He went to the dental shop first, hired two assistants to follow him, and went to a tea shop to buy some tea. Then I went to live in a small hotel and pretended that I was a tea merchant.
Then, Li Huaide found the yamen in charge of household registration in the small town.
He walked in very familiarly, after a glance, he patted a middle-aged man on the shoulder, and said affectionately: "Uncle, you are here! I was looking for you! Come on, let's have a glass of wine!"
The middle-aged man was Lao Zhang. When he looked back, he saw a young man he didn't know. He was a little puzzled, and was about to ask, "Who are you? Who is your uncle?"
Suddenly, I felt a sinking in my sleeve, and when I touched it, it looked like a silver ingot. Lao Zhang has a bottom line in his heart.
Lao Zhang followed Li Huaidera's posture and arrived outside the door. Fang sneered and said, "I have something to say, I don't want to have an extra nephew for no reason!"
Li Huaide smiled, took out a one hundred tael bank note, shook it and said, "You don't even recognize this nephew?"
A smile appeared on Lao Zhang's face, and he said, "I want to recognize this nephew, but it depends on what it is."
Li Huaide smiled and said: "This matter is difficult to say, but it is just a trivial matter for you."
"Oh? Come on, if it's appropriate, it doesn't matter if I recognize this relative." Lao Zhang laughed.
Li Huaide leaned into Lao Zhang's ear and said, "I have a relative who wants to start a small business in Yichun, but it's urgent and it's too late to go the normal way. Didn't I find you?"
Lao Zhang hesitated for a moment, he knew in his heart that it would probably not be a good thing to come to him suddenly. This matter sounds very simple, maybe there is some trap hidden in it.
Li Huaide whispered: "However, it is a businessman's identity and a guide, how big a deal can this be?"
Lao Zhang thought for a while: That's right, he's just a businessman, even if he finds out, it's nothing serious. You can get a hundred taels of silver for writing with a pen. Where can you find such a good thing
He responded with a smile.
Li Huaide breathed a sigh of relief, and stuffed the one hundred taels of silver notes and a note that had been written a long time ago into Lao Zhang's hand.
Lao Zhang looked at the identity and bank note written on the paper, and said with a smile: "Come and pick it up in an hour!"
For this kind of thing, he returned to the yamen and swiped his pen to settle it. But if you do it right away, it seems that this matter is too easy, and you seem to be too cheap. It took an hour for someone to feel that this matter was difficult to handle, and he had to work hard to be worthy of the one hundred taels of silver. This is also the practice in officialdom.
Li Huaide arched his hands and walked away with a smile.
This is the benefit of being a prince and prince, and he is very familiar with some things in the officialdom. If Hu Maud and other monsters would never have imagined that they could do this.
At most, it would only temporarily kill a person, take his identity, or make up an identity temporarily. Both of these approaches are easy to expose flaws.
There was an hour to wait, but Li Huaide was not idle, went to the carriage and horse market to buy a carriage and hired a driver. He took the driver to the hotel. He checked that it was still early, so he wandered around.
After wandering around for a while, he suddenly heard the whining of a fox.
Others couldn't understand the meaning of the fox's cry, but he could hear it clearly. The female fox was yelling sadly and angrily: "Shameless, you lied to me! Liar! Liar! You big ungrateful bastard!"
Hearing the voice, it was a girl, and it sounded familiar.
He couldn't help turning around and looking over.
Over there, a young herb picker with a red fox in a basket was asking people where the Taoist temple was.
The red fox was wrapped with an iron chain, and a lot of iron wires were wrapped around the chain, which made the chain look like thorns. The red fox was covered in blood from being pierced by the wire.
Li Huaide looked at it carefully and recognized it. The fox was named Hongxiu, and it was Hu Maode's seventeenth cousin.
From this look, the monster Hongxiu was obviously caught by the herbal picker, who wanted to go to the Taoist temple to receive the reward.
According to the rules in this world, anyone who catches or kills a monster can go to the Taoist temple to receive a reward as long as they have evidence.
Li Huaide was sweating, and felt a little embarrassed.
Memory told him that Hongxiu was a silly and cute monster who liked humans and helped them.
According to Hu Maode's memory, he can roughly guess the reason why Zhonghongxiu was caught by a mortal. It was nothing more than that she had helped the herb picker, but was deceived by him, and after being fainted by the medicine, she showed her real body, and then was caught.
He raised his nose and sniffed, smelling the smell of alcohol remaining in the red cuff. Can't help being speechless, Hongxiu especially likes to drink, but every time he drinks, he will get drunk.
Hongxiu doesn't usually get along with Hu Maode very much, she appreciates the legendary love in the human race, and doesn't like Hu Maode, a fox demon who takes women as his supplements.
Hongxiu is a relative by blood, and since he saw it, he should save her.
But intellectually, Li Huaide felt that something was wrong. No matter how relative she was, no matter how stupid she was, she was still a monster, and a dead monster was a good monster. She is stupid and cute now, and now she likes the human race, but what about in the future? Will she still be so cute after she has been through a lot? not necessarily!
From a human standpoint, it is justified to let her be handed over to the Taoists and then executed.
While Li Huaide was hesitating, a passer-by had already told the herb-gathering humane Taoism temple.
After the herb picker learned about it, he thanked the passerby repeatedly, and then strode excitedly towards Li Huaide.
This is the only way to go to the Taoist temple.
Walking in front of him, Hongxiu smelled Hu Maode's smell, and couldn't help but struggled and shouted: "Cousin, save me!"
It's a pity that her limbs and tail are tied with iron chains, and her mouth is tied with wire. His body was extremely dirty, with mud, his own blood, black dog blood, censer ashes, and some messy things that Li Huaide couldn't recognize.
Li Huaide looked at her impatiently.
Hongxiu was crying and looked at him eagerly.
Li Huaide hesitated.
Seeing that Li Huaide was ignoring her, and she was being carried away to go away, Hongxiu was desperate, and choked up: "Cousin, what did I do wrong, why did you ignore me when he wanted to kill me?"
Li Huaide sighed and reached out to stop the herbal picker.
The herbal picker stared at him suspiciously, and asked, "My lord, what are you stopping me for?"
Li Huaide said with a smile: "Excuse me, is this fox for sale?"
The herb collector looked at him in surprise, and said, "Master, this is a monster!"
Li Huaide smiled and said: "If it's not a monster, I don't want it!"
The herb collector asked curiously, "What do you want it for?"
Li Huaide smiled and said: "It's like this. My mother is going to celebrate her birthday soon. I think this fox has beautiful fur. I just want to make a scarf for her."
The herb picker was stunned, and said playfully, "My lord, I want to send this fox demon to the Taoist temple, and I can get a reward of three hundred taels of silver. How much can you pay?"
Li Huaide smiled and made a two gesture. This means two hundred taels.
The herbal picker became upset and said, "My lord, aren't you bullying people?"
