The new book of the burning prairie star

Chapter 81 Just give the money to my son

"Xiao Ran, let's find an inn to stay in first, have a good sleep and refresh ourselves, and then go around the city." After Yang Biao finished talking to Qin Xiaoran, he turned around and told Dong Pi to find an inn.

Dongpi naturally went to Xingwang Inn, which Boss Wang often visited before he came to the city.

"Master, we're here." Dongpi drove the car to the entrance of Xingwang Inn and turned to say to Yang Biao who was in the car.

"Well, go park the car," Yang Biao tidied his clothes, then led Qin Xiaoran out of the car, "Xiaoran, are you hungry?"

"Fortunately, I had some pastries and snacks in the carriage." Qin Xiaoran was not hungry, but she had been sitting in the carriage for a long time and felt a little uncomfortable. "Yang Biao, let's book a room. I want to lie down first."

"Okay, let's go." Yang Biao saw the fatigue on her face. This ancient means of transportation was indeed very slow to use. In modern times, it would take five days and six nights to drive to every corner of China.

"Sir, how many rooms would you like to book?" Seeing Yang Biao and his group coming in, looking exhausted, the waiter came over to greet them.

"Waiter, we need three connected Tianzi rooms." Yang Biao took out ten taels of silver from his pocket and put them on the counter. He felt uncomfortable because of the stickiness on his body. "First, get us some hot water to take a bath. It's dusty all the way here."

"Okay, sir, please wait a moment. I will show you the room first and then bring water to your room." The waiter looked at the silver on the counter and his attitude immediately became much more respectful.

"Okay, lead the way." Yang Biao nodded and asked Fugui to take all the things from the carriage.

"Please wait a moment, sir. Hot water will be brought to you soon." The waiter bowed respectfully to Yang Biao and went to prepare hot water.

"Xiao Ran, let me help you dry your hair." Yang Biao finished taking a shower in Fugui's room and returned to his room. He saw Qin Xiaoran sitting at the dressing table drying her hair, so he wanted to help.

"Well, okay!" Qin Xiaoran was not polite and handed over the towel in her hand. Yang Biao took the towel and helped her wipe the water off her hair.

"Yang Biao, do you really want to buy a shop in the provincial capital?" Qin Xiaoran raised her little face and asked him. The shops in the provincial capital are not cheap.

"Well, I'm brewing wine, and I wanted to make more money by producing and selling it myself." Yang Biao did not hide his intention to come here, and he also wanted to open a cloth shop in this city.

"Butler Sun, please, we really can't sell it for such a low price," the two men were talking when they suddenly heard a loud noise coming from downstairs of the inn. They looked at each other and went downstairs together to see what happened.

"This housekeeper Sun relies on the power of Prefect Xia to rob and plunder like this all the time." Some of the onlookers were indignant.

"Oh, how can he rely on the power of Magistrate Xia?" Looking at the man lying on the ground and dying after being beaten by many people, some outsiders don't understand how a small housekeeper from an unknown family can have such a connection with the government?

"Judging from your accent, you are from another place, right?" asked the person next to him. Otherwise, how could he not know who this Butler Sun is?

"Yes, I am from Jiangyin County, and I am here to visit relatives. I wonder whose family this steward Sun is from, and why he is so arrogant and domineering." The man asked the people around him. How dare he beat someone up in broad daylight? He is not afraid of being arrested by the government at all.

"This Butler Sun is of no ordinary background. His name is Sun Xuanli. He is the nephew of Xia Zhaofeng, the prefect of Guangping Prefecture, and also the butler of Xia Zhaofeng's mansion. Who dares to offend him?" The man whispered in his ear, then retracted his gaze, not daring to look at Butler Sun again, for fear that he would get into trouble.

Yang Biao was standing right next to them, so he heard everything the man said clearly. Sun Xuanli had a protective umbrella, so he dared to act so recklessly.

"Old man, you have three days to clean up this place for me, otherwise you'll be in trouble!" Sun Xuanli walked up to the man lying on the ground and kicked him hard, then left with his men.

"Old man, are you okay?" Yang Biao hurried to help the beaten man on the ground. He looked badly beaten. "Fugui, come and carry the old man to see the doctor."

"Hey, Dongpi, come and help me. I'll carry you on my back." The two had been to the city many times with Boss Wang and were very familiar with it. With Dongpi's help, Fugui carried the old man on his back and took Yang Biao to the nearby clinic.

"This old man has three broken ribs, wounds all over his body, and his internal organs are bleeding. It's clear that he was beaten to death." The doctor at the clinic was furious after the examination. Who could be so cruel as to be so harsh on an old man?

The apprentice of the clinic whispered something in the doctor's ear, and the doctor stopped cursing and sighed. Xia Zhaofeng was so powerful that even the housekeeper in the mansion was bullying him. The lives of ordinary people were worthless. "The old man has been beaten up. Let's inform his family to prepare for his funeral."

"It's incurable?" Yang Biao found it a little hard to accept. If only he were a surgeon, he could perform surgery to stop the bleeding of the old man.

"It's not that it's incurable, it's that it can't be cured." The doctor was a little frustrated. The old man was seriously injured and there was nothing he could do.

"Young master, come here, I want to say something to you." The old man waved weakly at Yang Biao, and everyone else dispersed. This was considered his last words, and it didn't sound good.

"Young Master, I have a shop that I want to sell to you. Just give the money to my son." He took out the contract he had written earlier, which had been signed by his three friends. He had already thought about it. He could not keep his house and shop, but even if he sold it at a low price, he did not want to let Sun Xuanli get it. "Young Master, just write your name and we can handle the transfer."

"Take it quickly," the old man became a little agitated when he saw that Yang Biao was reluctant to take the contract. He started coughing and coughed up a large amount of blood.

"Doctor, come here quickly." Yang Biao was so scared that he shouted for the doctor to come and save him. He was suffering from internal bleeding.

"Young master, I beg you, please take this contract." The old man stopped coughing after being given an injection by the doctor. He knew that this would bring trouble to the young man in front of him, but he really had no other choice. His family needed to live, and his grandson also needed money for his studies. He could only apologize to this young man who looked kind.

"Okay, I'll take it. Old man, where does your son live? I'll ask him to come over and pay for the shop." Yang Biao was afraid that his emotions would fluctuate again, causing him to cough and hurt his body again.

"He has gone out of town. You can find my grandson. His name is Qi Mingyao, and he studies at Tianshi Academy." The old man was so weak that he spoke incoherently.

"Sign your name first!" The old man had lived a lifetime, so how could he not see that the young man was delaying tactics? I'm sorry, don't blame me for repaying kindness with enmity. People are selfish and can only think about their descendants first.

Yang Biao had no choice but to borrow pen, ink and ink pad from the clinic. He signed the old man's contract without even reading the contents.

The old man closed his eyes in satisfaction, and then he felt his whole body was cold, "I'm so cold!"

Yang Biao covered him with a quilt. Although he was not a doctor, he knew that the old man might be bleeding heavily. He had to find the old man's family members as soon as possible, otherwise he might not be able to see him for the last time.

"Xiao Ran, Dong Pi stay here. I'll take you and Xiao Lian back to the inn first. I'll ask the old man's children to come and take care of him." Yang Biao sent Qin Xiao Ran to her room. Fearing that she would be scared alone, he said to Xiao Lian, "You two can sleep with her. Fugui, go drive the car and follow me to Tianshi Academy."
