sweat. From his sources, he naturally knew that Li Yi had gone to Songjiang County, and God knows whether he would die there...
But now, this guy is standing next to me alive and kicking...
"Come on, this Wangjiang Tower is occupied today, let's talk somewhere else?" Li Yi asked for advice with a smile.
How could Zhou Dafu dare to refuse? He was just a wealthy businessman, not even an official. How could he dare to refuse the imperial envoy from the capital in front of him? At this moment, he was pushed by Li Yi and followed the three of them down the mountain with a look of helplessness.
As for his two bodyguards? They had already been knocked over by Lao Tu's old fist and thrown into the grass.
Several people went down the mountain and got on Zhou Dafu's carriage. The coachman didn't know it yet, so he turned around and asked with a smile: "Grandpa, where are we going now? Back home or..."
"Go, go to my village in the west of the city!" Zhou Dafu looked back at Li Yi, then forced out a smile and said sarcastically.
…
…
"Oh, sir, I really don't dare anymore!" As soon as the carriage stopped, Zhou Dafu's fat body immediately squeezed out of the carriage. He stood in front of the tall mansion gate with a big mouth and waved his hand.
: "Next time, I will never be greedy for money..."
Li Yi leaned out of the carriage with a smile. Zhou Dafu looked simple and honest, but he was actually a shrewd man. How could he not know that he had something else to do with him?
While Zhou Dafu winked and cried and begged for mercy, the driver in front of him saw something was wrong and was about to dismount his horse and run away. However, Song Beikui grabbed the collar of his coat and stood there dumbfounded.
Li Yi walked over with a smile and comforted him: "Dafu, you are worrying too much. I am just catching up with you. Why should you be so worried?"
"Oh!" Zhou Dafu squeezed his fat face, looking like he suddenly realized something. Then he rolled his eyes, turned around and rushed into the door...
"You want to run?" Li Yi was stunned. He really admired the perseverance and IQ of this wealthy businessman. Could it be that he thought he could outrun the three martial arts guys behind him with his weight of more than 200 kilograms?
Song Beikui knocked the coachman unconscious with a casual slap, and immediately threw the coachman into the carriage, and followed Li Yi into the open door.
As soon as the three of them entered the door, Li Yi suddenly frowned. Looking at the fat figure running along the corridor in front of him, he vaguely felt that something was wrong with the scene in front of him.
