I was Idle and Cool Chapter 118: A little clue

"Madam, my subordinates have sent people out to inquire again as you ordered."

After returning to the inn, He Xing made arrangements according to what Lu Jinxi had said before, and came up again to report to her.

At this time, she was sitting upstairs by the window, opening the window a narrow slit. So the sky light was squeezed into a narrow gap, and it came in from the outside and reflected in her eyes.

There are people coming and going outside, and the noises are also coming in.

Hearing He Xing's voice, she didn't look back, but just frowned and thought.

He Xing didn't rush, just stood there.

After a while, Lu Jinxi said: "Before I left the capital, I had already sent someone to Baoding to meet Sheng Xuan. Although there is a dispute between the north and the south of Shenglongchang, we didn't expect it. Besides, it’s better to get things done as soon as possible.”

She's not really a businessman after all.

This time, Sheng Xuan may have prepared enough time, but in the eyes of others, Lu Jinxi is probably still lighting incense at the Zen temple.

It's been a long time in Baoding, and going back too late will inevitably lead to some unnecessary incidents.

Lu Jinxi is not afraid of trouble, but if you can avoid trouble, you can avoid it.

She slowly withdrew her gaze from the street, got up directly, and let Qingque serve the pen and ink. After picking up the pen, she wrote a simple letter, and then sealed it and handed it to He Xing.

"I also need you to make a trip in person and hand over this letter to Second Master Sheng, which means that you will meet him tomorrow."

These words greatly exceeded He Xing's expectations.

He took the letter, but he frowned subconsciously, and said hesitantly, "Madam, now the North and South Shenglongchang is making a fuss, I'm afraid it's hard to say what will happen in the future. You haven't waited for this thing yet. Once I figured it out, I decided to meet with the other party first, and if we talk about it and then change again, wouldn't it be a waste of time?"

"Don't I believe in your eldest son?"

Lu Jinxi laughed and said half-truth.

"Sheng Longchang is not a small matter, but it is not a big deal. I still believe in the way your son sees people. It is related to his political achievements, and he will not dare to cheat me. .You just send the letter, it's not your fault if something goes wrong. Don't worry."

Can't blame him?

What's he worried about?

He Xing had already slandered a few words when he heard Lu Jinxi's completely unimportant remarks, but after thinking about it, he felt that her remarks were mostly a joke, with a little deep meaning hidden in it.

In other words, he is also a smart person who mixes with his eldest son. After thinking about it for a while, how can he make this decision without any consideration of interests?

It's just that although He Xing is not stupid, he is not at the point where he can guess people's hearts at will.

So he didn't think about it at all, obeyed obediently, and delivered the letter.

This day, when Lu Jinxi woke up, it was already noon, and it took some time to go out for a walk, so it is afternoon. She thought that something went wrong with Sheng Longchang, and she was afraid that it would be inappropriate to have an appointment today, so she decided to make it tomorrow.

After He walked, she was not idle.

She had prepared some things when she came, and now let Qingque pick it up from the box, and after thinking for a while, she edited a little on it.

After half an hour, He Xing came back, saying that the letter had been delivered and that he would be on time for the appointment tomorrow.

Lu Jinxi asked, "How do you feel when you see Sheng Xuan?"

He Xing was stunned, and after thinking about it for a while, he replied, "I am not someone who knows how to look at people. I just think this second Master Sheng looks like a very kind person. When I arrived, He is sitting with the shopkeepers of Sheng Longchang, and he seems to be upset about that afternoon."

Are you kind?

This is in line with the previous rumors.

This second Master Sheng should be 33 or 4 years old this year. He is five years younger than his elder brother Sheng Hong. It is said that he liked reading poetry and books when he was young. How did it change.

Of course, the opportunity was also the family change.

From this point of view, it is hard to say why Gu Juefei has such a high opinion of this person; but if this person is willing to get to know Gu Juefei and give him face, it can be easily explained.

Lu Jinxi thought about it carefully, knowing that He Xing said that he didn't know how to look at people, it should be true, so he didn't ask any more, just said: "Yes. Tomorrow morning, make an appointment at Haoyue Building on the opposite street. You can take someone there to get acquainted with you first, just in case."

"Yes."

