Chapter 31: Weird Things in the Escort Agency (Please Vote and Read On)

A flash of inspiration came to his mind. Staring at the small stool, Xu Bai thought of a way.

Of course, he didn't use the small stool as a hidden weapon directly. It was a foolish act to use such a big stool as a hidden weapon.

From the small stool, he recalled the time when he first paid.

Reaching into his arms, Xu Bai took out two copper coins and weighed them in his hand.

This thing is very suitable as a hidden weapon.

The quality of the copper coins of the Great Chu Kingdom is very good. If it can be used with maple leaves like rain, not only the power but also the concealment can be improved a lot.

As a citizen of Sheng County, it is reasonable for him to carry a bunch of copper coins with him.

"It's feasible!" Xu Bai made up his mind immediately.

The only drawback is that there are not enough copper coins.

But it's not a big problem. He can change it.

The bank can completely solve the problem. The difficulty is that if the number of exchange is too large, it will arouse suspicion.

"How to exchange perfectly?" Xu Bai fell into deep thought.

Just as he was thinking, a voice suddenly rang out.

"Xu... Brother Xu?"

"Hmm?" Hearing the voice, Xu Bai turned around, put his right hand on the ghost-head knife, and looked at the man next to him.

When Xu Bai's eyes swept over and the hand pressed on the ghost-head knife, the man in his twenties shuddered.

"It's me, Brother Xu, I'm Xiao Liu, we came back from the Tiger Village together." Liu Er raised his hand and said quickly.

Xu Bai looked up and down: "The business of the escort agency is not good, and you still have time to go shopping?"

Seeing the other party wearing the clothes of the escort agency, Xu Bai remembered his identity.

Isn't this one of the escorts who came back from the Tiger Village last time.

After returning from the Tiger Village, except for him, the other escorts did not leave and still stayed in the escort agency.

"Alas, since that incident, few people have come to ask for escorts. Brother Xu, you also know that the escort agency has had trouble and its reputation has been lost. The young escort master has been looking for buyers recently." Liu Er sighed.

Xu Bai was just listening for fun, but when he heard that the escort agency was going to be sold, his eyes lit up slightly.

The old escort master had accompanied him on that escort trip, and the result was that he was buried there. Now the escort agency is indeed under the control of the young escort master.

"It will cost a lot of money, right?" Xu Bai asked.

In his memory, the escort agency was quite large, and if he bought it, he would have to pay a lot of money.

He wanted to buy it, and after buying it, he could legitimately exchange it for copper coins.

Business people would prepare copper coins, and inns like that would prepare more copper coins.

I thought it would be very expensive, but unexpectedly Liu Er shook his head.

"As long as you pay, the young escort master will sell it, fifty taels of silver will do."

"How much? Fifty taels?" Xu Bai touched his chin and said, "He sells it so cheaply?"

In the Great Chu, one ingot of silver is ten taels, which means that only five ingots of silver are needed.

And the purchasing power of each tael of silver is equivalent to 500 yuan in the previous life, and one tael of silver can be exchanged for one hundred copper coins.

It is equivalent to five yuan for a copper coin.

Fifty taels of silver, in the previous life, would be only twenty-five thousand yuan.

The housing prices in the Great Chu Kingdom are not expensive.

But the Fulong Escort Agency occupies a large area, and it is really strange to sell it for only fifty taels of silver.

"It is quite cheap, but no one buys it. Some people came to see it, but for some reason, they left on the same day." Liu Er smiled bitterly.

When he talked about this, Liu Er's expression was not only bitter, but also a little unnatural.

He shuddered unconsciously when he thought of the abnormality of the escort agency in recent days.

The behavior of the young escort master is really weird. Many escorts have already thought of leaving, and even he can't stand it.

Staying in the escort agency every day, living a life of fear and anxiety, and being frightened, made him feel uneasy.

"The young escort master has also had a problem. Since not long ago, every night when we were all asleep, the young escort master would get up alone and walk around the escort agency."

"That night I met the young escort master and talked to him, but he ignored me. An old escort said that he might be possessed by evil spirits."

"The next day, when we went to ask the young escort master about his condition, he said that he was fine, but anyone with a discerning eye could see it."

When Liu Er talked about this, he couldn't help but tremble, with fear in his eyes.

Their escort masters are all inferior warriors. To put it bluntly, they only know some farming skills, otherwise they would not have been wiped out in the Tiger Village.

Where have they encountered such a situation?

Therefore, the people in the escort agency have been in a panic recently.

"Let's go and take a look." Xu Bai thought for a while and said.

If the escort agency can be taken down, the matter of the hidden weapons will be settled.

As for the abnormality that Liu Er just mentioned, how can we know if we don't go and take a look?

There will be some problems involved.

For example, if someone pays attention to the situation of the escort agency and knows that he has taken it over, they will definitely be suspicious.

But he has his own way. Once he takes it over, he will have a way to dispel his suspicion.

"Brother Xu, do you mean to take over the escort agency?" Liu Er heard what Xu Bai meant, and his eyes brightened slightly.

If that was the case, he hoped Xu Bai would buy the escort agency.

Since they parted ways with the Tiger Village, the escorts have all received some money, but they are still willing to do their old business.

As for other things, they can't do them. There is no land at home, let alone business.

After working as escorts for a few years, they can't do anything except delivering escorts. They can't rely on the money from the Tiger Village to live their whole lives.

Besides, if the reputation is bad, the escort agency will lose business, but the wages will not be reduced. How can they bear to give up?

If it weren't for the recent incident of the escort agency, they wouldn't have thought of leaving.

As for Xu Bai, Liu Er and other escorts, their views are very simple, just two words.

——Awe.

Until today, they still can't forget the scene in the Tiger Village at that time.

The figure held a long knife and chopped down the entire Tiger Village as if chopping melons and vegetables.

One person chopped down a mountain bandit village.

Life is so fragile in his hands, like an egg, it breaks easily.

Awe, but also hope that Xu Bai will stay in the escort agency.

This is a very contradictory emotion.

Awe is respect and fear for Xu Bai.

And hoping that Xu Bai will stay in the escort agency is a kind of follow-up behavior of the weak to the strong.

"Brother Xu, if you take over the escort agency, all the brothers are willing to follow you." Liu Er said excitedly.

Xu Bai smiled, looked at the location of Fulong Escort Agency, and said: "Let's go and have a look first."

"Okay, Brother Xu, please come this way." Liu Er's previous listless look disappeared, and he excitedly led the way.

The two walked through the streets and finally stopped in front of a house.

This house is different from the surrounding ones. It is majestic and there are two stone lions at the door.

When Liu Er led Xu Bai in, what came into view was a wide yard with various weapon racks.

Xu Bai's eyes did not linger on these things. He looked across the yard and saw a bench in the yard with a young man lying on it.

The young man had dark circles under his eyes and stared at the sky with lifeless eyes.
