Chapter 236, I regret it

Time flies, and it will be the day of the house test in the blink of an eye.

During this period, Datong City was really lively. Candidates from the top ten counties under Datong Prefecture gathered in Datong City to wait for the government examination three days later.

The major hotels and inns in Datong City are overcrowded, and the business is booming, and the mouths of those shopkeepers are not close.

In the afternoon, the sun was shining lazily on people.

Compared with the bustling outside, the Ma Chamber of Commerce is still very quiet. Especially in this small courtyard where Lingxiao Tower lives, there is almost no noise.

After practicing in Lingxiao Tower, he came out of the room and saw Li Jin busy putting all kinds of dishes on the table.

Ma Xiaoxiao treats him really well. Needless to say, the place where she lives is also rude to eat on it. If anything is good, let them eat.

Looking at this table of beautiful food, Ling Xiaolou knew that no ten taels of snowflake silver would not come down.

"Brother Ling, it's time to eat!" Li Jin greeted Ling Xiaolou and said.

Ling Xiaolou sat at the Eight Immortals Table and looked up and asked, "Where is Xu Shao?"

"He went to the Renhuai Guild Hall and said that he would not come back for lunch, so we didn't have to wait for him." Li Jindao.

"Hmm." Ling Xiaolou and Li Jingang had lunch, and the petite and exquisite Qinglan walked into the courtyard.

"Ling Shao, please persuade our young lady, she..." Qinglan was about to cry.

"What's wrong?" Ling Xiaolou asked doubtfully.

He finished the last course of treatment for Ma Xiaoxiao in the morning. Ma Xiaoxiao was lively and her body had returned to its peak state of 70% or 80%. It's nothing serious.

"Miss...Miss said that she would lead the caravan to go deep into the desert to trade..." Qinglan cried in a low voice.

She really didn't understand why their young lady did this. In the past, when the master was there, she never personally led the caravan into the desert.

Although Miss has some strength, is she a woman after all?

A woman led the caravan deep into the desert. What if something happens?

Doesn't she know that the third master of the Ma family is staring at him? If something happens to her, the Ma Chamber of Commerce will give up to others...

Ling Xiaolou nodded when he heard the words and whispered, "Don't worry, let's listen to her thoughts first."

After getting along with Ma Xiaoxiao for a period of time, Ling Xiaolou knew that Ma Xiaoxiao was a weak-looking woman with strong bones.

To put it bluntly, this kind of person is born with the material of a strong woman.

So, he was not surprised at all when he heard such news.

Entering Ma Xiaoxiao's courtyard, the guards became more strict, with 40 or 50 guards guarding the courtyard.

With some guidance from Li Jin during this period, these people's guarding ability has greatly increased to ensure that there are no dead corners in the courtyard.

Even if the assassin of the killer gate attacks again, it is impossible to enter the courtyard easily.

This gives Ling Xiaolou time to react. As long as these guards can resist for a minute, Ling Xiaolou will appear.

This is the style of Ling Xiaolou. Since Ma Xiaoxiao has been promised, it is necessary to ensure the safety of Ma Xiaoxiao.

The guards saw the appearance of Lingxiao Tower and bowed respectfully to Lingxiao Tower.

The reputation of the four young master of the Ling family is extraordinary in Datong City. The most important thing is that Lingxiaolou taught them the guard methods that Li Jin taught them, which benefited these guards a lot.

Practitioners respect the strong most. Coincidentally, Ling Xiaolou is the strong in this regard.

Through the main hall, Ling Xiaolou gently knocked on the door of the side hall and heard Ma Xiaoxiao's gentle voice, so he opened the door and walked in.

Qinglan automatically stood outside, closed the door, and quietly waited for Lingxiao Tower to successfully persuade Ma Xiaoxiao to dispel the crazy idea.

Ma Xiaoxiao is tall, with fair skin and beautiful face... It is worthy of being a beautiful flower in Datong City.

She was quiet and looked cold. When she saw Ling Xiaolou coming in, a smile bloomed on her face and had an amazing feeling.

"Did Qing Lan tell you?" Ma Xiaoxiao asked playfully that she was very safe and relaxed in front of Ling Xiaolou.

Ling Xiaolou nodded and asked, "Do you have to go?"

"You have to go!" Ma Xiaoxiao's face showed a decisive color.

"Can you tell me the reason?"

"Because... I have reached the point where I have to go!" Ma Xiaoxiao smiled bitterly and said, "Ling Shao, do you know that in the past three months, our Ma Chamber of Commerce has suffered heavy losses!"

"Once a month, two transactions were looted by horse thieves out of the city. It was finally successful once and half of the profits were squeezed by the Yuanmeng people."

paused and sighed, "My Ma Chamber of Commerce has reached an extremely dangerous situation. If I can't turn the tide, the foundation left by my father will be destroyed. Do you think I can not be in a hurry, can I not go?"

Ling Xiaolou's heart hurts. How old is Ma Xiaoxiao? It's really pitiful to bear such a heavy burden at such an age when she is two years older than her.

"Your Ma Chamber of Commerce and Yuanmeng people have been doing business for some years. How can such a serious incident happen?" Ling Xiaolou asked.

