Chapter 490
"Look at your brothers, you should not get up for the time being. In this way, I will take you to have breakfast first. How about it? Let's arrange them later?" The housekeeper is very good at doing things, and avoids Zhang Xi's question in a slight way. Maybe he misunderstood Zhang Xi's words into another meaning.
Follow the butler to another small quiet courtyard, and on the stone table in the small courtyard were placed with various exquisite snacks.
Zhang Xi walked over, took the hot tea poured by a girl next to her, took a sip, picked up the chopsticks, and ate the snacks on the table.
He was not worried at all whether anything would be put into his heart.
I had nothing to do after I finished the meal, and the wine they drank last night was fine, so there would be no problem with breakfast this morning.
"Sir, here is a box of snacks that can be kept and taken away. It is the city lord's wish." The butler took a small box after a while, came to Zhang Xi's side, and handed it to him.
Zhang Xi took the small box and lifted the weight. It was a little light. She put it on the table and wanted to open it directly.
The butler waved his hand and the maid next to him turned around in a familiar way.
Units are calculated in "ten thousand".
When Zhang Xi saw the silver coins inside, her pupils contracted.
He thought that the amount might not be small, after all, for the food and banquet girls last night, they should not be too stingy.
I didn't expect it to be so big.
It would make sense if they were asked to do something to give this amount.
Just after coming, I gave such a large amount directly. This is a bit unreasonable.
Or, there is a lot of flow here.
There is another possibility that they have a ghost in their hearts.
"Thank you, I accepted it."
Zhang Xi touched it with his hand, and the box entered his storage ring directly.
He had nothing to do with it. Even if there was anything wrong with this city lord's mansion, it had nothing to do with him. Don't let the money you brought to your door on your own initiative be useless.
Without cultivation, he doesn't have to talk about spending money on the realm space for the time being.
It was because of his lack of cultivation that on the road to further advancement within the Zhaoye Legion, money became his tool to advance.
Judging from the style of the city lord's mansion in Wutong City, from the fact that the guard leader and his group fell soon, the form inside the Ye Legion was very good.
This "big good" means that it is very good for him.
If the upper and lower parts are decent and airtight, wouldn't it be difficult for him to climb up?
Going back to his own acre of three-point land, if you want to be successful, you need to operate.
Some things cannot be moved, such as military pay.
The soldiers only have the energy to work after they are full, and the fastest way to get promoted is military merit.
It turns out that if you can't move, it will become a handle for others if you move.
Foreign ones, your own ones, this is the capital for your own movement.
"Where are my brethren?"
Zhang Xi exposed his greed.
"This... understand, prepare immediately."
The butler had no intention of preparing for Zhang Xi's guards. In his opinion, as long as Zhang Xi spoke, they had to obey the orders.
The joy of last night was enough to make them willing.
When he saw the greed in Zhang Xi's eyes, he understood that he still thought it was too little and wanted another one.
After a while, the housekeeper brought another box over.
This box is not as good as before, and it has no wood fragrance. It is a wood without smell. Naturally, the portion inside no longer starts with a "ten thousand".
Zhang Xi didn't look at much, so she accepted it directly.
Greedy is moderate, and there are still questions to ask later.
He could leave without asking anything, and the guard leader would definitely ask for his companions.
"Thanks."
Zhang Xi still thanked him, and the money he picked up was thanked with a knife.
"Sir, do you have any other matters in your home besides congratulating the master's birthday?"
The gift was delivered, Zhang Xi was happy, and the butler tried to test his voice.
"Of course there is something wrong. I heard that a corpse made of a bronze statue appeared on your congratulatory gift yesterday." Zhang Xi put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hand and said slowly.
Since the question is asked, the money cannot be taken in vain.
If you have nothing to do, you will come and take such a large sum of money. Even if the city lord's mansion has money, you will not be able to withstand such plunder.
Why did the missing guard disappear? Whether his bronze statue has anything to do with the Wutong City Lord's Mansion has to do with him. From the moment the guards concealed that he was carrying out some kind of mission, he did not have much recognition of them.
One of the tasks of escorting yourself may also be to secretly perform other tasks under the guise of escorting yourself, and to make a proof of absenteeism by yourself.
"Is this related to you?" The housekeeper was curious about the true identity of Zhang Xi and others.
Yesterday they came in on the grounds of passing by, and now they asked them about the bronze statue again, which forced him to be cautious about Zhang Xi's real purpose in coming here.
"Of course, we are here to investigate that case." Zhang Xi did not hide it. He didn't ask, and he would ask when the guard leader woke up.
Furthermore, they were not here to have fun, but came here to check the reasons for the disappearance of a guard.
He originally wanted to indirectly attack these guards and follow his other tasks, but he did not indirectly attack. He happened to hear the news from the city guard at the door and connected the bronze statue with the knife guard to it.
"Check, that case?"
The butler savored Zhang Xi's words carefully.
"Yes." Zhang Xi changed his identity. Before coming, he asked several guards to change their clothes, which was a certain difference from the disappearing Xiaoliu, so as not to alarm the enemy.
So at this time, no matter what he said, as long as Xiao Liu's identity as a group of people was not exposed, his words would not be able to be verified.
On the birthday of the birthday, the bronze statue is not bad.
But a bronze statue made of a corpse has completely changed.
If it was an unexpected accident, the people in the City Lord's Mansion would also be anxious to figure out what was going on.
But when he talked about that matter, the butler seemed to be a little unwilling to mention that matter. He almost knew that he was coming for that matter, but he didn't say he was happy to himself?
At this point, Zhang Xi repeated it and explained in detail his purpose: "The bronze statue, also a member of the elite camp, was ordered to investigate a secret case and suddenly disappeared. It happened to be heard that a bronze statue body that was dressed very similar to him appeared here, so he came over to confirm whether it was this person."
"Where have you put that bronze statue? Can you take me to see it?"
