Half an hour later, the short man woke up slowly and stared at the ceiling for a moment.

Thinking that not only did he not get the wolf, but now he also lost the original monkey.

He sat up suddenly and shouted, "We were cheated!"

"Their original intention was to buy our monkeys!"

Goatee and the short man searched around the backyard and found that the house was already empty.

They chased them outside the inn again, but until now, there was still not even half a person in sight.

Goatee was so angry that he ran to the counter and asked the innkeeper, "That man, a woman and four children who live in the backyard, where are they?!"

The boss said slowly, "Let's go, leave early in the morning."

"They are probably leaving the city now."

After all, they are all customers in his own store. The boss asked with concern, "What do you want to do with them?"

"If you lose something, the Yamen is not far north of this street."

"While we're at it now, report to the officials and ask the Yamen Qingqi to dispatch. Maybe we can catch him back."

Goatee had a bad temper and immediately beat the counter and said, "Yes, they lied to us, I want to report it to the official!"

"Wait." A gentle voice stopped him.

The man came over and turned out to be a young man with a fair face and no beard.

He has a handsome appearance, with long eyebrows and a pair of thin phoenix eyes underneath.

When he smiled, his phoenix eyes narrowed, and his smile was friendly, but it was hard to tell what he was thinking in his heart.

This person is the only companion among the three who has not yet appeared.

The man with phoenix eyes raised his hands to the boss and said, "This was just a small misunderstanding. We didn't intend to report it to the official and cause trouble to the boss."

He then faced the people eating in the lobby and smiled and cupped his hands, "Let everyone laugh. Let's continue eating and we won't disturb you."

The short man and the goatee stood there, somewhat reluctantly.

The man with phoenix eyes walked towards the two of them and said in a voice that only the three of them could hear clearly:

"Don't think I don't know that you still have gold given by others in your arms."

"Since the money and goods have already been settled, it is a legal transaction."

"If you want to blame, you can only blame yourselves for being stupid!"

The short man with the goatee looked shocked.

One of them is named Zhang Lin and the other is Chen Biao. They came from their hometown together to make a living.

Because the land in their village is barren and there is little arable land, many young people choose to leave their hometown and support themselves by learning other crafts.

Zhang Lin and Chen Biao learned how to tame animals from several jugglers.

The two men were ambitious and headed north with the golden monkey they had captured, preparing to go to the capital to make a lot of money.

They made money by performing monkey tricks along the way.

Unfortunately, the monkeys were not very cooperative and their management was not legal. At first, they could not even make enough money to eat.

The man with phoenix eyes was not originally the same as them.

He calls himself Jiang Song.

Just because they met halfway, Jiang Song helped them come up with some good ideas and made a lot of money.

In order to make more money, they plotted to recruit Jiang Song into the gang.

Jiang Song also readily agreed.

The short man and Goatee did not discuss the monkey sale with Jiang Song out of selfish motives.

Because the monkey was caught by the two of them.

The gold threads they obtained were also divided among them privately and hidden on their bodies.

But they never expected how Jiang Song knew about gold?

Zhang Lin and Chen Biao were shocked, doubtful, and even guilty. Their eyes flickered and they dared not speak.

A hint of imperceptible contempt flashed in Jiang Song's eyes.

He took two more steps back and said in a loud voice, "It is the law of this dynasty that if you are found to be falsely accused and it results in a wasted trip to the Yamen, you will be slapped with twenty boards and thrown into jail for five days."

"Don't you want to taste this bitter fruit for yourself?"

Zhang Lin and Chen Biao suddenly shuddered.

They all said in unison, "We will not report to the official!"

After saying that, the two of them lowered their heads and followed Jiang Song back to the backyard.

After returning to the house, Zhang Lin said dejectedly, "The monkeys are all gone."

"Why should we perform a sideshow in the capital?"

Chen Biao had a bad temper and immediately slapped the table and said, "Let me see, there is no chance anyway, why don't we break up and go home!"

He and Zhang Lin were from the same hometown.

They had all divided the gold before, but by saying these words now, it was clear that only Jiang Song was left alone.

Jiang Song narrowed his eyes slightly and smiled instead of angry, "Don't you really want to go to the capital?"

"Don't you want to make a lot of money and impress those in the village who look down on you?"

Zhang Lin looked away, not daring to look at Jiang Song, "But now there is nothing."

"It's useless to go to the capital. I heard that food and accommodation in the capital are expensive."

"When we go to the capital, we don't have a way to make a living. We won't be able to beg for food in the end!"

Jiang Song smiled, his smile as warm as the spring breeze.

"Do you two think so? Have you both decided?"

The two looked at each other and nodded.

There was a loud "bang" sound.

Zhang Lin and Chen Biao were both startled. When they turned around to look, it was Jiang Song who slapped the table.

In the past, every time the money was distributed unevenly, Zhang Lin and Chen Biao took the big share and gave Jiang Song the small share.

Jiang Song always had a talkative and smiling face, as if he had no temper at all.

But at this moment, Jiang Song stared at them with gloomy eyes, his expression was very scary.

"You promised me to come to the capital."

"Where are you now? You want to get rid of me."

"Do you know what happened to the last person who betrayed me?"

Zhang Lin asked blankly, "What?"

Jiang Song smiled, his smile was terrifying, "He died, was thrown into a mass grave, and was eaten by vultures."

Zhang Lin and Chen Biao screamed, hugging each other and trembling in fear.

Although they had not seen it with their own eyes, they had no doubts about the authenticity of what Jiang Song said.

Jiang Song put on a friendly smile again, "What are you afraid of? How could I be willing to do anything to you?"

"We are partners. I will ensure that you go to the capital to make a fortune. I will definitely keep my word."

"Besides, it seems that family is also going to the capital today."

"If you meet them in the capital, you might have a chance to take revenge."

Zhang Lin and Chen Biao gradually forgot their fear.

Go to the capital and make a fortune, Jiang Song also promised to ensure that they make a fortune!

The two looked at each other and smiled greedily.

Jiang Xiaohua's mule cart was almost out of the city gate.

She took one last look back to make sure no one was chasing her.

Li Yuanzhi also looked at it and asked, "What are you worried about?"

Jiang Xiaohua muttered, "I always feel like there's something wrong with that animal trainer."

Li Yuanzhi smiled and said, "One has an explosive temper and has no brains, and the other thinks he is smart. They are both people who can be seen through at a glance. What's wrong?"

Jiang Xiaohua looked at Li Yuanzhi, "I'm not talking about them."

"It's the third person."

"I gave the goatee gold thread, and he and the short man separated on the spot,"

"They probably don't want the third person in the room to know about the monkey sale."

"But I clearly saw that the window of that house moved. Someone must have been peeking."
