Chapter 612: Chapter 612, Clear (1 more)
Duobao’s thought flashed by.
Ye Hang had already laughed, "I didn’t expect Miss Xie to have such capable people by her side. Today, Ye has truly seen something new!"
Ye Hang pressed against his wound.
He felt fortunate to have made this deal with Xie Zhinuan, for if he truly had to kidnap someone himself, it’s possible that the entire Night Pavilion would be jeopardized.
"..." Xie Zhinuan chuckled lightly, "What are you doing here? Isn’t it not yet time for our appointment?"
"I’ve come to deliver the silver note to Miss Xie!"
Three hundred thousand taels in silver notes, three with a face value of one hundred thousand each.
When Xie Zhinuan received them, she inspected them carefully.
They were real, not counterfeit silver notes.
Such large denomination notes were differently made than those of smaller denominations.
They were much more refined, with many hidden features.
"I’ll accept the silver note. When the appointed day arrives, just act according to the plan. I only hope you won’t come here again in the next few days!" Xie Zhinuan said gravely.
She was not too keen on having too much contact with Ye Hang.
After all, they were both in it for the money; it was merely a business relationship, with no need to get too close.
"Then I will take my leave!" After Ye Hang spoke, he leapt into the darkness of the night.
It was only then that the simple-minded girl asked Xie Zhinuan, "Miss, what are you cooperating with him on?"
"Let’s talk inside!"
Xie Zhinuan called the simple-minded girl into the house.
After hesitating for a moment, Duobao also followed them inside.
Learning that Xie Zhinuan was going to cooperate with Ye Hang and be kidnapped to serve a wealthy young master, the simple-minded girl was a bit surprised.
Duobao was shocked.
Just for silver? She...
He wanted to say something, but given his position, it didn’t seem appropriate.
"Miss..." the simple-minded girl called out softly.
"Miss, you really don’t need to take this risk!" she said with worry, subtly advising.
Xie Zhinuan shook her head, "Simple-minded girl, do you know how much silver this is?"
"..." The simple-minded girl was silent.
"Three hundred thousand taels. And do you know how much an ordinary person makes in a lifetime? It’s impressive if they can earn a thousand taels. Three hundred thousand taels..." Xie Zhinuan sighed.
"With this sum of silver, I can do many, many things. I can open many more braised meat shops, buy a lot more shops, and even acquire a mountain to grow various medicinal herbs!"
"Since there’s an opportunity to get this sum of silver, fortune favors the bold. I can protect myself, and with you all backing me up, there is nothing to fear!"
"Moreover, if I didn’t take this deal and it really came down to fighting, it would be a lose-lose situation. Simple-minded girl, isn’t that so?"
Xie Zhinuan spoke gently.
Because it was the simple-minded girl, she explained so much.
If it were just Duobao, she wouldn’t bother to explain.
But some things, she had to clarify with the simple-minded girl to prevent her worries.
After listening, the simple-minded girl thought carefully before nodding her head, "Have you planned everything out, Miss? How are we going to proceed? And where should we go to rescue you?"
Xie Zhinuan thought seriously for a moment, "At that time, I will carry some spices on me. You all bring Routuan and the gray wolf..."
After glancing at the simple-minded girl, Xie Zhinuan smiled and said, "Actually, I can protect myself too!"
If it had been last year, she certainly wouldn’t have dared to say such things. But at this moment, she could say it with confidence; escaping or fighting back would be easy.
And three hundred thousand taels of silver...
Last year at this time, she didn’t have a single wen in her pocket, and even owed money for medical treatment.
"I do trust in your abilities, Miss. It’s not that I fear the ten thousand possibilities, but the just in case. It’s still better to be cautious!"
Three hundred thousand taels of silver also made the simple-minded girl envious.
Besides, with Xie Zhinuan’s character, once she decides on something, she might not readily change her mind. When she accepted the silver notes, there was no longer a possibility for change.