Even if she didn't say it, He Xing was planning to ask.

After all, Gu Juefei just said something and put Lu Jinxi's safety in his hands, and in Baoding, it is considered unfamiliar with life, so if you go to meet someone who doesn't know much about the basics, he will always ask them to step on the ground first. .

So after taking orders, He Xing went to work again.

As for the people who previously sent people to Nansheng Longchang and his owner Sheng Hong, and his accountant Chen Wenru, they didn't come back until it was dark.

And brought back some rather spooky news.

"My subordinate, I lost my following..."

The errand was a young man in his twenties. He was tall and thin, and he was very strong. He looked at people with a pair of smart eyes.

But at this time, there was a rare smirk on his face, and his voice was low.

After a few days, Lu Jinxi already remembered the names of He Xing and his team, and recognized this young man. He knew that his name was Yin Ping, and he was the most alert and sensitive person in their team.

When he was on his way, he could detect the falcon flying in the distance.

It can be said that He Xing sent him to inquire about the news.

But now, he actually said he lost it?

Lu Jinxi was startled.

He Xing stood aside, his brows furrowed even more, his voice was a little higher, and he felt incredible: "Who did you go with, how could you lose it?"

"I, I..."

Yin Ping murmured a few times, but his heart was actually full of anger.

"Who else can I talk to? I just found out what Sheng Hong's residence is, and before I went there, I saw that Mr. Sheng Hong accompanied Sheng Hong, and a scribe in a long gown came out of the alley. I watched That Sheng Hong was quite respectful to this man, so he wanted to go to the bottom of it, but he didn't expect that there were a few powerful people around him."

A scribe in a gown?

If Yin Ping hadn't mentioned the accountant before, Lu Jinxi would have almost thought he was talking about the accountant Chen Wenru they had met before.

But listen now, obviously not.

Respectful to this person...

Could it be that there is something tricky behind this Nansheng Longchang?

She frowned slightly and continued, "They found you and you got dumped?"

"This, don't laugh at me, I don't even know if they found me." Yin Ping felt very frustrated, "Anyway, when he came out of the alley, the scribe took three people to the street. After walking around for a while, I looked around and couldn't find anyone."

He Xing's brows also furrowed: "Is it so powerful?"

Yin Ping was a little aggrieved and grumbled: "If you don't believe me, go and try it, can I still lie to you?"

It's clear that he's childish.

Lu Jinxi laughed when he heard it, and only comforted him: "We all know your skills, I heard that even in the capital, only the top-ranked sentries in the infantry dragon and tiger camp can compare with you. Get rid of you easily, let you follow the lost person..."

She wanted to say, "It's definitely not a simple person," but when the words came to her mouth, she just blurted out the sentence "Only the top-ranked sentry in the infantry dragon and tiger camp can relate to you. Than", but it hit his mind again like a meteor.

A riot of sparks!

Ordinary people, who would care for a sentry?

Only Yin Ping was not raised by the Grand Master's house either. He was very strong in this way, so Gu Juefei also let him go, and that's how he got what he is today.

But a Nansheng Longchang, a mysterious scribe, actually brought three people with this ability.

Also, Yin Ping couldn't even tell if they found themselves easily. That is to say, they got rid of Yin Ping, maybe they got rid of him after they found him, or maybe...

Just out of cautious habit and instinct.

"Madam, what are you thinking about?"

She stopped just now, halfway through her words, and He Xing looked at it with a bit of solemnity and curiosity.

Lu Jinxi turned around, thought for a moment, then shook his head: "I just think this is not easy. In a place like Baoding, it is rare for our group to appear, and it is strange to see people who are more powerful than us. If something goes wrong, there must be demons. Yin Ping might as well continue to quietly investigate outside these days. In addition to Nan Sheng Longchang and Sheng Hong, pay attention to these four people."

"Yes."

Yin Ping was also a little unconvinced. When he took orders, his voice was crisp, and he was quite determined to reveal the true face of those people.

He Xing also nodded, but then asked: "The details of Nansheng Longchang are unknown now. Tomorrow Sheng Erye, do you want to change the date, postpone it for a few days, and see you when we find out?"

"No." Lu Jinxi shook his head and said categorically, "I'll see you tomorrow morning, I won't change."