Ma's Chamber of Commerce is one of the largest chamber of commerce in Jinxi Province, and its private force is also very strong. How can it be plundered by horse thieves one after another?

"Yes, I'm also strange. The armed forces of our Ma Chamber of Commerce are among the best in Jinxi Province. Unless several major horse thieves unite, they dare not attack us at all." Ma Xiaoxiao said proudly.

"But if there are inside thieves in the team, then I'm not sure..." Ma Xiaoxiao said with hatred.

Ling Xiaolou narrowed his eyes and whispered, "Can you be sure?"

"It's eight or nine!" Ma Xiaoxiao couldn't help shaking his head and said, "These three transactions are arranged by my third uncle. The loss of these three transactions alone has reached a million taels of snowflake silver..."

Ling Xiaolou was really shocked. The Ma Chamber of Commerce is worthy of being a large chamber of commerce, and the transaction volume is calculated in millions of taels.

Thinking about what he and Lu Lin did in Renhuai City, it was just a small fight and couldn't get on the stage.

"So you are going to go to Saiwai in person?" Ling Xiaolou asked.

"Not bad!" Ma Xiaoxiao got up and said with a serious look, "The main transactions of our Ma Chamber of Commerce are concentrated outside the plug, and this road cannot be given up anyway. I want to keep it firmly in my hands."

"When will you leave?" Ling Xiaolou asked.

Ma Xiaoxiao is worthy of being a strong woman. This has nothing to do with her age and personality. Ma Xiaoxiao is born to be a strong woman.

"I'll leave after the trial!" Ma Xiaoxiao said with burning eyes.

"How long will it take?"

"A round trip, if it goes well, it will take a month."

Ling Xiaolou was silent for a long time before he said, "I happen to have time. I'll accompany you then."

Ma Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "I knew Ling Shao would help me."

"I happen to be looking for something outside." Ling Xiaolou said.

He is not lying to Ma Xiaoxiao. He really wants to go deep into the desert to find a magical animal that is very important to him.

"Can you tell me what it is?"

"A very fierce mosquito."

"Then Ling Shao can choose the right place. Yuanmeng people are good at raising all kinds of animals, and inevitably there are many mosquitoes. I believe Ling Shao is worth the trip."

"Well, I know. In addition, I will make a list. Please help me collect all the materials." Ling Xiaolou said.

"No problem."

"In addition, Qinglan is worried about you. You'd better talk to her..."

"I will."

Lingxiaolou returned to the small courtyard and saw Xu Limin sitting under the pavilion with a solemn look. I don't know what he was thinking.

"Brother Xu, it's still so early today, are you back?" Ling Xiaolou walked into the pavilion and greeted Xu Limin.

Xu Limin looked up at Ling Xiaolou and said solemnly, "Brother Ling, you may be in trouble."

Ling Xiaolou was stunned when he heard the words and smiled, "Who is looking for trouble with me?"

"I don't know who bothered you." Xu Limin couldn't help shaking his head and said, "But someone said that you will not be able to pass this government test."

"Is it?" Ling Xiaolou looked indifferent.

"Ling Shao, don't be careless." Xu Limin looked at the appearance of Lingxiao Tower and was immediately anxious.

At this time, Ling Xiaolou is not in a hurry? Is it true that the emperor is not in a hurry?

"It's useless to be in a hurry now. I don't even know who I want to target." Ling Xiaolou shook his head.

He sighed in his heart. It seemed that the limelight had been too much during this period. There were too many people who had offended him. Some people couldn't see it and planned to trouble him.

"I have sent a message to Yue Shao and asked him to help find out the news. I believe there will be news soon." Xu Limin's eyes flashed.

"Brother Xu, thank you." Ling Xiaolou said seriously that Xu Limin was really interesting.

"Now is not the time to talk about this. Let's wait for Yue Shao's news."

"Hum... If I find out who stabbed him in the back, I will kill him!" Li Jin, who was beside him, showed a fierce look when he heard the words.

Ling Xiaolou's kindness to him is as heavy as a mountain. It can be said that without Ling Xiaolou and Lu Lin, there would be no him now.

How can he be indifferent when he sees someone aiming at Lingxiaolou to destroy his future? He wants to fight with people.

When Ling Xiaolou, Xu Limin and Li Jin were having dinner, Huangfu strode in. Seeing several people eating, he didn't mind. He sat down and grabbed his chopsticks and began to eat.

Ling Xiaolou and several people didn't ask. When the food was almost done, Huangfu wiped his mouth and stared at Ling Xiaolou with a smile and said, "Ling Shao, you have been very beautiful these days. Do you regret it now?"

"I regret it." Ling Xiaolou nodded solemnly and sighed, "I really regret making friends with you, Huang Fuyue."

"You..." Huang Fuyue was suddenly unhappy. What is this? Once upon a time, someone dared to talk to him like this?

"Am I wrong?" Ling Xiaolou hummed softly and said, "The reason why I caused so many things, which one has nothing to do with you?"

"This..." Huang Fuyue suddenly choked. Ling Xiaolou was right. These things were more or less related to him.

"Yue Shao, what did you hear?" Xu Limin saw the two tit-for-tat and quickly changed the topic. At this time, it is not the time to quarrel.
