Chapter 305 You are such an idiot!
"Nothing will happen to him, right?" Ren Hao put down the knife in his hand and his expression suddenly became serious.
Although he also hated Su Ergou, he was his brother-in-law after all.
"This……"
"Well, I'll tell you the truth. Something did happen to your brother-in-law Su Ergou." Lin Yi sighed and told the truth.
When they were passing through the Gobi Desert, they encountered sandstorms. After the sandstorm settled, when they counted the number of people, they found that Su Ergou had been separated from the team. They searched for him for a long time but couldn't find him.
They had no choice but to give up Su Ergou and continue on their journey.
When Ren Hao heard this, he suddenly frowned.
Only half of Linyi’s words can be believed, and the other half cannot be believed.
It was true that Su Ergou got separated from them, but it was definitely false that they went back to look for Su Ergou.
After all, these businessmen and bandits are profit-oriented and not so loyal.
The way Ren Hao frowned also made Lin Yi feel nervous.
If Ren Hao ever blamed him, he wouldn't be able to bear it.
"Ren Sikong, I... I really sent someone back to find your brother-in-law. If you... if you don't believe me, you can ask my retainer Tiehu." Lin Yi pointed at the scarred man sitting opposite him.
It was the first time that Tiehu saw Lin Yi so nervous and a little scared.
You have to know that the impression this old man gave him was that he was fearless, with a sinister and ruthless look behind his smiling face.
Is this so-called shitty Sikong really that scary?
It looks exactly like a skinny dog.
"My master was right. We did go back to look for your brother-in-law."
"The scar on my face was caused by a conflict with one of the tribes when I was looking for your brother-in-law." Tiehu pointed to the cut on his left cheek.
"never mind."
"Life and death are determined by fate, wealth and honor are determined by God." Ren Hao waved his hand and did not pursue the matter any further.
If Su Ergou really had to die in the Western Regions, that was God's will.
Seeing that Ren Hao did not pursue the matter, Lin Yi finally felt relieved.
When Ren Hao and the old pavilion chief went out to find a toilet, Tiehu asked in confusion: "Master, is this bullshit Sikong you are talking about really that capable? I see you flatter him everywhere and even fear him."
"I remember that you are not such a person. Even when facing the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue in the Wei Dynasty, you would still not give him face as long as your interests were not in your favor." Tiehu continued.
"That Minister of Revenue is nothing but a dog that wags its tail to ask for bones. He has received so many benefits from us, but he has not actually helped us. Why?"
"As for Ren Sikong, you have to behave yourself and stop being disrespectful. We will rely on him to make money and sell stolen goods in the future. He is our source of wealth, do you understand?" Lin Yi taught Tiehu a lesson in a serious tone.
"Hmph, after all, it's just a dog with some abilities." Tiehu still didn't take it seriously.
"You are such an idiot."
"We can make money from him and sell stolen goods, all because he is willing to do us a favor."
"Do you know that Maozi Restaurant is his property?" Lin Yi slapped Tiehu's head hard.
"what!!!"
"That's actually his property." Tiehu's eyes widened.
"What do you think? Be more respectful and polite to me next time, and don't annoy him."
"He has achieved the position of Minister of Revenue at such a young age. Do you think he is the waste you said?" Lin Yi glared at Tiehu and did not continue what he was saying.
He suddenly felt that Princess Rouyue was let go by Ren Hao on purpose, perhaps wanting to take advantage of this opportunity to have the best of both worlds.
But if he just wanted to have the best of both worlds, he would definitely go with Princess Rouyue. How could he end up becoming someone else's pawn?
Was it because I was overthinking it or was it really as he said?
I can’t figure it out, I can’t figure it out.
Forget it, I still don’t want to.
Anyway, things have come to this, it’s more important to save your life.
Lin Yi picked up the wine bowl and took a big gulp. Anyway, as long as Ren Hao could help him sell all the goods, even if he gave him 50% of the profit, this trip would still be a sure win.
After Ren Hao and the old pavilion chief came back, Lin Yi stood up and said, "Ren Sikong, you and this friend must be tired. I have someone arrange two guest rooms for you. You can have a good rest later."
"Thank you very much." Ren Hao nodded and didn't bother to be polite with Lin Yi.
However, just when the two were about to leave with Lin Yi, the door of the guest room was suddenly kicked open, and Ma Min walked in with more than a dozen Minglan guards.
Tiehu realized that something was wrong and subconsciously drew the scimitar from his waist.
But before he could draw his scimitar, the guards put their scimitars on Tiehu's neck.
Tiehu immediately let go.
"Wasn't you very majestic when you drew your sword just now? Show me how majestic you are again." Ma Min walked up to him, raised his hands and slapped Tiehu twice in the face.
Tiehu just spat out a mouthful of blood with a look of dissatisfaction on his face, and didn't say anything.
He still knows that a real man can bend and stretch.
Ma Min’s master walked in at this time.
After he learned from Ma Min that the cash cow had been stolen, he didn't even bother to line up to see the man. He just borrowed some guards through his connections and came over.
"It seems like you and I have never interfered with each other. Boss Lin, what do you mean by stealing my mouth this time?" The Hu boss sat on the chair next to him and looked at Lin Yi.
Lin Yi glanced at Ren Hao with resentment. Although he did not say anything, his eyes seemed to speak. It seemed as if he was asking Ren Hao, "Were you sold to him?"
Ren Hao nodded.
"Brother Hake, this... there seems to be some misunderstanding." Lin Yi smiled awkwardly and explained to the Hu boss in Hu language. It was obvious that he was so cautious because he didn't want to offend the other party.
The old pavilion chief next to him also quietly translated the words to Ren Hao.
"Misunderstanding, tell me what kind of misunderstanding it is? Not only did you steal my voice, but you also allowed your followers to humiliate my followers." Huck smiled coldly.
"This guy of yours is a friend of mine. If you can let him go, I am willing to compensate you for your losses." Lin Yi smiled apologetically.
After all, this is the territory of the Hu people, and Hake is a very powerful merchant bandit among the Hu people, and he has connections everywhere in the Western Regions.
"As the price for humiliating my retainers, half of your goods must belong to me, and I must take these two porters away." Huck put forward the conditions and pointed at Ren Hao and the old pavilion chief.
