Chapter 411 - 411. Greedy Greed



A middle-aged man in an official uniform came up the stairs. The man looked very anxious and did not come to drink tea at all. He looked around the moment he got upstairs, and his gaze fell on Su Qing as he walked toward her. He asked Su Qing with some uncertainty,

“Madam, are you looking for Yin Ling?”

“Yes.”

Su Qing nodded.

“Did you bring it?”

“Yes, but I want to be bold to ask, what is the relationship between Madam and the Su family?”

The officer looked at Su Qing with a burning gaze. He had initially come for the hundred taels of silver, but now he wanted to get more.

“Sir, show me the silver bell first. If it’s what I’m looking for, I’ll give you an extra 100 taels as a thank you.”

Su Qing did not answer his question directly. She wanted to see if it was what she was looking for. As for this bailiff, as long as he was greedy, it would be easy to deal with him.

“Answer my question first.”

This officer also wanted money and to make a contribution, so he was compelled to ask Su Qing.

“They are my enemies. They stole my family’s property and fled to Luo City. This Silver Bell belongs to my daughter.”

Su Qing said it very calmly. She could easily make up a lie.

That silver bell was something worn by children. When this officer went to raid the Su residence, the other officers had already taken away all the valuable things. Only a pretty wooden box was left. The officer opened it and saw that it was a worthless black silver bell. No wonder no one wanted it. He tried to throw it away.

However, he didn’t throw it away when he thought of his newborn son.

A few days ago, he saw a notice on the street with this silver bell drawn on it. When he saw the reward of 100 taels written on it, he almost died of joy. He immediately went home and wanted to take the silver bell to the teahouse to exchange for money from the bounty.

He did not expect Luo City to be in chaos. The officers were arranged into teams and searched every house. They were busy from morning to night and did not have time to drink water. He passed by the teahouse several times and could not enter because his colleagues followed him.

Today, he finally found an excuse to go to the toilet and came to the teahouse to look for the person who offered the reward. He did not expect it to be the madam who had just bought the Su residence.

His brain began to work. He would have contributed if he could prove that Su Qing was a remnant of the Su Residence. He did not expect that she was an enemy.

He suspected that Su Qing was lying, but he didn’t think so when he saw the hatred in her eyes.

Su Qing took out two notes worth 100 taels and placed them on the table.

“Sir, the banknotes are here. 1 need to check if they are my daughter’s silver bells.”

“Alright.”

The officer’s eyes lit up when he saw the silver notes. He hurriedly took a sachet from his bosom and carefully took out a silver bell. This was a treasure worth two hundred taels of silver.

Su Qing took the silver bell and looked at the sun outside the window. She was familiar with this silver bell and recognized it at a glance. Even the black rope on it had not changed. The pattern was the same as in her memory. The other silver bells were all silver, but this silver bell was black all over.

“That’s right; it’s my daughter’s. You can take the money.”

Su Qing put away the silver bell and pushed the banknote to the officer.

The officer happily put away the banknotes and looked at Su Qing with calculating eyes.

“Madam, may 1 ask what this silver bell is for?”

Using two hundred taels to buy a broken silver bell? This thing must be precious. The officer regretted not asking for more money.

If he could get 1,000 taels, he would not be an official anymore. He would bring his wife and children back to his hometown to buy a house, buy land, and collect rent to enjoy life.

Su Qing was already impatient. Why did he ask so many questions when the money and goods were straightforward? She turned a deaf ear to the officer’s question, put away the silver bell, and walked downstairs. The waiter did not stop her after paying for the tea.

Seeing Su Qing ignoring him, the officer chased after her reluctantly. This was a piece of fat meat. How could he let it go after taking a bite? He had to have another taste of meat.

“Madam, I’ll give you the money but won’t sell the silver bell.”

The official stopped Su Qing and reached out to ask for the silver bell.

Su Qing looked at him coldly.

“Get lost.”

“How can you be so rude? The silver bell is mine. Do you want to snatch it if 1 don’t sell it?”

When the officer saw Su Qing cursing, he was instantly annoyed. He revealed his usual ferocious face and glared at Su Qing, stopping her from leaving.

Many people were in the teahouse, and Su Qing didn’t want to be entangled with him here. She said expressionlessly,

“Follow me, and I’ll give you another thousand taels.”

The officer was instantly happy when he saw that Su Qing had understood what he wanted. He immediately followed Su Qing with a smile on his face.

“Just want to say that madam is a generous person. It’s not in vain for me to run errands to bring it to you.”

Su Qing’s face was dark, and she did not say anything. Killing intent flashed in her dark eyes. After leaving the teahouse, Su Qing walked towards the back street. The officer saw that something was wrong and stopped her.

“Madam, this is not the way to the Su residence. Where do you want to take me?”

“Follow me in to get the banknote.”

Su Qing said lightly and continued to walk into the alley. The officer looked at the alley and hesitated. He was a little afraid, but 1,000 taels was a huge temptation. Moreover, it was a woman. He had a saber with him. What was there to be scared of?

He hesitated momentarily as he saw Su Qing walk into the alley without looking back. It was as if she didn’t care if he caught up with her. Perhaps she was trying to get rid of him? Thinking of this, the officer couldn’t care less about his caution and chased her into the alley.

As soon as he entered the alley, he felt a strong wind blowing against his face. It was too late to dodge. A sleeve arrow pierced deeply into his forehead, followed by another arrow piercing his throat. Then the official fell to the ground; he died with his eyes wide open.

Su Qing took back the two hundred taels of silver he gave the officer. She then took out the corpse-dissolving powder and melted the officer’s body.

“This is the result of your greed.”

After dealing with the greedy official without anyone noticing, Su Qing walked out from the other end of the alley. Almost no pedestrians were on the street, only the officials running around. It gave people the feeling that they were strong on the outside but weak on the inside. They were relying on shouting to ease the fear in their hearts.

Su Qing had gotten what she wanted, so she did not need to stay in Luo City any longer. She went to three restaurants and bought a lot of food and wine for them to send to the Su residence. After a good meal, they will return to Mo City tonight.

When Su Qing returned to the Su Residence, Ji Shuisheng had also returned from outside. He was dressed in black with his face covered and large blood patches on his clothes.

“Qing’er, today we killed over ten soldiers of the Wan Clan Army.”

Ji Shuisheng took off his mask, his eyes flashing with excitement.

Su Qing nodded and said to Ji Shuisheng,

“Get ready to leave Luo City tonight.”

He stopped changing when Ji Shuisheng heard Su Qing mention leaving Luo City.

“Have you found the person you’re looking for?”

Su Qing looked at Ji Shuisheng with a smile.

“I found it and got what I wanted.”

“Is that so?”

Ji Shuisheng was happy for Su Qing. He also wanted to see what made Su Qing come to Luo City and report to the teahouse daily for so long.

“What were you looking for? Can I take a look?”
